His lonnnyroi aliuut. a triple alliance with (icrmnny, Kngland ami America would kill such a project, re gardless ol' its reputed commendable features, practicability, und earnest de sirability. Am?rica is not ready lor any entangling alliance, notwithstand ing tho changed conditions in her for eign affair for the reason that she has more to lose by such an agreement than she can gain. The party of trusts and protection to infant (?) industries is now about to engage in railroading through Congress the ship subsidy bill, which has for its object the taxing of tho American people to enable Mark Uanna and oth er ship-builders ti? compete with Euro pean shippers in tho carrying trade, lt is also to tax thc American that the European may get correspondingly cheaper goods. The obi tariff war-cry has, gotten to bo such a bug-a-boo to t hf American people that Home .veneer? ed substitute must bo presented, and this is what they have brought. The fact that a ship-building trust has al ready been formed lends color to the belief that a desperate, concerted steal is en tapis, lt also lends force to thc argument in favor of governmental ownership of ship, railway, telegraph and ?'able lines. There are still "wars and rumors of wars." Now comes a report from our brethren of the Solus saying the is land ison the very verge of bloody strife. As yet particulars are very meagre ami little is known of the trou ble. The tuisiis helli is stated by the report to be as follows : A number of the slaves of Pato .Jakanin, uni' nf the richest anil most influential datos nu tho island, having been sent to a purni near liv to catch a mess of fish for their master, wen- returning homo with a half-dozen blue cats ami seven or eight knotty heads when they wen* accosted by the soldiers of the Sultan who had likewise been sent out on a less successful mission ami ordered to surrender together with their provis ions. This they declined to do, amia pitched battle ensued, resulting in the defeat of tho dato*s slaves and the confiscation of their booty. When the injured dato sat down to dinner, he found only bacon, corn-bread and tur nip salid on the table. "Bring in tho fish,'1 he roared, "I'm tired of this stuff," and at the same time pushing it away from bim. When the coo'.; ex plained to him that there were no tish he was exceedingly wroth, and would have torn his servants to pieces, but their timely explanation transferred his wrath. Reaching behind tho dour he took his hickory stick and placed a pair ol'brass knne.ks in his pocket and sallied forth whistling "Lo, thu Con quering Hero Comes." Reaching tho .Sultan's house, bo found lying under the kitchen window tho tell-tale tish bones, which was evidence sufficient to justify a declaration of war. Just at this juncture, however, tho Sultan's bull dog broke looso or (ns tho dato's fr.ends declare) was purposely turned loose, when be hurriedly retreated to his own domain to write a formal de claration of war. Tho conflict will bo watched with bato?! breath by the Eu ropean powers, and intervention may become necessary for the perpetuity of Europ.-an influence.
