NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The hard work of the
New York campaign is done and the Issues have
been in one way or another pretty thoroughly
made known to the people. The singular and
satisfactory report may now be rendered that
all parties except the greenback are resting
from their labors il the firm conviction, &C
cording to their leaders assertion that success
awaits them next Tuesday. The grcenbackers
claim 10000 votes. The father of them all, SO
to speak, the venerable Peter Cooper, has gone
back on their ticket and comes out IN letter
for Robinson. The Robinson campaign con-
ductors savowedly are full of confidence and
say they know from a careful and
thorough CANVASS that they have majority of
the voters. They have undoubtedly taken
great pains to work in with the young Repub-
licans, and foster the scratching movement.
A good deal Of money was wagered uptown
last night on tho result in tho State A gen.
tleman in the Fifth Avenue Hotel bet SO, 900
to 81 900 on CorRell, but the bulk of the bet
ting in the pool-rooms was at the odds of 300
to $50 on the Republican State ticket These
bets were freely taken. Offers Of 500 to SIS
against Kelly found no takers.
An agent of the scratchers, who has been
travelling through tho lower tier of counties,
has reported that in Chemung county, which
includes the city of Elmira, Kelly will get
considerable vote, but that in the other coun-
ties the Republican scratchers will more than
offset the Tammany men. The usual Republi-
can majority, outside of Kings and New York
counties, is sure to be greatly reduced owing
to this detection.
Samuel J. Tilden has put $3.50, 900 into the
present campaign in this State. More than
that he has indicated to the men who are run
ming the canvass for him, or rather the agents
working under his direct supervision, that the
barrel is open and that they can draw on it for
whatever sums the exigencies of the case may
require as the exigencies upon them in
force. The leaders will doubtless avail them
selves literally of the old mans generosity,
and it is likely that fully one-third of the mil
lion squeezed out of the New York elevated
railroad stock sponge, will go toward winning
Robinson's success, which alone can maintain
Tilden's grasp on tho Democratic Presidential
nomination next year..

nearly $10,500,000. The condition of the treas

bonds for the sinking fund department., to re-
store of coin in the treasury than there is in
the Bank of England. This is the first step
that has ever been taken by Mr.. Sherman to in

fore having been devoted to. the accomplish

The Quartern.aster Generals Report.


The annual report of Quartermaster Gen.
eral Neigs shows that the total expenditures
of luis department. during the last fiscal year
were $40, $4,000. T he department moved
during the year 59,177 persons, 1921 beasts,
and 12O,440 tons OF supplies from the Set
Elements to the military posts, many of them
in the far interior and at the end of long
lines of communication. The cost of this
transportation was $2,215,969. The Pacific
railroads earned for~government transporta-
ton $722, 1000.
Gen. Meigs reports that the embarrass-
nnent and expenditure caused by the legisla.
ton against Immigrant railroads still con-
tinue, and he again recommends the repeal
of this special legislation, so as to s'leaye
these questions and claims to be settled on
the principles of law and equity decided to
be applicable by the United States supreme
court.'
The southern railroad companies who pur-
chased material from the quartermaster' 3
department under the executive orders of
October, 1865, still owed the United States,
on the LIST of July last, the sum of 81, 500, 677.
Of this sum the Nashville e. Northwestern
railroad, which is insolvent, owes about
5000, 1000, which amount it is not supposed
will ever be paid.
The quartermaster general calls attention
to the inequality of recent legislation on the
subject of officers horses and the hardships
imposed on officers in some districts by
abolishing the issues of fuel. Officers east
of the Mississippi suffer from the first, those

Change at the Halawa Plantation.

KoHALA. HAWAII, Oct. %. 1879.
To The Elitor Of he Pacific Commercial Advertiser :
SIR We learn that the Halawa Sugar Company
property. in this district. together with all its lands
and privileges has been leased for a term Of five
years by d.. Tisdale of Honolulu and DR.. Thomp-
son of K1hala. 1t is an important change, and the
general opinion here is that the Doctors have
struck it rich, as they take the mill and surround
ings in perfect repair and have ESQ acres of cane
ready to grind when their lease begins, and they
have sufficient land now under fence for a plant
every year of 800 acres. with rattoons, which is
tse largest quantity of actual cane land under
fence belonging to any plantation in the district
1t is further understood that DR.. Tisdale has pur-
chased the planting right of Mr.. Chaplin, which
will increase the amount OF cane to be ground at
Halawa mill to a considerable extent.
With the energy the Doctors are reported to
possess, they will no doubt meet with the success
that is predicted for them. PLANTER.

