The English have, from time imme-

and their asccndancy among nations Is
attributed by themselves and others, to
nothing so much as TO this fact. These
it is which have largely made and
preserved English health, endurance
and vigor; and that which they have
done for the old country they may be
relied upon TO effect for tho new.

almost disease-proof, and well nigh

vOiCELESS IMAGES.

without Them Nothing Can Bo Done In
Fields of Thought.
Images are repetitlons of sensation,
endowed with all its mental wealth,
and consciously reproduced from the
stores OF memory. Both in their own
nature andin this very work of repro
duction all true imagery is bathed in
the light of a thousand concepts.
Hence ii is that without images we can
do nothing in the fields OF thought,
whilst with images we can mentally do
all things which it is given us to do.
The very highest and most abstract
concepts are seen and handled by our
intellects in the form OF voiceloss i'm
agery. How many are the concepts
reused in us by the forms and by
the remembered images, OF the
human countenancep Love and good
ness, purity and truth, benevolence
and devotion. firmness and justice,
authority and command, these are u

ideas which may be presented and

we'll do the poets know this. Their
whole skill and art may be said to lie

al e. Robbins. treasurer of the
company, said with regard to the divi-
dend that it had been declared on the
advice of the late Sidney Bartlett
shortIey before his death. It was, he
said, a cash dividend. The company
had q surplus of % ,O00, 900 above its
capital for which the stockholders
had nothing to show and
this course had been taken that they
might have some evidence of their prop
erty. The capital stock had been in
creased to the extent of The cash diVi-
dend and those of the stockholders who
wished could take the cash they re-
ceived in dividends and purchase new
stock at par in pro rata proportion
to what they already held. It was not
a stock dividend. The other million
dollars surplus would be used in carry
ing on the business of the company.
There would be no additions to the
work on the head of the increase in
stock. In 1865, when the capital stock
was $500, 900, dividend Of $50 per cent
was made-and the stock increased to
$3.50, 900. In 1880 dividend OF 100 per

One is that there are two Pinkerton
