hshmen may still cherish in a possible future for
the island 1t is long since they have had an op-
portunIty Of reading anything more conclusive
than Mr.. Forbes's demonstration Of the utter
worthlessness Of Cyprus" miserable island in
dead angle of the Mediterranean "-as a military
post. That is q point on which Mr.. Forbes is an
anthorlty-sO IS he on the other points he dis
cusses, for lie tells Of that which he has
seen and knows. There we're Liberals who COM
planned of his famous article Bulgaria in the
same periodical that it gave aid and comfort TO the
Tories and the "JingOes" No such complaint will
be heard of this. nor will the reading of it give
much pleasure either to Mr.. Cross. the Minister who
has spoken most stOutly for Cyprus, or to Lord
Beaconsield.
Dir. Forbes as you have heard, was himself one
OF the victims to Cyprus fever, and recalled
that account. You would never find it out from
his article. He stopped at Malta, was again laid up
at Messlna with a fresh relapse, which kept him
from going to Bosnia, and arrived in London some
days since in fairly good condition. but bringing in
his body the seeds of one more chronic malady.
HIS previous campaigning had supplied bin with
good assortment, and few more might bring down
his mental and physical powers somewhere near
the ordinary human average. He has clung to his
plan of lecturinE America this Winter, but if the
war with AIghanlstan comes off / doubt whether

motive. So may the board. There is possible
danger in lodging the power in the hands Of the
superior officer that does not also exist IN the board
There is possible evil opportunity to the officer
which does not also offer itself to the
board. Aud there is the added danger
that while the officer is directly and person
ally responsible for the work DONE the board is not
The board is but a remote and abstract body. Gov
ernment by boards one of the worst forms of gov
ernment. GOvernm ent by boards tends always
to government by one man, aud he not ap-
pointed bv the people, not known to the
people not responsible to the people. Indeed
greatly fear 1t is some lurking truth IN his
charge upon the boards of my beloved MasSachu-
scts that enabled General Butler TO chase the terr
fed Democracy from Worcester 10 Faneull Hail. TO
exlort from the ahrighted Republicans wild Mace

Never has been harvested a richer crop OF favorlt-
ism. persOnasm bargainism than since the lnau-
puration of Reform. Reform has been adopted
inst far enough TO furnish the appointing
mower an excuse for dsregardlng the usual
and proper Difference to the dominant party, the
usual and proper coureses of public life, and for
doing exactly as it pleased for its own persohai
purpose Reform has never made any manly ana
muscular attempt to prOmulgate even us
own principles. 10 has made proclama-
tions and displaced good officers, but II
has never sought discussion or craved legisa-
tion. Representative Cox has informed us of the
delight he is going to experience at the in-
terruptions he is going to meet in the speech
he is going to make upon the Presidential
message that is going to be sent to Congress
upon Civil Service Reform but the message has
not been sent and the speech has not been uttered
and the nterru: tons have not been made and MIR.
Cox has the delight all to himself.
Reform has but been made screen behind
which the distribution of the spois has
been going on not only without the moral
elevation which it's sincere adherents demand, but
without the common discretion which the old ma
chnsts practised. Everything that is praise
worthy in this Carnival of Reform belongs to Old
Line Repubicanism. Reform has touched nothing
which il has not tainted. And il has so pcriiled
Repubcanism that we have now in the
second year of tins Reform Administration
the extraordinary spectacle of the Prince
of retormers laying his reform thunders by, and
meekly saving ditto to the prince OF machinists, and
for that mere act receiving the highest plaudIts
from great people which, in Its disgust for the
sham of the new time; are in danger of forgetting
the real shame of the old. GAIL HAMILTON.
