THE SIGNIFICANCE OF
CHRIS]?MAS.
After, nineteen centuries of Christianity
it may still bo doubted if the truesignific-
ance of C1iri.stines Day lute passed into the
common intelligence. The very slowness
with which the day came into observance
proves the difficulty of grasping the deep-
est meaning of the festive'. Of all the
festivals of Christendom, Christmas was
the latest to be recognized. Easter and
Good Friday date from the very events
which they commemorate. Pentecost and
ASeention Day were adopted into the
calendar while yet the Church was a
suffering and persecuted body; the death -
days of martyrs and of saints were cele-
brated from the earliest times. But it
was not until the Roman Empire had
embraced Christianity, not until the
victorious Church had sent its missionar-
ies to subdue the Northern barbarians to
its sway, and the necessity of giving to
the populance a Christian festival in place
of suppressed heathen observances had
become apparent, that the Roman Satur-
nalia and the Scandinavian Yule became
Christmas, and the commemoration of the
birth of the world's Redeemer took the
, place of that celebration of the cessation
of the year's toil— that hailing ofthebirth
of the powers of nature—which to the
Southern and the Northern mind respect-
ively seemed the fit occasion of fullest joy.
Very little did rude Viking or overrefined
Italian realize of the deepest significance
of the chancre. Few among them could
. have seen the promise of Winter solstice
fulfilled in the birth of theLord and Giver
•of Life, or the Saturnalias leveling of
ranks made permanent in the equal
brotherhood of men in Christ : none the
less is Christmas Day thefulfillmentof the
prophecy of both. And that it .is only
within the memory of men now living
that the celebration of the birth of Christ
has become universal proves only how
tremenduousare the truths which it brought
to light, and which the human mind finds
so hard to grasp.
For what does the Advent signify,
indeed, but the revelation of a new life,
the eternal, by which anew light is thrown
upon the relations between man and man,
between the human and 'the divine, be-
tween the present and the future, between
the things that are seen and the things
that do remain, the transitory and the
permanent? Say what we will of civiliz-
ations in which Christianity has had no
part—of China, and of India, and of
ancient Greece and Rome—their intelli-
gence, their culture. their respect for law,
the consistency of their institutions—
taking them at their best, and owning as
we must the shortcomings of Christendom
its Philistinism, its barbarity its failure
everywhere to roach its own standard—
this, at least, must always be confessed:
that its civilization is formed by an idea
entirely undreamed of before; an idea
whose inspiration is boundless, whose
promise is not limited to the boldest
conception of the human mind, whose
standard is not a conceivable perfection,
but a grand consistencywitheternalbeauty.
The birth of Christ flung wide the gates
of the infinite, the eternal, and by that
one act gave boundless possibilities to
human endeavor. This is not a mere
matter of creed. Skeptic, agnostic. pos-
itivist, no less than the most literal
believer in revealed religion, hold the
great truth of solidarity which makes all
human endeavor, past, present and to
come, but parts of one colossal act— the
uplifting of the race to ideal perfection—
and gives to every mortal span, however
brief, the power of an endless life. That
there are these who do not recognize the
source from which the truth is drawn
shows only what may be the limitations of
even the noblest minds, Thisis the great
truth revealed at the birth of Christ—the
oneness of humanity in him who was the
Son of Man. By this fact both life and
immortality are brought to light. No life
is bounded by its birth anddeath;no work I up business for their road and offering
r i ht rates much less than can be
another may go , on to build upon its thought of by the American line. When
foundation; no pain or pang of human
soul but is felt through all humanity ; no
victory of human endeavor that does not
uplift the whole human race Thus be -

intimated that the Federal Parliament

will postpone the meeting until the

The election of Dr. Chamberlain in
the Ontario Legislature for Dundas Conn
ty was voided Wednesday on the grounds
of bribery by agents. The Court opened
and the lawyer for the respondent gave
up the case and the petition was sustained
with costs. It appears that in a vast
majority of cases our Reform friends are
the culpable ones. •
The other day there passed through
Ottawa, en route to the Eastern States, 22
carloads of dressed turkeys and gees, making
au entire train load of poultry, weighing
440,000 pounds and valued at $45,000.
The duties on this shipment will be about
$45,000.—London Advertiser.
At this rate the poultl y man will be
compelled to sell his turkeys for an enor-
mous price to the Yankees. Forty.five
thousand dollars duty ! No wonder Er-

