1t would afford US great pleasure to have
reliable data from which to add few names
of congressman to that of Hon. w. R.
Roberts, of New York, in the white list of
those who refused to finger the proceeds of
the big steal. Standing singIy, his name looks
lonely. We don't want the names of those
who took the $1,000 and handed it over to
charitable objects. That's merely way of
buying reputation with other peoples contr-
buttons. 1t isn't the clean honey Cincin-

It is less than nineteen years
since the United States succeeded
in opening the hermitically sealed
doors of Japan, and effecting q
treaty of commerce with that pecu-
liar nation. It was nine years after
that before the Japanese gave signs
of adopting any of the clements Of
Western civilization but since then
they have introduced into their
country the steam engine, the tele-
graph and q national system of edu-
cation-all steps on the way to
freedom which prepared the way
for the great change that has fol
lowed the removal of power from
the hereditary mobiles, and invest
ing it in the Mikado and his minis
ters. The last mail brings the an.
nonncement that an elective Parli
ament is to be established. This i
to consist of 600 members, and
there are to be two houses. The
Mikado and his ministers have de
termined that henceforth the people
shall have q voice in public affairs.

The year now closed, is memoir,
sble for the fearful gales and ms
RUE disasters which have been re-
coded. The number of lives los
and the amount of property destroy
ed upon the high seas have proba|
bH been above the average. Asid
IRON the numerous losses OF ship
and cargoes reported in the loca|
marine records, the cables have fol
the last three months been BURDEN
ed with the intelligence of tn
wrecks of ships and the suffering
of seamen. Insurance companiel
have lost heavily, as have also mel
chants who entrusted..their fortune
to the hazard of wind and wave,
many fine steamers and sailing vel
sells, with their precious lives an
valuable cargoes, have had to sue,
cumb to the gales that have sweI
with relentless fury across the gres|
pathways of commerce, and tt
ocean must have greatly added t
it's buried treasures. Very fe
landsmen have just appreciate
of the hardships endured by TIL
mariner at sea. Surrounded by tt
comforts of home, they are NJ
apt to think of 'sthe dark peri
which haunt the rim of the QUIT
world" So it ever has been-an|
so it will probably ever be.
