and giving to its readers from week
to week, brief account of their ex-
perionce and advantages, being sure
such "reminiscences would make very
interesting reading. Upon suggest
ing it to one who took an honorable
part in the great struggle to preserve
the union, he said he thought the
present generation had lost interest
in the subject, and would not care to
read an account of their exploits. In
this we are sure he is wrong, for the
American people can never be indiff-
erent to the dangers, hardships and
priyations endured by those who
fought for the preservation of the
union. We probably will, if those
who can furnish the facts are com
municative, take the matter up later.

charm of the middle e with the COM

The Limits of Arbitration.

With international arbitration we
confess to having comparatively little
sympathy. If nations mean to fight,
nothing will prevent their 80 doing, and
agreements to arbitrate will be of very
little service. The suggestion of an
agreement between England and the
United States to establish a permanent
machinery for regulating TIER disputes
is, however, quite different. Nations in
whom the same racial characteristics
are to be found, who are influenced BY
the same ideas, who talk the same lam
guage. read the same books and possess
the same political traditions, are capable
of making an agreement to settle dis
putes by arbitration a reality.
Again, an agreement not to fight till
the question in dispute has been referred
to a body exercising the functions of a
court Of law is a step in the direction Of
that alliance between the United States
and England which, we trust and be-
lieve, is the destiny Of the two countries.
If we begin by an acknowledgment that
we are not in the position of foreign
powers. e., liable to war at any mo-
incentive may soon rise to a definite
FACT alliance, and lastly to that declare
ton of a common citizenship which would
prevent any Englishman from being an
alien in America or any American being
an alien in England and would heal the
breach in the unity Of the race caused by
the folly Of George LII and his ministers.

Peculiarities of the siamese.

From DemOreSt tdInlly Magazine.
The wealthy Siamese, including the
king, practically turn night into day. All
important political meetings are neld in
the night, and 4 o'clock in the morning is
the hour at which Bangkok fashionables
retire until o'clock the succeeding after
noon. There is a semi-European theater
in Bankok, which was erected by one of
the present kings predecessors, and there
are plenty of outdoor theatrical perfor-
mances by natives. the Siamese being a
pleasure-loving people and fond of all sorts
of entertainments.
The worst thing that can happen to a
man in Siam is to get into debt, from
which there is never any escape, owing to
the exorbitant interest charged. Once in
debt, there is no appeal, the debtor beng
stripped of his clothes and compelled to
work in letters, generally for the rest Of
his life, to pay interest
Drunkards are not permitted to give ev-
deuce in the law courts of Siam.
The Buddhist priests, clad in yellow
robes, are to be seen everywhere in Bang
kok: and it is quite common for young
men to enter the priesthood, which affords
them an easy and luxurious existence, Ow-
ing to the Iberality of the populace to-
