Early Genius.

In very curious article which James
Sulley has published in last months
Nineteenth Century he adduces evidence
which seems to establish not only that
precocity is not necessarily sign of dis
ease, but that exceptional capacity, espe
cially if it is of the original kind which
comes within the scope of the word "ge
MUS, is very apt to be precocious. He
shows that out of 2S7 great musicians,
artists, scholars, poets, novelists, men of
science, and philosophers, Isl, or four
ffths, were precocious children, giving
signs of their unusual capacity in their
special line of thought long before they
were 20-indeed, in some cases before
they had emerged from comparative in
fancy. Mozart was exhibited as a plan
ist before he was FIVE, and Memberships
first cantata was written at eleven while
Beethoven at nine had outgrown his
fathers musical teaching Raphael was
scholar in the studio at II; Titan paint
ed Madonna at the same age; Morland
was an accepted portrait-painter, highly
paid by his customers, at To- Landseer
exhibited his pictures at ID; and Flax.
man carved busts at Is. Goldeni at s
sketched out comedy; Calderon wrote a
play at IA; Goethe was a poet at Is;
Beaumont composed tragedies at II, and
Crowleys epic, written at 10, is said to
be IAN astonishing feat of imaginary pre-
cocity." Scott invented stories at u;
Dickens was a charming reconteur, the
delight of his companions, at 9, and Char
lotte Bronte wrote stories, as well as po-
ems and plays, at IA. Grotius was a
scholar at u; Person could repeat the
whole of Horace and Virgil before he
was Is, and Macaulay at s put together
compendium of universal history. New
ton was mechanician at school; Lap
lace, while mere lad, was mathemati-
cal teacher; Pascal at Is invented CAL
culating machine, and Leibnitz thought
out difficult philosophic problems before
he was Is. These are some selections
from much longer lists, and, as in many
cases the capacity must have appeared
and have escaped either notice or record,
we may take it that with men of.genius
precocity, sometimes Of the most unusual,
occasionally of an almost miraculous
kind, has been a rule.-London SDecta-
tor

The Christian Union takes note of the
important fact that the first train over the
Canadian Pacific Railway was despatched
from Montreal on Monday, July 5th:
At present the schedule time between
Halifax and Vancouver is 1876 hours.
The Canadian press predict that the pas
sage will soon be made in ninety hours.
The Canadians intend to have the fastest
line OF ocean steamers and the fastest
transcontinental railway, so that Van
couver and Liverpool shall be only nine
or ten days apart. The distance from
Lake Superior to the Pacific is about g.
900 miles. Most of the territory through
which the new road passes is reported to
be exceedingly fertile, but is still almost
entirely unsettled There are, of course,
innumerable paper cities on the line OF
the railway. The loyal Canadians pre-
dict that these will soon become flourish.
ing industrial centers. Political econo.
mists and anti-monopolists have attacked
the Canadian Government for the ire
mendous subsidies which it has given to
this road. They have said that it was
the investment of millions of capital
which for years would be without return
They have said that the Government was
taxing the people for the enrichment of a
corporation. Our own Northern Pacific
is reported to have cost S73,OOOOOO.
Canada granted to its railroad $25 OOO,-
600, and 100000 acres of land. The
price of the alternate sections retained by
the Government is $3.50 per acre. Thus
the total grant was upwards of S75,OOO,-
600. 1t was certainly gigantic enter
prise for country whose population is
less than that of the State of New York.
Sir John Macdonald and the Conservative
party did not wish that the different parts
of Canada should be dependent upon the
United States for railway connections,
and the building of the Canada Pacific
was part OF vigorous national policy,
Of which we have recently heard so much.
II Sir Johns prophecies are fulfilled if
this road shall soon create its own traffic
by turning the tide OF immigration to-
ward the western districts of Canada, his
statemanship will be indicated.
