He declired that he has no such power or authority, but that strikes can only be danugurated by a Division that haga grievance.

Wo refer to that part which consists of a plalf statement of the facts of the pre- Mminary organization, and which ean be sus- tntued by the evidence of 500 witnesses if necessary, In order that the delegates to tha State Convention outslde of Cook County and the public generally may bo fully and accurately Informed as to Just what occurred previous to the bult, we extract from the address and ell particular attention to the fotlowlug pigsnies; A meoting of all tho delegates uppnsed to a “third torn’ was held at tho Grand Puellle Hotel Monday encrrriines before tho Convention assembled, aud ft wus thors unanimously agrocd that Hillotk Anthony, a Washburn mat, shoutd bo ateated Temporiry Chuirman of the Convan- ton, and this fact was at aace communicated to Ar. HM, Shiger, Chairman of the County Centrat ae litce, whoec duty it waa fo call the Convention omen’, At tho hour apnninted for the Convention to assemble, Mr. Suger, who fa understood tu be in favor ot ‘Gen. Grant, appeared upon the plat form, walled tho delegutes to order, and re- quested them to tuke the senta assigned to thom, whivh {hey dld, unl perfect order was at onco seenred, Mr, Singer thon culled upon the Secretary of the ney Committee to read the call by virtue of which the Convention hitd asseinbied, und this was dane, oUt dug from tlve to ten minutes, the delegates giving full attontion and muin- tutuiny perfeet order all the while. a\s soon th the reading of the call was con- eluded a duly-clected deleyato from an uncon. tested ward “iinmediately arose In his plice, in close proximity to the platform, and addressed tho Chatr in tho ordinary way, for tho purpose of nominating Str, Anthony as Temporary Chute- munof the Convention, and, at about the samo instant, W.J. Campbell, anothor delegate, from the Town of Worth, altting Immediutely at the right of the Chatrman, arose fn his pluce and ad+ dresgad the Chir for the ame purpose. ‘fis oceurred immedintely attor tho reading of the call, and before Mr, Singer had made any ronuirks whateyer to the Convention relating to ry nporary Chairman. The Chatr refused to reeoyuize elther of them, but, waving his hart to Gem, sald hat according ta the eustoin he would appoint the Temporary Chairman of te Conven~ fun, - ‘ho Intter portion of the sentence wns ron dered tnaudlble to sone persons in tho hall by the erles of “Not” “Nol” “Nol” that arodo from delegates ti all parts of the Convention, but the words wore heurd by the dulegutoa next to tho platform, and by those seated on tho pluttorm, and by muny In other parts of the UK, vi before in the history of Cook County, eve, Was any atch thing attempted, and the xreat inajority of the delewates present pro- tested agalost stich netion, ‘The two delegates wi mt nddressed the Chale remalned standing: In their places, and several others hinmedintely nroge, and with lod volee, whieh was distinctly. heard, nominated Hitott Anthony as Tomporary Chatrinay, whlch womlnution was seconded by oO AMG time, and ie Chatrman wits requested and urged to put (eta a rote, Thtshe refused to do, tasting that he lad the right ta appoint Chatrman houself, nuining: tor tho first ting Mr, George Btrnekinanh, a delo- gate in to Convention, whe tnd provioubly’ and atory the Convention wis called to order, tald Mr. Singer that he would not take the Chatrman- abit as ‘hoe ufterwards openly stated in the Con- voution, zi Arthur Dixon and Abner Tayléy from tho Firat Ward, O. V. Purington from the ‘Third Ward, and W. J. Campbell, a delegate from tho Towil of Worth, one In turn addressed Mr, Singer and requested bin to sulintt the nume or Mr. Ane thony to i vote, dt he ulterty refuaed xo to do, Pinully, after womo ton miuttes of confusion and nolee, Mr. Shermin Sf Hooth, a regulurly= tlcoted delegate from an uncontested ward, the Thirteenth, urose In his plice, and again nomi: mited Elliott Anthony, whieh botng keconded by nuny volcos, be pit the mution himaolf, stands fog in hia phice, ang it was curried by an overs whelining majority. AIL this, and moro, occurred beture the bolt took place. Mr. Anthony took the position of ‘Vemporary Chalrman, and was recognized assuch, A Seeretary was elected upon tho nomination of Arthur Dixon, dolegute from the First Ward, and a Comimitteo on Creden- tials