THE CASE IN A NUTSHELL

(New York Post.)

Prof. J. W. Burgesa, of the chair of political science in Columbia College, said today: “The Monroe Doctrine, as under- stood by those who originated it, had re- ference to a certain political situation, and was intended to meet that situation. Brief ly that situation was as follows: After the everthrow of Napoleon and his European Imperial idea, and the restoration of the princes of continental Europe to herit thrones, certain of these princes. chief among them the czar of Russia, the em- peror of Austria, the king of Prussia, en-

We are in receipt of Smith’s Planet ry Almanac and find it an interesting and valuable publication. lt poiats out, among many other things, that persons who hap- pened to be born on the 29th of February, of this (1896) will not have another birth: lay until February 29th, 1904,—-a period of seven years, and explains that “the year is nearly 365} days in length. It is that day over (or 6 hours) at the end of each vear that gives us our “leap year” with an extraday in February every fourth year. It is because the year 18 nearly 365} days, and not quite, that certain days have to be omitted occasionally in order that we may not get beyond the eartb’s actnal motion around the sun in our timekeeping. Consequently 1800 aad 1900 are not “leap years.” The Century years have been grouped into fours, only one in every four is “leap year.” The year 2000 will be the next Century “leap year.” From the weather forecast it appears that we shall

have a blusterv winter and a cold, wet spring. Ifatall reliable, this almanac

may be of great value toour farmera, It is published in Montreal by James H Oxley, and its price, post paid, is only 12 cents.

A VALUABLE ENDORSEMENT.

H.B. Short of Digby, the weli known Steamship and Express a ent, teetifies to the merits of the Hawker standard rem edies - Restored to perfect health.

Whoever has visited the town of Digby, N.S., im recent years has met or heard ot U. B. Short, the popular agent of the Bary of Fundy 8.8. Co., and the Dominion Ex- press Co, The position he occupies brings him into contact with all travellers, and makes him in a sense a public man.

Mr. Short has added his testimony to that of a host of other well known people ‘regarding the great merite of the Hawker standard remedies.

Last winter “ he writes, I had a verv severe attack of grippe. It left me very much rundown and suffering from an irritating and severe congh. I took a botile of ,—Hawker’s balsam of tolu and wild cherry, and a short course of Haw- ker’s liver pills. The cough soon left me, and the heavy, tired feeling, also gradually disappeared . Afterwarde I took two bottlesof Hawker’s nerve and stomach tonic, which as a health renewer and in- vigorator I can heartily recommend to any one requiring such a remedy.” ;

It is needless to say that there are thon- sands in need of this great remedy, and other thonsands to whom Hawker’s bal- sam would prove a priceless boon. These remedies are sold by all druggists and dealers, the pills at 23 cents per box, the balsam iu £5 and 50 cent bottles, and the tonic at 5 cents per bottle, or six bettles for $250. They are manufactured only by the Hawker Medicine Co., (Ltd.) St. Jobn N. B., and New York City.

WEDDING AT CRAPAUD.

At Crepaud this evening. January Ist, 1896, Mr. George Myers, of Hampton, was united in the bonds of matrimony to Miss Grace Lowther, youngest daughter of George Lowther, Esq., of Crapaud. Little Susan Lowther, daughter of Cor- netius Lowther, acted as maid of honor, and Rey. S. J. Andrews (Episcopal) tied the nuptial knot. A goodly 1 wu ober of in - vited guesis were present to witness the ceremony. After partak'ng of the guod things provided for the occasion, the happy couple drove to their future home at Presents were numercus and

by any power asa new discovery. But this was not then considered as any part of the Monroe doctrine, nor for many

years afterwards, although generally con- ceded. The connection between this part of this message and the original Monroe docrine was made by Polk chiefly, and the purpose of it was tosecure Cuba, Texas and Yucatan for slave states in the United States by representing to the peonle of the United States,

