of our Western colleges. Everything in
England betokens life.
Be sure the Englishman does not build
castles and abbeys, but what the nine
teenth century demands he builds docks,
wharves, warehouses, &C., without num-
Der. In all that the Englishman does,
even to the noise Of clearing his throat.
he gives evidence of strength. 1t is II /
the land for faint hearts.
One thing is very noticeable among the
people, and that is their total neglect of
each other. Each man shayes, dresses,
eats, walks. and runs Just as he pleases,
and his neighbor pays no attention 20 him,
so long as he is not interfered with and
this is not because Englishmen are trains
ed to neglect, but because each man is
trained to mind his own business. Per-
sonal eccentricities are allowed here. and
no one observes them. Each Islander is
an Island himself, reposing in quiet and
tranquil waters.
1t is very certain that the Englishman
has so much confidence in the power of
his nation, that he cares very little about
any other. Swedenborg, who visited Eng
land frequently during the last century,
and an Italian autEor, who wrote in 1900,
were both quoted in this connection. The
Englishman is handsome, and has always
been soft handsome foreigner comes
among them the people declare it is pity
that he is not a. Englishman. This arr
rogance is his birthright His phrase is
to tell you it is so English" in charac>
ter and the highest praise is to say to an
acquaintance, " 1 should MT know you
from an EngIishman. Now this pride
is admirable in some respects.
The English surpass all others in gene
raj culture-noue are so tremendously de-
veloped. They are quick TO perceive any
meanness in an individual. And it is rea-
sonable that they should have all those
fastidious views which wealth and power
are wont TO generate. But it is not TO be
disguised that there is much in English
culture which will not bear analysis. 1t
is material, built solely upon wealth, cock
neyism, and is most fully exemplified in
boxing, racing, cunning, &c, what are
called true English sports. They are
neat, orderly and respectable, and have
the incest care Of their wines, politics,
guns, &c. But these are trifes. Their
manly forms are attributed TO the exerci~
ses, such as boating, boxing and riding, in
which they indulge from early life. The
attachment to horses among them is al
most universal-ihey are always on horse
back-the hotels are crowded with pic
lures of races. Betting, not without its
uses, causes them TO be very exact in their
data, and settles every thing as fact.

MARY.

Mr.. EpIroR The practice. which
prevails quite extensively, OF feeding roots
to domestic animals, III extreme cold
weather, is, in the opinion of the writer,
ill-Iudged economy.
That carrots, sugar beets, potatoes, and
other roots of this nature, are well a
dapted to promote the health and growth
of animals in mild weather, we do not
doubt: but, that they are OF any material
importance, in the severe and pnching
weather of the coolest months, we think
there is but slight evidence. 1t is gem
erally admitted truth, that usl in proper
lion to the severity of the cold is the de,
mand made upon the vital economy OF the
system. Hence, in very cold weather,
men, as well as animals, require much
larger amount of food, 10 sustain the wants
of their system.
But not only is there greater quantity
required, but the quality needs to be TAI
more stimulating than in mllder weather
In the Artic Regions, no farlnaceous
food ripens but these regions abound III

In Combe's Constitution of Man, we
are told that DR.. Richardson, on being
asked how, accustomed as he was to thu
bread and vegetables of the temperate re
gions, he was able to endure the pure an

while on his expedition to the shores ofth'
Polar Sea, with Capt. Franklin, replied
that the effect of the extreme dry cold, tt
which he and his companions were con

that bread IN such climate, was not onl,

as an article of diet; that pure anima
food, and the fatter the better, was the on

EFFECTS OF IMAGINATION The fol-
lowing anecdote was related by the cello
braied Father Taylor, in a recent lee
ture:
sit happened years ago, in the days Of
old-lasfIioned meeting-housea, with their
pews like pens, and their pulpits perched
ID a, an elevation which placed them with
out the pale of human sympathy, and
when fire for the purpose of warming
church was thing unheard of, that some
enterprising young men, who had worship
ed in such a house, determined to have
the house warmed by stoves. But the
project encountered the most violent OPP
position from al! the old people. They
declared that it should not be f.; that the
stoves were not gospel ordinance that
The congregation must snffocate. The
young men, however, prevailed; and one
Sabbath the congregation beheld in the
church two formidable black stoves, with
pipes traversing the entire length of the
house. The old men and women looked
on with horror, and held their breath fol

proceeded. Soon a lady tainted away

The RHobE ISLAND Cast DECIDED.--This
case, (says the New York Evening Post) which
has excited so much attention and 3sich involved
such grave political consequences has been final
ly decided By the Supreme Court il will be re-
membered that Martin Luther; the plaintiff, Tsas
arrested during The Dorr rebellion, under the OPP
Grafton of martial law which had been declared
by the government Of Rhode Island. lie subse-
qucntIy brought his sirit for damages against the
officers, L. NJ Borden and others, who arrested
him. The officers pleaded their Authority under
the martial law, and the plea sustained by the
Circuit Court for that District. A writ of error
brought the case before the Supreme Court at
Washington, where, it appears, the judgment of
the Court below has been sustained.
The following are the controlling points oftlrcir
decision, as presented by Chief Justice fancy,
who delivered the opinion of the Court
1. That whether the new government, at any
time, displaced the charter government, is poli;
cal question, and not judicial one.
2. That the charter government having at no
time recognized tie new government, but dc
nounccd it as revolutionary and REASONABLE; and
not only opposed it by military force, but prose-
cutcd and convicted Governor Dorr the leader Of
the movement, under the criminal law Of tic
Statc-in which case, and in others the charter
government was sustained by the courts of Rhode
Island-and that the Federal Courts. under an
established rule of decision. follow the State
tribunals on questions arising under its own
laws.
3. That the recognition of the chartered gov

putting down the Instruction, by the power OF
the Union, as provided by the Constitution, is Of
