Every ecumenical conference is a distinct #tep in the direction not or.Iyot tbe unification of the church, but of the uni: ation of humanity Assembling from conn tre* unlike in their civil institu-tiens, their ch ircfc not wholly in accord as to \u2018.octnne and church order, you come together to rind that the unlikenrss is not #0 great as you t ad tOoueht, (cries of 4i hear, bear,\u201d from the English delegaies) and to find this common sjmpathy and common purpose greater and larger than you had thought; Urge enough pnsently to overspread and extinguish \u2022»L these traneitory lesions an 1 divisions.(Applause ) istbrsatiokal arritratiox.I am glad to know that as the followers of Wesley, whos- hymns we sing, you have been in consultation as to the m- thod and time when these minor divisions among vou may be oblitera\u2019ed.It is the natural order that subdivisions should be wiped out before theg-and divisions of the churcn can be united.Who loe-» not greatly r-joice that the controversial teaching of the church is less than it once was that we hear more of the work of tbe Master and His teachings of lov*- and duty than of hair-stliting and theological dissensions.You have to-day as a theme of discussion the subject of international arbitration, aad this being a public and enlarged use of the word perhaps makes my presence here as on off'-er of tbe United Slates especially appropriate.(Applause ) cosraaaxc» o# avrrzcax itatu.41 This subject is one which has long attracted the attention, and, I think I may eav, has as greatly attracted the interest and adherence of the United States as that of any other Christian power in the world.It is known to you all that in the recent conference of the American state* at Washington a proposition was distinctly made\u2014and adopted by the ad Lerence of all, or nearly all, of the governments represented\u2014that as applied to this hemisphere all international disputes should be settled by arbitration.Of course there are limitations aa yet in the nature of thing# to the complete consummation aud general adoption of such a seb-me.it is quite possible to sppiy arbitration toa diiput-.-aa to a boundary line.\t' IN T B H X A T10 N A I.FKt\u2019D.PLAIN TALK.National says \u201c Mr.Tho*.McUreevy, who has b» t il put out of the House ol Common#, has had the audacity to write to the Auditor General, asking him to forward the balance of his pnrliitiiu-utary indemnity We advise the Auditor General to keep tLe $7n0 asked ms an account on the timounts stolen from the country by the ex-member for Quebec West.That will he so much saved.\" Miscellaneous.BACK AGAIN TO Ol K 01.1» UTOHi:, 1 SIM mill Kixo NOTH»: Ot WT.*11(1 M.A KKW Dooms KA.ST OK THK KltK.VCH « III KCH AM* WE AUK Now BETTER 1'RKPAItKI) THAN EVER To .SERVE THE l'Eoi'I.E E Al II n.AT HAVINt: BEEN CHANCED A\\U |*Ell I'ECTI.Y AllllAXGKD To MEET THE RE Ml'I HEM ENTS OK OIR CRoVYINC IIL'SINESs.IK YOU WANT MTOtM.I tm»»: IS, it KM n KE.oR ANYTHING KoR THE HOME.Yot'K IN TERESTS SHOULD DRIFT YOU OUR WAY.REMEMRERWE SELL ANYTHING KoR THE HOUSEHOLD ON EASY TERMS AT < tell I\u2019KIS'KAa PASSENGER ei.kvator.METROPOLITAN MFC.CO.-l\u2018,7.- Educational.** il» VI\tEvinliu- I.I ,* ,.ht\t., 1 ».I v» M ¦\t\\\\ M .\t.u.I'r \u201d ' ih Arilhnitti.\t*] |i ,y i, .i\t,3 WM J N M l: M i; i |; i r 1\t'\t\u201d \\ '\u2022 1 \u2019 : \u2022 \u2019\t¦ I\u2022 ¦ ¦ ¦ I ¦ rr ha» .u .; \u2022 WANTED I.» .vi-n.\u201e, ,-.1 tt-'r\tay RAPHAEL\u2019S ART CLAS»SE8 \u2019 V .\t0th (KToKEK #7r5r\u2019v*.\u2022 th,','r\u201d,ush\tm Drawing amt Paintinc fr.tn Nature \u2022ill utroi» apply ut\t'\"K Mlmllo.tf4 HI.SwIlieHne »lr#M-l.EVENING CLASSES FOR LADIES AND GENTLEMEN -AT- /Z.,/ ' \u2022 - tlciorli* M| a arc.rorner S'ralK »l.THOROI GH « ommkRUIAI.UOURsE m|#i»i:t HAND.TYPEWRITING.ENGLISH AND FRENCH.H-autihil R.-.m#.wr l.y |,tt., little ,t 1(11».ItU'lfflf.tilllf-gr, MONTREAL TrUphime No 2ftt»i Dill.AW ARK vt Hl\u2019DHON R.|{ \u2014* a i* - I.AKK.s ( IIAMPL.MN AND GEORG I!

