Carter-Cotton; Happy and Memorable Function "Fill the bright goblet, spread tbo fes live board, Summon tbo gay, the noble, and l,ic fair; ' Through this loud hall, in joyous con cert poured, Let mirth and music sound tbe dirge of care. Thus runs Iho old Honian exhortation according to Macaulay, ami, though it Is s considerable stride from IjiI.c Begiilus to I.yuu Valley, the same four linos might, nevertheless, havo boon strung over the portals of tho new district ball two nights agu. "Bright fobluts" wero assuredly filled with discreet frequency and nothing more luscious in the way of "festive boards" could he reasonably imagined than that upun which a small army uf ladies had exercised their prowess for Wednesday night's occasion. As fnr tho "gay, the noble, and Ihe fair," each was represented in goodly numbers, outhusiasls coming from far and wide to Inspect' the new hall and congratulate the municipal authorities. If a building could blush, the district council's cdiflco would have been ■tuTused continuously on Wednesday night, fur a laudatory comment was on every lip. Mayur McNeish strode frum room to room strewing enconiums as he went. Other City ofllciais roamed bitbe rand tbithcr from the basement upwards sniffing the newness of it all snd envying tho cleanliness thereof. Bee,i' McNaught, almost forgetting to look over tbe top of his eyeglasses, preceded Ihem as uflieial guide, I'uuir- cillur Allan following in his wake minus tbe committee -room fruwn, and wearing in its place a .wide smile uf well-nine. The hall has been very aitutcly 'planned; every a/earn . Jtfjuglbii own pi •pacious in accordance willi" ln*Xi) Viiafid.,tiu quiremciits and at the same time uot a vestige of space wasted. No doubt in time tho interior of the place will take upon itself a fittingly sevore ap p.'uriniee. At present it is altogether too clean and scrupulously tidy to •uggcit hard work. Also on Wedncs- -day uigbt it was enveloped in ciruival hangings, flags, largo and small, lowers, real aud artificial, and paper suspensions in many colours caused one tu espoct an encouuter witb Santa 4Ileus or nunc other festival deity at •very turning. Above the main entrance lu the brilliantly lighted building was Ihe word "Wcleome" decoralively spread out and cheerily obvious from the carline. Even within the "Solemn" council tgmh.fi tin same aiveu letters hung conspicuously--nol on red tape. That would have been too insinuating. Time having been allowed fur exploration purposes, the company was gradually wafted intn this hainlsunie apartment, where the Kecve eventually took the chair, surrounded by a .luster of rity and district officials. In his opening- remarks he made humorous allusions to the district council of tin' past, pointing out to those who did not know it, tbat their municipal ball waa now tbe city hall. Who knew but that the ball tbey were opening that nigbl might also become the city hall some dsy, snd so until nobody would know where it wss going to end, It wai now twenty years ago since tbe municipality came into existence, and for the last Ave or six yean municipal conditions had advanced by leaps and bounds, They bsd now over 7,000 In habitants on the north shore, and rein- forcimenti wire coming in it the rate of 800 sad tOO every month. At tbii juncture tbe Beeve produced an inter eating intiquity in tie ihape of I copy at tbi ''Express'' dgted Friday, May Slit, 1007. Be rssd aloud a report conlsined therein describing iu metaphorical terms tbo interment of thu municipal cuuncil uf Ihut time. It wus tbeir last mealing, or as the "Kxprcss" man termed it, their "dying wriggle" ami further reference waa made to tbe " heart breaking sobs" which burst from the councillors during the session, all of whom went inwardly supports'! by one thought—that of one day occupying the mayoral chair ami being addressed as "his worship." The Kecve called attention to the pessimistic attitude which was adopted toward the council in 180?, ami pro- ceeded In enijihasiso lbc very different conditions which now prevail. At any rate, tbey preacnted a pretty lively corpse. Continuing rcmisiscently, tbe Kecve mentioned that tho first committee that he was appointed on was une whose duly was tu urge upon the government at Victoria the necessity of building the Second Narrows bridge. He now believed that it only required united exertion lo render the day not far distant when they would have tbat bridge, and also railway eoinmunicatiun witb the northern interior, the terminus of which railway would be North Vancouver. With these developments bo prophesied that in twenty.live years the norlh shore would be a mighty good secoud to the great city of Vancouver. Every possible effort should be made tu bave these things'cuneumit- ed. The Kecve then made almost I .iil-iii reference to the little ronm un the Ksplanade which lind, all things considered, served their purpose vory well. They bad, however, conceived the idea of hiving a ball for purposes other tban tbat of writing and sending out notices, and he wondered whether they had been wise in so doing. For art, ho would have liked tu iin- ..heme still further and have built something that would be suitable tu the requirements of twenty live years house. Tbo local ion might then have become the centre of Norlh Vancouver, At this point in the Reeve's speech the book containing the district as ISSOUBl for the yesr 1006 fur the municipality was exhibited,—a somewhat anaemic looking volume in comparison with the three Ionics containing tho present assessment, which, by means of a herculean effort were pallid on high for inspection by two municipal A poll un Kecve Mc.Nuughl tli.ui colled upon tbo Hon. !•'.

