Show m A dcat Country. M "A steamship agent at New York say m tlio first-cabin passengers Bailing from B United States and Canadian ports (or B Europo have this year been about 8000 M less, up to dale, than for tho same period H ln8tyenr," says the Tribune. "This m will menu tli.it the hotels nnd shops of B Great Britain and the continent will H receive about $8,000,000 less Aiucricnn B money than usual this year. A good B many of thy 8000 are making journej'8 B through the Western States and urtuul- B ly learning something about their own B country. It is a gruit pity that more H caution come and begin to get an esti- B mate of their country by looking west B rather than by perpetually straining B their eyes off across tho eastern sea. H When tho impression of the truth begins H to dawn upon our Eastern friend?, and B thoy begin to comprehend that, com- B pared with their home country, all B others aro of lower grade, it will be B better for them and for ua all." |
