ABROAD.

The ko-Russian struggle is still
HELD in allegiance by preliminary ar
Engagements leading TO permanent
peace negotiations. Russia is dissatis-
fed in not securing, as she expected,
the moral support of Germany. The
threatened rupture between A lstria
and Russia is not so imminent as APP
pearanecs indicated a week since.
Bismarck, it is said, will effect recon-
citation between these two powers at
the congress. He is averse to an Anglo
Austrian alliance A triple alliance,
if formed, would be directed to the
humiliation of British influence abroad
Russia has renowned the occupation
of Constantinople, at the request of
the Emperor William. Austria is
mobilizing u full army corps, and
Hungary is resolved to defend her IN
terests, if necessary, by force. Eng
land is preparing for any emergency
that TIE future may develop in the
settlement of the Eastern question.

THE OUTLOOK.

The New York Herald takes Il
cheerful view of the future. 1t says:
We have better prospects to-day,
as nation, than we have had for
very many years. Our domestic troub-
les are settled, the southern States are
at least free from political strife, and
ut liberty TO reconstruct their shattered
business interests. The disturbances
in Europe can not fail to inure to our
benefit. If war is to continue the
United States must needs be the great
supply depot of Europe, not for grain
alone, but for most of the ncccssaries
of life and of war. If peace should be
proclaimed tomorrow it is very Ger
tain that it can only be peace in which
nations watching each other with ieal-
ously and suspicion, will sleep on their
swords. In either case the demand
for breadstutfs and other stores from
this side of the Atlantic will continue,
and the balance of the trade will be in
our favor. A general war woulf, in
addition, build up our shipping inter
ests, compel a change of our existing
laws and make New York; in a great
degree, the harbor for the commerce
of the world. a peace that would
leave England angry, dissatisfied and
watchful of the future; that would
raise apprehension and mistrust in
Austria's breast; that would sharpen
Germany'sappetite for Holland inhame
the ambition of Russia, would mean
the maintenance of large standing
armies in Europe and the outstanding
of extraordinary supplies. Producers
in either event would remain unpro-
ductive consumers.
If hostilities between Russia and
/ Turkey should cease on the instant it
would be necessary to keep a vast army
of occupation in the field pending the
payment of the war indemnity, so that
under any circumstances Europe must
look mainly to the United States for
supplies for year or two to come. 1t
is no longer predetermined whether
/ America would not be benefited by a
general European war. For the last
five or six weeks, under the effect OF
the war fever. the shipments of wheat
and other produce from this port have
been mprecedentcdly large, and the
fact that despite this unusual drainage
the quantity still in store IN New York
is considerably in excess of the past
four years average at the same
season.

THE ISSUE CLOSING,

The struggle is over in the Senate
on the Silver bill. 1t passed by a
vote of fsrty-eight to twenty-one. 1t
will now 20 to the House with the
amendments, and should that body
concur, it then goes to the President.
1t is his privilege to allow it to become
law without approval or disapproval
by n lapse of ten days; or return it
with his objections. In that event, it
will require n two-thirds vote to adopt
lit over his veto.
BY this bill silver dollars of four
hundred and twelve and one-hslt
grains arc an unlimited legal tender,
and its coinage and the profits thereof
belong to the Government instead of
10 owners of bullion. The minimum
amount of coinage per month is limited
TO two million dollars, and the max
imum four millions.
Though this measure is Il relief, vet
it does not meet the full demand of
the times. The coinage and deposit
of gold is unlimited, while the coinage
of silver is to be confined within
special bounds. 1t should be as free
as gold. The silvcritcs, who are the
true defenders of the interests of the
people, must see to it that eventually
this discrimination be removed.

LAMAR AND THE EAST.

This distinguished senator tramplcd
under foot the pro-silver resolutions of
the Mississippi legislature and voted
with the East and against the expressed
will of his constituents. The negro
senator, Bruce, was wiser than he.
Lamar thinks his personal influence
and moving cIoquence will be able to
silence public clamor at home and
avert public condemnation. He will
he mistaken. The position of Missis-
sippi on the silver question is not local,
but national, in its reach. Nine-tcnths
of the rank and file of the Democratic
party are warm friends of the measure.
Back of Mississippi is Il solid South,
and when Lamar voted against that
bill he outraged not only the public
sentiment of his State, but of all the
southern States He preferred the
fellowship Of Blaine, Conkling and
Edmunds to that of Voorhees,, Thur
man, Gordon and Beck. His wisdom
in thus voting is the wisdom of selfish
ambition. He plays bold hand for
eastern popularity. He thinks Lamar
has n rank bit in the mouth of Missis-
sippi, and II at that State dare not go
counter to his matchless judgment.
Let him be pointcdly disappointed.
No man, however imposing his abili-
ties, should be permitted to ride rough
shOd over the wishes of his people. In
the Senate he nominally halls from the
south, but represents eastern interests.
What a mockery-what a shame!

Two years ago there were one hun
dred and twenty-five colored students
attending Fisk University, at Nash
vile. Now there are three hundred,
of whom half are boarders. Every
southern State is represented.
Education is the great factor to
work out the future of the negro race
on this continent. When we turn and
behold the thousands of white youths
around us in Tennessee on the verge
of manhood and in total ignorance
We fear the influence of such benighted
citizenship. Not to educate the rising
generation is to enslave them.
