Toronto, delivered a remark- able address at the Dudley street Baptist church to day. “The rela- tions of England and the United States as Christian nations” was his subject, and his extreme views created a sensation. Some of the books used in the schools of America at the present time. he claimed, were a great hindrance to the friend- ly relations. He criticised the his- tory of the United Sta°es. He thought that the war between the colonies and Great Britain was chronicled with altogether too much prominence. This influenced the minds of the children and cultivated a spirit of hatred. Then with ve- hemence he denounced the public press. To a greater or less degree it opposed the idea of strengthening good relationship between the United States and England. For the sake of sensationalism the news- papers would twist the lion’s tail. He said, "The United States makes a supreme blunder in holding too long to the old superstition that she must avoid entanglement with the affairs of other powers.” The United States the speaker said. has reached an age. when she should assume responsil il‘ ity. She must have a foreign policy and as Mr. Eaton put it, she is going to have it whether she wants it or.- not. What is more, when the United States finally will have marked out a foreign policy, it will be along the same lines as the policy of Great Britain England and the United States should arbitrate rather than quarrel. Peace should exist between these two nations, instead of war. If they but work together lit would be to the blessing and ad- vantage of all mankind. But if there should be w tr between them it would be a curs; to the entire world. An arbitration between these two great powers, the speaker thought, was the only rational and Christian- like manner in which to solve the problem. He looked for the time when the Stars and Stripes would float beside the British Jack. JOIINSTONâ€"FIELDâ€"AL the Methodist Parsonage, Durham. on the 18th int... by Rev. J. Fergusc'm.
