unconscious on the road. He cannot

men, named Hayes and Little. were
arrested yesterday on suspicion Of
having been concerned in the attack.
Some threatening notices have been
posted near Ballyboody cautioning q
tenant farmer in the locality to give up
the farm he lately took on the
estate of Lord Waterpark, for which
he paid a large sum-. The
former tenant had Deen evicted for
o n-payment Of rent. The notices
called on shopkeepers and tradesmen
to refuse to have any dealings with
them. A farmer residing near Clog
heen is at present being 'Boycotted'
because he had taken a farm from
which a former tenant was lately
evlcted Tor nOn-payment OF rent. Ills
goods will not be bought in the mar
ket. Shopkeepers refuse to sell him
anything. His servants have left
him. He can get no one to take their
places. His horses may not be shod
by the smith. In fact, in no way will
anybody have anything to do with
him till he gives up the farm. The
Crown has issued summonses against
thirty six persons who formed part of
the crowd collected at Keskcarrogan
when Michael Barrett, bailif to Phil
ip 0'Reilly, attempted to collect graz
ing rents for a farm surrendered by
a Mr.. Murphy. On the occasion in
question Barrett's horse and car were
turned back by the people. He was
only permitted to pass when an escort
of constabulary arrived. The charge
is for unlawful assembly"

How much longer does a certain
class OF American society propose Ia
inlet arlstocratic p~retenders upon
thepublieY limo one suffered by bogus
lords except those who hold titles and
names 10 reverence such as foreigners
never feel, the behOlders might look
on with cheerful equanimity, for every
one rejoices in the discontinue Of
toadies. When, however. through the
representations OF these worshipers
OF anything calling itself noble, the
bankers, hotel keepers and tradesmen
have 10 suffer, the diversion assumes
the proportions Of a nuisance. ANY
American Of ordinary comprehension
should know that a nobleman in a
foreign land is not going to seek aid
rom strangers if he has any standing
at home. The glamour ola name or
title, however. seems to paralyze the
reason and shreWdness Of the rich
people who cling franticslly to the
outer edge Of polite society. No in.
telilgent foreigner in America is yer
deceived by the pretenders that occs-
slonaly infest our parlors and hotels.
anc there is no respectablereaso why
natives should suffer.

New YORK Herald: The electoral
college have snded their work and it
only remains for congress to declare
the result. One curious thing about
the election is the tendency of voters
to discriminate as to the personal
character Of the electors. Hereto
fore it has always been supposed that
the voter thought Of the candidates
and cared nothing at all about the
electors. Yet we find in California
that the democrats lost one %elector
because they nominated a man who
had ever twenty years ago killed a
democratic leader in a duel. This
elector might have cost them the
presidency. In Illinois We find that
the son of President Lincoln received
a special vote. Possibly some demo
crhH voted for him out of respect to
the memory Of his father. In New
York Clarence A. Seward was especi-
ally honored. The lesson Of this is
that hereafter, in selecting electors,
men Of the highest integrity and repu-
tatiOn should be chosen. 1t will not
do to run such a risk as the demOcrats
incurred in California.

1t begins to be apparent that the
best thing the legislature can do with
regard to the state debt will be to
procure from some Of the more liberal

situation in this state a proposition

and TO come to an agreement and set
Element, leaving the terms open for a
certain time to all Others who may

visions. With such a liberal settle

be strictly just in view of all the cir
cumstances, it will be sustained by
the entire people of the state. II viii
be voted for with almost unanimity,
and this will be a complete guarantee
Of future good faith. The creditor
knows that it is not unreasonable that
he shall bear q part of the burdens
which have fallen upon the estate
from which he is to be paid, while the
debtor ought to know that the creditor
is entitled to have the prospect Of
prosperity and renewed and increasing
wealth also taken into the account.
The first interest payments will be
~burdensome, as all changes in revenue
to a higher rate are. They will be
more easily borne after that. They
should be light at first. IF such a
settlement can be made, with small
bonds to be negotiated at home, the
debt will soon be held in our own
state, and with the reserved right to
take up the bonds in a short space of
time, prompt payment Of interest will
very soon enable the state to procure
the lowest rate of interest paid in the
United States, or at least a rate a very
little lower than that on United States
bonds. Thus making a settlement
and leaving it voluntary with creditors
whether to accept or not we believe
they would accept it. If they choose,
however to differ with us and to trust
to the future, they should and must
be left be left that option, with no
declaration affecting or attempting to
affect the validity Of their bonds.
