ceaseless rebuff which it has met at the hands of the Porte to the present time, when we receive such ignorant or impudent news as that aid can now reach such and such a station, seeing that the Red Cross has reached it, have been most misleading.All this time the work has been going on through a far better agency.An international relief committee was formed at Constantinople similar to and largely consisting cf ths same elements as that which so efficiently and with such lasting good effects administered the Bulgarian relief fund twenty years ago.The same man is the treasurer of the present work wno was treasurer then, Mr.W.W.Peet, a banker of Constantinople.The same headquarters are again in full activity, namely, the Constantinople Bible house.This committee has necessarily to work through the missionaries on the field.How it secures communication is not always a matter to be reported on.That it does secure communication is evident frcm the fact that letters from mis- sicnaries all show that they are occupied with exhaustive relief work, their premises being crowded continually with almost naked refugees coming from distant villages.TEE eve me TR ea SE a cand This agency, besides being in every way the most competent, has the advantage of costing nothing for agents, the missionaries being all supported by their regular salaries.Moreover, it involves no roving commissions of almoners, who must be entirely strange to the people and liable to be drawn upon chiefly by the least thrifty and deserving.Commissions sont for the purpose can only administer monetary relief, which will leave the recipient poorer than be- fore\u2014poorer in self-reliance at least.The missionary can place help where it can help the receiver to help himself.Women, for instance, are organized for work.Wool is purchased in the bulk, spun and knit, for which they receive eight cents a day, enough to keep their families from starving, while the garments made serve the immediate needs of others.The native pastors do their share also without cost to their fund.The reader can well understand that, absorbed as they are, those on the field have little time for consecutive reports.One of the missionaries of the American Board of Missions, detained at Constantinople by the condition of the city, is managing the work there and many of the Protestants of the city are giving a great deal of time freely for the purpose.Mr.Peet writes as far back as Jan.15 : \u201cOur relief work is growing on our \u2018hands with astonishing rapidity, and \u2018it has now reached a magnitude \u2018which is really colossal.Our mis- \u2018sionaries in Trebizond, Erzeroum, \u2018 Bitlis, Van, Mardin, Harpoot, Sivas, \u201c Cesarea, Aintab, Marash, Hadjin, are \u201call devoting themselves to relief \u2018work, and have received the appro- \u2018priations from our own and the \u2018 Board funds.\u2019 A very interesting fact has appeared in some papers, and therefore there is nothing dangerous t9 the parties in repeating it here, that the authorities of the Armenian Church at Constantinople, being entrusted with considerable relief funds, applied to the international committee to forward and administer them, the channels of their own church or- genization being too much under the control of the rapacious Turks to be safe.pe A BIG CONTRACT.The United States Congress seems to regard itself as a sort of interna- ticnal court, which is called upon to adjudicate upon and decide the affairs of all nations, saving only thode of the United States of America.There are the currency questions, the financial problems, the silver ques- ticn, the tariff question, and a dozen other United States matters urgently demanding settlement, but Congress cannot even agree to disagree upon them ; can do nothing but squabble and talk over them, while the bad situation created by them becomes daily worse.But in regard to the Armenian difficulty, the Venezuelan dispute, the Cuban question, Congress is perfectly unanimous in condemning Spain and England and the great powers of Europe generally, and telling them what they ought and what they ought not to do.The United States Congress cannot for the life of it tell what it should do with its own domestic affairs which lie under its nose, but it is cocksure it knows all about the affairs of other nations with which it has little or no acquaintance at all.In proposing to recognize the belligerency of the Cuban insurgents the Senate is amply vindicating Great Britain\u2019s recognition of Scuthern belligerency during the civil war, which the people of the Northern United States resent warmly to this day.The Senate in doing so is not acting as disinterestedly from 4 national point of view as England did in the case of the South.A large section of the United States public press openly express the desire of the United States for the annexation of Cuba, one comic journal months ago having published a map of the United States distorted into a portrait of Uncle Sam's head, with open mouth, into which Cuba as a fish was swimming.The Senate\u2019s course is open to the suspicion of being prompted to encourage the rebellion of the Cubans in the hope that if successful Cuba might become a territory of the union.We must say that \u2018we sympathize with the rebel Cubans, and wculd be glad to see them free themselves from the intolerable oppression of Spain, and certainly they would find the best government for themselves A a ee ema if they brought their island into the United States, for it is problematical, to say the least, whether they would ever establish stable and quiet government if left to themselves.This ircomparably fertile island would under the United States government become prosperous itself and add perceptibly to the prosperity and well- being of the world.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 MR.CRAWFORD'S ANTI-REME- DIAL MOTION.Mr.Crawford\u2019s \u2018anti-coercion\u2019 resolution, as introduced into the Ontario :Legislature.takes weak ground.Passing over the merits of the Manitoba school law and of that which the national government would substitute for it, it devotes itself 1o asserting that Manitoba should be allowed to do what she likes in the matter of education without fnterference from Cttawa, so long as Manitoba acts within her \u2018judicial rights.\" This is at variance with the constitution as written in the British North America Act, and represents the spirit of provincialism as opposed to nationalism in our evolution.When the British provinces of North America were brought together the probability is that they would have formed them- sclves into a national unit, or at least a very much more sclid body than they are had it not been for diversity of race and creed.Sir John Mac- dcnald, the largest figure in the consummation of the union, represenied the nationalist view.The ineuper- able obstacle to complete nationality was Lower Canada, and the objection of this province to have her educa.ion- al affairs ruled from Ottawa was in the foreground as a reason why a federal cystem should be preferred to a national one.The Protestants of Quebec, on the other hand, were naturally opposed to the federal or provincial principle, as it put them in a hopeless and decreasing minority in dealing with all those interests which are to every true man the most sacred.These, led in the constitutional council hy Sir Alexander Galt, refused to assent to confederation till they obtained certain guarantees which satisfied Sir Alexander Galt at the time, but which have for the most part proved illusory, as later he confessed.One of these guarantees\u2014 the most important and the most solid\u2014was the right vested in the national parliament to vindicate and protect religious minorities when their educational rights were trampled upon.The religious minorities ccntemplated in this provision were the Protestants of Lower Canada and the Roman Catholics of the other provinces, but particularly the former, at whose instance the provision was made, and who, living in the midst of a Roman Catholic population, could not contemplate with equanimity the possibility of being taxed for the education of their children in Roman Catholic