The Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state for the colonies, made an Important speech on puhlic affairs at Birmingham on tbe 16th Inst. Mr. Chamberlain, afler depreciating the constant assertions in certain quarters tbat. Lord Salisbury was "discredited" and lhe government "weak anil vacillating," suid: "If foreign countries lielieve and act upon lliese statements they will lind themselves much mistaken and thut courteous diplomacy and graceful concessions nre tint, In compatible with a firm maintenance of llie country's honor lllld inleresls." Then, declaring Ihal he intended to made a "plain statement of fuels, unfettered by ilu* mysteries and reticence of diplomacy nf Imlf a century agn, which without revealing secret negotiations, should be iiinlersliind of the people." Mr. Ohnmlierlalii -n'nl he would accept the judgment of ibe people us willingly as I lin lot'llie wisest diplomiil in llie world. l'efci'i'lng In the policy nfslrlrl isnlu- tinn thut England has pursued since the Crimean war, he remarked that lliis hud lieen "perfectly justifiable" nnd iidileil: "The time has arrived when Great Britain may be coiifiouted by a enttiliiiiiitinn nf puwers and our first duty therefore Is to draw ull purls of the empire inin close unity und our next to maintain lbe bonds of permanent unlly wiili nur kinsmen across the Atlantic," (Lnmi cheeis), "There is a powerful nnd generous nation,'' said Jlr. Cliumhcrltiin, "using ■•nt- language, bred nf our nice and having inleresls identical with ours, I would go so far as lossy ihul, terrible ns wnr inay be, even war Ilself would lie cheaply pni'clniseil if in a greal and noble cause Ihe stars nnd stripes and lbe union jack should wave together over an Anlo-Saxon alliance, (Prolonged cheers). ' It. is one of the mosl satisfactory results of Lord Salisbury's policy ihal at flu* present time lliese two great tuitions understand each nlhei belter than lhey have ev r dune since over a eenl ury ago, when Ibey were separated by a blunder of the llriiish goveriiinenl." Mr. Chamberlain proceeded to draw n gloomy picture of Ihe situation iu China, "where we have to count with Russia, as In Afglianlslan, except that we dn not possess an army or a defensive frontier in China anil cannot therefore injure Russia wilhoul un ally. The fate of the whole Chinese empire is Involved nnd otu Interest are no enormous thul no more vital question was ever presented for decision tn the Biiiish nation and a llriiish governuienl, Unless the fate ol China is tu he decided withottl England's vnlcnwo musl not reject tho Idea nf an alliance with those puwers whose inleresls ure imilar lo ours." All ibe leading London journals took occasion lo comment upon tin* speech, uml llie Standard, applauding Jlr. Chamberlain's aland, suys: "Therels not tin" uuiilest riiisonlnstip. pnse tbut. Ilis ciinviciinnsarejnnl shared by every member of ilu* cabinet, They Itnd l n anticipated liy innsl men who have tried to look below ilie surface of current diplomacy, and lhe special quality which lie hat imparled to the declaraiimi was lbe emphasis uf concentrated and unadulterated truth. We nre liable nl uny niomenl to be confronted bv a combination of all the European powers, Tin* contingency should uul be dismissed us Impossible merely because ll would lie starllngly unpleasant, "Already we have endeavored witli nn small success to draw all parts of our vast empire togelher in the firm Intention lo co*operate for the common defense ; nor can it be said Ilinl there Is anything lacking in our feeling of regard and friendship for lbe great kindred community on the other side nf tin* Atlantic," THE ADVANCE Midway, B.C., May28,1SH8.

Jusl before fhe house roseon the lillh a telegram frnni Herbert Gladstone reached Lord Staiib-y announcing thai his I'm hei- wns sinking. Already before bis deal It lbe hush of grief seemed in fall over lhe scene of his triumphs, mul from the present men turned in tlie past, recalling sayings mill doings. A greul lion lay dying, his nld colleagues', his one-time enemies and followers watching his lasl long liglil wilh bis last nml implucable foe, as they watched in pasl days Ilis fight against lues whom he had overcome, He was yielding slowly Inch hy inch, li wus generally believed at .St. Slnveiis's that his dying was lull the si'ipn'l In Ihul greal scene wil- nessed four years tigo, when liis lasl speech spoken, he quitted the house without, one wunl of spoken advice, Anticipating llie inevitable, ilia members of the governuienl discussed the appropriate precetlnre tu I h- Served and resolved llnil no efforl mi their part,should he wauling lo mink a suitable sense of llieir loss.

