ENGLAND'S INHERITANCE, Tlie extraordinarily scenes of the past two days, which for the time being found their fitting close yesterday inside tha walls of St. George's Chapel, Windsor, suggest reflection which will not easily die. To the maBses, yester day's aiowand solemn procession through London undoubtedly brought home to them the reality of a. lo3i which is personal aa well ns national. That the multitude not seized with the mere idle desire to gaze at a show was clear from tha extraordinary reverence of itB demeanour.

A visit paid to several points along the prescribed route and the testimony of close pbserirevs stationed elsewhere agree in recording the striking impression produced on suob vast masses, gathered from the poorer districts, all clad ia black, so far us their means admitted, 11 ever a voice was shrilly raised above the level of subdued conversation, it was promptly hushed, while if there were here and there isolated -bits of Lhe horseplay which is almost inseparable from big crowds, it was certainly not suffered to intrude within the confmoa aud approaches of the line of procession, which a mourning nation seemed by common consent to regard as sacred to sorrow. We prefer to dwell on this aspect of yesterday's! ceremony, lor although much might be said about the unique spectacle presented by eo many bovereigns, Potentates, and Princes vying one with another to do honour to the most revered of their number, Queen Victoria never failed to show that eha set most special store by the affection and loyalty of her poorer subjects. Of late years ncr health had prevented her from taking part in those public functions. which afford such gratification to the masses, who lore to gae on their Sovereign, and she learned to value a loyalty which, in these circumstances, could never abate, but remained still fresh aud true. It is in this that the lesson and example of our lute Sovereign will assuredly prove moat signifi cant and lasting.

Por it is in the hearts of the people that Monarchical Government stands most deeply and ineradicahly fixed. As Bacon truly says: "In the great trams of kingdoms and commonwealths it is in the power of princes or estates to ald amplitude aud greatness to their kingdoms." And Great Britain must count herself fortunate in tha in heritance of the rich example that our deceased Sovereign has left. It may seem indivious to attempt to draw a comparison between ourselves and our neighbours, but where the bounds between monarchical and constitutional rule are so nicely set as they are with us, the personal character of I the Bupreme ruler is mors thoroughly appreciated and a moro potent factor in the nation's welfare than nlsAwhprA. Tn nnr Kt rta if. will Iwe privilege to tread in the footsteps of his indefatigable mother, and to add ampii tude and greatness to her kingdom." King Edward VII.

has already given rory clear indications that he will not be found wanting in the dis charge of bis various functions. His Majesty has! also been credited with a liberality of sentiment' and a trust in the good sense of tha people that' would have seemed rash to tome of his prede cessors, but which will prove of the greatest service to him in the initiation of those personal acts of good taste that he is so well qualified to suggest. Although the future of Great Britain's Colonial Empire could scarcely have been contemplated uy viscount t. albans, we believe that our BOOTereigu muucuco in mis airccuon win Lena It' 1 Bmast nowerfullv to rivet the bonds between tha mother country and her dependencies, fc'ome publicist not long ago declared that no English man ought to be honoured with the seals of office of State, who had not qualified himself for his high duties by travelling round the globo and visiting every corner of the British Empire. We are afraid that so Btringent a qualification would rule out most of His Majesty's present Ministers Be this as it may, however, it is a matter of con gratulation that Edward and, we shonld add, his brother, the Duke of Conn aught, have been at such pains to make themselves acquainted with the territories, resources, and peoples of our colonial and other possessions.

The coming con stitutional problem is undoubtedly that of Imperial Federation, and though British states men may be favourably disposed towards it, on paper, we want the magical touch of personal ia-, flaence, such ag the King or his son can best exer cise, to produce a tactful and acceptable scheme. For this reason wa trust it may be found possible for the Duke of Cornwall and York, so soon as he has happily recovered from his present in' disposition, to carry out his statesmanlike inten tion of visiting Australia, in company with his charming consort. His Royal Higbness's bereavs- Bment, which is also that of the nation at large, has, it is true, plunged all into sorrow, but the best way of doing honour to those we wave loved and lost is to follow in 1 the path that they would most earnestly have wished. No one can doubt that Queen Victoria would i I hare desired that her grandson should fulfil the high mission that she imposed on him, coiile qui coute, and we cannot doubt that His Majesty wishes will run in the same line. As a further concession to the amour propri of the-Colonies would be graceful indeed if on the occasion of this Royal visit some title were devised to connect the great Canadian and Australian Federations with the present titular designation of the Sove reign ol the Empire.

The suggestion has already been made, hut the opportunity of entrusting the Duke of Cornwall and York with the task of its formal announcement seessB too appropriate to be missed. It is emphatic ally one of those considerate and gracious con cessions that her late Majesty would most strongly have approved of, and more especially if personally conveyed through her grandson to her subjects in those distant lands.

death of the Queen has received abroad. and particularly in Prance, a sympathetic and ikmoly recognition which we. suoula all acKnow-Iedee with eratitude. It is, however, instructive to note that it is tho unanimity of the expression of English loyalty, much more than its genuineness and. spontaneity, that has aroused foreign admiration.

