Yontordny waa the day.upon which tho Rail- rond aud Warchiouso Commissioners of this Btate were to. determine what railroads thoy would proceed sgainst for violation of the law. Tho Board met, but the decision will not be an- nounced until to-day, The easo of Twoead, which was ealled for trial sesterday in the Courtof Oyor and Torminer, under the Ring indictinonts, was brought to suddon stand-still by an objection filed by the dofendant against the Judge of the Court sittiug in tho cago. Tho matter is now held under con- suliation, —— A morning newspaper which devoted three wecks of earneat effort to prove that the Citi~ zens' Union tieket wos o Trinexe ticket, and ono week to proving that it was not, has now got back to its first unasspilablo position, and is propared to show that ‘it was, in question bad better resumae its profitable and entortaining discussion of tho DBankrupt law, and leave tho question, whother it was a Taoin- ‘oxe ticket or not, to bo sottled by future ages. e The Supromo Court of tho Stato has just pro- nounced n decision which decides tho action of the town authorities of Lake View, with refor- euco to the Rosehill Cemetery Company, illegal; ‘Tho town, by the passage of an ordinance to that eficct, has horetofore limited the Company in the use of their own property to o tract of wbout 500 acres, in which they wero allowed to meke intermeonts, the design of tho ordinance “eing presumably to protect certain fancy prop- erty on the oulskirts of the ccmotory, The ordinanco being decided illegal, the Company is &t liborty hencoforth to utitizo their entire tract Tor burial purposes, % i The great baitle in tho Canadian Parliament, betsween honesty on the one hond and corruption. on the othor, has resulted in & trinmph for the formor, owing to the determined manner in | which the Opposition hns struggled under _tho compotont and cnergatic leaderahip of Alexan- der Mackonzio, Anticipating their dofeat at the fnal voto, the Ministry has resigned; and the Governor-Goneral has ealled upon Mr, - Macken- zio to form o now Cabinet. Tho Macdonald Government hes been in power ginca tho establishmont of {ho Dominion in 1869, The ro- tiring Prewmier was first,electod to Parliament in 1844 Tho firat Cabinet in which ho #as s mem- ber resigned in 1850, and the Roformers leld the roius of power until 1854. In. that yoar ha Joined the Governmont ns Attorney-General, which post hie held until 1862, In that yoar, bo- ing defeated on tho Militia Dill, he and his col- leogues rosigned, and romeined in opposition auntil 1864, when he again accaded to officoas Attorney-General in the Fache Cabinet. Ontho death of S E, P, Tacho, in 1805, ho became Min- ister of Militia, whish offica he held until 1868, when lo wss appointed Ministor of Juetico and Attorney-General, and in 1860 bo- came Premior of tho Domivion Csbinet. Tho glaring scandal of the Canadian Proifie job, the olection briberics, and the attempts, pending tho present debate, to bribe members of the Opposition to support the Govornment, have beon too much foy it, and it has given away toa amore honost Cabinat, %y . —— o Later roturny from tho clections on Tucsday only servo to emphasize the Republican yout. Jo New York, the Demooratic ‘mujority on- the tato ticket is probably about 10,000, but tho Republicans have tho Leglsiature by asmall anjority. In Massachuselt, Washlurn, Ro- publican, is olected by ahout 13,000, ma- Josity.. ‘Tho .

The Republican party is moro complotoly Dlightéd by the Ootober and November elections than the Opposition was by thoso of last year, and for two roasous: (1) That the Republican partyls essontinlly o party of the past, huving 1o bond of union but the epoils of ofiice, and (2) that it has now to contond'with a financial crigis, against which the party in powor has never yet, in the history of thé country, been able to siand up. Thoso who fancy that tho “oft-year in politics" accounts for tho actmal defeat suffered by the parly in Obio, Wisconsin, California, and New York, andits practical defont in Jows, Illinols, Kansng, and Massnchusotts, are completely blind to the significancoof things going on around them. Tho off-yoar in politics los'latterly beon moro disadvantageous to the ‘Dormocracy than to tho Republicans. Thero ia 10 reagon why o party holding all the Federal of- fices and throe-fourths of the local offices, hav- ing & paid train-band in every" achool district and at least one paid organ in ‘every county, should suffer proportionately honvier' losses in the oft-year than o party leving no .such ox- trancous and adventitious sid. Thé real truth of the matter was set forth in tho dispatch which wo publishoed yosterday from Massachusotts, viz. : .