That ui-ntl.-iiii.il, when inviting Inin tu the opening of the new hill, did not mention the mailer of his being expected lo dedicate it, but merely asked him tu come in a casual sort of wuy. Therefore ho was considerably surprised to tind himself facing such a "galaxy of youth anil beauty," and if bo should prove unable to say much they must not blame him, but the Keovc, and bis insinuating way. Proceeding, Mr. Carter Cotton declared that nothing gave bim greater pleasure than to noto tbe marks of progrosi on the nortb shore, the development of which during tho list twenty years bad been almost incredible.

Hutchinson and a good pro-gramme was rendered, after which refreshments were served. thus far taken. The matter was referred to the clerk with instructions to report. A letter from Mr. I). W.

Burns and Walkem wrote ro Cooke vs. North Vancouver, stating lhat Ihey had received au offer frum thu plaintiff's suliciturs agreeing to withdraw tho suit, ou payment uf $100 by the municipality. The llrm advised tho council to.close with this oiler, which they accordingly decided to do.

Progress, us everyone knows, has been manipulating her mug- ir wand iu the municipality of North Vaneouver. As a result of llicir new environments, the district councillors at lust night's tussling irs-iiii-il a precedent iu Ihe shape of inimuciilalc behaviour, cash member rising formally from his sent to uddrcss Ibe reeve who presided at a lilting altitude on his own particular dias. Things are now as Ihey should be, ami mure good business is likely tn lie dune thun hitherto when thu councillors rubbed shoulders with olio another and were too sanliu- ed to bo friendly. The reeve, in a brief introductory speech, made reference tu this particular drawback in the past. Ho also, men in,in .1 that the new hall wus a copy of the House of Parliament al Ottawa, ami exhurled his colleagues lo imitate the occupants uf thai bouse in the transaction of business. The public, be said, were free ut ull times to listen lo the debates but must remain silent, Those inside Ihe rails would do till the talk ing. He hoped this was the beginning uf greater things for North Vuncouver and trusled Ibat in time tu como that new hall would be supplanted by a still liner .in stone building of niugiiilicent proportions in keeping with the in i lease uf the ditlrict. Voluminous correspondence of more ur less meagre Importance was thou considered. There came a letter from the Hon. F. Carter-t lotion, intimating that he bad been again to Victoria to sec what was the cause of lbc continued delay in commencing work on the Moody villi- road. He found that the minister uf works wus absent from Vie toria, but the premier, whom he Iheii called upon, stated that Mr. Taylor bad told him lo give orders at unco fur the resumption of work ou the sai<l road, A letter, duly referred to committee for consideration, was read from the Seymour Lumber Company asking fur ii $2,000 which Ibe council promised tbem lielori' passing the bylaws for (100,000 on Saturday Isit. I l-e minutes of the recent meeting of the Joint Harbor Improvement commit tee were ordered to be died. The Wi-.-iniins.ter Automobile Alio eiation wrote asking that one of the ouueil be appointed to represent the uiiinicipalily at the first convention of the B. C.

