The Toronto Colonist quotes the spirit
less reflection Of some Of our Gotten and
bullion organs on the prospect of war
with Engl nd, and adds the following
amusing" comment:
1t is most amusing to Se how suddenly
pacific the americans hare become. They
were wont to talk in the most clustering
way of war, TO boast of their power. and

a. bully brought TO bis level, and it Is SO
with nations as well as with individuals.
The United States are too much given to
boasting. 1t is one Of their national weak
nesses. and one which they should get over
as soon as possible, for il is beneath the
dignity Of great nation to be perpetually
boasling Of its greatness. They should
also bear in mind that they, Of all nations.

likely to avoid it. and preserve the peace
between themselves and England. and all
the world besides.
These taunts come with bad grace from
a nation that would have been whipped
out Of its boots by Russia, had it not been
for France. The English press has only

A very genteel and pretty lady stepped
into confectioners' shop in Boston. and
requested in an agitated manner, permis-
sion of the proprietor to go below, into the
