He noticed the curve of the isuthermal lines to the northward along the western coast of the Scandi- navian peninsula, carried thither by the warmth of the Gulf Stream, which kept the Norwegian ports open all the year, while the ocean in the same lat itude on the American side was solid ice, from October to June. It was no wonder that Russia coveted these ports; her geography was incomplete without either Turkey or Lapland -- There was snow in Germany before he left it; he entered Stockholm in a snow-storm, and the thermometer gradually sunk ashe went porth. until at last he found the mercury and his nese frozen ot the same time.

He had felt quite as cold at home as at any time in Lapland ; aud he remembered hav- ing heard Dr. Kane say, on his last return from the Arctic Sea, in a aw October day, that he suffered more then from cold than at any time on his voyage. Still, the cold was not to be smiled at.

I'am here on a politi week. The Lapps were taller than they were generally supposed fo be.-- Their Paganism left them 50 years ago, and the only man who was well acquainted with the old legends and superstitions, was now shut np in a Norwegian prison for having commit- ted a murder while under religious ex. citement. The clergy had great in- fluence over the Lapps. Most of them way, and their lot was no enviable oue. They lived in huts scarcely bet- ter than the average, and the officiated in churches in which fire never was kindled. Said one of the pastors to him: " The wonls scem to frecze as " they leave my mouth, and they fall "on the congregation like white "snow." The reindcer, which was to the Lapp all that the camel was to the Arab, could never be tamed. They were always liable to turn round and stare at you, and there was no way to start them but by getting ont of the sledge, turning them around. and tak- ing one's chauce to jump in as one could. But the Lapps had infinite pa- ticnce with them. He had known a Lapp to start a reindeer fifty times in a day without losing his temper. Mr Taylor concluded by a graphic de scription of the dwarf-life of the vege. table kingdom in the North, and the sudden coming of the northern Sam- mer. Man's Susaptibility of of Mental Cultare. Such is the consivitisn of man that he is capable of br z fitted for states of life for which he was once wholly un qualified. The human mind is suscep tible of great changes, from the circum. stances in which it is placed, and from the attention and culture which it re ceives. On this su<cepribility, the whole system of education is founded. A per =ou's estimate of the value of educati will be very much in proporiion strength and vividues< of his belief in the capacity of the mind for cultivation. On this same bell will depend his hope, for the intellectual improvement of indi. viduals, as well as for the elevation of nations in the scale of civilisation and improvement. Were the mind incapa. ble of acquiring nowledge, of securing dyling, of : 1 the occupation of the Yeacher would be sone, and his office have no existence. Were alsn, incapable of imp! ment in the artis'of life, and destitute of the power of mental and social elevation under the appliance of the means of cul. tare, the philanthropist would cherish no hope of the advancement of society, and the Christian no expectation of moral re. demption of the barbbarous nations of the earth under the influence of Christi: anity. The fact that mankind are sus- ceptible of improvement is a fact full of significancy in its bearings on the cause of education and the hopes of our race. The plant and the animal are not re- quired to become a different thing from what they already are at the moment of their mature growth. The purpase of their existence is realized in its full ex. tent by the fact alone of their material nature and physical organization. But with man it is quite otherwise. © He is destined for improvement. This is the law of his being. Instinct is less in man than in animal, because man is con. stituted with this susceptibility for im- provement--the power of scquisition-- the capability for advancement and ele- vation. The physical man, however ad- mirable may be organization, is not the tive man. Man as a barbarian, or as a corporeal giant, is not all he is capa. ble of being. [le has a higher patore and a higher mission. He has a suscep- ibility for improvement--for intellectual social and moral culture. The barbari- an may be a civilised man. Under the influence of education, in its largest sense, he may be elevated to a high po- sition of honour, enterprize and happi- _ {mixed and blended sion 'was stated ; that is, that I come here to feel the pulse of the Colonies with regard to a Federal Union of the provinces. Now, | think it only due to myself to say that there is not the slightest foundation whatever for that report. lam lhiere in no political ca- pacity Whatever. Certainly ia good deal of ¢ curiosity