A submarine volcano has broken ont nine miles
northwest of the island of Ter ce ir a. and np to latest
dates it had formed an inlet extending three miles
east and west, andras still in action.
A cemetery was lately flooded near Manchester,
England, and the looso, sandy soil was so much
disturbed that several recently interred coffins and
their contents floated away. However, all the
bodies were eventually recovered.
The Paris Exposition has declared the fact that
England has stood still as regards mechanical ex?
cellence, while other nations of Europe-notably
Fracce, Prussia, Ans tri J, Belgium and Switzerland
-have made rapid progress.
The city of Lincoln, the future capital of Ne?
braska, has been located by commissioners. It is
about fifty-one miles from Omaha and in Lancas?
ter county, one mile from Salt Basin. Seventy-five
thousand acres ofState lands have been selected
in the neighborhood.
A leading Madrid banker who went to Borne dur?
ing the centenary, waa seized with cholera on his
way home and died. It is now found that the
whole of his vast property has been left to the
Pope, and his heirs openly contend that the will
was made under undue influence, and that thoy
will contest ito validity.
Dr. RAMIE, of Munich, has, by recent experi?
ments, confirmed the discovery made by MEISSNER,
that a true fermentable sugar existe in the muscle,
which is increased by muscular action (tetanisa
tion caused by strichnine or electricity); and, fur?
ther, that the livor has no effect ha causing this
increase, for the sugar is proved to aria o in tho
muscio itself, and not from muscular substance.
The moralling candles used in Germany are
? made hy heating paraffine with the shells of the
jatviadMa nut, which contain a black .resin solu?
ble in paraffine. While the paraffine is liquid, i?
is of a dark brown color, bot on becoming solid it
is jet black. When the candles mado of such
colored paraffine have a very thin wick, they burn
without giving off any unpleasant odor or vapor.
The Washington Chronicle' discusses the rela?
tions of the President and Secretary of War, com?
paring the latter to CABNOT, and eulogizing him as
the bulwark against treason and treasury plunder?
ers. It declares that the Secretary a removal will
]>e a nullification of the law of Congress, and an
announcement of a despotic purpose. It seems
there are two sides to every question.
A letter from Trieste, in the Wanderer, of
'vienna, aays the acconntagiven by travellers com?
ing from Montenegro about the cholera are fright?
ful. In a district of the Herzegowine, in a popu?
lation of thirty-two thousand souls, eighteen hun?
dred cases have appeared. Everybody is flying
from the contagion, and the dead bodies are left
M a prey to the dogs.
The Atlantic Cable of 1866, broke fifty miles
from land on the 20th of Jury. Thc fact was at
once announced in the English papers, bnt
we in America were not considered strong
enough to bear such intelligence. So we had to
wait for the papers to bring tho news. We shall
"be obliged to wait a long time to hear that the
damage is repaired.
The New York Tribune has the following hit at
Ex-Governor PEEBT : "Ex-Governor PEBBT, of ?
Booth Carolina, has published a series of elaborate
measurements of the skulls of the chimpanzee, tho
gorilla, the negro and the white man, by which he
disco vera that the enfranchisement of the negro is
a grievious wrong to the monkeys and himself.
The profundity of his argument will command the
respect of the world; but before accepting its con?
clusion we wrrald like Mr. PEEBT to furnish the
exact measurement of his Own head. We want an
absoluto standard of comparison. Will Mr. PESEY
furnish it?" ,
M. Jouta FAVRE, who was to havo defended
BEBEZOWSEI, but didn't, has dono nothing lately
to diatingni?h himself except to marry his daugh?
ter to the private secretary of MAXXUXLIAN, a youth' |
rejoicing in the poetical name of BOT GOMEZ ns
SAAHEDBA. It is difficult to imagine what benefit
could accrue to the family of the famous deputy
from connection with the secretary of the ruined
archduke ; ao difficult, indeed, that the inquiring
mind is almost ted to beUav? that the marriage
took place merely because the fiances were in lore
J with each other. But such an event is so rare in
France (ai least among good families), that the
supposition is almost incredible.
