Conscription is evidently becoming a burning question in England. There used to be a rude and inhuman eon’ scription for the navy under the form of impressment, and at one time the practice seems to have obtained forcing vagrants into the army. But hitherto regular conscription has been “(W _n_IEnIoAL. DR. H. H. GRAHAM. " â€"â€"x.n.,c. 3L, M n. c s, Eng.,1u. c. P. .33., Our, r. 'r. 'M; s.â€"-~ HYSICIAN, SURGEON St ACCOUCH- our. Office.

' it ever presented itself, has been reject- ed with aversion. Still, if Great Britain means to send out great armies, con- scription must come. The country is now so denuded of troops for a distant war with a petty State that if reliance is to be placed on what military autho- ritiesâ€"the Duke of Wellington among themâ€"have said, the country is not safe against invasion by an enemy willing to sacrifice his fleet. What havoc the presence of an invader, even for a short time, would make in that swarming hive of industry. may be easily conceiv- ed. Yet, conscription in the case of Great Britain would be fraught with peculiar evils. The German eonscript remains in his own country, andto some extent under the guardian influences of his home. So for the most part does the French conseript, though it may be his fate to be sent to Algeria, where barrack life, according to all accounts, is physically and morally vile. The British conscript would have to be sent to tropical regions, for from home influ- ences and exposed not only to a bane- ful climate, but to the temptations which fill the army hospitals of India with disease. Moreover, it has been truly observed, that the social structure of Great Britain and the industrial oc- cupation of her people are peculiarly unsuited to the system. Nevertheless, if the present policy prevails, conscription must come, and fifths colonies are to be fronted as military dependencies. they must expect to be included in the meas- ureâ€"Prof. Goldwt'n Smith. - DRv.

Then- the seas swept by hostile cruisers when, "f vices and unknown to England. and the idea, if ’tesidences , ' policy. Then again, there" is Bradfordâ€"an- other English city. Its corporation is the owner of all the monopolies. It has owned the water supply since 1854, the gas supply since 1869. The corporation has retained exclusive control of the two roads by making its own tramweye and electric lights. It also owns and manages numbers of bath-houses, launn dries and other conveniences for the benefit of the :working classes. The corporation manages these departments on the principle, not that a profit is to be made out of them, but that the poor- est inhabitants are to be provided with the accommodations of civilized life at as small a cost as possible. Next, in order, may be mentioned the cities of Manchester, Leeds and Glas- gow; allgoverned by the vigorous and enlightened policy of socialistio laws. In these great centers 0! industry hand- some streets have been constructed for the accommodation of the poor, in the place‘oi' myriads of filthy courts and alleys, thereby reducing insanitary house property to a minimum. The municipal government of those cities own the street railways, and the laborer can ride on the cars at a half-penny a mile. In the some manner gas, coal, water. baths and laundry work are un~ der the government control, and are dispensed to working men at cost price! All these socialistic triumphs are care- fully concealed from nonworking classes by the orgahs and beneficiaries of capitalism. Sham patriotism and vein- glnry are now the order of the day. Our so-called “glorious popular insti- tutions ” form a theme for the inflated rhetoric of pensioners and politicians on every public occasion. Under the dictation of the monied power our pub- lic schools have become hot-beds of deception and toad-eating. We are constantly hearing of im~ mense sums of money being donated by plutocrats to universities. _ The result is that no professor in these institutions dare give utterance to any truth that tends to expose the fraudulent capacity of a pampered, and privileged minority. Under these abnormal conditions our selfish and Sensuous propensities have been developed pith marvelous'rapid'~ ity. In the frahtic pursuit of wealth, practices which deprave the best feelings of human nature, are fos- tered to an extent never before known to any age or country. One of the most serious Features of the situation is that the more people are plundered and enslaved by capitalism, the louder be come the exclamations and boastiugs of freedom lâ€"C/Larles Trench in Appeal to Reason. «.‘v The Government Hypnotized. John Burns, the famous London la- bor leader in the London Council and in Parliament, says of the war in the Transvaal : " So tar as the nation is concerned, the loss of prestige by the war already exceeds the material gains sought to be achieved, while the fact that it is pos- sible for a few capitalists so to zchloro. form the Colonial Office and hypnotize the Government as practically to act the War Office to further their schemes at the nation’s expense, is uddItlmmI proof that Parliament needs fewer men ot'tho type who upholl a war rashly provoked in the interests of a stnall class against a people who have prowd themselves to be as brave as they are humane. I believe, when the jinro lever is overâ€"and it is disappearing fastâ€"when conscription is introduced and the Empire is further belittlcd by concessions to Germany, the electors will endorse the action I have taken in protesting against a war that has only been defended by ignorance or interest at the instigation of newspapers no dishonest as their reports are untrue.” 0-...-. 7...... According to a despatch from Rennes, a factory there has received an order from the Transvaal Government for 150,000 artillery shells. An army order issued in London inâ€" vites the reservists to rejoin the colors for a year for home defence, and odors £22 bounty to those who do so.
