For eighty years at least writers have en
deavored to bring home to Englishmen the
vastneM of India, but, so far as can be per
ceived, have failed. Tho Briton reads what
they say, learns up their figures, tries to
understand their descriptions, but fails, for
all his labor, to realize what India is a con
tinent large as Europe west of the Vistula,
and with 0,000,000 more people, fuller of an
cient nations, of great cities, of varieties of
civilization, of armies, nobilities, priesthoods,
organizations for every conceivable purpose
from the spreading of great religions down
to Hvstematie murder. There are twice as
many Bungalese as there are Frenchmen; the
Ilindostanees, properly so callea, outuunioer
the whites in the United States; tho Mah
rattas would fill Spain, the iieople of the
Punlab with Seindo are douhlu tho popula
tion of Turkey, and I have named but four
of the more salient divisions.
Everything is on the same bewildering
scale. The fighting peoples of India, whoso
males are as big as ourselves, as brave as
ourselves, and more regardless Of death than
ourselves, number at least 1:20,000,000, equal
to Gibbon's calculation of the population or
tho Roman empire. There are 400,000
trained brown soldiers in native service, or
whom we hear perhaps onco in ten years, and
at least 2,000,000 men who think their proper
profession is arms, who would hvo by arms
if they could, and or whom we in r.ngianu
never 'bpar a word. If tho Prussian con
scription wero applied in India, wo kuoum,
without counting reserves or landwehr or
any force not summoned in time of peace,
have 2,500,000 soldiers actually in barracks,
with 800,000 recruits coming up every year
a force with which not only Asia, but tho
world, might be 6ubduetL There are tens of
millions of prosperous peasants whose hoard
ings make of India the grand absorbent oi
the precious metals, ton3 of millions of peas
ants beside- whose poverty fellahs or Sicilians
or CJonnaught men are rich; millions of arti
sans, ranging from tho mon who build pal
aces to the mon who, nearly nak,3u and al
most without tofdi, do. tho'bumblest work of
the. potter-
livery occupation which exists iu Em-ope
exists also in India. The industry of the
vast continent never ceases, for India, with
all her teoming multitudes, with a popula
tion in places packed beyond European
precedent, imports nothing cither to eat
or drink, and, but for the Europeans, vould;
l.mjrt nothinsr wbatever. hue is sumcienc

The AVIt of an "Immortal."
M. Ijibiehe, who died in Paris not long
ago, was a ineinlier of tho French academy
one of tho forty literary "immortals'1 of
France. M. J.abi-ho originated the saying,
now not unfamiliar in characterizing a per
son who, though ignorant, insists uin mak
ing a great show i.f what he thinks he knows,
"lie is a man of vast and varied misinforma
tion." Labiche expressed t he thought iu this
way: "lie has a great and varied ignor
ance." XoL long after Lnbieho had used this'
expression, and had embodied it in a literary
work, Prince llisniarck said of some one:
"That man tmssesses a iierfectcilcydoiKi-diuo
i'.rnorance." Labiche insisted thut Bismarck
had liorrowed tho phrase from him. But it
is more probable that tho rejietition was a
mere coincidence, as Bismarck himself is a
man of genuine wit. At the marriage of his
son, Labicho gave a little party, and, as ho
was unite unaccustomed to ceremonies of a
social sort, he was at first puzzled to know
what ho should say in greeting and parting
with so many people. "I have it! I have it:'
ho exclaimed finally; "I will simply say to
each person as bo arrived, 'At last! and to
each as ho g(ies uway, 'Alreadyf" lie car
ried out his programme, and all his guests
felt very much flattered. Pitt-' ;::;-; 'i:i!

Once when I was in Ijtuidon a woman op-t
plied to a hospital for 1Vm1 for her liabe,
.vhich was dying of btarvatiuu, Tho com-
1 nittee of gentlemen called her in and asked
her a string of questions, and finally said they
could not give her anything unless sho had a
written application from tho secretary. She
tbauked them, gathered her dying child in
her arms and started off to look for the sec
retary, lie called her in, asked her ques
tions and said he could not make out ihe. ap
plication without an ordei-. from tho doctor.
Sho t!iac.koi him and went back to tho hos
pital to tho doctor. lie gave her tho order,
and with hope in her heart aud hugging tho
preciou3 burthen to her breast, bidding the
little ona wtiit; just an hour more, the poor
mother, hurried away to the secretary, anil
from him to the hospital again. But when
food was brought and sho drew tho ragged
pud of her shawl away from tho baby's face,
the littlo one lay daad in hor arms. It was
dead of starvation a:'.d red tape. Catharine

Tlie Idiotic Topical Song.
The impression that all "topical song's,"
which fo'-m a prominent feature of tho comic
ojieras, so . illed, are written in asylums for
idiots is not ouite correct, though the qual
ity of most of the songs certainly gives color
to it. The nursery rhyme is bad enough,
perhaps, but in comparison with the average
tnnieal sons it is a gem of purest ray serene.
Every time I attend a comic opera I want to
o out when tho topical song begins. In the
lirst plaeo the alleged singer has no more
voice for melody than an old crow, and in
the second place the words he pretends to
sin" are either idiotic, or, in a literary sense,
mere rubbish. It is a rule to make new
verses for every new thing that comes up.

No ono who reads our English literature of
a hundred vears 'ago or more can fail to see
that the writers of that age cared nothing
for the crraudeur of mountain scenery. They
sneak of mountains as horrid, gloomy, for
bidding. If any scenery appealed to them it
was the most artilieial terrace and tamest
lawn. There was little sympathetic study of
nature then under any form. Angling for
trout and tho fox hunt were the only pursuits
that could suggeat tho eager search for rocks
n,l nlmts and buzs. that is now carried on
n tho fields and woods. This newly awak
ened taste for out-of-door study, and this
curious observation of nature is rellecteil in
tho literature of tho time, and is often com
mented u'iou by writers. Youth's Compan
