Against Parnell.

DAVITT VERY CONFIDENT THAT HIS OLD LEADER WILL BE BOWLED OUT.

The reports as to the real state of affairs at Kilkenny are conflicting, which probably arise from the fact that it is yet too soon to obtain trustworthy data on which to base an intelhgent opinion. While both sides claim that the fight is already decided in

battle, although the shouters for Paruell make the most noise. Unfortunately for him, they are mainly rowdies and non-voters who could do yeoman services in breaking up an anti-Parnell meeting, but whose influence at the polls is not an appreciable quantity. Davitt is very con- fident of success.

But Kilkenny city is not included in the electoral division in which the contest is waging. The appearance of another Richard in the field, in the person of J. K. Stephen as the Unionist candidate, will, it is though., impair Parnell’s chances, but for this he would probably have received the Tory vote. The first number of the new anti-Paruellite daily is issued here to-day.

In the hot contest now being waged by the Irish hierarchy against Parneil it is strange that neither he nor his friends have thus far made an eflicient use of lite des spatches frem Rome announcing the fact of the disapproval of the Pope of the political campaign in which his representatives are now engaged.

This arraying of the entire spiritual force of the island against the Nationalist leader has given rise to many comical incidents. For many years the pictures of Parnell and other Irish leaders have hung in the cabins of the peasantry as household deities and in memory of their services in the past. As soon, however, as the manifesto of the bishops appeared the priests issued orders that all likenesses of Parne!l must be de- troyed, and in some instances insisted on witnessing their removal from the walls. In one house it was found that Gladstone shared the place of honor with Pernell, and the woman not understanding the demand not only pulled down the picture of Glad- stone but broke the frame in pieces ob- serving as she did so that she ‘‘had always suspected that old gintleman.” As the priest was unable to make her understand theerror, he was compelled to retire, leaving Parnell’s picture in possession of the field.

a Literary Notes.

The Dominion Illustrated Christmas number is worthy of the highest preise. It comes to hand overflowing with good things including a charmingly written story by the bard of Hernewood, J. Hunter Duvar. The Inception of Evangeline, isa most interesting article, while an essay on the North West Mound Buildars covtains many instructive and in- teresting facts, Everything in the number, from cover tocover, is good. The illustrations areona par with the letter press and far above the average, The Dominion Illustrated, Montreal.

‘Raise the Flag,” and other patriotic Canadian songs, is a neatly printed little book containing a number of Canadian ballads. It eupplies a want thet has been long felt by patriotic Canadians. Hereafter Young Can- ada, when he desires to laud the land of his birth, wfll be at no loss for appropriate songs. Published by the Rose Publishing Co., Toronto.

— > Canada and Australia.

[t is reported that Sir Charles Tupper has laid proposals before the Australian agents general in London, and also depart- mental reports and statistics, showing that the direct line between Austrila and Canada would be greatiy te the advantage of the former country, The Australians appear to have been favourably impressed with the

and as we have marked them all Reisins, Currants, Spices, Canned Straw- scheme and will forward their reports at

once to their respective governments. Sir Charles particularly urged on the agen‘s the necessity of arriving at a decision as promptly as possible. The proposition in brief is that the various Australian colonies, including New Zealand, should cooperate with the Dominion (iovernment by giving mail subsidies to the proposed line. In the meantime Sir Charles has been successful in interesting several shipping firms in the subject, and the Harrington-Brassey syndicate, which is now contracting for the new fast Atlantic service, has promised as soon as a favorable reply is received from Australia to endeavour to raise money to establish the line. This syndicate proposes to build first class, high speed eteainships for the service, fully equal to those being built for the Atlantic line. The promoters of the company confidently be'ieve that in time it would be possible to compete with the Suez Canal for much of the trade between Great Britain and Australie.

The poet Wordsworth, whose genius did so much for English poetry and thought, is to bave a suitable memorial, which al] tourists who visit the lake country may enjoy. Dove Cottage at Grasmere, where he lived for eight years, from 1799 to 1808, and whence much ot his best work was done, has been bought by a committee and will be lifted up as a sort of Wordsworth museum, where the relics and manuscripts of the poet may be deposited. Perhaps no other spot is better suited then thia for the establishment of such a memorial, for the poet is buried in the churchyard near by and the whole neighborhood has been made famous by his writings.

The Marquis of Lorne bas not only insisted om going into politics, hugely to the disgust ef the Prince of Wales and other members of the royal family, bat be is doing it in » way that adds to the bitterness of the blow to his elevated kinsfolk. He has developed a ‘genuine anti-Irish mania, and whatever in- fluence he may possess will certainly go to | bring the reigning house into dislike with Her | Mokena Irish subjects. In a speech at | Glasgow recently, he asserted that there was | section of the Irish who would gladly el-ct “O'Donovan Rossa to Parliament from Tip- perary. The Liberals are severely denouncing the Marquis for his gratuitous appearance as a political agitater, in contravention of — custom with men in his position.

