"Ship Etiquette.

Such a charge as that which was brought before the Hazine | Court on Friday, when the chief engineer of a ship had his certifi cats suspended for six roomthis for disobeying the lawful commands of the captam, in fortănately of rare occurrence nowadays. There was a time, of course, in the mercantile service when friction | between the deck and the engine- room was irritatingly frequent, and discipline, one of the primary smentisis of safety at sex, menffered. in consequence. However, that day is happily past and as a general rule between dock and an gine room the utmost goodwill prevails. The introduction of the stearn- angine wa до morg favoured by the old-time naviga tor than the control of one who "know nothing about angines" was relished by those who had the running of them.

naturally excited mach caricsity as to the purpors of the Mission, Obviously something of great moment was under consideration, but when it was suggested that the Mission was in connection with certain suggestions made by Germany to the King of Belgium for area'oration of peace between the two countries, the story seamed scarcely credible. For what would Germany gain by Belgium's submission? And what would Belgium gain? According to the story which comes from Italy, Germany offers to the King of the Belgians the restoration of his country and a large indemnity, in return for economic and com- mercial privileges which will practically transform some of the Belgian ports, especially Antwerp, into German traffic centres. It should follow from the scceptance of these terms that all German troops would be immediately withdrawn from Belgium--with the result that the raison d'etre· for Great Britain's intervention would disappear