schools.The provision was that of an appeal on the part of the minority to the right sense of parliament.It must be clear to all that this is a right which the minority of this province cannot surrender.Indeed, any onc outside of the province who would propose to rob them of it would place his sense of justice in a very curious light.Mr.Crawford's motion practically condemns all interference by parliament, If a province were to act ultra vires there would be no need of interference.Had the Province of Manitoba gone beyond its rights the Privy Council, when appealed to, would have said so, and that would have ended it.The matter would not have reached parliament at all.The interference of parliament comntem- plated in our comstitution is to meet the case when, though not transgressing its legal rights, a province transgresses the moral rights of a minority.If Mr.Crawford had taken the ground that the Manitoba law does not transgress any moral right, and that under thase circumstances the netional parliament would do wrong ty interfere, he would have been on constitutional ground.If he had held that, even though the Manitoba Government were admitted to have trans- gresced some moral right, the remedial measure proposed by the Dominion Government was a premature or even brutal method of interference, which being, if resisted, practically unenforcable, and, being technically unrepealable, is tremendously perilous, he would have had an indiscut- erences, able case.But he goss - says that so long as a ;- not go beyond iis le.- should be allowed with - interference to oppress as much as it likes 7 not be what Mr.Crawfo= it is what

hostility berause they civil ani Holland2rs even when necessity comp&led them to labor together for a common end.The most common charge against the \u2018 Boers on the pant of missionaries has been that they maltreated their slaves, and were opposed to efforts for the abo- litlon of slavery.Apart from the fact that cruelty, such as wife-beating and ili- treatment of ciildren and factory operatives, engagws the attention of every in- dusirially-civilized community to-day, and maybe be taken as evidence of the pro- ability that the Boers were not less cruel than other slave-Rolding peoples, there is their cwn denial of the generality cf the charge; the fact that they saved the Bechuanas from extinction by the blood-thiraty warriors of Mosilikatse, and that they lib2rated from the slavery in which they were held by Xaffir tribes many bands of Hottentots, Fingoes and others.Colonial party politics have nowhere bred more active partisanship than in the Cape of Good Hope, and there have always he2n a corresponding partinsan- ships in Great Britain.Kaffir wars and the causes of them have been time and again debated over in the British House of Commons and in the reviews and journals.FErm:nent men have ascribed them to blundering British officialism, and other eminent men to the aggression of colonists.The Boers have for the most part held the former view.Believing that they could follow the pastoral life to which they had become attached, and protect their herds and homes, without the aid of British military or police forces, they left British rule behind them rand set up in the heart of South Africa | the two great provinces of the Orange River and Transvaal Revublics.Wuwth a capacity for self-government under simple institutions, which belies the ignorant diatribes of British land grabbers, they have maintained with dignity their own peculiar institutions.The discovery of wonderful minoral riches in their territory has brought in a sudden and im- menss immigration which would now seize upon their diamond fields and gold mines, under the plea that the immigrants have made these possessions valuable and that they have the right to control the land policy and make the laws of the Republic.The specious statement that they pay the bulk of the taxes is put forward to justify a demand for franchise and reprezentation.The prosperity of the country is doubtless mainly due to the wise government of the Boers, and an enormously rapid accumulation of wealth favored by simple laws and wise insuitutions., Wealth has mot been created by the Transvaal immigrant.Rather.he [found in the Transvaal wealth made for him.In every civilized country a I'mitation of the franchise and certain disabilities attending alienage are submitted to without a

administration of law which has helped to swell beyond the \u2018dreams of avarice\u2019 the immense inveat- That the trust has not bevn vainly confident is in a general measure proved by the splendid reception given to Dr.Jameson and his band of invaders by the subjects of Uncle Paul Kruger.The Boers have shown themselves able to protect their government: as well as they have hitherto pro- tectoed property.The avant-courier of the hanpily ill-fated attempt to wrest from the Boors the right to administer the affairs of their own country according to the usages of civilized states, was an article in the \u2018Fortnightly Review\u2019 for August, 1895, by Major F.Ricarde- Seaver: \u2018Boer, Africander and Britoa) part I.The \u2018\u201cMajcr\u2019 is very much in evidence throughout, teliing us that \u2018if the Boer will not meet them (the Uitlanders or foreigners) half-way in this reasonable demand\u2019 for \u2018a vcice in the government of the courtrv' \u2018and forces them to fight him, them at the proper time they will accent his challenge, and woe betide him, and still more wee beride his Hollander allies.\u201d To hasten this woe the Major threatens to invite the aid of \u201cthat vast black laber element in the mines\u2014some sixty thousand stalwart Kafiirs\u2014who hate their former oppressors, the Boers, and have not forgotten how to fight.This resninder of \u2018oppression of the Kaffirs' may be convenient stufling for foreign readers ¢f the \u2018Fortnightly,\u2019 but it has no we.ght \u2018n South Africa, where the forrors cof bloody warfare against the Kaffirs down to (he robbery cf pcor Lo- bongula's embassv of peace by British soldiers, can be saddled on the proper nimal, notwithsianding that of such it is said :hat \u2018fighting back to back against overwihelming odds, they died, intoning as their death dirge the strains of our Na- tiomn] An:them.\u2019 \u2018Oom Paul is finally admonished to beware of the Maxim gun\u2019 and to take \u2018warning from the fate ol L-bengula.\u2019 The article closes thus: \u2014In May last when questioned by a prominent Cape politician as to how long I though: Paul Kruger's power would last, I renlied.\u2018that depends upon you gentlemen of the Cape Colcny, and no man is beuster qualified to answer it than your- sel?\u2019 In fact this article fully sustains the charge that a \u2018prominent Cape politician\u2019 (was he not Mr.Cecil Rhiodes?) has been an accomplice of Dr.Jameson.But the marvel is that a paper of so incendiary a character did not bring its author and publishers under that merited punishment provided by law against inflammatory publications designed to promote sedition and insurrection against friendly siates.If that law is a dead letter, the article at least no doubt served the beneficial purpose of warning the wise and fearless Kruger of impending danger, against which he was found fully prepared.Solf-preservation is the first law of nations, and Kruger was not limited to an appeal! to Britain for protection.He had no reason to suppose that protec tion would come from that quarter wheu in a widely-published English review distinct threats and the grounds cf them were glven to the world.One threat was, \u2018that the Cape Colony which came to his (Kruger\u2019's) assistance and liberally gave him railway communication with the outer world at enormous sacrifices to the public exchequer, will not allow him to destroy ct render nugatory the advantages which those sacrifices have procured her.\u2019 This threat is uttered because the Bosrs have opened rallway communication with Delagoa Bay, and \u2018the prominent Cape politician desires to bulldoze this independ~nt people into abandonment of tho enterprise.Kruger is further told that \u2018he must join the customs union on a fair and equitable basis.\u201d The Major says that the Trans- vall railways \u2018are managed and controlled by the Netherland group from their offices in Amsterdam and are simply a burlesque and a travesty of the most elementary principles that should govern the administration of state railways.The foremost operator is that Hollander of Hollanders, tho State Secretary.\u201d \u201cIn this polished, clever and highly educated official may be discovered under the cloak of superficial literalism and apparent frankness.the delermined opponent of our race.\u201d The proof given is the favor shown by this gentleman to certain German and Dutch capitalists who proposed \u2018to lay down a new cable to Dela- goa Bay and cut out the British company from the Transvaal traffic.\u2019 The animus of this tirade is evident, and the outspoken declaration of war which accompanies \u2018it sufficiently justifies the encouraging telegram sent by the Emperor Wil- Mam to President Kruger.If the Boers cannol maintain tkeir autonomy with- DAILY WITNESS: out moulding their fiscal policy, end constructing the public wcrks required for the

