The Tnrklsh Provinces,
Every day's news seems to increase
tho probability that despite outside in
tervention. all the Turkish provinces will
join in the. revolt aguinst the Moslem
yoke. Austria, as the organ of the five
mediatory powers, has been doing her
best for weeks to smother the flames
of war, but apparently in vain. Tho
hatred between the Serb and the Turk is
too inveterate, and as the mediatory
powers do not propose to resort to force
to suppress the revolt, it will probably
go on—and daily increase and widen, till
it is not improbable that Russia and Aus
tria themselves may ultimately bo drawn
into tbe support of tho revolutionists,
and tho Turk be driven not only out of
these provinces, but oven ont of Europe
itself.

tbo world and change all existing politi
cal and commercial conditions. With
such a possibility in tho near future,

|V Hindoo Bible forbids a woman to I
.Maud .Van: field.
This is the title of a new novel, ju6t
issued in excellent style from tho press
of J. W. Burke & Co., of this city.
The author is the accomplished Mrs,
Frances Hamilitou Hood, of Rome, Qeoi
gin, and a formor pnpil of onr own cher-
ished Wesleyan Female College. She is
tho dangbter also of Dr. Hamilton, of
the neighboring county of Jones, nnd
wife of Hon. D. M. Hood, of Fi-yd conn
ty. Tho work is affectionately dedicated
to Mrs. Estelle Cuylor Smith, a daughter
of tho authoress by a former marriage
with Telliman Cuyler, Esq.. of Savannah
Her first literary effort aside from sun
dry fugitive pieces of poetry, this book
stamps Mrs. Hood with genius of a high
order, and powers of conception and nar
ration of no ordinary description. From
first to last every character is admirably
sustained, and the interest of tho reader
preserved throughout.
Tbe story commences in the third
year of the war, when the straggle was
fiercest, and the passions of the opposing
sections most implacable. The dramatis
personas were relations who dwelt on
both sides of Mason and Dixon’s line, or
had sought safety in a foieign country.
Still it is not a tale of partisan or in
ternecine strife, bnt designed to illus
trate the true duty and mission of wo
man, in opposition to the new fangled
doctrines of modern female reformers.
And this is most successfully done in the
scries of stirring events and incidents
which culminate at length in tbe discom
fiture and death of the erring votaries of
free love and spiritualism, and the tri
umph of virtue and chastity.
As an evidexce of the great merit of
the work, we nave only to say that scch

The Great Work of Messrs.
Moody ami Sftukey,
It is imoo-'ible to read the daily dis
course.; of Mr. Moody, as reported rer
bafitn in the New York Tribune, without
finding yonr heart going out in sympathy
with this uulettered.yet most remaikable
evangelist of modern times. There is a
certain rode eloquence in bis utterances,
and homely, searching, incisive method
of applying the truth to the consciences
of men, that at once arrest attention
and challenge conviction.
Piety, simplicity, earnestness, are the
striking and salient characteristics of
the e devoted servants of the Living
God. In seeking to explain or account
for the tremendous power which they
wield, not only over tbe masses, bnt the
loftiest intellects and most erudite
scholars of the age. tbe trite expressions,
"sensational,” “fanatics,” ‘‘ad captan-
dum,” "emotional,” ‘rieauistical,” etc.,
apply not in the least degree to them
or their labors. On tbo contrary,-.all of
these are eminently lacking.
The appeal to the heart is made in the
plainest language and tbe tersest sen
tences possible. There is no attempt at
rhetoric—not a scintilla of elegance—no
studied programme—no bombas’ic furor
—no melodramatic effort whatever.
Christ, and Him crucified, ia the bur
den of their exhortations and sonprs. As
dying men, they speak to dying men, in
homely parlance, but with a directness,
piety and fervent z?al which are conta
gious, and under the sanctifying but
mysterious influence of God’s Holy
Spirit, ell powerful for the overthrow of
Satan’s kingdom.
