The Situation in Germany.

Tue young Emperor's proclamation to the people of Germany is very peaceful and reassuring in its tone, though, as the Lon- don Times remarks, it lacks the spontaneity of sentiment and individuality of utterance which are so conspicuous in the addresses to the army and navy. It is highly ap- proved by the press of Berlin, which says, on behalf of the people, that the Emperor's avowal will be reciprocated as cordially ass they are made. No person, however, ex- pects immediately, practical developments pointing to a critical state of affairs. All the best informed military and diplomatic authorities believe that the new Emperor's desire is to hasten the final outcome, what- ever it may be, of the present political situation. As Crown Prince the Emperor freely expressed the view that the condition of armed suspense in Europe for over two years ought to come to an end, that the triple alliance was able to defeat any pos- sible coalition and ought not to wait fora convenient time for its enemies to open the attack. The Emperor's deep and open ad- miration of Prince Bismarck is considered as likely to bind him for some time to the Chancellor's policy; but within his circle his character as a resolute, somewhat self- willed and ambitious man produces the be- lief that, despite his friendship for and devotion to Bismarck, he will not wait iong before seeking to give a decided impetus to Germany’s foreign policy.

The Patriot's Retreat.

CoMPELLED to retreat from the position it took a few days ago, viz., that the Gov- **has made determined efforts to prevent free intercourse” between Canada and the United States,the Patriot has fallen back upon two statements which are equally baseless. The first is that, in respect to the articles on the statutory list which the United States placed upon their free list, “the Government refused to meet the Washington authorities in the matter until compelled by the English Government to place the articles on the free list.” The fact is that the Government received a memorandum from Washington, setting forth that certain products of Canada had been placed upon the free list of the States, on Saturday, the 30th day of March ; and the Government announced that each one of these articles had been placed upon the free list of Canada on the following Wed- nesday, the 3rd day of April! Is it likely that the British Government could have ** compelled” the Government of Canada to

ernment

do anything which the latter did not wish to do, in the short space of three days? It is not likely. We may, therofore, conclude that the Patriot's first statement is untrue.

The Patriot's second baseless statement is to the effect that Sir Charles Tupper’s unrestricted offer of reciprocity was hypo- critical and ‘* contemptibly mean” inasmuch as he knew that the plenipotentiaries for the United States could not accept it. He knew, also, that the plenipotentiaries could not conclude a treaty—that it must neces” sarily be ratified by the Senate. But it is not argued that Sir Charles was hypocriti- cal and contemptibly mean becanse he made other propositions during the formulation of the Fisheries Treaty.

— Mr. W. E. McLellan, for some time editor of the Winnipeg Free Press, a Lib- eral journal, and now living in to Minne- sota, writes:

‘There is too strong a tendency in the Do- minion to make the most of the unpleasant features of the country and compare it dis- paragingly with the United States. After eight months residence in the American North-west, I have no hesitation in a that in every respect, as a place to live in an a field for business or enterprise, it compares unfavorably with the Canadian. Last winter was as cold in Duluth as I have ever experi- enced it in Winnipeg. In addition, I verily believe the snow fall was greater during five months here than it was during the whole pre- veding five years which I spent in Winnipeg. It snowed about every second day, and life was a procession through huge drifts. Spring opened up with rain, mud and fog, in which we are still wallowing—that is the only ap-

ropriate word. According to the newspapers, Soolnons is ‘‘ booming,” and fortunes are easily made here. Let any one who is desirous of ascertaining the untruthfulness of this come and experiment. My advice to the readers of the Sun is to stick to Manitoba. Your Pro- vince, in all it natural and social conditions, is superior to either Minnesota or Dakota, and in every way a more desirable place of resi- dence.”

— The gross tonnage of Great Britain entered and cleared decreased in 1886 but more than recovered the deficiency in 1887, the amounts being in 1885, 146,744,834 tons; in 1886, 144,267,114 tons, and in 1887, 189,642,860 tons. Omitting the coasting and taking only the foreign trade, the results are similar, in 1885, 64,281,642 tons; in 1886, 62,841,077 tons, and in 1887, 65,161,774 tons. The manner in which steamships are gaining on sailing vessels is shown by the fact that 196,975 tons new steamers was added in 1885, 154,638 in 1886, and 225,440 in 1887. It is this change the commerce of the world of steam for sails that principally accounts for the de- crease of ship building in Canada, along with the simultaneous substitution of iron or steel for wood.

-- The Toronto Globe admits that the new Canadian loan has been ‘‘even a greater success than was anticipated,” and its London correspondent says this success is “chiefly due to the high standing of Canadian credit and Mr. Goschen’s recent changes in the cUinsuls.”

“THE DAILY EXAMINER, ~~

Bishop Courtney.

