CHARLES P. KNBALL, democratic candidate
for Governor of Maine, has been interviewed by
one of the indefatgables Of the Boston Post.
He avowed himself q lifelong democrat-a
Douglas democrat in 1860 and Mcclellan
democrat in 1864. The conversation pro-
ceeded:-
CoRREsroSpESr-Youa are in favor, then, Of the 80.
called new departuTer
Mr. KINBALL very composedly)-I expressed my
self ust az feel with regard to that In my letter OF
acceptance.
As MIR. Kimball did not express himself at
all on that point in his letter of acceptance, or
II at all, very ambiguously, 1t 10 no wonder he
answered the correspondents query ''very
composedly." Mr.. Kimball wants to come be-
fore the people as q laboring man and . me-
chanic. Then don't let him labor so much In
framing his replies to ordinary questions, OF
sndeavor to avoid the responsibility thereof 80
mechanically.

Levuka, Ovalau, of the FIJI group, exports
nine thousand bales of cotton Of the best sea
island quality-better, it Is said, than that Of
South Oarolina-per year. It has q newspa-
per called the FVis Times, whose columns are
well filled with advertisements, and whose
motto is-"Sworn to no master, Of no sect am
l." Among the advertisements is one headed
"San Francisco and overland to England"
The natives wear for dresses the satln-llks
bark Of tree, which, it is thought, might bs
successfully used in the manufacture of print
ing paper. But isn't this rather "too thin ?"
Levuka Is becoming port Of considerable i'm
portance a. coaling station since the estab-
lishment Of the line Of steamers between
Australia and San Francisco. In tho
number Of the Times before us we notice
. column of maritime news under tho
head Of "Dates Of Departures of
Labor Vessels" That may be considered .
''new name for Il" when we read that a num-
Der Of vessels have sailed on 'Iabor
cruise"-that is, to pick up laborers wherever
they can '.gather them in" from among the
adjacent islands. The laborer 10, of course,
worthy Of his hire, and in the Fijis the Euro
peans rope him in according to the higher
law. The principal civilized occupants of the
island consist Of about fourteen hundred
Englishmen and some forty Americans-ons
of whom, New York boy, has just returned
home after twenty three years absence among
the Fijis. How long will 1t be before some Of
our manifest destiny" men will want 10

AT the present moment France is astir In
consequence Of her municipal elections. These
elections will result In fresh expression Of
the sentiments of the French people, and Of
course must exercise potent influence on the
policy of the government. The supplementary
elections encouraged M. Theirs in his policy
Of delay. II remains to be seen what will
follow from the municipal elections. Some
facts in connection with the recent elections
deserve to be noted. II is most significant
that M. Gambetta has been sent to the
Assembly by four different constituencies-
Paris, Marseilles, Bordeaux and the Depart
ment Of the War; 1t is also significant that NJ
Rouher so recently omnipotent in France
was defeated by crushing majority In the
Charente, where it was supposed he would
have but slight opposition. Of tho one hum
dred and seventeen vacancies ninety.on have
been filed by men who declare themselves
to be moderate republicans and supporters Of
N. Theirs. Only one legitimist and one
nonarchist found place. The Assembly will
soon adjourn until October, and during the
interval we are likely to hear something Of
the plans of the various parties. II is rumored
that Theirs, encouraged by the late elections,
means to retain In Office NM. Favre, Simon
and Picard, and that Gambetta, after he has
organized the left, will be taken into the
Ministry. For the present the tide is more In
favor Of the republic than it has been since
the re-establishment of order. The monarch
lists are not inactive, neither are the imperial
lists; but M. Theirs is unquestionably popular
as the Executive Chief. Things are safe until
October. After that with such men as M.
Rouher and M. Ledru-Rollin in the Assembly
and Gambctta trying to lead the left, we may

monarchy cannot resist the democratic pro-
gress Of the age. Church disestablishment,
an extension of suffrage to all classes, the bal
lot, the abolition of the law Of primogeniture
and the hereditary peerage, with other liberal
measures, must follow in time. No matter who
Is In power, tho result will be the same. Mr..
Gladstone comprehends this and acts ac-
cordingly. Mr.. Dsraeli, as his works show,
understands this also, and were he at the
helm of affairs he would go as far, probably,
as the present Premier, or farther. We have
set an example Of The success OF democratic
government-have shown that the largest
liberty is compatible with conservation and
strength in government and the people of
Great Britain are following US. The Ameri-
can republic, the last born OF great nations, Is
fast leading the world to freedom and higher
civilization,
