MOUE TBOUB?ES.-It is authoritatively stated (says the Washington Palriot) that l h G Spanish Go vor noient has ver? bally, through its Minister near Um Go? vernment, complained of Gen. Sickles' inference in Spanish polities, thus mak? ing himself objectionable as a Minister. The complaint was made in a friendly way, bat showed that his oontinued pre? sence would not be agreeable at Madrid. Our Government wiP, it is intimated, act1 in this matter as it aoted io the case of { Mr. Burlingame, who was appointed Mioistor to Austria, but that Govern? ment having expressed an indisposition to rooeive him in that capacity, owing to his having, in I860, while a member of the House of Representatives, offered u resolution showing his deep sympathy for Sardinia, he was transferred to the Chinese mission. The friendly intima? tions by Spain to our Government aro not, however, of recent ocourrenoe. Thoy were made about three months ago. Another diplomatio trouble, between the United States and Italy, is an ob? jectionable despatch of Minister Marsh to the State Department reflecting upon that Governmout. There ia no doubt that it has only recently been disoovered, thoagh written in September, 1870, and unintentionally published in the diplo? matio correspondance of that year. There maj have been comment upon it ia diplomatio err?les here, but it has not been bronght to tho attention of the State Department. AitT TitEASuitKS IN C?TUOS -A recent number of a Greek journal cont ni ni some account of the arobaslogioal memo? rials, whose recent discovery in the I island of Cyprus has awakened consider-1 able interest. The discoveries were made by au Ilulian, who lived for somu yeara in this country, became a natural? ized American, and is now neting us United States Consul at Larnaki. Ho bas expended u large sum in making ex? cavations, nud has fouud iu all some 8,000 works of art, of various value, most of them discovered in tho tombs and in tho temple of Venus nt Colgon. The numeration of these inclinion 1,200 ancient Greek, Phonioian and Roman vessels of glass; 4,UU0 Phonieiau, Assy? rian, Egyptian und Greek vases; 1,100 Greek, Roman aud Byzuuliuo lumps; 425 brazeu utensils of all kinds-strigilu, bowls, brooch pins, otc; 90 Phonieiau, Greek and Cypriote inscriptions; 204 stone statues; 790 stone hoads; 320 vo? tivo offering*; 130 gold cylinders, etc. The Vizier, aroused to the importance of ' retaining the treasures of ancient art whioh Greece still possesses, bas issued an order prohibiting tho exportation of articles of tho kind when discovered. The discoveries above enumerated were made, however, before the order wus iBsuod, and the articles brought to light are the .private property of the Consul. They are sufficient to enrich a hundred museums. FRANCS.-Tho Orleans Princes D? Joinville nud D'Aumule have been re? stored to their positions iu the navy and army by the Frenoh Government. Their property has also been givou np to them. The signs in France are much more fa? vorable to priuoes, and foreshadow thu restoration of the monarchy. Noue but enthusiasts dreum that a republic will snit tho Frenoh peoplo. It is a qnestiou whether the monarchies of Europe will permit a republic to exist iu France, to be tho continual source of trouble ami discontent in their owu kingdoms. Tho question now is botween tho two branches of tho Bourbons-the Duke De Chum? ben!, the legitimate successor of Charles the Tenth, or the Count of Paris, tho successor of Louis Phillippe. Tho do? meney extended to tho sons of Louis Phillippe indicate that popular favor is inclined towards thu Orleans branch. The rapid and exteusivo growth of de? basing and obscena literature has at Inst excited general alarm throughout society. lu many Stutos stringent laws aro being enacted, and iu several Northern cities proscriptive societies have been formed, in ordtr to guard tho young and inno? cent against their corrupting iuflnenoes. This is a good movement, and one not made too early. Unless a stop is soon put to the dslugo of obscene literature, which has swollen to such huge and alarming proportions since the war, its effects will be permanently stomped upou our national character, and will in time seriously undermiuo our standards of morality and virtue. The danger is a publia one, and calls for a general uuiou throughout the laud in resisting it. The torpodo, as au agent ia naval war faro, now seems to bo absorbing tho at? tention of the groat powers of Europe Russia, Gormauy and Eugland aro mak? ing experiments upon the most extensive scale, aud in tho lutter oouutry the tor? podo has boen brought nearest portee tion. At Chatham dockyard, a man-of war, the Volta, has beau titted up as a floating nrseDid of these infernal ma? chines, and great accuracy has bceu at? tained iu the telegraphic appliances in? dicating tho presence of a vessel in the vicinity af tho submerged war engines. lu fact, from present indications, it is plain that torpedoes will henceforth bo ! regarded ?a vastly superior to fortifica? tion) iu defending approach to rivers aud h?rbors. -.?. . ?-- -- A forgetful young woman ont Wont thc other night aroused th? inmates of a hotel to which her bridal trip had led, on account of her finding a man in her room.