Park.There are aldermen enough in the City Council imbued with McNameeism to be a warning to voters in St Ann s Ward not to add him to their nambsr.It is a suspicious circumstance of itself that these men are endeavoring to elect Mr.McNamee.Mr.Nolans actions and qualifications are not as public as Mr McNamse\u2019s.He acknowledges the fact that be did wrong in being for siztoau mouths a liquor seller and says that be gave up tavern keeping on principle.He points to s fulfilled promise on his part, and declares that, If elected, he will do his utmost for temperance and that ha will seek to

of the maunders of the canal allowing the manufac turers to «Iraw olf the water and of miking im\\igation a secondary instead of a pri uury consideration !\t1 he Cornwall Board of 1 rade talks about the depth of the \\« ater on the tills at the entrance to the canals being dependent upon the height of w ater in the river and being beyond the power of the mao agora to control, which no one denies, and tin I oat ow ners are quite willing to take the risk of sticking on the sill.They carry their boats over the sills all right, and even pass what the superintendents tell them are the tad points in the canal only to find themselves aground at some place where there is supposed to be plenty of water.It is known that while barges have been scraping the canal bottom mills have gone on drawing oil w ater,even in spite of the remonstrances of the superintendent.There is no Mr.Conw ay on cither of these canals to spike the gates wlim the manufacturers will take no oth< r denial.The manufacturers of Cornwall strike the vessel owners over the shoulders of the B i.'ness, and want an inspector appointed who will prevent boat-s go irg into the Canal if he thinks they arc drawing too much water.Such an officer would, of course, be appointed for his politi cal services, and he would, doubtless, serve the local interests as etliciently as do other such c dice holders, who act as if they thought that canals were built not for purposes of navigation but as mill fiumes.It would suit the purpose of the manufacturers to have a local official appointed with power to prevent vessels from entering the canals, but it would not suit the vessel owners.The vessel owners and all interested in naviga tien would rather have one of their own num her appointed to inspect the flume gates and order them to be closed down when neces sary.It is also noticeable that the Cornwall Ikard of Trade virtually confess inelliclent management in the last paragraph of their resolution ; it is years since the ll\u2019itnu* first urged the establishment of telephone wires along the canals.THE \"ROOF OF THE WORLD.\u201d THE CORNWALL CANAL.The resolutions of the Cornwall Board of Trade In regard to the mismanagement of the Cornwall and Morrieburgcanals, are such as the local manufacturers of these towns, Interested In the sncceaa of the manufactories but not in navigation, might be expected to past It nevsr Kerns to occur to them that the charges made by the H'iDuss cannot, in tbe nature of them, be refuted by assertions.Is it cot a fact that both the managers of the Cornwall and Morrisburg canals were appointed from purely political considerations instead of bavin* been chosen, as they should have been, because of their qualifications for the office * Is it not true that the manege ment of these canals has been for the last two years a constant source of trouble to navigation, that navigation has been interrupted again and again, that the Government have been entreated almost annually to send outside engineers and canal managers to Investigate, advise and even manage the repairing of theae canals, and that the ship ping interests of the Dominion hare almost There is a district of Central Asia which in oriental phrase is called the \u201cRoof of the World, and three or four nations, like so many cats on the roof of a shed,are quarrelling noisily over it at the present time.The importance of the Pamir plateau lies in its position.It is the core of the mountain system of Asia, and the divide of the river systems of Central Asia.The lofty, snow capped range of the Hindoo Kooab, which divides Afghani stan and forms a real barrier against Russia's advances into India, the Thian Shan range, which separates Chinese Mongolia from Rus-sian Turkestan and Siberia.theAltynTagh and Kuen Luen,which divide MongoliafromThibet and tbe Himalaya mountains, which form the northern frontier of British India, all meet, or nearly meet, at the Pamir.This steppe, or table land, the highest, perhaps, in the world, whose valleys even are ten to fifteen thousand feet above the level of the sea and the summits of whose domes\u2014like mountains, are four or five thousand feel higher still, overlooks, as a shed roof might overlook so many back yards, fair and fertile provinces belonging to Great Britain, Russia, China and Afghanistan.The fertile vale