(Marine) OFFICES: Columbia St., New West'r. di Government St., Victoria dwasiiyi Oliver Weiuloll Homos, being bored by a dull public lecturer, uak- otl, "What nre you ali-out at this time ?" Tho answer was, "Lecturing, as usual, I hold forth this ovening at Roxbury." The professor, clapping his hands, exclaimed, "I am glad of it; I never did like those Roxbury peoplo." The prevailing craze for the investment of English capital in other countries is shown by the formation of it syndicate recently in London with a capital of nearly â £300,000 for tho purchasoof 18,000 acres of,tobacco land in Cuba, os well as an immense cigar and cigarette factory, which is already in operation. [t is now proposed to hold'a world's' fair in London in 1891, and the idea is favorably recoived in England. But it is pointed out tlmt there is no time to mako ndequato preparations for such un ulFuir. The present Parisian exposition was first proposed fivo yoars ago, and it required threo years of labor to bring it to perfection. Besides that, the project to hold a fair in New York in 1892 is well undor way, and it would be useless to expect to make a success of two affairs of this sort in continuous years. Strangerâ"Havo you any choice lots on hand V Land-ownerâ"Yes. sir; yes, sir; something lino ! The nicest lots that ever laid outdoors! Thero aro two: all improvements, convenient to cars, clear title, etc. They aro choice, but I will muko them §1,500 for cash." Strangerâ "Well, I-nm not buying; I'm making assessmentsâdid you say $1,- 500 each for those lots?" Landowner (liastly)â"No, oh no j for the two !" Strangerâ"Any more choice lots ?" Land-ownerâ"That's all -just about sold out." Thero nro but four persons in tho United States, besides those holding publio offices, says the N. Y, Graphic, who are allowed the privilege of sending and receiving mail mutter freo. These four persons are the widows of Presidents Polk, Tyler, Garfield aud Grant. That letters, newspapers, and parcels oan be sent to them freo, one would think was rather a nuisance than otherwise, and places them at the mercy of the thousands of "cranks", who aro always on tho alert to send presents ranging in character from clothes* wringers to horned toads, to distinguished peoplo. A Swedish statesman recently inveighed most eloquently in parliament against oleomargarine. Noxt ovening lie was invited to dine with tho Icing, who loves a joke. There was only oleomargarine on tho royal table, and the statesman liberally partook thereof. At the close of tho meal tho king nsked him: "Well air, how do you like our butter 1" "It is excellent," replied tho statesman; "tho contrast between it and artificial butter is very mnrked." "But said tho king, that is artilicnl butter 1" Tho other guests roared with laughter, but tho "old parliamentary hand" returned quick ns a llnsh: "Your Majesty, if one can bo deceived so easily thoro is all the moro neod of strict laws against bogus goods 1" During tho tariff debate in con- gross last summer Congressman Reed, of Maine, tho Republican lender in tho House, said : "I tell you what we mean to do ; we mean to keep this wealth here. Wo moan to do it oven if wo build a Chinese wall of tarill' taxes around this country." Tho Springfield Republican calls his attention to the fact that something more substantial than a taiifV wall will ho necessnry toefifoct this purpose. It is estimated that 100,000 American tourists have gone to Europe this summer, nnd that they will spend at least $100, 000,000 of American wealth. It Imsjust been announced, moreover, thnt nn American heiress is nbout to marry a Frenuh prince, and this means tho loss of ,i million or so more. Tho only proper wny to carry out tho Ropublioan policy will be either to put the wealthy Americans in gnol, or else tako thoir wealth nway from them and lock it up in tho treasury.âMail, -lob printing of all kinds neatly done nt tbe CoLVMniAH offioo.

Tlio entire business portion of Spokane wus destroyed, covering forty blocks. Tbo firo broko out iu a frame block near the depot and a high wind prevailed. The Pacific hotel soon caught and then tlio passenger nnd freight depot, thenco sweeping over the city. The firo exhausted itself at the river for want of material to consume. Tho burned part includes all from the N. P. Ry. to the river and from Lincoln to Washington street. All the Hour mjd lumber mills are destroyed. Tiio N. P.

