Little has of late been heard Of the pros.
meets of the several candidates for the Spanish
throne, but the stormy debate which on Mon.
day occurred in the Cortes seems to indicate
that the prospects of the Duke of MOntpensier
are again improving. The Republican speak.
ers charged the Members of the Provisional
Government with the intention to Struggle tho
Duke into the country for the purpose Of
placing him upon the throne. All the three
members of the Provisional GOvernment-Se,,.
ranO, Prim, and TOpete-took part in the dis.
cussion; and their replies can only have con.
firmed the suspicious of the Republican party.
Prim opposed the demand of the Republicans
that he be deprived of his title of Marshal.
Serrano asserted the sovereign authority of
the Cortes to determine the future form Of
government. TOpete, more explicit than either
of his colleagues, declared that monarchy
with Montpensier on the throne was preferable
to republic. The Progressists are known to
be almost unanimous in favor Of King Ferdi-
nand of Portugal; but the declarations Of the
Provisional Government are evidently intended
to clear the way, or at least to keep it open,
for the Duke of Montpensier.

A Vice President of the United States, who
left his post to enter the Rebellion, has just
returned to his old home in Kentucky where,
as the Associated Press, doubtless by authon-
ty, informs us, he will resume the practice OF
law and carefully eschew politics. Not less for
the general interests of the section with
which he is identified than for
his own sake, we congratulate Mr..
Breckenridge on the wisdom of his decision.
We make no doubt that in State so pecu-
liarly successful in the art of learning nothing
by experience, he could, if he chose, resume at
once his old position of leadership. But in the
present condition of the public temper South
and North nothing would probably afford more
pretexts for the renewal of a bitterness that
we hope soon to see die out.

The new Greek Ministry has deemed it ne
cessary to prepare a proclamation to the Hell
lenic nation in defense of their submission to
the dictates of the Paris Conference. We PRINT
elsewhere the more important portion OF TINS
document, which is specially interesting as an
official review of the attitude of the Great row
ers. They assign two reasons for theirsubmission;
the lack of military preparations for war
with Turkey, and the opposition of all the
European Governments to an armed conflict
The former reflects no credit upon the states
men of Greece, and the latter is anything but
creditable to the diplomacy of the Great
Powers

HOMES FOE THE WORKING CLASSES

HOMES FOR THE WORhING CLASSES.
Sir Sydney Waterlow, n member of the Cor
poration of London, has lately presented us
with practical solutions to two questions which
many persons have hitherto been apt to regard
as problems beyond the reach of ordinary hui
mainly. In the first place. he has demonstrated
that an Aid erman can, if he chooses, be useful,
active, and energetic member of society, and
that it is possible for money to pass through
his hands without more than his proper share
of it sticking to his fingers. Secondly, that
philanthropy may be made beneficial in its in
fucnces and successful in its operations with
out calling charity to its aid
As a Magistrate of the City of London, Sir
Sydney was brought good deal into contact
with the working classes and so impressed did
he become with the fact that the miserable
condition of their dwellings was not only I'M
healthy but demoralizing to them, that he de-
termined to devote his time and energies to
their improvement. With this object in view,
he projected, in 1865, n limited liability COM
pany, to start which he solicited the pccuniary
cooperation of the phlanthropic public, for the
purpose of erecting model lodging-house3
which should provide for their occupants
healthy and comfortable homes at a moderate
rental. The Company did not profess to let
rooms mt low rent, but rooms which should
be superior in comfort, convenience, and salu-
brity to those ordinarily to be met with at the
same price in the same neghborhood. They
did not offer a nottingham a home for
nothing, but they promised him far better
home for his money than he got before. "0ur
object" said Sir Sydney, in speaking of the
results of their efforts some few days ago,
" from first to last has been to improve the
" condition of the working classes, by provid-
"ing for them healthy homes upon terms which
"in no way reflected upon their independence
"of character or prejudiced their sclf-reli-
"ance.n
The carrying ont of this prin ciple gives to
the poor the benefit not of pecuniary aims,
but of the capital, the forethought, and bust
ness capacities of others exercised solely for
their advantage The Company has now 572
of these model lodging hOuses erected in diff
ferent parts of London, all fully inhabited, and
zoe which will shortly be completed and ready
for occupation. Our readers will perhaps be u
little surprised to learn Qor limited liability

selves an evil reputation that its operations
have been so successful as to show clear

