WmLE the people Of England will no doubt
heartily sympathze with their royal family
il tho death OF Prince Albert Victor. they
will. for political reasons be glad that Prince
George OF Wales. his younger brother. has
become heir presumptiye to the throne. The
deceased Prince is described as having been
rather weak man, lacking both the physical
and mental force for ruler, while Prince
George is believed 10 possess all the needed
attri utes. While, therefore, the death Of the
elder son Of the Prince of Wales will excite
sincere sorrow. especially at this time. when
he was in the midst Of preparations for his
approaching marriage. the British people Will
feel that they have, I'm his demise, the pros
pect Of more satisfactory sovereign.
TnS death Of Cardinal Manning removes
the last o. the three great men who did so
much 10 adorn the Roman Catholic Church in
ENGLAND in the course Of the present century.
Cardinal Wseman was the first TO die, then
Cardinal Newman. and now Cardinal Man
ming. men Of great talents and scholarship.
and in the instance OF Wisemsn and Manning
of extraordinary administrative abilities. The
Roman Catholic Church in England is now
left without any dgnitary of great personal
distinction. but doubtless some younger man
will come forward and I'LL acceptably the con-
spicuous position which has been left vacant
by the death of Manning.
THE bill introduced by Congressman Little
providing for the heavy taxation of lotteries
will do much TO destroy the Louisiana Lottery
Company. even if Its proposition receives the
assent Of majority Of the voters Of Louisiana.
The public sentiment of the whole Union is
determined 70 put down these demoEalizng
iniquities. and it will succeed by one means or
another.
