The Royal Electric \u2018Company sent in reges of closely written material.Taw lamp to be used, was the direct current, open are.But if the city desired the alternating current it would be furnished.en terms to be arranged.CITY ATTORNEYS\u2019 REPORT.With these replies \u2018out of the way, the next in order was what the City Attorneys had to say on the rights of tha different companies itn enter the city to.distribute light.The reply was quite lengthy.Most of these had the right to distribute light Regarding the Shawinigan.Water and Power Company, it had not yet in the- city.| obtained the privilege from.the \u2018City Cour efl to \u2018enter the city; the company had, however, Bent in an application for this, which had not yet been acted upon.The chief \u2018interest in the legal opinion was what was sald about the lowest tender.The following is the substance of it.The St.Lawrence Power Company was in- eorporated by Act of Canada, Edward VIL., bill No.69.By this act it possessés, among\u2019 other \u2018things, power to acquire, and to exploit water powers, at or near the St.Lawrence river north shore, {rom Hospel's Creek, in the County of Storment.Ont., to the eastern extremity of the Soulanges canal, in the Province of Quebec.By a federal act (Vic.65) the St.Lawrence Power Company may produce and supply electricity by means of metallic wires, cables, conduits, or by other appliances, and may enter, with une consent of the municipal council, on highways, parks or other public places which are comprised in incorporated cities and towns (clause 9), It may also construct and maintain and use power houses, and exploit water power on the 8t.Lawrence river, in all places, east, between Hospel\u2019s Creek and the castern | extremity of the Soulanges canal.With regard to the provincial charter, we are aware of no provincial charter, or incorporated name of the Ht.Power Company, and we do not find any reference in its federal charter.We are igncrant of private arrangements, or transfers which may exist between the sald \u2018¢oropany and others incorporated.either In letters-patent or acts of parlis- ment, aad we are not sufficiently informed fo promounce upon their validity\u2014hesides the development of \u2018this maz-{\" y would with what would, Lawrence.the question as asked by your commit- | tee does not concern this matter.In the | Present report we can only guard ourselves by acts of parliament and letters-patent which were presented to us.There was no discussion on this doou- ment, but, it is expected, it will play an important part in the debate before the council.\u2019 An .ncident was the hearing of a delegation from the Federated Trades Council.First, Mr.Rodier attempted to speak, but wag iaterrupted by Ald.Ames, who enquired if the delegation had any credentials.The speaker grew very wrathy at this, apd pounded the table: \u2018No credentials,\u201d he shouted, \u2018are demanded from the big corporations.No; you only demand credentials from the workingman.\u2019 1 Ald.Ames explained that he had no de- | sire to obstruct anybody.He acted only as a roatter of precaution.He had been directed by members of the organization to demand credentials in such cases, as they had been imposed upon frequently.Mr.Rodier was then permitted to speak, which he did, for the lowest tender.\u2018Any price above $60 a lamp he declared was theft, pure and simple.\u2019 The other half of the delegation was J.Mack.He fairly roared in thie ears of the aldermen\u2019 to accept the lowest tender, \u2018and I haope you understood that.\u2019 : ; - So: much \u2018voice caused considerable\u201d am-t usement.He\u201dconcluded by saying, he would rather see the aldermen \u2018divvy the $40,000 up among themselves than give it to the Roya! Electric.\u2019 This declaration was greeted with roars of laughter, and somepody enquired which was worse, to \u2018divvy\u2019 it up before or after.MR.AMES PRESENTS MOTION.The table was once more clear for business, and Ald.Ames presented his motion for the lowest tender.It was an exhaustive motion, and read as follows:\u2014 1.Inasmuch as \u2018the present contract for electric street lighting expires on the 31st of December, 1903: 2.And inasmuch as the City Council, by public advertisement in the newspapers, called for tenders for a new contract, expressly stipulating therein that no offer would be considered unless the same were made upon the printed form supplied by the corporation, and unless said offer were deposited with the Ciry Clerk before noob of June 15, 1901;

but \u2018gible enemy.The appearance of Russian cruisers off our Atlantic coast the Jost time there was danger of war with {that country was an object lesson.which | has not been forgotten.Still, we do -mot think there is any need of fortifica- \u2018bases for the royal navy.When Great \u201cBritain, shortly after conféderation, withdrew the troops from Canada, dismantled all the fortifications along the frontier of the Dominion and the repub- lie, and disbanded the Royal Canadian Rifles, she inaugurated a policy from which she never since departed.That policy.is one of friendship for, and confidence in, the good will of the United States.No one sineé that time bas proposed the reconstruction of inland fortifications, and, though there may be jin- goes on both sides who affect to think differently, the good sense of the two coun- {ries is agreed on the principle of maintaining peace.\u2018There really is nothing to quarrel over, certainly nothing serious enough to warrant the idea of an appeal to arms.But the Chicago \u2018In- ter-Ocean\u2019 .is rather extravagant when it says the United States could conquer Canada in three weeks, The: same was said in.the \u2018war of 1812-35, but history tells a far different story, It is hardly likely the United States will ever undertake such an enterprise, and still more unlike- weeks or three years.But this sort of talk by persons assuming to speak for a great nation is hardly worth serious consideration.merci A shock hes been given to the Chria- tian people of New York by the announcement that Mrs.Thomas H.Blair, president of the Young People\u2019s Christian Endeavor Society of Port Morris \u2018Congregational Church, and \u201cMiss Elizabeth Dickinson, secretary of the same ism.That Mormonism should carry on an active propaganda.among church people, who are themselves the most active in sending missionaries abroad, is rather surprising.More so than that they should make occasional converts, for there are men and women in all churches liable to be blown about by every wind of doctrine.Of more importance is it to know the methods pursued by the Mormon missionaries.They insinuate themselves without being identified into the home of the people, and, where pos- gible, into the prayer meetings of the churches.They neither preach nor teach Mormonism, but pretend to be devout \u2018missionaries of a humble Christian sect.They begin in holiness meetings, their plan being to encourage personal testimony, and some excellent people, in the fervor of conviction that they are at- taining to- a higher spiritual life, may found not to possess the confidence of change of administration, and they are: constitution \u2018by the \u2018Imperial Parliament.\u201cthe United States is not the only pos- \u2018tions, except.at; \u2018those points on \u2018the.At-.antie and Pacifio oust.which are Reld-| \u201cand: used by the British Governmient as society, had become converts to Mormon- } fall into the trap.Of great significance is the fact that the Mormons direct their efforts mainly to the conversion of women and girls, whom they deceive by \u2018solemnly declaring that polygamy does not exist.Yet facts are constantly coming to light which prove that it is still flourishing in Utah, where, as well as in adjoining states and territories, the Mormons are building up a politico-religious organization which may yet produce an infinitude of trouble for the government and people of the United States.Pastors of churches to which strangers are invited should take care that wolves in sheep\u2019s clothing do not find an entrance to the hearts of their people.mp0 The defeat of the Dunkin Act in Richmond, the last stronghold of prohibition in this province, chiefly means that the French have so gained ground on the English in that county that their views prevail.Their clergy, were, we understand, in favor of the act, but the people prefer the licensed barroom to prohibition.We do not deduce from this that they are any more partial to the bar- \u2018room than the English.In fact, that they are not proud\u2019 of their position is proved by the fact that hot a man in the county was found willing to stand up at any of the meetings and defend the license system.That unholy task was leit exclusively to the emissaries of the trade.But opposition to prohibition would seem to have become a matter of race jealousy with them.At least that was the principle that wae appealed to by the advocates of license, who flooded the county in the interests of the liquor trade, which