Hon. Alex.—Weel, ma gude freen’, what think ye o’ this banqueeting beesness! Sic a daft-like set, to be banqueeting an awfu’ scoundrel lek yon mon. Dinna ye ken hooever, it has a michty effect upon the country. The people are sic awfu’ fules, they really think Jone A. has benefitted the country. (Aside—Alas ! that they should be so near richt.)

Hon.

GENERAL GRANT AND THE THIRD TERM.

Wasurneton, D. C., Dec. 15, 1879.

There may be persons verdant enough stiil to believe that General Grant and his friends are 1.0¢ working for a third term nominstion ; but since the developments of the last fuw weeks they must be very few. Ail their energy and adroitness has been in use ever since he landed in San Francisco to promote that one object, and the shrewd arrangemontof receptions of an ‘unpartisan’ nature, has been made to bear an import- ant part, and one little suspected by many who have taken part inthem. The last announce nent of General Grant’s friends is asequel to the whole. He will nut go to New York now, they say, because he wants to reserve that place as a base of operations for another reception campaign when he returns in the spring.

But I started out to speak of the -most significant characteristic act of this sharp campaign. When General Grant and his party were informed of the death of Sena- tor Chandler, there was much speculation as to who would take his place in various positions, ameng them the Chair-member- ship of the National Committee. General Grant promptly suggested for the latter **Dom Cameron.” There were some in- sinuations about the ‘‘ Cameron ring,” and suggestions of other names, but Gen- eral Grant would not hear to them. With- in afew days General Grant's edict has been put in force so far as it can be. Wil- liam G. Kemble, of Philadelphia, has with- drawn from the Republican Committee, and appointed Cameron as his proxy. They have not even waited f.. the State Com- mittee to elect a substitute, but propose to force the National Committee io assume the the responsibility of legalizing this new assumption of the Cameron clan in Penn- sylvania. There is great indignation among Republicans at this impudent trick, and it may be the means of injuring General Grant. ‘I'he result will be known to many ef your readers bofore this reaches them, but I record the facts just as they appear now.

The House having passed the Pension and Fortitication bills, it is announced that two other bills will be passed before the recess, te begin next Friday. Those are the military, and the Consular, and the

would oblige very much by stating through the columns of your paper the reason that my reply to J. G. Yelland’s letter, which appeared in the ExAMINER some time ago, was not published, as various parties think he has crushed me at once, and that I had neither manliness nor dignity to re- ly. To such 1 would say that [ am pre- pared to defend myself against any charges he may bring against me, either publicly or privately. EpWwIn Cruw. [The reason why Mr. Crew’s letter was not published in Tu Examiner was that it was very long and not of public interest.

—Eprror Examiner. |

The Liberal party in Hngiand is evi~ dently determined to make a_ fierce struggle for the majority at the next gen- ‘eral elections whenever they may oceur. Mr, Gladstone has enterod Midlothian, a Tory stronghold, and commenced his campaigh with a vigor wonderful tor a man of his years, and new Mr. Forster, one of the leaders of the party, is storm-~ ing Westmoreland,with Sir Henry Tuf ton as his eandidate. This country is described as almost as much one of the hereditaments of the Lowther family as Lowther Castle, and not since 1821 has a Liberal member represented the coun- ty. If the Conservative party is not de- feated next year, it assuredly will not be for want of effort on the part of their political opponents to bring about that end, for the war is being carried into Africa with a vengeance by the Liber- als. ‘There will be at least one good result flowing from the bitter and_gen- eral contest, that it will produce a wide- spread thorough discussion of the great political problems which are to be pre- sented to the people.

Tho New York World sys :—‘ Lord Beaconsfield will probably take an early opportunity of familiarizing: the British public with the fact demonstrated yes- terday, at the Dairy Fair, that the best American cheese 1s madein Canada. Since he solaced the British farmer with the prediction that after the Brit- ish farmer had been ruined by the Ame- rican farmer the American farmer would in turn be ruined by the Canadian far- mer, he is pepared to derived great satis- faction from this latter fact. In truth, the Canadian farmer, though American farmers do not go as much in fear of him as Lord Beaconsfield represent, is a highly deserving person, and his mut- ton, as well as his cheese, is worthy of all praise.’

THE ANALYTICAL SANITARY INSTITUTION, 54, Holborn-viaduct, E. C., London, Aug. 18, 1879, report on the ‘‘ Lorne Highland Whis- key ” of Messrs. Greenlees Brothers:—

‘We have visited the bottling stores of Messrs. Greenlees at Gresham- buildings, London, and have selected from the vats, samples of their Lorne Highland Whis- key, and have subjected them to careful ex- amination aud analysis. The samples were pale, showing their freedom from added color- ing matter, “very fragrant, mellow and of pleasant flavor ; in fact, they possessed all. thh characteristics of pure and well-mature Scotch Whiskey of the first qualtiy.”
