"PEACE ON EARTH AND Coop WILL
AMONG MEN."-In delightful contrast
with the belligerant attitude of our
AdJutant General, who scents battle
from afar and hears the clash of arms
in the gentlest breeze that rustles the
pine-needles, are the words of John p.
Spence, in January Arena, who directs
attention to the fact that there is not
q British soldier along the whole
length of the Canadian frontier. The
garrisoned posts on the Eastern and
Western seaboard, are not there as q
menace to this Or any other nation,
but simply as a guaranty of protection
to her people, duty which all nations
owe to their citizens or subjects. Mr..
S. likewise calls attention to the fact
that in 1S49 Canada repealed all laws
against aliens in the matter of prop
erty holding, and that while Ameri-
cans may freely mine in that country
subject only to the restrictions and
rules of their own people, foreigners
cannot mine in the United States on
terms of equality. The perusal of the
article cannot but remove some ignor-
ance, break down some prejudice and
create holier feeling in the minds of
our people.
