The New York herald., 1874-12-08

night is the trouble inseparapIe from all ques-
tions of this character. The large moneyed
interests who profit by the sale of books do
not care to surrender their profit to crafty
o sentiment in favor Of foreign authors.
This interest is large enough in America
and England to prevent any serious
consideration of international copyright;
for the moment the question assumes force
the whole trade interest will be thrown against
IL, both in Congress and in Parliament The
general sentiment Of the English people and
the American people would certainly be in
favor of the treaty. If any American reads
novel by George Eliot, or Dickens, or the
poems of Tennyson, he certainly feels that it
would be more satisfaction to him to know
that q part of the money he paid for the book
went into the possession of the author The
argument that international copyright need
necessarily increase the price of books is un-
sound, as q provision could be made limiting
the operation of the copyright law.
Mr. Morgan has done a public service by
calling attention to the legal aspects of the
question, and his letter to us will be read with
great interest and pleasure.
The New York herald., 1874-12-08
international Copyright.

We publish this morning an interesting and
valuable communication from James Apple
ton Morgan discussing the whole question Of
international copyright. Mr.. Morgan pre-
sents the case with clearness and learning.
The conclusion Of his argument is:-''The
fact that work can be furnished to the public
more cheaply by appropriating the property Of
its author therein than by paying for it is
surely very little credit to anybody. Nor is
the spectacle of two mighty nations stealing
each others books and squabbling for The
difference of three dollars and half in their
price either exemplary or edifying" The
question of international copyright has been
q favorite topic of discussion for many
years in England and America. When
Dickens came to this country, more than
thirty years ago, it was for the purpose
of inducing Americans to accept q copyright
treaty with England, and those who read his
american Notes. cannot fail to see that much
of the acrimony he showed toward the United
States arose from his want of success in Sc
curing this treaty Mr. Dickens interest in
this matter was necessarily very great, as he
was then the most popular writer in the English
language, and continued so during his life.
A copyright treaty would have added very
largely to his income, and, no doubt, the same
would be true in reference to the majority of
English writers, especially of fiction, whose
works are more generally read in America,
perhaps, than in England. The injury, if
we may so use the word, to authors
like Tennyson, Thackeray, George Eliot
Macaulay and others, arising from the absence
of copyright, is counterbalanced by the injury
to American authors like Longfellow, Poe,
Fenimore Cooper and Bret Harte, whose
books are published by the thousand in Eng
land without any copyright. We suppose,
however, that the balance has been in favor of
the United States, as there is q larger proper
ton of books which come to America from
England than 60 from America to England.
Tho only trouble about international copy

The Treasury Report.

The recommendations Of Secretary Bristow
in respect to resumption of specie payments
are elsewhere fully considered in connection
with the opinions advanced by the President
in his Message, and We would here briefly
call attention to other important subjects in
cluded in the Treasury report. The exhibi-
ton Of receipts and expenditures shows that
in the fiscal year ending June 80, 1874, the
net revenues Of the government were
$3.50, 478,756 and the ordinary expenses
s287, 133, 873, leaving surplus revenue of
$2,3448 1882. In the first quarter of the present
fiscal year the net ordinary receipts were
$50. 1884, 2S5, and the total ordinary expendi-
lures $85, ,313, 4S9. The receipts for the whole
year are estimated at 1884, 318, ,285, and the
expenditures at 1915, ,315, 4s9 which leaves
surplus of $9.OO2,7 ,796 to be applied to the
sinking fund. As the law requires that the
sum OF $31, ,096, 545 shall be set apart for this
purpose there will be deficiency in the
sinking fund account on June 30, 1875, Of
500, ,093, 74S. The progress made in refund
ing the national debt is exhibited. The
reports of the national bank system prove, in
Mr.. Bristows opinion, that there is o large
amount of currency in excess of the legitimate
needs Of business, and that the argument is
fallacious that expansion is the proper
remedy for the general depression. The
present tendency to decline in revenue
from customs is then considered, and
it is intimated that the legislation Of
Congress at it's late session has encouraged
smuggling. The exhibit Of the internal reve-
nue. receipts is regarded as satisfactory.
There is little Improvement in the foreign
carrying trade. Over seventy-two per cent of
our imports and exports were during the last
fiscal year carried in foreign vessels. The
life-saving service is examined and its bene-
fits are thought to fully justify its expense.
The lighthouse service, coast survey, marine
hospitals, steamboat inspection and other de-
partments are reported to be in q satisfactory
condition. One point upon which Secretary
Bristow dwells with much earnestness is the
importance Of rigid economy in the public
expenditures. He says, with force, that
government cannot long exist in prosper
Gus condition without the confidence of
the people, and that confidence will be given
OF withheld accordingly as the governme mt is
faithfully, honestly and economically adj
ministered or otherwise" This is truism,
but it is easily lost sight Of and can hardly be
urged too often. The report is better writ
ten than is generally the case with official
documents: but 1t is. with the exception Of o