If the council was prepared lo lake immediate steps lo obtain these water rights Mr. Townsley was satisfied not only.to withdraw his application but to assist Ihem in other ways, giving them Ibe use of flic Heps be had The B. c.

Aa the parlies needing light were anxious to have It soon, Ibo company would be obliged if the council would direct Ihut they be removed. A motion was received and carried that the council wuuld help the company as much as possible in the mul ler. Hutchinson, McMillan and company submitted some properly for purk pur pules. This lay ou block 4 in resub- division of lots 1, 2, 3 and 4, district lot 632. The price of the property was (11,400, ami it was Situated half way between the Seymour river ami the north arm in close proximity lu Keith rood. Tbe offer was passed on to the school trustees for consideration. Councillor Bridgmuii said that by uu oversight at the opening of the hull tbey bail omitted to thank the ladies for their yeoman service. 'He moved therefore, that the clerk shoubl convoy Iheir thanks lo Mrs. T. A. Allan nnd other ladies whu had given their assistance. The motion was unanimous ly carried, Coun, Bridgman moved a second re s-iilutii.il of thanks to tho cily uf Nurth Vancouver and tbe B. C.

The following is Sir Edmund Walker's view of British Columbian prospects, as delivered iu his presidential address st the annual meeting of the Canadian Bank of Commerce: "Immigration, at first slower in the prslrie provinces, is now stesdily increasing, and it looks as if the unusual resources of this extensive part of Canada would gradually become known to the rest of the world. Capitol is Bowing to British Columbia in a con iiiiually increasing volume, especially from Oreat Britain. Here, ss else where iu Canada there are sources of information by the use of which the in M.i'ii may be guarded from those. THE.EXPRE88, NORTH^wtom % C - mmwwwwwmmummBmi**)^^ Who, bavihg'something tp sell by il# stion or otherwise, are uot regardful of the truth jn their effort* to hs m- cessful, In this province, with its extensive undeveloped areas pf oosl, iron, copper, silver, etc., its remarkable timber, snd still more remarkable fisheries, its rich valleys capable of bountiful production of fruits, vegetables and ptber farm produce, as well as of live stock, it is ppt easy to guess st either the limits to its eventful greatness or at the ruto ef its-progress ro tlvely to its extended area. As elsewhere, farm lands continue to advance in price, so do fruit lands, hut the railway development in the northern part of the province and iu other districts will give tbe settler without capital bis pathway to success. As regards lumber tbe cost is increasing and greater stability in prices seem essential. Tbe immense outlook for this very importa.it industry is good, apart trom tbo prospect of more dumping frum United States manufacturers. In mining, conditions ss a whole have not been so hopeful for many years." WHY AMERICANISM OUR PIOTUBB SHOWS? An authority on moving picture shows in Canada considers that tbese entertainments are becoming or have become too Americanized and constitute a real danger to tbe Empire. "Tbe dearth of British films in Canada is all the more extraordinary" be says "iu view of the many excellent sub jects produced by the British mbnufas- tarer, , Ons Of the most interesting letters which I publish this week is tbat from Menmer No. 7.17 st Victoria B. 0. Wbat could bs mors significant tban the following! "I bavs fod>r children," writes my correspondent, "all pf a more or less impressiomble age, gpAj It is difficult to prevent tbem from giving tbs I'nited States first place in tbsir m>nds When American prowess is being so constantly forced on their observation, while everything British is not only given a bsck seat but often openly derided." There is, of course, no desire on my pari, to belittle the patriotic achievements of American cltlsens nor to question the deeds of vslor portrayed on the thousonds of American films displayed daily throughout the Dominion of Canada. In common witb my readers I feel that as British citisens we are justified in requesting tbs proprietors of moving-picture halls in Canada to draw on the vast resources of our Empire for subject-matter. In Australia, South Africa, and elsewhere films of British origin sre extremely popular. Why not in Canada!"

