Gladstone and Northcote.
To Americans, says the Rochester Demo- cra’, tae most interesting part of Sir Stafford Northeote’s career was his connection with the joint high commission Which framed the Treaty of Washington, by which the Alabama claims were settled by peaceful means. In the early part of his career Northcote was Mr. (jladstone’s secretary, and when Mr. Gilad- stone, as Premier, had the opportunity he uppointed Sir Stafford a high commissioner. A writer who knew the kind feeling existing between the two men in spite of a difference in politics, says :-
‘‘Mr. Gladstone always had a kindly feeling towards Sir Stafford, which was warmly reci- procated. The latter often had occasion to defend his old parliamentary traine: from the attacks which were not infrequently made upon him by precocious young Tories in the tea room and smoking room of the House. That very cordial relations were maintained between them was proved soon after in a striking way. The Liberal Government was selecting coinmissioners to proceed to Wash- ington to discuss the Alabama claims ques- tion. Mr. Gladstone offered Sir Stafford a post on the joint high commission, and he ac- cepted the responsibility unhesitatingly. By this means the whole matter was withdrawn from the sphere of purely party politics, He ianded in this country quite free from the prejudice against it that so many of his party had betrayed in the heat of debate. He was well received, and in after life was proud to tell of the many friends he made on this side of the Atlantic while discussing the provisions of the Treaty of Wash- ington. The result of the delibera- tion of the joint high commission may be said to have been received with at least satisfaction in England, The Government, it is stated on high authority, offered Sir Stafford a peerage in consideration of the part he played in settling in an amicable way the quarrel which at one time threatened to end in a bloody war. He was, however, too good a Tory and so excellent a party man that he did not believe in accepting gifts from his politieal adversar- ies. Besides he knew that his proper sphere was the House of Commons. Lord Ripon was rewarded with a Marquisate, but Sir Stafford
Northcote gained nothing but political prestige.” i-vrensiiiaetnieenantas Wiener
‘The Two Parties.
(Montreal Gazette.)
Entering office at a time of unparalleled commercia! depression, after five years of Liberal rule marked by incapacity, abnega- tion of principle, confessed inability to lift a finger to arrest the course of retrogression and decay upon which the Dominion was set, the Conservative Government has left « record of wise legislation, of material progress, of commercial development with- out precedent in the history of this country —a record upon which the appeal .to the electorate is now made. The National Policy and the Pacific Railway policy aione suffice to stamp the- impress of competence upon any party, and though these great achievements dwarf all other legislation in the compari- son, there have been, in every direction, in every province during the last eight years measures of like tendency in the promotion of the welfare of the people which constitute the strongest claim for a renewal of the confidence so largely reposed in ‘the Government during that period. The issue presented to the electors is clear and dis- tinct. Union and Progress is the wateh- word of the Conservative Party; disunion and retrogression that of the Literal party. l'The retention of the present Ministry in office means the perpetuation of the policy of commercial development, cf business prosperity, of manufacturing activity, of Northwest settlement, of railway extension, of the promotion of inter-provincial trade; in a word, of Canada for the Canadians,and Canada first, last and all the time. The advent to power of the Liberal party would mean the reversal of the existing fiscal policy, a paralysis of trade, a halt of material advancement, a check to railway construction, and an encouragement to the smashing of the Confederation into its original fragments. Between these alterna- tives the electors have to choose.
mn St. Paul’s Ice Carnival.
With the mercury 15 degrees below zero, the streets of St. Paul, Minn., were thronged Monday night to witness the opening of the second winter carnival. The illuminations greatly surpassed those of last year. Kight- cen miles ot gas pipe have been used in the construction of arches and sidelights, and 20,- 000 colored globes have been placed thereon, The ice palace stands in Central Park. En- tering the palace grounds the visitor passes through an arched gateway of ice flanked with two smaller arches, the whole 60 feet wide and 50 feet high. Over the entrance to the palace, the word ‘‘Welcome” is carved in the archway. Just above sits King Borealis, sup- ported on either hand by a ose ar bear. The palace is in the shape of a Latin cross, and covers 42,000 square feet. The main tower from the ground to the top of the flag- staff is 135 feet high. At every angle of the wall is a turret 55 teet high. The palace will have 81 are electric lights, and the grounds will be lighted with 106 are lights with trans- parent colored glcbes. At the east side of the grounds are 20 'odges or tepees. These are oceupied by 160 Soux Indians. Walk-On- Stone is the head chief. Evergreens have |been placed about the grounds, The toboggan slide is located at the southwest of the park, and is now open. There will be no cessation of the festivities until one week from Satur- day, when the carnival closes with snow shoe contests, tobogganing, es, storming of the castle, fireworks and illuminations.

