right OF the United States, of their own
sole motion, to restrict for this purpose
the freedom of navigation of Bering sea,
which the United States themselves in
former years convincingly and success
fully vindicated; nor enforce their
municipal legislation against British
vessels on the high seas beyond the limits
of their territorial Jurisdiction.
Her majesty's government is therefore
unable to pass over without notice the
public announcement on the part of the
government of the United States of it's
intention to renew its acts of inter-
ference with British vessels navigating
outside the territorial waters of the
United States, of which they pre-
viously have had to complain. The un.
dersigned, in consequence, is instructed
formally to protest against such inter-
ference, and therefore that her Britain
mic majesty's government must hold the
government of the United States re-
sponsible for the consequences that may
ensue from acts which are contrary to
the established principles of inter-
national law. The undersigned, etc.

LONDON COMMENT.
LONDON, March 27.-The News ap-
proves Lord Salisbury's proposals, but
says the Americans are justly regarded
with disfavor in the proposals tn at
fishery be opened to vessels guarantee
ing damages.
The Chronicle regrets that the cores
pondence will not tend to popularize
arbitration. 1t says: "Mr. Blaine very
cleverly, by a sort of attorneys trick,
put Lord Salisbury in the somewhat
absurd position of consenting to
arbitrate whether we ever had
or have right to. catch
seals on the way to American breeding
waters. We admit that our right is
doubtful. The world would vote US
fools to 90 to war on account,of 25,O00
seals. 1t matters nothing, if President
Harrison does assume an attitude
by rank injustice, but perfectly gro
Blaine detected from the first thei su
preme advantage on his side. His gov
ernment is on the eve OF an election and
can afford to be ridiculous. We cannot" !
The Telegraph says: cat present it
must be confessed that the negotiations
appear to come to a deadlock, not alto
gether devoid of anxiety. On every
ground it is most to be desired that the
arbitrators shall get to work at the
soonest possible moment"
The Times says: lord Salisbury has
proposed several methods to make the
award of the arbitrators retrospective,
all of which have been rejected with |
scant courtesy, and often scant logic, by
the American negotiations. If neither
of the equitable modes which Lord
Salisbury now offers are accepted,
it will be difficult to resist the inference
that America has remarkably little con-
fidence in her case. 1t is difficult to be |
very sanguine IN regard to the disputant |
who failed to take from the imperturb-
able courtesy with which Lord Sails
bury sets aside and ignores the nu-
merous irrelevancies of American di-
plomacy."
The standard Gays: "Lord Salisbury's
dispatch seems to reach the utmost
bounds of concihation. 1t is a plain,
and fair offer which |
America must accept or refuse"

FOUNDED ON A BOOK.

why the Church of Christ Survived the
Dark Ages.
BALTIMORE, March 27.-In the course
of a sermon today by Cardinal Gibbons,
he dwelt upon the reason given by the
Historian Gibbon for the growth and
development of Christianity. Cardinal
Gibbons said, in part: eff the church
survived, it is in obedience to the de-
cree of God, who said: The gates OF
hell shall not prevail against her.
Gamaliel, therefore, was right when he
said: If this work (the church of
Christi be of men it will come to
naught; but if it be of God, you cannot
overthrow it,

Novel Horseback Riding.

When riding by night on the pam.
pas I used to enjoy lying back on the
horse till my head and shoulders rested
on the animals back. My feet were
raised till they pressed against the
horses neck, and in this position, made
by practice safe and comfortable, says
the Naturalist in La Plata, I gazed at
the starry sky, seeing nothing Of earth,
but letting my mind absorb the impress
sion created by the vast circle of the
heavens glittering with innumerable
stars.
To enjoy this method Of riding thor
oughly the rider must have perfect con.
fidence in the sure.footedness of his
horse and the horse must have a SINH
Lar confidence in his rider. The ami
NAL must 60 over level, grassy ground
and at swift harmonious pace. ...F.

A Man Can Marry on l,6OO.

No man has right to get married on
less than 81, 500 a year. At least that
is the conclusion reached the other day
at the close of long discussion on this
subject. Of course that means if the
man is going to take for his bride a
sweet and lovely young woman, who,
while being happily provided for at
home, has not been over-indulged in ex-
travagances, and who has the sense tc
know that she can hardly expect box
at the opera and lots Of diamonds from
the young man who has only so lately
firmly established himself in business.
And even if the gill is one of those who
has known what it is to be out in the
world at work for herself, she can
hardly be expected to marry fellow
who can not do as well for her as she
did for herself. She has managed to
get along beautifully by herself on $50
or $50 month, with plenty of nice,
sensible clothes, trip to the thestsr
now and then, and every summer, or
may be every other summer, a nice lit
tie jaunt away somewhere, to forgot the
little unpleasantnesses of every day Of
flee life. And the way this money was
to go was very nicely settled. tpo$ The
young laan won't be likely to have q
home of his own to take his winsome
bride to, and there is the unfailing call
of the landlord on the first of the

| Architect.
George Meikie Kemp, the architect
of the Scott Monument at Edinburgh,
was a man who raised himself from OBJ.
security by the sheer force of talent and
determination, says Yorta, 9 Compdaiioa.
He had retiring nature and Bhy
and shrinking manner towards strangers.
The habit of handshaking created in
him an embarrassment and aversion
which he could scarcely contreL sand
one of his friends gives an amusing de-.
scriptioD of the manner in which he &C.
complished the deed when fit became
inevitable.
The two were walking along one Of
the streets in Edinburgh in the full
flow of an animated conversation, when
Kemp suddenly became aware of .
friend approaching them from the OPP
posite direction. .a....:s :. tgv
Instantly the current of his thought
was arrested, he lost the thread of con
versation and then he became silent al
together. A whimsically troubled iex-
preston crept over his face and q nsr-
vous commotion developed itself in bis !
manner %i.~' .-'
Extraordinary movements began in
his right hand and arm, which he kept
dangling and jerking backward and for
ward in helpless way, as If he had e d.
tirely lost control Of them. Gradually
the hand appeared to stifen, and ros pc
with the arm until they were at right
angles with the body.
With powerful effort he shot out
his hand and grasped that of the friend
who had approached, and then,. the or
deal passed. with sigh of relief, he
briskly resumed his part of the conver-
sat;on with the air of a man who has
performed an unpleasant but meritori-
GUS action. -...-.+
