He says to Mr. Tarte: “A moment of reflection will convince you that I have not lost all sentiment of honor, like your detractors.” It is remarked by the St. John Sun that the point well taken. “‘A moments’ reflection will con- vince M:. Tarte that @ politician who de- mands a share of the profits of a three hundred dollar coal contract is no mcre devoid of all sentiment of honor than the man who gets five thousand dollars out of the blackmail levied on a government building contractor. Mr. Petit has reason.’ —Montreal Gazette: Lord Roseberry’s resiguation has made him a greater man than any of the striking sucesses he has scored in life. To-day he stands the central! figure in the country which sways the worli’s destinies, and the eyes of ail Europe and America are fixed on him. For the first time in his life be is really moulding public opision and impressing his view of a perplexing problem upon a great nation. Lord Roseberry has hai many disappointments and humiliations, but be has not suffered them in vain. To stem the tide of a great popalar agitation is, perhaps the greatest achievement any statement can boast. it is easy to stir popular sentiment ; easy to appeal convincing!y from passion to the cold light of reason. 12 comparativeiy it 18 DOL FO ~—The Czarina previous to leaving Bal- mora! Castle for France, reeeived a delega- tion of women who ca! led upon her to ask for her support for the suffering Armen lans. The audience, however, was granted en the condition that nothing should tbe said regarding it until the Czarina left England. The delegation, it now appears, urged the Czarina to do something to stay the hand of the Sultan, and she replied that s0 far she had interfered but little in politics, although she was ready to do any- thing in her power to help bring sbout a crusade against the existing circums:ances at Constantineple, adding : “A more woman'y or Cliristian action than helping to alleviate the suffering of the oor Armenians i+ hardly conceivable. estassired (f my heartfelt interest in the caure you have at beart.” —The Victoria Warder is sympathetic bat hopeful towards Mr Joseph Martin. It saye:—“Poor Joe! He began the school agitation; not for pr neiple, but for persona! advancement. He played it for Grit purp des. Heeees himeaelf the despised and rej-cted of the very men whom be has placed in offce. He sees an iniquitous system of separate schools about to be foisted on Manitoba by Greenway and Sifton. He sees Sifton become min ster of the Interior. He realizes that Greenway has found solace for hia troubles. He sees Prendergast about to become a judge. And Joe is out in the cold. But if he baves himself he will surely be taken in Out of the wet. The whole affair 4 disgrace toa free people.” This last sentiment should be echoed and re-echoed all over Canada. is —Moutreal Gazette: Tie Toronto Young Liberal Club has a ‘opted a resolution to the effect that ail per-ons holding cffiice under the Crown ehould abstain from act.ve participat on in political cont t:. The principie thus enunciated is a curious one 10 be sent forth with a Liberal dir ement It is to be preten led that a Inau's interest in the good governm: nt of his country ceases when he is deemed a en- proper person to serve his country in a responsible position and is appointed thereto? The idea is ridiculous. It may he advieable for a public employe, if he desires to eep his place, to refain from active participation in a political conflict. He may not desire to provoke a Blair to wrath. But that is @ matter of expendiency or of cowardice. The Toronto Young Liberals seek to make euch a conrse a mat- ter of principle. They coofcund princi,Je with temporary political expediency. They need to learm that a man’« occupation is no jit bar to bis exercise of the full rights of citizenship. —We beg to remind the Guardian that Tue Examiner did not attempt last spring todeal with the question of Goveruoment ownershipot the telegravh lines of Cana ia, or of the line connecting the Mainland with the Provinae of Prince Edward Island.

