G. Barrie, the young Y, M,. C,. A. Secretary sent with the Canadian _ Contingent. _ Dr. Barrie‘s praises have been loudly sung by the men in their home letters. _ Writing from the deck of the Sardinian on the out ward voyage he says :â€" "I think it one of the most erying shames that our ‘"Christians" are sending men on such errand and has loaded down the ship with tohaceo and strong liquors which are free to the men, at the disâ€" cretion of the officers. On the other bhand there is not a free temperance drink to be had. Take for instance the officers mess; at every meal there are decanters of liquor on the tables free to all, with as many cigars and cigarettes as one can smoke; but when a few of us wants a drink of soda water we pay fifteen cents per bottle. Many a man hbas taken his first drink and cigar during these days. However since we have entered the hot weather this form of "rations" hasâ€"been more or less restrained and lime juice substituted.

After the way Britain kept Europe back in the war with Spain, it is a little irritating to see our big neighbor take a step, which, had France made it, would almost have meant war. However it may have been done for friendrbip after all, for it has allowed Lord Salishury a chance to announce to all the world that no interâ€" vention would be tolerated, and he has. done it in a sugarâ€"coated way that aone it in aA su vauses no irritat The republics m Presidents Kruger and Steyn. have certainly no intention to pose as humorâ€" ists in the solemnly worded appeal they made to Lord Salishury to stop the war and consider ‘"in the name of the Triune God" what they were fightâ€" ing about, but if Spain at the destrucâ€" tion of Cervera‘s fleet by the Amervican admiral had appealed to the States to stop the war, the condition being to leave Spain in possession of Cuba, Porto Rico, &¢., it would have looked irresisâ€" tibly funny.
