Pat re- plied : " Yes ; they are eo fine that 1 won- der you do not basport some of them iuto England. Let me see—thereai the road to love, strewed with roses ; to matrimony, through nettles ; to honour, through the camp • to prison, through the law ; and te the undertaker's, through physic." ''Have you any road to preferment?" asked the Englishman. "Yes, faith, we have; but that is the dirtiest road in the kingdom." A thoughtful writer describes one -eyed travellers, who see a great deal of some par- ticular class of objects and are blind to all others, and adds : "The Irish jaunting car, in which the passengers sit back to back, is a sort of type of what befalls many tourists in Ireland. Each sees a great deal, and re- ports faithfully what he has seen on one side of th,e road, and the other on the other. One will have seen all that is green, and the other, all that is orange." A fanatical Sabbatarian writes: "The Sunday newspaper is a crayfish in the dikes of misrule, a crayfish that undermines the banks, behind which the racecourse, the theatres, the saloon, the gambling dens, &c., are roaring for exit." Another newspaper described a fire by saying that the red flames danced in the heavens, and. flung their fiery arms about like a black funeral pall, until Sam Jones got on the roof and doused them out with a pail of water. The answer of Apollonius to Vespasian is not without humour and instruction. Ves- Diemen asked him "What caused Nero's overthrow 1" He answered : "Nero could touch and tune the 'harp well; but in gev. ernment, sometimes he used to wind the pins too high, sometimes to let them down too low." And certain it is thhat nothing de- stroysy so rnuch as untimely interchange of power pressed too far and relaxed too much. George Stephenson was once asked by a scientific lady what he considered the most pewerful force in nature. "Oh," said he in a gallant spirit, I will soon answer that question : it is the eye of the woman for the man who loves her; for if a woman look with affection on a young man and he should go to the uttermost ends of earth, the recollection of that look will bring him back. There is no other force in nature that could do that." A rural poet said of his lady -love " She is graceful as a water -lily, whffe her breath is like an armful of clover." An American poet wrote a euloey of Washington, whose glorious life should compose a volume as Alps immortal, spotless as its snows. The stars should be its type, its press the age, the earth its binding, and the' sky its page. Truly, some American poets go in for marvels of metaphor. "A cunning knave can form no notion of a nobler nature," says the same writer. "e is like the goats on Robinson Crusoe's island, which saw clearly everything below them, but very imperfectly what was above them; so that Robinson could never get at them from the valleys ; but when he came upon them from the hilltop, he took them quite by surprise." To say that a coquette is a rosebush from which each young beau plucks a leaf, and the thorns are left for the husband, is not very complimentary. Compliments are the coin that people pay a man to his face; sarcasm, what they pay him out with be- hind his back. Equally ready with a similitude was the negro who, when giving' evidence in court, was asked about th4onesty of.a neighbour. "I know nothing ag'iinst him," was the re- ply; "but if I was a chicken, I would roost high when ho was hanging around" Ridicule, says a Germou critic, is like blow with the fist wit, like the prick of a needle; irony, like the sting of a thorn; and humour, the plester which heals all these wounds. All of these qualities may be found in some metaphors. A. farmer said : "One thing I don't like aleout city folks—they be either ao stuck up that yer can't reach 'em with a haystack pole, or so blamed friendly that they forget to pay their board." A talented lady who lectured before a literary society, speaking of Job and his patience, remarked that all her sympathies went out to Mrs. Job, who had to make the poultices. The Chinese call overdoing a thing, a huneh-back making a bow.

