The Issue at Paris.

There is general disposition to condemn
 Paris in 1870 on her record of 1793.4
 Editors find the material of their doleful
 sjeFemiads over the condition of France in
 Allison and Scott. rather than in any sure
 evidence of existing facts It3may be that
 another Reign of Terror is threatened, but swe= haya seen no proof of its actual exist A esnce CThat Paris is fighting and even
 beating the Versailles government, under a
 regime of thieves, those may believe who @ can. We would not be understood as ap-
 proving the Commune as against the As-
 ssmbly. On the contrary, we cannot but awbelisye that the revolt is premature. to say -gsfhe least. and that it does not seem to be D rbased on any, principle which entities it to go suecesss Bnt we are not ready to convict as son suspicion of being that stereotyped zomprisingo of vice against virtue, of poverty SsagaiAst property. of ignorance against in ha telligence, which British and American -sspisty is sure to expect from typical Paris. aai sAs far as We can trace the origin of the aa present difficulty it arises from contest
 between the cities and the provinces of -saFrancea Here the American who naturally ga sas7mpathizes with the rural against the ur- sa han population is liable to make great 1Amistake. With us the superiority in in- B telhgence, independence and Iberality, is s on the side of the country. In France the ilhcase is precisely the opposite. The strong bo hold of imperialism, of Catholicism and la of ignorance, in France. is her peasantry. u Itis they who voted solid for the Empire 8s at the late ple5iscite, who have elected a D. Bourbonist Assembly, and who are ready Ila to back the Ultramontane Catholics in a ha re-occupation of Rome. In spite of the 3 4protsstations of Thiers it is pretty evident ? that the overthrow of the Commune implies
 Restoration, and a renewed lease of pow su CT to the Catholic clergy of France. The twice of the Commune seems to be, how cd ever, that it is fighting for local rather sy than for national independence. The regen- IA eration of France will never be accomplish | g ed by sectional, but by national effort, and | we should be sorry to see French Republi- | .w canism wreck itself on the Secession" and | Qualification" fallacies, so thoroughly ex- iaploded here. 9. s1s ea Regarding the position taken by the 3 Commune on one other great question imminent in Europe, the struggle between Capital and Labor, we have no reliable ! data. That all the land of Great Britain d should be owned by few proprietors. and that the bulk of the population should be slaves in all but name, struggling on the verge of pauperism. hopeless of bettering } theircondition, is state of things too like ] that of France in 17s9 to be long tenable. Inrural France landed property is proba- .Gblya more equally distributed than any rswhere else in Europe, and the Labor ques- dttiona arises chiefly in her cities. How great .o'a part it plays in the programme of the Commune seems not to be accurately si knoWn.5d faz ez5t5 t. 5ar@t u.

 man who st1uck another Democratic mem. a glber, resigned to avoid expulsion. This left EoIthe Democrats without the constitutional aa majority requisite to pass bills through eI that body. All that was necessary was for sns the Republican members to remain firm
 to, prevent the passage of all the corrupt rcs and objectionable bills proposed by the .4sT Tweed ring. A caucus was held, and every s9 Republican member pledged himself in
 writing to oppose all such measures. For s9t two days the plan succeeded but, on Sat- el,5 arday, Republican member. named s. Winans, an employee on the uo Erie railroad. went over and joined the

best information he can obtain, and
10 increase the amount Of tax 30

Pruning GoOseberries and Cur.
rants.

II Planters often fail OF success by
asking for and following blind direc-
tions, without properly understand
ing the reasons for their operations.
Gardeners dispute whether it is best
10 train cnrrants and gooseberry
bushes in tho form of trees, or allow
thsm 20 assume the shape OF bnshe,
frOm tho sarfaoe. They fail to point
out in their discussions, the only
essential requisites for the best suc-
cess, namoly, to obtain > yearly suc-
ceesion OF vigorous shoots. Bushes
may be trained both ways, but they
will not boar the fines. and largest
berries, unless the old stunted wood
is cut away and tho young and
thrifty shoots only be allowed to
grow. Every man who has . prun-
ing knife in his hand, should under
stand distinctly what he wants,
before he begins to cut; and he
would do better not to cut 1T all,
| than TO work ID the dark. Most
psrsons have observed that young
ourrsnt and goosoberry bushes bear
larger and finer fruit than whom
thcy beuome old. Tho reason is,
the shoots which hear are stronger,
more vigorous, aud less crowded, in
the young bushes. The object, there
fore, ID to renew tho vigor Of youth
year after year. In cutting out old
wood, let the remaining shoots be as
evenly distributed as may be, and
| allow sufficient space between them
for largo healthy leaves. The foliage
| foeds and manufactures the fruit
| and small crowded foliage will give
| small and poor fruit. This rule ap.
plies to all kinds. grapes, apples, and
the smaller berries. Whatever may
be the practice in the cooler and
damper summers of England. it will
be found here genoraily castor TO
