said /, with some or the algebIaists OF
Paris. But proceed
II dispute the availability. and thus
the value, of that reason which is cult
waited in any especial form other than
the abstractly Logical. I dispute in par
ticular the reason educed by mathemat-
ical study. The mathematics are the
science of form and quantity; mathe-
NAUTICAL reasoning is merely logic applied
to observation upon form and quantity
The great error lies in supposing that
even the truths of what is called pure al
zebra are abstract or general truths. and
this error is so egreg1Ous that am con-
founded at the universally with which
1t has been received. Mathematical axi-
oms are not axio1ns of general truth.
What is true of relation-of form and
quantity-is often grossly false in regard
to morals. for example. In this latter sci
ence it is very Usually untrue that the
aggregated parts are equal to the whole.
I'm chemistry also the axiom fails. In
the consideration of motive it fails, for
two motives. each of d given value, have
not necessarily value when united
equal to the sum of their values apart
There are numerous other mathematical
truths which are only truths within the
limits of relation. But the mathema-
tician argues from his finite truths
through habit, as if they were of an ab-
solutely general applicability-as the
world indeed imagines them to be. Bry-
ant, in his very learned Mythology,
mentions an analogous source of error
when he says that although the pagan
fables are not believed, yet we forget
ourselves continually and make infer
ences from them as existing realities
with the algebra;sts, however, who
are pagans themselves, the pagan
fables are believed, and the differences
are made not so much through lapse Of
memory as through an unaccountable
adding of the brains In short, never
yet encountered the mere mathematician
who could be trusted out of equal roots,
or one who did not clandestinely hold it
as point Of his faith that x2--px was
absolutely and Internationally equal to
q. Say to one of these gentlemen, by
way of experiment, if you please, that
you believe occasions may occur where
x2L-px is not altogether equal to q, and
having made him understand what you
mean get out of his reach as speedily az
convenient, for beyond doubt he will en-
deavor to knock you down.
II mean to say" continued Dupin,
THAT if the minister had been no more
than mathematician the project would
have been under no necessity of giving
me this check knew him, however, as
both mathematician and poet, and my
measures were adapted to his capacity,
with reference to the circumstances by
which he was surrounded. | knew him
as courtier, too. and as bold intrig-
uant. Such man, considered, could
not fail to be aware of the ordinary po-
icial modes of action. He could not
have failed to anticipate-and events
have proved that he did not fail to an
ticipate- the waylayings to which he
was subjected. He must have foreseen,
I reflected, the secret investigations OF
his premises.

tina of Genera Business.
New YORK, June 1O.-The weekly
trade review says:
1.-The severe depres- sion of a week ago. which
eliminated in very tight money and numerous
failures, has been followed by some recovery.
Reports that definite action By congress on the
money question has been assured have done
much to cause the better feeling But the strin-
gency at Chicago and elsewhere has forced real
izing on the unprecedented stocks of wheat. so
that the lowest prices ever known have been
made here and at the west This has helped eX-
ports, and in other respects monetary condi-
tons are distinctly more favorable. Though
no radical change in underlying conditions
has occurred, there is more hopefulness and
some recovery from the extreme contraction
of credit.
SAT Philadelphia banks are holding money
cautiously, There is rather more business in
iron. but at very low prices At Cleveland
trade is fairly active but money close. At Gin
cinnati trade improves and money is active,
but collections slow. At indianapolis the gro
Gerry trade is better, and at Detroit trade is
only fair and banks are calling many loans
Chicago reports trade orders satisfactory.
Banks are considered safe, but are pursuing a
very conservative policy. Receipts increased.

The occasion was opened with an adj

The following brief extract may serve
to give an idea of the character of the
address: with the aid of a strong
imagination we may approach a com

Beethoven, but when the three are com
bined in one, the finite mind reels, and,
falling back on the transparent excuse
of ignorance, we say Wagner is unintel-

A crowd of 500 people was attracted
TO the corner of Fifth and Robert streets
at noon yes erday. Two labering men
who were holding fast to weli-dressed
fellow caused the excitement, and after
several minutes of waiting Pauolman
Davis arrived on the scene and the par
ties were taken 20 the central station. AT
the afternoon session of the police court
Harry AeManus was arraigned on a
charge of swindlIns Frank Almer and
Edward Johnson.
The men named we're travelling on an
interurban car when they were ap-
preached by McManus and informed
that he was a ST. Paul detective, and
unless they gave up s. he would have
to throw them in Jail. The men pro-
tested, and as they only had 81 in silver
agreed 10 give up half that amount for
protection. McManus insisted he must
have So, and searched the men and
found the other dollar. At this both
men decided it would be better 10 go 10
the station than have no money, and
although McManus was willing TO let
them go in order 20 escape, they
wouldn't have it that way, and held on
10 him until the policeman arrived
The case was continued until this morn
ing, and in default of bail McManuS
was committed TO Jail.
