New York, Nov. 1.-The Times
prints an interview with representative
men interested in the national tariff
convention to be held here on the Goth
and Both inst. The gathering promises
TO be large and influential. Assurance
has been received from various branches
Of industry that the interest is increas-
ing, and that delegates will be sent
from the iron,, steel, copper and brass
manufactures, and Of wool, hoisery,
malt growers, potters, paper makers
and other interests in various parts of
the country from Maine to Michigan.
The Times says editorially: One of
the principal motives which appear to
guide business men in their support Of
the tariff commission is the desire to
get corrected the anomalies and incon-
sistencies Of the tariff; but, says the
Times, IL the general interests of the
country are to be considered, the only
revision which can do any real good
will te in the gradual but certain and
considerable reduction, and that is not
the purpose Of those who advocate the
commission.

London, Nov. 1.-The following
proposition for meeting the effects of
the mo rent" proclamation appears in
the Times editorial: at would be too
much to hope that an attempt to en-
force the mo rent" policy, will not be
made possible, on any considerable scale,
but tnon-payment of rent must be follow
ed by eviction, unless infectious, one dar-
ing refusal is to run through the whole
district. The government has pledged
itself in the recent proclamation to use
all the resources at its disposal, in en-
forcing legal right, but it is not for the
government to initiate evictions, or
follow them up. Landlords must COM
bine and subscribe to carry into effect
measures, or success of which their
property depednds. Agitators are now
telling tenants that landlords are
bankrupt and the property defence as
sociation and emergency committees
must fall to the ground, If the tenants
only hold out little longer. 1t is for
the landlords to show that this counsel
rests on miscalculation and If necces-
sary they will not appeal in vain. We
are sure of the liberality of
those Of their own class in England,
where tennant who persist in refusing
payment, in persuance of Parnelt's or
ders, are evicted. There ought to be
some arrangement for getting lands at
once under some cultivation by en-
ployment Of. emergency men,"if 9TH
er agents cannot be found, il necces-
sary. Tenants could probably be
brought from the north into Munster
and Connaught. The government
would be bound to give them protec-
tion to. the utmost Of its power, and
punish by every means, attempts to in
timidate them. We do not believe
when once the breaking of the. land
league Organization had begun by direc-
tion of the comfortable tenants the rest
would be able to resist temptations in Sc
curing their rights in their farms and Of
competing for those located by their
neighbors. Those who were foolish
enough to face eviction would find that
they had irrevocably lost their privileg-
90 as peasent tenants and that the sale
Of their interest had handed over their
property, and the land act gave them

Washington, Nov. There has been
several applications at the treasury de-
partment recently by persons to make
contracts to collect for the govern
ment the balance remaining in the bank
of England to the credit of the defunct
confederate states. Agar of Washing
ton. had a contract Of this kind
with Secretary Sherman. This con-
tract expired last September and Agar
failed to get the money, and said this
money was deposited in some peculiar
manner and controlled by five trustees
who now collect the interest annually,
and that JEFF Davis and Judah P. Ben
jamin are two Of these trustees. 1t is
with the hope of getting this money
that English capitalists are buying con-
federate bonds, and that Benjamin has
been retained by these capitalists as
their lawyer, and he thinks he can re-
cover money in payment of confeder-
ate bonds. Solicitor Raynor of the
treasury intends to call the British gov
ernment's attention to the money in
view to recovering for the United
States.

London, Nov. 1.-The international
arbitration and peace association passed
a resolution to-day recording its satis-
faction with the saluting of the English
flag at Yorktown; such an incident, the
resolution says, is unparalleled in his
tory, and must remain deep interna-
tional interest. 1t regards the act as a
weighty and significant testimony to
eternal oblivion Of any animosities re-
sulting from the war of independence,
and as an emphatic expression of
brotherly love existing between Eng
land and America.

Madison. Ind, Nov. 1.-The EUes-
ing Courier contains a retrospect by
Ex.-Goy. Hendricks of his senatorial
career. Hendricks regards Beverly
johnson as the ablest lawyer in the
senate during his term. Charles Sum-
ner succeeding in having more of his
views embodied in the laws of the
country than any other man. Mac
Dougal of California excelled all in
gem-like speeches made on the spur of
the moment. Henry S. Lane of Indi-
ana had few superiors as an orator.
Gov. Grimes of Iowa, was as pure a
man as ever entered public life. Gov.
Collamer of Vermont, was remarkable
for his ingenuity in debate. Anthony
never gave offence, and was highly sue
cessful. Buckallew was a debater Of
rare force, and produced during the
stress of his senatorial duty the ablest
book on minority representation. Gar
rett Davis was the most fearless de-
batter he ever saw, but not always con-
sistent. Doolittle of Wisconsin, was
the finest orator. Fessenden of Maine,
was the ablest senator his state has
produced. He never left a point unan-
swered, and was the readiest man in the
body. John p. Hale was brilliant, but
not studious, and repeated himself.
John Sherman was prepared for action.
Gov. Morton was an able leader, but
extreme in his expressions; strength
and earnestness were his peculiarities.
