The time has been used in getting both the army and navies -of tbe two countries into fighting shape, and almost any moment may signal the booming of the cannon. The United. States has captured some ten or twelve steamers and schooners belonging to Spain, and Spain has not been lacking in the same line and has also secured some valuable prizes, but. there has been no actual war fighting. Just as we go -to press we learn from a private despatch that the United States war ships have commenced the bombardment of Cuba. - WHOLE NO.1265.

It is at least gratifying to learn that,he is for the time free from the pain which has for some time made his. life a torment. The Plebisite Bill, introduced Al . Hon. Yr.

Chicago Canadian Americans --"The Dominion of Canada is experiencing a remarkable Ira of isosperity at the present time. No matter in what direction .one looks a condition of affairs is apparent that affords good cause for encouragement and congratu- lations While other countries have been passing through all the disagree- able end trying experience associated with hard times, the Dominion has been tranquilly forging ahead to th3 front rank among the nations of the world, developing her industrial, agri• cultural and mineral resources, extend- ing her commerce, and husking her name respected in every corner of the globe." Already unpleaeant • financial evi- dence of war is being •brought home to those who stay at home over the border. Prices are up. On the whc,lesale cash markets wheat has risen 14 cents a bushels since April 1, and flour is consequently selling high- er by 50 cents a barrel. Pork, lard, and all kinds of ISirovisions have sim- uitantously risen 10 per cent, in price, an4ee6ffee is quoted higher by 11 cents a pound, or nearly 25 per cent.

A Rumor to That leffect.-Nst Yet Confirmed. . , A bulletin from the G.N.W. Tele- graph Company, states that Hon. W. E. Gladstone died this msrning. The rumor is not confirmed at the hour of going tu press. .LEN3TH OR THE WAR. Looking upon., Om' .war between Spain and the ,Utiited 'States from seat in the grand stand, we Canadians are interested mainly in knowing how long the tight will last. The tone of New. York comment would .indicate that the States expects Spain to yield so sooli as Cuba is taken from her. But there is no reason for supposing that such will be the case. The fleet of the Republic . could not blocade Spanish ports, because • there are no coaling stations held by the United. States in the Mediterranean'. And from the coast of Spain an inumerable fleet of privateers, at no cost to the 'Government of the eountry, would issue forth to plunder the commerce of her enemy in the tour quarters of the globe. • Neither power is strong enough upon the sea to bring the War into the the other'e country It would be an indefinitely prolonged guerilla warfare, in which the States would be the :water loser, aad Great Britain. and (refrnairy the principal gainers; since the shipping of the world would have to be carried in British and German bottoms. , it.. willnot be a war 'of- armies,. When the Spaniards.letve been AeiVen from. Cuba, the Spanish 'Government will have but so much more money to expend upon the naval operations. They wiil fatten On the rich plunder of the commerce of the States. The other powers may intervene,hut unless they do the war might well go on forever.—Star: 41.4=11•1•13 HOME STEDY BY CHILDREN. School Inspector Deacon, of Halton, told the County Council. a- few days ago that he believed -that to re quire children to putzle their brains at night over arithmetical or other problems was dangerous. It was likely to make them steeples' s and to effect their hmItli. He decidedly dis- approved of it. The children who suffered were the brightest and most ambitiousIt was possible that the remting at home of history and simi- lar subjects would do no harm; hut it was douLtful whether anything was gained by home work of any kind. At Georgetown for instance the school board a year or two ago, forbade it.. 'The result of the change of system was a slight falling off in the standing of the school for the first six months or so; but after the pupils had be= come used to it the School quickly re- gainPd all it lied lost, and Istterly ite position has been fully up to the aver- age. Perhaps it is going too far to abolish home work, but there is no doubt that %'hen, a.s is the case in some !schools, children•are required to put in two to two and a half hours' studyp, an injustice is done to boys and girls which must inevitably result in injury. to their health, The matter is one entirely in the hand of pareets, trus- tees and teachers, ahd merits the at, tention of all concerned. —For rent!

