YOUNG MEN AT THE FRONT.

Few Venerables to BE Found Among
European SOvereisns and States
men.
Lord ROsebery'S succession to the pre-.
miership serves to call the New Orleans
Picayune's attention to the fact that
whereas during the first decade after
the Franco-German war. and through
out the major part of the second, the
destinies of Europe were controlled by
monarchs and statesmen Of advanced
age, their power is now vested in the
hands of comparatively very young
men. This is, indeed, the epoch of
youth. Lord Beaconsfeld, Prince Gort-
chakoff, Prince Bismarck, NJ. Theirs,
Depretis, Gladstone and the Danish
statesman Estrupp, have all either died
or withdrawn into private life, and the
same may be said of their masters
The German emperor, who is undOubt-
edly the man at the helm in the leu
tonic empire, is only 33 yeals old; the
prince IF Bulgaria is 33, he emperor of
Russia 81, while the king of Wuuem-
burg, the king of Portugal, and the
king of Greece are all young men. Still
more youthful are the king of Holland,
the young king of Servia, and the little
king of Spain. AS regards statesmen,
we find young men, such as Lord Rose
berry, and Mr.. Asquith, the husband
elect of Miss Margot Tenant, occupy
ing the principal executive offices of the
British crown. The Austrian prime
minister, Prince Windisgraetz, is
under 40, and Cardinal Rompolla, the
papal secretary of state, IS barely one
or two years over that age. M. Cast
mir -Perrier, the French prime minister,
is about 4s years of age while M, Du:
puy, his predecessor, and now president
of the chamber of deputies, is about
three years younger Many other names
might be added to the list, but the
above will suffice to show that we are
living in the golden age Of youth, and
that while age and experience are at
discount youth and enthusiasm ars
above par.

And all alike have been baffi.d in
their researches. PLATO and ARIs-
ToTLEx so far as regards this
question, reasoned and speculated in
vain. DARWIN and HUXLEY are here
as much at fault as those who have gone
before. Social reforms, no doubt, Will
improve society. Sanitary measures,
good drainage, good water, better food,
better lodging, better teaching, will un-
questionably (as the phrase goes)
" elevate the masses" But VIII
these things, carried to their
highest perfection, bring man up
to the level of his highest responsible
ties, his highest duties and privileges.
No, we say; we must look elsewhere
for the forces which are TO accomplish
this. We must look, not to the policy OF
statesmen, the prudence of magistrates,
the illumination of science; we must
look in quarter less acceptable to
many, less conspicuous for those ex-
ternal attractions which rivet the at
tention of the world.
For the solution of this problem we
must 60 to Bethlehem and find it in the
Child that was born on Christmas Day.
The world little dreamt Of the wondrous
event that was taking place there! The
occupations and amusements OF the
time were going on as usual; the philoso-
piers were speculating at Athens; the
merchants were bargaining at Antioch
and Alexandria. In Corinth and Rome
the men of pleasure were seated at their
ban quets, crowned with their garlands,
flusksu with their wine. The sailor was
tossing on the ocean, the slave was toll
ing in the mine; the sick, suffering and
heart-broken were groaning beneath
their burdens in a world that had no
remedy to suggest, no consolation to offer.
And then it was that there broke, on the
silent night the first faint infant cry OF
Him who was to be the answer TO all
the worlds torturing questions, the So
lace Of all its sufferings. This is the real
reason for Christmas rejoicings, and it
should not be forgotten in the
lighter amusements of the season.
There should be an intelligent and de-
vout celebration of Christmas and the
linking of merriment Herewith. 1t is
the children's holiday as well as holy
day. They should make merry and be
glad at this season. In gifts to the poor
and innocent sports of old and young we
recognize Christmas customs worth
observing.
