The Eagle's Dazzling Flight.
That Americans, as a nation, are given to ‘‘*buncombe” and ‘‘blow” is a* fact that has long been known and admitted. It is one of the perguisites of ‘the land of liberty,” and on special occasions, such as Washing- ton’s birthday, the anniversary of Bunker Hill, and 4th July, is indulged in ad libitum et nauseam. he latest which has come under our observation is Senator John A. Logan’s tribute to the fame of General Grant on Memorial Day last. As a specimen of spread-eagleism rampant we commend the following to our rétders.
“When Cvsar, after conquering the Syrian king, Pharnaces, penned the short- est military despatch in the annals of war, ‘I camg,I saw, I conquered,’ his words were no* Macht with a tithe of the importance att..ched to the laconicism of the American general, announcing a détermination ‘to fight it out on this line if it takes all summer.’ And when the cowled priest of the middle ages chanted his church ritual

And yet, in all that go to make up a man whose services are worthy of the commemoration of the human race, what benefits resulted from his success !
‘* During Czesar’s military life over one million men fell in his various campaigns. Stripped of their mere military glory, what boon befell the world asthe result of his achievements? What a glorious work of regeneration lay within the grasp of Czesar. Did he attempt reform? Did he give liberty to the slave? Did he stop the sport with human blood? Did he restore the re- public that fell with the murder of the Gracchii’ He grasped power by over- riding the laws. He constituted himself imperator, in the practical sense of emper- or; and prepared the way for the actual émpire under Augustus. A greater man than Czesar, because more godlike, has lived in our day, and now lies in state, within the sacred walls of yonder tomb.
‘*And what of other military geniuses / The field of Marathon was won by a Greek
countrymen for a capital offence, and con-
pey, the Roman, represents the aristocracy of Rome, and fell in their defence. Han- nibal’s brilliant genius was given, not to the establishment of a broad principle, im- portant to humanity, but to the mainten- ance of the commercial supremacy of his country. Scipio Africanus but followed the legend of Rome—Delanda est Carthago —and knew no loftier purpose than the destruction of a commercial rival. The empire of Charlemagne, representing no new epoch in history, and no establishment of a great principle, fell to pieces after his death. Wellington was not as great a sol- dier as Napoleon, while his sword was car- ried at the simple command of a sovereign not often just and never magnanimous. In something Jess than a quarter of a century Napoleon Bonaparte came upon the field of human activity, ran through his dazzling career, and, like an eagle shorn of both talons and pinions, was cooped up in a nar- row prison-wall, where he was destined to terminate his days in inglorious complaint. The Roman general Sulla was one of the most brilliant military geniuses of his period. His career covers an important page in Roman history. After his death a monument was erected to honor him, upon which was inscribed an epitaph that he himself had written, as follows: *I am Sulla, the fortunate, who, in the course ‘of my life, have surpassed both friends and enemies; the former by the good and the latter by the evil 1 have done them.’ ‘*Men and women of America. In our generation a man has lived great enough as a military leader to subdue a force of insur- rection that could have annihilated any army of the world from the time of Cyrus down to that of Napoleon. A man has lived, who, weighed with the enormous re- sults flowing from his work inio the ramifi- cations of the unknown future, was im-
1878. There is an increase of 5,433,804 in the tonnage of shipping that carries on the trade of our ports. In 1878, we had 6,664 miles of railway; in 1885, 10,149 miles. In 1878, a train mileage of 19,000,000 miles; in 1875, 30,623,000 miles. In 1878, a pas senger traflic of 6,444,000 ; in 1885, 9,672,- 599 passengers. 'In 1878, 7,833,000 tons of freight ; in 1885, 14,679,999 tons. And yet we are told by che Grit secessionists that this country is going to the dogs, and Nova Scotia must secede or else go to that famed spot—whereever it may chance to be located—along with the other provinces of the Domion. If these statistics are omens of approaching ruin, let us have more ruin and that right speedily! These facts out- weigh any amount of Grit secessionist bunk- um, claptrap and lies.—Halifax Herald.

It is well to have a decided opinion, but only genius can express it so clearly that nothing is left to the imagination.
A California farmer sent $5 to a man in the east in exchange for six gourd seeds warranted to produce gourds of a capacity of forty gallons. After waiting long for the seeds to sprout, he investigated and found that they were artistically carved out of basswood,
Jules Verne’s wound from the pistol shot of his insane nephew has given him more trouble than was expected, for although the vecurrence took place nearly three months ago, he is still confined to his bed, And it will be several months before he can hope to go around without the aid of crutches.
Prof. Pritchett, of St. Louis, says that the days are getting longer at the rate of two seconds in a century, owing to the tides, which act as friction brakes upon the earth’s axis, and thus decrease its velocity. According to this theory, in 6,600 years eight hours’ labor will be equal to ten hours now.
A capais for the arrest of Alfred Finne more, cheese buyer, at London, Ont., has been issued at the instance of the manager of the Bank of Commerce. He is indebted to that bank to the extent of $25,000. He mortgaged his property a a of days ago for $12,000, the cash which ine is be- lieved to have taken with him. Finnemore is supposed to have fled to New York.

In al) authentic military history, the work of but one individual ap- proaches that of Grant. Two names should be chiseled upon the majestic column that, leaping from the banks of the Potomac, rears its graceful head far into the clouds, the living embissador from a grateful people
New York. The movement is to support the Third Avenue strikers and the men say not a car will be run on any of the roads until the trouble is settled. The strike is a complete surprise to the horse car com- panies and the public, for the men kept their intention secret and not the slightest intimation of their purpose leaked out. It is now thought that the elevated roads will join in the movement. This will complete- iy block travel in both cities, and cause no end of annoyance to the public and busi- ness interests of the city, The Jersey City roads huve also laid up.