evidently fallen upon evil days by not making their mining grants the source \u2018 of royalties and reserved revenues.For | the enormous ccncessions which have made the fortunes of a horde of mining sharks.land-grabbers, stock-brokers and promoters, they are receiving now nothing but contumely and scorn and have to fight for the right to keep what they have not as yct given over to their ene- mics.As it was once fashionable to repent Sydney Smith's sneers at the Methodists, so it has become the proper thing to sneer at the Boer and his bible.The public pluaderer's game everywhere winds up with abuse of the people whom he has robbed.It is not koo late for Kruger's Government to secularize the gold and other mines remalning unsold and to operats them as state enterprizes.Such an experiment aided by a liberal immigration policy towards Scandinavians and Hollanders wouid soon place the Boers in a position to defy the adventurers who seek to exploit the hidden treasures of the Scuth African Republic for private ends.When Sir Henry Smith, at the end of the Cape wars, required at Kaffir chief to place his neck under the English General\u2019s foot as a token of submission, the chief yielded, but on rising faced his conqueror with the wise remark, \u2018I always thought you were a\u2019 great man until now.\u201d Even the success of Dr.Jameson and Cecil Rhodes over the Boers would not add anything to human greatness, despite the poet laureate\u2019s jingling rhymes.The Transvaal broil should serve to direct men\u2019s minds to tle investigation of the immoral and unsalutary character of the forces called into operation wheresoever wealth is rapidly acquired.The treasures which have excited the cupidity of the disappornited fil\u2018busters of Cape Town and Bulawayo are the property not of mining companies or Uitlander adventurers, but of the Transvaal State.The concessions made so far have been ss many breaches of public trust which it would be unjust, no doubt, to restore by forfeitures, but the lesson from which should arouse the Boers to the necessity for making the remaining mineral wealth of their country the property of the state to be administered for the benefit not of this gencoration only but so far as possible for all time.Such a consummation would p'aco the Republic in the front of civilizel s: es, where the sturdy \u201cndependemnce and i.nesty of its people may be trusted to maintain sucn a position.The Boer is a Puritan\u2014a character generally misrepresented by contemporary opinion in the past, and equally liable to me misunderstood to-day.J.BAWDEN.Kingston, Feb.12, 1896, x MR.MOODY'S CONFERENCE.Mr.Moody writes from Nashville to the \u2018Witness,\u2019 sending the following no- tico cf an April

opening number, the overture from Ambroise Thomas's \u2018Raymond\u2019 was given in a charming style, and well merited the applause it received.Mozart's symphony in E flat was rendered throughout

1892, after which thev night decrease the ne: deb, In tha: vear the dob: was $237.000.000 and now it was $167.000.000 more.The annual expenditure had at the same time been increased.This yocar f the adulteration of h ney.Senator Ferguson thought i the prince lo of the bill a good one.He had sao7- ad ub!s, however, as to tre way in which it was paoposed in the bill to secure the objects sought.The biH re quired the most careful consideration, and he moved \u2018that it be taken into.the consideration of the committee of the whole House on Monday.There was à lengthy debate in committee on the Mill of Senator Wcod re- Bo ser rier: LT ne ; ES Ce it T will do so\u2018 specting certain female offenders in the Province of New Brunswick.The bill gives the police magistrate of the city cof St.John, power to sentence Roman Catholic females convicted of crimes to an extended and substituted semtence of imprisonment in the Good Shepherd's Teformanory, instead of the sentence provided im the Criminal Code of imprisonment in the commen jail.Senater Adams said it was preposterous that power should be given a police magistrate to sentence a young girl of sixteen years, to imprisonment for three years and eleven months in this reformatory, when under the criminal law of the land she could only be incarcerated in a common jail for two months.He would not object to the bill if the substituted sentence was made the same as that provided for in the criminal code, but it was a serious thing to allow a police magistrate the power to increase the punishment laid down by the criminal laws, at his discretion.The Gcod Shepherd reformaitory in St.John was not even Incorporated by the local Legislature, and Parliament was not in possession of any infcrmation as to the work these girls were forced to perform while serving under sentence; nelther did the House know anything of the rules and regulations cf this \u2018institution.Senator Power pointed out that the criminal code gave magistrates power to sentence persons found guilty of a crime to the common jail or to a reformatory when it was so provided by law, and it was under the code that that power to increase the common jail sentence in the case cf a prisoner being sent to a reformatory was vested In the judge.He pointed out the different intent of imprisoning in the common jail, which was polshment frr erime, and confinement in a reformatory, which was correction with an attempt to reform, to show the rearon for the longer senkence in the one case than in the other.Senator Macdomald, Victoria, thought the bill an outrageous one, which over- lecked the criminal law of the land.Senator Boulton thought it possible that the act might be abused, and that the Good Shepherds might be induced to look for long sentences in order to make money out of the work of those confined in their institution.After considerable debate the bill was assed through committee, and stands for a third reading on Monday.THE M'CONNELL CHARGES.Halifax, Feb.29.\u2014Yeosterdgy informations were laid by Mr.Adam Burns against Robert MeConnell, as editor, and John Dunn.as publisher, of the \u2018Chronicle, charging them with criminal libel in connection with Mr.McConnell's open letter of Feb.26, to Dr.Weldon, M.P.and Mr.C.H.Qahan.Summonses wero thereupon issued, roturnable on Monday, when the accused w:il come up for preliminary exam'nation.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE CALEDONIAN CONCERTA GREAT SUCCESS AND A CREDIT TO THE CHOIR.