A. report from the Secretary of State,
in the United States, sent to Congress by
the President, recommends accepting an
invitation from the British Government
to participate in an International Exhibi-
tion to be held at Melbourne in 1888 to
celebrate the centenary of the founding
of New South Wales. and that $50,000 be
appropriated to defray the expenses of a
commissioner to represent the United
States at the Exposition.
In the Supreme Court Friday, judge-
ment was given the Prince County, P. E.
I., election case—Hackett vs. Perry.
The latter being confirmed in the seat,
Judge Taschereau dissenting. This was
an appeal-against,the return of respond-
ent, the Liberal member for Prince
County, P.E.I., in February last, en the
ground that on the occasion of his nom-
iation and election Mr. Perry was not
eligible to be elected, and as he was
alleged to be a member of the House of
Assembly.
The London Observer says the pro-
posed arrangementbetween the Dominion
Government and the Canadian Pacific,
whereby the Government is to take over
the road, guaranteeing 3 per cent, to the
shareholders in perpetuity, has not yet
been formerly submitted. It learns,
however, tnat some persons of great ex-
perience and considerable weirrht regard
the scheme with favor on the ground that
it would be mutually advantageous. It
is scarcely probable though, that any)
such arrangements will be effected.
A movement is on foot by members of
the Congress in Washington to check in
some way the inroads which the C.P.R.
is making upon American Commerce by
reason of the fact that its tariff rates do
not come within the provision of the In-
ter -State Commerce law. The great
trunk lures of the United States have
been complaining for months of the
competition of the Canadian Pacific, and
it is asserted that agents of 1 the latter
corporation overrun all the small towns
in Washington Territory, Oregon and
even into Northern California, drumming

the C.P.R. Company commenced the

The English and Continental journals Wednesday, was one of unusual interest
continue to publish articles varying in to farmers. It appears that the Ontario
ength from a columnto a page dis- Grain and Seed Company bargained with
cussing the chances of an almost immedi-
ate European war. Military circles in
Berlin are imbued with the conviction
that war is imminent, but there is a sus-
picion that in this case the wish is father
to the thoug a ht. One high official in the
German militaryis service quoted as
saying that the situation has assumed a
phase making it possible that war
may
come over night. The Berlin Post
i8
also a ficin believer in the nearness of
war and goes to the length of fixing the.
time during the month of February. The
London Observer, on the other hand,
while deprecating hostilities as the result
of any of the existing differences between
the European powers,believes that theree.

will be no war. "Everyone," it says,
Y,
"inclines to the belief that a Svcsi•eci ri-

hardly possible, Whether Russia wants

Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine
FOR JANUARY, I888. The Christmas
festival receiyes die` recognition in the
January number of Frank 'Leslie's Sunday
Magazine, which begins with a reproduc
tion ,of Milton'sa agnilicent Ode, "On the
Morning, of Christ's Nativity," a poem
whioh cannot be too widely known. An
artiolean "Christmas in other Countries,"
introduces us to some peculiar foreign cis•
toms, and one on "Carols" is interesting
and pleasant. The solid articles in the
nun -riser are one on "George Bancroft," by
Ausburn Towner, and one on "The Tele-
scope and its Revelations," by Arthur
Vauban Abbott, both very properly illus-
trated. There is also a good illustrated
article on "Columbia College." The two
serial stories continue, and there are
short sketches, interesting anecdotes, poems
miscellaneous articles and an abundance of
beautiful illustrations. The number closes
with a fine "Christian Hymn."' This is a
splendid time to subscribe for this first•class
family magazine, as this number begins a
volume.
a large number of farmers, among whop.
was the defendant, William Temple, to
sell them Red Lyon wheat as seed at $15
per bushel, promising to buy back the
crop raisedat the same rate, less 331. per
cent commission. In this case Temple
gave hisnote for'$270 foil eighteen bushels
of this wheat and received a bond in
which the company agreed to sell for him
to responsible parties 36 bushels of the
wheat at the same price before the note
became clue. This note, together with a
great many similar ones, fell into the
hands of John Dennis, who instituted
this action to sceure its payment. The
defendant claimed that the members of