of Cashmere, the most beautiful spot on earth, perhaps, lies spread out to the south of it, to the east is Kashgar, which even Russia, with the help of its Mohammedan peoples, could not wrest from Chins, while to the north and north w«wit lie the ancient provinces of 'arafshan, with Samarkand and Ferghana with Kokun, and to the west and south-west is the Afghan province of Kunduz.These names ere all full of the poetry of ancient history and legend.Two of tbe moat famous of the world's rivers have their fountains in this great plateau, the Oxus and Indus, and the Yarkand and Kashgar, which lose themselves in the attempt to water the ( hinese desert of Gobi, begin on its eastern slopes.The Pamir la between forty and fifty thousand square miles in extent, or about the size of Nova Scotia and NewBruns wick together, but with the exception of narrow stripe of the valleys along the margins of the rivers in early summer, it is a barren, bleak, rocky, highland, with dome like mountain rangea running from south west to north-east, and dividing it up into a series of valleys.A few nomadic tribes, who are made to pay tribute to the Ameer, find grazing lande for their flocks at certain seasons on some of its slopes.Otherwise tbe Pamir is s waste wilderness, without even any bowling, where men have never lived and never will live.Its lonely solitudes have been Intruded upon only by Irrepressible Russian and English military explorers of Turkestan and British India.The greater part of it was supposed to be within the ter ri tories of the Emperor of China and the Ameer of Afghanistan.But not much real knowledge was possessed of the country except by a couple or three Englishmen and one or two Russians who had travelled in It.M-ips of it were in existence, but these were inaccurate, being drawn according to Information obtained from native sourcee.A few years ago the British and Russians in settling the Afghan question and the sphere of each power in Central Asia, agreed that the Iron tier in the Pamir should be the main body of the Oius river to its source in Lake Victoria.A few months ago not only Russian explorers but Russian military expeditions were found not only south of tha Oxus, but on the southern slope of the Hindoo Kooab Mountains.Tlwy were »\u2022 impelled to with-diaw to the north of the most southern tributary of the Oxus, but refused to go back further, though the p evinces north and west of that brunch had loi.g been governed by tbe Ameer- It lias siu.-e Uen discovered by Biitisluiiplumats that th vm horn tribut »iy, while not the maiu stir.in of in Oxus, which lies considerably to thu ii'irtn and west, is the tributary which rises in Lake Victoria.It appears probable, therefore, that the British and the Afghans have, for want of knowledge, sacrificed the most valuable portion ot the Pamir and thu part which is most necessary to their protection against Russia, for it is on the south west slope of the Hindoo Koosh mountains, almost right up to which Russian frontiers have thus been established, in one point at least.There are some comparatively easy passes through the Hindoo koosh mountains to the Afghan province of Kaliristan, just be yond which is British India.Tho passes into Cashmere seem difficult if not impossible and, besides, Great Britain has established a strong military station far up the valley at Gilgit, which lies almost under the mountains of the Pamir.To carry an army into Afghanistan by way of the Pamir while Herat or even Candahur remained in the hands of the British would be dangerous as a force in such a position would be outflanked.The Russian military explorers have not only come into collision with Afghan and British outposts but also with Chinese ones, whom they bribed.Th«- Chinese authorities have become alarmed, and Russia will have to maintain her claims against the united diplomatic forces of Great Britain, China and Afghanistan.Russia will not provoke a quarrel with China in the Pamir.It is only a few years since the Chinese annihilated the rebels of K ash gar, who were instigated and led by Russian agents, and they overwhelmed by force of numbers the Russian forces which tried to hold Kuldja ; wave after wave of Chinese soldiers threw themselves upon the Russians until the latter were swept away.In view of the fact that Kuldja is about two thousand five hundred miles from Pekin across deserts and mounuins innocent of railways, or even highways, this exhibition of force at the ox tremlty of the Empire was a paralyzing sur prise to Russia ami Europe, which neither have forgotten.Even if Russia does main tain its position on the roof of the world, it will not find it either easy or safe to drop down into the fertile back gardens of her neighbors.The prestige of such a position is, however, something in Europe, and much, if far from everything, in Asia.BLADHK LANK KfcKKHKin HACK Til THK BOLD OOMUITTIK \u2014 THK HKOIKIKTOKH\u2019
