Responsibility That Sobers.

1t is related of Lincoln, when some
fervid enthusiast urged him to some
act that involved serious consequences,
mat he told his friend to go back to
his hotel and reflect upon the action
and its consequences seriously, and if,
after such consideration, he would take
the responsibility of urging the presi-
dent to take the course suggested, the
latter would follow his counsel. The
friend did not come back the next day
nor the next month, and when he came
it was to admit that his views changed
When weighted with responsibility for
the consequences of action. This in
cident, whether real of not, illustrates,
what all history corroborates, the So
oering effects Of responsibility. There
is wide space between judgments of
the man or men who, confident of what
they would do were they in the place of
the man or men who must do and take
the consequences. and OF those same
men when some mutation of conditions
has put upon them the power to act
and the responsibility for the act
While it is the fact that the constitu-
ton vests in the congress power to de-
been universally the case that the
movements that led up to the
point of open hostilities have been
guided by the president and his advis-
ers. 1t is they who have conducted the
correspondence, made the remonstran-
ces. proposed the terms, and, finally,
reached the ultimate point where d.
plomacy fails and force takes it's place.
1t is this fact and the habits of thought
bred of it that have made the country
look to the president as the sole arbi-
ter of peace or war, and it is his reali-
cation of this attitude that has made
him act as if the responsibility for Ell
ther rested upon him instead of upon
! congress. 1T is this, too, that has made
so many members of congress unre-
strained in expression of hostile pur-
pose. They have assumed that re-
| sponsibility for war and it's results
| rested upon the shoulders of the ex-
| ecutive instead of upon their own.
Now, however. if Washington advices
are to be relied upon, the president
feels that he has reached the end of the
diplomatic tether, and will send a mes
sage to congress that VIII throw upon
the houses of congress the RESPONSE
bility of final action. Under the sober
ing effect of the immense weight Of
this duty we may expect to see the
rancorous element subs:de and the con-
sentative element assume guidance;
enthusiasm cool and conservatism
warm UP, and a temperate attitude
| taken, one avoiding the recklessness

peace any price policy Of the Hales

LONDON, April 4.-There was a
scene in the house of commons today
ON the acknowledgment by the first lord
of the admiralty, Mr. Goschen, that q
seaman belonging to the British first
class battleship Resolution, had been
sentenced to a fortnight's confinement
in a cell and to be deprived of his good
conduct badge, for wearing the sham
rock on st. Patrick's day in disobed-
fence to orders.
Mr.. Goschen explained that it was a
matter of discipline, whereupon Will
liam Redmond, Parnellite member for
East Clare. hotly replied to Mr.. Gas
chen, and was called to order by the
speaker, who declared that his con-
duct was grossly disorderly
Mr.. Redmond said that at the risk of
being grossly disorderly, he must de-
nounce as an outrage the sentencing of
sailor to a fortnight's Imprisonment
for wearing a shamrock.
The speaker then called upon Mr..
Redmond to withdraw, but Mr.. Red
mond did not leave his seat until the

followed that officer out of the house,
repeating: 1T is an outrage"
