The National Reform Fete and Banquet is over,
and perhaps the best that can be said of it is that it
has steered pretty evenly between success and
failure. Its friends may call it one and its enemies
designate it as the other, but in this, as in other
cases, the juste milieu may be taken as the standard.
It is certain that those who laboured to inaugurate
the affair have met with many drawbacks and dis-
couragements, but perhaps it was not so much their
fault as their misfortune that they should have done
so. They were treated very shabbily by the Reform
League, whose committee withheld all support from
the proceedings, and seemed determined to make it
as fully known as possible that they had nought to
do with the affair. Refusals to appear at
the fete arrived successively from Earl RUS-
SELL, Mr. GLADSTONE, and Mr. BRIGHT. Not-
withstanding all this the promoters of the un-
dertaking persevered, and yesterday celebrated
their triumph. In the afternoon a meeting was
held, at which no resolutions were passed, but where
some criticisms were made on the Reform measure
of this Session. The best that could be said was
not much, and one speaker was strongly against
the bill, which he denounced as being inadequate
and unsatisfactory. In fact, he considered that the
greater number of the constituencies would still be
the " political preserves of a worthless aristocracy.',
The most objectionable speech of the meeting was
delivered by Mr. J. LEICESTER, a glass-blower, who
was conspicuous at one of the meetings last autumn
for his extraordinary language. He went on in much
the same strain this year, and conducted himself with
dealing most unsparing abuse around. Men who
forget themselves in this way do a great deal of
harm to the cause they profess to serve, and thus
only exhibit how unfit they are to judge of those
acts of Parliament which they consider themselves
privileged to decide upon.
The banquet was thinly attended. Mr. POTTER
was chairman, and a letter from Mr. BRIGHT was
circulated among the company. It must be con-
fessed that the hon. member for Birmingham made
the best of an awkward affair with his usual dexterity
and adroitness, and he contrived to set at rest any
doubts that might be entertained as to whether he
would honour the rival Reform banquet with his
presence. A similar answer to this is, he announces,
to be sent to all invitations that may be
sent to him. He has given, he says, the
" leisure of many autumns to the movement for
Reorm, and now when one main part of the work
is done, I do not feel disposed to give another
autumn to platform labours to celebrate the victory
we have won." Perhaps it would have been too
much to expect that Mr. BRIGHT should conclude
his communication without showering a little abuse
upon some one and some thing, and accordingly
the lot falls upon the Houses of Parliament. The
Legislature, he declares, " has been driven in one
direction, but by forces too strong for it, but its
temper is not changed." The chief charge against
it is the destruction.of the popular power of the
great boroughs by the vote at the end of the session.
Mr. POTTER proposed that the Reform Act of
1867 should be accepted as an instalment.
He was profuse in his acknowledgments to Mr.
GLADSTONE and Mr. BRIGHT• for the services they
had rendered, so much so, that had a stranger been
present he might have been excused for thinking
that they, and they only, had proposed and passed
the measure of last session. It would have been
better taste, and a little more in accordance with
truth and justice, if he had tendered some thanks to
to those under whose auspices this instalment had
obtained the sanction of Parliament. On the con-
trary, we hear that Mr. BRIGHT'S honesty of pur-
pose entitled him to the " crown of victory which
he had earned." His eloquence had broken the
power of the Tory party, and had led to
victory the Liberal party. The best com-
mentary on this is that had Mr. BRIGHT himself
thought so he would not have begrudged the leisure
of many autumns to celebrate the victory he had
won. The Chairman only made one reproachful
comment upon the absence of those leaders they had
expected, when he said that the Tory party would
misrepresent their non-appearance. Mr. AYRTON
made a few remarks, the most significant of which
referred to the want of unity which characterised
the Liberal party, and he counselled them to sup-
port their party—" they must be prepared to sink
all personal opinion, and to give their hearty sup-
port to their party." It is worthy of notice, that
had this advice been acted upon last session
Mr. AYRTON would not have been able
to figure at a Reform Banquet, for the
course which Mr. GLADSTONE indicated would not
have permitted the second reading of the Reform
Bill to take place at all. It was a significant fea-
ture in the evening's proceedings that when one of
the speakers was entering into the question of
trades unions, he was met with interruptions. On
the whole the affair passed off very well, and it is
most satisfactory that no contretemps arose to annoy
the harmony of the undertaking. Considering the
peculiar character of the tenets which some of the
speakers upheld, it may be fairly allowed that no
great exaggeration or extravagance of language was
used, and that no very vehement denunciation took
place concerning the existing state of things, for,
with some exceptions, the prevailing tone was mode-
ration.

