'No JOY without alloy,' says the simple
adage, and this applies to nations as well as
to individuals. In 1876 there were 5000
more vessels of all flags entering and clearing
from British and Irish ports than there were
in 1871, but the number of vessels clearing
out of these ports with cargoes has been in
creasingly diminished, while yet greater
number have been cleared in ballast. This
means that British exports have gone on di-
minishing, not alone iron and steel, copper
and tin, but cotton and woollen piece goods.
General imports, on the other hand, have
immensely increased, especially from the
United States. Sojoy over the increased
number Of ships and tonnage entering British
and Irish ports declines into regret over the
fact that the imports are increased, the ex-
ports have decreased, aud the greater part of
the imports are American productions and
manufactures.

IN spite of the royal claims of cotton, it
still furnishes comparatively small share of
the freight business of the country. A COM
parison of the relative importance of cotton
ports from 1872 to 1877, inclusive, shows that
New Orleans, New York and Savannah are
increasing in the per cent. exported from
them respectively, while Charleston has
doubled and Norfolk has risen from nothing
to four per cent. New Orleans, however, still
exports 40 per cent. of the whole, while Mem
phis and st. Louis are the largest interior cot.

PROF. HUXLEY aptly describes positivism
as ga half-breed between science and theolo-
gy, endowed, like most half-breeds, with the
faults of both parents and the virtues of nei.
ther." The doctrine of the. future life as af.
fected by Positivism seems to Prof Huxley
even more irrational than the Christian Doc
trine, since it attempts to prove negation,
which from the nature of the case cannot be
proved. He sees nothing base or selfish in
the desire for real future life; and, though
he himself is not satisfied of the existence OF
such life, he at least will not revile those
persons who are satisfied.

tom, has tho sole care Of thousands Of
square miles, including not only the In
dams too distant for us TO have much knowl-
edge of. but. just across the border, the
Assinboincs, Picgans, Crccs, and Saultmux,
the two former Of which tribes are found
also on our side. while all are known to hc
as wild and fierce M any Indians in our
domains when the mounted police were
organized, less than five years ago, the two
former tribes were at war with each other,
and the first duty of the police WAS to stop
the war, which they did.
or course the contrast bet tween this petty
civil force Of police, which preserves peace,
and our army. which * continually at war.
Is striking; but the former, bv its exclusive
control its Justice. and its skill. makes up
for lack of numbers, being never balicd by
an Indian policy regulated H. suit cOyetous
settlers and swinding traders. This mount
cd police force soon made itself the impartial
protector of the wrOngcd and the recognized
arhiter Of disputes. Major WALSH has made
arrests and recovered stolen property,
either alone or with only u few men to aid
him, without really running any personal
risk, and never bringing on, as our rcprisals
often do, u bloody and costly war.
We take full account Of the difference be-
tween the Canadian northwest and our own
northwest, Ia respect to the formers spars-
ity OF settlement and slow entertainments Of
immigration. But this Is not the secret Of
the success Of the Canadian policy with In
dams and the failure Of our own; If it were,
the least thickly settled parts of our from
tiers would also hc the sccncs of the fcwcst
~
now are. the scenes Of the most frequent
and blOOdicSt. one real difference Is that
our Indian policy Assumes that the rcd
mans destiny * to bc eNterminatcd; and
hence that little more or less hurrying of
his fate is of trillng importance" a scnti-
mcut obviously not govcrnin, the Canadian
policy at all. And second difference Is that
the greed and violence of the frontiers are
in league with the Infamous corruption Of
Washington to rob the Indian of his rights
and 10 Kill him If he complains.
In Canada we have just seen even such
newcomers a. the cNilcd Sioux regarding the
Dominion officers rs their protectors and
friends Where do the rowing Indians so
regard our officers When orders for attack
go To our army. they are invariably orders
To attack the Indians in behalf of the white
settlers; and to suppose that the Indians
can ever bc right and the settlers wrong is
outside the ken Of Washington policy. In
| Canada on the other hand. an Indian il con
sdcrcd as Il man who has rights that white
men must respect; and on the other side Of
the border such a piece Of governmental
outrage as driving the peaceful Ncz Pcrces
to war would have been impossible.
Apolicy which requires only u few mount
ed police to guard Indian domains so vast
| which does this without extra cost and
without blood, deserves study at Washing
ton. 1t is certainly better than the policy
which holds that the only safe and iii condi-
tion for the red man is the condition Of
scridOm.
