During the last three months long battle has
been proceeding between New South Wales and
New Zealand regarding the San Francisco mail
service and it is at length settled satisfactorily
for New Zealand. The late Government of New
Zealand entered into an arrangement for the SER
vice by which they agreed to pay t5l ,25O per an
mum against els,750 paid by New South Wales,
although the latter was to have the benefit of the
terminus of the line. For very little more the
New Zealand Government could have had the
terminus in New Zealand. They not only did not
take advantage of such opportunity, but they
consented to New South Wales having power to
withdraw during the last twelve months of the
contract, though New Zealand was to continue
bound. Of course, such provision gave the
power to New South Wales to pay what it liked
for the ycars's service as the boats were sill to
continue to run TO Sydney. II might, however,
at least have been supposed that New South Wales
would divide with New Zealand the benefit of any
reduction. This however, they showed no dis
position to do. They gave the requisite notice Of
withdrawal from the contract, intimating the
same to the New Zealand POSTMASTER General
and adding significantly that this would not pre-
cude them from considering fresh proposals from
the contractors, There was evidently an inten-
ton not to lose the service, but to obtain a re-
duction of the cost; indeed, the contractors sub
sequently admitted what amounted to an under
standing of this nature. The Government were
so annoyed at the manner in which II was pro-
posed to treat New Zealand that they determined
that the contractors at least should pay for it.
In order to do this they treated the withdrawal of
New South Wales as final, and had recourse 10
provisions in the Post Office Act which prohibit
ed steamers under contract to New Zealand from
carrying the mails of other colonies without its
consent. Accordingly, when the Postmaster-Gen-
eral of New South Wales announced later that he
/ had arranged with the contractors for reduction
of 1000, and to reioin as contractor subject to
New Zealands consent, the Postmaster-General
positively refused such consent gave notice of the
clauses in the Post Office Act, and declined to
allow the nails of New South Wales to be carried
| unless prior arrangement was made with him.
| He informed the contractors he would not agree
| to their arrangement with New South Wales I'm
| less they made corresponding reduction of 5000
4 TO New Zealand The contractors refused 10 make
any allowance whatever to New Zealand, where-
upon the Postmaster General gave them formal
notice not to carry the New South Wales mails
| without his consent. Lengthensd negotiations
followed, and have resulted at length in that
colony agreeing to pay New Zealand 1900 for the
| carriage of its mails. NewZealand will also get
the whole OF the amounts from the other colonies
for the carriage of their mails. The net payment
| "a New Zealand will be about 5000

Like the boy with the sled, who, as he
proceeds down tho icy hill, gains speed
faster and faster, the tippler has the
habit OF taking drink grow on him
until at last he is tumbled down the hill
of success and respectability. It is look.
cd upon as friendly to ask others to drink,
to help them go down the hill. This is
putting the occasion of sin close to men
who under the influence of liquor may
commit sins they would shrink from whe n
sober. 1t becomes the duty of every one
to avoid the occasion of ain and keep it
from others. The only way to keep from
drinking the fourth, sixth or tenth glass
is not to drink the first. Never run the
risk of offering drink to anyone. God
bless the physicians for all the good they
do for mankind, but many Of them have
to answer for the way they prescribe
whisky for persons These prescriptions
do great amount Of harm BE careful
to whom you give them. Some persons
need total abstinence ; others do not. 1t
is question between man and his God.
BE honest to yourselves. You know
whether the use Of liquor il the occasion
of sin. If it is, stop it, and for the sake
of Jesus Christ help put down this evil
that is sapping the life of society aud
religion BaRimor. sun.

BETSY HAMILTON,
Bishop Keaue on Temperance.

The congregation ut high mass he
Cathedral yesterday morning sgas Gil un.
usually large one. Bishop John J..
k':ne, of Richmond, Va, ono of the
ost eloquent Catholic prelates in the
United States, preached temperance
sermon. He said that Rev. Thomas s.
Lee, rector of the Cathedral, requested
him 10 touch the temperance question,
which at present, though the burning
one in American society, is nevertheless
n highly Objectionable one to many.
Any reference to temperance is liable to
incur the prejudices of some who have
their minds poisoned against the cause
because Of the many foolish and extreme
things done and said by the advocates of
local option. 1t is only natural, how.
over, that where 80 many are discussing
the same subject, where 80 many are
seeking the SAME purpose by different.
means, there should be lack of judgment
displayed by some and want of discretion
by others. Still the foolishness OF the
champions of temperance is no argument
against temperance any more than the
| sinfulness of Christians is against tie
| existence Of God or the advantage of
His religion. Bishop Keane referred to
the teachings of the Catholic Church on
| the subject. In that venerable Cathedral
two plenary councils have been held, at
which were present the assembled wis.
dom OF the Catholic Church in this coun.
/! try. III each were issued addresses 10
| the Catholics of the United States, show.
ing the evil effects of inten. perance and
the duty Of priest aud people on that
point. The addresses were similar, mas.
much as they mentioned that "snce the
most shocking scandals come from ex.
cessive drink, We implore every Catho.
lie, for the love of the Lord Jesus Christ,
to use every means to extirpate the vice."
1t is very true, rs some say, that we have
no direct reference from God Himself on
drunkenness, because He never came in
contact with drunken man. At the
marriage at Cana He reformed the mira.
Gle of changing water into wine, but the
wine did not serve as the occasion of sin
to the people who drank it. 1t was only
as the Apostles proceeded into Northern
and Western countries that the terrible
effects of intemperance became known.
In my own travels through the HOY
Land never saw drunken man. In
some countries Of Europe that visited
saw the people enjoying themselves.
slipping coffee or wine, but did not see
them having what we term "a good
time" Wine was not the occasion oi
Gin to them. It would be silly man
who would preach temperance to them
because there would be no need for It,
These people did not commit sin by their
use of wine. Sin, not the drink, is the
underlying peril. To day the greatest
destructive agency is drink. It is com.
puted that the standiag army Of drunk.
ards in the United States numbers $780,.
600 persons. The forces increase yearly
Whence do tho recruits come? From
among those who never drank before
Any one acquainted with the chemistry

OF alcoholic liquors knows that he who
