than many may have expected, though
il will be safer to test them in the form of their
actual concession after they lave left the
Senate. The liberty of amendment, the con-
troll of the budget and the right to revise
treaties, are certainly important reforms
mon their face, and fix the status of
ministerial responsibility. In his new
situation the Emperor is disposed to make
friends if he can, and, if the Cable reports
him with due accuracy, exhibits cheerful
bardihood most comforting to those who be-
ieve in imperial comforts. The most peril
nent, the most striking of the EmperOr's late
remarks, is his profound saying; Il must
"choose between Empire and Revolution"
One less adroit than he might run the risk
of choosing too much of both; but, as 1t is,
the Empire is hardly past crisis. The virtus
of laughing and giving at the same tlme MAJ
been tried astutely; but we are not ihlorihe'
that the agitation of France is appeased'

A COLLEGE President in Georgia reeentIy gave

A College President in Georgia recently gave
our correspondent an affecting account of his
situation, and said: "The question now is,
"whithcr shall | fly, for whichever way /
"tuIn, is niggerW 1t appears from his own
statement that this President was opposed to
secession :" d" declared that no folly could be
" grcatcr;" but when the war commenced he
went with his people and did all he could to
secure final victory" taking large amount
of Confederate bonds, and making money out
of them. Now, he can't get his dinner cooked
nor his clothes washed. This seems to us to
be difficulty which his unpleasant frame Of
mind sufficiently explains. We, at least shouldn't
care to cook or wash for him; for as he
takes his opinions from his neighbors, We fear
that if they told him not to pay us our wages
We should have to whistle for them an incon-
yeuieutly long while

There is a highly Judaical old gentleman in
Illinois who expects another food, and has
constructed an ark in which to save himself
and his goods and chattels. We suppose, after
the subsistence of the waters that lac will come
out and plant vineyard, and do what Noah
did, as nearly as possible We take it for
granted that this venerable but rather than
else belated patriarch believes in circumcision,
burnt offerings, unleayened bread, the Pass
over, and the Song of Solomon. together with
the Curse OF Canaan md the Plurality of Wives
and Concubines What mainly interests us is to
know, when the waters prevail exceedingly

Mr.. Senator Wilson said at Rochester the
other day: Z" l am one of those who believe the
country is earning too much money altogeth.
Ger" Perhaps so but Mr.. Wilson must re-
member that the country is really repairing the
waste of the war, is exerting itself to pay off
the National Debt, and is likewise under a
heavy load of direct taxation. This makes all
classes pretty sharp and active and unless a
man is so, he will be pretty sure to find
himself going astern. In some respects we are
as we were at the close of the Revolution,
when Franklin's notions of thrift had a real
moral and meaning. Moreover, money does not
stay money, but takes the shape of substantial
and permanent Improvements. There might be
danger from enormous wealth in few hands,
if we had law of entail; but the constant
breaking up and shifting of estates saves us
from one of the evils of accumulation.

Reports from New-Orleans OF frauds IN the
Government service have become chronic
Frauds in the Custom-HOuse, frauds IN the
Sub Treasury, frauds among the importers,
frauds among the wine dealers, frauds
among the distillers, frauds among the In
ternal Revenue Collectors, frauds in the
cotton tax, have been again and again
announced until the public are quite ready to
believe that the honest collection of any dues
to the Government has been, in the MAN, the
exception rather than the rule in New-Or-
leans. We have to-day the announcement,
quite in keeping with all the rest, that the
frauds in the Income returns have been
found so fragrant as to compel the taking of
an entirely new assessment. These New-Or-
leans reports are bad; but after all, are we
quite sure that the Income returns lately pub

We referred last Friday to case, cited by
Mrs. Wilbour in Woman Suffrage Meeting OF
divorce, in which the husband has now the
custody of one child, and has already taken
measures to secure that of child yet unborn.
Without any special knowledge of the facts,
we take it for granted that the divorce was
not for the cause Of adultery in such case the
husband would hardly be likely to claim the
child. If the divorce was merely menSo ut
could hardly be for desertiOn either, we think
a court of law would interfere to prevent the
infant from being removed from its mother,
upon the general principle that during infancy
the mother is, for self-evident reasons, the
natural custodian of the child, unless she has,
by her vices, rendered herself unfit for the
nurture of the babe. The facts referred to by
Mrs Wilbour should be more particularly in
Guired into and if there should appearin them
evidence of gross cruelty and injustice, no
doubt some Court could be found which would
give relief. Who will give us the particulars

NOMINATING CONTEYnONS.


Our last Republican State Convention dealt
cautiously but firmly with the rotteD-borough
system of representation which has wrought us
such harm and shame Hitherto, the Repub-
licans, few or many, of each Assembly Dis
tIict, were entitled to send just three delegates
10 each Republican State Convention, 50 that
the 1900 Republicans represented in Congress
by Alderman Fox, or the $500 represented by
the Hon. John Morrisscy. might have ms many
delegates in one of our State Conventions ms
the 1898 represented by the Hon. G.. W.
HotchllIss, or the 1861 represented 10y the
Hon. Hamilton Ward. This was every way
wrong. aud resulted in grave practical evils.
Hcuoeforth, each Assembly District may send
one delegate 10 each Republican State Couven-
ton, and no more than one unless it shall have
cast. ut the preceding election of Governor,
over 800 votes for the Republican candidate !;
in which case it may send two delegates, and
one more for every 800 Republican votes east
rs aforesaid. BY this change, the Republican
counties and districts gain and the DemocHtic
lose delegates in future Republican Convcu-
tions, rs is right. The loss aud gain 10y coun-
ties respectively is exhibited in the following
fable.
