It is said that a reconciliation is
about to be effected between Mr.
Chamberlain, the English R-idical
leader, and the Gladstone wing of the
Liberal party. It is pretty certain
that if Chamberlain and John Bright
can be brought again ioto co-operation
with Mr. Gladstone that the Liberal
party will soon again return of power.
It is said that at the last Gladstone
birth-day ball Miss Helen Gladstone
danced with her father's coa htnan.

that the hope of further reprieve

The German Reichstag is entitled to
all credit for the bold stand which it

it requires no great political sagacity
to see that the government of tiic few

ment of the inauy is the government
of tl'f* 'V ro. The tenets of liberalism
can neveragain be dislodged from i

The Inter-State Coiamercc Bill.
Tiie railroad bill, or inter-State commerce
bill, now pending before ConI
gress is as might be exp?cte<l meeting
: with a good deal of opposition. Under
the recent decision ' t*.e Jsupren-o
I Court 01 the U .med it was held
that the in -'terof Vli.-g railways,
where the line ut' ?uulx pa.v.'ul beyond
the territory of tin; Stale and into any
other belonged properly to Congress.
Vm'j vie-?7 of the law had also
been tax- n by our own Courts. The
bill be; > e Congress will therefore
I apply a-1 railroad? in the Union,
: except s ich as have their terminal
points wi:hin any given Slate. The
| subject >.? a very important one, av.cl
has givin 110 little perplexity to the
! State Legislatures. The problem is to {
devise -?>me law which shall be just to :
tlie railroad companies and which will !
compel fchem to Le just to the people, j
We believe that it can be done.
i,i Sir Stafford Xortlicote.
Tiie d;ath of Sir Stafford Nortncote
removes, lrom English contemporary
politics one of its most conspicuous
figures. By hard licks and steady
blows h rose from the nosition of a
middle -'as? Englishman to the highest
places of honor in the Kingdom. To
his credit it mast be said that with
ability far inferior to Mr. Gladstone or
to Lord Bcacoi-.tfield he managed by
persistent efforts to ri-e along with
them in the estimation of the English
people and to win ibr himself a place
in British history of all his contemporaries,
inferior only to theirs. Indeed,
in every particular, except the
ono matter cf intellectual capacity, he :
was a superior man to Beaconsfield.
The Jesson oi' his life i* worthy of
study. It shows what pluck and perseverance
may do, even when gifted
with only moderate ability. About a 1
year ago he was elevateo to the Peer- 1
sge and ;<"?: < his seat in the House of
Lords as the Earl of Iddeisleigh.
Centralization. I
One mutter in regard to the decision
of the Courts on the subject of the
regulation of railways under the interState
commerce clause of the Constitution
of flhe United. IStnteg.- which ,
seems to have ?s-?tlce, is ihe j
latest stride which is tak"n towards
" I
centralization. Another of the great
s (
industries ot the country has fallen
under the jurisdiction of Congress. ^
In this respect the importance of the
decision is second to the Dartmouth ^
College case and the case of McCuiloch
vs. The State of Maryland, onlv
C
in the lact that it follows them.
We mention this circumstance, not
to complain, for we have never thought
that centralization was fie rock upon
which we are to split. We think it
rather a matter for congratulation that }
the Constitution in its simple grandeur
5s sufficient to meet all the exigencies ^
of an ever advancing civilization.
If ihe matter of railway regulation 1
had to depend for its just settlement to ^
treaties between the several State?, the
?
subject would in all probability be left
open for a long time to come to the J
great disadvantage to the railroad and
people alike.

Prance untl Germany.
The probabilities of a renewal of
hostilities between these two powers
are growing every day extremely more
probable. Germany in taking the two
ricu^ii invwiiw* ui ami uvr- |
raiue in 1S70 placed herself in the posi- i
tion of the fellow who had the ball by :
the horns?"it was death to let go, and !
death to-hold on." But for this aet of j
unjustifiable rapacity peace would j
doubtless before this have been estab-1
lished upon a permanent basis between j
the two nation*.
France ci uld very easily have forgiven
Germany for ridding her of a
venal dynasty; to have pardoned her
for tiie larceny of these provinces
would have been quite another thing.
Germany, too, aside from the territory
and the indemnity which she received,
was vastly the gainer by the war. At!
the commencement of the strvggle I
she was little else than an ill-joined 1
confederation of petty independen-!
cies, and before its close, before the j
fall of Paris, the Prussian King-had I
!
been crowned in the Palnce of Ver- \
sallies the Empeior of reunited Germany.
In this supreme moment of
national triumph a little moderation
would have served the victors to a
splendid purpose. In taking the two
provinces Germany laid the foundation
for a future struggle; she fur-1
nished an inspiration to French patri- j
otism and a common ground upon '
which Bonapartists, Bourbons and ;
Republicans could meet. Add hence j
the first resolution which Republican ;
France made was to recover the tern- j
tory which imperial France had lost, j
It was [he resolution which every j
Frenchman made, and held to be, as j
socred and solemn as the oath which
Hannibal took, that he would never
be at peace with the Romans. Each
nation has been silently preparing for i
the final clash, which must surely i
come. It will be the struggle lor >1 j
nation's life.

