pIRrHnAY OF YICrORIA.

On Sunday Queen Victoria reached her sew
enty-second birthday, and on yesterday the
event WAS celebrated with appropriate cere-
monies throughout the vast dominion over
which she exercises her sovereignty. For
over half century now she has occupied the
Rrirish throne. and during the course OF this
LONG period events Of surprising Importance
have occurred which will render her reign one
of the most memorable in the annals OF the
British Empire.
There is no other English reign which has
witnessedsuch greatlchanges brought about by
the gradual evolution of public opinion alone
The England of to-day is as different IN po-
litical and economic sense from the England
of the year in which the Queen came to the
throne, as if a century instead OF half CEN
tury had passed The two are hardly recog-
nizable as the same by the student
of English history. The advance
that has been made is most distinctly obser-
vable in the long career of Gladstone and 1t
has been an advance in the direction of pure
democracy which has probably only been pre-
vented from reaching full contamination by
the purity of the Queens private character
and the uprightness and wisdom of her public.
The influence of Victoria has been gracious
and benignant. and the affection and respect
with which she has always been regarded by
her own subjects has been shared by Eng
disappearing people in every part OF the
world. Being first true woman, 1t has fol-
lowed very naturally that she has always
shown herself 10 be a true sovereign, one IN
spired in her public duties and responsible
tiles by the high and noble instincts which
have always governed her conduct IN her
private relations.
As a ruler of England in an age when the
powers of the sovereign have been very much
restricted. she has confined herself strictly to
the constitutional limits of her authority, not
diminishing her dignity either by encroachlng
beyond these limits or allowing her own pre-
rogatives to be curtaled. Her position has
been difficult one, but the verdict of history
will be thai she has filed it with the highest
honor to herself and with the greatest benefit
to her people.
If her public life as a sovereign has been
such as to commend her to universal respect.
her private life in its exalted purity has spread
abroad wholesome influence that has made
a powerful impression upon the social history
of her people. Her example has always been
on the side of all that is elevated and virtuous
in the private walks of life, and If she had
conferred no higher benefit by her existance
than this, she would still deserve the unquali-
fed honor and veneration in which she is held
throughout the world

IT has been predicted that the financial
strength which this country has shown under
the heavy strain Of the expectation of gold
will make most favorable impression upon
the public opinion of Europe as TO the 6nan-
cial resources of this country and the safety
of investing in our securities. When the
panic which followed the collapse of the
Barings came, it was in New York that the
English capitalists found a market in which
they could convert at once holdings into
ready cash. and now for many weeks gold has,
without causing serious disturbance here,
been exported from our shores to restore con-
fidence in the foreign financial world.
One of the first evidences of the impression
which the financial stability Of this country
under all these trying circumstances has Gre
ated in England 3 the appointment of j. Pier
pont Morgan az chairman Of the commission
which has been established 10 take charge OF the
reorganization of Argentine financial affairs,
inwhich such a large.class of English investors
are interested. This commission is composed
of the principal English bankers. and the
selection of Mr.. Morgan, an American, as
chairman is not only an exalted compliment
to him personally, but also most honorable
in its significance to the high standing of the
United States in foreign financial circles.

The illness of Mr.. Gladstone. Sir John
Macdonald and Mr.. Blaine all at the same
time leads contemporary to dolefully re-
mark what pity it is that when statesmen
are ripe they are ready, like apples, to fall to
the ground, while their places have to be
filled by a new growth"
Its true. it's pity, and pity It's tits
true" That is the real reason why there is
nothing either perfect or new under the SUM-
The ripe man falls before his work is COM
pleted, and the new growth, though they
think they know it all. soon find that they
were no wiser than their predecessors, and
have to start all over again, only in turn to
die before their own hopes are lost in fruition.

who is content TO accumulate large fortune
and TO invest in form that VIII CONFER
no advantage upon any one but himself and
his own family is certainly not entitled 70 as
much consideration as the man who without
indulging in a loose and iniudicious employ
ment of bis wealth causes it to diffuse abroad
an influence that advances the prosperity OF
hundreds and thousands of individuals and
thus indirectly the welfare of the community
at large.
This is the noble use of wealth. but I'M
fortunately its accumulation IS so very
often attended by growth in narrowness OF
spirit and illiberaity Of mind that examples
Of a broad philanthropy in its employment
are only too infrequent. This. however only
causes q community to appreciate all the more
the men of fortune who look upon themselves
as holding their wealth in trust for the sood
of the community, and not Of themselves ana

WHETHER or not the Episcopal Council
lately in sessionin Petersburg gave thought to
the fact that work on a paper published on
Sunday has principally to be done on Saturday
while work on the Monday morning paper has
nearly all to be done on Sunday, they GER
tainly arrived at one very just and practical
conclusion. This is that if any one is con-
scientiously opposed 10 reading his paper on
Sunday all he has to do is to put it away un-
til Monday.