An unknown man m* Bhot by an exploding cartridgo and several other fatalities occurred; names unknown. All supplies and provisions in tho city woro burned.

Eight companies promptly responded to tho alarm, hut did not arrive beforo the whole ol the outhouses and wagon sheds were in a blaze. The wator poured into the buildings in groat quantities with littlo effect on tho flames. Tbey spread rapidly nnd it was not 20 minutes after tho firo was discovered until the whole building was enveloped in flames, which soon communicated to tlie stables in which wore several horne-*, but tho animals woru taken out without trouble, Tho stairway of tho mnlt house was burned, but the tiro in this department was extinguished with no groat loss.

Washington, Aug. 5.âTho government officials generally decline to express opinions relative to the escape of tho Black Diamond to Victoria, B. C, The fact that tho vessol ran away with our prizq crew of ono man, excites much milth among all officials, ln the absence of official communication from the commander of the Rush, tbo officials hero decline to tnlk. At tho treasury department it is generally belioved the matter will be allowed to drop whero it nuw stttnds. Ono government official said: "Wo have got tho seal-skins and thoy have got iho vessel, I think, wo have got the heat of tho bargain and should let the matter drop." A YANKEE THIS TIME Halifax, N.

General Grenfell Engages the Dervishes and Gains a Glorious Victory. The Evidence Cfiven by Mrs. Maybrick To-day Causes a Great Sensation. The First Shot Fired by the Cretan Revolutionists and Serlona Troublo Feared. Preparing for liculli. Thomas Meldrum, J. P., a rancher and trader fn Chilcoton country, 20 miles from Soda Creek, who has been ill for tbo past four months, has made all preparations in advance for his burial. Ho personally selected the Bpot where ho is to be buried, nnd has had his grave dug. His coffin haa been mado and tested aa to whether it is a good fit. Ho haa nlso made every arrangement for the distribution of a large propetty which ho has amassed during his residence in Chil* coten. Mr. Meldrum is a man of high intelligence, and waa formerly a wealthy merchant of Barrio, Ont., but rovoraoa came and ho emigrated to thia country in the early sixties. Ho has been farming and trading over since hia arrival in the country, and was ot one time a partner of W. Pinchbeck, of William's Lake. Ho has been a justice of the peace for somo years, and is universally respected in tho district.â Colonist. WUY HE RESIGNED. Hore a Mailer or tiood t-imc Than Pique. Ex-Mayor Hendry speaking to a Colonist reporter at Victoria on Friday night said: "My reaaons for resiguinj my position as mayor of Woatminator are vory simple. I au greatly interested with tho New Westminster Southern Railroad, and aeveral questions and motions iu connection with that company kept cropping up in (lie council. This being the esse, and not wishing to givo people an opportunity of talking, I decidod to resign my civic position, and Mr. Scoullar,' one of the aldermen, resigned with me. To tell tho truth I think that our connection with the railroad would, instead of harming matters, have done a good deal of good. Both Mr. Scoullar and myself arc large property holders in Westminster, and our interests ure the interosta of the whole of tho citisens. Howover, imagining that seme people might think difforently, I reckoned it best to resign and to do away with any talk at all on tho subject. Mr. Scoullar was actuated by tho same ideas as myaolf." â¦â»Â»*â* Alaska's Coal Depnuhs. For about 200 miles on the east shoro of Cook's Inlet, an immense conl belt exiats, which will furnish coal for the wholo of the ITnited States. Thero ere three veins, vnrying in thickness from 4 to 8 feet, The first vein is struck at a depth of about 30 feet from the surface, the covering being a blue day. The coal veins aro separated by a strata of fire-clay and sandstone, the fire*clay being about 4 or 5 feet in thickness and said to he of good quality. It has been used by the canneries in place of lire-brick, and found to answer the purpose and meet nil requirements. Tbe east side of Cook's Inlet is a low, flat country, the mountains being from 30 to 90 miles from the beach, the highest elevation beiug about 200 feet abovo sea level, thus making the ooal mines ensy of access. Thore is a tunnel 160 foet long on oho of the veins at Coal Harbor, whero the Russians have been mining for years and government vessels have also obtained fuel there. Several shiploads woro sont down from this place lost year, and five more will bo sent this year in order to make a thorough test of its quality. A company has been organized nt San Francisco by John Treadwell for the purpose of working thoso mines and work was commenced there this summer. A railroad of three miles will land the coal from tho mines to wharves whoro ships of any size can bo floated. Tho bay is veiy shallow, and it ia necessary to run ont a long distanco in order to obtain water to float large vessels. Coal Harbor is a huge nud perfectly safe bay for vessels of any size, being laud-locked on all sides and safe from storms from auy direction. The discovery of theso coal beds, if they turn out to bo hs good as they are now thought to be, is one of tho greatest discoveries yet mado in Alaska.-- Alttskd Free Press, CORRESPONDENCE.

