But if Harrison be defeated, then the young lady is to discard her pretty bang, comb her hair in the plain style of thirty years ago, and wear it in that quaint style till November 6, 1889.

Lord Sackville’s Dismissal,
New York, Oct. 31. _ The Herald's Washington special says the form of Lord Sackville’s dismissal is sub- stantially as follows:
My Lorp, By direction of the President ] have the honor to inform you that for cause heretofore made known to Her Majesty's Gov- ernment, your continuance in your “present otticial situation near this Government is no longer acceptable, and would,consequently be
detrimental te the good relations between the
two powers. 1 have the further honor, by
direction of the President, to enclose you a letter of safe conduct through the territories of the United States. I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, T. F. Bayarp.
The following is the correspondence which led to Lord Sackville’s dismissal, as above announced :
Pomona, Cal, Sept, 4, 1383. To the British Minister at Washington, D. C.
Sin,—The gravity of the political situation here, and the duties of those voters who are of English birth, but still censider England the mother land, constitute the apology I hereby offer for intruding for information
Many English citizens have for years refrain- edtrem being naturalized, as they thought no good would, accrue from the act, but Mr. Cleve- iand’s Administration has been so favorable avd friendiy toward England, so kind in not eufore- ing the Retaliation act passed by Congress, so sound on the Free Trade question and so hostile to the dynamite school of Lreland, that by the hundreds—yes, by the thousands—they have be- come naturalized for the express purpose of heip- ing to elect himover again. The one above ail of Ame i ao poifticians they consider their own and their couatry’s best friend.
fam one of those unfortunates with a right to vote for Presideut in November. Iam unable to understand four whom I shall cast my ballot, when but one month agol was sure Mr. Cleve- land wasthe man, If Cleveland was pursuing a new policy toward Canada, temporarily only and forthe save of obtaining popularity and con- tinuation of his office four years more, but in- tends to cease his policy when his re-election is secured in November and again favor England's interest, then I should have no further doubts, but go forward and vote for him.
I know of no one better able to direct me, sir, and I most respectfully ask your advice in the matter. I will further add that the two men, Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Harrison. sre very evenly matched, and a few votes may «lect ei'her one, Mr. Harrison is a high-tariff man, a believer on the American side of ali questions and undoubt- edly an enemy to British interests generally. This state is equally divided between the parties, and amere handful of our naturalized country- men can turn it either way. When it is remem- bered that a smali state (Colorado) defeated Mr. filden in 1876 and elected Hayes, the Repub i- can the importance of California is at once ap- parent to all,
As you are at the fountain head of knowledge on the question, and know whether Mr. Cleve- land's policy is temporary only and whether he will, as s00n as he secures another term of four years in the presidency, suspend it for one of fr'endship and free trade. I apply to you private- y and confidentiaily for information, which shall! in turn be treated as entirely secret. such in- formation would put me at rest myself, and if favorable to Mr. Cleveland enable me, on my own responsibility, to assure many of our coun- trymen that they would do England a service by voting for Cleveland and against the Republican system of tariff.
Lord Sackville replied as follows :—
BEVERLY, Mass., Sept. 13, 1888,
Srr,—I am in receipt of your letter of the 4th inst., and beg tosay thatI fully appreciate the difficulty in which you find yourself in casting your vote. You are probably aware that any political party which openly favored the Mother Country at the present moment would lose popu- larity, and that the party in power ia fully aware of this fact. The party, however, is, I believe, still desirous of maintaining friendly relations with Great Britain, andis still as desirous of settling all questions with Canada, which have unfortunately been re-opened since the retrac- tion of the treaty bythe Republican majority in the Senate. and by the President’s messave, to which yon aliude. All allowences must, there- fore, he made for the political situation as regards the Presidential election thus created. Ic is, however, impossible to predict the course which President Cleveland may pursue in the matter of retaliation should he be re-elected; but there is every reason to believe that, while upholding the position he has taken, he will manifest a spirit of concilia'ion in dealing with the question in- volved in his message. I enclose an article from the New York Times of August 22, and remain yours faithfully. L. S. SACKVILLE-WEsT.
Wasuinoton, Oct. 31.
As Lord Sackville is no longer minister, the first secretary of the British legation naturally becomes the official representa- tive of the Government of Great Britain. Mr. Edwards, first secretary, is absent and will not return for some time. Mr. Michael Herbert, recently made second secretary, is now acting minister. Herbert recently arrived from Europe and is to be married to a lady of New York who will thus- be- come mistress of the British legation for the time. At the legation silence is main- tained and Sackville refused to see anyone to-day. Members of the legation said all was uncertainty as to his departure.
Lonpon, Oct. 31.
The press association announces that Sackville comes to England immediately on leave of absence. He had important busi- ness in connection with the succession to the Sackville estates and will not return to Washington.
Lonpon, Oct. 31.
The action of President Cleveland to- wards Minister Sackville was known here only Jate last evening. At all the leading clubs it was a topic of conversation and was bitterly condemned by all Englishmen present.
The Bridgewater Matter. Orrawa, Oct. 31.
The claim of J. H. Allen, owner of the ship Bridgewater, for alleged wrongful de- tention of the vessel at Shelburne by Cana- dian customs officials, has been forwarded by Secretary Bayard to the Dominion Gov- ernment through the medium of the im- rerial foreign office. The Minister of Customs has replied to Mr. Bayard’s des- patch, stating that inasmuch as Allen has entered suit against the Dominion Govern- ment in the Nova Scotia courts for $20,000, the Government is quite willing to abide by the decision of the court.
The Manitoba Muddie.
Wiynirec, Oct. 31.
There is nothing new in the railway situa- tion in Manitoba. The Government are quietly progressing with the work of laying the Red River Valley railway, but it is feared that when an attempt is made to lay the diamond a serious collision will take place between the opposing forces.
Drowned on the Banks.
Yarmovutna, Oct. 31. Emery Goodwin of the Yarmouth fishing schooner Maid of the Mist, was drowned on
the Grand Banks by the upsetting of a dory.
The Russian Railway Accident. St. Perrrspure, Oct. 31. The official report of the accident to the Czar’s train says none were killed. Reli- gious services were held through the em- pire, giving thanks for the escape of the Imperial family, The Graph Darin con- tradicts official reports of the accident in regard to casualties. It aflirms that twenty persons were killed, including Captain Breach, Staff Captain, three corporals and eight soldiers of the railway battalion, and | that many were injured.