The word " sugar," says the Scientific American,
is derived from tho Bengalee word shukkur, which
is stu! in use in India. The Chinese were ac?
quainted with the process of manufacturing sugar
from cane more than two thousand years ago, but
Europe did iot u?e it to any extent prior to the
discovery of the West Indies. Chinese sugar was
need in small quantities in Europe in the early
timos aa a medicine. Although sugar cane is gen?
erally supposed to be indigenous to America, it
bas never been found growing wild on this conti?
nent. It was probably introduced by tho early
Portuguese discoverers. Next to the British, the
people of the United States use more sugar than
anv other nation in the world.
Tera Crux correspondence, dated July 16, states
that among the Americans resident in that city
great disaffection was expressed at the action of |
Secretary SEW ABD in appointing OTTEBBOUBO,
whose commission as Minister, it was rumored,
had arrived by the cutter Wilderness. It was
stated that his antecedente were all in favor of j
the reactionary party, and, on attempting at one
timo to effect an agreement between BAZAINE and
POBFTBIO DIAZ for the surrender of Mexico city,
the latter refused to have anything to do with
tho master on account of OTTEBBO?BQ'S connec?
tion therewith. About one thousand Austrians
were in the country, unable, for want of means, to
get back to Europe.
Two weeks ago the minister of one of the churches
at Haneworth, Columbia County, New York, learn?
ing that his daughter was keeping company with
a young man he did not like, inflicted upon the
girl a severo chastisement with a birch rod, badly
bruising and discoloring her flesh. The next Sun?
day the preacher, on retiring from the church,
ascertained thai she had gone to a neighbor's
house. He went to find her, and waa met by the
young map who exhibited to him a marriage cer?
tificate. The young couple had been married
while he was in the pulpit. The son-in-law coolly
announced that as the young woman was under
his protection he should not allow any further use
of birch whips upon her person, and then bade him
good day.
An earthquake and volcanic disturbance, similar
to those, at Santeria, have occurred in the two
islands of Tercera and Gracioza, off the Portu?
guese coast. ' On the night of tho 1st of Juno a
volcano rose from the sea, about nine miles north
of Serxati, and has since been in a state of great
activity. It has thrown up enormous masses of |
stone and lava, and has formed a new island, which
is likely to be dangerous to navigation. Sulphur
and other vapor are emitted in largo quantity.
The boats hare not been able to approach the now
deposit, because of its incandescence and the dan?
gerous character of the volcanic emanations. M.
SATST-CLATEE DSVZLLE has asked tho French Aca?
demy to appoint some geologist to inquire into and
report upon the facts as in the case of theSantorin
volcano.
Lieutenant JOHN C. BBATNE, late of the Confed
. erato navy, is now held by the government in the
King's county, (N. Y.) penitentiary, for alleged
acts of piracy daring the war. Ho has written a
letter to Captain SUMES, in which he says : On
the faith of the President's proclamation of May 2,
1865, which pardoned all officers of my grade who
had not been in the old army or navy-and I had
not been-returned to the United States, and was
residing in Savannah, Georgia, where I had been
engaged in business, when I was arrested. I have
been a prisoner since the 15th of September, 1866,
and not one af my Southern countrymen has called
to see me. I cannot think that it is their intention
to desert me, though I must say it looks very much
like it. I am perfectly destitute of money and
clothing, and have no means at my command to
pay counsel's fees.
Before leaving London the Lord Mayor received
from POAD PACHA, tho Turkish Minister for For?
eign Affairs, a communication in the French lan?
guage, forwarding a donation by his Imperial
Majesty of ?2500, to be distributed among tho in- 1i
digent chases of the city of London. Simulta- j j
neoualy with this donation by tho Sultan, a splen?
did present by the Viceroy of Egypt to tho Lady
Mayoress was received by hor ladyship, as a token
of the munificent hospitality shown to him at tho
recent entertainment given at the Mansion Houso
in honor of his Highness. It is a brooch of ex?
