The vaticinations even of the ablest foreign journalists will not, we apprehend, affect the issue one way or the other, In this instance we cannot help thinking that the judgment is pronounced in advance of anything like a clear perception of the actual situation There may be, and there are, very good | grounds for the opinion that the Chicago nominces will be elected at the proper time. But the London Times reaches the conclu sion by a line of argument to which the Teast possible consideration ean be given Parties here are neither popularly endorsed nor popularly condemned on a bald enur tion, at periodical intervals, of certain art’ of belief, They are judged mainly by their general record; by conspicuous successes or conspicuous failures in critical times, or in a perilous crisis; by the class of men that they bring to the front of the political field; and by their capacity to interpret the dominant | thought inthe public mind at the current | hour, The financial question is one of the gravest importance to the well-being of the whole country ; but the dominant thought of the people vt, contre in it.