was appoluted upon motion of D, V. Purington, delegate frau the ‘Third Ward, ‘The Sceretury proceeded to enil the roll, and “ the eredentlals of all the wards andtowns tu the county were hanited to the Sceretary, except those of the Fifth Ward and thatown of Hyde Park, and the aqme are now In the hande of the Seoretary of the Convention.” It was after all {hla that the Grant delegates, who had crentedall the riot, confuston, and disturbance Hog was, bolted, under the lead of Dick ‘TuthMs And it was after the bolt had set in that Mr, Singer reappeared upon the platform and announced that “all the Grant delegates would meet at the Pater House.” Its upon this statement of naked facts that any contest must be based at Springfleld, for the fucts can bo substantiated beyond any question. Perbaps the most linportant elreumatance of all fy that the Blaine and Washburn men, who were in a majority of more than twe to one over the third-termers, held a caucus In the morning beforo the Convention, as Is usual, agreed upon the Hon, Ellioty Anthony as Temporary Chairman, and notified Mr Shagor, the Chatrman of the County Com- ailtice, of thelr choice. Evey if It had been tho pracilea fer the County Committee's Chalrinan to name the Temporary Chairman of the Convention (whioly it never has Leon in this county), it would have been Mr. Sluger's duty, us an honorable man, under these circumstances to ume Mr, Elliott Anthony ns the known cholce of nn over whelming inajority, Mr. Singer? was nota plegnte to the Convention, Ie had bon se- lected Chairman of the County Committe a year before, without any referenee to the Grant. and antl-Grant struggle. We had no other authority and no other right In the Convention than that of assisting the majori- ty to organize It properly, But Mr. Singer, who knew that no precedent gave hin tha right to name the Chairman, not only lusisted, upon usurping that -anthority, but did not name the Chairman whom he knew the majority had already agreod upon, and persistently refused over and over again to submittothe Convention the nawne of Elflott Anthony, who had been non {nated by several delegates, Ilad Mr, Singer been foretbly ejectad from tho platform, dn- stead of belng permitted to remain ant ene courage aboalt, his outrageous defiance of the minyority of a Convention of which te was nota member would have justifiud the pro- ereding, TE the third-term boltlers of .this county claim the attention of the State Convention on tho basis of the facts attending the organ- ization of the Cook County Convention, they witl not be entitled to a hearing after tho simplostatement of the truth shall have been mile, If thoy shall attempt to distort and falsity the truth, the latter canbe proved to the satisfaction of any Impartial body of men, EIndeed, all the: externnl evidences polnt to the fact, which.fias been virtually admitted by the bolters, that tho third-term- era had determined before the meeting of the Convention that they would bolt because they had been beaten at the prinimrtes, and that In thefr haste to carry out thetr deter- nilnation they did not walt for a grievance, nor even trip up a respeetably pretext for bolting, This single clrenmstance ought to shutthem out of the State Conventlon if there were no other reason for thelr exelue ston. CADET WHITTAKER'S MISFORTUNES. ‘The remarkable developments made by the cross-examination In tho West Point Inquiry on Saturday, unless they can be shown to be groundless. will be very damaging to the caso of Cadet Whittaker. As they stand now they convict hin of falsehood, perjury, and other conduct unbecoming an olticer, ‘Lhe experis, five fn number, have Identified the handwriting of Whittaker as the landwrit- ing in the note of warning he received, and untess that Identification ean be shown to bo Incorrect his whole cage goes by the board. It adds to tho diMiculties of his situation that, after acknowledging one-half sheet of paper upon which a letter wis partly written to his mother as his own writing, the note.of warn ing was written upon the other half, and ex- anetly fitted it in the quality of paper, the rul- Ing, and the ragged edges where Jt had been cut ortorn-upart. Previous to this discoy- ery tho other circumstances—such ng the dls- appearance of his handkerchief, the fading of his knife on the floor, the locking of the bath-room door, the correspondence of the cutting of