ed OF nations, the Savior of the world.
FIR. Woods followed the crowd to
the mauger, as the news of the birth
became known. He spoke of the roy
al splendor in which the Infant King
was surrounded, of Joseph's counte-
nance all aglow with love, the straw
bed and pillow, the breath of dumb
animals His only warmth, and He
wrapped only in swaddling bands.
The angels appeared and sung their
sweetest song. Then the minister
dwelt on Jesus as two in one-God
and Man. Coursing through his veins
is His Precious Blood, human blood
like ours, shed in the circumcision, be-
dewing::with crimson sweat the Gar
den of Olives, and poured out in silent
streams from His five gaping wounds,
in the vigor of His Manhood, on the
summit of Calvary's Cross Crowned
hill.
The present age, fraught with cold
and unchildlike formality, seems to
regard God more as the stern and re-
lentless Judge, than as kind and
most indulgent Father, but surely He
who has loved us with an everlasting
love ought TO inspire us with the
greatest confidence and tenderness.
"The Incarnation of Jesus Christ
brings out in bold relief the most
solemn and absolute efficacy of prayer.
Priest, patriarch, king and prophet,
all had prayed for the coming of Him
who has to rule and save His people.
The world had prayed for 1000 years;
kings had sighed for the deliverance
which earthly sceptres could not
bring. The sorrows of the desolate
and miseries of troubled souls prayed
for that peace which originated in
Heaven above, and was brought down
to man by Angels lips when Jesus
became thrice.our own.
"Christ alone is our mighty captain:
before whom the devils tremble and
the angels bow in silent awe. And so,
at last, when this false glare of mortal
life is done, Be Thou, O Infant
Christ, the unflickering kindly light
that shall lead us on-on from amid
this encircling gloom to that other
Christmas morn, where the night is
ever gone, and with those angel faces
we shall never cease to smile and
bless and praise Thee-Glory be to
God for Thy Divine coming unto

CHRISTMAS MORNING.
FIR. Woods Discourse on the Incl
dents Leading Up To 1t.

Rev. FIR. James J. Woods preached
an interesting sermon to his congrega-
ton on Christmas morning at the
Catholic church in this city on the
morning of Dec. 25th. He stated that
in the simple and unwritten history OF
each and every child of Eve, there are
two unchanging and Interchangeable
events. These two unvarying epochs,
like indestructible pyramids of old,
mark the rise and fall of every human
being. These two porches of time,
the cradle and the grave, will stand
forth alone, when all things shall have
crumpled into dust, to ring out joy
full tale, or to toll a mournful knell.
AS the still and silent grave instinct
lively recalls some doleful pang of sor-
row, so the gladstone cradle of every
new born babe enkindles fresh light,
life and hope in those who gather
around.
He asked his congregation to let
their thoughts roll back some nineteen
centuries ago, to the bright new
Christmas eve, which heralded the
worlds first Christmas day. 1t was in
the dark time of mid-winter, he said,
and the old roads about Judea we're
thronged with anxious travellers, for
Augustus Caesar had ordered every
one to be enrolled in the city of his
tribe. God had used the proud caprice
of this pagan Emperor to fulfill the
noble prophecy that had been spoken
long ago, before proud Rome had ris-
en- to rule the world from her seven
majestic hills. Among these weary,
trudging travellers, were two, wo-
man seated on an ass, which an old
man led carefully along the rugged
road. There was not much in their
outward mien, to attract the worlds
notice, yet if one had observed closely
he might have been struck by the
meek nobleness of Mary's looks and
by traces of high descent upon Jo-
seph's brow. For humble though
they were, they we're of the royal
house of David, and were journeying
on from Nazareth to be enrolled
Bethlehem, the city of their fathers
The night had fallen when they
reached the town, travel stained
and way worn. The inns of Bethle-
hem, being few, we're crowded to the
full with richer travellers. So Mary
and Joseph, having nowhere else to
90, wandered houseless and desolate
in the open white frost fields.
Being wearied by the days journey,
sick at heart from Mary's approaching
trouble, and unable to proceed step
further at last they entered a bleak
and cold, unsheltered cave, where
beasts, more hospitable than men, re-
ceived them. And there, between an
ass and OK was born the long expect

UNITED STATES EASTERN TRADE

The trade of the United States with
China and the Far East, and the chan
ces of its increasing in volume, will
be one of the most important factors
when the Spanish war comes to be
settled up for. The total import
trade of China according to the latest
statistics amounted to $171 900, 900. In
1896 the exports from the United
States to China amounted to $7,OOO,-
900 in value, or about per cent of
the total Chinese trade. 1t is very
plain that there is immense room for
expansion, and expansion even with
out injury to other competitors, for
western goods are still only drop
in the consumption of China's TEEN
ing millions. fts.

veloping is shown by the latest
monthly issue of the Bureau of sta
tistics of the Treasury Department.
As has been said the United States eN-
ports to China in 1896 were $7,OOO,OOO,
i'm 1897 they amounted to S12,0O0,00O,
Jump of S5,OOOOOO in one year. IT
is calculated that there win be a
Slight falling off during the present
year, but this will be due to a reduc-
ton of prices and not to reduction
in the volume of trade.
For the present year, up to June,
the exports of mineral oils were in ex-
cess of the same period for 1897,
about 100000 gallons, but the total
cash falls below the total cash of 1897
owing to decrease in price. Looking
over the items in the list, it is to be
! noted that the exports of cotton
cloth doubled in the year 1897, iron
and steel manufactures quadrupled,
and clocks and watches were two and
half times what they were in 1896.
The total trade of the United States
with Asia will, according to Brad
streets. amount to $45,000,000. which
will be a gain of 10 per cent over last
year; it is more than double what it
was in 1890, four times what it was
in 1850. and ten times what it was in
1870 OF the distribution one-third
goes to China, one-third to Japan and
one-third to the East Indies.
With this growing volume of trade,
it is very evident that the United
| States needs a naval station in the
East and that the opportunity has
come to establish one. Trade reasons,
! if no other will make the United
States hold the Philippines in a firm
| grip.

