NC taxpayers IN lhHt State to pay their

cited rs a proof that he is inconsistent in
the attitude he has assumed in his letter of

puts the case in this way: - Mr.. Ti]Irn

He used whatever influence he co"ld brine
to bear upon the Democrats of the IIou,e
not to defeat the repeal of the Resumption
act, although the repeal of the date clause
WAS demanded by the s.. Louis platform
His retrocessiCn from his position, and his
concession to Hendricks, is an ,b,nInn-
ment of declared views and PRINCIPLES fo,.
the sake of political success Rather than
come into collision with the soft money ele-
Inent of his party, and inlperil the pros-
poets of Blue jean Williams of Indiana, bo
consents to leave the taxpayers of the State
of New York in the extraordinary fix Of
being compelled to pav their taxes in cola
after the list of January. 1879. whjle in
other States the resumption date heinr
done away with, taxpayers may take adj,
vanta-e OF an irredccmable currency If
any man sees in Mr.. Tiiden the promise of
Il reformer, he must be endowed with ev
traordinary insight into human Character
10 the ordinary comprehension, he is a
shrewd politician, playing for big s:akcs
and ready to sacrifice principles where
they conflict with his interests

FAN banks and MI. Willard are out of
the field and ont of the question. for
the next Governor of Vermont. u large
portion of the people are all AT sea again
on the Governor question. Windham
county presents two mem-Mr. Jacob
EStry and Mr.. Is. ID. Harris. Ii is evil
dent that the people of the county are
much divided upon this matter. and
the prospect is that neither will give
way To the other. We need not Ie
rount the objections raised to both these
men. some of which are no doubt mag
nitied by theiI opponents but they
may be enough to arouse suspicion, and
that is death to any candidate this year.

Haines of Nevada. The addresses in
favor of making no distinction between
and week days were made by
Commissioners Donaldson of Idaho and
Nelson of Alabama. The question,
"Shall the exhibition remain open on
Sundays ~ was finally put to Il vote.
The yeas and nays were called, with
this result Yeas, 9: nays, p. The
New England Commissioners voted
solidly against the opening, but Il mo-
ton was finally successful proving that
the Exhibition grounds shall he thrown
open flee of charge to the public on
sundays. All the buildings, except
possibly the restaurant, will, however,
probably he kept closed Oh Sunday.
This decision is better than we feared,
but not up to what the people had Il
right To expect.
LATER.-THE VOTE RECONSTRUCTED.
The centennial commissioners have
rcconsidercd their resolution closing
the buildings and keeping the grounds
open free on Sunday, and with only
two dissenting votes, have adopted II
resolution closing both buildings and
grounds on sundays. Gov. Hartranft
has accepted the charge of the grounds
for the military, subject t" all park reg
ulaiions. All military organizations
desiring to encamp Oh the grounds must
obtain IL permit from Gov. Hartranft.
Only one piece of artillery will be al
lowed on the grounds, and notification
Of all s;lutcs must he given to the po-
lice six lIouIS in advance. No horses
will he stalled or fed within the grounds,
and no vehicles be allowed except to
load and unload military supplies. No
camp will he allowed to interfere with
the paths, and the military guard must
at all times keep peace and order.

the repeal of the extraditiOn clause of
the AshbuIton Treaty.
From the Boston Journal
1t will be seen that official Informal
ton has been received at Washington
to the effect that the British Govern
ment has decided to follow its own act
of Parliament rather than the require
ments of the Ashburton Treaty, and to
refuse the eXtradition of WinSlOw. He
will accordingly be set free to-day
with what chances of Il voluntary return
to the United States every one can Judge
for himself. In spite of the general
tenor of English adviceS, we had hoped
that the British Government would re-
main true to its treaty obligations in
this matter. Whether it he the fact or
not that the act of Parliament in ques-
ton expressly eXempts existing treaties
from its operation, or whether the state
ments are tue that even British crimi-
nails have been tried on indictments
different from the charges on which
they were eXtradited, the broad ground
still remains that when il nation has en-
tered into IL solemn treaty with another
il has no right to invalidate it by its
q" u separate act NHele ihc ,Ith'S IL
self does not provide for it. If it can
do so with regard To one clause, it can
maniteStly sweep away IL whole treaty.
And what are treaties worth under such
assumptions We confess we have
much curiosity to see how British states
men can defend such International con
duet as this This feature of the case
quite overrides the Importance of any
thing involved in WinSlow's dement's
