The Speakership of the American

honor, of dignity, of power, of RESPONSE
Dlllty. It's duties are at once complex
and continuous. They are both onerous
and delicate. They are performed in the

instant and rigid accountability. Par
liamentary rulings in their very nature
are peremptory, almost absolute in
authority. Inst antaneOls in effect, they
can not always be enforced in such a
way as to win applause or secure pOpu-
larity.

policy.

the best under all the circumstances
by which we were surrounded. On
the morning of the 9th, according to
the reports of the ordinance officers
there were 1892 organized infantry
with arms, with an average of 75 rounds
OF ammunition per man. The artillery.
though reduced to to 90 pieces, with
SO rounds of ammunition, was suff1-
cient. These comprised all the SUD-
plies of ordinance that could be relied
on in the State of Virginia. I have
no accurate report of the cavalry, but
believe it did not not exceed (, 100 effec-
tive men. The enemy was moro than
five times our numbers. II we could
have forced our way one day longer.
1t would have been at great sacri-
fee of life and at its end did not see
how surrender could have been avoi-

fcers into peculation, our business men into
dishonorable practices, and those holding pri-
vate trusts into embezzlement, may be traced
largely to the absurd social determinations
that are made On basis Of money. There
will be no aocial aristocracy in this country
that anybody can be proud of until it is
reared On some other foundation than this.
Indeed, moneyed aristocracy is rather the
worst phase Of social democracy, which i'd
mits one man to bo as good as another man
with the same amount of money, or one
woman as good as another woman who wears
as much fashionable clothing, sits in front
row at theatre, and has the highest-priced
pew in church. It is to be hoped that our
social progress moy some day take the op-
posite direction, and that some other distinc-
ton than that OF relative cost may determine
the relative social position one occupies

The present French Assembly is given the
power of electing seventy 1--we Senators, to
serve for life The remainder Of the Upper
House is chosen by the different departments,
and the men elected serve for term OF
years, like cur Senators It is very remark
able fact that five ont OF every seven SO far
elected BY the Assemhly-thirty ont of the
forty~two-are Republicans. This is the
more surprising, inasmuch as the Assembly
has been anti-Repubican and the whole
weight Of the MAcMAHoS Administration has
been e1erted in behalf Of Conservatism. It
shows TINT public opinion has greatly changed
and augurs sweeping Republican majority
in the new Assembly, which will be elected
next spring. France is evidently fast drift
ing towards democracy,-whatever that word
may mean to the Gallo mind The two
French Republics Of the past have both ended
their brief lives in despotisms it remains to
be seen whether the third viii be equally un-

that there WAS m Internal machine on hoard
the steamer Salier, which sailed Dec Is IN
place Of the Mosel The alleged fact rests
only on the authority of a small newspaper
in Bremerhayen. The Salier was not billed
to sail until fortnight hence, end had there
fore not received her hiding. The cargo and
surviving pas engers of the Mosel were trans
ferred to her. It is highly improbable that
there were two machines On board the Mosel
The mechanic employed by THOMAS had
made only one. In any event, the news,

Il is sheer cruelty to expose those who have

The Boston Plot (Roman Cathoic), IN
commenting upon the school-fund recon-

Papists, how many fools do you think would
tear up pavins-stones to assail their Catholic
fellowcitizens: There is some OF the Old

lies, with President Grant as its hgure-head.

ated by high public motives, they would
unite in a common withdrawal OF their
names and the presentation OF some third
gentleman who would be recognized uni
yersally as proper person to be intrusted
