ginian BY birth, man OF intellectual ability
and great learning, was elected Governor OF
Illinois. This election seems in the light of
history to have been almost proyidentiaI. 1t
was at that date that the combined effort was
made to change the Constitution OF the State
SO as to admit the institution Of negro
slavery- The active opponents Of this scheme
were few, but brave and resolute, aild their
head was the newly-elected Gov. Coles. The
history Of that struggle, with its uncertain
tics aud doubts, is graphically toll By NJ:
Wasfburlle in the volume just issued By tl,ll.
The book is valuable because OF its sketches
Of tine lives Of the several actorsin the events
employed BY the men who then
governed the State. The volume is
embellished by letters from Jefferson
and Madison to Gov. Coles, ami by corre-
spnudellce with distinguished men Of va

MILLER's ASSOCIATION.

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 2.-The Miller's As
sociation to-day passed resolution asking
the chamber of commerce to enforce the
rigid inspection of wheat, as a vast quanti-
ty ofswheat is coming in from. the North
west, which, while it looks fair and grades
No. 2, and even No. /, is badly injured by
rain, is damp, tough, and totally unfit for
-four. The association also telegraphed as
follows:
To tie lH5ller's association Of Minneapolis.
At a meeting of the millers of. this city
to-day, it was resolved that owing to the
unwarranted condition of the wheat mar
ket, it was resolved that owing to the I'M
warranted condition of the wheat market,
which is manipulated in fhe interest of
spectators and against all legitimate busi-
ness, we believe it to be for the interests of
the smillers of the country to make common
cause and shut down their mills until the
price of wheat shall be at figure to COM
pete with the markets of the world. All
mills here have shut down and invite your
cooperation.

MR. raKNELL.s ADVICE.

LONDON, Nov. 3.-The editor of the
Dublin Ffsesaan,s Journal, in publishing
Mr.. Parnells letter, stated that he was
compelled to omit portions of it in view OF
the governments proclamation of the Land
League. 1t is understood that the portions
omitted are as follows: 1.-THE only organi-
zation now practicable is that the tenants
should meet by estates when summoned to
pay rent, and decide upon common action
as recommended in the League manifesto.
The time has now come for the people to
choose between the Land Court ana the
League. We viii devote our resources to
the support of those who stand by the
principles of the League, but we cannot do
anything for evicted tenants on those
estates where their fellow-tenants on the
same estate are unmindful of those prin-
ciples. We-have theEefOre directed the
custedians of our relief funds to refuse
help to tenants on any estate where the
rest of the tenants have either applied to
the Land Court to fix their rent or who
have paid rents We recommend evicted
tenants to continue to rely on the League,
and not to waste their slender resources in
q useless legal strlisgle" ~ A#

LONDON, Nov. 2.-The Conservative
gain in the municipal elections are SO; the
Liberal gain 45. The most important
changes ism Standing Bridge, where the
Conservatives gained six seats. They
gained four in Oldham, three in Cardiff
and three in Liverpool, The foregoing re-
suits are probably attributed to the Irish
vote, but the Conservative gains are pretty
evenly distributed among towns of large
Irish population and those of purely
English.

ton, and defense by Totten, Wilson, Shella-

ARGUMENT WAS OPENED -
by jeremiah M. Wilson. He recited the
steps already taken in the case and. said
there could be no authority found in any
statute for filing criminal information.
He challenged counsel on the other side to
point to any such statute If it could be
at all it could only be filed because Of its
being authorized byleommen law. There
had never been in this country prosecu-
ton by information, except in the case of
MINOR OFFENCES,
such as violations of revenue laws, where
that mode of proceeding, has been express
" authorized by statue. The grand jury
was the only recognized authority for the
prosecution of parties for crime, but If this
proceeding should prevail, grand juries
might as well be dispensed with in the
future. But if prosecution relied on COM
mon law, then they must be bound sbysits
rules. g. %
In this case the court was asked to allow
this information to be filed and warrants
issued on affidavits Of the postmaster
general and Woodward. He argued that
not single fact YVES proved onthem, there
was nothing in them but information and
belief from beginning to end There was
nothing but hearsay in them, and he had
never heard of anybody being indicted

THE MECHANICS BANK.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2-The Graphic says il
is known that Baldwin, the cashier of the
Mechanics Bank of Newark, lost q great
deal of money in coal shares about the time
coal was high, and he has been dabbler
in Wall street for great many years.
Sometimes he made money, but he was
oftener loser and was frequently robbed
by professional pointers and biackmailers.
The wrecking of the Newark Bank
seems already forgotten affair,
a Washington correspondent says the
bank defalcation caused the President &c
call the attention of the acting secretary Of
the Treasury to the system of banking
examinations. He says the Newark defal
cation shows either that the bank examin
ers are deficient, or their inspection Of th'

he maintains he cannot justly be- charged
with abandoning the cases or shrinking
duty in ninsisting upon leaving the Cabinet
The president is, undoubtedly, desirous OF
holding Mac Veagh until these cases are
disposed of, and does not intend to lei
James leave the cabinet until the route
prosecutions are ended. The apparent di-
litoriness on the part of the prosection has
the effect of awakening suspicion here
that the prosecutors do not regard the
evidence se.strong as they have stated.
All seeming hesitation ON the part of the
government renders the defendadts more
defiant than ever The defendants are
saying that Mac Veagh has run and James
is preparingto back out by. leaving the
cabinet in a month or two.

General Hazen notes the deductions

and says, If the result of these studies is
sufficiently successful indications will in

especial attention to the value of the river
reports, and says the opinion is again ex-
pressed that with proper study Of river
floods and with stations properly placed
at times of special danger, tt can
be made impossible for food to follow
