A Monumental Work.
A LIBRARY OF
AMERICAN LITERATURE,
COMPLIED AND EDITEDB BY
EDMUND CLARANtE STEDMAN y
AND
MACKEY HUTCHINSON

work of great value so pronounced by PRpF.
JOHN FIsKE G. WHITTIER DR.. @. w. HOLMES,
w. D HowELLs, Col. T. w. HIGGINs1N, PROF.
MOSES c. TAYLOR, and many other prominent
scholars and authors.
In ten elegant octave volumes of over 500 pa
ges each. handsomely illustrated with Is full
page portraits to each volume. This work is
really the intellectual histo of America; it is a
collection of the best selections that be made
from all that has been written by American au-
thors and is arranged Extraordinarily so that
the reader may view the course of our literature
from is inception in 1907 to its present variety
and emnece. 1t is a complete library in itself,
OF engrossing interest throughout. The selec-
tions are very full and, while they give compre-
hensive idea of the style and mental callbre Of
every author represented, they are at the same
time intensely interesting The work is and
must remain the standard collection of our nat
ional literature, and it should have sale even
more steady and lasting than that of our stan
dard en- cyclopedias; because. although equally
valuable in its way. it is more interesting than
any encyclopedias, and because it can never be-
come opt OF date or be superceeded by
something newer and
more abreast of the times. No set of books has
ever been more favO,ably received by the public
and press.

POLITICS lh(cANApA.
Interview With the Premier Minister Of
the PrOvincefof Quebec.


the Province@of Quebec.
New YORK, Dec. 81 Honore Mer
cier, premier minister of the provinos OF
Quebec, who is in the city on his way to
Salem, Mass, where he is to address an
assembiage of French Canadians on
Monday evening, N an interview on the
present political situation in Canada,
said:
There is not much talk of annexation
just now, but there is general feeling
in favor OF some political change. There
is, however, respectable portion of the
community In favor of maintaining the
present condition of affairs. AS concern
ing the proportion Of Canadians in favor
of the continuance Of the present politi-
cal system, cannot say exactly but
believe they are quite numerous and i'm
portant socially, politically and financial
ly. Those who favor a change are di-
vided between three schemes s-imperial
federation, annexation and independ-
ence.
Every few believe, outside the out
right Royalists, are in favor of imperial
federation, and may add that there are
but few real Canadians either French,
English, Scotch or Irish, in favor of the
scheme. OF course, Sir John A. Mac
donald, the prime minister of Canada,
who is Scothman by birth, is in favor
of the scheme OF the French Canadi-
ans, you could not find ten disposed to
speak in favor of imperial federation. l
need not add that I have no faith at all
in the success of the scheme.
"The general feeling among the inn
mense ma. .,ority of Canadians is in the Op-
posite direction-that is to say. in favor
of separation from England. The date
of that separation is the secret of history
and will depend very much upon ques-
tiOns Of tariff, fisheries, and others of a
general Importance, concerning. perhaps,
more the relations between Canada and
the United States than the relations be-
tween Canada and England.
''After imperial federation comes the
question of annexation. There is no
doubt a respectable number of Canadi-
ans favorable to annexation. 1t is no
use denying the fact Those who do ii
are either ignorant or hypocrites. AS to
the proportion in favor of the scheme
that question cannot be answered, NO
votes having ever been taken, and there
beng no practical means of ascertaining
public opinion on the subject.
''Then come those who favor indie
pend, n e. l believe they are very
nume,ol is, and that they form the most
important portion from certain points Of
view of our population. They are i'm
portant socially. politically and finan-
eially, and they recruit themselves in a
great part from among the young men
who have naturally more liberal tenden-
cies and a greater disposition for indie
pendence. They are proud to call them
selves Canadians, but would be much
prouder to call themselves so if they
were members of one of the independent
nations of the world. This sentiment
cannot be considered as hostile to En-
gland Or to the English people. Or to the
queen. Canadians are generally satis-
fed with the relations they have had
with England lately,7
Huntsville gazette., 1889-12-28
THE FRENCH CANADIANS.
If They Remain in the Dominion They
Must BE Loyal to England.

If They Remain in the Dominion They
Must BE Loyal to England.
LONDON. Dec. 27.-On the question of
the i'll feeling between the Canadian
French and the English speaking colo
nists it may be taken as settled that the
home governments mind is made up
once for all, 1t is as steadily bent on
anglicizing the Dominion as Emperor
William is determined to make his cap
tured provinces German in fact as Well
as in name. The encroachments will be
gradual but steady, and it will not be
long before the English language will be
the only one recognized in the statute
books and court proceedings of all de-
scriptions.
VIII He Encouraged to Emigrate.
The French Canadians will be en-
couraged to emigrate. and any inclina-
ton they may manifest to make them
selves disagreeable to the authorities,
will be promptly and firmly repressed.
An inkling of this determination must
have reached France for the ma aioritv of
the journals there are very bitter against
England for her .'tyrannicaT' policy
toward all under her sway abroad.
Stanley Is made incidentally ths subject
of great deal of abuse, and The Debats
contrasts the ''mild" course pursued by
France in Africa with the brutal msth-
ods of other nations. which will cause
those who recall the deeds of PilIissier
and Bugeand in Algeria to smile,