\u2014\u2014 r THE WINDSOR HALL CROWDED TO THE DOORS.Nearly everybody of Scottish descend in Montreal goes to hear the Caledonian Society's Choir when it gives ome of those concerts fur the excellence of which it is so justly celebrated.Last night's concert was the sixth annual one, and in the comparatively shcrt time since they were instituted these entertainments have come to be losked upon by Scotch people as a great yearly feast of national music and sentiment, carrying them back through memory's mists to other days and other scenes, back to the springtime of life, so briefly and happily passed amongst the heather and the \u2018 banks and braes\u2019 of bonnie Scots land.The Windsor Hall was taxed to its fullest capacity last night.The audience was very enthusiastic and gave vent to its pleasure with a gratifying energy.It was freely admitted that the choir has greatly improved since last year This is due, no doubt, to vigorous effcrt, not only on the part of the members themselves but to the oonductor, Mr.Wallace, and the directors.Necessary adjustment \u2018has\u2019 been made and parts strengthened until a thoroughly balanced organization has been evolved, one that is indeed artistic and particular in every detail.Too much praise cannot be given the choir for its rendition of the opening number, the part song, \u2018Hail to the Chief;\u2019 it was performed with a pre- efstfon and an unction which immensely Pleased the large audience, putting them in a humor to receive anything following with rapture.Throughout, the choir maintained its high standard, excelling itself in the part song, \u2018 March of the Cameron Men.\u2019 The part songs, \u2018 Thou Are Gane Awa',\u2019 and \u2018 Farewell to the Highlands,\u201d were also given with exquisite faultlessness.The conductor was faithfully obeyed all through, and in this respect it may be remarked that Mr.Wallace proved hls ability last night to wie:d the baton with a high degree of skill.The specially arranged quartette, \u2018Waes Me for Prince Charlie,\u201d was very prettily done.Miss Mabel Barker and My.R.M.Muller got the majcr part of the admiration, although Miss Minnie Campbell and Mr.Leonard Dyer were very gocd.Miss Barker has a sweet, clear voïce, and wses lt with great ense, her \u2018 Bonnie Bessie, the Maid o\u2019 Dundee,\u2019 fairly took the audience by storm, and they urgently dernanded an encore.Mr.R.M.Muller was also very good as a solcist.Solos were also given by Miss Minnie Campbell and Mr.L.Dyer.The arrangement of Scctch selections by Mr.Cathcart Wallace, was played by the String Quintette in an irresiatibly appealing manner.Mr.James Fax, the celebrated Toronto bumorist, whose face has been welcome and familiar at the Caledonian concerts for years past, again appeared and was a source of much merriment.Some parts of his performance could just as well be eliminated, however.Mr.Cath- cart Wallace's viciin sclo was very much appreciated, being played tastefully.What probably excited as much attention and admiration as anything else were the clever and graceful exhibitions of Highland dancing by Masters Murdoch and James Matheson.After the programme was concluded, the audience sang \u2018 Auld Lang Syne,\u201d which was immediately followed by \u2018God Save the Queen,\u2019 and everyone left with faces beaming with satisfaction ADVERTISEMENTS.LB \u201cYOUR GROCER\u201d - Has Our Authority to Return You Your Money in Full, if

\u2018Jingo\u2019 far and near on both sides of the line that separates Canada from the United States, but little allusion to the power that decides national strifes.When God lets the potsherds\u2019 strive he takes care that the upshot will never miss his own purpose.To-day the British control a third part of the world's population, and own about a sixth of iis surface; and who can say justly that it would be better otherwise.That India, for example, would be better off under the Russians, or even as self-governing | states?That Egypt would be better under the French?That the Transvaal would be better under a German protectorate?Or that Ireland would be better off under the penniless, expectant crowd that now represent her in Parliament?etc., ete, \u2018All things stand as God commands,\u2019 and Great Britain is one of God's mercies to the world; and until thea divine purpose with her is completed she will never be less but will be vastly greater than she is.If the

could not stop Britain\u2019s growth but rather gave it impulse, would resolve to co-operate with the inevitable will of Providence and share her glory, be better for them and for the world at large.As for taking Canada, when the attempt is made it will fail as it did in 1775 and in 1812 and as much for the benefit of the United States as for Canada.In 1760 Canada was taken from the French in the interest of the United States; the union of the two countries only fasted about fifteen years; if the French had been allowed to remain the American revolution would never have taken place.It needs the presence of an alien nation to make jingoes and the Yankees would have continued to jingo on the British side.And let the British be baggaged out of Canada as the French were and in a quarter of century or less from the very absence of an object that could be jingoed internal differences would be emphasized till the now United States would fly into half a dozen pieces or more probably into as many pieces as there are states.The Yankees have already reached the pass of the European Continental nations\u2014the necessity of jin- going to call attentlon away from home troubles; as, for example, the German Kaiser yelps to silenee the Sociwlists, so Cleveland does the same to overcome intestine strifes.Our ingenious neighbors boast of having 9,500,000 fighting men and of ability to put 3,000,000 in the field in three months.Good; but it is noted that they are in a special manner amenable to the Irish, and place a chief dependence on them as warriors.A great Jewish banker imposed it as a rule in his business that he would never have anything to do with an unlucky man.If the Irish carry luck to the Yankees it is something they have never done for themselves.The Saxons ir Engiand are as really a conquered people as the Celts in Ireland, but superior wisdom led them to submit to the inevitable and they bave been blessed of God for it.At this late date if the Irish were wise they would follow the example and submit, convinced that Providence is against them and all their works.As for multitudes in war they amount to nothing against the side on which Providence stands.Withouta mental quiver or misgiving, on the great day of account God will raise from their long sleep all the mighty armies of the past, conquering and conquered, with all their Alexanders, Caesars and Napoleons and drive them to their eternal fate as dust is driven before the wind.The history of the Jews is a divine object lesson on the source of victory.FAITH IN

It Is a mistake to think that the act which led to the confederation of the various provinces in 1867 has attained no higher meaning in the life of the Canadian pecpie than that of a constitutional union.It carries with it a meaning of far deeper import\u2014a union of hearts whese offspring is oncuess of patriotic alm and purpose.Of course, it would be idle to say that the Canadian people are a unit upon all questions of vital in\u2018erest to the life and growth of the dominion, The geographical interests of Canada are so varied that there must necessarily be at times some friction and clashing of provincial needs and ambitinrs.This is the case at Washington ; this is the case, too, in so smail a confederation as the cantons of Switzerland.A stranger visiting the gallery of the Canadian House of Commons is struck with the digmity and decorum which mark the proceedings, and surround even the warmest and keenest debates.Parliamentary procedure being rigidly adhered to, there is little room for unseemly encounters, which usually grow out of uncalled-for personalities in the heat of a discussion.Sometimes, how- over, when the House has been sitting for hours, wearied with the prolixities and incoherencies of some member from \u201cway back.\u2019 suddenly.as if through unity of desperation, the usual dignity of the house is relaxed, and grave members from Montreal and Toronto play the schoolboy and outvie one another in \u201cshying\u201d blue books at the heads of slumbering and inoffensive members.Of the 215 members that make up the House cf Commons, in point cf ability and gifts, 20 percent of them ara below mediocrity; 20 percent of them occupy the plane of mediocrity; 40 percent.possess admitied ability, and the remaining 20 percent are men of commanding talent.\u2014 Buluwayo is growing as rapidly as did Johannesburg in its early days.It has two newspapers, the Matabele \u201cTimes\u201d and the Buluwayo \u201cChronicle,\u201d which are reccgnized as

