Why Has He Changed ?

In his address to the electors in 1875, Mr. Workman, of Montreal—whose candidature Mr. McKenzie heartily endorsed—said :—

“T solicit your support as a manufacturer who has, for many years, been largely inter- ested in that important branch of national in- dustry, and knowing from personal experience the trials and difficulties which at present sur- }round it, 1 have daily experience of the ruinous competition to which it is exposed from manufacturers in the United States, who make Canada a sacrifice market for their sur- plus stock, and rush through the length and breadth of our land selling their goods at prices far below those charged in their own country, thus carrying off the ready money which ought to go into the pockets of our own people. If returned to Parliament, I will support any measure that will prevent this, and vote in favor of any tariff imposing the same rate of duty on American manufactures’ that they charge on similar goods manufactured im Ca- nada.”

What change for the better has taken place in our industries to convince Mr. Workman that his policy of 1875 would be a foolish policy in 1878 ?

The Spirit of Unrest Abroad.

The spirit which pointed a gun at the Emperor was not inspired by any hatred of him. For he isa kind, good old man, and has only a short time to live. But there is a spirit of unrest abroad, and Europe labors under an internal convulsion which no con- gress of Veaconsfields and Schouvaloffs can assuage. Look around you! France is un- der arms! Russia has spent her last rouble and millions besides, and craves more sol- diers. The Czar, they say, sits among his comrades, leaning over the back of a chair, drinking champagne out of a tumbler, ner- vous, and wanting to abdicate, and wonder- ing what it all means. For Nihilism and communism and petroleumism are in the air and under his palace walls. Turkey is under arms and wants more soldiers, and that poor trembling coward of a Sultan shivers in his palace on the Bosphorus, shiv- ers at every sound, fearing the pistol or the knife, and changing his Ministers as often as he changes his hose. Austria calls for more men, and the Emperor ‘s so bothered with Bohemian, Magyar and German quar- rels that he has become gray, and talks of abdication. Germany, like an overburden- ed beast of toil, staggers and trembles un-

are told of ‘‘stronger” and “‘ stronger meas- ures.” If three or four meet to chat they are bidden to move on. Strangers are watched as under the French Empire, and you see about you, you feel it in the air, even as you feel that intense calm and diffi- culty of breathing that precedes a thunder- storm, that there is a spirit rife which no one seems to understand, no one has con- trolled, and that Europe, and especially Germany, is in asad way. One wishes it were otherwise, for who can help loving this fine German nation, endowed with the noblest qualities of a race? But a people crave something better than blood and iron, and one cannot help feeling that these strange and uneasy symptoms, this Emperor shooting, and flamings of Ve- suvius show how seriously this military spirit is pressing upon Europe. Yet how can it be amended? That is the question. Thus far the Kings have not succeeded. I wonder if the people can do any better ? If, for instance, two peoples, as fine in all that constitutes a nation as those of France and Germany, cannot see some way to live side by side, neighbors and friends, without keeping a million of men under arms, al- ways making ready to cut each other's throats. This, perhaps, belongs to the sentimentalism of politics. But it is the feeling that comes to you in Germany. There are troubles here no Congress can cure, which must be cured by one wise, magnanimous statesman or they will cure themselves in « terrible way. France is not the only nation that, under pressure, would permit a Reign of Terror. Let us hope that civilization has carried us beyond that fear, but 1 confess that were I a king, [ would dread the spirit which which pointed the pistols of Roedel and Nobiling as much as that which oiled the hinges of Robespierre’s guillotine. I can see no dif- ference; and perhaps I cannot better close this letter than by quoting an observation that fell from Gen. Grant when discussing this subject: ‘‘I see,” he says, ‘‘they talk of an Empire in France. There is nothing in France, nothing in Europe, to my mind, to justify such a hope. From all I see there is nothing clearer than that Europe will see a good many more Republics be- fore she has another Empire.”—Coriespond- ence N. Y. Herald.

Vienna, Aug. 6.

Detailed reports show that the inhabi- tants of Maglai, after promising uncon ditional submission, barricaded the main street and deliberately prepared an elabor- ate ambuscade for the returning Hussars. It is said that. Gen. Phillipopovitch has reached Maglai and intends to make a signal example of the insurgents.

The Porte continues to temporize con- eerning Caratheodori Pasha’s negotiations for the Convention.

Austria will probably soon address em- phatic language to Stamboul. Another despatch says that the Austrian commanders in Bosnia have been ordered to resort to the utmost severity.

Lonvon, Aug. 6,

Italian papers state that the Sultan tele- graphed to Queen Victoria requesting her mediation to prevent Austria advancing be- yond Banjalauka.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 5. it is believed that all difticulties with Greece will be arranged by the mediation of the British Embassy. Vrenna, Aug. 6.

The Cabinet is strongly urging the Porte, in view of the Bosnian and Herzegovinian difficulties, to come immediately to a clear understanding about the position the Porte intends to assume.

Lonvon, Aug. 6,

A despatch from Vienna to the Daily Telegraph, says that the ambuscade at Maglai and Citiak caused great indignation in Vienna. The opinion is gaining ground that the Turkish authorities are promotin the insurrection. But it is more pro that the Porte has lost all prestige or power of control, not only with the iahabitants, but with the troops of whom several Tabors have joined the insurgents both at Serajevo

iand Mosta.

The Rhodophi Commissioners, except the German, having telegraphed that they are about to endeavor to prevent certain con- templated Russian atrocities, the Russian Commissioner has returned to Constanti- nople, declaring that his colleagues are seeking for Russian atrocities to the neglect of other duties.

Nienna, Aug. 6.

The troops are advancing on Maglaj amid continuous rain. A report was received of two more sharp skirmishes on Monday, at Keosa and Gracanica, in both of which the insurgents were ‘defeated. The Austrian joss was trifling.

Lords Beaconsfield and Salisbury have re- ceived congratulatory deputations from various deputations from various Conserv- ative associations throughout the country. Lord Beaconsfield reiterated the previous opinions expressed by him in relation t«: his foreign policy, but emphasized the ne. cessity of Conservative organization at home ; which is by some people construed as a hint of an early dissolution.
