John Stuart Mill, the story of whose life and
death is told in another column, was the chief
thinker of his age in the advanced school of
political economy. The exact opposite in
theory and opinion from Henry O. Carey, his
views and arguments were especially priced by
American free-traders, because they generally
furnished solid answers to the allegations of
the protectionists. His death will accordingly
be regretted as an irreparable loss by the
friends Of political and social reform, and
especially by the advocates Of unrestricted
commerce. Mr.. Mill began his career as
thinker early in life, and his intellect seemed
to grow in power and comprehensiveness
while he lived. He was called impracticable-
view of his philosophy which may or may
not have been true; but whether impracticable
or not at this time, his works will continue to
exert great influence upon the growth Of So
ciety and nations, and under other conditions
may prove Of incalculable benefit to mankind.
His work on liberty is as charming as Cicero
de Senectute, and ought in itself to keep the
world alive to the spirit of freedom for GEN.
turies As writer on logic he was unsur-
passed by the philosophers of this and every
age. It is only as political economist that
men doubt the soundness of his views, and in
this regard it must not be forgotten that polit-
ical economy as science is only in its in
fanny, it, indeed. it has yet attained the dignity
OF o science Whatever of coherency and
beauty and truth and comprehensiveness it
possesses, it owes more to John Stuart Mill
than to any Of the men who went before him.
Mr.. Mill became a thinker at the most active
and progressive period in English politics.
Parliamentary reform was agitating the Eng
lish mind, and the great questions of COM
merce and production were receiving such
attention as it was possible to give them. The
young clerk in the India House grasped
them with frmer hand than the politicians
in the Houses of Parliament and soon showed
himself at once philosopher and states
man. All liberal views found him champion,
sometimes even to an extent to which the
boldest would not venture. All progressive
ideas sought in him an interpreter. After his
laboring classes regarded him as their leader.
His essay on Liberty" became handbook
even in the hands Of politicians Every new
movement, political or social, beneficial or
deleterious, sought his endorsement. Some
times he gave his aid to objects that were
unworthy of his support or chimerical and
impracticable but no one ever doubted his
integrity of thought and purpose, and most of
those who opposed him were not SO much
convinced that his judgment was wrong as
that he was man in advance of his age. His
death is q great loss to social and political
science; but posterity will never forget the
name and the achievements of John Stuart
Mill

EMPEROR WILLIAM has left st. Petersburg,
and, according to present arrangements, he
will arrive in Berlin on Sunday. How much

Russian capital Russia knows the possible
complications which may grow out of the
Central Asian difficulty Is the alliance Of
Germany secured? So long as this Asiatic
difficulty exists-a difficulty which brings
England and Russia face to face-this ques-
ton must be one Of the foremost questions of
the hour. From present appearances it seems
pot unfair e conclude that RYssia and Ges-
many are Of one mind II Is this presumed
alliance which makes this new Eastern ques-
ton SO serious. Our latest news from Central
Asia is not encouraging to those who hope
for the continuance of peace.

The AUSTRIAN BoURsE AT VIENNA, labored

ter, when we are told that portion of the

gregate.

The War In spsin-Ets Actual Com
niet and Party Contradictions.

The War In spsin-Hts Actual Com
Met and Psrty Contradictions.
The HERALD special telegram from Madrid
which appears in our columns to-day supplies
painful evidence of the fact that the war be-
tween the Carlists and the forces Of the
Spanish Republic is still waged with great
activity, and that the contending parties
are moved against each other by that
deadly spirit of intense ferceness which
mas been ever characteristic Of Spanish hate.
The battle which was fought, just lately, be-
tween the Bourbonist army, under General
Dorregarry, and the loyalists resulted, it is
alleged, IN the total rout of the republicans,
with the loss of two hundred men killed and
OF many prisoners and small arms, and
one cannon, which were captured by
the insurgents The Madrid government
attempts to Offset this report by the
publication of an official despatch which an
nounces the defeat Of Dorregarry If the
papers on both sides refer to the same en-
gagement there is wide variance in the
matter Of the assertion which they contain;
but it may be that they speak of two different
encounters, in one of which the royal cause
was In the ascendant and in the other that
Of the democracy. Spain suffers severely
in the mean time. The army serving in Bis
cay is in state of mutiny on account Of the
non-receipt of its pay. Admiral Topete has
been arrested-an incident which can scarcely
surprise the gallant sailor, as he appears to be
hauled up in the wind every now and
then by the politicians, who cannot, it
may be, comprehend his plan Of plain
sailing and steady course. Minister
of War Nouvillas has been reconciled to Gen
eral Vslarde-an important matter for Span
iards. and one which it is to be hoped may
influence the campaign favorably In the
mean time the governments of almost all the
near and leading nations are being troubled
concerning questions of Spanish neutrality
and Carlism ; but quarrelsome family i
ever unpleasant as q neighbor.

