The melancholy report which we pub
lished yesterday concerning Mr.. GEORGE
WILLIAM CURTIS. will carry sadness to many
gentle and generous hearts. For more than
forty years he has held an enviable place In
the esteem OF the public and the affection Of
his friends: and the avorment that he has
been stricken by an incurable maady shocks
them with most painful surprise. AS an
author. q journalist, a moralist and social
and political reformer. Mr.. CURTIS has pursued
his own line Of thought and OF argument; but
in every case the aim he has kept in view has
always been elevated. sincere. and noble. As
an artist. We do not know whether we
should call tho Nile Notes OF Howadit or
Lotus Eating" tho finest OF his productions as
they were among the earliest Since the end Of
the civil war Mr.. CURTIS has directed his
labors away from pure literature rather
to politics and to civil service reform:
and whatever may have been gained by
politics. literature has certainly been the
loser. But let us pause: we are not writ
Ing his obituary. and We trust tho gloomy
diagnosis may prove to be erroneous. and that
this genial philosopher. this ever fresh and
interestin: writer. and this perfect gentleman
may long DO spared to instruct and delight his

NO AGREEMENT YET.
The Monetary Conference Likely to End in
Farce.


BRUSSELS, Dec. 15.-The committee
appointed by the international Monetary
Conference to consider the various pro-
jects submitted to the conference have
adopted a report in which they state that
i'm considering the various propositions
submitted them they confined themselves
to the study OF the general principles, and
did not discuss the details necessary TO
give the several proposals effect.
After reviewing the reasons for and
against the different plans, the report
concludes: Having regard for the fact
that the conference has not yet pro-
nounced on the general question. the
committee do not feel justified in taking
a vote on the projects referred TO them,
or attempting to formulate a compromise
between the varying monetary doctrines
advanced"
Senator Jones. of the United States
delegation, made a strong speech Of two
hours duration. Whatever might be the
result OF the conference, he said, after
an able argument. II some measure Of
relief was not willingly adopted Ia the
near future they might rest assured that
ultimately the xreat producing masses Of
the world would crystalize into law their
imperial WILL
Senator Allison also spoke. He promised
that the United States would accept any
scheme that met with general approval.
The next and probably the last session Of
the present conference will be held on
Tuesday. IL will then be moved that
the conference adjourn to June 9Th with
out dissolving.

THE EREPUBLICSDANGER
THE FRENCH PREMIER's ELOQUENT
APPEAL TO THE CHAMBER.
VI. Brisson Receives n Set Back for HIS
Censorship-Method of Conducting
the Panama Inquiry.

PARIS. Dec. 15-At Cabinet meeting
held at Elysee to-day, NJ. Bourgers. Minis
ter Of Justice, announced that he would op-
pose in the Chamber Of Deputies the pro-
posal OF N. Pourquery De Boisserln 10
invest the Panama investigation comnis-
sion with judicial powers.
When the question came up in the
Chamber of Deputies to-day the galleries
were crowded. Every deputy was in MS
place, and an atmosphere Of intense ex-
element pervaded the house.
NJ. Hubbard, member for Seine-et-Oise,
opened the discussion by calling for the
Immediate discussion of the Boisserin
proposals, and NJ. RiDot, Premier, sup
ported the motion.
NJ. Brisson, president of the investi-
eating committee moved that the Cham
Der adjourn. The committee he said
would have no difficulty in fulfilling its
task under existing circumstances. II,
however, the Boisserin proposals we're
brought to discussion with the approval
of the Chamber the committee would sup
port them In the name of the committee
NJ Bris5on then made an attack upon Nj.
Ribot and NJ Bourgers He accused them
Of not showing proper zeal in pressing
forward the investigation and or giving
but half-hearted support to the investlSa-
ton committee.
NJ. Bourgers answered for the Govern
ment. The Ministry. he said. was deter
mined to bring the matter to settlement,
and he stated briefly the reasons OF the
Government for opposing the Boisserin
bill. The question was put to vote
amid some confusion, and the decision IN
favor of proceeding with the discussion
of the bill, in accordance with the Gov
ernment's desire, was carried by 42i
against 122.
Immediately after the vote it was re-
ported that in consequence of this re-
verse NJ. Brisson would retire from the
presidency of the committee.
The way to the consideration or the
Boisserin bill was clear and Nj. Bourgers
proceeded to state forcibly the objections
of the Ministry to ii
NJ Brisson replied that perhaps the
ministry was the power most ininical
to Republican union. This innuendo
aroused a storm Of protests. amid which
NJ Ribot rose. 1t was OF supreme mo-
ment 90 the Republic, he said, that the
Government should have the support OF
the United Republicans. The Government
had decided to institute fresh legal pro-
ceedings, calculated to throw the utmost
possible light upon the canal company s
affairs. (Applause)
The vote at the end Of the discussion
was I'll to go against the Boisserin pro-
posals. 1t is regarded as tantamount
to an expression of confidence In the Gov
ernment.
NJ Brisson has summoned the investi-
eating committee to meet tomorrow
when he and the committee OF the ex-
treme right areaexpected to resign.
