For a Few Days Longer,

Archdeacon Farrar.

(From the Boston Advertiser.

The visit of Archdeacon Farrar to this country, on a tour partly private and partly public, as nearly all distinguished Evglish- men now come to America, wil] give much pleasure to the thousands who have read his books and followed with interest his steady and well earned advancement to a represen- tative rank among English churchmen. Though classed with Kingsley, Stanley and Maurice, he is not an intense partisan. In recent yoars he has led the movement toward a better statement of the doctrine of the future life, and has identified himself strongly with the educational, social and For this latter service he is peculiarly fitted, and has done a great work. He is an unusually active parish minister, a man of broad and deep sympathies, an author of distinction ‘iu several lines, and a preacher of extra-

ordinary eloquence and power. He under-

|stands and appreciates the struggles and

ithe aspirations of all classes, and he lives

‘and thinks and labors as their helper.

| His literary work is not more remarkable

' for scholarship and vigor than for its clear) ‘aims to strengthen the religious life, to

make men better acquainted with the motive

| and wisdom, as well as with the text of the

| Scriptures, and to vivify the personality of | the founders of the christian faith. In this

|regard, his books have been successful be-

| yond any similar works of our own tive. |

He is, indeed, a genuine scholar; but his

| scholarship, ike his eloquence, is devoted

| to the instruction and elevation of human-

ity. His American readers and friends will | be glad to see the face and hear the speech | of one Whom they respect, not only for the ‘pleasure he has given them, but for the | real help and comfort he has afforded. Let | us hope that he will carry back to England la just knowledge of the intellectual, social ‘and spiritual life of this land, so like, and _yetso unlike, hisown in the conditions of | its development. .His noble address at the |recent memorial services in Westminster Abbey, showed how fully he appreciated ‘the motives and significance of our natioval mourning for General Grant. He repre- sents not more the fresh and hopeful life in the English Church than in the English state. He isa spokesman of many interests _ that are dear to all earnest menand women ‘among English-speaking peoples, and oc- | cupies a position which causes what he says | to be widely read and influential in deter- | mining public opinion.

Keep on the Farm.

> In these dull times, when scores of young

on his stock of Boots and Shoes purchased’ men are out of employment, and others are from now until that date (rubber goods ex-

crowding in from other places, seeking for so-called ** genteel ” situations, it is well to

This is a Genuine Reduction, in order to give wide publicity to such facts as are set)

|forth in the following extracts from the | New York Journal of Commerce :—One of 'the great problems of our day, too little | discussed by those who have the ear of the {public through the press or at the forum, is to furnish the young men of this genera- | tion with remunerative employment. The professions are all overcrowded. The shop- | keepers are by far toonumerous. Agencies | of all kinds are so multiplied that the occu- | pants tread on each other’s toes and are a | bore and a nuisance to the general public. Clerks out of employment are to be reckon- |ed by their tens of thousands. Bookkeepers | with hungry eyes are reading the advertis- \ing lists in vain hope of an opening for their application. Collectors, messengers, ‘door-keepers, watchmen, conductors, Yand ithe great variety of others, already expert, | seeking employment in kindred callings, are waiting anxiously for some one to en- igage them, Every possible form of service ithat can be reckoned in the list of ‘genteel cccupations is anxiously sought ‘after by multitudes who have no other provision for their Gaily needs. The men who have been living by their wits must goto work atthe bench or in the field ; of these the soil offers the most re- munerative employment, The mass of the | unemployed must seek the sustenance from |the bosom of mother earth. Land is cheap jand there isa wide area that awaits the itiller. The back may ache, and the skin i blister in the sun, but the bread can be | made without fear of failing, if the laborer | will be faithful to his calling. It needs ‘less wisdom and forethought than patient industry, and the man with a common mind can eat his harvest in peace.

Real Holstein Cattle.

The ancient Duchy of Holstein, which was wrested from Denmark by Germany a few years ago, possesses extensive lowlands reclaimed from the sea. These were not ancient lake beds, like much cf the present area of Holland, but salt water marshes ;

hence sre known to-day as the Holstein Marshes. The population is almost exclusively agricultural, and possess a valuable breed of neat cattle which is bred both. for beef and for milk. As milch cows they have

achieved no special fame, but the beef is excellent. The strains of milch and beef cattle are kept quite distinct, as among shorthorns. They are fairly well-formed, judging them by cur notions, and are the basis of a very profitable trade. In color they are black aud white, or dark brown, or red and white, and show clearly that they have been modified by the shorthorn cross, otherwise are much like the Friesian and North Holland cattle, which pass by the trade name of ‘* Holstein” in this country. A notable difference between the Holstein beef and that of Normandy, which also finds its way to the great markets of the metropo- lis, is that its fat is white while that of the French beef is often golden yellow, like that of the Guernseys, and many of the Jersey cattle.

