GEORGE W. JULIAN is said to be a candidate for Senator from Indiana, Gov. WALKER, of Virginia, receives daily teri big bags fall of applications for office. He has the contents carefully filed

away. GEN. SHIELDS visited the United States Senate on Monday last, and had quite a protracted hand-shaking of old friends.

COMMISSIONER DELANO lias decided that the "cancellation of revenue stamps by writing the name and date with a pen is sufficient." y#^WSl»teft paid $7,200,000 in olS for AtaVa] and it coats-more than §500,000 a year to keep up an occupation at one point of it.

TSK Bloonifield, Greene cpunty, Tnbun#says that the "cock is a fit emblem of Democracy. It was chosen once to herald a lie that deceived the Jews. It ifl

ow used to herald Democratic Victorien and deceive the people. Democracy

is deception." IT IS an anomaly *f tlie Patent Office, that appeals can be taken from the decisions of that Bureau to the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. In a recent case, Commissioner Ksher decided in favor of Senator Cole, of California, in a contest with Mr. Loud, the first patentee of a side paddle wheel for steam vessels, The Court has overruled the decision, on

GRANT, who wa* made ar

biter in the case, has decided in favor of Portugal's right to the little island of Bolama, off the Western coast of Africa, at agaipst Gre&t Britain. The, value of the island is about half a million dollars. The 1 ndianapolisJourtwl thinks"the proper way to have done would have been to buy the place and annex it to the United States, dividing the money between the disputants. Wc need a foothold near Africa very badly."

THE

UNEASY

REPUBLICS of South

A uierica are going to assemble, by representatives, in a grand peace meeting next month. The bases for a general treaty of amity are priuate ithas leaked out, however, that they were suggested by exSecretary Seward. And this gives cause for apprehension, for may not that wholesale dealer in real estate have suggested to our quarrelsome South American sisters that the best way out of their troubles is to dispose of their combined territones to tlie United States for several hundreds of billions of dollars? Fortunately, Congress is in no mood for purchasing so much as half an island, much less a Continent.

A obiuous! PHASE of the Bed River rebellfion is made lenown in the late dispatches. It appears that the people are almost wholly unaware of the excitement in Canada, or that any preparation is making to put down Riel. They suppose that their Bill of flights will be granted at once, and that a pacific settlement will be made of the difficulties. They imagine, as report has it, that thetroops which they have heard of as being sent Irom Canada, s&e designed for the protectioh of the Red River people from the Indians The people are represented as being in favor of becoming subjects of the Canadian Government on the basis of their Bill of Rights. Great, therefore, will be their amazement when they learn that their Commissioners have been arrested as accessories to the murder of Scott. If they ave really for revolution, this indiguity will be met with an uprising that will convince the Dominion that they are in earnest, and mean to fight. Riel will probably take the occasion to organize an army.

THE Washington correspondent "of the Philadelphia Press comments on the course of the men who have got possession of Tennessee in order to show how utterly unlit they are for anything like republican government. Complaining of the oppressions of Radical rule—oppressions typified in schools, railroads, churches, immigration, free speech, and a free press—no sooner do they get back into power than they show their,own*utter unfitness for anything like a fair and equal administration. When Governor Senter was in Washington a few day« ago to ask lor protection against the very men he had helped into power, he said he had not removed mauy tf the commissioners of registration in the election that made him Governor. There are eighty-four counties in Tennessee,-with eighty-four of these commissioners, one to each county, and of these (Jovernor SeYiter, as appears from an official statement of the Controller of Ihe St^te, removed eightytwo and appointed men in their stead who took the votes of the disfranchised rebels by the score, and with the following result: In 1S07, when Brownlow was elected, the total vote was 1)0,554 in •1808, at the Presidential election, the total !vote was 81,955 in 186H, when Senter was elected by the aid of the registrars he appointed to take ballots ud libitum, the total vole was 175,359 in December of the same year, when these gentleman had control and wanted a convention, the loyal vote fell to 10,020, against 56,358 for Grant in 1S6S, and 55,020 for Stokes in 1809, and the total vote was reduced to 00,540. This record is an exact parallel with the fraud and terroj: that prevailed in Tennessee when she was sought io be dragged into the rebellion—a system that prevailed in all the other Southern States, excepting South Carolina. It is only natural that these excess^ at the ballotbox should be followed by violence upon the Union.

The Second Controller of the Treasury decides that soldiers discharged for promotion are not entitled to the $100 bounty of the act of 1861, on the ground that when one party releases the other from the obligations of a contract for the benefit of the latter, there is the. end of the argument, for it would be onesided law that would hold one and discharge the other.

HON. S. S. BURDETT, of Missouri, has made one of the ablest Protection speeches of the session. The assertion that Missouri is all for Free Trade is, in the opinion of the Cincinnati Ckronide, as remarkable as the discovery that Mr. Strader is a Protectionist. Governor McClurg, of Missouri, is decided and emphatic in bis advocacy of a Protective Tariff. Missouri is naturally on that side as strongly as Pennsylvania or Ohio, and if the issue is directly made, the Free Traders will soon find out whether they have anything togain by the process.

