The idea of a general Shaksrearean
comMemoration is one in which the bet
ter class of American citizens will take
especial interest. We feel sure that it will
be universally honored, and that it's influ-
ence will be Of the most refining and ele-
waiting character. 1t will create q desire
with the coming generation to read the
works of Shakespeare and to see them ably
represented. The annual festivals in the
principal cities, on the 23d of April, will
call forth the best and wisest men of the
nation, they will meet the good and great
Of the stage, and each will learn the true
value of the other. 1t is quite time that
he men and women who give character to
the dramatic profession were more titly
recognized. The day has long gone by
for press or pulpit to underrate the posi-
ton and power of the drama. A national
Shakespeare day" would do much toward
correcting the false impressions that still
finger in some minds.
"The pulpit orator may lift his eyes,
nd with his finger pointing to the skies
llurl forth his thunder on the actor race.
And call the playhouse most sinful place,
Yet, let the preacher and the church remain,
Io lead the soul to heaven, and to gain
Rich ccnquests over wickedness and sin
The outward signs Of excellence within
Shall we condemn the church, that those who teach
=" not precisely practice what they preach,
Belize there bad men in the church
As ever LETT the erring in the lurch:
And on the stage, perhaps there good
As ever earned a poor old mothers food.
Then let the drama follow on her course,
Rebuking foley, showing the remorse
IN vice attendant, and the earthly pain
That ever breeds where crime hath left stain.
Religion and the dran,a handfn hand,
Might spread doclity throughout the land.
TINS OF the soul, the other Of. the mind,
Be thus the mission Of the two combined

II. W. B., ON INrEsEsr.-No blister
draws sharper than interest does. OF all
industries none is comparable to that of
interest. 1t works all day and night, in
fair weather and foul. 1t hasn no sound in
its footsteps, but travels fast. 1t gnaws
ut mans substance with invisible teeth.
1t binds industry with its film, as fly is
hound in spiders web. Debts roll q
man over aud over, binding hand and
foot, and letting him hang upon the fatal
mesh until the long-legged interest doyours
him. There is but one thing on farm
like it, and that is the Canada thistle,
which swarms new plants every time you
break its roots, whose blossoms are prolific,
and every flower the father of million
seeds. Every leaf is an awl, every branch
a spear, and every plant like platoon of
bayonets, and field of them like an
armed host. The whole plant is tor
ment and o vegetable curse. And yet a
farmer had better make his bed of Canada
shistles than attempt to be at ease upon
interest.

that he could not, as he was busy writing

LEARNED LADlEs.-Miss Maria Mitchell,
has been made Professor Of Astronomy by
Vassar College. Heaven help her husband
it she ever secures one. Learned wo-
men meyer make good housewives. We
have known many such women in our day
both in this country and in Europe, but
not solitary one happy in her domestic
relations. Not one. The moment you ed
ucate one of the sex up to the standard Of
rare distinction, you unfit her for domestic
duties, you unfit her for her proper family
position. She must wed milksop and be-
come the head of the family herself,or else
her married life will be perennial scene
Of quarrel, petty chickering's and acute no
tons. A learned woman may be happy
as an old maid; she never can be as wife
and mother. It is pity, but it is the
truth.

End OF Four Great Men.

Flu VI TOuE UE60U m6us
The four conquerers who occupy the
most conspicuous places in the history Of
the world are Alexander, Hannibal, Ce-
sar and Bonaparte.
Alexander, after having climbed the
dizzy height of his ambition, with his tenn
Piles bound with ehaplets dipped in the
blood of millions, looked down upon .
conquered world, and wept that there was
no other world for him to conquer, set
city on fire. and died in a scene of debauch.
Hannibal, after having. to the astonish-
mont and CONSERVATION Of Rome, passed
the Alps, and having put to flight the ar
mics of the mistress of the world, and
stripped "three bushels Of gold rings from
the fingers of her slaughtered Knights"
and made her foundations quake, fed
from his country, being hated by those
who once exultingly united his name to
that of their god, and called him Hanni-
Baal and died ut last by poison admins
tered by his own hand, unlamented and
unwept, in a foreign land.
Cesar, after having conquered 500 cities
and dying his garments in the blood of
one million of his foes, after having pur-
saed to death the only rival he had on
earth, was miserably assassinated by those
he considered his nearest friends, and in
that very place the attainment Of which
had been his greatest ambition.
Bonaparte, whose mandates, kings and
popes obeyel, after having filed the earth
with the terror of his name after having
de!uged Europe with tears and blood and
clothed the world in sackolotb, closed his
days in lonely punishment, almost literally
exiled from the world, yet where he cod

SAN DoMrSGo.-As an evidence Of the des.
perate strait in which the administration finds
itself upon the San Domingo affair. ID has been
given out to the public that the administration
has received reliable news that in case the
treaty with the Usited States 10 not ratifed BY
the Senate. some European power has offered
$1,000, 600 for the Bay Of SANTANA. The aaxiety
to see the treaty ratified and the lobbying done
by Grant in the Senate can be easily accounted
for. The treaty provides that the United
States shah assume the public debt OF San Do
iningo, which is in the millions somewhere. and
the securities have been bought up by promi-
nent Radicals ct about one cent on the dollar.
Should the Senate ratify the treaty they would
make fine speculation on San Domingo stock.
Grant has evidently been investing to some ex-
tent. as he evinces more anxiety about the mat
: ter than he has about any other measure dur.
ing his administration. = s..s r.s. ...

He was the pioneer of Episcopacy in the West,

which was included in his diocese. His funeral
was attended by nearly all the Bishops of the

FENIaN INVASION. -The Fenian invasion oi
Canada. in spite of the formidable proportions
il at one time assumed, has terminated in a
miserable farce. The Fenians are making
their way homo through the assistance OF
friends, and appear from all accounts to be
thoroughly disguised with the idea of invading
Canada either now or hereafter. Ii is claimed
that O'Neil acted contrary TO orders, or ut
least against the wishes OF tho Brotherhood
and that the movement was premature. Some
such excuses are always TO be had. and the fact
that the Order in the United States appears to
be divided upon the policy OF ever making u
movement against Canada. will probably pre-
vent any such attempts in tho future. II they
