The Fleet at Rio.

Rio Janeiro, Jan. 16. - Every officer
who can be spared from the American
feet is today the guest Of the American
colony In the city, the programme OF en-
iertainment running all of the changes
from automobile races to baseball teams,
and from garden parties to elaborate
home receptions.
This is the first time since the fleet
arrived Sunday that the American col
ony has had the officers entirely to them
selves.
President Penns's declaration ap-
proving the Monroe doct'iue is still the
Topic of the hour snd is highly pleasing
TO the American officers. The diplomatic
corps here ascribes the failure of the
officers of the German cruiser Bremen to
lake part 10 the festivities at tbs palace
to their chagrin over the official utter
aDces o: the Brazilian President. Little
credence is placed in the report that the
slight fight between wateRmeu and sailors
Monday night was inspired by q foreign
source in order to make trouble between
Brazil aud America. 1t is fact, though,
that the row was forecasted in dispatch
from Paris, which said that "Germau
Influence" would cause trouble between
the Brazilans and Americans.

Government expenditures are to be in

WHAT appears to many people to have
been another most unnecessary step 10
the Midgets case was taken last night
when the prisoner, who had been res
pited for thirty days, was removed from
the city Jail and taken to the county for
"safe keeping 1; is reported thai
.'some in authority" in this city had in
formed the governor that lynching
would follow if he committed the death
sentence of MiJge,s, and it was only
after he had gotten into communication
by wire with Judge Barley and Com
monwealh's Attorney Brent, who then
informed him that Midgets could be pro-
Sscted, that he decided to respite the
prisoner. From diligent inquiry 1t can
be stated that most of the lyuchiDg talk
concerning Midgeis comes from "some
10 authority" There surely is no gen.
ersl sentiment 10 favor of hanging the
man; but, of course, if "GOme in author
ity" keep up their talk some foolish
psople may be induced to attempt vio-
Ieuce. The removal of Midgets from
the city together with the talk of lynch
ing is a serious reflection upon the city,
and may have the effect of making
thoughtless people believe that Alexsn-
dris, with populs ion of fifteen thous-
Ond people, is unable to take care of her
prisoners.

THURSDAY EVENING. JAN. 10. 1858.

A DISPATCH from London says En-
gland is alarmed for Japau's future.
British statesmen think the combined
political and financial crises there is about
the most serious any nation could pos
sibly face. Il needed only a glance at
the country's balance sheet to tell some
time ago just what was cOrning, but no
one seemed to appreciate the imminence
or extent of the danger. The past few
days' developments showed the world
how grave the situltion really is. One
thing is certain. There will be no fur

war against any other power In the
world for long time to come. Even
with the best of luck and management
British statesmen and fnsnciers say
they can't figure how the Miksdo can
wiring between 500 and sos per snnum
from each one of his subjscts-the poor
est of any people on esrth-until the
war debt is paid, II he fails japan
will get into the bankruptcy court
For a. government in this situation to
talk about war against the United States
is too ridiculous 10 be discussed by Euro
psan newspapers, though good many
of them did discuss it when Admiral
Evaus's armada started from Hampton
Roads for the California coast. Outside
of a sentimental unwillingness to see
their ally iu a state Of hopeless inSol'
vsncy, Euglishmen have too much ID
vested in Japan to anticipate its "Sus'
pension" with anything but keen alarm.
The crumbling of the MikadO's cabinet
ia regarded there rs an incident purely
of financial difficulty. There is grave
doubt whether the vacancies can be per-
manently filed without national cleo
ton, and the stirring up of popular feel
ing by an election just now is admittedly
dangerous. 1t will be stirred by tht
financial crisis If not by the election
however. The above shows that people
in positions to know whereof they speak
are not looking through Capt. Hobson'i
lenses. The latter in an address in
Washington last night was unable to
see anything save the dogs of war on a
rampage.
