mercial expansion and colonial gov
ernment must sink steadily in inAu-
ence. Spain has lost her colonies,
and her commercial Importance has
dwindled vastly in consequence.
France has displayed the limit of her
colonial aptness Gin Madagascar, and
it is so discouraging as to promise
little of lasting value in either Cen
trail Africa or Southern China, when
compared with the accomplishment Of
other powers. Italy's fasco in East
Africa, in her Abyssinian ambition,
dealt death blow to her foreign pros
poets. In the similarity which ex-
listed in the intellectual influences
the early literature of
France, Italy, Spain and Portugal is
found the root OF deterioration which
these nations experience in common
today. Present decadence runs not in
a national stream merely, but in a
which is Latin, and, therefore,
Ill embracing in Southern Europe.

Painful Accident.

On Thursday, 18th inst, as Mrs. s. A. Hob
litzell was sitting in one of the rooms at the
Methodist Protestant parsonage at st. Mich
aers, something transpiring outside attracted
her attention and arising hastily she ran to
the window to catch d nearer view. In her
hurry she struck her head against the window
frame and a projecting nail in the jamb
struck her glasses, and glancing, was forced
into her right eye with such vigor as to pene-
lrate the flesh, nearly forcing the eye from its
socket aud tesring the skin so badly as to re-
Guire several stitches to be taken. She has
slightly improved but suffers great pain, and
the sight of the eye may be impaired. Mrs
Hoblitzell is well and favorabiy known from
her long residence in Bel Air, and has the
heartiest sympathies of every one.
