NE tra OB' THE BAY. -Go'd at New Tors: closed at lO^alO}. - -The New York cotton market dosed dull and heavy at 14?c; sales 2950 bales. At Liverpool cotton closed quiet; uplands ll da7Jd; sales 10,000 bales. -One hundred ladles of Colmar have pledged themselves io wear mourning - until auch time as Alsace has been restored to France. -The sum of I ooo thalers, in addition to the regular military pension; will be paid out or the French Indemnity money to every Ger? man family whose head was killed- in the war.%1 -There Is" some talk of putting the Great Eastern steamship, on the passenger route ber tween New Yor,k and Liverpool this summer, with the feature of a cheap passage to Europe to attract custom. The fare, lt ls said, will be $25. The Great Eastern has passenger ac? commodations for fully two thousand people, and, with the Immense patronage that it would doubtless draw, together with the freight list,, there is no reason to doubt the success of. the enterprise. The opportunity to visit Europe, even by persons of very limi? ted means, would be the inducement that would make many avail themselves of the chance thus afforded to take a whiff of foreign air. * -At a recent meeting of the New York Chamber of Commerce committee for the re? lief o? the destitute ' people of France, the statement was made that, owing to the great Influx .of food Into France, Waich was taken, there by speculators, as well as by relief com? mittees and by th? government, which had previonsly purchased supplies, there is now a superabundance of food in that country. There ls, nevertheless, said to be much suffer? ing among the poop e, especially where, for want of sufficient means of transportation, re? lief can only be sent in the form of money. The committee adopted a resolution to convert into cash the supplies already sent out by them, as well as; those still in New York, awaiting transportation. -There are in England no less than one hundred and-fifty registered kennels, ol fox hounds, with staff, stud and equipments, as complete as those of any army corps. Many ol them are supported by subscription, others, as the Duke of Beaufort e, are maintained at private expense. So enormous is the cost of ? ?supporting and hunting these packs, that not a few masters of hounds expend from ?2000 to ?2500 per annum over and above their club receipts, all for the honor of the position. The clubs number from one to three hundred members. Each member keeps at least one norse and hack, many of them half-a-dozen. As good hunters cost from ?100 to ?600, some Idea may be had of the extravagant cost of the amusement of hunting the fox lu England. -Monsieur Herr Jean-Jacques Offenbach ha? discovered that misfortunes come not as single epics, but rather in battalions. His French-given names, Jean-Jacques, and his affiliation with the Parisians, have served to drive his'operettas from the stage In Beriin and Munich; a desire to propitiate Prussia has induced Vienna managers to reject them ut? terly; his German family name and his Ger? man birth have caused them to be banished from Prance; and even the Sultan Abdul- Azis, ia a fit of virtuous indignation at this melo? dious '-under dog in the fight" ot opera-bouffe, has prohibited the representation ol his .*K5rande-Duohesse"and "Belle Helene" at Con? stantinople, Pera and Smyrna. Poor Offen? bach ! His only resource tor a living is now, as we have said before, to come to this coun? try and to put the San Domingo commission .business into a nice, rollicking opera bouffe, with the "buggists" ka tbe principal parts and . the President, as a no rt of General Bourn. -The hatred of Germany and everything 'German which has beeu eugendered in France .ey t he recent war, shows Itself in a variety of | 1 ways. The hardest thing which the Parisians eau bring them-elves to hate with sufficient . cordiality is the" beer of Bavaria. Now this is most decidedly a German production, and ? ought noe co have the love of any patriotic 'Frenchman, but to bate Bavarian beer ls a test . bf patriotism too rigid for haman.nature, espc . dally French nature, to bear, so it ls proposed to do away with the difficulty by presenting a still stronger motive or patriotism for drink? ing the beer. The Figaro has proposed a duty ol Ave centimes per glass on all imported Ger? man beer, the proceeds of the tax to be accu? mulated for the expenses of a future war against Germany.: Not nmg could be more inge? ni?os and satisfactory than this plan. It is thereby made a merit as well as a pleasure to drink Bavarian beer, patriotism is nourished bj every glass, and then there Is poetic justice ia using the German beverage for the accumu? lation of funds and fury to avenge the wrongs Of 1870-71. -It is tolerably well established that Gov. : ernor English is elected In Connecticut, which 1 result shows a large Democratic gain from ' last year; aod us evidence that the movement -against Radicalism !s not going backward, we bave the Democratic victories in Missouri and |1 Michigan. Delriot City and Wayne County have gone largely Democratic, and returns from the State, so far as received, show ex? tensive gains on the same side. The cities | 1 have mostly elected Democratic mayors, and the result, as a whole, ls highly encouraging, ? following so t> wilily upou the footsteps of New 1 Hampshire and Cioneciicut. Tne St. Louis < election has au unus.ial national significance. e The Radicals made the Issue on national ques- 1 tioris. Tne leading party organ c aimed that I victory at thu time meant success next year, E and that failure wouid "have the contrary and disastrous effect." On this plat form tney put their best mea, and mei with au utter defeat, * which, according to their own admission, is a < ?defeat of the National Republicau party In the t State. Radicalism has ruled lu st. Louis for t eight years willi unchallenged power, aud this i .result is greatly significant. t . -A Washington telegram ot Monday says , **The House to-day finally passed a bili remov? ing the political d sabililies imposed by the third section of the fourteenth amend meut to the constitution from all persous but ihe fol? lowing classes: Firm, all se?al?is ami mem? bers of the Congre*? of the Luiteu Mate* who resigned to participate in the rebellion; sec? ond, all officers of the at my and navy who re. signed fur the same purpu.-e; ibu u, au mem? bers of .-?tate con ve inion? wno vuu-d for ordi? nance? of Hecvt-siou. It further provides that all persons who desire lo accept tn? oi-uedl ot t he bill shall tlrst lake au oatli mai they will - j j m protect," ?support and deiend the Constitution ot the United States. This oath is to be ad? ministered by the clerk of a United States court and transmitted to the Department of | State, who will Issue a.cerljflcato. of .the fact, to | the person making the oath. It was found, after a canvass of the House, that this was the most liberal bill which could*be got through, while not a few members preferred to support it in the hands of Mr Hale, of Maine, instead of General Butler, who had one also to submit. The latter was, therefore, anticipated. A ma? jority of the New England members votel lor It, Including all the Maine delegation, General Banks, Judge Poland, of Vermont, and Mr. Dawes. Among other Republicans who Sup? ported lt were General Farnsworth, General Garfield, Judge Kelley, of Pennsylvania, and Governor Blair, of Michigan. Three colored members-DeLarge, of South Carolina, Walls, of Florida, and Turner, of Alabama-also voted for it. The bill was sent to the Senate, where an effort will be made to pass lt as soon as the Ku-Klux bili is disposed of. If it be? comes ? law, it is estimated that it will relieve from 150,000 to 175,000 persons In the South. Fighting the Taxes. . Charleston is moving slowly ; but in the middle and upper counties there appears to . be a pretty general determination to find a Short and simple way or bringing the Radi? cal leaders to terms, and of obtaining, for the property-holders, a just representation in the General Assembly of the State. Th? most common suggestion is, that the people should, as one man, refuse to pay any more taxes until the expenses of the government are reduced and the character of the Legis? lature is changed. There is, however, a practical difficulty in this mode of action which is hard to overcome. That difficulty is : How can the sale of the delinquent prop? erty, for laxes, be prevented ; and, if it can? not be prevented, will the people be willing to ruo the risk of allowing their property to pu35 into the hands of native negroes, or Northern speculators, ata price representing oue-fourth of its actual value ? There are two classes of taxpayers-those who zannol pay the taxes of the year, and those who can. The former class, if it were decided on to refuse to pay taxes, would be no woree ofl than they are now. They have not the means of meeting the demands upon them, and their lands, ac? cording to law, will be sold, whether the owners are refusing to pay u3 a part of a general movement, or only because of their impecunious condition. This is clear ; but how about those who can pay ? These may have their property sold, if they refuse to pay. They are able to pay, and it is idle to expect that one who can pay Will allow his property to be sold out for just what it may happen to bring at public outcry. But, in truth, the hazard run by those who can pay is limited in extent. AU lands sold for taxes , may be redeemed within twoyears from.the day of salo. When redeemed within one year, the sum to be paid is the amount for which the land was sold, together with the subsequent taxes paid by the purchaser, and a penally of twenty-five per cent. , When re? deemed in the second year the penalty ia fifty per cent This, then, is . the whole danger incurred by those who, having the power to pay, stand by their fellow-citizens who are straitened in circumstances. We have no idea that the 'delinquent lands would be sold. There would be no bidders, But, if sold, the property could be redeemed within two years upon the payment of a pen alty of twenty-five or fifty per cent. There is another view of the case-one marked by some originality. This is set forth io the following extract from a leader in the Barn well Sentinel : . "Now for the practical working of the plan The county