Steele passed part of last evening with the young lady, but did not turn up at the Basilica, where a large number of Miss Wainwright’s friends had assembled on invitation, this morning.

Ottawa Notes.
Orrawa, Sep. 10.
The Government have received a copy of the Imperial Act passed this summer abol- ishing Vice Admiralty Courts and empower- ing all Superior Courts in British posses- sions to exercise the powers of Admiralty Courts. The effect in Canada will be that after July next all Superior Courts will have jurisdiction as Admiralty Courts, unless the Dominion Government avails itself of the provisions by which it may designate the court or courts so empowered. The Act provides that the present Judges of such courts must be recompensed by pension or otherwise for loss of salary consequent on the change.
The Department of Public Works have stipulated that soft coal required for the Ottawa Government buildings this year must be supplied from Nova Scotia mines.

Vancouver being now in direct commu- nication with Japan, where cholera is said to prevail, the authorities are asking for the establishment of a quarantine station there. Such a precautionary measure may be necessary, but it is interesting to note that Vancouver is not backward in com-
ing forward to ask forwhat it wants. But that is the way cities forge ahead.

Notes and Comments.
—The American Banker says that the soundness of trade is indicated by the re- latively small number of failures, being less }
than a year ago in importance and in num- ber. |
—A contemporary says thatja mere mor- | sel of reciprocity would now make the Grit | organs happy, while formerly they howled | loudly for the whole sixty-million market. Necessity is sometimes the mother of con- tentment.
—Late advices from China show that the celestials, after having employed British officers to bring their fleet up to the desir- ed standard of efficiency, are now getting rid of these officers. Admiral Lang, who has done much to make China a maritime power, has been driven into resigning, and his place is taken by a native commander. The Chinese evidently mean that no European power shall hold a predominant influence in their military or naval affairs. China now possesses a powerful fleet, and one which, properly oflicered, would prove a formidable naval antagonist in war with any nation.
-—The Empire remarks: In the variety of their attacks upon our national policy and their advocacy of United States interests the Opposition organs are very apt to make some blundering avowal of atruth which they have been obstinately denying. Thus the Globe unthinkingly admits the object of the Wimanite agitation, and the result that would follow if it were successful, by saying that ‘* by reciprocity Mr. Blaine has found an easy way to escape from the glut within the home market resulting from the long maintenance of war duties.” Relief of this glutted market by free access to ours would necessarily cause a tantamount displacement of Canadian manufactures, a consequent loss of employment to Canadian operatives and of their custom to Canadian farmers. It is this admitted glut in the markets of the United States which explains the eager- ness «f their manufacturing interests to supplant those of Canada, and also shows the danger of slaughter sales both to remove the glut and to crush their Canadian rivals. Then prices would at once mount to the level in the United States.
—The Toronto Telegram is of opinion that Canada does not want to be a_ back- kitchen to the United States. It says: ‘** Canada and the United States need never quarrel. There is room on this continent for two nations. Two people can prosper side by side, and become to older lands shining examples of the power of peace. Political unity is not essential to the per- petuation of peace between the North American nations, and with the best of feelings each for the other the two can separately work out a glorious destiny. Patriotic Americans can scarcely appreciate a true Canadian’s loathing for the idea of annexation. They, in their pride, fancy that this country ought to be flattered by a proposal to make it a back kitchen to the United States. The can discern glory for the Dominion in absorption by the United States. National conceit sharpens the alien eyes that see glory in a destiny that would be a grave for real Canadian patriotism. Canada wants to stand alone. It welcomes every good American tothe hospitable shores. There is a fine affinity of virtue between the best American and the average Cana- dian. Our good people are not better than the best American, but Canada has no class that corresponds to the worst elements of United States citizenship. Canadians are, as a rule superior to their cousins in every- thing but numbers, and the enterprise which population develops.”
