THE MEXICAN PRESIDENCY,

It is more than an election that is re-
ferred to in the announcement that Of the
three candidates for President of Mexico
Tejada is the favorite. There is a revo-
luton in the wind, if this news is cor
rect. Juarez is the present incumbent,
and he has held the Office so long, by
some device or another, that it will be al
astonishing fact if he quits now, simply
because the votes are against him, unless
he is willing to be beaten. He WAS chief
justice, and by virtue of constitutional
provision he succeeded to the presidency
when Comonfort resigned in 1858, and
although the constitution required that
the President should be elected every two
years, Juarez has held until the present
time without going through general
contest since the lucky day he took the
presidency, because it had become q
burden to Ignacio Comonfort. Lerdo de

One Of the papers tells the story of a
man coming into church after the sermon
had begun, whereupon the preacher paused
spd said to him: ''Glad to see you, sir,
come in, come in always glad to sec those
here late who can't come early" To which
salutation the stranger. taking his seat
a. coolly replied: "Thanls you; would you
favor me with the TEXT" Certainly
was the answer; which was done, and the
discourse moved on rs before.

PROGRESS IN OUTRAGE.

England has taken the start Of us in
two measures which have been egitated
IN the United States for tho last three or
four years While we have been discuss
ing the propriety Of allowing women to
vote, OF the election in November, for
school directors, the females were fully
admitted to the electoral privilege
throughout all Of England proper. The
reason of the thing, in this instance, was
declared to be that The women were
directly interested in al educationa,
matters, and it WIGS bat just and proper
that they shouid have voice in selecting
the agents to direct the educational IN
:eress Of the kingdom. And they were
not only admitted to vote On this subject,
but they were allowed to contest for the
positions themselves, and the result
VIA that two eminent ladies, who
have given much time and study to the
advancement of the school cause were
elected on the board Of directors Of the
city Of London. And, as q general mat
ter, it is said, the women voted with bet
ter Judgment than the uen, aiding in the
election Of some OF the best men in Eng
land They handled the ballot with q
feeling es if ii was something that had
life in it, and approached the polls with
an air Of respect, ss if they were dis
charging q solemn trust. How different
the story from one of our elections, where
she men 60 up half or whole drunk, and
with disposition to disgrace tho occasion
by violence and outrage.
Another thing that WIS tested at the
same time was the system of cumulative
voting. Zach voter was allowed to cast
his entire vote for one man if he so de-
sired, and by this process the Catholics,
who we're in the minority in London. yet
succeeded in elecirg two Of the seven
directors. The respectable voters Gil
made sure of returning good men by null
tiplying their ballots in favor Of the par
ties they could certainly conide in. AS,
for instance, where Professor huxley waa
voted FOX. his election Was secured by his
friends who voted seven straight ballots
in his favor. Other candidates were
assisted to their election in the same way.
Both experiments were accepted as
having been completely successful. The
women did not disappoint their friends,
nor did the principle of cumulative voting
fail to give satisfaction. Under the old
system She women would have had no
voice, and the Catholics would have had
no directors. And the success of both
principles should encourage the friends
of female suffrage end Of cumulative
voting to renew their efforts to incor-
porate their progressive measures in tie
political system of the United States.

Tho Paw Fathar Nngert - Iiverro

Inc Rev. E0t0oT NOgeNL, OF LlVelFOO1,
who visits this country for the purpose Of
establishing system of immigration to
this port from Liverpool, is at present
staying at the st. Chaaes Hotel. This
gentleman is known FAR beyond the
sphere Of his duties as one Of the most
jealous and philanthropic Catholic priests
in England-e enjoying the respect and
confidence Of all classes and denomina-
tons for his unceasing efforts in behalf
of the suffering and destitute. He ar
rived on these shores some two months
ago, bringing with him group of thirty
six youthful immigrants. Since then, he
has spent some time in Illinois. Missouri
end Mississippi, in order to familiarize
himself with the special advantages
which these States offer to immigrants, so
that on his return to England he may be
in position better to advise and direct
His position and the self-sacrifice which
has prompted him to undertake this
journey, will secure for him con-
fdence which no paid agent from
this side of the ocean could COM
mand. and, ct the same time, he will
be able to disabuse the public mind in
the British isles Of much of that preju-
dice against immigration to the South
which has been so widely disseminated.
He proposes to encourage immigration
among u superior class of female domes-
tic servants, farm laborers, gardeners, and
also boys and girls of fifteen and sixteen
years of age, whom he has rescued from
the dangers and temptations OF the streets.
Father Nugent is known in Liverpool rs
the apostle of the destitute and homeless
children. Hundreds have been rescued
from life of vice and crime by his zeal
end self-sacriice, receiving in the institu'
tons which he has established for theil
protection a training which has fitted them
for usefulness in every walk Of life. We
want population, we lack cooks, house
maids and nurses, and we cry out for labo,
to till our unculivated lands. Here II
an opportunity Of directing some Of that
labor which is running to waste in Eng.
land, and which would prove such bless
ing to us. Let some of our leading citi.
zens interested in this great question co.
operate with Father Nugent by giving the
weight Of their influence to his mission,
