The year 1876 will long be remembered FOR the
number of extraordinary inierna iiona bargains
concluded or negotiated in IT, The most impor-
TAM Of these tn this country was the settlements;
of the Venezuela dispute with Great Britain.
which comprised an amicable arrangement be-
tween Venezuela and Great Britain. the pric-
teal recognition Of the Monroe Doctrine by
Great Britain. and the negoiat ion of perma
nent general arbitration treaty between Great
Britain and the United States That alone
would have made the year memorable. Bui in
addition there were The Russian Emperor's wish
10 France and the open avcwal Of a close ALI
ance between those countries: Frances anneXa-
ton OF Tuns and Madagascar: ltaly's surrcI-
der to Abyssinla: the alliance between Austria
Hungary and Knmana: the practical proie..-
tOTa'e Of Russia over Turkey; and finally. and
one Of the chiefesi of all. The Russo-C hinesc
treaty. which gives Ia Russia substantial con
trol OF the nOTi heasiein provinces Of China.
This lastnamrd treaty indeed is one Of HE
most colossal bargains the world has seen for
many years 4 cynical London writer has said
