but to this the Queen demurred, for
reasons which her uncle considered
conclusive. She was herself. she
urged, too young, so also was the
Prince, and, moreover, his mastery
of the English language Was still
very imperfect. The Prince, on be
ing made aware Of what was propos-
ed, and of the necessity of delay,
very sensibly declared himself will
ing to submit, if he had only some
certain assurance to go upon F" But,
he said to King Leopold, :" if after
waiting perhaps three years should
find that the Queen no longer desir-
ed the marriage, it would place me
in ridiculous position, and would,
to certain extent, ruin all my pros
poets for the future" :" This serious
question was, however, soon settled
in way entirely satisfactory to the
Prince mind, and in the winter of
1888 h. set out on protracted and
interesting tour through Italy, re-
turning to Coburg in the following
May.
Meanwhile political events IN Eng
land, which it is needless to go into,
made it desirable that the question
of TIE queen marTiage,shouid again
be pressed. Those who had her well
fare most at heart were anxious to Sc
cure for her without longer delay
husbands guidance and support. To
effect this was, however, no simple
matter. All that the Queen had
heard of the Prince was most favora-
Bile. Her inclination towar lin re-
NAMED unchanged, and, to use her
own words, .s.she never had an ide&.

Still she desired delay (; and the

Grant and His Now Secretary.

The appointment OF Chandler to the po-
sition of Secretary of the Interior, made
vacant by the forced resignation Of the
hero of the big Indian steal, does not APP
pear to be popular at the West. The Mis-
souri, Republican says:
The surprise which the appointment of
Chandler has occasioned among even the
warmest friends of the administration,
| SOON, NC onti~aly ,,nnal1nl s5I In
deed, there would have been much great
er occasion for establishment if this APP
pointment, or one similar to it, had not
been made. Certainly, after six years of
Grant nobody ought to be so dull as not
to understand the most marked and re-
markable peculiarities of his official char
acter Not only has he evinced from the
beginning settled antipathy to really Ca
pable men, and never, except in one or
two instances, allowed himself to be ;sso-
ciated with anything above the rank Of
amiable mediocrity, but lie has taken es-
| pecial pains to confer his patronage upon
those members of his own party which
the people have formally and emphati-
| cally repudiated. He has literally trans
formed our civil service, abroad as well
as at home, into 4 hospital for decayed
and crippled politicians. The fact that
| the communities which knew these inva-
lids best and employed them longest had
remanded them to the harmless obscurity
of private life, has always been, in his es-
timation, an all-sut1icient reason why they
should be placed in positions of honor and
| trust at the expense of the nation. II one
party hack has been kicked out of the
lower house by his disguised constitu-
ents, he finds Il salve for his wounds and
reinforcement for his pocket in q for
eign mission. If another is distanced in
a gubernatorial race, he is stabbed and
groomed in 4 tat relationship. If Il third
is gently removed from the senate by an
unfriendly legislature, he is provided with
a soft cushion in the cabinet. And so on
through all the gradations of political mis-
tortune-providing of course, they are of
the Republican household OF faith, and are
not accompanied with brains beyond the
administration standard
This is Grants idea of sticking to ones
friends, and maintaining the balance Of
power. Chandler was made Secretary of
the Interior, not because he is fitted for
the place, not because he is likely to be
any improvement of Delano, not because
the decent portion of the party wanted
him there, but because he has always
been "a Grant man" through thick and
thin, and because the people of Michigan
have dispensed with his services. Had
he been deficient in loyalty to the Presi-
dent, or managed by hook OF crook to re-
tain his senatorial dignity he might have
possessed the executive gerA.ls of Richie
lieu, combined with the moral purity of
the Apostle Paul, and he would never
have been called upon to contribute his
craftsmanship to the deliberations of cab
met councils.

alone that he does not approve the statute
under which complaint is made. His
oath and conscience should bar him from
such a course. The remedy for bad law
is to be found in other directions, and
repeal is much more likely to be aided by
enforcement than contrary course. But
there are many proper and lawful consid-
erations which may operate on the minds
of jurors towards the negative-tbc cred
Utility of witnesses, the motives of COM
claimants, the probabilities of conviction
under the testimony the trivial nature Of
complaints, &c. For these they cannot
be brought to account, for they are mat
tiers of conscience.
The most serious portion Of the charges
made by the Prog. Age are those which
remain to be noticed, and which mean, if
they mean anything, that two Democratic
members who had been drawn before the
state election, and were candidates for
county offices, made a corrupt bargain,
by themselves or others, whereby their
action and influence us jurors were sold
for votes. The two Democratic members
who have just been elected to county oili-
ces are Crosby Fowler, Of Unity, County
Commissioner, and Richard III. Moody, OF
Belfast, County Treasurer. Mr.. Fowler is
one of the most substantial farmers of
Waldo county, and one of the most honor
ed and respected citizens of his town. Mr.,
Moody is a young man, druggist OF eN-
cellent character and reputation in all re
spccts. Such men. about to be called to the
discharge of positions of trust, ought not to
be assaileu in such loose, slang Wkanglng
STYLE, without some real cause The accu-
sation is most serious one fer if true it
strikes at the very foundation Of morality.
law and order If it is not true, as there is
every reason to believe, then the accusers
should be exposed and punished. But it
is very probable, if an investigation shall
be had, that the man whose memory could
not retain an Oaln OF secrecy between lle
jury room and an evening meeting, will
not be found entirely trustworthy in other
respects And it may also be made to APP
pear that the editor of the Age on elec-
ton day made fruitless attempts to rally
to the polls "those heretofore republicans
who are alleged to be engaged in the trai-
tic in this city'-and hence these tears
over the corruption and degeneracy OF the
jury. The Age has doubtless gone the
longest distance for the smallest load of
spite this time, Of any instance since its
one horse team took the road
The Age has called upon the Court to
investigate the action Of the grand jury,
and made its charges. If the suggestion
is not acted upon. it will evidently be be-
cause they are regarded as untrue, and
instigated by malice. In that case the ac-
cusation will stand for what it is worth,
for the other jurors Will respect their oaths
of secrecy, even at the expense of bear
ing the calumnies of the Age and its open
mouthed informant
