ROTES AND COMMENTS

—The Guardian explains that the etate- ment esto the mail service across the strait, to which our correrpondent “Merch- ant” and ethers took exception, wae pre~ pared by Mre Horace Harzard at its solicitation, sad that its object wae “simply and purely to supply the facts in relation to that service.”

—The people of Wrangle, end some other Alarka pvinte are reported to be anxious that their territory should be an nexedto Canada. They think they have more to hope for materially from being « part of Canada thas by remaining ueder, the Stare and Stripes. They would also have a quicier time.

—The Londen Chronicle declares thet the European powers ever siace Germany's deaent upon Kiao-Choe Bay have bees playing ® shameless game of grab. The United States ie the only sation that bas not taken part in the game. It the mations concerned do not copfer betimes and ar- rive at a reaeooable and stable understand- ing there will be war sooneror la'er. The paper calls on Parliement to compel Lor Salisbury to gve an account of the British policy.

—The Guardian seems to be quite happy and contented with itsexchanges. They come #6 quickly gs papers came ten, fificen, tweuty or forty years ago, What's the use of complaints on the part of Tas Exauixe® ang our merchaiis that their papers ad letters are delayed on sledges while @ railway ie ready to carry them right along if only the Government is willing to pay for « special train? Let us hark baek to old times. Sv; poee we have the mails carried to and from Cape Traverse oo sledges, and so save the cost of a epecial train; also, balance the antique arrangement ow the maipiand !
