HE OTGHT no HAVE RESIGNED

The Democratic papers OF New-Jersey and
other States are shedding compliments like
sunshine upon Chancellor McGill for what
they style his disni1ed attitude in the can

they say. TO 60 down into the thick Of

transitory vanlties Of Gubernatorial election,

cellor probably winks his other eye In the proud
consciousness that by merely sitting still he can
attend strictly to the business Of the campaign,
and much more effectively, too than any Of the
boys.
Chancellor McGill knows well that so long as
he holds on TO his seat he yields power COM

THE MONROE DOCTRINE IN VENEZUELA

There will be no war between this country and
Great Britain over the Venezuela business. Or
that we may be confident The cuckoos in their
little nests are chirpng piteously, as though
there were a real. live hawk In sight But they
don't count The smallfry British Jingoes. too,
are struttlng about rampageously, filling the
mir with wild and whirling words. They would
like Of course TO wipe the whole Yankee Nation
from the face OF the earth, and are holding them
selves back from It only by most prOdigious
effort You can see them sweat and strain and
hear their Joints crack as they laboriously reprcss
the impulse TO let themselves loose upon us.
Rut neither do they count seriously. They no
more represent the sober sense OF England than
the cuckoos do that Of America Worse diff
culties than this have arisen between the two
countries. and have been settled peacefully, II
not always Justly This one also WILL no doubt,
be settled peacefully; whether justly or not de-
ponds upon the sense and backbone Of our State
Department. A little firm. dlgnifed and saga
cious diplomacy Is all that is needed.
The rantngs Of some Of these hot gospellers
Of the minor British press are. however, so
comical as TO deserve at least passing notice.
They add far more 10 the gayety of nations than
they are likely TO detract from the peace OF the
world. Here, for example, is the evening organ
