In England mem- vers of Parliament who accept office under the Crown vaento thalr seats by’ such reoeptance. ‘Those who wish to retain’ sents Jn Parilament and hold office at the snmoytime must therefore feck reviectiou, It is not unlikely that many of the Ministers will experience considerable difi- culty in scouring a return, This will cortainly be the.enso In Ireland, where the peoplo, whothor rightly or wrongly, hold that membors ‘by accepting pince sacrifice their Independence and destroy much of tholr usefuincss, TneEnaw, King of Burmah, is not dend, and more's tho pity.

Tho polige force of that city is lnrgely composed of thugs, who obtain appuint- mentasn reward for political sorviocs. Under cover of authority these fellows have become tho most dangerous class of the community, en- enging in frequent brawls and aiding and nbetting tho most notorious cracksmen and shouldor-hittors of tho clty.

THE DEMOCRATIC QUANDARY, Lowever perplexing the Republican altun- tion may bo nto the outcome of tho Presi- dentint contest, it is a bed of roses as com- pared with tho Democratic quandary, The Republicans are merely puzzled to decile whieh {s tho most advisable of some three courses that are open to them, and there is already o certain definitness about the re- sult. There are those who belleve that Gen, Grant's nomination Is practically assured, Others contend that the third-termers will not develop the requisit strength to nominate their candidate on the first batlot, and thmt 8 defection will follow which will result in the nomination of Senator Binine. ‘There Is afhird class consisting of those who think that the contest between the ex-Prestident’s adherents and Senator Binine’s following will be so close that the friends of both aspl- rants will agree to unite upon a third per- son. All Republicans—Stalwarts, Conserv- atives, and Libernls—are of opinion that, in case of a stubborn conflict over the {wo most conspicuous candidates, the prize will fall into the hands of Mr. Washburne or Senntor Edmunds, with the chances largely in favor of the former; and there 1s no dis- sent to tho prediction that the nomination of elther of thase two gentlemen will develop the full strength and cordint support of the mink and file of the party. ‘The result, of course, is still doubtful, But on the general record of the party every Republican is sat- isfied, and all fs serene. ‘The Democrats, on the other Land, ato sorely porplexod by varions circumstances whieh promtse to embarrass them no matter what the result of thelr Convention may be. There is a general feeling in the party that | Mr. ‘Tilden has a mortgage on the nomina- tlon, This produces the samo sort of dis- comfort which an individual experiences who has a debt hanging over him which he tg convineed he cannot pay with- out bankrupting himself, Mr. Tilden hing given no sign that he intends to relieve the Democratic party of the embarrassment of his presence. His seizure and management of the New York Convention, on the con- trary, have Indicated his purposo to urge his cluims to the last. He 1s reported to have more wealth than ever before, and he dem- onerated in 1876 his willingness to employ the large cash means at command to secure tho nomination and assist In his campaign, Te is not willing to budge, and the Deno- crats who are opposed to him scem to be powerless to remove him out of the way, not- withstanding their numbers and their distri- button over the entire country. They feel that thoy cannot elect Tilden, but their con- viction is almost equally strong that they cannot elect anybody elso without ‘Tilden’s active coBperation. Even if it be conceded that the opposition to Tilden inside tho Democratic party, as- sisted by tho two-thirds rule which governs that party, shall prove adequate to his rejeo- tion, then the Democrats are all at sen. ‘They do not seem to be able to get one strong man out of a oumber of commonplace or weak men, ‘Tho aspirants for tha nomina- tion are almost as numerous as tho party Itself, The “dark horses” include every variety of shading, but every one of them develops, on examination, some blemish that makes ‘him unnvailable, Hancock, who fs nowspapors call fora change.

