Our ship News by Gable.

During the past few days we have laid be-
fore our readers q record, reported by cable,
Of the movements of American ships in for
eign seas, as well as Of foreign ships on Ameri-
can voyages or carrying American cargo
Hitherto nothing like this has been attempted
on an adequate scale The movements of the
great steamers Of the transatlantic ferry COM
panies have been reported by cable both ways,
as was proper; but with this effort the regular
press enterprise seemed to have exhausted it
self, while the vast body Of vessels that make
up our commerce and bear abroad or to our
shores under our own flag and foreign flags
the products of our fields and workshops or
the consignments to our merchants from other
countries were only chronicled in the good old
drowsy way through the Post Office. Hence
forth we shall report regularly by cable all
movements Of ships in foreign seas in which
the American public can take an interest Our
arrangements have been made to get reports
of all arrivals, departures, casualties or other
facts of moment, not only in Europe, but in
Southern Asia, the Chinese seas and South
American waters, and we intend to make this
record as complete as it must be indispensa-
BILE to the shipowners and merchants Of this
metropolis.

The NATIONAL DEBT will be increased this
month, it is said, about five millions Of dol
lars. This is the first time for some years,
we believe, that such statement has been
made. Five millions in month is con-
siderable amount The causes have not yet
been stated, and it seems almost Incredible
that with the enormous incoming revenue
there should be such deficiency. At least
it could only be temporary. The coming
months will show, undoubtedly, different
state Of the Treasury ledger account.

Too HEAVILY CHARGED. Davis
earned his official salary in the Stokes case.
His three hours charge must have been an
exhausting labor. No doubt his sense of the
Nervousness of the prisoner offence dictated
the effort. Butan overloaded gun seldom hits
the mark and frequently bursts Can the mis-
directed verdict and the lamentable explosion
of Justice have been due to the extraordinarily
heavy charge poured into the jury by Judge
Davis?

FEAR OF FAMINE IN INDA.-A telegraphic
despatch from Calcutta, dated yesterday, states
that the crops are failing in all parts of the
province of Bengal and that there appears to
be no way of averting impending famine.
This is, indeed sad prospect, for the popula-
ton is dense in that part Of India. A deficient
crop and famine means, we fear, the death of
millions Of human beings. The potato disease
and consequent famine in Ireland few years
ago carried off about fifth of the popula-
ton, and should there be corresponding
disaster in Bengal the mortality would be
frightful Yet the prolific soil of India, as, in
fact, the soil of Ireland, does or could produce
more than enough to support the population
even though there may be q partial failure.
Is it not the pretended bene6cent government
of England, with its grinding social, political
and commercial system that is to blame
chiefly for such distress as occurred in Ireland
and that is now feared in India? Uuder q
good government and proper social and
political system starvation ought to be and
could be averted in almost all cases.

it in the case of Mr. Joseph Seavy, citizen

The QUESTION OF GOVERNMENT IN FRANCE.
Count de Chambord has just again defined
his crown claims before the French people in
o communication addressed to the members of
. delegation Of the Right He is emphatic
and positive in his reassertion of his position,
but, in reality, he presents nothing new. He
refuses to relinquish the white flag, and as
serts that he seeks to confde 'sall he holds
dear" to the soldiery Of France. The mon
archists have great work to accomplish, says
the Count (Which / am ready to undertake
any moment" 81 am the necessary pilot
for France and so on TO the end of the latest
chapter of the divine right epistle. The very
latest news from Paris reports that the Cham
bord declaration is regarded as being fatal to
the hopes of the monarchist party. The
French republicans are jubilant in proportion
to their conviction of speedy organization Of
the conservative Republic, and the nation is
evidently on the eve of very eventful crisis.

MEMPHIS RELIEVED AT LAsr.-From the
reports of the health authorities Of Memphis,
it appears that down to noon yesterday there
were twelve deaths from the yellow fever and
five from other causes; that the Warthan In
frmary is closed, having discharged all but
three patients, and that, from the general
abatement of the pestilence, it is expected that
the theatres will be reopened on Monday.
Yesterdays report from Montgomery, Ala,
says there had been no deaths from the fever
in that city for twenty-four hours and no new
cases, and that they had the heaviest frost of
the season yesterday morning. With these
and concurring reports from other places be-
fore u.s. we are encouraged to believe that
from repeated sharp frosts, extending in one
case, at least, even to the Gulf of Mexico, the
virus Of the yellow fever in the Southwest is
destroyed, that even Memphis is relieved of
the atmospheric poison. and that, in brief, the
epidemic has passed away.

RAPID TRANSIT QUESTION FOB LEG1sIA-
TORS Rapid Transit and West Side As
sociatons have resolved to ask every candidate
for the State Legislature, in writing, whether
he is in favor Of the construction Of steam
railroad through the island by the city, for the
use Of the people at the lowest possible rate Of
fare. We presume that the votes Of the
members Of the associations will be guided by
the replies they may receive. If they desire
to secure rapid transit, however, they should
vote for the law annexing to the city the lower
towns of westchester county. When the city
spreads out with her grading, paving, drain
age, lighting and street opening improvements
into these towns, rapid transit will become an
absolute necessity and will be certain to
follow.

FRANCE MAcMAHoN AND THE
ARMY.-General Bellamarre, having declared
that, in the event of the restoration of the
Bourbons, he should resign his position in the
French army, President MacMahon has issued
an order Of the day to the army denouncing
the insubordinate conduct of the refractory
General aforesaid, and appealing to the
patriotism of the soldiers to maintain disci-
plinc and support the laws. The crisis, mean
time, approaches when the question between
the Monarchy and the Republic is to be tried
in the Assembly, and apprehensions Of mis-
chief are thickening in contemplation Of the
possible consequences of the struggle.

A RieI Reformer.

The troubles of 1869-70 in the Red n,ver
country, which under the form of rebellion
against the authority of the Canadian govern
ment when the latter took the place OF the
Hudson Bay Company in ruling the half
breeds OF Fort Garry, brought one man to the
surface. The man was Louis Riel Far out
in the wilds of the West this young man,
having forsaken the counter, took to revolu-
ton. He raised the standard of revolt against
Winnipeg the sovereignty of an Independent
State They had hot little time of it for
while, and offered up the life of a man named
Scott on the altar of freedom. Then Canada
moved some companies of volunteers upon the
Red River Territory The horn-blowing
protesting, preparing, shrieking for vengeance
and talk of national boundaries, rights
and duties of neutrals, which preceded
the departure OF the volunteers, made
far more noise than the march OF
Kaufmann and his Cossacks upon Khiva-
1t was not much of party after all. There
was no fighting, which was modification,
of course, to the fiery citizen soldiers. Riel
had retired and the volunteers were compelled
to be satisfied with the glory of calling Winni-
peg by the prettier name Of Manitoba. But
Mr.. Riel was not to be snuffed out so easily,
and now we find that he comes back to civili-
zation q full-fedged member Of the Dominion
Parliament for the district of Provencher,
Manitoba. Mr.. Riel is about twenty-seven
years old, and enters parliamentary life as
reformer, after having begun his public career
four years ago as a rebel in small way.
