SENTIMENTS OF THE FOREIGN PRESS,

LONDON, July 17th,

Nearly all the American and Continental newspapers contain appreciative, articles on Loid Salisbury. They dwell at length on his supreme statesmanship and the enduring work he has accomplished as an empire builder Many papers place him on a plane with the greatest statesmen of the century, and attribute to him more than to any member of his Cabinets the happy issue of many imbroglios in which England has been involved during the last decades. The Continental Press is amazed that a political change of such far-reaching in partance is accepted in England in a spirit of equanimity

A hue and cry has been raised against the revival of an old decree restricting the freedom of the Government employees from going beyond the limits of Macão without previous leave being ‹btained from the Gover nor himself. With just cause is this most obnoxious measure regarded as an unconstitu tional attempt to rob the citizens of the inalien- able right of individual liberty,