the leaves from his Bible in length with the blades of his seissors—imight haye been regarded as triiles light ns air, but these elreumstanees and the diserepancy of some of his oral statements with those written In his letters, coupled with the tes- timony of tho exports, assume a new impor tance, and the sum total of the testimony Is execedingly damaging, Many .a man has been convicted of erimo in the Inw courts aud somo inen have been hanged upon elr- cunstantinl testimony not a whit stronger than this which now stands against Cadet Whittaker. [ow he can overcome it, espe- elully now that the Government advocate, who was very warmly Interested In the young man, has left the case, itis nob ensy to sees butitisapparent one the Jess that it will have to bottone or Cadet Whittaker must bo dismissed from tho Institution for conduct unbecoming an officer; and the most oxtraor- dinary part of it Js, that no adequate nio- tye has yet been discovered for this conduct. Tho mero fact of suclal ostraclam or trouble’ with “any of tho white cadets cow not have occasioned it, and, as it has been sliown by the testimony of hls Instructors, there was. no need of his avolding éxamination by getting Into the hospital, as thore was ne danger of his belng plucked, On the other hand, he stood Digher In Nis class thun seyeral of the white cnilots. Whatever may bo tho fate of Cadet Whit- taker (and wa hope he will beable to exoul- paterhimaall, the testimony hing shown that there are ample grounds for r. fort in the manngenient of the West Point school If Cadet Whittaker bo dlamissed, his place , should be Immediately tilled by another col- orad man, for, if colored nicn are, deemed good enongh to serve in the army and Nght and dle for their country, they are good enough to go to Weat Polnt and be educated in the dutles of a soldier, And when hits placo {s filled, thon the officers and cadets should be made to underatand that the sub- stitute siialt bo treated lke a man and with cominon decency and humanity, lt iy too much to expect perhaps that his us- sociates will ever be upon terns of familiarity or Intimate felendship with him, but they should bo made to understand at least that ho must be treated with kind- ness nnd courtesy, and recognized asa soldier of equal standing with themselves, and those who won't do lt showld themselves ba dis- myplssed and thelr plaees Mled with those who will, It Js tine the young gentlemen of West Point were Instructed In tha curricu- lum of common elvility, not only toward colored men, but men of thelr own color, and It Isquite evident from the run of the testl- mony that some of the officers thomselyes need afew lessons Inthe same course, es- pecially In thelr treatment of elyillans, ———_— THE ALBANIANS, a, ANGERS TLLYRI- ‘The ows printed afew days ago from Albania In Turkey (tho Ilyria of the Greeks aud Romans), if reHable or trustworthy, Ins dicates that the valiant mountulucera of that Historls country not only object to ylold up any of their territory to Greece on the south and Moutenegre on the north, but are rapld- ly preparing to go along step forward and shake off the Turkish yoke altogether, The graphic seone plotured In our special cable dlspatehts of a day or twa ago, where the notadjea of Soutars tore off thelr Turkish decorations and trampled them tn the dirt, and an Albanian warrlor tare down the crescent and holsted sn tts pince the natlonal banner amid the frenaled aeclamations of the crowd, may have actually occurred, or it may ben fiction as claimed by the Londan 7'hnes, but it Is none the less cortain that the entire tendency of events in Albania ts towards such uo declaration, and that, i it has not been mado already, ! will ‘be before long, Tho Albantan Lengue, formed twa years ago, consisted of the various sems-Independ- ent Pashas and Chieftains of that extensive region kuown us Albania, stretching from the confines of Greece on the Jonian Guit northward along the Adrlatis to Scutart and Montenegro and inland to the Pindua Tange, which separates it from Mace doplu, This reglon ts the Illyria of the anclent writers, and has been occu- pled from the dawn of history to the snine race, now variously known as Al- banians, ‘Tho Albanians wore once Chris- tlans, but the greater numbor apostatized at tho Hime of the Ottoman conquest, and have ever since been fanatical Moslems. A con alierable section, however, of