siderable talk around about on this subject, telling
MI. Ware that he wanted to start next morning to
buy his stock OF goods all arrangements having been
completed. Mr.. Ware gave him draft on the I'M

for $1,000. The Bloomington draft was undoubtedly
forgery. This man "Whitman'' appears the next
day in Fremont under the name Of William T. Allen,

makes the acquaintance Of Mr. Fowler ana other
gentlemen, buys q lot for a residence and leases a

American. Well, 1t may be accepted from the
result, that the Thames "styls' is predominant
on the Thames and the very best thing for
those waters. The race has proved this OF
all events, If nothing more.
Upon the whole there is not much reason to
regret that this terrible conflict between Eng
land and America should have taken place
just in this shape. There might have been
more serious consequences--for example, If
the issue had been staked upon the Alabama
claims, the conquest of Canada or any other
belligerent question. As long as the greatest
excitement Of the day is only to be found in
the battle involved in . boat race on the
Thames, we may congratulate ourselves that
we are living in time when the motto under
which the government is supposed to be con-
trolled Is, 'Let us have peace!

A HINT IN BEHALF OF PRINCE ARTHUR. -
The London Times thinks that the time has
come for the consideration of the question
whether Canada might not be permitted to
assume her appropriate position as an inde-
pendent power. In other words, If the Cana
dams are ready TO proclaim Prince Arthur
King Of the New Dominion her Britannia
Majesty's government might consent to the
arrangement. Some such idea may be at the
bottom Of the present mission Of the good
Prince Arthur. Who knows?

be carefully counted, are on o par, 90 far as
honesty is concerned, with those who not long

brothers, and the only one who holds O federal
Office, and that he is an officer of the army
and has been for twenty-six years. One Of
the Dents, however, is, or was, the White
House doorkeeper, but that can hardly be
called ON Office; another Dent is spoken of for
Governor Of Mississippi and that's all. Thus
it will be seen that Mrs. Grants brothers, in
stead of being among the lucky recipients of
the Presidents favors, are really left out in the
cold. This, then, settles the mean and paltry
party accusation that General Grant has been
