Mr.. Harry I5urniss, the well known carica-

ing anecdote, which amusingly illustrates
some of the troubles of the harassed portrait
painter;
A man once called upon a portrait painter
and asked him TO paint his father.

"Then how can | paint him" asked the

paint the portrait of man who died thou
sands of years ago, you can more easily paint
the portrait Of my father, who has only been
dead ten years"
Seeing the sort of man with whom he had
to deal, the artist undertook the work.
When the picture was finished, the newly
blossomed art patron was called in to see it.

eyes illing with tesrs, and then softly and

Dr. StrODg-M. Hummer confines his investigations to Europe--pro- poses to leave out of account all fu- ture immigration and conline himself to the increase of births over deaths, leaving immigration as set-off against any possible check upon growth. Calculated upon this strict ly moderate basis, the population of the United States stands for 1880 at 4SO, ,OOO ,0O0. The total Anglo-SaXon population of the world would then be 713, 100000, as compared with 534 ,OOO .0OO of continental Europe. And it must be remembered that these figures show the largest proba- ble population of Europe. and the smallest probable numbers of the Englsh-speaking race.
 In fact of the tremendous figures it is well to be reminded that If the whole of the English-speaking popu- lation of the world-multiplied as they are likely to be at the end of another century--were to be planted down in the territory of the United States and then doubled, the people would not be so thick upon the ground as they are in Belgium. While in France the population is 1S0 to the square mile. in Germany 2s6, in England and Wales 42S, in Belgium, 4S1, i'll the United States, exclusive of Alaska, the population
 is only 1G per square mile. Indeed, the 90, ,O00, GOO people of the United States in 1880 might be put into Texas and yet the population would not be as dense as in Germany. Put the whole population of the United States into the Dakotas and the peo- pie would be less crowded than to- day in England and Wales. Our share of the earths surface, there fore, seems an ample inheritance even for the overwhelming increases of the future. IL is of more immedi- ate consequence to inquire whether this people, scattered over so many climes and so many lands, but bound hv common speech, and common memories, and common laws, will re- main in any real sense a homOgene- ous race. The whole tendency of civilization seems to point to an an- swer in the affirmative. Increased facilities of communication and the always growing intercourse between England and the people across the Atlantic and in the Pacific will have their inevitable effect in checking anything like scparateness of speech or thought. Already it is q matter for common observation that phase or word which is one season noted as an "Americanism" the next is ac- cepted by all as though it were a part of our inherited English speech. No doubt in Canada and in the nited States. as in Australia and south Africa, the dominant type will be affected by streams of emigration from other lands. But here also his tory repeats itself, and as Saxon and Dane and Norman and Celt and Gaul helped by their fusion in the making of England so the same elements will continue to he absorbed by the English-speaking people over seas.