the Northern Albanians are Roman Catholics, Like all mountain races, tho Albanians havo always sought their freedom. ‘They first scenred the name of Albania for thelr country during the days of the Greek Empire, tavelve or fourteen centuries ago, and tn tho decling of that Empire they achloved thelr fndependonce, Upon the one hand they hettl thelr ground ngainst an old- tine enemy, the Bulgarians, On the other, heated by the famous Qvorge Castrlot, known among tho Turks nsSeanderbeg, they defeated every effort of Mahomet IL to over- power them, and when the latter invaded Albania hia armles wero defeated over and over again, and he was compelled to make an acknowledgment of tts Independence by a formal trenty. When Scanderbeg dled, however, the Albantang lost their tower of strongth, and tho ‘Turks once moro renowed the struggle, and nt last, after the memorable stege of Scutari in 1478, sueceeded in reduc- ing thom ton state of nominal subjection. The country, however, was Yh an altnost constant condition of rovolt, and the dwellers upon the mountains preserved thelr tidepondence, During the Greek Insurrection of 1831 the Albanians offered to make common cause with the Greeks, but their bad treatment by tho Jatter forced them lutothe Turkish army, and from that {ima to this they have nome {nally heen subjects of the Porte, though ready at any time to dissolve the allegiance, ag was shown in the Crimean war, when many of their most illustrious warriors fought under the Russian flag against tho allies, Their present deftant attitude, there- fore, fa In perfect consonance with thelr traditions and their history, How far they can proceed or what results they ean compass will now depend untirely upon the action of the Signatory Powers to the Berlin ‘Trenty. The immediate cause of their hostile action is the proposition on the one hand to cede a large slice of their south- ern territory to Greece,—an event more than ever likely to occur sinco the advent of the Gladstone Adinintstration to power,—and on tho other to cut off a'small strip on the north ant give It to Montenegro, Both these prop- osittong are In consonance with the treaty, ‘That Instrument does not actually Zirarantee, but it recognizes, the right of Greeco to an extension of her northern’ frontior, and pledges the Powers to use their Influence with the Porte to secure stioh an extension. Contingent upon her not taking the fleld against Turkey during tho war,—n contingen- ey which she obstrved, although it would havo placed ‘her in a position where she could have had tho coveted territory by way of indemnity,—the ‘Tory Admintstration of England .promiyed to secure the area she wished, and then, having accomplished tts purpose, dellberately violated the promise, As thore !y every prospect that tho Liberals will coshpel Turkey to ylell up the territory, It will be seen that the objections of Albania to the lugs of it will not weigh much. They will probably bu equally unfortunate as to their. northern boundary, for, though the territory thoy lose’ there is very sniall, itis exprossly stipulated in the treaty that it shall bo ceded to Montenegro, and tho Pow- eys can hardly stand idly by and see the Al- baninns invade Montenegro to recover It. ‘The question of independence, howover, 1s separate from that of territorial cession, It fy doubtful whether any of the Powers would object very sorlously to her freedom from Turkish rule, and It !s quite prob- able that, In tho present: eqrippled con- dition of ‘Turkey, she, “‘inlght secure it by fores of arms, Unquestionably sho would have the moral support of the new Engilsh Administration, whiéh {3 In favor of the establishment of freo principalities In the Balkan Peninsula, with the view to their ultimate federation ay a strong Slavic bul- warkagainst Russian progress on the one ‘hand and ‘Turkish misrule onthe other. THE ENGLISH L'BERALS, Tho Liberal party now controls the British Government, It has organized its Cabinet, gnade Its most prominent and important ap- polntments to oflice, and may fairly bo sald to have entered upon its carcer, It 1s too soon its yet for the nuw Cabinet to have given any oMfeial indication as to the policy by which it will be controlled. The different Governments of Europe are still in doubt as to the mensures {t will adopt relative to the affairs of ather countries, It ia predicted by some thatitacourse In foreign