It was notable scene which took place in
Westminster Abbey last Tuesday afternoon,
when a Grant memorial service was held
with an address by Canon Farrar. That it
should have been held in that edifice, sacred
to the memory of English sovereigns and of
the most illustrious among English subjects,
and that it should have been attended by the
most eminent living Englishmen, including
the chiefs of the late and present ministries,
the representatives of the royal family, the
commander in-chief of the English army, and
the highest in rank among the nobility OF the
country, gave significant proof of the change
which has taken place in English sentiment
between the days of 1861 and 1885, and of
the closeness with which the ties of race and
community of national spirit and purpose
have bound the elder and younger nations to-
gether,
But more significant still we're the words
of Canon Farrar in his memorial address.
They included fervent and eloquent euloey

fields and Grants early conscientious atten-
tion to humble duties fitted them TO become
kings of men," And referring to the war
for the Union Canon Farrar said: "God's
light has shown for the future destines of

neoessary-a blessed work. The eauae for
which Grant fought-the unity of a great

that city will be financially loser to the ex-

pent-up feelings in the following plaintive
strain: "a law was legally enacted by the
last Legislature against prize fighting. and
We do not see how it can be ignored,
though it must be admitted that the Sulli-
vsn-Rysn contest if permitted would bring
500. 900 to Butte. Undoubtedly many
citizens OF Butte would like to have the
fight take place here and are willing to
stife sentiment for cash. II the law is
sustained by an enlightened public opinion
il will be enforced, but without sustenance
it will prove a dead letter and do much to
bring other laws into contempt. The
only way out of the difficulty seems to be
to let the combat take place across the
