thankful to be able TO state that at
the Present moment England had ac-
tually no quarrel, feud or controversy
with a foreign power anywhere on
the surface of the globe. Englands
place in Europe was that OF one
among many sisters inseparable from
the European family but he was
glad that her peculiar position remov-
ed her from the risks Of European
discussions. Peace was never so Ger.
tain as now. He believed that the
sentiments of friendship and attach
ment which have been Expressed by
the Minister OF the United States on
the part Of the American people for
their brothers in Great Britain were
universally felt in the breasts of both
nations. When" said Gladstone
with much earnestness, "the Ameri-
can Minister spoke Of the relief for
Chicago, the heart Of every one in
this great hail answered how Ameri-
ca would have been eqally ready to
pour out her treasure for our relief,

only obviated future controversies.
1t was an extension of that internaa
tional code which was the most re-
markable Of the trumphs of modern
civilization, and might possibly inau-
gurate peaceful arbitraments OF ali
disputes among nations" The Pre-
mier concluded by declaring that
England had little to fear from Inter
national troubles and that the Inter
national Society, source Of so much
apprehension to her neighbors, caused
no uneasiness here