We have not yet given the Times credit for acting on our advice and admitting, rather faintly, hut fully, that it was "only fooling" in tho tnattor of "an analogy." As wo stated when referring to that mon strous production, we could not believo that our cotemporary was in earnest, still wo are glad to have the confession abovo from its own lips. Our respect is in some measure restored for tho Times, Wo should havo been inexpressibly sad if it had avowed its seriousness in allowing itself to become the parent of such a freak, it is bad enough as it is even, and wo hope, for tho credit of B. C. journalism, that our cotemporary will not mnlto any more such hroaks, though it ho "only in fun." Tho Times somewhat spoils its confession by defiantly, nnd untruthfully, exclaiming: "The analogy, however absurd, as it is, is in every way as sound as The Colum- hian's. Wo simply, in tho matter of absurdity, wont one better than our cotemporary," Wo suppose that tho Times must be allowed in this matter the same luxury which the school-boy undergoing punishment indulges in, but no ono besides the delinquent will see it in tho same Ugh1:. chine. To what extent tho manufacturers of electric plant for motors, etc., contributed to raising the breeze against the carrying outof the death penalty by means of electricity, it is not easy to say, but it is known that they wero strongly opposed on tho grounds of tho interests of their business, to hnvo electrical mechanism used for such a purpose, holding that tho demonstration of its success as a sure killer would invest electrical apparatus generally with an attribute of danger that would prejudice the extension of the agent to tho various industrial and mechani cal purposes to whicli it is being daily and increasingly applied. What tho upshot of tho discussion, and the failure to carry out the original sentence, will load to in Now York, is difficult to say at present. The gaps which death has made have been filled up, and the new provincial cabinet now stands as follows: Hon. Jno. Kobson, premior and provincial secrotary * Hon. Theo. Davie, attorney-general; Hon. F. G. Vernon, chief commissioner of lands and workB; Hon. O. E. Pooley, presidont of tho council â Hon. J. II, Turner, finance minister. Tho two new members, it will he seen, nro Messrs. Davie and Pooloy, both well known legal luminaries in the province. Mr. Theo. Davie, tho now attorney general, is a brother of tho deceased premier and attorney-general, nnd has a provincial reputation as a clover and ablo lawyer. Ho represents Victoria city, whero ho is almost certain to be roturned when he goes back for re-eloction. Mr, Pooley, who represents Esquimalt, has been the speaker of thu assembly for some time, whoso du- ties he has discharged with dignity ami impartiality, and will-make a good president of tho council, a position without portfolio. Messrs. Vernon and Turner retain their former positions, it will bo observed, as chief commissioner of lands and works nnd finance minister respect' ively. Hon. John Robson, in addition to his duties as provincial secretary, minister of mines, etc., ussumes the premiership, without, of course, additional emolument, and becomes leader of the government. This is a very fitting appointment. Mr. llohson, as we mentioned incidentally tho other day, is the only remaining member of tho original cabinet of the present administration. Ho has been, perhaps, tho most activo spirit in the government throughout, and his experience, and generally acknowledged astuteness nnd ability âto say nothing of tho "respectability," "virtue," and "laurels" (vide Times of a recent date)âeminently qualify him for the position of premier of tho province and loader of the government. Westminster district has now tho "first man" in the house as its senior representative, and will, doubtless, not fail to appreciate the fact. Two provincial by-elections will be necessaryâono in Victoria, on account of Mr. Theo, Davio accepting a portfolio as attorney-general; tho other in Lillooet distrfct, to llll the vacancy caused by the death of the late premier and attorney-genera!. The New York legislature at its last session abolished hanging as a means of capital punishment, and substituted electricity as the "taking off" agent. A convicted murderer by the name of Keinmler was to have been tho first to suffer the lightning stroke of the law, and the execution was to have taken place on the 24th of June last, but such a discussion was raised and so many doubts expressed by electricians as to the possibility of killing a man instantly by electricity that the execution has been postponed from timo to time until it could be satisfactorily determined whether tho new law is practicable or not. An appeal bas been finally taken on the ground that the sentenoe is inhuman, and that death by electricity is not certain, though no less an authority than Thomas A. Edison testified that an eleotrio current of 100 volts wonld kill a man instantly, painlessly, and without disfigurement. It Would seem ns if hanging, revolting U it is, is regarded by the unscientific publio as a more safe, sure and merciful mode of legal life-taking than Is the swift, subtle, but far less understood, eleotrio fluid; for in New York stato a veritable clamor of protest was raised as the timo for the execution drow nonr against subjecting the unfortunate Kemmler to the test of the new killing ma- Tho presidont of the United States is not always "in clover" by any meati3, but is oftenest "in the soup" from ono cause or another. If not harassed by tho interminable ollico-seeker, thero is always some one to keep him busy shaking hands, and domestic lifo, with its restful and nccessury privacy, is woll nigh an impossibility during tho whole four years' incumbency of tho Whito House, But they aro sensibly proposing to remedy this matter, and savo President Harrison's few remaining gray hairs from falling out through sheor worry and exhaustion. An American exchange exposes the scheme ns follows : If the present plans are carried out President Harrison will bo far more comfortably situated than any of his predecessors have been in the White Houso. It is proposed to construct an office building on the White House ground;-, nt a distance from tho mansion, for tho president's use and connect it by cloisters or corridor with the Whito House, The idea of focusing all the presidential business within tho walls of the White House grow originally out of the conviction that, as this was a democratic republic, tho president ought not to have any privacy, but should bo continually whero the people could see him and get at hiin. The popular understanding was that the president only temporarily occupied a kind of people's caravansary and ought to keep open houso and expect tho multitude, from the boys of the slums nnd tho picturesque und rifled frontiersman, to pour through the mansion like water through u sieve The sooner this idea is eliminated from the popular mind tho hotter. A president who is expected to do as much as the incumbent of tho Whito House, ought to bo secluded from the public three- fourths of his time. If ho does this ho is neither a grand llama nor a fastidious aristocrat. Let the president have absolute exemption from interruption and he is sure to have his host judgment to support him in all his determinations. Tho Bepai-ato office idea is a good one, Out of that oflice let the president be as sooure from intrusion iu the Whito House as any private'gentleman is in his house.