Evictions in Ireland,
Exciting .scenes were witnessed on the I7th near Caheecentish, county Limerick, at the eviction of Edmund O'Grady, a ten- ant on the Gabbett estate. O’Grady learned that a force of 180 policemen and _ bailiffs, under command of Capt. Plunkett, were coming to evict him, and prepared to give them a warm reception. With the assist- ance of neighbors, he cut down trees and shrubbery, with which he barricaded the house. ‘Then O’Grady and about 2) of his friends proceeded to the upper story of the house, cut away the staircase behind them, and stationed themselves at the windows tu await the coming of the enemy. The visit- ing party soon arrived, and stormed the house with sledge hammers and bayonets. Ladders were placed against the walls, up which policemen and bailiffs swarmed, but the defenders threw boiling water upon their assailants, and hurled the ladders to the ground. The attacking party advanced repeatedly upon the house, and they were as often repulsed, the contest lasting fully three hours. Ultimately a hole was cut in the upper floor, through which some of the policemen crawled, while others covered the occupants of the house with rifles, threatei- iny to fire if the slightest hostile moveuient was made. ‘The eviction was then effected, ‘and several persons were arrested. During the excitement crowds of peuple gathered about the house and cheered the deteaders. For this display of sympathy they were re- peatedly charged upon by the police and vigorously clubbed.

The ¢. P. R.
One of the great Enylish Reviews has « long article on the Canadian Pacific Rail- way. The reviewer points out the advan- tages offered by the road for the conveyance of the Pacitic and Atiantic mails to and from Japan, China and Australia, being under one management from sea to sea. He says: The question, will the line pay / can be answered in the affirmative. it is now earning a substantial amount in excess of the fixed charges, a result aston- ishing and gratifying to the shareholders. The fixed charges will not increase for some time and the traflic receipts will at the worst show a large development. The fin- ancial success of the road seems to be assured. Canada is already reaping a good return for the sacrifices she has made, and England cordially hopes her expectations will be fulfilled, inasmuch as the work deeply interests the Mother Country. The great Northwest has been opened up to emigration, where millions of acres of | wheat-producing land await the settler. No ‘longer need Canada’s sons go to the States |to make a new start, nor need emigration ' from England drift to New York.”

Reason for The Desolution
The reason for the dissolution is thus given in an Ottawa despatch :—
The reason for the dissolution of the House before, instead of after, another session is obvious to every one. The immense increase of the number of voters under the Franchise Act of 1885 practically rendered the late House nou-representative of a very large body of the electors, and it is in strict consonance with recognized constitutional practice as estab- lished in England that so soon as possible after a considerable extension of the franchise an appeal should be made to the new elec- torate. This practice Sir John has fol lowed, and the House has been dissolved at the earliest possible moment after the last of the voters’ lists were received from the re- vising barristers, which was in the last week of the old year, being two weeks ago, In ap- pealing to the country the Ministers do so with the consciousuess of having fairly, firmly and successfuliy conducted the aifairs of tne nation during the past four years through a trying, troublesome and difficult period of our country’s existence, and they can hopefully and confidently appeal to the people for an endorsation of their satisfaction with the man- ner in which those affvirs have bee conducted,

What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Boschee’s German Syrup within a few years has astonished the world. It is without doubt the safest and best remedy ever discovered for the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung troubles. It acts on an entire ly diferent principle from the usual preserip- tions given by poone as it does not dry up a Cough and leave the disease stiil in the system, but on the contrary removes the cause of the trouble, heals the parts affected, and leaves them in a purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in the house for use when these diseases make their appearance, will save doc- tor’s bills anda long spell of serious illness. A trial will convince you of these facts. 1t is positively sold by all druggists and general dealers in the land. Price 75 cents, large —

A sad outbreak of insanity is reported from Whiteday, West Virginia. Washing- ton Lake has four grown daughters. Two weeks ago, Tahitha got married and the young people of the neighborhood, includ- ing her four sisters, celebrated the event by dancing all night and nearly all the next day. Onthe evening of the second day Martha, one of the sisters, lost her reason and developed into a raving maniac, and four days later the bride became hopelessly insane. Since then three other sisters have exhibited evidences of insanity. ce
