often taken out of mere curiosity, a young man, a mere child, is declared to be a political criminal. We have political criminals who are only four "teen years old, who are consigned to cellular confinement. The Goverment that rules 100,000,000 people trembles before children. In our country people are sent for twelve years to Eastern Siberia for offences, which in Austila would be punished by two weeks' simple imprison. ment. The youth of the country thus trampled upon become red revolutionists.

CIVILISING" AFRICA.
It
"The blessings of civilisation" are being rapidly diffused in Africa. The modern system is there operating in all its baneful vigour. Its Instruments are, mainly rum, gunpowder, and is considerably true religion, Each article adulterated. Sometimes one, sometimes another, is presented first. But generally true religion is the preliminary in instances when the introduc- tion of gunpowder or rum would involve the civilisers in danger. It would be a tedious task to trace the history of European and Asiatic aggression in. Africa. From the earliest ages of which any records are preserved the "Dark Continent "has been the human bunting-ground of the Caucasian race. has been a vast preserve of gold, ivory and slaves. Times change, and with them cus toms alter. A wave of hypocrisy has flowed over Europe. The nations are all Tartuffes to- day. They profess the principles of Wilberforce and Romilly as voiced by William Cow r They" would not own a slave to till their ground for all the wealth that sinews bought and sold have ever earned." Great Britain makes especial parade of her virtuc. She it was that led the way to the abolition of negro slavery. abolished the slave trade in 1807, declared the traffic by her subjects to be felony in 1811 in 1824 pronounced it piracy, and in 1834 emanci pated 800,000 negroes in the West Indies, Compen, sating the slave-owners by a grant of £20,000,00
which the British white slaves, the tax-payers, had to provide. At present we find her competing with other nations to enslave whole popula- tions of negroes. Of course the process bears different name.
"Steal" is an awkward word Convey, the wise term it" Enslave "sounds villainously Extend the sphere of British interests is a handsome euphuism. That is what's the matter just at present in equatorial Africa. Great Britain and Portugal have been snarling at one another because each wants to "extend the sphere" of its influence.

That the robbers will quarrel, over the apper- tionment of the spoils now being seized f inevitable. Shortly, every one of the predatory and filibustering powers of Europe will be gorged with continents. There will be no territories, peopled by simple or fechle races to divide. Thereupon-apart from the squabbles sure to occur while the gorging is in process-there will be a straggle as to who shall have the lot. This will be a bigger affair than Great Britain bas had on her bands since she has been a nation. She will have to develope the force of a contin- ental power, and maintain on land the supremacy which she has hitherto only had at sea. The matter is no particular business of ours-in Australia.. But while the existing political connection continues any belligerent power can make it particularly our business. Should Germany and England quarrel about the exact amount of land and niggers each "bring under the scope of her is to influe ce" in equatorial Africa, the former power might waken up the latter by operation against Australia, just as the other day when Major Serpo Pinto made himself un- pleasant in the heart of Africa, the British talked of bombarding Lisbon and making a grab at the Azores. The spirit of grab is a lot too lively at present to leave much chance of a peaceful century from 1899 forward. The United States of America will not be in it with respect to Asian or African troubles, and if the affairs of this part of the world were but wisely, managed during the next ten years the United States of Australia might be out of it also.-Sydney Bulletin.

the unfortunate negra is justified. It is elegantly VICTORIAY I
expressed by Hayley, the biographer of Cowper. This philanthropical souffle-buster explains that Great Britain is bound to bring Africa under the scope of her influence, by way of com- pensation for having formerly extended the scape of her, influence over the niggers to the extent of kidnapping them and keeping them in slavery till they died. "Let us not think," crie this worthy ass, "that we have discharged the debt by an act of emancipation. In conferring the boon of liberty, we restore only that of which they ought never to have been deprived. Ye have granted compensation to the proprietor, but where is the compensation to the negro i Never will the accumulated wrongs of ages be redressed tille any to the sable sons of Africa, *Behold your God!' Let their minds be expanded instruction, and the Bible-that great charter by
of salvation-be circulated, that thus Great Britain may acquire a lasting an honourable
title to their gratitude and love.

The missionary goes first with the Bible for his 3,127 Tone Register, Captain Wallace, will be sole weapon. The savage drinks the water of life for a while-and then eats the reverend turocock. Or he keeps the holy man prisoner, as did Theodore, of Abyssinia. Thereupon Exeter Hall gets up on its hind legs and bowls for "blood and fire." like the Salvation Army at full moon. Then the gunpowder stage is blood- entered upon. The butchers in coloured clothes are sent along and with prodigious valour shoot down as many niggers as they like, if these are perceived, through a field-glass, to wave their spears three-quarters of a mile away. This Idils off comparatively few. But the succeeding stage wipes out the aborigines more rapidly than Russian influenza makes a crowned-head sneeze its royal nose off-more rapidly, in fact, than a light going out plunges an Omnipotent Czar into epileptic fits. This is the Rum and Friendship stage. It is peculiarly deadly. Ita lethal effects have of late. been much intensified by the plan. of leasing a whole territory populated by two or three mutually hostile clans, to a syndicate of traders. Especially deadly in this system when the lease is defined on the map by an official who never was nearer Africa than Tottenham Court Road, and whose laforma tion about its inhabitants.