The Brin*1* .-orn laws were repealed ;

circumstances hushed the babble of

the "protective principle" in the last
iegree of its absurdity.
Sir Robert and such of his party as
tie could carry with him went over to
[,'obden and Bright, the radicals as

ifforts swept the "corn laws" from the
statutes of the realm.

heretofore the tariff has been defended 1

slasses are getting too intelligent for C

han anv other man in America has 1
g

with stupid insensibility and permitted
it to siip through his fingers.
With his "commanding ability and incorruptible
patriotism" he might have
put in a protest against this betrayal
of a nation's trust that would have
rivaled the grandeur and eloquence
of "Demoslhancs on the Crown," or
Cicero*.-oration against Cataline in the
Senate of Rome. It was in vain that
the ?pirit of liberty and the heroic
traditions of the past appealed to him
to speak. He sat in criminal silence.
He should now be allowed to stay a(
home.
Where Shalt Retrenchment Rcs-in ?
In these uncomfortably tight- times
it is a very easy matter for anyone
who talks reform to get the ear of the
people. The general opinion seems to
be that any scheme for the reduction
of taxation is belter than none, and
any given scheme having once taken
hold of the popular mind is dislodged
only with difficulty. Thus it has been
proclaimed by wouid-be reformers for
the last twelve months (often with a
flourish of trumpets) that there is
much room for retrenchment in tlie
executive department of our government.
And many have, therefore,
without giving the matter any very
careful consideration, come to think
that it would have been a measure of
genuine reform for the last Legislature
to have passed a bill for something
like a horizontal reduction of salaries.
But speaking generally we may say
that it is quite certain that the salaries
of our public officials are now just as
low as is consistent with efficient administration,
and it is refreshing at
this time to find a man like General ,
Hagood. who has the frankness to
? k ft f-A i? e/\ CA oil r f V? A
iiriLic; uui aim ov#? kj\J iai an \si cnu ,
more thoughtful men of the State are
with him. But he goes on to lay
down, for retrenchment, a plan of his
own, which, it is safe to assume, will
not receivc such ready approval. And 1
vet we think there is much in it for
serious consideration.
The "leaks," he says, are to be .
fonnd in the lunatic asyium and the
Slate penitentiary; that many of the
inmates of the asylum are entirely able
to maintain themselves, and that the :
penitentiary should yield a much j
larger return to the State than it dots. 1
Xow about the asylum there is but '
little doubt as to the correctness of ihe ;
sharge that he makes, to wit, that '
many of the inmates atg^cesent supbv
the State .sltmri-d be self
supporting. Jt won't doio<Jeply with
:he Register, that we mast keep clear- |
ly before the mind the fact that itco6ts
:>ut seven and one-half cents to cach
nhabitant to maintain tJ?e institution. J
We might acquiesce iu this style of ,
argument if it was merely put for- J
ivard to silence a chronic grumbler, ]
jut we cannot assent to it when it is I
trrrriA anpQinef o raol mitQCnro Af r?*- ^
form. In such a case we must keep
nearly before the mind the fact that
lardly more than one-fifth of the inhabitants
of the State can be numbered
imong the taxpayers, and so the $81,512.53
is to be apportioned, not among
he whole number of inhabitants, but
>ti the contrary among a very small
proportion thereof. But this is not
he worst of it. It can't be divided
>ut so equally as our esteemed couemporary
seetn6 to think. Possibly
t is more convenient to charge it op
even and one-half cents or fifty cents
>er head as the case may be, but the
eal problem will not admit of this
landy sort of a solution. It turns out
hat A pays five dollars, whereas his
leighbor B escapes with a contribuion
of five cents.
~ I
I5ut we ao noc iniiiK inai me remeay 7
uggested by General Hagood, of re- 1
airing" each county to support its own \
tisane, would prove an adequate one. j_
Vs observed by 1 he Register the change ^
7onld likely operate against the poor
nd friendless rather than against those ti
rith influential friends. ?
We do think, however, that if it be t<
rne that any considerable proportion
i the i jmates of the asylum are able
a pay their own way, the Legislature
light devise some scheme to ascertain
lie fact, and being in possession of the iiformation,
could at lea3t try to adopt t
?tter measures of correction.
