PARTIES IN POLITICS.
London, Sept. 2o-Responding at a Scottish
non partisan gathering, 10 the presentation to
him Of the freedom of Haddington East 10th
ian near his birthplace, to-day Prime Minis
ter Balfour said the subordinate patriotism of
Scotchmen for Scotland not only does not mill
tate against their larger patriotism for Great
Britain but is of the most valuable quail
ties of British subjects, however heterogeneous
throughout the empire. ar Bafour said he
considered the personal friendliness between DO
litical opponents in Great Britain as contrasted
with the enmitY between partisans in some
other countries to be due TO some natural mod
err. ton in our British blood that enables us TO
be political enemies without attributine every
Infamous motive 10 those TO whom we are OBJ
posed.
In the course of his remarks Mr. Balfour said
also. Il find myself able to bear with toIera bile
philosophy the accusations made south of the
Tweed that l the unexpected enemy of civil
and religious liberty.

hapS with the best OF grace. Miss Gilis rea-
for the disapproval of the plan that there

production, although Adolphe Cohn. the university
professor of French, had such fault to find
Miss Gill ested that in lieu Of the French play
there be some other entertainment. None, however
took place. There an exchange of public letters
between the French societies. The Barnard
