judgment, caretul, tem of facts, and dign' fied political or poelemica opp ‘seuts, become vituprative and aluive The terms tricksters, forgers, liars, continental liars, persistent liars, lying by wholesale, have been flying nhout thick and fast. The whole catalogue of vituperative adjectives io the Englis! language has been brought into requisi tion. Lhe most zealous in this work, of all the factions,have been the so-callec ludependant Republicans, whether speakes or jourvalists. This of course is ouly another illustration of the we'l known fact, that proselytes, or those who leave political parties or religion: bodies are always more zealous tha! their new-found friends, and most apt to make it warm for the old friends whom they have deserted.

It is that by Wednesday moruing the real result of the electio! will be known, as the decision ,lies with four States—New York, Indiana, New Jersey aud Connecticut. The Repub- licans cav lose New York and still win if they earry all the other States which voted for Garfield in 1880,—which they claim they can do. Is is admitted by

trentment of

the Democrats that they must carry New York and Indiana, or New York,

New Jersey and Connecticut, to win. They must get forty-eight votes North Mr. Cleveland, and it would almost seem a very probable thing for them to do.

That New York and New Jersey are

io elect

the great fighting grounds has been nade more manifest than ever during

the past week. There has been a cov- centration of the best speakers of all parties io and about New York City, while occasional raids have been made into New Jersey. Even the two great Presideotial candidates have been drawn into the great city. Mr. Blaine, after travelling 9,000 miles through the Westera Slates, to be seen and to make speeches, has again reached New York City on, his way home to Maine. Mr. Cleveland has also left the capital, Albany, to head off his formidable rival forthe vote of the State. Both have been entertained at dinners, both have beeu making speeches, and reviewing enormous torchlight and other proces- and both have been exhibiting their persons to the great multitudes, and it mimust be said that both men are fine- lookiug, and of dignified deportment. Sweeping away the great mass of de- tamation to which both men have been subject, we believe that either.would, or will, make a good President, and that the material interests of the Republic will be maintained. Blaine and his party proclaim themselves out-and-out Protectionists. There is no doubt that the Democrats are in the main Free Traders, but in this contest they are ‘hedging ” on the subject of Tariff. and declare it is not a factor in the presevt political struggle.

We think it would be unsafe to bet on either side. as there are several upbknowv quautities in the campaign. The Butler or People’s Party element, the St. Juhu or Prohibition element, the Tammany Hall element, and the

sions.

The Tichborne Claimant.

OF THE CASF,

While one-half of England firmly believ: s that the claimant to the Jichborne estates, vow released, after spending vearly four- ‘een years in prison,is Sir Roger Tichborne, che ovher half is equally positive that he is the erstwhile Wapping butcher, Arthur Orton. The famous case, as developed in the courts, is briefly as follows:—Oa April 10, 1854, young Reger Tichborne, heir to the Tichborne estates and title, then 26 years of age, set sail from Roo, in the Bella, which vessel subsequently foundered at sea. Young Tichberne appears, from the evidence of members of the family and others, to have been a lad of curious dis- position, extremely backward in his educa tion, and somewhat eccentric in bis general behavior. He was brought up principally in France, and in 1845 entered Stonyhurst Roman Catholic College. In 1849 a com- mission was purchased for him in the 6th dragoons, bat he appears to have had no great liking for the profession of arms, and in 1853 sold out, and left with the purpose of making a protracted tour abroad. There is no doubt that he took passage in the ill- fated Bella on the 20th April, 1854. It is quite certain that this vessel was lost, as was generally supposed, with all hands. After a year or two had elapeed and no sign came from Roger Tichborne, the family were forced to the conclusion that he had undoubtedly perished, but, strange to say, his mother, Lady Tichborpe con- tinned to insist aud believe that her son

WAS STILL IN THE LAND OF THE LIVING. From time to time Lady Tichborne adver- tised in various papers tor news of her lost son, and it would appear that in 1860 one of these notices came under the observation of a man named Cubitt, who thereupon in the Angnst of that year inserted a notice addressed personally to Roger Tichborne, requcsting if he were still in the land ot the living to come forward. In response to that letter he received a communication a month later from the man who has now come to be known as the claimant, declar ing his identity with the long mi-sing heir ‘o the Tichborne estates and title. Some cotrespondence took place, and finally au interview was arranged, when the claimant showed such an intimate knowledge of the history of the Tichborne family estate and other cognate matters, that Cubnit was convinced that he was the wan he professed to be = Subsequently Bogle, who had been a personal attendant «of the un oubed Tciboine, met aod instantly recognized

. After spending a short time in Newgate tice, ie claimant was released on Very heavy bail, and in the fullowing year he was put-on trial before Lord Chief Justice

Cockburn, Mr. Justice Mellor, and Mr. Justice Lush, ona dual charge of forgery and perjury. The trial lasted no less than 190 days, and ended in the Claimant é Cou: viction, which was folliw d by a sentence | of 14 years penal servitude, seven years, being inflicted on the forgery count, aud a like term for the off-nee of perjury. rhe whole expenses of the prosecution were | paid by the Government, and 1t 18 under: | stood that the affair cost the country bo less than $1 500,000.

Since the trial and sentence of the claim- ant pumerous attempts have been made to how that no matter who he might be he was not Arthur Octon, Most of the effort: of the strong organizations, formed in his behalf, have been directed towards this object. A lunatic confined in ihe Para- matta Lunatic Asylum, at Sydney, Aus- tralia, known as Cresswell, is put forward as the veritable Wapping butcher, and attempts have repeateuly been made and bid fair to be continued, to obtain a new rial for the claimant, and to secure the in- troduction of Cresswell as anew element in the case. As all these attempts have hitherto been fruitless there does bot seem to be much reason to suppose that any further agitation will be more successful The courts have finally disposed of the ma'ter, and Puthament is net likely to interfere,

The Scott Act.

(Trish Canadian, Oct. 22 )

This measure, within the past few weeks, has met with a suevess which hag take. even its most ardenc supporters by surprise. The Act tias been submitted in several counties, and in all of them it has been carried with majorities renging from 200 to 1100 ; and where the question of ifs repeal nas been submitted to the electorate the Act has still triumphed. This looks serious for those engaged in the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors. It locks as if the public opiuiow of the Dominion was setting in largely in favor of prohibition ; and the consequences which this aggressive movement presages should be weighed in time by those whom it most vitally effects. As things appear now the general belief is that King Alcohol must go.

Few will mourn his departure, for that he has been a scourge and a curse to man- kind the whole civilised world is prepared toadmit. But white this plague is being driven forever from the land, we must not forget there are vested interests that we are bound to respeci, and which the law respects. Thore gentlemen who have in- vested large sams of money in breweries and distilleries have done so, assured that

their investmenta would be protected by those safeguards which the. law throws around all legitimate enter- prises. However much we desire a reformation in the drinking habits of

the people- and this we regard as one ol Heaven's choicest blessings—we are not yet ready to accept this boon if it be at the expense of these gentlemen. We do not desire that they should be ruined ; but that they be recouped fully should this Scott Act go the length of rendering their estab- lishments useless. It we are to be placed under the operations of that Act, the brew- ers and disiillers must be indemmfied Utherwise, it were confiscation—a spe cies

of robbery that the ecvuntry will neither advise nor assent to, + ~<a + -—-—-——— -