quisite beauty and great intrinsic value, being i <
composed of one magnificent pearl, surrounded 1
by sixteen large brilliants of the finest water,
with eight radiations of brilliants, terminated by
others equally large, while depending from the
'centre pearl, which is of extraordinary size, are J1
chains of diamonds supporting four large pear-1 f
shaped pearls. j c

ALLUDING TO THE threatened action against tho
proprietor of tho lato Day newspaper by a gentle?
man who claims a copyright in that title, tho
Publishers' Circular suggests a "serious consid?
eration" which it behoves has never before been
pointed out. "Wo refer," it save, "to the case of
newspapers and periodicals loug established
and of high reputation. Tata tho case of tho
Times or the Quarterly Review, not to Bpeak of
tho Annual Registe,' or tho Gentleman's Magazine.
What is the foundation of tho right of those jour?
nals to their respective titles ? If it is based on
nothing but the ordinary copyright law-and we
aro not awaro that it could bo basod upon any?
thing oise-all exclusive right to thom must long
since have expired; and it must bo opon to any
one to publish to-morrow a newspaper, or reviow,
or magazine, with any ono of those names. For
literary copyright only exists for forty-two years,
or for tho lifo of tito author and soven roars after?
wards; nay, whon the journals wo refer to, and
many others besides, wcro first established, it ex?
isted for a much shorter term, aud that torm was
oxtended by Justice TALFOUED'S act in the caso of
copyrights not at that timo expired." The london
Reviejo says : "Tho point is a very ingenious one,
and docs indeed open a curious subject for debate;
but Tro should imagine that the continuous publi?
cation from day to day, from week to week, from
montai to month, or from year to year, would se?
cure permanent ' copyright of tho title." Air.
WATTS, the successor to Mr. PANIZZI in tho library
of tho British Museum, has caused some calcula?
tions to be mado with reference to tho amount of
Bpaco occupied by nowspapors and other periodi?
cals in that institution. According to t ao result of
these inquiries, as published in tho Newspaper
Press, the collection of newspapers in tho new
library is kept in 444 prosscs, containing 9982
superficial foot. The space occupied by the news?
papers is 41G2 feet 8 inches, thus divided : London
newspapers, 1C75 foot; Provincirl. 1059 feot 8
inches ; Scotch, 288 feet ; Irish, 39G feet ; Foreign,
744 foot-total, 4162 feet 8 inchos. Tho periodical
publications are in 390 presses, containing 9851
superficial feet. lu tho old library, the collection
occupies a space of 451 yards 4 inches, and in tho
new library 2821 yards 2 foot and ll inches.
Oro HEADERS are aware that a strike occurred
in almost all branches of manufacturo in Pitts?
burg in February last. It has continued, except
in a portion of the manufactories, over since, until
the lost week. For its duration, and tho numbers
of workmen and manufactories involved, it is with?
out parallel in this country. The Pittsburg Com?
mercial sums up as follows tho results of this great
strike: "Tho number of men out of employment,
March 1, was estimatod to be as follows : Paddlers,
700; helpers, na? laborers, and others dependent
on the work of tho puddlers for support, 3000;
miners on the south sido, of tho Monongahela,
on the Yougioghony, and tho Pennsylvania
railroad, 1000; iron moulders, 1C0; laborers
dependent on their work for employment,
1000; glass-blowers, SOO; laborers dopendont on
them for work, 700. This makes tho total number of
men out of employment at that timo, 7000. An aver?
age of three dollars per day for theso men would bo
a low estimate at the prices paid at tho timo of tho
strike; at this rato from January 15 to March 31
the wages paid would have been about $1,802,000.
At this time somo of tho mills starting furnished
part of the men with work. Allowing 5000 to have
been out of employment since that timo, and to ro?
main so until tho now arrangement goes into ef?
fect, and their wagos at tho samo rato would
amount to $1,680,000. The total amount of monoy,
had the mills uot stood idle, that would havo been
paid ont there foro is $2,982,000. This estimate,
perhaps, will not cover half the loss which our
city has sustained by the lock-out. It is no won?
der that all parties are glad to see tho matter
satisfactorily arranged."
