THE TtEPUBLlCAT? REVOLT.
The addres.8 of the Independent Tie-
publicans, who met In conference Tues
day nt New York, cannot fall to com-
maud the considerate nttentlon of the
whole country. There can be no ques
tion, says the Philadelphia Times, of the
sincerity nnd unselfish earnestness ef
these men, among whom nre cot a few
wboss names were consplcnous In the
very earliest councils of the Ttepublioan
party. Tbey nre as proud of its past
achievements as younger Republicans
can be, but they look upon a party as a
menus to nn end nnd cot as a despotio
power that is to bs obeyed nt any cost.
The address sets forth very clearly that
upon questions of present policy there
Is really no dividing line between the
parties at this time. The platforms of
both of them, upou all topics of first
Importance, are In substantial accord
with coo another and with what Is re
garded as the prevailing entrant of opin
ion. Tho danger to the country, there
fore, cannot be In the sucoess of any dls

THE POLITICAL PEOSPECTS
We con I ess, savs the Boston HcnALD,
that we do not understand the reasons
for Republican confidence that lie conn
try i; to be carried this year by their
candidate. Iu I860 tbe popular vote
was ns follows: Garfield, Republican,
4,451,410; Hancock, Deruocr.it, 4.444,052,
Weaver, Greenback, 308 578. Republl.
can plurality over Democratic vote, 01G1
Among the close States that year Call,
fornla went Democratic by 78; Conner.
ticut went Republican by G5G; Indiana
went Republican by 0G12; New Jersey
went Democratic byOlOj New York weui
Republican by 21,033,
In 1882 these States all went Demo
cratic by the following pluralities: Call
fornla, 23 C19; Connecticut, 41C1; Indi
nn., 10,416; New Jersey, 2143; New
Y irk, 102, b5i. Kansas, Massachusetts
and Michigan also went Democratic it
1832, nnd Michigan also went Democrat
ie on aomuller vote in 1883. New York
anl Connecticut leturned to tbe Repub
lie iu column jn 18s3. but New Jersej
rem lined Democi'atic.
Iu the present House of Represents
llv '8 the Democrats bive a majority of
sevjnty-tbrec, nud a majority in tbe
deligatlons of twenty-two Stutes, while
the Republicans have n majority in the
delerutions of filteen States, and one
delegation (that of Florida) is equally
divided.
Iu 1882, when this Congress wns elect
ed, only eight States gave Republican
majorities, and tbe popular majority
against the Republican party was over
000.000.
These facts, taken from a carol ul com
pilatlon published in the Advertised
ura rather impressive. Tbe Republicans
who expect to carry the country thi
year with a ticket against which there
his been a prompt revolt of-unprecedent
ed dimensions assume that there is to be
a oomplett) reaction from tbe vote of
18S2.
The new apportionment, on which tbe
election will be counted this yrar, helps
the Democrats, because its increases tbe
relative power of t.'ie Soulb.giving it 153
ut of 401 votes,
3G'J.
The chances are that t.'ie contest will
be a vtry close one, with a D-mocrntio
majority to decide it should the election
be thrown into the House by any meaus.
'I tuisk," said Dr. Michael OTIira,

the reasons (iivm by Democratlo Irish

From our own Correspondent.
Munich, Germany, July 5, 1831.
Tho American, to whom the sight of a
soldier in unltnrm is a novelty, will find
the vast military organizations of the Euro
pean nations especially notable. In par
tlcular is this the esse in Germany, where
with a standing army of nearly halt a mil
lion men, soldiers are everywhere present,
and almost every town has Its barracks and
garrison. This nation, with a population
equal to that nf Ihe United States, supports
an army which on a peace basis Is more
than twenty times as large as our own and
on a war fonttna, numbers over a million
on.la quarter ol men. In fact Ihe continual
presence of tho military becomes a deeideu
nuisance, and one cannot help comparing
the condition of this army burdened land
with America, where, thank Cod, our sur
roundlngs do not require such vast and ex
pensive armaments.
From Frankfort to Berlin is a tiresome
rldo of nearly four hundred miles, with but
little of Interest along tbe route. Tb
country is densely pooulated and, as Is tbe
case throu.hout nearly all Germany, the
land is umler goon cultivation, nu cattle
are seen grazing in the fiehis hera or elso-
ahm in EurniK). excepting In tbe mouu'
tatnnus regions, the soiling system being
used on account or Ihe greater economy oi
land. In consequence of this, but few
fences are seen end the waste and expense
ufthat class of boundary lines Is rendered
unnecessary. Berlin, the capital nf Ihe
German Empire, Is situated on the riyer
Spree and has a population ol about 1,100.
1100. It Is a well built city, but as is the
case in many European capitals, the newer
portions beyqnd the gates are much more
elegant than the central and older sections.

The performances of Miss Lulu Hurst

tbe reigning sensation of tbe town for
some time past. I have attended one or

one of the "electrical girls,' I urn uuable

ojnviuce one that her power is altogether
exir.iordinary. Her feats bava beeu de
