YOUNG GENTUS,

Genius, when young, is divine. Why, che greatest captains of ancient and modern times both conquered Italy at twenty-five ! Youth, extreme youth, overthrew the ‘Persian empire. Don John of Austria won Lepanto at twenty-five—the greatest battle ‘of modera times; had it not been for the | jealousy of Philip, the next year he would have been Empercrof Mauritania. Gaston de Foix was ouly twenty-two when he stood a victor on the plain of Ravenna. . Every one remembers Conde and Rocroy at the same age. Gustavus Adolphus died at thirty-eight. Look at his captains—that wonderful Duke of Weimar, only thicty- six when he died. Bauer himself, after all his niiracles, died at forty five. COvortes was little more than thirty when he gazed upon the golden cupolas of Mexico. When Maurice of Saxony died at thirty-two all Europe acknowledged the loss of the great- est captain and the profoundest statesman of the age. Then there is Nelson, Clive;

but these are warriors, and perhaps you may think there are greater things than war. I dv not. I worship

the Lord of Hosts. But take the must Innocent LIL., ‘the greatest of the Popes, was the despot of Christendom at thirty- seven. John de Medici was a Cardinal at fifteen, and, Guicciardini tells us, baffled with his craft Ferdinand of Aragon himself, He was Pope as Leo X. at thirty-seven. Luther robbed even him of his richest pro- vince at thirty-five. Take Ignatius Loyola and John Wesley—they worked with young brains. Ignatius wa#orly thirty when he! made his pilgrimage and wrote the ‘Spiritual Exercises.” Pascal wrote a great work at sixteen (the greatest of Frenchwen), and died at thirty-seven.

Ah, that fatal thirty-seven! which reminds me of Byron—yreater even asa man than awriter. Was it experience that guided

ithe pencil of Raphael when he painted the palaces of Rome ¢

He died at thirty-seven. Richelieu was Secretary of State at thirty- one. Well, then, there are Boling- broke and Pitt, both ministers before other men jleave off cricket. Gro- tius was in practice at seventeen, ‘and attorney-general at twenty-four. And ' Acquavioa—Acquavioa was General of the Jesuits, ruled every cabinet in Europe, and colonised Americas, before he was thirty- seven. What a career! the secret sway of Europe! ‘That was indeed a position! But it is needless to multiply instances. history of heroes is the history of youth,— Disraeli’s Coningsby.

WEARING OAK ON THE 29TH OF May.

The origin of wearing this badge is com- monly believed to be to commemorate the preservation of Charles I], in the oak, on

May 20h. Now, Charles fought the bat-

tle of Worcester on Wednesday, the 3rd of September, 1651; he fled from the field, at- jtended by Lords Derby and Wilmot, and others, and arrived early next morning at Whiteladies, about three-quarters of a mile ‘from Boxobel House. * At this place Charles secreted himself ina wood, and in |a tree, (from the King’s own account a 'hollowed ouk), since termed * the royal oak;” and at night Boxobel House was his place of refuge. At Whiteladses he ex- changed his habilaments for those of the fsithtel Penderell. Subsequenily he er-- barked at Shoreham on the i.5th of October, and landed next day at Fexamp in Nor- mandy. On his return to England, Charles entered London on his birthday, the 29th of May, when the Royalists displayed the branch of oxk, from that tree having been instrumental in the King’s restoration; hence the custom of wear’ng oak on this day, and not from Charles being then con- cealed in the oak. It may te added that the oak could scarcely have een in sufii- cient leaf in May to have concealed the King.

CROMWELL’S ** FORTUNATE DAY.”

The 3rd of September was always regard- ed by Cromwell as his ‘*fortumate day.” On the two successive anniversaries of that day he gained his famous victories 1f Dun- bar and Worcester ; yet subsequently, on that very day, agreeably with a strange prophesy of Colonel Lindsey, the Protector breathed his last. The Monday before, August 30th, was the most wiudy day that had happened for twenty years ; and the following Friday, on which Oliver died, there was also a high wind, which produc- ed these very opposite lines: Waller says Oliver died

** In storms as loud as liis immortal fame,” and Godolphin,

‘* Tn sturms as loud as was his crying sin.”

Wheat in the States. The London Times says editorially:— * Judging from our special reports from

The | the wheat producing States published this

morning, the United States wiil not be in & position to furnish very much of the 70,-

(00,009 or 80,000,000 bushels of wheat which will be required to meet ihe defi- ciency caused by the poor crops in the Old

that from the accession of Louis X1V. to here as Ti Warope to largesharvests of the ithe present time not a single king ur gov-. principal food cereals, bu‘, so far as can be ernor of France,~—though none of them, ‘learned, we shall have ample wheat for with the exception of Louis X VILL, have} home consumption with probably some, if | been childless,— has been succeeded at his’ not a great deal, to spare, to supply a por- demise by his son.