made the reduction of this redoubt of prohibition a national affair.One of the most effective appeals made was to the ignorant.Speakers for prohibition pointed out that a large proportion of the petitioners for repeal could not sign their names.Nothing was said as to the nationality ,of these names, but this exposure was harped upon throughout the contest as an insult to the French, to be resented by inviting the liquor trade into the county.The implication would seem to be that liquor and ignorance will always be found in full sympathy.We are not ourselves prepared to belittle the significance of the liquor victory.The argument of its advocates will be that those sections which have held prohibition longest will have none of it.They will also elaim, with more truth, that national prohibition could only be enacted by running counter to the wishes, if not the convictions, of one large section of the people.For this defeat na blame certainly rests with the temperance voxkers of :the: county; Nowhere has there beena more heroic enforcement of the law, when it was law.Never was a more determined or more self-sacrificing fight put up than in the contest just closed.The temperance people have certainly done their duty.They must leave time and sad experience to do the rest.ee The Imperial Bank of Canada is one of the most successful financial institutions in the country.Its progress is fairly described in the last three statements.The twenty-fourth annual Balance.sheet, published in May, 1899, showed earnings of 15.13 percent on a capital of $2,000,000, and a \u2018rest\u2019 of §1,- 300,000, or 65 percent.The twenty-fifth annual statement, published in May, 1900, showed that the bank had increas ed its capital during the year to $2,458,- 603, and its \u2018rest\u2019 account to $1,700,000, or 69 percent.The increase of capital during the year was necessarily gradual, and it is impossible to determine the exact ratio of profits on the average capital employed, but the net earnings amounted to $365,579, or 14.42 percent on the total increased capital.The statement for the present year, published, with a full report of the annual meeting, in another column, shows further and considerable advance.The net earnings are $403,477, or 16.14 percent on the slightly increased paid-up capital, $2,500, 000, and the \u2018rest\u2019 has been increased to $1,850,000, or 74 percent.Compared with last year, the deposits of the bank have increased from $14,137,778 to 815,- 515,756, and the notes of the bank in circulation from $1,710,477 to $1,950,293.The current discounts and advances have grown from $11,289,062 to $12,086,325, and the call loans are found to be almost stationary, $2,107,218 being lent in this way last year compared with $2,108,380 in the present statement.The bank\u2019s total assets have increased from $20,308,394 to $22,182,543, and the cash assets from $8,- 440,952 to $0,543,514.The bank has paid its shareholders two dividends amounting to nine and a half percent for the year, and \u2018carries $104,837 forward to profit and loss account.tre THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MINT QUESTION.Mr.Wilkie, the general manager of the Imperial Bank, has entered the lists as the champion of the government\u2019s policy of establishing a branch of the British mint.with assay offices in Canada.His name has long been among the \u2018most prominent and most fa- SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1901 \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 vorably known of Canadian banken and certainly his views should be ar corded a fair lhearing, especia ly much has been said on the ou Mr.\u2018Wilkie attaches great weig prestige Canada would win by hu ng ther own coinage.\u2018Canadian sovereigns \u2018will circulate side by side,\u2019 he els us, \u2018 with the product of England and Aue : tralia and will pass wherever a By; iti \u2018 sovereign will pass, as currency, and \u2018will advertise to each possessor, Sor \u2018the time being, the wealth of i Da \u2018minion in that precious meta! He points out that Canada\u2019s outpur af gy is about forty million dollars annually, against the United States\u2019 fifty seven million dollars in 1897, and that it % over half a century since the United States established assay offices and a mint.The strong argument Against the branch mint in Canada is that it will not supply us with a gold currency that we will use ourselves, as we prefer the more convenient paper currency, and that therefore to coin Canadian gold the coinage of which yields no profit, bus, on the contrary, would be a source of expense, would be a useless as well a profitless proceeding.Mr.Wilkie ev.dently believes that our gold coinage of sovereigns would go into circulation to some extent, but he argues there is no reason why any more than we can Make use of need be coined; ingots and bars of Canadian gold would find their market best under Canadian instead of United States auspices.But Mr.Wilkie evidently believes that there would be, under proper regulations for the use of none but Canadian silver in Canada & profit on the coinage of the silver.It is well known that Canada receives the minting profits on her own silver coinage at present minted in Great Britain, and that these will be just about consumed by the cost of minting for ourselves.- Mr.Wilkie estimates that the United States coin still in circulation in Canada varies at from @ bundred thous- end to two hundred thousand dollars, and that the profit upon the substitution of Canadian silver coins for this could be gained by Canada.If 89, why is this mot more mow?Mr.Wil kie also holds that the establishment of these assay offices in British Columbia will \u201ccertainly build up trade there by securing Canadian merchants a larger share of the Yukon trade.Since the establishment of regular railway and steamboat transportation from the coast to Dawson City and the settlement of the provincial frontier line and the es tablishment of undisputed customs ot fices, Canadian imports have gradually t 10 the .displaced United States imports until \u2018mow Teaps the full advantage of her sovereignty over Yukon.Mr.Wi kie has no fear that the minting of our own coin\u2019 will interfere in any way with our present excellent currency system.It is perhaps true that the free silver heresy has been so thoroughly killed in the United States that it is not likely to be revived in Canada.snc CONCENTRATION CAMPS.The protected camps into which the non-combatant Boers of the Vaal River Colony and the Orange River Colony have been gathered by the British army are being turned to account by the friends of the Boers within and without the empire to furnish fresh means of attack upon the British Government and army.The necessity of establishing them has arisen out of the character and methods of Boer warfare.The Boers fight as a people, not as a regular army; every man or boy is a combatant, who wears no uniform or distinguishing mark; there are no fortified camps and depots, but every house and every stable is used, if convenient, as a storehouse for ammunition or a military post.There are no Boer military regulations drawing a distinct line between combatants and non-combatants, but, on the contrary, non-combatants are compelled by Boer opinion to become combatants whenever opportunity offers.Men and bors who have surrendered and taken the oath of allegiance have been commandeered afresh; when they refused to break their oaths they have been imprisoned and even shot.Boer women have acted as ammunition storehouse-keepers and bearers, and as commissariat agents, who also, with the aid of the Kaffirs, kept the commandos supplied with remounts, During the first year of the war the British generally accepted surrenders of the Boers and the assur ances of the women that there were no arms or ammunition concealed in their houses, and they left the animals and foodstuffs in the possession of those sur rendered Boers and their families.The sequel showed that this pretended submission of the Boers was a mere method of Boer warfare.As soon as the Brit: ish army passed on the Boers who had surrendered dug up their rifles, their wives brought out ammunition stored in the houses, and the food, cattle and horses were used to furnish the Boer forces anew.Whole districts kad 1! consequence of these Boer methods 10 be reconquered.Of course the success ful raids of such Boer commandants af SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1901.De ett back through the conquered districts was held in the beginning as an excuse for the taking up of arms of many of the surrendered Boers, threatened unless they complied, with death.But there was, too, much evidence in the occasional sniping, the hiding of the rifles, the concealing of ammunition, and the spying of the non-combtants upon the British, that they had calculated upon resuming fighting when the opportunity offered.It was not until distriets had been reconquered many times, until many Boers had surrendered for the fourth or fifth time, and until the British were taunted with being unable to prevent the \u2018slim\u2019 tactics of the Boers, that Lord Kitchener decided upon establishing the concentration camps.It became a military necessity to sweep the hostile districts perfectly clear of houses and food.That could not be done without providing for subsistence of the Boer women and children.So they were gathered into great camps along the lines of the railway.They are supplied with shelter in the shape of sheds or tents, and regular rations are dealt out to them.Hospitals and even schools were established at these camps.If at times the shelter has not been good, and the fare has not been abundant, if the Boers have suffered, they have at least fared far better than the British soldiers themselves.