War Runors.

An opinion relative to the probability
OF war between England and Russia in
the near future would not be worth much.
There doesn't appear to be any doubt that
at a notvery remote period the two nations
will appeal to arms to settle their differ
ences. War may be close at hand, but
there are no strong Indications that il is.
1t must be admitted that the report that
the Russians are sending troops to the
disputed territory, and their recent adj
vance to Zultikar pass, look suspicious,
but Russia may be able to offer eXplana-
tons which will prove to be satisfactory.
Russia is aware, of course, that the
present English Ministry is much more
likely to support the Ameer of Afghanis-
tan in any aggressive position that he may
be disposed TO take than was the Glad
stone Ministry, and as the Ameer lately
has been showing a disposition to push
forward his outposts, Russia, rs a matter
of precautiOn perhaps, has increased her
forces on the disputed frontier.
Zuldkar pass is in the disputed terri
tory, but at no time has Russia admitted
that she would submit the question of
giving up that pass to a commits
sion. In fact, she has said all
along that she intended to occupy the
pass. She has not as yet made any claim
for the rich valley OF the Hari river. and
probably does not mean to at present
Zulfkar pass is l35 miles northwest Of
Herat and Pendieh is about 1870 miles.
The number Of Russians at each place il
quite large, and they are well situated for
advancing on Herat if war should be de
termined upon.
The Russian press express surprise
at the extraordinary alarm manifested by
the London papers ON account OF the
Russian advance to Iulfikar pass, and
say that it has no reasonable foundation.
Not much confidence, however, is placed
in what Russian newspapers say. They
are controlled by the government, and
therefore say only what il is to the in
terest OF the government for them to say.
After all, IL may De that much OF the
alarm that has been manifested was skill
fully excited for speculative purposes.
Everything that looks like war disturbs
the markets and makes business for the
spectators.

Gen. 5. b, Buckner visited Gen. Grant at
Mt. McGregOr Wednesday. Gen. Buckner
was one OF the prominent Generals on the
Confederate side during the war. He and
Grant We're together in Mexico.
CTen. Buckner, while he refused to make
public any portion of the interview, carried
which Gen. Grant had written answers to his
various inquiries. One OF these is likely to
have historic value. After some conversation

The question of the constihtionality OF
the civil service law is being agitated by
some Of those who are opposed 10 it. They
say that they would like TO get a chance TO
test it before the highest judicial tribunal.
The Philadelphia Times says that sat least
one member of Arthurs Cabinet, who
helped to frame the rules now in operation,
doubted very much whether their opera
ton was not contrary to the constitution
Reasons accumulate for looking for a CON
test next winter over the law. Its advo-
Gates being opposed by two tactions-one
for its total repeal, another for Its mate
rial modification. Recent occurrences are
likely to bring the commissioners under
fire if half OF what is threatened is at

Notwithstanding all the buster it is not
probable that any attempt that win COM
mand respectful attention win be made
next winter 10 overthrow the civil service
law. Mr.. William Walter Phelps, few
months ago, IN an interview, seemed to
think that the politicians were more pow
ertul than the people. He was mistaken.
The politicians appear to have their way
until the people are aroused and then
their real strength is seen to be very lit
tie. They begin to sail with the current
as soon as they find that they cannot
stem it. The civil service law was enacted
in obedience TO the demands OF the people
not Of the politicians, and the people are
not yet ready to see itrepealed. The pol.
ticians who undertake to repeal it will
find an early political grave.
