THURSDAY, AUGUST %, 1855.

From the London Sunday Times, July Is, IssS.
The electoneering campaign in America
ought to be most interesting to the English
people for historical, political, and phiIosoph-
icaI reasons. The main question at
issue IS English Free Trade against the Cont
mental system Of Protection. The Republic is
on trial. Good, conservative government, un-
der Cleveland, IS opposed by the rule and ruin
party of Blaine whose friends nominated Har-
nson. + Thus the American people
are directly involved in the contest through
their pockets, which will be affected by the
tariff, and their future, which would be seri-
ousIy influenced by the restoration TO power
of such fire brand as Blaine, with his home
rule sympathies ard anti-Canadian policy. The
American election is infinitely more important
to Eng.shmen than their own internal politics
Just at this iuncture, and they should observe
every phase OF the campaign closely and un-
derstandngy II is from this point Of view
that the copious dispatches to the Sunday
Times are cabIed. The result of the Amer
can election will help to decide many import
ant issues in Great Britain.

THE able editor of the Gazette sneer-
ingly says he never heard of Gen. Hovey
until he was nominated for Governor OF
Indiana. Not at all surprising. General
Hovey commanded a division at the seige
of Vicksburg, and greatly distinguished
himself at Champion Hills. While these
events were in progress the editor was
more interested in the display of butter
nut ornaments and cheering Vallandig-
ham PROFESSIONS.

TIE story of the veto of the pension
voted by Congress to Mr.. George W. Pit
ner, of Bridgeport, is printed in another
column, and pitiful story it is. This
is a piece of heartlessness that comes
right home to our people. Suppose the
disability of this poor and worthy old
soldier was not directly the result of his
army service, as alleged by our wonder
full President, must he and his family go
to the poor house, while the great and rich
nation which he helped to save is embar-
rassed with the surplus piled in its vaults?
Do we not owe our existence as nation
to George Pitner and men like him? Is
it not an everlasting reproach that a
great and wealthy nation should suffer
men who fought its battles, and to whom
it owes its existence, to want anything?
And vet here is an able bodied $4,000 a
year President higgling and splitting
hairs about allowing a broken down and
disabled soldier the small pittance that
would brighten desOlate old age.
Mr.. Pitner has written a touching let
ter to Congressman Taylor. He must
not despair of the Republic. High above
the higgling and the hair-splitting of an
unsympathetic President may be heard
the majestic voice of great and gener-
GUS people, who mean to keep faith with
the defenders of their flag. There is no
more mistaking its meaning than there
was of the drum beats that responded to
the call to arms. In seven months man
in sympathy with the defenders of the
Union will be in the executive office, and
Grover Cleveland a private citizen.

BRADsTREET's report shows that the
United States purchased abroad more
goods to the amount of $3O,510,O15 in
1887 -S8 than in 1SS6-87. 1t exported
$19, ,160,1S7 worth of goods less in 1888
81 than in 1876. The balance of
trade against this country is $49,73O,132
for the year ending june 30, 1883. With
free trade and the importation of cheap
er made foreign goods without protec-
ton, how long would it be until the bal
ance of trade, as shown by the above
figures, would be doubled, trebled, or
Guadrupled? We could not manufac-
ture to export when the importers could
supply their trade at lesser price than
American manufacturers on account OF
lesser wage basis. The position OF
our country would then be that OF Il
merchant buying many millions of dol
lars worth of goods more than he could
sell. How long would it he before that
would bring ruin and panic2