- Indeed, the British loyalists who were expelled from the Transvaal and Orange River Colony and had to ride hundreds of miles, ¢old, wet and hungry in open railway trucks to Capetown or Durban, there to be placed in similar camps at their own or at the British expense, suffered, it is said, far greater hardships.The Boers were reported to have rejoiced over the establishment of the concentration camps, as they said they were thus relieved of all anxiety, and care and expense regarding the subsistence of their families.There has, no doubt, been a great deal of suffering and hardship in these camps, but it is quite cer- tein that the British commander and his staff have done all they could do to make the camps healthy and their occupants comfortable.\u2018The habits of the Boers themselves have made the task of keeping their camps clean and wholesome almost impossible.But the Boer system of warfare, which is so great an advantage to them in maintaining their guerilla struggle, is responsible for the necessity of these concentration camps.There has been too little consideration of all the difficulties, embarrassments end even defeats waich the British have had to encounter owing to the irregular war practices of the Boers, Which would not have been tolerated in a war with a large nation.THE REAL WEALTH PRODUCER.\u2018Ontario Farmer\u2019 attributes the movement of population towards .cities to class legislation, to wit, the protective system, and, what will, we think, be singular to every reader, accuses the \u2018Witness\u2019 of not pointing this out.If there is any paper in Canada which has been invariable in its protestsagainst the protective system, and which has not ceased under any circumstances, to dwell on the evils it is working for Canada, it is the \u201cWitness.\u201d Ita special unfairness to the farmers, who are the producers of almost all our wealth, we have constant iy, pointed out.If we may.drop a word in the ear of our correspondent we may say, that we have had almost no thanks from the farmers for this steady championship.Our circulation has increased amore among the beneficiaries of protection than among those whose cause we \u2018have always espoused.The common cry of those who combine to get their own remuneration increased is that they are the real producers of wealth, and that they, should have a greater share in the product.Now we must affirm that our whole legislation has set itself dead against the real producers of wealth.If it was not for the farmer, who would pay, the manufacturer anything, especially under a protective system, which tends to shut manufacturers up to the home market?If there were no farmers there could be no railways, except to.lumber camps _and mines.The supporters and users of the railways: are either the farmers or those who directly or indirectly live off the farmers.The same is to be said of the cotton mill, the shoe factory, the implement factory, and, in fact, almost every industry we have.It is an infamy that we should so order our legislation as to make everything that the farmer uses more expensive to him for the benefit of other classes of the population.It gives the farmer a market, says the plunderer.We have not seen that it had that result.The tall chimneys did not grow up like mushrooms as was promised.They would probably have grown up faster without protection.But grant that it did create a home market, what good was that to the farmer?It does not matter in the least to the farmer whether his market is near or far, so long as the price of his product is determined by the far market.If you want to increase the market value of the farmer\u2019s product, make it cheaper for him to reach the market that fixes the price of his products.The way to do that is to encourage imports, which will supply return cargoes.To discourage imports is to rob the farmer of his returns with the one hand, while with the other he is being mulcted in the price of everything he buys.When it comes to the assertion, however, that it is the protective tariff which.brings | the agricultural population to the cities, this is only partially true.Truly, if the farmers prospered more, there might be more farms and even more people living on those there are.But after all it only takes a limited number of people to carry on the agriculture of the country, and the use of modern methods tends greatly to diminish the number of people needed, so that the surplus must go to the cities.The tendency to cities has been quite as great in England, where there is no protection, as in Canada, where there is.The chief cause of the poverty of farmers in Canada, it must be remembered, is the competition of new land, which renders the old methods on the old land.unprofitable.This was inevitable, and bas worked against\u2019 English farmers as well as against Canadian.The new conditions demand a higher class of farming.rer THE SPAN OF LIFE.The life assurance companies of Bri- tein have bd a joint committee at work for eight years on a new life table based on the experience of some sixty British offices between 1863 and 1893.The latest and best previous life.table was that of the Institute of Actuaïies, published in 1869.The experience since then has been enormously greater than that previous to\u2019 that date while the indications.| are thats the increased -duratioh of life: tables have to be based.The mew tables have reached a point at which their main results can be given to the public.The investigators were limited to British lives, which had boen accepted by -the companies as unimpaired and which were subject to no hazardous conditions.The most useful figures are those derived from\u201d healthy inale lives under whole life insurances.Under this head were collated 608,000 lives, only 157,000 of which were completed by death.The old standard Him.(healthy male) table was based on 130,000 lives, of which only 20,000 had died, - \u2018Comparing the new era with the old, the average length of assurance until death or withdrawal is tweive and a half years as

science.\u2019 The same writer gives comparisons.between the new healthy males tables and the old Hm.tables at every fifth year of life.The first \u2018table shows the numbers.out of 100,000 at age 10

1857, a committee reported that the ex-] |, periment of maintaining a home for immigrants and other homeless Scots had been tried for six months in Hermine street.Being satisfied with the re- 4 sults, they had leased a honee in St.George street for seven years.The action of the committee was sustained, end the new home wes opened on June 11, with Mr.Norman McDonald as its first superintendent, The home was placed in charge of the charitable committee, with a committee of ladies associated with them.Mr.E.McLennan, assistant secretary of the society, was appointed \u2018secretary of the Bt.Andrews Home.iring the first year 250 inmates found shelter in the home, persons Ata me, and 600 shared.in the society\u2019s bounty.meeting held in November of the same year the enlargement of the home was suggested.In the je 1868 the society became incorporated.At a meeting held in Fel y, 1866, à motion was carried \u2018to secure by purchase the building in Dorchester street the property of Mr.Burnett, for the purpose of a St.Andrew\u2019s Home.\u2019 Arrangements were com: pleted, pnd the deed was.passed on After leaving the Dorchester street Home the society occupied two: other properties, and in 1887 they decided to\u201d purchase the Gould property on Mountain street, from the Canadian Pacific Railway company.This property was purchased and renovated, and a story was added, and the place was ready for occupation in October ot that year.Part of the land facing on Mountain.street was subsequently sold, and the property now ocenpled fronts on Agyeduss t .GEORGE'S HOME: =.In their immigration work the £t.George\u2019s Home, 159 St.Antoine street, receives principally young Englishmen, on their way to the North-West and British Columbia to take up land.This year 142 persons were received in April, 75 in May, and 63 thus far in June.A few families remain.in' the city, but most have gone on to the west.During their stay in the city English immigrants find a good and comiortable home at St.George's, : Sr HIGHER RATES IN MANITOBA GOVERNMENT SUBSID!

