N. T. Exam'ner: Two millions of our

According to reeent rcports.the German
Chancellor is hetchlng a plot against
their interests. The trouble has sprung
from the following facts.
The Germans probally leva their
native land as much as any people In
the world, and they leave It with regret.
But they have been drawn to us by tho
Irresistible attraction of freedom and of
opportunities for advancement, and

of our citizenship. But Bismarck, who
wants them all to remain at home, and
subject themselves to military dutv, has
always frowned on their transfer of al
legiance. , .
Now the Inevitable remit of this great
influx of Germins has been to create in
timate iicUl and commercial relations
between the United States and Prussia,

This is called the Bancroft Treaty,
and these are the words which Bismarck
is now Mild to be "interpreting" after a
novel fashion. It will be observed that
no distinction is mado between those
who served their military term before
leaving home, und those who left before
service. But the Chancellor holds that
the latter class can only return to Prus
sia fof a few weeks or at most a few
months, and even during that short
period aro subject to notice to quit the
country. Such an interpretation ap
pears utterly unreasonable and unten
able, and Mr. Pendleton, it Is said. Is
endeavoring to gain a proper construc
tion for tho trca'y. If we were to visit
China, we would harJlyearetobebcizcd,

their faily allegiance. Their German

Bismarck's object in canning on these
petty persi i'iitions is uo doubt to dis
courage migration to America. Even
if the great Prussian could succeed In
vlolatlug solemn treaty provisions, he
would, (tardly attain tids result, lie

But the juillltary servitude at home
would be as distasteful as everj,our
frce wheat field and cities would Mill
beckon tha Ivalscr's subjects away, and
the tide of migration' would still set as
heavily westward. Bat Bismarck will
not be allowed to interpret the treaty to
suit himself. We understand the mean-

true meaning will be enforced,

walls of tho old fort a trysttng place,
and many a tale of love has been whis
pered in willing ears, while looking over

watching on Its waves the playful beams

romance has faded into the long ago;
and tho sighing lovers of those days, are
grandfathers and grandmothers now
with pains in their bones, and rheuma

all the ills that make the lives of old

seems younger and fresher than before.
More marvellous still, there is Charles

long years of service, whoso reminis

For the past week there has been a
great run of bridal couples at the bite

and to-day six coupels. There was a
custom at the White House many years
ago of presenting to each bride who
called on tho President a few choice
flowers. In reading an old book some
years ago tho President learned of It for
tho first time, and he decided to renew
it. Orders were given to the. florist in
charge of the conservatory, Mr. Pliel,
accordingly. To receive the flowers,
however, the brides must inform the
President that they are brides. At least
that was the old custom. It Is not
