THE ISSUE OF SILVER BY THE TREASURY.

JACKSON, Oct. Is, 1873
The House has passed bill by nearly two-thivds
majority postponing the general election till next
year. The Senate was doubtful, and adjourned this
morning until Tuesday, after lew minutes
session. 1t is conjectured that Senators
favoring the election on the first Mon

date, thus preventing quorum. The House

RUSSIAN REPORT OF THE CONDITION OF
AFFAIRS IN KHvA-A telegram from st.
Petersburg, under date Of yesterday, reports
that the Russian government has been spe-
cially informed by dispatches from Central
Asia Of the inception and continued existence
of frightful condition Of affairs in Khiva
since the retirement of the imperialist Mus
covite troops from the Khanate territory The
city of Khiva was captured, plundered and
razed by force of revolted Youmeds
after the departure of General Kauf-
mann and his army. Sixteen hundred
Persians, just emancipated from slavery, have
been slaughtered by the Usbeks-a very sad
and exceedingly serious affair. His Highness
the Khan is, it is alleged, calling out for the
Russians to return, so as to enable
him to restore order. Such is the i'm
perialist account of the present fruits of
the Cars military mission to Khiva. It
may be exaggerated, even heightened in
color, with intent but it contains
evidently quite sufficient of fact
to prove that the world must
wait a good while yet before the peoples
realize the civilizing effects which are to flow
from the Russian march on the Jaxartes. But
80 the world has had to wait for the Christian
consequences of Warren Hastings propaganda
ism in Hindostan.

The Verdict In the Kelsey Case.

The Verdict I'm the Kelsey Case.

directed inquiry the Coroner's jury, empan-
ellod to investigate the case of the unfortunate
Kelsey, have produced o verdict Pending

ton social wound, comment on the character
of the finding Of the jury may be deferred
1t is matter for congratulation, however, and
is noted with satisfaction, that the representa-
tives Of the tar and feather party-the per-
sons to whom the evidence taken on the
inquest pointed as the participants in
the Outrage, and may be murder
are placed under the ban Of the law. The
matter is not disgraceful alone to Huntington;
the scandal of outraged justice, discarded law
and condoned crime affects the State, and is
therefore, of more Importance than many OF
the country people suppose. It may be, as is
suggested by our correspondent, that MUIR
der was not intended. Perhaps the hot
headed dry goods clerks and village
wiseacres' purpose fell short of the
dreadful execution; but whether or not,
it should be made manifest by the power of
law that murder for fun is not allowable. The
whole affair is reproach to the State. 1t
wants faithful, energetic District Attorney
and public sentiment to back him. The

rage on Kelsey will have to be punished

AFFAIRS IN UTAH.-Brigham Young, the
Mormon chief, is reported in very feeble
health, causing serious uneasiness to the great
body of his people, whose interests are de-
pendent upon the prolongation of his life.
Naturally, however, Of robust constitution,
he is said to become impatient against any
suggestions of the possibility Of his early de-
mise. Still, with his characteristic fore
thought, we dare say that when called for to
cross the Jordan it will be found that he has
put his house in order. Meantime, the pres
ence of Colonel Fred Grant (son of the Presi-
dent) at Salt Lake City is naturally exciting
some speculations there as to the object Of his
visit We suspect, however, that his only OBJ
jects are to see the Mormons in their City of
Zion, and, second, to see if General Morrow

The NATIONAL BOARD OF TRADE, assembled
at Chicago, has accomplished little except in
the way OF speech-making There is want Of
harmony in the views Of the delegates, and we
fear the proceedings will terminate without
any good or practical result. One gentleman
was in favor Of Congress regulating trans
portation both by land and the water routes;
another approved only of the improvement Of
water routes by Congress- and another was
opposed to any legislation on the subject be-
lieving that the evils complained of should be
left to find remedy through competition.
The same difficulty occurred on the questions of
specie payment and paper currency. The
various opinions were generally in accordance
with the interests, or supposed interests, of
the sections of country which the gentlemen
represented, showing that the term national
applied to the body has not much meaning.

The CARTAGENA INSURGENTS. did a
country SO deplorably reveal her weakness at
sea as Spain is now doing. The insurgent
vessels have attacked the best vessels of the
government navy. They have made buc-
caneering expeditions to different parts of the
coast. They have captured not few of the
merchant vessels of the country. Their
boldness has grown with the occasion; and
now we are told that they intend to arm the
merchant vessels which have fallen into their
hands and use them against the government
All this presents in very unfavorable light

Brazil AND THE CHURCH. Baron Penedo,
an important Brazilian functionary, has
arrived in Rome on mission Of reconcilia-
tion to the Holy See. On Friday he proceeded
to the Vatican and presented his credentials
to the Pope 1t will be remembered that
about q year ago the Brazilian Parliament took
very much the same action towards theCatho-
lie Church as that which has been taken by
Italy and Germany, and more recently by
Mexico. We have no idea that any of those
powerful governments will go back upon
themselves. What they have done they will
stand by. 1t does not follow, however, that
reconciliation is impossible. The Papal gov
ernment will gain rather than lose by accept
ing the new departure, and to induce the
Papal government to come around to this
view Of the case is, no doubt the principal
object Of the mission Of Baron Penedo.

The New POLICE JUSTICES. s.-Short. sbarn
and decisive was the action of the Board Of
Aldermen yesterday in taking up and con-
sidering favorably the Mayors nominations
for Police Justiceships. Nine new magistrates
are to take their seats Immediately, and nine
of the old regime retire to the shades of private
life. Justice Bixby is the only magistrate Of
the ancient ten retained. The legal aphorism,
fiat justtio, has for him double meaning.

The wish is, unhappily, father to the thought.
He cannot understand that the very possibility
of further civil war in the United States perished
with slavery. No further cause of war exists.
No further cause of war is conceivable. The
interests of this whole people, from Maine to
California, are one and the same. Our canals
and our railroads, ever on the increase, are
binding the nation more and more into solid
unit. California is necessary to New York
and New York is indispensable to California.
Fifty years from now the population of the
United States will be such as to give us the
balance of power among the nations. In the
interests of the peoples and in the in
terests of commerce-for commerce is more
and more becoming the ruling power in the
world-it will be our duty to interfere to
prevent war. Too long have the peoples
suffered; too long has it been the privilege Of
monarchs to make war in obedience to their
own whims. Year by year we are reducing
the population of the European nations and
increasing our own. Our success-the peace
and prosperity Of this country will prove
most healthful example; and the might
and majesty of the greatest Republic
the world has ever known will act as deter
rent to rulers who, for personal or dynastic
reasons, would plunge their people into all
the horrors Of war. Is it not conceivable that
at no distant day, what with the rapidly in
creasing communication between the Old
World and the New, and the consequently in
creased and ever increasing influence of our re-
publican institutions on the European nations
the best part of Eurooe will be consolidated
