Since 1874 Mr. Mackenzie has had many * poli- cies.” There was the magnificent water- stretches policy which succumbed to the all- rail policy. ‘There was the construction-by- Government policy which was sneceeded for a time bya construetion-by-company policy, | hut the former is again in the ascendant. We have been told that the work would be pushed through energetically, aud next day Mr. Mills, a pledged opponent of the scheme ab initio, would be taken into the Cabinet, or else Mr. Blake would make a speech denouncing British Columbia as a “sea of mountains,” and implying that the task was an impossible one. Sometimes the Pembina branch is to be worked by the Government as part and parcel of the whole: then it is seriously proposed to hand that important link over to a foreign corporation otticered by two Canadian spee-4 ulators. To-day the Georgian Bay branch is began ; to-morrow it is dropped. Now wahear that Bute Inlet has got the ter- minus ; then it is Burrard or Dean Inlet. The policy pursued by the Premier from the beginning has been one of doubt, vague- ness and instability. It is like the wind in that ‘‘it bloweth where it listeth and no man knoweth whence it cometh or whether it goeth.” — Mail. - ~~. Gems of Thought. Most men know what they hate, few what they love. Prejudice squints when it looks and lies when it talks. The more honesty « man has, less he affects the air of a saint, if vou want enemies, excel others ; it you want friends let others excel you. it is the nature of the human depo-| ferent: the instant one is applied the patient sition to hate him who vou have injur- ' ue « It many times falls out that we deem ourselves. much deceived in others be- cause we first deceive ourselves. Love is of the hature of a barning- vlass, which, kept still in one place, fireth ; changed often it doth nothing. Contemporaries appreciaic the man hather than the merit ; p:osperity will regard the merif rather than the man. The taste of beauty and the relish of tiatuis decént, jast and amiable, \per- “Voets the character of the gentleman. (‘ast forth thy-act. thy word into the ever-living, ever-working universe ; it is a seed grain that cannot die. There are two things to which we never grow accustomed—the ravages of time and the injustice of our fellow- men. {t is heaven upon earth to have a man’s mind moved to charity, rest in Providence and turn upon the poles of truth. ? here is no more implicable enemy than he who has wronged you, and no more unhappy man than such an enemy. An aet by which we make one friend and one enemy is a losing game, beeause revenge is a much stronger passion than gratitude. hove sees what no eye sees; love héars what no ear hears, and what never rose in the heart of man love prepares for its object. Envy may justly be called * the gall of bitterness and bond of imquity”’ ; it ix the most acid fruit that grows on the stock of sin. The streams of religion in a country, or in an individual soul, run deeper or shallower.as the banks of the Sabbath are kept up or neglected. When the great man is laid in the grave, lies of malice are apt to give way to hes of admiration. Men feel his genius more and his faults less. A brave man thinks no one his superior who does him un injury; for he has it then in his power to make himself superior to the other by for- giving it. Nature has given women two painful Hut heavenly gifts, which distinguish them and often raise them above human nature—compassion and enthusiasm. It is easier to detect errors than to discover truth ; the one lies on the sur- ya meen the — oes ‘PRESSED f . \CWELLING CHEAP, ' diately, at i A.