Frederick Galloway to Mt elder nrother, Hon, Franc1*. Galloway. tiiusn Pacific Hotel, Chicago, April 13. 1SS3.âDear Frank: Itls ages since I heard Irom you, but I suppose every thing goes on as usual, and that you can find nothing to write about. Whon I wrote last I told you nbout my engagement to Misa Josie Fairfield, only daughter and holresB oi Jere- miuh Fairfield; and I think I gave you a fair description of your future sister-in-law. Old Jeremiah is behaving very handsomely, : nnd is going to plank down a fair share of hia dollars ln hard cash. I am ln excellent condition, and, to uso a favorite expression of my fiancee'B, "am just having a lovely timo." Evory body liefa makes an awful fuss over mo, and will insist on calling me "Lord Galloway.*' Titles hore are held in the highest veneration; but tho majority of the pi'upv I lmvoniet don't seem to know the illffioi onco between an honorable and a marques!) My futuro father-in-law took me ovor his pig-sticking establishment yestorday, unit each time he came to a group of butcliera at work ho would stop them for nn instant and say: "This Is Lord Galloway, my future Boh-in-law." i'licro is one curious mistake that every one has made nere, aud thai is that thoy havo all taken It for granted that. I nm tbe jklerson and heir to the title, although I liavo novor done or said any thing to cause them to boliove bo. As old Fairfield has already told all his friends that I shall bo Viscount Decatur, and consequently his daughter u Viscountess, I hardly daro now to un decoivo him In case ho should want to break oil tho match. My fair fiancee also has told nil her girl friends that on tho death of my father she will he Viscountess Decatur, so thnt I really see nothing for it but to leave them in ignorance of the true state of the caso until after the wedding, which has been fixed for this day week. Consequently when you reocivo this my proverbial Ill- luck will have deserted me and I shall be tho happy possessor of a millionaire bride. lam sincerely attached to Miss Fuirllcld; but, as I told you ln my last letter, my father-in-law-elect, as tbey say ovor here, is tho worst specimen of a low-bred Yankee tbat I have ever set eyes on. Your affectionate brother, Fred. From Hon. Frederick Galloway to Hon. Francis Galtoitay, New York, May 12, 1888,-Dcar Franki Tho affair went off splendidly and without a hitch. All tho Chicago papers teemed with account oftho brilliant ceremony and tho magnificent presents made to tho bride. Unfortunately, tboy all accepted It as a fact that 1 am the future Lord Decatur, and I have not yot had the courage to undecolve my bride. As we sail for England .next week I shall not say any thing about Ut' mistake, but will leave It until sho meets you and flndB out that you aro the heir and not myself. Ono papor In Chicago asserted that l should soon be a Duke, aa my father, tho Duke of Decatur, was In a vory precarious state of health. That was a good strotch of imagination for a Chicago journalist, Good-bye, old fellow. Your affecte. brother, .-.â ; FOTD. <â "-*â . from Mrs. Frederick (Mlomy to her Father, . Jtrtmtah Fairfield.

The fnet Is, this worthy in a caudicluto foravueuitt judgeship in the Court of Appeal, aud did not dare to run tho risk of losing old Fairfield's influence. Judges over hero aro elected by popular vote, ami old Fairfield, besides having tho inllueuce which is al ways attendant on great wealth, employs thousands of meninliispig-Rtlck- Ing establishments, and of courso nmi.rola their votes. Thus it ia that no judgo who aspires to a higher offico, oreven to re-election, over dares to say him nay. Moreover, I am told thut this old hog-butcher's political influence Is ao great that ho control.' half the Stnto Legislature and can get nny bills ho likes passed by it; and tbat if the judge bad vetliaed to annul my marriago with his daughter ho would have had a special net declaring it null and void put through tho Legislature. Although unquestionably it was very wrong to allow theso toadies and titlo- worahipei's tocontlnuo in thoir Bolf-ureuted delusion that I wub tho oldest son, yet I cor- tuinly had nothing to do with originating that belief. That was simply tho offspring of a combination of ignorance aud sycophancy.

