A WARNING TO THE Liberal REPUBLI-
CAUSE.-THE Louisville Ledger-straight-o
democrat-warns, in friendly spirit, the
liberal republicans, if they intend to preserve
the integrity of their organization, "to watch
some of their leaders" Was there ever a
political organization in which it was not
necessary for the rank and file to watch their
leaders9 AS general thing, among politi-
clans, the principle nowadays is to watch
and prey"

THE GOLD MARKET reflects the continued
heavy imports of foreign merchandise, the in
PRODUCTION the past week having exceeded
eight million dollars. On this amount the
merchants paid nearly five millions of duties,
the disproportion being due to the fact that a
large amount of merchandise was taken out
of bond during the week in addition to the
fresh imports. Gold touched Ill on this de-
mand for coin.

Has the French Republic a Free Press 2
The government Of the French republic APP
pears to fear free utterance of citizen opinion
through the columns of the newspaper press.
Plans for the more effective enforcement of
the existing press censorship, with projects
for the introduction into or ENGRAVING on the
present law of clauses still more penal, appear
to engage the attention of the Theirs Ministry
hourly. The press censorship subject was
again before the Assembly yesterday. The
Executive demands still more power, and has
embodied its request in the shape of Cabinet
measure. 1t is likely to be defeated in the
Parliament, however, so that it is highly
probable that France will soon experience
another political ''crisis." During the pro-
gress of the legislative examination of the
government measure M. Gambetta voted in
favor of the Ministerial plan for q more
stringent examination of newspaper publica-
tions. The Minister of Public Works opposed
the Cabinet and will, it is said, vote against
President Theirs and his own colleagues.
French politics must be sadly mixed when we
find the head of new republic founded on
revolution, himself a writer of vast ability,
becoming frightened at the popular exercise
Of natures noblest gift, the gray goose
quill" and the radical Gambetta recoiling
before the current of the s'inky stream.

Congressional LuIl-The Performances
of tho Senate and House.
The Senate Chamber, in which the new but
not improved adaptation Of the s'French Spy"
has been presented to crowded audiences for
several weeks past, was silent and deserted
yesterday, and Sumner, Schurz, Trumbull,
Conkling, Morton, and the other star perform
ers had o holiday, which many of them, prob
ably, took advantage of for further study and
rehearsal of their parts. The piece is to 60
on next week, and will occupy the boards of
the Senate as long as it continues to draw.
According to present appearances it will have
a run equal to ''Humpty Dumpty," the "Black
Crook" or the ''Seven Sisters" 1t is keeping
up very successful rivalry with Lord Dun
dreary in furnishing entertainment to the peo-
pie Of Washington. As matinee it is espe-
cially attractive. y "'
The chamber Of the House of Representa-.
tives yesterday was given over to that most
dismal Of all spectacles, the spectacle of a
dozen or a score Of intelligent, practical men
assembling to read, or to hear read, essays on
miscellaneous subjects of political character
having application to no pending measure Of
legislation, and intended only for home con-
sumption. 1t is astonishing that public men
who are not deficient in common sense can 60
seriously through such ridiculous perform
ance. That is popularity which is not found
in any body Of legislators in the world except
the House of Representatives., and would be
almost incredible if it were not repeated every
saturday of the session.

laws of neutrality and friendship were violated
from this selfish motive. A thousand millions
OF dollars would not pay us for the injury
done, and would hardly be equal to the advan-
tages England has derived from the maritime
supremacy she has acquired through her
unfriendly acts. Were it not for this treaty the
day might come when we could justly retaliate
and build up our maritime power on the ruin of
hers. The treaty, then, is of immense valne
to her, though of doubtful value to the United
States. Had we continued to follow the advice
of Washington we would not have entered
into any such entangling alliance. The fewer
treaties we make with Europe and the more we
maintain an Independent position in every
respect. especially with regard to neutrals
and maritime laws, the better. Our system
of government, role in the world and future are
different from those Of the European Powers,
and we ought to preserve the utmost freedom
ofaction compatible with fair dealing to other
nations. Still, as we have made the treaty with
England for the sake Of peace and friendship,
we wish to carry it out in good faith. If,
however, England repudiates 1t, we shall not
suffer. We may remain at peace with her
Notwithstanding, though the sore may remain
unhealed On one hand there might appear
to be always some danger, while on the other
there might be greater care to avoid offence,
as there has been, in fact, for some years
past. The only serious difficulty we have
had with England since the war Is from this
very treaty which was intended to remove
every cause of trouble. England has placed
herself in false position on the question of
submitting the Alabama claims to the Geneva
arbitration, and it remains for her to deter
mine how she can escape. Our government

THE MISSOURI RIVER, at its head in the
Rocky Mountains, has broken loose from its
winter chains, and is reported rising rapidly
from the melting ice and SHOWS. This is q
warning of what is coming with a general
breakup over the whole basin of the Missis-
sippi from the Rocky Mountains to the Allie
ghanies. But as the head springs of the
great Missouri are, by the winding course of
the river, nearly three thousand miles from
its junction with the Mississippi, and as over
all the elevated region from Fort Benton to
Omaha the frosts of February and March
will be apt to arrest anything like a general
thaw, the spring flood from the Missouri
will perhaps not get down to st. Louis in ad-
vance of the month of May. When these
floods do come down, however, from the
enormous snow fall of this winter over the
Great Plains and in the Rocky Mountains, the
exposed cities and towns on the Mississippi,
and especially New Orleans, may look out for
the heaviest inundation of half century.

