R.L, Borden evidently made a deep impression in the Old Country. Ina recent issue, dealing with his Toronto speech, the London Times has this highly eulogistic reference to the Canadian Premier. * It is widely felt in this country that he "has opened new avenues of thought on the Imperial problem. That isa gteat service in itself, and one more and more required of Imperial Statesmen at a moment when the dangers by which the Empire is menaced seem to grow more swiftly. than the general capacity of our peoples for realizing them. But Mr. Burden is pot a thinker only. Our Canadian correspondent has told us that he is held by his fellow- countrymen to have represented Canada at the Imperial capital with reserve, courtesy, dignity and ability. That estimate might well be put even in higher terms. Mr. Borden has left his mark upon us as astatesman in whom foresight and grasp of principle are combin- ed with solid judgment and rare command of ways and means. He has made us feel that his word is as good as his bond, and that when his mind is set his powers of action areequal to his capacity for thought. We have few men among us who are so well blended the thought + habit of the: student with the prac- : Rr the man of affaits, 7 The 18 usually too long, and that of the politicians too short, The imagination which overlooks the practical difficulties of a course is as useless by itsclf as as the opportunanism which gives to difficulties the moment they are felt. Mr. Borden, we believe has power to see both the distant goal and the ground under his feet ; and we have given bim our confidence in this country as a statesman who will choose his course with wisdom, but will not turn aside from his aims, ------ 'While it reverses a rule of the Laurier Government which the Packet cannot but feel embodied a desirable principle, namely, not to appoint men as judges in the county in which they have resided the appointment of Mr. A. A: Mahaffy, MPP, as Judge 6f the Dittrict of Mus- koka is in other respects admirable. His sterling character and legal dbility qual- ify him exceptionally well for a seat on the bench. Of Judge McGillivray, who succeeds the late Judge McCrimmon in the Connty of Ontario we cannot speak " from personal knowledge, but in the known, the opinion appears general that he will make a good judge.

At present Mr. Vernon is enjoying the delightful scenes of his boyhood days in Reach and isthe guest of his sister, Mrs. Thos. Graham, Manchester, and other relatives.
