FoR NEwsrArERs--A little Legislation
was enacted for the newspapers this year
II Is the law framed by Senator veateh,
and Its object Is to stop the practice which
some newspapers have, that of sending
papers 10 persons whether an order for the
same has been received or not. veateh's
law provides that all such papers shall be
deemed gifts and that no debt shall accrue
from their receipt.-Ex. Nevertheless II

IN other businesses mistakes may occur.

differevec with the general business, for
very few papers are run on that basis.

A universal language must be a

must expand until II covers The
whole world. OF late years the
English language alone has been
much spoken of as likely TO grow
so great. Hardly any philo,ophir
huguist attempts To forecast the
lulure without some discussion OF
The destiny of English; aud De
Candolle calculates that within
one hundred years English will be
spuken by SG0.000.0 900 men, German
by 124. 900 aud French by 96,-
900. 700. AT present The pupuia-

English-speakIng races occupy
oue-fourlh of the dry land on the
earth aud own nearly Two thirds Of
the tonnage of the ships. They
live in all regions; they handle all
articles of trade; they preach TO
all nations; they command one
half The worlds gold and silver,
and distribute more than two
thirds Of the Bibles aud TeSta-
menis. More than one-half of the
letters mailed and carried by the
postal service of the world are
written, mailed and read by the
Engllsh.Speaking population. The
expectations that English will
come into universal use Is not bas-
ed upon anything in The nature of
the language, but rather ON the
character and circumstances of the
people. The English people have
been the great c0lonizerS of mod
ern times. They have taken pos
session of America, of Australia,
of South Africa. the regions which
are to be The seat of new empires,

indebted To Edward Hale. His
Satanic Majesty made a deal with
a certain fellow that he should pos
