Then gradually evidence | that the Czar's diplomats, | being responsible for surprised and cha- griped at the action, until the most chronic believers in Muscovite duplicity | did not doubt the fact, and now the flood gates of wrath have been opened on all} sides on the young prince.

The friendliest hypcthe- | sis is that he has been a weak instrument lu | the hands of Karavelof, and has yielded to the plot because threatened with dethrone- ment. It lies in no man’s mouth to say | whether peace or war will be the issue—-not the Sultan, nor the Czar, nor Kalnoky, nor | even Bismarck could tell. The complica- | tion ia so intricate, sc vast and so many- sided that no single ruler or statesman and no one country can dominate it. The)! peace of Europe is literally at the mercy of | chance happenings, in which a d« zen Mace- | donian brigands, a handful of Servian stu- | dents or a drunken sergeant of Baz ruks | may play as potential a part asa congress | of nations. But this nauch is true, that day by day during the past week the opti- mists have been losing heart, and the clouds have heen growing blacker. There | is, first of all, imminent likelihood {| of collision between Turks and Bual-} garians on the Roumelian accumulated 80 far from - ” l, were i | i borders— | about which extreme nervousness exists, and [he report of which is expected hourly. Next there is a probability of an uprising of slaves in Macedonia excited as they are by the events across the frontier. Then! there is the menace of a movement by the | Servians on one side and by the Greeks on | the other. Each is wild with jealousy of | Bulgaria and distracted with savage terri- | torial lust which the seent of Ottoman blood always engenders. Lastly loom up| the gigantic threatening forms of Russia | and Austria. Each is loth to enter into | war; each is indignant at the adventurer | who stirred up the trouble and yet each is| bound by the very law of its existence to | march into the field at once fighting begins. | Never was a graver problem more danger- | ously involved—never was prephecy more nearly impossible. Meantime the papers of the various capitals are filled with canards, bloody rumors and wild speculations. The Paris press especially has run riot with all sorts of bold inventions of reports of battles, moblizations and wholesale arma- ments. If the tenth part of the things re- | ported from Bulgaria are true, the Servians have resolved to have a fight, even if they have to shoot each other and there are constant stories of plots and risings in Macedonia. °* se@ -—- British Politics. | The Tribune's Londen exble says: Cham- berlain’s speech on Thursday is likely to damage his authority with his party. After preaching union and having welcomed Gladstone’s manifesto, he turns around and declares that unless his three favorite nos- trums are taken vp he will not join any Liberal Government. Thia is regarded as serious tactical blunder before the enemy, and has created great disgust even among Chamberlain’s frends. That a strong politician should presume to dictate terms in this fashion and so openly bid for Glad- stone's shoes is quite contrary to all Euglish political traditions. fhe New York Times’ special accounts for Chamberlain’s course as follows; ** It erally felt that this bold stand was dictated by the conviction that the next p@rliameat will bea short, stormy and in- conclusive thing. That he will gain mere | by being ont of than in a ministry doomed | to fali from internecine strife. That this! will use up Mr. Gladstone and that then he| will be free to go to his constituencies as a! candidate for the Radical premiership against both Tvriesand Whigs. His slight- ing references to Mr. Gladstone and Lord} Hartington and his open disavowal of Mr | Goschen, coupled with the Radical decision to oppose the latier in Edinburgh points to} this conclusion. ‘The Tories are unable to| get much hope out of the fight, as it stands becanse the rivalry seems likely to excite; the Liberals to their utmost in attendance at the polls. Later on, though especia!ly if Lord Hartington retorta with like spirit, things may develop into a large Whig defection. is g + a « Nova Scotia's New Judge. J. Norman Ritchie belongs to a famous family of lawyers and judges. His father, the late Thomas Ritchte, after serving bis native county, Annapolis, in the legislature for many years, was appointed Judge of the inferior court of Nove Scotia for the west- ern counties. The father was married twice, first toa sister of the laie Hon. J. W. Johnston, and second to a Miss Bond, of Yarmouth. Three of the sone becsme Judges—Sir William Johnston Ritchie is the Chief Justice of Canada, Hon. J. W. Ritchie was for many years Judge of Equity in Nova Scotia and now J. Norman is also made judge. hic incident | probabiy cannot be paraleiled in this or any other country. Educated at King’s C. ilege under the late Dr. Me.

