This measuse guarantecs to farmers comyensation for eush per- manent Improvements as they may make on thelr holdings, and provides for arbitration as a means of settling dieputes between them and their landlords, Power ls glven to " roferee to determine the increased renting value of land made y the tenant's improvements and to provent unjust evictions, The bill also providen ihat the power to dia- train for rent shall be limited to one school funds which woe now have, owlng to the operation of high lisense, why Omal schools should not excel those of any clvy of Its alze fond of posing than of exposing the shameful frauds by which the country has beon robbed of its domain, Mooby and Saukey have arrived in the United States and are prepared to attack Bob Iogersoll.

Millions upon millions of Britlsh capital have found a safo and profitable investment in the Unlted States durlog the last ton years and the {oflax still continues, If our wildeat securities and rockless mansgement of railroads have firight. ened the oapitallsts ¢ f Lombard street, our magulificent cattle ranges and boundless wheat lauda are daily grow fog In fuvor. Among our western cattlo kings we already boast of sovoeral glish noblemen, The Dake of Satherland, Eirl Dunraven, that enthusiastic sportsman, the Earl of Alrllic and others are largely interested in Colorado, Wyoming and Montana ranges. Mr. Labouchere, of the London 7ruth; Barlug Bros., the famous bankers; Sir Thomas Drassey, and other milllonalres have large lu- tereats in the west and Mr. Hawpdon Whalley Is vow here locking after land iuvestments in T Toxas where fath. or and son propose to purchase several hundred thousand of acres for cattle ralsing, “‘The grand tour" on the in the ocuntry. While we are on educational matters wo deslre to allude brlefly to a sobject which we would have been glad to have passed over in sllence. We refer to the matter of excessive corporal punishment In St. Barnabas church school, presided over by the Rev. John Willlams, On facts presonted to us by partles entlrely outside «f the de- nomination, an article appeared In our lecal columna, two weeks ago, which treated of an ocourrence of common notoriety, Tnere has been no denial of the slmple facts as stated, viz: that soveral boys have been very severely beaten; that Mr. Willlams felt obliged to oponly dlscuss the subjeot from the pulpit, and that he tendesed his realg- nation, In order to secure an endorse- ment of what he called his “‘method of dlsclpline.;’ If the oase alluded to had been an lsolated one, if the boy then punished who, from all accounts, richly merited dlsclpline of some klnd, had been the only popll so treated, the matter would have been passed over in sllence as posseasing no partloular public In- tereat. But very unwisely, as It seems to us, one of the teachors of the school has rushed Into print and assailed our statement as groundless and mallolous. It Ia therefore due to curselves to e that the severlty of corpcral punish- ment In St. Barnabas school has long been a matter of comment, that it has been earnestly protested sgalust by patrons of that establishment; that soveral ohildren have boen withdrawn from the school In consequence, as we understand; that In & number of In- atances parents have expostulated with Mr. Willlams over permitting elther his tomper or a misgulded sense of daty to get the better «f his dlscretion in maitsrs of dlsolpline and that the effecct of the exhibtions upon other ohildren had been exolting, and bad to the last degroo, It ls an exploded idea that the rod Is the best schoolmaster. A well disolplined teacher can always ouforce disolpline withou: assuming the functlons of a slave, driver, and whero Instances do occur fn which physloal sorce seems the only remedy, 1t 1s much better for both teacher and scholars that Incorrigible puplls should be removed. The proper place for a boy who Is amenable to nothing but brate force is the reform school. We say this In all kludness to the princlpal of St. Barnabas school whom we bellove to be a high minded and a conscteationa man actuated by what he belleves to be a high sense of daty. But hia ideas of disclpline are none the leas mistaken on this account. OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. The week which has elaped since the declslve defeat of the Gladstone government on the aflirmation bill has only brought fresh evidences of the deolining inflaence of the minlatry. The spell of thulr eucoess ts broken and & few months at the most will de- termine the tenure of thelr power, The fallure of the premier to seoure the pas- sage of the sffirmation bill was due to & Tory-Whig Nonconformist-Catholle coslition, Another defeat was scored on Tuesdsy in the withdrawal of the proposition to penston Lords Wolseley and Alcester, aud to continue the an- nual grant to thelr heirs male. The outery agalnat saddling the natlon with two additional snd perpetasl ponsioners was too strong lstry and Mr, Gladst was compelled to anno; or tho min. 0 Ry rdtugly co that each of the heroes of the Egyptlan war would be glven a lump sum of money instead. This fs practically a second defoat and Is due tothe Radical op- position, which wing of the Liberal party alone stood firmly by the govern- ment in thelr misfortune of last week. The weakuess of its opponents alone provents the immediate fall of the Iiberal party, but slgns of its wanlng continent Is becoming scarcely as pop- * ular as & tour on the grandest coutin- ent on the globe where In conneotlon with an endless varloty of scenery, business may be profitably combined with pleasure, power are as cloar as they were In 1808 when the Irish university bill falled. If the conservatives felt sure of thels posltion on any of the pend- ing lesues or If the lmpending alllance with the whigs which must come yoar, and It Is evident that tho meas- ure I8 Intended as a concesslon to the radioal wing of the llberal party, which has ot late grown very restive under the domination of the territor- ial lords who have su large a share in shaplng English legialstion, Vodis- mayed by his recent defeat over the sfficmation bill and by the threats that many old whigs will combine with the torles to defeat the bill, M Gladstone announces that he will make the acceptance of the blll a question of the confidence felt in the minletry, The tory land »wners will fight the tenant farmera’ bill to the bitter end, and look for much outslde stance. The nows from Ireland ls a mona- tonous recitsl of new tri d fresh oconvictlons of consplrators againat the noclety and the