Lash —J ustice. J. M.Co wtney—Finance. James Johnson ~—Cnstoms. L. Vankoughnet—Indian affairs. ©. E. Panet—Militia. Wm. Buckingham—!I J. L. MeDougal!! - Auditor General. In addittion to which Mr. Trudeau, the depnty of the Minister of Public Works iterior. (which then included Railways and Canals) was wel! known to be of liberal symputhies. These, as will be seen, constitute all the most important deputyships. But only ove of them, Mr. Buckingham, who was appointed but a few days before the change of government, was disturbed. He was asked to take another office of almuxt equal dignity and salary, but preferred to Of the others, Courtney, Panet resign. and McDougal! remain till thisday. Mr. Lash resinged in 1882 to take a better position in Torovto. Mr. Johnson was superannuated at his own request in 1892 at the ripe age of 76, and Vankoughnet rather against his will in 1893, buat for reasons wholly outside of polities. Mr Trudeau, who remains! a deputy of the Minister of Railways till 1893, was then superannuated at his own request, having held office since 1859. Thatis how the late conservative government treated the deputy ministers which they found in office installed by the preceeding govern- ment. —An Ottawa correspondent reports that so far, though diligent enquiry has been made, no member of the Government has openly espoused the campaign which the Toronto Giobe has inaugurated against the deputy Ministers. Some of the Liberals think it was a mistake for the party organ to show its hand at this stage of the game, but there are rnany who do not hesitate to complain thatthe Government has _ been slow in making openings for friends. in the House the pretence was made that there is no great demand among the Liber- als for appointmeats, and that they are in- its spired by no other thought than a desire for the general welfare. But the Liberai paper in Ottawa gives the lietothat. To- night the Free Press declares that even at this date, “‘office-seekers are still swarm- ing abont the Ministers of State, and thatthe lives of members of Parliament are made a misery by the horde of appli- cants who seem io think that places can be found or made forthem.” This taken as an explanation of the great anxiety of a section of the party, which deplores the inaction of the Government in this respect asa sign of weakness, to make aclean sweep. The fact is that it requires all the moral strength of the Government to resist the pressure that is being brought upon it. With office- seekers swarming srouod the Ministers of State and making the lives of members of Parliament a misery, it 18 no easy matter for the Government to hold out against the force bv which it is besieged. Indeed, so far ithas offered very little resistance, ‘fespite the fact that the party, or a larger part of it, contends that the Ministers having obtained places for themselves, are ungrateful to those who put them where they are. is paneetlinaginen NEWS NOTES, The engagement of Coningsby Disraeli, nephew of the late Lord Beaconsfield, to a Portuguese lady of immense wealth, is announced. The deer-stalking season in Scotland haz been unusually euccessful. The Bradley-Martin party of thirteen rifles laet week secured forty-nine stags, The extent to which the silver question ig agitating the great Republic is well illustrated by the statement that a Ken- tucky hen has laid an egg with the figures 16 to 2 on it. The Canadian Government has given ful assurance to their friends in Lopdon ut their intention to make strenuous ellurts to pecpie the vacant Jands of the great Northwest. The Icelandic farmers settled in Dakota have sent a delegate to Manitoba to ex- amine the prospects with a view to remov- ing to thiscountry. They cannot make a living ia Dakota. The Unterhaus of the Austrian Reichs— rath has passed a resolution favoring the Government making overtures to the powers for the formation of an international court ot arbitration. There is some prospect of a revival in gold mining operations in the old mines at Mount Uniacke, N. 8., during the coming winter. Thirty-one years ago the first die- covery of gold was made in this region. The Northwest government has resolyed not to translate its ordinances into the French language. The reason given is that the federal government does not allow sufficient money for the translation. Advices from Winnipeg state that Father Richot, one of the pioneer priests of Mani- toba, bas been elevated by the Pope to the rank of Prothothany Apostolic, which is the highest digaitary after the bishops. The annual report of the Boston and Marine Railway shows a eurplus of net income over fixed charges of $1,378,102 and after payment of dividends on pre- ferred and common stock a balance of $71,467. J. A. Balcom, collector of taxes for the parish of Musquash, St. John county, has to the States. Officials are trying to find out the amount of his short- age, which is thought to be up in the thonsands. The latest transaction in real estate in New York city is the sale of a Jot of land | six inches long and six inches wide for $100, which is not quite $+ a square inch. It occupies considerably more spice than that in the New York newspapers, The New York Recorder has ceased pu_)- ae lication, after the owners had spent a mil- lion dollars in five years to find out tha there was no field for their enterprise. Their returns in experience hardly com- pensated them for their outlay in cash. It is frequently thus in newspaper ventures. The Canadian emigrants in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil, are reported to be much dissatisfied with the situation as they find it at their destination. ‘Those members of the party who abandoned their baggage and came ashore at Montreal are likely to find that they got off most cheaply. Secretary Malet-Provost of the Vene- zuelan boundary commission, bas author- ized the following: “The statement that the commission has come to a decision sustaining the claims of Venezuela in the boundary dispute between that country and Great Britain is entirely without foundation.” Advices from Guthrie, 0. T., are to the effect that Charles Hadworth and Henry Welsch were executed at Wowaka, in