A surfeit OF Confederate Archives.
Those four yellow trunks of documents
which the federal administration recently pur-
chased from Colonel Pickett, seem to be but as
the first few drops preceding shower OF Con-
federate archives whose holders are eager to
negotiate for sales IF we were to Judge from
Jacob Thompson's report there would be just
reason to doubt that the lot was worth the
greenbacks paid for it. Yet as Colonel
Pickett asserts that its lists of rebels will ena-
BILE the Claims Commission to check threatened
raids on the Treasury, we must hope the out
lay will prove profitable. But does not this
purchase in the heat of the canvass, and the
immediate publication of Thompson incen-
diary report, give reason to suspect the papers
were obtained more in the interest of Grant
reelection than for the money they
might save to the Treasury? This report
tells the world no news. We all knew Of the
plot to burn Northern cities, to free prisoners
and to assassinate President Lincoln. We
print to-day letter from the. successful nego-
tiator, Colonel Pickett. He says the papers
were rightfully owned by the United States
government, and that, moreover, there are
copies of them all also for sale. This is,
doubtless, the reason of the small price he put
upon them. A Washington despatch says that
large quantities are offered, and that there is
no demand for more. If the balance of these
papers, which it is proposed to publish as
weapons against Greeley, point no more dis
tinctly to his guilt than does the we'll
trumpeted Thompson report, would it not pay
better to sell them as waste paper? Even if
genuine documents could be obtained which
would tend to indame again those passions
which seven years of peace should have sub
-dued, would it not be better patriotism to con-
sign them to the flames than to publish them?
Is craftsmanship so exacting that it should run
the risk of renewed war? General Grants
popularity is surest as peace candidate, and
the motto OF his supporters should be, ''The
Republic is Peace

GENEVA, July 81, 1872
It has been ascertained that the interruption
which recently occurred In the proceedings Of the
Board OF Arbitration for the settlement Of the
Alabama claims was caused by the existence OF
necessity for a re-examination OF the English law
questions regarding the construction OF the pri
watering vessels In British ports ami also for in
vestlgation as to whether the British Admiralty
used SUFFICIENT diligence In preventing these vessels
from going to sea.

cans for compensation for damages England repu-

the London Admiralty acted promptly, although
the revenue police hestated to take the proper
steps to prevent the departure of the vessel.
THE IDEA OF JUMPING THE INDEMNITY.
The outsiders who are engaged in canvassing the
question in all its varying aspects regard 1t as
probable that after very careful investigation of
each CASE the Arbitration Tribunal will place the
amount OF indemnity to be paid by Great Britain
to the United States at gross sum, the total Of
which will be stated by the Court
THE QUESTION OF INTEREST.
The Court of Arbitration is also engaged In con-
sidering the matter OF allowing interest on the
amounts awarded. 1t is stated that majority Of
the Board are unfavorable to sue h allowance.

Disastrous Fire at Hunters Point,
Extensive Oil Works, S1OrehOuses, aud
Several Vessels Destroyed.

NEW YORK, July 80 "A fire broke ont at
eleven o'clock on the west shore Of Newton
Creek about twenty rods from the Long Island
railroad depot and spread rapidly, an oil yard
near the depot being soon on fine.
There were five large talks of naptha and re-
fined oils, each containing five thousand gal
Ions; and four Of these were buried. Hopes
were entertained at last accounts of saving tue
remaining tanks. Over fifty thousand barrels
of petroleum on the wharf ready Tor shipment
were burned, as were also four ships and three
canal boats loaded with oil.
Many Of the burning barrels of oil rolled into
the river, endangering the shipping All YES
sells were finally removed. No ferry boat was
burned, as was reported.
Goes phosphate factory, together with large
amount of stock, was consumed. Loss about
900.
The Standard oil works were entirely con-
sumed by three o'clock. Pratts astral works,
in the rear of the Standard works, have not yet
ignited, and hopes are entertained of saving
them, as the wind is now blowing the flames
toward the river. Many of the sheds owned by
ROckafclar, Andrews & Co.. containing thou
sands of barrels of oil, were entirely consumed
At one time the tire extended over three
blocks, covering the entire space with solid
flame. Estimates place the loss on the vessels
at 100000; on the Standard oil works S25O,OOO;
on Goes works, $685. 900. Almost all the losses
were fully covered by insurance. No further
destruction is now apprehended, the fire being
pretty well Subducd.
At four O'Clock it was reported that the fire
was confined to the oil in the tanks and to that
which lay in the holds of burning vessels.
Many contradictory reports are afoat, and it
is impossible to ascertain the precise extent and
loss by the fire; but it is believed that the loss
will reach about 100000.
The fire ignited by some accident in canal
boat which was unloading at the wharf,
The fire department did all in their power, but
their efforts were of little avail.
