The present excitement in France, the fre- quent changes of government, the efforts of General Boulanger’s friends to boom him as a national hero, and the evident anxiety of the populace to avenge the humiliation which the nation suffered in 1871, leads European politi- cians to believe that a new French revolution is not far off. For sixteen years France has enjoyed a republican form of government, under which the ceuntry has made marvellous progress. The enormous war indemnity de- manded by Bismarck in 1871, which was ex- pected to crush the energies of the people for- ever has been paid off, the country’s colonial

possessions have been extended, and great strides have been made in com- merce and agriculture. But the French

people apparently, like the Jews of old, are not satisfied with wise and prudent adminis- tration. They want aking, a military hero, who will revive the traditions of Napoleon, and perhaps plunge the country into a bloody war. It is because General Boulanger is a hater of Germany and isin return hated by the Germans, that the cries of ‘‘Vive Boulan- ger,” are heard in the streets of Paris. And observing historians are calculating that it is about time, according to precedent, that a political upheaval of some kind should take place in France. A New York exchange points that it is now sixteen years since there was a revolution in Paris, and then a few no- bodies got up out of the gutters and held the city against the national government for two months and ahalf, though the government had in its hands the substantial remnants of a veteran army. Sixteen years is a long time between revolutions. Between Louis X VIII. and Charles X., the restoration held on for fifteen years; Louis Phillippe held on for eighteen ; Lonis Napoleon held on for nine- teen. This gives an average of a little higher than sixteen years between each revolution in France during the present century. The

Obituary.

Died at Gilroy, Cal., on the 11th June, in the 43rd year of her age, Martha Jane, the beloved wife of Mr. R. C. Orr, and daughter of the late Wm. Bagnall, Ksq., of New Glas gow, P. E. Island.

Before some sorrows we can only bow om heads with silent hearts. Such an one was the recent death of Mrs. R. C. Orr, a devoted wife and loving mother.

As her life gradually ebbed towards the mystic river, her great heart, purified and softened by sorrow and suffering, overtlowed by good will and charity for all mankind, Her departure leaves a lone place in the hearts of kindred and friends, om an aching void in the memories of husband and children, But why mourn for one who has only gone before, whose bright spirit now adorns the realms of eternal peace and beauty, floating in a sphere of ,infinite love, peopled only with the blessed ones of earth. O! what a conso- lation isthe thought to those who mourn. Sorrow should be mingled with joy, knowing

what a beautiful flower from the path of righteousness has been Oars to a revion where it shall never fade. Life-—but

the cradle tothe grave—is but a few days, compared with immortality. Only the casket of life remains. Its immortal tenant has de- parted to a better, purer sphere. Though hard for husband, children, brothers and sis- ters in any view of such a bereavement as

that death is, with all its terrors, but the answering of the spirit to the supreme com- mand of the all Father to come up higher, a simple return to the soul's true home—then may they say, “Thy will be done.”

Our friend sleeps in silent death,

No sighs of pain at every breath.

Her heart has stilled, her spirit bas flown To that vast world, that great unknown,

If future life be calm, serene

As her wan face, break not the dream, Rut rather let her peaceful rest

Like slumbering babe on mother’s breast.

Husband, sons, and friends gather round, Before they raised the sacred mould; ‘They hearken to the funeral knell,

And softly breathe their sad farewell.

Ob God, hear thou the husband’s prayer, His heart is pierced with keen depair, Alas! he wails in woeful tune,

Life’s journey now must be alone.

The Panama Canal Outlook.

4 TRAVELLER SAYS IT WILL NOT BE FINISHED FOR SEVERAL YEARS,

{ From the New York World.)

Arthur W. Roudier, an English translator of the Societe Traraux Publics and Construc- tion at Bas Obispo, United States of Colum bia, whose father, a civil engineer, died at Panama some time ago, returned from there last week, and yesterday gave a World re- porter an interesting account of the work on the Panama Canal, as well as of the state of the employes and laborers,

**So far as I could see,” said he, ‘‘there is a great waste of money in building fine dwell- ings for the directors and head men, _beauti- ful hospitals which the laborer can only enter by paying $2.50 per day, and large buildings for the transaction of the clerical work. Be- yond staking out the canal the only part on which much work has been done is on the gulf side, where about 15 miles has been made navigable for small boats by the American Dredging Company, which has finished promptly whatever it has taken hold of. At La Baca, on the Pacific side, itis with diffi- culty that they can keep any one at work, the climate is so deadly.”

**Can the canal be finished in 1890?”

‘**No. What work can you expect when the bosses and head centractors keep up tre- | mendous establishments, and when they ought to be at work spend most of their time promenading, riding, or at the clubs they have formed. Some of them even rig them- selves out in Moorish costumes sad strut about like grandees. At the rate they are

At Bas Obispo there is an immense force of clerks that from 8 toll a. m., from 2 to 5 p. m., are kept busy writing and answering aes. copying reports and telegraphing. Although | the company provides a room for each clerk | in one of the numerdus little houses erected on

the hillsides it takes all of a clerk’s $100 to

$110 a month to keep him from running in | debt to the canteens and restaurants that are owned by the company. Owing to the few amusements at Bas Obispo and the childish regulations clerks lead a life worse than a New York boot-black’s. Not only is a record | kept, thatis forwarded bi-yearly to Paris, of

their daily conduct as to morals and_polite-

ness to superiors, but their bed time is pre- | scribed for 9 p. m,. and the condition of their rooms frequently examined. Leaving town without permission is strictly forbidden. Ser- vility to superiors rather than business capa- city secures promotion.

‘The civil engineers get $150 to $200 per month and a house, but as they are exposed to the terrible Chagres fever they are but little better off than the laborers. ‘The latter, mostly Chinese and negroes, lead a_ terrible life for a paltry $20 per month, or if they stay for two years, $1.60 per day, the difference between the two rates of wages being paid at the end of the second year of service. They live in dirty barracks and are carried off by fever at the rate of 20 in 1,000. The Chinese, however, don’t stay long enough to suffer, for they leave almost as soon as they get there.”

** No, sir, | have buried my father there. I don’t care to bury myself. The mortality was so great where Iwas, that they were building the third cemetery when I left.”

Unable to Get a Bishop.

(From the Philadelphia Inquirer, July 12.)

There is no little anxiety in the Episcopal diocese of Easton, Md., about the election of a bishop. Since the death of Bishop Lay in 1885, five attempts have been made to get a

bishop, all of which resulted in failure. Four of the candidates elected declined, and one died within a week after his election. Last

month another attempt was made, and the Right Rev. Dr. Adams, a resigned bishop, was elected by the convention. They were happy over their choice, as he was already consecrated, and nothing would be required but the consent of the bishops and standing committees. But it turns out that there is a

of any bishop who has resigned. Bishop Adams was the missionary bishop of New. Mexico and Arizona, and resigned after hold- ‘ng his office less than one year. It is claimed that under the canon his election is illegal. If this beso, the diocese of Easton must try once again,
