Our Wednesday contemporary appears to have
engaged a diplomatic reporter, although the
very Enthusiastically nature of his Information
is always conspicuous. Some time ago he re-
ported that the relations between the Foreign
Office and the French Legation were broken off,
which was an unqualified untruth. Now he re-
ports that IA Commander of a man-of-war in port
demanded an apology from the Foreign Office
under threat that he would steam out of harbor
if it was not given. This is another untruth.
We advise our contemporary to seek more cor
rect sources of nformatio than his talking iu-
formant.

Upon the occasion of the Coronation, as well
as upon the unwilling of the Statue, the Govern
ment building was beautifully dressed with a
series of flags belonging to a code of signals
now being prepared by J. A. Hassinger, Esq,
under whose direction the flags were made
Each flag is four and one half feet wide by nine
feet in length, and are divided into two groups.
The first ten flags are intended to represent the
nine digits and zero, as follsws No. l, red,
white, and blue in horizontal stripes. No. 2, two
blue and two red squares arranged alternately.
8, a red cross on a white ground. No. 4,
a green cross on a yellow ground. No. 8, green.
yellow, and green perpendicular stripes. No. 6,
a blue diamond on a white ground. No. z, red,
yellow, and green horizontal bars. No. 8, red,
white and blue perpendicular stripes. No. 8,
red and white squares alternately. No. 10, white
diamond on q blae ground. 1t will be seen that
any combination can be made so as to render
communication easy from one vessel to another,
or with the shore. The five distinguishing pens
nants are used to designate the class of ques-
tons asked. These same flags were used last
night to help decorate the dancing pavilion at
the State ball.

THE Opposition is a failure it wreaks its
hysteric energies in vain. 1t illustrates the
bark of a bad, pestilent cur at the heels of
a great, calm, Indifferent mastiff. 1t is all
cry and no WOOL The opposition has re-
called its readers with promises of political
earthquakes" 1t has predicted certain sure
periods of political change. 1t has limited
the time first of all for a few weeks-subse-
quently changed to months-and at last it
positively fixed the period of the present
Ministry'sd deposition at the immediate close
of the event of the Coronation. All their
~prophesies prove utterly false, and yet the
prophets continue their prepOsterous pre-
dictions. They talk of the masses of the
country, of the will and purpose of men of
brains, responsibility and wealth in the land
being determined to accomplish certain po-
gtieaI changes; but this opposition does not
represent any masses, or brains, or respect
ability and wealth of the community. In
deed. If the opposition had command of any
brains, why should its brawlers have been
idly vaporing, clustering, abusing and
threatening ever since this Ministry came
into power? The fact is, there is no
opposition to the Ministry, but a paltry,
personal a~ntagOnism to Mr.. Gibson
that has been carried on ever since he
showed his HAND in public affairs. These
insignificant howlers tried to put him down
at the last election, but he, with the cordial
good will and approval of the people, put
them down instead. The efforts OF the
opposition to produce some notable effect
on public sentiment, or to bring about some
substantial result in politics, have always
ended in miserable failure, which is to be
accounted for by the want of force of char
acter, ability or experience in the opposing
writers and leaders. They are common
place men Of small calibre, and fit only for
the routine Of their daily occupations in
life. In no sense are they qualified for polit-
icaI leadership. Their Misrepresentation
are too gross, vicious and puerile their
faIsifcatiOns are manifest, and useless, con-
temptibIe and s~eIf-evident even to their w
readers. At any rate their frantic outcries,
windy denunciations and chronic f~alsiica-
lions are all in vain. They may tickle the
ears OF a few narrow, p%Fejudiced souls that
can never get out of n prescribed biased
groove. They may amuse, occasionally, n
few dirty minds that itch for strong person.
alities, but they do not affect in the least the
clear. common sense of the community.
They, IN reality, manufacture no public
opinion; nor do they ruff1e the calm of
even a single Minister. Not a whisper or
echo of their malevolence reaches the peace
full preeints of the Throne. Verify the
opposition is an utter failure.

The Pioneer Press in noting an impor
especially careful to conceal the identity
of the extensive house which has inaugur-
ated this branch of business into St. Paul,
though fully aware of the facts, which were
supplied one of its representatives by the
collector of the port-Mr. Richards. While
it makes very little difference to the P. H..
Kelly Mercantile company whether their
name ever appears in the Pioneer
Press, it Is matter of in
terest AMI Importance to the
public to kuuw that st. Paul has an estab-
lishment carable of engaging in impor-
tations to .Gen an extent.
The facts ac- these: Some two years
ago the house of which P. II. Kelly is the
head commenced the importation of teas
direct from China and Japan. The bust
ness has increased to such an extent that
the house now ranks among the leading
tea importers in the United States. They
have Just received direct from Yokohama
cargo of over 1000 pack
ages. making eighteen car loads.
The freight alone independent of the du-
ties was $4,000. The steamer Arabic
the last steamer previous to
this arrival, only brought five thou
sand packages for the entire west. In
fact this is one of the largest shipments
ever made out of Japan to any single firm
anywhere. Their teas are all May pick
ings which are by far the finest
teas that come from Japan
being much superior in flavor and
quality to the second crop, picked in June
and July.
Some idea of the extent of st. Pau
commerce may be gathered from the fur
ther fact that the P. 81. Kelly Mercantile
company not only make these great i'm
portations for the West, but also impor
teas direct to New York via the Suez
canal, and sell direct in that market to the
wholesale trade. 1t is surprising to note
that the rate of freight from Yokohama tx
st. Paul is only two cents per pound. which
is the same as to Chicago or New York
There is therefore certainly no excuse fol
any one in the Northwest to send to sew
York for teas in the future.

NEW YORK.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

NEW YORK, July 25.-The bears did not
attempt to depress prices this morning
and the market was quite steady, with evil
dences of some great buying in the grang-
ers, Nanderbilt's and Northern Pacific pre-
ferred. There was q sharp advance in
Manitoba to S1.06. The day has been
rather dull one. We may be treated TO
many similar unless the difficulties be-
tween the telegraph companies and their
men are speedily settled. There was
much epathy visible before the strike, and
it is now more intensified, operators show
a Discrimination to do business, preferring
to await Developments. In the meanwhile
crop prospects improve if such thing is
possible, and the outlook for
an immense business for railroads
increases from day to day. The market
closed dull but firm for the majority of
stocks. Northern Pacific preferred was
in demand ct the last. A disposition to
cover shorts was seen in several quarters.
A Gould broker said to-day: "Mr. Gould
has covered his shorts in New York Cen
trail, Lake Shore and Union Pacific, but he
has not been able to cover much in Jersey
Central. I think you VIII find he has
been borrowing money to go in heavy
when a rise comes" Western Union was
solid. Rumors of a compromise of the
strike prevailed, and there was good buy
ing. 1t is apparent that Gould
is standing firmly under it. The
company's transfer books show that in.
vestors are buying the stock at the rate OF
$500 shares weekly. VIM. II. Vanderbilt
said to broker at Saratoga yesterday: 81
am glad I'm out of the harness. 1 feel al
interest in the Central properties because
my sons are in them. do not want to d.
the work any more and be blackguardeG
for it. 1 drive my horses and have my nal

ton to the market. but New York Contra
