II Is under consideration, bntis not yet actually
decided upon, for the Mikado to send embassy to

II has been determined to throw the whole coun-
try open to foreigners provided all who tavelin the
interior submit to be controlled by the laws of ia
pan. The Government lie sssiduously endeaToring

Adams never dreamed In his widest moments OF
Japanese wearing "stove-pipe" hats and Cinnamon
performing on bicycles. Both are, however, now
familiar to Yokohama, though John selects time

We learn that Mr.. Watson, H.B.M.'s Charge DAFT

Affairs, dispatch which he has received from Lord
Granville stating that "Sir John Colerdge and the
other law officers of the English Crown are entirely
of opinion that al ne prooeedags Of the Japanese
Government In the case OF the 1tdid Luz were jus
tifable and right"
1t is designed by the Government to hold Uni

time As vet we are not clear whether It is to be
In Kioto or Yedo, but VIC believe the latter. Com
missioners have been appointed in connection with
the Vienna Exhibition, whose special duty 1t is to
study the exact way of 7carrying out such scheme
in the best manner possible; and the Governmentis
quite prepared to make It credable and thorough

In order to mark his appreciation of the action
taken BY the japanese authorities in the of the

letter of thanks to His Excelency Dye TAX, the

The Law against smoking in the streets, which

A LITTLE WAR IN THE EAST. = Eu-
ropean papers report that the small, but
thrifty, Kingdom of Holland has war
upon its hands. The Dutch were among
the first European nations to gain foot
hold in the East, and they have continued
10 retain possession there till the present
time. They own the whole of the Island
of Java, the revenue from which forms no
inconsiderable item in the income of the
kingdom, and have also settlements on
the Islands of Borneo and Sumatra. 1t
is with respect to the last named island
that the trouble has arisen. Sumatra is
one of the largest islands of the East
Indian Archipelago, containing an area of
100000 square miles, with a population
which has been estimated at 1000, 900,
but about 100000 is supposed to be the
actual number The Dutch obtained a
settlement on the island in 1000, and have
from time to time since gradually extend
ed their possessions there. But section
of the island known as Acheen, or Atchin,
is under the control of a Sultan, and he,
like the rest of the Malsys, is addicted to
piracy. His subjects, with the connivance,
it is alleged, of the Sultan himself, have
lately been committing depredations upon
British commerce, and by treaty of Hol-
land with Great Britain, the former is
bound to protect British ships in these
waters, as well as in those of the Neither
lands. The Sultan having been called
upon to check the piratical proclivities of
his subjects without avail, King William
of Holland has commenced hostilities.
This Sultan, it is represented, is a power
full prince, and the Dutch may well antici-
pate considerable trouble in bringing him
to terms.

THE ELECTIONS.
government.

The November State elections which took
place yesterday indicate something OF reac-
ton against the Republican party The re-
suits differ widely from those of year ago.
Instead of q sweeping Endorsement of the
Administration and the dominant party, there
seems to be, if these results have any mean
ing, a widespread disaifec6On with both. 1t
has not been manifested in an increased
opposition vote so much as IN the falling
off of the Republican. General apathy Is
the proper definition of it. The large
promise of the Administration party year
ago has been utterly unfuliilled, and the
honest masses, not ready yet In their disgust
TO 90 over entirely TO the opposition, have con-
tented themselves with tacit register OF their
protest by staying at home and voting not at
all. There has been no increase in the
Democratic vote, but a large falling oil
in the Republican. balance of power
complete in itself and able TO turn
the scale at any time for a party that promises
TO be honest and capable, and fulflls its prom
Use, has separated itself from both the old
parties, and may hold itself in readiness here
after to rebuke partisanship and promote
good government. The Democrats have, mean
time, nominal triumph, and are entitled to
all the comfort they can derive from it.
The returns received up to the hour of 60
ing to press are published elsewhere, and tell
their own story. They may be summed up
briefly thus Against a majority of over $4,000
for Grant last year, the Democratic State
ticket in New-York has from $1,000 to 10000
majority. The Assembly is Republican by
reduced majority, and the Senate doubtful.
In Wisconsin there has been a marked rev.
olution in political affairs, Taylor Democratic
Liberal and Reform candidate for Governor
being elected over Washburn, the present Re-
publican Governor, by a majority estimated
at 5000. Washburn's majority was 9,379 in
1871; Grants was 1880 i'll 1872. Vir-
GINA has undoubtedly elected the COnser-
vative candidate for Governor, James l.. KEN
per. His majority over Hughes, Republican,
is estimated at 10000. The Conservatives have
a majority in the Legislature on joint ballot,
which gives them the United States SEN
atOr, to be chosen in place of SEN
ator Lewis. In Massachusetts the Repub-
lican majority is considerably reduced;
but the returns are still very incomplete.
Kansas chose Legislature, which is to elect
a United States Senator to succeed Caldwell,
resigned. The Anti Administration party
claim majority on joint ballot. A consid-
cradle falling off in the Republican vote is
reported from Maryland, where the Conserya-
tives have chosen a majority of the Legisla-
ture which has the election of United States
Senator to succeed Senator Hamilton. AT this
hour q a. n.y. returns from other States are
too imperfect to deserve comment.

