IL the New York Tribifne's interviews with
prC minent republicans who have heretofore
sbelled out literally for political purposes
he reliable indications, the managers OF the
party in that state are going 10 have pretty
hard shedding TO raise money for leg ltima:e
campaign purposes this year. Ia fact, il may
be said that the outlook for the republican
party Is anything but encouraging in any
direction al the present time. At least, that
is what one would be bound 10 infer from a
remark that was made by a gentleman who
used to be rathe' an active member OF the
organization. he formulated the situation
thus: 1.-The southern policy cost us Ohio;
civil service reform will lose us New York,
and Pennsylvania is going to hell on general
principlee."

The haste with which the resumption
repealers are moving in the House seems TO
create some discomposure in financial cir
cles. The New York Post, arguing upon the
theory that the House will pass the repeal
bill when II comes up, says that In this
emergency the friends of public honesty will
look to the Senate 10 put stop to this breach
of public faith; and If, in its present close
division, the Senate should fail them they
VIII trust 10 the veto OF the President. The
proceedings in the House yesterday, how
ever, show that the anti-resumption forces
are not as strong as apprehended, and that
they are so badly generalled that IT is by no
means sure that the repeal bill will pass that
body, even.

The number OF failures In New York for
the month Of October is larger than that re-
corded for any other month this year The
estimated amount of the assets and liabili
ties OF the bankrupt persons is as follows:
Assets, s752. as; liabilities, IS 1892 Omit
ting assignments ard the appointm ent of
receivers, the number of hank-upts is 81, and
the list includes representatives from al most
every business, lawyers, brokers, specula-
tors, BANKERS, dealers in cotton. wooden, and
SIX fabrics, butchers, grocers, importers,
tobecconists, liquor dealers, etc, etc. Though
more bankru ptcies are recorded for October
than the previous month there is nevertheless
good reason 70 believe that business is begin
ming TO improve, since the aggregate OF La
bilities is less by 500 900 than the amount for
September.

The critical situation Of the Turkish forces
IN and near Plevna Will probably soon cause
a desperate combined assault of Osmau
Pssha from within and Chew ket Osman Pasha
from without on the investing Russian
army. The actions OF the Russians would
seem to indicate that they look for some such
move ment, and are so manPuvring that the
Turks may attack al a disadvantage. The
Official announcement that over 200 600 men
are to be drawn Immediately from the re-

The front Of all the regular troops that re-
manned al Constantinople, show that the
Turkish authorities understand the serious
nature OF the emergency.

RPciprOcify I'm Trade

The report OF the L. z. Consul at Leeds
(given el'ewhere) upon the decline OF the
British export trade TO the United States is
Of course flattering to our national pride in
a certain way, but there is an underlying
fallacy in the cOnsuls rose colOred view of
the prosperity that is to come TO this country
when IL shall be absolutely self-sustaining,
and able TO do without the products of the
rest OF the world. and, al the same time,
can compel all the rest of mankind to
come TO us as purchasers. Now the pur
chasing capacity of a nation depends upon
its ability 10 sell its own products, and in
The long run il is evident that our customers
in the family of nations would exhaust the
means TO buy anything from us If they could
supply nothing in exchange. In time we
should absorb all the money in the world il
our coDsul's idea could be realized, and the
United States come to be "the one country
on the whole globe where all the require
ments, both necessaries and lUxurieS, can
be produced, being dependent upon other
countries for nothing in exchange for her
surplus productions" In the condition of
affairs here depicted there would be no
return cargOes except the gold sent here
by purchasers, and, as we have pointed
out, this steady drain from all quarters
must In The end result in our accumu-
lating sll the wealth Of the world, while the
rest of MANKIND must go into bankruptcy
But this idea of buying nothing aud selling
everything will never be realized. IL is
probable that with our vast resources the
balance Of trade will be sufficiently in our
favor for series OF years, to enable us to
pay our way and lay up something for the
period Yet distant but sure 10 come. when

ALTHOUGH no decisive engagements
have taken place between the contend
ing armies in Europe, it seems very
clear that the Muscovite is Tightening
the grip he has upon the throat of the
Mussulman; and the events of the
next few weeks may result in the lat
ter's giving up the ghost, nothwith-
standing he fights with desperation
for which he has not heretofore been
noted. The Russians are slowly, but
surely. concentrating their forces
around Plevna and Erzeroum. both OF
which places, unless miraculously re-
Iieyed. must fall into their hands be-
fore the close of the present month.
That the Russians have the advantage,
is manifest from the renewed uneasi-
ness that shows itself in English gov
ernmental circles. In his speech at
the lord mayors banquet, the other
evening, Disraeli gave the world to
understand that british neutrality
must cease if British interests are
assaulted and menaced." He further
expressed the hope that the time is
not far distant when settlement of
the difficulties may be effected.
Whether Russia will pay any attention
to this threat of British interference
remains to be seen.

