WASHINGTON, April 19.-Dispatches received az

this evening, say that the elections Of delegates 10
the State Convention held thus far indicate mnch
stronger popular sentiment in favor of Secretary
Sherrnan's candidacy than the public has been led
TO expeet The election took place in Columbus
yesterday, and the vote was Overwhelmingly
in favor Of Secretary Sherman, 91 sherman
delegates ont Of 99 having been chosen. Inc

solid Sherman delegation to the State Convention
General Beatty's ward in Columbus went for sher-
man three to one. The delegations from the VlIlth'
IXth and XVIII Districts are also said to be nearly
unanimous for Sherman.
Ex-Governor DennisOn, IN telegram to a frend
of the Secretary of the Treasury, says: The
Beatty movement in Ohio is failure. The friends
of Mr.. Sherman here are confident that there will
be no division in the delegation to Chicago ana
that good feeling has been maintained by the
friends of Mr.. Sherman toward the friends OF Mr.

BRITISH COLUMBIA.
A sudden Thaw and High water

VICTORIA, December 9th.-On Monday the
ice cakes were piled upon Fraser river near
Chiliwack to hight of 20 feet, blocking
navigation and stretching clear across the
stream from bank to bank. The cold until
that day had been intense for nearly a week.
On Sunday night the south wind breathed
softly and sweetly upon the land, and great
thaw set in. The snow on the mountain
sides melted and almost Immediately every
rivulet became a mountain torrent and small
creeks rushing rivers. Before daylight on
opened, and the Fraser and its tributary
streams were booming. The rain continued
for 40 hours. The district roads were flooded
and bridges and corduroys damaged or de-
stroyed. The streets of New Westminster
became swift water-courses, and to add
to the general discomfort many of the
water-pipes burst and did considerable dam
age to the dwellings. Among the rivers af-
fected by the freshet was the Coquillam and
tributary, that enters Frazer river few
miles above Westi, town on the Coquillan.
The Government dredger and the stern
wheel steamers Reliance, Royal City and
VIM. Irving went into winter quarters a
couple of weeks ago, and the rapid rise on
Tuesday caused the dredger to part from her
mornings and sweep down upon one of the
stern-wheel boats, tearing her from her fast
enings. The dredger and the stern.wheeler
then bore down upon the remaining boats,
broke their cable, and the fleet swept into the
main river amidst the ice foes. The tide was
running in at the time, and the boats were
proceeding up stream at rate of four miles
per hour when last seen. The steamers Gem
and Princess Louise, with crew of men,
proceeded to the rescue from New Westmin-
ster On Tuesday night it was reported that
the wheels of all the steamers had been dam
aged somewhat, but as the ice was rapidly
disappearing at the latest accounts no serious
injury to the hulls was feared.

g to justice, as they have done heretofore.
g But it is evident that the penalty i'm
"posed upon repeated intrusion into the In
" dian Territory, which penalty consists in
ga mere fine, and is difficult of en-
"forcement, is not sufficient to
!" deter lawless characters from such under
" takings. l concur with the Commits
"sioners in recommending that law be
"passed adding the penalty of imprison-
tment to that OF fine. If this is done in
4" vaders will know that such attempts are
" not without serious risk to them"
There can be no doubt that the law requires
to be made more stringent. for it is clear
in any appreciable degree, and in fact their
persistence shows that they expect to tire cut
the Government, and to be finally left
secure in their stolen possessions, The in
adequacy of statute which attempts to
meet such inyasions by the imposition
of fine is apparent, and its futility is
enhanced by the difficulty of enforcing
even this trifing punishment. Mr.. Schurz
may be right in recommending imprison-
ment, but it would be hard to imprison two
thousand men, whichis said TO be the number
of the present expedition. Something, how
ever, must be done to put a stop to these
incursions into the Indian Territory, or it
will become impossible for the Govern
ment to carry out any intelligent policy in
regard to the Indians. The latter OF
course will not believe that the President
is powerless to check these marauders and
they are very apt to reach the conclusion
that the raids are only in the usual line of
Government duplicity and bad faith. Per-
haps if the lawless freebooters who go
upon these expeditions were to receive a
sound thrashing at the hands of the United
States troops, it would do more to cool
their ardor in the pursuit of land-stealing
than any apprehension of fine or imprison-
meut

BUcKNgR's FUNDING BILL.

