By putting up , twenty per cent, be could have stopped the . entire shipment, and he wanted to know, also, whether the conduct of our government in allowing the deportation of arms was consid? ered to be ia good faith toward a friendly . power. The answer came from Bismarck that he did not care where the French bought their arms nor who sold them. As a consequence, some 350,000 rifles were shipped, mostly Rem? ington's, and Mr. Remington sold alco one hundred batteries of artillery. He is still de? livering twelve hundred rifles weekly, the con? tract not having yet expired. Bismarck's policy seems to have been to lake the guns at nothing a-piece from the French. They were cheaper on the Loire than they were In New York. -The fact has already been mentioned that the Pope had written a letter declining the golden throne, and title of "the Great," offer? ed him by a committee of fervent Catholics, headed by the Marquis Cavaletti.

The clergy is the golden seat that sustains tha church. So it is against the clergy that the efforts of the present rulers are directed. They employ spoliation and persecution: they study everywhere how to render ecclesiastical voca? tions very difficult, in order thus to reduce more and more the succession in the eci siostical hierarchy, which, decimated daily death and tribulations, leaves continual vt which cannot be filled, to the great detrim of the Church of Jesus Christ." In dedin the title ol "the Great," Plo Nono says s ply : "My name shall continue to be as it always been. It is true that the title in qi tion-Great-has been given to three tr great pontiffs, but that took place only ai iheir death, because then the judgment men 1B clearer and calmer." Our Commercial Rcvitw. We print to-day a careful and cempli review of the condition and operations the Charleston market for the commerc year 1870-71, which ended yesterday. Ti valuable mass of information will be ino porated in THE NEWS PRICES CURRENT : the present week, issued this morning, a merchants will do well to send in th orders early, as there will, doubtless, be large demand for copies. The German .Ho ve mi nt Towards Afr u MaDy allusions have been made by t Enropean press to the evident need of more extended marine frontier for the n< German Empire, in order that ocean coi merce may be increased and a navy coi mens?rate to the dignity of the State 1 formed. But from an exceedingly able at interesting article which has lately appear* in the Augsburger Allgemeine Zeitung, o? of the most influential of German newsp per?, it seems that public sentiment is beu directed toward the acquisition of extensr colonial possessions, and that, too, in an u expected quarter. The article mentioned is from the pen Gerhard Roblfs, among the most celebran of modern African explorers, and wboi views are entitled to respect not only fro the intelligence and practical experience the author, but because they have been in measure foreshadowed by certain significa] movements heretofore. The project of M Rohlfs may? be summed up in a very fe words. After commenting upon the necei sity of extending the political and comme cial power of Germany by the formation < colonies, he proposes that the governmer shall establish a trade channel from Tr if oli, on the shores of the Mediterranear through the Sahara Desert to the Kingdon of Borna, which occupies the centre of th African continent, and thence to the Rive Niger, or some other favorable point nea the equatorial line. He suggests that pei haps. Spain might be induced to part wit the port of Fernando Po, which is near th month of the Niger, and would mok~ an ex cellent naval station as well as co^mercia depot Reference to the map will show tba a line running doe north from Fernand) Po traverses the most fertile and popalom regions of the African continent, pnssei through the Kingdom of B^rua, and termi oates at Tripoli, which is opposite Trieste. Sluming as this proposition is at firs sight, Its difficulties and improbabilitiet diminish on closer examination. Let at glance briefly at the links in the chain Trieste belongs to Austria, bot its peoph and its interests are as much or more Ger man than Austrian, and it bas been stronglj hinted that one of the next move3 on thc Enropean chess-board will give the city tc Sermany altogether. With Trieste as o Marting pointait is easy to see how Rob If '= plan can be made feasible. The immense table lands of Central Africa, which we know from the reports or recent travellers are re? markable for their productiveness,* salubrity and natural beauly, and for the industry, peaceful disposition and comparative intelli? gence of their inhabitants, are ander the control of two monarchs-the Sultan ol Borna and the Sultan of Soud?t. It will be recollected that about two years Bin?e, the present Emperor of Germany, then King ol Prnssia, formed a treaty with the firet-named of these African princes, and exchanged congratulations and numerous presents with bis sable ally. Among the gifts received at Berlin were textile fabrics and implements A steel and iron, whose workmanship sur M-iaerl those who were a??qs^?med to regard he people of Central Africa as ooly barw> ians, indisposed to work nnd incapable of nvention. This treaty and its accompani? ments settled two things- first, friendly re ations between Germany and the Kingdom >f Borna; and second, the fact that the rade of Borna is eminently wo. lb having, it wonld also appear that the German Gov? ernment has not been uumindful of the ad? vantages accroing from this trade, and is inietly preparing to grasp it at the proper ime and In the proper way. Last year when Prim oflered the throne of Spain to a scion )f the house of Hohenzollern, it was re? ported that one of the clauses of the agree? ment embraced the cession to Prnssia of the Spanish colonies on the coast of Africa; and ihough the rumor was forgotten in the tre? mendous events which followed, there is reason to believe that the idea has not been abandoned. If Germany wants these colo? nies she can obtain them al a cheap rate ; [or Spain bas more than enough to engage ber attention at home without attempting Lo maintain her ancient prestige abroad save, perhaps, in Cuba. Should the road which Robtfs has pointed ont be opened, Borna and the adjacent regions of Central Africa would be brought within a few days' journey of Berlin, and a broad avenue for commerce and colonization thrown open from the capital of united Germany to the very heart of Africa. That German energy, enterprise and thrift would promptly enter and cultivate thia new field, cannot be doubted by those who have studied the character of that people. They are essen? tially a colonizing race, and possess the rare genius which is required to establish and preserve colonial possessions in distant climes. Africa ?B now the only really virgin soil where colonies can be planted ; every other quarter of the glc^e bas been appro? priated-therefore it is r .i, strange that the far-seeing men who are directing the des? tinies cf the new Empire, should wi6h to plant the seeds of German power in the midst of a realm whose extent and riches can scarcely be estimated. Color Blind ! The Sumter Xeics has made another dis? covery with regard to the Charleston Muni? cipal election. This time it announces its belief that. " had no negro at all been " placed upon the Citizens' ticket, the Radi " cale might still have been defeated by a "crushing majority." The white citizens of Charleston are convinced that, ii they had not nominated some intelligent and re? spectable co'ored men upon the Citizens' ticket, that ticket would have been beaten, as it deserved. But it seems that the Sum ter^inrs is incapable of understanding any line of action which gives \o the colored race the civil and political recognition which is rightfully their due. This is evidently a bad case of color blindness ! The Sweets of Oilier. The Radical City Council of New Orleans might give leesons in rascality, it seems, to their political brethren of the South Caro? lina Legislature. A big job is before the Council, in the shape of an extension, and a lease, of the water-works, by which the city will be fleeced out of two million dollars and the water-works already in existence. One member has received $100,000, in Btock, for his vote, and another was offered a sum which would make him independent for life. No wonder that the belief obtains that the scheme will pass! Perhaps the Radical press will now devote to the New Orleans Radical city government a little of the virtuous indignation which Ihey pour so plenteously upon the heads of the New York Democracy. inncral Notices. jSS-ST.