General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church will meet on June 8 at Montreal. Last month was the biggest for receipts to the Presbyterian funds on record. Nearly $100,000 was received at the treas- urer's offices in Toronto which enabled all the funds but one to close free of debt.

After the usual devotional exercises, the ladies received a hearty IM'is rill „ welcome from the hostese. A pleasing fel in number on the programme was a solo by Miss Aggie Geddes entitled "Speak kind words" the sentiment of which if put to "practical" use would make _christiati work more successful than it is to -day. Mrs. A. M. Armstrong, by request, read a circular on, "Sab- bath Observance" which was intently listened to and which called forth an interesting discussion, but as the time was limited it was suggested by the President that the paper be more fully discussed at the next parlor meeting. Mrs. Wallwin gave an interesting reading on cider making and using, and the reward of light -doing. We were glad to see a number of the mem- bers present who have not been able to attend during the winter also a number of visitors. Mrs. Berry, sup- eriutendent of parlor meeting, pre- sided in her usual efficient manner.

About half past one o'clock 'on Monday moraing the alsrin of fire Was sounded srom the waterworks whistle and notwithstanding the .unsensonahle hour, the memoers of -the fire brigade promptly responded to the call of duty and were ready for action in a very few minutes. The scene of the tire was the large deuble storey frame building owned by Mr. Thos. Reid, on Camp- bell stieet, and occupied by Mei W.11. Cash's photograph gallery in the lower stoiey, and the upstairs by Mr. It. J. Stinson aka dwelling house.' The fire started in a small pantry up • stairs and had gained considerable headway before it was discovered, and had it not been for the prompt action of . the firemen and the heroic efforts put forth, a big canflagration would have been the result. As it was the lire was chiefly conhned to the inside of the building and although a great deal of damage was done, it will be fully covered by insurance. Mr. Stinson's furniture was badley damaged and the hand- some piauo was completely dietroyed: Mr. Cash also had considerable ds. age done to his gallery and fixtures Etigineer•Douglas and the fire brigade are deserving of the greatest praise for their excellent work in prompt!y stamping out this fire, for had it ever reached the adjoining buildings, there is no telling .where it would have ended.

Some o the salient points in the sermon are here given: In His tnediatoria character, Christ is King over th Church and the world. He holds an wields the sceptre of the Univers& empire, and nations and tribes are under his sway. • If we look at the past history of the church and the world and contemplate the present we behold ensigns of royal, omnipotent power displayed. His empire iii co extensive with universal realmdom, whether in heaven, earth or hell. His government is universal, particular and special. In his nature as God, Christ is essentially king. In His mediatorial capacity the kingship is a bestowment. It was given by the eternal God as a reward of hid obedience, sufferings and death, that he might direct and govern all for the manifestation of Divine glory and the furtherance and profit of his spiritual kingiom on earth. This king enacts laws and appoints officers. His church is bound to be loyal to the precepts and statutes of tier king, and eivil rules should make the laws of the realm in harmony with the principles of eternal justice and righteoutness. This should be the cue with all depert inents of civil governments, and all societies. Christ should he %sok now. ledged as Lord and Master and hearty loyalty extended to him. Rulers, both ecclesiastical and civil should be God- fearing men, loving righteousness end hating covetousness. If -this be dis- regarded and the people be disloyal to Christ and his laws, the keihnugtiinierigthht eous judgement e - rebellious. W hen commutions end turmoil, wars and rumors of war, are abroad in the earth and the displeasure of God evidently seen, it behov-es the people to consider their ways, reoount their sins, personal and national, and repent. Their attitude le.fore God should be humiliation of spirit mourn- 1 ing over their sins. Let the netions ' engaged in deadly conflict to -day learn wisdom, repent of natione sins and seek the Lord. Do right, learn righteousness and God shall direct the the issues of the war. Let all disloyal to Christ stop and consider. They s tand on forbidden ground. Give unto the King the kiss of reconciliation and he wise, and let" all who serve the Lord rejoice in the kingship of Chriet. i His unfailing love, his ample mercy I and omnipotent power will Serve you .1 here until at last you participate+ in the glory of your King in Heaven. tj • Ns -0'0 • • Blouses.
