views of the Ministry. What then j.
the upshot of the Earl OF Carnarvon's
speech? 1t is a peculiarly emphatic
reileration of the neutral policy which
the Ministers on all responsible occ.

This decisive deciara ion has been
made not at all too soon, but ought
to terminate finally the alarm and ex-
element by which the public recently
has been disturbed. For Il is purpose
it should be only necessary tn adj u
