GENERAL OBSERVATIONS I$ By W. H. T. The world as yet is far from co inciding with our conceptions of heav- en. It may be that, as far as we are personally concerned. we are each, by the kind ordering of Providence, able to pursue the quiet and even tenor of our way. We may, each^be provided amply with food mid raiment and with shelter. We may be blest with all the joys fair friendship can bestow—all that from health and prosperous for- tune flow. so that oft as the morning dawns our heartfelt gratitude ascends. Bet it is what is all the time taking place in the world around us that con- tinually draws on our sympathies, and checks our mirth. for we cannot but feel that light-heartedness i11 becomes us when we are surrounded by so much sorrow and suffering—so much. pain and misery, and so much in the relations between countries and be- tween different classes of meta, that is far from being what it ought to be. s*s The daily papers each day teem with accounts of railway and auto ac- cidents, attended with loss reef life, with accounts et' drowning of elec- trocution, of mine explosions, with their heart rending horrors. Then, earl} last Sunday morning, was the burning of the Wawa hotel in Muskoka.: This hotel was beautiful in appearance, but so flimsy in mater- ial and 'construction that in Tess than half an hour it was burned to the ground, involving in its destruction ten girls. The serious disagreement between England and France over German af- fairs, fills us with grave apprehension, •l'lle troubles in the labor world, for which we are informed on good auth- ority, the oppressive greed. of Capital, is largely responsible, call forth our sympathy for the lien who work hard and risk their lives for wages that are insufficient to procure for tlient and their wives and children the bar- estnecessariesof life, whine their em- ployers are living in a state of luxury, which even princes could not com- mand in the not far distant past. s:. * '5 The British subject in Canada who is loyal' to the great Empire to which he ar"she is proud to belong, and who is solicitous for its interests, cannot but be paired by the eyyideuces from time to time of the indifference, yea the positive disloyalty to the Empire ofPremier king, and of some of the members of his Cabinet, 0h, for the return of that age, if it ever existed, 'when nn11e were for the party, when. all were for the state, hen the great than helped the poor, and the poor man lov'd the great.", Verily, it is a world of sorrow, of sighing land of disappointment, and yet we rejoice to say that.`notwith- standing, there is much in the world to make es glad. ** So 1.)eVdlera is caught.