Yot wo can uot doubt thnt a voice for singling Is comparatively raro, and that almost any ouo who chooses to do so can read so as to give pleasure. Perhaps thero aro two reasons for the general neglect of tills charming accomplishment. Iu tho first place, we aro far too apt to cultivate most carefully thut wliich is to plcnso in socioty, and to neglect those arts which can contributo to domestic happiness. Wo sing for our acquaintance.*, to excite tho admiration, or, it may be, the envy of poople who bco us but seldom, mut would not greatly caro if thoy nevor bow us again. But in being able to road well n good book or papor, wo aro only likely to glvo pleasure to an Invalid father or brother, or perhaps a group of younger brothers and sisters. But to increase thi' happiness of but ono of our bomo olrch ought to bo a source of far moro fcattsfao- tion to us than the applause of uny Btvangor whatever. To while away tho dreary hours of pain and sicknessâto charm a group of young listeners into forgetfulness of the rain or snow that is preventing thom from enjoying tholr usual sportsâthoao are objects wo can easily attain, aud from which wo shall derive such roal lmppinos** that thoy aro well worth n littlo effort. AN ACCOMPLISHED LIAR. How ft PftSte-tUKt-SolsioM Editor Fooled n Vauiii* Lndy. A youthful newspaper friend of. mine, writes tho Chicago Journal's sidewalk strollor, who is so fond of tho pastime ol "guying" his acquaintances thnt ho fro- quontly verges upon puro fabrication, delivered himself last night of n piece of audacity bo monstrous Mint tho recollection of it even now onchalns my attention and refuses to bo dismissed. A lively littlo party of fivo or six hod gathered ln tho parlor after dinner, and, aftor running n gamut of othor subjects, the conversation had turned upon newspapers. Among other things, it is my youthful frlond'sduty to clip from the "exchanges"ovory day a column of w.t* tlclsm of various length and grades of OX; collenco, and Boloct tho best of them for publication, under a Suitable hcadlino In hin papor noxt morning. It was with tt happy knowledge of this in view that ono of lhe compnny, a bright and attractive girl, interrogated tho youth In thiswise: "Mr. M-â," quoth sho, "how can you possibly find the Ideas to writo a wholo column of those funny paragraphs ovorydayl" Thoyoung man winked stealthily at mo and responded: "Oh, it's vory simple, I assure you. I just light my pipe, put my heels on tho desk and think hard for flvo minutes. Thon the Ideas come, andlgenorully manage to write tho whole column In about three quarters of nn hour." Tho young lady was duly Impressed, but Inquired: "Whatdoos tho little lino nt the bottomof each paragraph moan? It's always tho namo of somo other papor, isn't it?" Foronoinstnnt the young rascal was Btaggcrod, but recovered himself in- Rupax, Fcdqk ft Oft 'stoutly and answered with sublime of frontory: "Oh yoB, I just stick tho mime ol any papor I happen to think of ut the ond nf onch paragraph, so as to ndd it littlo diver slty to tlio column.

The news of tho arrival of tho scaling schooner Black Diamond nt Victoria Saturday evening, waa the sub- jeetof much comment ou ihu streets to-day, aud much joy was manifested at her escapo from tho Yankee pirate. It ia hoped that if nny other vessels are seized tho same coune will bo adopted and tho prizo crews given » holiday excursion to Victoria. The daring spirit that prompted the escape savours something of tho old daring of the British sailor, for had tho vessel been ro-eaptured tho cuiisu- qttonoes to tho oaptuin would have been vory serious. Tin- Itlnck IHiimntid. The seating schooner Black Dia- inon, Oapt, Owens, sailed into Vic- trivia harbor on Saturday evening, bringing tho entire prize crew from tlm V. S Btr. Rush, consisting of cue badly frightened man, with her. Tho Black Diamond did not obey orders and proceed to Sitka, but after spending a few days hunting llio sea otter and otherwise amusing tho crew, flailed for home, tho "prize crew" not enquiring about hia bearings for threo whole days, when it would have been too lute to change the vessel's course. The whole adventure seems to huvo been a trick of the subtle Yankeo to rid Behring Sea of the British sealers, aud if such was the intention it will probably succeed without giving rise lo serious international complications.

