ROSIN-The rosin market, which
for SO many weeks past has labored
under a continued .lullness, begins to
brighten at the prospect of the COM
ing fall trade and at last has lifted up
its head to more buoyant position.
From the opening of the week there
has existed Il large demand, but hold
ers have been SO persistent in demand
ing advanced rates that the volume of
business has been restricted to some
cxtent-nevertheless making all due
allowances for the retarding feeling
which has existed, the movement this
week has fully equalled, if not sur
passed, that Of last week. The attend
ance of buyers and sellers at the ''Ex-
change was larger than usual and
there was manifested more desire to
a diversity of opinion as regards prices
and on this account very little business
was transacted on the floor of the ''Ex-
change" Outside there was a good
demand for "spots" and cultures" and
the fluctuations and changes of prices
and condition of the marHet at differ
ent periods of the week was rs follows:
On Friday a good enquiry prevailed
for ''spots" and 500 bbls. strained was
sold at s. 40. Futures were also

IT is just little curious that it has
the proper use of words, to derive some
means by which to lift society from the
slough of slang into when it has fallen.
To be sure there are slang and thieves
dictionaries, in which may be found the
explanation of much foreign and many
technical expressions, and from them
VIC learn what it is to :'crack a crib"
or to ''tip daddle." But definitions
are only satisfactory as a measure of
comprehension, and do not, in any way,
furnish that which is needed for the pu-
riiication of our language. What we
want is substitutes for phrases in COM
mon use, so that our representatives i'll
China or Egypt, for instance, shall not
thoughtlessly say to native diplomatists,
"Unless you tumble to this the Home
Government will deem it necessary in
the interests of civilization to put a Man
sard roof Oh you.' TO set the good
cause on it's legs a department might be
set aside in some magazine where all
the slang phrases of the month should
be explained. For instance: ''To tumble
toto acquiesce in the Judgment of;
to recognize the facts; to understand; to
acknowledge. '"ro walk of ON ones
ear"-To turn from with indignation !;
to go off in huff; to get angry (the
origin of this phrase, which is common
ly used in the admonition, "Now, don't
walk ofl." etc., probably is an appeal to
one not to depend simply on the sense
Of hearing, but to keep cool and think
the matter over). "'roo thin"--Trans-
parent; easily.seen through. GA brick"
--One who may be depended upon in an
emergency; Il good-hearted person. This
expression had its rise in what was said
by an ancient Greek law-giver of an
unwalled city when asked where were
the walls--the defences--of the town.
| Pointing to the citizens he said: "Ne did
each of them is q briek.'' There is no
doubt that an incalculable amount of
good might be done by the monthly
publication and explanation of such
dark words as these, and man compe-
tent to edit such department might,
one would think, readily be found in
any of our higher schools and colleges.

IT was certainly very unfeeling of
Judge Hunt that he refused to commit
Miss Susan B. Anthony until her fine
should be paid, and thus deprived her
Of the supreme satisfaction of suffering
martyrdom in Jail. In other respects,
however, his rulings seem to have been
in accordance with law. Miss Anthony's
attorney made three points in her de-
fense-that she was legally entitled to
vote; that if she believed this to be so
and voted in good faith she was inno-
cent of any offence; and that she did
thus vote under conviction that she was
right. Magnanimously waving the OPP
portunity to cite the old woman's de-
Tense in which she said, in reply to a
claim for broken kettle, that "she had
when she borrowed it, and besides it
was whole when she carried it home,"
Judge Hunt contented himself with
holding,in regard to the two lastpoints,
that ignorance was no excuse for vio-
lating the law; and upon the first that
the right 10 vote is one conferred by
the State and not by the Federal Con-
stitution, and therefore not touched by
the Fourteenth Amendment, except so
far as 10 prohibit its denial on eel tain
grounds,..of which sex was not one.
Clearly the friends OF this movement
must, for some time yet to come, content
themselves with efforts to mould public
opinion and not attempt to gain their
desire by shystering tricks, or question:
able technicalities.

To each and every toiler in the busy
strife of life, there come Grear times,
when, burdened and oppressed with
fatigue and care, the mind feels naught
to have been accomplished save that
whichseems all profitless and fruited only
with the bitter ashes of disappointment.
In the pleasant Summer season there
come soft gloamings, when one might
watch, with restful quiet, the cool and
dropping twilight, save for the surging
tide of wearing care that ceaseless beats
within the soul. And so there are some
days when all goes wrong, and the bat
tered heart, SO sorely taxed, longs to
seek a quiet spot, far away from life's
unending war, and rest with folded
hands-not, perchance, that long, eter-
nal rest which brings to all the welcome
words of "Peace, be still," but a
leisure time drop from out the
line OF march and catch a
moments breath in which to rest and
gather strength. The petty trials and
perplexities that throng the common
life may not sweep through as do the
nightly SORROWS which destroy the
choicest blessings, even as storms burst
over field and forest, tearing up alike
the trees with roots far-reaching through
the earth and tender flowers that strive
in vain to bow before the blast-but yet,
rs constant dropping water wears the
granite rock. so these, with certain pow
er, destroy all youthful hope, anticipa-
ton and enjoyment. Few, indeed, are
they who come unscatheu from out the
trial when forced to stand erect beneath
weight of trilling cares and act part
as if the mind were clear and free from
trammeling fear and anxious thought.
Faith, Philosophy, may furnish strength
when Reasons aid is asked, and yet it is
but human for even the brayest soul of
all to yield at times and see the promise
of the future and the blessing of the past
only darkly as through glass.
But, as hill and yale are needed coun-
terparts, so anticipation and sadness and
humility may each be for "a purpose
wise and while the one, through Hope,
incites to eXertion the other prepares
the heart to receive and cherish human
sympathy for the suiferings of those
who still are struggling on in the gloom
of night.

