Many people think our National An- them was composed for the reign of Queen Victoria, but it was composed, both words and music, by Henry Carey an English poet and composer, whe died iu 1748, substantially as we have ft to day.

But what was the kernel Of Ca whole matter ? What was tne reSol tom into which " TUE VERSATILE "BILLY" of Emit York chrystalleed his inhere for meeting the impending disaster a nothing more or less than cleelaratio that in order to get the best resul from the Government railway system already existing, "the adrninistratio thereof dieted be freed from all,pcilit cal influence and interferenne. No Word about taking action to wee the awful danger which he had so in idly depicted as imminent, in deed i the resolutim Meant anything at al it was a direct negation of all th speech contained, because by inferenc it declared that 'Government contr.() prevented the best results being se cured, and the experience of othe countries goes to show that direct min isterial control is the, only Workabl method that can , he employed in th management of state-ownedlranchises Then the new leaders took a hand in and both of them were at special pejo to make it clear to tbe Rouse and th country that they were not respontribl for their supporter's views on this tit first question upon which they had ha 'awe to have a ROAD Mr ripedea, was 'prepared to support that part o the resolution which called for freedom from pllitical interference" -there wa nothing else in it anyway; and 'upon the only really important part of M Maclean's speech, that which deal with state ownership of railways th leader made it abundantly clear 'tha, ed an of 999 ,n 2 0- te 11 1. 1. r- he had no opinion sufficiently formed to give it utterance.

Choke Wallace talked all round the question, joining in the debate upon the principle that West York has go to Ire heard whenever East York speaks; and, Co). Hughes declared that bad pat in an amendment and then spoken against it. For himself he could support the a.mendment to take control of the Intercolonial out of the .hands of the naughty Grits, but, he could not endorse the proposition that the Government should , own all the railways of the country, • It is not surprising, perhaps, that . . the Conservatives are shy of the clues - tion in view of the mesa their friends are in, in their initial efforts towards stale control in Manitoba. There the Conservative premier, Mr Roblin, has stepped in where his predecessors fear- ed to tread, and at present appearances the truth of the old adage about angels and fools has been exemplified. At all events, just now the Manitoba GoV- ernment is in the happy position of haying announced a policy with a great flourish -of trumpets, only to find their most ° influential supporters throughout the Proyinea in revolt aeainst it, and to be told by the lead- ing railway mea in the .country that the carryieg out of the sci-ewe mean inevitable bankruptcy • to the Province. Noting the situation, both from a federal and provincial stand- point, therefore, the ordinary citizen may well be excused for asking what has become of that heaven -born in- stinct of government which, we have been given to understand. was and is the monopoly of the Conservative patty. Concerning South Africa 1 t ket I purchased abont half it bushel of oranges, bananas and nuts for 400. For transport annuale, donkeys or milch cows rue lobed, they thinking it a great waste to me oxen, AB they are only good for transport, whereae the cowe serve a double purpose. On board the ship. we bad a vete? pleasant time, the officers doing all in their power to make the trip enjoy- able A greet many games of cricket were played on board; a ball made out of rope, by the sailors, were What was used, a .good many of which were knocked over -board (balls I mean, not sailors.) On several evenines we had, Concerts; one Was. an evening round the camp fire, given by soldiers who had been in the loath African cam- paign. We also. had it lecture on Westminster Abbey, which very inter - eating. For all concerts the stewards took the trouble to decorate with flags and bunting. On Sundays divine ser- vice was held, nearly ail on board at- tending. Among. the passengers. there were 'four ministers, three army scripture readers, three ladies who had been do- ing mission work among the natives of Cape Colony, three professional actors, large numbers of soldiers, and many "iithers, leaking a toed of three bun- dred and twenty-five passengers. Al- though quite a mixed crowd every- thing went along smoothly, eyery.per- son being on the same level socially teethe tinoe being. Sports were held for the grown tolk; and also the chil• dren, and were enjoyed by those that witnessed them, more, I think,than by those who took part.

'We then sailed on to London where we disembarked at the • Tilbury. Docks which are about 28 Males from the St. Pancras station, where our train Went in. It was a.t this station I had ,niy first experience of the rotten English baggage system, but a is not baggage there, all being called luggage. When ✓ We got to the station about a dozen of , t porters. got Into the baggage car and a started to tumble the trunks and val- ises out. 'immediately, got hold of a porcer and told him mine had my name . on it; that is the way to identity it, be- cause you get no cheek or anything else from tloe aiLway. I thought that if any person got there and claimed a your baggage before you arrived' they would get it. Also did not like their corrpartment coaches, as they are the best things I knew of, where crime collie be committed. A person could very easily murder it man or assault it woman without hardly a sound being heard in • floe next compartments. It. is only _recently that any cars like our own corridor ones have been used, the Great Eastern having some on their line in use at the present time. There are three classes for passengers, first, second and third; the second th,ey are doing away with; the majority of• people t ravel third. Some would think it was the guard in charge of the trent that looked at your . ticItets; net so;•at different places where tbe train stops an intipector comes -alone and examines them.
