The suspicion to which the Guardian gives utterance is, therefore, baseleas. Concerning the Citizens’ League, ve have to say that we shall judge it upon its merits.

Everybody knows that the “for eign” policy of the United States is trotted yut before elections for very “domestic” ason-: INGRESS AND THE PEOPLE SHOULD GO SLOW The New York Herald admits the “the financial disturabance of last week, the lecline in Ameri securities, advance in money rates, outtlow of gold, etc., which culminated ina panic on Friday and menaced a depletion of the gold re- serve in the U.S. Treasury. * * * was “the natural and inevitable consequence of the war scare by the bellicose tone of Congress and the precipitancy of both Houses in authorizing a commission to determine the boundary line Venezuela and British Guiana. As Sena- tor Sherman and other Senators urged on the floor of the Senate, there is no earthly peed of hurry and every reason why Con- The Heralu thea appeals to Congress to declare that an between gress should go slowly.” its object in appointing a commission “is not war, but peece,” and calls on “the country to go slowly and the people to re- flect soberly.” The Herald points out that England buys $500,000,000 worth of United States produce yearly, is “our best customer,” that Great Britain “buys three or four times as much as elie sells us,” and concludes: “A war with England will mean lower prices for all our farm-pro jucts and ageneral prostration of all kinds of business and commerce, to say nothing of other immeasurable ills.” The Herald scores the American jingoes in anmeasur- ed terms and says that it looks as if “every country in Enrope will condemn President Cleveland’s message.” GRAVITY The New York Evening Post says: “What constitutes the gravity of the present crisis is not that we are issuing a commission of inguiry concerning mat ters of deep interests to us, but that we are issuing it as a hostile proceeding, with a threat of war behind it. OF THE CRISIS. What we are going to investigate therefore is not whether there is wrong on the British side but what is the extent of the wrong. We are asking, too, a first-class power to acknowledge our right to trace her fron- tier in defiance of her own clatms, and in territory which does not belong to us. Is there any way out of this but war ? “Io our belief therefore it is thedaty of all patriotic men, and especially of - busi- ness men the work of congratulating the president on his stupendous folly being over, to come down to business and see what is the prospect which they have to face in the probable event of war with Great Britain. Most of those who are ‘hollering’ to-day probably {fancy that ve should all, barring the fight'ng men, find ourselyes uncomfortable in such a war as the one with the South—that is, with an active business, plenty of money, open ports, full theatres, and exciting ‘extras’ There could not be a greater mistake. We are only just recovering from a severe panic, and our currency is still trembling on the edge of achasm. The mere exist- ence of a minatory commiseien during the next six months of a ‘Presidential year’ wilt retard, if not wholly stop the process of recuperation, if it dees not land as on a silver basiv., and will cause heavy with- drawals of foreign capital from our secur- ities “We know very well that there are Jiugoes so affi-cted by Providence that the more you tellthem of the losses that war would occasion the more eager they are for hostilities to begin, their notion Leing that whe you go to war it is base and mean to count the cost. They think, like Leuis XVI, or Napoleon, that there is nothing like fighting for ‘honour,’ and revel in the thought of the misery in which they will plunge other people. But we do not be- lieve the mass of American business men have been converted all of a sudden into crack-brained Parisians. Who, in listen- ing to the jingo yells these fine mornings, can avoid hearing through the mist of years those other jingo yells which started the Parisian crowd on the road ‘to Berli:,’ or asking themselves what war for ‘self- respect and honour’ has ever been begun, coutinued or ended without making its originators and promoters objects of ex- ecration to all subsequent generations.” THE AGONY VOULD SOON BE OVER. The New York Sun says: The Cana- dian papers forsee thatin the event of war between America and Ergland, the Dom- inion might be the first sufferer in the con- flict of arms, but, as one of them puts it, Canada would feel “a certain amount of grim satisfaction” in preparing “for the worst.” ‘The Yankees might be able to make the Canadians smart,” it proceeds, “but uptil the bottomless pit is frozen over they cannot make us yield.” An emergency compelling us to take forcible poscession of Canada would bring about the settlement of the annexation questicn in a way that is so more desired here than there. In the nature of things and inevit- ably, the Dominion will seek and crave admission into the American Union if such an emergency does not occur, and it would be better for both the independent republic and the dependent col- ony that the annexation should be thus peaceful and amicable. The pluck which the Canadians are now displaying in the face of certain snijug~ ation of war between England and the United States should occur makes us ail the more ready to welcome them to be sharers in the glory of the unconquerable Stars and Stripes. They are exhibiting a spirit of manliness which is inconsistent with their present colonial independence, and are humiliated by it.

The very weakness of Canada wou'd save it from the awful physical suffering expec ed by the Toronto newspapers. Its anguish would be sentimental chiefly.

AN ISLANDER HEARD FROM. Campripce, Mass., Dec. 26.— Prof. Silas Marcus MacVane, professor of his- tory in Harvard College, when questioned on the Venezuela question, said that to ask England to enterta.n even for a moment the possibility of transferring English settlers tt» the uncertain vagaries of a Spanish state is more than the United States has any right todo. England, in justice to her colonies, could pursue no other course than she had adopted. He pointed out that Venezuela is quarreling not with England, but with Americans in Guiana—a view commonly overlooked. Furiher, he was of opinion that the Mon- roe doctrine was not concerned in the case.

During the performance by a Jewish dramatic company in Front Street Thea- tre Jast night some one in the audience cried “Fire.” In an instant the scene was one of indescribable confusion. Thirteen dead bodies and twenty persone, some of whom are thought to be fatally injured, were taken out of the building. The Danravea Investigation. New York, Dec. 28. The investigation of the charges pre- ferred by Lord Dunraven commenced yes- terday. Dunraven himeelf was examined. On the witness stand he stated that the charge was not made against any individ- ual member of the Defender syndicate; that from his own observations, and from what he learned from others he was con- vinced. that the load water-line of the American boat had been increased after she had been officially measured. This, he believed, was done by surreptitiously adding ballast. Mr. Glennie was also examined, and went over about the same ground as Dun- raven. It was then announced that Dan- raven’s case was closed. Nat Herreshoff was the [first witness for the defence. He stated that between thirteen and fourteen tons of lead would be required to sink the Defender four inches after she had been measured, and he said it was not possible to add that quantity to the yacht’s ballast and remove it without being seen by many persons. The committee adjourned tili to-day. Notes From tie Capital. Orrawa, Dec. 28, Premier Sir McKenzie Bowell received many letters and telegrams of congrat- ulation yesterday on his 7lst birthday.
