England md the Paris Exposition
From the London Times

From the London Times.
At the close of the exhibitions held in
the sixties and seventies British manufac-
turers were often heard to grumble, why
should we take to Paris, Berlin or Vienna
our best goods and reveal to foreigners
our methods and processes? We sell few
articles. but we teach others to initiate
and In due time compete with u.s." These
reflections have now little weight. We
have as much to learn as to teac.. We
have to think as we never before lad of
keeping old customers and attracting new;
and We shall be the losers If there be
supineness in regard to an exhibition which
promises to surpass all its predecessors in
size and splendor. Germany, our principal
rival in many markets, has voted quar-
ter Of million, and apparently Is prepared
to give more. Switzerland has allotted a
fund of $4,000. Most countries, great and
small, have promised their support; and If
we do not put forth our full strength the
result cannot fail to be injurious.

From the Hartford Courant.

This is a good time for the sound money
men Of the country to get shoulder to
shoulder on the proposition that any future
war Of the United States-if war must be-
shall be fought from start to finish on the
gold basis. That Is the only safe basis. In
war or peace, and it is also by far the
cheapest. If war should come, there would
be an immediate cutlery from the imitation
lists for the starting up Of the old govern
ment paper money mills. The Americans
who know better should be ready to with
stand and defeat 1t.

despair was tempered with a certain
lofty scorn.
On the following Saturday arrived
the new minister, prepared to officiate
for the first time in the parish. He
was youngish man, with red hair
and beard, and very pink complexion,
but his manners were unassuming and
good natured. His wife and family, he
explained, were about to follow him in
about ten days; and in the meantime
his furniture and other chattels were
coming on by train. Shown over the
manse by Solomon, he expressed no
little asto lishment at finding only two
or three rooms furnished, and those
very barely.

his face, as Mr.. Freeland OBLIGATED
