Notes and Clippings.

— The New York Herald says: The pro- | posed tax ofa centa dozen on _ imported ‘eggs would increase our surplus revenue ,$130,000 annually from Canadian cygs alone. We import thirteen million eggs a 'year from Canada.

— George Brooks contributes a powerful article to the Westminster Review, to show that the Americans are essentially hostile to{Great Britain, and that Anglophobia

yas a ruling passion of the people during the recent Presidential election. He ad- vocates the suspension of diplomatic inter- course with the United States, until the politicians of that country learn to behave themselves like gentlemen.

—It is officially announced that King Leopold has created under the Presidency of the Prince of Ligne and General Baron Jolly, an African society of the Red Cross. The objects of the society are to succer the victims of war and epidemics, and to aid African explorers. The King will make the society a personal present of a vast sanitorium for this purpose. The site of the establishment will he at some point on the north-west coast of Africa. The scheme is considered as important as the Congo en- terprise, and causes great satisfaction.

—Itisestimated that Jay Gould ownsabout one-ninth of the entire railroad system of the United States. He has $20,000,000 in Missouri Pacific, $10,000,000 in Manhattan Elevated, $5,000,000 in Atchison, $3,000,- 000 in St. Louis & San Francisco, $2,000, - 000 in Texas Pacific, $1,000,000 in Wabash, $8,000,000 in Union Pacific, $4,000,000 in Missouri, Kaneas & Texas, large interests in the Iron Mountain, Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe and the St. Louis Bridge Co., $2,000,000 in Pacific Mail and $30,000,000 in the Western Union Telegraph Co., be- sides being concerned in hundreds of enter- prises connected with railroads and _tele- graphs. He owns 200,000 miles of rail- roads, and it is often said of him that he owns the city of St. Louis.

— Premier Mowat declared at the open- ing of the Ontario legislature that the Que- bee conference resolutions are to be made a party issue on every platform in the Do- minion at the next general election. The Quebec fiasco cost the provinces nearly $1,000 a piece for the entertainment of the visiting provincial delegates. Now if it cost $125 a day for eight days to provide sufficient champagne to convince each of these delegates of the propriety of accepting these resolutions, how much would it cost to induce a majority of the Canadian people to endorse them by their votes at the polls ? An accurate computation on this basis would seem to indicate that the expenses of the grit party at the next general election will be quite as heavy as usual.

—The greatest diamond yet discoved, of 240 carats, writes a London correspondent, is not, as stated, ‘‘ The finest and largest stone ever found ai the Cape.” That pre- eminence is the attribute of the rough diamond sent home in 1884, weighing 457 carats, free from fault or tinge. It was cut into a brilliant, named the ** Imperial,” of 180 carats, beside a fragment producing a brilliant of 19 carats sold to the King of Portugal for £8000 or £9000. The three great brilliants of the world are the Im- perisl, the Regent and the -Koh-i-Noor, weighing 180,135 and 105 carats. The Imperial has “not been advertised, hence the frequent errors in the press giviag pre- cedence to the Regent ; but its supremecy will come under public notice at the French exhibition, where a place has been secured for it in the place d’honor, Main avenue.

—-Senator Macdonald, an Opposition politcian, is reported by an Opposition paper as speaking to the five hundred re- presentative Canadians who sat down at the Toronto Board of Trade dinner, as follows: ‘*]T am going to assert that you can find no place on this globe where there are fewer causes for grumbling. I am here to assert that there are no people who should be happier than the people of the Dominion. I do not believe that happiness is dependent upon unbroken quiet. I believe the stuff of which men are made is developed under difficulties; that no man who meets difficulty in a brave manner does not rise in the esti- mation of his fellow-man, and does not thereby secure a good that could not have been otherwise obtained.” These words are words of encouragement. Gentlemen of the Opposition are not all croakers.

—The Montreal Herald was recently ask- ed to explain what possible use there could be in the Grit party continuing to advocate Unrestricted Reciprocity between Canada and the United States, in view of the re- cent success of the Republican party in the States, and the we'll known position of that party regarding reciprocity of any kind be- tween the two countries. To this question the Herald replied that there was no tell- ing what the United States would do if only Canada would rid itself of its ** protection- government.” Commenting on this amus- ing reply to a very important question, the Toronte World remarks :

** Our neighbors have just voted to put a protectionist government in power for four years from the 4th of March next. Nor is this all; they have changed the Free Trade House into a Protectionist House, though not by a very wide margin; whilethey have farther increased the Protectionist majority in the Senate. Nor is this all, for the new North- western States soon to come in aresure to add some more to the Protectionist majority in Congress. Under these eircumstances, what nonsense to object to a Protectionist govern- ment in Canada! Suppose this is what we have, it will no more than make us eveu with hour neighbors. But probably the Herald thinks things would be just {right if we had a Free Trade Government in power here, with a Protectionist Government in power in the States overthe way. Well, that would be a fine thing but very bad for Canada. How- ever, the fzerald may content itself; this particular . lomeration of affairs it is not
