and the next. At last by dint Of fresh de-

fereneas Of Isehl and SalEburg is only an
Additional annoyance to the Courts Whose

h, however, in the highest degree improbable

not destitute Of certain amudng quality for
US. Our long standing filtration with Russia,
dating from period ten years ago, when We
wanted to annoy France and England for their
shabby conduct toward us, has made serious
impression upon the average European mind
Fox's embassy, Farragut's visit, the Alaska
purchase, all had their effect in accustomine
the Courts Of the Continent 10 the possibility
of an alliance, offensive and defensive, of the
greet republic with the great autOcracy.
The visit of the Emperor's son viii not tend
to remove this impression, and it is certain
that Prince GortschakoR will do nothing to
undeceive the inquiring souls among the di-
plomatic body at st. Petersburg. They have
begun to admire and dread the power of the
United States even in Europe, but they know
as little as ever-of the spirit of our institu-
tons and our policy. A civil speech of our
Minister to the Sultan win induce them to
think US about to form league with the
Padisha. And kindly welcome given to

clude that we are ready to trample on all our

For constitutional monarchy, Austria has
a summary way of doing things. 1t was not
to be expected that tho Bohemian Diet, which
was largely Czech, should be swift to send
Deputies toEtheIAustrian Reichsrath but, after
repeated refusals of the Diet to elect Depu-
ties, the Emperor finds means to 90 behind
the recalcitrant organization, and, accordingly,
issues decree directing the people of BOhe-
mia to elect Deputies forthwith, the interme-
diate action Of the Diet being cOOlly dispensed
with. AS it is notorious that the population
of Bohemia is two-thirds Czech to One-third
German, it Is evident that the new elections
must be worked" in the German interest if

When the Legislature takes up the subject
of "Gratzes," it ought to be enacted that no
person shall be appointed o Referee or Re-
ceiver who is in any way a relative or cOnnec-
ton, not merely of the Judge making the ap-
pointment, but of any Judge of that Court.
By this means we should strike at the system
of exchanging patronage by which the Justices
of the Supreme Court sometimes try to cover
up their scandalous appointments. We should
not abolish the "Gratzes," for way would be
found to save them by means of dummies and
secret partnerships; but at least we should
put o stop to some of the more fragrant
abuses, Even the proposed law that no
Referees should be named except by consent