Mr. Moody ir certainly an adept in his
knowledge of human nature, and every
argument he uses is pointed with some
apposite illustration from real life, rela
ted with the most charming naivete and
bonhommie. Ha has told tbe same old,
old story of tbe cross for hundreds of
times, anil yet the people never tire of
hearing of the blessed Saviour, and on
each occasion fresh revelations are made
of his passing love,- his precious atone
ment for sin, his abounding goodness
and crowning mercies.
Nearly all tho ministers of tho evan
gelical churches in New York co-operate
heartily in the good work, and we are
pleased to note also that the most con
servative religions journals in the coun
try approve of the spirit and Isbors of
these men of God.
What if the Most High chooses for
His own glory, thns to employ these
humble agents to bring salvation to lost
souls ? Did Ho not likewise call apostles
and evangelists of old from tbe rank* of
fishermen, tent-maker* and publicans to
bear bis name to all nations and peoples?
Who knows but thj mission of these
godlv men is not also to teach the regu
lar occupants of the pnlpit, that some
thing more, ofttimea is necessary than
exhaustive doctrinal sermons, profound
erudition and denominational aenmen to
win souls to Christ? Not that our min
ister* as a class are wanting in fidelity
nnd zeal, bnt there are seasons of spirit
ual deadness, when extraordinary agen
cies seem necessary to awRken the zeal
of believers, and touch the consciences of
the nicked and careless. It is then that
evangelists like Moody and Sankey are
raised up for groat and wise purposes,
and this has ever been the case in the
past history of the chnrch.
We append two extracts taken almost
at random from the discourse* of Mr.
Moody the past week. They will be
good Sunday reading for all:
salvation a personal, individual mat
ter.
“ Well.” says a lady, " my trouble is
not with the bible, which I believe in
from end to end, nor do I have any trou
ble about that other excuse about serv
ing Christ; bnt tho trouble I have is in
seeing so many hypocrites, and I am not
going to join the church, there are so
many hypocrites. I know a person who
cheated mo out of $5,and that same per
son pretended to be a Christian, and so
you mnst not ask me to associate with
hypocrites.” Well, I say, if you don’t
want to associate with hypocrites, you
had better get out of the world as quick
as you can. You will find ono hundred
hypocrites outside of the church where
you find one in it. If you don’t want to
associate with hypocrites you had better
accept this invitation at once. If I ever
find a nun who is a hypocrite, and be
trays the cause of Christ, it only makes
we want the Ioto of Christ all the more,
and I want to serve him all the better.
Beoause this or that man is untrue is it
any reason why I should like less the
causa they betray ? That is no excuse
either, then. It is a personal, an individ
ual matter with you. Suppose almost all
men on the face of the earth are hypo
crite, it is ao sign that yon or I should be
Is that any reason why you ahouid
not become Christ’s follower? Never
mind what this or that man is doing ; it
is a personal matter, and the invitation
to-day is to every man and woman in this
assembly. Do you want to be there?
There is a yeung man over there who
says, "Mr. Moody has not touched my
case at all. My trouble is different
would like to b-corae a Christian, but if
I become one I am afraid I won’t hold
out.” That is a very common excuse.
We have it in the inquiry room every
night. "There is no one in New York
that feels more anxious to btcome
Christian than I do,” said a young man
tue other night, "but I am afraid that I
will not hold out.” Now, is it our work
to keep ourselves, or is it tho work of the
shepherd to keep tbe sheep ? The Keeper
of Israel never slumbers and sleeps, and
is not tbe God of Israel able to keep ue?
The work of tne shepherd is to take care
of the sheep and not the sheep to take
care of thishepherd . I was talking the
other day with a man that was 78 years
old, and he was afraid if he became a
Christian be would not hold out. I was
amazed. It is not only the young that
are afraid, but the old too. God is »bls
to make you stand and keep you. It takes
the same grace to keep us that it does to
convert us. “My grace is sufficient for
thee.”
Now the question comes: Will you
trust Him to-day? You will be able to
tand if God stands with you. When I
was talking with that young man, it re
minded me of a boy of whom I knuw
some years ago, whose father was a mis
erable drunken wretch and infidel, and
he would not allow a praying man under
bis roof, for he said that a man who
prayed was nothing bnt a black-hearted
hypocrite. Somebody got hold of his lit
tle boy and got him into the Sabbath
school, and he was converted. One day
afterward the old man caught him pray
ing, and he caught him by the collar and
jerked him to his feet, commandiug him
with oaths never to be caught doing that
ain or he would have to leave borne
forever. .Twice after that he caught him
the act of praying, and the last time
told him to leave his house forever. The
little fellow packed up his things in a
handkerchief, went down into the kitchen
wi.rre bis mother was and bade her good
bye, and then went and bade his little
brother and >ister good-bye, and as he
passed his father on his way to the door,
he reached up his arms to put them
around his father's neck and said: "Good-
bye. father. A* long as I live I will pray
for you," and he went down the street,
but he had not gone a great while before
his father came after him and said : 4 If
that is Christianity I want it.” And the
hoy went back and prayed with his father
and led him to Christ. Sj you see you
cannot give any excuse for not coming to
Jesus, so accept his invitation this hour
and be saved.
ENLISTING AS A SOI.DIXR OT CHRIST.
One day I was walking through the
streets of York in England. I saw a lit
tle way ahead a soldier coming toward
me. He had tbe red uniform oa of the
infantry—the drees of the army. I knew
at onte when I ea’w him that he was a
soldier. When he came near me I stopped
him. I said, “My good man, if you have
no objection I would like Lo aek you a
few questions.” "Certainly, Sir.” said
he. "Well, then, I would like to know
how you first became a soldier.” “Yee,
Sir, I will tell you. You see. Sir, I want
ed to become a soldier, and the recruit
ing officer was in our town, aud I went
up to him and told him that I wanted to
enlist. Well. Sir, he said * All right,’
and the first thing he did. Sic, he took
an English shilling out of his pocket,
Sir. and put it into my hand. The very
moment, Sir, a recruiting-sergeant puts
n shilling into your hand you are a sol
dier.” I said to myself. “That is tho
very illustration I want.” That man
was a free man at one time—he could go
here and there; do just what he liked;
but the moment the shilling was pntinto
his hand he was subject to the rales of
war, and Queen Victoria conld send him
anywhere and make him obey the
rnlea and regulations of the army.
He is a soldier the very minute
he take the shilling. He hag not
got to wait to put on the uniform.
And when you ask me how a man may
become converted at once, I answer,
just tbe same as that man became a sol-
dier. The citizen becomes a roldier in a
minute, and from being a freeman be
comes subject to the commands of others.
The moment yon take Christ into your
benrt, that moment your name is written
in the roll of Heaven. You are enlisted
a soldier of Christ, and you cannot then
do as you choose, but you must do what
he lays down. Don’t you see then how
yoa can become a Christian at once, my
friends ? It is very plain. Don’t go ont
of this hall to-day. then, and say you
can’t see it. I don’t see hoar I can make
it any plainer. Though you accept Christ,
yet yon are a sinner still, hut a sored sin
ner There is a great deal of difference
between tbe two—between a saved and
unsaved sinner. I have been a saved
sinner myself for twentv-one years. Yon
ask me if I don’t sin. Yes, I do; but I
hate sin. For twenty ono years I have
been a soldier—a poor and unworthy sol
dier—but still a soldier. Twenty-one
year* ago this month I took, as I may
eay, the English shilling. I enlisted in
t.ho Rrmy of Christ, and he has been ever
since my life, my Lord, my all. Now,
dear friends, won’t you have him ? “As
many as received Him He gave p werto
become the Sons of God." Oh! just say
you will receive Him, then.
FKOJl WASHINGTON
Thfl Caucus aurt the Conclusion.
Special to tlie Cincinnati Enquirer.]
Wall street has triumphed, aud not
withstanding the loud rebuke of the New
Hampshire eleotion, the leaders of the
Democracy have cut their throats from
ear to ear, and tbe Presidential campaign
is to be fought on the platform of the
enemy. The Democrats in crucub to
night adopted Payne’s compromise.
There were about 150 Democrats present.
Tnere wis not much debate, but the
money power has evidently seen their
ruin. Holman offered a substitute for
Payne’s Campaign-killer bill providing
for a repeal of the resumption aot. This
was voted down, and Payne’s compromise
was adopted by a vote of seventy to fifty.
Of the Ohio delegation Payne and Hurd
voted for the compromise, and Southard,
McMahon, Neal, Vance, Poppleton,
Cowan, Savnge, Rice, Sayler and Ban
ning voted against it. Virginia and the
South went with Wall street, and West
Virginia was delivered over by Faulkner.
Missouri, Tennessee and Indiana stood
almost solid with Ohio. The greenback
men refuse to be bound by the action of
the caucus. The hard money men saw
that it would not do to attempt to bind
them. Tho greeubackers will make an
effort in the House to substitute for
Payne’s bill an act providing for an un
conditional repeal of tho resumption act.
Holman gave notice that he would move
a suspension of the rules next Monday
for the purpose of Introducing a bill pro
viding for tbe repeal of the resumption
act. There are enough Republican* who
have not forgotten their constituents to
get such a bill through.
The New Finance Bill.
We give below tho full text of the bill
reported by the majority of the DemO'
oratic Caucus Committee, and adopted
Wednesday night by a vote of 69 to 46:
A bill to provide for tho gradual resumption of-1
specie payments. I * ar( f
Be it enacted by, etc., that it shall be
the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury,
during each and every year, from and
after July 1, 1S76, and until the legal-
tender notes of the United States shall
be appreciated to par value with gold,
and shall be convertible into coin, to
cause to be set aside and retained
coin an amount equal to three per centum
of such legal-tender notes outstanding,
and from the date of such convertibility
as aforesaid, the amount of coin set aside
and retained as aforesaid, shall be held
a* a resumption fund, in respect to said
legal-tender notes, and shall at no time
be less than 30 per centum of such out
standing legal-tender notes; provided,
however, that the coin so set aside and
retained as above provided, shall be
counted as a part of the sinking fund
for the purchase or payment of tbe pub
lic debt, an required by seotion 36 of the
Revised Statutes.
Section 2. That it shall be tbe dnty
of each National Banking Association,
during each and every year from and
after July 1,1876. and until the complete
resumption of the payment on specie of
its circulating notes, to set aside and re
tain from the coin receivable as interest
on the bond* deposited with the Treas
ury of the Uaited States as security for
its circulation, an amount equal to 3 per
centum of its circulating notes, issued to
such association and not surrendered,
and from tbe date of its resumption of
specie payments, as aforesaid, the amount
of coin to be held and maintained as a
resumption shall at no time be less than
30 per centum of its outstanding circu
lation ; provided, however, that the coin
by this section directed to be sat aside
and retained,.shall be counted as a part
of the lawful money reserve which said
associations are, by existing laws, re
quired to maintain.
Sec. 3. That so much of section 3 of an
act entitled “ An act to provide for the
resumption of specie payments," ap
proved January 14. 1875, as reqaires the
Secretary of the Treasury to redeem
legal tender notes to the amount of 30
per centum of tbe sum of national bank
notes itsued by any banking association
increasing its capital or circulation, or to
any association newly organized or pro
vided for in said section, and also so mnch
of said section 3 as related to or provided
for the redemption in coin of the United
S'ate* legal tender notes on and after
January 1, 1879. and all ether provisions
of law inconsistent with this act, aro
hereby repealed.

Now, general, I would like to know
if you were in earnest when you wrote

Editorial Correspondence—No.33.
Washington Citt, March 15, 1876.
gen. Gordon’s
late speech on reform in tbe method of
collecting the whisky tax, has evoked
much and very favorable comment from
the leading Northern and Western news'
papers. The Herald, World and Tribune,
all endorse it in the most decided man
ner, as do also the Boston Post and Ad
vertieer, and the Chicago Times and Tri
bune. The New York Herald and the
Boston Advertiser are, I notice, especially
earnest in their commendation. These
powerful exponents of public sentiment
are particularly severe in their condem
nation of the miserable attempt by Mor
ton and Sherman to belittle and nullify
Gen. G.’s scathing rebuke of Jacobin cor
ruption and profligacy in this connection,
and declare that the honest sentiment of
the country is with him in his efforts to
secure a reform. Whether reform will
come, of course, depends upon a change
of rulers next year. It is absolutely cer
tain that so long as the Jacobins are In
power they will never consent to any re
form, especially one that will stop steal
ing and thus deprive them of a corrup
tion fnnd for election purposes. Thoy
know too well the immense power this
whisky stealing gives them to consent to
any reform. Reform and honesty mean
death to them, and thoy intend to stran
gle both if they can. But it is certain
that Gen. G. has made them tremble,
and that they will fight to the death any
change that promises to root up and kill
out the army of corruptionists the Jaco
bins keep in their pay under the name
and guiso of government officials to col-
lect this tax. He has deserved eminently
Well of the country, whether he succeeds
or not, aud added greatly to his national
repute as an honest, fearless and elo
quent publio servant and statesman.
BELKNAP
is still ont of jail, and the prosecution
seems at a complete stand still by rea
son of Marsh’s absence in Canada. There
is a very unpleasant and untimely hitch
in the bssines*, which does not promise
well for Belknap’s punishment. If
Marsh can come back with immunity, he
will do so, but there will have to be ad
ditional legislation before he can feel
safe in dcing so. The Jacobin* are
crowing and chuekling over the dilemma,
and growing bolder every day in their
expressions of sympathy for, and defence
of the bribe taker, if they are not
openingly defending the miserable cor
ruptionist in less than ten days I stall
be greatly deceived. I don't know whetb
it I am sufficiently informed on this bus
iness to express a very decided opinion,
but it seem3 to me the Democrats have
blundered in it, and that thia blunder
will turn out more seriously than will be
good for them or the country’s best in
terests. Marsh would be more than
human to come hack here without some
guarantee of immunity from Jacobin
prosecution through the servile courts of
the district, and it look3 to me that the
Jacobiu Senate will refuse to join tbe
House in such legislation as will secure
that immunity. Tho committee should
have held him when they had him, and
that iB tbe long and short of the whole
business.
“ LANDAULET ” WILLIAM8,
Grant’s late odorous Attorney General,
is in fresh trouble, according to reports
from one of tbe investigating commit
tees. It is asserted that an autograph
letter of his is in their possession which
proves that Williams, while in office,
sold himself for the pitiful sum of $2,000,
and this is said to be but the beginning
of the end. It is generally conceded
that his department is full of such bo
nanzas of sickening corruption, and that
if the committee can succeed in over
coming the obstacles tbe Jacobins are
so constantly and busily engaged in
throwing in their way, they can easily
put Williams alongside Belknap. But it
will take hard work. The Jacobins are
working as they never did before to close
all the avenues of leakage, by threats,
persuasions, and bribes. I have not the
slightest doubt that they would go muoh
farther if necessary in the case of a wit
ness who conld and would tell enough to
hit them a particularly damaging blow,
who is SHE?
There is much speculation and gossip
about a mysterious female who is at
present enjoyingthe hospitalities of Wil
Hotel, nhder the affectionate
charge of Sergeant-at-Arms Thomp.on.
The gossips say that the fate of a very
high Jacobin official depend* upon what
she knows and will tell the Naval Com
mittee of the House. She seen no visit
ors except the chairman of that commit
tee, and receives no letters or messages
of any kind. She is evidently a “ big
gun,” and is intended as a heavy broad
side for somebody. May she prove a
Buster.
By the way, did you ever think what
a passion some women have for mixing
themselves up with the heavy business
of Washington rascality ? There was
one in the Secor fraud, whereof Robeson
is said to know more than may be good
for him; one in the French arms busi
ness, whereof that icicle of official vir
tue, Belknap, was the central figure;
and one in the Andy Johnson pardon
brokerage business, wherein she is said
to have scooped a goodly store of shekels.
Hjw the two first named have fared I
know not, bnt people tell me that in the
case of the latter her profits have long
since disappeared. Aud to look at her
as she passes along the corridors of the
Capitol one would readily conclude that
such was the case. She certainly does
not sport golden plumage.
THE PRESIDENTIAL SALARY.
Whoever comes after Grant will very
likely have to cut his garment after a
much shorter measure of cloth that does
that distinguished statesman. The Sen
ate yesterday passed the bill lately in-
trodueed, reducing the President’s salary
ti $25,000, and it will surely go through
the House. The vote in the Senate was
not partisan, fourteen Jacobins and
twelvo Democrats voting for, and four
teen Jacobins and five Democrats against
it. All the suppoeed candidates for Pres
ident on both sides, except Bayard, voted
in the affirmative. Turkey-cock Conk
ling started to dodge, bnt'his heart failed
Mm, and he came back and bad his vote
recorded in the affirmative.
ABOUT LAMAR.
Under this head I found the following
yesterday in a Washington letter to tho
Ohio State Journal, the central Jacobin
organ in that State. It was written by
the editor who is now sojourning here.
To have thu3 earned the fear of a Jaco
bin must indeed be sweeter than the
honey and the honeycomb to an honest
man:
Lamar will turn out to be the most
dangerous man to tbe Republican party
in the present Congress. He has that
supreme wisdom of the politician—abili
ty to know when to hold his tongue, and
strength enough to hold it. He is shrewd,
steady, alert, cautious, prompt and won
derfully strong. He is a man of fasci
nating address. He has the stately
courtesy of a Hidalgo of the Moorish
conquest, and is as communicative as
Private Dalzell. Ha is all simplicity,
and ccndescendsion, and frankness, and
deference; and if I had my way, I would
trust him with everything the Republi-
c»n party owns in the world as quick as
I would trust my hand in a sweetly-pur
ring ouzx saw. He is the Lucifer of the
rebellious hosts. Overhaul your Para*
dise Lost, and, when found, make a note.
THE BEAST ON THE WAR PATH
Mr. Richard H. Dana, who was named
last week to succeed the scientific Schenck
as Minister to England is not well, I
thank you, as he was when he first heard
ef his new house. It seems he once ran
for Congress against the Beast, who beat
him by something less than 10,000 votes.
Tnis fact, however, doe* not seem to
have mollified old Cock-eye, and he is
making it hot for Dan*. It seems that
Dana is a literary pirate of the most
abandoned character, having once upon
a time published a work od international
law, the annotations of which were stolen
almost bodily from. Wheaton’s took on
the same subject. This occurred during
the war, and had been pretty well for
gotten by everybody but the Beast. Not
being on that line, however, when Dana’s
name was sent in he goes for him hot and
strong, and now the talk is that Grant
will have to withdraw his name or risk
his rejection. Danayesterday telegraph
ed for a suspension of action, and thus
the matter stands. It seems, however,
to be generally conceded taat tbe Beast
will capture his scalp.
THE JACOBINS
drained ths bar-rooms last night in honor
of the New Hampshire election. Thoy
were shaking in their knees until the re
turns came, and then every one of them
■went to howling it was just what they
expected. Then the whole gang who
were around the newspaper offices imme
diately invaded the nearest saloons and
got as drunk as their credit would allow.
Such a beastly, whooping, howling, slob
bering and noisy crowd is seldom seen
even here. They claim this victory aa
one of the most “ brilliant” in history,
ignoring the fact that more money was
sent there than has ever been known bo
fora, and that the whole p >wer and pa
tronage of the administration was used
with even more than the usual lavish
ness. Totes ranged in price from $5 to
$100, but whether cheap or dear, they
were amply supplied with funds for pur
chasing all in the market. They also
claim Connecticut next month, and open
ly boast they have the money to buy a
victory. We shall see. One thing seems
certain: The Belknap infamy, instead of
hurting, seems actually to have helped
them. They have become so utterly rot
ten that stealing has been deified.
ANOTHER.
The Washington Tribune, a rather
bright and newsy daily of ten months’
existence, has “ gone dead.” Tho trouble
was financial asphyxia—a rather com
mon complaint now-a-days among news
papers. What do you say to the theory
that the recent mysterious meat shower
in Kentucky was the fragments of
“buited” newspaper starters all over
the country carried out West by the late
high March winds ? Probably the re
mains might have been identified if sor
rowing friends had had the wherewithal
to pay railway fare—which is not gen
erally the case when they have backed
the corpse at all'enthusiastically.
R.
Politics tu France.
From the New York Herald.]
Only a little while ago there was in
France a sort of Parliamentary revolu-.
tion against an Executive that in the ad
ministration of the government of a
republic went too near, as it was
thought, to the notiou that the
majority should ruie. Thiers was
driven out because he made no se
cret of his opinion that the elements of
the political future were toward tho Left,
and MacMahon was put in power as the
safe type of a conservative reaction. His
first Cabinet was formed by the Duke de
Broglie, and the monarchists recovered
their hopes; but the Republicans drove
the government from point to point, tin
til the strongest representative of the
cmBervative reaction was M. Buffet, who
had been one of the social Republicans
1813, and an extreme liberal, for those
times, in the Cabinecs of President Louis
Bonaparte. One might fancy there was
no great comfort for conservatism in
character of that sort, and no fact to
greatly distress or excite the Republi
cans; yet when the elections came Buf
fet was dealt with as extravagantly by
the voters as was that American man-of
wav by the sea when, in an earthquake
on the South American coast, she was
lifted from her anchorage and deposited
somewhere on the slope of the Andes
Buffet, the last stronghold of the conser
vative revolt against Thiers, went out
a now Ministry was constructed whieh
presumably represents the President’s
ideas of something more liberal than
Buffet, and against this new Ministry
the Republicans raise their voices and
denounce its appointment as a violation
of recognized constitutional principles
In all this there seems to be very great
and rapid progress in Franco in the de
velopment of republican ideas, and if
this progress were as great and sudden
as it seems wo might apprehend that our
friends over there were going too fast
and would presently tumble ever an
abyss. In fact, this appearance of rapid
progress is only due to the false indiea
tions given by tbe late Assembly, which
are confused with the fairer evidences of
the state of political opinion in the coun
try. The general elections held last
month are the first that have taken plane
in five years, and they represent the ideas
that have secured a firm hold upon the
public mind within that period—the
opinion that has steadily grown up in the
presence of all the crises and changes,
the mines and countermines of the poli
ticians, that the safest system of govern
ment for the country is the republican
system. If only a few months ago a con-
trary opinion seemed to prevail wo must
not assume that the country was then of
that opinion and has now changed to its
present opinion. That contrary opinion
was held by M. Buffet, or perhaps even
by Marshal MacM ihon. It was an indi
vidual view of what the opinirn o' the
country was, or perhaps only a presence
to cover party purposes. But the vote
corrects all and shows that it was a mis
take. Rightly interpreted the vote
ahouid also have shown to tho Marshal
that his latest ministry is also a mistake.
It was an error that may, perhaps, be
exc is>’d to the non-political Marshal
MacMahon to have given the formation
of a new ministry into the 'hands of M.
Dufaure; but an error, nevertheless, for
he was not the gentleman designated by
the circumstances. But, taking M. Du
faure for granted, that gentleman him
self has in the choice of his associates
not done justice to the opinions that were
entertained of his tact and political per
ceptions. In a political seDso it ia the
same old ship, covered with a thm coat
of paint and called by a new name. In
deed, that is the best than can be said of
it, for in some particulars it is worse than
the same old ship. It is called a Minis-
t y of tbe Left Centre. If all the repub
lican* elected to the Assembly be counted
at three hundred, they may he divided

thus:

faction of the republicans, therefore, the
Ministry is chosen, which is certainly
the pretence of the Marshal and his tup-
porters to know what the country wants
better than the country knows it, or i*
otherwise a defiance of the people. Yet
the position of this Cabinet with resard
to support in the Assembly, is not hope-
less; for all the elements of opposition
to the republicans will Dumber about two
hundred. With these and the fifty of
the Left Centre the ministry can divide
the Chamber against tbe republicans,
whose two hundred and fifty, made up in
so great n degree from the Extreme Left,
will be far from compact.
