England Rejoices

The rejoicing in Kngland over the elcction of Cleveland and the consequent prospect of opening up tliis couotry toher industries, was f ully as great as among the democrats of tliis country. Is not tliat fact suflicient to cominee Americana tliat Cleveland clection his been a step tliat theirnation wlll regret- and d et-pi v regret? It is a suapiclous thing to sce England so interestcd in our aifairs and bodes no good to us. When England rcjoices over the election of a president of the United State?, it means that there is sorae advantage to English people i that election. England bolds millions of dollars ol confedérate bonds, and the tiïuniph of the southern states in the presiden cy looks toward tlie payment of that obligatlon by the people of this nation. Tlie tiiuniph of tbe old southern democratie doctrine of free trade also means millions Of dollars in the pockets of England's manufacturera. Has slie not good reasou to rejoice over the result? This experiment of the people wil] be a costly one. Cutas the people f oot the bilis, and have decided by tbeir votes together with the votes of the late Southern (Jonfcderacy to ïaake it, perhaps they are willing to foot the bilis. The Evening News computa! that the republicans dld not stand by the Irish noininceson tlicir tickets. Itisan unjust accusation and not supportert by facts. But the Irisli did not stand by tlieir tnie interests n this campaign. They preferred to help BrotherBeecher and Harper's tVeekly out of an unpleasant political situation, knówlng well tWe fact that two more bitter encmies to the Irish people, and the Ctitholic religión, uever existed than they. Harper's Weekly has for years enüeavored lo 13 1 1 the minds of the people of this country wltil prejudiee and hatrert of the Irish people and the Pope, by ropresenting them in disgracefnl caricatures, and publisliing bitter and vindicüve articles about them ftom tlie pen of Geo. Vm. Curtís. The Irish were treated handsomely by the republicansin the recent election whereever an opportunity oflered, but they pielerred to remain with the democratie party and ils nt'w couverts. The Nation.'il American Proliibition says: "The St. John people have succecded in putting the party in power that is pledgcd not to vex the dramseller. The prohibitionists have put thelr worst enemy nito power, and now they have absolutely no political influence whlch is worth anything to themselves or to any party. They can get no legUlaturs to Bubmit proliibition except tlirongh the party tbey have just defeated." Capt. Allen is probably defeated by 10 or 15 plurality in tliifi district.