Political parties in the United States have
seldom a very long respite from agitation, plots,
and counterplots. Thanks to the constant changes
going on, the State elections, the Congressional
elections, and, above all, the Presidential election,
no one who likes the occupation afforded by canvas-
sing, threatening, bribing, influencing, and reckon-
ing up chances need be long idle. Speculation is
just now very busy respecting the momentous
question of who is to preside at the White House.
General GRANT is the favourite, and, strange to
say, both parties are putting him forward. He has
always been popular with the moderate Republi-
cans, and, notwithstanding his acceptance of office
(which indeed he could not help, as the PRESIDENT
was his military superior), he is still looked upon with
favour by that party. They think he is acting as
a check upon the PRESIDENT, and preventing him
from proceeding to greater lengths. As for the
Democrats they are quite ready to accept him,
since he is far prefarable to many other candidates,
and they cherish some hope of getting back to
power under his shadow. Added to all this, he has
the prestige of military success, which tells with the
population generally, and is not likely to do any-
thing very rash or reckless when he gets the control
of affairs. Such influence as Mr. JOHNSON possesses
will probably be given to GRANT, while he will of
course command the suffrages of the army. Thus,
even without the aid of the " Grant clubs,"
which we hear are forming in various
parts of the country, it is very probable that
ULYSSES GRANT will wear the thorny dignity of
President of the United States at the election of
1868. Ms own consent has yet to be obtained, but
there is not much doubt of that so soon as the
chances of success are such as to prevent his can-
didature from being a failure. He is going on
seemingly unconcerned, while all the orators and
newspapers of both parties are busy with his name,
history, and his achievements ; but the conviction
is daily gaining ground that GRANT will be the
next President, and in the present complicated and
distracted state of affairs all parties might have
made a much worse choice.
In the Southern States General ORD has just been
showing himself in a favourable light in contrast
to some other of the military district commanders.
A newspaper office at Camden, Arkansas, has been
destroyed by a mob of soldiers because the paper
contained articles reflecting ou the military. A
good deal of excitement, as may be supposed, was
caused by this unwarrantable outrage, and the com-
mandant of the post, upon being charged with per-
mitting it, took a high hand. He wrote to General
ORD that the censures of the press against public
servants were allowable, but that General OED's
and NEIL'S forces were not servants of the people
of Arkansas, but their masters, and "it was felt
to be a great piece of impertinence for the news-
papers in this State to comment upon General
NEIL under any circumstances." This is a fair speci-
men of the manner in which too many of the Fede-
ral military officers are disposed tc treat the Southern
people. They consider themselves as their masters,
and resent any comment upon their conduct as
" impertinence." It is not to be expected that the
feeling produced by such language and conduct can
be other than hostile and bitter, and if the Radicals
had openly proposed to find a means of alienating
and disgusting the hardly reclaimed Southerners
they could scarcely have done it more effectually.
Luckily in this case the commanding officer pre-
ferred rather to play the part of a just and judicious
administrator of the laws than of a petty tyrant, and
accordingly he wrote in reply to the commandant of
the post that the troops had committed an out-
rage, and asked why it had not been pre-
vented. Ile added that the assertion that
General NEIL'S forces were not the servants, but
the masters, of the people of Arkansas was unjust
both to the people and the general, and unfounded
in law. " The laws are for the benefit of the people.
The assumption that a party of soldiers could, at
their own option, forcibly destroy a citizen's pro-
perty and commit gross violation of the public peace,
would not be tolerated under a NAPOLEON." This
bold and decisive reproof will, it may be hoped,
produce a good effect in other States besides
Arkansas, and induce some of the imperious and
dictatorial commanders to hesitate before they
insist upon the enforcement of arbitrary measures
which " would not be tolerated under a NAPOLEON."
General ORD has ordered the trial of the com-
mandant by court - martial for violation of
the thirty-second Article of War. The PRE-
SIDENT has suggested that all the elections
in the Southern States should take place
simultaneously on the first Tuesday in November.
'The object of fixing the same day i❑ each case is to
prevent the migration of voters from one State to
another, thus unduly influencing the elections.
General SCIIOLEFIELD, who commands iu Virginia,
has published an order, calling an election on the
22d of October—a piece of wanton disrespect to the
PRESIDENT, which is not a little singular, as General
SCHOLEFIELD is considered the most conservative of
the military commanders. General TnomAs, in
Tennessee, upholds the civil supremacy proclama-
tion. A person was arrested by the military autho-
rities. A writ of habeas corpus was sued out
when General THOMAS COIL manded his sub-
ordinates to obey the writ as required by
the proclamation. This is an important step gained
on behalf of civil liberty in the South, for so lung
as force could override command, the positive orders

Those who can spare a little time to study the
manner in which Prussia is consolidating her con-
quests and converting the free cities into provinces
under the dominion of King WILLIAM may perhaps
be astonished and perhaps disappointed. The truth
remains the same, at any rate, and a rapid trans-
formation scene is going on, by means of which
the proposed unity of Germany is to be worked
out by placing many cities and States in a worse
condition than they were before. The contingent
furnished by the free town of Hamburg to the for-
mer German Confederation has been disbanded, and
Prussian troops will henceforth undertake the mili-
tary duties of the town, and the chief guards
have already been occupied by them. So much
for freedom and progress under the new regime,
and so much for the independence of feeling and
action that can be maintained. In point of fact an
arbitrary military absolutism is being rapidly esta-
blished, and the sooner the truth is realised the better
for all parties. Frankfort-on-the-Maine has just
received intelligence, by means of a Royal decree,
defining the bases upon which the property belong-
ing to the city is to be settled. It is declared,
among other things, that the loan effected by that
city to meet the costs of the late war is to be con-
sidered and treated as a debt incumbent upon
frankfort-on-the-Maine. Whatever burdens can
be put upon others the Berlin Government is pretty
certain to let them share, but it is really most

POACHING AFFRAY.—About 2 o'clock on Sunday
morning two gamekeepers were on their rounds on the
game preserves of Thomas Pares, Esq., of Hopwell Hall,
near Derby, when they came in contact with a gang of
poachers near the hall. The keepers were about taking up
a large quantity of netting, when the poachers made a
murderous attack upon them with heavy bludgeons and
large stones. John Geary, ono of the keepers, was so
severely injured that his life is considered i❑ danger. A
man named Anthony has been apprehended and identified
as one of the gang.
