900 miles of telegraph in this coun-
try.

ocean steamship afioat. Now the

amounted to more than $1,000, ,000,-
900.

HINDU AND CHINESE CIVIL
IZATION.

Never did opposing qualities and
defects establish a wider gulf be-
tween two races. During the 1000
OF 5000 years which make up her
history China offers us the unique
spectacle, as it il seems to me, of
society founded upon a purely hu-
man basis, without prophet, without
messiah, without revealer, without
mythology; of society calculated
for temporal well-being and the good
organization of this world, and for
nothing else. India on the other
hand, shows us not less surprising
spectacle of a race exclusively spec
ulative living by the ideal, building
its. region and its literature in the
clouds, without any intermingling ell
ements drawn from history or reality.
The characteristic feature of the Chi
nese mind is negation of the super
natural; what it canEot understand
does not exist for it. India, on the
contrary, absorbed in the contcmpla-
tion of the infinite, has exhausted
her activity in the creation of an ex-
huberant mythology and of innumer-
able systems of metaphysics. Nor
has the study of nature, of man or
of history ever seemed to her worthy
to check her thought for an instant.
China is indisputably, of all coun-
tries, that which possesses the best
ordered and the most abundant
archives. Since the twelfth century
before the christian era she stored
up, dynasty by dynasty, and almost
year by year, the official documents
of her history, the DEGREES of her SOW
ereigns, the rules of her administra-
ton. India, SO prodigiously fruitful
in everything else, has not line of
history. She has reached modern
times without believing that the real
is ever worth writing down. This
present life is for the Chinese the
only aim of human activity. For the
Indian it is but an episode in series
of existences, a passage between two
eternities. On one side you have
bourgeois and reasonable race, narrow
as common sense is narrow; on the
other race devoted to the infinite
dreamy, absorbed and lost in its own
imaginations. Nor are the physical
characteristics of both less strikingly
contrasted. The bright, oblique eye,
the fat nose, the short neck, the cum
ming look of the Chinese indicate the
man of common sense well trained in
the affairs of this world; the noble
outline of the Indian, his slim figure,
his broad, calm brow, his deep, tran
quill eye show US race made for
meditation and destined, even by its
very errors, to provide US with a
measure of the speculative power of
humanity.-Macmiua,s's Magazine.
