... WE printed the other day a curious extract from M. Guizot's contribution on modern European politics to the last number of the Revue des Deux Mondes, entitled France and Prussia before Europe. It is worth while to recur to the passage, both as suggestive of some serious thought, and also because it illustrates oddly enough the extremely imperfect character of the knowledge which is acquired ...

... IVE referred lately to the opinions that Dr. Knox has promulgated concerning the Celtic race, and the odd way in which some of thein at least prove themselves as true at the present day. His views of the Saxon race are no less worthy of considering at this moment. He recognizedas Saxons the English, Dutch, North German, and United States mlen, to which he would no doubt have added the ...

THE advantages of drawing loads on common roads by steam instead of horse power are, under certain circumstances, so great that efforts have been frequently made during the past few years to produce a good and practical traction engine for this purpose.

It is impossible not to perceive that there is a great gulf between the quondam wielder of the English democracy and the Radicals of the extreme and super-refined schools. There is a significant blank in Mr. Bright's prospectus in respect to the questions ...

These accidents all occurred, if we are rot mistaken, early in successive Octobers. Now, late in September, we receive ...
