Our London cable letter this morning
brings the usual budget of important news
and interesting gossip. The Queen has rs
sumed her imperial title sand the Times is
laundering away at the Empress Of India !;
but resistance is hopeless and the English
people must content themselves to be the
subjects of an Indian Empress instead of a
British Queen. A funny coincidence in
this matter is the double action of the
politicians in congratulating Her Majesty
upon the assumption of her new title and
the return of the Prince of Wales. The flu
ture Emperor is not to be forgotten by the
astute tory at such a. time. While
this is going on nothing could be more
opportune than to oppose the release of the
Fenian prisoners and attribute American
friendliness to Condor to political strata
gem. The probable release of Winslow
under such circumstances is a singular COM
mentary on English justice and English
regard for international obligations. Turn
ing to lighter matters we find that Miss Dick
inson, of Colonel Baker notoriety, has not
married lord, but IL will not be surprising
if she is reported married as often as her
famous American namesake Miss Kate
Field has made very successful London
debut under the stage name of Mary

her performance, and she is in a
fair way of acquiring o great Euro

EMPRESS AT LAsr.-The Queen of England
is IN Empress at last, but we question, all
things considered, whether Her Majesty has
not paid too much for the bauble The OPP
position to this title developed an indepen-
dence Of court influences resolution to
criticise even the sacred throne" and
conviction that, after all, the monarchy was
trapping which cannot but have an important
bearing upon the future Of English politics.
Tho title Of Empress was simply fancy of
the Queen. Instead of acting with the OPP
position in gratifying this fancy the govern
mcnt forced it through by the sheer infu-
cncc of majority. 1t is safe to say that tho
minority, large as it was. represented the
zeal strength and greatness OF England. The
Queen should not take such Liberties with
the public opinion. This is thinking age.

Our religious exchanges have not tired yet
extolling the labors of Moody and Sankey at
the Hippodrome, commenting on the strong
and weak points of Moody's discourses, his
plain, practical and peculiar style, the fruits
of his ministry here and the discussion Of
methods to carry on the work. If it be true,
as the Observer states, that four thousand
protested converts attended the closing SER
vices, the meetings were very far from being
4 failure. And last Sunday DR.. Booth, who
took an active interest in the work, stated
that one million two hundred and fifty
thousand persons attended those meetings,
and more than ten thousand as inquirers.
Notwithstanding his radicalism on the bap-
tismal-communion question, the Examiner
and Chronicle is delighted with his sincerity
and earnestncss, with his power of illus
tration, with the extent of doctrinal truth
which his sermons covered. And it is impos-
sible that the effect of all this should not be
widely and deeply felt. The Baptist Weekly
thinks that if the work ceases now because
Moody is not here it will be a grave mistake,
and will give evidence that Christian people
cease to pray and work as they have done

Nothing could be more interesting than
the kaleidoscope review of European affairs
and of men and things in Europe contained
in our Paris cable letter this morning In
France the political agitation is about am
nesty and Gambetta's financial bill. Russia
is trying to settle the Eastern question in her
own way, which, fortunately for Turkey, is
nobody elso's way. Spain is seeking some way
out of national bankruptcy, and the other
Powers afford nothing worth relating. An
interesting bit of news is the running of an
express train between Paris and Constanti-
nople at lower rate of fare. This enter
prise will do more to settle the Eastern ques-
ton than Count Andrassy's scheme or Rus
sias policy. A funny discovery is the fact
that duellists in France, like ships-of-war, are
beginning to wear armor; but if the practice
is allowed it will prove the destruction of
the code" brave man will not fight if
it is impossible to kill his antagonist or get
killed instead. In theatrical matters little
is doing in Paris. Foncieres new opera,
'Dimitri," is soon to be produced at the
GaYte Lyrique, and Gounod's liberty hymn
is pronounced failure. 1t seems that
"Hail Columbia" was unequal to the de-
mands of orchestration or the scorer unequal
to the difficulties of "Hail Columbia !"
Henry Stanfeld, an American tenor, has
made a successful debut at Florence, and
Miss Minnie Hauck is in Paris on her way
home. Somebody has seen Tweed in Paris,
but we are afraid the Boss has no disposition
to return, now that he has become sThe
American Baron" These and other matters
will interest the reader and show the value
of our weekly mflange of news and gossip.
THE Nxw YORK Times charges that the re-
publicans in this city have 'made politi-
cal decker" by which the Park Department,
the Finance Department and the Police De-
partment have been turned over to Tam
many Hail. This is serious charge. ANY
alliance between the republicans and the
Tammany people is not good faith with the
anti-Tammany people, who helped them to
elect their ticket last fall, giving the re-
publicans the District Attorneys Office and
the control of the Assembly and the senate.
But more than all, the republicans are
shrewd men. They will not give John Kelly
his way in these important departments of
the government without some return What,
then, is the consideration? Does Tam
many mean to sell out the election for the
Presidency next fall to the republicans ?
Was that what the Honorable John Norris
sew had in his mind when he said in his bold
bluff, frank, manly way that he did not want
to 90 to st. Louis to beat Tilden? The truth
is that if Tammany Hall could name a New
York President it would not do SO. Anew

