Panic Doetorinr.

The editor of the Indianapolis
journal has this sensible article ON
this sort Of doctoring for the cure of
panics: tA7
Some Of the financial doctors talk
about preventing panics" by this,
that or the other scheme. The idea
is absurd, and only shows the shall
lowness of those who advance it. Fl
nancial panics can not be prevented.
They arc not caused by any particular
kind Of currency, nor by the absence
Of any particular kind They have
their roots deep in human nature and
the fixed laws of business. They have
happened at somewhat regular inter-
walls in all commercial countries, and
will continue to happen while the
world lasts-not always in the same
form or with the same incidents. They
will happen, nevertheless. Our dis
cussions should look not to preven-
ting panics, for that can not be done,
but to controlling them and lessening
their effects. -.

What the English Say-A Russian March to
the LeYantand the Persian Gulf.

The London Telegraph writing on the
subject of the Russian assault on Khiva,
and of the interests of Great Britain and
other great Powers, at present neutral, in
the issue of the campaign says:
England, India, Persia and Turkey may
well ask what is the aim of Power which
has advanced a thousand miles to become
the master of an oasis in the Oxus. We
have an imperial promise that the occupa-
tion shall not be prolonged; but Prince
Gortschakof has already dwelt on the ex-
treme difficulty of retreating from any
point once possessed. Except on the
Pruth and Danube, under restraint, there
is no instance of Russian retrogression.
The Emperor may find that he cannot
keep his promise in the face of mill
tary, political and commercial pressure.
What then, is sought by the men who con-
troll Russian policy by dint offaits accom-
pills Here we have an advance which
may end in doubling the charge upon the
exchequer; project of conquest useless
save for ulterior ends: an enterprise which,
if it stops short at Khiva, will be costly
and burdensome. What is there, asks Sir
Henry Rawlinson, to compensate Russia
for throwing away million year, not to
speak of the sacrifice of soldiers lives?
