ed women, Queen Elizabeth, for instance, whose learning has been no bar, but rather a help to the management of households and even kingdoms. But whilst we admit and maintain all this, we may well pause before inviting young women at acritieal period of life to enter into competition with men. Kveryone knows that the constitutions of young men are often severely tried in the race for distinction or position, and that the contest seems to be becoming keener every day. It is true that there is no such high pressure amongst ourselves as Presbytery as a corresponding member. in England, and perhaps in the

Co-Education.

In concluding his rezent Convocation speech, the President of King’s College, Windsor, said :—

“There is another warmly discussed topic I could just touch upon, and that is the higher education of women. Of course I can only touch upon the fringe of this delicate subject, but [do venture upon it, because it is exercising people’s minds, and also because I may possibly elicit well- considered and valuable remarks upon it from those who will speak after me.

Quite recently the Oxford Convocation decided to admit women to competition with men in certain university examina- tions. It seems probable that this will be the beginning of a change which will throw all the schools open to women equally with men. Is this desirable, ornot!? Two argu- ments I noticed were especially dwelt upon by the advocates of the change :

First, Cambridge had adopted the system and Oxford could not afford to be less liberal and be left behind.

Second, It would be a real help to women who meant to adopt the profession of teach- ing in the upper classes.

The first argument is simply one of those appeals to interest and that spirit of rivalry which are made to do duty for reagon and logic. As regards the second, we must all sympathise with the class whom the ad vocates of the change desire to benetit. They will always be a limited exceptional body, and if they only were effected, there would not be much ground for opposition But there is a serious fallacy, it seems to me, underlying the arguments of many advocates of the movement. It is that there is no difference mentally between men and women, and therefore there ought to be no difference in their education. This statement is re-iterated with such con- fidence that it may surprise some to hear it questioned. Yet it is clearly and demons trably untrue. The statement that men and women are mentally alike is as untrue as that they are alike bodily. Just as certainly as they have physical differences relating to their respective parts in life, so certainly they have corresponding mental differences. This does not require elaborate detailed proof, although much could be given; a very little reflection will show us itis the case. Sometimes indeed the ad- vantage seems to be on the side of the girls. We all know that a girl developes in mind and body rapidly and that she has all her | faculties in fully play when the boy is com-

paratively awkward and unformed in mind | and body. At the same time, however, the boy can safely endure severe and prolonged mental and bodily exertion which would be ruinous to the girl’s consti- tution. But let us guard against misap- prehension. It could not be true to say that we are averse to the higher education of women because we assert that the differ- ences between the sexes must always be ‘taken into account. On the contrary, we earnestly maintain that the same cultivation that is attempted in the education of men should be aimed at in that of women. It is a narrow view of things to suppose that a just cultivation of women’s mental powers will take them out of their sphere ; it will only enlarge that sphere. It has been said that the most cultivated women perform their common duties best. Anyhow they |can see more in those duties, which may ‘help them to do more. Cultivated nurses ‘and Sisters of Charity kave taught us so ‘much as this. And there have been learn-

tional cases such as L have referred to, we appear to be justified in saying that no gen- eral system of education can be a healthy one which does not take into account the fundamental distinction of the sexes and the different functions they have to preform in life.”’

The Canadian Loan.

The mail brings some fuller particulars of the terms of the recent Canadian loan placed in London. The prospectus states that its object is :—First, to make good to the consolidated revenue fund the loans which have already been paid, and also other Joans which are to mature before the Ist day of January, 1892 ; secondly to meet the charges relating to the Canadian Pacific Railway, or for the granting of subsidies for railway purposes, or to provide for the construction of public works for which £3,000,000 is required. The prin- cipal of the loan is to be repaid in Lon- don at any time within the years 1909 and 1934 upon the government giving six months’ notice to that effect. A cumula- tive sinking fund of not less than 4 per cent. per anntm will be employed in the purchase of Dominion three-and-a-half per cent. bonds of stock at or below par ; but the government may invest the sinking fund in other securities should the price be above

par. Payment will be required as follows: 5 per cent. on application, and on

allotment the remaining differences be- tween 70 per cent. and the price tendered The Times in noticing the iseue observes that the last occasion on which the Dominion of Canada appeared as a borrower on the London market was in 187%, when a four per cent. loan of three million was offered at the minimum price of ninety-five. In the five years which have since elapsed the sterling debt of the Dominion has been reduced by £3,600,000, or one-seventh of its total amount. This has been effected partly by the regular action of the sinking fund and partly by the redemption of the old six per cent, bonds as they matured.

The University Question.

An Ottawa despatch says: ‘‘ It is weil- known that among the questions requiring solution at the hands of Dom Smeulders, the Papal Delegate now in Canada, is the Laval University question. The troubles of Laval, and the opposition its medical faculty especially has met with at Mon- treal, are well-known. In this connection the recent visit of His Excellency to Ot tawa, where he presided at the Convoca-

tion of University College, and laid the corner-stone of the new buildings, is

thought to have special significance. His Excellency has made no communication on the subject, and it is not probable that the University question is yet decided. It is however, considered likely that a solution will be reached by closing of Laval and making Ottawa the Catholic university of Canada. The reason for this change and the advantages to be gaimed by it are several. In the first place, the recurring disputes about Laval and the extent of its authority would no longer exist. The Catholic university of Canada must be-one in which, as in Ottawa University, the official language is English. The location of Laval at the Ancient Capitol will be another policy which will weigh against it in the Delegate’s consideration of the question. The institution has already re- ceived marks of the special approbation of the Pope. It may be some time before any decision cf the question is reached, but at present the tendency of things is that the decision will be as above indicated.

Five hundred and six Mormons, mostly in families, arrived in New York a few days ago. ‘They are from Scandinavia, with the exception of 100 from England, Scotland and Wales. There are no Irish converts among them. There is an unusual number of little children. The entire party started for Utah this afternoon by a special train over the Erie, and will distribute them- selves in all portions of the territory.

Inquiries are frequently made by com- mercial men in this country as to the meaning of the new regulation of the Cus- toms Department of Canada that all in- voices must bear a certificate from the exporter. We understand that all that is required is that the invoice should be en- dorsed to the following effect :—*‘‘Certified correct,” with the usual signature of the firm exporting the goods.—Cunadian Gav- ette, June 12th.
