hfe and happiness from the land the right OF ALL
aud If there were any barrier In the way the
attention OF the people should be directed to its
moval. The landowners OF the country numbered
but so O00 and while In 1900 the land was taxed TO
the amount OF CO. 100000. the rent received by
the landed aristocracy being E22 800 600, in 1869
the rent received had increased to over G68 000
while the taxes paid had decreased TO 81, 100, ,000
In consequence of the redemption OF the land
tax Referring to Mr.. Mn's statement that the
landed aristociacy had grown rich while they
slept" Mr. Bradaugh said that II was not so, for
the heads OF families being provided for by the law
OF primogeniture and entail, the arlstocracy had
provided for the younger sons in other ways out OF
the country's earnings. The rights OF property in
land were different from those in possessions 0c
uuired by labor and those who owned land now had
no right to shut II up for pleasure when It would
produce grain for the starving millions. He advo-
Gated reform Ia the land aws-frstly, because they
had il in their power to reform them secondly, be-
cause 1t was lawful; thirdly. because whether It was
lawful or not they could do It, meaning thereby that
the happiness OF the nation was higher than mere
legal right. The fact that England is monarchi-
cal government was Denied the government being
that OF landed aristocracy. He did not advocate
the equal distribution OF land but he asked tnat the
cutvator OF the SOIL should share In the profits Of
his labor
eulogium OF Mr. Gladstone closed the lecture.
A vote OF thanks was given TO the lecturer, and
other speeches Terminated the proceedings.

PHILLIP PHILLIPS CONCERT. This

and it was filed. People GO TO heal
Philip Philips sing with hearts iui
of sacredness. Under the influence
of his soft melody Of eloquence
speaking IN tone, in expression, as
well as in music, they nestle down
into their seats and hold their breath.

would clap their hands and stamp
their feet. So it was last mig ght- -
The concert can certainly be pro-

The SINGING PILGRIM Last eve.
ming Mr.. Phillips, "the Singing
Pilgrim,'' gave another OF his pleas
ant entertainments at Netiier Chapel,
which was filed in every part. The
word ''entertainment" may, perhaps,
be objected to as implying light
and frivolous sort OF thing. Mr..
Phillips evening of song, however,
is not that, though it is strictly an
entertainment, for the, attention OF
his auditory is engaged throughout.
His singing is that which comes from
and goes to the heart. In an opera
one hears dramatic singing; ballads
and lyrics have their style; but the
rarest style, perhaps to be met with
is truly devotional style. Do our
church and chapel choirs possess it?
There is 10 hypocrisy about MIR.
Phillips, and he proves how grand
and heart stirring a hymn may be
come when the singing is not only
with the voice but with tue heart and
the understanding. A little bit Of
his heart is in every one of his full
sonorous notes, and it en-
ters in at the ear Of his hearers and
drops into their hearts, and estab,
fishes a sympathy with the singers
deep devotional feeling. Listening
to him, one can comprehend how, as
in Mrs. Hemans's noble lines, the
Pilgrim Fathers, "on the bare New
England strand" found the strains
Of their old English psalmody sufii
cient to express the deepest and
emotions. "Compared with
these, italian trills are tame" We
are only sorry that this sweet-singing
pilgrim will set out on his pilgrimage
giving US a third, or
even fourth, fifth, or sixth of his
delightful evening of sacred song

Look out. Sportsmen.

A subscriber of the JEFF, not
very far from town, complains that
he is much annoyed by young men
from this place, who overruns his
farm for the purpose of shooting,
trapping and netting game, even dis
charging their firearms in front of
his dwelling and annoying him in
many ways. He and his neighbors
propose to unite and abate the nui-
sance by due process of law. Our
friend means to do just as he says in
this matter, and is perfectly right in
so doing. Look out, young Nimrods.
