LONDON, October 0.-There exists no fur
thsr doubt that England has received salts

In few dsysI hope to receive fun particu-

you specially before this reaches you,

When England was asked to recognize the
Serrane government there was hitch-no-
BODY seemed to know the reason-and IN
order to avoid everything which might have
the appearance Of .'huekstering. the mat
ter was kept very secret. Enough. how
ever, has transpired to assert that Lord
Derby was firmly resolved not to recognize
the Spanish Executive unless the Viroinius
question found q solution. If the chief of
the foreign Office argued ''you are sufIi-
GENTLY strong as a government to demand
recognition" surely the excuse which
hitherto stood in the way Of settlement
falls on the ground. That excuse, / am
told, was founded 0na non p0ssNmus pnnci-
pie, viz. that Serrano was not sufficiently
in the saddle to face the Spanish nation
with demand for the settlement of the
pending difficulty. The Spamards had
finally to yield, and, rather than forego
England's good will, and to secure recogni-
ton, the Virginius Chains were formally
recognized and probably paid. On the lat
ter point some doubt exists, but in a few
days shall be able to clear up these doubts
and receive positive information in what
form the settlement was obtained

NAPOLEON ~. AND HIS SANGUINR Ex-
PEcTATIoNs.- Prince Imperial Of
France, Napoleon w., has returned from
his holiday on the Continent with his moth
er, and has resumed his studies at the
Royal Military Academy at Woolwich. It
is said that he expresses thoroughly boy
ish confidence in the Napoleonic star, and
speaks often of the time when he will en-
terrain his. cadet friends at the Tuileries.
OF course, the Tuileries will have TO be re-
built. The Princeisa decidedly bright and
intelligent lad, full Of animal spirits and Of
rollicking humor, which betrays him into
sundry practical jokes; he does more extra
drill, in the way of punishment, than any
other of his comrades. Though he had 70

ing to the peculiar difficulties Of his posi-
ton, he has gained twelve places since his
admission to the school, and dcvotes him.
self with special ardor to the study Of the
science in which his uncle excelled, and Of
which his father said, in letter written
shortly before his death to Major Duncan,
that leach Of his improvements was O step
IN the progress Of civilization. Napoleon
III. referred to artillery, and his disinter-
ested admiration for that science is al the
more praiseworthy after his unpleasant ex-
perience Of its effects at Sedan. -Aeio York

OUR panic in September of last year was
the herald of remarkable fall in prices of the
leading staple Of trade, which seems to be the
beginning of q permanent reaction against the
initiation prices oceasioned by the immense pa
perissues necessitated by the war. Compar-
ing present quotations with those of year
previous in the English trade, for example,
the following reductions are seen: Wheat,
twentySeven per cent; COAL twenty eight per
cent; iron, twenty-one per cent; copper,
seven per cent. tin, twenty-five per cent. cot
ton, ten per cent; wool, eight per cent. AS
values naturally equalize each other in mar
kets with free intercourse, this reduction
abroad implies similar fall in our home mar
kets; decline which must extend till 1t en-
braces the whole field of commercial activity,
and brings prices from their exaggerated and
inflated basis to natural and healthy level.
Within the past twelvemonth a good begin
ming has been made in this direction, and the
reaction will probably extend to complete full
fillment

about dinner time, he called at the house Of
gentleman and asked II be could get din

piled, telling him ct what hour to come.

the appointed moment, with visions Of q
good dinner in his imagination, to be par
taken Of In the company Of the honest man
aud his interesting family. The good man
comes out and thus addresses the hungry
ex-Confederate and civil rights advocate:
Major Whitley, I understand that you
voted for the civil rights bill, the object Of
which is the degradation Of the Southern
whites to the level Of the negroes; you are
candidate for reelection 70 Congress, and

hence you believe in social equality. Ishali

A NUMBER of the Charlotte North Caro-
lina) Homo, says the Shreveport Tines, con-
tanning the following paragraphs reached
US the very day Of Major Merrili's arrival
here, but We were then reluctant TO publish
it, hoping he might have repented Of his
manifold sins. Believing now that such a
thing as repentance has not entered his
thoughts, we submit the structures ''to
candid world"
The Vulture Again. We had not heard
from Lewis Merrill for so long time that
we hoped his thievery had stopped for
awhile. But we see that Grant, needing
dirty tools once more, has sent Lewis to
Louisiana. TIE buzzard always finds the
dead carcass. This is what the Atlanta
Neaos has to say Of the precious scamp:
President Grant has sent Major Merrill to
Louisiana. This man is the brute who
scourged poor South Carolina in 1871. In
solent domineering, brutal and heartless,
he is precisely the sort of man to tyrannize
over defenseless people. His own subor-
dinate officers were ashamed Of his rufIian-
ism in 1871, and one of them told the wri-
ter that he regarded the conduct Of Merrill
as that Of cowardly BLACKBOARD. A filter
and dirtier tool Of despotism could not be
found.
