Nor long ago the German army celebrated
with great noise the completion OF the last
OF the 100000 repeating rifies, and this was
followed by the announcement that France
had been making improvements in the same
direction. Bouianger loomed up as the
Bismarck OF France, who has been secretly
pushing the manufacture of repeating arms
with such rapidity, that by this time &C, 900 of
them are In the hands of French soldiers.
Germany, anxious to avoid war, takes pains
to let the outside world know her perfect
state of preparation for it. while France Keeps
Its preparations quiet, until now that Ger
many makes its flourish she Is compelled 10
show that she too is ready. Austria il arm.
ing her troops with a magazine rifle, and
Switzerland and Sweden have both adopted
arms that fire with great rapidity and accu-
racy, while the stubborn resistance OF the
Chinese iu the late war with France,
may be attributed to the use of an American
repeating rifle. Meanwhile we can afford tc
wait while, until foreign nations have de.
termined by costly experiment what is the
pest design for these weapons, and then we
can follow with something better.

After Smith.

Mayor Smith, of Philadelphia, is being
Investigated by councils. His offense is
Z having received license fees and failed
to pay them over as soon as received, as re-
quired by the ordinance. He has lately
paid the whole amount he collected, upon
the demand of the city controller, but that
Oficer finds that the books in which the
payments were entered were got up for the
occasion after he made his demand, and he
asks the mayor to exhibit his bank book
showing when and where the deposit of
these license fees was made. This seems
to be rather searching demand, but
the city solicitor says it is proper one.
The mayor refuses to comply with it.
The mayor Is supposed to have been using
the city's money and the councils propose
to prosecute him for embezzlement, If they
hnd this to be the fact. That is very well
doubtless the mayor had no right tc
use the city's money. He should have
paid 1t over as soon as he received it
But there has been great change in the

AT the great German universities the
students are treated like men and allowed to
govern their own time but the system has
long been an established failure and the effort
of Professor Schneider to control the students
OF Heideiburg may be regarded as the hrst
move towards the abandonment of the
ancient custom Students are not required
to attend lectures but merely to secure the
signature OF the professor in their note books
at the beginning and end of the course and
the result is that lectures are delivered to
nearly empty benches There is probably
some truth In the story Of the man who
visited his son at the university and took a

The Terror OF II.

Charleston was very badly scared by that
earthquake, though very badly hurt as
well. Her people had abundant cause for
alarm still after the occasion is over and
every thing is again serene, they will doubt
less feel that they were unduly terrified.
The list of killed and wounded does not
foot up high enough to have shown that
the population of the town should have
been paralyzed for so many hours as they
were. No doubt any other city would have
made like exhibit. The suddenness and
the unusual nature of the shock had
everything to do with its great effect upon
the sufferers. When they get used to earth
quakes they will show more nerve; and
there is no telling whether they will moi
have plenty of chance in the future
to acquire it.

The Active General.

1t is said that Mayor Grace, of New
York, did not expect General Newton to
accept the commissionership he offered
him the offer being made for effect, with
intent to appoint more comfortable man
to the place after the general declined it.
Newton was chief of engineers in the
United States army and was well-known
IL New York, where he had conducted the
Hell Gate excavations. He had but year
pnoss to serve In the army, before
- reached the retiring age, and as he liked
a active life lse very readily accepted the
New York commissionership, which gave
Nm both work and cash, with q chance of
mSr dlatincticn. 1t is not pleasant to a
man OF 81 ysars to be told that he is of an
~ 70 % retired, and the army law is
hardly wise one which puts out of ser.

The Rr1Dce and the CEar.

2MiSht rsasonably have been expected to
~; and it cannot he regarded as
u sincere expression. 1t is mani.
otH prompted by fear or by di-
l1omAcy; and probably by both. 1t is
kuoWn OF all men that the czar wants
! Alnandsr to come out of Bulgaria; and
Alexander has shown that he has no such
aG1lre or intention. He was taken out
1ofeibly, II not by Russia, certainly by
thooe In sympathy with her. He has gone
6ock, against her desire /; this was well
J known and doubtless expressed to him.
And altar he gets back he releases the
peopIe who conspired against and seized
him, end tells the car that he is thankful
70 him for letting him 60 after he was
carried OF into his territory. He declare:
thAt - the czar gave him his crown he i:
ready to surrender it to him.
And this, after he has just defied the
cxnr BY returning to Bulgaria. His hum.
BE and clever words do not befit his &C
tions. II he was disposed to be in fact
submissive to the czar he certainly would
have begun his submission before he com

skillful commander and a prudent leader
He Is now, we presume, airing his politica
adroitneas, and finds it expedient to tende
publicly submission to the czar which Il

the car IL he can ; and il he cannot, to a
least put upon Russia the responsibility TO
the quarrel. He has her in hole now b.
hsr action in seizing him, and he is deter
mined to give her no excuse TO
further violence by being violen
I Wself. He is very pruden
plinc6, but might be a trifle les
deligent in self abasement, withou
hurt. He has somewhat overdone th'
thing. We fear he has said to the CA
what he does not mean when he declares
that he would resign to him his crown
This just depends upon whether he think
he has a chance to keep it (; and in tn
coming hubbub he is likely to find it. l
Alexander Is the man he has seemed to b
he is not going to drop his crown without
struggle.
It looks very much as though there wa
to be war springing out of this. The cza
thinks his fathers memory wants defense
and that is the way sovereigns talk whe
they are contemplating violence.

the prophetic power of sclences He said
that it was possible that there would soon be.
or might even now be in progress new set
tlement OF the bed of the Atlantic ocean, es-
pecislly on its western side, aud that there
would possibly be, at the same time, renewed
volcanic activity on the eastern margin Of
the ocean. 1t is now claimed that both of
these things have taken place and Professor
Dawson is in danger of being looked to fer
warning of future seismic disturbances. A
coast survey official has already been sent to
Charleston to determine the character OF the
changes Of the ocean bed and possibly to
further confirm Professor Dawson's theory.
