GREAT BRITAIN AND RUSSIA. Tuere is no longer cause to dread immediate war between Great Britain and Russia. The statement recently made by Mr. Balfour not, in the opinion o shows that Great Britain has he Government, any Having the at a Russia, and having a British man at the head of the Ch nese Customs, and havirg cause for war in that direction. been guarantee] freedom of trade in Chinese ports occupied by Germany secured Wei-Hai-Waiasan oset to tne gees.ion of Northern Chinese territory to Bassia and Ger nany sh: will rest content.

As - e Great of to be dis commercial inierests » gregi a customer of Great Briisin’s Russia,siands sixth among the foreign nations, with a proportion of 5.3 per cent. of the whole. Great Britain is Russia's chief. customer. The latest returns show that Russia export- ed in 1894, 175,303,000 ronbles worth of geods to Great Britain, axainst a total ex- portsution of 668,753,000 roubles worth. The equivalent of the rouble one 15,35 in Canadian currency is 77.2c. Canada’s trade with Russia is insignificant. Her imports from thie country last year were only $15,984, while the exsorts from Canada to Rassia were, ip value, but $4,508. But Australia and other Colonies of Great Britain bave interests in connection with Russia which are too valuable to be thrown away. We may therefore conclude that, both nations having obtained practically that which they sought,the war-like rumors and preparations will come to nothing unless there is a0 unexpected ohange of condition. — << + + eS - — —-—————. NOTES AND COMMENTS. ~ — L’Impariial refers to the actions of the Government anent the Manitoba ecbool question and the Yakon tramway deal, and calls on the electors of West Prince to vote en masse for Mr. Hackett. —Senator Fergueon, who has returned fromthe Wes',reports that Mr. Hackett bas never been more cordial y received then at the meetings recently he!d. For himself he never had a better hearing than atthe meetings he addressed at Weer Prince. He believes the prospects of Mr Hackett’s election to be distinctly improved. hacen alii ibieaies Tretrers Sorp.—Atthe recent sale ot trotters by W.B.

The people are taught the meaning of prayer and work and the church never wants for enpport. On Esster Sunday the Rector asked for $240 to pay cif a small debt on the printing ani the sum of $284 was placed ia the offertory. A congregation run on such Scriptural lines, will, of course live the missionary life.

A Hero in Town.—Captain Surette, of the schooner George S Dotwell, is in town, a guest of Prof, “Arsenault. Captain Surette 's the hero who saved the lives of fifty-two men from the wreck of the S. S. Warwick, of Glasgow. The Warwick wae straaled on Yellow Mar Ledges, Grapd Manan Island, during the course of a hurricane, «n the 3ist of December, 1896. Captain Surette was lyiog in Seal Cove, Grand Manan, at the time The next morning he was potified of the disaster by the keeper of the Southern Heal Light. Though his vessel was light, he never besituted a moment but nade for the wreck. The men in the wrecked steamship bal succeeded in getting into two life-boat+, kept up by air tanks, tweuty-fivein one and twenty-seven in the other. When Captain Surette came alongside, the storm was still raging and everythiug was covered with ice. He therefore had to resort to the expedient of lassong the men axddrawing each through the water to his vessel. In this way he saved the life of every man, though subseqnently many of them had to endure the amputation of frost-bitten limbe. For this notable ser- vice Captain Surette received the special thanks ot the British Government, accom. prnied by a binocular glass worth $1000, the inscription on a gold plate, onthe cave, being as tollows: ‘Presented by the British Government to Z.charie Surette, master of the Amer can scbooner, George 8 Botwel), in acknowledgement of his humanity and ki:dness to the shipsrrecked erew of the British Steamer Warzick of Glasgow, which stranded ou the New Brunewick @oust on the 3! st of Dece mber,1896.” Care tain Surette, in company with his piece, Miss Clariesa Gallant, is leaving tomorrow { Morning f.r Abram’s Village.
