JOHN BULL STIRRED UP
To a High Pitch, Even to Dying From Ex-
element over the Elections.


LONDON, December 4.-The excitement
caused by the closensss OF the elections is
tremendous Four deaths from excite
ment caused BY politics are reported. Riots
are the order of the day. Mr.. Charsley,
the defeated Tory candidate against Baron
RothschiId in the Aylesbury division OF
Bucks, lies dying at q local hotel from in
iuries received at the hands Of q mob.
Twenty residences Of Tories and the two
chief hotels at Rsdstock, Somerset, have
been destroyed. Scores Of citizens and
policemen have been injured at Worthing,
where the police were stoned. Fifty cas-
naltiss are reported at Wilton. The suc-
cessful Liberal candidate there was beaten
black and blue, aud only by the aid OF an
escort of sixty policemen battling their
way to the station, did he escape being
thrcwn into the river.
NEWLY ENFR4SsHIsED IGSoRANUsEs,
LONDON, December 4.-The st. James
Gazette complains that the Radical dod.
gers have succeeded in securing q numeri-
col victory through the vote Of newly en-
hranchised iguorsmuses. 1t declares that
the result is triumph ofVillage ig gnorsnce
over the voice Of the more inteligently
trained constituents all over England.
The sucidal folly of such an argument as
this needs no pointing out, but it will
doubtless please the fne old crustsd Tor
les, VINO are the sole patrons of the
Gazette.
The Carlton Club has sent forth cir
eular advising Tories to explain thar de-
fea. as follows: The Rictories of the Lib
erals ia the earlier county elections dis.
tur5ed Psrnelps plans. He feared that de-
spite his aid TO the Tories, the Liberals
would o5tAiu q majority which would make
them independent Of him. Therefore he
sought to hedge. He sent letters to the
Liberals standing for the remaining coun-
ty divisions, Offering to swing the Irish
vote over to them if they would give
pledges 10 advocate aud vote for home rule /
tor Ireland The candidates, flushed with |
the victories thus far achieved by Liberals,
declined the bait. The Irish electors were
left uninstructed ss to how they should
vote, aud they did not vote at all" Thus
the Carlton Club claims Mr.. Psrnell
avenged himself on the Tory party for the
alleged bad faith which the Tories dis
played toward him at Liverpool.
The few Psrnelite leaders nov in Lon
don agree that the statement is another
Tory lie. and declare that it has not even
the merit Of ingenuity.
ACAUsE FOR THEIR ENUBERASCE.
The Liberals are shtiekiug with delight
over the defeat OF Sir Matthew Ridley in
the Uexhsm division of Northumberland.
Sir Matthew vas the political secretary OF
the Home Department of Lord Bsscons-
fields Government, and was the man des-
ignated by the Tory leaders, when they
deemed their success certain, to be the
Speaker of the next House Of Commons.
Now he will not be even a member of the
House, unless some warming pan member
can be iGduced to resign q seat in his ia
vor. The Liberal campaign is being con-
duc.e ed with mora yigor and dash as the
end approaches The Liberal orators fre-
quently refer to the tramp of the two mil
hou," meaning the new voters who were
eDftanehissa By the Liberal party. A IA
vcrite song at Liberal meeting is parody
on The Campbslls ara Coming" its cho-
rus beginning:
"we counties are coming, heigho heigho"
