Predictions of War i'm Europe.

Pail Mdu Gazette: An Englishman who
recently returned from Paris, where he
met several of the leaders of French So
cial Democrats, said that he found very
general, among the working classes es-
pecially, vague feeling that France was
within a short distance of a revolution.
The united efforts of the Bonapartists,
Monarchists, and Anarchists, it was be-
lieved, would result before long in gen.
eral upset. As for the workingmen them
selves, there was singular indifference to
the form of government. Another wide
spread feeling among the Partisan curriers'
was that war with Germany was immi-
nent; they did not exactly know how, but
they believed that France would attack
her former conqueror and be soundly
beaten. A curiously fatalistic feeling pre-
vailed among them, which could neither
be accounted for nor explained away.
Some alarming articles are Just now APP
pearing in the German press with regard
to the prospect of war with France; and
no one who reflects on the relations be-
tween the German press and the govern
ment will fail to recognize their import
ance. The worst is that which the Co
logne Gazette, one of the most influential
papers in Germany, published on the 9th
instant, in reply TO the well known
writer "Ignatius," of the Figaro.

The speakership and the People.

Columbus (Ga) Enquirer: The Atlanta
Constitution has grown very magnanimous,
and desires that everybody shall hands off
and let the Georgia Representatives vote
as they please on the question of who shall
be the next Speaker OF the House. "These
Congressman ought to be left free to act as
they think best, and so tar as we are con-
cerned, they shall, p" is the language of the
Constitution. This is brought out by
denial upon the part of Mr.. James r. Ran
dali, of Augusta, that he had, in any way,
attempted to influence the vote of Con-
gresham Reese in behalf of Representative
Randall for the Speakership. We merely
speak OF this to say that, as rule, Con-
gressmen do not heed the voice of the
people. They think that the Speakership
is a matter for them to settle, and that the
people do not know anything about it.
The only time when any gen.
has been applied was after the river
and harbor bill had been passed
and so many Congressman returned home
to defeat. Randall is an old and shrewd
manager He knows all the ins and outs
of Congress, and will go before that body
with more strong combinations made than
any other candidate. He is, therefore, all
the more dangerous. Combinations are
not what the people who have elected a
Democratic Congress want, but they count
in politics and among politicians. The
Democratic papers opposed to Randall
should impress upon their constituents
the Importance of letting their Congress
men know what action is expected of
them when they assemble in Washington
next month. The Democratic party can
not afford to have the important commit
tees of Congress, through Randall's infu-
ence, put. into the hands OF the protection
lists and monopoliSts.

Carlisle and His Record.


Little Rock Gazette: Unfortunately for
the Atlanta Constitution, which has labored
so long to prove the absurdity OF its new
position, no living man understands the
Ohio platform. Mr.. Randall understands
it in Pennsylvania to mean protection, and
Mr.. Carlisle construes it in Kentucky to
mean a tariff for revenue, and not protec-
ton. Upon another point the Constitution
is equally unfortunate. Mr.. Carlisle is not
on record as opposing any change in the
tariff legislation of the Forty-seventh Con-
gress. He led the opposition to that
measure in the last House, and urges now,
rs he did then, an equitable and material
reduction of duties; though, as he should
be, is opposed to any radical, sweeping
measure to which the business of the
country could not become adjusted with
out serious embarrassment. Mr.. Carlisle
is not doctrinaire, but holds practical
though most positive, views, known to the
country, and too clear for successful mis-
representation. The sectional allusion by
the Constitution is even more unfortunate
The time has arrived for obliterat-
ing sectional lines in selecting men for
public position. Surely Democrats should
leave the despicable work of Tapping the
"bloody shirt" to Republicans. But it APP
pears necessary to borrow that garment for
use in frightening Democrats from their
convictions, because it happens that Mr..
Carlisle's residence is on the south side of
the Ohio river, which separates Coving-
ton, KY, from Cincinnati, o. Out upon
such miserable pretense of argument,
made that Democracy may be coerced into
surrendering to the Republicans on the
chief question now dividing political par
ties! "For these reasons" says the At
lanta paper in conclusion, 1--WE determined
to say nothing more in opposition to Mr..
Randall's candidacy" And "these rea-
sons," based on false premises, are worth
less

