Yet it is this minor evil that the House Committee on Coinage, Weights and Measures undertakes to correct firet. A bill ha? been agreed upon which provides for the exchange of trade dol lars at par, the. redeemed coin to be considered sa bullion. It is worthy of note tha* Chairman Maud, true to the silver interest* which he represent*, declares that the dollars thus received at the Treasury shall not bc considered as bullion against monthly purchases. However this pott may be decided, the elanso allowing exchange at par will bring jay to the he nts of the speculators who bought up these superfluous coins at 75 cents apicco. ??? The British House of Commons yestcrday again refused to let Mr. Hradlangh, the memb?-r-eloet from Northampton, tako the oath. Tho exhibition of fanitici.-m WM conducted in a dignified manner. Mr. Hr/Mllniighadii>ini-i? nd the oath to himsi lt' and then waited for the House lo net. Sir Sfailord Northcote moved that the member from Noitb aiupton lie not permitted to take the oath, nud the motion was adopted by a TOtCCtf 280 to it'.T. bater it was voted to exclude Mr. Dcid laiigh from the precincts of the Honsi'. The prohibitory vote was about the HOM ll Cal a previous occasion, and indicates that the mem? bers of the Hotiso have made no advance toward tnlcinnce. The situation is ludicrous M weii as di-graceiul. Hr. liradlangh, it appeal's, must have a conscience whether he want* it or not, while a majority of the other members have no little conscience that they do not hesi? tate, year after year, to deprive tlu dei tel I of Northampton of representation in Parliament. THE AGREEMENT UPON INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT. Nearly half a century ago a Renate Commit? tee of which Henry Clay WM chairman pre? sented a tcpoftOl the subject of international copyright in which the principle underlying the proposed reform was stated with groat sim? plicity and CorcC. u That authors and invent -ors have, according to the practice among u civilized nations, a property in the respective " production* of their genius, is incontestable ; " and thal this property should be prob Cted as "eftednally as any other property is, by law, u follows as a legitimate consequence. ... It " being established that literary property is nt u titled to legal protection, it results that this u protection ought to Ik- afforded wherever the 44 propel ty is situated." Yet BO late M 1 s7:> an? other Committee of the Senate made tin aston? ishing report that ''any ptojeet '' for an interna? tional copyright e m " Inexpedient," and thal no pitt hail been laid before them the adoption ol which would lot bc " an in.iiiry to the mann " la 'tuiiog interests concerned'in producing u books," and "a hindrance, to the dillii.sion of "knowledge among thc people and to tin i "of universal edneaiion." We have amie gr* af progress in eleven j Theare is not much said now about the i11? *x pedieneyof doing jnotiee tor leer of injuring th.' manufacturing establishments concerned in doing injustice; nor are we often urged to diflnse knowledge and promote education by plundering OUT neighbors. Perhaps W0 have begun lo clear our minds ol' rant. PcrhlpO WO are b.giiiniug to realize that after OHM .'"I niitttnir the right of property in literary pro? duction.?M WC and all other civilb.ed nations tio l.y i >tablUhing domestic copyright?we have no aeoae for refusing to protect it within oar jurisdiction, merely becaoMthe o racr hnppeno to lie ti foreigni'i', any more thal for refusing to protect 1 foreigner's pUTM or the bale of lui"' cliandise which be sends here foi sale. Bot the general favor with which thc intel nat ional copyright project i- nov regarded si-ems to lt. the con-et.iiciice not only of M improved moral Beaaee bal <", chisged conditions of trade, The question has been M complicated and confused heretofore hythe conflict of in tercets between authors and publishers tlnit CoBgreMhM had s ii!" kmo i for not geting. Now, howerer, thc stfite of tilings has Winged; anil even tlie pub? lishers who have done the largest basi:ie>- in keeping up ow mannfos tines, enlarging popular intelligence Ind diilusing educajtfon l>y thc ap? propriation of foreign books, pero ive that in? ternational copyright is i.uile M MCMMTJ fof their interests M for the protection of authors. The fact is that literary piracy tends to cor? rect itself by its own exceooca. Everybody being at lilx-ity to help himself to foreign books, the rival reprinters have been ruining one another. For a while the people profited by tho competition, but that could be only a tem porary advantage; for even a pirate will not dill use education and iriU-lli_-;euee aaBlaaa be can make money by the process. Tho margin of profit lui* grown smaller andmore uncertain, and the number of houses engaged in sharing it has increased, until at present the bustaCM seems to be virtually blocked. Certain kinds of cheap reprints have |become absolutely un? salable, because no sooner has one publisher placed them on the market than a rival has is? sued tho Bame l>ook8 in a little more popular shape, and this competing enterprise, in turu has been destroyed by a third. Hm bookseller is beginning to feel that an international copy? right law ha]needed as much to protect him against cut-throat competition as to protect the author in thc enjoyment of his property. The printer and the paper-maker see that their wel? fare depends npon the-bookseller's; and the . Olding public comprehend that: cheap literature in vcr can Ix- secured by the min of those who are engaged In its manufacture. Bo we havo ie.H h? d;i point where jusi.ee to foreign authors, encouragement to our own authors, protection to our manufacturing interests, the interests ot education and culture, and the. popular demand lor cheap lxioks, all require inti runt ional copy? right ; and willi this concord of sunport Mr. 1>( isle intel's simple and sensible hill ought to ___________________ GENERAL GOBDOh WEBS. General Hot-don is reported tc have arrived ??t. ly at Berber with Lieutenant-Colonel Stew? art.

