THE POET LAUREATE.
London, 29th February. Alfred Austin, Poet Laureate, is still meeting with much ridiculo, especially régarding us effusion over Jameson's raid. So much so that the matter finally reached the House of Complong mona yesterday when Mr. J. Parker Smith, Lib.
oral-Unionist, member for the Patrick Division of Lanarkshire, asked the Government for in- formation regarding the harcateship. He mug- gosted that Mr. Austin's patriotic ballads should Le submitted to the censorship of the Lord
Chamberlain, or, ho airily added, dome other Parnellite mer for the South Division of Donegal, seked if the Laurente's utterances were not privileged, inch as he wea the substilats for a court jester. Mr. A. J. Balfour, replying for the Government, said he did not think any department of the Government was expreally qualifiori for a poetical censorship. The incident orensióned much laughter and if the unfor tuante Prot Taureate had been parinitted to, hear the criticisms passed upon his verse there is no doubt be would have felt extremely na comfortably, even if possessed of the great gift

GREAT DRITALY AND GERMANÝ,
Berliu, Sth February.
The convictim is fast growing home that Groet Britain's hostilo attitude to Germany must be considered a polítical factor of perma Denes, and that the friendly entanto which has recently grown out of prenta between Germany, Russia, and Franco must be made a lasting feature of Germany's foreign policy.. The cor respondent of the Associated Press in this oily has heou informed by an oðiðjail of the foreign office that the Emperor gives tangible expres sion of his desire for clear and more amicablo relations with Russia, in entrusting to Ganeral Von Werder, formerly" German: Ambassadvé at St. Petersburg, and sow the guest of the Caar, an autograph letter to Nicholná IL, in which Emperor William expresses bis friend ship for the Cat, and promises to attend the coronation fetes at Moscow. This is meet significant, as it is the first time in history, that
• German Emperor or King of Prusia has personally witnessed the esronation of a Czar, And the Emperor will thereby testify openly to bis with lot more intimate Russo-Gořínían rela tions. General Von Werder will also be the "Czar's guest throughout the coronation fetes. 2 STRENGTHENING THE GERMAN NAVY,
Berlin, 29th February The Emperor's. determination to render the German nary more formidable, and to push the colonial policy of the Empire, is shown in Eis tetogen in reply to a despite of congratula tion on the subject from the Hamburg Colonial "Society, to thip-tologram His Majesty gjoke of the necesse tynt lequately brane oceanis interests, and of tasting our
