In America we can go to market to cater for the table, here they go as the case may be to the poulterer, fruiterer, butcher, green grocer, and fishmonger. They buy vegetables unknown to us, such as sea kale, vegetable marrow, eto., and cakes like the simnel, Yorkshire parkin, ormekirks, bunters' nuts, curled brands snaps, hot cross buns, maids of honor, and so on indefinitely. Many of these specialties are wholly obscure or intentionally misleading in their names, but what sort of moral character can you expect in a people who speak English, but .never ealt their butter ? Perhaps, however, their errors are of the head end not of the heart, and, like Capt. Corcoran in the old Greek drama of "Pinafore," they "mean well but don't know." Missions and Missionaries. Rev. Dr, B. G. Wilder has resign- ed the editorship of The Missionary Review, and will return to India as .a missionary without delay. Miss Lily Lyman, daughter of Mr, Theodore Lyman, Montreal, goes to Bombay as a missionary un• der the American Board of Missions. A Seminary for the Education of IYIissionaries among the Jews has been eetablisbed at Leipzig, under the personal direction of Professor Delitzscb, This is the eecond in- stitution of the hind in the world, the other being in London. Missionaries in India who cannot endure the fierce heat of the warm ;months on the plains are in the habit of visiting some native semi. Melina. Thus those in Central In- •dia go up to Kashmir. The mem- 'bars of the Telugu Mission have re- •oently secured a retreat at Coonoor, on the Nirgiri Hills. It is 6,000 feet above the sea and this elevation makes the air always cool and sweet. In this way the heavy expense of a return to America is saved. Twenty years ago Jacob Schein - mann, a Palish Jew, came to the conclusion, through independent thought, that the Nfessiah, the sun of David was the true Saviour. For this ho was transported to Siberia, where for fifteen years, almost un- heeded, he labored among his fellow exiles. He chanced to pick up a pamphlet by the eminent Rabinow• itz, with whom be at ones) commun. icated. Since that time he has been busy disseminating his views through pamphlets called "The Voice of One Crying in the 'Wilder. nese." Delitzech'e Hebrew trans- lation of the New Testament Id e]ng' oily read and studied by the Siher- 50 on O'Connor. Both ; m013 were polling under the disadvantage of having only one flag to mark the 0o11rse between the 'start and the through the crowd to where the tuffs- turn. There was a remarkable siouary stood, mad, causing the lack of interest in the race and the beast to kneel demi, asked the mis- , absence of pleasure boats that ns- slonary to mount it. This he did wallyheat in a great part of the course iu au exciting aequatio event did not tend to lessen this dised- vantage. Consequently Hamas steering was very faulty. When he got to within one hundred yards or to of the turning buoy he was twen- ty-five yards north of it and had to row in. O'Connor steered a better couree and turned the buoy several boat lengths ahead, of Hamm. Then followed a very pretty contest for the next half mile, dnriug which Hamm continued to gain on O'Con- nor, After two miles or a little more of the course had been cover- ed, Hamm was nearly even with O'Oonnor, but just after getting out of his water the Dartmouth oars- man crossed over and fouled O'Oon- nor, who had the south side of the course. O'Connor called foul and throw up his hand. Kamm alert threw up his hand, probably to indicate a fon.. Both men had stopped rowing. O'Connor started off again almost immediately, and was leading by half a dozen lengths when Hamm commenced to follow. O'Connor continued to gain, and confidence in his chances of euoeess went tip so rapidly that a bet of 100 to 60 in hie favor was made in the aeferee's boat. 'O'Connor steadily increased his lead and finished fully sixteen boat lengths ahead of Hamm in 20:16 minutes. Hamm did not continue after O'Connor passed the vinning point. O'Connor rowed up beside the referee's boat and called out "How's that referee ?" to which Dave Ward replied, "All right." Nir. Keenan was much dismayed. over the result of the race. He said : "Hamm has lost half a dozen races in just the same way aa he lest this one." The race was for $2,000 a gide. When O'Connor finished the race he was rowing 25 while Hamm was rowing 32 strokes to the minute. O'Connor has a fine, long, easy, swinging, steady stroke, into which he seems to throw the whole weight of his body. and from Ins position on the els• phenl's back sold over 170 portions of the 'Scriptures—more than he had done en any other day during his journey. The driver was 0 Mussulman, but he wanted to see fair play. Prof. Drummon, in a missionary meeting at Northfield, referred to cant in mission and other entorprie- es. On being asked by one of the students what be meant by cant, he said : "There is such a thing as the religion of a young man and there is euoil a thing as the religion of an old woman. Now, when a young man talks as if he had an old woman's religion, that is cant." The Missionary Review, published at Princeton, N. J., is perhaps the beet missionary magazine iu Amer- ica. Ito founder and editor, Rev. Dr. R. G. Wilder, wad for many years a missionary in India and has an intelligent acquaintance with mission work in all parts of the world. Dr. 1Vilder has resigned the editorship of the Review that he may spend the little strength and few yeare left in and for India. His wife and daughter, both devoted missionaries, go back to India with him. Dr. Wilder, although broken in health, hopes to be able to gather a native audience in his own house, help educate native converts, pas- tors and preachers and do some- thing in improving and increasing the Dlarattli literature. He ie a most devoted, courageous and her• oto missionary. Rev, W. H. Murray, a Presbyter- ian minister in Scotland, has made a most .important discovery of a method by which the thousands of blind people in Chino can readily learn to read by the use of about only 400 characters, It is propos- ed to use these blind readers as Bib- le readers to the Chinese, to whom it will be a marvellous thing that blind beggiars---in China the blind are always baggers—should become readers attracting crowds. The system of study has now been so -greatly improved as to en- able our missionaries m China to make as much progress in acquiring the Oiliness language in nine months as they formerly did in fir - teen, Dr. Milne, speaking of the difficulty in his day, eaid :—"To ac- quire the Chinese is a work for men with bodies of brass, lungs of steel, heads of oak, hands of spring steel, eyes of eagles, hearts of apostles, memories of angels and lives of Methuselahs." Hudson Taylor, speaking in Scotland recently, said : —"The acquisition of the language is no insuperable obstacle ; among the many who have gone out to China I have never known ono, male or female, who had absolutely failed iu mastering it, while most of them have gained a practical ac- quaintance with it in a compara- tively short time." The O'Connor -Hamm at Toronto. Race The debut of William O'Connor, of Toronto, as a professional single Bonller, in hie race with Albert Hamm, of Dartmouth, N.S., on Saturday afternoon, was fur him a most satisfactory one. Tho oars- men were called out by Referee Dave Ward about 4:30 p.m. Hamm appeared first in a Ruddick boat.