THE @XITED STATES WOLLD NOT SEIZE THESE CCUNTRIES,

they would become subject to a Europeas power, which it is now said, would be a violation of the Monroe doctrire. This is, however, the Polk doctrine, and the bue caneering policy which it “purposed -was denounced and repudiated throughout the country. The doctrine now put forward by Cleveland and O/ney is that when there ix a dispute ip regard to boundary betweea two South American countries, the one of which is a dependence of any power whase political centre is a European sovereignty, no matter whether that sovereignty is con- tinental or insular, absolutely monarchie or constitutionally democratic, whether it does or ever did bel. nz tothe Holy Alliance system, or whether there exists any Holy Alliance ty-tem or anything like it, then the United States have the right to inter- vene and require the settlement of the qnestion by arbitration, and if the mother land of the dependent South American country refuses the demand. have the fur- ther right to determine this boundary in- depesdently of the two countries inmmed- iately concerned and of all other powers, and enfurce by war, if necessary, that de term.nation upon the party whose political centre isa European sovereignty. This is not the Monroe doctrine.

THIS 13 A BRAND NEW DOCTRINE,

It is nothing short of the doctrine of a protectorate of the United States over those South American countries which are not dependencies of a European mother - land. I say it isnothing short of that, and it looks to me as if it goes perhaps beyond that and approaches Mr. Olney’s Napoleonic idea that ‘the United States is practically sovereign on this continent, and its fiat ie law upon the subjects to which it confines its interposition.” Now if we are going to set up a new doctrine of this sort,@ very extraordinary doctrine; one involving the interests of the who'e civilized world, I insist that we should proclaim it first in the abstract, and re- peat it in the abstract, until the whole world shall have fair and sufficient notice of it; that we should except from its oper- ation all vested interests and pending cases, and that we should prepare our- selves with the standing military and naval furces and the coast and boundary defences necessary to carry it into oper~ ation. Perhaps some people don’t know what these preparations absolutely nec- essary to the realization of such a policy mean, I will tetl them in a yhrase.

demand upon England does rot rest upon this new doctrine of a protectorate, then it can rest only upon a very old doctrine, much older than the Monroe doctrine, namely, the doctrine that when one state undertakes to so increase its own power as to make itself a menace to the existence and the peace of another «tate, the latter state may } revent the same if it can.

DR. JAMIESON A PRISONER OF THE BOERS.

A Number of His Followers Killed and Wounded.

Lonpoy, Jan. 3. A despatch has reached the Colonial Office stating that Dr. Jameson has had a battle with the Boers tefore Johaunes- burg, resulting in his surrender and a number of his followers killed and wound- { ed.

Lenpewn, Jan. 3. The following despatch was received late last evening from Sir Hercules Robin- son, Governor of Cape Colony :

“Cark Town, Jan. 2,5 p.m.

“A meseenger overtook Dr. Jameson ten miles the other side of Islan’s River. The .messenger brought back a verbal message that the despatches were received by Dr. Jameson and would be attended to. The force was saddling up and at once proceeded eastward. Dr. Jameson has re- ceived and disregarded both messages.”

Sir Jacobus DeWitt, British agent at Pretoria telegraphs that it would have been impossible for him to have gone to Dr. Jameson. If it had been possible, his mission would have been futile as fighting commenced at four yesterday afternoon.

The messenger referred to by Sir Her- cules Robinson was the one sent to Dr. Jameson with orders instructing the lat- ter to return to British territory and aban- don his aggressive movement against the Boers.

A later despatch from Pretoria says Br. Jameson was surrounded by a large force of Boers and was obliged to surrender.

Mr. Chamberlain, Secretary of State for the Colonies, sent a despatch to Governor Robinson saying: “I regret Dr. Jameson’s disobedience led to deplorable loss of life. Do your best to secure generous treat- ment of prisoners and wounded,”

Loxvon, Jan. 3.

Though excitement has been at fever neat respecting the Transvaal matter, in- terest was also aroused last evening by the statement in the Canadian speech from the throne, that the militia defences of Canada are to be strengthened. The Government here fully realize Canada’s grave peril from invasion if war were de- clared by the United Statee, and it is quite prepared to co-operate in putting the Canadian militia and defences on a first- class peace footing if Canada seeks British aid. The highest authorities here app!aud Canada’s calm attitude under the great proy caticn of abuse, and note the solid- itv of the Canadians from the Atlantic to the Pacific on the side of Great Br.tain.
