at any moment IL saw fit. No one car
doubt the soundness of Lord Gran
ville's position, but just at that time
Russia did not cdre to argue the point.
She saw that two of the powers
interested in insisting that treaties
formed between nations should be held
inviolate, were in q death grapple-one
theg were not likely to quit-in order to
enforce an article of a treaty that
every statesman in Europe privately
admitted must sooner or later be abro-
gated.
At this stage of the game Count Bis
marck came forward and proposed q
settlement of the question. After re
ceiying the assurance of the English
Cabinet that it would assent to his plans,
Bismarck in November, 1870, addressed
a circular to Austria, Turkey, Italy and
Russia, requesting them to authorize
their representatives to assemble in
London alta conference of the powers
which had signed the treaty of Paris in
order to discuss the question arising
from the conduct of Russia in abrogat-
ing the Black Sea clause in that treaty.
The convention assembled in answer
to this invitation on the 18th of Janu-
AIRY, 1871. The only work of the con-
ference was to abrogate the
Black Sea art Gle of the treaty. but in
connection with that act "a special pro-
.tocol was signed, affirming it to be an
essential principle Of the law OF nations
that no State could release itself from
the engagements of q treaty unless with
the consent of the other contracting
powers"
Yet Notwithstanding the announce
ment of this doctrine to which Russia
was a party, the Gar is taking the same
course in relation to the seth article OF
the Berlin treaty that his predecessor
did in relation to the Black Sea clause
of the treaty of Paris. And even with
out consulting the other parties to The |
Berlin treaty, but of his own sweet
Yolition he violates that clause of the |
treaty relating to Batoum. This reck-
ess course of the cars may unite the
western powers of Europe against him,
which would be a force the great Bear
If the north, with all his boosted
strength, would not be able to with

WISE KNIGHTS.

The Nashville, Tennessee, Knights oi
Labor have hit upon a plan which
knocks the spots out of striking when
they have a grievance. A number OF
girls were discharged from one of the
knitting mills because they refused to
accept a reduction Of wages which
would have made them Veritable slaves I;
whereupon the knights went to work
and organized a cooperative knitting
mill, and put into it the discharged
girls giving them all they could earn
over a small percentage as interest on
the investment. The gi;ls are working
shorter hours than formerly and are
making fair wages.
The working people have it in their
power in most instances to protect
themselves against the oppression of
employers, and to make themselves
independent. They can do as the Nash
vile Knights have done, and
become their own employers, getting
whatever profits their labor may pro-
duce. Labor can provide for itself, and
be independent in most br inches of in
dustry, if it has but the wisdom and in
telligence to direct itself. Unfortuc-
stely for too many workingmen, they
are oftener bent on fighting the cspitaI-
SITS than disposed to help themselves. |

a DEMAGoGUE CAUGHT.

The other day a somewhat blind tele-
gram came along IN reference to some
exposure and unpleasantness in the
Senate, the name of Senator Blair, OF
New Hampshire. figuring in the matter.
The facts have since come along by
mail, and the showing is anything but
creditable to the New Hampshire SEN
atori indeed, his course was downright
disgraceful, and should have subjected
him to the public censure Of he Senate.
1t seems that a few days ago Blair
presented a report as If from the com
mittee on pensions, in which the Presi-
dents course on private pension bills
was denounced in severe and malignant
terms. Coming as il did the report
conveyed the impression that the Demo
Gratis on the committee, as well as the
Republicans, had joined in the black
guard attack on Cleveland, and a, con-
sequence there was some comment
on the matter. 1t turns out
now, however, that the report was
Blair's and his alone, only one other
member of the committee, and he a
Republican, having ever seen it. The
exposure came about in this way: The
Democrats were not disposed to remain
silent und the imputation of having
assented to an insulting report upon
the official acts of the President, hence
they prepared a statement DENYING
that the Blair screed had been assented
to by them, and asserting that no re-
port OF that or any other kind had been
authorized by the committee. In fact
they showed that Blair had dishonesty
attempted to give his own bit er and
partisan views an apparent endorse
ment by presenting them as the opinions
of the committee. Caught in tie act he
attempted to show that the vetoes were
considered by the committee on a Ger
tain day, but it was proven to his face
that one of the Democratic members
of the committee had gone to its room
on that day, and found no one there
Mr.. Blair's own clerk stating that there
had been no meeting and would be
none. On beng cross-e1amined, Blair
himself admitted that only one member
of the committee. a Republican. had
seen the report. No one of his fellow
partisAns had an excu.e for him. md
the Senate, as indeed 1t could not do
otherwise after such an exposure. tossed
back to Blair his unwarranted venom.
with instructions TO report hero after
only such things as the committee
authorized.
Since the incident Mr.. Blair has
been less previous" than formerly. and
has done a good deal OF moping in his
seat.

