The War in Europe.

1
There is not much change in financial mat
tiers, though some active business people are
looking for advantages here as the results OF
a war between Russia and Turkey. Adyau-
tages that come from the destruction and
waste Of the product Of labor are of doubtful
quality and of very uncertain tenure. Weare
told how many bushels Of grain we shall be
called upon to send TO Europe to take the
| place Of wheat usually forwarded by Russia
and Turkey, but no one stands by to tell us
how much this wheat sent TO Europe will n-
crease the cost to 10000 900 Of people in the
| United States, nor how much il will arrest
our exports of cotton petroleum, and Of all
that belongs to peaceful and legitimate
commerce. Weigh the two in balances, and
wholly apart from all the certain wretched
consequences Of war, and II will be found
no Government, however near or remote, is
the gamer. War is Mt enInity with all the
economies of true civilization, its material
effect being TO derange business, TO remove
confidence, 90 create debt, to increase taxes,
to arrest enterprise, to say nothing Of the kill.
ing and wounding Of tens Of thousands Of
people, with lifelong disease, orphanage,
widOwhood and all the attendants on war. II
would require n great deal of material bene-
fit, for an offset 10 all this, but, as we have
said, the demand for breadstuffs abroad is
offset by increased cost to consumers at home
and by interference with other branches Of
the trade. Wehave been very boastful of our
exports, the past year, ofSlj3, OOO, 900 in ex.
cess of our imports, but five count the seeu,
rites sent back TO the United States we
should have to make the balance in our favor
n good deal under $4,000, 900, instead of
100000 900 claimed. We must count both
the drawbacks OF war as well as its income to
get at the bottom facts. 1t is sincerely hoped
that we may find an active export demand for
all our surplus products, but no right thinking
Christian man can desire to see market
made by the horrors Of war. There was
never any real business advantage in the
wasteful destruction of life and property

Rest my child in Jesus love,
Thy body in the tomb,
Thy spirit with the Saints above
Until the Saviour come.
Then in beauty shalt thou rise,
Arrayed in robes divine;
To meet thy kindred in the skies.
And with the Angels shine.
No more shall aching pains annoy,
No longer shalt thou grieve;
But thine is an eternal JOY
With Jesus now to live.
Dear little lamb we loved thee,
How much no tongue can tell;
With throbbing heart we watched to see
And thought that all was well.
God loved thee too, my child,
And with hand Of love
Reached down so lovingly and mild
And bore thy soul above.