has been experienced in England aso what, would be the feclings of the Canadian people with regard to a Federal Union. And per. haps such a curigsity is natural. inas- much as the subject of a Federal Union was made part of a recent address from the throne. [Cheers] I have no doubt English Ministers participate in that feeling ; and as I happen to be on very good terms with many: of the Ministry, | will uot scruple on my re. turn home to communicate to them what I conceive to be the feeling of the people of Canada on the subject. [Cheers ] Indeed T should not discharge my duty did T not do so [cheers], but 1} will do nothing more, as I am engaged on no political mission whatever. Gen. temen, I must say your Canadian prosperity, which, | knew so much about before, has struck me afresh on my return among you. And | look on the rapid development of your institu- tious and towns with as much breath- less astonishment as ever. [Cheers.] It seems to me that the condition of your social position is progress ; and that you are always guing on from great to more great Three years ago you were great. You are far greater now ; and will be still greater here- after. [Cheers] 1 have scen your towns grow up in the backwoods --1 have scen the most opposite elements that you have acquired really necessary in the order to conduce to that full develop. ment --and hereic | conceive the duty of every Englishman lies ~we must sce how we can assist you, and smooth any obstructions that may be in your path. [Cheers ] It to me that you want three things. You\want a more rapid means of communication between one énd of the y and the other--so that the whole province may be fully and equally developed. [Hear, hear.] In order to secure this, you have another want. The boue and sinew to create those means of transfer. And for that vou want an organized: system of em- igration. Lastly--and here English. men can help you--you want to be drawn closer to England's heart. You are in 'many respects close enough there already. [Cheers] But there is yet a something wanting. 1 can tell you that in the few years I have been away, Canada is becoming much more generally known in Europe-- in, formation in regard to Canada has be- come more widely diffused. But you still want some means of annihilating entirely the barrier distance naturally creates between this and the mother country. Weareall loyal to the same Queen--[cheers] --subject to the same laws. and governed by the same insti- tutions; and ouly want that by quick ness of communication and other su. cial advantages, yon should be what the French call rapprocke. '[Cheers.) First then in regard to quickness of communication, I have thought it my duty to become connected with seve- cal undertakings having that great ob ject in view. | am d, first, 'with that company which is to shorten the journeys across the sea. When in St. Johns, Newfoundland, the other day, it was my fortune to sign and contract on behalf of that ness. [flere is the warrant and the se- curity for svstems of education.

But the en- 2 terprises with which 1 am connected do 1} not stop here. 1 hope to see a railroad issi Even the object of that mis-| constructed between Halifax and Que- bec. [Cheers.] 'And I am also the bearer of full powers to_ arrange the terms on which this railroad can be car- ried out between Canada and the other provinces. [Loud cheers] It seems to me that this is a project which is very important to Canada, inasmuch as ac- cess to the seaboard through British ter- ritory can never be' a mater of indiffer- ence 10 Canada or the Mother Country. ft isan Imperial measure undoubtedly-- and as such | am authorized in believ- ing the Imperial Government look upon it. Andil we can bring about a good understanding betweei Canada, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, we shall have very litle difficulty in coming to a good understanding with the Mother Country. [Cheers] Statesmen on the other side are not ind flerent to the great advantages derivable from such a pro- ject. Were it accomplished, instead of traversing a ign State--which might possibly become a hostile one--they would have safe and casy access 10 their most important colony through British territory. [Cheers.] While in England | was one of a dep- utation on the subject 10 the Chancellor of the Exchequer and Colonial Minister. And they both expressed themselves as warmly in its favour as official reserve would allow of. But before giving any final answer they waited till some more definite action should be given to the Crown. Gentlemen, it is my business here to get that definite action. And if you accept the terms, you will in a short time sre a railroad through British terri- tory from here tothe Atlantic. {Cheers.] It is impossible not to see that Canada must eventually become the great car- rving way of the world. [Cheers.