Harper's Young People : The battle of the Nile wab fought August 1 , 1798 botweou the French und English iloots. Sir Horatio Nelson was in command of the latter , nnd as the engagement was about to begin ho exclaimed : "Victory or Westminster abbey ! " And victory it was. When Charles' IX. of Sweden , at the ago of 1 ! ) years , fought nntl defeated a largo body of Russians at Narva in 1700 , Peter the Great , who led his army , hau several horses shot under himand while exchanging a dead stood for a more use ful one after a repetition of the occur rence , ho remarked : "These people seem disposed to give mo exorcise. " And events proved the truth of the prophecy. The mace is an emblem of authority and iifeo in out- congress as well as in the English parliament , and though it is merely a symbol , it commands respect ; but it'was never so insulted as when plivui-'Uromwoll stalked into the Eng lish House to disperse the members and dissolve the parliament. The mace Iny in Its.regular place , and. when Cromwell siuy'lt , ho must liitvo sneered- the potty symbol , for ho called ono of his soldiers , and ordered , "Tako away that buublo. " So , as the mace was carried out , the doors were locked and parlia ment effectually dissolved. The message of Commodore Perry is bettor known. The battle of Lake Erie had taken place , and Iho British fleet were defeated. Thou the commodore sent to General Harrison , grandfather of the present president , his fnmous dis patch , "Wo have met the enemy , and they are ours. " It was but little longer than Caisar's , "I came , I saw , I con quered. " An English general , however , made the record for brevity when , nftor ho had conquered the province of Scindo in India , ho sent a punning dispatch in the ono word , Pocuavl , which , ns our- young Liatin students know , means , "I have sinned.

Until the liberal loaders hnvo examined the Boring son corre spondence , which Mr. Lowthcr promises to place in the hands of Parliament on Monday next , no particular notion will bo taken on tlio question. But from the cubic- dispatches giving the drift ot the correspondence ns laid before the United States sou- nto they have already determined n to ndopt nu altitude of oppo sition , A weak ago the liberal leaders were inclined to support Lord Salisbury and tha liberal organs , until yesterday , took n vlow adverse to the position nssumod by the United Slntcs government. Whether it ba policy that dictates this change ot front or n now sense of the Justldo of the American claims , it is certain that the loaders 'ot the opposition hnvo decided to nttacu Lord Salis bury. The whole toner ot opinions ex pressed in the lobby of tbo House of Com mons indicates that the opposition moans to solzo tbo chance to arrnli-n Lord Salisbury as pursuing n tloodloisly vexatious course in stead of assenting to the reasonable arrange ment offered by the Washington government. Implrml by ( iluilatono. Tomorrow's number of the Speaker , Mr. Gladstone's organ-will contain an Inspired nrliclo which , nftor analyzing evidence on seal killing , maintains that the renewal of the modus vivondi ought to bo nssontod to by the British government nnd continues : "Why should the government bo asicd to promote the success of Canadian adventurers who deliberately uudortaUo n dnnc-erous speculative enterprise of doubtful legality nnd of doubtful utility to mankind ) "At the outsldo the capital nnd outfit of tbo adventurers amount to l'U,000. ! Their success might make the fur seal iu extinct ns the 'dodo , ' nnd If the existence of the seal is at stake , how can damages bo measured I Wo are not going to war with the United States , not oven in the interest of the federa tion of the empire , and pending arbitration It is unjust to refuse to continue the arrange ment which was port of the condition under which arbitration was agreed on. " The unionist organ , tbo Spectator , natur ally takes the government's side , but will bavo only a brief note advocating n settle ment that Will open the sea to Canadian seal ers , with provision for .recompense to the Americans In the event of the decision of the aroitrators being against Great Britain. Lord Salisbury's reply to President Harri son's last note ought to have been in the pos session of the Washington cabinet todav. Although no ofllclal statement in regard to its character is obtainable , the belief of the inner ministerialist clrclo Is that Lord Salis bury will agree to nlneo nn embargo on Cana- diau sealing in the open sea provided the Uulted Statoi agrees to pay compensation If the arbitration decision bo against the Amer ican claims. An Aruioil Collision Not i\-pcctciil. : Whatever may bo the issue the idea of an armed collision is dismissed on all sides hero as supremely Improbable. Tonight's cable dispatches giving n formidable list of United States cruisers and revenue vessels preparing for Boring sea are received with Incredulous surprise. Wltbm the House of Commons interest in the matter centers solely on the question of how much party advantage may bo. derived from the controversy. Neither side has the remotest sense of any grave crisis impending affecting peace. Outside of the Parliament popular Interest in the Bering son question Is very slight. Replies to inquiries made at tbo admiralty do no support the rumor that orders bavo been sent to Admiral Holtbam of the Pacific squadron. On the contrary the officials now know nothing of any change in the program slnco it was llxed on January -7 and con firmed on March 8. At the latter -date the Warsprito , Molphomononna Champion wore under orders for Esquimault ; the Daphne was to remain at Esquimault ; the Nymph was to remain on the southern division and the Pheasant , which loft Esquimault Janu ary 20 for Honolulu , was to remain in Hawaiian waters for the present. Admiral Holtham's directions to the Champion . were to cruise off tbo coast of Central America and to join the flagship on March 10 and proceed north. His orders to the Melphomono nt Valparaiso , sent January 20 , were to sail for Esquimault. From the dates of thojo orders it is evident that the movements of these vessels cannot bo associated with an acute stai-o of the sealIng - Ing difficulty.It It U Only Gossip. Tomorrow's number of the Army and Navy Gnzotto will curtly dismiss tno matter with tbo observation that it Is a fuss over a polit ical question , and is more bluster , nnd tbnt tno rumors of naval movements nro only gossip. Tbo departure for Vancouver of Mr. Rose , clnlm settler to a marine Insurance company , nnd Treasury Clerk Goadowo is connected with a notice to Canadian sealers to file claims within a month ut the customs ofllco in Victoria. Sir Charles Tuppqr is the loading spirit in these orrangcuionts and ho has throughout been an aavocnto ot the government. Among bis suggestions is that to Lord Knutsford , tbo colonial secretary , to consider tbo per manent appointment of a Canadian attache to the staff of the British legation iii Wash ington to act ns special advisor in Canadian affairs. The majority of the members of the Tho- osopnlo society want Colonel Oloott to vacate the presidency'on May 1 arid W. Q. Judge , the secretary of the American section , to sue- coca him. Voting papers have been dis tributed nmoiig the branches of Europe. Mrs. Bosant and other members of Blavatsky ledge are enthusiastic for Judge , * The result of the voting will bo known on April 25 und will Do announced at tbo' ' American conven tion.
