Were the accum- alted wealth of the Islands distributed it two men strongly possessed of divergent convic tions upon great public questions, to be really friendly in private life. The Continental view, as we read it, is that if two political opponents are sncially warmly attached to one another their pubfe speeches can only be intended to bear what Dickens would have called a Pickwickian construction." Many people in England are so di moved at the flaccidity of public life at home that they are coming to the same conclusion. Herce such plens na that put forward by the correspondent of the Sprelator, - for a little niore healthy intolevance.
Even if it be prante that English tolerance is producing a corresponding dabbiness of conviction we are neverthelesvinclined to agree with the Spectator that it will not be a healthy sign if British politicians are ever induced to abandon their toleration, and to emulate the acrimonious comities of the Continent, On- lookers may draw what conclusion they please from the revelation of Mr. Balfour and Sir Henry Campbell-Rangerman discussing golf over their dinner phut the average Englishman would rather have it so, than be revaled with such an incident as recently happened in France. when the Minister of war was on the verge of fighting a duel with the Minister of Marine.
• Yet these two statesmen were not even op. ponents, they were members of the same Ministry. For that is one result of the spirit of uncompromising hostility cultivated in political life in France and Italy and Austrin. A public man may begin by avoiding his opponents, but 100 often heer ds by regarding with intolerance all who differ from him even his friends. Moreover, as the Spectaior acutely points out, when once complete political intolerance is accepted as a virtue to be developed, it becomes difficult in lines ofexcitementstoknow where to
draw the line. If pushed to extremes, a parallet is established with the religious zealots of six centuries ago who persuaded themselves that the only way of dealing with those who differ from them was to burn them. In England, at any rate, it has been demonstrated for a good many decades that political differences are not incompatible with private friendships; nor do we think prolonged experience establishes the need for an imitation of France, where "the division of parties extends to the whole field of private life." Our severance of political from personal feeling may have its drawbacks, bui does the introduction of political rancour into social life rently make for god Government? We cannot believe that any thoughtful French man would say that it does. A still more striking proof is discoverable in Irish politics. There, at any rate, private friendships between political opponents do not abound. Yet instead
of the interests of Ireland being advanced by the sedulous cultivation of bitterness, the only discoverable result is an undue tendency to resort upon occasion to the final convincing argement of the dead cat-Times of India,

English travellers in Italy who three or four years ago made a substantial profit in convert ing their sovereions into paper money have lately enjoyed no such adventitious advantage, Roughly speaking, the currencies of Italy and her neighbours have been at par, or thereabouts for same time. This was due to a variety of causes which cannot be fully entered into, chief amongst them, however, being the improved condition of Italian trade and finance. Last month, however, Italian paper money had As attained a position even superior to pat.. a Roman journal put it, paper money inconver tible at the State Treasuries and the great credit establishments was quoted in the Bourses of Genoa, Naples, or Rome, at a higher rate than its value in gold-in other words, paper was dearer than gold itself.

That it should be ro marked in new country in time of great prosperity is a most unhealthy sign, and if unchecked will inevitably result in the deterioration of the race. Last year the decline in the birth rate was stopped and a slight reaction set in. Wuch reliance, however, cannot be placed in the figures of a single year.

THE INTELLIGENCE OF THE NAVY,
A short time ago we drew attention to a report presented by the French Chamber by Mr. Lockroy, ex-Minister of Marine, on the condition of construction in the French Navy; a further instalment has recently been
published dealing with the higher administra. tion of the fleet, which is also of considemble interest.
The point on which Mr. Lockroy lays most stress is the large number of officers employed at headquarters in the French Navy, as compared with those similarly employed elsewhere; and yet as country is suffering more acutely than France from a dearth of

In the discussion which preceded the recent Colonial Conference, much was heard of the prosperity of New Zealand and the sturdy loyalty of its people. The New Zealand Year Book for 1902 as fully vindicates the first claim as the published proceedings of the Conference revealing the broad Imperial policy pressed throughout by Mr. Seddon, do the latter. The budget of the colony must be the envy of many a European Chancellor, vexed by the burden of a growing deficit and an increasing expenditure. The revenue amounted to a little over six millions sterling, and the expenditure to about five and three-quarter millions, leaving A comfortable balance in hand. The trade returns were, on the whole, equally, satisfactory. Imports increased by over a million sterling to nearly twelve millions, of which some tea millions were from Great Britain and British possessions.