the Seminole nation, for murder on Sunday. This is the first Sunday execution known. Paper targets were pinned over the men’s hearts, and were fired at simultaneously by Indian police. Sir William Harcourt emphatically denies the rumor that he intends to. retire from public life and resign the leadership of the Liberal party in the house of com- mons. Itis evident that he expects. to take Lord Rosebery’s place as the leader of the party, and certainly his age and ex perience give him the best claim to it. The Khalifa is said to be attemptirg to form a league of the Mahometan states of Northern Africa for the purpose of repel- ling the British advance in the Soudan. The story is not improbable, but there .s no probability of the Khalifa being suc- ceasfal in such an attempt. The fact is universally recognized that his power is on the wane, so that instead of obtaining new allies he is likely to lose those he has had. The exesutive committee of the Nation- al Liberal Federation bas unanimously passed a resolntion of profound regret that the Earl of Rovebery felt it necessary to resign the leadership of the party. The resolution acknowledges Lord Rosebery’s signal services as a leader under circum- stances of unusual difficulty, and recog- nizes that his action in resigning is dic tated by an earnest desire to promote unity, The French are already finding Mada- gascar a troublesome possession. The natives have taken to killing off the white population and raising Cain generally. Captain Lothaire, who was in the service of the Belgian Government in Africa, is to be sent to the island, and if he applies the methods he learnt on the Congo, there will be a lively time. It wil] be a case of diamond cut diamond, and the probability is that if it comes to a question of slaugh- ter, Captain Lothaire will come out ahead. The Italian Government is addressing a forcible remonstrance to the Sultan on account of the maltreatment of an Italian subject by Turkish troops. If the Turks would only beat to death a Russian, or a German, or an Englishman, there would be some chance of them getting what they really deserve. Ifonce a British subject were harmed, Englishmen all the world over would be as one in desiring that the matter should be attended to, whatever the rest of Europe might think about it. The troubles of the Manchester ship canal are taking anew phase. The rai!- ways have heretofore mere or es ignored its existence in making their freight rates. Now, it is said, they are about to institute a rate war against it The effect on the finances of the company is likely to be unpleasant, but good will come to the city and its trade in the pro- A rate war by the railways means cheaper transportation and signifies that the ditch- ia doing at least some of the work expected from it. cese, Prince Bismarck has been studying the Scriptures. In a letter toacitizeu of Dundee he justifies his hostility to the Cretans by quoting St. Paul, who re lied for his unfavorable estimate of the island- ers On some unknown authorities. ‘All Cretans are liars,” writes Prince Bismarck with evident satisfaction. What this has to do with the merits of Turkish admin- istration in Crete does not appear. St. Paul would probably have said some strong things about tbe Turks if he had pot been too early to make their acquaint- ance. Some time ago it was reported tha Lake Nepigon, the largest trout lake on the continent, had been leased to an American syndicate by the provincial government. Thedes] was not finally closed as the privy council was deliberat- ing on the question whether the dominion or provincia! government had control ot such waters. The decision handed out a tew days ago relegated control of the in- land lakes to the provincial government. Mr. Dymet, M. P., for Algona, is urging atrong objections to the leasing of the lake to Americans. Mr. Taillon has writtena letter declar- ing that, as leader of the Conservative O p- position at Quebec, he knew nothing of Mr. Tarte’s receipt of $5,000 from Mr. Pacaud, nor of the use Mr. Tarte may have made of the money. If Mr. Taillon’s word needed any support in such a matter it would be found in Mr. Tarte’s oath. Before Judge Desnoyers on Friday Mr. Tarte was asked, and replied to the follow- ing question :-— Question—-“Did you give Mr. Taillon to understand that if no opposition was of- fered to the vote of $140.000 you would get funds for the election ?” Answer by Mr. Tarte.—‘‘No; I would not dare to make such @ proposition to Hon. Mr. Taillon.’’ Mr. Taillon, it is plain, was not in the ‘business is business” line. A “Congress of Mothers” is to meet at Washington in February, but it is not expected that its operations willin any way interfere with the other Congress that from time to time manages, or misman- ager, Uncle Sam’s offairs. It is generally accepted as a truiem that “ the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world,” and it is not intended that a reform in that direc- tion shall be made. The mothers andthe Congress established by the constitution will continue to have concurrent jurisdic- tion. «Many useful things, however, might be accomplished by the mothers if they proceed with care and prudence. It has been well pointed out that “ the wis- dom of the head as well as the wisdom of the heart needs practical application io the average American home, where the mother is too often rather the servant of her children, or at least the ministrant to their wishes, instead of their director and guide and the head of her own reali and kingdom.” Neuralgia is the prayer of the nerves for pure blood.

That had been England’s tradition- al policy, he said, and any departure from which would meet with active resistance by the powers, At the same time, abso- lute inaction was more dangerous to the peace of Europe than would be united in- terference by the powers to compel Tur- kish reform. England’s present policy, the chancel'or affirmed, was to assure u concert of the powers to insist upon re- form. He asserted most emphatically that the government did not desire to act alone or to obtain any special advantage for England. -—_- A Sap Faranivy —The residence st Upper Gagetown, N.
