The Question or tho Plebiscite Re
vlyod in France.


vived I'm France.
The recent debates in the French Assembly
have brought about sort Of crisis in France.
AS usual, President Theirs has frightened
friends and foes alike by threatening to resign.
The opposition is less noisy; but the opposi-
ton is not put down. On the Army bill the
Assembly yielded out of respect to the Presi-
dent On the question of free trade and pro-
lection the President, it is not at all unlikely,
may win. 1t is impossible however, that the
threat of resignation on the part of the Presi-
dent can always and forever put off the evil
hour. On this last occasion feeling has run
high, and the call for a Triumvirate has been
loudly made. Into this Triumvirate MacMahon
was invited to enter MacMahon has not re-
fused to be one of the triumvirs; but he has
emphatically declared that such course he
cannot and will not take unless it is sane
toned by plfbiscite. 1t will not be wonderful
if the plebiscite is revived through this sug-
gestion of the General. 1t is not at all won
derful that he makes the suggestion. 1t would
not be wonderful if the plfbiscite brought back
the Bonapartes and restored the empire. It
almost seems as if we were promised a new
departure in the history of this latest French
revolution. Whatever be the final result q
change is now imminent.

The Murder OF Fisk.

Thirteen days ofthe trial of Edward s. Stokes
have passed and the defence is merely at its
opening stage But the interest which at first
fed reluctantly upon the retelling of the story
Of the shooting, as evolved at the Coroner
inquest last January, is now challenged
by the novelties of the defence. Its first point
seems to lie, if possible, in destroying the pros
ecution argument Of premeditation and lying
in wait. To this theory of the prosecution
they oppose the evidence, taken at the
inquest, of dead or vanished hackman
who drove Stokes on the day of the deed
Several persons were also brought forward who
testified to being in Stokes company some few
minutes before the shooting, and that his
(Stokes') anxiety at the time was centred in q
matter relating to bet. A strong endeavor
will evidently be made to prove the
meeting between Fisk and Stokes on the hotel
stairs an accidental one. The testimony of the
boy Brennan that Hart, the hall boy, ad-
mitted at the House of Detention being
bribed, and that he did not see Stokes
fire the shots, is, if the jury accept the
young jail-bird's story q damaging one TO the
prosecution. An exciting scene occurred
between the opposing counsel yesterday, and
every indication seems present that the in

The Dolly Warden Source OF the Mis-
sissippi.

.f.f s-s-.
In another column of the HERALD will be
found an interesting letter from the HERALD
correspondent at the head waters of the Missis-
sippi, correcting the geography of Schoolcraft
in his account of the source of the great North
American river. The HERALD correspondent
dates his letter from the canoe Dolly Warden,
and has fallen so in love with the locksmiths s
daughter that the head waters, which he finds
lie beyond Schoolcraft's fancifully chris
tened Lake Itasca, in another lake of smaller
dimensions, he has called Dolly Warden,
too. While the HERALD has its
expeditions in Africa looking for the source of
the Nile, it would be unfair to our own great
land If the fountainhead of the magnificent
Mississippi were left in doubt. Apart from
this interesting geographical correction, the
sketch Of canoe life among the soltudes of
Minnesota will be found lar more suggestive
than any similar story from the home-bred
wildness Of the Adirondacks, The pleasure of
canoeing needs either q peculiarly happy or
more peculiarly morose turn of mind to drink
in its enjoyments by way of parenthesis, it
may be remarked that moroseness with
others does not mean discomfort with
oneself In any case the canoeman must
be self-contained individual, for he has
no roorson his tiny craft to spread himself.
This mode Of healthy enjoyment which

