In the year 1844 Lord Beaconsfield, in a speech on Ireland, said -—
‘*Thus they hada starving population, an absentee aristocracy, and an alien Church, and in addition the weakest Exe- eutive in the world. That was the Irish question. Well then, what would honorable yentlemen say if they were reading of a country in that pesition! They would say at ence, the remedy is revolution. But the Irish could not have a Revolution; and why! Because lreland was connected with another and more powerfui country. Then what was the consequence? The connexion with England thus became the cause of the present state of Ireland. If the connexion with England prevented a revolution, and a revolution was the only remedy, England logically was in the odious position of being the cause of all the misery in Ireland. What, then was the duty of an English Minister! ‘To effect by his policy ail those changes which would do by force. That was the Irish question in tts integrity. The moment they had a strong Executive, a just administration, and ecclesiastical equality they would have order in Ireland, and the improvement of the physical condition of the people will follow.”
Mr. Gladstone managed to suppress the ** alien Church,” notwithstanding that Lerd Beaconstield did his utmost to prevent it, and is now trying “to effect by his policy all those changes which a revolution weuld do by foree,’ while Lord Beaconstield again does all he can to prevent it.—N. Y. Times

Mr.. Thomas Hughes, who is engineer- | ing a British immigration niovement to- ward a four hundred thousand acre tract of land in the Southern States, in a speech recently delivered in New York explained why he preferred the Southern States as a home for British settlers to the British Colenies ‘The British Colonies were, ac- cording to him, so far away, had such severe climates, and such a rude civiliza- tion, or something to that effect. Mr. Hughes is one of those copperhead English radicals, who are never so happy as when belittleing their own country. Fancy any man of average geographical acquirements | cracking up fever-smitten Tennessee, with | its sultry summer climate at the expense of | tie bracing climate ot Central Canada, and exalting the civilization of the much-lynch- ing Southern States over that of orderly, law-abiding, school-loving Canada. How- ever, despite the unpatriotic tempera- nent and tendencies of Englishmen of the Hughes’ stripe, Canada’s merits as a/| field for immigration are steadily forcing themselves on the convictions ef the British people. Another delegation has reached | Uanada from Engiand, representing a body of men proposing to seek homes for them- selves in Canada. This delegation has come at the expense of those they repre- sent, and will inspect and report.

A singular accident occurred on a Colo- rade railway the other day. Several cars were thrown over an embankment and wrecked,-owing to the high wind which had prevailed blowing out the sand of the eubankment from under the rails, leaving the track suspended without support. Sneh incidents are not uncommen in that section,
and are calied “‘dry washouts. ”
A relic of the Spanish Armada was drawn from the boettem of the sea at Siains, Scotland, the other day, by some salmon fishers. It wasa large gun from the spot where a ship belonging to the Armada is known to have been wrecked, and strange to say, although it has been in the sea for ovea 200 years, it seems as good as ever. The gun is eight feet long, thirteen inches im diameter at the breach, and with a bore of four inches. It is loaded, partly with nails or hammered iron. Severai guns from the same place have been herctofore raised and presentéd to the Queen,
People with economical tendencies in the matter of postage stamps, if there are any in these parts had better abandon the prac- tice of using cancelled instead of clean stamps. ‘he practice, if not common, is, at least, often adopted in the Upper Pro- vinees. But the practitioners are coming to grief. The offence is punishable by a pretty stiff fine; and the fining is going on. Une of the latest instances is that of a married woman near Otiawa, who used cancelled stamps on a couple ot letters, was detected and even heavily fined a few days ago. People may sometimes err in this way thoughtlessly. But it will not be found a paying speculation. The Post Office officials are required to show themselves for the prevention and detection of this species of fraud.

Reports from Candahar and its neigh- borhood represent the Afghans as being thunder-struck or something like it at Gen. Robert's swift and decisive sucecess, Poor fellows, their wonderment is natural. Ayoob had won credit for really clever generalship, His army was relatively large, and composed of tine fighting material, A gonsiderable portion was made np of regular soldiers, and Ayoob’s wild mountaineers were fan- atics of desperate valor. He was strong in artillery of a superior character, and that artillery was excellently well served. His traops were yet flushed with victory over British soldiers, and they had rendered sorti-making a very dangerous business to the Candahar garrison. Ayoob’s army held a line strategical position, and was strong- ly posted. it far outnumbered Robert's féct-sore force. But Roberts came one day; the next he saw where Ayoob’s host was ensconced; and the day following that
host was nowhere in particular. The fact is that no victory ever won by the
British in Afghanistan was better fitted to astonish the Afghans then the victory that so signally avenged the slaughter of Burrows’ ill-starred force. Its moral effect - be great from the Caspian to the Indian Ocean.
