the friendly sentiment towards France
has not had the largest part in the objec-
tons TO German conquest. We do not
deny that Germany may be justified in
acquiring territory, especially territory
which was once German but there can
hardly he "a doubt of the effect on the
French people, and consequently on Eu-
rope generally. Unless France be crushed
morally as well as in military strength, it
is but too probable that the first day of

reproached for saying Yes, we cannot
doubt as to the line of conduct which will
be adopted by a consistently selfish person.
Of course, if we are to argue the ques-
ton on a different hypothesis, the c%onclu-
sion will be different. If a man really
wishes to give such advice as may do
some good to other people, he must take
the consequences of his eccentric taste
He will have few consultations, except
those which result from agood onscience
or from the less worthy gratificationpf

one suggestion for his guidance if he PEI.
sistS in committing himself to so rashA
course of conduct. He should remember
above all things The Johnsonese aphorism,
that though you can provide a mand with
arguments, YOU cannot provide him with
reasoning powers. Y,u may do him some
good by completing or correcting his in
formation, but it IS very unlikely that YOU
viii materially alter the way in which he
reasons upon facts already known. Now,
rs most people who ask for advice with
any serious expectation of taking it must
of necessity be foolish, ana as a foolish
person is just as likely to 90 wrong when
his information i SQUAD rs when it is err
r%oneous, it follows that the sphere open
to.the adviser is remarkably limited. One
may succeed in keeping a man straight by
making him fee! that he is ridiculous, or
by encouraging him in moments Of depres-
sion but the administration of downright
raw good advice, the unqualified remark
Do this or Don't do that, is about as pro-
ftIess an expenditure of human energy as
can easily be devised.

The hair is sold in England at prices vary

manufacture of silks for mixing purposes,

is extremely hardy, and very prolific. The
kids make excellent mutton, and their
management is easy. They require shear

CORA is covered with fine silky hair all
over the body, sides of the head, and back,
and in addition is generally judged by the
absence of kenny or coarse hair. The
feeces of young animals are the most val
liable in quality. The pen exhibited
showed considerable merit, especially the
eve, but the fleece shows evident mis-
management in its culture. The skins
properly dressed make beautiful mats for
carriages, and the leather is superior to

GOOD ADVICE
(Saturday Reui6U. J

. a young gentleman VINO Is ABOUT 10
perpetrate an i%mprUdent marriage gene
rally thinks it right 10 fortify himself by
the opiDions OF at least a few of his inI-
mate friends, and the advice is generally
taken aud given without any perceptible
smile appearing on the countenanCes OF
the parties to the conference. Whenever
IN a|@pirant to poetlcal honours is about
to plunge into print he becomes d nuisance

TO be capable of counting the number of

be lenient to the verge of idiocy, or that
must be Singularly lnsincere; or, finally,
which is probably the closest %approxima-
ton to the truth, that in never produces
any effect whatever.
Meditatlng upon these things, an intel
ligent man must often ask himself, what
is the proper course of conduct to the
pursued under the circumstances ? When
YOU are asked TO advise a man who has
suffered from several attacks of del5rium
trtmens TO %cOntine himself in future to
toast and water, is it better to go through
the solemn farce, or to reject it at once
and earn the character Of careless cynic7
When an educated gentleman asks you
whether you think that it will on the
whole be conducive TO his happiness that
he shall marry his cook, or. when a poor
author-invokes you as an oracle to divine
the chances of his making his fortune by
the publication of an epic poem, what is
the line of advice which is most likely to
conduce to his and your own peace of
mind? Looking at the matter from a pure
ly selfish point ofview, there can ofcourse
be little room for doubt. To persons
about to marry, you should always say,
Do! Marry your cook by all means !;

this part of the reasoning aloud, the ad-
vice is in nine cases out of ten nothing
but the echo Of your own predetermined
course. Asking advice is merely q branch
of the art known as fishing for compli-
ments, or, in other and less offensive
language, it is merely one method Of ap-
pealing for symDatEv. The advisee has
made nm his mind to take the plunge.
and is pretlv certain to take il under all
circumstances at any rate, if he does not
take it, the flilure Will not be due to any
hostile advice he NAV have received. In
deed, the best chance of deterring him
from action, if lie PROPOSES TO adopt ONE
very eccentric course Of conduct, is 10 re-
commend it As The most natural thing IN
the world, und thereby deprive il of some
part Of lis charm TO the imagiuatiou. The
nencral case. however, is that the applI.
cant is sill shiveriug on the brink, feeling
rather uncomfortable but quite dtttrmin-
ed and tn. only question is whether. in
the Itueuarc of baihers, he sbaI! make a
header calamity, or sneak in miserably,
and perhaps fall PROSTATE in the attempt
with much suffering and many pitcous
0utcrieS. 1t cannot be doubted that, ifa
thing is to he done, it is best done deci-
siveIv and that The only course which re-
mains to the friends of = man Determined
to rush violently down a steep place is to
clear the path as much as possible, and
to take care that al least he Shall be spared
the paags which result from hesitation.
There is, indeed, one cause Of doubt
which occasionally harnesses the adviser in
such cases. He has d weak desire to
evade responsibility, and has a natural
