maxim "medio lutitsimus ibii," nml urn Insist

well worn, deeply-grooved track 'in which our

Conservatism is tin trite friend of national
progress, at ha" been shown in the world's his
tory hy centuries of bloody trial j mini's concep
tions and desires always transcend i.' powers
by as muck as his menial and mora! nature is
above liia physical ; licnco ho is in constant
danger of over-rating his alrength nnd uf under
taking too much. Thus the governmental re
former, looking forth upon society and behold
ing the lilt that afflict some or perhaps all of
litis fellow men, retires to the solitude of his
stud) to meditate upon some plan for their relief;
at lust he imagines that he lias hit upon a per
fect system oi government, a sure remedy fur
all social evils, and rushes forth like Archimedes
with the ory nf Eurdti" upon his hps. to put
bis theory in pructiue ; but, alas ! too late he
findB that, ia his calculations, Tie has nut Hindu
allowance for tho stubborn iiiuteri ,1 with which
ho has to deal, and for the imperfections which
uattirully belong to all things human ; and he
discovers to his sorrow tlptt ho is centuries
ahead of his age. Jf luenihad in them less nf
tho animal and more of tho divine, and could
leap at onco from degradation to pcrlcctum,
these cloister meditations might be productive
of some good to the world. As it is, however,
it is far better fur governments to heed the blood
writ leaaout of history and experience than In
trust to the theories of any reformer, though
they may appear ever so excellent and beau
tiful. It it front these l'liuclhuii liko cuthiisi
asta that the greutest danger is to be apprehen
ded fur our own government ut this time. We
have among us a class of uivu who feel, or af
fect to feel, great contempt for nil " old fogy"
notions, and who are hetit upon introducing the
millennium at nnoe. The umistuut cry of these
men is that "Revolutions never go backwurds,"
and they are therefore determined to remove
immediately all tho iinperlectiono incident tn
our form of government. The body politic lias
been suffering from a terribly acute disease, re
quiring sharp treatment, but is now happily

, the
Iitut is that revolutions generally go too fur,
sweeping entirely round tho circle, uud bring

it started. History bus show n this repeatedly, as
fur instance, in the French Revolution ; is
Krtincc any better to-day than she was before