THE ADVANCE LOCAL AND DISTRICT. Judgp Spinks came in from Grand Forts yesterday, and passed nn north to-day. Mr. Haokey of Vancouver, is a visitor In this distriet, having come in from Peutictnu oo Wednesday last. A silling uf the Licensing Court for the districl uill he held at lhe Cnurl House Midway, on Wednesday, Iiiih of ,1 une nexl. Mrs, U.S. Cayley nf Grand Km ks, passed through town Lo-day on her way to Vernon lo tliere pay a visit tu parents and friends, C. A. It. Lamlily, 8. M„ and Gnld Commissioner for the disirici. came over from Osoyoos on Wednesday lust, uud after attending to some official business returned home un Friiluy. The Revd. Mr. Wilson, of Vernon, and lhe Kevd. Mr. Ganiiignf liiissluiul, passed through town nu Thursday lust, These gentlemen jue paying lie* district a visit in connection with mission woi k. Mrs, 0. A. It. Lamhly, of Osoyoos, nud Miss Allison ul' Princeton, are visitors in town. Mrs. Lamhly is inlying Mrs. Dowiling Iiei mother a visit, and expects to he in town fur ahout two weeks. 11 is gleaned that the recently vacated pnsiiinu of Superintendent of Ronds, iniiile sn hy the resignation of Mr. L. V. Ciippngc, has iieeu filled hy the appointment nf Mr, J, A. Schubert, fiii'inerlv of Vernon nod mure recenlly of Fairview. Mr. I'l, P. Davidson of Kamloops, paid Midway a visit during llle week. As wilh all (iihers thoroughly acquainted wilh ihis district Mr, David- sun feels Ihnt the government acted shamefully when they tacked Boundary Creek nn the Rosslaud ruling iu the creation of new electoral districts. Negotiations are proceeding between a committee nf Greenwood men appointed for tlie purpose and the Nelson and Vernon Telephone company respecting tlie extension lu Greenwood of tlie telephone line which tin* coin- puny has announced its intention to build lo Grand Furks. A party of C, P, H, officials consisting of Messrs, J.H.Sussmiiu, mining expert, D. W. Moore ore buyer for tin* Trail smelter, and 11. ii. McDonald, freight ngenl nl, Nelson, visited .Miiiway last .Sal.ui'iluy. Messrs. Sussinan antl Moore went up tiilhclirucc before returning to Greenwood. After spending a pleasant holiday heie, Mr. S.

Uel'nre leaving Mr. Uickiirds expressed himself us holding In the view lhat, ihis dlslrlcl liasti greal fiiltice before it unit also t.lnit lhe peuple nf the ciiusl have su far failed tu appreciate lhe advantages that wuuld accrue frum n, closer business reliiliun.slii|i lietwcen lllc two sec- linns. Mr. Thos. G. Earl, of Lytton, who is a member of tlie Board of Horticulture nod is Inspector I'nr this district, came in this morning, nn liis periodical tour of inspection. He visited Golden, Northport, nnd Grand Forks on his way iu. This afternoon in company with Mr. W. H. Norris he paid a visit to tlie hitter's newly-planted orchard. He was much pleased with what be saw and expressed the opinion tliat witli irrigation fruit growing should pay well here. Another appropriation of $1,200 is made hy the government toward the repair of the Mission creek dam near Okanagan Mission. Several such appropriations have been made, nnd the pity is that the governuienl would nm donate a sufficient ainounl tn Insures permanent wnrk being constructed, in stead nf dribbling oul sums of money annually, of an amount just sufficient to curry Ihe work to a point ut which a few dollars more spent wuuld ensure a good and lasting job heing done in connection wilh tbe dam above referred to. Those fairly COIIipeleUt In judge claim that lo prevent tlie overflow of the creek, and tlie consequent destruction of property, attention should he paid nnd money spent in clearing out the bed nf the creek. 4 , 4 MIXING NOTES.
