THURSDAY FEBRUARY 23. 1888 Tun three largest orchid growers in England, are undoubtedly Baron Sch- roder, Sir Trevor Lawrence, and Mr. Lee, of Leatherhead. These gentlemen are closely followed by the Bothehild 'family, no fewer than a dozen ole whom, in this country and on the Continent, are orchid growers. Mr. Chamberlain stands is the first rank with the three growers mentioned. At a low .estimate Erie collection has been valued at £8004; it is worth a great deal more. The member for'West Birmingham has been collecting orchids for the last twenty refufs, and his zone houses at Highbury, three a# them more than thirty feet'. Song,, .aro arranged in u most tasteful end attractive manner The houses are ell joined together, and are couaec- ted with a nicely -kept conservatory and the drawing -room by mean. s of a glass - covered, rasaie4 cored, plant -furnished promenade, The whole is lighted up by electricity in the evening. Curious readers may also he interested in know- ing thatM r. Chamberlain takes a close personal interest in orchid culture, and spends a. considerable poetiou of ilia bine in his houses, superinteudiug the n]sauageaiaent of their 'valuable +con, tents." Toa &S's have witnessed some re- markable events in English history. In 15S8 the destruction of the Spanish Armada prevented the rule of the In- quisition from becoming the law of the word and made England mistress of the fleas in place of Spain. In 108 the English Revolution established consti- tutional liberty in Great Britain, and cell Europe felt the effect 'In /788 the coustitution of the United States, which had completely thrown off Eng. ash rule, became the lair of the land by the admission of New Hampshire, the nineth state. Tremendous results for the world hung on these three events, so closely identified with SS's. 'What 1888 will bring forth no Haan can tell although sanguine people are Looking out for a political milleniun In Canada when there shall be no more bribery and corruption and the Grits shall have to quit their "cussedness" and as lovers of ;,heir country and the beauti- ful and true shall have affilated with the great Liberal -Conservative party. Tun Globe is fast falling from grace in the Reform ranks. It now attacks a staunch Liberal, for his writing to know what the Globe meant by "un restricted receprocity," in jumps and 'tarts. The Globe is the champion ex- ponent of the Liberal party (excluding the Mail), and it thinks that every Reformer should believe, and help to carry out every platform and policy which it sends forth. How can any civilized man who has the education and intellect o£ a comon school boy, believe every word, even one, that the Globe utters, as it is now, falling from all grace in the party. It is time that the Reformers opened their eyes, to see, that by following the courses laid down by the Globe, that they will serge the fate they have always received, and that the polices advocated by it are "empty," or in other words "filled 'with wind." Come Mn Globe, drop in the background, and let the Mail lead the procession, and stop howling. Ton New York San continues its war against the Canadian Pacific rail- road company with redoubled vigor and acrimony. On Satudrayit .calls upon the United States government to "sup press the invasion of United States ter- ritory" by the company. The a invas- ion" meant by the Sun is theconstruct- 1on by the 0. P. R. conpany of a line through northern Maine The eoaip. any holds a charter from the state go- vernment of Maine; but the Sun denies the right of the state to permit any such piirilege to a. foreign corporation. Suppose the American federal govern- ment takes cognizance of the Sun's fren- zied demands and interposes to prevent the "invasion" of IJ. S. territory. What would be the result? It is extremely probably that a sudden halt would be called en such action if the Dominion ge ernnaent stepped in to prevent any farther "invasion" of Canadian terri- tory by the Canada Southean amts Mic- higan Central railway companies. Some of the sore head Reform papers are trying to belittle the Conservative demonstration at Qubec,which was not merely a marked triumph for Sir Adol- phe Caron, but a successful proof , of the Government's popularity as well. One Liberal authority does not believe there could have been more than four hundred present. Four', hundred is not a bad muster for a minority of one, anyway. Poole Lord Dutierin is coming in for ft email measure of abuse from the Irish - .American papers because he has not seen fit to join Parnell and Gladstone in their fight against imperial unity. Iiis critics are "disappointed in him" be. cause ne preferred the Italian ambass- adorship to a share in the present par- liamentary struggle. But Loral Dune - rip. must live. Ile is not a rich man, and since his tenants have insisted cut- tings down what little revenue be de. rives from his Irish estate he ?must de• pend