In HIS sermon on the Sunday prece d.
ing the anniversary of Washington's
birth, James Freeman Clarke, of Boston,
indicated four men as the great charac-
ters Of American history. These were
Washington, representing virtue in poll
tics; Franklin, representing good sense
in politics; Jefferson, representing de-
mocracy in politics; and Lincoln, repre-
senting humanity in politics. We con.
slider this sound discrimination. We
have no substitute to make for any one
OF them. These four men stand out
so clearly above all others of our history
that no one can mistake them; and in
spite of the cavils of many who now live,
Lincoln will occupy the place in history
which Mr.. Clark has indicated. In
further describing these characters Mr.
Clarke said, that Jefferson was the
greatest genius, Franklin the greatest
intellect, Lincoln the most marked
product of American institutions, and
Washington the greatest character.

The opening of the Suez Canal has led
to considerable extension of the
Egyptian territory, and that Govern
ment is at the present time in posses
sion of the whole of the seaboard on the
western side of the Red Sea. At Masso-
wah, which is now regular port of call
for the Kbedive's steamers, being the
basis for the operations carried on with
the view of bringing the rich countries
about the sources OF the Nile under the
Egyptian dominion, an aqueduct is in

bringing fresh water from the hills in

RAILWAY STATISTICS.

The Railway Commissioners of Massa-
chusetts have made ar interesting eX-
hibit for that State. Including sidings
and double track of 626 miles, the total
length of track is 3,7O1 miles, owned by
sixty corporations. The cost of the
roads including equipment has been
$4,000 per mile, which is represented by
$3S, 400 Of capital stock and $4,000 OF
debt.
Seven persons are employed to each
mile, and over it have passed during the
year 3,262 passenger and 3OG7 freight
trains. The total earnings of the roads
for the year were $34,632, ,4s3, which is
only four-ffths OF one per cent. less than
for the previous year-showing that the
panic has not very much injured the rail.
way business except as to the regular
annual increase under the ordinary pros.
perity of general business.
The expense account Of railways in
Massachusetts is very heavy, since the
net income for 1874 was only $40, ,7O3, 3O2-
showing about.70 per cent. Of gross re.
,eipts for expenses. The dividends av-
T. araged per cent. on the entire stock.
The cost per mile of running passenger
trains was $l,156, and $1,144 for freight
trains. The whole number of persons
carried by rail during the year was
l2, ,4s0, 900, of whom only one was killed
and seven injured. Each passenger rode
an average of 10 miles, so that a passen

miles. Employees on the trains are
more exposed. OF these, POI were killed
against 34G for the previous year, and
TAO injured against 1881 for 1878. AS to
the cost Of moving ton Of freight per
mile, the companies say that 1t can not
be determined; but 1t is their opinion
that on road Of sufficient length, with
easy grades, perfect equipment, with
coal on the line, plenty of traffic, and
devoted exclusively to freight, there is
no doubt but the cost may be as low as
water carriage.

The average number of cigars smoked
in the United States each 'twenty-four
hours reaches the colossal aggregate of
s, l6S,0 900. The smoker not only pays for
his enjoyment but he contributes heavi-
ly 10 the support of the Government,
which could hardly get along now with
out the tobacco revenue. For instance,
during the last fiscal year $6, 150, ,060 Al in
gold duties was derived from imported
cigars, and $33, 242,S75 so in currency
from taxes on domestic cigars and to-
bacco, or grand total of $39, ,392, 1886 03.
Here is an annual revenue nearly equal
to 81 per capita of the population Of the
country, women and children Included.

GODS WAITING.

Grand is the leisure Of the earth;
She gives her happy myriads birth,
Ana after harvest lears not denrth,
But goes to sleep in snow wreaths dim.
Dread is the leisure up above,
The while He sits whose name Is Love,
AND waits, as Noah did the dove.
To see il she would fly to him,
He waits for us, while, houseless things,
We beat about with bruised wings
On the dark floods and water springs,
The ruined world, the desolated sea;
With open windows from the prime,
All night, all day, He waits sublime,
Until the fullness Of the time
Decreed from His eternity.

THE case of Carl Vogt, the Belgian
murderer and robber, is again before the
United States Commissioner inNew ork
When it was ascertained that we had nc
extradition treaty with the Belgian Gov
ernment, one was not only negotiated,
but an extra back-acting clause thrown
in to meet this very case. Vogt's coun-
sci now hold that this clause must be de-
cided imperative just as any other e1
DO st tacto lew, and that there is still nc
power to take the murderer of Chevaliel
de Bianco to Belgium for trial. The
case will of course be again appealed
and there is no telling but Vogt ma!
