‘AUSTRALIAN SHIPPING TRADE,

Tus rapid growth of the Aastraiian shipping trade during the last few years is largely due to the improvements effected in steam navigation, wad the increased size of the steam vessels employed in both the intercolonial and over-sea business. For-~ merly, steam communieation between Europe and « Australia was maintained by 8 ‘monthly branch service of the P. and O. line betweea Burope and India, but with the establishment of direct communication by the Orient Company 4 great change be- came effected, and at the present time, in

: : re high priced.’ If :

{ ad dition to” the weekly mai! service effected | by the @ alternate fortnightly sailings of the |P. and QO. Companies from Sydney, there ‘are monthly services by French, German, ‘end other boats, many being of of large size, lsome of the German steamers being over 10,000 tons burden. There are also three lines of steamers between Sydney and | Japan, and intermediate ports ; another | between Sydney and San Francisco, and fifth between Sydney and Vancouver. ~ Be- cently there has beea increased communi -~ cation between the port and those of South Africa. In addition, | there are smaller services with various parts af the Mast. ‘In 1890 the total shipping trade of New ‘South Wales was 4,761 872 tons ; eince /then_ it bas snoually “increased until, in 1899, it was6,995,551 tone, being 5.2 tons | per head of population. eecirsssennitallel lee stadia Aipntionininipiciy

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—The Legislature of British Columbia is now in session.

—In the language of the Montreal Gazette, the session of Parliament which haa just closed has been one of the longs est, most wearying and jeast profitable in tne record.

—It is expected that Hon. A G Jones will receive his commission as Lieut enaut~ Governor of Nova Scotia this week, and will be sworn into office on Wedneeday, Aug 1. As Government House has to be renovated and painted the new Governor will not take up his residence there uatil the autumn. Sir Malachy B.Daly’s tenure of office expires on July 28th, on which date, accompanied by Lady Daly and Miss Daly, he will leave for Chester where he will spend the eummer. They will epend tne winter in England.

—The huge stake that Britain has in China is forcibly revealed iu the following statistics furnished by reliable authority. _ the total anuual trade of Chins. amouut- ing to £69,000, 000 Britain’s share is 63 5, pe cent. Jay van’s share is Only Sl p:r cent,

hile the United States comes third with und+r 10 per cent, and Russia a modest fourth with less tvap 5 per cent. As for the other countries who have prominently ltaken haads in the Chinese game, France and Germany, their trading interest in | China, plus thatof all other nationalities,

‘amounts to only 10 percent,

; —A memorial bust of the late Sir John Thompson, erected by the Nova Scotia Bar Society in the county court house of ‘Halifax in memory of the departed jurist ‘and statesman, was unveiled on Wednes-~

day by Lieutenant-Goveroor Daly, in

presence of a goodly company of lawyers and friends of late Premier of Canada.

In addition to members of the Nova

Scotia bench and bar, the speech of the Lieutenant-Goveraor was a graceful trib- ute to the work of the departed statesman R L Borden, M P, president of the Bar Society, had charge of the ceremony, Dr. B Russell, MP, who bas just returned from Ottawa, was also present. After sonanes by Chief Justice Macdonald,

Archbishop O’Brien, Attorney General Longley and BR L Borden, M P, the cere- monies concluded with ‘*God Save the Queen,” played by the @3rd Rifles’ band.

— The St Johns (Que) News supplies Sir Wilfrid’s measure as a probibitionist {or the guidance of its temperance reacers. It asks a very pertinent question and con-

cludes with an important statement of fact, a6 followe: “If parliament had been asked to pase a law prohibiting the manu- facture and sale oj liquor in every prov~ ince but Quebec, then Sir Wilfrid’s ar- gumént might be held to have some force in it; butwhen it was simply asked to authorize every province, Quebec includ- ed, to prohibit or tolerate, as it saw fi‘; there was no separating fence put up, the ee was general, not particular.

bat ie there so peculiar about themanu- facture and aale of liquor that each prov- ince should not have the same control over it that it has over'the licensing, over ite mines, ite forests, its game, its fisher- ies, without thereby being placed in the position of separating it from its neigh- bors? ‘be fact of the matteris that the Laurier Government played with the pro~- hibitionists for political purposes, and be- trayed at the dictation of Quebec.”

if IGHT “HAVE BEEN.

The Admission Made by a Boer Envoy.

Mr. Robert P. Bell, the South African traveller and lecturer, relates an amusing little anecdote ofa conversation he had with the firet of the Boer envoys, P Loutar Wessels. .

