He will do this to silence the assertions that such action will be taken by republicans, but whether such an amendment could be ratified is not clear. PUaUilfJ OPINION, THE \open letter\ addressed by William E. Chandler, of New Hampshire, to the re- publicans of that State is such a frothy, un substantial production that its effect would be harmless even if it had a more important authorship. Coming as it does from a politi- cal understrapper, who has no reputation other than that which Attaches to a super- serviceable partisan, its charges against Pres- ident Hayes, Secretary Sherman and the oth- er alleged parties to an imaginary political bargain pending the decision of the Presiden- tial election will receivs no consideration.— Although it would seem a waste of time to refute such stale slander* Secretary Sherman has chosen to give them an explicit denial in a few words, so far as they refer to him. ' *Oh fudge t the charge isn't worth talking about/' he says, but he adds, \There is no truth whatever in the story.' Colonel Burke, of New Orleans, in an interview with a Herald oorrespondene states that whatever gHtomiset were made before the Louisiana ooant came from toe radicals, including Chandler. Ac- cocdafja; to Colonel Barke they pledged the Hayes administration to the oarpet-bag gov- ernment as well as to tfce conservatives in- tending to break faith with the latter, and were ready to do aaytkins to secure the count But Colonel Rarke denies the kmowl- edjra of any pledget ms4« by PresUUnt Hayes and is as emphatic ae Baflrstary Sherman in his denial of Chandler's, atserUotu. He shows that the propositions $m the restoration of self-government for the tlkmtk came first from President Grant and ware only interrupted to the efforts of the *4ieals—<N«w York Herald.) J WE have no wish to sharpen the feelinga of shame and indignation with which respect- able Republicans will rea4 the aftetrani given by the moat active manager of their party during the last Presidential election of the processes by which tht Presidential office was finally secured to dss. Republican nomi- nee. Whether Chandler tells the truth about other people, his associates, allies and em ployers,may well be doubted ; but there can be no doubt that Chandler tells the truth about himself. His complaint is that sundry wicked and corrupt bargains which he says that he engineered in ths interest of the par ty of great moral ideas have not been carried out, and he calk* upon the Republi can party to \act courageously up to its noble convictions\ and to reqrtffes its reputation by insisting that those wkksd and corrupt bar- gains shall now be executed, or the whole 'varsal country whelmed in one universal and resounding smash.—(World.) WIIILK we are qnarreling over our skeleton of an army—some wisacras clamoring for its reduction to 10,000 me% and others for its increase to 40,000—taa German Imperial Government makes its estimates for next year exceed those of last yeaifcptl,000,000 marks Not only would it strsngtneai and enlarge its vast army of 1,570.009 tten, but ti also pro- pose* an iacrease for-ihe na/jr eetiuiava of S,. 200,000 marks in the ordinary department* and 6,000,000 marks in the extraordinary ds partment. All this is *nougb, by way o contrast, to take away tiie breath of both ex Secretary Robesoa and General Sherman, not to mention ex-Secretary of War Dana, and shows a condition of thJQgs the 8vn should refuse to shine upon. y MR. WILLIAM K. CiriityLKR of New Hamp shire is a Republican of eminent rank. He has been.Aafutant Secretary of the Treasury, and is knotrri as apoliticiaa of experience and resource. Having been imminent and aotive in the management of the last Presidential campaign, he *as selected and sent down to Florida to engineer the oouuting of the votes of that State so as to proture a declaration that the Hayes electors ha4 been chosen by the people. No man understands more inti- mately than he the intrigues, the corruption, and the frauds by which effect was procured front' iority of the Florida Retu rung Board ; ana if he should now turn 8ta e's evidence and reveal all that he knows al rat it, the Fraud- ulent President could not r main in the White House for twenty-four hou i.—(Sun.)

MR, CHANDLIR'S letter has created more stir in Republican circles than th* Republi- cans cure to adroit. The force of the letter is not in the new information it contains, nor in its surmises as to the complicity of South- era Democrats in any scheme for counting Hayes into the Presidency, but in the fact that it is a virtual confession of the fraudulent steps by which the Presidency was secured, ana the open antagonism of a strong and ac- tive body of Republicans to the Aamiuistra- tion. Indeed, it U very doubtful whether Southern Democrats made any arrangement or had any understanding whatever with the Hayes Republicans while the electoral count was goiug on. Mr. Randall Gibson, of New Orleans, emphatically denies the existence of any such agreement. The only bargain known to have been made was between the Hayes men and Packard and Chamberlain, who were undoubtedly promisld protection and support for their fraudulent operation*.— (N. Y.

Above the ordinary height of a man, Char- lemagne was a giant in his statue as^n his mind ; but the graceful and easy proportion of all his limbs spoke the combination of wonderful activity with immense strength, and pleased while it astonished. His coun- tenance was as striking as his figure ; and his broad, high forehead, his keen and flashinfic eye, and bland, unwrinkled brow, offered a bright picture, wherein the spirit of physiog- nomy, natural in all men, might trace the ex- pression of a powerful intellect and a benevo- lent heart. Gifted with a frame, the corpo- real energies of whioh required little oriio re- laxation, and which, consequently, never clogged and hampered his intellect by fatigue.