especially of New York, is the most in
teresting study in American politics.
Castle Garden is. and always has been,
the gateway to America. Into it many
thousands of Irishmen pour annually,
very many of whom settle in the city
Naturalization courts were recruiting
stations of the Democratic party. Ten
years ago an Irish Republican was rare
ly met. Newspapers published especially
in the interest of Irishmen were all un-
der Democratic influence.
Four years ago a break was lead by the
Irish World. Its publisher and editor,
Patrick Ford, is man of great ability,
who takes broad view of the attitude
of parties toward working people. His
ringing and eloquent editorials four years
ago attracted more attention than any
thing else written in behalf of the cleo
ton of Blaine, and to his paper, mainly,
was due the mighty tide of working men
that swelled the Republican vote to a
point which the great bolt of Conkling
and the Mugwumps, with the aid OF all
the newspapers of the city, except the
Tribune, was barely able to overcome
Conkling, Beecher, the Times, Ecentn9
Post, and Harper's Weekly led the as
sault upon the Republican lines. In Mr..
Conkling's county, alone, the Republic
ans lost about 1000 votes. NOthwith-
standing all these influences, which
reached every school district of the State,
the Democrats had bare plurality of
LOO in a vote of 1,250,000.
The World is still in the forefront of
the fight for the dignity of American
labor, and since the Cleveland party has
distinctively taken ground against Pro
tective Tariff, Mr.. Ford has burned the
bridges behind him and is as thorough a
Republican as is Mr.. Blaine. Last week
Mr.. Ford's nephew and son purchased
the FTeemdn's Journal, the most influ'
ential Catholic newspaper in the coun-
trv. and heretofore under Democratic in,
| fluence.
Considering the fact that the Repub
licans of New York State are united as
they have not been since 1880, that Mr.
Morton won his way to the hearts OF
Irishmen by sending shipload of pro
visions to Ireland during the great fam
inc of a few years ago, that Cleveland
has only the half hearted support of very
many influential Democrats, that The
most widely read Democratic paper o.
the city (the S,t1a) is hostile to his re6lec
ton, the formidable and growing revolt
of Irish and other workingmen justilie'
the prediction that the Republicans vii
carry New York by from 25, 900 to 5O,0OC
majority.
The course of the american Celt, pub
Iished at st. Louis, furnishes another con
spicuous example of the drift of opinion
among Irish-Americans. No longer cal
the Irish vote be considered the most i'm
portant contingent of the Democratic
party. 1t is a good for Irishmen and
good thing for America that it is so.

JOHN ADAMS, his son John Quincy,
and Martin Van Buren, were the short
est of our Presidents, and they stood 3
feet 6 inches. Harrison drops one inch
under this. Polk was feet 9, and Pierce
3 feet 10. All the rest from Washington
to Grant were feet or over. Grant was

time all exceed his stature.

THE SURPLUS GOING.

A Washington special to the Cleve-
land Leader of Friday, says:
The Treasury surplus is becoming a
myth. The startling discovery has been
made that instead of there being in the
public vaults a hundred millions or
more, as the country was led to believe,
there are actually but thirteen millions
left of that immense sum. Never be-
fore in the history of the country has
there been such prOiligate administra-
ton. 1t is estimated by members of
Congress who have given the matter at
tention that, taking into account the ap-
preparations which have been made by
the present Congress, including the pub
lie building bills and bills apprOpriating
money that Will in all probability be-
come laws within a very short time, the
expenditures for the present fiscal year
will actually aggregate between fifty
and sixty millions more than they did
last year. The administration is be-
coming alarmed lest the one great issue
on which it was to go before the eoun-
try, and which it designed to offer as an
excuse for introducing free trade, should
be taken away, and the party left to float
along waiting for something to turn up.
The Democratic party, in its national
platform, in the speeches delivered in
Congress and on the stump, has been
preaching the virtue of economy, and
vet its administration has exceeded all
other expenditures by something like
0S nor cent The above facts heran to
leak out in Congressional circles to-day
and caused quite a sensation on the
Democratic side of the House.

SAYS Major Leroy Walker, of Dayton,
o., who served almost three years with
sheridan: "At Chickamauga 1 first
learned how excited man could be-
come. Sheridan in that battle occupied
his old position next to MeCOOk, and
when that unfortunate commander was
broken by LOngstreet the whole weight
of the attack fell on Sheridan. Men
soon began to give way lneyer before
or since saw man so furious. He gal
loped about at full speed among the fug-
itiveS, yelling and curSing, a hole through
his Slouch hat and bullet-mark across
his forehead. He struck men with the
flat of his saber. would rally a squad and
lead it forward, twice picked up eOlOrs
and tried to gather broken regiment,
and altogether looked more like fiend
than a human being. l saw him for
about five minutes and shall never for
get it. His face was positively crimson,
his forehead and cheek were Streaked
with blood, and he was hoarse from
shouting. When it became evident that
nothing could stop the retreat l was
told that he fairly cried, and that he
was so exhausted by shouting that he
could not speak above whisper. Al
ter that engagement he had flag made,
which he called his battle-fag. 1t was
always carried by his personal orderly,
and. whenever he saw line shaking, he
wouId take it from the soldier and ride
10 the point with it himself. Sherldan's
battle-aag checked more than one retro
gade movement, and ShOne brightest in
his last great fight, that of Five Forks"
