A correspondent of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, writes from Batilefor€:—‘‘We have grown tired admiring the beautifal site of this place, which, except fora few burned hous:s on tho south side of Battle River, shows few signs of a seige which lasted two menths. The main town is located on a high and almost level plateau between the Bittle and North Saskatchewan, many miles long, more than a mile broad and a perfect camping ground for thousands where we have hundreds, wero it not that water has to be brought from ono cr ithe other of the rivers, and is distant half a mile or more either way. In fact, the water supply was one of Major ‘Morris’ chief troubles. He had to send a large patty and a picce of artillery to get it, and the Indians who had possession of the settlement across the river would pop away in most exasperating fashion. The prom- inent building in South Saskatchewan, ‘formerly knorn as Government house, is now called Fort Otter, and one company of | the Queen’s Own is camped there, the rest of the forces being on the plateau, The | Battle is crossed by a bridge, which is taken up every winter lest it be destroyed by ica, avd has been put down since Ov:ter’s arrival. From the ssettlement—probably fifty scattered houses—and from the palisaded police barracks the views up and down the two valleys is beautiful now ; the foliage and springing grass, the 'gracefully-rounded hills and the swollen ‘and swiftly flowing Saskatchewan forming a picture well worth observing. But one can ‘easily believe that in winter the place is {bleak and storm-swept, and even the en- | thusiastic among the inhabitants don’t pre- | ‘tend that cold weather is tardy in coming. jor quick in going. ‘scenery are the camps of the settlers who have come to the town for protection, and | As interesting as the | VOL. 1—NO. 2 Liberal Government. Mr. Gladstone, court cflicials admit, was neverin harmony with the Qneen on any subject, end Her Me jesiy and the Premier disagreed bitterly in all their discussions about England’s foreign affairs. Mr. (i'adstune, it #s said, rarely consulted the Queen or info: med her of the designs of his Governmeut. In well- informed circles it is thought the Queen’s entourege strongly favors a renewal of the Soudan campaign, the retention of Egypt, the settlement of the Anglo-Russian dispute on the basis of the Granville-Giers azree- ment, a renewal of the alliance with Germany, an entente with Turkey, and no special cultivation of the entente with France. A policy embracing all these principles has all along been approved by all permanent officials in the Foreign Office, amongst whom Mr. Gladstone’s regime had become intcnsely disliked. Mr. Gladstone’s intimation of a determination to retire from publie life has for the present ut-erly disorganized Liberal arrangements for the electoral sirrggle, Desperate effirts have been made to secure from him a nuniber of engagements to make campaign speeches. The only engagement admitted by Mr. Gladstone is one for Midlothian. Liberal election agent’ generally report great difii- culty in obtaining candidates to contest seats on the Liberal platform ; Radical can- didates are, however, plentiful. The Bir- mirngham Liberal caucus has edopted in its programme for the cauipaign the proposals formulated by the recent pirliamentary conference. These call for the reformation of the House of Lords by the exclusicn of Bishops from s2sts, and by specific limita- tions of the power ef the peers to delay or prevent necersary legislation. ttn ———- a | The Future of Great Britain. (“Chips” in the Montreal Gazette.) jthat of tho half-breeds, — who pretend to! We doubt if there is an intelligent person jhave been forcibly detained by Pound- jn the civilized world whose thoughts have |maker. They live in canvas, tattered and »ot been largely of England during the |torn, the breeds arranging their tents in’ resent week, for in the last six days a re- corral shape, while the settlers (breeds | among them too, but of tke English or ‘Scotch variety) form camp it regular civi- | lized order. Hearty and happy-looking, the 'den‘zens do not seem to appreciate that their \living, for a year at least, is decidely pre- carious. Battleford residents also appear _in good case, though, as I said before, they jare ina bad humor. When they look at poor Frank Swmart’s pretty house, now tenantless, and at the graves on the high- est points of the plateau, they feel that a little vengeance, of the fiercest sort, against the causes of the sorrow would be exceed- ingly pleasing. Unless] am much mis- taken there will be more than ove Indian ‘accidentally shot,” and if Big Mountain, 'who is kvown to have shot Smart, is caught ‘at any time outside the picket lines, he will have short shrift. Unlike Prince Albert, Battleford was besieged, and those within it constantly is more or less danger of death or being hurt. Naturally strong, the place could not have been cap- tured easily, but offensive measures were not possible. Mejor Morris had forty-four police, forty-seven Battleford rifles and 100 home guards. Among the latter were many | half-breeds and French residents, who were either cowardly or in their hearts sym- | pathised with the Indians, whom they re- | garded as allies of Riel. The latter was here last winter and held several meetings at which he propounded his doctrines. In the police barravksand the vicinage were the women and children, who would almost undoubtedly have been massacred had Morris teken any considerable portion of ‘his force against the enemy.” ne + Great Britain. THE POLITICAL SITUATION — SALISBURY’S PLAN’S— THE QUEEN AND GLADSTONE. The Queen, itis