The Alaskan Boundary.

lii my last annual message referred
to the pending negotiations With Great
Britain in respect to the Dominion of
Canada. BY means Of an executive
agreement a Joint high commission had
been created for the purpose of adjust

twelve subjects. among which Mere the
questions OF the fur seals, the fisheries
of the coast and contiguous inland
waters, the Alaskan boundary the
transit of merchandise in bond, the all

respecting naval Vessels in the great

tor ia watched and commented upon.
Nothing is too sacred for the prying
eyes and voluble tongue of one who, to
satisfy mis- morbid craving. INDUCES in
SANDER, vituperatiOn and calumny of
the ministry.
ST. Paul tells US who busy bodies are,
when, in his first epistle to Timothy,
he censures those who ''go about from
house to house, and are not only idle,
speaking things which they ought
not"
It is noticeable that the busy bodies
St. Paul censures were women: and
though there are, indeed, busy bodies
among men, we must infer from the
apostles language that the offense is
one to which women were peculiarly
liable-recognizing. as we say this, her
special loyalty, as a class, to the cause
of Jesus Christ.
The reasons most probable are.
first, that there is far more social in
! tercourse among women; more room
for mischievous gossip. Again, from
the general character of their educa-
ton. they are more limited in the
choice of topics. The range of sub
jects for conversation is narrowed
down, and special tendency toward
personal topics developed.
UQQ6r 6uCQ circumstances Ii re-
quires great watchfulness to restrain
tie tongue from biting, particularly as
woman's speech flows with an ease all
her own. This we say from no dis
position to make q vulgar hit at her
so called loquacity. Women are en-
dowed with peculiar sensitiveness to
impressions and facility in throwing
them off, the ground of that duency
which Lane call her reproach. But
this sensitiveness Is one Of her noblest
gifts.
What shipwreck is often made of
noble natures and lovely lives by the
bitter mind and dead salt water of
SANDER. So easy to say thing. and
yet so bard to disprove, throwing on
the innocent all the strain of proving
their innocence, and Furnishing them
as guilty If unable to pluck out the
fsngss of @the serpent. Gossip. SLAM

deadliest weapons man hss:: ever forged
