II seems to us that the time has come TO

to our mind that he Is dangerous. and that
our duty requires us to warn the country
members accordingly. His colleagues from

nulre no warning. How Mr.. Franz came to
commit tho desperate act Of offending the
Honorable Devereaux on Thursday night Is

We do not desire to llnger over this blood

THE PERILs OF MONAROHs.

Juvenile simplicity which Is Inclined to To-
cate tho acme OF all earthly bliss In tho vicin-
lty OF royal or imperial palaces must have
received d considerable setback by tho late
attacks on certain crowned heads OF Europe.
Three attempts have been made on the life OF
the Gar OF Russia. two on thnt OF tho En-
peror of Germany two on that OF tho King
az Spain and ono on the life Of the King Of
Italy. The wond-be slayer5 OF the Gar be-
long to q widespread and powerful revolu-
tionary party, known as Nihilists, and the
three attempts In alarmingly quick success
sion would seem to Indicate that they are de-
termned to accomplish their deadly purpose
at all hazards The assaiIants of the En-
peror of Germany belong. also, to a powerful
organization, known as Socialsts-an asso-
citation In which even the great Bismarck
has found foo Of the most implncable
character. The revolutionlsts were also
at the bottom of the assaults on the
young king of Spain, and although he
may not be regarded ms a very formidable
opponent, his death would leave the way

political parties Of the country. The
death at this time Of the King of Italy

these manarchS Is ut the head OF homo
geneous nation, having common origin aud
language, which would seem to indicate
the entire absence OF sectional OF
race antagonisms In their internal
troubles. Contrasted with the state OF
harmony prevailing In the Austrian En-
pire, realm Of divided races and diversified
interests, the spectacle is significant. Tho

the long reign Of the Queen Of Great Britain
there have been no attempts on her life, save
those made by an imbecle mailman and n
half wtted boy, and notwithstanding the
burning questions now being agitated In
France the life Of Its presiding officer Is re-
gareled as perfectly secure. In Belgium and
Holland as we'll rs In other small kingdoms
and prinoIpalitles, the people appear to be Mt

aeen that 1t Ia only In countries where there
Is great suffering on the part of the people
