The Earl of Beacons6eld and the Marquis of
Salisbury were accorded a most magnificent
and enthusiastic reception on their arrival.
Last Thursday Beaconefisld laid the treaty and
all the papers concerning the negotiations on
the table of the House of Lords. he also made
great speech explaining the details Of th e
treaty which be considered was as advanta
geous q one as could have been made even after
. war. He said:
1t was remarkable that after great war and
the prolonged agitation, all the powers
came to the unanimous conclusion that the
best chapce for tranquility of the world wss
to retain the Sultan ss q part of the European
system. He pointed out that every great war
was followed by redistribution CT territory,
but that was not partition. Austria had per-
haps lost more provinces than even Turkey.
France lost provinces, but she was still great
power, with q comma andinE future. England
lost some of her most precious possessions
through bad governments loss which every
Englishmsn must deplore at this moment, and
whioh would not have occurred il the principle
which now governs her relations with the
colonies had been then observed.

satisfacsory or inadequate, even if Obtained

and Russia Turkey had by treaty of San Ste

England had gone to war to recover them, the
war would have been long and expensive and
probably like most wars, would have ended in