RUSSIA AND TREATIES.

The course OF Russia in attempting
to set aside the seth article IN the Ber-
lin treaty, which provides that Batoum
shall be free port, is only doing what
Russia did on former occasion. At
the close of the Crimean war, in which
England and France were arrayed
against Russia, the treaty of Paris was
forced upon Russia. The latter power
did not like that treat. Few nations
that are beaten in war seldom do like
the treaties proposed for their accept
ance, but a nation that has Just sus-
tanned war that has proven disastrous
to her, is usually compelled to accept
such terms of accommodation as the
conquerors shall name. 1t was so with
Russia at the close of the Crimean
war. She had TO accent the
terms of peace offered By Eng
land and France. Those terms were
couched in a document known now as
the treaty oil. Paris. One of the articles +
that treaty provided that The Black
Sea is neuTalized; its waters and its
ports thrown open to the mercantile
marine OF every nation, are formerly

its coasts or of any other power. and
the Sultan of Turkey and the Emperor
of Russia engage to establish or main

the shores of that sea-"
This was c.rcumscribing the ambition
OF Russia to bounds inconveniently mar.
row to a nation that for years had
planned TO extend the southern
borders Of her dominions to the shores
OF the Mediterranean Sea. In fact
1t eventually proved more than Russia

was blunt in manner and sudden in

she does now, aud in reply the
Gar said: Russia could not Be

ANOTHER TERROR.

And now comes another terror t.
trouble, alarm and distress poor
afflicted mOrtals. Some time ago {
man in Pennsylvania was bitten by {
drunken fellow; in few days the vic
tim showed signs of hydrophobia. and
in a little while he iost his senses. The
doctors are greatly puzzled by the case,
and seem powerless TO do anything to
restore the poor fellow to reason. or
even 70 relieve him of his sufferings,
which are intense.
But the fate of this unfortunate
Pennsylvania will be as nothing com
pared TO the terror which the incident

those States can rest sereneIy in the

ity, while in Pennsylvania and else

SEYMOUR.

Jack B. once made an unkind, but very true remark of our town:-"Seymour IS a one hoss town, I'll allow" said Jack, "but the trouble is Swan thinks he's the hoss." This is unfortunate, but it is true. Even our two village advertising sheets are con- stantly trucking in a sniveling way to the "Great I Am" The old fogy editor is only tolerated in their society for the free advertising he gives the boss of the 99 cent shop; while that other would-be literary solon is beginning to wallow about in, the simy puddle of his own self abasement. The whole thing is disgusting. Now the fact Is, there are hundreds of workers of every race. both male and female, in the mills of Seymour, who have more inborn chivalrous instincts in their makeup than this rude, rank thistle from the barren moors; and even of the usages of refined society, these shop girls and mechanics pos sess knowledge which this ungainly fel- low lacks. Indeed, in society where worth, not wealth, is the open sesame for entrance, Swan would knock in vain for admission, but would be relegated to the coachmans paradise-the stable.
 We have a ''scab' blacksmith here, named Robinson-one of the kind we mean when we press our thumb and fore finger over cur nose in the way a clothes pin works, and blow the air from us in long continued p h-e-w. He shoes @ a horse all around for $1. But such shoeing! What .this "botch" don't know about blacksmith ing would make big book; and as for his workman, he might be able to give some information of the domestic management of jail, from experience, but blacksmith ing is out of his line entirely. But the boss evidently believes in the bread-and water diet of Aposte Beecher dispensation, and for many of these ''scabs" its too good. It's such as they who make chainsland slav cry possible. Such weak-backed negation of humanity can only breed offspring whose scaly hearts go far to prove them descended from some remote frog ancestor, for that animal seems to enjoy himself hugely flop ping around in the puddle of his own exu dation. It is always safe to shun such people.

 The reception of the Y. M. O. A. last Tuesday was a very pleasing affair, and the fine entertainment provided was well enjoyed. It was without money and with out price, like the gifts of heaven, and is a promise of good things to come when true statesmanship will have public buildings and institutions provided for the public good instead of everything being run by spectators for profit making. The free show the next evening, by Rev. MT. Hall, with stereoptican views, was another treat in the same spirit, and the house was full.
