England’s Future Problematical.

‘‘In former times,” says the writer of the

future of the civilized world was the subject of discussion, it seemed most questionable what would be the future of Germany, whieh was undergoing a transformation, or that of France, reeling from one revolution to ancther. To-day the general impression is that no European State, except, perhaps,

| Russia, has a future sv problematical | 4s that of England, which, even in |the lest generation, seemed to be founded for eternity. England - still

holds the position which she attained ‘during the century following the reign of ‘William JILI.; but an impartial observer cannot bat notice that the British will to | live (‘Wille zum Leben’) is decaying. * * In Ireland, the country which once seemed ‘destined to realize the permanent connec- ‘tion of the mother country with the might- iest of her colonies, the conqueror of 1882 | plays a part which every day becomes more contemptible. The green island which Oliver Cromwell changed into an abjectly | submissive domain of Anglo-Saxondom has become the theatre of a permanent con- -spiracies reaching to the very walls of the Tower. England’s position with regard ‘to the European powers is such that she ‘now finds it necessary to court the good- | will of these very countries which but a few | years ago looked longingly forward to the | British Alliance, and expected the dawn of ‘a new era for themselves and for Europe in ‘the electoral triumph of the present Prime | Minister.” Clever people the Germans, no , doubt; but what rubbish could be greater ithan this. Our Williezwm Luben decaying ‘indeed ! Why, our superabundant vitality is re-peopling the world with the English race.-—Pall Mall Gazette.

Newspapers.

In a recent numbe r of the Fortnightly there is an interesting article op “News papers’ which tells eo far what they have been and what they are, what they ought to be and what they are likely to become.

In one sence newspapers are of very high antiquity, in another they are comparatively of yesterday, Six hundred years before Christ the Romans had something which might be so designated in their ** Acta diurna.” And yet anything approaching to what is now known as a newspaper is com- paratively of very recent date. ‘The Italians led the way, followed by Germany and France, with England bringing up the rear with her first weekly, in 1622, a small ven ture of but four pages, and these only eight inches by five.

The Morning Post—the oldest of existing British newspapers—appeared on the 12th of February, 1773, and though much larger than its predecessors, was 24 inches by 15 and with only four pages.

The ‘‘Society Journals’ of the present day may be bed, demoralizing, and unpre- sentable, but they are decent and even demur compared with the ordinary news- paper of a hundred yearsago. Not even the least respectable of the daily or weekly press would now venture on what was the common staple of newsmongers, ‘“when George the Third was King.” Aye, even though now there is entire freedom while then there was a very severe censor- ship.

How daily journalism has during this century advanced in tone, ability and in- fluence need not be told. Fer a long time it was harrased by Governments in every possible way. It was restrained by specific statutes; held in check by stamp duties; muzzled by advertisement duties; and starved by paper duties. In spite of all hindrances, however, it has steadily grown in range and influence and now it is recog- nized as without question the ‘fourth estate,” and as such quite as influential as any other three if not as of them all to- yether in promoting the welfare and ad- vancement «f at least Englishspeakers.

Fruit and Milk.

Miss Lizzie Knowles, of Connecticut, still continues her enforced diet of fruit and) milk, which she commenced about six, months ago. She is unable to account for| the curious change in her diet which her | condition demanded. She used to eat as, heartily‘as anyone. Something like a year| ago she grew suddenly ill, and for a time her life was despaired of. \When at ijast) she aid improve it was found that it was! with the greatest difficulty that she could |

The Panama Canal.

The course followed by the Panama Canal officials is not such to inspire confi- dence either in themselves or in the com- pletion of that* undertaking. There is a very great deal about the management of this enterprise seemingly that no man can find out. A vast amount of money has been spent and @ comparatively sinall amount of work has been done as yet in cutting through the Canal. There appears to be some question as to honesty in handl- ing this money and some not very credit- able charges have been made against the officials at Panama. As yet nobody has un- dertaken to refute them or to offer explana- tion in the matter. The indications are that the affairs of the Canal Company are somewhat mixed and investors who have put their money in the enterprise must be anxious for some reliable statement con- cerning its affairs and assurances given that business principles will hereafter govern its conduct.

Perhaps the position and standing of the Press have not as yet been recognized and estimated as they ought to have been, and as they will be in the not far off tuture if those connected with it in all its depart-

The Paris Figavo has a bitter article against England. It declares England never helped, but always thwarted France. Her friendship is false and alliance with her is hollow. The Figaro advises France to abandon relations with England, and give up her prejudices and hatred and make an alliance with Germany. ‘‘Ger-
