SPREAD OF THE EMPIRE.

ixthe course of a recent address to his itvente at West Birmingham, Bight Hon. Joseph Chamberlain ee with the principal public

OL WS { the dealt at length the first

questions of the day. Among

mantiers dealt with was tixe Empire, and Chamberlain said : “i have approved and supported the extension of the Empire because I Selieved it was the evident mission of this country as mistress of the seas. and because I believed that it was within the genius and capacity of her people. I know @elienough that a policy of this kind eutaile sacrificese The nation that would he great must pay the cos!; but, ladies and geotiemen, that cost in men andin treasure f.ae to be paid, if we are to continue in the pesition which our ancestors acquired {for me. The cost of mea, indeed weal! most deeply regret, although there can te ro etter fate for any man than to die for the honor of bis country. The cost in treasure

upon this subject Mr.

—why, great as is our expend- ature upon our military ard neval tecerves, it is small in’ proportion ~ oar wealth in comparison

with, that of any other Continental na- tion, and smaller still in proportion to the burden which our ancestors readily Gore when they laid the foundations of “ar Imperial Dominion. Theee sacrifices have not been in vain. To-day over a great portien of the earth, the British apeech, British Jaw and British civiliza tica have been firmly planted. We have sustained the infancy and protected the

growth of British rations across the «ca. We have retained their affection,

wotil now it will be in the time to come their pride to support the Mother Land ia bearing the burdens of the Empire, and to staod shoulder to shoulder with usin supoort of our rights and liberties. I rejuice tothink that at not'me during the giorious reigo of the Queen was the priaciple of the unity of the Empire more preseut to the minds of al! her subjects, aod that the celebrations which so recently pooclaimed the Jove and reverence of ber people for their raler also emphasized the tact that the Britieh Monarchy symya- thiees apd personifies the es-ential qameness of the British race, and the spicitof that Imperial patriotism whore motte it is‘ Each for all and ail for each.”

Mr then took up the saportant matter of national detences, “gxaking atrome length. He showed the mecersity there was for bringing up the defensive resources of the army avd navy te the increasing needs of the extending Jowiaion, He poin‘ed out that during the fast two sessions cf parliament they had deait in more thau one bill with the con lition of the navy aod that this arm ef the @ervice was never io 4% strong a condition 48 itis atpresent. It was proposed to deal

with the army at the next session. Ip thie convertion he said:

Chamberlain

“ We have no ides of rivalling in the British Army the enormous hosts that are treught together und:r Continental torces, ad we have 00 intention whatever in this Qountry corr the system by which Cirat army is raised, orof imitating the welicy of vonacr ption or compulsion which no docht is necessary in the case of such gigantic hosts.
