The autumn manceuvies of the German army at Potsdam took place yesterday and were witnessed by the Emperor. A repre- sentation of the Battle of Sedan was given.

The Maritime Register says: ‘The coming election in the United’ States, ap- pears to be of more interest now than any

other topic. Discussions assail one on every side, as to the issue of next Novem- ber. But the sum and substance of most

of these disputes relates wholly to the pre- sidential candidates. Little is heard about the men who are to represent the people in Congress. That popular body is comprised in theory—of men from all walks in life. But in fact it is composed mostly of lawyers and politicans, and these and the railroad corporations appear to be the interests chiefly represented. People complain of bad laws and stupid legislation. Surely the cause is self-evident! And yet we hear nothing about the composition of Congress -wemean the men, not the politics—but everything about the presidency.”