in sawdust.Others have been experimented with by shutting them up in pill-boxes and dry bags for years.1t is believed that as the seeds of plants are distributed Dy winds, so are the eggs of some kinds of snaïls scattered abroad, and thus their species are disseminated.They are very prolific animals.A single pair has been known to produce 786 eggs in a year, but about three hundred eggs per anoum is a fair average.Land snails deposit their cggs in decaying vegetation, the heat of decomposition haiching them.There are more snails in Jamaica than anywhere else in the world.The island fairly swarms with them, and even the trees are covered with them.They are seen forming continuous strings aicne tres branches.Dofted over shrubbery they look very pretty.On the Island there are more than four hundred and filty species, some of which live in caves.A few are very beautiful.During the annual dry season in Jamaica the snails would dry up and die if they stayed awake.So they attach themselves to the tree branches so securely that it is difficult to wrench them off without breaking the shells, and sleep.When the dry spell is over the gnall dissolves the protecting seal\u2014it is not the rain that does it\u2014and resumes active life.There are lots of snails on other West Indian Islands, and geolo- zists account for the fact by the theory that the islands were all originally parts of a continent which has sunk beneath the sea, leaving only a few high elevations unsubmerged.The sinking tcok place very gradually.so that the snails, which originally had occupied an immense area, were driven together and concentrated on those islands which remained above the sea.\u2019 The most costly and brilliant dye known to the ancients\u2014Tyrian purple-\u2014was obtained from a species of sea snail.It | was a liquor contained ïn a vein en the back of the animal.This is said to have been the first color that man was able to fix permanently on wool or linen.It was applied in the simplest possible manner, the fabrics to he stained being soaked in it for many hours.A great many of the mollusks were required to furnish enough of the dye to color a garment, thus making the process a very expensive one, Therefore the dye was reserved for staining the hanging of templzs and the robes of priests and kings.The hue resembled that of coagulated blood.Wool dyed with this stuff sold during the reign of Augustus fcr a hundred and eighty dollars a pound.The law forbade any person save the highest dignitaries to wear wool so colored.\u2018 There is some doubt as to which of several varieties of sea snails produced the \u2018Tvr:an purple.\u201d At least three kinds secrete such a liquor.To obtain this dye would be very costly to-day.All along the coast of New England are found snails which yield this wonderful coloring agent.Yet the frugal houee- wives buy bottled \u2018indellible\u2019 inks, not knowing \u2018hat {he supericr article for this very purpose may be

suffice it to say that our present plan is to spend fron Mcnday to Friday of alternate weeks at the ambala of one or other of the ilve groups of villages near our station.Monday morning is a very busy time for us, as there are many things to be packed.even though our outfit is the simplest possible.By ten o'clock wo aro off, the children being now used to tepoia riding.and quite enjoying the journey.When we reach our destinatica it is not iong \u2018before a bavy of children surround us, attracted by our little ones.They are interested spectators as we untie our loads, and most amusing are the comments we hear on various unfamiliar articles.We find almost no women at the village, ail being off to the fields as wall as the older girls, the boys and the younger men.About three or four o'clock, as thre workers begin to return home, the women come in twos and threcs to greet us, and to see the little cones, and we hear the children's eager voices telling their mothers of the wonderful things they have seen during the day, and of how the white folks have brought their beds and food and mean to stay some time.The women are always much interested in the children, and like to watch them as they play about the compound.They also like to see our house and the various arrangements and furnishings.What- evar courtesy we can snow them in this way is amply repaid in their kindly feeling toward us, and censeqguent readiness to give ear to our gospel message.There is not much chance for me to gather the women En any numbers to speak to them; they are very busy mow and are tirei when they get home.They attend well the evening meeting in the oujango, and if I am able to leave the children asleep, with one of the lads to watch them, I generally speak a few words to the women, after Mr.Read has addressed the whole gathering.They listen with apparent interest to whatever is said.The women enjoy the singing and make very good attempts at learning our hymns of which we fee! gla1; for they must he benefited by becoming fam'liar with gospel truth as conveyed in the Iwvmns.The work among the women on the whole, at the village as at our station, consists chiefly in the little informal talks we can have with one or more at a time, when they come to visit or we see them at their work.As to general mission news, we have cause for mich thankfulness, in spite of many changes.Mr.Stover has gnne to join his family in America ang take a needed and well earñed rest; Mrs.Webster has also gone home on furlough, eo Mrs.Fay and family have removed frum Kamundongo to Batlundu, all other members of the mission are well and the work progressing surely, we trust, if mther slowly.Pray for us.With kind regards and best wishes for the New Year, Yours sincerely, ANNIE READ.tl PROFESSOR ROMANES.It was a surprise to nearly every one who knew him when, shortly before his death, the late Professor Romanes, of Oxford, one of the most distinguished defenders of the evolution theory in England, and perhaps the most thor- sughgoing of all the scientific opponents of Christian faith, returned to that faith which, in his young manhood, he had rejected.We get from an interesting article in * The Congregationalist' a glimpse into Professor Romanes\u2019s inner bistory for the last five years before Ris death ; and one corner at least cf the curtain is lifted.which chows us how he was struggling and how he was led out of the darkness and unrest cf unbelief.He had conceived an admiration for the scientific skill of the Rev.J.T.Gulick, the son of a Sandwich Island missionary, and author of imporiant investigations on the mol- Hawaiian Islands.On cf 1890, Professor Re- lusca of the Christmas Day manes wrote to Mr.Gulick, who was then a missionary of the American Board in Japan, saying that foi a long time he had been meditating about the possibility of asking a question which he feared might seem impertinent, but on this Christmas Day he could nut avoid doing it ; that the question was not asked from curiosity, but for his own benefit.It was : \u2018How is it that you have retained your Christian belief in the midst of your scientific researches ?Looking at your life I! feel that you have done sa conscientiously, and looking at your logic I know that you have not done sy without due consideration.\u2019 He said that his life had years ago becn \u2018shattered\u2019 by what he would call \u2018the overbearing shocks of rationalism,\u2019 and therefore he wished to know how Mr.Gulick viewed the matter.It certainly is Interesting to see the distinguished Oxiord professor seeking this light from the American missionary in Japan.The answer which he received will appear in the January \u2018Bibliotheca Sacra.\u2019 The correspondence Indicates that Professor Remanes\u2019s change of view was not a sudden one, but the result of much thought, and.doubtless, of correspondence and conversations with cthers besides Mr.Gulick.\u2014The \u2018Independent.\u2019 rer RELIGIOUS NEWS.A Scandinavian woman in Whitehall, Wis., has given the savings of twelve years, two hundred dollars, to the Armenian relief fund.What a superb example she has set to those infinitely wealthier !

