Furthermore the Times declares em? phatic illy that such a s-jheaie has not the least sanction of legal authority. There can be, lt says, no valid claim till the International oirenoe is es? tablished, and that can only be clone as the result of diplomatic negotiations between the two gov? ernments. -The rooms of the Tweed Poor Association, No. 114 Bast Broad way.

At the closing of the establishment, at ll o'clock, goods had been dis? tributed as follows : 300 tons or coaL ?co bartels or Dour, 1500 pounds of codfish, 1600 pairs of shoes, 50 barrels of beans, 6000 candles, 300 pounds of soap, 2500 pounds of beer, io,ouo pounds or sugar, 2500 loaves or bread, and 4000 pounds of rice. On account of the selling of shoes in the streets no more are given out for the present. Many of the aged recipients of the gifts were hardly able to stagger home with their weU filled baskets. Over a thousand people applied on Sun? day evening and received as istance. Such an array or market baskets was never seen before In this city In such a limited space. The money value of the gifts to each person va ri CH from $3 to ti . -Information has been received at the veteri? nary department of the privy council, England, that the cattle plague ls raging In many parts of Geimany and France, and that, in consequence of the war on the Continent, all efforts to check it in the various provinces of Germany appear to have failed, w iile in France it ls reported to have accompanied the German army' from the vicinity of Metz to Paris. Orlers have been issued by the lords or the connell adding France to the list of suspected countries, and subjecting sheep and goats from Germany and France to the same re* strictions as are imposed upon cattle coming from those countries; and further requiring that all such ca'tlc, sheep and goats coming to Lon den shall be slaughtered at the place of landing, Instead of being brought to tho metropolitan mar ket. The Governments of Belglnm and the Neth? erlands are strictly guarding their frontiers and seaboard against the introduction of animals from Germany and France. -An Important decision of the United States Court in bankruptcy has been announced from Boston In the case br the Bo-ton, "dartford and Erle Hoad. Judge Shepley ruled that railway corporations are clearly embraced in the terms ot "business corporations" in thc bankropt law, and tho concern Involved ls now in bankruptcy, and its stock down to less tuan two cents on thc dol? lar. This salties the Tact that all bankrupt and fraudulently managfd railways are amenab'e to thc Bankrupt Court of the United States. Some learned lawyers have been apprehensive that once lc bankruptcy the roads could never be re? lieved without Anal and Irretrievable ruin to the stockholders. But such, lt ls now said, is not the practicable interpretation of the law any more than in the case of a receiver and foreclosure un? der State proceedings, where the stock and bond? holders having through such receivership rid themselves of bad management, are permitted to come together on agreed terms to relieve the pro? perty or tts difficulties, and to reorganize without prejudice to any of the interests concerned. "The Nice of America." Yesterday justified tho right of thia fair old city lo the name so happily given her by Colonel Lathers in his letter to the Board ofTrada Every trace of winter had disap? peared. The mild and balmy air seemed laden with the perfume ol vernal flowers, stirring the blood in sluggish veins, and giving to the step of business man and pleasure seeker a healthy elasticity. Bustling wharves and quiet streets were lighted up by the mellow sunshine. Even a decline in cotton and a tardy trade could not make the visage dull, or lill the heart with care. Charleston made good her claim to the new name, long ago deserved, of the Nice of America. There is, lu Charleston, just the variety which the ballad-writer produced when he sang that life would be but sultry weather if we had nothing else but spring. We have a cold day or two, and a dull day or two, but c - a winter climate that of Charleston has no equal upon tho Continent of America. Flori? da cannot give to tourist or valetudinarian the joyousness, the genial breezes, the spring in mid-winter, which make up the climate of Charleston. And these are not all our advantages. This city is easily ac? cessible either by railroad or by a fleet of luxurious steamships, which ply between Charleston and New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. The telegraph lines connect us with Europe as well as with every part of the United States. There is a handsome theatre. The hotels, in richness of appoint? ment, dainty variety of fi .re, and judicions general management, have no superiors south of the Quaker City. Around Charles? ton are many historic spots, made famous during the revolution and the war of the Confederacy. Lastly, there is a refined so? ciety and a cordial welcome to every worthy visitor. Without, then, boasting* of the favors which nature has given us, we may fairly claim that Charleston is eminently fit to be the winter-home of the swarming thousands who flee from the rigors of the North, and who desire to keep an eye to, business while their families enjoy the delight of a winter in the South. Russia and England. We find the European