It may seem that the pre- sent is not a time to press our rights to the furthest limit; yet we may reasonally ask ourselves, Is any botter likely to occur. Sooner or later the contest may become one of life or death, with this difference too to our disadvantage, that, however we may be Bituxted, Russia will inevitably be in-a better position.

It has not been the policy of Bussin in the past to adopt hostile measures when craft will suit her equally well, and the present is no exception to the rule.