If it be assumed that the Democratic party, after going through the most desperate throes of parturition, shall at Inst be do- livored of a candidate who will not excite any active antagonism in tho prrty, then the managers will bo confronted with dreadful | obstacles in the way of making up a plat- form. ‘They. haye no strong National issues toselze upon, ‘They stand {upon Statesu- | premacy ground, but they will hardly dare $o procinim it as the basis of a Presidential campnign after having folled to vindicate it in a four-years’ war, Thora is no Greon- | back sentineut for them to propitiate, for silver remonetization and the success of the resumption polley have eltminated all practical dispute as to the currency. The proposed repenl of the Nationil ElectiogJaws 4s but one feature of the State-supromacy policy, and tho experlence whlch the Demo- erats lad with thig issue after the extra nes | sion of Inst summer has not encouraged thein tomake It prominent in any future appenl for popular votes. ‘The records of the pres- ent Congfeis will not furnish any guarantee . of Democratic capacity to commond the party | to the confidence of the people, ‘The Demo- erate have no past within the erience of | the greatinass of the present ‘yoters which they can summon to their ald with pride or effect. ‘hey aro in gront trouble to find a | suitable candidate, but even if they should settle their difidultics in this respect thoy will be in a still worse plight to agreo-upon any basis for convincing the people that their party should bo intrusted with supreme con- trol of all branches of the Government, ‘Tho Demoorats will dind ‘the capipalgn at | 1880 much more serous work in any event than was that of 187, The North is now fully warned of the attitude of the "Bolld* "Sonth,’"—a warnjng that had not been bu- pressed upon the country four years agoin a party bearing to the ‘samo extent as now, Since the Southern States have virtually.do- clared that the Republican candidate shall not rocolve & single Electoral vote from that whole seotion, the North will put forth addl- | tional efforts to protect itself fromthe monaco ‘raves, that, with the Suge of Gramoroy Park us | of aggressive sectlonallsm. a vandidute, Now Yprk Stato would be lost to tho Democragy, and thoy aro now willing to sup- port the most avalluble candidate, Lowever, us ‘wo bave proviousty statod, it ts useloes to pro- dict the outcome-of a Democratic Convention.

There was a general feeling that n change of party might fn some unexplained way bring relict to the universal fnancial depression, and that In any “Qnse matters could not be more aggravated. All this was peculiarly faverable to the Democratic pretensions fn 1870, and undoubtedly swelled the vote which Mr, Tilden received enormously. This year, however, the business sentiment of the coun- tryis satisfied with things ns thoy are, and dreads a change. Boney-is plenty, spectia- tion Is active, prices‘ire booming, wages are good, the factories are running on full time, rallrond building exceeds nll precedent, merchants tro, busy, the mining, transporta- tion, agricultural, and industrial interests are all thriving,—nnd the proffer of a change in partics, which is all the Democrats can hold out to the country, is the very worst promiso they could possibly make. Altogether, the Democratic managers will ve put to tholr wits’ end, first to settle their own family troubles, and then, if they suc: eced.in doing that, to convince the American people that there is any sufficient reason for experimenting with their doubtful capacity for governing tho country. ee THE SUNDAY. LAW IN LOUISVILLE, Tho farce. which has been going on in Louisville during the past two-or three days shows that the enforcement of the new Sun- day laws bins reached the redtctlo ud ab- surdum, ‘The teetotal people and other strict Sabbatarfans having broughta pressure .to bear upon the Mayor for the purpose of in- dueing him to enforce the new stringent Sunday law, that functlonary took the inw as he found ff, and enforced It to the letter. As the law forbids any work or service what- ever on Sunday for which pay is received, except in the cnse of Israelites who observe Saturday as their Sabbath, tis police made a very comprehensive and motley sweep of victims, embracing delegations from every class in society, ‘Tho lst, as printed in tho papers of that clty, 1g curlous one. It In- eludes suloonkeepers, brewers, imilkmen, express and dray drivers, restuurant and hotel keepers, hackmen, — horse- enr employés, livery-stable men, publishers of newspapers and printers, druggists, newsboys, bootblacks, barbers, tobarece- dealers, retail butchers, family grocers, cof- fec-house keepers, innumerable shopkeep- ers, orgnnists, sextons, choirs, and ministers, all-of whom were working for pny, and all of whom consequently were violating the Sun- day law, nnd technically amenable toits penal- ties. Ifthe Inw had been carried outto its fullest extent, it would have Inyaded almost every family, and swopt the servants into Ils drag-not, and every man employed in public conveyances that took poople to church, Of course the whole thing is impracticable, but it Is none the less legal, and oyery one of the crowd, minister or saloonkeeper, is tech- nically Mable under the Jaw as it stands; but atthe same time, practically, the law has not been enforced, because It would bea still greaterfarce to punish the offenders, and a farce which would not bo endured by the community which makes tbe laws. What- ever views may be ehtertulned of the even-handed snd impartial conduct of tho Mayor will be -immatorial; it hos at leost shown that the Jaw is a brutum fulmen, and ne such It will have to be annulled and something else sub- stituted inits place. It tins shown, first, the- uttor folly of enneting Icgislation not sulted to the organization, habits, and daily life of large elties; and, second, the equal folly of trying to enforce so-called Sunday logisla- tlon as dt mow stande, '’he Supreme Court of Indinna has just delivered an important decision which bears upon this very polut Tho appellant, Mr, Siducy A. Carver, was convicted -in the lower Courts of desecrating tho Sabbath by selling two cigurs from a hotel-stand to one Stagg. ‘Tho indictment was based upon a statute forbidding all sorts of avocatlons “works.of charity and of necessity only ex- cepted,” on the Sabbath. The Court, after reviewing the evidence, found that as keoping o hotel on Sunday in the same way that it {s kept on o weok day Is not unlawful, “ it follows that if ahotel keeps a cigar stand, which isa part of Its cstablidhment, from which it sells clgars to its guests, boarders, aud customers on aweek day, to sell cigurs from the same stand ‘In the enino way on Sunday, Is not un- Jawful.’ “Indeed,” says the Court, “we seo uo difference legally between the act of selling a cigar under such circumstances and the act of furnishing. a cup of ten or coffee, a meni of victuals, or supplying any other dafly want to o customer, on Sunday, tor pay.” In the course of the decision there are two polnts made by the Court which haye a db | rect bearing upon all Sunday logisintion. ‘Phe first of these, ‘a definition of the inher | ent qualities and conditions of Jaws, is as tullows: 1 Tho.condition of a country, tho form of its gnverumeut, the history of ita Inhubituuts, tholr pursuits, genural intelligence, modes ot ‘fo, manners, nud habits, enter into tho constrio- ton of laws made te govern them; and luwa aro | not made so much for their abstract perfection | as fortholr Lat ie tho people they gov- | ern.

