The Message.

President Arthur's Message will commend
itself to the country as an excellent state
paper in both form and substance. Its style
is dignified and polite, and its tone thor
oughly commendable. All topics of Nation
al interest are touched upon, and those OF
great Importance receive ample attention.
The President has but few recommendations
to make, but the suggestions he does offer
are explicit and well considered.
The situation of the country and the con-
dition of its affairs as set forth in the Mes
sage are gratifying in high degree. The
Nation is prospering beyond expectation,
steadily gaining in knowledge, and comfort
and wealth; and the outlook for it is of the
fairest. The statement of our condition
made by the chief executive is one in which
we have every right to take pride as Ameri-
cans, and the suggestions as to betterment
of our already fine estate will generally re-
ceiye the cordial approval of the people if
not the active aid of Congress Some of the
recommendations may call forth adverse
criticism, but these will be profitable in pro-
voking full and intelligent discussion. The
paper, as a whole, is highly creditable to the
President, and will prove satisfactory to the
cxuptrv

AS long as the United States retains the

FRENCH soldiers, the American officers at
the Limoges Autumn maneuvres report, are
lighter than Americans and look less power
full; but they carry weight more easily, strag-
gle less, and swing along at a more rapid
pace, with an easier step. The chief fault
of the open order advance now In vogue
abroad, with a fringe of skirmishers mile
to the front, as observed by our officers, is
that soldiers begin firing at each other while
the main lines are mile and half apart
and groups of skirmishers nearly a mile.
The Henry Martini rife carried by the
Turks at Pleyna did execution at this dis
tance on dense bodies of men; but
such cases are likely to be rare,
and the risk in future battles is
that all men will fire away their ammuni-
tion too early in the fight. French light ar
tillery, whose old tradition is close fighting,
now makes 1000 yards its closest distance.
The change points to an alteration in the
method of attack and defence which our
own militia is slow to learn. As General
Dabny Fl. Maury, of Virginia, points out in
recent letter, only one regiment at York
town, the Massachusetts Ninth, drilled as
skirmishers, or appeared to have got beyond
the old, useless double line formation.

IT is thought that at the coming session
of the Canadian Parliament, the promoters

gaining strength gradually ever since.

PRINCE BIsslARcK's bold statement in the
course of debate in the German imperial
Reichstag of the peculiar official tenure OF
his position shows clearly that representa-
tive government has really no existence in
the Empire. Bismarck declares openly that
he represents the Emperor alone, and is not
subject to removal by the popular majority.
This is duplication of autocracy which
makes the German government as despotie
and irresponsible as that of Russia.

able Americans who visit the Empire the con-

Our intercourse with Spain has been frierd-
". An agreement concluded in February last
fixes a term for the labors of the Spanish and
American claims commission. The Spanish
government has been requested to pay the late
awards of that commission, and will, it is be-
lieved, accede to the request as promptly and
courteousy as on former occasions. By recent
legislation onerous fines have been imposed
upon American shipping in Spanish and colo
NAL ports for slight Irregularities in manitests.
One case of hardship is especially worthy OF
attention. The bark Masonic, bound for Japan,
entered Manila in distress and is there soaght

proved unavailing, it is expected that the

1t was the unanimous opinion that
prompt and vigorous measures should
be taken to bring the outlaws to Just

their object.

a cat of the Maltese variety which has

while crossing the yard, it was sun
struck and fell over, lying in the sun
some time before it was discovered.
Mrs. NJ. brought the animal, which is

could walk it crept to the refrigerator,

it wanted, Mrs. M. opened the door of

the animal leaPed in and nestled against

some moments and then jumped out
again. Two or three times in the after
noon it repeated the performance, and