LETTERS FROM LIVINGSTONE TO THE
HERALD.-Among the many notices which
have come to hand on the success of the
HERALD's expedition in search of the great
explorer in Central Africa, we have noticed some
statements that the man who met Livingstone
did not carr back to civilization any scrap of
the long-lost's handwriting to authenticate the
story OF his having been met and succored at
all. Unfortunately there are people in the
world whose insignifcance does not accord
with their aspirations. and who would seek to
have themselves hoisted into notoriety, even on
the end OF pitchfork, rather than be left Sc
curely alone. To insinuate therefore, against
an actuality is favorite mode of presenting
themselves for the prongs To the public it is
our desire to state that not only will our cor
respondent tell in full the tale of his exploit in
our columns, but that letters to the HEnA1n
from the hand of David Livingstone will ac-
company them. This interesting piece of in
formation, we are sure, will quiet the appre-
tensions of the handful Of doubling Thomases,
as II will prove sqlscce of deep interest to the
millions who read the HEaALD's ips~ ~rllgence

The GREAT WELSH QUEsrIoN-WHo Is
STANLEY p-We print to-day on another page
some extracts from the Welsh papers regard
ing Mr.. Stanley the HERALD's indefatigable
African explorer. AS soon as his success was
acknowledged the enterprising Welsh journals
resolved to locate the place of his birth, and
their enterprise was rewarded with the discov-
cry that Stanley is Welshman. Another i'm
portant point in relation to the matter is that
Notwithstanding his great successes Stanley
"Celtic disposition" has not been furnished
by Yankeeism or any other ism. Regarding
his name, unanimous verdict has not yet
been arrived at, one authority claiming his
name as John Thomas and another as John
Rowlands. Thomas is quite as good Welsh
name as Murphy is an Irish one; So in point
OF choice of name the Welsh journals are sim
gularly patriotic. We feel sorry however,
that our distinguished Cambrian contempora-
ries have not settled the question of stanley's
name. Of course, the matter will not end
here, and We may expect other claimants for
the birthplace of the American explorer.

PoRrTRro DrAz, the originator and nominal
head Of the Mexican revolution, has at last
spoken, though only by proxy. His designs
and me yements have hitherto been so conf
pletely shrcuded in mystery that he has come
to be regarded as phantom of whose
existence there was no other evidence
than vague hearsay. If his Private Secretary
may be considered as his mouthpiece, then the
alleged proclamation published some time ago
in his name, purporting to modify the plan of
the Noria, whereby Lerdo de Tcjada had
been excluded from the Presidency,
was not genuine. But to Judge by
the language Of the Secretary, Diaz is
willing to make such concessions as will
insure the cooperation of the Lerdistas, who
are the conservative power in Mexico. Diaz's
Secretary expresses the hope that the Lerdistas
will yet rise in arms against the government of
Juarez In the meantime the war situation
remains unchanged, with success strongly in
clining towards the revolutionists.

The Jews in Roumania.

A short time since the cable informed us Of
the continued hostility of the subjects Of
Prince Charles to the Jews residing in Rou-
mania. The prosecutions of the unfortunate
Israelites were of q character to attract the
attention of the foreign representatives at
Bucharest, who accordingly informed their
respective governments of the condition of
affairs. In letter from the HERALD corre-
spondent at ST. Petersburg, which we publish
on another page, the real position of the Jews
in Roumania is described. England impressed
with the idea of putting a stop to the persecu-
tions OF the Israelites, and acting upon the
information received from its Consul at
Bucharest, proposed some time since Con-
vention Of oil the European Powers. In this
resolve the British Minister was seconded by
the Italian Cabinet. Russia and Germany
were the only nations that promptly responded
to the proposition, and Gortschakoff offered,
lieu of tn, proposed convention, that all the
European Powers first unite in formal inter-
pellation Of the Roumanian government Ger
many also fayors this arrangement in prefer
ence TO the proposed convention, and it is,
therefore, probable that this will be the course
adopted, Naturally enough the Roumanian
authorities are exceedingly indignant at the
ventilation Of their shortcomings. M. Costo-
foro, the Roumanian Minister of Foreign At
fairs, denies the allegations of the foreign
consuls, contends that the Jews have not been
badly treated and that the statements of the
consuls are greatly exaggerated. This is q
mild way Of putting very distinct contradic-
ton. 1t is hardly possible, however that
number of intelligent gentlemen, such as those
composing the diplomatic corps in the capital
of Roumania, could be so far led astray as to
mislead the respective governments on a sub
ject worthy Of the attention of the great
Powers Of Europe. ,~x ~; s4r'
