Tree PLANTING.-Our town people are show
ns their good taste in planting shade and orna-
nental trees along the streets and about their
.es sciences. In our long dry seasons nothing is
more handsome, healthful or more gratifying to
he eye than choice varieties of ornamental shade
trees. We hope this tree planting will continue
lntil there is not a residence or business house
IN town that is not surrounded with choice and
thrifty shade trees. Aside from the beauty and
comfort such trees afford, they are healthful and
great protection N case OF fire.

OUR ENGLISH RELATIONS.
Minister Schenck Interviewed.

New York, December 81.
General Schenck, our new Minister To
England, in an interview with q reporter
yesterday, gave somewhat guarded
statement oi his opinion on the important
matters now pending between Great Bri-
tain and tho United States, In regard to
the fishery question tho General said:
."bIy impression Is that Great Britain IS
not half SO difficult to deal with in rcla.

themselves. hayereason 10 believe TINT

tions OF the provinces towards the people
OF this country, but my opinion Is that
England feels annoyed at tho conduct Of
the Canadians, and win probably send
out delegates TO the government Of the Do
minion with instructions 10 put curb on
their arrogance and TO bring them
to tho sense OF duty they owe to
the people Of the United States without
regard 10 the merits Of tho case. I
must say that their behavior has been
churlish and offensive in the highest de-
gree. l believe that If England could,
without sacrifice Of her traditional pride,
give up her colonies in America, she
would most willingly do so, or II Canada
would sever ther connection with the
mother country and declare herself an
independent State, the British govern
ment would raise no objection 10 such an
arrangement, The trouble Is that Canada
sticks too closely, and prefers to be an
English province. English interests lie in
the east. and her possessions in that quar-
ter arc means by which she can
check the ambitious designs of other
powers, and 1t Is my opinion that In the
natural course Of events Canada
will lapse into our Union. Hc
thinks that there will be some
thing more than dollars and cents Is
required in the settlement OF the Alabama
claims, such as the opening Of the ST. Law
renee, and tho same rights for American
fishermen as for Canadian. He could not
exactly tell in what forms our claims will
be presented, and what terms they will

no doubt that they will leave him very
