The Toronto (Canada) Patriot rebukes very earn
estly the warlike tone which has been assumed by
many papers both in the United States and in Eng
land, and expresses its firm belief that the interests
of both countries and Of the world demand the con-
tinuance Of peace. To Canada, it says, a war
would be fearful drawback and stumbling block
in her path to national greatness. Depending, as
that Province does, materially on the regular in
fux of British capital and population, war with
the United States, says the Patriot would throw us

The Charleston Mercury, speaking of the substi-
tuition of the Union as the Government organ in
place of the Globe, INDUCES in strain of remark
which will present no novel views indeed to the
minds of observant men, but which are worth noting
as coming from journal lately in close alliance
with the Globe and also as presenting striking
and true picture of things. We quote the Mercury
The tendency of the Globe has been tS make the interests
party usurp the place Of its principles and very obvious
result has been all the offices and expenditures of
the Government into grand party treasury, out Of which
army of demagogues be fed Such army exists
both sdes-a multitude who nearly all the dis
graceful turmoil of elections and whose sole interest
politics VIGOROUSLY the hope of Office who demand pro-
scpton when they out and denounce it when they
in who scupIe in the face of day transfer their
encc and noise from party the other and by their
shameless preensons principle, bring every good
to contempt and lead too many TO conclude that all party
only disguised struggle between demagogues
the gains of Office. Who does that this becoming
more and the case and elections are assuming
the character Of strife Of mercenaries for pay We will
stop argue that the Government of the country thus
ruptcd and the public liberty endangered that is manifest
The Offices of the Government will to be distributed
among who have faith honor whose life gar-
ing and shameless life who have already sold themselves for
gain and whom the pecuaton would scarcely be
loss of character And in most these demagogues
unfit from ignorance for the duties of Office. The education
Of politician is truly notable preparation for the bust
And this incompetency has led and
will continue lead to the multiplication of offices. Thus
because the country FIRST wrong by putting idle and ignorant
in Office be further bucned by increased ex-
pense remedy Thus, to make party Devices the quail
6caton for place is to that pay price
for a very bad article"

Pooh, BUT HONEST. The newspapers, and
other equally great authorities, make use Of this
phrase in biographical notices, " He was born of
poor, but honest parents - Poor, but honest; that
is to infer that the parents ought to have been dis
honest because they were poor; but that in the par
cular case they were honest spite of their poverty.
This common phrase is an insult to the condition of
ninety-nine men out Of hundred, and an indignity
to human nature. There might be, considering the
manner in which many fortunes are acquired, some
little shade Of meaning in saying of the heir Of for
tune, He was born Of rich but honest parents =
but the poor but honest phrase is atrocons. Let
it be reformed altogether Philadelphia Ledger.
