PRIeCTICA.L SURVEY.
The Passover was instituted at a
critical and important period In the
history- of (God's chosen people and
wwa•s one 'of the great landmarks in
that bistory, marking and com-
memorating with an impressive and
typical ceremony the termination of
their Egypptian ;bondage.
The ten t_:'lagues marked the be-
ginning of the end of this servitude.
They, culu3'anoted In the death of the
first -bore in all Egyi.:, which was
a fit /finale of God's many warnings
to the hardened Pharaoh. To make it
the more impressive and expressive,
God chose to indicate eleariy that
this act (of helves not 81/opine. 'cal-
amity that had overtaken the Egyp-
tians, but 'chat it seas also intended
to. exalt the then despised Israelites
in tlio eyes of their rulers and mas-
ters. It ;was intended to show that
God was in partnership with the Is-
raelites. To eshow this most clearly,
this ce'reniony 'oi ...the Pka;ssover was
inetitutod. It was also highly 'typi-
cal. There 'are three special pointe
.L lamb -The lamb. The basis as
well as the beginning of the special
service connected with the Passover,
was a lamb. -it was to be killed,
the blood saved, the body, whole, to
be roasted (not boiled or eaten raw),
the whole carcase to be eaten with
bitter herbs; and whatever re-
mained must be burned. They were
to eat it standing, loins girded,shoes
on their feet and staff in hand,ready
for journeying. Christ, the Ieamb of
God, is the basis and beginning of
salvation, and time whole ceremony
indicates the completeness of that
salvation, the holiness expected of
God's people, and that they muet be.
pilgrims and strangers liege in the
wilderness world.

BRADSTREET'S TRADE REVIEW.
Trade at Montreal has made some
advance this week in certain. depart-
ments, and the outlook for the balance
of the spring and the early weeks of
the sumer is promising. Improvement is
looked for after the seeding is over,
out the country will became more active.
The cold weather has prevented such
an expansion in the dry goods trade at
Toronto as expected. Stooks are rap-
idly arriving to replace those recent-
ly destroyed by fire. The building trade
here shows much activity, and there are
no signs of any serioue labor troubles.
At Quebec reports from various cor-
respondents throughout this section in-
dicate that rain is wanted.
Wholesale business at the Pacific
coast keeps moderately active, and the
outlook continues to improve. The de-
mand for the Yukon is large.
Busines men through Manitoba and
the vest are in a more cheerful mood
over the outlook for trade. Retail mer-
chants are buying liberally,_ and num-
bers of nen- stores are being stocked.
In Hamilton, according to Brad'
street's reports. the sorting trade has
been very fair Ibis week. Values of sta-
ple goods are firmly held. Remittances
are fair for this season and are expect-
ed to improve soon.
London wholesale trade is showing an
expansion in the movement in some de-
partments. Prices are • firmly held.
There has been a fairly good demand
for goods at Ottawa.
THEY WANT RECIPROCITY.
Mass Meeting at Boston Passes Strong
Resolutions.
Boston, May' es.. -1.1110 'nave meet-
ing in l,tuaneuli Hall to -night, called
by President Henry M. Whitney, of
the Boscon Chamber of Commerce, in
response to a petition signed -7;y,
over 30,000 'business men of Massa-
h'ussets to further the cause of reci-
procity with Canada and Newfound
land, was largely attended, while the
energetic speeches made and a some-
what sensational episode toward the
close served to arouse great enthus-
iasm.
A set of resolutions embodying the
purposes of the meeting and provid-
ing for the appolntm-ens by the Pre-
sident of .the the Chamber of Com-
merce of a committee of 100, which
should lead the fight for reciprocity,
had been read, when former Regre-
sentative Underhill, of Somerville,
jumped to lee feet, and, addressing
the chair, said; "I would like to of -
ler an amendment to combat the
one power behind the throne in Mos-
oaclaussets. I move that our State
Senators, the men who elect our
junior Senator to Washington, be
added to that committee.
"Our junior Senator says he be-
lieves in reciprocity, but add& ,
SWait. When the subject of reel- '
proelty came up in the Mlassechus- •
etts Legislature one after another of
the men assembled there came to me
and said, "I believe in this, but the
word htas come from our junior Sen-
ator at Washington that it must not
lio, and I am bound to think of my
political future' -and it was not."
amid an uproar the amendment was
seconded and accepted, and the re-
solutions were then carried with a
shout.
Presidefbt Whitney presided, and
was the first speaker, his remarks
being along the line of former ad-
dresses. Other speakers were P. K.
roster, editor of The Boston Liber-
ator; President L. A. Treat, of the
Boston Eish Ber'eau, and I0. H. Jones,
a shoe manufacturer. The latter
said in the course of his remarks;
"Wo must continue to combat against
the deaf ear of our delegation in
Congress, or else put a delegation
there that will listen to us when next
New England makes an appeal, aro
that the iaessvier will not come back.
'It cannot bo done.'" 1 I , - •v
