IN London.
London, Nov. 12.-Lord Salisbury did
not utter any such sounding phrases at
the lord mayors annual banquet as the
we seek no gold field, we seek no ter
ritory of years ago. His tone was sub
dued, not to say melancholy, but the GU
rious intellectual scorn that forms no
inconsiderable characteristic Of his ora
tory came out in his reply to those who
have been attacking the administration
of the war office. He intimated pretty
plainly that the government was not
going to be hustled into complete over
turn of that department at the bidding
of reforming generals and their follow
ing in the press Reforms might be
needed, but, in plain English. Lord
Wolssley Was a bit of a nuisance.
In other respects his speech Was like
douehe of cold water, and he once
more harped upon the dolefu note of the
Necessity for England TO be prepared
against foreign foes. We are hated. =
Lord Salisbury intimates land may be
attacked at any time. Therefore, we
must hurry up with our trained men and
materials. and, above ALL ships of war.
in order to be ready against no matter
what surprise
This part of the speech sounded rath-
er pitiful at the close of the nineteenth
century, and his lordship exaggerates
somewhat.
Assurealy there seems less danger
now than for many years past of any
attack from our nearest neighbor, and,
altho many Frenchmen may demon
strate their sympathy for Kruger when
he passes thru their country, nothing
viii be done by the French government
to indicate that it means 10 take up his
quarrel. Even in Holland where senti-
ment against us is probably more bitter
than anywhere else on the continent, the
utmost care will be taken to avoid Off
fcial steps calculated to embroil that
country with US.
A dread of war may be said to haunt
the governments of Europe quite as
much az it does the mind of Lord Sails
bury. But he had to make the speech.
and he made 1t with the force and liter
airy grace always conspicuous in his ut
5terances.
