Our Diplomatic Service.

For some years past the foreign repie-
sentation of the United States has been
by no means as efficient as it is to-day.
The contrast between Mr.. Cleveiand's
Ministers of foreign courts and Mr..
Harrison's is painfully unfavorable Il D
the former. Mr.. Reid at Paris is
brilliant success, whereas Mr.. McLabt
was nonentity, both socially and in
diplomacy. The present Minister IS
popular in Paris, is influential with the
Government, and is certain to succeed
in securing a reversal of the French
policy as regards American pork. Mr..
William Walter Phelps, in like manner,
is success at Berlin where Mr.. Pendle-
ton was practical failure The New

to advance American interests, and he

be claimed that he is less successful in

that woman suffrage is advancing in

foothold in different localities.-Troy

THE number of women who now have
municipal suffrage, and who will be

THE AppoRrIonmENr.
a Duty That Certainly VIII BE Performed
bx the Present Congress-.

by the Present Congress.
The Democratic press of the country
should recall the old proverb about
counting chickens before they are
hatched. Some Of them, assuming that
the Democrats will have q majority in
the next House, are getting excited.
and are arguing with much unbecoming
heat that the present Congress, at its
session the coming winter, should not
deal with the matter of apportionment.
but should delegate that pleasing duty
to the succeeding Congress.
In the first place, the House to be
elected this fall Is by no means likely
to contain a Democratic majority: but
whether it will or not, the apportion-
ment will be made this winter, by the
present Congress, for the very sufficient
reason that it is the duty of Congress to
do this as soon as may be conveniently
after the census Is taken. There is a
grotesquerie peculiarly Bourbonisn in
the position that the Republicans must
give the Democrats all the political ad-
vantage possible in apportioning Repre-
sentatives in Congress for the next ten
years. History fails to show any in
stance of the kind in Democratic annals,
however.
In point offact there is no way of get
ting any particular advantage through
reapportionment, if it be honestly and
fairly done, as it will be by Republican
Congress. The Democratic anxiety is
due to the fact that the census shows
that the Republican States have grown
more rapidly than the solidly Demo
cratic ones, and that population, prog
ress, wealth and enlightenment show
their greatest gains in localities in
which Republican sentiment is the
strongest The Bourbons wish to mega
tive the advantage this legitimately
gives the Republican party, if possible
by adopting the ratio which will give
the most Democratic Representatives.
and thus perpetuate for another ter
years the steadily waning power of the
solid South in National politics.
Our Bourbon brethren, however, may
set it down as a fact that the present
Congress will perform the work of ap
portionment, and that it will very like
ly be on the lines laid down in the Dun
nell bill, now pending in the House

DEFEAT FOR CARLISLE,
The Democratic Leader Repudiated by the
People OF Covington.

The Democratic Leader Repudiated by the
People OF Covington.
Speaker Reed and ex-Speaker Carlisle
sustain substantially the same relation
to their respective parties. BY sheer
force of intellect each came to be the
recognized leader of his party in the
House of Representatives. Mr.. Carlisle
has been transferred to tho Senate, but
his position as the Congressional leader
of the Democracy is still held. The two

went Republican.
Had the fact been reversed, and Port
land gone Democratic, every Democratic
rooster in the United States would have
rrowed Justify and long. The country
would have resounded with the shout.
As it is, the country can not fail to see
in it significant straw showing which
way the wind is blowing. The people Of
Covington are probably proud OF Mr.. Car
isles ability. He is man of brains.
But he has never accomplished much of
any thing. His name is not linked with
any notable piece of legislation, nor did
the Congresses over which he presided
as Speaker succeed in doing any thing
noteworthy. They were negative in
character. The Mills bill passed the
House, but that was a barren victory for
free trade. The sessions as whole were
merely negative.
Covington is the second city of Ken
lucky, and so near Cincinnati as almost
to be suburb of it. This is not the
first surprise and chagrin for Mr.. Car
Isle. Four years ago he. was really
defeated for Congress, but the election
committee let him in. He received the
certificate from the Governor and was
elected Speaker. The Speakership en-
abled him to name the members of the
committee which would sit in Judgment
upon his case. Here is another '.acci-

Bourbon State is in no small danger of
getting set back from which he can not

WISE COUNSEL,
Judicious Advice to the Aspiring Girl of
To-daN-Conslder Well Your DUTY,

Judicious Advice to the Aspiring Girl of
To-day-Conslder Well Your Duty.
She is bright and ambitious; she looks
out at tho workers in the world and
thinks that if she was among them she
would make a great success, and that
reward of fame-money-woul come to
her in plenty. Now l do not want to
say one word to discourage the one who
thinks she is doing right in walking in
this path. 1t is a hard one to travel,
and for the traveller there is not the gen.
tie protection. the kindly consideration
which is her lot at home.
But, ought you to go? May not the
lifework for you be in the home? May
not the reward of industry be sense of
duty done, and the love of those around
you? We are all too prone to accept
these rewards as commonplace, and only
what should come to us, whereas they
are, my dear girls, the brightest jewels
that shine in the crown of woman.
Look at home. On the work that is
waiting for you there Do not under
estimate it's value. Whatever it is, do
it with a willing heart and quick
hand. Think it your pleasure to do it
we'll. Make it your delight to be so sue
cessful that the home people will praise
you. And if sometimes you give a
thought to the big gay world, where each
is for herself and only God for all, be
ashamed of the sigh that you give, re-
membering that you are working where
God thinks it best for you to do so; and
that you only merit displeasure when
you scorn your work, or do it as do those
who think eye-service of value. Don't,
don't t, dear girl, rush away from your
home Think it all out first and sec
where mother needs you. Then, after
all, you get a better reward than any
other worker, for you receive the bless
ing of God and the loving thanks Of a
mother.-Ladies' Home Journal

FROM CELIE, NELLIE AND vELIE:
BY their next friend, Eliza Sproat Turner.
We are three tender, clinging things,
With palpitating natures:
We can't endure that gentlemen
Should think of us as creatures
Who dress like frights, and want their rights
Or business to attend to;
Or have their views, or ask the news,
Or any thing that men do.

We're not estranged, we're no way changed
And not the least strong minded
We can't abide careers and things;
We never touch an ism;
We couldn't stand outside sphere,
Nor do syllogism-
We don't enjoy rude health. like some,
Nor mannish Independence;
We're helpless as three soft-shelled crabs
Without some male attendance.
We need-oh, how we need-a guide;
Secure, his views obtaining,
or what TO like, and where to step,
And whether it is raining.
And when we roam, we wait for him
To point, with manly structures,
The landscape out, and say, "BeholdT

Too easily we're blinded;
We're clingins. and hanging
And truly feeble-minded.

And sells her talents, like man,
For bold remuneration.

States according to the official returns
are about as follows:

been several thousand larger if it had
