Trouble in the United States.
ONE of our exchanges has the following: "The people are becoming more and more weary of all restraint. They wish to do just as they please: and if they cannot, they are ready to head a revolutionary party. And when party feeling is as strong as at the present time, with a continued increase from year to year, what can we expect but 'perilous times'? Everything seems to be preparing for a general break-up in chaotic confusion." Says the "Times" New York correspondent: "Nothing but a success on the part of Grant will preserve the peace of the North; and in this city of New York there are elements of disorder and discontent, smouldering under a very thin cover of seeming tranquility, which may at any time burst forth into a devastating conflagration. The next outbreak in this city will not be a riot, but an insurrection; not a mob of thieves and rowdies, but an organized multitude under definite leadership, for a definite object."
