It Depends on Circumstances.

(Toronto News.)

What a set of unprogressive, hide-bound hypocrites the Grit organists are! They cau always find an excuse for doing some- thing bad or omitting to do something good by a species of adroit argumentative thimble-rigging between the leaders, the organs, and the party.

For instance.

The independence question comes up,and Mr. Blake is requested, as a leader, to say what he thinks about it Straightway the organs cry out, ‘‘Oh, that would be very improper. It isn’t Mr. Blake’s business to lay down any policy for the party. Mr. Blake owes it to his followers to keep his mouth shut.” ¥

So the Independence discussion within the party is choked off.

Then the question of forcing J. D. Edgar upon a reluctant constitutency arises, and the same organs, to quiet matcers down,say, ‘Oh, Mr. Blake wishes this thing done. He is leader of the Reform party, his wishes in sach a matter should be law, and any man who says otherwise is a Tory and a traitor.”

From which we infer that when it suits Mr. Blake to have his say, he will have it, and when it doesn't, he will be restrained by a sense of the delicacy of his position.

thirty-eight. The first of them was formed in 1862 by a mutual relief society in the Faubourg St. Denis. Two more were open- ed in 1865 and 1867, respectively. At pre- sent there are twenty-six of them and the municipal council has voted the money for creating twelve more. The total number of volumes 100,247, the average annual increase so far being good. Of the books, some are allowed to be taken home; others are read only on the premises. Neariy 60,000 volumes were lent last year; as each volume is read by about five pereons, it is calculat- ed that (with those who read in the read- ing-rooms) there were from 500,000 to 600, - 000 readers. Of the volumes about three- fiiths were novels but the demand fur‘works of that class has not been so great in pros portion as for music and musical literature. ‘The latter shows an increase of 68 per cent. For books in foreign languages the increase last year was 61 per cent.; for nistorical works, 43 per cent.; while for novels the demaud showed an increase of only 38 per cent. An enlargement in the supply of books of travel and science has been recommend- ed. Besides the municipal libraries of Paris, there are fourteen others, which are popular in the strict sense of the term, having been founded b ivate enterpries

The transactions in wool in the Boston market for the past week foot up to 3,142,- 900 pounds of all kinds, and the prices are stated to be very steady at current rates.

In a letter to the Times, Mr. W. Eath- orne Gill maintains that the West India planters exaggerate the straits to which they had been reduced by the bounty-aided beet-sugar competition. He points out that the gainers in the latter case have used scientific appliances to draw as much profit as possible out of the beet, whereas the West India planter has neglected to improve his methods. Mr. Gill thinks that if he did so, he would be an equal match for his rivals, with the bounty or without it, and might increase his receipts by one- half more than they are at present.

The Republique Francaise seems deter- mined to fan the fading fire of animosity toward England. Not content with fore- telling the speedy break-up of the British Empire, it declares the present generation of Englishmen to be the most stupid that the “Mother of Nations” has yet produced, In ten years, it adds, they will acknow- ledge it themselves. The Republique dwells cheerfully on the dangerous position of the British merchant navy. Ten swift cruis- ers, it says would destroy it and cut off the supplies of foreign coin. The moral is that England should make herself safe against continental attacks by an alliance with France and the construction of the Channel fleet.

To Mr. Labouchere, writing in the Fort- nightly Review, the one great pressing ques- tion of the hour is once and for all to get rid of the hereditary chamber, which he regards as the reductic ad absurdam of statecraft. Whether the decadence of the Commons, which to Prof. Goldwin Smith writing in the Contemporary Review seems ineVitable unless something is done, troubles Mr. Labouchere cr not, does not appear, his mind being wholly occupied with the duty of hewing down the barren cumberer of the ground at whose roots the axe already lies. ‘If a field pro- duces only noxious weeds,” says he, ‘the first step is to uproot the weeds by plough- ing them up and burning them; tbe next to plant good seed. Heo scouts the idea of any reformation of such a body, the majority of whose members are mere ‘‘catspaws” of whatever nobleman leads the Conservative party. The Franchise Bill in his opinion vught to be regarded as but an episode in the struggle between the Peers and the people. With regard to that bill he would not leave its triumph to chance, but would provide for it by the simple expedient of creating fifty or sixty new Peers, it being a matter of ‘absolute indifference” to the country whether there are fifty peers or five hun- dred. The Upper Chamber is not only contemptible but baneful, and he calls upon every Kadical to meet the attempt of Lord Salisbury to give it real power, by reiter- ating the resolution passed by the loag Par-

iament, ** The House of Lords is useless Gerethes, ax aie wo Us os
