FROM the various changes made
in the appointment OF ministers to
the different chuI hes by the recent
conference, we infer that there
must have been good deal OF
"wirc pulling, 1t really seems
that some ministers are like po!ltl-
clans, ready 10 resortto any meana
that promises TO secure d desirable
appointment. The attackIngof the
character OF a Val seems to have
been resorted TO TO accomplish 4
sinister purpose. There shoaId De-
no ground for such u suspicion, but
still want oI love aud charity may
exist even III rciIs.uAs bodies, Men
are apt 10 be too cGnsoriou, to pro-
mote their own Wishes, and in some
cases stI ain at a Sndt and swallow
a camel Beside professions are

GREAT Britain seems determined
to force our country to abide by the
conditions set forth in the Clayton
Bulwer treaty that is, sooner than
reiinqulsh the right to exercise
authority over the Nicaraugan ca
nal, she will. not permit it to be con-
structed. We do not know what
effect this language will have over
our Congress, but if the canal
should be bulit BY American capital
it is likely our people will contend
that our government should control
it. If this position should be otfen-
sive 10 the peope of Great Britain,
il is not likely their objections will
prevent the operation OF the canal
and the passage 0. vessels through
it on the conditions our Government
may specify. What is right and
polite will be adhered to, and those
who object to such an arrangement!
will have to pat up with the conse-
quences. The United States does
not seek quarrel with Great Brl.
tain, but will not be frightened into
acqulesence 10 Il demand that is
unreasonable and unjust.