Cunningham to different parts of tho inst Ii ni caused such favorable comment, nud proved that fiuit from British Columbia can bu profitably and safely shipped na far ns Capo Breton, that tho Dominion Express Ci i. baa offered freo transportation of any aairples of fruit Mr. Cunningham wishes to send. This is veiy lib- oral indeed on tbo part of thu express company, and cannot but result profitably to it iu tho long run, as our enrly fruit is bound to find a market in Hamilton, Toronto, Kingston, Montreal and other cities, whore it can easily supplant the California product.

Bishop Sillitoe preached at Holy Trinity church yosterdny morning, taking for his text 1st Chronicles, 21st chapter 24th verse: "And King David suid to Oman, nay; butl will verily buy it for the full prico: for I will not talce thut which is thino for tho Lord, nor offer burnt offering without cost." Every religion whatsoever contains tho influences and principles of sacrifice; whether those religions nro tho onu true and good, or the religion of tlm lowest typo of humanity, tho self same principle of sacrifice is to bo found. In tho Christian church we havo it by direct Instruction from God. There must bo some natural instinct iu the human heart or it would not bo bo universal as it is. The natural instinct and impulse of the human heart to sacrifice, Wo can understand oasily enough why it is so, for the influence ia good. Everything we hnvo is from Him, and of His bounty, and therefore wo wish to communicate acme part to God lli.it He has given us. I think lho old practice of sacrifice in the old Jewish and Hebrew churches was tlio pre-sig- mil of Christ; nnd so it is today, whether our sacrifices bc little or big thoy ought all to bo in memory of our Lord's sacrifice on the cross. Sacrifice ought to be a reality, not a form; we learn that from Abraham; there must be iu the sacrifice something genuine, and everyone must bo of this naturo, God regulated this by u graded scale; sometimes it wus a lamb, a ram, a bullock. After the birth uf Christ some change in tho sacrifice waa necessary, but why ahould we come up to ono point and cast off the whole. Some chango wns necessary, but tho wholo principle nf sacrifice was not to be taken away. Tho spiritual side of sacrifice was as well put forward in early days as now, and wo mint not conclude thnt because of certain changes at our Lord's coming that all was put aside. The scripturo tells us to give alms and not turn from tho poor. Tho widow gavo hor mito; it was not much, but it was all sho had. Sho had only cast two mites into the treasury, but Christ said sho had given moro than all tho rest put together. Sacrifice in our consideration ia thia: we aro not simply to give without consideration, but wo ure to consider woll whether wo should givo a h-inb, ram or bullock. When tho plat ii goes round in church people think this is tho right timo to give, and often give liberally, but there nre other times to givo also, 1 consider this a matter of religion; tho circumstances of whut wo oiler aro well known to Almighty God, and wo ore no doubt recorded at once. Ab our wealth nnd prosperity increases thero ought to bo a chango iu our reckoning with Almighty God. It is not what i* given iu church that amounts to unything, but oiiiside whero there at least half a hundred good objects on whicli to mako the sacrifice. I am not complaining of lho offertory iu this church, but am just speaking for the good of your own soul-i, It is well to bear iu mind '-whatsoever u man sows so shall ho reap." The principlo of offering ia ac- coptablo and I would have you ask yourselves what i3 beat to give. That proportion cannot bo arrived at without close calculation, but it is not to bc n matter of cold blooded calculation, it muat come from a freo heart and we must ull endeavor that our offorings- whethor thoy bo great or small, nro a sncriflco to God. tho Man." Uo will bear looking at, and, although many, becauso they cannot grasp tho idea of tho magnitude of His work, and havo led Him forth to ridicule, they cannot surpass Him in anything thoy can produce, and in spile of themselves, when holding Him up to derisiun, they are compelled to crown Him whom they would scourge. The Pilates have continued down to this day, and although they may rofuso to worship Him, yot He commands their admiration. Man fails, whon with the genius God haa endowed him with, ho