That uItra-Tory organ. :" The st. Jsu,es's Ca
zette,' comments in this wise upon the Presidents
Fisheries message:
high standard Of manners would hardly permit
OF such make believe Of defiance but II would appear
that the g heart Of the American people Is not SET
on manners.
Nor is it set on defiance either real or make
believe And yet, as we think our manner-loving
contemporary may be able to recall, it has been
set on defiance in two notable instances. One was
in the year l. 49, and the other in the year sl2.
Il has been set on manners, too but in dealing
with England it hasn't seemed to accomplish so
much by manners as by defiance. At this par
ticular moment, nevertheless, it has strong nclI-
nation in the direction of manners which The st.
James's Gazette will find greatly TO England's
advantage to make the most Of, for the posi-
blities Of the great heart OF the American people,
when it becomes fixed on defiance, were not ex-
hausted either in 1776 or in 1Sl2.
The Anarchists are Free Traders and hearty

"The Liverpool Courier" declares that the Fish
cries Treaty was rejected for no other reason
than that certain person was engaged in it's
negotiation We suppose that Mr.. Chamberlain
must be the certain person" to whom 1.-The
Courier" refers. But no one knows better than
he that such statement Is absurdly Incorrect
1t was rejected because II was bad treaty,
in principle and In terms; because it surrendered
valuable American rights, not treaty rights, nor
conferred rights, but rights which we conquered
with Great Britain and retained in the Treaty of
Separation. This was the only reason Of its
rejection, despite the views Of Mr.. W. II. Hurlbert,
who appears to be quite as useful to his country
abroad as he was at home.
What cares Mr.. Hyman, Of Canada for the
fishery dispute or for retalatory messages, or for
the question of annexation? Probably nothing
comparatively speaking Lyman at present is
floating on a sea of bliss, where aught that has
tendency to cause the brow to corrugate never
intrudes Not a wave Of trouble rolls across
the breast of Lyman. In word, Lyman has
just won the tennis championship of the Dominion.
Even q" The Sum begins to doubt whether that
81 10000 check good enough letter of ac
ceptance. 1t prints the dates of the letters of
acceptance Of Seymour, Greeley, Tildcn Hancock
and Cleveland, showing that they followed re-
spectvely twentyfour, ton, thirtytwo, thirty-live
and forty days after the nomination, and reminds
Mr.. Cleveland that IL Is now more than three
months since he nominated The exact
period is nnetv-sx days The Tribune is waiting
anxiously for that letter. Mr.. Cleveland has been
so long about it that it must mean we are to have
the Greatest Effort of his Life
One of the speakers at the nnti-Hill meeting
said a significant thing. He likened the Demo-
cratic party to a ship overtaken by a storm
and said that if the Democratic ship needs to be
lightened in the Presidential storm, and worth
less nomination of Governor should be made, we
will know what to throw overheard to save the
National ticket" That storm is likely to develop
into hurricane, judging from the stiffness of
the breeze from Vermont
An impression is gaining ground in Nyack that
the burglar that visited that place Friday night
was not o person whose word could be depended
upon. He told Swedish girl whom he awakened
during his earnest search for silverware in Mr..
Harvey's house, Your time has come" BY way
of demonstrating that his statement false that
her time had not come, the plucky girl, undaunted
by the revolver which he eveled at her, seized hold
of the burglar and pitched him down flight OF
stairs. Whereupon, without retractng the false
hood which he had told her. the burglar beat hasty
retreat 1t is to be hoped that " the time' Of this
Swedish girl will be very long in coming. The
earth cannot number among its quick too many Of
her resolute SORT
Senator Blackburn says that the Civil Service"
which he cherishes" Is like that held to and
administered by your own great Governor
meaning David b Hill. Senator Blackburn is an
able and representative Democrat, and there is no
doubt that he reflects the views of n large ma
jority of his party Governor Hill is excellent
representative OF the Democracy, both in his opin-
ions and his character and lie has, at least,
this to his credit that he docs little posing of the
Cleveland sort.