C. mum ENCONIUM TO EABL OBEY Concerning Ihe oi-Oovcrnor General tbe Toronto Mail speaks thus: Earl Grey served his Sovereign well in Canada He did bis part to promote harmony among the elements of our population. Hia lead in the project for celebrating the tercentenary of the founding of Quebec and the setting apart of the battlefields tbere; his influence for the strengthening of the Imperial sentiment, his part in adding lo tho agreeablcncsa of the intercourse between Canada and the Unite! States —are some of tbo services for whicii he deserves to be long remembered. And what he did was done in so hearty and unaffected a manner, in a manner so free from official pomp, as perhaps- to lose some of its significance for tbo observers of tho dsy. Wc believe that Earl Grey's administration will grow in the appreciation of the people as tbe time passes.

Octoyer 87, 1811 PBOQBEBB OF THE NOBTH BHOBE Yet another finger board, indicating tbe pathway of steady progress along which the development of tbe Nortb Shore proceeds, is found in tbe formal opening and dedication of the newly completed District municipal hall, at l.vsiii Valley, Tuesday evening. The building Itself is an excellent structure, situated in a very promineut and central location, and presenting an attractive architectural appearance, all of whicii combine to render it one of the outstanding features of this delightful valley. The interior arrangement is admirably desigued to provide every convenience for the transaction of municipal business in all depart ments, in view of both present needs and future development. The structure reflects credit upou the enterprise of the District Council ami is worthy the large and wealthy municipality to which it belongs. The removal of the district offices from the small building previously oc I'Upied on the FjSplauade to the moilern and spacious structure in which tbey are now domiciled is atrougly suggestive'of the rapid expansion iu all respects which is certain to take place on the North Shore, duriug the years lying in the immediate future. The tremendous increase in municipal bind- . ness wus strikingly illustrated on Tuesday evening when tbe single smull canvass covered'Volume contaiuiii|i the assessment roll of a lew years agu war •fnibited along side of the several very large leather-backed record books which contain Ibe roll lor 1818, while lo these must lie added Ilie records of the city for the approaching year, the assessment roll pf whicii was likewise included in the small book, lirst mentioned, The lines which will be followed by those municipal developments which premise to transpire with a short period are indicated by the movement wbleh is already well advanced, for constituting another .Ustrid municipality out of that' portion of the present district lying west of Capilano river. In Ihe more distant future, but possibly not so far removed us some might be inclined lo ciui.-ljidc Ihere already looms upon Ilie horizon, tin- question of the enlargement of the area of the city, the future bs.uiularics ut present suggested . being, l apilano river ou the west, l.ynn creek ou the east and Ihe mountain! on tlie north. Important as these developments will be in their order of occurrence, they serve only as a slight Indication of the progress of the growth of population, the springing up of additional centres ami the pucnomenul development of public business which is destine.I lo be characteristic of Ihe Nortli rihore. .lust what proportions this general development will ultimately i..'si.iiie. it is not easy lo predict, but iu the min.I of the average citizen of the North shore, il does nol stop short iu its ultimate attainments of the occupancy of the entire aslaplable area from Hukc Wound ou the west to North Arm ou tlie east, and from ilurrar.l Inlet ou Ihe south, lo the fool of the mouiiluin.. an.I well up the mm.Minn fide.- ou the north, by u continuous and aoli.ih built cily, pulsating with all (lie life ami \igor ol a great modern commercial and industrial centre, and onjoyiug likewise all the advantages and prosperity which belong of iu alii'iiahlc right to one of the Lading seaports of the world. The working out of a vision so prodlgoui as the above, is_not a mailer of a moment, it may require the larger part of a century but the loyal denizen of the North lijliore is seriously convinced that the only deblilealdc feature of the whole n alii i is that of the length of lime which will be required for its accomplishment. THE HISTOBY OF BBITIBH COLUMBIA it is gratifying to know that under the guidance of tbe provincial government "a determined effort ii being Made to collect fromall sources, menu acrlpt letters, " diariea, journals, and jftttHoranda, throwing light upon tbe *rjy history of British Columbia, in order that such documents may be collated, arranged and preserved," and further that "(be work will be syste matically carried on from year to year, and it is hoped tbat it will result in tbe bringing together of much interest ing ami valuable material." For the purpose