Ile say& that even a blizzard of short tiuratiohl may materially affect the year's -volume of business and, conse• quent on the diversified business methods of the age, may lead to inability of thousands to meet business obligations. Sow, thea, can he justify o radical interference with the regular movements of trade, and the bitter- ness and hostility engendered by these quadrennial contests ? He says the political education of the people is of more consequence, as an element in national life, than even the increase of wealth. Ile claims that a presi- dantial election is a most effective means of national education in the principles of political economy. Es- pecially was this process of education a leading feature of the campaign just closed, he says. So liigbly does he value this that he regards such an election cheap at any cost, from a purely educational standpoint. The voters generally have a much clearer conception of the important principles that underlie their political beliefs. This is claimed to• be the fundamental reason for the holding of these elec- tions, which are the great nationill educating forces. The political educa- tion of the people is recognized to be. a necessity, and this, it is urged, can be much more successfully accomplish- ed by great periodical national efforts. This he illustrated by pointing out the splendid results attending the efforts of a school or college when the enthusiasm of those in attendance is stirred to a point where they begin to argue, discuss and debate the various tonics among themselves. �•,�ll"cf which sounds well and is a 111atisijile justification for so lnomen- jious rational convulsions every four lyeare ut could not the desired end tie redao more effectively by a calm, steady, gradual process of conviction '\lien the minds of the people are com- paratively free from political bias and r'.tneor, when the rewards for question cable political acts are not dangling before their eyes, when judgment is more impartial, national prejudices and weaknesses unappealed to l THE LIBERLALS A1tD IRELAND. "Lord Roseberry, one of tue young,st and cleverest statesmen in Britain, 'recently made a, manly statement of the Liberal p.lsition in regard to Ire- land. We quote from his address the following extract :--"I£ our policy is simple, the pl;iueiple that underlies the poliey is simpler still. We believe, to VA it as shortly as I can, that govern- 1Yielhts are Inane for the people, and tot the people for governneats. Ttlo People are not even made for tre0,tiea . of union. Trot -60i of union are made for the people. A'l governments and all treatises are on'y arrangeinetts for t .0 plpular good, and when they fail to satisfy thee requirement they are f1,o11sod. If you view the governlnei t of Ireland according to that Standltrd it Gtautk contxennied. It has nev c.'S.t;s'tt'tl, it ht.s never even preteeded to ,..lig:.', fur the good of the ) EGp!e. situatiou o'f affairs with more vigor Lana with more eloquence than those t Q o members for Birmingham who now employ so much vigorous rhetoric in denouncing their old friends who have attempted to redress that wrong. I believe that that truth is so patent land so obvious that Iter Majesty's present advisers see it themselves. I firmly believe that the parliament of 1886 will not pass to a natu>sal death without her Majesty's govorumout endeavoring to offer the Irish people that measure of local government which they denounce us for offering. But whether their hearts bo turned to the good of the people or not, sure I am of this—that the democracy of England and of Scotland have em- braced the cause of the people of Ire. laud that they are determined that this iniquitous farce of administration shall cease --that they have deter. mined that a local legislature shall be set up in Ireland for the deterwina- tion of distinctly Irish affairs so long as . Cho Im erial su reluac is safe! P supremacy y guarded. They have determined that Irish government shall no longer be a happy hunting ground for Tory prin- ciples or the mere machinery for the discordant army of the Unionists in order, but that it shall .be adhninis- toroc for tihe benefit, and for the whole benefit, of the Irish people. To that compact Yorkshire has set her hand, to that compact Leeds, the constituen- cy of the Gladstolhesr who chose the son and who chose the father, and who would fain have kept the father only we held tight on to hint, I say that Leeds, the constituency of the Gladstones, and Yorkshire have set their !lands to that solemn attempt. I do not doubt their success, because,, more of Leeds or even. Yorkshire, the Liberal party hag taken up with do. termination—and the Liberal party hasknown adversity, has known re- verses, has known calamity, but when it bas once set its face to an object it has meter known permanent defeat. The Wale Soolety, The Toronto Bible Society was formed in 1829 and the Upper Canada Society in 1840. Twenteenine new branches were formed last year, thir- teen of which were in the Northwest. The revenue for last year was $32,506, an increase of $1,620 over the former year. The proceed of sales were $10,818. and of coutribution $21,488. Seven colporteurs in the year dis- tributed 27,411 copies of the Bible. The Toronto depository last year sent out to branches and the trade, by. coiporteurs, sold iu depository and have away 40,961 copies in . many different languages. Since its com- mencement the Upper Canada Bible Society has issued 1,400,066 copies, realizing $673,013 therefor. The British and Foreign Bible Society for the year sent out 4,206,032 bibles. This represented an expendi- ture of $1,251,910. The report shows the work done in each couutry through- out the world. Nearly five thousand copies were distributed to exiles on their way to Siberia. The reports from agents and colporteurs are of the most encouraging character. ' Last year the Upper Canada Bible Society employed, for a greater or less period of time, some 21 agents and seven colporteurs. The treasurer's, report last year showed the total receipts to be $33,533, of which a balance of $496 remained on hand. she colporteurs' sales wore ,$2,7501 Foreign Bible Society and expenses and salary $2,824. The agents' expenses were $3,425. To the r iritilb and b'0f' t+ I there was remitted as contributions c $3,861, and sent on purchase account X12.975. The salaries of the secre- teryr, depositary and assistants were $,000. For an illuminated address to the Queen there was paid $50. Winghain appears as having glade no return last year.
