There can be no doubt that daemon of bingos.,
has been • great obstacle to civilised= and the
progress of the world. We can scarcely estimate the
penalty which hes been paid foe the oonfasion of
tongues, sad with all our modern (militias for travel
there are very few infinseese of a counteracting
tendency. Even with our damn neighbours, the
French, we fled It difficult sometimes to steer clear of
seisunderstandings. This la mainly owing to • want of
=Mel scquaictsage caused by diff mime of speech.
In fact we are not In the same ourrent of thought es
tbe Trench, and this le too evident when we attempt
to describe each other's politics, otistoms, or ohar•cter.
Mom than half the wars of pest times would ham
hem prevented if nations hail not boon separated by
linguistic difference. The spread of our language in
America is almost a sure sign of future pesos By the
end of this century it is calculated there will be up-
ward. of • hundred millions of Englishdpeakini people
I. the New and Old Worlds, and the tendency to
frieslehip is being hastened by the increased am-
mania@ between Ow two peoples. No man of any note

Bat for uniformity of speech the interchanges now eo
frequent maid not possibly take place. Will the
bumbled* amongst as be eventually taking their tripe
abroad? Specs is being gradually
and sea voyages are fast losing their terrors.
Doubtless it is one of the happiest features
of our time. Americas' and Englishmen are
not contest with similarity of 'porch and
literature; they must see each other face to fees.
There has been no American for years past who has
oreated • more lively interest amongst Englishmen
than the present Ambassador from the Using. To all
latent. and porpoises he is one of as and we are all
delightsd at the oppoo tunny of loaroottres with so
essueent a mao. (Jut owe misname make themselves

no small degree of satisfaction. He was the first
Englishman who ventured to criticise impartially.
It is not • little to his credit that affemion has
survived dislike. Americans think more of the
genial author than of the critic. We are always
pleased to hew of our eminent men arcesing the
MIAMI& Now World customs, be they ever so
Waage, modify, if they do not remove, many of our
insular ideas. There can be little doubt that the
celebrated tragedian who is now in America will not

possible he may get rid of one or two rather gluing
faults. A new atmosphere, if It be not surcharged
with adulation, is calculated to have • wholemene
effect. not only on domes, bet on judges, statennea,
and literary men. We should like 1112. Bright to make
the American tour, for although by so doing he oonld
eserealy enhance his fame, he would yet obt sin

which for many excelleet mama he has always hold

POOLS.

by horses were also in the precession, and the Wrote
were thronged with sight seers. The evening was,
however, • wretchedly dark, dank, and miserable
and but little could be seen of the display. A few
torches would hays aided greatly to the eclat of the

Another mao, named William Paull, had a narrow
