MoDERN DIPLoMAcY.-EyerybOdy knows the cir
cumstance of the Benedict treaty; how many casks
the Berlin correspondent of the London Daily Nsaos)
know the means by which Prince Bismarck obtained
the precious documenti Benedict had long been
harassing Bismarck with complaints that something
was due to France for Sadowa, and suggesting treat
les of various sorts, until, finally, Bismarck asked
him 10 make q draft of a convention wtich would
heal the wounded pride of the French. The unsus-
pecting diplomatist complied. He drew up his
treaty, carried it to the Foreign Office, and laid it
before the Minister. Bismarck began to read it,
when he was suddenly called out by o subordinate,
and excused himselfa moment from his guest, taking
the paper with him; but when he returned he did
not bring it. In the interval he had put it under
lock and key, and fatty refused to give it back to
Benedict. There have been different theories of the
origin of the treaty, but this is the semi-oficial Prus-
sian version of its capture; and as such the friends
of Prince Bismarck have always seemed proud to &C
cept ii. This is how papers were obtained in 1868.

We LEARN that a question has arisen between
the Collector General OF Customs and one Of the
importing houses of this city, as to the addition
of two and one-half per cent. which that official
claims as chargeable by him and to be added to
the value Of an invoice, under the amended Act
of 1874. The section under which the Collector
General claims his authority for making the
additional charge is, we presume, the following
''Section 550a. When the costs and charges do
not appear in the original invoice, two and one-half
per cent shall be added to the value Of the invoice
to cover the same. and on the total Of which the duty
shall be charged"
The particular invoice on which the question
arises in this case, has the following jurat OF the
shipper, with the usual Consular certificate
appended:
H. -, do solemnly and truly swear
that the invoice now produced and hereuntO annexed,
contains n true and faithful account Of the goods,
wares and merchandise therein described, at their
market value at -, at the time the same were
procured. and Of all charges thereon, and that the
said invoice contains no discounts, bounties or draw
backs but such as have been actually allowed
Now as We understand it, the Collector General
assumes to believe that the invoice, (notwith-
standing the sworn statement of the shipper,

The question propounded by our correspondent
"Aliquis lis a very natural one. Why, indeed,
should there be this distinction between letters
and newspapers or pamphlets. BY the Post
Convention, concluded in 1870, between the Ha-
waiian and American Governments, letters were
made interchangeable between the two countries
on prepayment in either, but not so with news
papers or other printed matter, in regard to
which it was declared "The awaiia Post
Office shall levy and collect on newspapers and
other articles of printed matter addressed to or
received from the United States, the regular rates
of postage chargeable thereon by the laws or
regulations of the Hawaiian Kingdom" These
are (Section 403, Civil Code): "Two cents on
each newspaper, price current, printed circular,
or other printed paper not being a pamphlet;
provided, however, that editors may reciprocate,
p~ost-free, with foreign editors. Four cents for
every pamphlet, containing less than fifty pages
eight cents for every pamphlet containing as
many as fifty pages, and less than two hundred
pages and twelve cents for every pamphlet con-
tanning 200 pages or upwards" Thus our cor
respondent will perceive what is the lac in this
matter propriety, and q sound public policy are,
however, quite another affair. Ii we are rightly
informed, Judge Alien, (who was the agent of
this Government in the negotiation of the Postal
Convention) endeavored to have newspapers and
other printed matter put upon the same basis of
exchange with letters, but was forced to be con-
tent with what he finally succeeded in obtaining.
