The Presidential Election In a Canadian
Point OF View.

From the Montreal Herald Oct 141
On the 18th Of the next month will take place the
Pres election in the nited States Three
ddates are proposed, by many different parties for
this, the highest no nor among republican neigh

those called by our neishbors the barnburners but
which may be mo:eintegibly described by their other
name ofthe free soil party The wings and democrats as
all the world knows the two old parties in the
United States. Their main differences of late years
to have Dope nded personal questions of
place and emolument than Of any broad difference on
views of policy The politics seem, n general, to have
been adapted to the exgencies the politicians rather
than to have arisen from any natural divergence in
their opinions On the other nand, the free soil

the seabosrd States appear to be for Taylor the
tern and Southwestern appear to be for Cas- and the
Northwestern are those in which the free soil candi
date the strongest We must not conclude that the
reeult of this contest is entirely to US In
Canada Independently of the sympathy which we must
feel in common with oil friends humanity In the sue
cess Of those who desire to restrain the extension of sa

the Two countries when Cue policy Of each must exert
some influence on the prosperity of the other We do
not fear some appear to do that the accession of
Cassie the Presidency must necessarily asio war
between the United States and Great Britain We
have become too much accustomed to such bullying az
that which marked the beginning Of the reign Of
Polk, to have much dread of It, But still, eve this
contingency may depend upon the party which shall
be predominant at Washington. The more Immediate

the wings with be great ufacturing States of the
East gives them strong leaning In favor Of protec-
ZIONIST doctrines which might interpose serious OBJ
staces to the relations of reciprocity that desire to
see established AT present. the probability of the
contest seems to be entirely In favor Of General

ON full view of the recent election, compared with
the previous position Of parties in Ohio, driven
to the conclusion that the close between Ford and
Weller is test of the probable vote for Taylor and
Cass at the election the 9TH of November (next
week It is proved also that neither the wing nor the
free soil men have voted in full force for Ford the
whig candidate for Governor; other wise, his orty
must have exceeded ten thousand in the StaIe
allowing q liberal democratic gain.
Whether " Old Zackn will be able to command a
sufficient majority of the persons who have voted
for Governor to insure him the electoral vote of the
State remains to be seen but his chance certainly
seems better for these twenty-three votes than
calculateda week or two ago. before We had time to
analyse the election returns
The Cincinnati Gazette publishes estimate of the
majority in each county for Taylor and Cass, giving
Taylor 1900 majority In the counties 1896
in the State. Great gains for Taylor are expected in
the Southern counties, ON and near the Ohio River

The Hamburg republican says 1T will be observed

This Is curious and astoN nding result as 1t was

Politics are scarcely less absorbing IN the coun-

be but little change, as far as can hear, in the
results of the November election from that of 1914,
the contest appearing to be strictly Jarty one
In the Felicianas the democrats will get their
usual majorltes. In Pointe Coupee they will ex-
hiblt some gain upon their previous results. In
Iberville, General Taylor will get more than the
usual wing vote; and perhaps also IN West and