THE BRILLIANT PROSPECT FOR
THE SOLID SOUTH.

As illustrating the hopes of the
South we append the following from
the Raleigh News:
We have again unquestiUned power
i'm the National Legislature. Let us
beware how we use it. Let us be sure
to exercise il width due caution, pru-
dence and wisdom. Any step on our
part which will revive the spirit of
sectionalism, and tend to sOlidify the
North against the solid South, VIII
prove disastrous in the end, whatever
temporary advantage we might gain
by it, We must bear in mind that the
Democracy have the House by but a
small majority. A change of ten dis
tricts will put the Republicans in pow
er, and lead in the direction of Re-
publican success in 1880. Let us be
sure not to suffer the House to slip
from our grasp. With such a pros
pect i'm full view: with victory, In its
broadcast, most comprehensive, and
most glorious sense, almost perched
upon our banners, any mistake by the
representatives of the South in
Congress likely to jeopardize our ma
iority i'm the next House, would be
folly akin to crime. With elevated
craftsmanship, true moderation, and
broad national patriotism guiding our
counsels, we shall see the South few
years hence, once more IN controls
inc position in National affairs.

THE RESULT IN WISCONSIN,.

Though parhaps merely matter of
opinion it is our purpose to casually
analyze the result of the November
election in this State, venturing to
suggest some of the causes which con-
tributed to the success of the Repub-
lican ticket. The damaging diScl0s-
ures against Ex-Governor Taylor soon
after the expiration of his Guberna-
tOrial term of office naturally tended
TO shake the faith of many who sup
ported him as a Performer" in the
Reform professions of the opposition
TO the Republican party, and planted
a germ of reaction which had taken
root, impressing the honest seeker af-
ter reform with the very correct idea
that the loud declarations favoring re-
form emanated from those represent
ing a faction or party who used this
delusive cry simply to gain the ascen-
dancy that they might thereby gain
place and power, having no fixed ben
efieent principles.
Next came the nominatian of State
ticket by the Fond du Lac convention,
the personnel of which did not prove
highly acceptable to the rank and file
of the party and for which no enthus-
iasm could be aroused. while the plat
form adopted was more unsatisfactory
than the ticket. Unluckily for the
Democratic party its convention con-
tanned "RefoTmeTs' enough to con-
troll its action. and by toadying to the
Greenback element hoping thereby to
gain votes, stultified the party on the
currency question, alternating large
number of hard-money adherents, no.
tably a strong percentage of Germans,
who voted the Republican ticket as
representing their views upon finan-
cial issues, while the Greenbackers
instead of feeling comPlimented by
the adoption of their views were dis
gusted with the motive which prompt
ed it and with singular unanimity
voted for their own candidates.
Among the most important factors
which the Republicans brought into
requIsition inuring TO their benefit, we
may observe the fact that federal of
fice-hOlders made themselves conspicu-
Gus by their absence and non-interfer-
enee with the deliberations of the
State Convention. and the consequent
nomination of gentlemen of acknOwl-
edged fitness, undOubted integrity and
coumendable assoc as by repre-.
sentatives from the ~..aA dfile of the
party; the bold stanG saken by the par

SITTING BULL threatens to die game.
The Canadian government, evidently
not relIshing the idea of having that
troublesome warrior so near the boun-
Diary line, has ordered him and his
band to the BED Deer river, several
hundred miles north of his present
position. When told to hold himself
in readiness to move to his new quar-
tiers, he made little speech in which
he promised to be a good boy, to love
Queen Vic. as only a dutiful child can
love, and to live at peace with all OF
the Queens children; but that as soon
as he feels stronger, lie will return to
the United States and slight the Amer
leans until DEATH"
