done much to corrupt the American
people, and it might be true, and yet he
be entirely inexcusable for saying it.
And what an ambassador may not say
with regard TO the conspicuous servants
of the people he cannot with propriety
say with regard to their masters, the
people themselves. If Mr.. Bayard were a
novice who had little experience his
lapses from propriety might be pardon
able. But he is gray haired statesman
of calm temperament, who knows per-
feotly well what subjects are proper for
the ambassador to discuss and what to
avoid. His offence therefore is something
worse than carelessness or improperly
even. What he was guilty of apparently
was a deliberate insult to one half at
least of the American people, and while
that may not be an impeacheable otfense
it is one of sufficient gravity for the rep
rescntat1ves of the people to take cogniz-
ance Of Mr.. Bayard can renounce his
allegiance to tho United States, and
then there will be no impropriety in his
pitching into its people or policy as vio-
lently as he sees fit, but as long as he re-
mains one of j is citizens and it's ambas-
sador a decent regard for the proprieties
of his position ought to restrain him
from describing them in language that
reduces them to the level of mob or a

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

Some Unconventional People, by Mrs.
Career. With the unreasoning prejudice
to which even book reviewers are prone,
we confess to taking up the book, A
Strange Career, last season with dislike
to the name of its hero, 81. Gladwyn
Jebb" So trivial was this state of feel
ing that we gave rather more time to the
volume than we should ordinarily do. 1t
proved to be somewhat sensational, GER
tainly strange, but on the whole strik-
ing and entertaining account of 81 career
very far removed from the com mon place.
And now there follows first book,
apart from that biography, by Mrs. Jebb.
A dozen short stories compose its text.
They are stories which show marked
individuality and talent. They are not
very refined but they are clever and orig
inal. Mexico, Cuba and Hayti supply
the locale for these vivacious tales into
which creep not little shrewd wit and
knowledge of human nature. An Incl
dent of Lorgales is as good as Bret Harte.

The New York World has a story to
the effect that Secretary Cariisles report
was ready at the time of the Presidents
message, but was Withheld because the
financial theories of the message were not
sustained by the financial facUs of the
report. The assumption is that before
it is sent to Congress it is to be revised.
and that in order that the President may
know that the revision is properly made
the report will not be sent to Congress
until the President has returned from his

time to look it over

While the Democrats questioned the
sincerity of Mr.. Barrett's impeachment
resolution, while they claimed that Mr.
puryiew Of impeachment proceedings
while they said his statements were true,
not one of them was willing to go on rec
ord as defending the propriety of an
American ambassador making such a
speech as Mr.. Bayard is alleged to have
made. Perhaps one reason was that Bay
ard is little too devoted worshipper of
the President to makes.him persona grata
to the majority of the Democratic mem
bers of the House; but another and more
conclusive one was that no intelligent
defense could be made for him.
In the first place the subjects them
selves in connection with which Bayard
made the remarks complained of were
subjects that an ambassador ought from
their very nature to avoid in public
address. Disputed questions Of public
policy are matters that an ambassador
representing his country at a foreign
court ought to let severely alone, not
merely because it is the only safe and
proper thing to do, but because his in
structions require him to do it. When he
is at home in a private capacity, or even
in an official capacity, he may appear as
the advocate OF certain internal policy
or the attorney of certain party. but
when he goes abroad as the official repre-
sentative Of this government, he has no
business to parade himself as such adyo-
cate or such attorney He is then the
representative of the whole people for
the transaction of certain business be-
tween the country he represents and the
country to which he is accredited and
for the time being he ought to cease to
discuss the internal policy of his country.
The fact that what he says may be true
IS no defense. 1t concerns subject that
ho is forbidden by his position to dicsuss.

which sent him abroad was made I'D Of