and fraternal \u2018societies.you well say, it\u2019s history is too grand a one for it has ever stood in the front rank in the battle for civil and religious freedom, and historians have not been slow to hknowledge the great debt the world owes it.\u2018W.D.\u2019§\u2019 tirede against the Church is in the usual style of those who oe see no- in i Put penethle ople ignore such, 23 wi its faults there is no force in-the world to-day so potent.for good.It is to your own remarks, however, \u2018that I speeially wish to draw attention, es I regret to see a paper such as the \u2018Witness,\u2019 whose articles generally contain sound and intelligent views, astray on a subject which concerns.go many thousands of the best part of our own and other communities.You say that you would he greatly surprised if we should Jearn that Presbyterians had not \u2018been everywhere on record against oath- und\u201d secret societies.But how is it 4 ae a matter of fact y suçh record?I; a era this and the mother couniry I\" haye yet to'learn of a Single initeñcs.in \"which the Presbyteriin Church has put itself on record against secret societies, How is it that this which seems so natural to you to be done bas never actually been done, and the reason you give, namely, that.the oath taken on entering such societies is .necessarily taken in ignorance of what it imparts.Now, if this actually was the case I grant you would have good cause for complaint, But is this a fact or is it not rather an instance of one writing on a subject he does not understand?I am not a Freemason, but I have it on authentic authority that it is not so in \u2018the Masonic order, and as for the fraternal societies I am in a position to say that such a statement is totally at variance with the truth.No candidate is asked to take the oath until the conditions and obligations are explained to him, how then does it come into conflict with the sanctity of the oath or with: trwe manhood?If the candidate cannot comply with the obligations he can withdraw.But of the tens of.thousands .who compose these societies I have never ygt heard of one who refused to take the oath, which is the best guarantee of its beneficent nature.\u201cYour second objection, that an oath implying \u2018an arbitrary limitation of brotherhood being unchristian is plausible but will not stand investigation.It séems to me that almost everything we etn think of begins with a limitation; we from the one to the many, from the particular to the universal, from the concrete to the abstract.To m does one owe in.the a first in- atgnce any obligations?Certainly to his amily a tions, then to his city, or hit chureh, or his society, then to his sont, lastly to humanity.This is a of our nature, and it is an old say- deg thal obarity begins at home; nay, more, Scripture can be edduced jn its fave; for \u2018does\u2019 mot the apostle write D is brethren: \u2018Be charitable to all 3 especi those who are of the Household of faith.Now, this is pre- tieely what the fraternal society incul- © ity, good will to all, but es- \u2018pecially to those of your order.And * out the mature of Sharity drat ogo ¥ ins it expands, but necessarily 1 must first be limited.When we consider the millions that to-day belong to secret and fraternal societies in the Eng- lish-speaking.world alone, when we consider also the infinite amount of good they are accomplishing \u2018in a quiet and undemonstrative manner, and that prinei- -pally amongst the working classes, it would be strange indeed if just cause of complaint could \u2018be brought against \u2018them.It is too late for that now, and the movement is too strong to be stemmed, and their success is their best justification.Small sections of the church from dgnorance may criticise, but the | great body of Christendom can only wel- \u2018come them as being in harmony with its best \u2018traditions and aims.R., Member of the I.O.F.Steerer.; THE SEVENTH DAY.(To-the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u201d) Sir,\u2014I would like to contribute something \u2018on this subject, with an earnest desire to deliver some who may seem to \u2018desire to be under the law.\u2019 The Spirit, in Galatians, takes us back to Abraham to show the difference between law and grace.Gal.iii., 10: \u2018Now to Abraham and his seed were the pro- mises-made.He arith not, and to seeds as to many, but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ.\u2019 Grace (unmerited favor) came by Jesus Christ.How beautifully this is iypi- fied in Isaac, who was a child of promise, withheld until God\u2019s time, sent not in the natural way, a pure gift, offered up by the rather.\u2018By faith Abraham offered up Isaac\u2019 (Heb.xi., 17), \u2018accounting that Ged was able to raise him up even from the dead; from whence also he rgeeived him in a figure.\u201d (Compare John ii, 16.) Bo Abreham\u2019s seed came inte favor through faith, Again they are sheltered by the blood of the Passover lamb, which is Christ in type, led by the pillar and cloud, fed on the manna (Christ) (John vi, 31-85) in faith.\u2018Wherefore then the law\u2019 ?It was added because of transgression, till the seed should come.(Gal, iii, 19.) Unbelief then and self-will brought in the law, pure and holy, but mercy left out.How terrible ! The man.that doeth them shall ve in them.But while they are being written the very first one is bro- \u2018ken, and they must have all utterly perished had not Moses pleaded with dod, even offering to give up his life that they might live.No sooner is this law given than directions are given to Moses to build the tabernacle, where mercy is again offered through the shedding of blood.The law can only kill; Christ makes alive; the law demands; Christ gives, freely gives.Praise his name.\u2018Now in due time Christ died for the ungodly.He hath redeemed\u2019 ws from 4 for \u2018the curse of the law, being made a curse for us, » « .That the blessiog of) # re to secret | Abraliam might come on the Gentiles, through Jesus Christ\u201d So now, \u2018we are justified by faith.\u201d The law is not of faith.Paul says to the Galatians: \u2018Ye observe days and months and times and ears.1 am afraid of you, lest I have estowed upon you labor in vain.Read in the book of Exodus all the terrors attached to the Sabbath alone, and you will be convinced that the law is the \u2018ministration of death\u201d But now it is \u2018abolished,\u2019 \u2018done away.\u2019 Now: Paul says: \u2018I am determined to know nothing among you save Jesus Christ and him crucified.\u201d Our blessed Lord knew well how we would need to keep.before our eyes his suffering and death for us, so his last request was that we remember him in the breaking of bread.\u201cThis do in remembrance of me;\u2019 \u2018And as often as ye do this ye do show the Lord\u2019s death till he come.\u2019 No longer \u2018Thon shalt\u2019 and \u2018Thou shalt not,\u2019 but our high and holy privilege as his bride to remember him who died that we \u2018might live and be brought into that blessed place\u2014heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ.If ye then be risen with Christ seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.Bo we begin our week of service for him by remembering his death, and as we partake of those emblems in faith the Lord has promised to be in \u201cour midst, as he was in: the midst of the sorrowing: eleven on that memorable first -day of the week.So \u2018with joy and sorrow mingling we do remember him\u2019 Thus we find the early Christians engaged in Acts xx., 7.Some find a difficulty with those passages where it is relatea that the apostles preached on the Sabbath days.Bat in every case it was to the Jews, and they went where and when they could find them assembled, not to worship, but to preach Jesus.If we rightly divide the word of truth there will be no confusion.It has been agked, why does God in the law refer to the time when he rested the seventh day?Now, there is much dispensational truth to be seen here, but as to the law, the law presupposes man keeping it perfectly, and in that case God could rest and be refreshed.\u2018And God saw everything that he had made, and behold it was very good.And he rested on the geventh day from all his work.