In the criminal court, this morning,
Judge Wylie discharged Surratt under
the statute of limitation, the Indictment
having been found two years after the
offence was alleged TO have been COM
mitted.
After the announcement of the deci-
sion of Judge Wylie discharging Sur

and he retired from the court room.
The District Attorney filed an appeal
from the decision and the Court adj
journed.
The Evening Starsays we have every
reason to believe that the cause OF the
protracted session of the Cabinet yes
terday was a discussion as to whether
there was a session of Congress ON the

there was session all the appoint
ments made during the recess had ter
minated, and the offices were now va
cant. The President held that he had
not been notified of any session, and
therefore did not recognize any.

TORONTO, September "a.
The Legislature, while on an excur-
sion around Lake Superior, yesterday.
adopted a resolution recommending an
appropriation of fifty thousand dollars
towards alleviating the distress in the
Red River expeditions; also approving
a liberal policy in regard to mines and
to improve the navigation of Lake Su-
perior.
A woman named Jane Afford was
found murdered in the street yesterday.
a writ of hRbeas corpus has been
granted by Chief Justice Draper, direct
ing the jailor of the county jail at Essex
TO bring up Frank Reno and Charles
Anderson, who were committed to
Windsor Jail for extraditiou on a charge
OF shooting at Americus Wheldon with
intent to kill, at Mansfield, Ind. The
discharge of the prisoner was sought
on the ground that the shooting with
intent 10 kill does not come under the
Ashburton treaty.
WINDSOR, Sept. 24.-An attempt was

AFTER the adjournment of Congress
Monday, the members hocked to the
rooms of the Union Republican Execu-
tive Committee, and there compared
notes on the pending canvass. Mr..
Tullock, the Secretary, made full ex-
PLANTATION of what had been done by
the Committee, and what is to bei done.
The reports which he has received
from all the States in the Union are
most cheering. he has been giving
much attention to the Southern States,
and Notwithstanding the extraordi-
nary difficulties under which our peo-
ples are laboring, the prospect is en-
couraging. In North Carolina, Alaba-
ma, Florida and Louisiana especially,
the Republicans are confident of sue
cess. They are working night and
day, and are preparing TO meet the Ku-
Klux Klan with their own weapons.
The action of the Georgia Legislature
has exasperated the negroes. and they
express a determination to vote for
Grant and Colfax this fall, let the con-
sequences be what they may. A gem
eral desire is expressed by our men
South for good speakers to visit their
rest, Toombs & Co., on the stump.
Senator Wilson has volunteered to see
that good speakers are supplied them.
After the October session ne has prom
ised to get dozen of the best stump
speakers in the North and go with
them on an electioneering tour South.
They will begin in North Carolina and
go thence to the Gulf of Mexico.
The reports of the progress of the
campaign In the Northern States are
cheering. The result in Maine. Yer
mont and Colorado seems to have given
a new life to the Republicans all over
the country. Western men in particu-
lar are exceedingly we'll pleased. The
necessity OF carrying the October cleo
the notion shat we can be successful
without hard work is nowhere felt.
Senators Sherman, Wade and Schenck
have no doubt about Ohio giving from
20 600 to q. 600 majority. General Gar
field says that he has been all over the
Western Reserve, and that the four
Congressional districts comprising the
Reserve will give not less than 10000
majority, which makes ths5State sure
by q, 900 majority. PendIeton.s green
back theory is utterly "played OUT %
as the Democracy say, and this fact, in
a great measure, has demoralized the
Democratic leaders.
Senator Morton and the Iudiana
members are equally sanguine of Re-
publican victory in their State, and
predict 10000 Republican majority.
The fight between the Hendricks and
Pendleton wings of the Democracy in
that State has divided their party, and
the failure of Pendleton's greenback
issue has also weakened them. They
intend to try colonizing from Kentucky
as last resort.
