A very noiable public man- ) ifestution of the new spirit is thé new anti- immigration bill introduced in Congress by a Michigan representative, which spec- ifically expects from its working on the ground that they are neighbors, Canadians, which is what is meant by the nbrase, ‘subjects of Canada contiguoue to the Unit- ed biates.? Two , reat causes are at pre’, ent \ orking towards the consolidation of the Anglo-Saxon race. One is the attitude of Great Britain as the cefender of open commerce with the enormous popolation of : China. In this the people of the United States with singular uvanimity regard Great Britain es their champion, However muchthe Americans may emulate the ancient Chinese in building a wall around their gwn country, there is not one of them who wants to be shut out of China, and the more far sighted among them see that the time is very near when the foreign trade interests ot the United Stetea will be manifold what they are today. The elearer their vision on this point the strongly they feel that Great Britain is | just now fi: liting a battle which is their own. The other circumstavuce that must tend to fellowship is the annexation of Hawaii. This might seeta a very emall event. A year does not pass in which Great Britain does not annex more terri- tory than the whole of those islands, and the world hardly notices. What wakes } the event is not the eize nor the commerce | nor the strategic importance of the islands in question but the fact that this annexa- | tion involves a constitutional revolution in the United States, In taking over those is- lands that country must,as one writer puts it,forsake the French theories of race equa!- ity which were the inspiration of the American revolution, and adept the more practical methods towards less cultured which have given Great Britain such an advantage in extending her sway. In short, the United States power must cease to be limited to a homogeneous republic governed throughout by its inhabitants on a footing of absolute equality, and become an empire similar toGreat Britain, wiih foreign dependencies, governed as circum. stances may require, and with foreign responsibilities and problems similar to those which burden the weary titan. The result of this change must be anever de creasing fe!lowship or interests. +are PERSONAL. Rev.

CarnivaL.— Halifax hada big carnival last week at which some two thousand spectators promeoaded, while several) hundred eported themselves ou tha ice in various beautiful and striking costumes. The rink was brilliantly decorated and illuminated, there being eight hundred gas jets used besides the regular light in the rink. The carnival here on Friday night, while perhaps not on £0 large a scale, promises to rival the big show at Halifax. The decorations aad lightings will be on grand scalewnd a Jarge number of skaters will be on the ice in beautiful and original costumes. The special prizes for the Maypole Dye costume and the impereona- tion of the Cake Walk will no doubt bring out tome active competition and will afford enjoyment to those participating and to the spectators besides.

Japan is going to invade the Klonkike. it is stated thatan army of 5,000 able- bodied jaborers is being got together for the gold fields, and in a month it will make a descent on Dawson City.
