REPoRTER's rADGE.

An elegant badge has been made ex-
pressly as an evidence of Office, and also
as a souvenir of the favor shown to the
Fourth Estate by this invitation to assist
at the imperial coronation, The badge
is to be worn on the left breast by every
recOnized special correspondent, and
consists of a medal in silver, richly gilt,
about three inches in diameter. In the
center, on gold ground, rises in high
relief the imperial crown, in red enamel.
within a silver wreath of oak and laurel,
entwined above star of five points, the
whole surrounded by band of silver. on
which the word Correspondent" is ena-
meled in blue, in French and Russian,
coupled by two pens, also in silver The
whole is most artistically designed as a
worthy memantO of SO grand an event.

Bismark and the Reichstae.


The report that Prince Bismark intends
to effect radical change of the constitu-
ton of the German Empire by the elimi-
mating the Reicnstag from tin other
words to make the Imperial Government
consist of the Emperor and composing the
Empire appointed by the; Princes, without
any popular representation at all-should
be received with great caution No doubt
the irascible old Chancellor curses the
Reichstag very heartily when it rejects his
favorite schemes, as it has for some years
been in the habit of doing, and he probab-
" wishes also, when he fails time and =
gain in constructing an obedient maj ority,
he conld get rid of the whole trouble by
simply abolishing the popular assembly.
But from the wish to the actual attempt
is a long step, and very hazardous one
too. II is quite possible that sPrince Bis
mark has talked of the matter merely 20
use the threat of coup d'etdf as a new
devise to freightenehis opponents in the
Reichstag into compliance with his behests
the force of all other similar contrivances
the threat of resignation, for instance, be
ing exhausted.

THE EXCURSION.

The excursion under the management
of J. R. Hartman, of Davenport, to Peo-
ria Sunday, was success, there being five
good coach loads of excursionists. The
morning was damp and disagreeable, and
the prospects for good day were dubious
in the extreme. At one time the mana
ger determined to postpone the affair, and
after having spread the news to that effect
in Davenport, he changed his mind and
concluded to start the train, rain or shine.
The announcement that the excursion
would be postponed, deceived many, who
would otherwise have attended After
considerable delay the train left the depot
at 9.25, instead of 7:30 as advertised.
The good natured Sutliff, who doubles
the road between here and Peoria six days
a week, was captain" of the tram. John
Patton, who handled the iron horse,
