THE British public is easily pleased.
They gulp down a dispatch one day tell
ing them that representative of the
Sultan has signed the agreement with
Lord Dufferin concerning the landing
and disposition of Turkish troops in
Egypt. The next day comes chilling
frost in the form of an explanatory dis
patch from Constantinople that the afore-
said agreement has been informally
SigncdW We suppose this means that it
has been not signed exactly, but yet
"kind-of" "sort-of" signed. Perhaps a
eunuch of the Sultan's harem signed it,
or pc haps Said Pasha said pshawl and
gave the Englishman his signature to
note to the Sultan urging the latter to sign
when ready. That proclamation against
Arabi as a rebel is probably a figment of
the weak brain of some overworked Lon
don correspondent. 1t is very unlikely
that any such document has been pro-
mulgated by the Sultan. Turkey appears
to be as Indifferent to the wishes of Eng
land as England is to the wishes of all
other European powers. If Turkey can
safely defy England, and England can
dictate to all Europe, the Sultan is
pretty big factor in European politics.

In 1869, when the fifteenth amendment to the
national Constitution pending, and after the
Democratic members of the Indiana legislature
had bolted in order to break quorum and pre-
vent its adoption, the following dispatch was sent
from Washington: 1t is the highest right of the
people to vote upon every proposition TO change
their Constitution or to revolutionize their do
nestle policy. Il. A. Hendricks, W. +. Niblack,
william S. Holman, NJ. C. Kerr" These were the
Democratic bosses ofthat day. The favOrite DEM
ocratic argument at that time against the fifteenth
amendment was that II had never been submitted
to the people, aud such submission was demanded
as their highest right" Now it suits the Democ-
racy to take precisely opposite ground in regard
