AN INTERESTING FINANcIER-WoRsE THAN
BULL OR BEAR.-The Premier of the Fiji
Islands has arrived in Sydney, Australia,
under commission to negotiate money loan
for the use Of His Majesty King Thakambou.
He had not experienced any encouragement
at the date of our latest advices from the an
tipodes. Whether this fact is really more
threatening in its prospective consequences to
the Australian bankers or the Fiji monarch re-
mains to be seen. The King is very ugly
customer to attempt to put 'corner" on,
owing to the fact that he may make sudden
burst and sgobble up" the ''ring" men, not
merely fguratively, but physically and sub
stantially. Queen Victora's soldiers have had
a vast deal of deal Of trouble with the African
potentates, Oko-Jumbo and Ja-Ja and Theo-
dorus and, still more recently, with the titled
aristocracy of New Zealand The FIJI monarch
is really dangerous when offended. The Sgd
ney banks should ''place' his loan, if at all
possible and thus secure for the colony the
pledge of treaty tooth of friendship, the
same as we have in Washington. Nothing
ike amicable diplomacy without consequential
damages.

article on serhe Christian Law Of Local

article on 'The Christian Law Of Local
Unity" 1t deplores the excessive denomina-
tionalism that now prevails, and thinks that
religion is dishonored and faith shaken in the
minds of outside observers, by the efforts of
Christian churches to gain strength at the ex-
pense Of each other There is, however, no
immediate hope of change in this regard.
We have to welcome a new journal, the
Catholic Union, of Buffalo, which promises to
take good rank among its contemporaries, if
the vigor and variety that mark its first num-
Der are maintained. 1t contains several good
controversial articles, and its news columns
seem to be unusually well filed.
The Catholic Reviep has a short but caustic
article on the Communication" Of Mazzini by
his disciples in Italy, and says that "a lock of
his hair and ''his spectacles' have been ex-
hibited for the veneration and worship of the
faithful, in the hall of the United Working
mems Association at Genoa" If this be all
true, Mazzini will soon turn over in his grave
in indignant horror

Deutschland, who has not quite settled the
liberals and ultramontanists, and having
known exile once, may seek it again. What
welcome we should give the gallant old chief,
and what peace he would find to smoke his
homely, comforting pipe, and drink his beer,
under our Hoboken vines and dg-trees with
fraulein and kinder and old Moltke and Bis
marck to gossip with as they dipped their noses
into the foaming mugs, and Carl Schurz to
comfort him, and two hundred thousand of the
Fatherland to do him honor, and the New
YORK HERALD telling him from day to day of
the chatter and war and strife over the sea!
Such HERALD as what we print this morn
ing. for instance! What surprise it would
be to his sacred and imperial eyes to read
down its long columns and mediate upon
them. sxty-four columns Of advertisements,
for instance. What volume they make The
world speaking to the world, as it seems. The
mother who seeks her child the lover who
has lost his beloved and will not be COM
forted Gretchen, who wants home and occu-
patton Fritz, who would have work and
opportunity the merchant with his wares;
the landlord seeking a tenant; the tenant
craving home; marriages and deaths ships
going to sea and coming from sea the strifes
of politicians clergymen inspired to preach
the Gospel and calling upon sinners to come
and hearken and be saved-what world it
is what world voice here speaks! 1t is
not what we say, dearly beloved brethren, nor
what the news reporters say to us from all
nations, that hath the deathless eloquence that
lies hidden in these sixty-four columns of
printed advertisements. How snug, compact!
Indifferent, unnecessary perhaps they seem to
the careless reader, who hurries to the editorial
page and the news narratives But every line
has voice. Some human soul with q pur-
pose or want or duty or an ambition,
crying out on the calm winds of this mild
spring morning, to be satisfied. Is there not
eloquence in this, and true poetry to those
who see the beauty and fitness of things? And
after all it is the advertisement that lives
Long after we have passed away, and this
bright, inviting page has grown yellow and
dusty, and the HERALD is written and printed
by men now unborn for generations that are
to come there will be life in these advertis-
ing columns to the student, the thinker, the
historian--to all who care to know what the
New York of to-day really is. For, friends,
these columns speak the voice of New York
The essays we write, the news we print, the
comments, criticisms, sage, prudent observa-
tons and speculations, the theories of learned
and gifted men, the gossip of entertaining
story tellers-all of this is for the day; the
columns of marriages and deaths are feeever.
Great and manifold as are the missions of the
HERALD, it has none higher than this-to be
the exchange of New York.

