FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, June 23.-The Govern
ment authorities received an anOny-
nous letter On Wednesday last
warning them that,an attempt would
be made ia Cheshire to upset the
railway train conveying Queen Vic
toria and Princess Beatrice from
Balmoral to Windsor on Saturday.
The railway line consequently was
guarded by hundreds of constables.
The journey, however was unevent-
ful, and the letter probably hoax.
The Times says: "Ihe embsr-
rassment of the Bonapartists is
increasingly manifest. The De Cas-
sagnac is reproached with indiscre-
ton in putting forward the claim of
Prince Victor Bonaparte as Imperial
successor"
In Sundays issue the DeCaSsaq-
nae admits that nothing has been
officially decided, though perhaps
decision may be made in few days.
1t is believed that Roher affected
ignorance of the will in favor of
Prince Victor, eldest son of Prince
Jerome Napoleon, because he cons
sidered its validity doubtful, unless
Prince Jerome Napoleon consents
to waive his claims.
Prince Jerome is very reticent
since his arrival in Paris, apparent
ly awaiting the action of Roher. 1t
is not believed that Prince Jerome
will agree to be pretender himself
or permit his son to become one, in
any event, Prince Victor is endeay-
oring to temporize in not distinctly
accepting the position. the Bona
partists will probably fall back on
Prince Charles Napoleon, President
of the Corsican Council. General
Prince Charles is 40 years of age,
has no sons or royal connections,
and is much less an eligible candi-
date than Prince Victor.
A telegram from Calico states
that the Peruvian iron-clad Huasear
has bombarded Antofagesta and
two Chilian transports.
The Chilian maneof-war Covadonga
Wooden has stranded. There has
been an indecisive engagement be-
tween the Husasear and two Chilian
iron-clads.

a Little Boys Sermon.

Harry began /; My text is q
short and easy one Be K Ktnd.
There are some little texts in the
Bible on purpose for little children,
and this is one of them. These are
the heads of my sermon.
"First: Be kind to papa, and
don't make a noise when he has a
headache, / don't believe you know
what headache is; but | do. I
had one once, and [ didn't want to
hear any one speak word.
"Second: Be kind to mama, and
don't make her tell you to do a

tiresome to say, 1T is time for you
to 90 to bed,' half dozen times
over.
''Third: Be kind to baby"

"Yes,' said Harry, 81 didn't
mean to mention my own name in
the sermon. | was saying: Be
kind to little Minnie, and let her
have your red soldier to play with
when she wants it.
"Fourth Be kind to Jane, and
don't scream and kick when she
washes and dresses you"
Here Eddie looked a little asham-
ed, and said, "But she pulled my
hair with the comb.
"People mustn't talk in meeting"
said Harry.
"Fifth: Be kind to Kitty. Do
what will make her purr, and don't
do what will make her cry"
"Isn't the sermon most done ?"
asked Eddie; 81 want to sing"
And without waiting for Harry to
finish his discourse or give out
hymn, he began to sing, and so
Harry had to stop.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-The fol-
lowing is a summary of the Presi-
dents message returning the
Judicial Expenses bill to the House
without his signature. The Presi-
dent begins by reciting a passage of
the original Legislative bill repeal
ing title 26 of the Revised Statutes
and its return to the House without
his approval. The object of the
present bill, he says, is not to re
peal the election laws, but to defeat
their enforcement under existing
laws. The failure of Congress
to make appropriations re-
quired for the execution of
the provisions of the election
laws would not prevent their en-
orcement. The right and duty to
appoint general and special Deputy
Marshals, which they provide for,
would still remain, and the Execu-
tive department. of the Government
would also be empowered to incur
the required liability for their COM
pensation, but the second section of
this bill contains a prohibition not
found in any previous legislation.
Its design is to render the cleo
ton laws imperative by omitting
to appropriate money for their en-
forcement, and prohibiting any Off
Ger of the Government from incur>
ring the liability under title 26
of the Revised Statutes authorizing
the appointment of deputy marshals
for service on election day. The
appointment of special deputy mar
shals is not, he says, a spontaneous
act of authority on the part of the
Government, but is made by section
2021 of the Revised Statutes pop
ular right of citizens in towns hav~
ing twenty thousand inhabitants and
upwards. The present bill neither
reVokes this popular right nor re-
lieves the Marshal of the duty
imposed by law, nor the President
of his duty to see that this law is
faithfully executed: He declines
to discuss again the wisdom and
necessity of the election laws, or
what he regards as the dangerous
and unconstitutional principle of
this bill. That the power vested in
Congress to originate appropriations
involves the right to compel the
Executive to approve any legisla-
ion which Congress may see
it to attach to such !
pills, under penalty of
'efusing the means needed to carry
IN the essential functions Of the |
His views on these
points were, he says, presented in
previous message, and he regards
hem conclusive as to his
Iuty in respect to this bill.

THE New York II. June says of La.

THE New York 2T 6une says of La
mar:
"Mr. Lamar forgets, too, that unG er
the reign OF new aud better civiIiz A.
tion than that which obtained before
the war, bullying is not in fashion,
and that the barbarism of the code to
which he so lOflily invited Mr. COnk-
ling is not in vogue. When he bristled
TO the front and construed Mr.. COnk-
ling's very proper and deserved scath-
Ing Of his party for their breach of
faith as personal TO himself, ne ex-
caeded the bounds OF parliamentary
courtesy. When he denounced Mr..
COnklinR's statements as false, he
played the blackguard. When he
hung out his unmitigated contempt
he played the bully. When To this he
added his final insult, that his own
language was such as no good man de-
served and no brave man would bear,
he became simply q contemplate
braggart, fauntisg his own disregard
for Law, and challenging his opponent
to descend to the level of his own law.

This Great Country of Ours.

Few people are aware that the
proud boast of Englishmen that the
sun never sets on the British EN-
pire, is equally applicable to the
United States. Instead of being
the western limit of the Union, San
Francisco is only about midway be-
tween the furthest Aleutian isle,
acquired by our purchase of Alaska,
and Eastport, Maine. Our territory
extends through 1877 degrees of
longitude, or seventeen degrees more
chan half way round the globe.
The Rocky Mountain Pcesby-.
terian, in commenting on this fact,
says: "When the sun is giving its
good night kiss to our westernmost
isle, ON the confines of Behring's
sea, it is already flooding the fields
and forests of Maine with its morn
ing light, and in the Eastern part
of that State is more than an hour
high. at the very moment when
the Aleutian fisherman, warned by
the approaching shades of night, is
pulling his canoe toward the shore,
the woodchopper of Maine is be-
ginning to make the forest echo
with the stirring music Of his axe.

The Way Vanderbilt Succeeded

When Commodore Vanderbilt was
running steamb mbOats he beat all rivals
by croWding on steam to the utmost,
and even running down his enemy if
necessary, to accomplish triumph.
When he went into railruadiDg, he
adopted much shrewder and more
successful way, by uniting vast lines
and their tributaries under his own
management, thus capturing all rivals,
by sharing with them the immense
pool of profits that were made by his
skillful manipulation. Mesers. Law
