O. Why does it offend you to the soulP .
A. Because it rings hollow
O. Wherein does the hollowness with which

0. If, then, there Is nothing in Mr.. Blaine 8
conduct that invalidates his Florence letter, what

else reason for not condoning it ?
A. Well, if we had written it, we would not
only have declined to run, but would have in
structed the Republican Convention to that effect.
O. Then q letter of declination of a candidacy

A. Yes, he did.
O. Did he not write, in ! Ss4, that the elg
ibility of President for reelection was fraught
with danger TO the best interests of the country
A. Yes, he did.
O. And nevertheless, in the face Of this letter de-
clining on high public grounds to run for Presi
dent in 1883, is not Grover Cleveland to-day an
avowed candidate for the Presidency?
A. Yes, he is.
Q. Have you heard of any Mugwump upbraid

BRITISH Colonial OFFENCES.

The Salisbury Government is availing itself
of the periodical war scare in pressing its money
grants for colonial coast defences. Mr.. Smith
has asked the Commons for authority to borrow
Sl.25O.OOO for various defensive objects in
Australia. and S1OOOO,0OO for Notifications
at Malta, Gibraltar and other stations. These
loans are to be regarded as temporary, since the
dividends on the Suez Canal shares purchased
bv Lord Beaconsfield will be available in few
years for liqudating them. These shares,
1862 in number, or about twO-ffths Of the
stock of the canal, originally cost the British
Government something less than 81 %, 000, 900.
The dividends on these shares had been alien
ated 50 long in advance as 1894, but the Khe-
dive had agreed to pay the Government inter
est ON the investment at the rate of 8 per cent
during the intervening period. In six years
the Al. nual dividends Oh the stock will be at
the DISPOSAL Of the Government and will form
a rapid sinking fund for the extinguishment
Of the debt now incurred for colonial offences
Recent debates in Parliament have disclosed
the necessity for precautionary measures of
This nature. Viscount Sidmouth has stated
that four docks at Malta were the lie resource
for the repairing of British war ships in the
tablishment of the kind between Bombay and
the Channel ports. Malta itself could no longer
be considered impregnable and if it were capt
ued by a hostile feet, there would be no base
for naval repairs for the British navy between
the Channel and India. At the Cape of Good
Hone there were private and Government yards
but these were wholly unprotected. At Singa-
pore and Hong Kong there were private dock
ward accommodations for vessels Of small SIZE
In Australia there are better facilities, but the
ports are undefended. Lord Brassey, who is a
high authority on this subject, has shown in an
elaborate report that the coalng stations now
in use by British vessels would be at the mercy
Of hostile fleets in the event of war; and that
dock accommodations for the navy and the
merchant marine are remarkably deficient.

TIE ONLY GENERAL.

The assertion so often made in London that
Lord Woseley is Englands only general is not
complimentary to the military genius OF that
nation. His campaigns have been neither
numerous nor brilliant. He was sent out to the
Gold Coast to subdue rebellious tribes and
while he was successful, there was much TO
criticise in his operations. He neglected to
make adequate arrangements for transporting
supplies to barren campaign ground In the
bush and on the march he was forced to make
two long haltS in consequence of scarcity OF pro-
visions. When he had won two pitched battles
he was seriously crippled by transport service
that had actually broken down and he was
forced to retreat from the enemy's capital as
rapidly as he had entered it, The campaign
would have closed ingloriously if Captain
Glover with native army had not renewed the
