Germany.

The well. known liberal views OF En-.
peror FREDERICK on certain Questions
have been held to indicate that should
he live any length OF time there would
be an extension OF parliamentary rule
ard power in Germany. Certainly none
of his utterances since his accession
Justify this conclusion. In all Of his
outgivings he has come very close to the
people and shown that he has implicit
faith In their patriotism. No one can
doubt the sincerity OF his pledges TO live
up to the Constitution and regard sacredly
the rights whether of States, persons, or
Legislative bodies But he has been care
full to avoid encouraging the hope of a
REIMBURSEMENT Of any of his imperial
rights. This fact, which was made APP
parent in his proclamation to the people
and his letter to BISMARCK, is emphasized
in his message TO the Reichsiag. The
last named is not only in harmony with
the principle for the maintenance Of
which BISMARCK declared that he would
willingly lose his head, but is so worded
as to excite the suspicion that it was III
spired-if, indeed, il was not written
by the Chancellor, who countersigned it.
Nor does this do violence to the i'm
preston that FREDERICK is a broad
minded, liberal man. Considering the
situation, who will say that it would be
wise to grant the Reichstag an extension
of power? Who will say that it would
at present be wise to grant to Germany
a more liberal Constitution by making
the Ministers responsible to the people !?
German unity for the defence of the
Fatherland is an accomplished fact, but
German homogenity is thing of the
future. The Reichstag is split up into
many different groups. 1t is only in
crises that these can be consolidated.
The coalition that stood by BISMARCK
this year may be the one that will de-
feat him next year. Suppose, as is
the case in England, the ministry might
be ovorthrown any day, is it not plain
that an appeal to the people would bring
about interminable confusion ? We do
not say that homogenity in Germany
will not come. On the contrary the
trend is in that direction. But we do not
believe that it will come either in the
time of the present Emperor or of his sue
cessor, and until it does less government
would be dangerous experiment-dan-
gerous not only to the territorial in
tegrlty of the empire, but to internal
peace, and consequently to that patriot
ism which has made the nation the
Power it is to-day.

| Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
ONANCoCK, March 10, 1888.
Persons arriving here from Tanger
island, in the Chesapeake bay, report
considerable damage done there by the
recent storm. About thirty vessels were
blown ashore and stranded on the sand
beaches, and the schooner Fannie South
ward, belonging to John d. Parks and
Frank Dies, was 30 badly torn up that
she will probably prove total wreck.
No other damage of any consequence
was done to property on the island.
The schooner Frayser, belonging to
Polk Ling, of Accomack Courthouse,
was lost in Lynnhayen bay, where she
had been engaged in taking oysters.
Loss about 1880.
A South American gentleman who has
been visiting Captain Orris A. Browne,
at 1.-The Folly" near Accomack Court
house, had thrilling adventure in the
storm. The day before tie storm cane
up he procured a small boat, for which
he improyised sails with old guano bags,
and set out for Cedar island, which lies
on the Atlantic coast about five or
six miles from Captain Brownies home,
intending to remain on the island all
night and return the following morning.
But when morning came the wind was
so high and the sky so stormy that the
South American gentleman had to aban-
don his intention OF returning and remain
on the lonely island like another Robiu-
son Crusoe or Alexander Selkirk. He
was the only living soul on the island.
and t1ere was only a small shanty to
shelter him from the terrible storm
that ragged SO iuriously for more than
thirtysix hours. He remained on the
island till late Monday evening, when
Captain Browne sent rescuing party to
the island and had him brought of. lie
had been nearly two days without food,
and had the wind blown from the sea in
stead Of from the land he would proba-
bly, have persisted The gentleman left
for his home in South America firmly
convinced that for genuine blizzard

We have received a copy of the annual
report of Major JOHN Poe. Jr., Chief of
Police. Not one man has been added to
the police force in eighteen years, al
though the population of the city has
increased 80 per cent. in that time. This
ought not to be so. Economy of this
sort is like the economy that is not afraid
OF fires and does not insure property
against them. There were more white
than black males arrested last year, but
six times as many negro women as white
women. There were more persons ar
rested on Saturday than any other day
