ANGLO-AMERICAN UNITY.

BRILLIANT SPEECH BY THE US

M. J W Davis, the new United State, Ambassador, made big, Arst public speech in Great Britain at a luncheon given by the Pilgrims of Great Britain at the Savoy Hotel, the Duke of Con Banght presiding. A very large and in Buential company assembled

AMBASSADORS' FUNCTIONS,

Earl Curzon proposed the health of the

American Ambassador. He said: The Ambassador is the latest of a long line of eminent men who in a similar capa city have been deputed by his Govern ment 10 cume here. It is a platitude to pay the America is a country with the greatest resources in the world resources of men, material, woney, moral, and spiritual resources--bug nothing during my experience of public life hac mrack

Be more remarkable Tan the unex Bausted reservoir of public men whom America has at her disposal to send out

un important diplomatic functions to the yarians countries of the world.

The

United States bas, I believe, no diplo utie rice in the old sense of the term. They are said to look rather askance at the old fashioned formularies and waya 1 believe of European diplomery, and their Ambassadors and Envoys are liable to be displaced and replaced whenever a Dew Government enters into power. But that does not seem to matter the least in the world, for whatever the demand the supply is forthcoming, and this I will au, and yer will adore, that in her choice of diplomatic representatives Ameriou always gives the best to us.

to any other that the world will have to look in future as the guarding and trus tee of the liberties and life, very likely even the frontiers, of the new nationali- ties, who have struggled into existence, and whose future we have have to secure. These are no new reflections. They are the accepted commonplaces of the best minds on both sides. (Cheers.)

DIFFICULTIES AHEAD.

The moment a treaty signed the dif- fealtice will begin. The great war work will be the post-peace work. All sorts of attempts will be made to sow dissensions between your country and mine. They are already being started by an active German propaganda. There will always be differences of opinion, of points of view, of temperament, of interests, be tween our two countries. But I stand here on behalf of the Foreign Office to gay tint these are merely as grains of friendship and true union between your enuntry and ours. (Cheers.) We look to you to remind us of the true things, the big things, the material things, that he atend. We regard you

the custodian

of the meble principles which have fallen in this entry and elsewhere from the ps of your own President, and we treat you as a partner in the great task which devalves upon us both (Cheers.)

Without taking so much as a single-leaf from the well-earned laurels that crown the victoriona brows of heroic France, or Italy, or Belgium, or Serbin, or others of the Allice, is it too much to para phrase the words of the dying Pitt, and say that England has saved herself by her exertions, and may well have saved the world by her example" (Cheers.)

We had to learn from you how to turn our plouglehares inte swords, and into spears our pruning hooks.

AMERICA IN THE WAR.

I come to you with the title of Ameri can Ambassador, but I am in truth only the last of many whom my country has lately sent. With the aid of your gallant sailors and stamen, she has despatched abroad within the last eighteen months 2,000,000 others, whose diplomacy is of the most practical kind. They came, I spirit fondly believe, with all the seat and of true Crusaders, and they left behind ready for the equally many Hire adventure. We are not ashamed of
