The new Governochnernl and his wife paid their first official visit to To- ronto on Monday last, and at night his Excellency was the honored guest at a dinner given by the Toronto Club. Af- jtcr being duly “ toasted,” he responded in 'a sensible and well-worded speech, which he concluded as follows : “I have been reminded frequently by your press, although I do not think ,it is necessary. that it is not the prov- "ince of n Governor. General to interfere. There are, however, some subjects on which men of all parties are agreed, and on which it is permitted for me. to ex- press an opinion without running the risk of raising a single dissenticnt voice, and one of them is the hope that the ,clnsh of race and creed conflict shall never be heard in Canada. and the cou- viction that in the complete union be- tween the two great races lies'thc secret and strength of your future. The eyes gof' England are at present focused on 'Canada, and the eyes of a large part of Europe also. The opportunities you are able to offer are attracting a large popu- lation within your borders. America is vainly trying to stop the outflow of her farmers into the. Dominion. and every British family that comes into Canada is a distinct addition to the national wealth. The fear is sometimes express- ,ed that American citizens may,become Tdangei'ous citizens of the Dominion, but that is not my opinion. They are not here long before they find that they on- jo ' greater freedom and greater security than they did in the United States, and, in my opinion, the more Americans that gcome, the better. They bring capital, experience and character. They come from the same fountain head that we do, and I believe they are as glad to he'- bomc the loyal sons of Canada as we are glad to number them among our chil dren. But when we look into the crys- tal and try to forecast the development which the future has in store for Cana- da, it is well that we should guard against allowing the vulgarity of a swollen head to blunt the edge of our efficiency. How to add to the great we have been. endowed is the problem ,before- the people and the statesmen of Canada, and which they may be relied upon, with your assistance, I trust, to satisfactorily solve.” The spirit waist- In an article headed “ E'ducationists . and the Bible,” the Toronto Globe says: " Two things are needed on the part of and hismry of the Bible can be made effective as instruments of education: competent knowledge of the subject and ,aspirit touched by the spirit of the .

And of the two it is the spirit that is neededâ€"unless that is acquired. the time devoted to biblical study could be more profitably spent. who “ profess and call themselves Chris- tians " know more or less of the letter of the Bible, but the great majority of them give but slight evidence of being infected by its spiritâ€"especially in horse trading, or, indeed, any kind of busi- ness transactions. cancludcs thus : , " And as in the teaching of'the clas- sics there is needed the spirit of tho c'asslcs, so the literature or the Bible must be interpreted by those who have the insight of sympathy. The brutish man cannot know, neither can the fool- ish understand. But in the hands of reverent and disciplined educatiooists the literature of the Bible Would be the finest instrument of intellect unl and ethical culture. it is the purest “ well of English undefiled," by it the life of the spirit would be nurtured in the midst of the oppression and strain of the utilities, and the use of it woull 9.9 KENT ST. steady and stimulate to the highest en. deavor all the powers alike ol'tcnchor and. pupil. ngucaetiouists do wisely in.

Under the above heading the Peter- borough Examiner says : “ The Manitoba incident which has been howled lot i an outrage is a simple afl‘air as to facts and meaning. The whole row was raised apparently to draw attention from the North west on- touomy bill, in respect of which the in- cendiuries had by tho‘facts been put out of occupation. The facts are simple. Manitoba wanted its boundaries extend: ed; it demanded that a big slice of the best and most populous parts of the North-cht Territories adjoining should be added to Manitoba, and that it; should also be extended to Hudson’s The people of the Territories would n’t have their ter- ritory looted, and Sir Wilfrid supported their position and refused Manitoba’s extension to the west. In regard to the Hudson Bay extension. he refused at the moment to accede to the demand of Manitoba, on the ground that, before the matter was settled, the right of On- tario in regard to territorial access «to Hudson Bay should be considered. Sir Wilfrid Laurier stated in the House that this was the position he took before the alleged threat of Mgr. Sharrctti that the cxtcution of Manitoba’s boundaries depended upon that province passing the school amendments he suggested. This alleged threat: of Mgr. Sbarrctti was made without any authority from Sir Wilfrid Laurier, and privately and personally, to a tncmber of the Manito- ba Government, which had been prciv- ously “ dickering ” with the Papal Ah legato, Sir Wilfrid has not refused jus- tice to Manitoba, has not refused to ex- tend her boundaries, except in respect of robbing Saskatchewan of the best part of her territory. The extension to Hudson Bay is still in abeyanec. and it is on the books that Manitoba will have her territory extended to Hudson Bay, but not to the prejudice of‘ the rights of Ontario, which must also have a slice of the shore line of this great inland sea. Manitoba will get all the ‘ territory which she should have with regard to the rights of Ontario. l‘here is no rea- son for hurry in the matter. The terri- tory which Manitoba demands, but which Sir Wilfrid .Laurier has properly decided should bcglshared with Ontario, is not likely to disappear. Manitoba docs n’t need it to raise money upon. There is, or was, no great urgency in the matter. except to the firebrand poli- ticians, who intruded the subject at a time when they thought they could make political capital out of drawing a red herring across the discussion of the North-west autonomy bill, which had not yielded the capital expected.” I lames‘ Church- The Church of Ehglaud‘eerviccs last Sunday were entirely in harmony with that Easter spirit of rejoicing which characterizes all earnest Christians as they commemorate the blessed fact of the Savior’s resurrection. In addition to the special chants, hymns and script- urelcssous for Easter Day, the-choir _ rendered a very beautiful “Why scck ye the living among the dead ?” the soles being wellitaken by Mrs. R. Mitchell and Miss Mchugall. Appropriate sermons were preached by the Rector, the morning, text being Extidus 12:26,27, and the evening Rev. 1:16, Good congregations were present at both. services, the another of Easter _ communioants being greater than in past years. The church, too, donned a festive appearance, having been tastily decorated with beautiful plants and flowers, thus hasmoniziugv with the brightness of the services; the Easter lilies, so. pure and white, seeming to silently teach the joyous truth of the Saviour’s triumph over death and the grave, and to say not only " Christ is risen,” but also that “ the pure in: heart shall see God.” *F.‘ . The- anuuul vestry meeting of the church was held in the vestry on Mon- day evening. the Rector presiding. Mr. C. \V'. Burgoyne was. rc-appointcd warden by the Rector, the people elect- ing Mr. E. G.

They showed that quite a number. both of the headsof fauiilies‘ and the younger members of the congre- gation, are without envelopes, and sug- gested that a committee be appointed to wait on these with a view to placing before them the advantages of the eu- vclopc system and inducing them to adopt this method of contributing to the church funds. Mr. G. H. McGee was then appointed and consented to undertake this work. Messrs. T. H. Roberts and J. J. Neviscn were elected lay delegates to the Synod. which meets in Toronto next Juno. -Aftcr the usual votes of thanks to the retiring warden (Mr H. A. Robinson. who is at present in England), to the Parish Vll'oi'kers, to the organist and members of the choir, and to the. teachers and officers of the Sunday school, an encouraging vcsu'y meeting was brnutrht to a close with prayer and the benediction of the Rector.
