Gleanings.

I observe that a change is being made in the diplomatic corps in Washington. I: seems that no nation sendsto any other aat on @ representative of higher rank than ig accredited to its court. Now, for some ceason America has never heen represented by ambassadors, but by ministers, which is * grade lower indiplomaticrank. The con 3«quence has been that the great powers of Europe have (by reason of this rule) been unable to send ae representatives to Wash- ington those who have risen to the first rauk in diplomacy, —ambassadors, like other oeople, objecting to ** Paddy's pcomotion,” which they consider it wouid bs to accept a position as minister. Congress, by a late sct has remedied this, and has authorized the President to accredit ambassadors to al] powers which, in this respect, wi!! recipro- cate. Great Britain has been the first to sct, and I see that last week Sir Juiian Pauncefote’s rank has been raised to that of amtawador. The American people, who are veritable children regarding titles and decorations, are greatly pleased at the promptness of the action, of our Mos Gracious Sovereign. This is what Mr Chipmsn, of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs has to say about it :

“I suppose that the object of the British Government was, in the first place, tv promote Sir Julien Pauncefote and, in the eecond place, it is a recognition of the great im- portance ef this government in the affairs of he world, and especially in its relation to Great Britain. Ambassadors are sent to first. slass courts as a rule and are supposed to represent the very highest rank of diplomatic service. An Ambassador, theoretically, re- presents in the fullest degree the person who accredits him to the gevernment and has the amplest powers. So far ag I am informed it is principally a matter of rank, because negotiations on important topics are now carried on under almost daily instructions from the diplcmsats’ home governments, 80 that the fuliness of authority which the title ‘ambassador cariies with it is very much circumscribed by reason of steam and cable communication and the practicability of frequent instructions from home office.

*‘An Ambassador by his rank, as 1 under- stand it, takes a certain precedence in the diplomatic corps wherever he is stationed and is paid a greater salary than the Minister of a iower grade, The act of Congress authoriz- ing the President to confer the title of Am- oassador really gives the Minister who hus chat title no increase of pay. The title is not of great consequence to one of our Ministers, because we have no real diplomatic service in the sense of trained officials which foreign governments have, but it would give our Ministers all the advantages, and I might say somforts, which the title confera ou the re- presentatives of other powers at the same courts,

‘There has been opposition to the conferre ing of the title of Ambassadors on the part of ongress which [ never could understand. It ‘s simply a title aad, as 1 tind out in modero practice, would hardly give more power, If we are to maintain a diplomatic service, we certainly should give our ministers a rank which would iosure them the respect and pre- cedence due to the Miuister or any other pow- er.”

I think it was last year, that the Master if the Rolls, in one of his *‘ talks” at the Y. M. C. A., addressed some sensible re- marks to his audieace, earnestly entreating chem to abstain from the Yankee vulgar- smas, which so disfigure the conversation of half the number of people one meets now- a-days, and which are rapidly degrading the English language as spoken by us to the level of the American tongue. [| do not know if any of the managers of that ex- cellent institution were present and heard Judge Hodgson’s remarks; if so, it is to be regretted that they did not profit by what hesaid. For the last few weeks they have had outside the door of their association a large blackboard announcing a series of lectures by distinguished geccle- men upon various phases of life, in which, every week, an exceedingly common-place vulgarism appeared. 1 allude to the bybrid ‘‘stand poiut”—a most objection- able expression— word, I cannot call it,-—for there is no such word in the English lan guage. The obj ctions are well summed ae by Richard Grant White, ove of the Yankees who can write decent English .

**To say the best of it, it is a poor com- pound. It receivis some support, but not full juetification, from the German stand. punkt, of which, indeed, it is supposed to be in Angiicized foxm, first used by Professor Moses Taylor. Grartiog for the moment, that ‘stand joint,’ may beascepted as mean- ing standiog-point, and that when we say, trom our stand-point, we intend to say from the point at which we stand, what we really mean is ‘from our point of view,’ and we should say so. Periphrasisis to be avoided when it is complicateé or burdensome, but never at the cost of correctness, and peri ohrasis is sometimes not only stronger be- cause clearer than a single word, but more elegant. ‘Standpoint,’ whatever the chan- nel of its coming into use, is of the sort to which the vulgar words ‘waabetub,’ ‘shoc-horn,’ *brew-house,’ ‘couk-stove,’ and ‘goecart’ belong, the first four of which are slovenly and uacouth abbreviations of ‘washing-tub,’ ‘shoeing-horn,’ ‘ovewing-house,’ and ‘cooking-stove, the last go-cart being a nursery word, # counter part to which would be ‘rock-horse,’ instead of ‘rock. ing-horse.’ Compounds of this kind are pro. perly formed by the union of « substantive or particip'e, used adjectively, with a substan- tive; and their meaning may be exactly ex pressed by reversing the position of the ele- ments of the compound, and connecting them by one of the prepositions ‘of,’ ‘to’ and ‘for.’ Thus ‘death-bed,’ bed of death; ‘etumbling bieck,’ biock of stumbling; ‘turning: point,’ point of turning; ‘play-ground,’ ground for play; ‘steam byat,’ boat tur or of stesm (bateau de vapeur); ‘starvation-p int,’ point of starv- «ion; ‘herse-trough,’ trough for horses; ‘raic- bow,’ bow of rain; ‘bread -knite,’ kuife for bread; ‘house-top,’ top of house; ‘dancing-girl.’ girl for dancing; and ‘standing poin', point for or of standing; and sc forth. But by no contrivance can we explain ‘stand point’ as the point of, or to, or for, stand.”

