hand in the business, either upon a general
tickets at all, as the question may he de-
termined at Syracuse on the 9Th Then,
again. the Women's State Temperance Society
have organized plan Of operations whereby
all the candidates Of all parties in the field are
to be closely cross-examined on the gin, rum.
whiskey and lager bier question, and a general
turnout is to be made of the temperance women
to the polls on election day in behalf Of the
candidates of the Maine Liquor law. This
movement is to be carried out in every hole
and corner Of the State, and the work, we IN
derstand, is going on now in the circulation Of
temperance tracts broadcast over the COM
monwealth In cooperation with this en-
terprise the Temperance Alliance of this city,
an active body of Maine law men, have held
preparatory meeting, from which it is manifest
that they intend to make the said law the spe-
cial test on Manhattan Island and its suburbs
on Long Island. Then there is the party of
Big Thunder and his five thousand voters Of
the anti-rent districts to be taken into the ge-
neral estimate. Now, with all these materials
in active exercise in the election of November,
can anybody venture even to guess at the ge-
neral result. We defy the most finished grad
uate in spiritual manifestations to give us an
estimate that will begin to hold water on cleo
ton day.
The fact is that both the old parties, in this
State at least, are substantially broken up
root and branch. There may possibly be re-
union OF the wings for this election and no fur
Their but even that is exceedingly doubtful.
The determination Of their October conven-
ton, however, being necessary to complete the
existing confusion. we are cheerfully waiting
the issue. We think, Notwithstanding, that
quite enough is known to justify every man in
the State to vote his own ticket, upon his own
responsibility, from the best materials that he
can find among those who are up for the popu-
lar SURFACES, because some of them will I'M
doubtedly 6e elected .hHnsh l. . :c..h ..
tw entieth /. art Of the aggregate vote of the
State IS cast. Cold water will be the ruling
question: first, in relation to our canals. and
secondly, in reference to the practical introduce
ton OF the Maine Liquor law. Brandy has
been raised in our metropolitan reiecrories to
ten cents glass; but let the man accustomed
to drink it od h6ifum in the exercise of his
civil liberties look sharp after the Women's
State Temperance organization and the Tenn
perance Alliance OF this city or they are gone
The only conclusions which may be definitely
anticipated in this scrub election are-6rst,
the success Of our canal engagements and,
secondly, the triumph Of the Maine Liquor law.
All the rest is completely betogged ia the
general noise and con asion" 1t is q free
fight, and the more the merrier. Wings to the
rescue! but don't forg get the Maine Liquor law.
The rise of breadstufs will tell tremendously
in the rural districts.

REVIVAL OF THE SLAVERY AGITATIoN-QUEs-
TONS FOR ALL COMPROMISE MEN.-We have
been admonished, from the thrsaAsuings of the
free soil organs, that the time for the disband-
ing Of the anti-slavery organization has not yet
arrived; because
First-The territory Of Nebraska, now being
rapidly settled by the Missourians, will proba
bly, ask Of Congress a territorial government
involving the prohibition or introduction OF
slavery.
Second-The project Of dividing tie State 81
California. with the view OF making the south
ern half slaveholding territory, is moi yet
abandoned
Third-It is highly probable that we shall
soon have to make governmental provision for
another slice from Mexico.
Fourth--As for Cuba. its acquisition being
considered an imperative requisition Of mani
fest destiny.
And upon every one OF these terrific
rial issues there must inevitably come up
the everlasting contest upon the slavery
question. In view Of these prospective ac-
QUESTIONS and territorial changes, is it not
abundantly manifest that the compromises of
1850 are still the living and paramount issues
of the day. And does not the omission Of any
allusion to our expected acquisitions of further
territory by the soft shell democratic Syracuse
convention leave loop-hole for the return to
the Buffalo platform when the exigency shall
require? Union men. compromise men. Of all
parties, reflect upon these things, and act ac-
cordingly. Before the close Of the present ad-
ministration we may have to fight over again
the fearful battle Of the compromise measures.
We have not secured a treaty Of peace upon
the slavery question between the North and
the South. 1t is but an armistioe.

AMERICAN AND ENGLISH EoTELs-OuR SUPE-
RIoRIrY.-We print in to-day's paper two art-
cles from leading English journals. relative to
travelling in England and America aud the
hotel systems Of both countries. 1t is we'll
known fact that at least one-ffth of our popu-
lation are always travelling-tha Americans
are never satisfied until they have seen every
thing worth looking at and that this great rush
Of migratory population in this country has
perf cticn. Look at the splendid hotels Of New
York On Broadway alone, between the Bat
terry and Prince street, we have ten first class
hotels, capable of accommodating three thou
sand persons. These accommodations are not
equal to the demand; several hotels are to be
enlarged, and several new ones are now in the
process Of preparation, including the Lafarge
Houfe which lie to be opened on the first of De-
cember. During the month of August the re-
ceipts of one of these hotels exceeded sixty
thousand dollars, and its balance sheet showed
a clear profit during the year Of ninety thousand
dollars. These facts show the reason why 80
much capital is invested in hotels in this coun-
try, and why they are 30 excellent The people
support them-the people encourage them. In
England the hotels are only patronized by the
higher classes and at one (Mivart's) no person
rs accomm odated unless he wears title or is
attached to an embassy. The articles to which
we have referred set forth very plainly the
difference between the hotel systems in both
countries. That Englshmcn see this. and De.

The ORGAN WITH A DEMI-sEAr-QU AvER.-The
Washington Union has read so many papers
out Of the democratic party. and back again
into it, as to cause serious embarrassment to
exist in the public mind as to which papers are
orthodox and which must he considered hetro-

out Of the church some months ago; but il is
now understood to be back again into favor, and
