Italy or Russia2

The report is that Mr.. Kelley has de-
clined the Italian mission and that he is
now an applicant for the Russian mission.
The report may or may not be well
founded, but it IS probable that if he does
not 60 to Rome he will not 90 to St.
Petersburg. 1t has been remarked that
Mr.. Kelley was very fortunate in getting
mission when he only applied for first
class consuship, but he would be re-
garded as a very lucky man if he should
finally get so prominent position as that of
Minister Of Russia.
Mr.. Kelley may be a very able man,
but there is some question whether he is
a very discreet man, and discretion would
seem to be one of the necessary charac-
teristics Of diplomatst. His speech at
the dinner given HIM by his friends when
he left Richmond has been commented on
by journals very friendly to the adminis-
tration in a way that shows that there are
grave doubts whether he is exactly fitted
for a diplomatic career. 1t is not always
wise to utter all that is in ones mind. A
diplomatist is not expected to say
all he thinks. At the din
ner in question Mr.. Kelley appears to
have spoken his mind rather freely. 1t
may be that his free way Of talking has
arrested the attention Of the Secretary of
State, and suggested to him the advisa-
bility of waiting little before issuing a
commission to Mr.. Kelley.
If MIR. Kelley isn't sent to Italy it is
difficult to see why he should be sent to
Russia. In the event of war between
England and Russia the duties of our
ministers to both of those nations will be
Of a character that will require excellent
judgment to discharge them satisfactorily
Mr.. Kelley may have fine ability, but it
must be admitted that doubts have been
expressed respecting his judgment.

The Receivership Contest.

Atlanta Is greatly stirred up by the
Fink and Dorsey contest for the receiv-
ership Of the Georgia division of the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad.
The meeting Of the business men of that
town yesterday shows that there is con-
siderable indignation among those inter-
ested in having the contest settled at the
prospect of a long and ruinous litigation.
There appears TO have been but one
sentiment at the meeting, and that was
that MI. Dorsey ought to back out OF the
contest as gracefully as he can, and allow
Mr.. Fink to take charge of the whole
road, in order that he may get its affairs
in a satisfactory condition as soon as pos
sible.
The sense of the Atlanta meeting is
doubtless the sense of a majority Of the
people OF the State. The East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia road has done a
great deal TO build up certain portions of
the State, and if properly managed will do
a great deal more. 1t would be a shame
10 wreck it, and the chances are that it
will be wrecked if the present contest be-
tween the hostile receivers is continued.
OF course Mr.. Dorsey doesn't like TO be
beaten, but, apparently, he is neither
sustained by justice nor public sentiment.
1t may be that he does not see his way
clear to abandon the contest without a
decision from the court TO which he
looks TO sustain him, and the proceedings
of the Atlanta meeting seem to indicate
that he is not expected to abandon his po-
sition until he can do so under a decision
of the court. Therefore, in theresolutions
adopted at the meeting, trial Of the is
sues pending between the contesting re-
ceiyers at once was advised.
Everybody seems 10 have the utmost
confidence in MIR. Fink's honesty, ability
/ and experience. In his hands the road
may soon be relieved of its most pressing
difficulties, and may eventually be placed
/ upon prosperous basis. If Mr.. Dorsey
/ should be sustained no one can predict
with any degree of certainty what the
/ fate of the road will be- 1t seems that the
1 amount Of the claim, which is the basis of
/ Mr. Dorsey's appointment as receiver. is
\ very small. In fact, it is so small, if re-
/ ports are TO be relied upon. that
the suspicion is suggested that the pur-
/ pose is not 80 much TO collect it as 10
achieve some other object not wholly ap-
/ parent.
IT seems that the attorneys for MIR. Dor
/ sey think that the Atlanta meeting will
! have the effect Of intensifying the feeling
/ Of hostility between the two receivers,
but it is not improbable that they are mis-
taken. II will have the effect. doubtless,
| Of Fastening settlement Of the trouble.
The courts will be inclined to save the
road, and may strain a point in order to
/ do that.

The Spanish government is greatly
troubled by the spread Of republican SEN
timents throughout Spain. Republican
literature, which seeks to excite the peo-
pie against all dynastic rulership. by
pointing to the greater freedom and higher
average of prosperity enjoyed by the
French, the Swiss, and, above all, by the
Americans, is scattered abroad with lib
eral hand. Every public calamity is util-
lied to point the moral that the people
would be abundantly able to relieve their
own distress if it were not for the sums
wrung from them in taxes to support the
grandeur of royalty. The royal bounty
given TO the sufferers by the late earth
quakes is spoken of as but 1.-THE of what
belonged to the people any way, and the
pending epidemic of cholera is referred to
rs quite avoidable scourge if the people
had not been too far impoverished by
kingly eXactions to establish proper sani-
tary precautions. 1t is believed that this
literature emanates chiefly from London.

THERE are some who think that temper
ancc people should walk very gingerly
lest they tread on some poor rumseller's
toes. Are you sure, they have right
to interfere with the liquor trafficT We
answer: "The right of man to drink
liquor under his own roof may be undis-
puted; at any rate Prohibition does not
touch that right. Prohibition only says,
when you throw open that door and in
vite the passer-by to drink, and when 200
years of experience proves that by so do
ing you double my taxes and make it
dangerous for my child to tread on those
streets, have right to say whether you
shall open the door or not. don't care
whether you sell poisson or food, I don't
care whether you sell alcohol or roast beef
it does not matter; all know is that if you
undertake to sell something that doubles
my taxes, and that makes my passage
through the streets more dangerous, you
at once invest me with the right to inter-
fcre and if any grog- seller can stand
here and show, in the face of an intelli-
gent people. that he has the right, under
an idea of Democratic government, to
fitch from my pocket and make my pas
sage through the streets unsafe, in order
that he may coin other mems sins into
his gold, let him try it."-Catholic Tenn

TAKING q strip of country running
northwest and southeast, twenty miles
wide and seventy miles long, with Roch-
ester as center, and you embrace dis
trict having the most productive soil; the
greatest number of acres under cultiva-
ton, proportioned to the area; the purest
water; the largest average yield of cereals
for term of years; the most nutritious

people, as evidences of the fact of its
having one third more horses, cattle, and
sheep than any similar section of the

triflc over one-half the general average
of the state; by having the greatest num-
Der of children in public schools, in pro-

fewest deaths in proportion to population.
