is the southeInmost province of Belgium, Dut
since the Congress of Vienna has been de-
pendency of the Netherlands. Napoleon Ill.
attempted to purchase it in 1867 conducting Sc
cret negotiations with King Wilhelm llI.,which
would have resutedin an agreement ii Bis
marck had not entered the lists and threatened
to oppose the French scheme of aggression by
force of arms. War was averted by European
conference which decided that Luxembourg
should remain with the House OF Nassau
Orange and form n neutral state. The present
King of the Netherlands is also Grand Duke
of Luxembourg and if the Prince of Orange had
lived he would have inherited both the King
dom and the Duchy. The Princess Wilhclmine
NAV become Queen of the Netherlands, but she
cannot inherit the other title, since the Salic law
prevails in Luxembourg. The General Council
will have to name a male successor to the King
as Grand Duke ofLuxemburg, and the hercdi-
tarv Prince of Nassau seems TO be the preferred
candidate. Prince Bismarck has long been
watching the chances of the Dutch succession
and will not be an Indifferent spectator when
the General Congress of the Netherlands
holds its session. He has already given notice
TO the Powers that the succession is not
European question and that Germany alone
has the right to NEEDLE in the affairs of HOl-
land

POLITICAL NOTES.

Many Democratic leaders still offering the prayer
of faith that Mr. Tlden may be nominated by acclama-
ton and order that faith not be dead for lack Of
with headquarters at Washington for the systematic
manufacture Of spontanelty.
Some notice is taken OF the fact that the President OF the
Hackensack Republican Club resigned his position be-
cause he couldn't support Blaine. OF course not. He

says that on many accounts ho might he compared with
Gambctta and that he is surrounded by friends de-
voted and enthusiasts The election OF Mr.. Blaine. II

Republican party and the Nation VIII be greatly hOnored
in having Mr. Blame as It's President.

LYMAN, LOGAN IND the LJ7ERATL

LYMAN, LOG1N IND THE Li7ERATL
We have not yet heard the Hon. Theodore
Lyman's reply to Names demand for his author
ity in stating that Mr.. Blaine's reputation in
the State OF his adoption is that of man accus-
toned to the use of unwaTantod political
methods. And while we are patiently expecting
it at the telephone and waiting for his cultured
and classic Hullo," we be- to cal his attention
to the objections which he urges against the
candidate for the Vice Presidency.
General Logan he admits to be "a brave,
- frank and honest man, but illitcrate, narrow
"and prciudced," and therefore not fitted to
be the possible successor to the PRESIDENT
II is with "a thousand regrets that We continue
to present the name Of a man who does not
come up TO the high standard Of the gentleman
from Massachusetts, and il il isneycr too late to
mend we may possibly call another convention
and nominate a higher order of scholarship,
or rather a combination which shall unite more
virtue with more culture. For Mr. Theodore
Lyman. Mr. Blaine is great enough hut not good
enough: while Mr.. Logan is good but not great.
Let us see.
General Logan, born in this country OF full
Irish parcntage, is the son of physician cdu-
bravely through college with what help a hard
working doctor in a pioneer country could give
his several sons; was graduated hOnorably,
studied law awhile with his uncle anG then was
graduated from the regular law-school. Per-
haps his English may sometimes betray traces
of the pioneer habits of third of century ago
i'm Southern Illinois. He speaks the French and
Spanish languages, is an enthusiast in Shake
speare, of which ne can repeat whole plays by
heart. He has been known among his brother
Senators TO correct Harvard graduate in Latin
pronunciation and a Williams graduate in
Shakespearean quotation, and his familiar ac-
duaintance with modern tongues is reported to
have stood in the breach where other Senators
faltered and fell.
VIII Mr.. Theodore Lyman kindly inform us
at what college il is requisite that man should
be graduated in order not to be illiterate"
And if the American Eagle, in search of another
candidate sufficiently literate to satisfy the re-
quirements OF Mr.. Theodore Lyman, should
turn his beak in that direction, would the
honorable gentleman be wiling to raise his coy
and blushing face long enough to tell us how
many languages he speaks himselfi

PEACE WITH HONOR,

Hardly week passes without some fresh in
suit to the American flag in Cuban waters.
Yesterdays TRIBUNE contained a brief account
of one of these outragcs. The captain of the
schoOnerA. V. DriskO returningto Philadelphia,
reports that while he was entering the harbor
of Cardenas Spanish gunboat fired upon his
vessel. The attack was made without warning
and without provocation or reason The cap
tain's account of the outrage il confirmed by a
passenger on another American vessel, who wit
messed the incident and testics that tho firing
was sudden and unexpected and the attack
wholly unwarrantablo. Similar Outragcs arc

SnLrH " nEED ONCE MORE.

When last heard from Smith NJ. Weed was
sitting in a Baltimore hotel sobbng as if his
heart would break and tearing out his hair as If
he yeaned to be bald-headed. 1t was late III
the autumn of 1876 and the occasion of his
anguish was the failure of his engaging Re-
form scheme to secure the electoral vote OF
South Carolina for Mr. Tilden. He went to
South Carolina on purpose to see about its
electoral vote, and after looking the ground all
over he reported to Gramcrcy Park that that
State had gone for Hayes, but that it could be
bought I'D and transferred to the Iildenandrc-
form column for $4,000. To tins piece "i
patriotic information Weed coupled the request
that the money should be sent to him at Ball-
more in three packages of grcenbackS, one CON
tanning 500. 900, one $4,000, and one So,OO0.
and. so advising. sustained and soothcd by the
proud consciousness of duty done, he turned his
back on South Carolina and checked his carpet
bag for Baltimore. But, alas FOR this ardent
lover of his Varty and Of the principles oi
Thomas Jefferson, while he tarried anXiously IN
the Monumental City with sharprncd pencil IN
hand, ready at Il moments notice to receipt Tor
three packages of grccnbacl,s. the South Caro-
lima Returning Board decided for Hayes.
From 1876 until last Wednesday nothing
was heard Of smith w. Weed. What he bad
been doing in the interim is not known, but
there is IN impression abroad that he continued
to remain in Baltimore. and that regularly three
times a day, all the ycarsround, he has gone INTO
the express offices OF the city with the question:
"Sccu anything Of three money packages, con-
tanning respectively $4,000, $4,000 and

Ocean steamship racing is apparently awak-
ening as much interest among sporting men as
the old-tmc contests on the Mississippi River.
Fifty thousand dollars is said to have changed
hands on the result of the latest race from
Queenstown to Sandy Hook, in which three
steamships took part. 1t is to be hoped that
the rage to make quick time will not lead the
companies to neglect in any way the safety OF
the passengers. 1t is probable, however, that
the time is not far distant when a week will be
thought sufficient time in which to cross the
ocean, The increasing commercial intercourse
between this country and Europe has quick
ened the demand for saving of time. Al
ready the merchants are proiitIng by these fleet
steamships, which enable them to take advan-
tage of rapid turns in the market. The Post
Office authorities are also interested parties.