In countries like Prance, where nnv and everv diifioulty of State is wel comed by the oppouents of the Govern ment as their opportunity, it seems a very strange thing that here, in England Radicals and Uonservauves, new-tangled socialists ana oia-fashioned Tories, Churchmen and Dissenters, should vie with each other ia eagerness to par their tribute of affectionate memory to the Quean we have lost, and of loyal regard to cue Iving we I a i naner it has been matter of comment that there uare saiiicu. uiuio kill uue j.iwiau uu.to- has been no disturbance, not even any attempt by this or that political party to exploit the Sovereign tor its own purposes, xnac it suouia nave oeen so excites no surnriae in Encrland, fortunately. at the same time Prenchmen, severely logical ub they are, do not despise the picturesque mediaeval formalities that follow the demise of the Crown, the cries of the neralds and he blare of the trumnet, thoueh the illusory phrases of feudal despotism sound a little hollow by the side of the of true constitutional sovereignty made solemnly hr the Kintr at his first council They also recognise, too, and their recognition is useful in reminding us of the fact (of which use and wont is apt to make vis forzetfnl). that the monarchy preserves not only continuity of functions to the national life, but dignity to the national executive. Some years ago the then Duke of Marlborough attracted attention by describing England as "an aristo cratic republic." If self-government and equality before the law for all citizens is the note of a renublic.

then the description mar pass but it is at any rate equally true if. equally true it, indeed. mot more true to Bpeak of it as a demo cratic monarchy. But whether you classify it. for scientific purposes, as one or the other.

it is differentiated from all other republics and from all other monarchies, br what Tennyson calls our loyal passion for our temperate kings." And tkis, thanks greatly to the lncomparaoie reign that closed last Tuesday, was never stronger than at the accession of Hing 11. A German Correspondent formerly with the Boers, who. after the surrender of the com mandos at ITomati-Poort to the Portuguese, was allowed by the British authorities to go to Pre toria, says that it is inconceivable how badly the Boers are informed, not only as to what is hap pening in the world generally, but even as to the military operations of the British. They seem utterly inclinable of comprehending the value of speedy and reliable information aB to what their adversaries are doincr. State Secretary Reitz, when the correspondent asked him for permission to accompany the Boer commandos as a reporter of their doings, told him that he had better take a nne ana kill tour mat would do us more good than all your newspaper articles.

AC JLiorenzo jnarquas be found the English administering everything as if they were in their own territory. Formerly, in order to cross the Portuguese frontier, one had to tet a nassnort. which cost a sovereign. Now passports are delivered fres by a British officer. The Boers at Lorenzo Marques, being absolutely without information of any kind, circulated the most astounding reports, though they were not entirely without a vestige of truth.

One of those most generally believed was that General Buller had been taken prisoner, and hod only been liberated on giving his word that he would at once return to England with his army. Now, the fact is, say the correspondent, that though General Boiler was not actually captured ha was within an ace of being so. On tha 2nd of October his camp at Kriigersporfc, owing as usual to want of care on the part of the commander and the officers under him. was suddenly attacked as the men were cooking their suppers, and they had to withdraw almost in a name, with very considerable loss. The general has, however, made himself very popular by his efforts to keen his troops well 'supplied with provisions.

The correspondent adds that Lord Roberts greatly impressed him by bis dignified appearance; he once saw him in church, but his attitude was rather that of prayer for luture victories than ox thanKsgivinK tor post ones. Tn interesting developments at Hankow mentioned by Mr. Whigham in the columns of a contemporary show that the Ger mans are eners'eticallv rjuabint? on at that port. Hankow is as near aa possible the geographical centre 01 Ubina, being accessible Irom the sea by that splendid waterway the Yang-tze river. It is also the rail head for the trunk lines which are to converge thither from the north and south, as well as being the great distributing oentre for the whole of the waterways in the heart of the (Jelestial and thus certainly merits the title ol the Uhicago 01 (Jhma bestowed on it by iiord Uharlea rieresford.

VY ith their usual xoretbought the Germans hare recently acquired an extension of the foreign concession along the river bank, which they have protected with a magnificent river wall. This is necessary step, owing to disastrous inundations which often result from the great rising of the Yang-tze in summer, and to which tha British "bund" is exposed. Our! countrymen boost that their concession is just at tho mouth or the Alan itiver, which oitoras a nne. navigable route for hundreds of miles to the north-west; but, on the other hand, the Germans bave an advantage in the fact that their conces. sion is close to the terminus of the Lu-Han Rail way, which will ran northward to Peking.

The trade of the Yang-tze is reported, on the some authority, to have quadrupled itself in 1899, and the two firms, who own the steamship lines plring along the great stream, declare that had it been possible to foresee this great expansion they would hare built fresh boats. In 1900, however, trade fell off terribly, but now the Germans are pressing to come into the "pool owned by the ritisn lines. Jos. Whigham says thousands of coolies are at work on the Russian, French, and Lrerman bunds, and, speaking generally, there is a vast amount of work going on, with which England has no con. nection.

All this ought to prove clearly enough that Hankow, as the centre of the Yang-tze sphere, will be very far from being an exclusively! British mart, and that our countrymen ought to consider themselves fortunate if they are able to maintain the position they have hitherto occupied there. THE DURHAM MINERS' ASSOCIATION. Mr. John Wilson. K.P..

Beorttarv of the Dor-ham Miners' Association, in his circular for January, says ha ia (fled that the Exeonbive Committa3 and Federation Board have passed resolutions expressing their sorrow as an association in connection with their eeneral feeling and sympathy with tha Kojal Family in their bereavement on we ueam ox ttneeu victoria, xne aeuea; of the Executive and the Uoara will do universally endorsed by all members of their body.
