Ing to the claims Of the United States for indirect

BRITISH PRESS OPINION.
The London Times publishes an editorial on the
subject of the Alabama claims question in It's issue
this morning. The writer considers the situation
to-day more satisfactory" He denies that the
quarrel was sprung because Gladstone feared the
eject of the intrlgues OF Dsraeli and Dixie, for
nothing he says, "could be more unpopular in
England.
The London Telegram alleges, edltorally, that 1t
Goes not credit the report that reply to Lord
Granvilles note has arrived from Washington. The
writer thinks 'the American Cabinet will wait until
the text Of the note Is received by mail before
making a formal answer"

lately on view at Le;vitt's causes an artis-
tic Juror. Some of those interested in native
art are displeased that 50 much patronage
should be extended to foreign artists while
our own are comparatively neglected. The
cure for this evil is, however in the hands of
the artists themselves. Let them only de-
velop the same capacity, work with the same
devotion to their art within the true compass
OF their powers as their rivals, and, though
they may not succeed in excluding foreign art
from the patronage of our people, they will
secure at least such large share for them
selves as will enable them to regard with
equanimity the competition of foreign art.
