SOME Republican newspapers are
warning Mr.. Blaine of the fate of
leaders who have dared to oppose
their party in the past. Seward,
Webster, and Clay are mentioned
as examples. Others of the party
papers are commencing Mr.. Blaine
for his manhood in opposing the
party leaders when the latter are
trying to commit great wrong upon
the American people. We think
Mr.. Blaine is greater than his party
and will lead rather than be led by
it. he did so during the last cam
paign even to the extent of making
his party advocate cheap whisky
and tobacco in the place of cheap
salt and clothing. He can surely
do so now with his recently es-
poused reciprocity ideas, for these
contain elements Of good sense and
the quality of justice. The news
papers that are so solicitous of MIR.
Blaine's welfare as to give him these
friendly warnings to keep quiet and
not breed discord in the party, may
as we'll hold their peace. Nor has
he lost any of his former sagacity,
he knows what he is about, and the
warnings of anxious newspapers are
not likely to make him retreat from
his present commanding advantage.

An Ignorant Queen.

If what is said Of her is true,
Queen Victoria is actually one Of
the most ignorant persons IN her
realm to-day on subjects OF vital
interest to the English nation.
Reason why. She is not permitted
to read newspapers. The plebeian
touch of common newspaper must
not come in contact with the hand
of royalty. A member of the queen 8
household goes through the journals
daily, cuts out whai is supposed to
interest her majesty, pins it upon
silk and places it before the royal
eye. If any contain a criticism OF
the royal actions or anything that
would be unpleasant for the queen
to see it is carefully cut out.
No wonder kings and queens
never learn anything! The stupid
est kind of a literary diet would
become after time that which only
contained praises of one. We learn
far more from our enemies than
from our friends. II we do get on
a little in the world, if we do i'm
prove our characters by Gu ltivation
as the years roll on, it is because
other people--those who don't like
us mostly-have pointed out our
mistakes. We are apt to remember
mistakes pointed out in that way.
But Queen Victoria has not even
the pleasure of getting a whack
back at those who abuse her. She
did not know of any dissatisfaction
in her favorite Second battalion Of
Grenadier Guards till the time of
their Punishment to Bermuda,
though everybody else was familiar
with it and the oppressive discipline
which was claimed to be its cause.

LONDON, August 29-The Chronicle, in

vantage. The signs of the times seem to
