Indeed, we 'have rarely seen " an idea better expressed than the j following extract from a Washin gton spe cial to the Kichmond Dispatch, copied in the Obseevee of yesterday : "The strong central government whichHhe Eepub- icans have been building since 1861 seems a feeble anair.

He has been fruitful of proclamations, but has done, nothing practical. The im preseion made upon the mind fthe reauer. os tue teiegrapnic ana . newspa per reports, is that the administration has been seized with deadly fear. Secretaries Thompson and McCrary protest that all the available forces are at the scenes of the riots; the President appeals to the members of his Cabinet or advice in the premises, and only bears irom bnerman, who suggests that Congress be convened ! All, how- 5i, agree that the riots must be quelled; yet hoiot Upon this point no suggestion is ventured. Mean time care is taken that a formida ble force be massed in- Washington to the end that the city of magnificent distances may not be invaded and pil- aged find ill-fate betide the adminis tration whose financial policy, if policy it can be called, is cursed for the - responsibility of the strike.

We would like to spend a month in this one place, and if we had seen nothing in Naples except the ruins of Pompeii and the Museum, we would consider ourselves, am ply remunerated for the trip here. ; But we have also seen that - cynosure of attraction, the grand and sublime old Mt. Vesuvius, and made the ascent. It is six or seven miles from Naples and can be easilyi seen sending forth its jets of smoke .and -at times : fire- ana lava. Four thousand feet above-the sea level, the country; at -its base is-spotted with towns and villages," which in. spite of the repeated warnings- are still inhabit ed.' -Strange that people will risk so much, but it is oa account of the ex traordinary rlciiiess of the rsoil ; that they continue. fcljve here. , ; j ; Saturday morning at 2 o'clock we started and rode in a cab as far as jwe could, which is two-thirds of the way up ; the balance of the way we walked, although we ; might have ridden , on hosstj-back to what is called the foot of the cone. Mounting the cone is cer tainly a difficult task and requires about one and a half hours, for it is nearly a perpendicular ascent of loose ashes and every step you make you seem to slide back twotthirds of the step. We might have made the ascent alone, but there are men there who. understand going up, so we employed one of them; - He placed in .our hand a rope with a loop : on one end, the other end of which he threw over his shoulder and thus aided us very much by pulling us along. Although we had this .assistance, it preved as hard work as we ever did and we congratu- late ourselves mat tnere was but one Vesuvius to climb and sang "we won't go there any more." -. r JH very thirty or torty ; yards we would .fall down on the ground to take a rest; at last, however, after the exercise oi mucn perseverance, we arrived at the edge of the crater. And then we beheld the grandest sight we ever ?aw . -f or r expect to see . The crater is an irregular gulf of lava, from which issue jets of tire and . smoke. Sometimes it is too hot to Bit on the edge of the crater, but we found it very pleasant then, having; a delightful breeze. Until two or three days ago there has been since the-last eruption which was in 1872, when sixty lives were lost, only one opening in the crater from which fire- issues, but now two little new tdaces have broken out which is thought to indicate an erup tion soon.

The Baltimore Sun refers to a recent decis ion of the Supreme Court of the Unit ed States wining away a confused knot of technicalities by which the coaaty of Johnson, in Kansas, sought to. surround the payment of its bonds. It seems that M the bdbdar an error occurred citing the law " under which the issue was made. It was not denied that the county had, in the Ian guage of the court, "received whai it contra(rtedto re?eiye,. nor that the bonds were issued in strict accordance with the law which existed, but that it was incorrectly citediiThe equity of the claim was fully admitted, but because there was a technical obscurity in the case; the j county authorities Seltusti- fied in resisting payment and in incur ring the expense of. carrying the case to the Supreme Court, meantime keep ing their." creditors out; of their due.

In the eruption of 1779 of Vesuvius, the flame was reckoned to lb two miles high and stones as big as hogsheads nave been tnrown up z.uuu feet above the sea. Of course all these are old facts but worthy of rehearsa here. On the top of the mountain we have a most magnificent view o .Naples and its bay on tne west and the Appinines in the opposite direc tion, besides many pretty islands, and little cities in the plain of the Cam- oaena. Alter spending one nour on the top we make the descent at much faster rate and much easier than the ascent. In all we were about seven hour s. We will not go any more. When we arrived at Naples we ex pected to find it very hot, but were agreeably surprised to find it quite pleasant. Although the sun isvery hot at times, there is always a sea breeze which is very refreshing. We cannot say much more of Naples and its people for ..we axe too lengthy already. But we will say this'much that' it beats any place for beggars that we have ever visited.. : They all know a foreigner and foreigners are the very ones that they tackle. They don't trouble a Neapolitan for they know they will get nothing. And if you give them a fee they will think none the better of you, but worry you for more. There are some wild scenes of wretchedness in the back streets of Naples as well as a grand display of ornaments and dress on the principal ones. .... ,.'., ' Thip evening we go hence to Borne, thence to Florence, Bologna, Venice and Milan, and perhaps join our party aerain somewhere in Switzerland.