The considerations which led us yesterday to
the unwelcOme conclusion that the proposed
plan for relieving Mr.. A. T. Stewart of his
disability, and enabling him to enter upon the
duties ofSecretary of the Treasury, was inadmis-
sible, seem to have enforced the same conviction
in Washington. Mr. Stewart did everything in
his power to accept the place to which the
President had called him-going so far in re-
lieving himself from business embauassments
as to sign legal documents practically conveying
to charitable purposes the sum of from six to ten
millions of dollars but both the President and
himself were finally led to conclude that it
would be better for him to decline the nomi-
nation, which he accordingly did, in a letter
printed elsewhere. Gov. Boutwell, it is still
believed, will be nominated to-day in his
stead
Meantime we have reports of other changes
Mr.. Washburne, it is said, positively refuses to
remain in the State Department, and it is ex-
pected that he will be nominated to-day or to-
morrow for the Mission to France. Even rumor
gives us no hint as to his successor, save
in another repetition of the name of Mr.
James F. Wilson of Iowa. The order assign
ing Gen. Sherman to the command of the army
makes some changes in the routine of business
likely to diminish the power of the War De-
partment. From that Gen. SchOfeld is ex-
pected to retire in day or two, giving place
to Gen. Rawlins,

We trust the Washington story that Judge
Hoar is to be rewarded for retiring from the
Cabinet with an appointment to the first va
cancy on the Supreme Bench is unwarranted,
If, when such vacancy occurs, Gen. Grant
on looking over the field, shall conclude
that Judge Hoar is the fttest jurist for
the place, then he ought to be appointed
otherwise not If rewards" are to be given
to gentlemen who are Unexpectedly deprived
of Cabinet positions, we hold that the Supreme
Bench is not the appropriate quarter in which
to bestOw them, and we take leave to think
that Gen. Grant holds the same view.

in n sweeping and significant Republican VIC
tory. Everybody-even the Democratic organ
lists who predicted acknowledgement that VIC
sbould carry the State but few hoped TO
see the confidence of the people III the
new Administration so auspiciously lndi-
Gated at its very commencement by al
election, after a canvass that was GER
tainly neither spirited nor thorough, showing
large gains over the last. We carried our
State ticket in New Hampshire last year by
vote of 1928. The returns from yesterdays
election are sufficient to warrant us IN reckon
ing the majority now at not less than
$780, Last year we had Sc majority
in the House, and 8 out of tho II
Senators; this year we have 60 majority in the
House, while the Senate probably stands the

Tie Ponnhkespsie EaaIe SAYS:


"As 10 the New Constitution, it contains few proyi-
sOns which are almost certain 10 secure is releclOns
and then submitted in such way that failing 10
understand &c. thousands will vote against II who would
otherwise for It. Taking IL altogether we see little
chance Of success In that direction"
The mode of submission was dictated by the
enemies of the Constitution, and accepted by
its friends as the best they could do. AS to
people failing to understand it, we shall try to
help them understand it, and hope The Eagle
will do likewise. 1t is certainly every voters
duty to try to comprehend the questions to be
decided by his ballot and we trust very few
will persist in ignorance and make that ig
nOrance an excuse for voting No.
The Eagle says there are "a few provisions"
in the Constitution that the people do not like:
also that submission in parts tends to secure
its rejection. 1t strikes us that opportunity to
vote against Objectionable provisions while
voting for the residue ought to nave a con-
trary effect.