said, is delighted over Gladstone’s downfall. ‘The Marquis of | Salisbury, everybody begins to see, lacks \self-confidence. It is undersicod he will refrain from forming a cabinet until after he has held conferences with ail the Con- servative leaders. The impression prevails {that the Parnelites will not have so much influence with the new Government as they expected. The Conservative party lis largely controlled by the prevalent papinics of the Tory clubs; all favor the ' theory advocated by Karl Spencer, that ‘here jis an absolute necessity for the continuance ‘of the coercion policy in Ireland. On this point the Tories and the majority of the Liberals agiee and on it they may com- bine agairst the Radicals and Parnellites. If they do the Home Rulers wi. be in such a pitiable minority that their votes will count for nothing in Parliament. It is not believed that Lord Salisbury wil seek as- sistance from any of the Gladstone Minis- ters in forming his policy towards Ireland. His plan will be to split the Liberal party completely by proposing a measure of ‘coercion based on Spencer’s reports, a measure the same as Hartington and the majority of the Gladstone Cabinet insisted on ccntinuing. Such a line of policy would be almost certain to lead to at least a tem- porary coalition between the moderate Lib- -erals and the Tories against the Radicals and Parrellites, and give the new Govern- ment a tremendous majority. Sir S. Northcote has already been in ccnsultation with the Irish executive officiala concerning the real state of affairs in Ireland, and it is understood nearly every one of these men has stated that no English Government could afford to be responsible for the gov- ernment of Ireland during next winter without a continuance of the Crimes Act. Lord Randolph Churehill is probably the only one of the men likely to forma Con- servative Cabinet who is at all likely to ad- vocate the abandonment of coercior. Tele- ,volution has begun to translate itself out of thought and conyiction into the outward ‘form of decision and action. Several years ‘ago we spent some months among tie mechanics and tenant-farmers of Fngland, ‘questioning them and conversing with them jconcerning social, religious and political | matters to the end that we might asceriain | precisely what they thought and how they ifelt on these and kindred subjects. We |then saw that the drift of English and political movement was setting rapidly toward manhood suffrage and that we were examining and sounding the very sources of future political power in England in so doing. The result of our investiga- tion was both a revelation and and a sur- prise to us and led us to the conclusion which, we fancy, would not even now be accepted as correct by the majority of people interested in the evolution of the Anglo-Saxon race. Mr. Gladstone was. at that time engaged in his great effort to oust Disraeli from power, and the whole country was on fire with political fervor, and the circumstances were most fortunate for the success of my enquiry, for everybody, high and low, rich and poor, was ready to talk and talk radically in respect to how they felt on politica! matters, and tell what they thought would beand ought to be. We felt, therefore, that at the close of our canvass we had fingered our way down to the yery roots of popular feeling, and had located the very germs whence the future political growths would spring. The objective peiuts against which this establishment of the Church ; (2) the-aboli- tion of the House of Lords or its radical reconstruction into a more representative body, and (3) the popularization of the great landed estates. These three results are what the new party—the party which Chamberlain or some ove of his like views will lead when Gladstene is gone—propose to effect. That they expect to do this is certain. That they expect to do it without the help, nay, inspite of the opposition of the old Whig element is equally plain. The only points for them to decide are when they shall do it and how they shall do it. The doing of it, in their minds, is settled. Chamberlain, Churchill, Parnell, these are the future leaders in English po.ities, Suppose they should coalesce! Suppose they should strike hands! It is impossible! By no means, at least, as it seems to us. Or suppose Chamberlain, leading the Eng- lish Liberals and Radicais, should unite with the great Irish organizer, might not the combination be strong enough to rule England? Figure it out and see for your- self, Why shouldn’t they? Parnell wants local government for Ireland. Why should not the English Liberals and Radicals grant it to him? The latter want church dis- establishment, reconstruction of the House of Lords, popularization of the great land estates, cutting down of wasteful and extra- vagant Royal grants and perquisites,— verily, what is there in all these varied wants that forbids a uniou between the English and Irish party! And if they should join, what then? ——_—_ai ><> <a ‘An ounce of prevention worth a pound of eure” isan old adage but true. In view of pretictions that this country is liable to be visited by more than an ordinary amount of contagious disease this year, it behoves all to inquire about and practice every sanitary measure,especially cleanliness, which as a pre- ventive, offers some one means of escape at least: and in this how important the article of Soap as to quality fit for use; certainly all in- ferior grades made so by foreign substances and adulterations of a questionable charactar, should be rejecte?, that thcre msy be no taint left on the person or clothes which might in any way invite the germs of these various dis- eases.