\u2019 But alas! the creature created in his own image fell, and God immediately sets about redeeming him.Has he, as far as man is concerned, rested since?Jesus said when reproved for working on the Säbbath: \u2018My Father worketh hitherto, and I work\u2019 Could the Father rest while his beloved Son lay in the cold sepulchre, spurned rejected ?Shall we in this scene of his rejection rest?We are become workers together with him.\u2018The Spirit and the bride say come.That is our business here.Busy the faithful ones were on that memorable morning, completely occupied with their risen Lord.rrowfully they brought sweet spices to remember their crucified Lord, and in much perplexity, still owning him \u2018My Lord.\u2019 en, lo! the risen one appears \u2018in the morning,\u2019 at the rising of the ies rite doubte \u2018vanish, and, trembling with joy, run to tell thé others.J To her wherewith Christ hath made you free, and be not entangled again in the yoke of bondage.- LOIS HOLTERMANN.Brantford.(To the Editor of the Witness.) ir, \u2014For some time I have noticed articles in your paper regarding Sunday- keeping, and as there seems to be some doubt in the minds of some honest but not well-informed people as to whether Sunday is the proper day, also as to whether Christians are bound to observe any day, I would like to have a little say on that question, nat in & spirit of controversy, but in the hope of giving some light to #hose who appear to be seeking for it.I have very carefully read the letter of H.J.Farman end fail to find any evidence that the early Christians observed Saturday.Several hundred years before Christ's resurrection David pointed to the Sun- \u2018day of Christ's resurrection and eaid in Psalm cxviii, 24: \u2018This is the day the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.\u2019 He specifies clearly: \u2018This is the day .- .we will rejoice and be glad in it.\u201d That specific Sunday is the y the Lord hath made.Not à day of pagan or papal institution, -but the day the Lord hath made.If Sunday is to become the unchan able, enduring Sabbath of the B there ought to be evidence of the abro ation.of the changeable Sabbaths of the Jewish di ation, and there is.The Bible furnishes plenty of evidenced .Moses instituted \u2018oblations,\u201d the .ofiering of \u2018incense,\u2019 the observance of the \u2018first day of the month,\u2019 the keeping of \u2018Sabbaths\u2019 and the calling of \u2018assemblies\u2019 But the children of Israel had so corrupted and.perverted these things that Isaiah records God's displeasure.(Isaieh i, 13, 14.) God\u2019s dissatisfaction is evident from the above quotation, and we may infer that he will remove what he so much \u2019 hates.Hosea records the promise of God that he will remove all those things.\u2018I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons and her Sabbaths.\u201d When God promises that he will do a thing he does it, The above quotation is from Hoses ii.; 11.(See Eph.ii, 15 Paul teaches that God abrogated the covenant made with the children of Israel and gave us a new one (Heb.viii., 10) written on the heart.And Sunday has been written (as the Sabbath) on the heart of every true follower of Jesus Christ during the last eighteen hundred years.When God made the new covenant the first became old.(Heb, vil, 6-13.) .When God eaid that he would cause all their Sabbathe to cease He did not mean a\u2019 few, but all.We need not, like the Adventists, blame the Pope, for God says I will cause them all to cease.He means just what he said: Paul says the Jewish Sabbaths were a shadow.(Col.Hi, 17) No man would buy the shadow of the best horse in America.He would want the object | thet cast tbe shadow.Those who keen \u201ction of the

constructed as to live a long time without absorbing much molsture from the ground, and 80 will flourish in an arid soil, where other vegetation refuses to grow.They are very decorative when well established, and some of them are suitable for carpet bedding, and are easily \u2018worked into geometrical figures, if thaf is the taste.of the grower.The taller varieties are choice boarder plants and well repay cultivation.There is a Japanese, Jats blooming plant, Se- dum -Spectabile, that fs very showy, hav- Jing broad light green foliage and tmmense |\u2019 flat heads of handsome Tose

:=Fourg Gardener\u2019 has a bit of rich land that: he \u2018would like to make into.a strawberry bed, and -asks several questions.Ans.rich.\u2018 This- plant is a gross feeder, and will take in any fertilizer that is offered ; but barnyard manure is most available.Spring planting is best, but good results can be obtained by planting during a wet season in mid-summer.Your land that has been in potatoes should be in proper condition, and as yoù say, is now in early peas, 50 that when they are finished, you could begin to plant.As to pot grown plants, there is a diversity of opinion on the subject.If near at hand, good, young plants (layers), will answer.If they have to be carried far I should prefer the pot plants.After growth begins, cultivate.well and keep the runners in line.After the ground is frozem mulch the surface with swamp hay or chopped straw 4f clean.This will prevent freezing and thawing, and can be taken off in spring to allow of cultivation, which must be kept up until the fruit is well set, after which the mulch can be replaced between the rows.This will prevent the fruit from getting the sand in time of showers, keeps in tbe motsture, and makes the work of picking pleasanter and easler.; As to the length of time a bed can remain before being ehangad to new quarters it is allowed that two full crops are all that can be taken off with profit.The expense of weeding is considerable, and as an old farmer remarked: \u2018They're pesky trings for gathering weeds.\u2019 For varieties there are some new sorts that have to be tested in one\u2019s own locality, for this fruit is not always the same in \u2018different soils.For well tried varieties I should prefer Gandy, and Kirkwood for late, and Cumberland or Sharpless for early and mid season.CANKER WOR, \u2018J.B.~The Insect described is\u2019 doubt- folla.\u2018The leaves of the true Veitchil vary | or receiving larger specimens of the plants, \u2014You cannot make 8

THEY HELP with certainty : MACKAY OF FORMOSA AS I KNEW (By.the Editor of the \u2018Westminster.\u2019 No man knew all there was to be known about Mackay of Formosa.He did not his heart on his sleeve or prattle on the housetops the secrets of is life.He had a genius for silence rather than for speech, and it was only incidentally and unawares that he revealed himself, even to his intimate friends: That Highland reserve, original in his nature, was strengtheved and made more pronounced by his life among a strange people, and In the midst of suspicion and peril: Dr.Mackay as I knew him was made known to me in those long, hot, hard days in the summer of 1885, when we worked together for weeks a a time in the frankest and most unrè- | served association, .gathering up the fragments of his life-stôry, and preparing for the press the materials wi ch went to e \u2018From Far Formosa.When I read the message, three words long: \u2018Dr.Mackay dead,\u201d my mind went back to that last visit to Canada and to Mackay as I knew him.The first time Mackay made any deep jn.the winter of .1880- omen Di Prat fright ; few days ; Sabbath he preached in several of the churches, but of those meetings I have h, \"and.was addressed a mass meeting in Knox Church; that meeting is clear in my memory a8 if it were last night.The church was crowded from the pulpit to the last inch of space at the doors.I found standing room against the back wall in the far gallery.Mackay was at his best.The spirit was on him.He held himself well in check, but at times the pent up thought and feeling within broke loose and swept everything away ina burst of intense, onate, almost resistless eloquence.It was genuine eloquence.- Not the studied sentences and polished paragraphs of the school-taught orator, but the.transfigured and throbbing speech of a great mature all on fire with enthusiasm and zeal and holy love and feeling the fate of his beloved For mosa hanging on the impression of that hour.How $e rang out that \u2018Formosa!

