A. uurcurzson, A U f li .i *inn i .I l 'l`he New York papers now to hand show that there wasuo deliberate dis- couricsy to the British tl_|g‘ in the inci- .lt-nt which occurred at the centennial celebration in \\'ashin;rtona few days n._<_r,c~,-xml referred to at thattime in our des- patchcs. ltwas intended by the com- mittee in cliargelhnt only thc colors of the l`uited States should have a place in thc House of llepresentatives on the oc- casion referred to. But the local supply of national flags gave; out and an order was made on Philadelphia and New York for more. Among those sent from the navy yards at those places were the flags of all nations. The marines who were doing the work of decoration gave the British ling the place of honor over the Qggakers thin Other national rings been shown there except in a single in- stance-iu 1514 when the Capitol w'z~_\ taken an-fl burn.-d by l§ritisl‘.troop.~. Pei"- haps it was this incident, as wcll as the 9 _; w`-.-re also placed about the Willl- f\\¢\`€l' 5 f' before had other than United States Flags. lconspil,-nous place assigned to the Qu~:cn`s flag; that led Speaker lleudersou to order the British ensign to bc covered by l`.

On the part of the O,ipJ_.ition in .\'cw- foundland it is argued that the rv.-cent triumph of the Bond tiovernment there s a bad thin: for the Islandi The argu- ment in substance is this: That Mr. Reid, who now growing old and is not in good health. was entitled to receive a charter to place his very large business in ‘ the hands of a company; that had he been ,permitted todo so he would hive ex- , mended vastisums in improving his pro- perty, in developing his mineral and lumber properties, in the erection of smelters, pulp mills, hotels, etc., t’..u~: ,giving very large cuiploymc-nt to labor. md, givingaprogressivc impetus to the :ntira Island. Moreover it is contended thatthc object of the Bouri party is to practically compel Mr. Reid to sl rro-nder his contract, in which case the Province `would be in a bankrupt cond ition. In common with many Canadian nenspapels Tm: Gtulnpnxzv has for various reasons , sympathised with the Bond Government, but there are always poims to be con- sidered on both sides in matters of that sort. l A correspondent of the Manchester Guardian gives au interesting sketch of Hon. Mr. Tarte at home, from which the following is an extract: “I am but a vieux habitant,” he said the other day in a speech I have described “and my house is open to you all.” It is a ` pretty little gabled villa, with verandah and staircase, such as the French hexe love to build and to adorn with pretty tri- vialties of wooden ornamentation. The same love ofprctty niceties is shown with- in. The room into which I was shown was gay with bright colors, and had that piquant prettiness which the Gaul loves in his exteriors. After a few moments Mr. Tarte came in, courteous, friendly, imple. I have already described him, s with beard, hair. and brows of a thick curly iron grey, speaking rapidly with S twinkling eyes and lively gestures, a man plainly with the salt of humor in him, and O herefore not easy to beat. He speaks English with a strong French accent and 8. C certain charming orginality, but quite Jrrectly and fluently. Death of a Murderer. _- m THB CREATBST NATION The New York Tribune, whose articles ,are usually ole high class, proclaims to its readers that the United States, with a population of 76 millions is the greatest I nation in the world. The claim is mainly based on the number of civilized inhabit- ants. It is admitted that the British, Russian and Chinese Empires are more populous than the Republic, but it is claimed that only 5 per cent of the llussian people can read and write. “China is scarcely superior lo Russia and is That intel|ectu:tily," the Tribune says, inferior to Russia industrially. india is unrc pmulous than Russia, and more highly civilized, the Tribune also admits. But when comparison is made between the l_'nitcdAStates and Great Britain, only the British Islands, or at most the British Islands, Australia and Canada are includ- ed. Any comparison between two powers as to national greatness based upon such a partial and inadequate view of the facts is simply absurd. In area the Britisl. Empire is more than three times as great as the United States and its possessions; in population nearly tive times as great;in shipping and commerce vastly greater, in naval power at least four times as great, and in wealth far the greater., Sur-:ly these are elements that cannbt be allo- ther overlooked in an estimate cf itional greatness. There :nc still other elements of nation- al greatness`which ought not to be omit- tcd in any fair comparison. The rclati\e \ weight of the British Empire and the l`nited States in the alfairs of the great world; what the two nations have done to uplift and civilise Asia., Africa. and the islands of the sea; their relative creations in literature and art; the relative perfec- tion of their governmental and judicial systems, etc., in all of which the ad- vantage must rest with the older nation It is lobe observed that among the 76. millions of so called “civilized” people in the I'nitcd States nearly 10 miliions are colored. and these, from no fault of their own. cannot compare very favorably in intelligence with the population of Can- ada or .-lustralia. And the negroes are being lynched in such numbers annually i as nllbrds a sad commentary upon the moral greatness of the great Republic. l ,.______ llc-ss Urolccr ha'/ing tal;gn up his 1-ggi- dcncc at Heat House, `\Vz'u1tage, in Berk- shire, hars been duly waited upon by the income tax collector for $5,000, on an esti- mated income of $100,001) ayenr. And he can only get clear of paying thig by setting forth in a comprehensive sworn statement that his total income for the year is less than the above estimate. Mr. Crokcr is more likely to pay up than to make a sworn disclosure, item by item of his different receipts and the sources from which they are derived.