matters will be soentirely different from that of its prodeces- sor as practically toamounttoan antagonism, and that ita firat efforts will be to annul and do away with. all actlun taken by the Con- servative Ministry during Ste-oxletence, As anntural consequence af this bellef, much doubt, and some trepidation oven, on the part of the varluus Powers intorested still exists. Under Lord Beaconsfivld’s rule attempts had been made, and In most cases successfully, to Inject British infinence Into all European afntrs of an international character. If the statement should prove true that the Liberal Government desires to pursue a polley so antagonistic to that of the Conservatives, it would follow, of course, that every public. measure adopted: by Europe during the Inst ax years:would have to be more or Itss unsettled and reconaldered, and that, lu the present feverish and unsettled condition of uffairs, complications of the gravest clinracter might arise, ‘Thostatomonts of tho Liberal leadors during the canvass,-and espechilly thosy lately mada by Mr, Gladstone to a correspondent of the Neue Frete Presse of Vionna, lead ua to bolleve that all ‘such fears ure sensational and absurd, While the Liberals uncoubt- edly disapproved the polley of adventure pursed by Lord Boaconstlald, tt can bo atatud with cortalnty that they will not far n moment attempt to undo such portions of his work us use now accomplished facts, ‘They will avvept the situation, confused and unsatlsfuctory ag itis, and In those affulrs not yetemmpleted attempt by tale dealing and practicn! common aunse, rather than by visionary straining after British glory, ta are rive atanoh solition ax the rual iuteresta and juatrightsof all conearued may demand, They clearly advocate the doctrine of nan. Interference in other puoplo's affairs, unless the teuvlutereata of Groat Britain Impera- Uvely demand it, or, In accordance with ber tine-honored policy, her alddinny be deemed necessary to diferent ruces who aro striving for Independence, Mr, Gladatona’s ex. pression “Handy off used by him In tho statement to which we rofer, and rela- tlvato the posseasion by Austrin of Bosnia and Herzegovinn and to Austrinn agplra- tlons fn tho Ballon Peninsula, fully explains, we have no doubt, the Mne of conduct the Liberal party will puraug regarding pvery forelgn queation in which Britlels tutorests aronot involved, or which docs not by Its Injustlee and oppression appeal to British sympathy und gense of justice, No details of the Liboral forelgn policy can as yet be glven. The Liberals have fall- enhefrtoLord Beaconsfield's wild schanies, tn whi¢h inischtevous activity abroad to the utter neglect of home atfalrs was the leading foature, and which, wherever practleadle, were laraply Influenced by the Machiavellian diplomacy of Bismnarck and Heymerle. It may bé predicted that, under the leadership the presoué moment by substanttally } of Atr, Gladstono, the altars of Great Britain. will be differently conducted, and that hor foreign policy will be davoted, a3 faras pos Bible, to withdrawing from the false and compromising position lito whieh the coun- try has beer led by the — vanitles of Lord Beaconsileltt, Tha attompt Is beset with many diMeulties, and will require sovernl years for tts successful tormination, We doubt If the worst onvmy of the Inte Vremter could have wished him a more ar- duous and perploxing task than that ho should bo required to wind up satisfactorily the varlots foreign complientions Into whieh, by his responsibility alone, tho British Enipire has become involved, In domestle affalrs the Libornis have a glguntic labor before them. ‘Tho new Min- istry follows tho worst administration that las governed England for many years. It haa the attvaniage, however, of being com- posed of men who understand thelr duties and arecapable of performing them, rather than, as in the enso of tts predecessor, of more dependents upon tho willot one indl- vidual, ‘Tho Liberal party has obtained ‘power not only because of the dissatisfaction felt for the foreign policy -of the Consorva- tives, but for the reason that an absolute no- cessity for domestic legisintion nnd for the attoption of reforms was self-avident, In their garnest desire for those reforms the Brittsh public may now be considered essen- tinlly radical—not as the Communists of France or tho Socialists of Germany in their fanatical hatred