It gave a longer time in which to put in the petition, a longer time in which to-colleét' the evidence in the case, and and made the forfei: ture of the deposit follow any failure to go on with the trial The efficacy of the measure doubted by the legal committee, and it was agreed to go no further with it until Attorney-General Gibson had an opportunity to consult the judges respecting it. He said he would get the experience from the men on the bench and at the next session submit a bill which would be framed accord: ing to it. The consgryative press insinuates that the law as it stands favours the government, hence the 'desire to re tain it. "When a general election is over," says' the Mail, 'and the seats of members who have been elected by t-stuffing or hy the purchase of ee are protested, the government adopts retaliatory measures. Thous ands of @dlars are at once raised, aad petitions are filed against every apposition mnber in sight." The Mail, it 38 inferred, never heard about the funds which were subserib- od by conservatives and. for the pur pose of prosecuting the, liberals who were alleged to have won their seats unfajrly. There cannot be a saw-off without the consent of both parties. The cases must go on unless they are withdrawn, and if the arrangement to drop some of them is made by one side it is inoperative unless approved by the other side. The talk, the law as it stands being a special conveni: ence of the governmept is unworthy of any journal which is printed for the perusal of intelligent people, was therefore, about | NAVIES OF THE FUTURE. Col. Denigon, of Toronto, who isan advanced *ihilitary man, predicts the time when the nations will cease building great battleships, which are heavily armoured, unwieldy and deli: cate nnd unable to resist the attacks of the torpedoes and submarine boats. The naval battle of the future, will, he thinks, be conducted by boats of small size, by torpedo boats or des: troyers, that will fight on the sea as men fight on the land, and go down before the attacks. of each other ia the same way. By the way Lord Selborne gives an emphatic contradiction to a very com: | mon impression-which prevails in rg gard to the submarine boat. A con temporary stated that the difficulty with A 1, sunk by a great packet in Portsmouth harbour, was that it had to come to the surface occasionally for observation, and that in rising for the last time it came accidentally into collisism with the larger boat. Lord Selbourne says: "The officer in charge ought freguently "to have scanned the horizon, out for his majesty's ship Juno,, and in his anxiety to observe her he for got too long to sean the horizon. The offiver suddenly saw looming in his fidd of vision the bows of a great ship. He rapidly turned his tube, saw but he had orders to look. the ship was right on top of him, and immediately made his submarise ship a it appears that the sub- marine can run along under water but close to its surface, and by means of & perescope ; the officer in charge can see what is going on about him. The accident happened during a great na val exhibition for the benefit of Prince Henry of Germany, then on a visit to England, and the commander of A 1 was so absorbed in: the naval man- oeuvres as to neglect the ordinary precaution and look out for tie boats snqaged In commerce.

The discovery of this quality of salt water probably suggested to the French savant, M. Quinton, a long and patient research concerning sea water, the conclusions of which throw unexpected light on and adds support to the Darwinian theory of evolution. M. Quinton maintains that sea wat- er is the natural source from which, as Prof. Haeckel believes, elementary bodies rise which develop into all the species, including the human. - The en- vironment wherein the anatomical ele- ments of living creatures exist is, nei ther more nor less than a marine one. Our tissues and cells continue to ex- ert their functions in a fluid where the composition bears the closest re. semblance to'that of sea water, . Hitherto the number of elements en- tering into the composition of the liv- ing body was considered about fif- teen. M.

Further, if an animal is bled to the point of exhaustion and the place of the blood supplied with sea water the animal regains its strength in one day, and there is complete recovery in five days. M.

Thus sea water appears to be the true nut rient fluid for animals, in fact, their natural plasma. It Was Ghost Edough. New York Sun A college story that is often told at Harv: ard is cited as showing the effect of an apparition upon the one who beholds it. > A youth took'it into his head to endeavor to convert an infidel com panion of his by appearing as a ghost befores him. He accordingly dressed himself up in the usual ghost attire, having previously extracted the ball from a pistol which always lay near the head of his: friend's bed. Upon- first awakening and seeing the aPiparition, Brown, the vouth who was to be frightened, very coolly looked hit companion, the ghost, in the face, and said "I know vou see 1 am not alarmed. this is a good joke ; Now you vou; may vanish." I'he ghost stood still. "Go on, now," said Brown. "That is enough. I shall become angry. Get out of here. Still the ghost did not move. "Ih " burst forth Brown, "if you don't get out of hfe in three min utes, I'll show youn." He waited the time stated deliber ately leveled his yistol and fired. When he saw that the immovable fi- gure stood stock still Brown uttered a shriek of fright, became convulsed, and soon afterward died. The very moment he believed it to "be a ghost his human nature gave way. Song Of Peace For Spring Time.
