the following passage from Defoe's

Tun Announcement. whether correct
or otherwise we do not undertake to say
that Sir John Macdonald is about to re-
ceive from Her Majesty the Queen,
further proof of Imperial appreciation
of a great Colonial statesmen, has not
unaturally prompted ungenerous crit-
icism in the columns of Opposition or-
gan -in chief. We do not imagine that
its opinions will be endorsed, even by
any large section of the L herd pirty,
nor do we think that a public man who
has gained a 'world-wide reputation,
and become prominent through intel-
lect, and not Crown interest or back-
stair influence, would consider thatIm-
per al honours added one jot to his im-
portance as a statesman. Thousands
remember Disraeli: how many speak of
Lord Beaconsfield? Thousands have
heard of Robt. Lowe; how many hund-
red recognize Lord Sherbrooke? The
great ones of the world made their
names , earn their positionovithout the
aid of star, or ribbons decoration. So
with Sir John Macdonald; his name,
coupled with national achievements,
and devotion to country, will be a talis
man and example to future generation
of Canadians, when the highest title
Her Majesty could confer, will be re-
membered and respected only, as hay -
been his by right, a prize N`*on, a royal
favour earned; by intellectual toil and
not syeoyhantic sttbserviency. The
position •Canada holds to-day,rnust Ciel r
Sir John 'Macdonald for any imputation
of self-seeking at the expellee or by the

able to approach it." Again, "one
might have seen 200,000 people, of
all ranks and degrees. dispersed and.
lying alone by the heap of what they
could save from the fire." Millions
upon millions of pounds sterling, in
values were lost, besides a song list
of lives. Then followed (1703) the
"great storm." Hone relates that it
was for long the custom to preach a
sermon in "Little Wild Street Chappel,
Lincoln's Inn Fields," every 27th of
November, in commemoration of the
"great storm of 1703." The fearful
tempest broke over London, .Bristol,'
and surrounding counties, the noise
being "hoarse and dreadful like thun-
der, horror and confusion seized upon
all, whether at sea or on shore;"mill-
ions
illions upon millions in property, was
destroyed, and 8,000 lives lost by sea
and on land. The chronicler, Hone,
adds, "So awful a visitation produced
serious impressions upon the Govern-
ment, and a day of fasting and 'humil-
iation was appointed by authority.'"
Fire, water, wind and disease were.
not, the only visitations, for on the 1st
of November, 1755, occurred the `great
earthquake at Lisbon." Rev. Charles
Davy, in his powerful description of
this terrible calamity, says "You
