Had the contest in the South Riding been confined to local men, the Union triumph would have been still more complete. Even as it was, the Union candidate, Mr. Frask !vno-.hd.â€"ju:kydlumlh Inc. tionist, Mr. Rastars, and in the contest for the prestige of his great name, and his bonsts of unlimited money ‘influences, got in by a majority of seven, which would. have been reduced to two had Mr. Har1 not permitted fixe votes to be polled for him in the Town ship of Brant. The two Redingsof Bruce are therefore represented by Unionists in the Commons, and Factionists in the Legislative Assembly ; though Mr. Braxe‘s victory is not one of which he has much reason to be proud. o oR We are glad to notice ‘that Mr. Auit has lost nothing of the confidence of his old sup* porters, having been returned by a very large majority.. His opponent, though a Union man, was new to pnbfio life, â€" Mr. Corquâ€" wous, who has been elected for the Local, is a firm supporter of Mr. Saxpyizio Macvoxâ€" ALD‘s Government. * Tuz electionsin Bruce furnish "food for reflection,‘" In the North Riding, where as a matter of fact the Clear Grit element in forâ€" mer years largely predominated, the factionâ€" ists took very early action, and published a mamifesto pitching into Lower Canada and the Maritime Provinces, and threatening that the latter state.should be worse than the forâ€" mer, unless their party were allowed to dictate terms to the whole dominion. This, if we mistake not, was in the early part of the reâ€" organising movement, before the great conâ€" vention had been held, or even.gublicly an nounced. The address of the North Bruce convention was published by the Globe, and pronounced ‘** admirable." _ We also comâ€" mented on it at the time, calling attention to the revival of sectional strife which it was ealculated to provoke. At this convention mons, and Mr. Stxcraum for the Local. It was doubted if any champion of Union would dare to give them ‘battle, but Cart. Srroat, of Southampton, ventured on the contest for the Commons, and though Mr. Sixcrarm, an unadulterated factionist, was elected by Carr. Senoat, the Congervative Unionist, was returned for the Commons by a majority of ten, the vote being Srroat 862, Doveras 852. R Itr will be noticed that the Centre Riding of the County of Wellington has been carried by a Conservative majority of 58. Two Reformâ€" ers went to the polls, but neither of them were factionists properly pronounced, as the convention candidate, Dossty, was withdrawn at the nomunation, his prospects of success having vanished sometime before. _ + Wz publish this morning a letter from Mr. Hopsox of Bedford, Nova Scotia, on the sub. ject of the currency to be, in the future, used in Canads.. That a measure having for its wbject the establishment of an uniform curâ€" rency throughout the country will be among theearliest questions of internal reform and consoludation submitted toâ€"the new Legisla ture, we have every reason to believe. But whether the standard of money value at preâ€" sent represented by the "dollar,"" a coin which we do not as yet possess, and the " cent," an insignificant number ot which circulates in this part of the Dominion, chi¢fly held for proâ€" tection against petty shaves at the postâ€"offices, brokers counters and other places where the *pound offlesh," â€" and nothing less, will be taken, is entirely another question. â€" The * currency‘‘ must therefore be provided, and whether as representing our present standard, or a decimal system based on the value of the pound sterling at 500, instead of at about 484 as it is now, is thé real question raised by Mr. Hopsox ; for there can be no special object in starting from ten shillings sterling, a sum which is itself a decimal of Ahe pound, and represented in the currency, when at all, by the half sovéâ€" *mnfinndifinfl to the at 12 noon every Friday.

We profess n> great profundity of knowâ€" ledge on this subject, which has muddled, and almost addled, some of the wisest_ heads among modern economists; but we think it is the duty of the press to bring the question before the public tnat it may be thoroughly discussed. â€" Whether any higher denomina tion than the dollar will find favorwith the country may Tairly beâ€"questioned ; but if it does, it should not stop short of being equivâ€" alent to the pound sterling, that is if our We notice that Mr. Coox, the member elect for Dundas for u.’ Legislative Assembly of Ontario, issued a card during the canvass statâ€" ing that the charges,preferred against him of being a member of the " Brown," or factionâ€" ist party, was © a base slander.""

