etcy.
The Tichborne case In England recalls the
story Of the Smyth-Provis contest, which
took place III 1853. One Thomas Provis
clai ned the Smyth baronetcy, but his iden-
tity was vigorously disputed, and there was
a searching cross-eNnnination by one of the
leading counsel of the day, Sir Frederick
Thcsiger-now Lord Chelmsford
the claimants remembrance of personal in
cidents, and the extent of his educational ac-
qulrcmcnts. The claimants leading counsel
was Mr.. Bovill, now presiding judge in the
Iiehborne trial and the judge was Mr.. Jus
tce Coleridge, father of the present Sir John,
the SolcitorGeneral.
The case came Oh at the August assizes at
Gloucester in 1858. The claimant professed
to be the son of the late Sir Hugh Smyth, OF
Ashton Hall, near Bristol, who, as generally
supposed, had died without issue, and whose
title had passed to the grandson of bis sister,
minor. 1t was known that he had been
twice married; but the claimant asserted
that there had been prior marriage in Ire
lanl, in 1896, with Jane, daughter of Count
Vandenbergh, and that he was the issue of
that union, his mother having died in giving
him birth. His father, he alleged, kept the
marriage secret, and shortly after the death
of his wife Jane married daughter of the
Bishop of.Bristol. The claimant had been
brought up by a carpenter named Proyis, at
Warininster, and passed as his son, but had
been educated at Winchester shool-he sup
posed at the expense Of Sir Hugh. There,
he asserted, he was visited by the Marchioness
Of Bath and others (since unfortunately
dead, who had recognized him as the real
heir to the Smyth estates, worth about ESQ.,
600 a year.
He produced in court document purport-
ing to be signed by Sir Hugh, acknowledging
him to be his son; letters from the Irish cler-
gyman who had celebrated the marriage;
brooch and other jewelry marked Jane
Gccken, which he asserted was the maiden
name of the mother of jane Fandenbergh.
An old bible with the name of Fandenblugh
written OH the fly-leaf and the entry of the
marriage Of Sir Hugh was also produced, be-
sides large oil painting represented as being
portrait Of Sin Hugh, with his autograph ON
the back Of the canvass. In the document a
PECULIAR MODE OF SPELLING
was observable, "set aside being written
"sett aside" rapid" rapid, ," "whom"
g wllome.' Those In court not in the secret
were surprised at the pertinacity with which
Sir Frederick Thesiger questioned the claim
ant (who stated that he had been lecturer
on educational subjects) as to his mode of
spelling certain words. His photography
exactly agreed with the peculiarities In the
document, and with amazing andacity he
maintained that bis spelling was correct, and
tanned that lie had accidentally found the
document in the possession OF a lawyers
clerk In London.

OUR NEW DEPARTURE.

We place at the head Of onr columns to-day
the regular Democratic. ticket. In doing SO
we but tolIowolr convictions of right, and
firmly believe that wc echo the sentiments OF
a large majority of the people of Montana.
IN the presen: state of oar political affairs it
is almost impossible to-, publish a strictly
Independent or neutral paper. and we are OPP
posed to occupying middle ground or a
questionable position. It IL the duty Of
every freeman to take decided stand upon
the issues now. before the American people.
and we regard it as particularly Incumbent
upon the journalist, who wields more or less
influence. to do so. While we accord to every
one the right TO think and speak asbe ple;lses,
politically, Neaassume for ourself HE same
rr;~.io.se, andsboldlirs si.oise nirlenlors for
Greeley and Brown anti Maginilis. fl Ess
Without entering ihtota discussion here Of
the meritssor dement's of the candidates for
Presitent.or of the principles embraced il.
the two platforms. we viii say most emphar-
ically that we believe in the incolruptible
integrity, craftsmanship and executive ab +
ity Of Greeley and Brown; we believe their
election will insure a return to peace and
pre- perity. and that it will uproot the cor
ruption in high places brought about by the
present administration we believe that they
represent the cause of right against wrong;
the s.cause OF generous craftsmanship, reach
ing with equal benefcence to, all sections Of
our great country the cause of civil liberty.
administered in scrupulous conformity with
written law; the cause of Republican gov
ernment re-established on Its one and only
living foundation-whicf is. the loyal affec-
ton Of free people, We believe their
election will restore to the harrasscd, DOWN
trod, en- and oppressed people Of the South
their political and civil rights; that the olive.
branch of peace 50 long promised will be ex-
tended to them; that no sectional hatred and
oppression in the administration of Mr.. Giee-g
ley will divide our country. In this con-
nection we will quote the closing sentence.
OF Mr.. Greeley's letter of acceptance, which:
contains the following patriotic sentj-
ment !: Y - : LIN this faitll, and with the,
distinct understanding that, if elected I
shall be the President, not OF a party. but of
the whole people, ACCEPT. your nomination.
iii HE confident trust that the masses of our
countryuien, North and South: are eager to
clasp hands across the bloody cflasm which
has too long divided them. forgetting 1llat
they have been enemies III the joyful con-
seriousness that they are and must henceforth
remain brethren. q 4~-s'JSfiii Il
