The rebellion Of the army of the
United States from $4,000 men to
$4,000 seems to meet with very gen
eral approval. Although the reduc-
tion was in measure the result of
necessity, for the reason that Congress
adjourned without providing the usu
al appropriations for the payment of
the troops, it does not appear to have
created any serious discomfort, and
the. result is likely to prove very adj
vautageous to the country by demon
strating how billions can be saved
without detriment to the public SER
vice. Now that the beligerens Indl.
an tribes have been Iplacated and the
necessity Gf any existed) for the en-
plcyment of troops in the Southern
States has passed away, the work of
retrenchment in the army expenses
may well be carried further until we
get down to the number of troops
that was considered sufficient in time
of peace for all purposes prior to the
outbreak of the civil war. In 1860 a
force OF 10000 men was considered
quite sufficient tor the purpose of
holding the forts and protecting the
frontier.

1.-THE determination to mass the

wise administration Of President
Hayes, is making little progress, but
that single Southern State will be
carried for any other party than the
straight Democratic in 1880 | do not
now believe. Those who manifest an
independent turn of mind will be
whipped back into line, and the old
order of things continue. Three years

1.-The Catholic Revieac, in its able
leader last week, does not hesitate to
state as its opinion regarding Russia
that a bad Christian is worse than a
good Turk, and that the Russian rul-
ers have for many years showed them
selves to be such very bad Christians
that the Christian subjects of the Sui
tan dread nothing 80 much as change
from Turkish to Russian rule. The
picture it draws of Russian oppression
in the past is strong one, and the
facts it uses in its makeup are histori-
cal. 1t affirms that in view of its past
record it is impossible for q good
American, having any religious belief
Or love of justice and right whatever,
to sympathlze with and wish success
to Russia in the war which she has
now forced upon Turkey. 1t is not
surprised that Christians in Turkey
are praying that they may be saved
from this protector of the oppressed"

The FRANKLlNG PR1v1LEGE.-At
the close of the last session Congress
restored the frankling privilege as far
as documents published by the Forty
fourth Congress were concerned. The
privilege has been well abused since
then. In the 10 days since the act
went into effect an average Of 10000
pounds Of documents have left the

had paid postage they would have
yielded the Government $1,000 daily,