It would seem that there are many young authors who have come to the conciusion that the vigorous language occasionally used by Mr. Rudyard Kipiing is the secret of his success as ajwriter of realistic novels. In

+ nema am,

consequence of this delusion they stuff a short story with a choice collection of ex pressive oaths, and deluge magazine editors with the stuff, in the belief that they will create an impression that a second Kipling has been discovered. ()ne such ignoramus has just received a letter which should con- vince him of the error of his belief, for, in returning his manuscript, the editor wrote the following brief note : ** There’s nothing funny in ‘Dama!’ as you'll find out in the next world.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Duty of the Upper House.

S1r,—The Lagialative Council of this

Province never had a more important duty 'o perform than they have at the present time. Upon them rests the responsibil ty of deciding whether or not the amalgama tion bill, the gerrymander biil and the dis. franchise bill, or any of them shall become the law of the land. It is gratifying to notice that during the present session the gentlemen composing our local House of Lords are acting so far in # high miuded and independent manner, regardiess of the political party to which ‘hey may respectively belong. They cannot be to» highly commended for this. One principal function of the Upper House is to siand as a check, a constitutional bulwark against the impetuous legislation or partisan policy of the majority in the Lower Hvuse. The eyes of the whole Province are now upon our Upper House. Will its members play the parts of statesmen and patriots and save their country from impending rain, or will they bend their necks to the will of the party that rules the Lower House without considering the high claims of the duty they owe to themselves, to the honor- able and distinguished position they occupy, and to the country whose interests they hold in their hands. There certainly should be but one opinion in the Upper House as to the unwisdem, invidiousness and wrong that characterizs the Disfranchise and Gerrymander bills, and there should be no hesitation whatever in throwing them both out. Further, it ie quite clear that in the present crisis of affairs as to the Amalgamation bill the amendment of Mr. A. B. McKenzie shovli be adopted. Durivg the present session we have had the most convincing evidence that the question of doing away with the Upper Honse is such an important one that the electors should have an opportunity of pronouncivg upon it at the polls It is noteworthy that in the United States— shrewd, practical, economical as the peuple are—through all the vicissitudes of their history the ancient form of an upper aad lower house has been sacredly preserved. It is not the retention of our Upper House as such that is now advocated; but we re- iterate in tha most emphatic manner the opinion that the wisest, the only true and patriotic course tobe taken by the Upper House at the present juncture is to refuse to pass the bill snuffing itself out of existence. ELecror.

“A Good Man Gune to His Reward.”

Died at his residence, Morell, on the 9th inst., Mr. Clement Sinnott, in the 71st year of bis age. The d«ceased settled in Morell more than half a century ago, when that locality was then an unbroken forest. By honest in- dustry and thrift he materially assisted in con- verting the wilderness into what is now one of the most flourishing and prosperous farming districts on the Island. Apartfrom being a first-class mechanic, he was elso one of the foremost farmers and stock-raisers in Kings County. He also toc’: an active interest in all public questions affecting the welfare of his native Province, and in times gone bye was a trusted friend and ardent supporter of the late lamented Hon. Edward Whelan. Being of a kind and generous nature, a charitable and Christian disposition, enemies he had none. ** Bia friends were legion,” who always found a gevial welcome beneath his hospitable roof, and who will long cherish his memory with feelings ot respect, love and veneration. By bis death the community has lost a valuable member of society; his family, a wise and lov- ing husband and father. His widow and fam- iiy have the sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement.

James Biair’s Case. Napaneg, April 10.—A highly interest- ing case has happened in this town, which is creating a good deal of comment. Mr. James Biair, a well known merchant tailor here, has for fourteen years been a sufferer from that terrible disease known as Bright's disease of the kidneys. He suffered so terribly that one hour's work at the cutting ‘able would completely exhaust him, and he had to almost give up work altogether. He tried almost every known remedy for his complaint, but without any good results Medicai men and patent medicines failed tim, and he was gradually getting worse every day. Fin»l'y he read a despatch in one of the local p»pers, stating that a man named Murray, living in Gravenhurst, had been cured of kidney trouble by using Dodd's Kidney Pills. Asa last resort Mr. Blair began taking these pills, and three boxes made anew man of him, and seven boxes completely cured him. Mr. Blair is back at work eguin, and says that he feels twenty years younger, and that these pills completely cured him. His recovery has created quite a sensation.

The St. James Gazette suggests that ae none of the Universities have such a Chair, the new Imperial lnstiiute might make and maintain the appointmen: of a Professor o Colonial Law, Uistory and Statiaties. The idea is anexceeding good one and is capable of considerable extension.

Commendable.