of prosecuting this highly important matter a Provincial Archivist has been appoiuted whose duty it is to devote hia time, energy and ingenuity entirely to the work. Tbe report of this official for the six months ending Dee. Illst, 11)10, is just to ban.) ami is replete with thoughtful conclusions and timely suggestions. After dwelling upon the importance of the undertaking which his depart ment has iu hand, the report proceeds to divide the history of British Columbia into Ihe following periods: 1. The period of apocryphal voyagos and explorations, 1578 to 1774, to which belong the doubtful relations of Juan de I' Malslou- ado, de Foutc, uml others, respecting the Strait of Anian, as the North-west l'ussage was called of old: •J. The period of discovery, exploration, and the fur trade, 1774 to islet Tl. The Colonial period, which commences! with the founding of the Colony of Vancouver l.-land in 1841) and onded in 1871, when the united Colonies of Vancou. ver Isiuiul and British Columbia entered the Dominion of I'anuda us a Province: 4. The Moslem period, which may be said lo have commenced iu the year 1871 with the establishment of the Province of British Columbia. The report then proceeds to discuss the several sources from which tli necessary documents uml information nms be procured, dividing them into "official" such as government records, records of trailing, companies, etc, and "unofficial" such as private manuscripts, diurie:., reminiscences, etc lu view of ull Ihe lusts adduced, the renorts makes Ihe following recommen- slatious: 1. That copies ot ull unpublished letters, despatches, uml reports, relating lo Vancouver Island and British Columbia, particularly with reference lo (lie historii controversies of the "Noolku Affair" ami the Oregon Boon dary Question, should be procured from the Colonial Office, the I'ublie Records Office,'and the Admiralty: 2. That an especial effort should be made to obtain from the Archives of the Hudson's Bay 1 om|iiin> copies of all records relating to the exploits of the North-west Fur trailing Company of Montreal to Ihe wcsl of the Kocky Mountains (the two companies were amalgamated in 18.il under Ihe name of Hie older concern), and Ihe work of tbe Adventurers of England iu the Oregon Territory, New Cole , donia, the Colony of Vaueouver Island, Alaska and California— in fad, to all Iheir operations wesl of the Bocklea: '■'.. That transcripts of the Spanish and Blissful documents relating ' lo this coast should be obtained from the Archives of the Indies al Seville and the Archives of st. I'ctersburg respectively! ' 4. That the Dominion and Provincial • Archives Departments should respectfully be ankcd lo assist the .'Dice: • ■") That a determined effort Mm .I.i be, mude, before it is too late, to guther the reminiscences of Ihe pioneer.-, anil that the same should be carefully edited nnd collated: . t. That all likely plaics in the Fro vince or elsewhere should be carefully searched for letters diaries and manuscripla bearing upon auy period or phase of our hietoryi 7. That an earnest effort shonl'i be made lo establish cordial relations with the Academy of Pacific CcOll History of the 1,'nj versity of California, the Ore gon Historical Society, the Cni versity of Washington, the Washington* Slate Historical Society, and all olher learned societies and governmental departments interested, in tbe early historyof*h?fwifl0 Northwest, with a view tn the promotion of research and. the extonsion tt the ck-operative principle: 8. That »|1 recerds relating tp Colonial days (1848 to 1871)' on ' any subject whatsoever, now .filed in any of the Provincial Public Departments, ehould be placed far safe beeping and arrangement in charge ef the Archivist: 0. That tbe aid of the Provincial Press be solicited with a view to tbe expeditious gathering together of manuscripts and reminiscences. . Referring to the probable cost of tbe manuscripts referred tn in tbe last .luu:..' of the above recommendations tbe report observea: It would be well to'point put in this connection that tbe collecting of manuscripts must of necessity involve a large outlay. A large sum may be expended upon one item. Manuscripts are bound to cost more than books. Tbere can be but one original manuscript, wherein, there may be, and generally are, many copies of tbe original eiiitiou of a book. A book may become rare and valu able, and a manuscript may become, comparatively speaking, priceless. Hence the expense. There is a wonderful fund of infor maiion and a vast wealth of unique experience treasured up in the re miniscenees of tbe pioneers in' the arious sections of this province, ami it is earnestly to bo hoped that through the persistent efforts of the Provincial Archivist, this will be elieitod and placed on record in permanent form, before it is lost forever. The report contains a guodly list of those who have already submitted manuscripts or reminiscences and it is by all means desirable that a general response be received to the appeal that is now mado iu this respect. . , .'

