Government that responsible Ministry
should be guidsd in its policy by ire
sponsible peeons. Hence it Is, that
with the h-st possible intention to CO.
onara+a with the Unionists, the Tory
lea er must rely upon himself alone.
The Tory Government as a whole does
not appear TO be strong one. In one
dispatch the Marquis Of Londonderry Is
set down as Viceroy of Ireland; in
another this great Office is given to the
Duke OF Abercorn. Both are compare
lively young men, heretofore untried in
positions Of serious responsibility, but
they are men OF marked ability and ex-
perience in parliamentary affairs. The
Foreign Office Will be filled by the Pre-
mier, Lord Salisbury; and the other
Cabinet appointments run pretty much
in the old groove. 1t is doubtful ex-
pertinent, however, to entrust Lord Ran
dolph Churchill with the leadership OF
the House OF Commons, as Chancellor
OF the Exchequer, in the face OF Mr..
Gladstone and the trained parliamenta-
rians Of the Liberal party. This young
noble1nau may be a statesman, but as
yet he has exhibited no signs OF the
fact He is decidedly wanting in tact,
but a sense Of responsibility may do
much towards changing his line OF
conduct in the House, and he
may turn out to be much
ADLER man than his extravagant
speeches lead one to suppose to be the
case.
The Irish question is the great issue III
British politics, and the Government Of
Lord Salisbury is bound to fail if it con-
ceives that liberal extension Of local
Government will satisfy the political
aspirations OF the Irish people. 1t
would be absurd to suppose that United
Ireland will accept crumb OF political
justice when it may, by polite course,
obtain a whole loaf as it were. The
Irish national party has been trained tC
knowledge of its power, and its leaders
are men of reserved force, who will no
be apt to weaken their influence by &C
cepting trifling concession to avoid q
temporary defeat. The programme o
the Tory Government will most assured
ly be rejected by the Irish people, anC
it may be that another general election
Will be held to ask the country whether
i prefers anarchy and misrule, with pes
tilent disloyalty in Ireland, to liberal
concession to that Kingdom, ensurin2
its loyalty to the Crown and orderly ad
ministration of law. When the issue i
thus squarely raised, the British people
may be trusted to vote for the latter
Meanwhile we have very little hope 70
the success OF the Home Rule policy il
the present Parliament. Wing tactic
| have rendered this impossible.

Sugar Interests.

A recent number of the British Trade
Journal states that the Dutch sugar
manufacturers who own plantations in
Java have prepared the calling together OF
an International Congress to consider
means for re-establishing the prosperity OF
the sugar industry, by bringing about an
equilibrium between protection and con-
sumption. The idea has been well re
ceived in Berlin. and committees have
been formed there to invite leading repre-
sentatives of the industry in Germany,
Austria, France, Belgium and Holland to
a conference, followed by a Congress, in
Berlin. 1t is proposed to organize an
exact statistical system in lieu of the pres
ent very faulty compilations. and to adopt
more general measures for controlling pro-
duction than those hitherto adopted,
which have failed to bring about the de-
desired effect. The question of legislation
will also be discussed, with the view to the
assimilation of the Sugar Acts in the sew
eral countries concerned.

MONDAY
August 9th.
THE LEGISLATURE.

The Legislative Assembly will resume
work to-day after recess of two weeks.
There is a great deal of very important
business to be disposed of, and it is to
be hoped that henceforward there will
not be resort to obstructive tactics. If
the Opposition could possibly effect any
useful purpose or strengthen itself in any
way by delaying legislation through per-
sistence in the course heretofore adopted,
one could understand its continuance :;
but as in the end nothing is to be gained
by it, a decent perception of the best in
terests of the country should suggest
different line of action. In the end the
National party in the Legislature will
give effect to its own policy and pur-
poses.
Whilst saying this we do not mean to
depreciate in any way proper Opposi-
ton. Its use in representative Govern
ment is we'll understood. 1t is a check
upon the Administration, and compels
closer attention to details of legislation
If the administration has done wrong it
points it out, and if the current of public
sentiment is in its favor it may succeed
in ousting the Government. But mere
carping criticism is politically Intellectual.
1t does harm instead of good, because it
begets feeling of antagonism which be-
comes bar to the reasonable considera-
ton of any question. This has been the
great defect of the Opposition during the
present session. 1t did not enunciate
any principle; it promulgated no new or
progressive idea; it suggested nothing
for the public veal and therefore it
failed utterly as a vital political
force For the sake of the country we
hope that the gentlemen who voice the
Opposition in the Legislature will take
the hint, and lend themselves Loyalty and
intelligently to the work of perfecting
legislation and bringing the session to a
speedy and successful close.
1t is not for us to indicate what meas
ures should be passed, but it is permits
sible to say that there are several bills
before the Legislature of practical char
acter which should have prompt and
early attention. These will doubtless be
brought up in due course. The Appro-
priation bill is also in a backward condi-
ton, and the general committee work is
greatly in arrears. The latter should be
brought up to date, so that when the
House resumes to-day there may be no
more delays through the failure OF select
or seasonal committees to report upon
bills or other matters referred to them.

