The nu.slan CoronatIon.

With pomp and solemn impressiveness
of ceremonial which this generation has
never seen equalled, Alexander III. was on
Sunday crowned Gar of all the Russias
Either through the most rigorous military
and police regulations or because the Nihilists
chose to give the Emperor one more chance
to lift some of the burdens from his people
there was no disturbance and no ATTEMPT at
violence during theday. Whether His Males
ty will redeem his solemn and thrice-repeated
promise to protect and cover" his people re-
mains to be seen. The event of the corona
ton had been looked forward to as the occa
sion OF possible announcement of a consti-
tutional government, or at least, for prom.
Use of administrative reforms. But no such
announcement or promise came. On the con.
trary the people were plainly told that affairs
must go on as in the past. The splendor of
the coronation festivities and the fleeing en-.
thusiasm of the assembled multitudes cannot
hide the fact that if this resolution is ad.
hered to, not only will the life of the Gar be
in continual danger, but what is of much
more importance, the security, peace, and
comfort Of the Russian people will be ex.
posed to constant peril, and their natural de-
velopment and progress will be checked.
The empire is to great extent isolated from
the rest of the world, the sole remaining
home among civilized nations of absolute
government in which the voice of the people
has no expression and their will no force.
Yet this isolation does not protect its people
from the influence of those ideas of right
and liberty which prevail throughout the civ
iliEed world. In blind way, and by des.

The One Man who Can Win.

lfrom tue Boston herald.l
There is one man the Republican party can
elect in 1854, and it is doubtful if there is
second. His name is George F. Edmunds,
senator from Vermont, and now virtually
vice president of the United States. Some
of the most astute of the Republican politi-
clans began to realize that Edmunds is their
only hope. They do not want him-he is one
of the last men they would select-but they
see that it must be he or q Democrat. Ed
munds has great elements of strength He
is clean, and has never forfeited the respect
of honest men. He would receive the whole
independent vote. He has never been es-
pecially offensive to the stalwart wing, being
in some sense stalwart himself. He could
unite the party. He could carry New York.
No other candidate can compare with him for
availability. Even his location, in small
New England state, ordinarily an element of
weakness, is offset by his strength in New
York, for a candidate must carry that state to
be elected. Should Edmunds be nominated,
the Democrats have no man who could sue
cessfully oppose him. His record is of the
highest character for ability and integrity.
