Another Victim of Anarchy

Another Victim of Anarchy.—The news despatches of April 12 bring the account of the assassination of Count Andreas Potocki, governor of the Austro-Polish province of Galicia, by an anarchist. The Count was giving an audience to a delegation of students when one of them fired three shots at him from a revolver, every bullet taking effect. A number of peasants were waiting outside for an audience with Count Potocki, and when the assassin was being led past them, he said, "I have done this for you." It is the spirit of hatred that leads men to think that they can better their condition by teaching the doctrine of murder. A very badly misgoverned country is a much better place to be in than a country where there is no government at all. Above all things, deliver us from the terrors and the uncertainties of anarchy.
