tyranny of this sort. It meld not obtain a trial in
any existing nation; and it could not last a week.
If any sane men in the civilised world really appre-
hend that such an experiment will be tried on a
national scale in the 19th century, we ma ooly say
that their timidity is worthy of Chinamen, and their
modality of Taroomens. It la incredible that

Mistily, by Socialism might be meant those espeti-

meets which have been extensively tried la the Old
World and the New, bat that it is difficult to under-

have involved say espial tyranny, any eoononde
folly, have faded, both in Europe and America.

The Central American difficulty is accidently
stated to hare received a satidectory solution I. a
convention and treaty said to hare been 'occluded
between Honduras and Groat Britain. The leading
features of the migrant are understood to be a
guarantee of the neutrality of the territory to be tra-
versed by the projected later-oosanic Railway, and
the freedom of its terminal poets against our condos
of Beaten and the other two small islands, in moos-

disposed of without the ostensible intervention of
Amities.
