FTROPES NEW TENINT.

1t is now plain that the conditions of the
Egyptian settlement have been determined by
SIX rather than two Great Powers. Although
France was the first to demand the deposition
of the Khedve and Great Britain was close
behind her, the preliminary remOnstrance
presented by the German Government has been
taken up and sustained by the Cabinets
of st. Petersburg, Vienna and Rome. Founda-
tons have been laid for international action
in behalf of the bondhOlders of the various
States, and the succession to the throne Is a
dvnastic change which has required the con-
currence Of the European Governments. AS
matters now stand the Sultan is the Sow
ereign, and Tewfik Pacha Is his Viceroy. In
future, whoever may be Sovereign or VlcerOy,
Europe will have as troublesome a tenant at
Cairo as it already has at COnStantnople
That tenant may have an indefinite lease of
power and be liable to the penalties of co.
ercion and ejectment, but he will probably get
on toIerably well. Europe is an easy-goIng
landlord. 1t does not often know its own
mind. and even when it does, it is seldom in
humOr TO enforce its WILL
It is little enough that the moral force Of
Europe can accomplish in the East, if there
be no physical pressure behind it. This was
shown at the COnstantinople conference two
years ago. The representatives of the Great
Powers presented their plan for the pacifica-
ton of the Balkan peninsula. and the Pachas
rejected it without attempting to conceal their
contempt One point was yielded after an
other, and the diplomatist showed 80 many
signs Of weakness and vacillatiOn that Bis
marck instructed his representative to remind
them that any further concessions would be
beneath the dignity Of Europe. When the de-
mands had been reduced to the minimum the
utimatum was set aside by the Turkish
Grand Council. They knew that only one of
the Powers was prepared to use force, that
the others wOuld remain passive spectators if
the Porte absolutely refused TO take any adj
vice, and that Great Britain would not be
likely to stand by and see the Ottoman En-
pire reformed ont Of existence. If England
had not withheld her signature from the Ber-
lin Memorandum, but had sanctioned the
policy of coercion, and if, subsequently, she
had sent her feet to Constantinople To CO.

THE MINE CANPAIGN.

The Maine Republicans have been in the
habit of carrying Maine, and we should judge
from the tone of yesterdays convention at
Bangor that they propose to resume that most
excellent custom. The spectacle of Dem
ocrat in the Governors chair in that sturdy
Republican State, placed there by Republicans
simply to escape the greater reprOach of a
Greenback Governor, is not a pleasing one /;
and it is not surprising that there has been II
grand rally of the old party, with the one
determination that the State shall be re-
deemed. This great convention of more than
1000 delegates-the largest ever seen in the
State, it is said-will deserve to be remem-
bered not only as striking evidence of the
new vitality of the Republican party, but
for the high ground it has taken upon
every public question. and more especially
upon those questions which are sure to
be the pOivotal points in the Maine cam
paign. The convention necessarily responded
to the sentiment Of the country 10y making
the struggle ut Washington the first feature
of its platform. On this point its declarations
were the uncOmprOmising utterances OF Re
pubhcans everywhere. 1t applauded the
President, pledged faithful support to the ylg-
liant minority in Congress, and Tebuked with
proper severity the course of the Democratic
Congress.
This is the chief issue of the hour. And
vet in Maine the political situation is peculiar.
The long succession of Republican victories
in that State was interrupted last year by the
sudden upheayal Of new and nOndescript
party, made up OF Greenbackers, Greenback
Democrats Labor RefoTmers, and all the dis
coutcuted class in politics The Republic
cans made their campaign on the platform
of honest money, and failed to get a
majority of the votes cast, though they did
get plurality. Now to redeem the State they
must make the campaign again on the issue
of honest money, unless the course of events
at Washington has completely absorbed pub
lie attention. The platform is ready and is
good sound one. 1t declares an irredeemable
paper currency to be the worst that can af-
q iict a nation" and denOmces Congressional
tinkerug with the finances now that resump-
ton is restoring public confidence.
1t is this very fact Of resumption which viii
give the result in Name its greatest interest.
The September election will be the first gen
eral election that has been held since the re-
sumption of specie payments, and it will be
held III a State in which the Greenback party
has had its most striking recent success. The
Republican party has met the issue bravely /;
and with the tremendous fact of resumption
at its back, the result ought not to be doubt

there would have been no war and no San
Stefano.
In the present crisis England has mani
tested the same unwillingness to resort TO CO.
ercive measures. When the Khedive repu-
dated his engagements with the western
Powers and turned the Reform Ministry out
of office, she expressed her sense of annoy
ance and regret, but was not disposed to re-
sent the indignity. The British theory mas
been that Egypt is an integral part OF tine
Turkish realm, and that neither the Sultan
nor his vassal, Ismail, should be subjected 10
physical pressure Advice might be rendered
to an unlimited extent, but neither Sovereign
nor Viceroy should be compelled to do what
he WAS unwilling to do. From this attitude
of passive non-intervention England has been
dragged by the zeal of Waddington and the
cunning of Bismarck. In conjunction WIN
the other Powers she has undertaken to COM
pei both the Sultan aud the Khedive TO pay
the bondholders and to put an end to mlsgoV-
eminent in benlghted land. She viz
tuaIly pledged herself to send her lronclads
to Port SAID and her Mediterranean garrlsons
to Alexandria and Cairo, if the Khedive offered
resistance to the will of Europe. She could not
suffer either France or Germany to take pos
session of the Isthmus and to command the
route to India. If Tewtik, as well as tsmall
l., be bent upon following his own
caprices in Egyptian administration or finance,
which of the Powers will serve the ejectment
papers upon him = England may not be anx-
ious TO do it herself, but she cannot afford to
have any of her associates do it for her.
