According to our London cable dispatch II Is
practically settled that Lord Salisbury snail De
the Conservative leader. His historic ute
social rank and party services have overcome
the staid conservatism of the Duke OF Rich
mond, the marked ability of Lord Cairns and
the cautious disposition of Sir Stafford
Northcote. The Liberals it appears, re-
yard the choice with satisfaction, cal
culating that Lord Salisbury's rank Tory
ism and want of tact will injure hl3
party and repel the support Of moderate
men. This speculation may not be entirely
prudent. Lord Salisbury has in time played
many parts. His submissiveness 10 Lord Bea-
consfeld whom he formerly assailed, and his
crooked ways while at the head of the Foreign
Office show that ne may prove skiliul
tactican when the Premiership Is at stake.
The immediate effect of his leadership may be
to confirm his rival, Lord Derby, in the Lib
eral faith. With Lord Salisbury as chief That
peer coud not consistently return to the Con-
servatye ranks.
The continued hostility Of the State Board
Of Charities to the Charities Aid Association
bill, and the late stage of the session at Al
bany leave but one hope for It's passage and
that is, that members will not allow the quc--
ton to drift into a factous dispute in which
personal influences shall outweigh the merits
of the case. The letter of the Hon. John Jay
10 Miss Sarah NJ. Carpenter which we PRINT
to-day, is an attempt to bring the discussion
back TO its merits, which should receive the
attention Of every member of the Legislature.
The main facts are, that the Charities AID
II l. rffft az 80
visitors TO the institutions only when the state
Board of Charities refused to sanction them
any longer, unless they would agree not to
publish the information acquired without ITS
consent-an obviously dangerous restriction :;
that the Association would stand upon IFS own
responsibility in the matter and would not
involve the state Board; that the application
is approved by MI classes and great numbers
of phiantlropists that it is simply sought TO
extend a power which the Prison Association
has enjoyed for thirty years that the power
asked is needed, for the managers Of charities
have already shown disposition 10 refuse
these privileges of visitation; and lastly and
above all, that it is not an effort Of sclt-scck-
ing of any kind, but simply a petition 10y
earnest Christian men and women that they
may be allowed to 90 on giving their time and
money without reward to the work of chduta-
bic and penal reform. This is the point 10 be
kept in view always.

Senator Brown recently obtained from the
Chairman of the Republican State Committee
of Georgia q certificate of character, in which
il was stated that the Georgia Republicans
voted for Mr.. Brown because, among other
things, he had pledged himself, in passing
upon the Presidents nominations, to vote for
all such as were "honest and competent, with
out regard to their political bearing" After a
promise of this sort, those who are claiming
Senator Brown as against Judge Robertson
ought TO be and perhaps are-cOunting with
out their host.

the negotiations for new commercial treaties
which France is about to begin immediately
with the principal European nations. After

render new ones imperatively necessary.
European commerce may be greatly deranged

Postal Route No. 29,O53 is no more. 1t was
a steamboat route from Memphis to the me-
tropolis of Wittsburg, Arkansas, both of which
places were much better served by railroad
already. The route existed ostensibly for the
sake of six intermediate Offices, whose
total receipts are about 500 year cost of
the route to the Government, $40, 1873 a year.
The Postmaster-General,s strangely enough. con-
siders this extravagant, and thinks q skiff or
a mule could be hired occasionally for less
money. Mr.. James is deficient in imagination,
aud does not appreciate the necessity of build
ing up the country by carrying empty mail

The terrible drouth which has prevailed
this Summer all over the country has been
especially severe in Michigan, occasion
ing the most disastrous forest and prairie
fires, which have destroyed vast quanti-
ties of farm property, crops and forest
tim Der, besides a large number of dwell
ings. The loss of life has been awful and
extensive, and hundreds of families have
been rendered homeless by the devour-
ing element. Aid for the suffering peo-
pie is called for and the call is being re-
sponded to from all parts of the country.
A relief committee in New York has col
lected and forwarded over $4,000, and
subscriptions are pouring in from all
quarters. The details of the scene in the
burnt district, which embraces a large
scope of thickly settled farming country,
and some ten or a dozen villages, which
have been almost totally destroyed, are
frightful.
The following appeal has been teIe-
graphed from Port Huron:
Port Huron, Mich, September IT'D the
american People: We have tonight returned
from the burnt districts of Huron and Sanila
counties. We have seen the burnt, disfgured
and writhing bodies of men, women and chill
dren rough board collins contained the dead
and were followed TO the grave by few blinded,
despairing relatives; crowds of half-starved peo-
pie at some of the stations were asking bread tor
their families and neighbOrs. We hear of more
than two hundred victims already discovered,
and more charred and bloatd bodies are daily
discovered. Already more than fifteen hundred
families are found to be utterly destitute and
houseless. They huddle in barns, in school
houses, and in their neighbors' houses Scorch-
cd, blinded and hopeless, some wander near the
ruins Of their habitations vainly seeking their
dead. Some In specifies agony are wringing
their hands and refusing to be comforted. More
than one thousand people, who only week ago
occupied happy, comfortable homes, are today
honseess and homeless sufferers. They are
hungry and almost naked when found, and in
such numbers and 20 widely scattered that our
best efforts and greatest resources fail to supply
their wants Without speedy aid many will
perish and many more will suffer and become
exiles Our people will do their utmost for
their relief, but all our resources would fail 10
meet their necessities. We appeal to the charity
and generosity of the American people TO send
help without delay.