to the persuasion of his friends.It was well they succeeded then, for had they failed the thing would .never have been done.; In the epring of 1895 Dr.Mackay came to be at St.Thomas, bringing a great quantity .of literary material\u2014an almost hopeless mass of unrelated notes and comments and outline reports\u2014and charged me with the responsibility of ordering \u2018it all aright and seeing it through the press.As look over those bundles of papers now, having destroyed none of them,.I marvel at the temerity of my consent.The discourager ment of the situation was increased by the assurances from one and another that Dr.Mackay was a hard man to work with and a man impossible to .please.But my fears were groundless, When the materials were mastered and a plan outlined, Dr.Mackay erred, if he erred at all, in his unwillingness to criticize.Day after day we worked together, sometimes in St.Thomas,sometimes in Wood- \u201cstock, sometimes in Toronto, and a.more considerate collaborator could: not \u2018be found.He was.not a writer.Sus- \u2018tained literary composition was impossible.for sie aie would 88; in bia \u2018strong- Highland aceept, would.rather L walk all day and every day for a: week On through the miry rice fields of the Kap- teu-lan Plain, than write one page for a bpok But his judgment of a ork was keen and critical, \u2018I don\u2019t like \u2018the dead-level style of home men, he would say, \u2018I like the mountäins an vai, leys.\u201d And so I had to put \u2018mountains \u2018and valleys,\u2019 the vivid and picturesque, into his book.As it is given to the world not one page of \u2018From Far For- -mosa\u2019 was written by Dr.Mackay, and paragraphs and chapters which reviewers and friends have pronounced most characteristic, were, in reality, reproduc: tions of speeches, or the gathering up © a half-day\u2019s interview, the final form of which he read for the first time when the book réached him in Tamsui.His judgment of the work in its completed form was, \u2018I wouldn't change one word.It is true, every word of it.\u2019 It was mob & very difficult task to write Dr.racks ue story in he irit of ackay's life.e .couk not write his story, but he could tell it with uncommon dramatic end imaginative power.An editor's business was to grasp Mackay\u2019s facts, as he told them, in the upreserve of the study, see things as he saw them, feel as he felt, and then give expression to the fact and thought and feeling as MacKay would have done had he been a man of litera ture rather than aman of action.Now that the clye is offered

the story is Mackay\u2019s genuine and historical, is our contention, no matter what the higher: critics may come to say.In those frank and closerange talks, when he discussed nearly every point in the history of the Formosa mission, and touched upon the vexed questions of mission administration, dealing with matters | which were delicate and personal, I found myself growing in admiration for Dr.Mackay\u2019s character, and in approval of fis methods, It: was need should know his personal opinion on many points, not for publication, but for guidance in my work as editor, and not once did he speak unkindly of any man.He held to his own views with characteristic tenacity, and it was not easy for him to see himself or those with whom he found it difficult to work as he or they were seen by each other or by outside observers.Time and: experience and the grace of God mellowed G.L.Mac- Kay, as they do: every great nature.Life taught him lessons which 2 smaller man would not have learned.I learned, too, how difficult it might be for another man\u2019 of different monld and different temper to co-operate with ackay.He formed opinions of men rapidly, and by instinct, and he held them firmly.The man he trusted he would trust fully, another and as trustworthy a man he might not trust at ail.His judgments were not always just, as is the way with all such natures.But in his later years he was able to make \u2018allowance for another\u2019s disposition and point of vieiv.It must bave been wearing to keep activity and quick decisions.He was {ull of energy and had nerves of steel.Physical work and exposure seemed powerless to touch him, and after ten hours of close and exhausting study of diffieult and delicate situations, when the reading and interviewing and writing left me nervously fatigued to the last point, he was as fresh as at the beginning and would sleep as soundly as a child.\"He was as easily entertained a guest as one could desire.He and Koa Kau were

nature, adding force to his faith and making his life a factor in the Church\u2019s history was his simple trust in God, his unquestioning belief in an evangelical Gospel, his deep-cut conviction as to his own life-work and as to the mas- -tership of Jesus Christ in the lives of men and in the history of nations, and his unreserved, enthusiastic, passionate surrender of himself to Jesus ag Redeemer and King.He did not analyze his religious convictions.The heat of his obedient and heroic faith fused into one dominant idea what was real to him\u2014 God and Christ and the: human soul.I see him now, as he stood that last day on the station platform at Wood- stoek, in the autumn of 1895, going away from his.old home as be believed, and as has proved to be true, for the third faith

young women in society, young women of all sorts and conditions, are included in this invitation.Opportunity to study the Bible and to consider the methods of Christian effort and missionary progress will be afforded under eminent speakers from home and abroad; and there will likewise be time for pleasant social intercourse and recreation.Those who would grow in earnestness and consecration, those who are conscious of a desire for something more than they have hitherto\u2018known of the reality of the Christian life, will find great help and enduring power in this conference.We ask young women to come and spend fen beautiful days of summer in a beautiful lace in united prayer and praise to Christ.We ask those who cannot come to remember the conference in their prayers; and we issue this call in his name who has pledged his presence and benediction wherever his disciples meet.Margaret E.Sangster, for the North4cld J Committee.and last time, his ardor unquenched, his, ~ ME.§ R § Ee a à map 4e WE arts br 7 ol me es Se poy orm ra ic men ST TE a TOIL LTT M Jc SAR PEA SRT SET MU spider cir Eee SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1901, \"ORY OF BY me Gal at \"WITNESS SUMMER RESORT BUREAU for further information and Tok over the Bonklots and Cironlas descriptive of these Ress In Writing to Proprietor, Please Mention Montreal ARE YOU GOING TO THE SEASIDE OR COUNTRY?The Publishers of the Witness\u2019 have again opened the SUMMER RESORT, INFORMATION BUREAU, at the \u2018 WITNESS\u2019 PRINTING.HOUSE, Corner Craig and St.Peter streets, where those contemplat- ng going to a Summer Resort may, at their leisure, look over interests ing Booklets, Pamphlets and Cards, descriptive of the leading Summer Resorts of Canada and the United-States.Also time tables of Railways and Bteamboats reaching.these resorts, together with descriptions of the interesting points along the various routes.This is the oldest newspaper Summer Resort: Bureau in Canada.A cordial invitation is extended to all \u201c Witness\u2019 readers to consult the Bureau, which is open during regular office hours.- ee eer pme .LITTLE METIS.The.great éhing about Metis is the bracing, invigorating air.\u2018There\u2019s nothing like Moti eir\u2014is the testimony of those who have spent their vacation | there, among whom dre many: of the nicest people of Montreal.The sea bathing comes next to thie sea air as sn attraction, and the splendid trout lakes within easy reach are sufficient in ihem- selves to attract many fishermen.Metis is \\indeed a choice seaside resort, and the \u2018Cascade House,\u2019 en its fine Jie, Pleasant surroundings, links, bow] ing alley, bot and cold sea water pates, and pleasant, beach, gives its guests great satisfaction.\u201d So {hey all æy.BOARD, LACHUTE, QUE.\u2014FIRST-CLASS board and large airy.rooms;

