JANUARY 25, 1883, CORRESPONDENCE. We do not hold-oursel ees responsible for the opinions or statements of our corre sponde nts. A Literary Revolution. T'o the Editor of the Ky aniiner, Dean Srr,—In reading the columns of your valuable paper, my attention was a: rested by the significant. words ‘Literary lustitute,? and expecting something good from this literary production, I carefully read the same. L[lhmitable horror! Pro- found sétigation !* What’ a literary revolu- tiuat will be ours, when that author of in ess than half a dozen mistakes and absurd- ities, in the small space of half a column, shall see the members of that Institution shining in the ‘‘glowing galaxy of the liter- ary firmament.” We appreciate his modesty in saying that he is not ‘taddicted to boastfiulness;”’ bui, it would be treating this literary individual too leniently to allow his assertion of liter- ary preeminence to pass, without enquiring into the nature of such ‘‘satisfactory re- sults,’ We think the assumption is a fair one, that this production of the Mill View, Secretary may be taken as the exponent or representative of the developed genius of the Society; and such being granted we will attempt an analysis of the same. The subjects mentioned by the Secretary doubtless present a large field for thought; ness of the writer that they are far beneath the intellectual range of those ‘‘ brightest stars”; and I cannot help wondering ‘whether J. N, Young and others were suc- cesstul in ‘‘appearing for the Hope of Reward.” I. fail to realize his, meaning, unless it be explained in the fact that ‘‘ the presence of certain smiling faces and fair forms inspired the young gents” with the ‘hopeful thought that they might possibly “fe : be rewarded with the bestowal of a beam- | Life Insurance jing smile of approval. Certainly, under the circumstances, this would inspire them ‘with ‘unusual vim.” It may also account ‘for the fact that no vote was taken on the. i8 merits of the questions, but being decided iby the chairman, ‘‘ The meeting arose | with uncovered heads,” and ceremoniously | dispersed. lf the above is inexplicable, how much “more so is the following: ‘‘ Messrs. Doyle, 'Grant and Murphy, from China Point, appearing for fear of punishment.” How contrary to human nature! I naturally expect men to disappear for fear of pun- | ishment. What are we to infer from this ‘absurdity ? , Were they guilty of some mis- demeanor, and hence a OF being panished shou 'doing so? Or are we to regard it as an un- happy pun emanating from the frui-ful imagination of their secretary! I am in- clined to favor the latter view. \which the meeting is assembled; but the Mill View secretary, notwithstanding his }exalted ideas of mutual improvement, in- forms us that time is to have a very rough ‘handling; for, he adds, ‘if time be we will do so and so. Poor Time! Thou art in danger of being As a matter of consolation, we may state ‘| that the secretary is quite safe in ‘‘ hazard- ing the assertion” that no such institution is to be found on P. E. Island; for we are of the opinion that, if his report be taken as a specimen of the ‘‘ satisfactory results ” of the Society, it is well there is not. In conclusion, ‘if time be spared,’ and if the Mill View secretary be spared, and if he again feels inclined to favor you with another report, [ hope that he will en- |deavor to improve his spare(d) time, and write yon something sensible. I am, yours, etc., } } STUDENT. Ch’town, Jan. 22, 1883. ->-+ To the Editor of the Examuner. My Dear Sir,— Herewith I beg to enclose 'an extract from ‘‘Cicero de Officus,” a | sample of eloquence in the Latin language, which, in my opinion, cannot be surpassed; it may be useful to students of classical tongues to compare its ‘‘ curiosa felicitas,’’ its *‘simplicitas munditus,” with the brief and pithy (I may say the Wellingtonian) terseness of Julins Cesar (the father of Marcus Brutus) in his commentaries. By the bye I have heard of a schoolboy who gave as a transiation of ‘‘ Gallia est omnis divisa, in partes tres,” ‘‘ all Gaul is quarter- ed into three halves.” I am afraid that this same boy was spanked. To this I subjoin copy of what was written (on the fly leaf of jhis Prayer Book,) by the late James William Farrer, Esq., Master in Chancery, of Ingleborough, Yorkshire, to whom, up to the last day of his life, [ could say, as Horace said to his friend aod patron, ‘© Meecenas ! Meerum.” ‘¢ Grande decus, columenque rerum !” ** Quod si in hoc erro, quod Jesuin Chris- tum Salvatarem esse homimum, credam, libenter erro; nec mihi hune errorem, quo delector, dum vivo, extorqueri volo.” I copied the preceding words into the fly leaf of my own prayer book ; I fancied that they must have been taken either from the ‘‘ judicious Hooker,” or Bishop Jeremy Taylor; but, not having those authorities on hand, J wrote toa valued friend of mine, the Rev. Henry Rawlinson, of