There is a family in tide city who are de- pendent at this moment upon a little child for all the present eunehine of their lives. A few weeks ago the young wife aud mother was etrieken down to die. It was ee sudden, so dreadful when the grave family physician called theirs together in the parlor, and in his solemn professional way intimated to them the truth—there was no hope ! Then the question arose among them, who would tell her. Not the doctor! It would be eruel to let the maid science vo to their dear one on such alFerrand. Not the aged !nether, whe was to be left childless and alone Nor the young hueband, who was walking the floor with clenched hands and rebellious heart. Not—there was only one other, and at this moment he looked up from the book he had been playing with unnoticed by them all and asked gravely: "Is my mamma, doin' to die? " Then without waiting for an answer he sped from the room and up stairs as fast a his little feet would carry him, Friends and neighbors were watching by the sick woman. They wonderingly no- ticed the pale face of the child as he climbed on the bed and laid his small head On his mother's pillow. "Mamma, " he asked in sweet, caressing tones, is you ' fraicl to die ?" The mother looked at him with swift in- telligence. Perhaps she had been thinking of this "Who—told—you---Charlie ?" she asked, faintly. "Doctor an' papa an' body, " he whispered."Mamma, doar lit- tle mamma, dean' be 'fraid to die, 'ill you." 1 "No, Charlie," said the young mother after one supreme pang of grief; , no inam- ma won't be afraid " "due' shut your eyes in 'e dark, mamma; teep hold my ham— an an when you open 'ern, mamma, it '11 be all there. " When the family gathered awe-stricken ' at the bedside, Charlie held up his little I hand. "Hu -s -h I My mamma doan to sleep. Her won't wake up here any more 1" And so it proved. There was no heart- rending farewell, no agony of parting, for when the young mother woke she hadpassed beyond, and as baby Charley said: "It was all light there 1" Forming a Union in Japan. The missionaries of the different Protes- tant churches in Japan are trying to form something in the shape of a union. Those belonging to the Episcopal body took the initiative. There are, however, apparently not a few difficulties to be met and overcome 1 before matters come to a practical bearing. The bishops and missionaries of the Church of England and of the Protestant Episcopal church. of the United States, at a meeting in Osaka on the Stla of February last, adopted ' a resolution to the effect that they desired the establishment "in Japan of a Christian t Church which, by imposing no non-essential conditions of communions, shall include as many as possible of the Christians of this country." This and. other resolutions were sent to the secretaries of the other Christian bodies in the country, and immediately it -was found that the great difficulty would be over the settlement of what was to be looked , upon as " essentiaL" The Presbyterians I say everywhere that they believeth t a " presbyters " and " bishops " form one I order. The Episcopalians say they are differ- ' ent. Well, is this to be looked 00 05 an es- sential or the other thing? Here is the latest stage matters have reached. The different Presbyterian churches in Japan have a anion among themselves and call their united body the "United church of Christ in Japan." After conference over the proposals of the Episcopal brethren the Presbyterian missionaries argued' upon the following questions which were sent for 1. Do the Bishops d h lgyfhl answer :— Osaka conference regard the Episcopate as one of the "non-essential" conditions re- ferred to in the resolution? 1. Do they acknowledge that the Presby- terian church is as truly a church of Christ as is a church of the Anglican communion? 3. Are they ready by word and deed pos- itively to acknowledge the validity of the ordination of the 'ministers of the United Church of Christ in Japan? Are they ready to receive the Sacrament of the Lord's Sup- per a eir hands? It will be interesting to see what sort of pswers are returned to these questions. It is very evident that on any other terms than those implied in the above queries, there could be no union. There would be merely absorption. Discouraging.

A starcaug Prophecy concerning. nusialaws d. titiwtling pgroupehenee.y coueeruing the Queen of England has recently been pub- lished in the columns of a London weekly newspaper. The preeent is declared to be a eupremely critical day for Victoria. Whether it is sudden illness, or assassina- tion, or serious accident, or death that is to overtake the sovereign, is not specifically set forth. The vaticination only one so far as to warn the Queen ancl her Privy Couneil that there is some hidden denger lurking in eecret for her today, and that it is probably connected with a black conspiracy, ' Eminent British astrologers and astron- omers, like Mr. C. C. Massey, M. A., of Oxford,:and Mr, Alfred J. Pisrce, of Cam - budge, editor of Zadkiel Almanac early in the year predicted danger to the 'Queen. Indeed, so far back as October, 1886, when the Almanac was published, Mr. Pearce #airke jubilee of Her Majesty's happy reign will be celebrated in 1887 with pomp and rejoicing. Unfortuastely, two primary rections and certain positions at the solar revolution, pre -signify some trouble and some debility of health. er maxmoharp that certain well known "mediums" who profess to receive messages from the spirit world are of the same opinion as the learned astrologers. The spirit voices are in accord with the teaching of the stars. Thus those who have made a study of the occult of sof- ences, and those who claim to be the med- ium of spiritual manifestations, as well as others who claim to be careful observers of time in Great I3ritain, are all. agreed that not only eomething of a dire and startling nature is to happen the Queen, but they are also agreed upon the date of this event. This concensus is particularly remarkable as respects the date. "The catastrophe," says the paper to which we refer, "for as such it must be regarded, is considered by l some to be connected with the Socialists, but on what ground is not very manifest un- less another riot is to be apprehended. The black conspiracy 'might turn out to be an effort on the part of the Socialists to obtain notoriety by a great display during the pro- cession of royalty through the streets in this the jubilee year. Any such attempt would be almost sure to bring about a collision be- tween them and the forces of order. But we happen to know that the authorities are already on their GUARD AGAINST THIS DANGER." Dismissing as of indeterminate value the spiritualistic revelations and the ideas of ob- servers of the times, it will be proper to in- vestigate the astrological aspect of the pre- diction. Queen Victoria according to the official bulletin published' in the Courier, was hornet 4h. 15m. on the morning of May 24, 1819, at Kensington Palace. About six de- grees of Gemini were on the ascendant and 2 degrees 24 minutes of Aquareus on the mid - heaven. Four of the signs are found "in- tercepted "—Virgo in the fifth house, Pisces in the eleventh, Scorpio in the sixth and Taurus in the twelfth. The sun and Moon, separated only one degree thirty-three min- utes, had just risen when Victoria was born, Jupiter was in the midheaven and in sextile aspect with Mars. These were exceedingly fortunate positions, and they were the un- mistakable signs of the brilliant future of the babe. They indicated such a future as Shakespeare describes the well known lines: To whom the heavens in thy nativity Adjudged an olive branch and laurel crows As likely to be blest in peace and war. THE HOROSCOPE OF HER MAJESTY indicates strong good sense without any con- spicuous intellectuality. She has fine artis- tic appreciation, which is an attribute of in- stinct more than of reason, She has what for want of a better phrase is "human na- ture" intensed Shef lfill the Johnsonian ideal of being a good hater. She sticks to her friends. She has a strong pre- d'I f ul' ' t . Sheh h courage of her convictions, and she is opin- ionated and. stubborn. 'She is industrious, persevering and thrifty and had she been born out of the purple, of humble parents, she would have made a helpful, loving •and industrious wife for a poor man. These traits her horoscope unmistakable disclose and such a woman the whole world knows her to be. ox MAY 9, 1887 THE PLANET MARS by secondary direction, was traversing the, Queen's ascendant. There is also a prim- ary direction, computed by epherical trigon- ometry, also found to be in force—the quadrature of the Sun and Moon in what is termed "the zodiac converse." Furthermore, St t d ' t degrees and fifty minutes of the sign Cancer, which is quitesnear an eked quadrature of Mars in the radicalfigure. These are the three threat- ening aspects. Their significance as setforth by the Most learned astrologers are about as follows: (1.) Mars traversing the ascendant by sec- ondary direction—" Accidents or diseases; hemorrage frequently results; danger of homicide or of being killed. (2.) Quadrature of Sun and Moon in zodiac converse—" Troubles and losses, ill -health, mental anxiety; if either luminary is hyleg (or 'giver of life,' which the Sun is in the Queen's horoscope), either an eruptive fever ar op a mia is threatened." (3.) The scpia,re of Saturn and Mars simply . . tends to intensify the dangers imminent d' positions. b ld t begin proa th at point of perf eetion which we have arrived at Mr, Bnek ley and Mr Bartholomew are the pioneers of this new system of train- ing, Mr Buckley has spent his life among horses and lute the most complete control over them. Their affection for Inen is something wonderful. They are quiet and contented in hie presence and even manifeat pleasure, but let him be absent and they leecome tmeasy, impatient and actually watch for hie coming, ' robably dangerous hemorrage is by no means improbable, not perhaps to -day, but - when the above positions will be in a mea- sure accentuated by the transit of Mars over the place of the Sun on June 2 next; by the same planet's transit over the plaee of the Moon on June 4, and by'ethe Iran it of Mars over the ascendant on June S. Whatever befalls the present is a highly critical time for the Queen. But there Os no destiny or fate in astrology. Danger may be averted by foreknowledge and care. As the Scripture says: "Tho wise man seeth e danger aoli , the foolish goeth by and is punished." Her faithful subjects may rest assured that the Queen 11 not suffer harm if protection and watch. fulness avail. All Things Come to Him Who Waits.