SOME ELQQUENT \u2018SREECHES AT.THE BANQUET OF THE LONDON AND NEW YORK CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE.At-the banquet given by the London Chamber of Commierce to the visiting , members of the New York Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, June 5, the brotherhood of the peoples of the United States and Great Britain was warmly and with obviously sincere sentiments dwelt upon., \u2018Lord Brassey, president of the London Chamber of Commerce, as chairman, welcomed the American guests, and said: \u2018When difficulties had arisen in relation to Venezuela, the London Chamber of Commerce appealed to the New York Chamber to use their good offices in the cause of a peaceful solution.(Hear, hear.) - They responded to the call.The London Chamber : desired to mark their deep sense of the services rendered, and it had \u2018brought them together that even-: ing.(Cheers.) Yor the statesman, for the man of business, and for citizens.of .all: classes, thefe.-was no.nohler cause which to - labor than that of \u2018binding |\u2019 America \u2018and Great Britain closer in the bonds of kindly sentiments, and happily the importance of that great cause was recognized by those in the highest places.(Cheers.) Speaking the same language, reading the same books, firmly attached to the same principles of ordered liberty, there \u2018was the basis -of an, intimate and enduring friendship between the kindred peoples.(Cheers.) \u201cBlood is thicker than water.\u201d (Cheers.) To.no other nation were we drawn as we were to our kinsmen across the Atlaptic.by that closest of all ties.(Cheers.) Working together for the common good wef all man- d, we.might keep the door open for trade, \u2018we might spread civilization, protect the oppressed, and establish peace among the nations.Let none who had gn.opportunity of promoting a union so beneficent neglect it.\u2019 Mr.Morris K.Jesup, in reply, thanked the London Chamber of Commerce for their generous reception of the New York Chamber.It was a happy inspira- tion- that dictated their kind invitation, and if their coming together at that time served.to bind in closer ties the relations bétween the two nations the hopes and expectations of his colleagues would be fulfilled.They did not forget hèôw England had during a long period aided them primarily by the inculeation of those principles of religion, justice and law which the Americans had imbibed from the British as the foundation of all'commercial transactions, and secondarily by the free lending of capital to enable them to make use of their great resources; and they did not forget the kindness shown to them by: England in times of financial distress, notal but.Of war with: this country, the illustrious, wise \u2018and\u2019 beloved Queen was their best friend, and left the dying bed of her husband to stay the.hand that might otherwise have been.lifted against them.No jealous rivalry exists between the two eoples; there could be none.(Cheers.).hey were the same race, the same blood; the same language and traditions; we have the same religion, civilization and laws.They could only be rivals in the effort each might put forth, actuated.by the same desires, to carry to the ends of the earth the blessings of their civil and religious liberty.(Cheers.) Lord Avebury, in proposing the toast of \u2018Commerce and manufactures,\u201d said commerce, like mercy, was twice blessed; it blessed him who gave and him who received.We were a commercial na- \u2018tion, biit \u2018yet.commerce.was even now much misunderstood.| Many seemed to suppose that if-one person profited some one else must lose.On the contrary, both were.benefited.(Hear, hear.) Again, we often saw complaints that we imported too much and exported too lit- te.Canning, in two well-known.lines, complained that\u2014 \u2018In matter of commerce \u2018the fault of the Is giving too little and asking too much.\u201d (Laughter.) Now the-opposite complaint was made.We heard doleful dirges that foreign nations sent us.so much, and took so little in return; that we should be ruined because they sent us such cheap goods; .that foreigners charged high prices at home, and \u2018dumped down\u2019 their surplus produce here almost for nothing.But our exports were what we\u201d pre in return for our imports, and if we ad to buy food or raw materials, the less we paid for them.the more money.\u201cto.fructify.in\u201d-oùr pockets.| remain C (Hear, hear.) To say that commerce was twice blessed was understating the'case.He might have said thrice.We had the highest authority that \u2018Blessed are the peacemakers.\u201d Commerce was the great peacemaker of the world.It made us tter acquainted with each: other, and\u2019 in, nine cases out of ten if they come to Know anyone they would come to like him.They would find unsuspected mer- jts, and excuses for most faults.Look et biographies, especially autobiograph- jes, how many merits people had which we overlooked.A Welsh preacher out for a walk on his native mountains once saw a.monstrous figure on an opposite hill; as he got nearer he saw it was a man, and when he came close he found it was his own brother, (Laughter.) Many.people here and abroad seemed to think that all foreigners were mon- stera; at any rate, that seemed to be the general opinion of those who wrote for \u2018the foreign press.\u201d Commerce brought us \u2018together, and showed that we were brothers.I had been wittily said that presents endeared absents.So did commerce.Commerce, it sometimes seemed to him, bad done.more for peace than even religion.Commerce was never militant.- It did- not.divide nations \u2018into sects, but bound us together by com- | mon intérésts, by links of gold, like wedding rings.(Hear, hear.) The great clasejeal writers, Plato, Aristotle, and othére spoke \u2018contemptuously of merchants.Perhaps they were.unjust to their own countrymen;.but, if not, it- ight account for the fact that \u2018the ly in 1837.(Cheers.).They could never forget that when, during: their late strug le, they were not only.th a divided country, were overshadowed by the \u2018menace THE SALE OF THE KING'S HORSES AT WOLFERTON ! A TANDEM PAIR.\u2014London \u2018Graphic.King Edward VII.as is well known, js, and has been for many years, an enthusiastic breeder.of horses and stock.With the care taken in their selection it 8 mot to be wondered at therefore that much interest is taken by horse dealers of the best class and the horse-loving public generally on the occasion of the sale of any portion of His Majesty\u2019s.stud.As can well be imagined, there is active competition: at these sales and the bidding is always brisk, \u2018ong\u2019 prices being invariably realized.commerce of the Mediterranean was mainly in the hands of the Phoenicians.Success\u2014 permanent success \u2014in commerce demanded high qualities, industry, ability, \u201ctact and fair dealing.(Hear, hear.) He had also to couple with this toast \u2018Success to manufacturers.\u2019 How much we owed them.\u2018The alchemists of the Middle Ages, the magicians of pre-\u2019 historic times, were nothing to our manufacturers of to-day.They seemed to possess the philosopher's stone and AX] addin\u2019s lamp.Indeed, the old alchemists only dreamt of one philosopher's stone, but our modern chemists seemed to be able to turn any stone into gold.(Hear, hear.) The fairy godmother of our nursery tales could not hold an electric lamp to them.And yet what they had done was nothing to what we might hope for in the future, for even now they would agree.with him that there was not a single substance all of the properties of which were yet known to- us.(Hear, hear.) They felt that commerce and mpanufactureres.were guarantees for the .peace\u2019 of the world, and gave them rea- | sonable hopes of the.progress and prosperity, not only of the two nations in which they were primarily.interested, but also of the rest of the civilized world.(Cheers.) .Re Mr.A.Foster Higgins, in response, said: \u2018His \u201ccountrymen well knew how sincerely \u2018the available friendship of Queen Victoria was always exhibited in their favor, whatever influences were exerted to the contrary.That this kindly feeling was reciprocated.by all the: fair- \u2018minded thinking.people of the United States, be most heartily assured them.That feeling \u2018still existed, and with the experience of this delegation was certain to be intensified and increased.It was difficult in words to express how surprised and gratified they all were at cious reception accorded to day last by King Edward: and his lovely Queen Alexandra; its freedom from all restraints of .cold etiquette, its unmistakable cordiality and friendship.were taken by each and every one of them as an evidence of their Majesties\u2019 feeling to.their country, and as such ever believe and report.it.