A Geographical Mixture.

Under the head Of Important news from the
East " our contemporary, whose geographical IDEAS
seem to be somewhat hazy, informs US that " the
wars in Zululaud and Afghanistan are oTer; ana
then goes on to inform US that "the news from India
is not 50 promising. The revolution in that country
is not yet suppressed. and it seems as if there would
be bloody work before peace is restored" IL SO
happens that the only war there has been any where
near India is in Afghanistan, where the Gazette as
sures US the war is over. Then in the most be-
wiIdering way it goes on to mix the Burmese up IN
the s~quabble. It is true the British have q few
points at issue with the King Of that country but as
he Is 1000 miles away from Afghanistan, and 60 far
no hand has been lifted against him,-we do not see
how he can be fairly said to have q finger in the PIE.
The real facts of the present aspect Of affairs In
India are IS follows: After completely subduing the
forces Of the Ameer Of Afghanistan, q treaty OF peace
was concluded, and the British troops retired, leav-
ing only Major Cavsgnari as political officer at the
court Of the Amer, and about seventy or eighty
British soldiers as escort. It was then that Russian
intrigue was supposed to have come into play, as
their emissaries were known to be in Cabul, for sud-
denly a large number of the population arose and
attacked the Residency in the dead Of night. Taken
completely by surprise, the garrison speedily fell
victims to the fury of the mob-only two escaping to
tell the tale. Poor Cavagnari-a noble sportsman
and the best political officer in the service of the
Indian Government. was slain and shOckingly mutt
lated.
1t is to avenge this outrage that the present move
ments are progressing. and we cannot help advising
our contemporary in future to refrain from instruct
ing its readers on points wherein it is plain it is
densely ignorant.

A True Republic.

This is the title OF II new work by Albert Stick
ney, recently published by Harper and Brothers,
New York. The design OF the work is to explain
the nature Of the improvements which the author
thinks essential to the completeness OF the Ameri
can system Of republican government. He thinks
that private enterprises OF all kinds are more wise
ly conducted than affairs OF the nation. Indiyi-
duals aud private corporations have little difficulty
in finding good men to do their work and IN hav-
ing their work we'll done. And in these combina-
tious of men and iron and water and steam, there
has been steady progress from good to better
On the other band Mr.. Stickney thinks that in
American government affairs, they begun well and
have even since been losing ground.
Before describing the faults OF the American politi-
cal system, the author sets forth his views of here
ditary monarchy and constitutional royalty. He
is very far from partial to any Of the systems OF the
Old World. He pronOunces hereditary monarchy
as absurd in theory as it has proved disadvanta-
geous in practice. The accident of a birth as a
guide in selecting the rulers OF a nation has been
relied on most extensively of all. but has proved
of all the worst and most deceptive. Macaulay
saws, =. During the hundred and sixty years which
preceded the union Of the Roses, nine kings reign
ed in England. Six of these nine kings were de-
posed five lost their lives as well.as their crowns"
What did this mean? Simply, that the English peO-
pie were compelled to make armed revolution
part of the ordinary procedure under their system
of goyernment-for lack of any other remedy
against the abuses OF royal power.
Under the title of False Republieanism, Mr.
Stickney describes the American system. which he
declares to be subject to a tyrannical domination
of party. In the minds Of the men OF 1857 who
framed the constitution of the United States, one
idea stood out more strongly than any other.
They had seen as they thought the evil of a tyran-
nv Of king and lords. They said, therefore. Z" We
viii have no king, no lords there shall in our sys-
TEN be nothing hereditary; the people shall choose
their own rulers the peoples Offices shall be
used for the peoples service" The result, how
ever. has been a government by party. Party has
chosen the peoples rulers other peoples offices
have been used in the service Of party. Thomas
