"A correspondent Of the Tribune. who
writes from Minnesota, relates converse.
ton with Senator Window on the currency
question: which is interesting as showing
the fallacy of the prevailing notion that
the west is a unit for initiation. The Sena-
tor said that though personally opposed tc
the schemes of the inhationists for making
money cheap" he felt constrained, out oil
Difference to what he supposed was the sen.
timent Of his constituents, to vote for some
of the compromise measures. lie has beer
astonished since his return home to find
how public opinion upon this question had
been misrepresented, for he had, since his
return to the State, found very few who
were in favor of imitation. Never, since he
had been in political life in the State, had
be been SO much deceived in regard to the
wishes Of his constituents.

The insult offered to Congress and the
country by the reelection Of the Mormon
Cannon, is attracting no little attention
from the press. 1t is thought in Washing.
ton that the return Of this pestiferous polyg.
amist will open anew the whole Mormon
question, and that il is not unlikely the
next Congress will pass resolution Of ex'
palsion, aud thereby teach Brigham Young
and this bragen Cannon lesson they very
greatly need TO learn. 1t is about time
this Mormon nuisance were disposed of. A
wholesome legislation concerning the evil
will do good work, and after this defiant at
titude in sending Bishop Cannon again tC
Washington, we hope Congress will mol
hesitate for moment to hustle him out Of
its presence.

Another victory for American muscle
is to be noted, the American base ball players
now in England having beaten apicked Eng
lish eleven in match game of cricket
The triumph is more noteworthy from the
fact that the game is concededy and pecu
liarly British, the effort to popularize it il
this country several years ago having sig
nally failed. 1t was expected that the he
roes of the bat would show John Bull 1
good point or two in what is recognized a
the "great American game" but no on'
dreamed that they would yauquish the bur
ly English cricketers at their own wickets
The event, therefore, constitutes quite ,
feather in their caps.

1t is no small compliment to the State
Of Massachusetts,, that the declination Of
Messrs. Dawes and f. X. Iloar to be re-
elected to Congress, creates regret through
out the country, and that it finds expression
in journals Of both the Republican and
Democratic parties. The Republican jour.
mails of Massachusetts seem to apprehend,
not merely that the places Of Messrs. Dawes
aud Hoar will not be filled by equally able
successors, but that the nomination Of those
much their inferior will weaken the Repub-
lican party in the November election for
it seems to be understood in the Bay State
that small men are no longer wanted there
in such important positions as members Of
Congress. Indeed, the belief is there en-
tertained that public opinion is changed to
such degree, that mere party nomination
in Republican districtmay be unavaiing
unless candidates for popular support be
men Of uDdoubted ability and integrity
In other words, that the right to bolt 0
positively bad Or unsuitable nomination il
obtaining such hold upon the public scnti
ment of Massachusetts, that Republican
journals in that Commonwealth are moi
without apprehension that there are break
ers ahead; certainly so, unless men of un
questioned integrity and ability are Offered
for support at the polls.

The last addition to the mass of non.
sense that is being printed concerning Pres.
ident Grant and the third term, comes from
u correspondent of the New York Herald,
who purpOrts to write from Long Branch.
The President is represented as avowing to
a prominent Liberal Republican his inten.
ton of running for third term by taking
a new departure and becoming candidate
of the independent and anti.Republicaus Of
all descriptions on platform of universal
amnesty, civil service reform, opposition to
civil rights bills, and cheap transportation
We don't believe word of the yarn.
