Mr. Smalley telegraphs that the chances OF
the Liberals have improved during the week.
and that the leaders are confident OF success.
While Mr.. Gladstone Is doing battle like e
giant in the North, and the OppOs ton is pulling
itself together in England, it stl seems probable
that the canvass will result in the return OF a
Conservative majority, especially as there are
grave defects in the Liberal organization. y
general election however, sometimes leads to
startling surprises Mr. Gladstone's appeal to
the country, six years ago, proved that there
was a genuine Conservative reaction among the
middle classes, and that the results of household
suffrage had been unfavorabe to the Liberals
The force of these tendencies was not apprc-
ciated until the elections were held. In Ike
manner there may be now popular revolt
against q foreign policy which has multiplied
the foreign obligations of the mother state
without promoting the safety of its dependen-
cies or the welfare of Christendom. We GER
tainly hope that this will be the case. We fear

The fate of the President of the Louisiana
Savings Bank will surprise charitable COM
munlty like our own, in which enlightenment is
dealt with as an irregIilarity due to personal
eccentriciy or defective bookkeeping. This
gentleman having been convicted Of appro-
priating to his own use the funds of the bank, is
now scntesced TO the penitentiary for three
years at hard labor. The judge and jury seem
to be unable to discriminate between so high
toned an accomplishment as embezzement and
so coarse and vulgar crime as burglary. AT
this rate they will soon be suspecting their pol
itical witnesses of perjury.

The Democrats have had such bad luck in all

that they are entitled to make the most OF any

great victory. Not over their enemies, but over
themselves! On the general principle that he

throughout the country are invited by the
