In that tropical clime this was quite a task, yet they could conceive of no w: to improve upon ic.” First convincing the king | that he had a much better pian, Mcintyre was granted the necessary assistance, and sue- ceeded in constructing a sort of bamboo pipe line from the springs to the settlement. so that the natives thereafter got their drinking water without any labor whatever. It was a great scientific triumph, to their notion. When Mr. McIntyr> came back to Pitts he found it so greatly changed that the ol: familiar city was new to him. Finally, how. ever, by diligent inquiry, he located his brother, a liquor dealer, in ‘the eastern part of the city.

The idea which con- nects the commission of certain acts with the incurring of certain consequences, not arising by any law of material cause and effect, is one of the heathen conceptions which has survived ide by side with Christian beliefs.

An English Editor Deducts an Irish Moral From President Harrison’s Address. From the Pall Mall Gazette. President Harrison's address contains passages which we welcome as full of sound sense and political sagacity. The portions of the address to which we wish more particularly to refer are those in which the President lays down very ex- cellent doctrine concerning the duty of the state to enforce the law equally on all classes of citi- zens, The reason why the Americans reverence law and enforce it without scruple is because the law represents the matured conviction of the whole community as to what is right. But when, as in the case of slavery, the laws of the state conflicted with right and justice, then the very life and salvation of the American republic was found in a struggle against the law. higher law is the only real law binding upon the con- sciences of men. If the law written in law books nds with the higher law, which is the law of oe that =e : nation soe But if, as constant ns, the progress ot events renders the written law an allachronisma and an injustice, then, unless a nation can read- just its written laws to the higher law, that nation dies. The work of readjustment is the history of civilization. When it is retarded, when the written law has become petrified, or when the natural forces which should transform it are artificially paralyzed, then there is decay and disease srerinan formar! in a deep hatred of law as such, and c inating sooner or later in te outbursts of despair, of crime, or of revolution.