for all existing Institutions, butte theend that change may be adopted whenever change ls necessary aud benellesal ‘The new Parilament will not bo able to ae- complish a grént deal of business during its firstavasion, ‘The tine it enn sit during the Present year Isv short that the Liberal Cale {nut will bo unable to prepare the more im- portant subjects for Varliamentary action. No measure of serious necessity has been transferred from the old to the new Govern- mont in such conditton that legistation on it can at once be commenced. So great has been the neglect of the Conservatl ves in this regard that the new Cabinet will be forced to begin de novo, and thelr preparation of do- mestic subjects to be submitted to Parlia- ment will necessarily take thie, ‘There ere, however, some few matters which aro of im- perativa value at the present time, and which cannot be postponed, Among them are the existing deficits in the finances, the Ballot act, which expires tho prosent yenr, and the Census bill. ‘These can no longer be put off, and it ls probable that the present session will be principally occupied in thelr considera- tlon. 2 ‘The noxt seasion will be far more prolific, By thot thne the new Cabinet will have had time to prepare {ts program, and to maturo and putin shapo the leading and Important monsures It desires adopted. We may then expect to seo’ delfinit, aud beneficial Iegisia- tion regarding Irish interests, the Land liws, fora better system of county government, simuntelpal government for the City of Lon- don, the revision of the Burin! Inws, the equalization of the franchise between Ire- land and Englund, the county franchise, the redistribution ‘of Parliamentary seats, and the passing of bills regarding bankruptcy, patents, coroners, copyrights, ete, ete. In fact, itis plain that the Liberal party have been restored to power by the English peo- ple for the evident reason that a full and ex- haustive examination, and modification when expedient, of their entire governmental ma- chinery !3 deemed necessnry. Such changes in thelr Institutions aro desired as will hare monizo them with the spirit and require- monts of the present time, Thoy haye glyen unnilstakablo evidence that In this direction they are prepared to follow the Liberal lead- ers with entire confidence, We do not doubt that thefr wishes will be fully gratified, and that the present Government will be able to accomplish more for the benefit of the En- glish peofle than any which has preceded it. Ir has not beon bolfeved by tho Committee representing the regular Cook County dele- gation that the question of voting by Sena- torind districts can cut any figure inthe threatened contest, becnusea the county dele- gation must of necessity be divided up into Congressional districts, with whieh the Senatorial districts do not correspond, when the delegates to tho “National Conyuntton ara appointed, But, In case tho effort shall bo made to Iugin this mattor for the purpose of complication, the Couk County delegation should bo prepared with a supplemental ad- dress which shall show that thelr position in this regard Is a3 strong and as regular as ft is Inthe matter of prolingnary organization. The facts, in brief, arethese: (1) The regular Cook County Convention af Farwell Hall wag composed of delegates claotod at the prima- ties acaording to the call of the County Central Committee; this is equally true of the rant minority that bolted and of the antl- Grant majority which proceeded with the work of the regular Convention,: (2) The regular Farwell Hall delegation to the State Convention wns selected by Senatorial dis+ tricts, which organized sapurately by elect- ing district oMecers, and was reported to the Convention, which confirmed tha solections as nw whole. (8) After tho delegates to tho Staté Convention hud beon selected by Sena- torial districts and approved by the County Convention aaa whole, the Conyention cov- ered avery possible contingency by passing n resolution which Instructed the Cook County delegates to Springfield to divide up into Congressional districts for the selection of dolugates to the Natlona!l Convention ‘(not with reference to the nomination’ of State ofilcers), ant! apportion tho vulus of Cook County in the ratle of 58 for Washburno and 3% for Blaine, ‘Thus all the duties of the Cook County delogates tb: the State Couven- tion wore specifically dofined.
