· Section IX,
When Confucius went to Wei, Yen-yu driving him, he remarked→The people seem nantetous. Yenyu assenting, asked what was to be done next, and he said—To make them prosperous, and being asked what then, he said-To teach them wisdom.
"That their prosperity might last"
Section X
Were. I the ruler of the country I could effect home progress in a year, but it would need all my time to bing things back to perfect order.
"A great man might work some temporary reform, but the efforts of the best of us are but temporary; men must depend upon themselves." Section XI.
It would take a succession of perfect rulers a hundred years to subdue the wicked and make capital punishment unnecessary, but it might be done. I say it, and I mean it.
"It would probably take more than a century to put down violence, but the question is-is the hangman of any use?
Section XII.

If you could find a perfect ruler, it would take life-time, but at the end you would have a Christian State.
"I trae Christianity be but persistently displayed, men must embrace it."

One day when Yin came back from Court, Confucius remarking it was late, he said he had been en, aged on affairs of State; to this Confucius repled-1" fancy it was the Prince's private affairs, for if there had been any affairs of State upon the tapis, he would have let me know even though I have no office.

A MERRY LITTLE MILL AT RANGOON, The life of an editor.in Rangoon would appear to be not an altogether uninixed blessing. It is not exactly heaven in any part of the work-in fact, a crossing sweeper who has not a sauch softer billet than a knight of the scissors and paste-pot, may consider himself a very badly ured, individual, by a cold and unkind wo lile, but Rangoon, judging from cent experiences, has special disadvantages, The Editor of a con- temporary in that British por ession - we are not quite sure whether of the Guiselte on Times --had occasion to publish something conesning a member of the local bar.

Nothing came of it, though. Then a rock. However, Mr. Hare took umbrage at the delegation, deputied by their comrades, waited verses aforesaid, and demanded an apology, which for the Shah by the roadside the day he went was flatly refused. No doubt our editorial out to the shrine of Shahzadeh Abdül Azrem colleague was fully justified in declining to accede to pray for a safe and prosperous journey. to the barrister's demand; editors are invariably The Shah, however, did not stop to ascertain quite ready to make the amende honorable when their wants, but drove on rapidly past them. actually at fault, but it is a thoroughly under-fn their grief and disappointment some of these The Duke of.

Hoke Ting asking him if there was any one maxim which if carried out would raise a State to prosperity, he said-No, it is too much to expect from one, unless perhaps from the saying To be a Prince is difficult, to be a minister is not easy." If a Prince really understands the difficulty of his position, it might suffice for the prosperity of the State.
The Duke then asking if there wisany one which would lead to the ruin of a State, he said No-it-is-too-much-to-expect from one-maxim, unless perhaps that which expressed in the proverb "My only pleasure as a Prince is to ineet no opposition. Now, if he be a good ruler, and no one oppose his will, it is well enough, but if he be not, the carrying out of this saying might bring a State to ruin, might it not ♪

Section XVI
he said--What you have to try to attain is that your subjects be contented with your rule and strangers seek to place themselves beneath it,
"Which will be best done by letting those under your guidance rule themselves."
Section XVII.
Tz-haia, the Governor of Chu Fu, asking advice of Confucius with regard to the policy of Government, he said-Never hurry, and don't be penny-wise. Hurry prevents things being thoroughly carried out, and care for small advantages will prevent your ever doing any- thing great.
"Petty trifles really have more influence in the affairs of life than matters of importance if we could only disregard mosquitoes, how calmly we could go through life!"
Section XVIII.
The Duke of Shib saying that his people were so upright that if a man stole = sheep his very son would denounce him, Confucius replied Where I come from, the father conceals the misdeeds of his son, and the son those of the father; but the true course lies between the two extremes.
Romen virtue is repulsive if it be heroic."
Section XIX.
Fan-chil asking about the Christian life, he said-Respect yourself; do what you have to do with care; be loyal in your dealings with the world. If you can but do this, you will be safe even in savage lands.
"Even savages appreciate true worth."
Section XX. Tz-hung asking him whom he placed in the first rank, he said-The public officer who is careful of his own honour while he makes his Prince's will respected fer and wide. Who next? said Tr-hung-The man who is acknowledged by his family to be a filial son, and by bis townsmen to be a worthy member of society. Tr-hung then said-Who, might I ask, would you put next Next I should put those who are honest and persevering in their words and deeds; like the pebbles in the brook they are not of much account, but I think they come next. And what, said Tz-bung, do you think of our present publ men? They, sald Confucius, are like a lot of pots and baskets; they are not worth consideration,
"The sage here' forgets his usual respect for those in office, and being in opposition, designates his opponents as pint pots, and baskels such as washerwomen use,"
Section XXZ
As I cannot find men to follow the just mean I must turn to the rash and the fearful; the first will snatch at the truth, the others keep them selves from wrong.
He neither wanted fanatics nor religious monomaniacs, but failing moderate men he had to make the best of what he found,”
Section XXII, E
There is a good proverb in the South, that without balance you will not make a doctor or weather prophet, and to the Yshing there is the sentence The man who has not balance will come perchance to shame *. All they mean Is that without balance you can't prognosticate.
"The mathematiclan must be cool,"
Section XXIII,
The perfect man is kindly disposed to all, but Hentifies himself with novej the common fellow identifies himself with anyone, bif in reality has Kindliness for none, pe
There is a certain solituds in the perfect life, although it densists in sacrifice of self in thought- of others."

at all risks. Mr. Hare did not take the Editor's refusal in good part, and forgot hin.self and his legal training so far as to seek redress in a fashion which would hardly be considered orthodox at the Temple or at Lincoln's Inn. If he were actually libelled he had his legitimate remedy; if the poetic effusion which gave offence did not amount to a libel, it was surely not worth taking notice of! But the gentleman of the wig and gown happens to be a taller and much heavier man than the offending journalist, and doubtless thought himself perfectly safe in taking the law into his own bagd. And he made a mistake-but we will allow the Editor to tell the yarn himself-

HOW TO PRESERVE BEAUTY.
When the Shah was once remonstrated with for having appointed a notoriously base, cruci and grasping man to an important Governorship, he said: "This man will amass in three years as much wealth out of that province as any other man would in ten. He will, therefore, be ripe for me all the sooner. His custom is to struck us two blows, one on the temple and let his dignitaries zob and plunder unmolested another on the mouth, with his clenched fists. | for a certain time and then to pounce upon them Then there was a merry little "mill" for the and squeeze all the stolen money out of them course of about three minutes, in which we again for his own private benefit.

But our modesty prevents us from saying more than that we were able to ward off his wild blows after the two first cowardly ones with which he took us unawares, and that there is not even a crutch on our benign countenance to disturb the serenity of even the most nervous of our admiring lady friends. We do not complain, nor shall we take the legal proceedings we at fist contemplated. We shall not give Mr. Hare the satisfaction of infering that we seek either police or legal protection from any fear of him. If he wants more of the same sort of satisfaction he is welcome to come and have it in a fair and square manner with us butnet by taking us unawares in the dark.
