We invite the careful conâ€"- sideration of our readers to figures yhich {prove the expanding nature of our re- sources and the elasticity of our present *revenue. Of course expenditure inâ€" ‘increnses with revenue ; but all men of practical sense know that in this country increase of expenditure is inevitable when the nature of our public works is considered . The only difficulty in the Way of increase of expenditure is de crease of revenue , and that difiiculty does not exist. The country needs ex-‘ penditure, and calls for it , and as the revenue admits of it not only without danger to the public credit” but conâ€" sistently with ‘a considerable surplus, the public will hardly disapprove of es- timates that are generous in the right direction.

Mr Maturin, of Philadelphia, was here on Monday, and gave three Lectures, one in the Orange Hall, to men only, and two in the English Church. All three were well attended, and listened to attentively. The Orar‘gemen were anxious to have the remains brought back and properly buried, but the expense incurred there was so great they could not possibly do it with ut costing the lodge more than it could bear, as they have not got their new ball paid for yet. The expense to the Lodge would be about $120. The disappearance ofthe Merchant 1 spoke-0f last week was Wm. A Gregory, and I am sorry to say his disappearance here was not so sudden as his death which occurred in Patterson. N. J., U. S. A., last Thursday, when he was inâ€" stantly killed by the cars. Gregory was a number ofthe Orange Society, and also a member of the Mason,s in this Village, and in good standing I believe in both lodges, at the time of his sudden end. Our M. 1).. N. 0.

We hope a satisfactory exp]ana-~ tion, regarding the grant, will be given the Messenger by the member, and that it. will not again be so greviously dis- appointed. * . A LARGE CROWD AND G001) SPORT. The Messenger ought to know that this is not a sufficient reason for giving large grants of public money. If the Colllngwood harbor Is as important as others mentioned, and as necessary for the public interest, it certainly should be impartially treated. Itmay be that the other harbors require a greater outlay to make them as good as Uollingwood. All other things being equal it cerâ€" tainly seems right that Collingwood should be given the preference, as it. was 1th out in the cold during the Mackenzie administration, and every rival town liberally provided for. The most” pleasing feature ofthe matter is to see the Messenger so outspoken. Many Reform sheets would be afraid to menâ€" tion the alfair, under similar circum- stances, much less censure the action of the Government, and call their represen- tative to account. But the Messenger stands up for the interests of the town. and shows that the Conservative press does not give a blind and unreasonable support to the leaders, no matter what they may do. It shows that there is an intelligent and independent spirit, alive. TROTTING ON WILCOX'S LAKE. The Collingwood Messenger comâ€" plains that both the Reform and Conservative Governments have si-ighted that town,â€"or rather the harbor. While Goderieh, Owen Sound, Kinâ€" cardine, Tobourg, Port Eigin. and Rondeau getliberal grants for harbor imprOVements. Collingwood‘ is given the magnificent sum of $1,500. Four ofthe ports which combined receive $40,000 did less business in 1880 than Collingwood. The I Messenger seems desirous of enforcing the elaiin of that town to a‘iargcr grant chiefly because it has stuck to the Conservative party, through thick and thin.