Mr. Bell bad given his illustrated lec- ture on South Africa, “Land of the Briton and Boer,’ in tbe City Hall at Waterbury Conn., and the Boer sympathizers of that

‘place, who hugged to their breasts the delusion that their native land was stil} being oppressed by Eng- lan!, arranged for @ monster meet- ng to follow at which the Boer envoy snd the Trish disturber Maud Gonne were o he the principal speakers. The meet-

og was beld and attended by a mob of shouting Anglophobes at fifty cents a head [he Gonne woman confirmed the opinion of al! rational people who heard her, tbat she had long siace forfeited the usual cousiderations accorded her sex by her eatravagant statements and utter die~ regard of truth and her shameful attacks on Her Majesty Queen Victoria, whom all Americans of the better clase re- spect and honor.

She was followed by Mr. Wessels, who, besides announcing the fact that he wasa Boer,a fact which anyone knowing the Boers might have doubted, as he had very much the appearance of a gentlemaa, gave what purported to be a brief history of the English and Dutch occupation of South Africa, laying particular stress on the ex- cellent native policy pursued by the Boer States.

At the conclusion of the demonstration the promoters had arranged for a meetiag between Mr. Wess ls and Mr. Bell,at which time they confidently expected to enjoy the latter’s complete discomfture, when the envoy,with his might’ weapons,Trath and Right, would completely rebutt any derogatory statements concerning the Boers, which had been made by the American.

Ths argument between the two gentle- men continued for some time aad occasion- ally waxed exceedingly warm, the Boer who was « Free Stater exhibiting very little knowledge of the Transvaal.

At length, after Mr. Be)! bad walled the envoy’s attention repeatedly to the? articles of the convention of 1884 and urged that the principal stipulation made therein by Great Britain was in substance “Equal Rights for All” in the Transvaai, sud Mr Wesells had replied that such con~ dition bad been complied with, the Ameri- can said: ‘‘Mr. Wessels, as you know, I am an American and represented large French interests in the Transvaal, and if when I first entered the country, the laws a3 to franchise had been reasonable, it it would have been to my advantage to become a oburgher and settle smong the Boers; but, as you are awere at that time it would have been neceesary for me to first foreswear allegi-~ ance te my own government and then re- mainin a probationary state for [4 years, daring which I would have to maintain a residence iu the South African Republic, ana after that I would be given but a partial franchise.”

The Boer mused @ moment, and then replied: ** Let me see—vou are an Ameri- cen and you are representing French in- torests 2? Well, why did younot make those facts known and we would have made yous citizen at once ”!

Still the Boers contend,that ail men were |

treated fairly and alike in the Transvaal and no favoritisus was shown.

Mrs. Gladstone.

T. P. O'Connor writesin** M, A. P.”: “To every member of Parliament Mrs. Gladstone was familiar. She always oc- cupied the same place, the corner seat io that part of ihe Jadies’ gallery which is at the disposal of the wife of the Speaker, or his daughter if he has now'fe. Her pres~ ence there was as certain a proof trat her husband was going to make a great speech as the criflamme of Henry of Navarre was to his troops during battle. She seemed to be almost part of the House itself ; she leaned forward s0 as to catch every word, aud was so palpably interested in her hushsnd and soanxions that she seemed almost part of himself.

* It waa her old-!ashioned idea that the wife should always be in the gallery to encourege the husband in the greater mo- ments of his career. Once a friend of mine pad to makea speech of some length and some perplexity during the big home« rule struggle, and his wife had got a place to hear him. There was some difficulty in getting tc the front row, as the gallery was crowded. Mrs. Gladstone turned round and said: * Why, it’s his wife!’ and saidno more. That seemed to her a sufficient aod unanswerable claim to any plase the lady might like to have.

“Mrs. Gladstone was even more at bome whea her husband and she were on the platform together. Indeed, the pres- ence Of the one would have seemed in-~ sufficient without that of theother. She always sat immediately behind her hus- band, and now and then she took advan- tage ‘of @ pause created by the cheers to give him a hint, or ‘utter a gentle remonstrance.”

An Old Structure.

The farmbouse built by General Henry Knox, at Thomaston, Maine,)iu 1794, is now the Thomaston depot of *the Maine Central Railway. It has not been moder- nized but is exactly the same as it was when General Knox died in 1806, with the exception of one small window which was needed and has been set imto one o1 the walls,’ A Bangor paper saye it is one of the oldest buildings in the Uniteu States.