We have tho authority of a gentleman engaged
in the wheat trade, whose exp?rience extends back
for many years, for the statement that the quality
of tho crop this year is not fino. Tho great bulk
of it is only fair. The proportion of fino is unusu?
ally small. Besides, it is uncom nonly dark in
color. This is owing to the irregular manner in
which the grain ripened. To cut a part of the
crop which matured earliest, before tho grain be?
gan to shatter in the cutting, farmers were forced
to cat mach that was not ripe enough. The con?
sequence is that tho wheat is dark. The quantity
coming in indicates that tho crop is not more than
one-fifth of the ordinary crop boforo tho war. There
oro several reasons for this: 1st. The h bor
of the country is not steady and orderly, and
tho product per man is greatly reduced, though
not to the extent of four-fifths; for-2d. Thcro is
not money in the country to buy guano for its ap?
plication to wheat, as beforo the war, and that
very much diminishes tho yield per aero of tho
land seeded, notwithstanding tho season was un?
commonly favorable. 3d. For tho vant of money
to pay for labor, and to keep teams and ploughs in
tho proper order, it has been impossible to culti?
vate the soil as faithfully as formerly, and that
affected tho yield very unfavorably. Lot us hopo
that in a year or two the farmers will rocuporate,
and labor becoming better settled, wo ?ball havo
better results from farming. What comes out of
tho earth is, after all, our only true wealth, and wo
cannot recover a great deal until that is supplied
liberally and steadily.
LAST SATUBDAY, says tho Albany Argus, a Doc?
tor of Divinity, residing in Rochester, ami a pro?
fessor in the Rochester University, took tho cars
from Boston to Albany. While enjoying tho ride
the Doctor was tapped on tho shoulder, and two
mon stepped up and arrested him. He was told
that ho was "spotted'- as one AMOS SPAULDD?O,
and that the men who proposed to tako him in
charge wero detectivo officers. Forthwith ono of
tho men produced a pair of handcuffs, with which
ho proposed to decora to the Doctor's wrists imme?
diately. This was too mach; tho alleged culprit
positively denied his identity with AMOS SPAULD?
ING, and with some degree of vehemence declared
that he would resist to tho last any attempt to put
him in irons. Tho officers wero incredulous as to
his statements; they wero used to that sort of
thing, and could not be humbugged by any pre?
tence of respect ability on the part of thou- prison?
er; bat after some hesitation they consented to
forego the process of ironing on condition that tho
Doctor would have the window down and mako
no attempt to escape. There was nobody on the
train to whom the Doctor could rofcr to satisfy,
thom as to bis real character, and so, with two
police officers guarding him, ho was compelled to
ride into Albany. There ho persuaded tho detec?
tives to accompany him to tho Dehvan LTousc, and
on reaching tho hotel he found no difficulty in con?
vincing them that they had mado an egregious
and mortifying mistake.
THE CABLE NEWS report3 that tho Crook Govern?
ment has announced its determination to declaro
war-against Turkey on tho first September should
tho hostilities against tho Christians in tho Island
of Candia not be endod by that time. If this bo,
indeed, true, wo may suppose it will havo tho ef?
fect of prolonging the war to that day, however
feeblo and near exhaustion tho Cretans may bo.
With tho prospect of such cooperation at so near a
day, tho "J'ASt man" would indeed bo ready to die
in tho "last ditch" before surrondenug. Without
putting perfect relianco in this news, nor indeed
sotting it down as' improbable, wo may remark
that war between Greeco and Turkey is one of the
probabilities; and we look for it sooner or later.
The end of the war between those nations by the
intervention of tho Allied Powers, and tho battlo
of Navarino in October, 1827, left accounts unset- i
tied; and the boundary subsequently established :
left people chiming to bo Grceko under Turkish
bondage; for instance, tho Cretans now straggling
to bo liberated. These matters., like old sores not
to be healed, are bound to break out, and may yet '
involvo Europo in war. By a war thus begun, '
may not the cross and tho crescent again wave 1
over opposing hosts in tho Holy Land? j

JOB WORK.-We bavc now completed our
office BO as to execute, in thc shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and wo
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
friends.
? MR. SEWARD AND MEXICO.