journals still cogi? tating and speculating upon the ability of Russia to alter the balance in Europe. To the remark that she is poor and her array disorganized, it is replied that Russia bas borrowed thirty-five millions sterling within the last few years without any difficulty whatever; that a commission is at this mo? ment sitting for the purpose of considering army reform, and that Eussia has laid down six iron-clads within the last six months. She is laying down a net-work of railways, ( which, when completed, will be the greatest system of iron roads in the world. She is perfecting this system, moreover, by means of foreign capital, twenty-two millions ster? ling having been contributed by England, and thirteen millions by the rest of the con? tinent of Europe. When next Russia tries to break down the balance of power, the rest of Europe will have a very different op? ponent to deal with from that which mot France and England in 1855-56. To be a great maritime power is the dream of her ambition. Ice-bound in tho north, the Bos pliorus offers the sole outlet for her egress to the western seas. I In the East, there is no fraternity of civilized nations with whom England can co-operate in imposing constitutional checks upon the advance of Ru33iainto the heart of Asia, or who will join in stopping her. England, therefore, stands in a different position in Asia to that which she occupies in Europe, and a conviction of this dis? turbs the minds of her rulers. Unaided, save by such support as she can derive from the nations of the East, she must meet Rus? sia alone. Here Englaud suddenly remem? bers that 6he is not a great military power will never be, probably. Great Britain will not furnish a regular army of over 200,000 British bayonets. Indeed, it is doubted ir ever she can count upon being able to muster much more than one-fourth of that number of efficient soldiers upon any foreign field of battle. lu the Crimea, the English army jae ver reached 50,000 British soldiers; In India, the same armies on no field of but? tle have ever mustered as many as half that strength. At the outbreak of thc mutiny, the entire strength of the British army for the protection of India-a continent as large as the whole of Europe without Russia was considerably under 50,000. In Asia, England eau look for support solely to east? ern nationalists, or such" a combination of them as her influence in the East enables her to command. New Boolka. NAPOLEON THE LITTLB. By Victor Hugo. Translated by a clergyman of the Protestant Episcopal Church from th i sixteenth French edition. New York: Sheldon & Co. 1870. Napoleon staked his Em pire on the cast of a die-and l03t. The prisoner of Wilhelms? hohe may be buffeted and abused by those who would not venture a word of reproach while Napoleon ruled wuh absolute away forty millions of people. Victor Hugo, how? ever, ls no time-server. What he Bays now of the captive monarch he said of the Prince President, of the Dictator, of the Emperor. And, although it is too early for an impartial verdict to be passed upon the career of him who, fortwo decades, was the central figure in the politics of Europe, it is well to review the steps by which he reached the commanding eminence from which he fell at Sedan, never to risc again. As an exact history of the election of Louis Napo? leon to the Presidency of the Republic, and of the bloody drama of the coup d'?tat, Na? poleon the Little is of no small value. M. Hugo is too indignant to be just. Yet his splendid declamation, biting sarcasm, poeti? cal imagery and great power of descrip? tion give the work a deep interest, and must cause it to retain a high rank in the politi? cal literature of France. Many of M. Hu? go's predictions have been verified with singular accuracy, and the whole book, read in the light of recent events, points a moral which all may understand. The translator has done his work careful? ly, but his acquaintance with French seems to be that which comes of books and not of men. In many instances the translation is too literal to be correct. Wo could hardly re? cognise a Chasseur de Vincennes in a "Vin "cennes Skirmisher," and le grand cordonot the Legion of Honor can hardly be spoken of as "the great cord." Nor is it proper to change the Place de la Revolution into "Revolution Square," or the Rue de Jean Jacques Rousseau, into "Jenn Jacques 'Rousseau Street" There is no such place or street in Paris. Proper names should never be translated-a maxim which seems hard to learn. Some of the translator's notes are very funny in their simplicity. Two examples must Bu?flce. On page 34, M. Hugo says, "Europe laughed from the "other continent* as she looked at Hayti, "when she saw this white Soulouque ap "pear."t The translator gives these notes: ?That ia Europo which had emigrated to America tSoblouqac waa a negro Emperor of Hayti, who hid treated that Island as Louis Napoleon has treated France. Again, on page 85, M. Hugo says: "The coup d'?lat goes to mass * * embraces Catin."* The translator explains the allu? sion titos: Throw a kiss to the girls ! The book is well printed, with clear type upon tinted paper; but the proof-reader was asleep. It is too bad to split M. Odiilon Barrot in half, and make of him (p. 37} Messrs. Odllon, Barrol. And there are other blunders quite as bad.
