Lord RUSSELL's address was an oratorical effort worthy of the speaker and of his position, of his subject. and of his audience, but it throws no fur- ther light on the question than we had before. There was no detailed discussion of the nature and limits of International Arbitration, no examination of the various suggestions put forward for the selection of the Judges who are to constitute this great International Court; of the pres liminary steps that must be taken before a bearing; of the procedure of the Court; of the sanctions that are to carry into effective operation its decisions.

Lord RussILL dilated on the advantages of arbitration and mediation between nations. He detalled the history of the movement in its various, phases up to date. He indicated that it was not and, from the nature of things, could never be applicable in certain classes of international troubles; but he did pot define these. To have attempted to do so would have been, perhaps, to have veatured on very delicate ground and to have run the risk of alienating the feelings of those he most desired to conciliate. He pointed out that there were worse evils ihan war with all its horrors—“the dis- | honour of a great nation; the triumph of an unrighteous cause; the perpetration of hopeless and debasing tyranny."

The troublesome and difficult question of Chinese emigration to the United States and to the Canadas appears to be coming to the front again. Li HUNG-CHANG in his journey through Canada has been anxiously inquiring as to the truth of the report that the poll tax levied on Chinese Immigrants was about to be raised from $50 to $500, a sum which would almost seem prohibitive.
