On Saturday the great question Of
the Dardanellss was fully discussed by
the Berlin Congress. and the conclusion
arrived at was that tho Straits shall re-
main US they are. closed to all ships Of
war. This is the great point Tor which
Disraeli has been working. and the tri.
umph Of his diplomacy is now complete.

the Treaty OF San Stefano, and which
would have been used for tho convent.
sncs Of Russian msn-of.war. has been
returned to Roumslia, and the key OF the
H~ellespont remains in tho keeping Of
the Porte. Thus everything for which
Russia fought has been lost, and what
she gains is simply the narrow strip Of
Bessarabian territory. and possibly Ba-
toum. on the southeastern shore Of the
Black Sea. The war which was entered
upon with . h%ypocntical prsteIt on the
part Of the Gar. has resulted In
strengthening the power Of Austria and
England. and in gaining no material ad.
vantage for Russia whatsoever. The
end Of the Congress draws near. and

somewhat from her exhaustion. whom
she will again begin to push southwark.

The Democratic party has always been
the oppressor OF the poor. and II is so
to-day. The South has ever been the
Democratic stronghold, and in that Sec
ton Of the country the Democratic aris-
tocracy owned their laborers for years.
and availed themselves OF the sweat Of
their brows without compensation. Even
the white laborers there were and still
are the most degraded people in our
country. In the North. labor is pro-

publican ascendsncy. The New York

"Ths American laborer must make

ingman will be nearer to that station Of

preparing for some time to celebrate the
anniversary Of the battle Of the Boyne.

has determined. therefore. that there
shall DO NO procession in Montreal on
that day. but as the orangemen continue
their preparations and their

quite likely that tho Mayors efforts to
save life will fail. In short. by his pro-
elAmAtiou he simply places tho Orange
men in the position OF Law breakers IL