}-- With vour poble river--so well canaled --your splendid chain of lakes--and vour rivers running from those lakes into Lake Winnipeg, and almost to the foot of the Rocky Mountains--you have a magnificent natural advantages--apd we cannot look on those natural features without seeing that over these plains of the Saskatchewan must lie your Pacific | Raifroad ; and through the gap near its head waters must pass that great rail- road 10 the West. [Cheers.] I feel, gentlemen, that it is no vision ary project 10 say that before long a ship canal, a railway and a telegraph will be constructed between the Atlansic and Pacific. , [Cheers.] I am, gentlemen, also interested in the construction of that Pacific railway. [Cheers.] Passing on to the other matter which I thought necessary to the full development of Canada, and that is, that of which I spoke but now. We have heard the theory advanced that the pro. vinces should be represented in the Im- perial Parliament. [Cheers] The other day | was reading a pamphlet by Mr. Hincks, in which he says that be- fore the American colonies separated from the mother country, the cry was that taxation without representation was tyranny. Now, perhaps | am bold in speaking out so plainly what I think, but 4 confess [ do not at the moment see the way in which the colonies can be repre- senied in that form in the British Parlia- ment. But there is another way ; and that is--it has been stated in England that in any reform bill bropslt forward, the question of life peerages would take a prominent place. [Applause ] The English House of Lords, enjoying, as it does, a large share of the eonfidence and reverence of the eountry, is a time-hon- oured institution, and would be, perhaps, the best place in which our colonial Sen- ators should be placed. [Cheers] Tt would be a very gond plan, it scems to me, if gentlemen from the colonies who had rendered themselves icu- ous among their fellow-subjects, either in politics or otherwise, should have con. ferred on them life peerages, by render. ing them members of the British Parlia- meat, though not in that branch of the legislature having cootrol of the taxes [Cheers.] Oneof the advantages of this <cheme would be that the people of Can. ada and the other colonies would have ided in London lemen whe, like embassadors from foreign states, would be able to fix and "certify to the position and standing of gentlemen visiting Eng- land from those colonies. [Cheers ]-- Were that the case, the colonist coming to England would be placei in a far su i position to that which has alwavs been the cause of so much complaint. and would have that entree' of English society to which his binh aod position entitled him. [Loud cheers.] | hope, While there, I shall always be found 10 do mv best for my friends ; but it is hardly any one man to pa the font tonite "his friends he mht desire and know to be needfal. It seems | 16 me, | ye only Shane thing of thi a sats pd 4! er GT eR cutar ih Ar -- yh SEE a P-- ye su a A Home in Heaven. Irrespective of the foundation on which | home such hope is bused, who is there"fthat : | does not hope for a home in hedven--in the land of the blest? But how vague and indefinite are our ideas of that home. Have we the idea of home afore |: our minds, as jit is uodersosd in regard to this word, when we think of the land of the hereafier? Are not our thoughts more of a general, than a specific dwell ing place? Of heaven as our home, more than of a home in heaven. But how unsatisfactory would it be 102 home- less wanderer on earth, to tell him that the worid was his home. [le would tel} | you at once, that was just what he com. plained of --that his home was too large, --he could not appropriate it,--and, therefore, it was of but little use to him. That he wanted some definite abiding. place, where he could gather around him the representatives of his own indi. viduality--where he could be himself. The love of home is a principle im- planted in our natures, and the associa- all tend 10 strengthen the principle. -- Shall it be distinguished, then, when we home, friends, and a circle of kindred spirits, for social and intellectual com paniorship, find no part in the aspirations of that higher life? Sav, rather, that these desires shall be so purified, so sub. jected to the law of love, that they shall there find ample scope for their fullest fruition. Yes, O, Earth-\Wanderer, vou <hall have a home in heaven,--a definite abiding-place,--* a house not made with hoards," where you can, veven now, if' veu will, be laying up your treasures -- And when you go to occupy that man. -ion, you can have the privilege of ar- ranging those treasures--of adorning a taste sanetified and refined. es, vou, vourself, will have this woik 10 do.