Hundreds Of visitors were aboard the
City Of Perth Sunday and all were much
interested in the different sights on this
bic freight carrier. The Hind0ostanese
sailors formed the center Of attraction
Small Of stature swartny Of complexion,
closely Elaven heads and faces, they pre-
scented a peculiar appearance. Quartered
away aft, in a mess by themselves, they
live and cook and eat separate from the
rest Of the ships crew. One would
scarcely care to take THANKSGIVING dinner
with them, although they are said to live
well. There is another caste Of Oriental
natives quartered aft. who live separate
and distinct from the others. The Perth
win probably sail today for St. vincenrs.

1t is worthy of notice that the treasury
receipts under the Dingley law for the
second month of it's existence are
greater than were the receipts the
second month under the Wilson Law.
This is the more surprising, in view OF
the cocksure criticisms Of the laws OPP
ponents, because imports had been held
back to take advantage of the Wilson
law and were poured in after it's pass
age, whereas they We're poured in be-
fore the Dingley law went into effect
and consequently have greatly fallen
off since. Within a year those organs
that now term the Dingley law deficit
measure will be complaining of sur
plus. It's hard to satisfy those who
won't be satisfied.

The present legislative chamber Is con-
sentative and a Liberal ministry can
do little without Liberal majority in
the Cortes to support it. Whether this
will be possible or not no one appears
to feel quite confident. 1t is said that
there is little if any real public senti-
ment in Spain other than what the po-
litical leaders make. There is, how
ever, a good deal of uneasiness over
the CONSUMPTION of the Spanish lads for
the wars which bring no glory either to
Spain or to her warriors.
Sagasta is not an amateur, however,
