THE GENEVA DEADLOCK.

We see no reason to revise our impression
that if the British Government have distinctly
announced their intention to Withdraw from
the Arbitration at Geneva unless our Case Is
either withdrawn or modified, there is no
present prospect of the execution OF tho
Treaty of Washington. There seems to be q
general disinclinatiOn among the Administra-
ton organs to rest satisfied with this view.
They all sustained stoutly the American Case
when it was first published, and declared 1t
was another proof of the wisdom and proper
spirit Of the present Cabinet. But within a
few days, as if carrying out the provisions OF
some tacit convention, they are beginning
timidly TO repudiate the document which they
found at first so satisfactory. The manner in
which this il done is singuaIly Characteristic.
The especial organ in this city, which is
always renewing the feat of tho bear in the
fable, who smashed his masters skull
with paving stone in attempting to
drive away II fly, seeks to justify the
Administration, while repudiating its acts, by
insinuating that it was not the state Depart
ment which conducted tho negotiations and
prepared the Case, but that depraycd mscreant,

Seriously. is il right to ruin the moral character
of those Door japanese in Washington besides setting
them bad example as to manners in company The
correspondent Of The Boston Transcript is authority
for saying that they are always eating pickles and
hard-boiled eggs, and drinking champagne and hot
coffee; and that they have no regard whatever for
their digestive organs. it being question with
many whether they have any. But this is nothing
to the nquity of introducing the foreign young gen

them into the mysteries of billiards rouge-et-noir,

In all the newspapers find notice of Catharine
Donavan Of Springfield, Mass, the peculiarity of her
case being that she has taken solid food for two
years, and for the last seven months nothing but
water" "No solid food" is perfectly consistent
with an amount nutritious saliment sufficient to sus-
tain life but that Miss Donavan has lived for seven
months water alone we simply decline to believe.
She is said to have been injured by falling upon
flour barrel, but not even a homeopathic Ill con-
tend that falling upon flour barrel will nourish

New-York tribune., 1872-04-01

We have already mentioned the peling with bags
of flour of Bishop Temple, at Exeter England, while
he was addressing a Temperance Alliance meeting.
The sheffield Telegraph. while commenting upon this
low outrage says with palpabe ironical force:
perhaps the pelting was symptomatic of repent
anco and heraded restitution. The pclting of
learned prelate with little bags Of -four may have
been symbolical of desire to send the good Bishop
larger bags of -four for tho benefit Of the half
starved wives and furnishing children whose flour
money goes weekly to some Exeter beer house."
There is touch of Douglas Jerrods old turn in the
manner Of this comment which is quite refreshing.

Dr. Ernest Krackowizer, one Of our most emi-
neDt citizens Of German birth, who signed the
letter to Col. GIOsvenor printed III our last,
objects to the reference in that call as printed
70 Federal taxation the words " for revenue
having been omitted in the copy signed by
him. so that the letter read: "Fedcral taxa
"tion should be so adjusted as to make
"the burdens as light as possible upon the
~indr5try of the country" In short, DIR. n.
stands for Protection, as we do, but asks that
tbe Cincinnati Convention shall simply leave
the people free to decide for Protection Or
Free Trade, as they shall severally prefer, IN
tbe choice of Members of Congress We have
no doubt that the Cincinnati Convention will
take this precise ground. which is that which
the Republican party has always maintained; I;
and we see nothing inconsistent with this in
the letter to Col. GrOsvenor.
New-York tribune., 1872-04-01

The troubles of the tea and coffee importers
have apparently but just begun. The Senate
bill cmbodyng the repeal of the duties on
these articles contains so much new matter,
il will be remembered, that the House has
good reason for taking umbrage at an unau-
thorized invasion of its sole right to originate
bills of revenue. The Senate added great
deal of Tariff amendment, and then provided
in the same bill for the repeal of the Internal
Revenue law. The House will act Oh the
much-amended bill to-day, and there is a
strong impression in Washington that it will
stand upon its dignity and refuse to consider
the action of the Senate as constitutional.
New-York tribune., 1872-04-01

The Reformed Charter now goes to the
Assembly for concurrence in the Senate's
amendments. Most of these are approved by
public opinion here, but one is condemned by
the entire Press that which intrusts the
selection of our great Commission to two
Justices of the Superior Court. Wrong as
this is on the face of it, its concealed object
is still worse. We cannot doubt that the
Assembly will emphatically reject it, Do let
us have Charter whose object is not to put
A. or B. into Office, but to retrench expendl-
lures and secure honest rule.

on at the Lowell institute. They are oil art,
but are historical rather than critical; pleasant
rather than profound, They embrace Egyptian,
Assyrian and Grecian art, and are richly illus
trated by photographs exhibited by Mr.. Black
with stereoptcon. The arrangement is per-
feet; the old clumsy Punch and Judy looking
box that used to stand in the middle OF the hall
at every stereopdcon exhibition is dispensed
with. The instrument, without curtains or
conceament, Is placed at the back of the hall,
with a large screen on The wall opposite, at the
speakers right. The hall is darkened
sufficiently to show the pictures, bat not
enough TO be painful to the eyes. Light is
thrown on the lecturers manuscript by lamp
shaded from the audience; he reads in rapid,
quiet, rather indistinct way, and when he men
tons work OF art he touches small bell on
the desk, and instantaneously beautiful, clear
picture OF it appears upon the screen, and re-
mains there till the bell sounds again, when it
is replaced by another picture. The lectures
are only one hour long, and arc delightful; the
novel and satisfactory mode of illustration be-
ing their greatest charm. The audiences are
large and very attentive, and | think Mr. Per
kins has undoubtedly done the best thing of the
winter in the way of lectures.
