strengthened and drew closer the bonds of brotherhood and loyalty, and the Duke of Cambridge showed a recognition of the fact

Lord Beaconsfield.
The course of Lord Beaconsfield in re- gard to Eastern politics has been sustained by a majority of one hundred and forty- three. Isaac Butt supported the Govern- ment, as did Mr. O’Donnell, the Home Rule member for Dungarvan, who declared that the so-called ‘‘Reformers,” like their namesakes here in Canada, had not a rag of policy. Where are the cries of lessened popularity and diminished majorities now ? One said the Government would only have twenty five ; another went as high as fifty. What bullet will now be cast, or what little pellet folded to shoot at the great and sue- cessful Premier? What sputterings shall we next hear of purchased rant and mumbl- ing inalice !
It is curious to note how many objections to Lord Beaconsfield and Lord Beaconsfield’s policy are resolvable into the statement that he isaman of genius. ‘‘Genins,” says a great authority, ‘“‘scorns traditionary ways;” it takes its own course; eagle-like it cleaves a path through cloud and tempest or gazes undazzled on what would blind weaker vision. The hugest sarcasm his enemies can hurl at the calm head of the greatest of modern Prime Ministers is that forty years ago, when a young man, he had dreamed and speculated on such a policy as he has lived to carry out. Some of his crities seem maddened by what they call his cleverness. Their anger has about it the characteristics of the temper and barking cf a dog from behind an iron-barred gate ; impotent, bit- ter, brawling and ludicrous. Never, says the Saturday Review, was a minister assailed with such mean vituperation. The kind of madness we have alluded to has not spared the splendid and — intellect of Mr. Gladstone, who might have rehabilitated his shattered reputation had he generously and candidly hailed the triumph of his great rival, whose renown throws his own into shadow for all time. Mr. Disraeli the Reform bill of 1867. Mr. Gladstone passed the Irish Church act and the Land bill. Lord Beaconsfield has gone beyond even such great achievements, He has re- stored England her place in the councils of Europe, and nobody now sneers ; the giants were of old, the dwarfs are of to-day. Never was England so strong; never was her prestige greater ; never wasa nation’s heart more at rest with the consciousness that a wise and strong hand was at the tiller. The whole Empire feels the calm and charm and fortifying influence of a master mind. — Maal.

