Notes and Comments.
The Brantford Telegram says that those who are always howling about Can- ada’s debt would do well to note that the total nath nal debt of the Austraiiau colo- nies is about $800,000,000. The popula- ation of these colonies is only about 552,000.

The untenable position of the United States in its dispute with Great Britain re- varding Behring Sea is being cleariy ex- posed by American writers. Recently Mr. tobert Rayner, of Salem, Mass., published unable and exhaustive letter which com- pletely disposed of the American case, and now Mr Dal!, of the Smithsonian Insti- tute, of Washington, writes confirming his
views in &ll essentiais.
4 London despatch t» the New York Post states that the story 1s current in Lon- lon that Salisbury has written to the Queen irging her to exact from the Princess Louise of Wales a promise that upon her marriage she will renounce all her rights to the succession of the throne. in the event of two sons of the Prince of Wales dying without issue the child- ren of the Princess Louise would be n the direct line of succession to the Crown. rhisis by no means such a remote con-| tingency, as may at first sight appear, | snd the fact that it is quite within the |
bounds of possibility that Lord Fi‘e may, | in course of time, be the father of a mon- arch, justifies its discussion. Such a de- n uement, should it ever be brought about, would be regarded with anything but favor by the more influential of the old nobility no idea of being ruled over by we of Fife’s children.

little band of earnest, but not prominent men in this country have been educating public opinion in favor of the commercial tederation of the Empire. Snubbed at first as akiu to madmen, stifled next with silence, then damned with faint praise, the work has ateadfastiy been carried on until the people of Great Britain are on the point of waking
from their fatuous dream, that cheapness in price is more Loportant than a plentiful sup- ply. Let Canada and Australasia give us a

4 BUDGET OF GENERAL NEWS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD. Monvreat, July 26.—D. 8. Carrie, comp- trolier of the city of Winnipeg, arrived here to-day en route tothe eastera prov- inces and New England States. He stated that the erop prospects of Manitoba and the Northwest Territories were expected to be considerably better than last year, the toral yield amounting to from ten to twelve million bushels for export, or an average of 16 bushels per acre. The yield varies from 12 to 30 bushels per acre, and in certain districts what is termed a half crop is as good as « full crop in Ontario. Farmers have exerted themselves to put all land possible under cultivation, and the outlock is most encouraging. There are about 640,000 acres opened up. Orrawa,July25.—The American author- ities have backed down in their attempt to enforce the alien labor law against Can- adien boatmen at the Thousand Islands. Wueetrne, W. Va., July 25.—An at- tempt was made yesterday to wreck a crowded picnic train on the Wheeling and E m Grove Railroad. A rail was placed on the track in an open field, and a short distance away a man was found driving a spike between the ends of two rails. “He was captured. He is suspected of being the man who made two attempts at train wrecking on the night of July 4th. Santis, July 25.— The trial of strikers arrested at L[reslau has resulted in the . 2 r

BELLEVILLE, July 25.—An interesting case is up in the police court here. Mrs. Wood charged Mary Quinn, an honest- looking Irish girl, with abusive language. Mary said to her: ** You are the devil who bewitches the cows,” and it cost her $10. Mary informed the court with sincerity that left no doubt but that she believed what she said, that Mrs. Wood had a mys-

Orrawa, July 25.—The Minister of Fisheries has decided upon the reorganiza- tion of the fisheries inspection service in New Brunswick and Nova Sectia, as inti- mated a few days. The Minister has found that the present system of provincial dis tricts is too unsatisfactory, and will substi- tute smaller and more practical districts, which will enable inspectors to keep a close snd vigilant supervision and report directly
to Ottawa. It is thus hoped to obviate the grievances which have hitherto existed.
PuirapeLpata, July 25.—The wreck of | the English bark Medway (foundered in | 1853 while bound from London to Philadel- phia with a cargo of tin, lead and spelver, worth over $150,000), has been located by the Atlantic and Gulf Wrecking Co. off Cape Henlopen.
