CAN KEEP OUT OF THE MESS.
Lord Sal'sbury, while mavaging to throw the whole weight of this country against Russia, bas not committed it to conti- nental action. Thus far he has created a league which will crush Russia with- out compromising [ngland as an active factor. Of course, +f there is a grand attack on Russia, au itching desire here to join in the fray may very likely over- weigh considerations of prudence, but there are no signs now that England is collecting allies whom she will jead to batile, as in the Crimea. The Russians are very anxious to keep England out of the quarrel. Their papers for the last fortnight ard full of praise of English fairness in the setilemeat of the Afghan ‘matier, which is probably the first time for a quarter of a century that Moscow has had soft words for London. The priveipal danger for England being dragged into tha conflict lies in Armenia, the integrity of which she has gudrau- teed and ever whica she has a nominal protectorate. The Russians have made ‘a@ great fortress of Batoum, and the Porte expects a descent in force from Kars, where an army corps of Russians is concentrated. In case of this England would be called by her treaty obligations ito intervene; but, so far as urope is concerned, the English burden of ‘respon- sibility, as I said a month ago, has been ‘shifted to Ausirian shoulders. A Rus sian occupation of Bulgaria will be the signal for the swarming of Austrian whitecoats i in Servia avd Roumelia and for the bloodiest struggle Europe has had in many yexrs. By Monday you ‘may hear that Hungary is ablaze with enifusiasm as never before, and that | Berlin is ready to back Vi ienna not o only with sympathy, but with soldiers, if Austria needs them.—V. Y.

Agricultural Education. The Gazette des Campagnes complains, as we have ourselves often complained, of the indifference of our farming popula- tion to agricultural education. To judge by the apathy with which the subject is regarded, and the fewness of those who avail themeelves of the opporiunities provided for insiruction in the scientific principles of cultivation, such training is not considered necessary at all. Most of the farmers of the province, says the Gazette, seem to think ihat theoretical and practical education, such as is aflorded at our agricultural schools, is useless. They are especially loth to part with their sons while any benefit can be derived from their service at home, although the time thus devoted to the acquirement of knowledge would am- ply repay any expense ivcurred or what- ever less or inconvenience might temporarily result from the absence of the young men. As our contemporary points out, the years or months thus spent are really the best employed por- tions of their early lives, and confer on them advantages the loss of which is to many a cause of constant regret. The thoroughly educated man, entering on the practice of his career as a farmer, has just the same superiority over other farmers as the proiessional physician kas over onefwho has dabbled in medicine, whatever natural ab lity or skill the latier may have. ‘That some make poor use of their knowledge and training is no argu- ment against the value a those privileges, asin all walks of life there are those who make less account of their oppor- tunities than they might do. But it is still worse to slight those opportunities altogether, and farmers who do go, in the gol iden years of youth, will have much to deplore ali their lives long.

Japanese Opposition to Chris-
tianity.
The oppenents of Christianity in Japan have banded together to resist the spread of the Christian religion. Several such agsc- c:ations exist in different cities ; but in no case do they appear to be numerous. In one instance, about twenty of them, carry- ing fiags, inscribed ‘***xpel Christ, the Robber,” entered a Greek chapel; but cxused no disturbance. In Osaka and Yo- kohama they have held public meetings ; and in the former place, violence was vueed toward those who took the part of the Chrietians. Not infrequently the Budd- hist priests are roused by the progress of the Christian religion to try to refute its -|doctrines. In one case, when Obhristian services were announced in a town where there is no church, the priests secured a room edjoining the building in which ihe missionary was to speak. A celebrated
juddhist orator was secured to defend Buddhism. The people went in large num- bers to hear him ; but when they found his whole speech was to be a violout attack on other religions, they left, and went to hear the missionary who, without reference to
Suddhiem, preached a plain Gospel dis- course. The people were pleased with it, and said :—‘‘If that is Christian teaching, Christianity is good. The priests, they said, have 2 losing canse ; they are not able to defend their religion.
