MORE TERRITORY.

A large addition has lately been made to the British Empirs. The Briiisn Senth African Company have,heretofore,had only mining and trading rights in Barotselan 3, But the King of thar country has decided ‘6 come in under the British flag and has ceded to Great Britain the whole basin of the Upper Zambesi, which inclodes the awe-inspiring Victoria Palls,next to Niagara wonderfol in the world. The British frontier in Sowth Africa now extends to the borders of the Congo Free State, and German and Portugese South Africa. So peacefully and quietly the realm of Victoria the Good is extending together with tie blessings of civilization and Christianity. Surely, “ peace hath ber victories, no less renowned than war.”

Tue Patriot expatiates on the prosperity of Canada under the Liberals. It will be remembered that, according to their ante- election predictions, we were all to grow rich under Liberal rule, as a result of Free Trade and Economical Government. Bat we still have the N. P., with its incidental protection and high texation; and the Government's expenditures have increased by we!l-nigh ten millions of do!lars a vear. So if we are prospering, as the Patriot says we are, the fact is not dueto Free Trade or Liberal economy. But a good many persons in this Province, at least, will be inclined to doubt the Patriot’s optimistic views. Will anyone, outside the charmed circle of succeseful Liberal office- seekers and favorites, testify that Liberal Govern~ ment has made him rich? s eet oe

War Tax. Burraro, Nov. 18.—Special Inter- nahhonal Revenue Commissioner Frown

has received a communication from Wash- ington requesting him to put before the people in a consy icuous manner section 11 of the War Revenue Act. The latter states that complaints have been made to the Tieasury D. partment by the Uniied Sta’ s District Attorney E. P. Close, regarding tbe payment of the revenue stamp tax on dratts and cheques sent from this side to Canada. The complaint implies that when

a party wishee to be sent a draft cor order |

from Canada he goes to the Canadien banks and makes ont ‘he instrument. The bank traneacts the business through their New York correspondents, When the person to whom the dra(t or order is made out receives it, he endorses it in,favor of some creditor, without putting on the oec- essary stamp. Whea the draft or order is forwarded to New York for collection, the stamp is put on bythe New York bank, and the bi'l in turn sent to the Canadian bank from which the document was sent

The banks of Canada object 10 paying thie, asthey have in po way benefitted by the transaction. Section 11 provides that the acceptors cf any draft ororder from a foreign country must etamp it. If any

one neglects to do this, he is sulject to a

fine of $100. The Canadian banke, through

their local attorneys, propose to prosecute persons who fail to comply with this law,
