A COMMON BOND.
The American press bestows far less notice on the reception accorded to the United States fleet in New Zealand than British newspapers do. The New York Herald and the Philadelphia Inquirer refer to the common bond that Australia especially, and New Zealand have with the United States, owing to their exposure to the Yellow Peril, Both papers say that the white people in the Antipodes are obviously intensely pleased at the tangible evidence that the United States intend to become powerful enough in the Pacific to be, if not their champion, at any rate a leader in any impending race struggle. It is remarked by the Herald that American strength in Eastern waters should do much to ensure peace. After alluding to the profound impression the battleships made in Auckland, the Herald says : —That must suggest the moral effect that may be produced upon ether more impressionable people by the.visible embodiment of the resources and power of the United States, and such effect can only make for peace.”
