BRITISH NEUTRALITY AND REBEL BELLlG'

To tIs Editor Of M Ttorns TrIf fLf.y-a! t' !,
"Thaf the Rebels ultimately acquired tne status u
beiligerents there Ia VI
SIK II by this is meant belligerens on lahu' tneio
is no question But whether they ever acquired tnS
status on the ocean is great question-one OF tne
greatest in the history of International law. we
should never cease to contend, in the interests oil
civilization and good neighborhood, that there can
be no ocean belligererey without prize courts, Inc
beligerent power on the ocean must have ports ana
courts TO which its prizes must be brought. These
feilino. ocean belligerency fails. The burning of
przes testes to the want of these essential cond-
tous on the part of our Rebels Lord Russell should
bsve DELAYED his proclamation Of neutrality until il
vas nerfectly manifest that these conditions existed
and then again. according to every pledge OF British
history. he should have delayed it so long as there
,ras the cornerstone of the new power. O.

HARD Coal STOvEs.-Although soft or btu.
minous coal is SO plenty and cheap at Ottawa
that one would think nobody could afford to
burn anything else, we notice a number of our
citizens are providing themselves with hard coal
stoves, suca as the "Morning Glory "oriental," I"
and other base burners, and are procuring their
fuel from Chicago, at a cost of from $i2 to $l4 .
ton We can give owners of such stoves hint
that may be valuable. Instead Of hard coal, we
use coke. We started coke fire in an "Orien.
tall On the lst of November. and that FIRE has
been kept going to this day go days at cost Of
not over u bushels Of coke. We calculase that
Sl2 to $l5 worth of coke will keep US very com.
Portable during the winter, while the cost of
hard coal, We believe, is not less than $40 for .
winter TO each stove. o.
