THE OOURTEsIEs OF TRAVEL.
1Erom the seut.mher Century

From the September Century !
1t is common to say that in losing
the old s~tage.coach. We have lost that
comfortable sociability which once made
travel so great q charm. Bat we have
lost something more. We have lost
that humane instinct which, in the olden
times, made all travellers c%onsiderate of
one another. Travel-trdUaH the de-
r,yation OF the word IS suggestive. 1t
Was work, and hard work, In the old
DAYS. and out of the common strain
and The cummOn hardship came II CO.
operative and fraternal spirit which
transformed its hardshlps in pleasura3le
memories. But the Pullman car IS a
refrigerator. In transporting fruis from
| California, the first condition is that
there shall be coldness, and then-:isola-
ton. The nectarines must not touch
each other. In like manner. as we
multiply the luxurics OF travel, we
multiply barriers between The travellers.
1t is not merely that there are parlor-
cars ; It Is that IN these, and in the ordi-
nary American railway carriage. also.
the first confederation comes. more and
more, to be personal comfort, and not
mutual consideration. The grudging
answer, the, reluctance to impart INFORM
alton, the almost brutal struggle for the
best, which increasingly disregards
weakness and age and woman-these
are things which ono sees now more
frequently and unpleasantly than OF old.
We talk OF the ga%rrulous and interroga-
tive American. But where is he Van
,shed as utterly as the Massasoit In
disus. An English gentleman. who
lately ~traversed the continent. said that
he had never travelled in q country in
which his fellow-travelers we're so re-
served.
1t is a mistake, il it is no more There
10 no one whose horizon may not be
widened it he will only avail hinself Of
the wholesome education Of the fellow
ships of travel. 1t Is easy 10 be too
much upon ones guard. All travellers
are not swindlers. and courtesy is not
necess arily familiarity. As it is, one
is reminded of that countryman OF ours
who, having crossed the Atlantic with
q roommate who, from the beginning
to the end OF the voyage. had not adj
dressed to him one word, parted from
him. saying airiiy: well, good-by |!

WANTS MORE THAN HUB

Senator Kellogg, who will now be
glad tn go to the lower house from q
Louisiana district, knows that he must
have the sinews of u campaign to win,
and turns, therefore, to that READY
all assessment OF the poor
devils who are employed in the service
of The United States. Hubbell was
coutent with two per cent. Malone
rose to five, Kellogg demands SIX. and
has. made his special clam upon that
hot-bed of corruption. the New Orleans
oustom-house, the place where Garfield
assisted in procuring rather peculiar
evidence by most extraordinary methods
in favor of his friend Hayes, aud whence
he went 10 Washington to sit judicially
upon the case which he had helped to
cook up. Kellogg will probably get
the money lie demands. In one respect
all these forced contributions from gov
eminent employees made to sustain the
grand old party have something : in
common with Irish skirmishing funds.
Tt.ey are secret. There IL never any
objection to showing now much goes in.
That side of the account is accurately
kept. But nobody ever does know
whore the money goes TO. There is no
responsibility to anybody, nor is there
any reason to suppose that men who
will resort to such methods to raise
funds OF this kind will hesitate to help
themselves out OF them.

WOMEN IN GERMANY.

Everywhere On our way here we saw
working beside men, the women
always doing the hardest part of the

baskets upon their backs into which
men shoveled compost. and rested upon
their shovels while the woman, etagge:-
under the terrible load, went long way
a dozen times an hour and herself
emptied her basket. The most remark
able sight l have seen lately was in
Holland. A woman, bent nearly to the
earth, walked the tow path, pulling by
means of a strap across her breast a
heavy. canal boat IN which sat two men
with folded rms. smoking. Women

HOW IT LOOKS.

The results which grew out of the
re.apportiOument and re-dIstrlctinS
for on the ninth census, ten
wears ago, are interesting in connec-
ton with the approaching congress
sioual election. The apportionmeni
of 1860 gave the house 243 members,
Of whom 1O8 were democrats Qn-
Guiding s liberals) and 1874 republi'
cans. and there was after the election
/ vacancy. The first congress elected
under the apportionment OF 1871 was
largely republican. anu was elected
in the Grani-Greeley campaign OF
1872. In the first otf-ye,r, following
the superintendent of 1870. the COM
plexion of the house was reversed,
and stood 1876 democrats G%ncluding 3
liberals). to 107 republicans. Al the
time this change occurred there were
no surface indications OF any great
change from 1872, or any agitation OF
popular sentiment, and IT. Was, per-
hsps, less expected than u like result
was IN 1872, when, hopeful of the ac-
cesston Of liberal republicans, the
democrats were %expectant of substan-
tial success. The election of this year
corresponds with that of 1874, being
the first off.year alter apporiionment.
Whether the result may TO any extent
be similar to 1874, can be ca'culated
only by q careful scrutiny OF the re-
suits of that event, the conditions
then existing n the political field, and
comparisons with conditions at the
present time.
In producing the result of 1874 three
elements united: l, the re-apportiOn-
ment and redistricting which spread
out the republican majori,ies so thin
@iy that in many disiricts il was easily
overcome; 2. the ''of.yesr." which al
WAYS shows laxiiy Of party restraint
and generally a light vote and 8, the
undoubted change of sentiment against
the republican party consequent on
the liberal revolt 1917, subsequent
ly manifested in the popular majority
for Tilden 10 1876. A comparison of
the forIy-second congress, under the
superintendent ef 1860, aud The forty
fourth congress-. under the apporiion-
ment of 1870, shows the number of
democrats and republicans from each
state as follows:
