The tax levy lor state purpose*
shown an Increase of just 1 mill over

constant growth of-the tendency to

There ie no lack of wise and expert- .
enoed statesmen who could represent
the United Stales faithfully and well
at the court of St James. But to find
one rich enough—that is the problem
which pussies the executive in casting
about for a successor to . Ambassador
Hay, Our diplomatic service in tbe
British oapttal must be committed to
tbo care of some one who can "meet
tbs social requirement* in England,"
and with do nonsense of republican
simplicity about him. —Philadelphia

Our dispatches show that General
Wheeler is going into tbe investigation
business, and wo can safely promise a
complete job. II there ie anything in
tbe future which can be predicted with
absolute confidence It Is that what Joe
Wheeler starts in to do will be com
pleted. If ho shows the extent and
cause of tbe gross mismanagement
which has attended tbe medical branch
of thio war bo will have done a service
far beyond what he or any other man
could do by fighting.—Montgomery