Yes, but also think of the tiresomeness and monotony of tending the same loom, sewing machine or telephone board, of standing behind the same counter selling the same things to the same customers year after year.All mechanical work is monotonous, but house work is the most wholesome and the most varied routine work in which women can engage and it is just for that reason that it is Letter for them than the continuous strain of industrial and ccmmer- cial life, as well as better fitting them for their natural sphere as wives and mothers.We must then seek another explanation than the onerous nature of the werk for the unpopularity of domestic service and this I will try to supply.The drawbacks to this occuration in the minds of those who would naturally fill it are twofold, practical and sentimental.The practical drawback is not that the work is never done, for any good general servant or special servant can preity weoll dictate Mer hours cf freedom, the majority command a great deal more leisure and society than their mistresses, but is due to the conditions under which the servire is carried on.While the girl who works in the shop or factory works under contract and is free to lead her seclal and domestic life as an indenen- dent member of society, s9 long as her working efficiency is not impaired, the domestic is still in a position of tutelage and moreover lives in intimate contact with a domestic and social life to which she is an alien and while she may seek i mea Qu TE Of CA [a ve Li à house high i\u2019 APR Leu [AY RNEEURE ERE ERE CRE ELE DERE REE BOSTON.BR by i and pride that we supply the homes of Hthe land with Coffee of the finest f quality.The best the earth affords we W give them.There is no variation in ill the quality of our \u201cSeal Brand \u201d fl Coffee, every package is of the same IN stands.Packed in air tight tin cans only .CHASE & SA.NBORN.MONTREAL.ADVERTISEMENTS.GS US SO Seg It Makes a Good Breakfast Ad Above all drinks for the morning ie meal Coffee stands supreme.The odor like an incense.Tt i is our claim grade.On it our reputation rd 0 0) Je PRY) lf CHICAGO.moment.tect ourselves, our husbands, our !

but I was ambi:icus to make my firat school a success, and I have never regretted that I offered ths prize, although it did not acoomplish half what I had hoped.What to give was the next puzzling ques:ion, and fcr what to offer the prize another.After much advice from the agen:, and chaffing from the superintendent, who advised mo to offer it for the best grades in psychology, I decided that the prize shculd Le given for spelling as I had the primary department and speiling was about ali that I cguld get my pupils to do.My supply of trinkets had not been large when I left my Masgachuseits home to coms over the Rockies and teach the redskins.My pupils were of ail ages, from Chaka, a four-year-old papaoss, to Chala, a gray-haired, toothless squaw, who insisted that she could read, and cam2 daily with-an old First Reader, the lessons ci which she knew by heart, and which she recited in a manner psculiarly her own.~My few trinkets had vanished like snow when the warm wind strikes it, for the Indians begged from me everything, from my handkerchief 10 my overcoat.Probabiy they would have stripped me of all my belongings had not tae matron come tO my assistance.\u2018Me dear boy,\u201d she exclaimed, bursting into my room with my pocket-Kknife and shirc-siud, which she had rescued by force trom two young bucks who had just wheedled them from me, \u2018ye mustn't was ve givin\u2019 yer pocket-paces to thim dirty thaves ! See here now, phwat I tuck from White Row and that snakin\u2019 Jake.Falth, whin I first come here they bezged the very clothes from me back! They axed for mo aprons, and wan ould squaw jest begged for the crape from me bunnit 1 was wearin\u2019 thin for me man, poor Felix, that's dead and gone this sivin year! I got mad thn.\u2019 Just then a little, dark-baired maid came up and asked me for a small charm on my watch-chain.\u2018Be gone out of that now!\u2019 the matron exclw.med, fiercely, and the girl ran away.\u2018I dislike to offend them,\u2019 I said; \u2018and to tell the truth, I am a little afraid to refuse those fierce-lcdoking braves when they ask for such trifles.\u2019 \u2018Fierce! Hoot! Fierce, is it?I can lick tin of thim wid this wan broom?\u201d exdlaimed Bridge:, flourishing it as sho d'isappeared.1 laughed; but I have since found that Bridget was Tight, for I have seen cld Indians who had kilied bears and fought with panthers, and who would quietly look down the barrel of a rifle aimed at tem, flee predipitately when she brought a stick or a poker against them.i was still perplexed about what to of- fr as a rrize when I received a visit from Harry Murphy, the youngest soldier a: the fort, and with whom I had become quite intimate.\u2018Well, how about the prize?was his first greeting.My scheme had become common talk by \u201cthis time, for small things become interesting to men shut in from the rest of the worid, as we were.\u2018lI am thinking cf offering this writing d-zk,' said I, hellding up the one on which 1 bad been writing.: \u2018They wouldn't look at that twice.Why d:rn\u2019t you offer a saddle, now?\u2019 \u2018For the same reason that I don\u2019t offer a diamond shirt-stud,\u2019 I answered, a little piqued.> \u2018I'll trade you ome\u2014a saddle, I mean \u2014for that writing-desk.I've wanted it ever since I saw it.I used to have one like it back home, and it makes nme feel good just to look at it\u2019 \u2018Agreed,\u2019 said I, handing him the desk.\u2018Bring it up.\u2019 The pupils were vieibly impressed when I announced that my prize would be a saddle.There was no one, young or old, but wanted one.At first every schoiar was determined to compete for the prize; dan et 1 2 4 ; ; but before a week passed I found that but two, a half-breged boy named Joe and a full-blooded Indian youth called Hank, were really in earnest.About thistime there arrived at the fort a drunken Indian named Josh, bringing with him a pack of mules and ponies, which he had been herding in the meadows ten miles distant, also a tent and his family, consisting of a common-look- ing squaw and his twelve-year-old daughter, Naka.Naka had attended school before, and when she appeared on Monday moraing 1 explained to her about the prize.\u2018Me get him,\u201d she said, gazing at the big.stirruped affair as it hung at one end of the room.\u2018No like ride mule no saddle.\u2019 \u2018You must win it, first, Naka,\u2019 said I.\u2018Me will.Rend hard book.Study hard,\u2019and suiting the action to the words, she sat down on a bench and began studying at once.And so it happened that there were three in the race.My sympathies were all with Naka.Her father would do nothing but lcaf around the fort.begging.stealing, or working for a drink, leaving the care of the pomies to his wife and daughter.Every morning I saw ber riding down the rocky road to the spring, her black hair flying in the breeze, deep:y absorbed in her little government spe.ler, leaving the driving cf the ponies to the old gray mule on whose back she was perched.Each evening I saw her far up cn the miountain- side gathering brushwood or herding ponies, always with the little book In her hand, or attached to her waist by a buckskin thong.Joe had the advantage of the others.\u2018No get saddle! she sald, sadly.Then Hank came to the rescue.\u2018Her Tead my book.Both read one t:me,\u2019 he said.So {t came about that two figures might be seen on Hank's boulder, her green calico dress a strange contrast to the blue army ccat, with Its dingy white stripes and brass buttons, as both bent eagerly over the speller, or gravely pronounced in Indian-Engiish the words to one another.