rhe Southwark Election.

The Daily News says that the result of the
Southwark election explains Lord Sallsbu-
ry's unwillingness to consent to dissolu-
tion of Parliament.
The Daily Telegraph says the election
was one of those surprises in the electoral
record which prove how foolish it is to dwell
upon the results Of bye elections.
The Chronicle notes the fact that it was
the result of a Southwark election which
once misled Disraeli. Too much attention,
1t says, should not be given to the present
election.
The Standard expresses surprise and dis
appointment at the result.
Another Home Ruler.
Thomas Ryburn Buchanan, the Glad
stonian candidate, was today elected to the
House of Commons for the west division of
Edinburg He received 1894 votes against
324S for his opponent, Mr.. Raleigh, a Liber-
al-Unionist Mr.. Buchanan was formerly
opposed to Irish home rule, and was elected
to Parliament by the Unionists. Some
months ago he announced his conversion,
and gave notice that on the reaSsembling OF
Parliament he would resign and seek re-
election as a Gladstonian and home ruler
At the previous election the vote was: T.

MR.. GEORGE A. QUAIBY, son of the late Phin-
eas r. Quimby,--over his own signature, and be-
fore witness,-stated, in 1883 that he had In his
possession at that time all the manuscripts writ

falsehoods of parties publicly intimating that
have appropriated matter belonging to the afore-
said Quimby, that viii pay the cost of printing
and publishing the first edition OF those manu-
scripts, with the authors name attached:
pr0Utded,-That am allowed first 10 examine
said Manuscripts, and that | find they were MT.
A. 7. Quimby's own compositions, and not NINE,
that We're left with him many years ago,-or that
they have not, since his death, in 1865, been sto-
en- from my published works; and also, that am
given the right to bring out this one edition under
copyright of the ewner of aid Manuscripts, and
that all the money accruing from the sale of said
book shall be paid TO said owner. Some of Mr.
Quimbys purported writings, quoted by j. A.
Dresser were my own words, as nearly as i can
recollect them.
There is a great demand for my book, Science and
Health. Hence Mr. Dressers excuse for the delay
i'm publishing Quimby's Manuscripts, namely. that
this age is not sufficiently enlightened to be bene-
fitted by them (?)-is lost; for If / heve copied
from Quimby, and my book is accepted, this ac-
ceptance creates a demand for his writings.

A brutal assault was committed at the
Delaware Iron Works ON Monday even
ing upon Mr. Hickman. who has charge
Of the gas at that place. John Gormley,
who was partially under the influence Of
liquor, it is said, approached Hickman,
and in a disagreeable manner complained
OF the gas. Hickman replied that IL
would be impossible TO make the gas any
brighter and that II Gormley was sober
he would see it. Gormley used more pro
fame and abusive language and then
struck Hickman, whereupon the
latter lifted him bodily and
threw him several feet away
Gormley then walked away. Later In
the evening several men shouted to Hick-
man 90 look out, and turning around, he
saw Gormley with heavy piece Of iron
raised to strike him. He warded the
blow of with lever and then struck at
Gormley The blow cut the latter's head
pretty badly aud broke his arm. Another
rough then rushed at Hickman, but with
the aid Of a friend Hickman succeeded In
defending himself against number Of
Gormley associates. Gormley was taken
home in carriage Hickman received a
few slight bruises. Several men after
the fight had ended said that had not
Hickman turned when he did it would
have cost him his life The people of
this city are very indignant at Gormley
and his crowd, as it is not the first time
that he has been the cause Of rows.
