TINS LECTURE of the Rev. w. Nj. BLAcKBURN.
on Monday evening last. needs no commendation
at our hands. The productions Of that gentle
man before our citizens have both been emf
neptly successful, and have elected warm aud
general commentator. The impression OF the
first was SUCH as to make the wish of com
mon one, to hear him again, aud the gathering
on Monday evening was greater than the ca
pacity of the hall, and some we're obliged TO
go away unable to procure an entrance. The
lecture filled an hour, aud the attention Of the
audience showed no relaxation throughout the
delivery. The theme - Life Studies = is an
ample one, and afforded full scope for the play
of the Imagination, aud the more attractive
features Of composition. Its chief excellence
was 10 the aptuess and force Of his comparisons
and illustrations. The lecture aboundcd in
wholesome lessons, calculated TO jog the indus
try, and direct the energies Of those who are
entering upon life and engaging in the work of
shapeng their own destiny.

suits of the late war in Europe:
/. The treaties OF 1915 are annulled.

4. The friends Of Sardinia get forgiveness for
manifesting their friendship, and the privilege Of
returning u the dominion Of tyrants, whom the
events of the past ninety days supposed to have
made honest, Wise merriful and jus'.
5. Austria loses one disaffected province, but

Z. Louis Napoleon gains military renown.
He loses his reputation for tenacity of purpose

for foresight and the prestige of Cnvsrying
He has converted an enthusiastic friend into
sullen dependant; he has made Italians, Hungari.

deprived himself Of the aid Of the Liberals in any
future struggle.
He has offended England, and inspired her with
distrust and he now stands alone feared by some,
hated and cursed by many, and loved and trusted

quarters Of the fiscal year just ended, and sppends
the amount which was estimated for by the Secre

condition Of the country, just emerging from