The new ordinance Is supposed to have been formed sonstoavold the legal objections found in the first one by the Appelinte Court. Tho first ordinance granted the right of way to Van Buren street, and the new one limite tt to Harrison street. Upon the final vote in the Counell the only Aldermen voting against It were the four representaiives of the First and Seeond Wards, In an article on this subject, published in ‘Tre Tinsusr on Sunday ast, the attention of the city authorities was called to the re- cent verdict in tho case of Shepard ugainst the city, growing out of the condemnation of Innd inken for opentng, Dearborn street. ‘Under the deciston in that case, should it be affirmed by the Supreme Court, the city will be held as having tuken the land condemned for the strect opening and responsible to the owners for the adjudged vatue thereof, ‘Tun ‘Turnune warned the Council that the vor- dict in the Shepard case was n notice. of possible Mability-on the part of the city, and iit in granting this right of way over that samo Jand the city shoutd protect itself against future responsibility, Assuming that the Mayor and legal oficers of the city, ns woll ns tho Connell, must have found sufficient protec- tlon In the ordinance ns framed to keep the city harmless in the future, wo further ns- sume that all possible cluim against the city for the $1,000,000 damnges awarded to tho property has been accepted by the Railway Company. ‘Thero has been a strenuous effort made to prevent this railway coming north of Twelfth street, and strong appeals have been made by owners of property on Clark and State streets to have it stopped at Twelfth street, “However strongly personal dnter- ests may bo urged against the eneronch- ments of public improvements and the de- mands of, trade and commerce, still private interests must in such enses yleld, ‘Tho admission of: another trunk Uno to tho city, opening up anew and extended system of communication with the Eastern States and Canada, Is a mntter affecting the business and prosperity of the whole elty, and “adding to the yalue of all property in all parts of Chicago, The addition of another grent trunk road to the rail communications of tho elty hag nvalue which ean hardly be com- puted.

It will bring to the eity many additional inillions of property to be sold, and will take away in return as many millions of other property in exebange. The effects of such an addition to-our rail facilities will bo felt all over the city by persons In evary walk of life and.cceupntion, "Tho lqeality covered by this right of way lind practically: .censud to be adapted to pri- yate residences. The peenliar occupations and ‘habits of the population that had infested alarge portion-of some of. the streets had destroyed those localities for respectable residences, ‘The neighborhood was in that transition state when to-be useful and profit- able, and at the same time respectable, it was to.ba occupied by factories, stables, .or rall- road warehouses, Sooner or later the re- spectable people yyould be driven out by the change-of bualness, and the other class by 2 sense of public decency, The francliso granted by the city:can only extend tothe use of the strects, and the Com- pany must of necessity pay for whatever nnd thoy mny-deatre, and pay for it befora taking possesston.
