Among the intense excitement that ls
pervading the country over the tragic
episode at Havana, an excitemei.t to
which many of the great metropolitan
dailies are adding fuel by the sensational
matter they are printing aud the scre am
Ing editorials they are writing, it is gen
timely refreshing to notice the calm con-
servatism of one CT two of the opinion
making journals of Washington. Nor
Tor on moment have they allowed them
selves to be thrown CT their balance,
and not one word have they uttered in
the haZy uncertainty that wells everything
connected with the disaster, that could
be construed into an attempt to inflame
unduly the minds Of the people of this
country. And yet, when the veil is lifted
which now .ohscures everything, and it

belongs, there will be none quicker to es.

trenchant pen give utterance to opinions