chiefly on the emoluments sf his displornatie offices, Lortl Dufferiu would have everything to lose by leav- ing the displowatfe service rand taking part in the home rule agitation. In this he differs from nearly all the home rule agitators, wile were poor as well as obscure before they began the work of "freeing Ireland," and have gaiued both wealth and notoriety in the cause. The majority of the Parnellites have every- thing to gain and notnntg to lose by agitation. Theirs is a patriotism that pays. AT the Conservative convention, held at Glencoe, oat Monday last, for the purpose of selecting a standard bearer to contest West Middlesex, caused by Justice Falconbriclge unseat- ing Dr, Roome. It was unanimously agreed that Dr, Roome be again the. standard bearer in their behalf, as he was honorably acquited by the learned Justice, and it will be without doubt, that Dr, Bootee will a gain be elected to represent West Middlesex in the House. Dr. Room we are happy to say, can appeal to the people with a sound policy, while his opponent, who ever he may be, will have only a few "wind broken" arguments to fight'; ith, and Dr. Roome, we are satisfied will expose and lay open every argument that does not have truth stamped on its face. Wage in, try again, and route the fickle "party of purity." Too Manuel Tunnel Company are not easily discouraged. The determined opposition which they have met with in the country and in Parliament have not caused them to abandon their pro. ject. They are resolved to make a third attempt this year to obtain the passage of their measure. To meet the objection that the tunnel will snake it easy for the French to invade Eng- land the eompally's advocates say that means can be taken to flood the tunnel at a moment's notice, so that the lain adiu� arwywill meet with a fate worse than the Egyptian oue which was drowned in the Red Sea. Tug Toronto World claims that "the independent press of Canada is now the majorisy"—that is, that there are more independent papers than the re are party papers. When we find the Work/ including the Toronto Globe among the "independents" we feel quite sure that the World's assertion is amply correct; Heretofore, if a prisoner died in all au inquest on the; remains was required by law, as as general safeguard, A. Dill has been brought in at Toronto to alter this law, so that no iuciuest shall be deemed necessary except on the order of the County Attorney, or the County Judge, or two justices of the peace. Tan Reformers of Quebec cannot al- low Mercier, who is at present in Eu- rope, for the benefit of his health, to rest. They are kicking up and raising a great dust amongst themselves, and are sending urgent appeals for him to return and battle their difference. Mr. Mercier isa clever man,and a valuable acquesition to thatparty of "no policy." We have not yet, this far,hearcl of any appeals being sent to Mr. Blake, to re- turn and settle disputes of "Party of Purity" in the Dominion. Can it be a settled fact that they have given that favorite song "0 Blake is the man' for the nation" a rest, or entirely dis- carded it, together with Mr. Blake. Tna Hon. O. Mo wet has one of the best book-keepers to be found. Re can figure out% surplus at any time, when any honest man would find a de- fict. However Mr. Mowat's book-keep- er, thus far has been unable to deceive the Conservatives, and a nutnber ofbthe Reform journals are "onto his racket" and now demand statements which they can understand. • S1;icit couiederation the Reform party has been like the woman of Sam. aria. It bath bad five leaders --Geo. Brown, Mackenzie, Blake an "advisory board" during the iuterregnuul, and Laurier. --and he whom it now hath is not its leader. Tan Globe, in a recent issue re-pro- dueed..11r. Fraser's false charges again- st Mr. Meredith, but forgot to ment- ion in the same issue that Mr. Fraser's, charges were compiled from hearsay, of which he knows nothing, Tan Dominion Parliament meets for the general despatch of business to- day (Thursday.) Dr, Montague, the hero of Ilaiditnand, will slave the ad- dress in reply to the speech from the throne. Tun Reform journals of Canada, should, before declaring war on Sir CYfarles Tupper and Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, wait and see if they be- trayed Canada in the fishery confer- ence. Oen reason why Reformers are be. gluing to be ashamed of their party may be, that, having been so long in "the cold shades of opposition," they are frozen, and mortication has set in. Tun Rochester Herald says that of six Toronto dailies, only one —The Empire—is a party paper. This is a hard blow to the old Globe and Mail. Tun "provincial" Reform press is still jumping on the Torotto Globe with the weight of 122,000,000 foot- pounds. ese,WS.,—X X.". = + Trot Fishery Treaty between Can- ada and the United States has been fin ally settled, and is very favorable to Canada and the United States.