GEN. EDWARD KIRKPATRICK, chief of
the Carlist Committee in London, has
written little volume entitled t'Spain
and Charles the Seventh" In this work
Don Carlos is described as tall, hand
some, and manly, with a thoughtful
countenanee. His frankness and digni-
ty please the Spaniards. General Kirk
patrick claims for his hero the earnest
respect of the clergy, grandees, large
proprietors, and peasantry-who GER
tainly constitute various and goodly
friends whom they love. Don Carlos is
deeply interested and fairly informed on
contemporary political questions. His
wife is limned as of noble and majestic
bearing, with golden hair and deep blue
eyes. Such hair and eyes would con-
stitute her the cynOsure of all other eyes
in Spain, even if she were never Queen,
and if she have in addition to her other
beauties the true Castilian foot-long,
arched and slender-there are Spaniards
who are gallant enough to wish that her
husband might win the throne if for no
other reason than that the Donna Mar
guerita might step upon it.

THAT thoughtfulness which leads to a
consideration of others is too rare a
possession to be really expected and yet
before the thermometer become station
ary among the 'fnineties in the shade"
people ought to recognize the fact that
shaking hands in warm weather is an
impertinence, unless both parties are
glOved. Men and even women may have
hearts of ice, and very agreeable things
they must be in midsummer, but un-
fortunately very few are blessed with
hands of ice. In fact they are apt to be
nnpleasantly moist and dusty clay and
with clammy touch that is terribly
Disseminating. TO ordinary people, all
the love making tolcrable in summer is
that done with eyes and fan-conversa-
tion and correspondence both appearing
weighty exercises to be disposed of in
cool intervals during a season of lake
breezes. Occasionally one will find an
enthusiastic young man who can sit with
his around the back of lady, even on a
hotel balcony, in July weather-but
such an one is fitted to enter i'm compe-
tition with Allegrette's cieberg.

The Swiss correspondent of a paper
has had an interview with Father Hya-
einthe at Geneva. The renowned ex-
friar says he is deeply touched by his
sympathetic reception from the Protes-
tant public of that city, and has hopes of
converting some of the Old Catholics.
He depreciates any attempt to divide his
church into ''moderate'' and 'violent''
partisans. His idea is that all Catholics
must accept Christ, and that they must
as inevitably reject Papal infallibility
and omnipotence. He would rather
sacrifice his reform than one truly
Catholic dogma. In his opinion the
confessional" in the hands of the
Jesuits, has become the most powerful
instrument in existence. Nevertheless,
he desires not its abolition, but its re-
form. He demands the use of the nation
al language in public worship. - These
are his main personal tenets. The cor
respondent regards him as wavering be-
tween love for the old and committal to
the new doctrine, an as being very un-
happy.

A member of the German Parliament
from Bismarck's province, Pomerania,
once defined his theory of the liberty of
the press to be "freedOm tempered by
the gallows." Many of the German
journals avow the conviction that the
new press bill, which has the sanction
OF the Chancellor and the Council, and is
likely to be enacted into law by the I'M
perial Diet, was designed to realize the
ideal of the Pomeranion Deputy. But
their objections to its enactment are re-
plete with reason and are expressed
with great dignity. Bismarck will prob
ably find it easier to push the press bill
into law than to answer the arguments
of editors against it. They aver that in
this measure some of the rights guaran-
teed to all other citizens are expressly
denied to them, and that one of its first
results will be to drive ont of journalism
all men whom intelligence. culture, and
integrity qualify to be leaders in it
They are of opinion also that the recon-
ciliation of individual right with the es-
sential conditions of social life cannot be
defined, established, and enforced by a
measure compounded of gag and confis-
cation. If Parliament cannot yet deter
mine the medium between social neces-
stiles and the just claims of individuals
the ablest of the German editors are con-
vinced that there would be less danger
to church and state in leaving the press
law as it at present exists than in pas
sing the proposed law before an ample
discussion of the question, in the Diet
and out of it, should lave fixed a larger
and more exact basis for the mutual and
reciprocal rights of the press and the
community. F.
