THIERS is treated in a somewhat different
strain, in the Paris correspondence of the
New York Nation from that to which we are
accustomed from press sympathising with
the republic. This correspondent, whose re-
gret that monarchy was not established af-
ter Sedan is undsguised, charges it to Thiers
that such was the case. Thiers could have
imposed his own will on the Chamber at Bor-
deaux, and he chose TO try the republic
This correspondent appears to believe that
Thiers's lookout for his personal fortunes die
tated this choice. Ambition, indeed, is his
Key to Thiers's character, and his great de-
feet was that he was revolutionist at heart,
as his father and grandfather were before him.
His republicanism was "sort of senile re-
turn to the instincts and sentiments of his
youth" The critic sums him up thus: "He
was too ardent and too ambitious for a sec
ond post, even for the post of minister; he
was too unruly, too revolutionary, for the
hrst post. He went through power-he
could not keep it." 1t appears that
ne suggested to Gambetta the two
words which end the speech for which
the ex.dictator is to be soon prosecuted, ''se
sounettre on Sc demettre," meaning that
there was no choice for Marshal MacNfahon,
in face of a new Republican majority, but to
submit to its dictates or to resign. He kl 'ew
what hold marshal of France will alwa, rs
have on this people; he once said, s'N ne

AMONG the strange incidents of the war in
the East is the eagerness the Russian soldiers
show for the purchase of the Bibles sent for
their use by the British and Foreign Bible
Society. Over 10000 Bibles have been
bought by them since the Russian armies
crossed the Pruth. An agent says that the
readiness of the soldiers to buy is unparal-
leled in the experience of the society's Cont.
mental work. 1t is strange thing, he says,
when fierce-looking Cossacks, rmed to the
teeth, thank you ten times over for having
brought them the New Testament, and when
they can scarce be restrained from taking
you up in their bony arms to give you well
meant hug of gratitude. And not only do the
men buy, but they also read, The Russian
soldier, he says, has yet TO be discovered who
would speak an irreverent word of the Holy
Gospel. The commanding officer has fire.
quently been the first to buy number o.
copies, which he himself would distribute al
once as gift to the common soldiers around

Current Comment.

The man who prophesied that this was to
be a dull political year, begins to think he
must have said it in fun.
Georgia is very desirous of having the late
Herschel V. johnson placed upon the SUI
preme bench to rattle around in the Davis
vacancy. The late Aleck Fl. Stephens is al
Washington urging it.
The Iowa Democrats are in dreadfully
unhappy condition. Three of the leading
party organs refuse to support the candidate
for Governor, and declare with much vigor
that they "repudiate' him. Well, it does
not seem necessary to make such a time
about it. The people will do the same thing
quietly on election day.
General Banning, of Cincinnati, is a cool
customer. In the face of the confessed
frauds on the ballot box, by which he secured
his election to Congress, he mounts the
stump and denounces the registry law which
which makes a repetition of the frauds im-
possible. or course it is natural he should
have strong feelings toward such an inter-
ference with his methods, but it would have
been decent to keep still about them.
The new Senator from Missouri, whom the
Governor is to appoint to succeed Mr.. Bogy,
will have chance to nearly finish the term
before the Legislature can act on the case.
Unless there is a special session called, the
Legislature will not meet till January 1879,
and the term expires in March of that wear.
Who the man will be is unknown. The ru.
NOR that Governor Phelps intended to resign
andl have the Lieutenant Governor appoint
him to the vacancy is authoritatively denied.
The st. Louis Globe Democrat is having
heaps oil fun out of its suggestion to Gov.
Fhelps that he appoint Carl Schurz to the
place in the Senate made vacant by the
death OF Senator Bogy. 1t closes one pas
sionate appeal in these words: Thus far the

side, and in spite of the numerous and touch

brook, in New York. for an injunction to re-

Tragedan." The Count claims that the

such, and that he ought to have at least
$4,000 by way of damages. The Judge
