St. Thoma*, July 16.—-One of themost pened in western Ontario occurred at 7 :1s last evening at the crossing of the Michigan Central and tho London and Port Stanloy railway, resulting in the loss of nineteen lives and the injuty CJt «v*K forty pth® JKSTsons, three or four fatally. Golden Text, Matthew 111, 8. Christ's life and the Old Testament prophecies regarding his character apd mission, proceeds how to speak of the ministry of John the. .Baptist.* Seldom has this noble man had full justtee. His humanity h as marked as his - *' bravery and. consecration.

In those days, etc.—The days here mentioned are those during which Christ' was living in obscurity In Raxareth. He -was ■» there subject to his parents; he; wa| there aj , the perfect boy," a mora' difficult conception than that of the perfect- man; he was there * ■ -• not merely.as tho carpenter's son, but as a , carpenter. This fact ought to give inspiration, patienoe and . wisdom to every tree ; workingman. Christ is .his t*st friend. A . period of about twenty-seven years passed' between the time of Christ's going to Naiareth and the beginning of John's ministry. At the ago oi 15 we have our Lord's brie/ visit to Jerusalem with feis-parents. "Again thee*- t tain falls; again the silence becomes almost complete. We have the suggestive sentence that Jesus "increased in wisdom. and knowl. edge and in favor with God and man." This tilence is remarkable. No miracle is record*- '• ed; no glory is displayed; n« heavenly voic* |s heard. This silence, too, is vocal to the thoughtful studdnt. • It teaches valnrfHlo lee*' '"* sons of patience, submission and preparation. .4:.. Came John the Baptist.—The woni "John" means olie Whohl JahovKh haA gracioiisly given. John was six months the.senior, of . Jesus.

It is a great mistake to suppose 'that Gen. Boulanger's isolation from the capital has had the effect to dishearten bim or to cool the ardor of his admirers. Neither the one nor the other of the government's purposes in banishing the ex-war minister to a remote military post has been successful, and it now looks very much as though the cabinet's fight for the prolongation of its existence must hereafter be waged upon the Boulanger issue alone rathor than upon any of the questions arising from its foreign or fiscal policy. Sre is not the slightest doubt that Boufer hopes, and-indeed conflentJally expects, to return to Paris in triumph, and there is nothing in the present situation of his case as between the ministry and tho people to indicate that his return would be ita possible.

A diligent search has revealed statutes and decisions applicable to the case, showing that the civil authorities had the right to take the accused, try him Mdbunish him. In consequence of this a ftortiplaint was made yesterday charging Clark with .murder. A warrant was issued for his arrest. The warrant was placed in the marshal's hand, and a deputy was dis patched at once to the fort to demand the prisoner. 8PORTING MATTERS.

' The violent whistling had alarmed pedestrians and passengers alike, and that a collision wu unavoidable was evident. The passengers cowpjenceSl C;»H'rgDng Croro. «ar windows, and-every was taken advantage of. The majority of the passengers in tbe car next to the engine had got out when tbe engine plunged into the Michigan Central freight train. Engineer Donnelly could bo toon-in .tho cab with • bis band on tho lever, still ondeavoring to make tbe air brakes work. It has transpired that the cavalry and infantry on review at Longchamps were served with ball cartridges, and the government fully expected that their use would be demanded by the exigencies which would arise. That there was no disturbance, apd consequently no necessity for bringing into requisition the moat drastic of the government's precautionary measures, is a fact which caused more surprise than gratification to the ministry, and of this there can be no doubt. A hostile Boulanger demonstration that could have been summarily put down by the heavily armed troops the government had equipped for that purpose would have been a most welcome event to the .ministry, as serving the double purpose of overawing tho adherents of Boulanger and inspiring public confidence in the stability and determination of the present-administration.

V. 3. Repent—This word lneanV, hs its" — composition implies, afterthought, reflection, Lheq change of mind. A comparison of passages wh&tr the Word is found will add other ideas, to this one, e_g., sorrow for and - u- Corsaking of sin, turning to God and change In tho courSe of life. Another word is' found in tho 'Newt Testament and translated. "ra... t ... pent," but this does not so much denote a change of mind as sorrow and remorsA W ' i-ause of the • consequences of the act per-.--— formed. The French press continues to accuse the German embassy of being a bureau of (pies, and both Count von Minister and Lord Lyons, the British ambassador, have renewed their protests qgainst the intuits thus cast , upon the foreign diplomatic corps. The gov'eftmient will doubtless take some stringent measures in the direction of prohibiting the publioation of such articles and will probably succeed ill mollifying the indignant ambassador; but it will be difficult for the ministry to persuade the people that In assuming Its attitude toward Gen. Boulanger, as well as in many other ways, it has not acted ia deference to the wishes of the Berlirt government. " The 'public are rapidly coming to the belief that peace purchased at the price of" German domination of the French governaqatt is altogether to» dearly bought.,' 5 L i i a v . i I Ciwciwnati, July 16.—Members of tho Brooklyn Baseball club, in police court yesterday, were each fined tho costs far playing a game of baseball on Sunday while here on their last trip.

In those days, etc.—The days here mentioned are those during which Christ' was living in obscurity In Raxareth. He -was ■» there subject to his parents; he; wa| there aj , the perfect boy," a mora' difficult conception than that of the perfect- man; he was there * ■ -• not merely.as tho carpenter's son, but as a , carpenter.

A . period of about twenty-seven years passed' between the time of Christ's going to Naiareth and the beginning of John's ministry. At the ago oi 15 we have our Lord's brie/ visit to Jerusalem with feis-parents. "Again thee*- t tain falls; again the silence becomes almost complete. We have the suggestive sentence that Jesus "increased in wisdom. and knowl. edge and in favor with God and man." This tilence is remarkable. No miracle is record*- '• ed; no glory is displayed; n« heavenly voic* |s heard. This silence, too, is vocal to the thoughtful studdnt. • It teaches valnrfHlo lee*' '"* sons of patience, submission and preparation. .4:..

It is a great mistake to suppose 'that Gen. Boulanger's isolation from the capital has had the effect to dishearten bim or to cool the ardor of his admirers. Neither the one nor the other of the government's purposes in banishing the ex-war minister to a remote military post has been successful, and it now looks very much as though the cabinet's fight for the prolongation of its existence must hereafter be waged upon the Boulanger issue alone rathor than upon any of the questions arising from its foreign or fiscal policy. Sre is not the slightest doubt that Boufer hopes, and-indeed conflentJally expects, to return to Paris in triumph, and there is nothing in the present situation of his case as between the ministry and tho people to indicate that his return would be ita possible.

That there was no disturbance, apd consequently no necessity for bringing into requisition the moat drastic of the government's precautionary measures, is a fact which caused more surprise than gratification to the ministry, and of this there can be no doubt. A hostile Boulanger demonstration that could have been summarily put down by the heavily armed troops the government had equipped for that purpose would have been a most welcome event to the .ministry, as serving the double purpose of overawing tho adherents of Boulanger and inspiring public confidence in the stability and determination of the present-administration.