Whether Mr. SEWARD is to be ranked as a
great Secretary of State will be determined
only when history has fairly calculated what
were the difficulties he had to overcome, and
thc means by which lie overcame them. But
it is plain, even at present, that ho lins boon a
very successful one. There is something very
striking, even to a Southerner, in thc steady,
unalterable resolution with ^ which, in all his
long and varied diplomatic correspondence, he
refused to recognise thc possibility of the euc
cess of thc Confederacy. At times bc must
himself bave felt that tbo future was more
doubtful than be could admit, but be never be
trayed his apprehensions, and be eau claim
that through that long period of trial be never
uttered a word which now, in tho hour of
triumph, bis country would wish unsaid. How
far bis diplomacy controlled thc result cannot
now bc determined, but there is in bis career
one episode upon which we think the present
judgment will be thc final one, and that judg?
ment one which secures bis place in history.
The very proper instructions which Mr.
SEWARD addressed in 1801 to Mr. CORWIN, thc
newly appointed Minister to. Mexico, were
scarcely adapted to thc contingencies which
Mexican aifairs developed, and in thc issues
of foreign policy, which events presented, Mr.
SKWARD found himself not slightly embarrass?
ed. For, as ho said himself very truly to
Mr. DAYTON, in 1803 :
?'It is well -understood that, through a
long period, cloting in ISliO, the mnnifest
strength of this nation was a sufficient protec?
tion for itself and for Mexit?o against all foreign
States. That power was broken down and
shattered in 1S01 .by faction. Thc first fruit
of our civil war was a new, and in effect, though
not intentionally so, an unfriendly attitude
assumed by Great Britain, France and S ">ain,
all virtually, and the two first named po rs
avowedly moving in concert. While 1 can >t
confess to a fear on thc part of this Govcn
ment that any one, or all of thc maritime rot,
crs, combining with the insurgents, could over?
throw it, yet it would have been manifestly
presumptuous, at any timo since this distrac?
tion severed tho American people, to have pro.
yoked such an intervention, or to havo spared
any allowable means of preventing it."
Between IS01 and ISO.'l, it had become
obvious that France had taken advantage of
the condition of the United States to adopt a
policy in Mexico that would not have been
otherwise ventured. The success of thc Con?
federacy, and thc establishment of the Im?
perial Government in Mexico, would indeed
have revolutionized thc future of this continent.
Mr. SEWARD felt that there was a natural con?
nection between them. He knew that the
formal recognition of the Confederacy by
France would be an immense gain, if not an
assurance of success, to the Southern cause; and
that rash or injudicious action in Mexico
would secure that recognition. At thc same
time, if, as ho professed to believe, and by
force of his position was bound to assume, the
Confederacy must fail, then two great a con-"
cession to France in Mexico, to prevent ber in?
terference at home, would embarrass his
position in thc future; for tho French policy in
Mexico was in direct defiance of all the tradi?
tional policy of tho United Slates Government,
offensive and violating to thc sentiment of the
people. It is true that fortune favored him,
but it must be admitted that a dangerous and
difficult position Las seldom been better main?
tained with those two great diplomatic
weapons, an even temper and a skillful usc
of words. Ile never threatened what he could
not execute ; he would never anticipate what
had not actually happened; and be never con?
ceded what the future might make it impolitic,
as well as impossible to grant.
On thc 23d October, 1803, in language which
was both dignified and adroit, bc said :
"Happily the French Government bas not
been left uninformed that, in thc opinion of the
United States, the permanent establishment of
a foreign and monarchical government in
Mexico will be found neither easy nor desir?
able. You will inform M. DROWN UK L'HUYS
that this opinion remains unchanged. On thc
other hand, thc United States cannot antici?
pate thc action of thc people of Mexico, nor
have they the least purpose or desire to inter?
fere with their proceedings, or control, or in?
terfere with their free choice, or disturb them
in thc enjoyment of whatever institutions of
government they may, in tho exercise ol' an
absolute irocdom, establish. It is proper, also,
that M. DROUYN DE t'Aura should be inform?
ed that the United States continue to regard
Mexico as tho theatre of a war which hus not
vet ended in the subversion of the government,
long existing there, with which thc United
States remain in the relation of peace and sin?
cere friendship ; and that for this reason the
United States aro not now at liberty to con?
sider the question of recognizing :i Government
which, in the further chances of war, may
come into its place. The United States, con?
sistently with their principles, can do no other?
wise than lenvo the destinies of Mexico in the
keeping of her own people, and recognize their
sovereignty and independence in whatever
form they themselves shall choose that tIiis
sovereignty and independence shall bc mani?
fested."