\u2018At last the eventful day arrived on which the final test was to be given.I ' was surprised to find the schoolreem almost full when I came down {rom dinner, land by two o'clock we could find room ' for no more.| The scldiers were there in full od, | Some officer: sat in a group at one edd of the room.The Indians were there, too, from Chaïoka, an old chief, to an old squarw callel \u2018Get Thore\u2018\u2014a name given ber by the soldiers because of her persistence in begging\u2014who calmly seated herself on the floor, and fixed her gaze on a nail-head as though she had no othsr occupation in life.Joe arrived early, and sat undisturbed by the unusual proceedings.He was dressed in a new suit of clothes, brought from Helena fo\" this occasicn.Joe looked as though the saddle was already his, and the spelling-match held merely fer the amusement of the people.His father was there, looking considerably more anxious than Joe.He was fond, in his way, of this half-breed son, and was planning to take him back east when his own time in the army had expired.Naka sat silently between her mother, who never seemed to notice her, and an- other squaw who held a red-skinned Et- { 4 1} n 7 / > 7h es = PRT Tea (AP ; Ad Fe CORAN Hie pi [\u2014 i M7 = as 1 AA NO AL II GE i 4 77 si Pre N ESS re) se > En mat fn Ce re 23 XS CJ gs EIN 5 Es PS Ra a THE WARDROBE OF A SWELL NEW YORK MONKEY.His father was a soldier and he had nothing to do but sit in the shade of the fort and study when not in school.\u2018T'Il get that saddle, sure, he said, when thus I found him one Saturday af- terncon while visiting the fort.\u2018My father's goin\u2019 to buy me a pony when I get it.No girl will get it,\u2019 indicating Naka by a nod in the direction of her father\u2019s camp.\u2018What'd a girl want of a saddie?\u2019 \u2018Naka needs the saddle,\u201d I suggested.\u2018She'll not get ii.\u2019 he said, decisively, and resumed his book.Hank said nothing, but on every mild day after school hours he could be seen seated on a huge boulder by the side of the réad, an cdd little figure with buck- skim trousers and the discarded coat of a lieutenant, surmounted by a large white hat with à blue band, the rim of which nersistently flapped down between his swarthy little face and the bock, He would sit for hours scarcely moving anything but his lips, and occasipmal- ly raising the refractory hat-rim, studying doggedly from his blue-backed little, book, until the sun sank behind the cliffs and the mountain twilight deepened îin- to the mountain night.The three continued tostudy until one morning abcut two weeks later, when Naka hurriedly entered my Toom without the preliminary of knocking.\u2018My bork gone! she gasped, holding up the thong which had confined it to her waist.\u2018Go sleep last night; not thore ths morning! 7 I examined the string, which appeared to have been cut cr broken, and thought she had lost the book in the brush., I gave her another book, and she departed slowly and solemnly studying its long columns of words.Two days later this book had disan- peared! Our supply was exhausted, and so I gave her my own ony.I suspected Jce of having taken Naka's beok, but his undisturbed manmer and his quiet, \u2018I tle stcic across her lap.The girl bad no new clothes to display, and she seem- edgp very insignificant little creature as she sat wistfully eyeing the saddle, her face first having the eager look of a child, and then the indifferent look of an Indian.Hank arrived late.He was greeted by admiring glances from the Indians, but the smothered laugh among the officers grew to a decided \u2018Haw! haw!\u2019 when it reached the epidiers.Hank's appearance astonished us all, though we were used \u201cto strange sights, and I am afraid my smile of welcome was broader than was necessary.Over his buckskin trousers and blue coat he had fastened at regular intervals small pine cones, into which he had stuck feathers of all descriptions, from the soit down of the quill to a pheasant\u2019s tail, which proudly waved frcm between his shoulders.His fingers wera covered with rings of copper, tin and silver, while his right thumb was encircled by a large brass band taken from Captain Hinne\u2019s old umbrella.Around his neck were three ties of red, green and yellow, gathered in fromt by an immense celluloïd harness-ring.hat, which he failed to remove, was decorated with grouse feathers.Hank looked like some gigantic bird as he proudly stalked to a seat, vacated for him by aa admiring Indian lad, who seemed overcome by his grand appearance.\u2018We decided to \u2018spell down,\u2019 and several of the soldiers comeented to fill up the lines and brush up their learning.Captain Hines and Lieutenant Day chose the contending sides, and much amusement was occasioned by the checesing.As I arose to pronounce, I was struck by the appearance of the spellers.How like, yet strangely unlike, our own spcll- ing-bees back east! But how different the dark countenances of the Indians and the tanned features of the solgjers from \\ His | the faces of my friends and schoolmates in Massachusetts ! A feeling of homesickness came over me, and I found myself wishing I had never taken: the civil service examination and left my dear old home.We began spelling.The ranks thinned down rapidly.some of the Indians sitting down before their turn came; and in a short t'me the three principal contestants alone ware standing\u2014Naka and Hank on ome side, Joe on the other.It came Joe's turn.\u2018Commissioner\u2019 was the word.\u2018C-o-m\u2014\u2019 he began, when the door op- enced and in came Private Hobbs, his vacant blue eyes wandering over the assembly, unconscious of the disturbance he was creating.In bis hand were the spelling-tooks that Naka had lost.\u2018I found these over \u2019t the fort,\u2019 he said.\u2018I \u2018thought ye might reed \u2019em, and brought \u2018em along.\" and he placed them on the desk before Joe.AJ's confident manner instantly disappeared.Twice he began the word, Enally spelled it with cne \u2018s,\u2019 and sat down, his small black eyes snapping viciously.It was Hazk's turn next.Poor Hank! He was the wvectim of \u2018clothes.\u2019 That horrible harness-ring hung against his thorax and choked his uiterance ! In his excitement he tore it from his neck, but forgot how to spell the word, His very fcathers seemed to droop as he sought his former seat, which had bcen re-oczupied by the Indian boy, who, now that Hank's glory had in one degree subsided, sexmed to lose bis fear of his clothes, and stolidly regarded him as he approached.Hank seemed disconceried flor a moment, but his face scon regained its usuel indifferent look, Now it was Naka's turn.I can see her yet, and she put back her hair with both hands, advanced one small moccas- ined foot, and prepared to spell.The soldiers listened intently.Hobbs stood, stcoping.his hands on his thighs, his mcuta open, and an intense expression on his face.Even the older Indians forgot to look stumid, and rolled their eyes toward the Hille maid; but Naka saw nothing of this.\u2018C-o-m-m-i-s-s-i-o-n-e-r,\u201d she spelled, and sank upon a bench, \u2018Bully fer you, little girl!\u2019 shouted Hobbs, bringing both his big red hands down upon his knees.\u2018The saddle\u2019s yourn! Here, take it!