Tho vast but quiet movements of H sia down through Central Asia havi length, it is reported, caused tho Bril Government to bestir itself for tho \ teotion of its interests iu that seati The stealthy manner in which Btissia extended its possessions has proven much notice outside of those peo] most directly iutorested.

Many circumstances induce such a con? clusion. Napoleon's ambition is not BO ! easily satisfied, and Napoleonio pride ?B not so readily crushed. If the de? throned Emperor has in him any of the1 spirit of the hero of St. Helona, he will hardly remain inactive so long as there is a spark of hope; and when he observes 1 a perfect blase of discontent amoag his I former subjeets, hope almost amounts to aBsnrance. The French Republic is trembling in the balance. Even Mons. Thiers openly aokuowlodges the insta? bility of his Government; and in the eveut of dissolution, who will dare face the scoffing populace and declare him? self President by virtue of a few votes of a fanatical people? The Republic has failed. Kaiser Wilhelm will neither suffer anarchy nor dare to appoint a dic? tator, and there remains but one alter? native-an Emperor. Shall he be a Bour? bon, an Orleanist, or a Napoleon? The exiled Emperor's secret emissaries, his illustrious pedigree, the memory of his uational improvements and the growing discontent of the French people, will de? termine. One of the moat artistio frauds that ever came to my knowledge was de? veloped before the jory. A man had loaned some money, and taken the mort? gage of a tract of land as security on the note. Before loaning it he submit? ted the title to his lawyer, who informed him that it was correct, and consequent? ly the bargain was closed. The noto fell due and went to protest. The lawyer had, in the meautime, moved from the city, and the other parties were not to bo found. Tho land which was mort? gaged lay io New Jersey, and the holder of the noto took the neoeesary steps to foreclose. A professional searcher of titles went to the township mentioned in the papers, and found thut theres was no Buch land iu existenco. Tho grantor named iu the original deed had been dead ten years at tho timo when the document was dated, and the whole business was a conspiracy in which the lawyer had betrayed his client. One of tho conspirators had turned State's evidence and carno before us. His posi? tion waa uot particularly comfortable, and he grew restive under the questions showered upou him. Little by little the truth was drawn from him, and ho prac? tically admitted to having been the ori? ginator of the fraud te.n years ago. The pupers were evidently prepared with care, and had au appearance of genu? ineness euough to deceive any mau who was not suspicious of wroug and had ro? lled upon his lawyer to protect his rights.-Scribner's. i BOBDERIES BY AN EXPRESS MESBENOER -DETECTION, CONFESSION AND RESTITU? TION.-A despatch from Bichmond, Va., under dato of the 3d instant, says: For rome time past, considerable sums of money consigned to vurious parties, through the Southern Express Company, und mostly from Now York, have failed to reuoh their destination. The missing j packages disappeared somewhere be? tween Bichmond, Va., and Wilmiugton, N. C.; but every effort on the purt of the route agent, Mr. Bell, and tho su? perintendent of the company to discover the leakage was fruitless. These defol- [ cations were reported to tho headquar? ters of the Southern Express Company iu New York, and detectives were en? gaged to traoe them. There were four express messengers ou tho ronlo be? tween here and Wilmington, and of these, LeBoy Archer, a young mau of good family und respectable connections, turned out to bo tho criminal. When arrested, ha at first stoutly denied the theft of tho packages, but when the officer showed him the proofs, ho con? fessed the crime, aud with tho detective wout to Petersburg, where his father ro sided. Nearly all the missing funds were found buried under an apple tree in tho paternal orchard. Tho largost of the packages was sent from Now York on the 7th of February, and was stolen on the 8th, and the other, of $100, was1 sent on the 17th and stolen on the 10th of September last. Archer, with tho aid of a heart-broken father, refunded all of the money but $80, and was allowed to go froo by the Express Company.
