Everything seems to be fermenting and growing, and jet I have been no rurtnex west than JNiagara. As 1 Btood in the moonlight at that great work and ceaseless labor of nature and saw it for the first time, it looked to me like the incessant activity and .tireless, restless, beating whirlpool of life and existence here. In the everlasting tu mult of the abyss I saw the undying posh and activity of America. In tbe mist cloud that rose in the moonlight I saw images somehow of American des tiny. In the silver column that rose silent into the night I saw the watchful power that should be the pillar of light to the posterity of each nation. The Other impression ,1 1 have had 'very strongly forced upon me is, the ever present hopefulness and bueyancy of the people. Beady ever to step forr ward and try .again what had been abandoned aa beyond the grasp of the older people of Europe, they work night apd day to supersede these progressions by new devices and new methods. 1 Dean Stanley was married in 1862 to Lady Angusta Bruce, daughter of tbe late Earl bf Elgin, and a most intimate friend of Queen Victoria. Her death in 1876 was the occasion of extraordi nary ; manifestations of regard ' for her memory and; sympathy v with her be- xeaved husband both in England and in the United States. V4 !
