EISM AKsCk,

We trust that Bsmarck's offended Dig |
nifty is appeased, that his rutilcd plumagc is
again smooth and that he is as smiling, |
complacent and confident as ever f; even if
he does not feel himself quite the all
powerful prince as of yore. The Rechstag
has declared its confidence in him, aud
that ought to induce him TO withdraw his
threat of resignation-not that we think
his resignation would be such terrible
evil to Germany and the world, because
we think Germany would survive the event
and the world continue to move. That
Bismarck has accomplished much for Ger
many and the cause of liberal government
is unquestionabc That, during the greater
part of the period that he has been prime
minister, no other man could have achieved
as much as he, we freely admit. That he
is now essential to the furlheranco of liberal
government! in Germany is somewhat
questionable. lie is dcspo,ic in his nature,
aud generally accomplishes that which he
undertakes by compelling others TO bow to
HIS strong will and powerful intellect He
has now. by threat Of resignation, COM
PEELED the Reichstag to grant him vote of
confidence, although it did not take pre-
cisely the form he desired. The vote of
confidence grew out Of the threat, but the
threat came from another cause. The vote
of confidence was on this wise. Friday, a
motion was made, in the Reichstag, TO
strike from the appropriations for the
foreign office the grant for the secret SER
vice, whercupon Herr Benningsen, claim
ing that it was an ultraT ontane attack
upon Germany and its national policy,
asked that ''thc Reichstag pass n vote of
confidence in the chanchelor" by rejecting
the motion, and the motion was rejected by
vote OF seyenty-one to one hundred and
ninety-nlnc So the legislative department
have declared their confidence in Bismarck
so far as lie is connected with Germany
and its national policy as against the Ultra

an expression so far rs 1t relates to the So

his statement That It would mean nc

boy, while others offer suggestions as to

from man in Fairhaven, Conn, who says

ANOTHER IMPORTANT REVELATION.
On Sunday, singular as 1t may seem. the
most important revelation concerning Char
ley Ross has been made by Constable IIol-
land of Fort Hamilton. If the statement
made to him by the dead burglar Mosber
be true, there are yet hopes that the boy is
alive and the unhappy theories alloat are
without foundation. Constable Holland
says that after Detective Silleck of New
York had seen The dead burglars Douglas
and Mosher ut Judge Van Brunt's house,
and had expressed his great disappointment
at the sudden death or MoshCr, whose i'll
formation alone could reveal the boys

A Chapter Of Mishnps,

Mr.. Samuel Kellogg was drawing logs
on his mill pond at East Concord, last
Saturday, with two yokes OF oxen, when
they broke through the ice. Mr.. Kellogg
being alone was unable to get them out,
and went for help. Mr.. A. ID. Parker was
the first help Mr.. X. found, and Parker
jumped on his horse and went for more
help, which he found in the person of
Frank Warren, who harnessed up his team
and run il mile to the pond on arriving
there he jumped out of his sleigh to help,
but his horse had got on his "run' and kept
running, so it was of no service to help pull
the cattle out. At this stage of the game
the Misses Russell came along and word
was sent by them tor more help. They got
little excited and got up great speed
with their horse, and running against a
stone beside the road they were tipped over
and their horse ran three miles. The cattle
remained in the pond about three-quarter.

entitled, "Lolly Drinks Doings-By his
mother, old Mrs. Drinks, alias Elizabeth

to our readers, Is the poet-wife of the poet
husband r. II. S'oddard. Every mother
in the land knows the "sweet prckly rose

capers, and ''the crooked words that come
out of his little coral lips and the mothers

hates the moral tackled on at the end. Mrs.
Drinks tries to impart useful knowledge in
the shape of lecture on Ornlhology, and
he clamors for a story of giants, or fairies,
or ogres, or, leastways, of a lion-hunt.
His exploits with the scissors throw all the