Tue Bishop left Charlottetown for Mount Stewart and Georgetown by the early train on Tuesday morning, accompanied by the Revs. J. Simpson, 8. Weston-Jones, Fred. E. J. Lieyd, T. B. Reagh and C. F. Lowe. Service was held in the Church of St. Al- ban, Mount Stewart, at 2.30 p. m., at which a very large congregation was present. Prayers were said by Mr. Simpson, and the Lessons were read by the Lord Bishop, who also preached. The sermon was a peculiarly fitting and helpful one, and cer- tainly most impressive.

The Bishop and clergy left Mount Stew- art for Georgetown by the evening train. At 7.30 p. m., a Confirmation service, pre- ceded by Evensong, was held in the Church of St. George, at Georgetown. The church was filled to overflowing by a most atten- tive, reverent and devout congregation. Prayers were said by the Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd, the Rector, and the First and Second Lessons read by Revs. T. B. Reagh and r. W. Johnstone, respectively. Eighteen persons were presented to the Bishop for the Apostolic Rite of laying on of hands. The Bishop's address was at once eloquent, powerful, forcible and eminently practical. Che Altar was draped in white and becom- ingly, though simply decorated with flowers. The Bishop and clergy, who now included the Revs. T. W. Johnstone and T. C. Easton, and Mr. Easton, the worthy and indefatigable lay-leader of the parish, vested in the parish schoolroom whence they pro- ceeded to the church. The music was very satisfactory and the singing certainly hearty, the organ being played by Miss Aitken.

On Wednesday morning, at 8 o’clock, the Bishop celebrated Holy Communion, at which there were 41 communicants, all the newly confirmed, with two exceptions, making their communion. The Epistle was read by the Rev. James Simpson, who as- sisted and served His Lordship at this ser- vice.

At 10 o’clock a. m. Matins and Litany were said in the church, and the Bishop gave an address to the clergy, for whom the service wasspecially held. It might be wished that all the clergy not only of the Island, but of the whole diocese, had been present to hear the wise and prudent words of fatheriy counsel, advice and exhortation which fell from the Bishop’s lips. So earnestly and sympathetically expressed, they could not but sink very deeply within the hearts of the little band of clergy who were gathered together within the Sanctu- ary in the perfect quiet—the impressive stillness of the morning hours.

The Bishop and clergy, including Mr. L. W. Watson, of Charlottetown, were gener- ously entertained at luncheon by Mrs. Owen.

At 3 p. m., the quarterly meeting of the P. E. Island Clerical Association was held in Mrs. Tupper’s drawing room, which she very kindly placed at the disposal of the clergy. There were present the Lord Bishop of the diocese, the Revs. J. Simp- son, 8S. W. Jones, T. W. Johnstone, T. B. Reagh, C. F. Lowe and Fred. E. J. Lioyd.

An opening address was delivered by the President, the Rev. T. B. Reagh, in the course of which, after having extended a very hearty and respectful welcome to the Lord Bishop of Nova Scotia on his first ap- pearance on such an occasion, he spoke in most feeling terms on the approaching de- parture of the Rev. T. W. Johnstone from the Island. He spoke with admiration of Mr. Johnstone’s long continued$work for the Church in the Island, and showed in how many ways he had contributed to

deepen and extend her influence. The Clerical Association undoubtedly owed its existence to. him, mn. the

increasing harmony and mutual good feeling between the clergy and their flocks and one another which is plainly apparent, was pointed to as the result of the various meetings which are held from time to time at different centres in connection with the association. Later on during the meeting the Rev. James Simpson proposed, and the Rev. =Mr. Jones seconded, that this meeting deeply regrets the approaching re- moval of the Rev. T. W. Johnstone from our midst,and earnestly prays that the bless- ing of God would rest upon him in his future labors. It was unanimously carried by « standing vote. Mr. Johnstone appro- priately and modestly replied, making some very prudent and helpful remarks to his clerical brethren.

A inost interesting and, in many respects, suggestive paper was read by the Rev. S. Weston-Jones, on the snbject of ‘*Systematic Giving.” It was followed by «a lengthy but instructive discussion in which the Bishop was good enough to take apart. Amongst the other business done it was agreed by the clergy to localize the Dawn of Day as a parish magazine for the various parishes in the Island.

Evensong was said in the church at 7.30 p. m., at which all the clergy were present and a large congregation. The sermon was again preached by the Bishop, who was good enough to take the place of the Rev. T. B. Reagh, the appointed preacher, who was somewhat indisposed. The lessons were read by the Rev. 8. W. Jones.

The prospects of the Church in George- town are exceedingly bright and much good must result from the visit of the Bishop to this portion of his extensive diocese. His Lordship, the clergy and Mr. Watson re- turned to town this morning.
