ISSUES upon which the election has
practically to decide could scarcely be
over-estimatrd, and there was some
ground for the apprehension thrt the

good sense ot the American peO-
pie has come to the rescue
just in time Ia save the country
from the consequences OF party blum
dcring and the immortality of profession
