THE FRENCH MIDDLE.

IN is difficult to imagine anything more con-
fused than the reports sent from various
sources in regard to the condition of French
affairs, the status of the Government, and
the probable solution of the existing Difficult
ties Scarcely one question. of fact is def
nitely settled, and the only thing we'll esta-
blished is that anarchy and misery are hold
ing high carnival. The champions of
Napoleon claim that by right
he still lis the Government, yet the ex-Em-
peror himself, if we are to believe the report
of a recent interviewer, lacks the disposi-
tion as we'll as the power to assert this claim.
The Orleanists allege that the only hope for
France rests in the elevation to supreme
power of one of the descendants of Louis
Philippe. The provisional government is
not only distracted and deied, but it is al
legged that an organized secession movement
has been made in the southern provinces
which is designed to set up an
entirely distinct political organization in
the districts which have suffered least
from the ravages Of war. Meanwhile contra
dictory accounts are given by Bismarck and
Favre of the causes of the failure of the late
effort to establish an armistice. Each party
throws the blame of continuation of hostili-
ties on the other, and while both profess to
be anxious that the French people shall de-
eide their destinies for themselves, Favre
contends that this end is thwarted by Bis
marck, while Bismarck alleges that the Re-
publicans are to blame for the postponement
of the elections. In the midst of all this
confusion, and in spite of the
long line of German triumphs, the
French claim that they have
recently won an important victory, and that
the armies they are now organizing will soon
be powerful enough to drive the invaders
back to lhe Rhine, while the Germans conf,

THE RULES OF TIRE REPUBLICAN,
PARTY OF PHILADELPHIA.

WE publish in another column letter from
Mr.. Ruddiman, in which he says that his
delay in appointing q committee to report a
set of rules for the government of the Re-
publican party in Philadelphia has chad no
motive other than that which has commended
itself to my his best Judgment and most
conscientious wish to discharge faithfully the
duty entrusted to me [himl." What this
motive is he does not condescend to explain.
He promises only that "when it shall have
exhausted its force the committee will be
announced" We are left in state of bliss
full ignorance in regard to the time likely to
be consumed by this process of exhaustion,
and can only hope that at some future period,
which may be a day, q week, month, or
year hence, the labors commenced in Sep
tember will be resumed. We shall be very
glad if it turns out that Mr. Ruddimaus
motive is good one, and if he proves as in
nocent as dove and as wise as a serpent in
this proceeding. The public interest requires
that the Republican party shall devise a sys-
tenn of delegate elections and conven tions
that is likely to secure good nominations,
and thus promote one of the most i'm
portant objects of local government and one
of the greatest obstacles to the attainment of
this end is the tendency prevailing here, as
well as many other sections of the country
to concentrate controlling power in all pre-
liminary partisan movements in the hands of
a small and corrupt but active and influential
clique. Upon Mr.. Ruddimans selection
of members of the proposed COM
mittee of fifteen will depend, in
large measure, whether the interests of one
or more Republican rings in this city or the
general welfare of the party are to possess
paramount importance in the new rules. If
he acts Justly and wisely he may render i'm
mense service to the people, while the ap-
pointment of slaves of ring will go far to
secure the forging of CALLING chains for years
to como. This subject possesses special inn
portance at this moment in consequence of
the notoriety lately given to the robberies
and rascalities of the ring which rules New
York city. The Republican party here
unfortunately includes within its ranks
men who would have little hesitation in
establishing a similar tyranny here. Ever
active and alert, they are not likely to suffer
an opportunity like that offered by revision
of the party rules to pass without an attempt
to advance their personal fortunes by increas-
ing their influence and Importance as partisan
managers. Mr.. Ruddiman asserts that he is
hostile to all ring combinations, and that he
could not become "a party to, much less the
servant of, any class or clique with objects
so unfair and so mischievous." If he stands
squarely on this platform he is exactly the
right man for his present position, and Phila-
delphia, instead of running the risk of having
a Republican Tammany Hall established here,
is in fair way of ridding herself of some of
her present evils But, Mr.. Ruddiman, can
not you let us have your committee at once !?

AMONG the curiosities of the late elections
was the Congressional contest in the Rhode
Island district heretofore represented by Mr..
Jenckes. The Republicans made no regular
nominations, five candidates were put in the
field, and it is alleged that open bribery be-
came the order of the day, the ruling price
being five dollars for each free and indepen-
dent voter Such scenes are rare in this
country, for it is more common to buy up
conventions, legislatures, or influential men
than the masses, and Rhode Island nearly
monopolifies the infamy of putting her citi-
zens up at auction.

IDENTIFY affirm that they will soon capture
Paris. II we search for truth in this maze
of contradictions, we know not where to
look for guide, unless it be in the fact that
heretofore German representations have
prevailed with the repeated triumphs of their
arms, and if the present German view of the
situation is realized by future events, France
is rapidly sinking into fearful abyss.

SINCE Missouri has been lost we scarcely
know what Southern State can be considered
as reliably Republican. No amount of recon-
struction, military interference, or accesslons
of oolored voters can insure the triumph of
Republican State organizations which are per-
petually dividing into desperate factions.
Missouri has been lost by influences similar
to those which practically restored Democratic
ascendancy in Tennessee and Virginia, and
unless better feeling and better judgment are
displayed hereafter, the Democracy will soon
recapture every Commonwealth IN Dixie's
land. The rascality, treachery, and selfish
quarrels of the leading Republicans of the
Southern States are rapidly paving the way
for the restoration of Democratic ascendancy.

The OPPONENTS of the Penn Square site for
the public buildings distinguished themselves
yesterday by introducing, through the
medium of Mr.. w. F. Smith, resolution
authorizing the City Solicitor with such addi-
tional attorneys as he may select to take legal
measures to prevent the erection of the
buildings upon the intersection of Broad and
Market streets. This resolution, after
considerable debate, was postponed
for one week, and by the next
meeting of Councils the anti Penn Squaretes
will doubtless drum up their forces and en-
deavor to have it pushed through, so as to
delay the work as much as possible. This
move proves that the interested parties in
the neighborhood of Washington and Inde-
pendence Squares have not given up hope
of carrying their project of placing the
municipal buildings upon one of these two
sites, in spite of the emphatic verdict
of the people of Philadelphia at
the last election. The Legislature,
by submitting the choice of site for the new
buildings to popular vote, removed all ex-
cuse for further agitation of the subject after
that choice had been made. The law, which
is worded so clearly that any one who wishes
10 uuueISIdnu IL can 40 so, undoubtedly gives
the commission the right to place the baild-
ings at the intersection of Broad and
Market streets if they think that is
the best place for them, and the
''cofin" posters and advertisemeuts
that the opponents of the Penn Square site
put out just before the election, so far from
frightening the maj jority of voters, only served
toconvince them that to throw the four squares
into one, and to place the new buildings in
the centre, would be very proper thing to
do. The agitation that is now being started
upon this subject is disareditable to all par
ties concerned in it, and it will most GER
tainly be useless, and will accomplish nothing
except perhaps to delay a great municipal
enterprise that every citizen ought to be in
terested in seeing pushed forward towards
completion as rapidly as possible.