M. Fnvarger,s Benefit.

Music, song, comedy, and Rotations In French
constituted the entertainment presented last
ing at the Union League Club Theatre, for the bene
fit M. A. A. Favarger, who is so favorably known to
the elite of this city, in his diversified capacity OF lit
erateur dramatic reader and teacher of French and
elocution. The neat cheerful looking hall was filed
by select audience partaking of the character OF
gathering at some fashionable amateur perform
ance, and more disposed to commend than to cavil.
But the soree, on the whole, was really deserving
of praise, and the different artists merted the ap-
plause so literally bestowed upon them. "Le
Cachemire Vert" one OF those light, agreeable
comedies, founded upon French domestic
life,. from the nimitable pen of Dumas,
was first presented and favoraby received.
MILE Cave did ample justice to the pleasing, idib-
matte French OF the dialogue, which she spoke
with great expressveness and effect. The brusque
soldier (by M. Juignet) the courteous sutton by NJ,
Leonard, who form the remaining characters OF
the piece, were played in manner recall
ing the performances at the best Pari-
sian theatres. The musical part of tho
soiree was rendered by M Leoni Berthel0t
and Mile. Pauline Munger, both of whom met with
warm appreciation. M. BertheOt sang "COmme
vingt ans'' with good expression. Mile Nininger
has voice Of great power and purity, and rem
dered I'D 'Amor," from sTrOvatore," In a very
fine manner, but her organ. is more adapted
to large theatre than to hall OF small dimen-
siOns. Seniors Ramirez and Martini in Spanish cos

ment will show that the gin shops are less in
demand and that the increasing balance is on
virtues side. We are glad to learn that the
experiment is likely soon to be made by the
Mercantile Library, and that the question of
opening the Aston Library on Sunday is to be
discussed at the next meeting of the Board of
Directors. Let us hope that common sense
will win, and that SO far at least religion and
intelligence will cease to hinder the growth
and development Of public virtue.

THE VEsuvIUs VOLCANIC ERUPTION. tele-
gram from Naples and Rome under date
of yesterday, we are informed that We
suvius continued in angry eruption during the
hay, assuring the Old World Of the una
bated severity of the present attack of its in
fernal chronic disorder by the exhibition of
the most painfully violent symptoms of the
active return of an aggravated disease. The
forces of the earthquake were arranged and
fired of in rapid succession, the mouths Of the
crater serving as points of exit for the dis
charge of rocks ashes, and streams of the
lava liquid fire. italian official reports
go to diminish the number of the
killed and wounded from the totals
which were stated in the first returns, and do so
TO very consoling extent. The same source of
information assures us, however OF the depopu-
tation of many villages by the fight of the in
habtants, the people moving away in the face
oi an absolute and uncomfortable danger.
Ihe Lava ran down the mountain sides with
most unusual rapidity for some time but the
now OF the current was abating in speed at the
moment when our latest telegram was de-
spatched from Rome. The Italian government
continues active in its efforts for the relief of
the sufferers, and the prayers of the faithful
both In the Old World and the New. during
the Sabbath to-day may accomplish what 70,
mains for the insurance of the temporary
earthly salvation of the afflicted people.

The kilograms from Madrid, which reached
the HERALD yesterday, bring only meagre
reports of the progress and prospect of the
Spanish insurrectionary movements as they
presented during the day. Whether this re-
suits from lack of new material or from
general interruption of the means of commu-
nication between the capital and the provinces
remains to be seen. The Carlist action may
have been of merely spasmodic character,
prevailing at certain points, and thus rendered
the general scheme plan piebald in the eyes Gifts
partisans-a very discouraging feature to men
who risk their lives for the advocacy
of principle, the sustainment of a politi-
cal cause, or the support of a governmental
dynasty. The telegraph wires have been cut
by the Carlists at very many points in the
rural districts, so that it may be that there are
important facts behind, and still remaining
for the purpose Of our record of modern
Spanish history. In the meantime we have
from Madrid extracts from the Spanish official
dispatches, specially accorded to our CORE
spondent for the use of the HERALD, which
throw considerable light on the current of the
insurgent movement, its mode of inception
proclamation and progress. There is
little doubt that the insurrectionists in the
provinces have acted according to q
plan of preconcerted arrangement, and it is
equally certain that the Kings officers were
pretty well informed as to their inten-
tons beforehand. This latter fact is
quite in accordance with the system
of treason which has ever prevailed
within the ranks of secret organizations pro-
Tossing, or apostolic of, revolutionary pur-
poses. The fact is patent, Notwithstanding,
that Amadeus officials were alarmed at the
very outset and although they claim to have
dispersed the agitators here and there at
the very commencement of the movement,
there is no telling, as our writer remarks, what
amount of news may have been concealed from
his eye in Madrid, and that, too, with the most
courteous tone of Castilian compliment.

EARL GRANvnLE's REILLY TO THE SPANISH
CIRCULAR ON THE INrERNATIoNALs.-Ear
Granville has replied to the Spanish circular
ON the international Society. The circular re-
terred to is reasonably long document in
which the evils sure to come, if check is not
placed on the workings Of the International,
were depicted in very glowing language. The
reply Of the English Foreign Secretary, though
At will not prove satisfactory to Spain, is,
nevertheless, thoughtful, sensible and truly
English emanation. England is not going to
trouble itself about an organization which can
be crushed more effectually by silence than by
Rny other means 1t is the unwise course
pursued by politicians, who assume to be
statesmen, which makes the International So
ciety fear and terror in Europe. We fancy,
however, that for some time to come Spain will
have sufficient Carlist business on hand to oc-
Cupy its attention, without troubling foreign
governments with essays on the International
