Sir,—I have lately received as a valued present from a friend, a beautiful photo- graph of the Tomb ef James the Third, King of Great Britain, Ireland and France; andof his two sons, in the Cathedral of St. Peter at Rome. Some old recollections have come upon me, and developed themselves into the subjoined lines. The Grandson of John Sobieski, King of Poland, who saved Christian Europe from being over-run and ravaged by the Mahometan Horde of Tarks ! The race of modern English politi- cians, who profess to consider that Constan- tinople in the hands of a strong, efficient Government, Christian as well as Russian, would bea danger and evil to England greater than that of the blowing up and dynamitation of the Czar, the Prince of Wales,the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, with allthe Crowned Heads and Hereditary Princes of Europe, by the Nihilists !

Shareholder and Insurance (From the Gazette. ) There will always be persons among the holders of shares in joint-steck companies who advocate the immediate division of the profits. There may be cases in which such a policy is desirable, or at any rate not altogether objectionable, but such instan- ces are so rare as not to interfere with the general principle. The conditions under which the operations of large joint-stock enterprises are carried on are subject to se many fluctuations ; so much depends upon their absolute stability ; the revenue de rived frem the investments forms the total available resources ef many, and the chief maintenance of innumerable families who look for their means of support to the divi- dends derivable therefrom; that any line of policy insuring regularity in the payment of the periodical dividends is net only de- sirable, but in accordance with sound prin- ciples. But, say those who want to have everything divided at once, ‘‘ we are not bound to do anything for pesterity, inas- much as posterity has done nothing for us.” The genius who first invented this wonderful argument was wise in not hand- ing his name down to posterity. Suffice it to say, that though often made use of to- day by a lot of superticial optimists, the argument is as old as the hills, and reflects no credit upon anyone who seriously em- ploys it. ‘To deny ourselves present grati- fications in order to make prevision for the future is one of the mest important lessons that reason teaches us. and is one of the strongest dividing lines that separate the human being from the brute creaticn. But in laying by a strong reserve, or, in other words, by saving in a peried of prosperity to make up fora rainy day, our great banking institutions have earned for themselves a name and a credit that has greatly added to their dividend earning power. Nor have they done so at the expense of the present generation. On the contrary, every dollar added to the reserve fund of a bank or other joint-stock concern is just so much laid aside for the shareholder, to be return- ed to him at the final winding up of the concern, or if he sells out at once will bene- tit him by the enhanced price of his stock. This is the invariable result. A large re- serve fund not only adds to the prestige of a bank and its credit, and thus enables it te act with greater independence for the bene- fit of its shareholders and the welfare of cemimerce, and at the same time command confidence and respect, but by at once enhancing the property of its shareholders it places money immediately in their pockets. If,a bank, year after year, pays a dividend out of capital or reserve its shares immediately fall ; if it adds annually to its rest these advances, and if these re- sults are not at all times immediately mani- fest, it must be owing to other and abnor- mal conditions affecting the money market or otherwise. In declaring their dividends, managers and directors are wise if they are ‘value of money. guided to a certain extent by the At present, in Canada, the rate of interest is low, the cost of {living is equally low, and a half-yearly ' dividend of three or four per cent. will admit, in the great majerity ef cases, as ainple a meaus of support as four or five per cent. a few years ago. We believe that the present cheapness of money will ere long induce the establishment of new fields of enterprise, or that other causes will, in the not far distant future, tend to enhance considerably the value of money; aud when that time comes, it will be found that those banks which are to-day pursuing a wise and conservative policy will be those that will find it easiest to declare the larger dividends that the future may, make possible. In any case, shareholders will do well to sustain the action of their repre- sentatives when these are in the direction dictated by, principles of economy and pru- dence.

Wool.—The new wool clip of Ohio is being marketed by farmers rapidly, al- though on a declining market. The season opened at about 40c, but has since de- clined to SJi@82e per tb. Farmers are said te be hurrying forward their supplies in expectation of a still further decline. The Wheat Harvest.—A letter from Saline County, Missouri, says that the wheat harvest there was beginning (on the 7th inst.,) with splendid weather and ex- pectation of reaping the finest crep for the past ten years. Samples of new wheat were received in St. Louis on Wednesday frem Eastern Missouri and Western Iilineis, the condition of the grain beingtirs ¢-class. 7. eon + ----— sions enon Latest News Notes. Earl Granville, speaking at a banquet given him by the London Fishmongers’ Company, said present indications of Euro- pean concerted action were extremely favor- abie. An exchange has an article on ‘‘How to rin a newspaper.” This should be read only by editers, as every other person in the World khows just how a newspaper ought to be run. The State of Virginia hires out five hun- dred and twenty-iive ef her convicts to work on her railroads and other public im- provements, for whom she receives twenty- five cents each a day, When General Garfield’s elass had their twenty years’ reunion in 1876 one of his classmates slapped Garfield on the shoulder and said, jekingly : ‘‘Jim, if you behave yourself you'll get into the Senate in five years, and if you don’t make a fool of your- self you'll be President one of these days. The Opposition organ at Ottawa says that the number of families leaving for the various watering places this season is something unparalleled for several years. This is another example of how the N. P. is ruining us. People don’t usually take an expensive summer trip when their business is bad, but stay at home, as they have been forced te do during the five years of Grit rule. The three hundreth anniversary of Caineen’s death, which has been eliciting so much enthusiasmin Portugal and Brazil, reminds us ef the number of celebrations of this kind which have marked the last quar- ter of a century. The names of Burns, Shakspeare, Scott, O'Connell, Moore, Beethoven, Moritz Arn:t, Tasso, Voltaire, Rousseau, Napoleon the First, at once sug- gest themselves, but a little reflection or research would greatly increase this list. Before leaving South Africa, Sir Garnet Welsely gave a casual proof how hard a man he is. He and his military secretary, Herbert Stewart, rode from Pretoria te Pietermaritzburg, a distance of 340 miles, in three days. Sir Garnet had got so wearied by the bumping of the post-cart that he would have no more of that con- veyance, and took to the saddle instead. He and Stewart rode troop horses, which were Jaid out for them on dak, as in India. The performance is net a bad one for a man who has a bullet straggling about inside his thigh. Advices from the Quebec side of the Bay of Chealur, are to the effect that salmon commerced to ascend the Grand Cascapedia about Lith inst., some 28 days later than last year. They appear to be very scarce, only a few having been taken in nets as yet His Excellency the Governer General was. expected to arrive about the 16th inst., but the fact that the fish have only commenced to ascend will, in all probability, induce him to postpone his visit till the prospects fer sport are assured. Col. DeWinton has al- ready paid a visit to the waters and selected a site for the erection of a cottage for the Vice-Regal party. The building, which was constructed in Quebec, was brought down in a schooner and then hauled a dis- tance of seven miles to the place selected. The frame is now up, the walls planked, windows and doors in position, and the roof ready for shingling. The structure will be ready for occupancy in less than a fortnight. It is not yet definitely known how many persons will comprise the Vice- Regal party, but it is expected that there will be quite a number. re gama amneetingemnmaes > Ag aac ca AO waa am nes ait ote a a sage reas
