| ure THE DENOUNCED TREATIES, senda Foreign Opinions. | The New York Tribune comments on the action of Great Britain in denouncing | the Belgian—German treaties as foilows:— ; ** Phat means that henceforth the British | Empire is to be a commercial unit, dis- tinct from the rest of the world. Great Britain may make whaiever bargains she pleases with her colonies, without letting anyone else in under the “most favored nation” clause. For commercial purposes the colonies are no longer separate states. They are members of the One great State, Nauon, Empire. Great Britain may still } Maintain the part of “Athanasius contra mundum,” but it is an Athanasius be- stridiug the whole world. Commerce with other nations is io be sought, bus commerce with the Empire is to be pre- ferred; and whenever the interests of the two clas, the former, not the latter, is to be sacrificed. For the sake of increasing trade within the Empire, the risk of a tariff war with all cutside is uanhesitatingly in- curred. Truly, the Mother Country might well adapt the mottoof Australia and inscribe upon her banners, “Advance, Britannia.”

The Moniteur, of Brussels, Belgium, officially announces the fact that Great Britain has denounced the commercial! treaty with Belgium, but adds that the British Government has intimated ite readiness to negotiate a new treaty.

The Krenz Z-itung, of Berlin, eays that the desunciation of tue commercial treaty with the German zollverein is Great Brit- ain’s fist siep towards the protectionist system, and adds: ‘But there is no ground for serious alarm, because she has ker carrying trades to protect and retaliation tofear. Moreover, a one-sided preference Shown Canada might provoke a conflict with the United States.”

The National Zeitung of Germany says that Great Britainis herself the nation most interested in the conclusion of a new

treaty, and that Germauy may gain much

, by skilful, coldsbloo'e | diplomacy.

The Vosei-che Zci.urg says: “So far as Germany’s relations to Kngland are con- cerned it is a matter of indifference whether we have a treaty or not,”

The Berliner Tageblait says: “Great Britain’s intention to join the Mother Country and the colonies in a customs union will not induce her to restrict British trade with Germany any further than is necessary to attain this object.”

The Tageblatt, the Vossische Zeitung and the National Zeitung all agree that 11 is quite out of the question for England to adopt protection,

" MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

The bandolon of Mexico fs not greatly dissimilar in shape to the moon guitar of China.

The psaltery referred toin the Jewish sacred writings is a kind of dulcimer played either with the fingers or plectrum.

The native guitar of Mexico differs ma- terially in shape from the same instrument used in this country, the body being an ellipse.

The Indian tamboura has the body of light reddish yellow wood and wire strings, three being of steel and one of brass. It is used to accompany the voice in singing.

The Indian vina is a bar of hollow bam- boo, to which are fastened two empty gourds. It is strung with eight wires, five of which are provided with movable frets.

The Indian pukhway, or drum, is made of alog of wood hollowed. It is usually about 20 inches long, 8 or 10 inches in diameter and is beaten at either or both ends.

The dulcimer in almost exactly the form in which it is known today has been in use in Persia and Arabia from time immemo- rial. It was probably introduced into Europe during the crusades.

The sono-koto is the representative in- strument of Japan. It resembles nothing imore closely than a board with bridges at the ends, to which the strings are fastened. There are 13 silken strings passing over movable bridges at intervals along the length of the instrument.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

BATTLE ARRAY.

Machine guns have been supplied to the queen’s life guards, and gradually all the Beitish cavalry regiments will be armed with them.

Siam’s army is to be reorganized by Russian army officers, over 100 officers having volunteered as instructors in an- swer to a circular from the war depart- ment. The king of Siam will select 50 from among them,

A sepoy regiment will outwalk any Eu- ropean regiment, and do it on food which their competitors would pronounce wholly insufficient to sustain vigorous life. They invariably take off their boots and socks and sling them across their shoulders while on the march.