In the States of California, Jows, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kansas, and Minnesota, tho Democratic party has oither formally disbanded, or informally merged {tselt into tlio Opposition, by whatever namo it has boon called. In California, the name *Indo- pondent” was sdopted.

There is ono polnt on Which both tlio viotors and tho vanguished now agreotr It was tho jmpross loft by the Commit-, teo of Soventy upon tho public mind which ne- counts for the rosult that has nstonishod both partios, It was thelr formal snd ropostod de- mand that all ths poople who live in Ohioago should conform to thoir idens of Bunday obsory- anco that lod to the resentmont so emphatically “oxprossed at tho polls on Tucsday. In thoe light of 010,000 majority for Mr. Colvin, it would bo both foolish a5 unjust to matntain that ho Las beon electod by the vicious anddangerous classes alono, It would bo.an admission that these clnggca aro in a Iarge majority In Chicago, which is sufliciontly disproved by tho quiet and orderly conditlon of the city, particularly noticoable on election-dny. The vots of 80,000 citizens for tho Poople's tickot was o protost sgainst tho mia- guidod offort to impose & cortain rogimo for the firat day of the woeole without regard to diverse traditions, customs, or porsousl habils, Tho voto of Inst Tuesday must havo convinced all intolligent poople that such & rogimo is utterly Impracticable, and that tho attempt to onforce it inlarge communitios is both undosirablo snd im- practicables - ! Bihind this unsuccossful offort to bresk up the social customs of a large community was a suspicion 'that-tho Committco of Seventy, and the peoplo thoy reprosonted, looked forwand in the futuro to a supprossion of tho uso of stim-, ulants allogeiber. Their opponcnta . belioved that thoy discorned ‘the doctrine of prohibition 28 their ultimato design, and corteinly rocog- nized an indiscriminato and uncompromising warfaro against nll spirituous, vinous, atd malt liquors alike, o' far ns they went. Tho Com- mitteo of Soventy rofused to ndmit that thore wag. any - distinction botwoon wino and boer on ono eide, and brandy and whisky on tho otlier, uuuriy rogardicss of tho organic differ- onces in’ theircompoaition. All alcohol is poison, thoy suy, and 63§ por oont of it is just ns bad in principle as 57 por cent. This is not true in chonustry any mora than it is in politics or gov- einmont, Wo have referred boforo to thoe report of the State Board of Health in Massachusettson tho use of intoxicating drinks. This roportisaval- unble nonlytical document, whether stimulants aro rogarded froma sanitary, moral,or social point of view. Itis thoro hold broadly that tho love of stimulanta is ono of the strongest of tho hu- man instincts, and cannot bo annibilated, but only reguluted by law when it eticronolios upor tho rights of othora. The ground is taken that tho couse of temperance can be best promoted by encouraging tho uso of beer and light wines. The thoory is entirely ronsonable that, if theso bovoragos can be made to displaco the stronger alcoholic drinks, to that extent will tho vices consequont upon intemperance bo di- minished, Thoro i physical and moral truth in this, suscoptible of demonstration by scicnco, experience, sud daily comparisons, Tho Com- mittoo of Beventy rofused to recognize this, and insisted upon their crusado againat all or noth- ing. In spito of all concessions and compro- misos, the spirit of forcible Sabbatarianism and coorcive tomporance was recognizod by the mul- titude as tho iesue, and this spirit wns voted down with such emphasia as to leave not the ro- motest doubt of tho sentiment of the pooplo. TuE TRIBUNE was contciqus of all this hofora the election, and it cndeavored to modify the issue to accord with common seuse, solontifio demonstration, and the oxperionco of other communitics. . Iis counsols did not provail, and it was constrained ot last to support tho ticket which, in its judgment, best ropresented the ‘taxpayors. ‘of . tho communily. Tho result will not havo been without avail it it shull tonch cortnin ‘oxtremists and impracti- cablos never again to forco tlicse iaaun‘a‘ upon the peoplo, f L As for Mr.:.Colvin and the gentlemen who hiaye baen elocted with him, it is their duty to regard thoir eloction in the light by which wo bavo dofined it,~n8 ‘n popular protest sgainst intolerauce, -and not as the indorsement of license.
