WHERE is SCANDINAVIA ScandinaVia is
nota countryto which letter can DO addressed
it is only an idea. But in history the ideas are
of TWO kinds The ex king Of Hanover may
truly speak of his kingdom as AN idea. But
Hanover is al idea that has been; Scandinavia
is an idea that shall be. The one has died;
the other is about to be born; and, while no
one cares about the former, except tue his
tcrian aud (ot course) the cx king, every
mau who wishes to now a little more OF
what is going on in the world than he can see
from his own window, may take an interest 10
the latter.
The Scandinavian idea means combination
of the three northern countries, Sweden, Nor
way and Denmark. into one country-Scandl
navia. 1t intends to make the three different
nations which iuhabit these countries, one PEG.
pie, and the three different states which these
DatioDs have established, one political body. 1t
aspires to be the Inauguration Of a new people,
and the founder OF new state. 1t is an idea
of great pretensious and golden promises. =

Hon. Horatio Seymour is report
ed as saying that the Democratic nom
ination for the next President lies be-
tween Samuel J. Tilden and Sanford
Z. Church, of New York, Thomas H.
Hendricks, of Indiana, and Allen G.
Thurman, of Ohio. Either one of the
above named distinguished gentlemen
would make an acceptable nominee for
the Democracy and would undoubt,
edly fill the exalted position with
honor and satisfaction to the country.
They would elevate instead of degrade
the Presidential Office, as the present
incumbent has done. But don't let
us forestall, too much, the nomina-
tons of our approaching National
Convention. But let us abide the
hour and the men.

The condemnation of the Repub
lican policy III the Southern States by
Judge William d. Kelley, of Penn
sylvania, is m attack from new
quarter upon the arbitrary and unjust
course that the Administration has
pursued in that section. After voting
for the Force bill and sustaining the
oppressive legislation OF the Republic
can party in many respects, Judge
Kelley has done what he should have
done before, and what other Republi-
can Congressman should do at once.
He has made tour of the South for
purposes of personal observation, and
revolution has been wrought in his
opinions. lie openly declares that
the vote which he most regrets during
his fourteen years Of service in Con-
gress is the one cast last winter in ia
vor of the Force bill, and so far as his
observation has gone he sees no more
necessity f,r the use of Federal mill
tary force South than there is in Penn
sylvania or Ohio lie has talked with
all classes in various sections, and is
surprised at the good feeling existing.
He denies that the Ku-Klux are run
ming the South, but its troubles came
from other causes which force bills
and military cannot dispel. Judge
Kelley announces himself q sceptic
henceforth on the question of South
ern outrages. He does not believe in
them, and certainly has sincerity in
this must be acknowledged when it is
considered that his statements are Il
confession of error in some of his most
recent Congressional service. No
new light is afforded by this expose,
but the source is significant. Judge
Kelley, also, asserts, that the financial
Legislation of the Forty-third Congress
will have the effect OF reducing the en-
tire South to insolvency, and he pre-.
diets that if the policy fthat logsla-
ton is persisted in it will cost the
country more than the late war. He
not only makes plausible arguments in
support of these propositions, but Of
fers to prove by facts and figures the
accuracy Of his statements.

lights were plainly visible. Two OF
the boats on the steamer were crushed
by the falling Of the tunnel (; rockets
and guns were fired from the steamer
until powder became wet u; the deck
house crowded with people, was
swept away at 2 a. IN. The captain
gathered some of the survivors on the
bridge. All were gradually swept
away by the flood tide, which took
the doctor and captain last. The
rigging, which remained above water,
was crowded with passengers and crew
all night
Fifty.s mail bags including twen-
ty-seven from New Iceland, were say
ed from the Schiller. The steamer
Ponimenerana sailed from Plymouth
during the night for Hamburg, with
out taking any of the survivors of the
Schiller. The statements made by
the officers Of the Schiller add nothing
to the particulars already telegraphed !;

followed the striking of the ship was
