End Of The Water War.

San Francisco, July 6.-The Supreme
court yesterday rendered a decision In
the contest between the city and the
Spring Valley Water Co., 10y which the
city gains nearly every point for which
it has been contending during the last
eight years. Under the decision the
city gets water free for all purposes,
except family uses or analogous uses.
The water Is free for the great park,
for the public squares, engine houses,
iushing sewers, street sprinkling, etc.
The decision provides that the compa-
ny cannot legally collect water rates
without having first established and
made known the legal tariff Of rates.

London, June 6.-There Is still great
excitement over the dispatch of the
fleet to Casika bay. The explanation
given to the Powers that it was to
protect the Christians and British in
terests has strengthened the opinion
that the cabinet have determined to
interfere.
1t is generally believed that England
cannot escape war with Russia, which
Power Is affronted. 1t is said Russia
has addressed a remonstrance to Eng
land for her studied suspicion.
The Globe thinks the time has ar
rived for action and that the movement
of the fleet is q good beginning. 1t,
however, trusts and believes this is
only the beginning.
1t is said the courts of Berlin and
London have not been oyer-friendly,
and Germany will do all she can to
isolate England from the rest of the
European Powers in case Earl Beacon
field and his cabinet should decide upon
an aggressive policy.

The Supreme Court of Florida re-as-

matter of the return of the State Can

new count from the face of the returns.
The Court decided that the return of
the Board was no answer to the writ

was issued directing the Board to make
fresh canvass of the vote and to con-
fine themselves to the vote for Govern.

Not at all Surprising.

We are not surprised to learn from
the Democrat that it does not approve
the management of the REPUBLICAN,.
This is the best evidence we can nave
that we are pursuing the right course.
The Democrat does not want to hear
any more about the Democratic Union
League party, nor would it have us
discuss local politics as we have done,
showing up the mis- doings of its par
tisar friends. That the Democrat
should be opposed to ventilation of
the shortcomings of those whom it is
compelled to champion is natural
enough. We do not propose, however,
to shape our policy so as to meet the
views of the concern around the corner,
but shall continue, as occasion may re-
quire, to expose the hypocritical pro-
fessions Of the Democrat and those
whose special moutbpiece it is. It is
very evident that the taxpayers of the
city who are interested In an honest
and economical administration Of the
government have nothing to expect
from the Democrat as regards expos
ures of wrongful doings by those in
power. Indeed, instead Of calling
them to account for their illegal act.
ions, it defends their palpable violations
Of the law and tries to excuse them by
inventing falsehood to serve as a
screen behind which they can hide.
This makes it more incumbent upon
us than it would be were the Demo.
crat faithful to the city's interests, to
watch closely the manner in which the
public business is transacted, and we
shall not hest cate to do our full duty.
We would be glad to have the cooper
alton of the Democrat in this laudable
undertaking, but will, nevertheless, try
and get along without it. In the
meantime We trust our neighbor will
entertain kindly the suggestion that
the editorial articles in the REpUBLI.
CAN probably will not be any more sat-
isfactory to him in the future than
they have been in the past.

Ten volumes have now appeared. which
are full Of instructive and Interesting artic-
les and abstracts of articles, original, select
ed, translated, and illustrated from the pens
Of the leading scientific men Of different
countries. Accounts OF important scientific
discoveries, the application of science to the
practical arts, and the latest views put
forth concerning natural phenomena, have
been given by sauants of the highest author
ity. Prominent attention has been also de-
voted to those various sciences which help
to better understanding of the nature of
man, to The bearings of science upon the
questions of society and government, to
scientific education, and to the conflicts
which spring from the progressive nature of
scientific knowledge.

since ceased to be an experiment.. 1t has
passed into circulation far beyond the
most sanguine hopes at first entertained,
and the cordial aud Intelligent approx al
which it has everywhere met, shows that
its close and instructive discussions have
been well appreciated by the reading por-
ton OF the American people. 1t has not
been its policy to make ooastful promises
of great things to be done in the future,
but rather to appeal to what it has already
accomplished as giving it claim upon
popular patronage. But no pains will be
spared to improve it and make it still more
worthy of liberal support, and still more
necessity 10 the cultivated classes of the
country.
