The attention of some of the English
officials has been attracted to the large
number OF English people coming to
America. II is notable fact that the re-
cords at Castle Garden, New York, for
1880, show that while Germany and Ire
land lead In contributions TO our pOpu-
laiion, as usual, England contributes
more than Austria. Hungary, Russia,
France and Italy combined. Some Eng
lish officials try TO stop this drain
upon that country's bone and sinew by
attempting TO belitile America Such a
remedy will not cure the
disease. The trouble is at

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-This morning
the agents of the Baltimore s Ohio rail-
road company received notice from the
Pennsylvania railroad company that no

could pass over the latter road, couse-

notice, ship by some other route. All
the freight taken yesterday has been
forwarded, so that merchants need
be under no anxiety with respect
to that, and no freight has since been
taken at the Pennsylvania railroad Office.
It was stated that the B. s. o. rail

There will probably be an election of a

Judges i'm the Legislature.

Police, District and Circuit Judges appear
to regard themselves, and to be admitted as
eligible for the Legislature. The Constitution
prohibits any judge of Court of Record from
sitting in that assembly, and declares that the
executive, legislative and Judicial powers of
the Kingdom shall in their exercise always be
preserved distinct The statute establishing
District and Police Justices is in Chapter XIV.
of the Civil Code entitled, ''Of the Island
Courts not of Record" This Act requires
Police Justices to record their proceedings,
and declares that District Justices shall not
be compelled to preserve any other record
than of their judgments, and that they are not
confined to forms. There is ruling in the
Supreme Court that Police Justice does not
hold Court of Record, although we do not
see how error can lie from either Police or
Circuit Justice except on the record
But without considering this legal question,
there are good reasons why no judge should
be legislator. Voters would not always feel
free to vote against their own Judge as a can
didate, for he might vote against them in
hearing their cases. Besides it is enough for
a judge to be absent from his district for per-
sonal reasons, without taking the time requir-
ed for session. Acting judges are open to
grave objections, and should never be ap-
pointed unnecessarily.
The chief objection, however, is the undue
influence judge can bring to bear on his
election, and that the meaning of the Const-
tuition is that he shall not be both maker
of laws and an expounder of the law.

habits of reading resents the slight deception
