NEWS AND NOTES.

1t seems that the Liberal party N
/ Canada has not abandoned Its agitation
for commercial reciprocity with the
! United States. and that the Liberal
leaders are not afraid of being character
iZsd by the tories as "annexationists.
| As matter of fac, only portion OF
the Canadian Liberals favor political
union. They want to sweep away the
Custom Houses, but not the boundary
line between the United States and the
| Dominion.
Considering the strenuous efforts
which were made by Democratic lead
ers and by Democratic election officers
to count in a Democratic majority in
the next House, it is rather refreshing
TO learn from the Washington cores
pondence of the Post, that: The only
persons who made any effort IN figure
out Democratic mai in the next
House were officers OF thu present House
who wanted to retain their places.
The fortunes of war and the uncer.
tainly of human grandeur were never
more strongly illustrated than during
recent visit to Paris by the Ex-em-
press Eugene. Not a zen persons
knew that she was there. In carriage
she passed unnotced where formerly
she was the observed OF all observers,
Mrs. Josephine E Po', aged so, widow
OF Judge Nelson Poe, died Sunday night
at her residence IN Baltimore. Her
maiden name was Josephine GLENN, and
her sister, Virginia, ia the widow OF the
poet, Edgar Allen Poe. The sisters, Jo-
sephine and Virginia, married cousins.

The chief objection to the new search
clause, aside from the question of its
constilutionality, is that it is open to
serious abuse, and that it unnecessarily
subjects the Vermont prohibitory law
and Vermont as a community to critis
cism such as we have quoted from the
New York World, and quote above from
the RefOrmer. The opponents of prohi-

great handle of this new enactment.

no man or WON an can enter without
having his or her trunk, satchel. pocket
