I[t 18 just ae well to remenrber these things when alarmisis tellus that the great American people are about to stampede into a policy of anti-British intervention in this South ! African affair. Nor will the said alarmisis be able to escape the impetus of these two instances by pretending that they are the work of echolarly recluses, who nave no influence with the people and are not “in politics.’ We rather svapect that both the American Senate and President McKia- ley are about as deep in politics as men can be ; and that thee are both aware of the fact thata Presidental and Congres sions! election is due this aatumn. We need vot believe that the American “House” isrun from the gallery until we see it done.”

Real Imperial Uni y.

Sir Charles Tupper is in lice with the great Imperial statesmen, with whom, in- deed, he deservedly ranks.

On the eame day he and Mr. Chamber. lain declared against » Jegialative union between Cavada ard the Mether Coun- try,meiotaining that euch s ucieo would emb.rass both parties by bamwpering their freedom of actier, and that the real unity betweer parent State and Dominios ccu!d be trusted to grow stromger every day, bied'pg thetwo together by the bocde of genti sent

Lord Sslisbury is of the same opinion.

Speaking atthe British Empire League banquet ow Menday, he deprecated any atiempt to expedite a fusion of the colonies with the Mother Country by legielation, declaring that it will be better to allow this wonderful growth of sentiment to grow by its own laws, and accordiog to the impulse of its own vitality.

In that event, he said, it would ¢xerciee an itfluence over the characier, progress, aod habits of the world such as had never before been exercised by any Empire.— Mai! and Empire.