Business Education.

(Montreal Star. )

Nothing in human experience his been more dificult than to educate cur edneators as to the sort of education required to equip a man for modern life. Our sehovis and colleges are conducted as if they were intended to train the youth of the country for literary pur- suits or the learned professions, whereas only a few, comparatively speaking, have the ability or the time to devote in that way. How often do we see young men whe, after passing through the usual college course, find it necersary to attend a business ecllege in order to obtain a knowledge of those practical branches which were either suberdinated or neglected altogether at school. We train our children as though we intended to make them all poets and philosuphers. We cram them with formulas which it takes most of their after life to unlearn and forget. This is net the sort of education Prof. James insists that ie needed in there days. The kind of training demanded in these intensely practical times is that which will fit our yeuth for business careers. Of ccurse everybody will admit the need of softening and elevating influences in the training of the intellect. But what we ought to have at the same time is a weli-defined training for the assumption of the duties and responsibilities of maturity. Most men have to take up their burdens early in liie and cannot spare some out of the beat years ef their lives for polishing intellectual ornaments. Prof. James would, therefore, reconstruct the college curriculum with a view to the practical necessities of a business age. The odd system, which has come down practically unchanged from the Middle Ages, he would modify in consonance with advancing civilization. He would have instiuction given in banking, merchandizing, insurance, politics, journalism and similar studies, not forgetting those liberal studies which teach the value of the good things in life secured by wise conduct and earnest devotion toa settled worthy purpose. Every- where we see the control of affairs passing into the hands of business men. They dictate the politics of governments and regulate the relationship of nations, as we may see in the paramount importance assigned to the con- struction of tariffs and fiscal legislation. On this continent the business men form and control society and trom them comes the aristocracy of wealth. Wealth itself is the result of well-directed business methods, and can only be retained by judicious management. Our business men are thus seen to be the ruling class and it follows that education should be adopted to their requirements. The University of Pennsylvania is the only first-class educational institution which has so far adopted the method here indicated. The other universities must follow suit or lose prestige and patronage.

Taste in Christmas Presents.

Good taste discriminates between the needs of country and town, and does not send an opera glass or party-bag to the farmhouse; neither does it give the boy a book which he ought to like, but tries to select one to com- plete his favorite series. Children’s stockings are sometimes filled from the standpoint of maturity. Utility and not suitability gov- erns the choice of their contents. The e has been many «4 disappointed, sorrowful heart on Christmas morning because the powers that be, forgetting their own childhood, had cater- ed to the tastes of forty instead of to those of four, writes Helen Jay to the Ladies’ Home Journal.

So youth sometimes confounds age. The young gir! who ‘‘adores olives” perplexes her = old auntie by the presentation of a queer

ittle dish for which her domestic economy finds no use. It is wise not to consult our own preferences, but to disvover and gratify the individual fancies and fads of others.

On the principle of like attracting like, the most valuable gift too often finds its way to the one who needs it least. In some cases good judgment dictates ae giving of money as the kindest thing to be done. How often some poverty-s'raightened one has sighed over the expensive gift, ‘‘If I only hed the money this cost.” No field affords a wider opportunity for the exercise of common sense than Christmas giving. Women, by exercis- ing judgment, not only benefit themeecfves, but are a positive blessing in their example to the entive sex, and the Yule-tide of 1890 will be a happy one indeed if common sense is more employed in Christmas gifts.

VatuasLte Corr Losr.—The Pioneer says: Mr. Thomas Andrews, of St. Eleanors, lost his very valuable four-year- old All Right colt— Sir Arthur—last Wed- nesday. The horse had been to Summer- side during the forenoon. When Mr. Andrews got home he took the colt to water, and on reaching the stable dvor the animal suddenly dropped and in five min- utes life was extinct. Mr. Andrews thinks he choked with bots rising in his gullet. This colt trotted a quarter on the track here last fall in 47 seconds and was con- sidered worth $150.

A Youne Gret’s Suriciwe.—The twelve- year-old daughter of A, J. Hatfield, of Mid- dleton, N. 8., committed suicide by jumping into the Annapolis river on Thursday last. It is said that the girl was corrected for some fault by her mother, who threatened to tell her father of what had occarred. The girl left her home about noon, walked down the river, took off her shoes, and her tracks could be seen to the edge of the ice. Acolored man saw her shortly after, some little distance below the bridge, floating down the centre of the stream and splashing the water with her hands. He ran to give the alarm, but on re- turn no trace of her was found, At latest accounts grappling parties were searching for

the body.
