Let us hope, however, that Canada will never be brought to either physi- cal or sentimental suffering by the United States. When the Star-Span- gled Banner 1? raised there, qzay it be to make a short job of the conquest, and get rid of the pestilent annoyance of the Canadian fire in the rear. Af- terward a comparatively small army of occupation could hold the Dominion. The consequences to Canada would be far less bitter, therefore. than its newspapers seem to imagine. The agony would be soon over. The worst for which the Canadians would have to prepare with grim satisfaction, to use the words of the Toronto journal. would be almost wholly the loss of their colonial dependence on Great Britain, and really that would be a blessing forced 0n themwand not a calamity because of which they would receive or deserve sympathy. The campaign would be so short and de- cisive that the Dominion would be neither devastated nor exhausted by it. The very weakness of Canada would save it from the awful phy- sical suffering expected by the Toron- to newspaper. Its anguish would be sentimental chiefly. In the lamentable and, we hope, im- possible event of war with England, almost the sole employment we should have for our army of half a million men, outside of manning the coast de- fences, would be in the conquest of Canada, at least in the beginning. It would not be difficult for us to over- run Canada within a. few months af- ter the declaration of hostilities. If necessary. we'could send thither sev- eral army corps as numerous as is the native population of the Dominion. It would be no disgrace to the Canadians to be beaten. That would be a tore- gone conclusion. They would be over- whelmed: and undoubtedly it would be the military policy of this country The r-iuck which the Canadians are no“ displaying in the face of certain subju‘ration if wai betveen England and the United States should occur makes us all the more ready to wel- come them to be sharers in the glory of the unconquerable Stars and Stripes. They are exhibiting, a. spirit of manliness which is inconsistent with their present colonial dependence. and are humiliated by it. We have no doubt that they would fight bravely in their somewhat pathetic allegiance to a power three thousand miles away, which would be powerless to save them from speedy subjugation. They- wculd yield before “the bottomless pit is frozen over." but they would not giye in without courageous resistance.

General lnurlo ’I‘nlls Enzllshmen About our Military Strength, i London, Dec. 22.--In an interview on the defense of Canada John W. Laurie, M.P., who was appointed a Lieut.-Gen- {I oral ~in the Canadian militia in 1862. said that Canada could in the event of war immediately place in the field 100,- 000 men, each of them filled with the .-~. .. highest loyalty to the Motherland and fired with the utmost enthusiasm. Speaking- of the disparity of the peo- ple of Canada and the United States he said that it was not a question of 66,000,000 against 5,000,000 because Cana- da’s people were mostly within strik- ing distance of the frontier, while al- though the frontier on the American side was more thickly populated, the main population was some distance I away. It would take the United States rlonger to bring up some of its forces !than to send troops to England. There ;Was no question of the Canadians be- iing unanimous in their resolution to defend their country and remain a. part of the British Empire. Canada would be perfectly friendly with the United States. provided the latter minded its own business, but if it once attempted to interfere in Cana- dian afl’airs there was not a man in the Dominion who would not cry, “Hands off.” The French-Canadians were equally solid against Canada’s absorption by the United States.

Of all the surprises of the week this for Eng- lishmen is the most startling. 1f. Lord Salisbury had known as much about American feeling a few months ago as he does now, the de- mand for arbitration might have been rejected,but the Monroe doctrine would have been treated with more respect, and greater pains would have been taken to avoid arousing national re- sentment. While Mr. Cleveland has commanded the attention of Europe by his undiplomatic language and de- fiant recommendation for thelappoint- ment of a. commission to ascertain the rightful boundary of Venezuela he has ,united England in inflexible opposition ‘to the Monroe doctrine as he proposes to apply it. be English people know little about either the Venezuela case or the Monroe doctrine. but when they read a deliberate proposal in the mes- sage that an American Commission should find out where one of the boun- daries of the British Empire really was. and then take measures to keep British subjects on the right side or it. they were filled with wrathtul indig- nation. The issue for them was simple and easily understood. With one voice they declared that no self-respecting nation could have its frontiers arbi- trarily dictated by another power un- der threat of war. Europe. through the press of the great capitals, has al- eo roelnimed that this method or up- ply ng the Monroe doctrine is imprac- timbio. For four days Mr. Cleveland’s mes- sage has been one of. the supreme top- ics in England. The papers have been filled with it; little else has been talked about. It is doubtful if England has been more profoundly stirred by any other public event since the Trent at- fair.

Ford cables from London to The Tri- bune : Fe 3 monable one: “Mr. Cleveland seeks for his country not the slightest advantage at the ex- pense or any other. He is not to extend our territorial limits._ He does not claim to encroach upon the rights or any other nation. He does not pretend to decide what are the rights of either Great Britain or Vene- zuela. He simply asserts the duty of the United States to see that no essen- tial wrong is done to any independent nation on this continent. and invites Great Britain to consent to the only possible adequate method of determin- ing what the rights of the two parties to the controversy are.” (Where The Times is weak and where Mr. Cleveland is weak. if The Times speaks for him, is that while he is not trying to extend the terri- torial limits of the United States, he has dictated to another and a greater power how it shall settle a. dispute with the South American Republic.) \ 1 1 CANADA'S l-‘IHIII‘ISG ABILITY.

"It does not matter on what pretext England is seeking to extend her sys- tem of government on this continent.

The bill appropriating $100,000 for the expenses of the Venezuelan com- mission. as recommended by the Pre- sident, will not be ‘passed in the Sen- ate quite as exped tiously as it was rushed through the House. The House simply appropriates the money neces- sary; the Senate proposes to melts it s more serious matter. When the bill comes over it will be referred to the Committee on Foreign Afleirs. Senator Morgan favors increasing the sppropri- stion to $250,000; but there is mother and more important reason why the bill should be referred. The Monroe doctrine has never been perpetuated in and ot the United Btstes statutes and it is the purpose of the Senate Committee to engrnit this doctrine into this bill.

It appropriates one hun- dred million dollars to be immediately available, for the construction at for- tiflcations and other works of defence on the sea coasts and along the Cana- dian frontier. and for their armament with heavy ordnance. In order to raise the sum of money necessary to carry out the provisions of this act. the Secretary of the Trea- sury is authorized to issue and sell bonds. payable at the pleasure of the United States. within 30 days. Mr. Hitt introduced a resolution in the House appropriating 3100.000 to de- fray the expenses or a commission to fix the Venezuela boundary. which “’23 unanimously adopted. Washington, Dec. 18.â€"Several Sena- tors are thoroughly in earnest about the President's message and propose to back him up in the most substantial manner. There have been numerous ‘ conferences or Senators. and there ap- pears to be a somewhat practical unanimity that an appropriation should be speedily made that would enable the Administration to equip an army it it were necessary to call one into the field. With this idea in View. Mr. Chandler (R.
