The
proudest Sovereign in the world is
Queen Victoria. She dignifies woman-
hood and raotherhood., ancl she is fit to
sit in empire. There is one reason
: why the English throne is the strong: -
est also, because it is so many legged.
It stands on thirty millions ef people.
It represents,the interest -of ±,4 masses'
of the 'subjectS. Another reason why
England is the strongest nation is be-
) cause it is the most Christian nation,
becatise it hasthe mtaralpOwer. It has
- more than we have., We like to talk
about ourselves on the. 4th of July --
we love to fan ourselves with eulogies;
but we are not to be compared to -day
with ,old England. I know her surly
'faults. I know her stubborn. conceit.
but taking her up ,on thet one side and.
down on the other, there is•not another
nation that represents so much

EDUCATION IN QUEBEC—M. Buies
gives the Lanterne a sad - aceount of
„
this Province. He says the e-cclesias-
tikal., agriculture collegeal of St. Anne,
teaches that fetes, masses, and bene -
actions are the necessary requisites for
good crops,. although it, admits the
plough as necessary in the =process,
The rich crops of the priests' farms are
in a striking contrast with the crops of
the habitans -;but, instead of attribut-
ing them to, minure, they are regarded
as the rewards of devotion. Mr./Buies
also translates from T. Widd hi S ac-
count of the teaching of the deaf and
'd umb, as a- fitting accompaniment to
the above, • Asto the literary institu-
tions, Mr. Buies says-: " The great part
of what are called the instructed classes
are very stiperficial," and adds, " I will
give my own case. On. leaving the
Seminary of Quebec (one of the highest
educationalinstitutions of Fiench Can-
ada), after my, "rhetoric,' I went to
Fiance to finish • my studies, had

In a county Farish- Scotta.n.d, the
minister and the reeling elder went
over the muir tot -visit an old parishoner
