The deeply indebted state Of Russia is often re-

the demoralzed state Of Russian finance operates

Since Governor Hill visited Mr.. Tilden last week
some of his friends have taken pans TO mention
that tine two men have long been closely attached
and that the young Governor is an admlrng dis
clple of the political methods of the venerable
statesman About week before the VISIT the
Governor denied that there was any truth IN re-
port that he would accept Federal Office. IT is
evident that tho Governor does not mean to be

AS this is the day of small things for France
in the diplomatic line, it is likely that there viii
be great rejoicing in Paris because the Republic
has interfered in the Bosphore Eggpt'en affair
with some degree of success. What the terms
of settlement are is not stated; but that does
not matter much. The mere fact that settle
ment has been effected is important for 1t
practically dsposes of the suggestion that
France aud Russia have resolved upon an ALL
ance, and that France had begun to carry out
her part by Fostering England And when the
report reaches Paris that the withdrawal OF the
American troops from Panama was due to the
protest of the French Consul, the giddy capital
will probably feel an additional thrill of graft
fed vanity; but it does not take much to tickle
a Partisan.

OF his party. No doubt he will perform the duties
OF bis Office we'll enough but as politician he has
bad record" From this it follows that the Presi-
dent was well aware of Pilsbury's record, add

as "a political outthroat" is not half so bad as his
record as Copperhead denouncng the martyred
President as having been consigned to infamy."

Public opinion has even punctured the
rhinoccros hide of Carter Harrison, and he
takes the usual childish course of peo-
pie in his position by threatening libel
suits on persons who further reflect his char
acter. The course of events in Chicago would seem
to show pretty general reflection on Carter. Four
years ago he was elected Mayor by majority of
$1,000. Two years later, with the machinery in
his own hands, he made out for hmsef 10, 223 ma
iorry. Last fall running for Governor, he carried
the city by 1866 on his own count Mackin and
Gallagher. two of his best workers, were sentenced
to the Ponitentiary for frauds in that election, but
they got out on bail in time TO BIO hand for the
recent election. whom Carter returned himself for
Mayor by majority of about 800. In addition to
the barcfaced frauds ballot-box containing $50
Republican votes aud 266 for Harrison was stolen.
After such verdict the wonder is that even Carter
believes himself to have enough character TO libel.