Whon in 1888 be purchased the Moodyville ferry, from which developed the Upton Steamship Company, tbey ran tho Senator and the Leonora between Mooilyvjllo ami Van- coutfcr, and bo remembered that when thoy were asked to call at North Vancouver, the people of Moodyvllle complained of tbe delay occasioned by having to make a call at such a very insignificant place, He believed now that the next ten yours would see n great advancement jn North Vancouver. He hoped that next year a commencement would be made on tbe Second Narrows briilge, aud be was confident that with tbe nest eighteen months they wuulil, on the nurth shore, sec the beginning of the railway to Fort Qeorge and the Peace River District. People were now beginning to realize what Hurrard Inlet was to Cnnu.lu. When the Panama Canal was opened its importance to North Vancouvor would be great. If their city did not share in the general prosperity from the Panama Canal it would le due to the lack of enterprise of its citizens. Vancouver ami North Vancouver must stand together in their bid for trade, and tho development of traffic. There was no doubt, said Mr. Carter-Cotton, that they would see a very large, population within a few years on tbe north shore, and nothing was wanted but enterprise of wbieh there was an uliuudanee ou this sisle of the Inlet. He did not seo that there was anything that should beep bach North Vancouver from holding a prouil position in the future. As the member fnr the district there wss nothing that lie would not be pleased lo du in their interests. The opening uf the munk-ipsl hall, iiiiitiiiiii'il the spcuker, marked another milestone in the progress of North Vuniouvcr. They had in their Reeve one of the most persistent and insistent men be hud ever met. When he went to Victoria un district mutters, he hung around the government offices till the officials were ulmosl afraid tu apprum-li or leave the premises.' Coupling the Reeve's name with that of Muyur McNeish, Mr. Carter-Cotton said that with such men at tbe head uf things it wus Impossible to place the limit un what they wuuld iusiat uu being carried out iu North Vuncoucr's interests. He bud very much pleasure in dedicating that splendid builsliug tu the use uiul nilvunlagc of the people uf the district. Mayor McNeish made a broozy speech, 1-oiigrutuliiting the district heartily on their magnificent building. In the very noar future he believed it was the city's intention to extend their limit.■!,.■.ml when he saw tbat good ond' beautiful bnilding b<t could not help reflecting on the uso that the city could make Of it. Seriously he hoped that before long the city would havo a much more pretentious building than the present city hall. He endorsed, Mr. Carter-Cotton's remarks about the railways. He" reminded them that the first reeve of the district, Mr. J. C. Keith, was tbo first man to start railway construction north of Burrard Inlet. Ex-Major May, who was tlio first roove after incorporation, spoke in extremely appreciative terms of the new hall,' Drifting into reminiscences he mentioned that ho became u property owner on the north shore in 1887 and was over here looking at land in 18811. He entered the council eighteen years ago ami for' seventeen years' was interested actively in North Vancouver's affairs. He wished the council every pusible success in tbeir new head- i|uartcrs. wi" Mr. A. lii. Kealy also dipped into tbe past, and touched upon the difficulties of local administration in.those early days. Now they bad a municipality of 75,000 acres and people were clamouring on all sides for sidewalks and other improvements. There had been sume talk of dividing the municipality, and he cunsidereii it more than possible that uow was the right time fur such u division. He most heartily congratulated the district ou its extremely fine building. ilr. Alexander Philip said thul many a time since 11107 he hail wished the district had had such accommodation us was now provided. He wus strongly tempted intu u retainisccnt muud, but the hour wss late. He recalled, however, that one of the earliest duties he ha.l to perform in un official capacity was tu inquire intu the schoul accommodation fur children. The only schoul then on the north shore was the Moudyville school. Returning to reason uf their assembly, Mr. Philip said that he believed that good wouhl result frum the course which the couucil had adopted in erecting thut hull. He hoped that one day the whole uf the nurlh shun' wuubl be galheresl up intu ono great centre uml would represent une'great city with a commercial influence second to none. Let tbem co-operate one with the other and see that"their interests were 'carefully developed. The gathering then adjourned up. stairs or downstairs according to choice. Those who adopted tbo former cpurtio fount'u lumber pf tables laden Witb good things, and proceeded to lessen the load. In tbe meantime music was efficiently supplied by the Lynn Valley orchestra. During the evening fbe Countess von Ardenborg gave a rendering of "Asthore" and wae enthusiastically recalled, while a humorous ditty, sprinkled witb patter, was sung with success by . Celebrations were kept up until a late hour, music anil dancing bringing to a close a function which should bo entered in red ink into tho secular annals of the municipality.

