CASTELAR, and the New Government.

The Madrid Discussion publishes an article
which, considering its relations with Seuor
Castelar,, may be looked upon as a declara-
ton of the attitude which that statesman
and his followers intend assuming toward
the new government. Though not feeling
very confident that the Spanish Republic
will be kept alive by the men who are now
at the head of affairs, to judge at least by
their antecedents and previous declarations,
the Discussion 8 has no intention of throwing
obstacles in their way SO long as they cling
to the republic, and, for our part, we will
take good care not to furnish any arguments
for the reaction. We would not accept
power acquired by violence, though by
violence we were driven from it. The
medium OF force, even if it were favorable
to us, would lead to extremities which we
are anxious to avoid. The country is in n
position to pass Judgment upon us from the
experience of the last two months. The
country, too, is well able to form it's opinion
as to the regime born of the coup a. d'etGt ON
the Sd of January, and to make compari-
son between the two. But, while we have
no blind passion for power, upon the other
hand we are passionately attached to the
republic and to ourcountry. Public opinion
was hostile to the assembly, but not to the
republic, as we had regulated it. Resigned
and easy in our minds, we await the day of
This day will arrive if, as
we hope, our party has sufficient moral
force to extirpate from its midst the eIe-
ments of disorganization which have done
US SO much harm, and if the men now in
power do not, forgetting the engagements
Of honor which they have taken, hand over
to the avidity of an Alphonsist reaction
Spanish democracy and republicanism. In
this latter case Spain would be torn BY fresh
revolutions and overwhelmed with disasters
even greater than those which we now have
to deplore. ''--Tgg .lfan Gasetts.

How Nice it is to be Supreme Court
Justice

Col. Forney writes that the judges or JUS
tees Of the Supreme Court are rather .iovial,
with all their gravity. They are asked
everywhere, and they so everywhere that is
proper. A sort of divinity hedges them
around about. They are first at every State
occasion, ornearly first. They are welcome
iigure-heads at weddings. They dominate
at great dinners. They decorate receptions
and balls. A justice or chief justice at a
party in Washington is like a prince at
drawingrUom III London or a cardinal in
Rome. They futter in and out Of the Sen
ate with a sage and solemn air of possession
| think it is i'll evidence that they often
condescend to sherry and champagne, and
fear that Grier and Nelson exceptionally
descend to old rye and whiskey. The whole
nine effect the drama. John Marshall un-
dou6etdly shed tears over Fanny Kemble,
just as the eminent Pennsylvania Chief
Justice, John Bannister Gibson, idolized
old Joseph Jefferson. Davis of Illinois,
and Swayne of Ohio, Miller of Iowa, and
Clifford Of Maine, do not deny their weak
ness for good opera or ballet, and Joseph
Story, like Caleb Cushing, enjoying good
novel, and wrote some very fair poetry
when he was young man.
So that there are many reasons why
statesman who has got through with other
Offices should aspire to round his career by
a seat on the velvet cushion Of the Supreme
Bench: 1t is for life. 1t is a social power.
It is cosy lookout on politics. It is
solid dignity. 1t not is an exhausting labor
The salary is good, and never touched ex-
cept to be raised. As the law is the royal
profession in this country, so Il place in the
Supreme Court is the only royal laurel
hat can be placed On the American lawyers
brow.