(Hear; hear.) He begged the people and rulers of Great Britain to be patient with them, not to.mistake local, temporary outbursts of temper, à spleen as in any degree whatever indicative \u2018of national feeling, but to regard them as due to the fact that they were not yet homogeneous: animosity and but were still lärge-, J er their democratic foini of government! it had not -been impossible to- cultivate and advance the grand world-mo¥ing power of altruism.It was their delight to know that this sublime, \u2018Godlike 2nd God-given aspiration equally filled the and old nation of Great Britain.They ooked to Great Britain to go with thn hand\u2018 in hand.\u2019 In tue word: of Charles Kingsley, \u2018The age of chivalry is never past, so long as there is a wroug left un- Tedressed on earth.They believed that by various means all wrongs would eventually be righted, and principaiiy by ihe united efforts.of the English-speaking race, (Cheers:) ) Mr.A.Barton Hepburn, who also responded, said wherever the British fla; had been unfurled.material, moral, an .social advancement had followed.(Hear, hear.) Inviglability of contract, a high standard of commercial honor, and the \u2018open door\u2019 were among the blessing which followed British rule.Bank of England had become the world-wide synonym for financial strength, pounds sterling the measure of value, and English the language of commerce.In the promotion of their manufactures and the development of their commerce Americans proposed to help Great Britain to maintain these conditions (hear, hear), and whenever an issue was presented involving national or commercial honor the American people would be found true as steel and good as gold.(Cheers.) The Lord Chief Justice said of course their thoughts turned that might to that branch of their kinsmen who came from the great Republic.of the West.He \u2018need not remind them that scores and \u2018hundreds of the citizens of the United States came to England to trace out the places of their ancestors, and to revisit the old Cathedrals, to which they felt the United States as well as Great Britain \u2018had a claim.He knew from personal experience that Englishmen had | only to go to the \u2018United States to re ceive a welcome, even from casual trav- The ellers in a steamboat or train (cheers), that would convince them that there was something more than the mere skin-deep hospitality which some people thought was the only thing that was necessary.He believed he was the only Englishman who had been allowed to address the: judges of the Supreme Court of the United States on two separate occasions, He was afraid he did not make much impression upon them.(laughter), but the result was not altogether unsatisfactory.(Hear, hear.) Ihe United States ambassador, we was heartily ered on rising, propose \u201cLhe London Chamber of Commerce\u201d He said: I rise to propose a real benediction in offering the last regular toast in honor of the London Chamber of Commerce, which Æ£ shall do without more ado and in as few words as possible, The London Chamber of Commerce has done a noble and magnanimous act in thus extending the.right hand of fellowshjp to the most formidable rivals they have in the kindred nation across the sea (cheers)\u2014an act of friendship which,\u201d I believe, speaks the true sentiment of the vast majority of the people on both sides of the Atlantic towards the other mation.(Hear, hear.)

That ble in d and \u2014\u2014\u2014 ORIGIN OF NAVAL CUSTOMS, A curious fact, not generally known is that the black sillc handkerchief whic, Jack knots around his throat wag rat worn as mourning for Nelson, and has ever since been retained.The three white stripes around the broad blue oo).lar of the sailor's jumper commemorate the victories of Trafalgar, Copenhagen and the Nile.Thus the Nelson legend affects not only Jack\u2019s work, but his food and clothing as well.The broad blue collar itself is older than the great Admiral.It was first adopted at that period when sailors plastered their hair into à stiff pigtail with grease and power._ At nine o\u2019clock each night the sentry in every ship in harbor fires off his rifie.For the origin of this custom we may have to look back to the days of flintlocks.Then, in order to test the priming and see that his weapon was in usable condition, the sentry had to fire it of each night.There is no necessity for such a test with modern rifles; but the nine o'clock firing is religiously carried out.Every officer or man climbing to the quarter-deck salutes.The origin of this usage dates back a long way.When England was a Roman Catholic country a crucifix stood on the quarter-deck of all ships.Every time any of the crew approached this holy symbol they crossed themselves.Out of that has grown the custom of saluting the quarter-deck.A TIGER\u2019S BITE.I have more than once heard of a man defending himself from the onslaught of a lion or tiger, by thrusting his rifle barrel down its throat in the last resort.Poor Major Sandbach, of the artillery, came to his death in So- maliland a few years ago in attempting to thus hold off a lioness, which neve:- theless managed to inflict on his hand and arm bites which proved fatal.A curious story of the same kind comes from the Khandwa district of northern India.Mr.Bayley, also an artillery officer, \u2018was charged by a wounded tiger which he was following up.He missed it with his first barrel, and the second iail- ed to go off.The tiger sprang, and Mr.Bayley juniped to one side, thrusting out his rifle to keep the brute off.The tiger, it is stated, seized the barrels and drove his teeth through them, and, be ing unable to withdraw them, was shot by Captam Harrison, Mr.Bayleys com: panion.: In his death struggle tbe tiger drag ged the rifle from the owner's hands and the jar caused by the stock striking the ground broke off two teeth which were embedded in the steel.This story is said to be absolutely true; but with the profoundest respect for the strength of the figei\u2019s jaws and teeth, I venture to \u2018think it wants explanation.\u2014London \u2018Sketch.\u2019 \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 U.S.CONSTITUTION AND EX >ANSION.(London \u2018Times.\u2019) It would be foolish to express a decided opinion on the merits of a controversy as to which lawyers in the United States are divided.1f we suggest that the letter of the constitution and the course of decisions are in favor of the minority, and that the decision raises 2% many legal difficulties as it solves, we do so with diffidence.We would go so far as to say that a contrary decision would at this time have been a serious anach ronism.The court yields to a law oi de velopment to which all institutions a\" amenable.The cause of the anti-expst sionists was lost long ago\u2014lost, some would say, in the far off times when the state of Massachusetts protested against the admission into the union of Lousr ana as unconstitutional.It was all very well to preach the doctrine that the constitution followed the flag in d8}# when Calhoun and others who used that expression had in view a definite result which they had much at heart.Liter, ally applied to-day, that doctrine FOY be fatal to expansion along the ime which the people of the United States have marked out for themselves.10% are not prepared to part with what they have won or to shut themselves out © the possibility of one day acquiring more: Neither are they prepared to forcé in publican institutions upon people total ; unfitted for them, or to welcome 3 Washington batches of black and yellow senators.They mean to be tree to do \u2018# other countries have done in like ei cumstances.Jefferson declared that ve federal judges, whom he disliked, We \u2018a corps of sappers and miners, sted ve undermining.the constitution.W hat A thought destruction was developmen On this occasion they have engineerty perhaps not very skilfully, a road for iL\u20ac safe advance of the republic into reg!
