On, bother the Dow law I It is Just as well if the Court never renders an opin ion. Kvory one knowa, and for long months bas known, tbe game they, are playing. Oi'R Paris dispatch is full of interest. The new Ministry is at like an old rickety clock, the bands of whleh run in different direction. Dissolution of the Chamber and a new election Is what the people want, and President tiHKVY alone etaudsin the way.

Ho fears the consequences; but, sooner or later, the consequences must coma. Not in many years bas there been such a pretty political situation as tbat prevailing in France. It is tbe situation of great Nation wafting for a man to lead them and not finding him. Bo we waited through the dreary changea of Scott, BuRKsnna, Hooker, until we struck Gust. Germanv does well to increase bor army.

She can not afford to miaa oue single point in the Impend ing game. 'Wexu, Boston bas had her struggle. wbOe it waa perfectly good-natured, it waa at the same time fierce and furious. Tbe ootcome is both a confirmation and a. surprise.

It confirms our view that CBniK.v, the Democratic candidate, would be elected. Bnt after that all ia the unexpected. O'Brien is not simply re-elected, but be baa a majority over all, a tblng which no one ever dreamed of. Hast, tbe Republican candidate, comes next to him. The Labor nominee does not even make a fair showing.

"We leave it to the Boston papers to explain the: faots. Our explanation is tbat the Democrats stood by their ticket, and that most of the laboring moo and fully fifteen thousand republicans voted with them. Iw presenting a publia question it is always well for each aide to understand tbe views of the other side. In this portentous labor struggle Tbe E.nuiher bas devoted thousands of columns the views of tbe workingmen. To-day it en deavors, through most energetic exertion, to present to them the views of manufacturers and business men.

Between tbe two we ought to be able to get at a clear understanding of what tbe situation demands. The man who employs accumulated capital in buainesa of any kind can not-get along without tbe laborer, and the laborer would have a sorry time of it without the employing capitalist. If, then, each is necessary to the other, must it forever bappen tbat there shall be antagonism between them? Ia antagonism naoeswaryT Is it wise for either side? May we not soms day hope to bring about a community of interest wnere antagonism shall pass away, and where each, while striving for their own Interests, shall concede what is due to the other? Is tbat a Utopian dream, or Ik it practicable?

It went out of Court because not properly brought In. Bat we did tope, and do hope, that the Supreme Court, being: les partisan, can find legal excuse), for look-ing into tbe merits. There are two features of news this morning in connection with tbe Cbnreb of Rome which seem to especial comment. Cardinal MAfiNiso- has been interviewed, in Xxndon, aa to the summons lrom Home for Dr. McGlts.Vs attendance to explain bis course in the late Mayoralty campaign in New York City.

Cardinal Maxctno, the ablest of all Knglisn-born dignitaries of tbat Church, replies tbat the summons can not be considered as in any measure a reflection upon the Oeoroe movement. Every one in the least deirree familiar with the polity of the Roman Church should have known that a priori. The some objection would have been raised, same discipline resorted to, if Father McGlt.iji bad supported ItootEVELT or Hewitt, or any one else. Their doctrine is that the Church as a Church, speaking exmlheilra, has no concern with politics, and that its clergy, so acting, wurt keep oat of political combinations, wholly irrespective of their merits. This is right unquestionably right and public respect for religion would be far greater if nil other denominations were to rigidly enforce the same principle.

Tbe second item of news referred to is presented in our local columns, and relates to the sudden Bummons from Cardinal Gmfuj.ii to Archbishop Elder, of this city, to consult with himin New York. It is believed and we think with good reason that the labor struggle will De tbe subject of tbe bastily-called conference. There ia talk it is impossible to tell whether any importance should be attached to it or not that the question is to be, considered and determined whether it is proper to pursue in America the same course followed in Canada tbat is, to place the Knights of Labor under the ban of the Church. If tbat is the prob lem to be considered it is one of profound concern, llie ancient noctrine oi tne Church of ltotno is to admit to its communion no members of secret and oath-bound societies; but they have so far held in this country that the ritual and obligations of the Knights of Labor were not antagonistic to Cburcb welfare. A change in that policy might be pregnant with most serious consequences.

Mb. TrsTso! Baron TEnifYsox Is, perhaps, tTie proper caper baa broken loose againa One of the sweetest prose writers tbat modern I'ngland ever bsd, and on whose death every one deplored, was Sir Arthcb Het.ts; and one of the prettiest and keenest things that he ever wrote was bis essay on "The Art of Leaving Off." Baron Tessyson docs not know bow to leave off. To those who reveled in "The Idyls of tbe King," it is pitiable to witness bis latter-day per formance. As be baa grown old be bas grown pessimistic, and that is weak abominably weak. Why should he squeak in bis broken voice about tbe misery and meanness of our present time? Listen to him: Hope tbe best, but bold the present, fatal daughter of tbe past.

Shape your Heart to front the hour, bntdream not the hour will last. Aye, If dynamite afld revolver leave your courage to be wise- When was age so crammed with menace. madness, written, epoken lies? Envy woars tbe mask of love, and laughing, sober fact to scorn. Cries to weakest as to trongest-ye are equals, equal born. Equal born Oil, yes; If yonder bill be level with tbe flat.

One might consider the closing sugges tion well tuken, if there were not so much malice in it. Tbe disparity be tween tbe flat and the bill, the cat and the lion, is inevitable and eternal. The tit test must survive, and the weakest must go to the wall. But nowadays we give to the weakest a helping, band, and fetter the fittest with the 6trong grasp of the law when be becomes too sellish, Tbere never were better times than these Such better times exist 'only iu soured hearts or addled intellects. Why should the poet-laureate, living in his fairy palace on the Isle of Man, peep of them? Has the world ever been harsh to him? He has lived in courts and palaoes, and he knows not the people.

They suffer now, as they always have, and always will, till Gabriel blows bis trumpet in the morning; but they would be ashamed to pnt forth such a babyish sqneal as the au thor of "In Memoriam" indulges in.

A ease of accidental drowning under dis tressing circumstances occurred shortly after six o'clock last evening. At the time of tbe accident, ferry-boat pity or Newport, which, with the boat City of Cincinnati, plys between this city and tbe Kentucky shore to accommodate tbe great mass of people passing between this city and Newport during the early eventng honrs, was leaving the float on this side with a large crowd of people bound for their homea la Newport, Ky. Tbe atera of tbe steamer waa perhaps six feet from tbe wbarf when a young man dasbed down 'the bank on to the float and jumped, intending to catch tbe outgoing boat. Unfortunately, he bad miscalculated, and instead, went down Into the river and was not again seen. A passenger on the boat noticed tbe accident, but Instead of hallooing to tbe collector and other men on tbe wbarf to assist the drowning man, be ran forward tbrougb tbs boat to where one of the engineers was stationed.

In a few minutes the cry. "Man sounded through the bout, and tbe tinkling of the bells signaled the engineere to stop the ponderous paddle-wheels which were carrying the bout out into tbe stream. Engines reversed, the boat, which had gone quite a dis lance out Into the river, backed down to the vicinity of the fatal accident, but nothing was to be seen of tbenofortuiiate. The first clew to the Identity of the victim of bis owu folly was received by the ottlcera of tbe boat about balf-past eight o'eloek In tbe evening, when a mau and woman came down to the Newport wharf-boat and Inquired tf an accident bad happened. Upon being Informed of tne drowning the woman elated that tbe dian was her brother.
