as time liberal and broad mindedrepreson-

we have received our laws. Few speakers
in England are as polished orators as the
Chief .Justice , and every address and ro-
spouse which ho has ntado since his arrival -
rival on our shores him redounded at once
to his honesty , his culture and his
breadth of thought.
Perhaps the best speech made by Chief
Juatico Coleridge was that delivered at
the Academy of Music in New York. It

abounded with ideas But what made it
great was its thorough honesty. Ile spoke
as an Englishutarm , lIe told the truth as
to saw it withuubapology or emasculation.
And he showed a rare connpruhoaeioi of
the essential facts of the situation
he was obliged to face. He had the
courage to say emphatically that lie
sympathized more with John ljright that
with Gladstone , and to confess that in a
nation ruled by aristocrats and titled
nobodies le is a Radical. That is some-
thing.
The beat timing in Chief .lustico Colo-
ridgo's speech ! , however , was what lee
said out the greatness of this country.
Tune question he lead boot repeatedly
asked was if to was not surprised at the
greatness of this country. But lie was
not affected by its bigness. It is not so
big asAfrica or ltussia. Norwas lee particularly -
ticularly impressed with our millionaires ;

rather moan mud measly sot in compari

was let lute the canal from time Leeclthurg

Freeport the town was found in full holiday -
day dress. Flags ware waving and drums
were beating in honor of the occasion. A
great dinner was given and eloquent
speeches were nindo. At night the town
was illuminated and agreatballwas given
