The new route to Boston is nnoOmmonly in
teestinp because it recalls the fact that when
the present main line of the Long Island Rail
road was built, some time in the forties, 1T
was designed for the speedy transportation OF
neonle between New-YOrk and Boston. Pas
sengers were then carried on Long Island as
far rs tireenport, and thence taken by boat to
Stoninpton, at which point rail travel was re-
sumed. Mr. Corbin is not entitled 70 claim
originality for his scheme; but with his ability
and resources no will be likely to make it d
success whereas the old route to Boston by
Long Island did not prove popular, and was
abandoned after few years. just now 1t Is
interesting to note that the late Hannibal Ham
lin travelled by this route on his first trip from
Maine to Washington. The carrying-out OF Mr.
Corbins plan will be an important step in the d.
,ection of making Brooklyn railroad terminus,
in accordance with Mr. Wimans predictions, al
though no such scheme as this was included
in the project which he lately outlined. There
is significance in the circumstance that Mr.. Cor
bin's plan is brought forward now, in spite OF
the probability that the contemplated railway
bridge across the East River at Blackwells
Island may be built.

BLAINE'S YORK AS SECRETARY OF

From all that have been able to learn in regard to
our state affairs the final Disappearance Of Mr. Blaine

he has pursued more conservative and patriotic
course IN the State Department since 1859 than he

with his diplomatic work during the present Admins

state he had, during the last two years. laid the
foundation for half dozen foreign wars, and that his
whole course had been characterized by all his old
time crOokolness and dupncty Public interests have
been constantly subOrdnated TO private Interests, and
the usual pains have been taken TO fool the people
about the work that Blaine has been doing. Harrison
himself Will have no cause 10 regret Blaines disap-

upon the state Department since Blaine fell III, and
has found that 1t will pay him 10 examine with the

IlfPERLAL EEUERATION.

Sir Charles TupperS approval of the I'M
peral Federation scheme is difficult to reconcile
with his reputation as q prudent, practical poll
tician. If it is anything, it is an attempt to
commit the Tory party in Canada 20 the widest
political fantasy that has ever succeeded In get
ting itself talked about. The great effort Of
Sir John Macdonald was to prevent the dis
cussion of change. Not only did he thrust I'm
perial Federation into the piSts but he grimly
insisted that there should be no consideration
whatever of any plan involving a new consti-
tuition. We are free TO say that we do not sup
pose if would have been possible for aay Of Sir
Johns Canadian contemporaries to succeed as
he did in enforcing this autOcr0tic decree. Even
less possible is it that they should now succeed
even were they 70 undertake his policy. And
yet the nearest possible approach to that policy
is assuredly their wisest plan. If they cannot
prevent agitation On the part OF their supporters
they should at least refrain from it themselves
No plan for the future can be brought up with
out bringing up all the rest. Imperial Fedora
ton cannot be suggested by the Tory leaders
without provoking Liberal movements for indie
pendence and annexation.
This is 80 obvious as TO make the conclusion
necessary that in Sir Charles TupperS judgment
the time for action has come, or that 1t should
be speedily drawn on. Only two proposals, OF
course, can come from one who aims to keep
Canada subject to England. He must either in
sist on the maintenlnce OF the Dominion as II
is or he must cry out for Federation. The fact
that Sir Charles Upper has chosen the latter
course is highly significant. Under Sir John
iron decree he has boasted vOciferously OF the
stability of the Dominion Constitution. In all
MS recent campaign speeches he declared that
no change was necessary or desirable. He pro-
fessed himself delighted with the fruits of Con
federation, and satisfied that it had still a
golden store in reserve. The utter insincerity
of all this is now demonstrated. Sir Charles
Turner's ambition TO be the ruler of Canada
is the most conspicuous thing about him. That
he would prefer TO be little fish in an ocean
if he thought it possible to become a sturgeon
in mill pond is unbelievable. His new de-
partnre is a confession that he considers the
days of the Dominion as at present organized
to be already numbered and that he thinks

FROM sRooKLYy TO BOSTON BY RAlL.

From BKOOhLIN ~ Doo1"-' DA MAIN
The establishment of direct railroad connec-
ton between Brooklyn and Boston, in accord
ance with the authoritative announcement by
Mr. Corbin which was printed in The TRIBUNE
on Saturday will prove both interesting and
imnortant. There seems little doubt that the
nlan proposed will DO carried into effect. This
means new route toiBostOn, if not from New
York. at least from Brooklyn, and direct com
netition with tho New-Haven Railroad, which
has long enjoyed practical monopoly of travel
in This direction. Tho idea is to run fast trains
from Brooklyn to Oyster Bay, carry them across
the Sound on big floats, and then send them
uost haste ID Boston over the lIousatonlc and the
New-Yorx and New England Railroad. The run
ming time is calculated to be about the Same as
from the Grand Central Station. but to Brook

The experience Of the latest diamond thief may

suffer from dishonest saesmen. The jewellers have
a peculiar habit of ertrusing precious stones val

mere boys, and who are frequently unable to WIN
stand the temptation of possessing such valuable
articles. The system shows surprising fnltn IN
human nature, which IS not always Justified. DC
casonany young man steals valuable lot OK
diamonds and pawns them. II he is arrested the
pawnbrOkers are compelled to give up the Jewels
and then the diamond brokers unite in recommend

man who stole diamonds worth $4,000 ana
