the majority of the readers of these

emphatically that these ^materials,

the matter, it is afoot suffieiently pa

anuses to bo respectable is sustained by
aw* patronage of the great mass ot

of both town and country, and not by
the low, Tieious or unlettered. Every
man has aright to ask that the daily

By too death of Commodore Matthew
9. Maury, the ranks ef American men
of aeisntifc genius have lost one who
wan at one time among oar brightest
lights aa an original worker.
A|Yirginian by birth, he wss bred
by the U. S. Navy, and long received
that position, honor, emolument, and
ee-operation from the government,
without whioh hie labors, however me*
ritonous, must have failed of aehieving
the sasosse whieh so constantly attend
ed these. It is in view of tho long
and oordial support aid hearty praise
that tho people and the government
of the United States habitually eon
ferred upon him, that we eennet help
recalling seane ei tho bitterness which
wo shared with others against this man
of science twelve years ago, when in
the hour of hie country's peril he vio*
Isted his oaths, stole or destroyed val
uable scientific material belonging te
the nation, and going over to the reb
els, strove in every wsy to facilitate the
progress of the rebel power against the
general government.
But these things must be forgotten,
nnd it remains to ootiee his speoisl
work, Perhepa no one person between
1840 nnd 1860 did so much to devel
oped the eeienees of meteorology and
hydrography aa he, and bis "Paths
and Bwptbs of the Se«," marine charts
etc., will long stand as monuments of
hie wide study and careful investiga
tion of those phenomena whose knowl
edge is of sooh great importance to tbe
mariner, and no interesting to the lib
eral student of nature. Maury's name
willl long claim honor for the luvtre it
hesshed on American reseeroh. HeStrong
was 87 years eld.

The following from the St. Paul
Press is in the same direotion aa our
remarks last week on the prespecte of
France, and like all the editorial mat
ter in the iVe«, well worth reading:
"Herein is developed one of tho fa-struotion,"
tal weaknesses whioh enter into the
constitution of every Republican con
stitutional government whioh haa yet
been attempted io Franoe and the
contrast with the work aooomphnhed
by the founders of our government ran*
den it still mora conspicuous. French

It need not surprise ue if the
ephemeral odifioe attempted to bo rear
ed by men that contemplate only their
own personal importance is swept away
by the machinations of adverse parti*
aaas, or if a republic with so feeble a
foundation should go down in tho first
conflict. While Thiers has been inter
posing silly objections, tho two greet
parties supporting moaarohy, tho Or
leanists and the Bourbons, have eon*
leased and agreed to recognise the
Count of Chambord as thair loader.
The ooalitioo cannot but be strength
ened by the death of Louia Napoleon
the eoosequent demoralisation of
imperialist faotion. So that before
Thiere haa dene with his senssless
quarrels regarding his own preroga*
rives, it may happen thnt ho will bo
act aside altogether, and that the na*
tional assembly will proclaim the Coant
of Chambord to bo king of Franoe.
Stranger thinga have happened, oven
within tho later momorios of tho his
torian of the Consulate and tho Em
pire.
THB latent from Bussie in regard to
the Shiran question is that the Rus
sians are in a high state of excitement
over the accounts of cruelties enacted
by the Shirans on the Russians who
have fallen into their banes, and urn
heartily in favor of an expedition
against the Shiva nnd demand exem
plary punishment. Shivaa military
preparations for campaign are being
pushed forward. The total foroe will
aumber 50,000 men. The Prince nnd
others nt high rank are volunteering to
accompany the army.

Ma. EDITOR—There Iks before me

dated nt St. Paul, Dee. 81.
1872. Addressed "To His Excellency
Gov. Horace Austin," nnd signed "G.

cur that criticism,toIt mild or sharp,
whioh those they serve or represent
advisable to bcotow upon
them, still more ana claim it sodrug
whoa they soak office nt dilligeotly as
did Mr. Wilson, nnd against aueh wide
spread and vigorous opposition. It will
not be denied thnt our publio offioers
hold their situstions really for tho good
of tho State and not aa they may often
feel, for their own personal enrioh*
ment, nnd that mere oharitable motives
are not to prevail with ue in their be
half. We demand tho beat material
and ore willing to pay a good price.
With this view, candid inspection
must always be appropriate.
Though Mr. Smith is hardly the
oool headed erittie wo might desire—
and we have aeon some exhibitions of
his intemperate seal in sohool circles
before—still the faota ho states are em*
phatie, and hie eumming. up is suffi

seams not unkind, nor yet unwise,toaid
in laying it before the publio. Tho body
of tho pamphlet sustains nt least part
of these four reasons