The garrison contains better ma? terial than General Baker's cowardly fellaheen, but ci.nnot be depended upon to maintain a suc? cessful defence. The population rre probably in secret sympathy with the False Prophet's pretensions. If Oeneral Gonion has cfhscted his escape from mutinous tribes in the desert and on th. river, public apprehension in England can Ix momentarily allayed ; but the perplexities and t< spun.sibililie.s ot the British Ministry will be practically increased.

THE NAVAL-CADET QUESTION, Becretuy chandler pretests against the pro? posed restoration to the Kary ot Um Mdeto who wen- at Annapolis w'nen Ihe law of 1889 OM pissed.

The addition tat300cndets to this list the Bea rotary thinks nnjontssnble, and he homo that the eontenptosUon of tho proposed estab? lishment, '" seventeen hundred naval officers Ittd "not one modern ohipor gun for them to cow ''maud," will arouse public opipion ind prevent nu annual iiicie.i ieof $200,000 to thc Navy ap? propriation u only because two hundivi! young '? nu ii and their relatfr'Mind frienda doubt their "ability, hivingreceived the best education the -conni', mu furnish, to succeed in civil life In "competition with tho ICM favor. 1 n :t American boys." Perhnpo thc concluding sentence .of Kr. Chandlei's letter is not quite fair to the eade; -. The eiiuciition they leroive. however good, is Intended to fit them for ii maritime ind not for a civil life. Every eil.rt ls nude to give them inintkal bent. Their nindi are necessarily turned away from civil and toward naval life. I Such an education does not necessirilj nt them | for civil lit'-. Ti may even be md to unfit then to a considerable extent. And we think it ought to be frankly admitted that the mm of these i inlets is haul, and that they OUght not io be blamed i'm- complaining of it. Hut Mr. Chandler is on impregnable ground points tothe f.>'!.\ of increasing the Navy list when thew is "not intodcrnshiporgnttnfor the o1' ii,mind. Certainly the country cannot be justified In going on ednMting nival j officers indefinitely ind putting then on thc active service list, when there ia no narry Cor them to lervain. Bal thteUobviously a atill more forcible irgnnent for abutting np the Naval Academy altogether. Foriftt Mal. ard and extravagant to educate naval oil pu! then on the pi] -roll, it ii only '.? ami extravagant toedneate thom without put? ting them on the piy-roll. ( learlj If ire ire te hlVC no Navy the sooner Annapolis i i ali;:!, shed the better. Clearly also the fifteen hundred naval officers now under commUsion oughl to i,. retired. To haggle at 300 cadets, and 10 eeptl,SO0 equally useleM officers* ii (octrois sit a gmt anti swallow a camel. Hut one question ls begged ;;i this dh eua ' m. If. is. Are we to have a Navy ? .Mr. Chandler j Mena)to MMttM that ve are not, The Ameri? can people, il tiny eonprehend their own in terepts, will have to tike the opposite ground. The truth is that WC need a N ivy, alida N'avy of magnitude sufficient to employ at least all the officer! now on the lists. As to tue cadet fOM> tion, there dors not spposr to be any preoenl Justification for resining then) to the Navy. There is nothing for then to do; and ?pert from the question of i oonony, to put 300 young men into HUtht.ri_.ed idleness is to ex ? pose them to ruin. It ia far better that they should ge into the world and make their own way. At Um s-ani" tine it ia plainly not wiso to keep up the manufacture of laval cadets at present. The Naval Academ. theft fore ought to have its fires banked, so to sp. ak. ft should be hove-to, to usc a nautical metaphor, until it, can proo-ed a.:ain usefully. It is quit.- .. irrational to keep on educating young men for a profession to which they cannot obtain ad? mittance as to make tnem ostensibly officers of a Navy which possesses no objective existence. iteontin unusual eftorte should bo made to Becnre nt lust Um hagiimingi of un adc _u_ate nirine defensive force. THE GAY HEAD WEEGE, The Board of luspeitors has uxamimd all tho, survivors of the City of Columbus who could possibly throw any light on tlie MUM of the v.itil., and it is now apparent that thc tooti many adduced, impericet ami fragttMntaf] is, uni-' serve foi the foundation ot whltCVCI conclusion is reached.

