SOME GOOD COUNSEL.

The New London Day, whose editor is one
 of the Republican members of the next
 house, and is also the most prominent candi-
 date for the speakership, gives some very
 good advice to the Republican members of
 the legislature. It points out that they can
 be of great service to their party, and that as
 the legislature is Republican in both branch es the Republican party will be held to strict accountability for it's record. The Day very truly says that the Republican majority in the legislature ought to embody sufficient in- telligence and wisdom to transact all necessa- ry business within @ reasonable limit of time; to insist upon that strict economy in public expenditures which the people demand and are entitled to have in these times of business depression when the burdens of taxation rest heavily upon all classes of the community; to scan closely all proposed legislation and not burden the statute book with a mass of use less laws; to give heed to the reasonable de- mands that may be made in the interests of labor and thereby prove anew to the work ingmen that the Republican party is their true friend; to make only such appointments as will stand the test of public opinion-in short, to conduct the affairs of the State up- on strict business principles and in accord ance with the highest standard of political honor.
 The platform thus constructed by MT. lib bits is good one. It is not necessary that the Republicans in the legislature should be extensively partisan. but it is their right and duty to so conduct themselves that the Dem ocrats cannot point to bad work done by them and charge it to the Republican party. It IS well enough to remember that next year the Democrats will do all they can to get majority in the legislature in order to elect United States senator. The Republicans should work unitedly and tremendously, and make their record such that it will not aid the Democrats next year.

 M. de Brazza, the famous French explorer,
 has been recalled from the Congo. For those who know what this gentleman has done for that French colony, but do not know what French routine is, the recall will
 be great surprise. Here is man, through whose personal efforts France has acquired an important territory without the firing of 8 single gun, who has administered it perfectly for seven years and made it, so to speak, his own, who understands it as no one else dces
 and is the only man who could have perfect ed the conquest of it in the same manner. But such is the rage of the French for red
 tape and administration that M. de Brazza has been obliged to hand over the direction of affairs in the Congo to the commander of Gabon, man who has never set feot in the country which he is to govern, and whose headquarters are at Libreville, place which
 is three months march from the Congol
 This case is one more glaring illustration of the difference between the French method of making colonies and the English. What the former try to do with the aid of soldiers and functionaries of all kinds the latter do by
 means of missionaries merchants. In this
 case France had 8 man who, if neither mis- sionary nor merchant, was gallant and en-
 thusiastic adventurer the only one capable
 of making the colony and keeping it for France, but this seems to be 8 reason for re-
 calling him and handing his office over to some one who is likely to ruin the work already done. -.-zez-5-z-=
 NJ. Ernest Renan has just published
 new book, 'Le Pretre de Nemi." 8 social
 satire against the present institutions of
 France, in the form of philosophical dra-
 ma. The book is written in that style of
 his own that no living French prose-writer
 could even approach. There can be no hesitation in affirming that since Voltaire
 French prose has never been handled as it is by M. Renan, and whatever he may
 pretend to think of France, who honors
 him as the most ingenious of her critics,
 he knows too well the amount of his stake in her prosperity and glory. M. Renan seeks 8 quarrel with democracy, but in re- ality it is with human nature that he is quarreling. Under 8 Roman disguise the work is drama of contemporary life. The scene is laid at the foundation of Rome. Strabo relates that there stood on the bor
 der of the Lake of Nemi a Temple of Dia-
 na, for which the priest had to be quail
 fed by putting his predecessor to death 8 practice which bears resem mblance to the way in which leader in modern French
 politics comes into power. M. Renan sup poses the appearance of sage named An tistius, who abolishes this sanguinary rite and endeavors to diffuse religious and moral ideas of more elevated character; but this
 priest dies, being convinced that he has done more harm than good, which is not likely to encourage future reformers. How ever. those who understand French should not fail to read M. Renan's book and enjoy a great intellectual feast. MAX O'RELL.

to interfere with his duties," he says. In these days such men are not generally thought to be fit teachers of the young

these days such men a1e not generally thought to be fit teachers of the young. French Republicans have been much exer- cised recently by the liking for titles which prevails among the officers of the army. Up to the present the War office has not taken any steps to prevent young Heutenants, whose fathers happen to have held old titles of nobility, from calling themselves Counts or Barons and signing themselves as such in official and other documents, leaving their military rank in the background. This fashion, the Republicans assert, has only come in since the reappearance of the Orleans princes in the army, and has been adopted not only by youthful subalterns, but by vet Logerot, commanding the Eighth army corps, has, however, shown himself more autocratic than the War office, and in gen eral order lately issued forbids the use of noble titles in military correspondence.
 The decision of the Philadelphia court of common pleas in the telephone case which has been before it touches on some points of general interest. The Bell telephone com pany of Philadelphia refused the application of the Baltimore & Ohio telegraph company for ateIephene in it's main office on the ground that it was prohibited by terms of it's contract with the American Bell telephone company from furnishing instruments to be used for the transmission of telegrams to any telegraph company other than the Western Union. In deciding the suit brought by the Baltimore 6 Ohio company for a mandam- us requiring the Bell company to furnish the complainant with the desired facilities Judge Arnold holds that the telephone is 8 public necessity which no other human agency can supply; that when the use of patented ar ticle is thrown open to the public all are en- titled to have it on the same terms; that the rules which govern common carriers apply to the telephone company, and those rules pro- hibit any discrimination. The court decided that the contract between the Philadelphia telephone company and the American Bell telephone company was not material to this suit. It would only declare that the illegal portions of that contract cannot be enforced, because they are void and against public pol icy. The owner of patent may put it in public use or withhold it, as he chooses; but if he does offer it for public use then the manner of it's use may be controlled and reg ulated by State laws when the public welfare requires it. On the subject of charges the court declined to sSule, merely saying that whether it be annual rental or tariff of charges upon messages it must be the same for all