THE UNITED STATES AND SAMOA.

Among the passengers by the Ala
media was Mr.. Geo H Bates, of Will
mington, Delaware, nephew of Secre-
Cary Bayard, who proceeds to Samoa as
confidential agent and Commissioner OF
the United States. His duties are
mainly to inquire into recent events at
Samoa, and to confer with the repre-
sentatives of England and Germany in
relation to the future government of that
archipelago The German Consul General
at Sydney will meet Mr.. Bates at Samoa,
also the Governor of FIJI, as representing
Great Britain. 1t is perhaps to be re-
GREETED that the Hawaiian Government
will not be represented at this confer
ence, as this Kingdom has quite as
much interest in the national develop
ment and progress of the Samoan group
as any Of the powers named. The
United States warship Monondac will
meet Mr.. Commissioner Bates at Samoa
and convey him thence to Tonga, which
has been recently visited by the Ger
man admiral and squadron. From
Tonga he may visit New Zealand and re-
turn by one of the Royal Mail steamships
to Honolulu, where he will probably
make a short stay. During his visit to
this city he had a conference with His
Excellency Mr.. Merrill, United States
Minister Resident and also took occa-
sion to acquire information from other
gentlemen having a knowledge OF the
position of affairs at Samoa and Tonga.

WAR CLOUDS IN THE OLD WORLD.

The aggressive attitude of Russia is
causing uneasiness in Europe. About
the time Earl Roseberry sent a protest
to the Gar against the closing OF Ba-
toum as free port, a change of Govern
ment occurred in England, and the po-
litical significance of this breach of the
Berlin Treaty was lost sight OF. The
Tory Government must first of all con-
solidate its position at home; it may
then have time to look abroad. But the
mischief NAV be done before it has had
leisure to apply itself to foreign politics
at all. The Russian Government APP
pears to understand this thoroughly,
and, ignoring the British protest regard
ing Batoum, it has demanded of Turkey
the cession of Erzeroum. This city,
which is the key of Asia Minor, was in
the hands of the Russians during the
late war. but was restored to the Sultan
in consequence of the Berlin Treaty 1t
follows therefore from these circum-
stances that Russia thinks the time is
opportune for resuming offensive opera.
tons Turkey is buying war supplies,
and great activity is reported in the
Danubian States, where war is regarded
as inevitable. England Will probably
be drawn into this war vortex, its inter
ests being seriously involved outside Of
its moral responsibility as a signatory OF
the Berlin Treaty.

BRITISH POLITICS.

Mr.. Gladstone has resigned and the
Tories are once more in power. Lord
Salisbury is Premier, having failed to
effect political partnership with Lord
Harrington and the Wings. Thus the
politics of England is wholly the hands
of the impulsive lieutenant of Disraei,
who stood loyal to that leader when
three great Tory peers withdrew from
his Ministry and endeavOred to paralyze
his foreign policy in Afghanistan and
the Levant in the interest OF Russia.
The Marquis OF Salisbury, however, has
a far more difficult task in hand than his
chief, Lord Beaconsfield; and what Is
far more to the point he is not possessed
OF the remarkable powers OF adaptibility
possessed by Lord Beaconstield. This
quality ensured the great Earl's success.
He never scrupled to appropriate the
popular features of his opponents policy
and make them his own; but the Mar
ouis of Salisbury cannot do this. 1t Is
AGAINST his nature His instincts and
training forbid a deXuous compromise
in which principle is subordinated to
expediency, which Disraeli would have
regarded as not only legitimate but nat
ural. Consequently the Tory Govern
ment must stand alone, although its
leader announced his intention OF acting
in concert with Lord Harrington, the
acknowledged chief of the great Wing
families and the recognized leader OF the
Liberal Unionists. 1t is contrary to the
spirit and working OF representative

The Oceanic COmpany's Royal Mail
steamer Alameda arrived at o'clock Sat

than seven days from San Francisco. She
left the latter place at 81 a. IN. Sunday,
August 1st. The first forty hours had
strong northwest winds, with a

with light easterly winds and smooth
sea. On August Sd one of the
passengers died of apoplexy. The
body was embalmed. The Alameda
brought eighteen passengers for this port
and had seventy-two in transit for the
Colonies. She brought thirty-one bags OF
mail for the Post Office. The Alameda
left for Auckland and Sydney soon after
noon on Sunday.

NEW YORK MARKET.
Lower quotations from London, with
liberal offerings of beet, both prompt and
future shipment, and indications OF an
easier market in Cuba, with cargoes for
shipment freely offered at concessions
from prices previously paid, have had
depressing influence upon this market,
and very naturally caused buyers to hold
of, with the expectation of obtaining fur
Their supplies at the lower range of values
than seem likely to be established when
business is again resumed. The depres-
sion OF the London market is thought TO be
due 10 the improving prospects of the beet
crop, while the easier tendency in Cuba is
probably on account OF anxiety TO sell sup
plies that holders are tired of carrying in
expectation OF realizing better prices. For
tunately for consumers, their present pO-
sition enables them 10 hold off, as they
are not only pretty well supplied with spot