treasurer will open bis books and call upon the taxpayers to pay the tax assess ed. No ou? responds. There is no money in that. Tne next step he will put on the default? ers The penally. No one responds. There is no mouey lu that. The next step, ho will make a levy and offer the laud for sale. No one bids. There is no money in that. This is the whole operation if there be unity among the people. But lt ls urged there may be some people at home who have capital, and there will be capitalists from the North who will bid, aud thus the land will be saorificed. It the worst comes lo the worst, and the land-owner can raise the money to pay tho tax, penalty and costs, he may ruu his land to any amouut hu pleases, because that will be ah he has to pay. But if ?he capitalist at home or from abroad shall run the land to a price that the proprietor is willing lp take, he will have mude a good sale. But there ls no probability In this. The people at home will not be disposed to buy, had they never so much capital, and there will be no buyers from abroad, because if they do not offer to purchase now, wbeu the land ls placed pu the market voluntarily, they will uot be anxious to purchase when it is pul up for sale in unlimited quantities, to exact taxes bom an unwilling people. But suppose the speculator does appear, the laud-owner can outbid him; not being abie to pay his bid, the land will be offered again the next sales-day, At the second sale, of course, the bid of 'Jie owner will not be received, his son will lake his place with the same result, and so on, ad infinitum. Bidders who do not intend to com? ply, can always outbid those who do. The result will be, the treasury will be empty, Lhere will be no mouey to feed the rapacity of Lhose who have been preying on the resources nf the State, and no money to pay the per diem if the Ignorant men who have been i.jpos lng :axes for the last four years. In a word, the wheels o? government will stop. "There ls nothing revolutionary in this. No urmed combination-no violent resistance to .he law-no Ku-K!ux-no intimidation-ain ;all for Presld>-ul Grant's cohorts, or if he does ?end them, nobody to fight. Il is simply the juiec delermiuaiiou or me people tu. make wm moa cause for self-protection, Aud yet lome people who, by the way, were very irgeut.-ecesslbulsts. bm uot very active cam Mi gners. see great danger lu this passive re il.itaoce; th-y lear lt wili bring upon us the iol?iers of the Uulled States anny. Soldiers viii noi be sent to a place where lhere ls no violence to repress, and it they do come, they viii not hurt those who do uot interfere with hem. Ii will be our luierest and policy lo -eat them politely a -d respectfully, and the noney they will .--pend wi h us on pay day will lot incommode our people In the least." These suggestions are worthy of consider ition, as are also Hie suggestions of a Cor? espondent wno writes from Camden. Tins ?eutlemuu, a distinguished citizen of the Stute, proposes an appeal to the courts, and j i explains ihe manner of conducting the pro- 1 Lieeilings. No more peaceful remedy can be found, und ir il full we are all the stronger for carrying ou thc cumout in some otner fashion. We do not propose, at thia moment, to * irge any line of policy, iu regard to debt * iud taxation, upon the peopie of the Slate, i question, fcs? -? ., mm ?. ?

The Saturday Review, the moat scholarly and discerning of the English weeklies, in HO ticing ?memoir of the late GeneralJ. John? ston Pettigrew, of thisStat?, pays the-follow? ing well-deserved tribute to the integrity and motives of the Confederate leaders : "A brief, touching, sensible, and manly me? moir ot General Pettigrew, one of the many brave and distinguished Southerners who fell in the service of the Confederacy, is not only a becoming monument of a good and honorable life prematurely cut short, but a serviceable Il? lustration ot the general character of the Southern military leaders-of the spirit and temper in which the *slave-ownmg oligarchy' really entered Into the war. No one who has read or heard enough of the character of the Confederate Government and staff to know? how largely both were composed of such men as Lee, Jackson and Pettigrew-men of tbe highest moral character; of pure and simple piety, whose course only the bitterest party malice can ascribe to any other motive than a profound sense of duty-can doubt that from first to last the Southern people firmly, de? voutly, and even dispassionately, believed in the Justice of their cause, and, in taking up arms for the State against the Union, conceiv? ed that they were acting in obedience to the law as well as in delence ut' the right. To talk of a 'causeless and wicked rebellion" 13 possi? ble only to those who will not or do not know what manner of men the rebel leaders were; and there must be something wrong about the heart or intellect of the man who, having read this short and simple record of tho life of one wbo was an active participator in the events which led to secession, aud an active soldier in the war which followed lt, can repeat that party shibboleth without a sense of compunc? tion and selt'-distrust." ?Harneo.
