THE SOLDIERS REUNION.
The second nnnual reunion of No-
r.iska veterans under the auspices of
10 Grand Army of the Republic
akes place nt Lincoln during Sop-
cmberbcginning on the Dth and
onlinuing until the 10th. The first
ounion , hold nt Central City last year
Ithou h gotten up under many din-
dvantagos was on the whole n uc-
ess. It brought together hundreds
f comrades wli6 had fought together
i the same regiments and many of
hem side by side in the tame com-
anics but who Up to thai * time did
ot know thai there was another man
i Nebraska whom they know during
10 war. Many old and pleasant ac-
uaintancos wore once moro ronowodj
Id time recollections were freshened
y social ititorcourso mid ior a few
ays the most plovmnt features
f n soldier's lifo wore lived over
gain. Hundreds of sturdy farmers
amo to the reunion in their farm
ragona , accompanied by their wives
ml children , who wore thus enabled
see the sunny side of soldiering in
Amp. The camp fire stories were
ory entertaining and often very pa-
ictio when men recited their teariblo
uflbrings in rebel prison pens ,
Ono of the advantages of the re-
nion was the military spirit which it
nfusod into the young men who had
over BOOH nctivo service. It is well
ml the memories of thn last war
lioutd bo cherished nnd that Young
Vmorica should bo Umpired with the
atriotio spirit of their fathers.
The coming reunion at Lincoln
romiscs to bo much larger than that
t Central City. The majority'of our
armors arc ill bettor financial .concfi-
! on than they were a year ago. Most
T those who attended the last reunion
ill doubtless b'o thcro nnd thousands
ho wcro not able to attend last year
car will bo present at Lincoln in
optombor. Preparations on n very
rgo scale arc bcing'inado by the poo-
to of Lincoln and accommodations
ill be furnished for < ! 0,000 people ,
lany of the prominent generals of
10 war , from Gun. Grant down to
Ion. liutler , have been invited , and
omo of them will suroiy bo present.
Ivory effort will bo put forth by the
Irand Army to make the occasion in-
ercsting and memorable.
Nebraska probably contains , in
iroportion to her population , moro
x-votorans of the Union army than
thor state , nnd every veteran who
can should not fail to be present at
lie coming reunion.

OTHER LANDS THANOURS.
The advancmont of the French olco
lions to nn earlier data than usual is n
prudent movo'on'the part of the govern
ment , who deem it best to appeal at as
early a date as possible to the country
for their approval of the policy of for

The political groups which formed , so
compact a majority when the prcsen
deputies were elected hnvo become
moro and moro unmanageable , and the
great loader whoso overmastering' iu
lluonco was felt by every constituency
in 1877 has not been the same mat
since the rejection of the Scrutin di

which hnvo made French republican
isin whn it is 1mvo bcon'derived froi

od its independence by rejecting th
Scrutin do Lisle and by amondin
the compuliory act , but the auprom
acy of the lower hovao cannot b
seriously questioned. The senators
have 40,000 constituents. National
sovereignty expresses itself with
uncertain sound in the senate , where
the great centres of population are
brought down to ft level with villages
containing a few hundred inhabitants.
In the halls of the deputies , where
the great battles of the republic have
been fought , its true voice is heard.

Europe is till unsettled nnd tlio
various foreign offices find theniBeivcs
busily ongngcd in keeping track of
now diplomatic complication * ) which
nro constantly arising. The "con
sent" of the powers , which what sup
posed to hnvo been so satisfactorily
settled by the Berlin treaty , has
proved n rope of sand. The Greek
difficulty still remains unsettled ,
Italy is violently agitated over was BIO
believes to bo French encroachments
on her territory , while England and
Turkey nro both seriously alarmed
over the movements of the French on
African soil. Tha close ullianco be
tween Germany nnd Austrin which
has existed so long is becoming less
cbrdial. As the time for the final dis
memberment of Turkey ArxvtH near ,
tha question must bo answered : JsJiis

linquish Austria it Hungary is extended -

rope , oven Franco having refused
to join hands with her. Italy ,
also , is isolated from all other nations ,
unless Turkey bo still considered n
nation , and Grocco shakes with sup
pressed f ury nt nil Europe. Great
Britain distrusts Germany , is n rival
of Ilussia , and feels n sort of coolness
towards Franco , which country again
has no other friend in Europe nt pres
ent than straugo mutability of his
tory the Gorman empire.
The defeat of Abdurrahman Khan
ends the last rcmnininiil& fragment of
the policy which Lord Bcaconslicld's
administration nt tempted to carry out
in Afghanistan nt n cost of § 75,000-
000. Iho chief object of the war , bo-
gnu by the last British ministry , waste
to establish nt Cabul x dependent
ameer The first step in this direc
tion , the appointment ef Yakoob
Khan , an older brother of Ayoob , who
has just reached power , failed , and
Yakoob Khan is now an Indian pen
sioner. Ho was succeeded nt Cnbul by
Abdurrahman Khan , who was ox-
pocfod to keep himself in power by
thp help of n heavy British subven
tion , oven if ho was not able to put
down his kinsman , Ayoob Khan , in
open rebellion at Herat ; but the re
cipient of the British bounty has been
defeated in his first battle , and his
rivnl , who has boon for three' years
cultivating the closest relations with
Russia , is now in complete control of
Afghanistan. A son of Shore Ah , a
grandson of D.irb Mahommod , Ayoob
is the ablest living representative of
the Barnckayo house and his accession
to power gives England a Russian
sympathiser on the Indian border.
The great powers are still greatly
oxcitcd over northern Africa. * The
French interest in Algiers has never
been ot uny value to Franco , but
ought to bo of great value to Africa
nnd there is no doubt that the pro- ,
dominenco of French influence in
Tunis will help on the opening of the
dark continent. It is rather absurd
on thu part of Great Britain to servo
notice that ' . ' "
nobody can 'improve"
Tripoli , because Tripoli lies next to
Egypt , ' nnd Egypt is in the hands of
the Rothschilds , British nnd other.
The British empire ought to have got

