—a volume In which the sister arts of poetry and painting are
so fitly represented ; and, therefore, it cannot be too strongly

Capital and Trade of British Settlers in India, and has created
the present disastrous condition of -incendiarism and insur-

THE PRESENT DIST ft ESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. G R OSSMITIPS
" GOVERNMENT UPON YLEST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 18E0. The Crisis is st band. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim tor ture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must anim ati all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Con stitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's " Gcrref •nment upon First Prin-
ciples."

mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving

beneficial. I'ersons deprived of sleep, or even lying down for
fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in a few minutes

MR. NOBLE'S BUST OF CROHIVELL.

well-known mask taken upon the real face after Crom-
well's death; which mask, however reliable for the shape
and proportions of that fallen and marred visage from which
the mighty soul had fled, could scarcely have served,
without the aid of those portraits from the life, to give vs
any notion of the man's proper countenance as he looked to
the world's eyes 200 years ago. Combining these with
several other sources of information, we have a most pre-
possessing and, in our judgment, a characteristic figure of
him who was not only our uncrowned monarch, Protector,
Dictator, Dodge, Captain, or President, but also the stout
and large-hearted Englishman, Oliver Cromwell, whose
memory is worthy of immortal gratitude and respect. Of
him, or of another person, the modern evangelist of hero-
worship, has touchingly though so quaintly said, "he
was our brother, and a good, not a bad man." And
moreover as a great one, his remembrance should be
freshly and vividly kept in our sight. It is a dutiful and
laudable care to preserve by diligent study, and by the
imaginative, divining, and restoring power of art, the visible
lineaments of his once mortal body. That face which kin-
dled with noble enthusiasm to deliver England and the
Christian community from the civil and spiritual bondage
then threatening both the State and the Church—that front
which bore the furrow's of huge anxiety and labour, and
which was seamed with the blaze of battle for the sake of
our commonwealth—which baffled all treasons and brow-
beat all enemies of this country as long as Cromwell lived,
could beam with mild good-humour on his nearest and most
trusty companions. In this mood we seem to find him in the
bust which will probably soon be exhibited to public view.