Bridport, Dorset, to ask him to find the passage ; he could not sueceed in doing so, thereupon applied to the Masters of Eton Odllege; they conld not discover the passag&egbut I myself, turning over the of ‘Cicero de Officus,” in with this difference, ™belief in the im- Farrer he leaves of ni discovered it tit that Cicero asserted mortality of the soul, while substituted his belief in ‘*‘ Salvation Redeemer.” My own motto (one of theif at least) is ** Salus per Christum redemp- torem,”’ but of the two mottoes which I can legitimately claim, I perfer “ Fuimus,’— ‘‘we have been.” Mr. Farrer’s motto is con tremens crim aac but Limagine from the modest boastful-| ypeared through fear they refrain from | One of the grand objects of a Debating | | Society is to improve the hours during| SrxeLe Corres Two Cunts, VOL. 12.---NO, 55, ~~ aac ‘* Ferre va ferme,” ‘‘ well shod goes safe,’’ and this is not far apart from what St. Paul says cf ‘‘ having feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace.” Verbal or literary disquisitions may, per- haps, tend to relieve our minds ‘and thoughts from the irritations and explosions which have lately bothered and troubled us, in a certain parlour, and elsewhere. ‘‘In quiteness and in confidence shall be your strength,’ said Isaiah. But we must compare ote text with another, and refer to Exodus Chapter 14, verse 15, ‘‘ And the Lord said unto Moses, wherefore criest thou unto me’ speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward’ I intend to do 80.

Dun; Wiman & Co.’s circular dealing with the failures of six years, shows an increase in number and amount for 1882 over the previous year, in the United States as well as in the Dominiwmn.

The Pacific States and Territories alone furnished a parallel for the relative number of Canadian failures ; these were as 1 to 68 traders. In the Southern States they nambered 1 to 78; in the Eastern Scates, 1 to 114; in the Middle States, 1 to 149 ani in the Western States they were J ing but ite every '151 traders. : tee The circular regards as a most: un eg feature of the situatien across the fine fact that an increase of failures should be try. The chief reason for this anomelous exhibit is considered to be “‘beyond ques- tidp, the alarming extention of the lines of witnessed.” Respecting the prospect of trade in that country for the new year. Messrs. Dun & Co, say: ‘‘It is diffieult to discover any element of a disturbing char- acter, except, perhaps, over-production by manufacturers ; pressure to sell goods;a tendency to extend. credits ae: and the dangers which result to individuals owing more than they can readily pay.” oe eoeniese ne The Personal Risk of Pass-Holders. The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has just decided a railroad case of considerable local interest. The decision was in the case of the Buffalo, Pittsburg, and Western Rail- road Company against O'Hara, brought up on error to the Common Pleas of Forest county, Pa. Mre. Ellen O'Hara, wife of an employe, was riding on a pass between Oil City and Trankeyville, in the Forest county. The train was dashed into, and she was scalded and otherwise injured. The jury awarded her $3,000, which sum was reduced to $2,000. On the face of the pass, in fine print, was a clause purporting to be a release of ali liability for damage to the person or baggage of the party using the pass, resulting from the negligence of the’company or its servants. The condi- tion was in the following terms :—‘‘ Con- ditioned that the person accepting this pass assumes all risk of accident to his person or property without claims for damages on this corporation. Good only for the person named.” It was signed by the super- intendent and supervisor. The Supreme Court held that ‘‘a common carrier cannot protect himself by special contract from liability from negligenge.. Against his extraordinary liability as a common carrier, he may protect. himaelf vy such an ment, but not from his liability as a simple bailee. It may well be doubted whether the provision in this pass being against accidents ean be held applicable at all to cases where the injury has resulted from negligence. If the free pass in this case was unlawful the conductor should have de- manded the regular fare, and his not doing so did not make O'Hara or his wife tres- passers or destroy their rights as passen- gers.” The lower court’s judgment was confirmed. The World’s London cable letter says although it has been generally understood that the channel tunnel scheme has entirely broken down, ther is good reason to believe the work on it is still being pushed on quietly. Sir Edward Watkin hold ten- aciously to this undertaking. In France the project is looked upon with great approval, and even on this side of the channel it is not unpopular with the masses. Competent military suthorities remain inflexibly opposed to the scheme. ———— .
