There he found a most gracious re.
ception awaiting him from the aunt,
and shy one from the invalid. She
looked very charming among her gay
cushions, and seemed to be suffering
from nothing more serious than an in
convenient color, which came and
went unaccountably. ....
At length, when her aunt was called
away, she burst out impetuously:
Can you forgive me, Mr. Potter, for
my horrid behavior even since
came?-yes, planned it all deliberate
ly to punish you for your silly pride
but it was silly, now wasn't it," she
pleaded.
Potter was on his knees at her side.
Alice, can you love me? Will you
wait and let me work for you? I
will, indeed, will be worthy of you?"
There was a moment OF silence;
then, from among the cushions where
she had hidden her face came the
answer in muffled tones: Perhaps

THE INCIDENT AT KINGSTON.

Surprise and regret will be generally felt In
this country, as they are felt and freely ex-
pressed in England, at the circumstances of the
sudden departure Of our ships and their COM
panies from Kingston. There had been, mingled
with compassion for the stricken colony of a
sister nation, q genuine sense of qualification In
our being able. because of the accident of prox-
Unity, 10 do something for the alienation Of
distress before 1t was possible for relief TO
come the greater distance from Great Britain
or Canada. In that there was there could
have been, no thought but that of doing our
utmost, with all possible expedition, for the
succor of those whose need was great and ur-
gent. and we quite sure that the mind and
heart Of the American nation were in full
measure with Admiral Davis In what he did at
Kingston, just as have no doubt the British
nation would approve the doing of a like work
by a British admiral in a like case In which
Americans were the sufferers.
IT, in his generous zeal 20 relieve the suffer
ing and to meet the all but universal desires Of
the authorities and people OF Kingston, Admiral
Davis had in any respect ignored the formal
requisites OF strict international etiquette
there is no indication, and certainly there is no
charge that he did sO-the fact would be regret
table But still more should we have TO regret
that the Governor of Jamaica did not regard
the spirit of the deed rather than his own sus-
ceDrDlllIleS, or IMAM some mere lec0nlcdllIy OF
procedure which il might be well enough for
Journalists TO sickle over in times Of tranquil
ease, but which should surely not be magnified
into n barrier between sore suffering and
prompt relief. We must, OF course, make due
allowance for the great strain under which Sir
Alexander Swettenham was placed and the agi-
tation OF mind from which he may have suf-
fered in the presence OF an overwhelming catas-
trophe, and we shall be glad 10 believe that his
amazing letter 10 Admiral Davis while 1t left
the latter no alternative but to depart immedi-
ately from Kingston and from Jamaican waters,
was not deliberately intended to receive the
construction which might naturally be put
upon IT,
Americans might, indeed. be we'll content TO
dismiss the unhappy incident with no other
comments than those which have been made
upon it by the most representative and author
itative opponents of opinion in England. There
has been no misunderstanding in that country
Of our navy's actions motives, nor does there
appear any inclination TO cast upon America IN
any way the Onus for the disagreement which
brought our disinterested services in Jamaica
TO an abrupt end. There is, of course no pos
sible ground for magnifying the incident into
international Significance or at least into any
other significance than that of emphasizing
anew the sincerity of the mutual confidence and
esteem which unite the two countries. Assured
that our representative acted as this nation
wished him TO act, we may leave the action of
the British representative to be judged by his
own nation.
