INrRIGrrs N FRANCE.

Alarming runners are just now coming
from France. runners which. II they are
justified by facts, render IL probable that
another revolution is about to be inau-
guraisd in that restless and uncertain
country. this time to put the Prince I'M
ptrial on the throne Of his father. Tho
fact that the conservative papers are
clamorins for q declaration Of martial
Law. and that a majority Of the ministers
secretly favor, even II they have not
openly advocated. this measure. Is Of
ominous import. and the report that tie
influence Of the Bonspartists il to 10
strengthened in the Cabinet. and that
the Prince Imperial Is to hold a council
Of war at Chisslhurst IL far from reas-
surfing. 1t is very possible that the civil
may be turned into a military coup d'etdi.
At first sight. all the chances seem to
be against this. The President il neither
u fool nor a knave. but he is surround
ed by csnsrirators. lie has no aympa-
thy with Republican institutions. as all
the world kaows, bat he has the patriot.
ism and the loyalty Of a soldier. He is
thoroughly loyal to France. AMI jealous
OF his honor. He will serve out his
term with the new ministry which his
wife has appointed rather than violate
the Constitution. HiO Polignao cabinet
can drag him to the brink Of usurpa-
ton. but not over il. But the adyentu.
rers who surround the President Of the
Republic may conspirs against hin as
against France. They will carry him
with them II they can. bat strike him
down 10 they must. The Home Minis
ter and his Bonapartist allies realize
that the Marshal will resist all their ei.
forts to ~rs.estAblish the Empire. anil
they Ms prepared to shut him up for
~forty-eight hours aud transform him
into q Grand Constable Of France after
Napoleon ~. Is seated on the throne.

this 10 by mo means Improbable.
The Due 10 Broglis is by birth AZ
orleanist. but no u who has studied
his political course eau doubt that he
would willingly become q B%onapariist
Prime Minister. Tho Bonapartisis are
already in possession Of the most infiu'
entail departments Of iLs Government.
and the Prince Imperial is the only
claimant TO the throne Of France who il
popular with the army. They know
that France always torgives success. AMI
they believe that andaciiy aud force al

within the next year the Republic

rnE PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS.

The inconsistency Of the resolutions
passed by the State Convention OF the
Pennsylvania Democrats yesterday is
only equallsd by that OF Holster ely
mer. who declared in one and the same
breath. that President Hayes was a
fraud. but that all good Democrats must
support him. As We have remarked
before, this is good Democratic doctrine.
for Democracy, so called. was conceived
in fraud. brought forth in fraud. and
has been u fraud ever since its incep-
ton. II has gained what little OF

sense Of the word. Means Z" friendship

the men who have proved the real
friends of the poor, who made the
workingman OF the South the peer 81
the plantation owner by the abolition Of
slave labor. are the Republicans. How
long will II be before laborers will recoe-
nize this fact. and support the only
party which has ever done them any
real and substantial good3
The Democrats Of Pennsylvania begin
their platform with the proposition that
Tildsn. and not Mr.. Hayes, was elected
President last November. and then 10
on to approve the policy OF President
Hayes, and pledge their support to him.
This is like saying a man In q thisf. but
we thoroughly approve his acts. The
absurdity Of this is 40 evident that 1t
scarcely calls for comment. and we only
refer to IL to show how thoroughly cor

Story of n Tramp.

This is the story that tramp told to n
reporter of the Journal, in Dayton, o.
He went to Brazil in 1864 and tried his
luck in the diamond fields. His COM
panions committed a robbery, and he was
so much implicated that he shared their
fate of being sentenced to death. They
were guillotined together, and afterward
he was surprised to awaken to conscious
ness and find that he was alive. He felt
a strange sensation at his throat, and was
unable to stir. A man was bending over
him. Then he became unconscious
again, and the next that he knew he was
abed. The man whom he had seen be-
fore explained that he was physician,
and had obtained from the Government
permission to experiment on the bodies
He had quickly joined a decapitated
head to body, and made the two grow
together. The patient recovered fast,
but he soon discovered that his body was
not the one he had previously possessed.
The physician had blunderingly joined
his head to the trunk of Pedro, Brazil
ian. $50 you see," said the tramp,
"my head is all right, but my body has
all the laziness of Pedro, who was q
shiftless vagabond. You don't believe
it? Look here" pulling down his shirt
at the neck, "don't you see that line
around my throat? Above it the skin is
white, but below it the color is dark. !"
The reporter, however, was unable to
discern any mark or difference in color.
