Amid the innumerable columns Unit have
been printed in eulogy of this queen at tho
hppvon ynit together, diing anniversary would be literally columns miles which, long
d seems to mo thatt.be chief eause of con¬
gratulation yet boon t.o properly her and emphasized, of praise of God and has in
yot tho chief key note has been
fnany cases not
struck at all. We have boon told over and
over again what has occurred in the Victo¬
rian era. Tho mightiest tiling she has done
has been almost ignored, while she lias
been honored by having her name attached
to individuals and events for whom and for
Which she had no responsibility? We liavt
put before iis the names of potent and
grandly lived Useful men and worn tin who have
during her reign, but l do not suppose
that She at all helped Thomas Carlyle in
toVisting bis involved and mighty satires,
'Or helped GiSraeli in issuance of his epi¬
grammatic wit. or helped Cardinal New¬
man in his crossing over from religion
to religion, or helped to inspire the en¬
chanted sentiments of George J'P'ot and
Harriet Martinonu and Mrs. Ih-owning,
or helped to invent any of George (Tulk-
bhank’s healthful cartoons, or helped
George Grey in founding a Ih-itish South
African empire, or kindled the patriotic
fervor with which John Bright stirred t he
masses, or had anything to do with the
invention of the telephone or photograph,
or t(Tiology tho building up of tho science of bao
; or the directing of tlio Jloontgen
helped keys Which havo revolutionized surgery, or
in the inventions fur facilitating
printing and railroading and ocean voyag¬
ing; One is not to be credited or discredited
for the virtue or the vice, the briJiiarice or
tho stupidity of his or her contemporaries.
While Queen Victoria lias been the friend
of all art, all literature, all science, all in¬
vention, all reform, her reign will ho most
remembered for Jill time and all eternity as
the reign of Christianity.
Beginning with that scene at 5 o’clock in
tho morning in Kensington palace, where
she asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to
pray for her, and they krmlt down, implor¬
ing divine guidance until this hour, not
lished only In church, the sublime liturgy of her estab¬
but on ail occasions, she Inis
directly God or indirectly declared, “I believe in
the Father Almighty, maker of heaven
ft ml earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only be¬
gotten Son/’ X declare it, fearless of con¬
Christianity tradiction, that the mightiest champion of
to-day is the throne or lung-
land. The queen’s book, so much criticised
at the time of its appearance, some saying
H was not skillfully done and some saying
that the private affairs of a household
ought not so to have been exposed, was
nevertheless a book of vast useful nnss
from the ladl that it showed that
God was acknowledged in all her
life and that “Bock of Ages”
was not an unusual song in Windsor Castle.
Was her son, tho Brineo of Wales, down
With nn Illness that baffled tile greatest
doctors of England? Then sho proclaimed
a day of prayer to Almighty God, and in
answer to tho prayers of the whole civilized
world the Prince got well. Was Sevastopol
to be taken and the thousands of bereaved
homes of soldiers to be comforted, she
called her nation to its knees, and tho
prayer was answered. Nee her walking
through the hospitals like an angel of
mercy. Was there ever an explosion of
lire damp in the mines of Hhoffleld or
Wales anil her telegram was not the llrst to
arrive with help and Christian sympathy?
Is President Garfield ‘lying at Long Branch
and Is not the cable under the sea reaching
to Balmoral Castle kept busy in announcing
tho symptoms of the sufferer?
I believe that rio throne since the throne
of David and the throne or llezekiali and
the throne of Esther lias been In sueh con¬
stant touch with tho throne of heaven as
the throne of Victoria. From what l know
of her habits siio reads the Illblc moro titan
she does Shakespeare. Him admires the
hymns of Horatio llonar moro than she
does Kyron’s “Corsair.” She has not know-
ingly admitted into her presence 11 corrupt
man ox dissolute woman. To very dlstln-
finished novelists and very celebrated
prim a donnas she has declined reception
because they were Immoral. All the com-
Ing centuries of time eannot revoke tlio
advantages of having had sixty years of
Christian womanhood enthroned In the
palaces of England. Compare her eourt
surroundlDgs with what were the eourt
surroundings In the time of lli-.nry VIII.,
or what were tie, court surroundings
In the time of Napoleon, in the tlmeof Louis
XVI., in the times of men and women whoso
names may not be mentioned In decent so-
elety. Alas! for the revelries, and the worse
than Belshazzar leasts, and the mere than
llerodbin donees, and the scenes from
Which tlm veil must not be lifted. Vou
heed, however, In order to appreciate tlio
purity and virtuous splendor of Victoria’s
reign to contrast It somewhat with the
gehen/ias and the pandemoniums of many
of the throne rooms of the past and some
of the thronerooms of tho present. I call
the roll of the queens of the «arth, not that
I would have them come up or come hack,
hut that I may make them the background
of n picture In which I can (sitter present
the present septuagenarian, so soon to he
an octogenarian, example now on thoroughly the throne of Eng-
bind, her SO on the
right side that all the scandal mongers in
nil the nations in six decades have not
been able to manufacture an evil suspicion
In regard to her that could be made to
stick; Maria of Portugal, Isabella and
Eleanor and Joanna of Spain, Catherine of
itussia, Mary of Scotland, Marla Theresa of
Germany, Marie Antoinette of France and
all the queens of England, as Miss Ktrlck-
land has put them before us in her charrn-
lug twelve volumes, and while some queen
may surpass our modern queen In learning,
and another In attractiveness of feature,
and anoth.-r in gracefulness ol form, and
another In romance of history, Victoria
surpasses them all In nobility and grandeur
and thoroughness of Christian character. X
hall her, the Christian duughtor, the Chris-
tian Wife, the Christian mother, the Chris-
tlan Queen, and let tho church of God and
all benign and gracious Institutions the
world over cry out, as they come million with
music and bannered host, and
voiced huzza, and the benediction* of
jarth ami hoaven, “Wlmt wilt tmfli.Cjaoou

by a mechanic an ex-
peri mental ascent in a so-called steering
airship from the Tempelhol Common, Ber¬
lin, Germany. When the balloon, which
had been tilled at had the military ballooning
tabllshment, reached a heard, height and ol
8000 feet, a loud explosion was
the next moment the balloon was seen to
he ablaze. Thu ear, which was also on lire,
detached itself from the burning silk and
fell with fearful rapidity to the found ground. bo
Both of its occupants were to
dead. Tlmlr bodies were horribly burned.
n appears that the benzine used in tho
steering gear motor exploded, oausing tho
disaster.

A mi* years since there was not a
canning factory west of the Alleghany
Mountains, but now they dot the
prairies and and plantations increasing of the Missis¬
sippi liasin, are year by
year at u rapid rate. There lias been
a steady increase in the demand for
canned goods. Their consumption
was enormously increased by' tSteir low-
cost—so low, indeed, at present that
there is no profit in the industry,
which shares the depression common
to business in general in recent years.
Ju prosperous times tho trade is a
vast and profitable one, and is only in
the first steps of its development.