VlklM Ot DBWVBBAWOB Jt This is a past-exilic psalm of un- J own authorship, Jt .mm written for i times, It voie.nl the uqotlous and feelings of. tlie popular heart as the noblest poetry always .Iocs. It Is ilif- firult for us to appreciate the feebleness and .(ejection o( the remnant of Tarsal that returned from tlie captivity. Tbey dwelt for years among the rains nf former greatness, always a more dispiriting situation than a new settlement in a virgin wilderness. The temple at length completed, was bo mean as uompared with .Solomon's that . those who had seen the latter burst into'tears at the dedication of the former, The nation was such a pitiful small folk that Ihey were a hy-word and hissing of their neighbors. They were greatly dejeetesl. They seemed to be settling down to gloom and despair. A revival of hope auy joy was tbeir greatest neesl. It wouhl be ,1m,,nli to conceive of anything better suited to accomplish this niilile end than this no- hie lyric. He who said, "Let me write the songs of o nation and you may write their laws," hud u just estimate of the influence of national sung upon national chararter. I'n.ler this elevatV oil poetical strain there is a lugioul substruction furnishing a Arm foundation for hope of coming prosperity. The argument is this: The present situation of the Lord's people, dispiriting as it is in some respects is in point of fact an evi.lenee of the divine favor. The iiiiiii, iilun emancipation from Hahylonian captivity thu replanting of the nation iu Caiman, is in itself a pledge of tbe divine forgiveuess. Tbe people are restored not merely to tbeir land but to their Ood as well. There Is a sudden ehuuge of key. The psalmist recognlTes that the chastening wrath of Ood lias not altogetber ceased. There* is depreeation, confession, and supplication. Tbeu it is a return to the high grace notes of joy and triumph. It is doubtful if Hebrew • poetry ever rea'elied p higher stwln than in tbis glowing picture of Jehovah's visit to bis peoplo. Ke comes in triumph. Righteousness is His out-rider. Mercy, Troth, and Peace, are His attendants, Bleb largesses shall be strewn on land and people, ( fbe feaober's l-wtem The miracle of return from captivity was like a dream, It could scarcely be credited for its wonder, It filled the heart nf the oboSen witb joy and tbe heathen Who looked nn with astonishment. , .

"Jacob" was one of the pet names with which the Jews delighted to style themselves, . . .The word "Se|ah" occura seventy-one times in the Psalms.

Its utterance In the English reading of tlie Psalms is preposterous. . . The Israelites were no "saints" but the term doea indicate c.nl':. ideal and wish concerning Ilis people.
