A) the pridclpal duty Of the position will be the delivery. of an ••ration, the Incumbent's new office 'will not compel him to neglect any of the arduous toil incidental to his di­ plomatic position. As a compllmentQto -American scholarship, however, and an Indication of good feeling toward the TJnltod States and our principle rep­ resentee in England, the election had * pleasing significance which firty mil- Ken Americans may enjoy with Mr towel!. The University of St. An­ drew's Is the oldest in Scotland, hav l»8 been founded in 1411. The present rector is Sir Theodore Martin, author #* the life of the Prince Cohsort, and ibany men of eminence have held the position.

There is Arthur, who may aspire to' be his own ;iftccessor, and he is well spoken of by - iiie Republicans generally, and Edmund Of Vermont, and Gen. Logan of this . Mate, and thit old her). Gen.

Of course the result of the Speaker­ ship contest does not satisfy all the ii'lements of the poer old Democratic ^arty, and it will not be surprising if ^e eliall find that seeds of future trou- - <fJ»le have been sown. It is an or.deub- : ||ed faet that Mr. Carlisle more nearly Represents the sentinjents ef the great "-;:-^|aajority of his party than any of the ^>ther candidates, but there were some -- ^werJui Influeuees hroHght' to bear inst hi in. ami the fight meant a good leal more than merely the choice of a |uan tO'preside over a llouse. Several §amlidatee for th£ Presidency wer« interested In it, and there were rail- jray corporations and other large in­ terests behind, to say nothing of the 4rouble»ome tariff question underlying "ft all. But the raid of "the solid South" lipon all the positions to be disposed *4+ from tlie Speakership down, was ian illustration of what we might ex­ pect to see in tlte future should the Democratic party everSuceeed in elect­ ing a President. That these hungry representatives of a war-impoverished •ection did net make a clean sweep is not their fault. 9 A <11,ANCR AT HUROPK, Twelve years have gone«ince the 4terce light between France and Ger- ninny^ dnt Europe i^ no nearer assur«d quietude than it was at the close ef that War. The circle of power of the German ulianculor Is ht preseut so ex­ tensive that It may safely be compared with that of the first Napoleon. Aus lriii ha# for a number of vear3 sailed nnder the German flag. Recent events shews that Italy has Joined fortunes with the German empire, and Spain and Portugal are likely to follow. The next great power, England, Is quiet and glad to be alone, while Russia Is so occupied with straightening Its own home aftalrs and trying to root out nihilism, that !t exercises but little Influence on the alt nation of things In the old continent. But France is completely Isolated. The very condition of this once power­ ful and mighty country, unstable, un­ safe and incomplete, which Is the cause Of Its preseut Isolation, Is an element of danger. 'lira similar manner, as oc­ curred during the latter years of the last century, hundreds of aggressive spirits ef the second rate are quarreling with each other, and ir© one seems sufllcientlv powerful to prevail. Her smart editors, who accused the Ital­ ian king of pocketing the, money con­ tributed by French for the Ischiasnfier- eres, have caused King Humbert to become an aggressive enemy#- while a French inobha* made Spain an enemy ready to strike at tne flr?t favorable opportunity. The news to-day indicates that hostilities between her and China can not much longer be p ostponed unless ^ther nations Intefere. No toiiht. France wishes they would, but the^ rumors that England, Russia and the United States would constitute a board of arbitration not only lacks con­ firmation, but does not seem possible on our part at least, as It has been the policy of the present administration to keep out of &Jl foreign quarrel, even where our own Interests were Involved,' « Did France possess moderation, that virtue so necessary for the maintenance of a republican form of government, there would nor be such a mass of fer­ menting fanaticism boiling in that pot frem which so many esplesions have heretofore come. The caisls is near. Gambetta: la gone and so Is Thiers, An internal strife is raging and a great war is about to be commenced with France unprepared for it, and not a friendly nation to help her ont of the difficulty. It invited the opposition of England by its course at Madagascar, when the good will of that nation should have been its first desire. If ever the French republic needled a leader. It Is new. Yet it. may escape the darger which now threatens it without a leader. The French are queer people and difficult to under­ stand. There is no safety in tnaking any predictions as to what they will do. More than once they have recov- ersd from deathlike lethargy and overcome all their adversaries Perhaps they can do It again, but it does not look pessiple. The French republic has reached the j imping-oft place. I Cf?OOSRIS3, Ladies' and Gents' Underwear, Ladios' and Gents' Gossamers, Ladiea' and Gents' Gloves and Mittens, Ladies' and Gents' Hosiery.

Smith D. Atkins, we clip the fol­ lowing: The Chicago Evening Journal says: In reply to a reporter Governor Ham­ ilton said that he had never been an Arthur man..but If the Republican can­ didate for the Presidency must come from the east, he thought Arthur was as good a choiee as could be made. He is. however, in favor »f a western man. and expressed his preference for Gen. Logan's nomination. He thinks Logan would carry the soldier vote Sfdid. It is unquestionably *rne that President Arthur has grown rapidly In the esti­ mation of the Itepiihiicaus of the west. Hid administration is spoken of as ad­ mirable. one of the cleanest and wisest of late years. Without any of the brass band profusion* and tlop-doodle of tlavee. President Arthur is giving the country a quiet, clean, honest ad­ ministration, and Is growing as a Pres­ idential candidate to sneceei.1 himself. But in Illinois, Gen. John A. Logan leads the list, and ought to be, and probably will be, supported for Presi­ dent In the next Republican National Convention. If black Jack Logan is nominated for President he will arouse an enthusiasm among the rank and tile similar to that which carried Harrison into the Presidency in 1840. The ablest volunteer soldier of the late war, he was among the bravest of the brave, and the old veterans would work and vote for him with an enthusiasm no other candidate could begin to awaken But he has stronger claims to the Pres Ideney. Iti publ^e life always IiIr en tire career has been pure and clean. In a Presidential contest, his bitterest foe could find no blot upon Senator Logan's record. He has never been mixed up in speculative schemes, and is«o poor that lie cannot maintain a house of his own in Washington, and lives at a private boarding house. He has espoufed and ably defended the jHght n'ule of every great public ques­ tion tliat lias arisen since 1861. With a brilliant record as a soldier and *tates- nian. lie would, as a candidate for Pres­ ident, gather strength like a rolling snow-ball from the day of his nomine tion until his triumphant election.
