Our recent review of Valentino' *

OTHER LANDS THAN OURS.
It is very plain that the Liberal op
position in the Gorman Heichttag do
not propose | to submit in silence to
any attempt i at forcing them into ap
proval of Hismnrck's social and economical
oinic policy , A vigorous speech
wai delivered i by llorr Iliehter , who
is the ablest shaker upon economical
questions | on the Liberal stdo of the
Hotii , and the speech is said to have
produced BO extraordinary an olFect
that no representative of the Government
motif ventured upon an immediate re
ply ' . hut preferred an adjournment
for the t day. llorr llichtcr'a pointed
remark that every Gorman willingly
rccogni/ied the Immortal norvicpB ten-
lerei by thu Chancellor , but that the
German people had cwino of age , and
demanded a controlling voice in the
government of their affairs , no doubt
xpresaoH the feelings of a majority of
Uiei nation ,
' . I5IHMAUCK adopted his old
tactics to win support from the ojipo-
nilion in a Tory characteristic speech
. in favor of the incorporation of IJain-
\ > arg. This city has no far been a
fr port in the Gernmn cuatom ays-
tern. . Riimarck's npcoch culminated
in n appeal to the patriotic feeling of
, . _ . , , .
th German people , whom he wants
,
to keep in mind that all his plans and
projects have but one aim ; to consid
er the unity of Germany. This is a
favorite ( urn of ipeoch with the
Chancellor when lie is hard pressed
for an agument to put bin opponents
at a disadvantage , and he has fro *
qnently used it with effect. Tlio patriotic
rioti nature of his political aims in
this respect ia scarcely doubted by
anybody. Hut the question is whether - '
er the measures ho insists upon *
are . necessary for the consolidation
of Gorman unity , and oven
whether their adoption would not bo
calculated rather to weaken than to
strengthen the popular desire for that
unity by making it less desirable nnd
, .
attractive. . The argument against
him on this point is
. . . very strong nnd
will tax his ingenuity to the * utmost.n
. , , . ,
With regard to the incorporation of
Hamburg in the Xollverein , however ,
ho . is not likely to have much trouble. .
Tlio measure was. at firnt strongly op- '
posed . . bj the merchants of Hamburg.
Hut it has been modified so ns to leave
part of the free port intact as to"u
commercial . . . facilities , and a great many
citizens of the old ITnnsa-tovvn have
meanwhile come to the conclusion
that the change as now agreed upon
may . bo rather advantngoous as to of
their , interests. The Reichstag is now al
asked to make an appropriation of
40,000,000 marks to carry out the
ngeeomeiitand ' that sum will probably"mn
granted.
English economists are beginning to
cheer up since the latest trade returns
show that the '
country's traffic is no
longi decreasing. It is increasing
this autumn , both in the direction of
exports nnd imports. Judging from
October , in fact , 1881 promises to boone
ot ( the b st business years that
Great Britain has ever had. The im for
ports of thn month amounted to over
JL'31,000,000 ' , or to fully 14 per cent ,
more than in the same month last
year , , and to only . ' { per cent , less than are

there is a steady progress in thu recov
from the "hard times" which , a
