as follows

any such prescience but that they will be most
interesting snd eventful for Canada, believe

Of her ablest men. While there is everything in
our position to keep the public mind awake and
vigilant while We are sending embassies 20
other governments on both sides Of the Atlanti;
always with the sanction Of the empire while
the name and status Of Canada and British
America are beginning 10 be more felt and much
better understood abroad, there Is everything 90
encourage as well as 10 exercise healthfully the
public mind. (Cheers) The public Of the
United States alone does not seem 20 comprehend
results produced among Us by events arising
in the United States they do not allow for
they DO not seem 10 comprehend how much Ne
have been taught by their civil war-at least,
such is my impression from reading the COM

in which they display little or no insight into

TEE STRONG Divorce CAsE-This noto-
rious case has resulted in nothing but the
debau ching of public morals by its parade
OF indecencies and crimes through the col
umns of the New York daily papers. The
jury after beng out for forty-eight hours
were unable to agree on one Of the issues,
and were discharged on Sunday. All were
agreed that Mrs. Strong had been guilty Of
adultery On the other question, of adulte-
~ charged against Mr.. Strong, the jury
stood ten in favor of verdict declaring his
innocence to two against him. 1t is charged
that these were bribed 10 hold out. The
whole trial in the publicity given to its dis
gushing details, in the conduct Of the law
yers engaged On each side, and in its incon-
sequential result, has been an ofense against
public morals; and if all concerned with it
could have been given term in the peniten-
tiary, the world would be better of.