Mr. Looxt, the member elect to the same House for North Simcoe, though also claimed as a factionist, pledged himself to support the Local Cabinet. been clected, and that Mr. Blake for the ‘Asâ€" sembiy hadanoverwhelming majority. We are very glad to find, howéver, that our triend Mr. Francis Hardon, a Conservative Liberal, and a strong Union man, has been clectod to the Commons, and that Mr. Blake, with all his boasting about his income of twentyâ€"five thouâ€" sand dollare per anaem, was returned. by only T vates â€"frogs x»> |#Right to be deducted the Ove s« s« Mall, inaving the fuctionists a majurity ol two. ‘These are the figures at the close of the polils, copted from the Glotr : you Tus comwoye. Special to the Truzs. There is, of course, the objection that this would slightly disturb our rate otf exchange with the United States; but, as remarked by Mr. Hopsox, it would harmonise _ it .with . Great _ Britain. Commercial men are of course the only ones capable of profiouncing upon the relaâ€" tive value of these propositions ; but as uni formity of par value between us and Great Britain would give us an ea«y means of exâ€" change with the whole world, and to a greater extent than would uniformigy with the Uni. ted States, we should, we'\::%',(pnfer, as a matter of. interest, and certainly as a matter of taste, uniformity with Britain. qurrency is tonfling at all. And we think, while believing this to be the simplest<and most effective means of abolishing the @"silver nuisance," if it is not adopted, that "nuisance‘"‘ should be effectually and proinptly dealt with by sow.c other means. The real question to be determined, then, is whether our new currency, when weget it, shall in its wnfitfltdlenominuiqn represent the five hundredth part of the pound sterling, as Mr. Hopsox contends ; or the tour hundred and eightyâ€"fourth part of the pound, and the one hundredth of the American dollar, according to our present system of value. We coniess our preference of Mr. Honsox‘s plan, and chrefly for a reason which he has not given in its favor. By reducing the actual value of our nomunal dollars and cents toa fraction below American coins of the same denominaâ€" tion, we think an effective check wouli be immediately and permanently given to the immense business of brokerage in silver which has goune on ever since the inflation otf the American currency by the necessities of war, and which if not checked by some legial&lne process is likely to go on for ten years to come, to the great loss of the industrial classes who are the principal, and always the ultiâ€" mate sufferers. . By thus reducing the value of out new coins, we would as nearly as posâ€" sible equalise them with the current value of American silver eoins in the markets of the world, so that all attempts at extensive tradâ€" ing on the " silver nuisance‘‘ would be effecâ€" tually abated, and by a process the most legitimate, as these coms might then be cirâ€" culated without loss to any one.

' yq It. appears to have hecome imperative upon us to have a uniform system of currency for the whole Dominion ; and as all our present systems are more or less faulty, chiefly owing to our being compelled by: circumstances to use coins notsuited to work harmoniously with our mode of accounting by dollars and cents ; and as, at the same time, these very coins are so perfectly decimal, and half deciâ€" mal, one of the other, as that a decimal mode of accounting could very easily be arranged to suit them. It certainly would be wiser for us to found a wniform and complete system of decimal currency upon the decimal properties of the coins we have, than to adopt any other mode orsystem of decimals which may require the assistance of new coin:lo make it work well.

Now the fact is that there is no suck article in the London Times of the 4th instant ! o Sin,â€"A newspaper paragraph (originating, I have no doubt, in some innocent mfle), to the effect that I am much out of health, has become widely circulated, both in Engâ€" land and abroad, and has brought many inâ€" quiries upon me. Will you allow me to state in your columns that the statement is wholly destitute of foundation, and that I never was better in my life ? * Sir,â€"One would think, on,‘ruding the exâ€" tract from a recent number I:f the London Times which the Citizen publishes in its first column "this morning, that the Citizen subâ€" scribed to that paper. However, that can‘t be, otherwise it would not also have printed the silly item about Charles Dickens being in & critical state of health, which has recently been going the rounds of the press. The Lonâ€" don Times of the 4th inst., contains the followâ€" ing letter from Mr. Dickens himself: __ Crarues Dickess. Gad‘s Hill Place, Highamâ€"byâ€"Rochester Kent, Sept. 2.â€"Times of 4th Sept. To the Editor of the Truxs To the Editor of the Truxs CORRESPONDENCE. CHARLES DICKENS. Faithfully yours, But what, after all, is the basis of the Ameriâ€" can Government‘s complaint on the score of this recognition of the belligerent ‘rights of the South? It is that it was «unnecessary and premature." What in some places Mr. ‘Beward has termed "a civil war" is now miâ€" nimised for the purposes of his new argument Into " a domestic disturbance, which, although it had severe pecullarities, yet was, in fact only such a seditious insurrection as is inciâ€" dental to national progress in every state." It was British intervention, as expressed in the recognition of the belligerent rights of the South, which raised that trifling © domestic disturbance" into "a social war.