GREAT BRITAIN.

This war which Is now engaging the attention of practically the ell tire civilized world to the exclu sion ot all other matters except as they are acceT3ories thereto is re- markable for nothing more wonder lul than the power that Great Britain is displaying after over three rCa,s Cf war, ard the attitude ot admiration or of nate manifest ed in many sections Of tha world to tha' eXtr. ordinary conslomera' tiop known as the British Empire
 Nor can i, be denied that as men favo~ or disfavor the entry of the United States into this war, they lrc animated more or less bl their likes or dislike. their admiration or their hate. of Great Britain.
 Quite a large section of the Irish population in America is unaEte to econcile itself to supporting wal which is manifestly to be carried on in alliance with the detested Sas- senact. while On u e other rand the enthusiasm which this war es' cited in innumerable quarters Was provoked by the Anglomaniacs in the nations midst. and who saF in the cause of Great Britain the cause Of Freedom and DemocrScy everywhere

 Assuredly that is true of Grea Britain, and assuredly also tie req facts of that nations attributes and characteristics will be fom( no, in those things discovered b, the nations or the men who admire it to excess, nor in those things tC which men who hate and despis Great Britain point the finger o sc0rn and lOathing.

 Possibly indeed in no other "a ton are these antithetical attribute n I,rf Nain. so that in observing facts a 10 the dominance of Great HIitaN m India and Ireland, facts 90 ter rihle, SO cruel and so t"ran'1ctl one may easily forget that 1t wa in Great Britain that modern demo crocy had it's birth; that while th rest of the world lay prone in tn agonies of serfdom, the British yer dragging magma ehartas rom ie luctart kings and embattled farm CTS withstood the Stuart tyrannie against their fields and homes lon bcfore the New Engl2nders Tough the House of Hanover. The pecul jar methods of British diplomac have become synonimous with dc ceit and earned for that natio from the less unscrupulous Trenc the title of perfide Albion, get thos very things are likely to make pel sons. concerning them, forge that the decds of daring of Britis captains on sea and on shore hay
