The End OF Brunswick.

The name of Brunswick, which for nearly
one thousand years past has played so con-
spicuous a part inl the history of Europe, is
about to disappear from the list of independ-
ent States, and to be Incorporated with
Prussia, which has already swallowed up
Nassau, Hesse, HOlstein, and other States
whose ancient greatness and importance have
departed. What is now known as the Duchy
OF Brunswick was formerly powerful State.
Under Henry the Lion it entered upon the
terrible struggle which shook the German
Empire to its foundations in the time Fred
erick the Second, and which gave rise to the
long and bloody conflict between the Guelphs
and the Ghibellines. Its Princes have always
borne conspicuous parts in the history OF
Germany. After the separation of Bruins
wick-I uneberg from Brunswick-W olfnebuttel
the former ofwhich, in lib, became an APP
pendage of the British Crown-the latter
was ruled by Dukes noted for their military
talents or their singular eccentricites. One
of them was a favOrite general of Frederick
the Great, and was many years afterward
signally defeated by Napoleon at the battle
of Jena, where he lost his army, and, after
horrible sutferings, his life. His son was the
heroic leader of the German rising against
Napoleon, in 1909, and fell calamity six
years afterward at Quatre-Bras.
The next Duke, Charles, was ignOminious-
ly driven from his Principally in 1880, and
has since led q rowing life, being noted as
collector of costly diamonds. His brother,
the present Duke, is a childless old man, oil
misanthropic habits. He wanted to bequeath
the crown of Brunswick to the son OF eX-
King George of Hanover, and afterward to
the Duke of Saxe-Coburg, whose heir is
Prince Arthur, of England, so that Bruins
wick might remain in the hands of the Guelph
family. The Prussian Government, how
ever, refused to sanction this arrangement,
and another was made by which the Duke
consented to abdicate in the course Of a few
months, when Brunswick will be incorporated
with Prussia.-N. Y. EreaiRg Post.

Downward.

Among the many evidences of the absence
of anything like true convictions in Mr.. Gree
ley and his supporters of the Liberal pcrsua-
sior, there are none more striking than the
changes they have gone through during their
short career, out Of solicitude to please and
humor the Democrats, and probably even
moved by fear, lest they might some day be
thrown overheard as useless ballast by that
august body. Indeed, from the moment the
Democrats took them up as cats'-paws, they
never took the trouble to conceal that they
regarded them as such, and the Liberals ODE
diently and abjectly submitted to all humilia-
tons, went through all possible contortions,
fathered the most disgraceful outrages, until
they have actually come down to the level of
the common Tammany politician.
How proud, how independent and confident
they set out! They assumed to be the re-
personalities of the very best element of the
Republican party, called upon on account of
their superior virtue. to purify it from the
corruption and decentralization into which it
had fallen and to restore it to its former
splendor. Those were the sunny days of
Liberalism, and Carl Schurz in letter de-
clared proudly that fusion with the Demo-
Gratis was to be thought of only on condition
of the complete surrender of their party doc
trines, and the adoption of the Liberal plat
form. 1t is true, this was done ostensibly,
yet only ostensibly, for in fact the Democrats
had not given up the least thing which they
might have brought forward in a strictly
Democratic platform with any show of de-
cency or hope of success. Protests against
the fifteenth amendment and the payment of
the national debt would have been simply
ridiculous; and, besides, Mr.. Greeley, who
had sold out to them long before, took good
care through his wire-pullers in Cincinnati to
open the back-door to them by inserting the
recognition of State rights, on the strength
OF which they may make the fifteenth
amendment dead letter, by means of State
legislation. similar expedient was resorted
to concerning free trade and protection, and
Mr.. Greeley, WHO for good number of years
had fought the State rights "heresy," and
had always been an uncompromising protec-
ZIONIST, actually renowned his favorite doc
rines. Without presumins to interpret his
ideas about conviction and honor, il is safe
TO say that the process must have been pain
ful and humiliating to his vanity. AS the de-
luded leaders were confident Of carrying a
large part of the Republican party with them,
the pretense of Republicanism was kept up
for while longer. Although the President
was soundly and roundly abused and SLAM
dered, the members of the Cabinet and other
leading Republicans were yet handled with
some decency, as honest, well-intcntioned, but
rather unable and deluded men. From the
moment however, it became evident
that Liberalism would not take with
the Republicans, there was no longer a
limit either to Democratic eXactions nor to
Aberal concessions. The virtuous Doolittle

A Compliment to American In
genufiy.

An English contractor, who has accumu-
lated fortune of forty millions of dollars by
industry, enterprise, and skill, has recently
published a pamphlet on "Wo rk and Wages, :"
containing the result of his own practical ex-
perience and observations. Among other
things of interest to all classes of working
men, as well in this country as Great Britain,
he shows that production in the United States
is cheaper than in England, because the
higher cost Of labor leads to higher invent
ivencss.
American ironmasters are able to make
wear and tear which even wrought-iron
wheels made in England can hardly endure
A rainwater pipe in America will often be
scarcely more than the eighth of an inch
thick. In England it would be five times
that thickness. In the hardware trade an
American workman can earn double the
wages of an English workman, but labor
saving appliances have been brought to such
perfection that in twenty five classes of hard
ware goods the United States are able to ex-
port largely into countries in which the pay
Of artisans is scarcely a quarter of the wages
paid in America.
Such testimony as this from one so COM
petent to give it, and yet whose prejudices
and interests are all with our great CONNER
cial and manufacturing rival, as to the merits
Of the protective policy of our Government
and its influence upon both the mental az
physical we'll being of the American laboiei
and artisan, is especially valuable, and de-
serves the careful consideration of those who
are so earnestly laboring to destroy that

THE result of the elections in Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, and Nebraska has
confirmed the opinion the elections in North
Carolina, Vermont, and Maine forced upon
Mr.. Greeley, that he is on the "home
stretch" and perfectly sure to win the Presi-
Dental race. Georgia has given him consid-
cradle courage, but it did not afford such sat-
isfactory proof that he is on the high road to
victory as the October elections and those
previous to them!

of that the Republican majority was more
than doubled by his desertion!

IT is suggested by one who has observed
the wonderful (negative) influence of their
eloquence at the North, that the reason the
rebel-Greeley Democracy of Georgia carried
that State by so large majority is that
neither Greeley, Doolittle, nor Fitzpatrick
spoke there during this canvass.

have a majority, only lsi votes are needed by
Grant and Wilson, and Mr. Biggs comedies them

or from others not mentioned they succeed.
1t is certain that they will not only do this
hnt much more. Pennsylyania's vote, alone,
will be sufficient with three to spare, and New
York would be enough, and nine over. Indiana
and North Carolina would produce the exact re-
suit. 1t is to be considered, too, that California
and Oregon have but recently given sweeping

a closely contested State, but is reasonably GER

cedea would elect Grant and Wilson, with three

Penneylyania, and Indiana, were all carried
against them, an admission which is without
good ground OF reason Even in New York, it
is now claimed, there is good s.ouud for hope
of Republican success,
Presuming, therefore, that Mr.. Bggs has not
been too kind in assigning States to Grant and

easy to see that the chances for Greeley are
very slim indeed, according to the statement
