Dr Livingstone is to be the theme of the prize poem of the Academic Franoaise for 1876. M. Fortin, who recently died, nas left (says the Graphic) all his fortune, amounting to £36,000, to the city of Paris, on condition that it will be employed in building schools for children of both sexes. What greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined for life, to strengthen each other in all labour, to rest on each other in all sorrow, to minister to each other in all pain, to be one with each other in silent, unspeakable memories at the moment of the last parting.
