That Fishery Question.

The Toronto Mai, which is, we believe,
the Ministerial organ, takes up tho fishery
troubles, and remarks, in substance-Grst,
that If we catch any Canadian fishermen in
our waters in violation of treaty provisions
we may do what we please with them; and,
second, that If the provincial authorities
catch any American fishermen in Dominion
waters acting in accordance with the treaty
stipulations they will do what they please
with these unhappy Yankees and we
already know that they mob them. This is
of course bad joke of the Mail.
But all this talk is merely trifling with a
really important question. We would like
to know whether, when we come to either o
revision of the present fishery stipulations
or to new treaty, the Mail will not agree
with the HERAID that common sense and
convenience require that the two countries

stage and to become signalized by achieve

greatness of Gargantua and the thirst of

his services to Peru. Having seated him

Chile 1t was his duty to rnise it and send
one thousand of his finest cannibals to
Peru in order that the governm ent ho loves
might have some fellows able to chaw up
tho Chileans and the Araucanians together.
All this was so distinctly in the true South
American style that it carried conviction on
its face. But now comes forward the Peru
vian Charge d'Affaires in this part OF the
world, and declares on his own authority
that Peru will not accept the services of
these men OF great appetite. He says that

The Zulu War.

Sir Garnet Wolseley sends news from
South Africa that is decidedly rose oolored !;
and other authorities in that part Of the
world send news very much at variance
with his, and both cannot be true. Sir
Garnet's despatch, as given in another col
umn, is indeed inconsistent with itself
He says that "the enemy's army have
dispersed to their homes !" and that "King
Cetewayo is not very far of, and there is
prospect OF an early and peacable settle
ment." But if King Cetewayo's army has
gone home, if he is without troops. what
other settlement is needed than that? But
another despatch represents that Shaw,
who was to 60 out and fetch in Cetewayo.
dares not return to his home because
large Zulu army is on the lookout for him
and the Swazies who were to furnish from
five to ten thousand warriors to help hunt
down the last Of the Zuius. seem to have
been fooling the English all the time and
have now refused to take part in the opera
tions. Sir Garnet's chance Is therefore yet
all before him.
The New York herald., 1879-08-30
Mr.. Cornell WIN Not Do.

The democrats tried an ingenious but
unsuccessful experiment in several States
last fall-namely, to see whether there were
democrats enough to vote in two parties,
and yet carry an election. So far as we re-
member they uniformly failed. 1t was
possible with proper effort to divide the
party, but it was nowhere numerous
enough, after being divided. to elect its
candidates. e,a
late Sam Patch that ''some things can be
done as we'll as Others" evidently means to
try again in this State this fall, and we have
no doubt he will fail, unless Mr.. Conkling
should set his heart on trying the same
little game by forcing the nomination of
Mr.. Cornell Mr.. Conkling's favorite would
undoubtedly be beaten, and though that
may not matter much to Mr.. Conkling just
now, when he has just entered on new
Senatorial term OF six years, it would be
severe blow and encouragement to the rest
of the republican party, who might even,
in their disappointment. blame Mr.. Conk-
ling.
We repeat our advice to the Senator,
therefore, to give up Mr.. Cornell and select
some candidate on whom the whole party
will cordially unite. In fact we commend
to him the ingenious and very sensible ex-
ample of Mr. Tilden's friends in the State
Committee the other day. They might
have insisted on their own will and made q
break in the party. But instead of doing
that-which would have been great foolish
ness-they discovered that the anti-Til-
den men wanted the Convention held
at Syracuse, and thereupon moved
that Syracuse be the place. Of course
their motion was unanimously car
ried We hope Mr.. Conkling will be no
less wise than his great rival, Mr.. Tilden,
and that when the Convention comes to
consider nominations he will nominate,
not Mr.. Cornell, but some candidate. whom
his opponents will gladly accept. That is
the way for the republicans to carry the
State or at least to give themselves fair
chance to do so. There are several ways
for them to lose the State, but we will not
speak Of these-Mr Conkling doubtless
knows all about them. ae.A ag

Those Poor Green bnck kers.

After turbulent session of two days and
half the Greenback Convention. having
first eliminated Mr.. George p. Jones, who
is perhaps the only able man they have in
the organization, adopted platform con-
tanning nineteen resolutions, took up col
lection, and nominated candidate for
Governor who seems to have appreciated
the farcical nature Of the whole proceeding,
for tho only engagement he would make in
the event of his election, he told the Con-
vention, was "to pardon some men out and
some won't" This speech looks little as
though he thought the most of his political
friends would have need of Executive
clemency.
The whole affair was absurd, and only o
little more than half the districts sent dele
gates, which shows that the voters have too
much sense to bother themselves with o
movement which has ceased 10 move.

The City Finances.

Comptroller Kellys annual report on the
city finances will give satisfaction, we
should say, to all concerned. He shows
decrease in the bonded debt of the city,
during the year ending ON he LIST OF
August, OF over four millions. vhile since
December 81. 1876 the bonded debt has
been decreased nearly eight and half
millions.
The valuation, real and personal, for this
year, shows decrease from last year, not
on the real but on personal estate. The tax
levy is slightly higher than last year by
reason, the Comptroller says, of additional
appropriations made by the Legislature"
and the rate of taxation is also, for the
same reason, slightly higher, as we'll as be-
cause the valuation is less. The rate OF
taxation is, nevertheless, We observe less
than in any year since 1873 except last
year.
On the whole Mr.. Kelly presents an en-
couraging view OF the city's financial con-
dition. He is so good Comptroller that
if his name were only Robinson we should
think he would want to be nominated for

Spain, England and Morocco.

The cable despatch from Madrid pub
lished in this mornings issue seems to
indicate that the difficulty between the
Spanish and English governments regarding
Morocco threatens soon to reach critical
point. There seems to be no doubt that
England has had a semi-oficial hand in
furnishing Sultan Muley Hamid with those
six big guns, but it is scarcely credible
that she would SO far defy Spanish pride
and asserted rights as to attempt to land
a portion Of her troops returning from
South Africa on Moorish soil. The latter
part of the despatch. indeed, needs confrma-
ton before it can be accepted. We give
with our cable despatch some extracts from
Spanish correspondence Of the leading Lon
don journals which show how deeply agi-
tated is Spanish public opinion respecting
England's position in Morocco.
