THE GOVERNMENT OF LoNpoN.-The
largest city in Christendom, the richest and
most influential in the world, hos tried VA
rous forms of government and found all
wanting. 1t has been governed for time
by the nation represented in Parliament.
It hos been governed for longer time by
number Of municipal organizations, like
an aggregation of villages. 1t has been
governed for some years by singular va
ricty of commissions " or =" boards" each
of them controlling o special department.
Finally, it has been governed of late on a
plan which is a mixture of all these, and
under which each single interest is man
aged by a combination of powers inextrica-
bly, involved together, 20 that no man can
say precisely where lies the blame for any
evil or the praise for any good. Yet with
oil these contrivances, grave statesmen call
it's organization q failure. The Journals
describe its internal condition as 80 chaos"
Wealth accumulates, but taxes grow still
faster. Policemen and courts multiply,
but crime increases. Poor-rates press ter
ribly on property, but poverty presses still
more terribly on the people. And it is now
plain to oil that London must be politically
reconstructed. The most popular plan
which has been presented, and which will
soon be laid before Parliament, is govern
ment by a sovereign House of Commons,
consisting of one hundred aldermen, elected
by all houscholdcrs in the proportion Of two
for every ten thousand electors, the term Of
service to be five years.

o&EA PArEE.-Thc Mobile Daily Regis
Ter OF the 18th is printed upon paper man
utacturcd entirely from the olira plant, at
the Chicasahoguc Mills, about twenty miles
from that city. The paper has good body,
Is strong Tree from notes and other imper-
fections, but is less opaque than similar
quality of paper made from rags. In color
it is not quite up to the mark, but this de-
feet proceeds, no doubt, rather from the
water used in the manufacture than the
material. We suppose the superabundance
of rain at this season has made the water
ut the mills more turbid than usual. The
sample, however, proves that the okra plant
is a good material for printing paper-far
better than the straw and other chaff which
is used in making the paper of some of the
northern dailies, and which is so harsh ind
brittle that the sheet must be handled with
care, or it will be torn up before it can be
read.-Macon Telegraph.

PRICE OF CoAL.-Philadelph papers
argue that if the present mild weather
continues Pennsylvania coal will soon be-
come a drug in the market. They say that
dealers laid in immense supplies in antici-
patton of hard winter, and that these
dealers must expect to soon be embraced in
the crippled list" unless they abandon
their combinations for keeping up prices,
and stop grinding the faces of the poor.
Coal, says the Inquirer, is more than double
the price it was before the war, and this
Notwithstanding the fact that new mines
are constantly opened and worked to de-
gree sufficient to fully supply the increased
demand. There is no just reason why it
should be more than fourth dearer now
than formerly, and it would not be il q COM
bnation did not exist among dealers to buy
cheap and sell dear.