A WHIsKEY JoB-The proposition in Con-
gress to raise the tax on whiskey from fifty to
seventy cents gallon. AS in Brooklyn it is
found impossible to root out the Illicit whiskey
distilleries on the profit Of the fifty cents
tax which they save, such distilleries would
be increased on tax of seventy cents But
in jumping from fifty to seventy cents tax
the large holders Of whiskey would make
something, and, of course, they are In for it.

State Convention of Kansas has chosen q
delegation to the Philadelphia National Con-
vention, with instructions ''to vote for the
patriotic President and citizen soldier, o. 8.

The prospect is now that the denomination OF

must be given him in our home and foreign
affairs to 'scomplete the work 80 well begun. !"

TIE LEGITIMIsTs, the discrowned kings,
&C., of Europe, who have been holding sort
of convention at Antwerp, with the Count de
Chambord, became 80 uproarious the other
evening in the streets as to require the inter-
vention of the armed police to restore order.
The importunate Bourbons, looking to the
Count de Chambord and to France for general
restoration, became, in short, little too
happy over their brilliant prospects. We fear
they will have time enough for cool reflection
before they get their crowns again.

regard to the American case, could plead that
they did not make the treaty, and, being un-
trammeled in that respect, might find solu-
ton of the difficulty by some new and salts
factory proposition. If a change of Ministry
should be the consequence Mr.. Gladstone can
only blame himself The people Of this coun-
try would rather see liberal than tory gov
eminent In England, though this is matter
that concerns the English and not us espe-
cislly; but we cannot give up the position we
have taken to serve any party. 1t is possible
Mr.. Gladstone may find a way out of the pres
ent difficulty, but not probable.
The British government cannot expect the
other provisions Of the Washington Treaty
will hold good If 1t refuses to conform to that
now objected to with regard to the Alabama
claims. The basis and principal object of the
treaty were the settlement of these claims.
For the sake Of peace and friendship this
country conceded great deal. England,
having destroyed our maritime greatness and
much of our commerce-the only formidable
maritime rival she had-ties our hands by
this treaty from retaliation. 1t exempts her
from like consequences In the event of war
Il is useless to talk of friendship and impair
tiality in our civil war. The feeling was
AGAINST the United States, and the purpose
was to aid as far as possible the threatened
DISRUPTION of this republic. The privateer
were let loose and the rebels hastily recog
nized as belliqerents With that object. Th

years of trying to be a popular king. 'Served
him right" The young Count Of Paris brings
down condemnation from the old noodles
around him, because he is caught humming
the old air of revolutionary tendency, which
was campaign" song for his party forty
years ago.

But we cannot gush over this young upstart,
as the old boys call him, while we regard the
stout old lady, late of Madrid, styled Isabella
H., with the ''golden rose" in her hair, and
her head more full Of stout captains of the
guard and bewitching opera tenors than "sore-
head" intrigues Then there is young Bomba,
late of Naples, whom an eruption of red
shirts, under tallow chandler named
Garibaldi, swept away, while Gladstone, the
perfidious Englishman, was writing letters
about the way his father tortured his
maccaroni-eating subjects. A comical
figure is that in an opera 6oufe
Greek costume, with dropsical look, as If he
had been solacing his sore head with q cask
or two of Bavarian beer. This was Ohio L.,
King of Greece, sent kiting some ten years
ago by his cutthroat subjects, the descendants
of Miltiades, Demosthenes, Diogenes and
other classic swells. But when we turn to
the German benches we give up the catalogue
in despair at the old, buried magnates, whose
full names mortal never pronounced, but
whose epitaphs, as kings, princes, electors,
landgraves. with their Schleswigs, Scheve-
rims, Holsteins, Hesse, Lippe, Meningen,
Schafferhausen, and so on, are to be found
among the crypticsms buried in the inscru-
table pages of the "Almanach de Gotha" for
some years now gone. There is Charles I. Of
wurtemburg, who only lost his crown-unlike
his English namesake, who lost his head In
addition. Carl Schurz is live, respectable
man beside him. Then there are Crane

Charles Hilderbrand, once noted horse
thief, was hung by mob on Friday night
last At Hancock station, In PULASKI county,
Missouri, on suspicion Of being one Of gang
otthleyes who had been operating along the
line Of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad. He
was about 30 years Of age. His mother lives
a short distance from Dearborn, 10 this State,
For one Of his years he had bad reputation,
arising, however, considerably from his prac-
tico OF relating many terrible stories con-
corning himself which, undoubtedly, had
their origin only 10 his Imagination. About
Ave years since no stole horse and buggy at
Milwaukee, aud subsequently he was traced
to his mothers house by Superintendent
Bergman and Detective 5talor and was ar
rested BY the latter, and taken back TO NIL
waukee, where he was convicted and sent to
Soon after being released he returned To
his home. Last summer he came 70 this city,
and soon got Into trouble. He eallod AT t6e
lewelry establishment Of NJ. 8. Smith h Co,
and informed them that plan had been sci
on loot 70 rob their store, and he offered. in
Son0aerauon Of sum Of money being paid
MIN, 70 give Information that would seenro

ma p was turned over Into the custody Of Capt
hogeIs, and an effort was made 70 send him
70 prison - q vagrant but be proved too
wise and the authorities were reluctantly
compelled to release him.
re, however, offered TO leave the city on
condition that he should be released, and he
went. AWeok or so ago he turned up in st.
Joseph, MO-, where was incarcerated In the
calaboose. On the day of hls release he
visited the editorial rooms Of the Herald
OF that city and gave one Of the rupor-
ters highly colored narrative OF his
career Of crime, which was IN substance
the same that he gave 10 one OF
tne newspapers here. He announced, as no
aiu mere, that he intended to reform, but the
mob read his Geography" and concluded
mat his pretended reformation was a sham,
aud took his life, as before lated. That he
was Insane there Is hardly room for doubt.
