Although Canadians profess a strong
attachment to the British Grown, they
are beginning to regard their condition
Of political tutelage with a.feeling akin
to the sensitiVeness of groWn-up youth
to restraints upon bis exercise of adul,
discretion. At present Canada cannot
negotiate treaties save through tbs
British Foreign Office. Recently reso
lutlons we're introduced in the Parlia-
ment of Canada declaring that thecou
try should have the right to negotiate
commercial treaties for herself, aud,
although tbe resolutions were defeat ej,
they received a.stropg support.

MFR. Blaine's evidence before the
House Foreign AffAlrs COMMITTEES yes
terday was made up of fat denials tf
Shepherds sssertious. He denied that
he had ever known Of the papers seat
to the State Department about the Coch-
ct claim until Shipherd had been pre-
ssnted TO him. He denied that Shipherd
ever told bim about the offer OF $25O, 900
Of stock to II lrlbut, and presented let
ter from Senator B.air, who, according
to Shipberd, was present at the time, ,alsC
denying Shipherd's assertion. He den
led that he bad written $50 10, Steve,
on the margin If despatch to HuIlbut,
and declared his belief that Gen. Gar
field never heard Of the Cochet CAIN,
and that the alleged conference between
SbIpherd and Hurlbut never took place
The purpoIt of MIR. Blaine's explanation
Of what he really did was that the Coeh-
el claim received no more than the Or
dinary consideration given to such mat
teIs, and that the subject was dropped
as soon as Gen. Hurlbut had reported
upon the character of the claim. Mr..
Blaine declared Shipherd to be periur-
er, 6ut s1rewdly added that he was pre-
badly irresponsible by reason of mental
unsoundness. II seems to have occurred
to the witness that IL e Iry of mental
delusions would be necessary to account
for tLep eifsct harmony between Ship
herds testimony and the correspondence
carried on by him at the time OF his
dealings with the State Depaltment-N.

The annual statement of the re-

shows that not one dollar of the

The schools Of New Castle are main
Jained by taxes paid by the residents
of the Districts just as they are in
other districts of the State. The
NesOs sent the above false and slander-
Gus remarks abroad on Thursday in

the manliness to correct its falsehood,
although its attention has been re
peatedly called to it. The people of
New Castle without regard to party,
are justly indignant at the groundless
assault upon Mr.. Herbert, and many
Republicans have gone to him aud
told him so, Offering to vote for
him as often as he runs for a Trustee
OF the Commons, or City Councilman.

TIE HousE Committee on Banking
and Currency have reported unfavoraoly
on he bill authorizing State taxation oi
legal tender notes. The absurdity oi
taxing the greenback Is only another
way which the enemies Of the people''
money desire to exclude it from clFeolA-
tion and supply Its place with bank
notes for the benefit Of bank stockhoid-
ers. BY the present system Of tax the
holders Of greenbAcks are reached aAd Il
the notes themselves were taxed tna'
would only be adding to the burden tns
people already bear.
There are thres hundred and foity
millions of greenbacks in circulation
They form a debt of the government IL

would seem like the government taxing
itself, Just to keep some one in once
It would be we'll IL the greenback circu

MT. Blaine q Political FIIrt,

Mr.. Blaine has always been an am
oitious man, ss his great success proves,
but OF late years he bas had a cousum.
lng ambition to be greater than be is.
He began the world as a school teacher
then became an editor, then representa-
tive to Congress, then Speaker of the
HouSe, then Senator, then Secretary of
the State. There is but one higher place
ior MIN to aspire to in tho gift of his
courtrymeD, the highest of all, that OF
President of the Republic. To that for
ten years OF more he has without CON
cealment ssplred. The great Office hes
never sought him; he has sought it
How long ago he began to seek it oDlv
he knows, but probably az early as those
days OF his poverty and obscnrlty when
he taught school. But whether he be-
gan to aspire early or late to tue PresI-
dency he can never reach that goal, and
only because his countrymen, without SO
cleverIy phrasiDg 1t, have thought and
do think of Mr.. Blaine as "a nolltIcal
nirt" The peopls expressed the same
idea by saying they feared to trust MIN
with the vast powers OF the Executiue
once. The truth is, they doubted his
sincerity; they were never QUITE snra
that, II elected President, he wouli he
Inc same James G. Blaine of Maine as
he Tas before he was elected. What
most they feared was that, instead of
best serving himself as President by best
serving them, he would servo them oplv
IN such fashion as to best serve himself
alone. They seemed to feel that, want.
Ing the ONCE so much as he Appeared to
90, ne wanted 1t not so much becauss of
the patriotie good he could effect. IA
because OF the power, political and per-
sonal, 1t would give him personally.
The people are easily frightened nv
the efforts OF man who seeks too hard
to- the chief place, and by one means or
anotner they manage to keep him ont of
1t. They have kept Mr.. Blaine out of II
and forever shall. II Mr.. Blaine had
only been less Of"a political tiIrt - If he
had always been quite sincere and frank
In all bis acts, If he had not Written

Mr.. Lore's remark in his brief but
exeellsnt address, Is to the unity of
the party was justified in every par
ticuiar. There in no reason under the
sun why the party should not in the
approaching election win one of the
most brilliant victories 1t ever
achieved, Surely the people of this
county would not dare to trust their

them beyond any other council in the

confidence in the success of the Demo.
