A THOUGHT children accustomed
from infancy to hear uotE6ng but correct
conversation, there would be but little need
of their learning arbitrary rules Of Gram
would naturally speak and write
correctly. Hence It IS that children of
educated parents are generally So much
more easy and graceful IN their conversa-
ton, than the children Of the unedu.
cated.-Our language, like our manners,
is taught from those with whom we asso.
ciate; and if we would have the Young
improve in this important part Of educa.
ton, we must be careful that they hear
no tHlgafisnis from US. Parents and
teachers cannot be too particular in their
use oflanguage in the presence of imita-
tive children. Pestalozzian.

New York, JAN. 3, 1898.
The cloud has burst in the West, and all il
wild and ominous
The steamboat Caroline, at Schlosser, on thu
american side, filled with vsiters whom curiosi.
ty had tempted to visit Navy Island, was at
tackled in the night of December 29th by 100 to
$50 armed men in five boats, who approached
the steamer with muffled oars, unsuspecting any
attack, and all On board asleep, it is said. The
attacking force gave three cheers for 'Victoria,
which alarmed the people, when scuffle and
a fight ensued, the British, however, succeed
ing in obtaining complete mastery of the boat
Twenty-Five lives were lost somehow or other
and as the people on shore rushed to the rescue
they were fired upon, and one man was killed
whose body was taken to Buffalo. The steamboat
after the capture, was set on fire, towed into the
stream, and the dead and wounded aOent ouer NJ
agara Falls.
All this has created in western New York
particularly the frightful end of the scene, fury
it is almost impossible to restrain. The military
are called out. Buffalo is full of armed men

announces in postscript, that the British force.

The Montreal Herald publishes extracts from
the private correspondence found among the pa
pers of DIR. Wolfred Nelson at St. Dennis. One
of the letters is from PApINAU, under date Of the
7h ult., and of this we translate an extract which
may throw some light on the views and expecta-
tons Of the Patriots.
''The agitation commences in Upper Canada
The discomfort there is deeply seated The re-
formers are persuaded that although they are in
great numerical majority, the unequal distribu-
ton of representation, in which the small towns
elect representatives than the large counties,
and which thus enables the Executive to purchase
an apparent majority in the Legislature against
the actual majority in the country, irritaes them
so deeply that should not be surprised if they
should rush into an earlier resistance than is
generally anticipated. | see that with them, as
with us, without concert and without compari-
son Of views, their young men are procuring
arms, and accustoming themselves to their use.
They wish to send deputation of seven mem
bers to convention; or, they call it, Congress
of the two Provinces, in which they should pre-
pare project of purely democratic constitution,
and tell England that this is what we must have
under her administration, if we have iustce-and
independently of her if she will not concede it.
As for myself, am of opinion that our plan of
non-consumption and agitation, which will render
the expenses of the colony more burdensome to
England by the necessity of an increased military
force, and the diminution of her commerce, is by
far the best policy to pursue for the present Con-
tinue to push it as vigorously as you can."