The Special Train Used by 'Irictorta Iller Journey s to Sconaud. The royal train, provided by the London & Northwestern Company, consists of twelve vehicles, counting the tem royal saloons and omitting the trucbk, The Queen's saloons are in the centre of the train, and these commodious ciirria es, fitted for day and night traveling, Her a. jesty occupies with Princess Beatrice. There are two beds in the sleeping compartment, which opens from the day saloon. The beds are simple, in green and gilt furniture and fittings, something like elaborate " cot " in shape; and generally the interior fittinge of the train leave nothing to be desired. The floors are carpeted, the conk:1gs padded, the wide windows curtained, the lamps deeply shaded. Electric bells communicate with the attendants or the officials, eald by press. hag A button at the end of a long variegated cord or bell.pull, the alarm is sounded in the Von. A separate electric button is fixed in each side of the sleeping compartment, by which the attendants may be summoned; another button when preased will cause the train to stop as quickly ma may be. There are the Westinghouse, vacuum, and ordinary brakes fitted to the train, which are worked as required by the exigencies of the loconto- tives of different companies over those lines Her Majesty travels, some engines being fit- ted with vacuum, and others with the West- inghouse brakes. The usual furniture, comfortable but sim- ple, and a lavatory, are ad included in the Queen's ealoons. There are hooks and racks for parcels, wraps, bird cages and small bundles, of which Her Majesty and ...the Princess convey a good supply. The late John Brown used to occupy a seat in the royal day saloon, back to the engine as the train .stood, and facing the door of the Queen's apartment, so as to be within call at once. The Royal saloon, devoted on this trip to Prince Henry of Battenberg, who was tem- porarily separated from his wife, is one used by the Prince of Wales and fitted witli smoking cabinet and bedroom, with two beds, a lavatory and a stove. The Queen's carriages are warmed in the usual way, with hot water. Nothing is wanted to render the journey as little irksome and as littlefatiguing as pos- sible. The carriages exteriorly are bright and clean and newly polished. The wheels are "solid "—blocks of wood taking the place of spokes; the springs are massive; the tires glide smoothly over the rails.; the gas is a patented article ; the carriage steps let down as in road carriages, and the wide.plate-glass windows permit an extensive view of the country through which the train is passing. The train, we will suppose, has been sup- plied with gas and tested generally. It is then handed over, in good condition and in working order, athe Southwestern officials, who acknowledge its receipt. and take it carefully to Gosport, where Her Majesty will entsr it at 6:40 cn the afternocn of Tuesday, the 17th of August. The luggage is in the vans ; the parcels, wraps, rugs and pet birds, Ste., are all in their places ; the attendan s and the suite are seated. Time, 6 : 45; and the train, with a southwestern engine attached, quits the Royal Clarence Yard, Gosport, for Edin- burgh direct, passing over the lines of four different, companies en route—viz., the Snuthwestern, Grand Western, Northwest- ern, and North British railways. Her Majesty is supplied with a special time -table printed elegantly in mauve on thick white paper, bordered. in gold, and surmounted by the Royal arms.

Cricket, that great game ot centuries that in spite of the efforts of its devotees to fan into life, is ever languid in Canada, is said to be losing its grip upon Australia. The consequence of this is said to be the patience that was once its pre-eminent virtue. It is the Melbourne, Australia, Tele9raph that calls attention to the fact, and here is what it says :—" The nearly empty seats of the East Melbourne Cricket Ground, on March 11 and 12 last, bore eloquent testimony to the decay of cricket as a popular sport. Even on the Saturday half -holiday there were not 500 spectators to watch the per- formance of the best bats hi England. let another proof of the decline of cricket is supplied in the mostpractical of all forms by ' the balance -sheet of the Victorian Cricket A.ssocia.tion. Two seasons back the associa- tion was able to divide £1,050 amongst the clubs represented in it; last year they divided £210; this year they will divide the ma nificent sum of £5 sterling, a divi- dend of, say, 3s. 4d. per club. There is no test like the test of coin, and these figures I show which way the current is flowing. Next year, instead of a dividend even of 3s. 44., there will probably be a big levy on the associated clubs. The secret of this decline I in Popularity of the great national sport is sefficiently plain. For the spectators at 1 least it has ceased to be sport, and become ; an endurance. A style of play is in the as- • cendant— tame, tedious, spiritleis--which makes cricket simply an abhorence to flesh and blood.