The UsURY BILL has been made o special
order in the Assembly for next Wednesday. AS
amended SO far, it proposes to try the expert
ment for two years of virtual repeal of the
old usury laws. The forfeiture of the princi-
pal is done away with; but while the bill makes
it still unlawful C) to charge more than seven
per cent interest, the lender can bargain for
more, but cannot collect the excess if the Dor
rover afterward disputes IL

she was without boats. She is under the COM
mand of Captain Buddington who ranked next
to the unfortunate Captain Hall That the Same
Providence which guided those already rescued
back to their own land may extend His
kindly hand to save those yet among the perils
OF the icy seas will be the prayer OF the whole
nation.
The death Of Captain Hall will be widely
mourned by those who honor q brave heroic
heart. He has exhibited in his lifetime an
amount of persistence and sagacity which,
though not supplemented by the science of the
schools, were worthy of great object The
scientific results attained it is premature to
speak of. The open Polar Sea again comes
like mirage in the story. That seen by the
Kane expedition is pronounced to be strait
only fifteen miles wide; but the indications
of open water to the north were observed.
The highest point attained by this expedi-
ton was eighty-two degrees, sixteen minutes;
that Of the Kane party was some minutes
higher. The scientific bearings of the sub
ject will be widely discussed until the
Arctic fever again takes hold of q
bold dreamer, and perhaps, after all,
the waters of the North Sea may
be traversed. But while reading the story of
the suferings of the rescued, and awaiting
anxiously fresh tidings from the ship round
whose fate hangs 80 dismal a cloud to-day,
the cssi bono of all such perilous expeditions
will be the subject of much discussion and
widely varying opinions.

Our special despatch from the lava beds
indicates new departure on the part of Cap
tain Jack and the Inauguration of merciless
war on the peaceful settlers of Oregon. The
savages have quietly abandoned their rocky
defences and have taken TO the open country.
Elated with their success in defeating the troops
sent against them, they now deem themselves
able to cope with the United States forces in
the field. Nor are they altogether wrong in
their estimate of their own strength. Well
armed and well mounted and pursuing q sys-
tenn of tactics thoroughly we'll suited to their
kind Of warfare and the nature of the country,
they have little to fear from the heavily &C
coutred and slow moving troops Born and
bred bushwhackers they will not pay much at
tention to the rules of war as laid
down in the army regulations. The Modoc
war, then, will be o guerilla war for the
future. 1t has already commenced. wagon
train, insufficiently guarded, has been cap
tured three men have been wounded, and
seventeen government horses added to the al
ready respectable stables of Captain Jack. How
long is this state Of affairs to continue, and
what is to be the end of it oil? The extermina-
ton of the citizens in the neighborhood of the
lava beds by the savages seems now more prob
able than the determination of the Modocs by
the military. We are told that one hundred
Oregon volunteers have arrived at the lava
beds, and this piece of news is the most en-
couraging yet received; but several thousand
frontiersmen should be Immediately organized
to fight the Modocs, in their own way and
without interference of any kind by army
officers or Indian agents. One thousand such
men would be more effective against the saw
ages than the whole army of the United States

The LIFE OF THE POPE is a subject on
which we might imagine the world could
afford to express itself with strict regard for
truth. For some weeks past the chief cities
of Europe have united in q conspiracy to befog
the public on the matter. He is killed in one
city one day. and, before the news has time to
grow cold, His Holiness is resurrected in
some other city the next day. Berlin and
London have deprived him of life. Paris has
had its turn in the mortuary announcement
and even Rome has hurried him before his
time into the ranks of the subjects for
neurology. In Canada the news of Papal
fatality was sent abroad as soon as he had
been taken out of his winding sheet in Europe.
Pope Plus is doubtless old and infrm, and
may not long survive in this fallible world
but while he still breathes the breath of mortal
life we think the rumorists might spare him
a premature immortality.

Contrary to the general expectation, q
strenuous opposition to the proposed modlf-
cation of the Usury law has sprung up among
the ''hayloft and cheesepress'' Assemblymen.
Yesterday bit of sharp practice was unsuc-
cessfully tried to kill Mr.. Winslow's bill and
defeat the wishes Of the city delegations, who,
speaking for the classes most interested in
monetary matters, are considered best judges
of the effect of the proposed change Next
Wednesday is designated for the continuance
of the discussion. The New York City Local
Improvement bill was debated at some length
in the Assembly on its reception from the
Senate, and the vote by which it had passed
reconsidered. Purporting to remedy an omis-
sion in the new charter, it gives authority to
pay for work on Seventh avenue on
the certificate of the Commissioner of Public
Works, and is considered stroke Of
ring. Being recommitted there will be full
opportunity to ventilate its provisions and
consider whether it offers the proper method
of perfecting that wondrous achievement Of
patchwork lawmaking under which our mu-
nicipal government is to be administered.
Tuesday morning was fixed in the Assembly
for taking up the Canal Debt Funding bill.
The Senate passed, among other bills, one
authorizing an increase Of capital by the Mid
land Railroad Company one fixing the sal
aries Of Kings county Judge and Surrogate at
ten thousand dollars and Surrogate of West
the new Brooklyn charter, which Mr.. Murphy
opposed, though he admitted it to be in the
main democratic charter.
