TINE FOR MUCH TROUBLE.
Sonic of the papers are talking about
the next governor. But this is little
previous. There is no vacancy in the
office. More, there is no immediate
prospect of one. We have heard nothing
about Gov. Pages resigning. We do
not believe he intends to resign. One
paper thinks he better have second
term. But he hasn't got through with
his first term. There is time for terrific
cyclone in the public sentiment of the
State before we need a new governor.
Keep calm, gentlemen.-l Randolph Her

LONDON, Feb. pa dispatch from Paris
to the Times says that the principal motive
for the visit Of ex-Empress Frederick to
Paris is a settlement of s2,000.OO0 be-
queathed her by the Duchess Gallicra. This
legacy. according to the Times correspond
ent, the empress intends to apply 70 re-
furnishing and 10 decoration Of the castle
of Konigstein, drawing heavily upon French
art collections in carrying out her aim.
The empress visit to the French capital is
said held TO be proof OF her complete recon-
citation with Emperor William.
TO REMAIN TILL FRIDAY.
PARIS, Feb. 23.-I.ate this afternoon It
was announced that ex-Empress Frederick
and her daughter would stay in this city
until Friday next. TIE ex-empress Is
pleased with her visit, and has decided to

nally fixed for her sojourn The imperial

The project Of the seine, NJ. Poubelle, has

ambassador. in reply 70 a communication
received from the latter ia regard to the
| possibly over-zealous attention which the
empress has received from French reporters,
that be the prefect) is unable to interfere
with these representatives of the press
Upon the receipt of this notification, the
officials OF the German embassy decided to
| supply the press with a record of the en-
press movements during her stay. But this
record being meager and dry many re-
| porters still haunt tho empress. The result
is that the empress has resorted TO varions
expedlents, such as leaving the embassy by
the back Of tnat building and pro-
| ceeding on foot to her carriage, which
had been previously driven 10 some conve-
nient spot. Frequently the empress aud
her daughter, Princess Margaret, drove in
| different directions, ia order TO Greats a di-
version and bewilder the journalists. but
the latter managed to keep pretty closely
on the trail OF the empress, In spite of her
efforts TO keep away from them.
| A BETTER FEELING TOWARD GERMANY.
Yesterday evening thore was Fumor
| circulated TO the effect that the two ladies
were to be present at the Lamour concert.
| Consequently a great crowd collected in
and about the vicinity OF the concert hall,
but the empress and her daughter did
not appear. Two Germans, however, sang
Mozart and Wagser duets ia German, q
hazardous proceeding before a French pub
lie. The audience, after hesitatin0 few
moments, suddenly burst out In vociferous
applause. There can be no doubt that the
empress visit to Paris has been productive
here of an era Of much better feeling
toward Germany.

In the light Of the publication of sx-Presdent

upon the silver question, do not believe there
is q democratic member Of tho Senate who
would favor his nominationfor the presidency,
or who believes that It would be possible
to elect him IN 1S92ff nominated. No oTganiza-
ton is effected or attempted here hostile to
him, but there is now but one opinion as TO his
lack OF availability. l have no personal obiec-
ton to Mr.. Cleveland in the world, but am
not, aad mover will be in favor OF the

unwise to select any New York man. However,
we cannot tell what two months may produce

The Appropriation Bulls to Be Put
through Without Hindrance.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Speaker Reed
was prepared to keep the House in continue
GUS session from now until Wednesday next
in order to prevent the democrats from sue
cessfully filibustering against the subsidy
bill, the direct tax bill and other of Speaker
Reeds schemes, but the democrats showed
no signs Of fliDustering this morning, and
the general deficiency appropriation bill
was considered, with considerable Interrupt
ton, throughout the day. No obstruction
is Co be put in the way Of the appropriation
bills by the democrats, but they will fight
the other bills on the speakers memoir
andum. Lees than ten democrats now favor
the subsidy bill They are more than ball
anced by the republicans who oppose it.
The direct tax bill has more support on the
democratic side, but not so much as on the
republican. It seems unlikely that either
can get through.