The holiday of the French Repub-

The French Revolution is the parent
of the liberties enjoyed in many parts
of the world at the present day. The
power of the people over the sover.

SOME COMPARISONS.

None of the speeches delivered in
favor of annexation during the debate
in the House of Representatives was
more to the point or more convincing
than that given by Congressman Bar
rows of Massachusetts. And not con-
tent with his speech in the House, Mr..
Barrows carried the war into the
newspapers, and published some very
brilliant letters maintaining the vari-
Gus points he made.
Congressman Barrows, thirty years
ago, was secretary of William II. Sew
ard. and. as the Boston journal points
out, had exceptional opportunities for
seeing and studying the forces APP
posed to territorial expansion. Sew
ard had to contend against the blind
ness. ignorance and timidity, so have
the anneXationists of Hawaii. Seward
had not to contend against an octo-
pus like the Sugar Trust. unfortu-
nately the anneXationists of Hawaii
have had that foe.
When the Alaska purchase was ne
ing discussed it was represented ,hat
the natives were 1.-The fercest and
most intractable beings on the face
of the earth" and that it would cost
$30O.O 900 a head to kill Stewards Indi-
ans In the thirty years that the
United States has owned Alaska there
1,e l,a,,, az, ,o,oei,, 70 Gill Sa,vnrd's
Indians" and when the rush to the
Klondike came Stewards Indians"
took to hauling freight and making
the best of flush times, like any other
set of sensible and peace loving ciii-
zens. \ Congressman, the other day,
his name has slipped from memory,
discanted upon the barbarism and
vice of the Hawaiians. knowing just
as much about the matter as the gen
tleman who made the remark about
Stewards Indians"
In speaking of the plea that the
Hawaiians would suffer from coming
under the American flag, Mr.. BarroWs
said: Neither they nor any other
people that | know of have anything
to lose by coming under the protec-
ton of the American flag. The peo-
pie of Hawaii have everything to gain
and nothing to lose"
Balancing the advantages of annex
alton Mr.. Barrows said they were re-
ciprocal and proved his case. I'VE, >
Mr.. Barrows pointed out, ''shall get a
group of fertile islands, valuable for
commerce, valuable also as a naval
station, and we shall remove these is
lands from the arena of international
dispute, which might easily endanger
peace. What will Hawaii get? She
will get the privilege of hosting the
American fag-the most beautiful
flag in the world. And what will that
mean? 1t will mean that she shall
enter into and share our liberties, that
she shall share our history, and that
she shall also share our future"
Ringing words these and worthy OF
Secretary Seward, with his far seeing
policy and his observation-disclosures and
to them may be added the words OF
Charles Sumner More happy than
Austria, who acquired possessions by
marriage; we shall acquire them 10y
the attraction of Republican institu,
tons. Bestow such a government and
you will give what is better than al
you receive" And as Congressman
Barrows points out, the words most
distinctly apply to Hawaii.

Washington Irving expressed a poor
opinion of persons who spend their
time during war in discussing
whether it is right or wrong. He had
far more respect for the men who do
the fighting and those who give all
possible aid and comfort to the ma
tons defenders. He did not class
them as drunkards nor fling in their
their faces the fact that they received
small wages.

Atlantic Gold.

Assay of the Specimen from the Works at
North Lubec.
An interesting test was conducted last
week at the assay Office in Philadelphia
by Assistant Assayer Ii. L. Pound, whose
semitic research into the deep subject of
precious metals is well known. There
was submitted to Mr.. Pound for examina-
ton bar containing silver and gold said
to have been extracted from the Atlantic
ocean, although no certificate or affidavit
to that effect accompanied the specimen
This deposit, which weighs 1877 ounces,
was reported to have been obtained from
the ocean near North Lubec, Maine, and
after rough and superficial examination
Mr.. Pound found that the bar contained
between 1898 and 81, 900 of gold, thus be-
ing worth So an ounce. To secure this
metal from the sea the company expend-
ed $2OO, and the margin of profit is GER
talnly tempting one. Gold when fine,
is worth $50 81 per ounce, and this sam
pie is poor quality of the metal being
freely mixed with silver and other metals
Tests have been made at the New York
assay office, and the company was anxious
to have the opinion of the PHILADELPHIA
expert.
The whole question is one of fascinat-
ing possibilities, although there are many
chemists and scientists who discount the
glowing surmses that are sent out bv
those who have or are contemplating
wrestling from Father Neptune his great
store of wealth. No one denies the theo-
ry, which has been demonstrated a real
ity in many sections, of water, that there
are deposits of gold and silver in the tides
Now it is stated that the varying currents
have distributed the seas wealth evenly.
and this is based on tests made in the
Irish Sea, German 0 can, English Chan
mel, Long Island Sound, Narragansett
Bay, Passamaquoddy Bay and the waters
OF the south Pacific, all of which showed
uniformity of the metals. Sonstadi and
Liversidge, TWO scientists, have labored
over this problem, and the latter in pa
per says that in the sea water off New
South Wales gold is in proportion of
about one half to one grain per ton. He
estimates the whole bulk of the ocean to
be 30S, 10, go cubic miles, and, at one
grain per ton of water, this means 500
600, 600, 900 tons of gold.