Bucknel's funding bill is preposterous
affair. He proposes to pay off the fves
and skies which mature next year by issu-
ing six hundred millions of treasury notes,
bearing four per cent. interest. He also
proposes, on the Greenback plan, to APP.
propriate all the money in the Treasury
but one hundred thousand dollars for the
same purpose. By these brilliant measures
he thinks to initiate the currency and
abolish specie payments at one and the
same time, and thus to bring the whole of
the currency by single mastery stroke
into worse condition than it ever reached
at the height of the rebellion. Mr.. Buck.
ner is certainly shining financial light
and vindicates the wisdom of the selection
which made him Chairman of the House
Banking Committee.

THE ELECTORAL COUNT.

The debate on the method of counting
the electoral vote is evidently being con-
Quoted, at least on the Democratic side,
spon a purely partisan basis. The Demo-
Gratis, having control of the House, insist
that the count should be so managed as to
give the House the disposition of the re-
suit in the event of conflict. The Repub-
lican arguments directed against this posi-
tion have been very much the more
weighty and logical, and they have in fact
shown the Democratic attitude to be with.
out constitutional support. The misfor.
tune of the situation, however, is that the
language of the Constitution is not deter.
minative of the method to be followed.
1t is in fact singularly loose and vague !:
so much so that room is afforded for the
most opposite theories, and warrant is
given for just such partisan discussions as
are now proceeding. Robeson's amend.
nnent to the concurrent resolution seems
to be fair and safe, and it cannot be OBJ.
iected to on any constitutional grouzd.
It is, however, not probable that the Dem
ocrats will agree to it. though there is
certainly no visible advantage possible to
them from any other arrangement. Their
contentious attitude would almost justify
a suspicion that they meditated some
trickery. but had this been the case they
could not have kept it secret SO long.

THE Gotta CASE.

They have quite an interesting inteyna-
tional difficulty at San Francisco just now.
Application was recently made by the
Mexican Government for the extradition
OF a Mexican named Gotta, charged with
rebellion against the Government, ma
rauding, and such Mexican escapades.
Governor Perkins acceded to the appli-
cation, the necessary papers were made
cut, and Gotta, being arrested, was handed
over to the Mexican Consul at San Fran
cisco, and by that official transferred to the
Commander of the Mexican gunboa5 Demo-
crata, then lying in the harbor. At this
point Gotta sued out writ OF ha6eGS cor
Jas. but when the Court issued its process
for the production of the body of the
petitioner, the Mexican Consul and Com.
mande1 refused to acknowledge the juris-
dietion of the Court, pleading that the
gunboat was technically within Mexican
jurisdiction, and, in fact, part of the
Mexican Republic. Thereupon the Court
directed the Sheriff to arrest the Com
mander of the gunboat and Co bring Gotta
on shore. This the Sheriff attempted to
do, but as the Commander trained gun
upon his boat, and allowed no one to &C.
company him on board, and as when he
sought TO arrest the Commander the
latter retired into his cabin and placed
himself under the protection of marine
with loaded musket and fixed bayonet,
the Sheriff was compelled to return empty
handed, and to report that the Mexican
authorities had once more been guilty
of contempt of Court. Subsequently.
however, the Mexican Consul brought
Gotta on shore, and delivered him into the
hands of the police, to be locked up until
he could be produced in Court. Thus the
immediate purpose Of the Court is served,
but without determining the question of
jurisdiction. OF course in a case of this
kind it is necessary to consider how the
rules which we propose to insist upon
would operate upon our own interests were
the relations of the governments reversed.
Gotta certainly came lawfully into the
hands of the Mexican authorities, so far
as they were concerned Whether the
State authorities were justified in surrender
ing him is quite another question, though
1t may prove very important one. It is
evident that the Mexican officials have no
desire to embroil themselves with the
United States, or they would not, however
informally, have responded to the process
of the Court. Our own authorities, how
ever, ought to see to it that Mexico is not
embarrassed or blamed because of possible
mistakes on the part of the State.
