The majority, with a friendly presiding officer, will generally pull through in the face of a deficiency of commanding leader* ship, and the minority, possessing strong, able leaders, will be able to hold them pretty level. The question of lcadci*hip in a legisla tive or deliberative body i* one that cannot well be settled by caucus agree ment. It aettle* iUelf. The man who possesses he teef, the ability and the other gifts of nature which constitute the leader will gradually nunc to the front ami bo recognized, uo mutter who clue may bo striving for the position.

No question ever existed as to the leader- ship of Adams, Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Dou glas, htepliens, Thurman and Maine when they were In congress. There is a fine engrav ing still extant, entitled "The Culled States senate in 1850.” It reurescuts Heni.v Clay in hia famous attitude, ad- diming the senate on the compromise measures.

The following appointments have been mado ur.dcr the new administration: « EARL SlIiNEY, lord steward of the queen's household. ARNOLD MOBLEY, patronage secretary. CHARLES RUSSELL, attorney general. The composition of the new cabinet has caused grout surprise. It is thought to show marks of a compromise. No dcfiuitcapi>omtn)onl8 to tho minor offices Lave been announced. The Daily Nows con sider* the new ministry a strong one, and es pecially npprovea of the appointment of tho earl of Rostbcrry and John Morley. It say the selection of the carl of Kimberly for the Indian secretaryship is tho only choice that is likely to meet with negative approval. Tho absence of Lord Harrington from tho cabinet, the News says, is a matter of regret, which may, however, at uo distant date be renewed. In the event of the defeat of John Morley iu the election at Newcastle, Mr. Paruoll oilers to find him :i constituency in Ireland. The Btandard says: "Gladstone, in forming his cabinet lias made the host of a bad situa tion. The members are men of undoubted ability. The election, of Fail Rosebery for the post of secretary of foreign affairs was tho best that could bo made, and promises well for thegcod will of Germany.

Tho government hopes to flud a safer aud more effectual method than coercion to remedy the social troubles. London, February 1.—The newspaper* of Ireland generally interpret tho apitointmont of Mr. John Morley as chief secretary for Ire land, to mean tho transfer of power to tho Irish rulers, but they say tbo precedents warn the I'Coplc against being too sauguiuc. The following is cue of tbo sen tences contained iu tho address, and one which indicates pretty plainly the outlines of tho Irinli policy decided upon by Mr. Gladstone: "Although tho difficulties of the task tuako it imposHiblo to anticipate tho success w ith confidence, wo shall draw comfort front the knowledge that we aro engaged in a groat work of peace " London, February 7.—The following addi tional appointments have been made under the ucw administration: chanccRor of the duchy of Lancaster—Edward llcucage.

The appointment of Broadhurst as under home secretary, has caused a sensation iu po- litiuri circles, that gentleman being tho first woiVmg mau that has ever risen to tho min- birr.

It is eKtunatcd that the crown jewels to l>c sold will produce 10.000,000. Those of his toric interest will go to the Louvre collection. Gems of artistic and educational interest, val ued at 13,000,000 francs w ill be delivered to tho museum and school of mines. The imperial crown and swoiris that belonged to I.ouisX VIII, and the dauphin will be melted, iu ordut to pre*cut the possibility of their falliug into the hands of Showmen. I’Aitts, February t.—Nearly all the workers in muslin, lace, calico, merino, c ishmero aad table linen manufactories at St. ljuentere, do* |arti»cnt ofAlsn, are on a strike, and a ma jority of the factories ate closed. Today th-i men cn the strike are parading the streets, inciting the mobs agaitist the shop masters. Tho situation is regarded as very dangerous, and the authorities are taking military precau- tic ns. to avoid a riot. Fauik, February d.—The striking fact>ry operatives at fct. Qucntiou are erecting barri* ctdts in the stru ts of that city, and a conflict b« tween the military and tho strikers b be lieved imminent. Fa bis, February tf.—'The suppose*! murder er of M. Rarrviv.e, of the department of Ourc, who w as kille«l in a railway carriage compvrt- ment while returning to Kvereux from raris, willr $1,000 in his pockets, on January 1 Itb, has been arrested. It will lie remembered that when the traiu started frem Paris, a man asked the guard if M. Barteme was at*oard. and when ausrorcl in the affinuativc. purchased a ticket and went cn the same train. A man answering this person's description left the train at Xante*- Mir->eiuc before the murder was discovered.

