Re-estabIishing Old Relations.

Re-establishing Old Relations.
For a time their relations with the
Emperor were very straIned-so much 50
indeed, that he did not attend the ,yed-
ding of their only daughter. Feodore, to
Prince Henry xxx Of Reuss. But OF late
the relations between Sake Meiningen
and the Kaiser have considerably i'm
proved. The congratulations extended TO
the prince and princess on the occa-
sion Of their silver wedding, will derive
additional warmth from the fact that
their marriage has turned out happily,
that their domestic happiness has Lecn
unclouded, and that they are couple in
sympathy with one another. At th,, time
OF their wedding a quarter OF 4 century
ago forebodings to the contrary we're ex-
pressed. For the prince gave one the ia
preston of being more of the student
and OF the poet than Of the soldier or the
sportsman, and he was considered 10
such a degree untitled in character and
tastes to become the husband OF so high
spirited, spOrt-loving and brilliant a
woman as Princess Charlotte that q very
widespread opinion was created to the
effect that she had been forced into the
match by her mother against her own
incllnations.

THE POST ROAD PERL.

The various warnings of danger to the
Albany Post Road which we have somoeo III
these columns are now seen not TO nave Oeeh
without cause The menace TO that unrivalled
+borougbfare is real and immediate. After
some shrewd devices to throw the defenders
of the road off their guard and to give currency
to the notion that the spoliatiOn scheme had
been abandoned the grab bill was suddenly
broucit ND again and rushed through the Sen
ate on Tuesday with the evident intention OF
getting If through the Assembly IN similar
fashion in the last hours of the session. 1t Is
thus that indefensible jobs are usually "sneaked
through" or damned through"
That this is a most indefensible job is so
obvious as scarcely to need repetition. The
people who live along the Post Road are op-
posed to It. The people Of the villages through
which that road runs are opposed TO it. as was
shown at the recent elections. The people VINO
for years have maintained the Post Road as
one of the finest thoroughfares in the world are
onnosed TO it. The only demand for it is on
the part OF a s0rdid and selfish corporation
which wishes to grab for its use a road that
others have made for other purposes ana thus
save itself the expense of making its own road
II the grab bill reaches the Governor, it is
confidently hoped that he will veto it But it
IS a discreditable thing that such a measure
should ever get so far to be laid before
him II should never have been introduced
into the legislature If introduced, it should
never have cot out Of committee. If it got ont
of committee. it should have been rejected by
an overwhelming majority. But since it has
got as far as It has. it behOoyes every friend
Of the Post Road and every friend OF public
rights to make last determined rally

ONE KIND OF TNTEMPERANCE.

1t is strange how many men who have occa-
sion TO make pretty constant use in public oil
their mother tongue for the purpose of earning
a livelihood or achieving fame are betrayed
from time to time into suppOsing that sound is
an Ingredient of sense and that fury is impress
sive Thus Senator Stone, of Missouri, the
other evening, being disturbed By the irrever-
ent mention of his name in connection with GER
tain legislative proceedings, expressed himself
concerning the ''scavengers of the press" as fol-
lows: Before my God fear them not; laugh
In their faces and spit upon them" Then,
warmed by his own exordium, he added: Il
'hope God will wither my hand, palsy my
tongue and burn my heart in the flames Of he'll
before I will Intentionally dishonor any pO-
"sition TO which the people Of Missouri assign
'-me." II We were considering the painful fre-
quency with which the auxiliary verbs are NAL
treated we should feel bound to inform the Sen
ator that his second "will'' In the latter quota
ton makes a dreadfully awkward thing of the
sentence But let that pass, since it won't
parse What we have in mind at present is to
suggest that If the Senator had resisted the
temptation to bring hell, saliva and palsy into
the case, and had simply said, of course with
suitable firmness and emphasis, that he had
never done wrong in his public capacity and
betraying any trust reposed in him by the peo-
pie Of Missouri his declaration would have pro-
duced far more agreeable effect and been, per
Sc at least twice as convincing

"of Pennsylvania practically getting their coal

dogs when a decent remunerative price is
asked" Now. whatever else may be true as
70 the anthracite situation, It is perfectly GER
tain that the people of this city have never
knowingly wrung the bowels out of the coal re-
gions They wouldn't do such a thing 1t would
be repugnant to their feelings even If they had
no conscientious seruples. Nor in all the vast
volume Of sound which has sauted the skies at
frequent intervals, as the price Of coal has risen
and fallen between S5 and $50 ton, have we
