the arts OF peace. lie has abIiCatcd his
throne and sold his birthrgh; for i mess
OF poitage. Just in proportion as Chris
tiamty has put down tie vices of man
and taught himself government. has he in
his turn subiugated the forces and elements
about him. And Yet he has only taken
the onfposts and frontiers Of his domain,
ana there remalneth much land TO he pos
sessed lie has only entered the vestibUle
of the sanctuary of nature. Her iuneTmost
wells have not yet been lifted. The forces
he has slibdued are only partially tanned,
only lmperiectly broken TO harness. His
best steam engine wastes 80 per cent OF the
power OF the steam, and his most perfect
mechanical conJrivance loses by friction
one-hall ot the power applied. Who can
doubt that the next fifty years Will witness
tar greater u1umphs OF mechanical and
inventive skill than the last fifty have seen.
LAese wonders are bat prophecy "nd
hlht ol the SOlUuon Ot natures ultimate
secrets ana the uulizatIon OF her forces
which are III store for mankind. As the
dreams OF the past are the actuaitles OF the
present. SO the achievements OF the tu-
ture Will surpass our widest flights OF
