‘Ir is impossible,” writes Mr. Lionel Play- iair. ‘‘not to foresee that the United States will. in the end, be the great manufacturing country of the world; but they cannot assume this position under their prevent fiscal policy.” Protection in America, he holds, leaves Eng- land the market of the world. Why should Englishmen, then, want the United States to change its pelicy? the sceptical American may ask.

Tuer was, a few days ago, considerable ex- citement among the members of the Butter and (heese Exchange of New York, on uccount of an announcement that a consign- raent of European butter had arrived in that city. The butter came over on the Glasgow steamship Circassia and was madein Holstein. Germany. The importation ef butter is an experiment, and if it preves a success it will be a detriment to the American dairy inter- ests.

Dr. O’Brren’s account on Tuesday evening last, in Ludlow Hall, Summerside, of what he saw at Pompeii and Baiz, on the occasion of a visit which he made to those places. was instructive as it was en- tertaining. His audience was a very fair one for a winter night in this town, about two hundred and fifty in number, and com- posed of the leading and most intelligent the town and vicinity.

Mr. Joux H. Yeo, of the Union Bank, leaves to-morrow for Halifax, where he has accepted a lucrative position in the Halifax Banking Company. As a token of their esteem and respect, the many friends of Mr. Yeo met at the Rankin House last evening, and entertained him by a grand complimentary dinner. The chair was taken at 9.30, and after justice had been done t» the choice viands so bountifully and tastefully provided by the host of the Rankin, the literary part of the programme was commenced. The usual standard toasts were honored and afterwards and an unusual number of volun- teer toasts, interspersed with solos and choruses, were heartily drank. The speeches in response tothe different toasts were brief and witty, and generally closed with very complimentary allusions to the guest of the evening. Atan early hour ‘‘Our Next Merry Meeting’ was proposed, and the party dis- persed after spending a most enjoyable even- ing. Mr. Yeo, on his departure for his new field of labor, carriea with him the esteem and respect of a very large circle of friends, We Wish him success.

A eixt at St. Joe, who went crazy when her lover died, Was off toa dance on the fourth night after

Mr Antuvur Evans, corespondent at Rag- usa, of the Manchester Guardian, has been ordered to quit Austrianterritory within three days.

# WORCESTER woman has given birth to five children in fourteen mouths—twins, sup- plemented by tripfets—and all well and lively.

SWINBURNE, who used to be ‘‘a pallid and lank young man,’’ now boasts a robust figure, wears an artistic beard, often walks twenty moles a day, and is in the gayest of spirits.

Wren in Genoa lateiy Gambetta visited Verdi, wlio preser.ted him to his wife. The interview between the’ great Italian and the ex-Premier was cordial and non-political.

GENERAL IGNaticer is not held by the Czar to be responsible for the Panslavist utterances of General Skebeloff. He conside:s himself to be more firmly esta! lished in power than ever.

Tuomas Hoop, driving in the country one day, observed a notice beside = fence, ‘‘ Be- ware the dog.” There not being any signs of doz, Hood wrote on the beard, ‘* Ware be th« dog !”’

GENERAL GARI®4‘LOIS health is so much better that he wishes to go to Palermo to attend the commemoration there of the Sicil- lan vespers, which will begin on the 31st of March and continue four days.

THE chief of the revolutionary section, called by the Nihilists ‘‘Le Parti Noir,” has been arrested at Moscow. Aun official inves- tigation is being made at St. Petersburg into the method by which the New York //erald and some other foreign papers were able to obtain reports of the Nihilist trials.

Tue words which, by order of Queen Vic- toria, we presume, have been placed upon the monument, that illustrious lady has had erected to the late Lord Beaconsfield, indicate pretty clearly the tenor of a sovereign’s thoughts coneerning himself. ‘* Kings love him that speaketh right.” These are the words.

Hessy Hermann, who, because of being encien‘e, was respited from the execution of capital sentence for complicity in the assassi- nation of the late Czar, aud died last week in childbirth, was attended by the first accouch eur of St. Petersburg. The fatal result was due to stractural maiformation. Her child was sent io the foundling hospital.

ONE year ago the late President Garficld took the oath of office. He was then full of life, hope and high resolve. He was the hen- ored son of the American Kepublic. To-day he sleeps on a hillside of the great State ef Ohio, and fills a grave to which the hand of an assassin consigned him. Who shall tell what the future has in store? Who was more hon- ored and envied then James A. Garfield one year ago?

TRAVELLERS returned from China have to:d us from time to time that the queer people of that country imagine it to be the most ex- quisite torture they can inflict upon a man to keep him on his feet incessantly day and night, to make him walk, walk, walk forever. hke our old friend the *‘ Wauderiug Jew,” and it is even reported that by this method they inflict upon criminals guilty of the most henious offences a long drawn out and ter- ribly cruel death penalty. Can such things be? If they are, it is evident at a glance what a singularly heathen Uhinee the heathen Chinee must be. ae