-- There is no Ligher jov on earth than to feel that God has worked throtigh us, through our own individuallity, and | have no doubt that this same feel make it selfish, will forin an ingredient in the cup of heavenly Lliss. Bot there in our earthly homes, that we shall not think of doing in the heavenly. We shall not copy others. Our garments, our homes, and all that pertains to us theré, shall be an out-spealing of our own individual selves. When we prepare our homes here, there is always something to prevent the fullest expression of our fuelings; same. thing 10 detract from the pleasure of that which we really accomplish. In the firs: place the material with which we have to work, is 100 coarse to become the ern bodiment of the soul's highest ideal.-- and in the second, we know that ever much we may we canuot dwell therein forever. or later we must leave it all. But there will be nothing of the kind there. We shall then have to reach our rest,--not the rest of inaction, but of endless gression,--the outward form shall keep pace with the inward devel nt. Oh, with what a fullness of joy shall we lay hold of the material which God has prepared for us, that we may embody the glorious ideals that find birth in our souls. Not a thought, not a feeling, but shall live in its fullest and mos: appro- priate expression. There will be uo de- ception,--nothing to hide what we are, or show what we do not possess. All will be - plain, and open,-- glorious without and within. When we go forth on errands of mercy or i vestization through the hou idless kingdom of the Infinite, and retarn with fresh laurels on our brows,--with new flowers and evergreens that we have been permitfed to gather from the en of our God, that we mizht trasplant th m 10 our own,--we shall find no symptom of decay in those that we left for a season. No dust or cobwebs will have gathered around our treasures,--no gnawing worm or singing iasect will have found their way into our flowers of perennial bloom; no mildew will have blighted ~ur paradisiacal fruits. All, all will be brighter and fairer, even, than when we left. Oh, what a jov to return to such a home, and feel that it is ours forever '-- And vet how little do we think about those homes! Though we profess to be. lieve that there are such mansions pre- paring for us, how seldom do we turn our attention from the things of earth 10 contemplate them, and when we do. how vaguely indefinite, --how like airy noth. ings are our ideas concerning This ought not 10 be. [leaven is a re- ality,--our homes there will be a living, tangible reality. just as certain as God is a reality. Away, then, with refining. etherializing process, that makes the blessings 8 the future life an intangi. bilitv--that leaves the soul nothing to fix itself upon. Let us think of those" man- sions as real,--of those homes as our ive, but certain ions, --let us call to mind all that is beautiful or glorious, &!l that.is refining or elevating, of which we know, or can form an idea, in our conceptions of those heavenly dwellings, --those unfading possessions. There is no danger of our aver. doing the picture, for « It ath not entered into the heart of man," the glories of that place-- neither, indeed, can it, till he can have the privilege of sreinz without the inter- y | vening medium of his grosser orgauiza- hoo. .

"Do see that at fellow, vagabond as heis? "le and | used to goto school together when we were boys," said a gertleman, "and he was a good scholar when he did go. But 'when a good day came, it was always 'ton pleasant to study ;" he did not want to be cooped up in school such weather, he said, so he would dodse school, > 'down 10 the wharves for lounge in the fields, nobody knows where. At last | thought it would be mighty fine 10 do as he did ; so | told my mother when she bade m= split my wood and be ofl 10 school, that it * was too pleasant 10 work," | was sure it was. Nor was this the first time | had thrown out such an nion. "Too pleasant to work" she cried; "that is precisely what pleasant weather is made for. How fast the grass will grow today.

Waen he was a journeyman, and be. gan 1» earn wages, he appeared anxious 10 do better, and make up for lost time ; and kis friends thought he would be some- thing afer all. 1 met him one day dressed in his Sun- . ho ; Charley, do you suppose [am going 10 peg shoes today? Notl; we: pleasant for that," and he was off. And now what is he? A finished, hopeless, friendless, loafer, eating bread Le never earned. wearing clothes he never paid for, sleeping no ove knows where, a burden ta nobody greater than himself. | never see a boy tring to shirk his duties because ¢'tis 100 pleas ant to work," but | think he is taking his first step in 'the crooked path of good-for nothingness, by whose side there are so many open bars, the worst of which is the bar-room ; much of it is down hill, and at last it enters into the road 10 eternal ruin." \ Courage.

The school is a mile away over the hill, vet he lingers not by the fire, bunt with his books slung over his should~¢, and his cap tied closely und: r his chin, he sets forth 10 fave the storm.
