Seney, of the Filth Ohio district, has been confidently counted as an opponent of the Mills bill and had announced biniself at soeb. On laat Thursday bis district met in cooreatioo ard af ter passing the strongest kind of tariff reform resolutions, explicitly tiroring ILe MiUa bill, made all the candidates for nomination »we*r that they weald stand upon that platform if elected. Upon bis decla ration that be would support the Mills bill, Secey was renominated npon tbe second balot. While it would seem that it might hate been better to nominate a man more in harmony with the principles of bis party, yet it moat be remembered that this abrdwd mote secures one more rote for the reformers in the present congress, where it rn .y be rooat, needed If Seney goes back apoa urn word be knows that he will be defeated for the.text hod'*.

IQgeraoll behead is a wonderful man, and, all controversy, he is the supreme master of the English lan¬ guage. In the years gone by ho was the victim of an itching for office, and fixed his eye on the guber natorial chair of the Sucker state, seeking the nomination before the republican convention. Bat tiis in— fidel views was the bete noire which frightened the convention, and “Bob” was beaten. A few days after his defeat the p!o quant iacouoclsst and boastful agnostic was in a crowded passenger coach, and feeliogsore over bis un- successful effort to win the noraina- tion, which would have been equival l«nut» an election, for the state waa overwhelmingly republican, he turned himself loose and uncorking the vials of his wrath, began a lurid arraignment of Christianity for its superstitious teachings and unfound¬ ed claims to divine origin. “What has Christianity ever done for Illi¬ nois?” he demanded of bis astonished, but electrified, fellow passenger-. Hardly a moment intervened be lween the question and the cutting answer, which came in a shrill voice a few teats away. “It kept Bob Ingeraoll from being governor of Uli nois,” said the voice, which belong ed to a little woman vvbose quick wit •od JGoldness at once wen profound tat admiration. The great infidel was crushed.

The burden rf the Keonctnisl’s description is the over¬ whelming importance of the pres;den tial if-. in our syatem, the aucc.-a- sionsor prospect thereof affecting question* of eomaercia! economy •i,d diplooucy abroad very palpably as well as all commsreia’, financial •ud social interest* at teow *n J abroad. The Economist finds an ex ample of its influence in diplomat. aAairs in the pending Fisheries Trea ty. The weight of public opinion is in favor of the Treaty, the Pres. Jer,t and Secretary of State approve and accept it, the Canadian Parliament favorably ratified it, but both parties have severally decided by common consent or tacit understanding to %<J jotim it* coaaideratioa unit! the next session. Both parties are afraid of offending the Irish vote, which is supposed to be hostile to that or any other token of amity between the United States and England. So the Republican papers for once in the course of time cordially eo-eperate with the Democratic press in reliev¬ ing a Democratic Administration o?a considerable riss—a risk much greater than that which they recog¬ nized in the last campaign in “Rum, Romanism and Rebellion.” They can’t oppose the treaty without stul¬ tification, and they can’t rote for it for fear of Irish displeasure. Enlarging with the vista as it opens the Economist’s opinions go to this length: The presidential office has grown with the growth of the country until it is now one of the most important ou earth. Every country, even Gt-r many, iuno n affected by the diploma cy of the United .States ar.d that di plomacy is mainly guided 1 y the de cisioDs o! the Presided, who is at this moment .resolving the great fish erics question with Great Britain, a serious question as to Samoa with the Empira of Germany, the whole question of Chinese emigration with tb9 Government of Pekin, and a vital question of consular rights with tbe Saltan of Morocco, and r.exs week have to decide whether the Union shall or shall not produce much financial ruin in Pari.-, and per haps shake tbs Republic by its deal itgs with M.