AMNESTY IN PANS We do not like these

Is by demonstrations" like these that scan
ials are brought upon the Republic. Until
ihe hew government crystallizes at least
there should be no demonstrations" of
any political character Let the republicans
remember that their government is on trial !;
that there is scarcely a nation in Europe
that does not wish it to fail that the ennis
Baries of tho Bourbons and Bonapartcs could
well afford to pay largely to have these
demonstrations, and that nothing will do
the Republic more good than generation of
profound peace.

aforetime. The Independent thinks revival
theology is far from being complete; never
theiess, this is no dispaagement to it and
now that the wave Of religious excitement Is
subsiding and the churches are returning to
the ordinary routine of religious life it gives
some practical hints to the young converts
and to those who may have the oversight OF
them. The Interior rebukes the hypercritics
OF Moody's style and diction, and says that
when such men come along we are not to
weigh them in the balances of the exact sci
ences nor measure them by the rigid rules OF
logic Still, the Interior would not have
every man appoint himself preacher. God
and the Church should call them and conf
mission them. Moody's ministry will un-
doubtedly very greatly affect the preach
ing class in future. In the Mstho-
disfs opinion the Hippodrome meetings
have rendered revival efforts respectable
In the eyes of multitudes Of city people.
And that is worth nothing, or much, just as
it is made use Of The Christian Weekly recon-
mends ministers to initiate Moody in put
ting less head and more heart into their SER
mons; and the EUdngelist cannot conceive that
there is any antagonism between head and
heart, and intellectual preaching is not less
useful, it thinks, than emotional preaching.
What is needed is the habit of diligent,
earnest and patient study: have something
to say and say it. The Christian InteAigcncer
is anxious to know what will become of all
the converts made, not only here, but all
over the country. If rightly trained they
may become great gains to the working
forces Of the churches and accessions to the
future ministry. Looking backward to the
revival of 1888, which was followed by
four years of civil war, it looks forward and
sees in the distance 1.-THE near beginning of
tremendous struggles with the Papacy
and infdelity and other forms of anti
Christian power" Those Bible truths
preached at the Hippodrome, though re-
jected by some, were received by others, and,

courts of heaven with anthems of joy and
paeans of praise.

A Political Problem.

The Evening Post, our steady and quite
consistent neighbor, published on Friday
very powerful leading article on the pro
ceedings of the democrats at Utica, in which
it said that Governor Tilden was not the
real choice of the Convention for Presi-
Dental candidate !" that he received
only gaseous words of praise" and
that 'Tilden was not its choice, but Sey-
mour." "The Utica Convention" we were
told, evidently was not sincerely for Til
den." Yesterday, however, the Evening Post
informed the public, in another very power
full leading article, that mo one who is at
oil acquainted with the condition Of public
sentiment in this State can for a moment
doubt that Governor Tilden is the choice, as
a candidate for the Presidency, Of nearly oil
sensible and honest democrats throughout
the State and of large number Of those who
are not strongly attached to either party"
We trust these two able articles will be fully
reconcilcd in another very powerful leader
tomorrow. Either the Post is for Tilden
or it isn't. Let it decide the dispute which it's
own columns have created. "Under which