tries to belittle hia benefactor, for the infinite superiority oi the Lord Jesus Christ will assert itsolf tho more humanity takes upon itaelf, in its weakness, the task of comparison, much more when they, in execration try to insult by deriding Him. The crowd have thoir mad surge of passion arrested for u momont, when Pilato, after declaring that ho found no fault in Him, and as though he would have thom consider again what they demanded, and in thoir contemplation see His innocence, ho aays, "Behold the Man." But in their mad desire for His sacrifice they did uot consider that the Jesus before thom had fed thom many a timo, had healed their sick, raised their doad, and taught words of peace and consolation. Ho who had been sympathetic in all their troubles is east aside in their preference for Barrnbas. What a diobolieal ago! It seemed as though Ho camo just at the time when humanity had reached its lowest depths of degradation. Contemplate tho scetio: Caiphas, in metre and golden vestmeiitj, Judas tho' traitor, tho executioner, tho two malefactors who had to dio with Him, and the company of Roman soldiers; but us you --behold tho Man" you seo thu amazing effect ub against them all. Ho will bear this cross, soon it will carry Him, and from it will dopait tho Spirit of Him who will booh shake Bccioty and tho world and triumph over His imperial masters, creating new nations, now laws, and a now religion. Pilate, who perforce for the will of tho mob condemns Him, just appears upon tho page of history, and is forgotten; but the name of Jesus shall livo for over. He whose constant word was "Love ono another," stands most prominently out, and although tho rage of hell ia there surrounding Hiin, that satisfying, calm, and infinite countenance, penetrates ns it were into the futuro down through the ages, eeoing the effect of thia hour. The darkness is preparing to cover tho doomed city Ho sees boforo Him, tho city that in his sympathy He had wept for, nnd, although he tenderly beholds that which shall bu torn asunder and annihilated, yet Ho does not for one moment-crouch or cringe, but, knowing Ho must Buffer to redeem tho world, He doea so without murmuring, with :i lovo noble and matchless, until you accord Him as tho holiest among' the mighty and the mightiest among the holy. Horo the speaker pictured tho crucifixion, and tho full of Jerusalem, commenting on tho absence of wrath, ns dying Ho spoke lovo, pity nnd forgiveness, never forgetting that scripture was being fulfilled and that Ho was completing the work His Father had selected Hiin to do. In conclusion ho suid : My friends, wo are horo brought face to fncu with tho divine Saviour; then "Behold the man that taketh away tho sin of tho world." Loan on the arm of this mighty Saviour, who is God as well as man, and may you in your faith and trust so loan upon Him aud confide in Him thnt you mny in tho eternal rolation -'Behold the King in His beauty. Mi.TiiiiiiisT cut*neu, At tho Methodist church last ovening Rev. Mr. Finhor, who is visiting tho city, discoursed on thu litttcr part of tho Oth verso 10th chap, of John-- "And Pilnto suith unto them, behold the mau." The following is a oum- iiiui/ of his remarks: Thore wus a moment of suspense, a moment of pause iu the trials of Jesus before Pilate, and it waa that moment in which Pilate led tho victim forth to tho people, and, almost instinctively, while beholding divinity lighting up thu very surroundings, fastened as it were upon tho accused nud singling him out, said, "Behold tho man." Singular ns the expression of thia Roman judgo is thought to be, it waa absolutely forced from him in that transformation moment, when, ns it wore with infinite satisfaction, Divine royalty was as- setting itsolf in tho calm submission to tho ond imposed, and nf which he had full knowlodgo tiom thu day he began hia earthly career, iu tho going, voluntarily consenting, down to death. First, in contemplation of the scene, wo assert thnt in Jesus Christ is tho highest form of honor, and that oven the higher art is impossible outside of Christianity, To Christ is givon the host in music, the bent in poetry nud in painting. Handel's "Messiah" will Hvo for ovor, and there aro paintors who in their ennseemtod efforts preach tho ['impel of the Son of God on canvas, and thu higher arts iu multiform productions point to and suy "Behold U, â¬* Provincial Exposition Subscription Fund.
