on, Wednesday afternoon. the following

Church was presented: -"Whereas we be-
lieve asession cannot, upon auy . principle
of justice, deal with cases of drunkenness
amongst the members with a view to dis-
cipline, while other members sell that which
will intoxicate, hereafter no person be ad-
mitted to membership in thisChurch who is

Gladstone is the most obliging statesman iu
public life at the present day. It is said he is
one of the few politicians who have never re-
fused the request of a persistent autograph
hunter, and lie has been known to send post-
card replies to information huntera by the
hundred even while he was considering the
gravest of problems. The Liberal leader's
latest condescension has been to send to a
Presbyterian congregation in Bo'ness,Scotland
a tree cut down by himself. • The people of
the town are great admirers of tiro honorable
gentleman, and the canny managers of the
church bazar struck upon the novel request as
a weans of adding to,their funds. They bad

Large as the national debt of Great Britain
is, it is now $150,000,000 less than it was ten
years ago. Two centuries ago it was not mach
over $3,000,000. At the close of the American
war, a century later it had been increased to
$1,215,000,000,and when the Napoleonio wars
were concluded it exceeded 84,300,000,000.
The -Crimean war was a costly affair;but at its
close the aggregate debt bad fallen to $4,040,•
000,000, and the process of reduction has
since been continuous. In 1875, under Sir
Stafford Northcote's regime,theannual charge
of the debt was fixed at $L40,000,000,aprocess
of reduction under easy conditions was arrang-
ed. In 1883 the system was revised and tho
rate of reduction quickened. The Chancellor
of the Exchequer then estimated that in twenty
years $865,000,000 would bo paid off by the
operation of the now oinking fund. Thodobt
at present amounts to $3,710,000,000. It
would be pleasant to bo able to record some
redaction of our own pnblioindebtednoss, no
matter how slight.