Mackenzie and the Maritime Provinces.
EXTRACT FROM A SPEECH OF EX-GOVERNOR ; TILLEY.
In the course of his last speech Mr. Tilley says :—
‘Then we come to another point, and it is this : Mr. Burpee, in his speech—and here, while flatly contradicting the assertions in this speech, I do not believe this report re- presents Mr. Burpee’s opinions, although it was said that it was reported as Burpee delivered it (laughter). In my opinion Mr. Burpee did not make the speech at all (more laughter) ; but as it is given as his, I must deal with it as it is. In that speech Mc. Burpee says that Mr. McKenzie was a friend of the Maritime Provinces, and sup- ported all propositions in their interest. It is a marvel if it isso. Down to 72, in all the papers in the interests of the Opposi- tion, it was asserted that the Government were buying wp the Maritime Provinces to the detriment of Ontario and Quebec. Any one who read those papers knows it to be so. You know it to be true. You know this was the cry (hear, hear), although we were entitled to all we received. Mr. Mc- Kenzie in favor of the Maritime Provinces ! Why, I say positively that HE OPPOSED EVERY PROPOSITION IN FAVOR
OF THESE PROVINCES,
Why, I recollect one question on which the Government was nearly defeated. It was when we proposed to take off certain duties on tea, and the Government was only sustained by nine of a majority. Then, with to the readjustment of the debt, of which we proposed to give one million dollars more to New Brunswick, and one and a quarter to Nova Scotia. Mr. McKenzie opposed that. And again, when we proposed to give $150,000 to New Brunswick in lieu of the export duty, he opposed that. And I might name other in- stances of a like character. But still we are told Mr. McKenzie is, and always has been, a warm supporter and a friend of the Maritime Provinces. (Great applause.) Why, the canvass all through Ontario was that we wanted foo much. (Great applause. ) Now I will
CALL IN A FEW WITNESSES. I will call Mr. Elder, and Sir Albert J,
Smith, and Mr. Burpee himself, to contra- dict Mr. Burpee.
MR. ELDER’S TESTIMONY. I will read froma speech delivered by
EX AMINER.
: CHARLOTTETOWN, PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, FRIDAY, AUGPST 9, 1878
NU. 36if
: nab gels Nir. Hider in 02, when he was a candidate for the Dominion Parliament, when he is thus reported in his own paper ;
“Mr, Eider began by defining his posi- tion in respect to the Government. It was not essentially distinct from that of Mr Palmer, We have the Government of Can- aia and the Opposition or Ontario party. | hae Government's sympathies are large and free, while the Opposition grudge the sub- sidy to Nova Seotia, the terms asked by Manitoba. and British Columbia, and the better terms for New Brunswick.”
SIR ALBERT ON THE STAND,
Now, I call Sir A. J. Smith, who was elected an Anti-Confederate by the Opposi- tion in ‘72, He is thus reported :—
‘Mr. Smith replied to Mr. Knapp with moderation and furbearance. He had gone to the Dominion Parliament with strong prejudices and personal feelings against the pwty in power, but he had not allowed. his feelings to influence his actions. He had not been an ally of either party, but ocen- pied the cross benches, and had in all cases studied to serve the interests of his country, and in the future he should continue to pur- sue a similar course. He could not allow the opportunity to pass, however, without bearing testimony to the fact that the Gov- ernment had, especially during the two years, shown that they possessed broad views on all general questions, and a gener- ous disposition in dealing with the interests of the Lower Provinces. Under such cir- cumstances he believed we had nothing to gain by a change of the administration. He was perfectly content with the Govern- ment as now constituted with Messrs. Tilley and Mitchell as our Province representa- tives.”
WHAT MR. BURPEE SAID,
Now we will call on Mr. Burpee and hear what he says. This is what he said in 1872.:--
‘He believed in sustaining the Govern- ment, as when he looked at the difficulties in the way and the newness of our Con- federation, it was not advisable that the party should be overthrown. This was especially necessary when he looked at the condition of the Opposition in Ontario,” (listen to that, now, gentlemen—a laugh, ) ‘‘and the manner in which they have sought to make capital of that Province.” (Mark this, gentlemen.) ‘They showed in their principle a selfishness which could not but be observed and caused the reflection as to what they would do if in power”’—(mark that, gentlemen, if in power.”)
Then there is an editorial in Mr. Elder's paper on the morning of my election in ’72 calling upon the electors to sustain me. Now, then, gentlemen, does it seem plain that Mr. McKenzie could not have shown that generous liberality, that wonderful sympathy, towards the Maritime Provinces that Mr. Burpee said he has? (Great ap- plause.) I bring three witnesses to show that he had
DISPLAYED GREAT NARKROWNESS OF MIND
and want of sympathy while dealing with our interests; but now they claim he is to be supported, let the consequences be what they may, because he is a liberal Friend to us. Is not this an absurdity? (Cries of ** yes it is.” >_>
Senator Macpherson told the electors of Bruce, and truly so, that no defence has yet been attempted of the enormous increase in. collecting the customs revenue that has taken place under the present Govern- ment ;—

King Alfonso intends erecting a 1 i- ficent Basilica to the memory of the late Queen Mercedes, and will contribute one million reals ($56,000) annually until it is completed.

What a truly beautiful world we live in.
Nature gives us grandeur of mountains

We can desire no better when in perfect health ; but how often do the majority of people feel like giving it up disheartened, discouraged and worried out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily ob- tain satisfactory proof that Green’s August Flower will make them as free from disease as when born. Dyspepsia and Liver Com- |plaint are the direct cause of seventy-five per cent. of such maladies as Biliousness, Indigestion, Sick Headache, Costiveness, Nervous Prostration, Dizziness of the Palpitation of the Heart, and other distress- ing symptoms.
