Rcpublicanism In Europe.

Whatever our hopes mi ght suggest to

| Belle France
In Spain the outlook is no less cheer
less. A Cabine. seems to be only set
up for the amusement of being knocked
down by popular clamor-and what the
best and mos. brilliant man in that coun-
try said Of the Republic-that it was IAN
accident seems to be fully verified by
experience. CASTELAR, said the birth of
the Republic was not due so much to
the prevalence of Democratic faith
among the masses, as of general lack
OF confidence in monarc hal rule.
This seems to be the gist of the trouble
in all Republican movements on the cons
tinent. They are assumed as a mere
make-shltt--a temporary improvement
upon the inefhciency of etfete regal dyn-
astles, and not from any growth of in
teliISence or governing power among the
people.
The masses Of Central Europe and the
East, at the present time, are just as
much slaves Of the fraud of the divine
right Of Kings as they ever were, but
debauchery has worked decentralization
IN their ancient dynastics, and they fly
to Republicanism as temporary refuge
from Anarchy.
The people Of this country, however,
| whose government is an outgrowth of
national traits, self-restraint, scllSsacri-
fee and unqualified patriotism, view with
paternal feeling the struggles of the peo-
pie of the old world for Republican free,
dom. Still the question will recur,
whether these governments, springng up
| as accidents, as Cas- tclar says, can be
made permanent or not, lacking as the
people who support them do, something
of the undefnabIe quality of an American
Republican - heroism, patriotism and
common sense. Until these qualities
can be made transferable we shall des-

anything to suit our Independent Jour

Here is one of them that Is vastly exer-
cised about the way the Navy Depart
ment has managed the Polaris business
In the first place, Congress appropriated
only $4,000 for Halls Arctic expedi-

guesses that il must have cost three
times that amount; whcreat it greatly

vivors got to 81. Johns, the Government
sent Il vessel to bring them to Washing

which was strange To be sure, if the
Navy Department had brought them by
land instead Of bringing them by sea,
that would also have been strange to
this independent Journal; either way
would have been strange, and opposed

instead of landing the Survivors at New
York, the Government took them to
Washington; which was an outrage
whereas, it they had been set Ashore at
New York, then this independent jour-
IA! would have perceived plainly enough
that the Government Is rocking with
corruption, and that eur boosted liberties
are n mochery and de'usion. And
when the survivors got 70 NashinEton,
instead of allowing them to % home,
the Secretary prudently detained them
en- board the vessel until he could hear
Captain lyson's report of the expedi-
ton, and learn the truth or falsitv of
the sensational stories that were started
about their separation from the Polaris
and about the manner of Captain Hall 5
