Lord Oranvillo's epeech on Friday laat ln tho Iloitse of Lordi, and tho letter whieh Lord Edmond Kitzmaurice read in the Houso of Commons, con tain all that ho secms disposed to pnl.lish bf ~^y ot answer to Prince Hismarck. People who do not liko Lord (Jranvillo or Englind, talk ahont his ? apology ? to the flerman C'hancellor. The Frcnrh prcss is'in hysterics. The non-ofllical paners at Herlin chooso t? descrihe tho si>ecch as not only au apology but a buuihle apology. Put as Princo Hisniarck's orifans are silont, the opinions of tho othors signily littlc. There is 888303 to 3303*3 that ('..nnt H.-rliert Hismarck left London with tho boiiof thut all eaaaaa of aarlaoa Briaaa-aBdaadlaa lietwcen Englnuil and Oermauy were removed. It is not his fault if news of tho snpposed insult to tho Hritish flag at 488338 Rny arrire-d next iiiorniuif.' The point whieh Kuropean tliploniatlsts wore most aonoaa about was tho Hcrlin dispatch of May 5, in whieh Princo Hismarck ottr-rcd le further KnRland's;intereata in E?pt if En?lnnd would show herself friendly toward tho colonial policv f,of Gerinany.

Tho case in IKiint ahows how much thoy uro worth. Couiit lleii.eii Hismarck has the ollieial ttaitnim, u? (lonht, whieh every Eiiropean diplomati.t must have; for it is ouly in America that diplouiatists KpritiK full Kiowii into public life, and reytiiro no eilucatiou for their deltcate and diflieult dutu-s. He haa moreover, the advanluite ol bciug his father's son. It is doubtful whetber both these advantages would have pointed him oat aa the proper peraon to accompllsh the ta.sk in whleh, as the Oerman Chancellor bluntly puts it, Count Munster, the Gnrman Ambaassdor, had failed. So, if Count Herbert was sent here at thls moinent, lt was becanso he had lived here long enough to know howtodeal with tho English; because he knows Lord Granville personally, and knew 8333}bod* who was likcly to have intluence with Lord Gran Tille. It is not qulto certaln that ho was sent. There Is a plausible theory that the Initiativo waa not taken iu Herlin, hut in London; that tho sug gestlon came from Lansilowno Houae, and not from tho Wilhcmatraaee. If Lord Rosebery really lnvitcd Couut Herbert, the inyltation was a cbarae teristlc pieee of taet aud readiness to soe the point of the situation. In any caso, tho Prussian came to Knglund as the guest of tho personal friend of the Primo Minister. It was not likcly he would go away leaving niatters worae than he found thotn. nor has he done so. Hc bas left them so miieh better that tho rolations of Gcnuauy and England are to-day of the most cord.al kind, and Couut Herbert Hismarck is a considerably greater man than ho was at the beginuing of last week. 0.

The crowning event, socially and faahionably spoaking, of the MalU Carnival ia tbe fancy dress ball annually given at the Palace. There are about 160,000 inhabitanta of the Malteae Islands, includ In _r tbe English army and navy contingent, and l,:i_7 of that 100,000 had been mvited to the ball ontheevoning of Momlay, the l.th inatant; aad 955 wore present, fully DOO being iu fauoy dress. So bnlliaut aud .uccesaful a ball had n.-v.-i- been gireu before here, and I ean easily believo that a certain weli-kuown foahionable aud noled diplomat spoko the tnith when he said, in a gronp of guesW who atood looking at the scene, that so superb a^ ball had aeldom been surpassed by _ny of the Courta of Europe. You will remember, if you pleaao, tliat the ball was held iu tho palace once built for and occupied by tho Grand Masters of tho Knights of 8t. John of Jernsalem when they gloriflcd tho littlo island of Malta by their chivalno pre8once.

It ia only two utories in height, btit eaeh utory is very lofty. Two great courtyards are in tho ccntre of tho pile, adorued with trees that Royalty planted, and fringed with polishod guua ever ready for iuatant serTice. A aontincl guards the arched entrance to tho courta, and haa done ao for eighty-five atraight yeara. The lower story of the palaco is doroted to Oovernini'itt otlicos, tho u).per etory tothe.Gov ernor'a residence, and it includoa tlie famous nnnory, the tapoatry chamber whero the preseut (l.iy counclls aro held, the ball rootn, the batniuet bflll and tho long, wide. marble-paved corridor* a'.ong whoso walla aro huug quaint and aoinetiiuea liue paintings of battles fought ou land and sea hy the Order, aud whero row. of knmhtly arttior atand in atlfl and atately elllgy on both sides of tho aplendid gallcrios. Tho liall of St. Mithael and St. George is the ball rootn. The Kiug'a Own Liglit lnfautry band played dauce music from a higli-up balcony at flflfl flfli flf the rooin, while tho Govcrnor aud his giacious lady sat _on a raiscd dais at tho opposite end.