Ritchie, and was admitted to the bar in 1857, whe» he became a partner with his brother,and on the senior partner's appointment to the hench, became head of the firm of J. N. & T. Ritchie. The new judge has long been regarded as one of the ablest lawyers at the Halifax bar; and has been engaged in most, if not all, the important commercial cases that has been before the Supreme Court for many years. He isa man of wealth and great integrity. For years he has been Solicitor and Director of the Merchants’ Bank of Halifax. He has been a Queen's! Counsel and Recorder of the city for many | years. Connected with the Church of England, he has taken an active part in the proceedinga of the Provincial Synod, and exbibited a warm interest in the prosp@rity of King’s College, Windsor, his alma mater.

Seceding From the Parnellites Lonpon, Sept 29. Mr. O'Conner Power and Mr. O'Donnell have seceded from the Parnellites, and they now say that Parnellism has reduced the popular organization both in Ireland and America, by the schemes for obtaining money. It has sapped the foundation of self-government by abusing nominees, and fostered. deceptive confidence, by claim- ing triumph for adoption by Parliament of every worthless Irish measure.

Six,—Your issue of yesterday has a letter over the signature of ‘ Prof. Thaw,” in which the writer tries to injure the reputa- tion of some of the ‘* beat musical talent in this city.”’ During the last twenty years but little, if any, improvement has been made in the ‘divine art.” Those who have hitherto followed the art of teaching have had but little tact, and less ability, or some of their numerous pupils would cer- tainly have exhibited those evidences of proficiency which the ability or system of the teacher warranted. Mr. Frieze, the gentleman especially against whom the venom of the writer is directed, has, during his short sojourn here, won the confidence of all persons of musical taste by the introduction of a system of teaching which substitutes cadence, modu- lation and harmony for ‘‘noise and dis- eord.” Mr. Frieze’s pupils must be thank- ful that they have received instructions from one who has done eo much towards improving and elevating the musical talent of this community. His efforts in this direction have been appreciated by ail classes, and it will require more than the venomous letter of your correspondenc to injure his reputation. In regard to the performance of Mr. Tanton, I may be permitted to say that it was not only creditable to that gentleman, but was particularly marked for ‘‘gentle- ness of touch.”? The artistic execution of the very difficult pieces selected has already tended to sustain his rising reputation as a performer on the pianoforte. Just in pro- portion as the harmony, and “‘light and shade” of the works of the great composers are developed by the genius of the player, so will the popularity of this brilliant in- strument increase in our public concerts. The development of talent, as illustrated by the rendition of a piece cf vocal or in- strumental music, in such a manner as will be pleasing to the feelings of an enlighten- ed audience, is the best guarantee of the genius or ability of the performer. The ‘‘criticism,” if it may *be so called, of the writer in yesterday's ExaMINeER, is not only in bad taste, but is incorrect. Yours, ete., JUSTICE. cc Ah) A Praiseworthy Action. Sin,—On Thursday afternoon a large tree fell acroas the track near Port Hill Station A Mr Trowsdale first noticed the obstruc- tion and, with commendable dispatch, flagged the train theu approaching from the West, which was stopped a few feet from the fallen monster, The passengers, on Hocking ont, found Mr, Trowsdale hard at work with one of the train hands, chopping away at the obstruction. The writer, as one of the tex- payers, is of opinion that the action of such men as Mr. Trowdalo should be followed by some mark of approbation at the hands of the Railway Department. PASSENGER.
