The Portugal of To-day,- "The renewed trouble in Forin gal forces men to think sorrow fally of the decadence of a once great nation. Less than filly miles from this Colony in a mournful record of that great- nesa; for, however, it may be regarded, Macno is interesting only as a relic of days of high enterprise and as an instance of wLas might have been. Long before Bongtong was thought of as a British Colony it had its chance to establish itself as a leading, if not the leading; port in the Far East. And look at it-to-day-a shapeless collection of dingy gambling dens; that and little more Yet there waga lime

Lord Jisber, the cables inform ae, has tendered ble resig uation, but it does not get appear to have been rocej ted, while Mr. Churchill is already mentioned in carrent gossip as being marked out for a new port in a Coalition Cabinet. Though the idea of a Coalition, or Nations), as distinct from a Party Government for the duri tion of the war has been often suggested, its relation to the orisis at the Admiralty, in con Inaction with which the proposal it mentioned as taking practical shape, is no definitely stated. Ever since the war begao, in fact, it has been felt that the solor din tio of party politics would find its best expression: in a ut D= Party Cabinet, snd it may well ba supposed that if the arrangemente for a reorganiss tion of the Cabinet are so far advanced se yesterday's cables suggested, this has been the result fromewhat protracted discussion end negatistieno

The vision of that desirable con- Pammation raises the question of finding sufficielt field on which to employ our new implements, of which there will te muliitu- des.
