NOT IN HER STANDING ARMY, BUT IN HER CHILDREN'S LOYALTY. The Right Hon. Edward Clark, Q. C., Soleitor-General, made a stirring speech in London, G. B., a few days ago. to the mad rivalry of the continental nations in increasing their arms and armaments, he said thatthe standing armies of Europe were a scandal and disgrace to civilization aud a perpetual menace to the peace of the world. ‘They were an intolerable burden to the toiling people; and at the present time, when diplomatic relations were strain- ed, they were exciting thenations of Europe, and their constant augmentation portended in early disturbance of peace. Her majesty’s Government, he said, were en- deavoring to assuage the jealousies of the powers and to avert that frightful calamity—a European war. England would not embark on reckless and adventurous ‘xperimeuts, but would always defend the interests anid honor of the country. Not im great standing armies did England find her chief strength, but as the guardian of the liberties of Europe she would have the support of Australia, Canada and her kins- men in the United States. There was nothing to fear ; for if England had to em- bark in war, she would find her distant colomes and dependencies a strength that , | would enable her, even if unsupported by allies, to defy the associated powers of Europe. —_ > -ie Prosperity. (Montreal Gaz tte.) The very large increase in the Customs receipts at Montreal last year over 1885, an ture will| has been appointed Secretary for the Col-|increase kept up almost uninterruptedly throughout every month of the twelve, Lord@amounting altogether to $1,680,000, taken by itself would be accepted as suflicient proof of the enlarged trade of the country. There has been no increase in the tariif, and the growth of the revenue under it is to be ascribed solely to the larger consumption f goods by the people, whose prosperity is yorne evidence to in many other ways, by he increase in the volume of exports before alluded to, the growth in the receipts of the two great railway lines, and _ the increased employment found by the banks for their funds. Home manufacturers also are enjoying a good demand for their pro- ducts, so that there will be little lack of employment for the working people of the Dominion during the coming year, during which, all the present signs indicate, the country will continue the steady progress ( } i t that it experienced during 1886. | i - Cape Breton Copper and Iron Mines. Mr. John Guner, of North Sydney, is in Halifax completing negotiations for the transfer to an English and American syndi- cate of the George’s River, C. B., copper and iron mines. The area comprises twenty square miles, the leads running through the whole distance ; and the quantity and quality is said to be equal to the best cop- per mines in Newfoundland, from which $8,000,000 worth of ore has been exported within a few years. The Cape Breton rail- way will run through the property and_ be of the greatest importance in its develop- ment ; while the whole property skirts na- vigation on the Bras d'Or lake. The iron is said to be twenty per cent better than that of Londonderry, which is regarded as one of the best iron deposits on the con- tinent. Anassay by Mr. Gilpin showed 65 per cent ‘* of splendid Bessemer ore.” Mr. Greener says there never was 80 much prospecting in Cape Breton as was done last year, and the result will be that many valuable mines will be ceveloped— not only in copper and iron, but also mica and plumbago. The George’s river mine is located on the eastern end of a mountain 00 feet high. The country along there has been settled and farmed for a century, but no one ever imagined until a year ago that they lived alongside of a mineral deposit the extent and value of which can only be determined as the years roll by. Rr -<—ap>:- <a Russia’s Preparedness for War. The Russians now have 120,000 men be- tween the Caspian Sea and Herat. Ac- cording to the best military estimate Rus- sia’s position is unassailable. It would be madness for an Anglo-Indian army of less than 250,000 men to attempt to operate im Central Asia against Russia. The follow- ing plan of operations in Central Asia has been drawn up by General Gourko, and will be put into execution in the event cf war. The principles of the campaign would be those of the Moscow campaign of 1812 against Napoleon. The second Russian commander would strictly avoid any gene- ral engagement until the Anglo-Indian army was drawn into territory at least six hundred miles beyond Candahar. A third Russian corps d’armee would await the Anglo-Indian advance in a strong- ly defensive position on the Kushan and Murghub rivers. Further 13,000 Cossacks at the first position of British advance would swarm through Afghanistan arouse the whole country, proclaim Ayoub Khan Ameer and harass British communica- tions and supplies, raiding around the British army, stampeding camp followers, etc., but avoiding a scrious engagement. A fifth corps of observation of 31,000 men, and 1,500 Cossacks to be stationed at Checkish Bar, on the Caspian, ready to march to Teheran the instant the Shah of Persia shows the slightest sign of aiding the English. Sixth, when the Anglo-Indian army has been drawn far into the interior, worn out by the difficult country and worried night and day by Cossacks,it would be attacked simultaneously by 10,000 men forming the first Russian corps d’armee. In case of British victory over the Russians ho advance would be followed by the im- mediate destruction of railways and made very slowly but surely. ne i 8 ELD AER Is there a cure for consumption?
