FEY, {and make nice Christmas wre, to United States is prepared to maintain by force of arms, has not been seen by the present generation. The White House has been flooded with messages the country, containing not only con- gratulations, but offers of volunteers by thousands from organizations of veter- qans, both Uuion and Confederate. Congress forgot its past antagonism to- wards the President and gave him the authority to appoint a commission to in- vestigate and report the true boundary between Venezuela and British Guiana and appropriated the moneyto pay its ex- penses, and to show Great Britian that no bluff was being made abill has been introduced in both branches of Congress appropriating $100,000,000, to be im- mediately available, tor strengthening the military armament on our sea-coast and the Caradian frontier. Congress, like the President, fully recognizes the tendency of European governments to make light of the Munroe doctrine, and lis determined to let them learn differ- | © ently, if it takes a war to teach them the lesson. . Whatever may be the opinion of peo- ple as to President Cleveland’s | past acts it is universally believed that his Monroe doctrine message will be known in history as the second Declaration of Independendence. Secretary Olney is also getting high commendation from all quarters. His masterly communication to Lord Salis- bury is justly regarded as the best inter- pretation of the Monroe doctrine ever printed, one which should be used as a text book in every school in the United States. It has placed him at one bound in the front rank of American Statesmen, and was never excelled by anything written by his great predeces- sor ia the office of Secretary of State, Daniel Webster. his same to be very frequently mention- ed as the democratic candidate for Pres- ident next year.

The dispatch of Mr. Olney is in tone and manner 2 insuling.as if it had been written by the Irie James G.

Salisbury bas acheived.a. sigual+ victory over Cleveland and his cabinet. The maiter w:ll probably be amicably adjusted on the basis orisinally laid down by Great Britian. Mr. Cleveland has not often yieldéd to the demands, _of American politics. It is regrettable’ that he should have done so on the _ present occasion.” The Toronto Mail concludes a long article on the Président’s message as follows. “The commission is a yery good device from Mr. Cleveland’s point of view, which is evidently that of the politician who is out ot ‘votes. ‘Tt =wauld probably be long before the com- mission could report, hut inthe mean- time Mr. Clevaland’s firm vindication of the doctrine would be winning votes for his third term election. We. may be sure, however, that whoever wins or loses in that election, not a foot of Brit- ish territory will be transferred to a foreign flag by any ruling of their blust- er and Monroe doctrine.” i : : The Rights of Eine aussi nate atad Itis a. divine” Settings: to be head of > J 3 no 7 nigh ill use or aE, thé woman who | tog | hi for better olorse” He has no right to scold and terrify bi children. .

It is about all they do wear. And the umpire and his attendant are clad in the now obsolete kamishimo, or cere- monhial costume, the chief peculiari- ty of which is the projecting wings of gauze.

Naked except for a loincloth and a fringe of blue. cord attached to|a waistband, they strut to the platform in the glory of 250 pounds of avoirdupois and gi- gantic musdles coyly hidden beneath ‘an inch of fat. Kobe takes a mouth- ful of watér from the bucket at the corner of the platform. and sprays it over his limbs. Osaka follows suit. Next they ‘abstract’ a pitch of salt from a box near by, ‘wrap itina morsel of ‘paper and bury it in the earth that covers the platform. This for luck. Having slapped their thighs violently, they squat on their haunches and glare at each other. Osaka, having apparently forgotten something, goes back to and has another mouthful of water, after which he comes back aad calm ly contemplates Kobe, who by this time discovers that he requires some liquid refreshment ‘and’ accordingly goes and gets it. At last Kobe and Osaka arein a position irresistibly reminding the.casual spectator of a couple of gamecocks, After a deal of slapping of thighs Kobe bounds ‘upand makes a grab at Osaka, whom he misses by something ‘Joss than a ‘mile.