The marquis Salisbury today received* d<} ututicn «f unemployed workmen, who called to urge upon him the necessity exbtiux for government help. Lord Salisbury told tho meu that he considered thequeetiou they ^re* retried mote M-iious than the Irish questiou. lie, however, denounced the policy iu voguo nrcoug foreign gc'vernments of fostering iu- du» tries by the granting of bounties front tho \ iridic tira-ury. eaRiug it false political econ- etny. lu conclusion the ex-premier de lated that statesmen am! pxrliameut must eihs to < on front tho question of how host to solve tho rroblem of relieving the preaent general dis tress. It wss growing while population was increasing and caused emigritiou. Govern mental support of private enterprises might be a good way to afford temporary relief, and the promotion of public works might be another. Archbishop Oroke writes to the Statist in ap proval of the scheme ventilated in that publi cation to buy out tbe Irish landlords. I The archbishop believes that the rental ojfthe whole of Ireland is under 7,000,000 pounds; further, that m tbe Irish tenant farmerswi net accept a scheme giving the landlord*an / thing like twenty years rent purchas . he thinks, that the estimate I of 1( 0,fast,uiO pounds required is too high $ fi :• ure. He believes that tbe present imneri «1 expenditnre in Ireland, 4,000,000 ponnqs,'1« ample to meet the interest on the consols re quired for the purchase of the land. The Irish' leaders do not ask for confiscation, onlyi fair play. They don’t dream of separation from England. Hplritualism In Germany. Berlin, February 2.—8p!ritualism seei flourish in north Bohemia, notably a little vil Inge called Jcstrebitz, where a club meetsireg ularlv to indulge In table turning and Other mystic amusements. The members of the dub alzo dabble In exorcisms. A woman nshied Gebcrt, afflicted with religious mania, lately brought her husband and father-in-law to Jestrcbitz to have two devils to cast out* While waiting for the operation to‘succeed she herself lodged with the president of the club and attended the nightly spiritualistic meetings. At the end of three days sh# be came raving iuad. upon which the club, (con cluding that she also was possessed of the devil, bound her hand and foot and exorcised her. For this interference with the lilierty of the subject three members have just been prosecuted and sent to prison. J DO(iS AS SENTINELS. The German minister of war ha* given or ders that a number of dogs bo trained with a view to testing the value of services they might possibly render to sentinels engaged iu keeping guard during the night. It is believ ed that by the help of these sagacious animals outposts would be far less liable snrpisc. as the dogs wonld ways give notice of tho approach of theenomy much earlier than it could be detected by tbe sentinel without such assistance. This new departure in the German army is suggested, by an incident which occurred in the course of last year’s operations among tbe British forces in the Soudan, when a dog, like the geese at the rapitol of ancient Rome, gave notice of a surprise by the enemy. lll*nia roll's 1'oUnIi Policy. Berlin, February 2.—The Polish policy of Bismarck lias produced general excitement throughout Germany and Austria. The im mense Lnbricnski estate, containing about 200,000 acres, one of the largest estates in Prussia, Js offered for sjiJo next April. The inhabitants of the estate have for years been mainly Poles, and tbe edict of expulsion by forcibly removing tho tenantry qnd depriving the estate of its revenues has thrown it upon the market. Bismarck’s announced policy of purchasing for crown all the real estate owned by the Polish nobles and gentry in Prussia for re-salo to German colonists is opportune for the present proprietors of the Luhrienski lands, for at any ordinary sale the property must have gone at bankrupt prices. Bismarck does not intend to take advantage of the ex pulsions to buy tho land in Posen cheap, but means to pay lairly for it, and his land tag decla rations have, in fact, served to keep up values by assuring a market. Addressee of sympathy have bcou sent Bis marck by Gcrmansin every partof flic empire, and many have already reached him from people in tbe Austrian rcichsratli. Headed by tho German national deputy, Herr Knabe, hat also signed a similar memorial of congratula tion. The Anttrian-German club of Vienna, however, have unanimously denounced the German chancellor's treatment of tho Poles. IJuropenu Gossip. Liverpool, February 1,—A mutiny occur red today among tho lads on the reformatory ship Clarence, which is lying iu the Mcrsoy. At a preconcerted signal, tho lads in a body at tacked the officers with belaying pins, fire arms and other weapons. Tho officers drew their revolver* and fired into the mutinous crowd, and tried in vain to force them to lay down their weapons aud return to their places. The boys continued their assault, and at last compelled tho officers to seek shelter. The lads then lowered tho boats into which they crowd ed, and tho boatA drifted down the stream with the tide. Tho Clarence's officers, after the departure of the boys ntsdo signals to the authorities on "shore, and soon several boats filled with police put out aud called upon tho boys to surrender. The youngsters deeming resistance useless, gave up and were taken bock to the ship. The ringleaders wore placed in irons. Eighteen lads and two officers rcccivod wound* in the fight.