TIE USURY LAWS.

Nearly two hundred years ago John Locke,
wrote his treatise on Money, in which he OPP
posed the system of laws restricting the in
terest on money. There are principles of
finance and currency whose truth is as undis-
puted by all persons competent to pass judg-
ment as the truths of mathematics. To the
ordinary mind, however, the task of construct
ing a system of geometry or writing an
algebra would be impossible. 1t has required
the concurrent labors of many men of the
greatest genius to produce the ordinary text
books of algebra and geometry used in our
schools. Political economy il certainly
a more complex and difficult science
than algebra, yet almost every man in
business assumes to be able to solve
its problems without, in most cases,
ever having devoted n week to the study of
It's principles. Men of little more specula-
tive turn of mind than ordinary mOrtals
though totally ignorant and even boasting Of
their ignorance, of the labors of the great in
tellects who have earned worldwide reputa-
tions for their services in the cause of this
science get some obsolete idea into their
heads, and forthwith rush to the nearest news
paper with their cobweb theories. So-called
and delusions of these false prophets of
finance to their own interests. Hence the vast
array of schemes for various kinds of paper
money which are now being set ahoat from
end to end of this country.
John Locke was not man of the kind we
have described. A close observer of men and
things, as well IA a profound thinker, he
established on firm foundation many of those
principles of currency which have bcen'acccrt-
ed by all subsequent writers of any reputa-
ton. Among these principles is this : that no
Government can control the price which men
may exact or pay for the use of money. If
Government attempts this, it win breed
plentiful swarm of pcrjurers. and do harm in
more ways than one. In all the great COM
mercial nations of Europe, the principles of
Locke have been accepted and acted on. Is
there an increased demand for money in Lon

THE CONFLICT AT VERSAILLES

There have been few more important legisla-
tive sessions in recent years than that of to-
day in the theater at Versailles. In spite of
all the loud Boosting and confident prophecy
on the side of the MOnarchists, there is posi-
lively nothing to be predicted with certainty
of the result of the meeting. 1t is not even
definitely known how many members will
take part in the proceedings. In all the dis
cussions which have occupied the Paris papers
for the last few weeks there has been sim
gular yagueness in regard TO numbers. Not
only has it been impossible to mention ex-
actly the number of Deputies pledged to this
or that course, but the number of sitting
members is differently stated by different
papers. While the Monarchists were clamor-
ously claiming clear majority, Edmond
About wrote a vehement article on "the
power of lying" asserting that these state
ments were knowingly false, and that no ma
jority ever had existed or could exist for the
restoration of NJ. de Chambord Republican
paper, which seemed TO speak with some care,
affirmed that the utmost limit of the vote
which could be controlled for the Bourbon
monarchy was 800, which was 40 below an ac-
tual majority
II this statement was true a fortnight ago,
it would be still more impossible to-day to
bring in the Comte de Chambord by vote of
the Assembly, even if he had not destroyed
his chances by his own act. But such discus
sion is rendered useless by his letter to NJ. dc

his name an absurdity in a Legislative assembly

which il charges for the use of Its notes ana

vanced its rate of interest from three per cent

its rate from Ave per cent to six. Inc BANKS OF

Can they show that the nOn-existence OF

can do neither the one thing nor the
other, what has the usury law TO stand on !
Surely the methods Of borrowing and lending
here, the subterfuges and shifts resorted to TO
avoid the law, the perjurics committed when
differences come before the courts for settle
ment, and the chaotic state which Is almost
the normal condition Of the New-York money
market. are no recommendations in favor OF
the laws under which such monstrous evils
have grown up. We say to the next Legisla-
ture, Away with the usury laws Give us in
the varying rate of discount of the banks a
financial barometer such Gs no great city OF
Europe would think of doing without. Let
men and banks be free to borrow and lend On