‘" It leut to it, Mr. Seward contends, countenance, aid, and support. Itgave it the status of a political power. ‘TheGovernment of the United States could have dealt with this "domestic disturâ€" bance*‘ casily enough but for England, which‘ gave to ‘it the prestige of "‘an armed, lawfol insurrection, on an equality with the United States." ‘This, says Mr. Seward, was the effect of the action of the British Government at a time " while as yet the civil war was undeâ€" veloped, while the insurgents were without any organized military foree or a treasury, and long before they pretended to have a flag, ‘ or to put cither an armed ship, or even a merâ€" ‘ chant vessel upon the sea."> ‘The reply to all | this is obvious enough, for Mr. Seward begs the whole question when he starts with the allegation that the Queen‘s proclamation was "unnecessary and premature." Her Majesty‘s government hold the exact contrary, and it is not within the province of any foreign power to call into quesiion the mode in which they have exercised what Mr. Seward admits to be their undoubted prerogative, of deciding the exact period in which the attitude of this country towards two o,umfin‘ sections shall beideâ€" fined ncon the basis of international Lv. That which we did we did in the exercise of our right ; whether our action was "unnecesâ€" sary or premature" is a matter in which we are by no means bound to accept the dictation of the Washington Cabinet, although backed by the threat that we may be called upon "to justify it or render redress or indemnity." . Of course Mr. Seward does not seriously mean a tithe of what he says ; but whata pity it is that he should say it! _ 3 s Waiving this point, however, Lord Stanley has a very substantial reply even upon the merits of the case. How can it be truthtully allege1 that the Queen‘s proclamation acknowâ€" ledging the belligerent right of the South was @unnecessary or premature ‘ when it followed, [From the London Herald, September 4.] The practical result of the correspondence between the Foreign Ministers of England and the United States upon the subject of the Alaâ€" bama claims is, that the settlement by arbitraâ€" tion, originally suggested and pressed upon our government by Mr. Seward, is hindered, and, perhaps, rendered impossible by the introducâ€" tion of a new condition which England cannot posâ€" sibly eccept. It must be clearly understood that the offensive proposal to include in the matters for arbitration the right of this counâ€" try to recognize the Southern Confederation as a belligerent power is an entirely fresh stipulation. It has no direct or essential conâ€" nection with the Alatems claims, and could only complicate the discussion of the question out of which.they arise. It is fair to presume that Mr. Seward bas but recently arrived at this conclusion. He has complained of this act of the British Government freely enough, but he bas never, until within the present year, even suggested that it constituted a point of difference which could properly be associated with the Alabema claims for the adâ€" {'udiention of an arbitrator. Throughout his engthy and animated com‘?ndencc with Lords Russell and Clarendon, the Washington Minister has chicfly directed attention to the question of indemmnity ; and the proposal that that, and that alone, should be referred to arbitration came from himself, ‘The more resolutely our then Foreign Ministers repudiated such ‘a mode of settlement the . more persistently the Washington Cabinet: pressed it forward, and it is not ‘until we find Lord Stanley frankly: accepting the principle ofarbitration that Mr. Seward begins to start fresii difficulties and to exact new conditions. It would almost seem as if the American Minister had been someâ€" what disagreeably surprised at finding his own . mpodtlou so fayorably received, and that he discovered that political interests would render it desirable to put impediments in the way of the settlement he, had been so urgently enforcing wupon us. One can understand reâ€" ferring a claim for indemnity to an abitrator ; but who ever heard ol committing questions of national policy to such a tribunal ? Arbiâ€" tration is not. possible: upon such a point.as that newly started by Mr. Seward. â€" It is quite within the province of his government to asâ€" sume that our recognition was " unnecessary and premature," and that it was "an injyurious proceeding for which great Britain would imâ€" mediately come under.a fall responsibility to justify it, or to render redress or indemnity." This is either a serious menace or mere offensive baporing, but in uLm the country will uphold the government in the attitude it has assumed upon this point. _ England is answerable to Americaif the statesmen of the latier country choose to make her so ; but in the meantime she will not brook the interference of "un outsider in the quarrel which, those who are uniamiliar with the temper of Washington diplomacy would imagine that Mr. Seward seriously desires to force upor her. ! her silver coins being in the same exact deciâ€" mal proportion of her â€"gold piece, as ours of i our gold piece, and both her quarter eagle and our. halfâ€"sovereign being nearly identical in i value, our currencies fwill be so nearly alike, | that it will be the work of but a few years, to | have the coins of the three countries (Engâ€" | land, Canada and the States,) passing indisâ€" l criminately in and between them as go/d, silrer , and copper. ce R New Your, Sept. 18.â€"The Post says Loans are active at 6 to 7 per.cent. s , Stock Market opened strong, closed dull and lower. . % Governments quiet and unchanged .
