â€"â€"The Doukhobors. Last week 2,» CDO of these Russian quakers arrived in Canada and are being torwarded at government expense to the cities of Manitoba where they will be mainâ€" tained till spring opens, and then placed in communities and left to work the soil. To the surprise and gratification of the authorities no sickâ€" nes#s, except a case of measles was on board, and this testimony to their bealth and sanitary condition is a very good recommendation of them as future citizens. As they neared the shore they joined in a hymn which translated, meant ‘‘God is with us, be has brought us through." Two thousand more of these interesting people are on there way here, forced tfrom their cuum.l;r by a harsh military government, and though they had an offer of free transportation to a French eplony they decided on the B:itish offer as presenting the most freedom. Like the Menonites, these people deâ€" sire complete exclusion, and excepting for the taxâ€"coliector will likely get it for a while, but one generation will not pass before they will awake to the privileges of freemen. This is a notable addition to Canada‘s populâ€" ation, and some say the most notable influx of population since America beâ€" gan to be peopled from Europe. â€"British Liberalism seems sadly out of joint since the retirement of (Gladstone from active politics. Sever al anxious nnsettletfo years were followed by the retivrement of Sir Wm. Harcourt from the leadership owing to differences of opinion with his colleag ues which were rather felt than exâ€" pressed. Now John Morley, on whom more than any the mantle of Gladâ€" stone seems to rest, bas retired also and will help Liberalism all he can without entering into the formal counâ€" sels of the party. _ Lord Roscbery has now a chance to prove his statesmanâ€" ship by some constructive policy that will reunite cordially all British Liberâ€" als. â€"By a "convention" signed at Cairo, Egypt, last week, united Egyptian »nd British control, (which means British) was formally assumed over an immense district of Central Africa estimated at 2.000,000 square miles and containing 90,000, 000 populâ€" ation. To raise this mass with the leaven of civilization will require a generation or two, but in no way could it be better done than under British control. _ From ‘‘Cape to Cairo " will not . be longmerely a dream of Cecil Rhodes. _ Thus the ‘‘vaster Enpire than has been" conâ€" tinues to grow. â€"â€"â€"â€"+# 44â€" â€"The attention of British Statesmen is being more and more directed to French claims in Newfoundland, and the more these are examined the conâ€" vieticn grows that France has been exâ€" ceeding her rights and will befor long have to yield up what she never right fally owned _ The way will then be smoothed for the admission of the proâ€" vince into the Dominion. Tenth, to icéei)_tâ€";f;e principle of mediation and arbitration in such cases as lend themselves thereto. Ninth, to revise the declarations concerning the laws and customs of war elaborated at Brussels in 1874. â€"The Ontario House meets on Wedâ€" nesday next, and the government is making every exertion we are told to have the estimates ready almost as soon as the House opens. Fourth, to restrict the use of the most terrible of existing explosives and to forbid the throwing of any exâ€" plosives from balioons or similarly. Fitth, to forbid the employment of submarine torpedoes and similar conâ€" trivances. Sixth, to undertake not to construct vesseis with rams. Seventh, toai)ply the (Geneva conâ€" vention to naval wartare. Eighth, to neutralize vessels saving those wrecked in naval battles. Third, to interdict the use of any new weapon or explosive of a power fuller than now made. Second, to endeavor to find means of reducing the forces and budgets in the future. £0% & EO PPCAATTZ M FZACCSUAY IRBI, The Czar‘s Minister of Fore)gn Af.