In Ohio the crop is reported to be Louis XV. survived his sen, and was suc- not over sixty per cent, of the average and

‘eveded by his grandson. Louis XVI. left la son behind hun ; but that son perished in the tithy dungeon tu which the cruelties of the terrorists had confined him. The King lof Rome, te whom Napoleon fondly hoped Ito bequeath the boundless empire be had iwon, died a colone: in the Austrian service. | Louis X VIL. was, as we have said, child- less. ‘Cue Duke de Berri fell by the hand lof an assassin in the lifetime of Charles X.; jand his sun, the Duke de Bordeaux, is in exile from the lind which his ancestors ‘regarded as their own estate. The eldest son of Louis Philippe perished by an un- timely accident; and his grandson and heir, the Comte de Paris, does not sit upon the throne of his grandfather. hus, then, it appears that for upwards of two hundred years in no one of the dynasties to which France has been subjected has the son succeeded to the throne of the father.— The Loudoun Times, 1856.

NO NEW ENGLISH SOVEREIGN IN MAY.

It is remarkable that among the thirty- three sovereigns who have sat on the Eng- lish throne since William the Conqueror, although each of the eleven months has witnessed the accession of one or mere, the month of May has not been so fortunate, none haying ascended the throne within its limits.

THE RED AND WHITE ROSES.

The precise perivud at which the Red and White Ruses, now adopted as hos- tile emblems in the divided house of Plant- agenet has never been satisfactorily ascer- tained, but a contemperaneous MSS. in the Bodeleian Library at Oxford proves that the White Rose was au hereditary cognizance of the hvuse of York, and borne as such by the Duke when he inherited the title. Camden states that the Lincans- trians derived the badge of the Red Rose from their ancestor, Edmund, first Earl of Lancaster, ‘** On whose person,” says San- ford, ‘‘ was originally founded the great contention betwixt the two royal houses of Lancaster and York.” Again, Cam- den, in his Remains, asserts that ‘* Edmund Crouch-backe, second son of Henry the Third, used a red rose, wherewith his tomb at Westminster is adorned.” A'so that ** Iehn of Gaunt, fi th Duke of Lancaster, to: k a red rose to his device, as it were, by rivbt of his tirst wife, the heiress of Lan- caster, grandchild to the above-named Edmund Crouch-backe ;” and that ‘ Ed- mond of Langley, Duke of York, his younger brother, adopted as his emb'em the white rese.”— Note to Hulsted’s Rich- ard EL.

Among the Harleian MSS. is an origina! document containing the names of the slain in the desperate battles between the Houses

of inferior quality. Iu Lbinois the quality is not high, though the quantity harvested is satisfactory, and in Kansas a loss of fully one-third has been sustained by the negligence of the farmers in protecting what promised tu be a fine wheat crop. With the suffering expected in Engiand and the rise in price of bread, already made there on account of the failure of the wheat crop, and in anticipation of the certain scarcity of that cereal ia the immediate future, the United States is to be congra- tulated upon the amount of wheat already harvested in this country. If we cannot feed the world it is pleasant to know that we can feed ourselves.” nh ot

Hard work, whether as sovereign, author or soldier, evidently does not shorten men’s days, if other circumstances, inclucling first of alla good coustitation, be favorable. Ger- raany has furnished the spectacle of three men, occupying respectively the three posi- tions just mentioned, two of “hom where ;honogenarians, Ranke, the historian, and Emperor William; while the third, Marshal ‘Von Moltke, is still in harness at the age of 88. The Marshal had held the position of chief of the general staff, to his resignation, of : which reference ‘as been made in our des- | patches, for thirty years. On assuming it he | was in the prime of his life as a soldier, but not yet in the prime of his farhe as a general. The two great campaigns which gave him re- putation were still in the future. No warrior of renown has cherished more exalted ideas of ‘the military office and career, or of the import- ance of war among the factors of human pro gress than those to which Von Molike has given expression. It is, perhaps, to that fact no less than to his services to the empire that we must attribute the extraordinary warmth and pathos of the Emperor's letter to him.

Satnppsiadaatallincnctearatinn

The Republicans have scored a success in the first skirmish preliminary to the zen- eral contest of November 6th. The Ver- mont election on Tuesday resulted in the opponents of Mr. Cleveland carrying the State by 27,000 majority. Vermont is always Republican, but this year that party has gone ahead of its record in 1884, the last presidental year, vy 5,000 vores. Some of this is known to be due to Demoratic dissatisfaction with the campaign manage- ment, but this elem-at in the situation hardly accounts for the whole result.

In speaking before a Belgian audience scrae time ago, Cardinal Lavigerie reminded his hearers that Godefroy de Bouillon, whose statute be had lately had an oppor- tunity of saluting, had led 89,000 men to Pp slestine to rescue the holy . places from the infidels. Such a past imposed obliga- tiuas. He appealed to Belgium to furnish not 80,00) bu: 100 vuolu:t ers t» rescue from the hands of cruel slave dealers the unhappy men, women and children, who were the victims of their ruthless inhuman- ities.
