Count Won Arntm's second Arrest.
The rearrest of Count Won Arnim, by order
of Prince Bismarck, and his imprisonment in
police station. is an unexpected event in the
famous and extraordinary contest which is
taking place in Berlin. The circumstances
under which Won Arnim was originally
arrested were so harsh that they first called
forth the surprise of the civilized world, which
inferred that he was guilty of a grave offence,
and then excited its indignation, when it was
found that he was accused only of retaining
documents, which, justly or unjustly, he
claimed as his personal property. His second
arrest only shows that Bismarck is resolved
to force Count Won Arnim into the most un-
favorable position, and is not content to
allow him the advantages he might derive from
freedom of consultation on the verge of his
trial. Yet if it was considered safe to permit
Count Won Arnim to remain at large under
bail, his rearrest without the preferment Of
new charges must be looked upon as an arbi-
trary and unjustified abuse Of power; not the
less arbitrary because the Count has been dis
charged from the custody of the police and
kept as prisoner in his own house. The re-
port from London, which we print to-day,
that the documents in dispute have been for
wardcd from England to the Count Won
Arnim, and will be presented by him to the
Emperor William, is very likely to be true.
and if SO indicates that it is not the Emperor
from whom he desired to withhold them, but
Bismarck, whose use of them he probably had
reason to distrust.

And this was Mr.. Curtis de f0ctO govern
rnent AS much de facto government he
gravely tells us, as the established govern
ment OF the State His opinion on this point
is, at least, in marked contrast to that of Mr..
Webster. Mr.. Webster devoted largo por-
ton of his argument to prove that ''the ex-
isting government WAS the only one entitled
TO recognition. We call Mr. Curtis attention
to the powerful passage in which Mr.. Webster
exploded the reasoning Of his "learned ad-
versary'' founded on the pretence that the
Dorr affair was "a rightful government. He
meets the pretenoe that it was 'rightful'' by
showing that it was not de fdcto, and thence
arguing that it had no title to federal support.
(Webster's works, vol. W., PIP. 230-31.) Mr..
Webster did not believe that the char
tex government was rightful In any
broad and equitable sense Mr.. Curtis
himself inserts in his biography, .
confidential letter written by MIR. Webster,
when Secretary Of Stats to an eminent citizen
Of Rhode Island, in the very midst Of that
difficulty, urgently advising an immediate
change Of the constitution of Rhode Island
f0r d1spiacipS sno cnaIser BoVerhuenI, against
which the people were in rebellion. He
regarded the charter government as rightful
only in the sense that IL was established. And
this idea disposes Of Mr. Curtis specious
quotations from Mr.. Webster and Chief
Justice Tsney. II Is true that they inoiden-
tally employed such phrases as "the lawful
government" but in q judicial view tho law
ful government and the dc facto government
are always regarded as identical, and hence a
seeming confusion Of language. Both in re-
spect 10 foreign governments and in respect

Lines by Daniel Webster on the
Death of a Child.

Mr.. Webster. at more than one period
of his life dallied with the muses. In
1925, he had the misfortune to lose a
son, three years of age, named Charles,
represented to have possessed singular
attractiveness of mind and character
even at that early age. On that ocea-
sion, Mr.. Webster enclosed the follow
ing effusion in letter to his wife:l
MY son, thou vast my hearts delight,
Thy morn of life was gay and CHEEKY !;
That morn has rushed to sudden night,
Thy fathers house is sad and dreary.
/ held thee on my knee, my son.
And kiss'd thee laughing, kiss'd thee
weeping.
But all thy little day is done,
Thou'rt with my angel sister sleeping.
The staff, on which my years should lean
Is broken, ere those years come DER
me;
NV funeral rites thou shonldst have seen,
But thou art in thy tomb before me.
Thou rear'st to me no filiaI stone,
No parents grave with tears behold
est?
Thou art my ancestor, my son.
And stand in Heavens account the
oldest.
On earth my lot was soonest cast,
Thy generation after mine,
Thou last thy predecessor past,
Eaglier eternity is thine.
| should have set before thine eyes
The road TO Heaven, and showed it
clear;
But thou untaught spring'st to the skies,
And leav'st thy teacher lingering here.
Sweet Seraph, | would learn of thee,
And hasten to partake thy bliss!
And oh to thy world welcome me,
As first welcomed thee to this.
Dear Angel, thou art safe in Heaven;
No prayer for thee need more be made,
Oh, let thy prayer for those be given
Who oft have blessed thy infant head.
NV Father, | beheld thee born,
And led thy tottering steps with care;
Before me risen to Heavens bright morn,
My son. my father! guide me there.
