NenraskA has only threo seats to fill in congress this year, with a dozen oandidates for each seat. Coxrinuep depressions in tho stock market, heavy falls in values and hundreds of ruined speculators, ought to teach amateurs the folly of playing against gamblers who have the ad- vantage of loaded dice and an un- limited bank account. —_— Or course the fruit crop is ruined. It has been ruined every year after the late spring frosts and remains ruined until heavy supplies from ground bent limbs take the staich out of the fancy prices of too easily fright- ened dealers, Ir looks as if the south is about to take the advice of the congressman who advised them to raise more hogs and hominy and less hades. Alabama and several other states report a nota- ble increase in the crop of grain, and announce their intention of bearing the market for hoe cake and horse foed. VALENTINE'S pensioners are making much ado about this eminent states- man's great speech on the Chinese bill, which in all probability was one of the many speeches that are prepar- od to order and filed for record with- out ever being delivered. But if Valentine was the real author of that great speech, instead of Fred Nye or some other committee clerk, there is nothing 1n it that wonld arouse the average Nebraskan to a pitch of en- thusissm, In the first place Nebraska is not overrun with moon-eyed lepers, and the Chinese question does not figure prominently in our politics, In the mnext place, Valentine cannot hoodwink workingmen or farmers by buncomb speeches on the Chinese bill when they know him to be all wrong on every vital issue which concerns them.

Ho wasa lad of nine in the royal mchool of Zslo Zarkoe when Alexander I. met Napoleon at Erfuth; he was a young cadet of fif- teen when Alexander, flying north- ward to the Neva, left his former friend Napoleon among the burning wrecks of Moscow; he was & auscess- ful young diplomat when the Bour- bons were driven finally and forever from Franco, From the crushing of Hungary to the rapture of peace in 1878, his handicraft was felt in every great Earopean event, Napoleon 111 esteemed him groater and more subtle than Talleyrand—a compliment which 80 won the old man that in 1870 he did his best for the fallen dynasty and ita restoration to France, Parnell's relese, over which bop- fires blazed throughout Ireland was, it seems only temporary. A week was the limit placed upon hie visit to Paris to attend the funeral of a relative on his parole of houor, after which he will return and be incarce- rated in Kilmrinham jail with a score of other members of the league. ©Of ono thing Mr, Gladstone and his colleagues must bo thoroughly oon- vinoed: that the arrest and imprison- meont of land league leadors and the foroed suspension of its public meet- ings has not desroyed the efficiency of that organisation or diminished the popularity of its creed. The league is working as vigorounly as ever, and more dangeronsly, because compelled to work out «f sight and without the advice of those who have herotofore been ita trusted guides, The patisnce and prudence which Par- nell and his companions might have succossfully urged have beon thrown to the winds by what is naturally re. garded as their martyrdom, and it is hardly t> be expected that from the colls of the martyrs will come moder. ate oounsel, have shown more wisdom, ocertainly more knowledge of Irish character and history, had it let the land league talk frooly, and contented itself with the prompt punishment of violations of law. The so-oalled *‘suppression” of the leauge is & farce, and Parnell and his companions are ten-fold more potent for mischief in jail than they could have been out of it, The government would The mosque of Bt. Sophla, in Con. stantinople, the largest and most mag- nificent of the three hundred mosques in that city, is showing alarming symptoms of decay, and great conster- nation has been created by the report made by the architect appointed to examine into the oondition of 8t Bophia, There is a tradition among the Turks that the fall of this moaque will herald the dismemberment of the empire. It was begun in 533 and re- quired the labor of 10,000 workmen, involving a cost of $5,000,000, An oarthquake injured the building shortly after its completion. In 1453 the church was oconverted into m mosque, and in 1847.49 a ocomplete restoration was effected by Abdul Medjid. The work, however, has not ntood the test of time, and the archi tret reports that the grand dome, which is 120 feetin diameter and 250 foet high, is likely to fall at any mc ment. The mosque will, therefore, bo closed to the public until its thor- ough renovation, which will be under- taken at once, shall bave been effected, Among the many relics presorved in the St. Sophia is the carpet upon which Mohammed was wont to pray. Another of the relics preserved is the oradle of our Savior, which, according to tradition, was brought from Beth- lehem, together with a sort of basin in which his mother washed him. The Britieh navy estimates for 1882 83 amount to $52,419,505, against $54,727,605 last yoar. The only in- orease of any importance is 8352,600 for machinery and ships by contract. The force of eailors and marines has been decreased and the pay of the non-commissioned officers and privates of the latter has been increased. There is also a decrease in the number of officers amongat gngineers and an inorease of salary to those who are high on the list and occupy important ponitions. Fifteen new ironclads are to be commencod and finished, eight corvettes, forty sloops and small ves- sols and twenty-one torpedo boats. Altogether it is proposed to build 20, 142 tons (weight of hull) ships. Last year the quantity was 18,880 and the year before 16,821 tons. The board of admiralty is to have a new member ~—a civilian—added to it, and C. Ren- del, the eminent engineer and ship builder, has been chosen, and will re- ceivo a salary of $10,000 a year. The sailor oficers will thus be somewhat checked and the navy, it is believed, will be materially benefitted by the experience of a professional man from civil life, WxeN Gladstone uttored his famous phrase that the government could not discuss home rule for Ireland as a distinet proposition until the adyo- cates of it formulated some tangible measure he builded wiser than his his party knew. The Scots are the first to seizo this libaral sentiment as it flies. They have, through the voices of a respectable annual convention of the Caledonian Burghs, adopted a resolution calling upon parliament for the right of local self-government in all things concerning their own lands, personalities and the like. . The out- line presented to parliament is sub- stantially the same conditions as exist betwixt the metropolis and Canada— save that the metropolitan parliament shall have a veto upon certain classes of legislation. This sum of substantial |} self-government conceeded Scotland cannot be denied Ireland, and the preblem now resolving in butchery aud blood will come to a peaceful end.

In 1877 only 380 persons left the canton; in 1878 the number was 477; in 1879 it was 941; in 1880 it was 1,638, and in 1881, 2,881, while |} for 1882 the number is expected to be larger atill, Nearly all of them sailed for the United 8:ates. Only 180 went to other-countries, and of these 150 went either to South or to Central Amorica, Tus appointment of De Giers to succeed Gortschakoff is oconsidered significant of the continued mainten- ance of peaceful relations between Russia and Germany. Do Giers is a strong friend of the German alliauce, and is even by descent German. He is intimate with Bismarck and has lately received a good deal of criticism from the young Russlan organs. If he sucoeeds to the authority as well as the franchises of Gortachakoff, Russia will bo greatly benefited by his pres- ence in the admimstratlon, for he is vanced liberal--that is, he does not hold the the medimval motion of di- vine right, covered from another attack of de- lirium tremens, When it seemed ap- pareut that he was not likely to re- cover some of his oourtiers began to look about for a successor to the throne, and their choice fell upon the son of one of the prinoes who were de- ported te Chunar in 1866, Unfor- tanately, King Theebaw rocovered, and, hearing of what was done, or- dered the young man to be killed, Aocordingly, the prince was mur- dored, and his body, inclosed in a vel- vet sack, was thrown into a river, Three of his followers were slso mur- dered, Two Russian transports, with some sixteon hundred men on board, re- ocently passed through the Bosporous, The permission of Turkey had not been asked, and the ocourrence has resulted in an exohange of notes be- tween the porte and the Russian gov- ernment.
