II Mr. Justice Coursol found that his jurisdic-
tion in questions Of an international character
we're limited by the terms Of the Extradition
Treaty, his discharge OF the prisoners may not
be liable 70 be called In question. Bun II the
Executive authorities Of the Province have be-
come entirely Indifferent to the Vindication Of
their own municipal laws, and II this Indifference
render il necessary for us 10 protect ourselves at
the expense Of their territorial sovereignty, il is
well that We should know where the responsl-
bility for the disagreement primarily rests.
Let us accept hr. Justice COursops decision az
technically correct. The Imperial act, az ne puts
it, may override the local enactments for the
guidance Of committing magistrates in the colony
which, strangely enough, never received the
sanction Of the Crown. If so, well. But the
power Of the Province 10 compel obedience 10 It's
own municipal laws will hardly be questioned by
partisan Provincial Judge. The same decision
which has constituted the ST. Albans burglars
offenders against international law and by which
their acquittal has been secured, determines their
crtmlnality as offenders against the common
municipal law Of the Province.
In bis haste to throw sside judicial respons-
bility, as an interpreter Of the AshburtOn Treaty
It appears to us that Mr.. Justice Coursol made
out clear case against the prisoners as violators
of the common municipal law Of the colony.
But, be this IL may, the responsibility OF which
the Provincial Judiciary desire to diVest them
selves, the military authorities hero are prepared
TO assume. And General DiX's order shows tl y.
this ASSUMPTION Of power will not remain tesd
be deemed eXpedient or necessary.
When Mr.. Carter the chief legal adviser Of the
Crown for the Province, was IN Washington the
other day, his professed mission was to confer
with the Government on the best means of pre-
venting these raids. A mounted police force, paid
by the Provincial Government, was to patrol the
more exposed parts Of the frontier, under an en-
perienced commander. General Dix proposes to
supplement this arrangement, when the neCess-
ties Of the crisis demand It. II would have been
q more gracious arrangement if the COOnsts had
had the business entirely in their own hands.
So far as this country is concerned, the case Is
in a nutshell. If Judge Course's action in this
case defines the position and action Of the Cana
dian Government then Southern Rebels are quite
at liberty TO organize raids on Canadian soil
against the United States. That simply converts
Canada, so far as the war is concerned, into Rebel
territory; and our Government, by Gen. Dix's
order, promptly declares its purpose 30 to re-
gard and treat IL in case of necessity. In this
position Il will be heartily sustained by the great
body Of the people.

PRESIDENTIAL canvass.

Here, the canvass both State and Ma.
tional has been remarkably quiet. The
State election being passed, interest is
now being directed TO the Presidential
election. Our citizens were favored on
the LIST inst, with an able and eloquent
speech from Major Z. S. Brown, the Tn
ion Electcr for this Congressional Dis
Irict, al the Court House, during the re-.
cess Of the Circuit Court. The Major
had large and appreciative audience
who listened with wrapped attention to
mis- convincing oyruea's of which we
greatly regret We have only room for the
following points:
He had right to speak Of matters hat
relate to the very existence OF the State
ofWost Virginia. Mcclellan and his
party say they are in favor OF restoring
the Union in its original integrity, with
West Virgins blotied eut, but Lincoln
is in favor Of West Virginia remaining
an original State in the bright galaxy of
States. The speaker here gave histo'
ry Of the Legislation Of Virginia, averred
radical conflict existed, and our inter.
est demanded separation. Spoke Of the
efforts Of our abest men in the ConvCn

BGgA terrible collision occurred on
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, about
Q O'clock on last Monday morning, near
Warrington Station, east Of Wheeling.
The passenger train coming West was
running at the rate Of twenty miles an
hour, and stock train going East, was
running az the same speed when they
collided, by which three men were killed
and sixteen wounded, and it was thought
that four or five Of the wounded could
not recover.
Capt. A. V. Barringer, Chief Quarter.
master Of the Department Of West Viz
ginia, is among The wounded, out it is
said not dangerously. The engineer Of
passenger train, Mr.. Joseph Fulton, was
killed Instantly, and when found he was
holding a piece OF wadding in his hand
aud appeared to have been cleaning
some portion of the machinery Of the en-.
gino when he was killed. His neck lad

BY The official returns, including
the soldiers vote, having assured Uni.
on majority of about 1900 in Pennsyl
yania, the Democratic papers, that have
claimed victory, now predict one
They are profuse in their explanations
OF how they might have bealensus in
October, aud especially profuse in thei:
prophecies Of how they are going to beat
us in November. There is no reply to a
prediction, and there is very little value
in one. Whatever hope a defeat by
$4,000 majority with the influence oftheir
defeats in Maine, Ohio and Indiana may
give the Democrats in their aulcipations
OF the Presidential election, they are en-.
titled 10. We certainly desire that
something, realOr delusive, should give
them courage enough to stand up and be
thrashed and not to take it lying down.
We should estimate the hopes Of the
Democrats, founded on the October elee.
tlons, are about as well founded as the
hopes ofthe rebels on the campaign Of
the Shenandoah. We are satisfied with
both. flour opponents on either side Of
the line are as content, we are having q
good time all around.
