He points out that not only are our northern neighbors inhabitants of 'America,' nnd therefore "'Amnericans,'"" but that their territory is considerably larger than that of the United States, ex- cluding Alaska, all of which is en- tirely true, though we do not sce the exact pertinency of excluding Alaska in the measurement of territory itd 'we are to limit the use of the word Amorican to the designation of an "inhabitant of the continent of Amer- the Canadian is as completely an American as a resident of New .

As it is calculated to give a new sense of dignity and su- periority to even the junior reporter, we reproduce it herewith, somewhat damaged in translation, says The Toronto News: 'The Press fs one or fmore men who pass their lives, like hermits, in a solitary chamber, thinking and writing in the interests of the fellows, who, more fortunate than themselves, are frequenting con- certs, theatres and so on in the sole intent of procuring their own de- light.
