of the proprietors of the Times. Mr.. Potter
advocates republic as theoretically the best
government for Great Britain, but admits that
the monarchy, as established under Queen Vic
toria, Is perfectly satisfactory to most intelli-
gent EnglIshmen. He speaks kindly OF the
Queen, for which act Of courtesy he is severely
censured by other members of the Republican
party of England. Mr.. Potter, however, is
not sure that the successors of Queen Victoria
will be fit to reign. He thinks that the mon
archy might survive if the House OF Lords
were made elective, many OF the present
hereditary members being, in his opinion, en-
tirely disqualified as legislators from their evil
courses of lie. The Church, he also argues,
must be disestablished, the ballot adopted, and
electoral districts Of equal population created
for the selection of members Of the House Of
Commons. These are Mr.. Potter's views, but
Great Britain, at the present time, approaches
very nearly the condition of republic. The
Queen rrigns. but does not govern, and the
Prime Minister, whether Liberal or Conserva-
tive. rules, by virtue Of his majority in the
House of Commons, and can pass measures
over hostile vote in the House of Lords,
either by the exercise of executive power or
BY the threat to create Peers. The disestab-
lishment of the Irish Church, and the aboli-
ton of the purchase of commissions in the
British army, by Mr.. Gladstone, are sufficient
proof that in England the real authority and
power are entrusted to the Premier.

cred by Mr.. G. A. Mantz, which was received
with great applause. Mayor Brown, Of St.
Louis, was elected president, and made cap
ital speech In fullest harmony with the ideas
of the convention. After the appointment of
various committees and reading of various

"The Battle OF Berlin"

We noticed, some time ago. the publica-
tion of remarkable brochure, 'The Battle
''oi Dorking," pre6guring the future con-
quest of England by the Germans, with a
circumstantiality Of detail and soberness OF
comment which created sensation in that
country. This has been followed by 'The
BATTLE OF Berlin" the object OF which is to
expose the dangers to Prussia from an agg-
grandizing policy, such as is likely to be en-
couraged by recent successes, or, perhaps,
to ridicule the fears that are felt for this
result.
To show the fate that waits on ambition,
the author feigns that the Germans deter
mine on seizing Heligoland, on hearing OF
which purpose the English minister at Ber-
lin 'hurries home to England. War ensues.
France, under the Due d'Aumale and Gam
beta, is inclined to increase it's crops rather
than retrieve it's lost territory, and pledges
itself to strict neutrality. The war is be-
gun, and very soon there is revolution in
Germany, and arepublic is declared-Jacoby
and Leibhardt coming to the front. The
Emperor fees from Berlin, and Field Mar
shal Won Moltke, Generals Won Room, Won
Falkenstein, Won Steinmetz and Won Wer-
der, as we'll as host OF minor notabilities,
are taken prisoners, and, refusing to swear
allegiance to the republic, are placed under
strict confinement. The Council OF the Re-
publican League for awhile holds all power.
There is q determined civil war between the
forces OF the republic and those which still
follow the fortunes Of the Emperor. force
OF troops-British, Belgian and Dutch
crosses the frontier as the civil war WAKES
warm, and the Republicans celebrate its
arrival. A series of victories Is the result;
Lord Napier, who is in command, being able
to mingle business with pleasure, but liking
to take the business first. The Emperor OF
Russia, from motives OF his own, takes En-
peror Williams side, and sends over horde
OF Cossacks to help hin to regain his throne.
They concentrate on the eastern frontier,
and thus comes about the battle OF KGnigs-
berg, often called the battle OF Berlin, be-
cause OF the tremendous issues that were
there decided. The HohenZollern dynasty,
that had consolidated so vast power, was
there made an end Of, and whilst Republi-
canism reigns in Europe the erewhile Empe-
ror of Germany, Gin little villa near Mel
'bourne, only nominally in the custody OF
sthe Government, meditates upon the Ee-
syerses OF fortune. His aged eyes look
upon New World-the Old World, which
che did so much to disturb, has passed from
"his sight forever"
Things just as startling as those in this ex-
travaganza have followed the French de-
signs upon the Rhine. 1t is to be observed,
however, that the Emperor William, in his
late address at the opening Of the session OF
the Reichsrath, said that the foreign relations
Of the Empire were entirely satisfactory, and
that there was no cause Of anxiety In any
quarter. So that the Battle of Berlin"
may be more remote than the "Battle OF
"DorkiDg."

The Charleston EIection-Sound Doc
trine from a Radical Paper.
From the Columbia Union. ]

The writ of Aandamus in the Charleston
election case was summarily disposed OF Sat-
urday evening. Judge Graham very properly
figured the matter down to two points, the
first of which was the singular fact that the
contestants had failed to produce the protest
secondly, the Supreme Court, in the case Of
Plllsbury and others, had decided that the
City Council of Charleston had no right to pass
judicially upon the validity of an election.
These points stated, there was no case before
the court The matter came to an end as If
the bottom had been knocked out, and the
many prominent men Of the legal fraternity Of
Charleston departed gleefully. We trust that
those dissatisfied Republicans, who were un-
willing to abide by the decision OF the people
at the ballot-box, are now satisfied OF one
thing, and that is, that contesting seats, where
there are no legal grounds, is an uphill busi-
ness. All true Republicans ought to feel graft
fed with the result Of Saturdays work.

Minority Representation.

The people of Pennsylvania decided at the
recent election to call convention for revis-
ing the State Constitution, which, with an
amendment or two-such as that which pro.
vides for the election Of judges by the peo-
ple-adopted without the aid Of a conven-
tion, has stood the test Of :. whole genera
ton. The Journals Of the State are already
suggesting work for the convention in ad-
vance OF the election OF delegates; and IN
particular are urging attention to the ques-
tion OF minority representation, which is
probably as important subject as is likely
to engage the deliberations OF the body.
This is fortunately measure which can be
considered upon it's intrinsic merits, mas
much as it can have no exclusive party bear
ing. While no one party can be benefited
by it more than another, all parties may well
unite in the material reform which it con-
templates of rendering representation more
Just and equal than is possible under the ex-
istiug system. Pennsylvania is entitled to
the credit OF having introduced, and to
limited extent given practical effect to this
reform. 1t was through the perseverlng and
truly patriotic efforts OF ex-senator Bucka'
lew that the experiment was made in the
local elections, at the place Of his residence,
and which has been repeated with so much
satisfaction to the people. With such aid as
Mr.. Buckalew's sound judgment and expert
ence will afford, it is hoped that some plan
will be devised by the Pennsylvania Conven'
ton for successful introduction OF the sys'
, tenn which will commend it to general adop,
| ton.
