The Globe says it under- stands its Government intends to deal next session with the redistribution of seats in the House of Commons, but it is added av exhaustive enquiry into the question will first be made by a House or depart- menta! committee. —Whitelaw Reid, editor of the New York Tribane, who has returned from his mission a8 President McKinley’s envoy to London on the occasion of the Queen’s jubilee, in the course of an exultant article on the triumph of American diplomacy, hits the blustering press and diplomats in the following vigorous fashion : The American Secretary of State has set forth the American side of the sealing case with an emphasis and directness which some deemed harsh. That was the signal for a regrettable outbreak. The irricated Britieb press replied in xind,and injudicious American critics added a strident chorus. For atime the eara of the groundlings were wel] nigh split. But the calm, self- poised and undemonstrative American Ambassador and the business-like British minister of foreign affairs pursued the even tenor of their way unmoved; and now, amid the vanquishing wrack of the storm, they announce tothe world their deliberate conclusion, unswerved by all the tumult. It is a lessou that many may well take to heart, diplomatists, journalists and private citizens alike. Those who are really re- sponsible for international relations, and who are worthy to bear such responsibility, are able to talk without shouting and to bargain without fighting. And in such men the American foreign service has not been and is not lackinga —The New York Journalist’s advises the United Strtes to better its own condi- tions before devoting so much time and attending to the shortcoming of its neigh- bors. It says: “The true test of patriotism—of Ameri- canism, Of loyalty to ‘Old Glory,’ the American eagle and alli the rest of it—is to pitch into England. Threaten to push in John Bull’s face in Venuzuela in one breath and beg him to look after the walfare of Our unprotected citzens in South ‘Africa in the next. Criticise bis methods of dealing with the famine and plague in India, while the few bushels of wheat we have raised with much flourish of trumpets to send to the sufferers are lying useless because our system of polit- ics bas ruined our American shipping, and our poliicians could not find an American ship big enough tosend itin. This par- ticular brand of patriotism, which finda its vent in picking holes in somebody else, is very wearisome to the reasonable man.” On the other hand the Batfalo Inquirer is spoiling fora fight. “Asa matter of fact, it would dothis country a might of harm,” says that paper, “to have a couple of brisk wars just to show our dearly-belov- ed mother country, England, and a few other monarchies, kingdoms and empires what we can do when the occasion comes. —We are informed by our old friend Mr. Ross of “ Magic Healer” fame who has just ‘returned from « tour through the western part of the Island that there are excellent prospects of an abundant crop of every variety. A trip through that section of the country at this season of the year is all that could be desired. The greatest drawback to its full enjoyment is the disgraceful state of the western road for some distance beyond the flourishing village of Richmond. It appears that the supervisor will not attend to hie duties although hie attention has been called to it more than once. Perhaps now as we have the Liberal Government in full swing the supporters of the party may expect their requirements to be more promptly looked after. Mr. Ross states that the road was in such a dilapideted condition that night overtook him ere he reached Richmond station and were it not for the great kindness of J. R. Larkins, Esq., who kindly offered the shelter of his hospitable residence we might have been forced to travel for half the night as there is no public place for the accommodation of travellers. Mr. Ross gave a glowing account of some fishing exploits related by Mrs. Larkins who had just returned from a fishing excursion at the popular fishing grounds known as Beaton’s Mills. Some ‘of the fish caught were very large, one trout weighing about 23 pounds, the others varying in aoa but all fine specimens of the finny tribe caught in that section. ai aan oro For your summer house—Camp stools | was earnestly exerted e arly In the year to THE QUEEN’S SPEECH.

I gladly acknowledge the energy and self-sacrifice of my eflicers of all ranks, both Europeaus and natives, and of the many private persons who, with untiring zeal aud apxious desire to avoid offence to native feeling, have labored to save life and relieve suffering. An appeal to the sympathy of my subjects in all parts ofmy Empire was responded to in the most generous manner, and I rejoice to leara that owing to the satisfactory rain~ fall there is every prospect that the area of distress will be very greatly diminished. “The plague, which caused a large number of deaths, bas almost disappeared. The improvement is mainly due to tha energetic and judicious steps of the local governments. Every precaution will be adopted in view of the possibility of the recurrence; but, at present there is a steady decrease both of its prevalence and fata] effects. “Gentle men of the House of Commons: “IT aw grateful for the liberal provision to which you have assen:ed for increasing the maritime forces of my empire. “My Lords and Gentlemen : “It has given me great pleasure to sanction the arrangements you have made for enlarging the important harbors of Dover and Gibraltar and for strengthening the military defences of my Empire.

Montreal Gazette: Mr. Tarte says that in the darke-t days of the Liberal party Mr, Greenshields took $20,000 stock in the Herald. The Herald says he did not. Thus another divisien in the ranks of the Liberal party is registered. Montreal Star: Sir Wilfrid apparently bas his relt-adjustable policy abroad with him.

La Verite: “Our First Minister has great talent, thatof pleasing his hearers, no mater who they are. He can be every- thing to al] men and he has been honored by two Governments who have bated each other for certuries. This is a clever stroke, and our First Minister is decided!y a great man. Only the Maniteba school question is not settled; the official usage of the French language is abolished in spite of the constitution, and Mr. Tarte remains a member of the Cabinet.
