Our opinion, frequu-ntly expressed, that the Reform Party (leOEltt‘d the Reform Party, has not yet changed, and it rejoices us to know that they did so in a manner that cannot be misunderstoml. Mr. \Vhitney, now with a majority ofover j forty, has little to fear in the matter iof blocked legislation, and from the growing spirit of independence that characterizes the times, his tenure of office will largely depend upon how he and the Conservatives administer the affairs of the province. Never a- gain, in all probability. will any one politi éal party in Ontario hold the reins of government for so long a period. The representation in the house is no index to the comparative strength of the two parties in Ontrrio, and the advent of another election will he sure to reduce the large major~ ity that Mr. \Vhitney now holds. “’0 are not at all disloyal to Conservatiw interests, but we believe there we many honest Tories, who would scorn to keep in office, a government of their own party, who failed to do the right. thing, just as the last election shoWed beyond the shadow .of doubt that many honest Liberals came out on the broadplatform of independence, and voted against the Ross government. It would he folly. yea, it would he gross impudence to imagine that either party hold a monopoly of th» ability. There are. good and had Tories as well as good and had Grits. and now that the 'Tories are on top, three need be no fear of any malad- ministration of affairs, provided the present spirit of independence keeis strung up to concert pitch. )ICLE.~\.\'â€"â€"HII.L--In Durham, on \Ved., Mar.15th, at the Baptist church, Mr. Robt.

OD The True Ideal. The true ideal that should fill a man’s heart and fire his energies is excellence in his own sphere. the living of his own particular life just as fully and. nohly as heâ€"not somebody elseâ€"can. True, this is an unknown quantity, but it is areal and attainable one. Day by day it is rising, and day by day a man may feel conscious of increased power. Whither it may lead him he cannot. tell, but that by its guidance he will go farther and accomplish more than by any other he may rest assured. Attemntinz nothing impossible. he is He arrived at this conclusion by ob- serving the work done by heavy dray horses in breweries working eight hours daily and found that a horse go- ing at the rate of two miles and a half an hour could raise a weight of 150 pounds by a rope led over a pulley, which is equal to 33,000 pounds raised one foot in one minute. Watt, for the credit or his engines. selected horses of more than average power. James Watt was the first to define the unit of horsepower, which by ex- periment he found to be 33,000 foot pounds a minute. In other words, a one horsepower engine would raise 38,000 pounds one foot every minute, and so on proportionally to the number of “horsepowers” indicated by the en- gine. The Unit as It Was Originated and Defined by “’11“. When steam engines were employed to drive mills, pumps and other ma- chinery which had been previously driven by horses, it was natural to at- tempt to express the work done by them in terms of the working power of the horse. The idea of making furniture of ma- hogany wood appears to have been the result of 111.111th certain physician in London had :1 meat many mahogany planks, and. \\ 111ting a candle box. he sent for a cabiiwtmaker and instructed him to use the. mahogany for the reâ€" quired article of furniture. The man objected that the wood was too hard for his tools, and the doctor told him to get harder tools. The man did so. and when the doctor saw the box he was amazed at its beauty. Patients and friends talked about it, and at last the Duchess of Buckingham came to see it. She was enraptured and per- suaded the doctor to give her wood for a similar box. As a result mahogany got to be the fashion. The Way It Came to Be [Inc-d In (II. Making 0! Furniture.