Mr. Justin McCarthy, in a brilliant article in IAppincali's Magazine, for May, on the results of the surrender of Lee, says:

In France the effect was naturally even more direct and obvious. For with the fall of the Confederacy fell the Mexican Empire,the|enterprise which Louis Napoleon had more than once declared would be the grand event of his reign. Alas, for the hopeful, proud time when Drouyn de L'huys could ask Mr. Dayton, half in jest, half in confident definance, whether he, the American Minister, brought peace or war, and the American Minister had no choice but to take the thing as a mere pleasantry, and to answer with some easy commonplace about the necessity for peace 1 That was the time when French statesmen coolly declared their conviction lhat a French army could, if need were, effect a military promenade across the American Continent, North and South alike. If Louis Napoleon could only have known what was to happen he would probably have recognized the South at any risk at some early period of the war. for nothing could have happened worse for his profile and the power of his Ceesarism than his humiliating march out of Mexico at the quiet, peremptory command of the United States Government, and the utter ruin and tragic fate of his great enterprise. Louis Napoleon never recovered, never can recover, what that enterprise arid its failure cost him His potfer lived on thepre8%eof having made France the arbiter and the queen of the world's destinies and that delusion utterly collapsed when, coldly bidden to withdraw from Mexico, he had to gp without even daring, a remonstrance. Praticially Bonapartism, Ctesarism, is now dead in France. Lous Napoleon has had to do what his uncle, in one of his moods of despair, va'nlv wished he could have done he has had to shelter himself sous les draps d'un rot constitvlionnol.

A more interesting result of Lee's surrender was itsjpractical effect on an abler man than Louis Napoleon. We quote: "Bismarck, the only living statesman on the European continent worthy to be named in comparison with Cavour, has the advantage of learning the lesson.— When the American war began he was a believer in the oligarchic principle of government and legislation when it ended he was a believer in universal suffrage. On the principle of universal suffrage liefounded the North German Confederation, throwing over contemptuously the com plidlated, cumbrous system, which prevailed in Prussia—a system which perhaps may be roughly described as one which applies to the choice of every parliamentary representative something like the political mechanism by whicli the President of the United States is elected Bismarck himself publicly declared his conviction that popular representation, as exemplified in the United States, was the only sure and permanent foundation on which the governing system of a great people could rest, it was a remarkable and significant thing that Bismarck,, who had so long been regarded by Englishmen as a living symbol of the most dogged and uncompromising toryism, should come to receive, as he did, the public and cordial thanks of the English Reform League (then the most radical organization in England, composed of men who regard John Bright as slow and conservative) for his practical and complete recognition of the fundamental principle of free government. I presume we may take Bismarck's own word for it that he had learned his great lesson in the art of government from the teachings of the American war. The echo of Appomattox rolled along the Rhine, the Elbe, the Spree and the Danube.

The Han tliat Wouldn't be Hanged. From Le Nord, of Brussels. The following incident has happened at Flessingue, in Holland:

A wife, exasperated by the continual drunkenness of her husband, threatened him with death. Some days ago she attempted to put this threat into execution. There was but an attic above the sitting room. To this she ascended, made a hole in the floor, and passed a rope through it, one end of which fell into the room Delow, while the other remained fastened in the attic. Siie then descended, made a slip-knot in the rope, and await ed her husband's return. lie at last arrived, and was much surprised to receive no reproaches on his bad conduct. "There is something under hand here, thought he "I must see."

We must premise that this scene took place in complete darkness. The husband, whose suspicions were aroused, let himself fall into a chair and appeared to sleep profoundly. After some snoring, he felt a rope passed around his neck He then understood the little trick that was to be played on him, but did not move. His wife went up to the attic, and taking advantage of this moment' respite, the drunkard relieved himself of his rope and fastened it to the foot of the stove, which soon went up to the ceiling with a frightful noise, caused by the fall of some crockery which was standing upon it.

The wife, thinking the noise was caused by the fruitless struggle of the husband, ran to the police office to declare that she had found her husband hung. The police arrived in hot haste, and a candle was lighted, when all started back at the spectacle which presented itself. The stove was swinging gracefully in space, and the husband sat gravely smoking his pipe. Instead of suicide, an attempt to murder was established against the wife, whqirWas arrested.

He found thitthe error of eleven minutes in the Julian calendar had amounted to ten days. He jthen&ce deducted ten days in OCtobe^ U&fc, wad prevent a recurrence of the error, it was ordered that evCTjryear ending a century -should not be considered a leap year, except the multiples of the year 400. Thus, 1600 was a leap year, but 1700 was not, nor 1800, nor will 1900 be but 2000 will be a leap year, and every- four hundredth year iftbr iU In England and America the Gregorsan calendar was not adopted ^fantillTfef^mseqaentiyf with us, 1700 was not leap year, and we ire eleven days out. These were subtracted, and at the time the measure enacting the alteration caused considerable uneasiness, and some few riots among the poorer people, who could not comprehend the matter, and raised the cry of "Give us back our eleven days I" The Greeks and Russians still retain the old style, so that tjiere is now a'difference of twelve days between their dates and ours, because they have considered 1700 and 1800 as leap years.