crown. The oonfes- sion of Delaney as oxpected paved the way for a speedy conviotlon of Timothy Kelley on his third trial. Mullet, convicted of consplracy to murder, has boen sentenced to penal servitude for life and In consideration of his ploa of guilty, Delaney's sen- tence of death has been commauted. For three weeks past, no agrarian murder has been reported and the fron hand of coerclon seems at last to have proved cffuotive in suppressing crlmo. Negotiation for the extradi- tlon of Tynan, Walsh, and Sheridan aresald to have been quletly progress- ing'and a test case tn the United States courts may shortly be expected. The troaty uun(u{l upon the judges and maglatrates 8f the two governments farlsdiotion and authority, upon com- pisint mate under oath, to lesue a warrant for the apprehension of the fagltive, that he may be brought be- fore the jndge or maglatrate, to the end that the evidence of oriminality may be heard and considered, and if, on such hearing, the evidence is found sufficlent to sustain tho charge, It shall bethedaty of the examining judge or maglstrate to certify the same to the proper exccutiveauthority in order that & warrant of extradition may is- While our authorities will see that all who are accused in connection with the party of assassination in Ire- land are enabled to avsil themselves of whatever rights the treaty gives them, it may be accepted as certain that our government will do all that it oan properly be oslled upon or ex- pected to do to show Lis detestation of the crimes which are now countenaced by some of the Irish socletles abroad, =In Germany the government and the reichatag soem rapidly to be drift— ing Into cooflict. On Taeeday Bla- march’s pet moheme of a blennfal budget was defeatod by a reterence of the subject to a commlssion. This offootually blocks any further considera- tlon of the matter untll the winter sesslon, If & second remdlog of the bill {s secured at all 1t will not be until after Whitsuntide recees, This result is directly opposed to the wishes of the emperor, who throw all the welght of his powerful influence in the scale to force an early passage of the blll. The rejection of the government bill to Increase the duty on wood is chicfly noticeable as showing the strength of the opposition and the urgent necessi- ty which exerts cn the part of the ohauncellor to weaken the opposition by a new coalitlon recruited from the discordant factlons, The loss of Prince Blemarck's influence s ohletly amorg the oclericals though the ultramontane party sl glves an unwilling adhesion to his polioy in the hope of fresh conceasions towards the church., Those once tained the chancellor can no longer rely upon Oatholio support in the relohstag, Knowing this, llke Rlch- elien he holds out hopes of the future as an Ipcontlve to a loyalty which would falter the moment the hopes were realized. Garcis Oalderon, the ex-president of Peru, has pleaded his privileges as s prisoner of war in suswer to a subjena from s Chillan court requlr- fog him to testify In a trlal turning upon the alleged illogal fssue of bank notes while ho was chlef executive of ’orn.

Horation of Dateh obstinacy, there will noed to be patience and longsuffer- fng on the part of shareholders In South Afr!can banks, Affalrs in France appear to be drift- Ing quietly along but thero is a deep undercurrent of dlstrust, political and economical, which is spparent to close observers, The army 1s now at its full force of + 2,600,000 able bodied men, regularly ed out for tealning, of whom 1,161,000 are effactive for {mmediate action, Forty-five vessels are In course of constructicn at the French navy yards, of which twenty-four are first- class {ron clade. It is no doubt due to the knowledge of the forces avall- able In t'me of war tnat Inspired the firm reply cf the minister of forelgn affairs to the Inquiry of the Dac de Broglle as to France's intentlons with reference to the triple alllance France cherlshed, he sald, ne prospects of aggression, but neither had it any rea- son to fear the consequences of unpro- voked attack. Meanwhile plans of ocolonial conquest are fillingthe French mind, In Asla Torquin s to be placed under French rule, and In Africa the mouth of the Corgo, Mill tary prowees s less difficult abroad than at home and the army will be employed In small campaigna outside of France untll euch . tinie as It is needed to repel forelgn invaston or to lead the way to & re-corquest of the lost provinces on the Rhine. Tt would certainly wseem that the best thing the Hawalian government can do is to retire from businss and put lts effocts Into the hands of a receiver. It appears that two months agp the treasury had only & beggarly £35,917 in It, When the present cabi- net came into office, some tine months ago, the treasury contained $150,000 The first thing they did was to bor- row $160,000 more, and conelderably over $400,000 was taken in customs recelpte, $400,000 was collected for taxes, $200,000 for licenses and $50,- 000 more was made up out of sundry recelpts. It coets the government in the nelghborhood of $30,000 a month for salaries, and the most important sources of revenue are the duties, fines and penalties, No wonder the Pall Mall Gazette calls Ki aus ‘‘a semi-barbarous ohief,” him with Cetewayo, and advises him to stsy at home hereafter, as he cannot learn anything by travel: The United Stabes ought to take the Sandwich Tslands to keep them out of the sher- iff s hands. Siberla now ranks only barely below the United States and Australia as a gold produclog country. The best Rueslan authorieties think its mines will yleld nexrly or quite $20,000,000 worth of the metal this year, and the out.put is steadlly increasing. The great mineral richness of that land of cold and convicts offers some encour- agement to those who belleve ln Alaeka's underground wealth, The difficalties cf location and climate will hinder mining on the Yukon little, if any, more than on the headwaters of the Lena and the Amoor. No less than forty-slx vessels are in course of constructlon for the Fronch navy. Of theso thirty-one are bullding In government yards and fifteen by private firms, Fcurteen bf theso vessels are {ronclad, represent- ing a value of §25,200,000. A well known foreign correspndent, M. Ivan de Wolstyne, who will repre- sent several papers at the coronatlon, writes that the ceremontes will extend over nine days at St Petorsburg and sixteen days at Moscow. Ia the Iatter city householders are already seking 3,000 roubles (about §2 260) per fort- night for a sulte of fouror tive rooms.