SUMMARY‘ HUMMER. and the 49¢}, and t The age in which we live has been ‘ called an age of skepticism . The 1answer has been given that it is not an age of skepticism, but an age of enquiry. , it is an age both of enquiry and skepti~ ‘cism. There are many honest seekers after the truth who are calling in quesâ€" tion our most cherished beliefs and opinions. who are examining and testing the foundations of our commonly accepted views. These men are by nature skeptical. They want evidence and are open to conviction. They are the doubting 'l‘homasea of the world. But lthere are many others who doubt for the ‘snke of doubting, who do not seek truth, who shut their eyes to all evidence, who will not. hear with their ears, or understand llwilh their hearts, lest they be converted. lAnd this state of things is giving much anxiety to some good men. But what is the cure for it. How can we stem the tide of unbelief which is rolling over the land 1 Educate the young in the grand principles of morality. This is the cure. Educate up a generation that can say. we know because we have felt. We know that. we have a conscience, for we have heard its Voice. We know tl‘at that there is within usaspirit,a soul which will not perish with the body ; for we have felt its aspiration for a life longer than the narrow span of this one. We linow that Christi- unity is a revelation from Heaven ; for it satisfies the longing»: ot' the heart, it answers to every need of our spiritual But what work are Sabbath Schools doing to-day? Why, Sir, the work has become so extensive, and has assumed such importance in the eyes of the Christian world, and has so taken hold of their sympathies, and' drawn to itself the best talent, the most noble hearts, and the most selfâ€"denying labor of the Church that it is to-day the grand ‘in-â€" stru'ment for the evangelization of the world. \Ve have Sabbath Schools in our villages and towns and cities ; we have Sabbath Schools scattered all over the country, wherever you find achurch; we have Sabbath School Conventions and Institutes for discussing the best methods of doing the work ; there are scores of printing presses pouring forth Sabbath SChool literaturef hundreds of the ablest minds of the day are cast-- Iing the light of their ripe scholarship on the Bible, and hundreds of thousands of faithful teachers are . prayerfully istudying the glorious truths «'i' the ‘gospcl that they may fulfil Christ’s command to Peter, and through him to the whole church, “Feed my lambs;” and these are all necessary, for the importance ot'giving our youth a more thorough moral and religious training is forcing itself on all thoughtful minds, It is'not enough to train the intellect. Knowledge is power, but it is a power for evil as well as for good, and it Is, certain to be a power for evil, if the i heart as well as the head has not been educated. A man whose moral nature has not been cultivated is only half educated. He may have a well~trained intellect, but, if the moral side of his nature has been neglected, he lacks ballast, he is wanting in controlling and regulating forces, he is without the l principles necessary for the right direct-- ing of the active forces of his nature. Such a man cannot stand in the day of templatation. In proof‘ ofthis 1 refer you to the long list of those who have made for themselves a name in Liters-- ture, in the Arts and Sciences, and you will at once think of many who have fallen from high places from a want of moral stamina, of many the whole influence of whose lives has been cast on the side of wrong doinp,r when they might have stood up nobly and grandly for the truth. These Truths have, in Christian countlies, permeated and leavened all the strata of society, and, like the pure sunlight have exerteda silent, but potent influence. ' . Let us 100k for a moment at the work which has been done by the Sabbath School. It is impossible to estimate the good that has been effected by Sabbath Schools since they were first organized ’ one hundred years ago. Eternity alone will show how many hearts have been made happy, how many hungry souls have been fed, how many burdens have been lightened, how many men and women have been saved from lives of vice and wretchedness by the truths taught in the Sabbath School. You have already been individually welcomed at. the respective houses which you are to make your homes while you remain in our midst; and I am certain you look on that welcome, the one you have already received, as for more substantial, as of greater importance, and more to be appreciated than any welcome I can give you _this evening. But it seemed good, and quite proper that a fozmal and official welcome should be extended to you in the name of the people of this village; and I have to thank the committee for the honor of being made, on the present occasion, the representative and spokesman of the inhabitants of Richmond Hill, and for affording me the pleasure of saying to you all, in the name of my fellow towns~ men and townswomen,' that you are welcome. heartily welcome among us, of saying that we welcome you to the hospitalities of our homes, that we are glad to see you, glad to meet you, and glad to consult with you as to the best means of carrying on the great work in which we are engaged. The duty devolvinn on me this even - ing is a ve1y light: and a very pleasant one. Itisalight- task from its very nature; for, I think it has almost become an axiom that an address of welcome ought to be short. It use light task also, because it is a pleasant one; for it affords me very great pleasure to extend to you the delegates and visitors of this Convention, in the name of the people of this village, a most hearty welcome. The Convention held last week was very largely attended. On Thursday evening the Church was filled to the doors, to hear Vice-Chancellor Blake’s lecture.
