republican failures OF 1867. Whatever III,
results, there will be no political revolution In
these half way October elections Of 1870.
The War Situation.

Inside Paris, as we learn by special balloon
advices, everything remains quiet, and the city
looks much as usual. The government dis
tributes food, practising economy very closely,
and water is easily obtained by digging wells.
Cannonading Is kept up continually along the
western side of the city, and successful de-
fence Is confidently anticipated. Horseiesh
has become favoritc article of food again, but
when the Parisians introduced the custom OF
eating 1t few years ago they could scarcely
have oomprehended what luxury 1t would
become Gambetta sailed in the balloon mail
which furnishes us these advices, and after
number Of narrow escapes arrived at Rouen,
on his way to Tours, rather roundabout
route, but evidently the only practicable one
at the time. 1t Is reported that he has been
invested with dictatorial powers. The cleo
ton for the Constituent Assembly has been
deferred until France is free.
The movement on the part Of France for the
expulsion Of the enemy still goes on vigo-
rously. Garibaldi is at Tours and the Ameri-
can volunteers who left New York in the
steamship Lafayette have arrived. The attack
on ST. Quentin was CALAMITY repulsed by the
citizens and Garde Rationale in the town, the
tireurs at Voves are reported to have gained
victory and skirmishes of various degrees Of
magnitude have resulted successfully for
France all over the country The attempt
to relieve Paris by a strong movement against
the rear Of the investing line has been deter
mined upon, and the Parlsians are ready to
second any such movement heartily by an
attack In front. The Prussians comprehend
this at Versailles. They are hurrying the
preparations for the bombardment in conse-
quence, and are massing a heavy force at
Etampes, few miles southwark Of their lines,
in order to engage the new enemy at dis
lance from the works. In the meantime the
new German army from strasbourg is march
ing towards the south, charged with the duty,
If possible, of crushing out the forces there
before they become too formidable

REPORT ON Docks AND PIERs.--We publish
to-day very full report of plan for the con-
struction of piers presented to the Dock Com
missioners by General Viele. The advan-
tageous features in the plan will be observed,
especially In relation to the provision for
perfect sewerage, as well as to the permanency
contemplated by the erection of solid stone
and iron structures in lieu of the present
wooden concerns, which are not only a dis
grace to the city, but which cost more to keep
them in repair from year to year than to build
respectable piers. There are many points III
this elaborate plan which will commend them
selves to the judgment Of those who have
given this subject much consideration. II is
probably the best design yet submitted, and
we have no doubt that the Commissioners will
give 1t all the attention it deserves

BRIGHAM YOU'VE in his declining days gives
evidence of the vanity Of old age. He likes
to have his course approved and he was
certainly gratled the other day when he
offered his resignation as trustee in trust Of
the Mormon Church and the presidency of the
perpetual emigration fund There was not a
dissenting vote in an immense congregation
against resolution approving his management
of these affairs, nor indeed in opposition to
his resignation. Brigham has evidently had q
revelation. and ID putting his house ip. order,

The Apportionment Bin.

The Apportionment Bill.
The Register, in concluding a long
and able article in denunciation of
the action Of eastern members of
Congress- who voted against, and
defeated the apportionment bill, has
the following to say:
1t now remains for the West to
decide whether it shall submit to
what the East has imposed, or elect
the additional representatives to
which it may be entitled, and send
them to Congress, with their claims
for admittance intrenched in the
strength which tho now census is to
give us. Tho latter would be the
botter and the Drawer resort, and not
craven submission. If Congress has
not recognized the additional
strength our growth has conferred
upon us, the census and the Consti-
tuition will. The new congressman
would have credentials that Congress
could not disregard. The authority
tor their election would be in the
Constitution, and the justice of their
claims be found in the official proof
furnished by the census. The way
is clear; and our duty, if We are to
have respect for our dignity and
regard for our rights, is positive nd
plain.

Chicago Democracy.

Nearly one year ago, the Chicago
Tribune, Republican and Journal, so.
called republican papers, united with
the copperhead Times, to defeat the
regular republican city ticket, which
was accomplished, and hybrid con-
Germ installed, in which the democra-
tic element was greatly in the
preponderance.
The republican papers went back
on their progeny long ago, and now
comes the Times with the following
blast, which all goes to show tho
danger to Chicago, as we'll as to all
other cities, of going into the hybrid
business, and the abandonment Of
good republican principles and re-
publican city governments:
"Since Chicago was named city,

We call attention to the call for a
County Republican Convention, to
meet August 9th, in this city, for
tho purpose of nominating county
officers and delegates to the State
and Congressional Conventions.
Also, that the question Of change
in township representation, will
come up. This question was pre-.
scented at the convention, to elect
delegates to the Judicial Convention,
held Both of juno last, and it was
then thought proper to have the
next call for convention state that
this matter would be considered.
The several townships elect dele
gates on the 30th July.
