No. 4, North Oxford, on Friday, 20tb fast. After tba examination, tbs papite presented ths teacher, Mr. 8. 0. Livingston, wbo is tearing, with an address and a handsome gold chain. Mr. Living*, tea, wbo is going to attend the Brantford Collegiate Insiitute, haa won lb* esteemand reapect of all wbo knew him. and his dep.rlnrej* regretted by the entire com ma nily. The following is the address andreply hundred* of large cotton-mill* are standing -1 idle, or nearly so, for absolate lack of order*.In Scotland, th* already bad stato of affair* .ha* been iucroaaed by the atoppage of large ‘ paving work* employing many hundred* of . men. The effect* of the recent failure* hav* ,■till to be felt in their more indirect bearing, *and till*, Joined to the poor atate of trade, make* the looa-out north of the Tweed indeed a glootny one. In Kent and Samelcountiee then are still enme thoniand* of laborer* locked out, and there appear* at pre- ■ent verv little rhauce of the difficnlty being 1arranged. In the mineral distneta of South 3 Wale* there ha* been little or nothing doing 2for many month*. At no period for the la*tquarter of a century hae the country been in <a etate 1cm calculated to be able to bear any additional taxation than at preeent, and yetthia i* the time choecn by a recklem adminia- jtration to plunge the people into the horror*of a costly war. If England had a few mil- bon* to apare there are plenty of u*ee for .them at home, where they would be more ad- ;vantagcouriy employed than in annexing ‘ Afglianiatan. Nihilism and Socialiaiu, and ’ all the other " i*m*.n which wi*e iLateatnendread, find a fruitful »oil where taxes arehigh and wage* low. Until peace i* a»- 'itfed, I fear them ia little chance of the general revival of trade, bo eagerly hoped for by |many thuti'and* of half-starred operative* and their families.On Sunday afternoon Dean Stanley, whohad jn»t returned from America, was thepreacher at Westminster Abbey, and was listened to by a large congregation. Referring to hi* visit he said the people of the ,present day in England had great retpon*!- bilitie*, for they bad to maintain the goodname of past generations, and they mnst soact that their example might ba safely imita ted by th* son* and daughter* of our flesh inother part* of the world. A word uttered inthu commercial circle* of this country soon reached the ends of the earth, and at once had the effect of inducing othcia to act in a•imilar manner. Thu fraudulent commercial transactions that took place in _ their midst had a distressing influence in similar circle*on the other .id* of the Atlantic, and thethundering of the cannon in the ■now-clad region* of India wm looked for with thegreatest interest. If they, a* a nation, set abad example they must bear the terrible re- ■ponsibilitie*. Such a state of matters oughtto inspire gravity 22 ,h“ nioat trifling soul, and courage in the most cowardly. ai> mat. .be remembered that the people of th? HCW world were our descendants, and that theywere not now, as they had been, ruled by thia country. In the New World they wateb- , cd with interest every instance of commercialdishonesty, all party strife and ecclesiasticbickerings, while on the other hand, all pub lic spirit, any relief given in relation to suf-, fering mankind, or any effort to aid in a justcause promoted by this country, found in the ’ people of America a ready response and hadI warm sympathy. In a wotd, m that country. the people looked for the example, the energy, and the realisation of what was right and proper from England, and they looked withgrateful expectation, from the san's rising till (it* going down in fact, like one watching forth* dawn of miming.r After having been for some time delayed , by accidental circumstaoo**, a first experi- . ment in illuminating Billingsgate Market bymeans of the Jablochkoff electric light wiw» marie on Monday night tinder the auspices of | the Markets Committee o' the Corporation ofIlxindun. The display was givou by sixteen lamps, so placed as to illnminatc the market r most effectively. Their electrical connectionss with the electro motor were subsidiary to the . four circuit*, the temps on each of which were put in action simujtaneonily. By this ar-a rangement any one circuit can bo kept iu ac- il tiou at pleasnr*. On this circuit, on eachcurrent being completed, the temp exhibiteda delicate pink tint, which almost itnmediato-'* ly gave place to the white, or bluish whitelight which those temps normally give out. Occasionally it wa* noticed that the pinkishhue infused itself on the snrfacp of the globe, but the effect was so momentary as hardly tointerrupt the continuity of the white lightAny sudden change in the rate of motion of the generator* by altering the electro motive vf the current might be sufficient to ac-or these varL~“2*,- Which, for the :«• III? !:"ht would be .......* No. 10 2 in Naw nsea have bean found for lb? £ Canal.

Great diversity of opinion prevailed amou{th* tergn body of visitors present at the private vi«w a* to the practical efficiency of the proposed mode of illumination, but the general opinion was decidedly favorable to it.As it* rivalry to gas was involved iu the trial, the electric light* were put out after half an hour’s burning, and the gal jet* of which animmense nuinbrr have hitherto born usedto light the market, were allowed to resume their wonted duty. Gas made by no mean*a bad tight of it w the trial, but a cousidera-hie qnantity of it was flaring away, and the quantity was necessarily an important factorof the result. A link salesman in the marketbit upon an eminently practical expedient for comparing the two lights. Before the electric light* were extinguished he placed a box ofmackerel uear on* of the lamps, and afterwards compared th* illuminating effect with that produced by gas, He wa* understood to declare bi* preference for th* tetter, bat attbwsame time a*id that the electric waa a fine light, and would do well for the market purposes, bat fobs effective th? Dumber of burn er* provided was not safficient. Th* practi cal valu* ot the light round, of tonne,numerous advocates, but there were also, a* waa to be expected, some amount of adverseopinion. In the first blush of actual trial, before the new system ha* had any time to per- feet iteelf in the new situation in which it ha*Seen applied, it would obviously be premature to venture upon any definite expression,one way or the u.her. The Jablochkotf light is to have a four months' trial, and in thattime the question will undergo a sufficient•mount of investigation by the t*<t of experience for it* complete and »*ti«factorydetermination.
