When the coalition of 1867 was formed, we conâ€" tended that, theoldpmy;lhnolfiv-g haying lost their significance, the new Administration should be judged by the result of their policy, and by nothing else. So, now we claim, that the alliance formed between the WesternGrits and an Eastern Conservative and supporter of the Doâ€" minion Government, for the purpose of administering local aftairs,ought to have a fair trial, and that their policy ought not to be condemned beforehand for no other reaâ€" son than because, as Mr. Mackenze puts it, "we cannot expect pure water from a foul spring."" Had we believed, as the Globe at one tims professed to do, that "it was essential to the security of the people‘s rights that there should be party Covernment," we should probably have argued differently,. We might at once have been disposed to condemn the preâ€" sent Untario Government without affordâ€" ing them an opportunity of showing what was the nature of their policy. g But to do so would be altogether cntrary to those principles for which the supporters of the: Dominion Government have always conâ€" tended. In order to be consistent, we must give the same amount of fair play to one "political alliance‘" which we demandâ€" ‘ ed for a former one. \ «©There is not a Department at Ottawa 'Mhmtmw,mm of a lack of ability, but because of unnatuâ€" ral political alliances.

Mackenzie at London, Oct. 2Ath 1870. _ Nowever well the views of the members ‘[oltho new (ntario administration may agree as to local questions, there can be no doubt as to the marked want of similâ€" ’u-ity in their opinions in reference to Dominion politics. Mr. Scott declares that be is as staucch a supporter of Sir John Macdonald as he ever was. Mr. Blake is known to be a bitter opponent of the Doâ€" minion Government. Mr. Blake and Mr. Scott think very differently with regard to the murder of Thomas Scott and the proper line of policy to be pursued in Manitoba ; and so we might mention a number of questions connected with the politics of the Dominion, in which the «‘resident of the Council and the Commisâ€" sioner of Crown Lands in Ontario are enâ€" tirely at variance. If we were to accept the dictun of Mr. Mackenzsie, we might at once assume that from such an discreditable szene occurred in the Lou. isiana Legislature on Weédnesday. A vote was passed to unseat the Speaker, who is a supporter of lresident CGrant, and deâ€" claring an Antiâ€"Grant man elected in hig room. Suddenly, however, an armed mob burst into the room, and dispersed the Assem‘ly. During the night General Amory was cailed upon for troops by the Crant fuctionists, and at daylight two comâ€" pauies ol United States Colored Infantry, with Gatlin guns, arrived at the Custom House. During the morning the Mechanics‘ Institute, in which the,General Assembly meets, was stroungly guarded by metropoliâ€" tan police, wh»are said to be opposed to Grant. Speaker Carter, who was in conâ€" sultation at the Custom House all the morning, arrived at the Mechanics‘ Instiâ€" tute at 11.30 a.m. Soon after a Deputy United States Marshal drove up, and proâ€" ceeded to arrest Governor Warmouth, General Campbell, of the State Militia; Colonel Badger, Captains Flanigan and Edgeworth, of the police, and a large number of the members of the House «nown to be opposed to Grant, on a warâ€" rant charging them: with conspiracy and violation of the Civil Rights Bill All business is at a standstill, and a serious riot appears imminent. «"The Spanish army unquestionably conâ€" tams some very goo{ elements ; but, on the whole, I am satiâ€"fied that it is inferior to any European army, not excepting that otf Turkey, The infantry is steady under mob burst into t the Assem‘‘y.

David Dudiey, Field, Sherraan, Counsel for the Erie Road, and other g'rominont persons were also Jrel- ent. ‘The jury was then empannelled and then fluod into Fisk‘s room, where Coroâ€" ner Young read to them the following antiâ€"moriem statement of Colonel James Fisk, jr., who being sworn, said:â€"«This afternoon about 4.30 o‘clock I rode up to the Grand Central Hotel , I entered by the private entrance ; when l entered the first door 1 met a boy of whom 1 asked if 5:.Nauwu within ; he told me that Mre, Norse andithe younger daughter had gonejout, but he thought the otgaflhugh- ter was in her grandmother‘s room. I asked him to go nf and tell the daughter that L was there. 1 came through the outer door, and was going uf stairs, and had gone up two steps when I looked up and saw Edâ€" ward 5. Stokes at the head of the stairs As soon as 1 saw him I noticed that he had something in his hand, and in a second afterwards 1 saw a flash and heard the report of a pistol, and felt the ball enter my abdomen on the right side. A second shot was fired a moment afterwards, which entered my left arm. When 1 received the finubothhmodmd ran towards the door, but noticing a crowd gathered in front, I ran back on the stairs. I was then brought upâ€"stairs in the hotel. I saw nothing more of Stokes until he was brought before me by an officer for identiâ€" stairs !"" ‘Then the alarm was given, and the police notified. Stokes did not atâ€" iempt to leave the hotel, and was taken in charge by the police. Excitement at once became intense. ‘Thousands jammed the hotel in an instant. An officer took Stokes u‘p-luiu to the room in which Fisk lay on a lounge, and the two enemies, even w the death, were fice to face, Police Captain Byron said : ©Colonel . Fisk, you see this man, was it he who shot you?" And KFisk, mmz himself on his elbow, said ; " Yes, that is the man who shot me; his name is Edward 8. Stokes, and I fully idonmn him ‘as the man.‘" Stokes, during this scene, had nervously twitched his trousers leg with the cane which he carried in his hand. At the conclusion of the identification, Capâ€" tain Byron clapped Stokes on the shoulder and said, ",You will come with me now"‘ Stokes turned and said nothing, but went with the captain to the 5th Precint Staâ€" When be had W terrible aot, Stokes leisurely ed the main stairs of the hotel and went into the barâ€" room.~ He had thrown his revolver on a sofa in the ladies‘ parlor as he passed by. ‘He: sauntered to the news stand, and bending over the counter, said to Mr. Davidson, "Gentiemen in charge, I have bear i _ rlted. There is a man shot above stairs, You had better send for a doctor." ‘He was.very pale, but did .not show‘.any agitation or fear. Me then left the neas to bnke n drink, but apperently changed to take a drink, but ntly his mind, for ‘no u:?own in a chair. Davidson imagined Stokes was joking, and did not pay any attention to his remarks ; but in a moment Redmond, the door boy, came nuhm& down stairs, and running over to the 0 said ; " Oh, Mr. Powers, Colonel Fisk hno.‘nan shot by a man upâ€" a‘ A CHICAGO RHYMSTER.