DEAR SiR-Your kind favor of the 18th
instant reached me two or three days ago,
but this is my first opportunity to answer
it. In my opinion retreat from our
present position on tariff reform would be
disastrous. Ii we shall find ourselves un-
able to go forward we can at least stand
still and hold the ground already won,
which is far safer and more honorable
than to go backward. The election of Mr..
Randall, or any other gentleman enter
tanning his views, would be very properly
regarded by the country as an abandon
ment of the contest, and, as you say, it
would drive away from us thousands of
earnest men who care more for principles
than spoils. My own position on this sub
ject has been deliberately taken, and will
be consistently maintained. do not wish
to succeed in this or any other contest by
concealing any real sentiments or pur-
poses concerning any public question.
Thanking you sincerely for your express
sions of friendshipa and support, l am, very
truly yours, j. q. CARLISLE.

Mr.. CARLISLE ON TariG Reform.

Mr.. Carlisle has defined his position in
letter to Prof. A. L. Perry, OF Williams
College, written in reply to a note from
the latter, expressing a strong desire that
Mr.. Carlisle might be successful in his
candidacy ''on account of its obvious bear
ings on the question of free trade" and
his belief "that the election of Mr.. Ran
dali, under all the circumstances, would
separate from all hope of further co-opera-
ton with the Democratic party a large
body of earnest free-traders and independ-
entS." Following is Mr. Carlisle's letter

In reference to the Wisconsin,
Pittsville & Superior railway the
Milwaukee Sentinel has the following:
The Wisconsin, Pittsville & Super
Tor Railway will soon cease TO be of
paper existance and become thing of
reality. Beginning at Remington,
Wood County, on the Wisconsin
Valley Division of the St. Paul Rail
way, the new road is TO be constructed
and put in operation for distance of
twenty miles north during the present
season, which will carry it to point
beyond Pittsville. through which it
passes. This bit of information comes
from the most reliable source. Geo.
Hiles, of Dexterville, who is furnish
ing the money wherewith to build
the road. The venture is entirely a
private enc, the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul Company being in no way
interested, as had been reported, ex-
cept it be from the fact that con-
siderable business will be derived there
from. the new line to traverse one OF
the best lumber districts of Wisconsin.
None but 60-pound steel rail is to be
used on the new road, and the equip
ment is to be irst-class in every partic-
ular. There are now $50 men engag-
ed in construction work, and other
gangs are to be set to work soon. 1t
is the present intention to gradually
push the road north through the tim
Der country season by season as fast as
occasion may require, until eventually
the Wisconsin, Pittsville & Superior
shall become line Of far more than
ordinary importance among Wiscon-
sins railways"

The Oshkosh. Times has the follow
ing complimentary notice justly due
Hon. G. L. Park: Judge Park has
written a letter to D. L. Jones, of
Stevens Point, his former law partner,
stating that he will return to his home
at Stevens Point and that on the 18th
of the present month he will resign
his position as Judge. He has been
in Colorado for some time past for his
health, and has been under the treat
ment of several of the best physicians
in the state, but has concluded that
they can do nothing for him by way of
effecting a cure, and he now reconciles
himself to what he feels to be the
ineVitable-that he must lay down the
burden of life, and forever abandon all
worldly care.
Te a man who is by nature and
education SO well flied to enjoy all
that is worthy in this life it must be
mental burden to dwell upon what he
considers such an unwelcome truth.
To leave home and friend and dear.
old associations and peaceful surround
ings strikes even the dullest mind with
a certain amount Of regret and unde-
Unable fear; but how can the poignant
grief be measured in such mind and
heart so finely attuned as are those of
Judge Park?-a man who sees beau
ties in every phase and form of life; a
man who is the delight of every social
group-whether of young or old--a
man whose smiles would tighten a
household, whose frown would cause
pang Of regret. The quiet ease, the
social converse, the varied learning,
all are his, and no one ever sat in
his com pany without feeling disquieted
at his departure. Never boisteous,
never rude-always careful of the
feelings of others, surely the world
can i'll afford to lose such men. The
foundation for his present malady was
laid in the army. But if a sunshiny
heart should lend assistance in
warding off disease Judge Park would
still have long lease of life before
him. IF the heartfelt wishes of his
friends could lcngthen his days he
would for many years live to gladden.
