THE RELATIONS OF THE GREAT POWERS.

Being asked what his view was of the re- lations of the great powers, he svid: won Bp expressing my personal opinion, |

vuld say I feel sure that a vast and appal- ling , war 18 a certainty in the near future. But this, indeed, everybody may be said to | know. The rapidly increasing armaments, the huge burdens which several of the| powers are laying upon themselves, and the | directions in w rhich the armaments are | being de veloped and massed make*war in-| evit: ible. sut whether it will be this sum- | mer ornext, there is only one man in Europe who knows—that is Prince Bis- marek,

THE LESSON OF THE GERMAN ELECTIONS. |

Correspondent —What do you take to be}

the lesson of the German elections ; do | they mean a Franco-German peace ? |, Gen. Woiseley-—I do not see that they | do; but their overwhelming lesson, to my mind, is the disregard of the popular voice |

in Imperial matters. Prince Bismarck’s line, from first to last,has been to disregard the people’ s wishes, snub them and ride rough-shod over them; yet by doing so he has created out of a handful of petty German States one of the most powerful empires of the world, an empire, moreover, in which the ver ry people whom he has thus disregarded are the first to take enormous legitimate pride. ENGLISH POLITICAL SQUABBLES. Correspondent—Do you see the profile of an English B smarck in the horizon /

Gen. Wolseley—No; I do not. The miserable rsa: (a and petty personal aims of our party government preclude any such hope. I do see, however, with the greatest satisfaction and gratification, the beginning in English life of something like a National party, in which Liberal-Conser- vative and Radical will drop their differ- ences on the questions of an Empire Bri- tannica, and indeed an ultimate Federation of all English-speaking peoples.

AN ENGLISH-SPEAKING FEDERATION, Correspondent—That then is your ulti- mate ideal for us /

Gen. Wolseley—-When every man who speaks English is inthe same Empire or Federation, or whatever it may be called,

an international millennium will be reach- ed; for we should then be able to peace and freedom on all the world.

AN ADMIRER

imp se

OF AMERICA, I am a great admirer of America and American people. I witnessed at Wash- ington the final review of the armies of the Republic at the close of the war. The spectacle of that immense force meiting away among the people and being almost immediately absorbed was the most colossal I have ever seen, and left upon me an in- effaceable impression. I never lose an opportunity of assuring people in England that the education of a public man is not complete until he has been in America and stayed there at least six months. Every step which brings England and America nearer together seems to mea step nearer the realization of the ideal civilization of the future. I am therefore always delight- ed when I hear of an Englishman marrying an American lady, or vice verse. THE FISHERIES DISPUTE. With such a miserable squabble ever a kettle of fish as the present fisheries dis- pute I have not a moment’s patience. I am convinced that if I or any man of ordi- nary tact or experience was sent over with suflicient anthority to arrange matters with a similar American representative, the whole affair could be settled out of hand in a week, ——n oe Tue Star of Montreal has created a_ sensa- tion by bringing detinite charges of blackmail- ing against members of the City Council. The charges are that a Mr. N. De Disle was blackmailed to the extent of $1,000 to get an alteration in the homolocated plan of the city affecting his property; that the Royal Elec- tric Light Company paid $10,000 to get its contract with the city; that $4,000 was sub- scribed by partics interested in the latter scheme for the purpose of influencing alder- manic votes, and that the St. Lawrence Sugar Refinery, desiring to lay a water pipe from its works to the canal, was blackmailed to the extent of $1,500 to buy votes from aldermen.
