It is the most decided rebuke to the '"blood and iron'' policy of Prussian militarism that, has come l'orth for some time. It may lie brutal under all the circumstances, especially of Bismarck's bereavement, but it at least is signilicant. Hlmira Ad\ertiser.

I The estimate of the agents employed by the mint bureau to gather statistics of the produc: of gold and silver for the several states and territories make the gold product aggregate ijMo.bW.OOO and iho silver product M,000,000 ounces.

The estimate of the director of the mint is based upon the deposits of domestic bullion at the mints and assay oilices, and upon the returns from private rolineiies. who have reported the amount of both gold and silver and the source from whence the ores from which the same was extracted were received and not from the reports of mine owners.

In regard to the. product of the world's goid and silver for 1S'.)4, the returns are incomplete but so far its deceived show an increase in the produetion of gold over IS!): of about .^01.000,000, the largest increase being in Africa, viz.: $!), 000,000 Australia, !S(,000,000 followed by the United States with an increase of £:-!,.j00.000.

The production of silver in the world, it is estimated, will be from 14.',000,000 to lo0,000,000 ounces for the calendar year l.V.)4. The heaviest falling olf is in tho production in the United States, followed by Australia, -Mexico showing a gam ot .'J,»00,000 ounces. Mexico also gams her production of gold *1,500,000.

TIu» I mini A*kim1 to Art. as in In. 1 tTtiat ion i] .Men 1 or. \YAS I!N* TON. Mav —Tho United States has been again asked to act aaf lnedaiio in an mie,national eomplioo*. tion. This rune the trouble is between France ami Yeiiezuci.i, resulting in complete termination ot diplomatic l'Clations between them. The French" minister al Caracas rccntiy was given-: his passports whereupon France sent two warships to take awav her minister. und all the 1. gat ion arciuves. At the! same tune, France handed to the Vene-: ztielan minister at Paris his passports,! and lie summarily departed. I

The request lor the mediation of the' United Males is now made by the Von-? ezuelan government- through its linnis-^ ter ar Washington, f-ienor Andrade. Hewas instructed by the Venezuelan minister ot foreign a Hairs a short while agog to request tnat the. United States mm-| ister at Pans, Mr. Eustis, be asked to| act as liU'Tinediatory restoring'^ friendly reauioiis between tne two1 couulries. The united states legation^ at (,'aracas was also notified ol the de-| sire ol tne Yeiie/.ueiau government-, and sent a recommendation to the state de-j part nient that the ollice oi intermediary be accepted.

Department officials will not discuss! the subject, and it can not be learned whether lnsir.ieSions have yet been sent to Ambassador husns. .-atonal tho! United Maie» undertake the. recoiicilia-i tion, it will make two questions ill! which, our oincials are lnterinedtarie.S with huropeau governments in behalf of Venezuela. Ambassador Bayiu'd is| already engaged in efieering a solution of tiie Bnrisli- Venezuela question.

The trouble berween France and Venezuela originated about lour months ago. A nuiuLier ol ivaropeans residing at Caracas united in a coniidenrial noto to their respective governments. 111 which they told ol the rax condition of I tiie government,.and the tendency of Venezuelan officials to avert the. settle- S nient of just claims. The note was signed by the ministers ol France, Ger-1 many, Spain and Belgium, fne ital-1 ian nuuistor did not sign it, l»ut sent, it to lus government "for information." By mischance, tlio "confidential" was! omitted, trom the note and Italy publisiied it, wirn lie signatures ot tiie ministers, in the Italian green booK.

Yeneza'la was thus publicly pilloried, Sin"' at once gave their passports to the! Freiicn. hpaiiish and Belgium ministers, but the Oorman minister had left before this indignity could ne offered to him. Bv tnis step Venezuela was almost cur oil irom relations with leading nations, (.rear liritam witluirew her lninisim- some time ago. because of tne boundary trouoi". it- is wit-n a view of! overcoming this isolation that Veuoztiela now asks rlie kuiilly offices of the United Mates toward the resuming of relations wirn the outside world.
