It is said that Overtures for peace have been made by the Spanish Govern- ment to the Government of’ the United- States, and that the war is practically at an end .; but considerable time is likely to elapse before affairs will be as they were before the outbreak of hostilities. The London (Eng) Saturday Review predicts a war of extermination between the Cubans and 'the Americans on the island, and the momentous question as to the possession: of the Phillippines -is to be settled. The European Powers are said to have agreed that Spain shall retain them, but Great Britain is not a party to the agreement. â€" Stop the Bohuses.a The following remarks on municipal bonuses are from-the Toronto Star, and express our sentiments on the subject as well as we could do it, no matter how hard we tried : “ Hardly a day passes but the papers contain a-statemcnt to the effect that some manufacturing concern in some town of the Province'is holding up the municipality for a bonus. That means that there is a breed of Ontario manu- facturers who are forever trying to coax the municipalities to support them in business. In many cases the amount of the demand is just about equal to the amount that. the proprietors of the concern would deem a decent income, That is to say, those people hope -to live, not on the output of their own enterprise and energy, but, in point of fact, upon public charity. And it is one of their favorite practices to play off one town against another. If they are located in the village of A. they will scare the villagers with the story that the town of B. will give them a big bonus. Then the people of A. hustle around and give them a bigger bonus than the one named. If they really wish to move their works to the town of B. they will tell the authorities of B. how big a thing their factory is, how many men it'cmploys, and how much additional prosperity it would mean to the town in which it was located. The practice has become an intolerable nui- sance. It should be regulated, if not entirely prohibited, by law. The T0- ronto members of the Legislature have been for some time advocating the enactment of legislation to forbid the granting of such bonuses by municipal ities. But the movement lor relief has been opposed by the rural legislators pretty generally. In the meantime the ' evil has become more and more preva- lent, and municipalities in all parts of the Province are beginning to groan l under the scheme of terrorism and ex- ' action to which the manufacturers are submitting them.

In point of public expediency the legislation cannot come too soon.” Not Killed. , In the Gazette of the 10th inst. we noticed the receipt by Mrs. C. Curtis of a “ Soldiers' Mcmorial," containing the names of thc officers and men of the Second Division of Company A, Wis- consin Volunteers, to which her two brothers, Alexander and Joseph Hume, belong. Since then it has been stated in two or three papers that the young men were killed at Santiago; but that such was not the case, and that our~ opinion that the “ memorial "' was sim- ply intcndcd as a souvenir of the Divi- sion, is proved by the following extract from a letter received by Mrs. Curtis on Thursday of last week from one of her sisters at Green Bay, Wisconsin . r “ You are foolish to scare yourself in this way. The boys are all right. They are both in Charleston, S. C. They are having a better time than any of us, and I really envy them. They have not gone to Cuba, and I doubt if they ever get there, as they are waiting to hear the' outcome of the surrender of Santiago. You know Spain is not in it at all,and the war is about over. If we have another battle things will be settled for sure, but I think we will not have anymore, as they‘rcalize fully that the U.'S. is all it claims to be. Now, please don’t worry any more. for you will be informed as definitely as we are if anv- thing happens. The paper you got must have been a souvenir of the camp, with the name of the company to which the boys; belong." ‘ Mrs. Curtis has since learned that on the day the above letter was written I (the 17th) her brothers sailed lrom Charleston to Porto Rico, where part of the expedition landed on Wednesday , last. l School-‘Examinatimis. .