The proximity of tho (lay Ilead light would havo startled tho stupidest deck-hand long before tho steamer neared tJio Devil's Bridge, and the alarm would havo been given. The only pos.siblo coiuJusiou is that the cap? tain gave the wrong course aud that after he wini below no watch at all was kept on di Mat, The quartormastt't simply kept the course that had been given bim, blindly and unswervingly. The second Mts and the lookout forward, and all the Witch on deck, must have gone to (deep. The look nu will not admit this now, but it is an inevitable conclusion from the outcome. The se,mid mate must have been asleep, be? cause if is evident that when awake he WM too familiar willi the coast to run the vessel head? long to destruction in tbat fashion. There was au entire absence of proper discipline on the .sleait er, and the captain Mt the Mangle in neglert of his duty. The more the case ia ex? amined tlie heavier and the more individual be comes his responsihility. If his officers and emt wen ihirkeri and faithless watchers, it was his fault. A captain who knew and did his duty habitually never could have been so ill ?ervtai. It is impossible to believe that the course was changed at all from that which lie binseiM i.i the man nt tho wheel. ?

This abo was received with favor, and ludeed, at some poiots, with admiration. The re-entrance of Mme. Modj.-.ka, accordingly, may be aet down aa accomplished under IMfMcM conditions. .She will act at tho Star Theatre for the next four v,i? ks. lt is a dark and sad subject that Mr. Barrymoro hMOhOOCI for the lissi- of this play; hut life ia lull nf dark and ead subjects, and th*y, SBSMg tho rest are entitled to a suitable consideration. \\ bo ever would kindle a fire, hecins it with a spark, and whoever would mike a tragedy inrns to tho trimble and tbe misery of life, il not to ifs bright nett, nnd Ifs pleasure. Mr. Barrymore ap pe nra to here thought that ii dramatic teaotSBSM Of t.'iM dark theme would elicit from it sti! dog tsaMtril al situation* and a rigorous audimpre.'/iive displuy of the PCbbMSS. under circumstances of ;t terribly ti ivri-al chara, t.-i.

Such deeds were often done by the barbaric chiefs of Scotian.i; and barbarism is by no means 0at.net1 ll every day's ':>'.rt bom Kassia and tho East, and from Ireland aud tho West, mont abundantly prores. In her freuay, Sndjrnle lint dedicates her child to the mission of veuxeaiica upon the mnrden-r, and then swallows a poison and diea in her delirium and sin. In the rest ot' the piece \eidjczda is the daughter. The uiotivo for her conduct now is love for her lover, whose wife abe is desirous to become. All the condifiona are chaajjed. She is difelliog vrith her gSSrdisn, at Nice, in Italy. That gusrdsM iain vengeful pursut of a man who has Mashed him ot his wife.
