WASHINGTON WAITS.
Relief Asked Of the Bonded Warehouse
Tax on Behalf Of the Boston Mer.
chanfs-MeetiDg Of Prominent
Educators.

WASHINGTON, November 13.-Tht
Secretary Of the Treasury has been asked
by Boston merchants for relief from the
additional charge Of ten per cent. on
goods in bonded warehouses remaining
there more than year. The Secretary
replied that he had no power, but II
any sufferers by the fire allowed Their
goods to remain beyond that time, be
would recommend to Congress that that
charge be remitted.
The President has had a consultation
with the Secretary at the Treasury De-
partment this morning.
A meeting of prominent educators,
including Generals Eaton and Van Bu-
rem, Mr.. Spafford, Librarian of Congress,
and Mr.. Harvey, Commissioner of Edu-
cation Of Ohio, was held to-day, 10 adopt
the best method Of having the eduea-
tiOnal system of this country represent
ed in Vienna. 1t was resolved that
there should be sent to Vienna full re-
ports embracing the educational statis-
iiCs, together with the school reports Of
the States, cities and towns, law schools,
medical schools, colleges and universi-
ties of this country, and that there also
be erected on the ground assigned to the
United States buildings to represent
American schools in full operation, with
chairs, desks, maps, and other eppurte-
nances Of the institution.

+" METHODICALn REPORTING.
The Fate Of the Scamp who Wrote a
Joke and Printed IL.

Apropos of the recent change in the
style Of the Missouri Republican, one of
our exchanges relates the fol-
lowing. As we have seen the
Republican Of a later date, and
find no contradiction of the story it
must be true:
For years past the Republican has ex-
cited remark by its strict adherence to
the old rules regarding newspaper man
agement, one feature being the careful
exclusion Of light, spicy matter, its ar
ticles being characterized by straight
forward recital of facts written up in a
style somewhat similar to that of the
London Times. This was especi-
ally the case with respect to the
local page, the Republican re-
porter being instructed to make
their reports Of local matters full and
complete without any attempt to enliven
the dry detail OF facts. This being a
well-known characteristic of the paper,
a lively reporter of the St Louis Journal
got off little joke at its expense last
summer. He said that at a late hour
the night before, a Republican reporter
dashed off local item in a spicy man
ner. He was naturally a funny man,
and having been on the paper for years
without an opportunity to give vent to
his talents in this line, he declared that
he would get Off a joke if he died for it.
The item passed the local editor un-
noticed, and was not discovered until
several sheets had been struck of,
| but the moment it was found that a
joke had crept into the columns of the
Republican "a thing which had not
occurred before for years., the managing
editor, Mr.. Hyde, was sent for, a solemn
| consultation held, and the instant death
OF the luekless reporter determined upon.
No time was lost, but the unfortunate
man was hurried off 10 the river and
Immediately drowned.
The day after this story appeared in
the Journal, the writer lat that time
connected with the st. Louis press) met
Brown, a Republican reporter, on the
street. Brown was fair sample of the
Republican reporters-painstaki me-
thOdical, industrious and perfectly relia-
bic. Brown" said the writer, " 1t
seems rather hard that you Republican
folks should drown a poor devil of a re-
/ porter merely because he got of a little
/ joke when he found it impossible to re-
sist the temptation
! Now, B." responded Brown, SOL
emnly, "there is not a word Of truth in
that journal stOry-I know there is not,
for am one of the last men to leave
the Office in the morning, and il one Of
the reporters had been drowned, should
have known it; but as it is, the first 1
heard Of the story was its coming out in
| the ,Jo1rpdl.n

FRANCE.

PARIS, November 13.-The message of
President Thiers was received by the
National Assembly to-day. The mes
sage begins with thanks to God for the
the progress of the work of reparation
and general prosperity OF the country.
Referring to the success Of the last loan
asked by the government, it says that
the whole available capital Of the COM
mercial world was offered to France.
Half the loan has been realized in three
months. Germany has been paid eight
hundred million francs ON the war In
demnity, aud viii receive two hun
dred million francs more in De-
cember. The budget shows a deficit
Of one hundred and thirty-two million
francs for the past fiscal year, but the
estimates show that an equilibrium of
expenditure and revenue Will be restored
IN 1873, and that a surplus may be
looked for in 1874. Allusion Is made to
the disasters of the late war, the cruel
dismemberment of the country, the
frightful burthen it has had to bear,
and the establishment Of the Republic.
All these things, suddenly bursting on a
surprised and disheartened country,
might have resulted in irreparable DIS
aster if order had not been maintained.
A forcihle appeal to the Theoretical
Representatives not to spare even exces-
sive sacrifices for order In their own in
terests. Events have given them the
Republic. The Republic exists as the
! legal government. An attempt at any
different form Of government would
/ lead 10 g most terrible revolution.
/ The President deprecates any
/ formal proclamation Of the Re
public by the Assembly, The better
I policy would be to impress on the in
stitutions Of the country the feature Of
conservative republicanism. The Re-
public must be conservative, otherwise
1t cannot exist. The absolute need OF
| France Is rep0se. The mass might live
| through q few days Of agitation.
After frightening others, it fears
itself and falls into the arms Of an
adventurer, travelling the sad aud
humiliating journey from anarchy
to despOtism and from despOtism to an
archy. The slightest fault Is sufficient
TO wreck the republic. France, orderly
and strong, inspires confidence with for
eign powers, who desire, above all, lust
equilibrium; France, ii she chooses not
to isolate herzelE may become sur
roanded by trusting and useful friends.
To the Assembly is left the ini-
tiation Of constitutional measures.
The decisive moment has arrived
for the work. The President promises
Difference and corporation, and Jon-
cludes by invoking God 70 bless the
work Of the Assembly, and render COM
plete and durable a consummation
which has not been attained
since the commencement of the
century. The message was well received
by the Left, 10 whom II gives
great satisfaction. N, DeKerdrel, Con-

broad silk-weavers in Tilt & Sons PhR-
nix Nill in this city, the largest estab-
lishment ofthe kind in the United States,
quit work to-day, the proprietors insist
ing on q reduction Of twenty per cent. in
their wages. The strikers number two
hundred Inen and fifty apprentices,
whose wages aggregate about three thou
sand dollars a week. There are one
hundred and fifty broad silk-weavers in
other mills, but their wages have not
been cut down as yet. The silk trade of
the city, employing four thousand per-
sons, is excited, as it is believed that
the twenty per cent. reduction will be-
come general. The New York, Hartford
and Green Point Trade Unions are in
communication with the strikers.