the porto ever its distant dependen
cies. The sooner nil the northern
part of Africa from Morocco to tha

ment , the bettor for the world. At
the other end of the continent , singu
larly enough , Caucasian blood and
Christian institutions have got firmly
rooted upon the neil , and there Eng
land can scarcely lot them nlono , but
she protects thu Asiatic barbarism of
the northern provinces without hesi

The Irish landlords declare that they
have been etcrificod to radicalism , and
say they will not i lo with their Eng
lish brethren when a similar measure ,
or one perhaps mro drastic , is brought
down to appease the popular cry
against primogenitWJand entail. " A
curious rumor in connection with this
matter is thai Mr. Gladstone is to bo
created Earl of Oxford at 'once , and
look nftor the interests of his bill In
the upper house. But this is not to
ba credited. However , Mr. Gladstone
has earned relief from the activities ot
the lower house , and in England this
usually tnkes the form of n lifo peer
age. .
The Irsh ngitation in America , re
sulting from the shipment of the in
fernal machines to England is various-
commented upon by the English pa
pers. A largo number of the Enp-
lisk journals ngroo that the United
States will enforce the Inw against the
shipping . of explosives and trust Id the
friendly oflices of our government in
lf
restraining future movements of a
like nature. Others regard the dyna
mite ecaro ni n simple advertisement
of tha skirmishing fund , intended to
secure larger contibutions from Irish
Americans. Notwithstanding the ad
verse cfloct which the discovery was
expected to have on the land bill in
the hou.so of lords , that body has
wisely determined to interpose no ob
stacle to the wishes of the commons
and has passed the bill to its third
reading. Its final passage ia only a
question of a few days.
A semi-official letter received from
. Tripoli has been communicated to the

as if to excite the Mussulmans , nnd
that Frenchmen , or those inhabitants
who nro under French protection ,

The recent attack upon a surveying
party on the Mexican Central Rail
road has given rise to many specula
tions as lo the dcgrco of annoyance
which the various railroad companies
in that republic may expect lo en
counter. It is ndmittcd thrt the
Mexican government would protect
the railroad builders if it were in its
power to do so , but it is known that
Mexico has a largo lawless population
which the government hus never been
able to reduce to subjection. The as
sailants of the Mexican Central party
are reported to have been Apaches ,
and. it is surmised that they aro.a part
of Victoria's band.The danger , how
ever , docs not arise from Apaches , but
from that largo class of the Mexican
population which lives by plunder and
ia not particular who suffers by their
operations. The existence of this
class 1ms suggested the idea that each
company engaged in railroad building
in Mexico should send with its army
of construction a strong military col
ony , composed of men who will settle
upon the railroad company's lands as
soon ns tramjuility is restored. The
company can very well afford lo give
each of these semi-military settlers a
one hundred nnd sixty aero homestead -
stead , with some litth assistance in
the way of farming implements and
provisions thrown in. Somebody
has got to'subduo the Apaches and
their Mexican allies , nnd probably iu
loss expensive army could bo orran-
ized. _
The Bradlaugh case ia again broughl
into p roiuinonco by his forcible eject
ment from the house of commons
while attempting to take tha seat to
which ho was elected. Mr. Brad
laugh has twice boon returned to the
parliament by the electors of North
ampton. Ho watt refused his
seat the first time because ho declined
to take the prescribed oath , Subse
quently he consented to take the
oath , but declared that ho attached
no religious significance to it. Ho
supported his right to his seat by the
very trim assertion that neither the
Quakers nor the Jews wore required
to take the regular oath , and that his
own convictions were ns worthy
of respect as theirs. Bradlnugh is nn
atheist , and the principle which is in
volved in his case turns upon the
question of thu right of parliament tq
reject a regularly elected rpprosonta- .
tivo of a constituency for religions
reasons. Mr. Bradlaugh's contest
ia to settle whe'thiir religious prince
plea or the lack of religious princi
ples can bo a bar to parliamentary
privileges. In Jiis determined effort
to secure the scat to which ho was
elected Mr. Bradlaugh is supported by
many who do not sympathize with his
view , but who feel that ho is the top
rosontatived of political rights , which
cannot be ignored by the British par
liamcnt.
