Military Retrenchment.

Those familiar with the doings Of Congress
have doubtless rejoiced to notice that the bill
to reduce the force of the army has at last
been put into a shape acceptable to all par
ties and will unquestionably become law.
The reduction of the strength of the army is
an assurance Of peace and economy. There
is better weapon than the bayonet to main.

system with such as are always developed by

for some time to come but with the power
in the hands Of all the people, further fear Of
extended trouble need not be entertained. -
The force of twenty-five thousand men, pro-

all that is necessary, and all supernumeraries
can be dismissed. The Fifteenth Amendment

ticle on woman suffrage which We find in the
last st. Adams Transcript:
" We are happy in the fact that we are not
obliged 10 argue from the standpoint of slaves
We feel that women stand, not below, but by our
side, If any wise different, upon q higher plat
form than ourselves. We do not ask them to
come down and engage with us in the struggle Of
political warfare, As they have trusted us with
their defence, in the hour of peril, as they have
looked to our strong arms for protection, when
foes assaulted our country-as they look 10 US to
remove the forest, to cultivate the ground TO con.
duct the affairs of commerce, TO build and man
the great ships, and conduct them over the crest
ed waves, 20 span continents with railroads and
forge the great engines for the great work of the
times-so will they leave in our hands the equal
y masculine business Of politics. 80 intimately
connected with all masculine activities
They prefer the calmer atmosphere of home

change our strength and thought for their love
and spiritual beauty-mutually experiencing in
the blending OF our co-relatiye qualities all that
Is sweet and good and great in human life. "

ings. The anxiety of the authorities and the
people is intense None of the conspirators
except workman named Beauri have vet
been apprehended but many bombs and in
oendiary materials have been found by the
police. The Tuieries is strictly guarded.
Orders have been issued to the police to ar
rest all public speakers who insult the Impe.
rial family. The political agitation through
out the empire is at its height, Arrests Of
chiefs Of the Workingmou's International So
eiety continue to be made. 1t is estimated
that eighty members are now in custody.
The details are just full enough to indicate
that if the report affords sufficient excuse for
a surveillance by the police on election day
that shall practically prevent voting by the
opposition it will have served the purpose
for which it was started.

The Greek Massacre.

The facts Ia respect to this wanton BUTCH
cry. now threatening such grave consequences
seem to be- that party of Englishmen were
n, emily travelling in Greece when they were
ca ourcd by robbers, and a ransom demanded
fol their release In accordance with this
dc mand heavy sum was paid but the Eng
fish Government made haste TO demonstrate
vi tn the Greek Government against such out
ra res, wbereupon the latter government made
un wise haste to pursue the robbers before they
ha j released their captiycs. The pursuing
troops drove the bandits to a tower on the
colst. where they were at once surrounded
A. negotiations being refused, an attack was
promptly made As soon as it commenced
the robbers brought out and butchered two oil
the captiyes, and subsequently two more. The
tower was finally carried, but the brigands es
capped leaving two Of their leaders MORALLY
wounded. One captive only was permitted
to escape.
The barbarous conduct of these bandit
viii rank in history among the most crue
de eds on record. The Greek Government il
to be held rigidly responsible by Great Bri
tai for the brutal murder Of its subjects
no twithstanding the outrage was committed
by lawless brigands, against whom the Greek
were powerless. The theory Of this accoun
liability is, that every Government is respon
sible for the safety of all persons under it
protection. and can ensure security If 1t ex
ercises its power with earncstness and de
termination, from the incipiency Of outrage
II, for any cause, robbery and murder ar
allowed to outgrow the power Of the Lawful
authorities, the Government must be held re
sponsible for the consequences. The Govern
mcnt of Greece is weak And what is worse
it must have temporized with the villains VIII
have violated its internal obligations, in thei
earlier movements, and have permitted then
to gain sufficient strength to consummate thei
shocking crimes. Had force been Garlic
employed, energetically and uncompromising
", the honor of the nation would not hay
been so sadly tainted. Hence it is justl
held to its responsibility.

W. We are sorry to note the fact that in
some of the cities of the South the malignant
hot-heads who led that section into the crime
of rebellion and civil war, are still in the as
cendant socially if not politically. Particu-
larry, it is stated, in Charleston, S c., the
cradle of the rebellion, the ultra secession
spirit still prevails A correspondent writes
that while foreigners are received with open
arms by the FIRST families, Northcrners are
snubbed at every opportunity. This feeling
extends to even business matters. The trade
of Charleston has not revived since the war.
The wharves of the city are in the same de
lapidatod state that they were in on the day
the city surrendered to the Union forces The
burned district of II dl has not been rebuilt.
Many of the houses and public buildings still
show marks Of the bombardment. The steam
ers which ply between Charleston and Forts
Sumpter and Moultrie have not been repaired
in the least for many years. The obstruc'
tions placed in the river by the traitors Of the
Palmetto State while wagng war against the
Government are now serious drawback to
the free entry Of loaded vessels
The proper course for Northern people ii
Charleston who may find it for their interest
to live in that city, is to treat the pretentious
and vulgar Southern aristocracy with the con.
tempt and disdain which their political crimes
and social superciliousness merit from sensi-
bic, selfrespecting and patriotic men. North
cru men going South, feeling as if their hap
piness depended on being permitted to asso'
ciate with the cx-rcbcls and sham aristocrat,
of the South, deserve to be snubbed at the
South, and by their old neighbors at the North
when they return. Northern men going South
can find better and more congenial associates
among Northern people living there, if they
take pains to find them out and cultivate their
acquaintance. When the decayed olgarchs
of the " first families find that their high and
mighty pretentions are dcspised by the new
corners, and that their bad manners hurt no.
body but themselves, they will behave differ.
emily. Flunkies and services have no mission
at the South which men of sense are bound
to respect. SelErespecting men, in Southern
cities, as elsewhere, will not long have reason
to complain of the lack Of good society and
pleasant aud useful relations with their fel.
low-men.