This was between thc date of what was to
ns the fatal battle of Gettysburg, and thc ap?
pointment of Gen. GRANT as comniandcr-in
;hief of the armies ol' tho United States. Thc
foreign statesmen who were "willing to wound,
fei afraid ' to strike," continued to "let I
larc not, wait upon, 1 would;"' and thc cause
>f thc Confederacy and thc Empire both
ravelled thc road to ruin. As Mr. SEWARD'S
josition grew stronger, his language grew
nore courteously imperative. Bat even then
lis first position had been so judiciously taken
hat he could appeal to events as fulfilling bis
>rophecic3, and use with force and effect tho
anguage of friendly pcrsuasiou instead of
lostile threat. And bc had finally the satis
action of oblaiuing the withdrawal of thc
.'renell troops without, sacrificing ono principle
if his own policy, or making a breach of his
riendly relations with thc government whose
lolicy he opposed.
Thc result has been to placo thc United
Hates in its relations with Mexico, and in its
elations with Europe in reference to Mexico,
a a position infinitely more commanding than
t has ever yet occupied. In thc recent debate
a the French Corps L?gislatif, M. TRIBES
aid :
"Wc went there for the benefit of our com- j
nore?, tiid to enhance tho esteem of France in
hose ivgion<>. W.o went Ibero to orgnnfzn thc
L-itin mee in opposition (o tho ?ng?^Sr.xon.
IV ell. our commerce baa suffered inunensolyl
France has withdrawn; and as to thc Anglo
Saxon race, it is triumphant, and wc aro rc
luccd to form hopes that it will overrun thc
Mexico from which wc wished to expel it; to
ivcnge what we could not ourselves avenge." *
M. JULES FAVBE went even further-"I wil
add that you did not wish to strike Mexico
only, biit that you sought to reach and stab
through tho heart of Mexico, thc heart of
America-well, the result of this expedition
has been, on the contrary, to increase thc great?
ness of America. The climax of your policy
has thrown the great country, which you in?
tended to rescue from anarchy, into thc arms
of thc United States. Yes, in that note pub?
lished in thc Moniteur, to which I alluded the
other day as liable to wound a strong govern?
ment against which you arc now powerless, in
that note you stated that Mexico would be too
fortunato if it coula bc annexed by its power?
ful neighbors."
It is much to be regretted that Mr. SEWARD
had not completed this record by saving thc
life of MAXIMILIAN. It seems to us that it
would indeed have been a perfect and glorious
triumph to have guarded the unfortunate
Prince safely to his home; to have said to thc
Emperor-wc warned you-we prayed you not
to take advantage of our difficulties. Events
have proved how right we were. But in thc
spirit of that humanity which ought to govern
thc relations between Christian nations, wo
have prevented the bitter sacrifice you must
have made, and we restore you the unfortunate
instrument of your misguided policy, saved
by thc power which you would have broken.
But it is not fair-certainly not yet-to hold
Mr. SEWAIII) responsible for this . result. We
do not know what language Mr. SEWARD hold
to JUAREZ on this subject. Wc do not know
why thc minister of thc United States was not
at his post to say authoritatively, this thing
cannot bc done. Wc do know that thc condi?
tion of thc country is enough to paralyze any
Secretary of Stale who has a strong and broad
policy. We know that in order to annoy aud
embarrass thc President, Congress is neither
afraid nor ashamed to dishonor thc country, and
if we have expressed our sense of the great
ability exhibited 117 Mr. SEWARD in tho man?
agement of this Mexican question, it is because
we hope that thc same ability will so direct thc
foreign policy of thc country as to persuade
