TNELUENCE.
BY SUSAN COOLIDGE.

Coached in the rocky lap of hills
The lakes blue waters CLEAN,
And thence in linked and measured ri
Down to the valley stream,
To rise again, led higher and higher,
And Stake the city's hot desire.
High as the lakes bright ripples shine
So high the water goes;
But not drop that air-drawn line
Passes or overdows.
Though may man strive and man may W
The stream to its own law is true.
Vainly the lonely tarn its cup
Holds to the feeding skies;
Unless the source be lifted up,
The streamlets cannot rise.
BY law inexorably blent,
Each is the others measurement.
All, lonely tarn ! ali, striving rilli
So yearn these souls of ours
And beat with sad and urgent will
Against the unheeding powers.
In vain is longing, vain in force,
No stream goes higher than its source.

provide for the reclamation of waste lands.
He says he believes they could by this
means scatter the people abroad from the

sive scheme of government emigration
would cost.

LONDON, March go The London cores
pondent Of the Manchester Guardian says:
"There is reason to believe that the Cabinet
on Monday considered communication
from Mr.. Goschen, Ambassador to Turkey,
and also telegram from the Legation at
Athens, representing the urgency of the
position. 1t is highly probable that the
Cabinet have determined to make one more
effort TO maintain peace, and that
the final proposal for an
adequate cession Of territory to Greece will
be accompanied by pressure upon the
Porte which it will be very difficult to re-
sist. At this moment it Is evident that
these efforts are abortiVe. Greece, 1t is under
stood, will address a circular to the powers,
aud declaration to Turkey that she must
herself execute the decision of the Berlin
confererce.'
1t is stated from Constantinople that Ger
many has declined to take the initiative IN
regard to an exchange of views between the
powers relative to the frontier line, and has
instructed Count Won Hatzfeldt, the Ger
man Ambassador, to acquiesce in the views
OF the majority OF the Ambassadors.
Ire Lan MG1 Gazette, in leading article,
says: "It is expected in well informed cir
cles, that war In the East will be averted.
Substantially, the powers believe that the
latest proposal, of the Porte represents
the most that can be exacted from the Sui
tan without war. The Greek Government,
without the plea of superior force to excuse
their acquiescence In the curtailment
OF the Berlin award, would She
driven into war by the people. On every
ground 1t is therefore satisfactory to learn
that there is fair prospect that the powers
VIII insist upon the acquiescence of Greece
In an arrangement which has recei yed the
sanction of Europe"
This arrangement is probably represented
by compromise between the Porte's last
offer Of territory in ThessaIy, comprising
Lorissa, Trikola, Turnova and the
whole valley of the Salombra,
but excluding Prevess and Met
zovo, or any part of Epirus,
and the demands of the powers regarding
