BARBARIANS,

"China," said the learned Professor of Greck, is a very remarkable conatry. I don't ask you to believe all that is said concerning its antiquity as a civilisation It may be true that the Chinese knew everything we know ages ago, before our forefathers had begun ovan to realise their own Iguerance. On the other hand, it may not be true-not all tras. We must noods preserve our armoor of scepticism; otherwise wo rolapse into the condition of

Can you conceive what we ourselves should have been without Homer and Virgil, Plato and Cicero, and the rest of those models of form, those librarios of salutary senso and idealism; on which we have been nourished, and by means of which, plonse God, Englishmen will presurya through epatarios yet to come those qualities which have made them the admiration, it net un object of affection, of the who work ?

Strong in the strength of the classics, we are plunged into queried seas of thought; have conquered our fors and adventured into lands unbrown; built up our own claricters and moulded the clusracters of others.

And the poor Chinese? They have stayed where they were.