\u2019 He jerked it down and fairly forced it upon her, The soidiers came forward as one body.The saddie was carried out and placed on ong of the garrison\u2019s ponies.Naka, borne on the shoulders of two of the soldiers, was about to be placed upon it; SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 90 jc, but she made a sign, and was lowered to the ground.With trembling fingers she measured the stirrups, shortened them, and then vaulted gracefully into the saddle.Then came a merry wave of her little brown hand, and she was out of sight around the base of the mountain.WILL T.WHITLOCK.0 WARDROBE OF A MONKEY.One of the Union Club men owns a long-bearded, white-faced YFapanese monkey, whose proud distinction is that he is the best-groomed and best- dressed monkey in all the world.His name is Brummel, and the expenses of his wardrobe form an important item in this gentleman's household accounts.His master sent to Poole.Mr, Pcole isthe most fashionable\u2014which means the most expensive\u2014tailor in London, and therefore in the world.One has to be introduced before Poole will make clothes for one.This was the talk : \u2018You make children\u2019s clothes ?\u2018No, replied Mr.Poole.\u2018Won't you make an exception to your rule, in this particular case ?\u2018I'm sorry,\u201d answered the tailor, \u2018but we haven't got a mam in the place who can make a decent suit for a boy.\u2019 \u2018To be fair with you.\" was the hesitating reply, \u2018it\u2014it isn\u2019t a boy.\u2018Oh,\u2019 said Mr.Poole.\u2018Yes,\u2019 the Ambassador went on, \u2018it isn't a boy ; it's a monkey.\u2019 Mr.Poole dre# himself to his full height, and with considerable hauteur replied : \u2018That's different.I thought it was a boy.Will you bring the monkey here, or shall I measure him at his rocms ?\u2019 \u2018I guess you'd better cemd to his rooms,\u2019 was the reply.\u2018He's not accustomed to tailor shops.\u2019 \u2018What kind of a suit do you want ?\u2019 \u2018Oh, I want several suits.A whole sardrobe, in fact.Brummel needsa dress suit, an ordinary everyday suit, a golf suit, a dressing-gown, pajamas, and a bath-robe.\u2019 Mr.Poole sent Dent, the famous Dent, his head cutter, to measure Brummell, and within two weeks the monkey had the neatest little wardrobe that ever mortal monkey possessed.His dress suit is made \u2018of costliest broadcloth, faced with satin, and stitched throughout with silk.His walking costume is of heavy English tweed, and when you see Brummel with his cap perched jauntily upon his head and a walking stick in one hand you have a vivid impression of having seen something like it before \u2014probably upon a transatlantic liner.His pajamas are of the lightes*.finest Chinese silk, and the ménkey _\u2014 _ \u2014\u2014 ADVERTISEMENTS dsbecrvstecions + ., 4 Asimma | > : Why | BROX Hip + Suffer \"i TROL an Have you lost flee, illness, are you threni.1.- Consumption.if so use DAWSON = + ROYAL EMUisiON, ® A Druggists.gocand $1 \u2018un.: EOC EPPEPG oS P 0s 4, ;

CARDINAL MATTER ot Rome, which he used with the ul- oo z ~\u2014> U I A ETS pho 1 4 took them to see the governor, who wished to inquire into the state of matters in New York.He led the way along the marrow Rue Notre Dame to a long low building with quaint dormer windows, in front of which the Red Cross of St George floated from a\u2019 lofty flag staff, and a couple of sentries paced to and fro in heavy marching order.This building (the Chateau de Pame- zay) had been erected as the residence of the French Governor; but at the time of our story it was the headquarters of C:lonel Burton, the military governor of the district of Montreal, and commandant of His Majesty's forces therein.It was subsequently occupied.during the American invasion, by Brigadier-General Wooster, and by his successor, the traitor Benedict Arnold.It was here, also, that the first printing press ever used in Montreal was erected by Benjamin Franklin, in order to print the proclamation address to Canada.The Governor, afier inquiring into matters, offered them employment in strengthening the defences, and the Germans thus became eye witnesses of many of the events connected with the vain attempts of the Americans to conquer Canada in 1776.Mr.Withrow gives a vivid acecunt of the invasion and its effects in Montreal and Quebec, which is of special interest at the present time.After this he tells of the early Methodist preachers in Canada, especially William Losee, and the help that they found in the \u2018Heck settlement,\u201d where the pretty village of Maitland now stands.| Barbara Heck\u2019s Bible is now in the.library \u201cof Victoria University, Toronto.Of her later life and death Mr.Withrow writes : Chiefly she loved, as she sat in her high- backed arm-chair in the cheerful ingle-nook of the broad fireplace, to converse on the deep things of God with the itinerant Metn- odist missionaries who found beneath the hospitable roof a home in their wanderings, and to learn of the wondrous growth throughout all the frontier settlements of that, eystem of Methodism which she had providentially been the foundress in the two great countries which divide between them this North American Continent.She died at the residence of her son, Samuel Heck, in the year 1804, having completed the full tale of three-score years and ten.\u2018Her death\u2019 writes Dr.Abel Stevens, in his noble eulogy upon her character, \u2018was befitting her life.Her old German bible, the guide of her youth in Ireland, her resource Gur- ing the falling away of her people in New York.her inseparable companion in all her wanderings in the wildernesses of Northern New York and Canada, was her oracle and comfort to the las!.She was found sitting in her Chair dead, With the well- used and endeared volume on her lap.And thus passed away the devoted, obsoure and unpretentious woman, who so faithfully yet unconsclously laid the foundations of one of the grandest ecclesiastical structures of modern ages, and pt whose name shall shine with ever-Increas- ing brightness as long as the sun and moon endure.Mary of the descendants of the Embury and Heck families occupy prominent positions in our church in Canada and the United States amd many more died happy in the Lord.Philip Embury\u2019s great- great-grandson, Jchn Torrance, jr., Esq, has long filled the honorable position of treasurer and trustee steward of tanres large Methodist churches of Montreal.The \u2018Canada Presbyterian,\u201d of To- rento, says of this book : \u201cWe could wish that thousands besides Methodists would read it, at this juncture of our history especially, to kindle and fan \u2018the flame of Canadian patriotism, and that all might learn from this story the imperishable power and beauty of godliness and true religion even in humble life.\u201d (W.Briggs, Toronto.) HIGH THEMES.The \u201cTheology of the Old Testament,\u201d by Prof.Beanet, of Hackney and New College, belongs to a series of books entitled \u2018The Theological Educator,\u201d edited by the Rev.Robertson Nicoll, and published by Hodder & Stoughton.It is a manual of 200 pages in two parts.The first and much the longest division treats of \u2018Jehovah and Israel,\u201d and the second division treats of God and the universe.There is an index of subjects and one of Old Testament passages.yy oe oy ; .Ny \" 6 dr A RARES wea a Ha TAT EAL ER ERE ét.= (W.Drysdale & Co., 2s 64.) \u2018Atheism-and Arithmetic, or Mathematical Law in Nature,\u2019 is one of the numbers of the Anti-Infidel Library.In it Dr.Hastings shows that in nature, order, symmetry and beauty are Wrought out in accordance with mathematical law, and that the simplest of nature\u2019 works reveals the presence of a designing, contriving, numerating mind.Further study into more complex designs discloses other mathematical principles, more subtle, deep, mysterious and far- reaching than those which lie on the surface of things, and are within the ccmprehension of a child.He shows how number rules in plant life, in astronomy, in chemistry, in musical science and in vital action, and argues the necessity of an omnipotent mathematical presiding mind.(Scriptural Tract Repository, Boston, 15 cents.)
