Great Men as Parliamentarians.

Speaking of the House of Com
mons as a most difficult and mex
plicable audience to please, Macau-
lay asks, "What are you to think
of an assembly where Peel is always
accepted and Macintosh is not
listened to? where even Burke and
Erskine were regarded as dinner
bells?" Now, what on more min
ute investigation does this, which
appears at first sight so smart and
telling, prove really to mean ?
What is the estimate thus epigram-
matically recorded worth ? Mack
intosh was, of course, man, of
great ability and requirements, but
he was pre-eminent in nothing,
and Lord Dalling, in his portraits
of eminent men, has very Justly
styled him the Disappointing
man." A Scotch Medico, with a
good deal Of legal, literary and
metaphysical knowledge, and a
good deal of Scotch brogue, has
not in him the elements of parlia-
mentary success. But no man
was ever more perfectly fitted for
the command Of the House of Com
mons than Peel. With a knowl-
edge of finance which was unsur-
passed, with q power Of debate
which every one was compelled to
respect, with courageous spirit
which enabled him to discard the
errors Of his party when he found
they were'errors, a minister whose
government fixed forever the COM
mercial policy of England on the
broad, just and immovable basis OF
free trade-such a statesman had a
paramount and indefeasible claim
to the consideration Of the House
of Commons. That Erskine failed
in the House of Commons is true,
as it is true of very many lawyers
At the bar he was pre-eminent and
Incompatible, but a jury is an au
dience very different from the
House Of Commons, and mar
may be admirable with the one who
could not obtain a hearing from the
other. That Burke failed in the
House of Commons is not true
though there can be no doubt. thai
he was often injudicious and en-
deayored to address the House
when it was in no humor to lister
to his sage and profound senti
ments. He was, as Goldsmith pu
it, one who,
"TOo deep for his hearers. still went on re

There are two sorts of justice for
duelists in Germany, one for mill
tary and one for civilians. Some
times this distinction is made very
conspicuous, as, for instance, in a
Berlin newspaper the other day.
Two paragraphs, one after the
other, record respectively that a
lieutenant having recovered from
the wound received in a duel with
a comrade, has just resumed duty,

Beauty in the Surf at Long Branch.
Letter to the WOrld.l
Women do bathe. l have seen
them. But centre nous) l don't
believe they ever do, in the sea at
least, unless there is provisions
made for spectators.
Why, the girl of my heart, the
bouncingest belle of West nd,nevet
has the faintest desire to go into the
surf unless there is a goodly array
of people on the bluff. And then
and then-knowing, while she
pretends to despise it, that beauty
unadorned, and so forth-she comes
out in a ravishiug bathing suit that
shames the devices, the pads, the
curves, the outlines of art, as the
Venus of Milo shames the candy
doll. :
And she cries 80, DEAR" in the
piercingest pathos as she treads on
smooth clam-shell, and tries to
look like Narcisse, and hopes to
heaven there is no ground swell or
sharks in the two inches of water
running through her pink toes, and
then she wades out like Aphrodite
and looks up to the bank for SYM
pathy-and so like a divine Jelly
fish goes on to serene glory in the
safe ripples! Men come all the way
from Dakota to see her.

Pail Mall Gazette.l
A letter from st. Petersburg IN
the Borsenzeitung says that the ma
val force which is to be sent by
Russia to Turkish waters is much
smaller than that which is being
got ready for service in the East by
the German government in the
harbors of Wilhelmshafen and
Kiel. At Ronstadt the vessel Sc
lected for the above duty is the
ironclad frigate Petropavlovsk,
twenty-five guns; the steam clipper
Cruiser is to proceed from Reval,
and the steam corvette Askold, with
the screw frigate Svetlana, com
manded by the Grand Duke Alexis,
are to be sent from the Pir@us. Be
side the above vessels the only rep
resentatiyes of the Russian fleet in
the East will be the screw corvette
Sokol, which has been sent to the
Dardanelles from Nicolajef, and the
paddle steamers Taman and Buy
ukdere, attached to the Russian
embassy at Constantinople.
This force, observes the corre-
spondent, will be almost insignif-
cant when compared with the Ger
man and Austrian ironclads and
the English, Italian and French
fleets which have proceeded to the
Dardanelles. The decision of the
Russian government to send ships
Of war to the East was, indeed.
rather a consequence Of the confer
ence at Berlin than of the Salonics
affair OF the agitation among the
Mussulmans in Constantinople; anc
It's object is merely to put a pres
sure on the Porte with a view tt
inducing it to accept the pro
gramme drawn up by the power
at the conference.
