New York, reb. bB.~the subject which scemy to engross all is the wea: ther, which has been a standing hor ror all the week. It is extremely for tunate for the "avthor, who claims the ownership of "The Beautiful Snow." 1 could not help admiring ths righteous vingeance of a good honest hion citizen who exclaimed, 'If I had that cuss here I would punch his head until he was a subject for a coroner's inquest." The qualifying verbs and adverbs in the English lan- are numerous and ford le, but there was not enough of them to give power of the anathema.

"One of the most prominent and in- fluential of them told me of an. inter view Mr. Chamberlain had with him immediately after the news arrived from Phoenix Park. Mr. Chamberlain was anxious to know what measure of sunvort he might expect to receive from the nationalists if he undertook the office of chief secretary: The Irish methber asked whether it had been of- fered to him bv the premier. Mr. Chamberlain made no definite reply but smiled with assurance accepted as meaning that if he would take it it was his. "A few days later announcement was made that George Trevelyan wes oo ing to the Irish office.