KING KALAKAUA.- reception of His
Majesty of Hawaii in California, the incidents
of his voyage, and his opinions of America, as
expressed in an interview with the HERALD
correspondent, are the snbject of our letter
from San Francisco to-day. AS this real King
advances toward the capital the desire to see
him increases, for though the American people
do not want king of their own they are
very hospitable to their royal visitors. 1t is o
satisfaction To look upon a king and reflect

RAPID TRANsrT.-The opportunity Of the
Mayor elect is one which both sense of pub
Lie duty and personal ambition FORBID him to
neglect. Mr.. Wickham can use the influence
of his Office to procure rapid transit for New
York, and thus serve its imperative wants and
win for himself greater fame than any previ-
GUS Mayor has enjoyed. But if the people
arc not to 90 fast Mr.. Wickham may be sure
he will 90 slow, and we trust he appreciates
the fact that his own progress Is dependent on
that of the city.

THE v1cKsBURa R1or. The arrest of the
negro Sheriff, Crosby, in vicksburg, yester-
day, resulted in another Of those petty wars
which humiliate the South. Bodies Of
negroes, numbering in all about seven hun
dred, attacked the city from different
roads, but were repulsed with considerable
losses of killed and wounded. Some of the
leaders were arrested, and one of them.
Owens, implicated the Sheriff in this bar
barous affair. The startling point Is,
however, that Governor Ames is as-
cused Of instigating the negro invasion:
but it is impossible to believe, except upon
convincing evidence, that be could have in
spired movement which might have ended
in massacre and in the plunder of an Amexi-
can city.

The Starvation In Nebrssks.

We have heard of the ravages OF the grass
hoppers in Nebraska as remote matter Of
news, and considerable fun has been made Of
that formidable insect but few persons por-
haps appreciate the immense suffering tho
people Of that State have endured. General
Brisbin's visit to New York, under tho author
ity OF the relief societies and the Governor.
will, however, make deep impression upon
the community, and the story of the
want, starvation and wretchedn ass which he
saw during tour of the desolated region. az
related in an interview published in the
HERALD to-day, must convince every thought-
full person of the importance Of extending i'm
mediate relief. General Brisbin saws the
scenes he Witnessed would take stout heart
to bear. The crops were destroyed in newly
settled country and all the farmers have suf-
fered alike. They have not the ability to help
each other, for all are equally destitute, ana
SO an entire community at the beginning Of
winter is dependent upon outside help. Ne
braska has done oil that is possible, and for
six weeks has fed these poor people at cost
of forty thousand dollars o month. But
winter has increased the suffering, and more
food and clothing must be supplied As all
of the settlers are from other States, aad
many of them natives of New York.
there are special reasons why the
whole country should help them until
new crops can be planted General
Brisbins eloquent appeal for help will be
needed by the philanthropy of this wealthy
and generous city. Contributions of all kinds
can be sent to the headquarters, at No. IL
Barclay street, and clothing is especially
needed Our starving and naked brethren
plead with us, not as beggars, but as American
citizens who have been ruined by terrible
calamity, and that they are SO far away but
adds to the sadness and desperation Of their
state.
