and caused efforts to change the unfriend-
ly tide OF affairs. Scientific men have
been employed to investigate the alleged
hog disease and report the result OF their
investigations. They find that our pork
is not diseased, as stated by articles in
European papers, that there is practically
no hog cholera in this country, and that
trichinosis is mach less throughout the
great pork consuming communities of the
West than in the rural districts Of Cen
trail Europe, where none but native
pork products entered into consump-
ton. Our government has employed
itself in efforts to remove the ini-
mical feeling against our pork in for
eign countries, but as vet with but little
If any effect. The subject is now before
Congress, retaliatory measures are being
considered with view to trying their ef-
ficacy in the abolition of the unjust meas
ures prohibiting the importation OF one OF
the staple products OF the United States.
A curious thing about this hog contro-
versy is the intimation that the snubbing
which Minister Sargent received from
Bismarck is due to the zeal of the latter
in endeavoring to remove the prohibition
in Germany of imports OF American pork.
Mr.. Sargent is Western man and natu-
rally feels the same interest in the ques-
ton that the people of his section of the
country do, and some of his communica-
tons 10 our State Department, intended to
be private. were made public in this coun
try and copied into the papers OF Germa-
ny, where they created quite breeze.
and aroused the ire Of Prince Bismarck
against the American minister. Whether
this be true or not, the American hog is
occupying at this time quite prominent
position before the public. and important
events may depend upon the manner in
which his case may be treated by Congress
and the European governments which I'M
justly exclude him from entering their
ports.

The American hog is creating n good
deal of noise in diplomatic circles There
appears to be concerted opposition to our
pork in many European countries. Osten-
sibly the cause OF this unfriendly feeling
towards the flesh of American swine is
the alleged discovery that it is unhealthy !;
really. however. the trouble is that it COM
petes with the business of meat producers
in the governments that have forbidden
the introduction of our porcine product
The action of the leading governments
in Europe took shape between 1879 and
1881. aud was practically simultaneous in
several countries. Italy was the first. in
1879. TO prohibit the importation of pork
from the United States. The alleged rea-
son was the frequent discovery OF
trichinG in hogs meat coming from
Cincinnati to Italy. Hungary followed
the same year with like prohibition. In
1850. Germany prohibited the Importation
of chopped pork and saussges (but not of
hams or bscon) from America. In 1881,
the French government, a. the result of
the alleged discovery OF trichine in some
salt pork from America. prohibited the
importation of salt pork coming from the
United States. Several other States of
Europe followed the example of France.
Turkey and Greece excluded all pork
products of this country. In Austria
Hungary prohibitory measures We're
promu' gated in 1881. Like pro-
hibitory measures were attempted
to be carried in Belgium aud Switzerland
but the attempt was a failure. There
was some popular excitement raised in
England in 1850 over the question of pro-
hibi,ion OF the importation of pork to that
country. and imports of swine products to
the British islands were tor time check
ed, but no prohibitory legislation ensued.
Late dispatches announce that Greece
has Just annulled her prohibitory meas
ures and will allow the importation of
American pork. With this exception there
has been no repeal of the unfrieudly ac-
ton of the countries we have mentioned
against the pork products OF this country.
OF course this widespread conspiracy
aud war against American swine has pro-
duced some commotion in this country

Hon. Neal Dow had an article in the
Argus Of yesterday in which he contends
with great deal OF force against the as
sumption of George F. Talbot in his re-
cent letter that the use and sale Of intoxi-

Mr.. Dow is most certainly correct in
the ground which he takes. IA any per

OF the people Of this State thirty or forty
years ago well knows. The change in

years has been truly wonderful.

AWAITING THE VEBDICr.
Cor. Cleveland and His Family Rcceivi,sc
Election Retcs.

Election Nelcs.
An Albany correspondent to the New
York World, under date of Nov. 5th gives
the following exceedingly interesting ac-
count of the reception of the election news
by Gov. Cleveland at Albany.
At 4 O'Clock this morning the Governor
babe pleasant good night to the circle of
intimate friends who had waited up with him
TO that small hour, and retired to his room
in the Executive mansion. If his sleep was
disturbed by any unea sy dreams he failed to
show it when he appeared in the breakfast
room a few hours later. Mrs. Hoyt and the
other ladies of the household were awaiting
him, and the family sat down to breakfast
and chatted throughout the meal as pleas
antly and with as little restraint as if there
had not been Pres idential election within
a twelve-month. It is a remarkable family,
this family of Mr. Cleveland's. The Gov
ernor's sisters have the same honest, un-
compromising features that distinguish their
brother. II the heart of the American peo-
pie is open wide to plain, honest, UMPIRE
tending folks, as the Republican party has so
long and earnestly declared, then Grover

Of their own circle these people, who within
brief two years have been lifted from the
level of plain, well-to-do, unpretentious citi-
zens of Buffalo to a position second to that
of no family in America. might be expected,
were it within the possibilities Of their ma
ture, to indulge in some small show of self
glorifcation, pardonable pride and a bit of
ostentation. But neither the Governor nor
any of his immediate kin are Of that calibre.
The same spirit which led Mr. Cleveland to
the refusal of special trains, which caused
him to prefer his old rooms in Buffalo and
the quiet Of a restaurant TO the pomposity of
a public reception at the chief hotel, which
led him to take bis place in the line at the
polls with early morning voters at Buffalo
and to refuse anything like indulgent con
sideration from his fellow men, has been
apparent in all his actions at home during
the trying hours which have succeeded the
closing Of the polls.

land put on his overcoat and, In company

TIE COUNT GOES ON.

The count in New York city drags its slow
length along without making any material
change in results. 1t is a substantial GER
tainty that Cleveland's plurality win exceed
1000. No one is now so insane as to as
sumo that there is any chance by fraud or
tricks or otherwise to reverse the popular
verdict.
Some sensational papers still seek TO mis-
lead by distortlng figures, but they
are mere catch penny affairs. The public, in
this section, have learned TO look to the
GLOBE for reliable intelligence, and the
GLOBE can most positively announce that
George Bliss, Johnny Davenport, O'Brien &
Co., cannot succeed In counting Mr.. Cleve-
land out. The official count is a little tedi-
Gus, but is is coming out satisfactorily in the
end