There is a temperance insuraace company in Scotland, and by its regulations a tota! abstainer can obtain insurance at 10 per

cent, less premium than a moderate drinker.

Miramichi Valley Railway.

The prospective early completion of the Mirawichi Valley railway, which will con nect the towns at the mouth of that river with the continental system at Gibson, on the New Brunswick railway, ia filling the people there with high hopes of the import- arce their respective ports will yet attain. By the adoption of Chatham or Neweastle asa port of call for ocean steamers, the distance between New York aud Liverpool would be shortened thirty hours, which is a matter of considerable importance, not only to travellers but gto merchants and others as regards their wail service. The great obstacle in the way of the present fulfilment of these hopes is the fact that ocean steamers have to depend for the pro- fits of a voyage on the receipts for freight carried, and this would prevent any line as at present constituted from availing itself of the advantages of the new route, which would be manifestly at a disadvantage in the carriage of heavy goods. However, if the ideas now entertained by some who have studied the subject, that steamers will yet be built solely for the conveyance of passengers, leaving the carriage of freight to slower vessels, should eventually prevail, our New Brunswick friends may yet see the great bulk of trans-Atlantic travel carried across their province on its way to and from Europe, and the sumsaer terminus of great steamship lines at one of their ports.

Canadian Northwest Wheat.

An interesting experiment has just been made in England, which proves beyond a doubt the exceptional strength and qaality of the wheat grown in the Canadian North- west. On February 27/1 of this year a sample of No. 1 hard red Fyfe wheat, from the Candian Pacific railway Dunmore ex- perimental farm in the Northwest was for- warded by Mr. Alex. Begg, representing the Canadian Pacific railway in Europe, through Mr. Dunham, of the Miller, toa farm near Colchester, Essex, Eng., and there sown in what was but poor, thin soil. The wheat came up well, and was gathered on August 12th. Threshing showed it to be well developed, very souud, and in every respect an excellent sample. On the London market the quotations for the grain ranged from thirty-four to thirty-six shil- lings per quarter of 480 lbs., while the best red wheat was fetching only thirty-two to thirty-three shillings. In other words, the Canadian Northwest sample sown on poor English soil obtained ‘top prices.” The general expression of English millers and dealers was that the wheat was unquestion- ably a very fine sample, and almost any quantity, well harvested, cleaned and shipped, would fiod a profitable market in Great Britain.

Definition of a True Lady.

A wonan may be a lady in the highest sense of the word, independent of what is called *‘ birth” or any of its attendant cir- cumstances. Noblen:ss of nature surpasses mere nobleness of birth—the one is often apart and independent of the other, and sometimes the highest, ethe purest, the brightest gems of character have been found in those not of gentle birth, A lady has refined thoughts, her ideas are all beautiful ; she has principle, she has cour- age; she can enter into the thoughts of hearts, the lives of others; she is sensitive to the very tips of her fingers ; she is un- selfish, living less for herself than for those around her. Her love of truth is as the air she breathes. She is ‘ender to her friends, polite to her enemies, if she has any, and courteous to mere acquaintances, Prosperity does not affect her towards her friends; adversity does not nnnerve hers She never attempts to show ber superiority over others in any accomplishment. Her ideas never jar on her hearers. She is firm, but never positive; her temper is always unruffied No petiy annoyance can disturb the even serenity of her mind. In short, her nobleness of nature surpasses mere nobleness of birth ; but the two must make a perfect woman indeed.

More Russian War Preparations. The Russian Government has decided to transfer the administration of its Biack Sea fleet from Nicolaieff to Sebastapol, the harbor at the latter place being much en- larged, and immense forts and other works of defence are being constructed around its approach. The Czar is also organizing @ new fleet to be stationed at Batoum, on the east coast of the Black Sea. The Russian Government is erecting barracks for the accommodation of 30,000 troops at Rostoff, on the Don. These barracks and their defences will connect the military works in the Caucasus with those in Central Russia, The Crimea is also being strengthened by the erection of a number of medern bat- teries at’ Kertch. A Russian naval com- mission will scon be despatched to examine and report on the condition of the harbors along the Greek and Turkish coasts. sane

A Tale of Two Emperors.

At Gastein. when the Emperor and Em- press of Austria tovk leave of Kaiser Wil- helm, the latter wished to accompany them some distance from the Badeschioss. They begged him to spare himeelf that fatigue, but he insisted on going. Then Franz Josef, with dignified pleasantry, said; ‘‘When you are wearing my uniform you should obey my orders.”” Whereupon Kai- ser William, who was in the dress of ean Austrian colonel, drew himself up, gravely saluted, and replied: “I must, of course, obey your majesty’s commands !”

The Duke of Edinburgh intends shortly to give up his farm at Eastwell Park. The farming instead of producing a profit of some $10,000 a year, as was intended, haa

resulted in a loss of $2,000 a year.
