place in Germany, and though the revela

the new Empire, they are none the less P
caluenlated to awaken serious resections as e
to the stability and coherence of a State fI
which already presents symptoms of in. o
tarnal disquiet and disunion so numerous
and-so profound. It appears that it is the
Government of Berlin that we have to a
lthak for the disclosure. Anxious to learn m
the preiese nature of the popular support ti
which at the late election was rendered to bJ
the various parties in the struggle, the an- o0
thortlies issued instructions to the local of
a ministrations throughout the Empire to in

the relative strength of party feeling as bel

In the first place we learn that, of the
eight millions and a half who in Germany 1
constitute the Parliamentary electorate, ke,
hardly more than live millions and a for
quarter went to the polls at the last eleo- oto
Eon on behalf of any party whatever. uni
This deficit, as we may call it, of three livi
millions and a quarter most form a serious
item in any calculations as to the future ear
strength of parties. At present it is suffi- is t
dent to observe that not all the incite
ments and exhortations of the Government sea
and of the Opposition were able to induce gal,
this enormous inert proportion of the pop- vas,
elation to bestow any attention upon sou
politics. The consideration of the position aod
is which the Government and Opposition the
stand in the absence of these three millions sea
and a quarter will be found to deepen the con'
sentiments that with this "residuum" lies Uns
1s the future the disposal of the public tim
destinies. Any serious change of opinion; cas
or any strong impulse leading these torpid stem
millions to throw aside their torpor would agi
strangely shift the balance of power in The
Germany. As it is, the balance of power is befe
unasteady enough, nor can we find anything the
better suited to Illustrate the condition of
? German politics than the parallel plight of gre
Spanish factions and parties in the Cortes plia
