we do not say-_she is invalid with cold in her head.She is not alone ; her youngest granddaughter is sitting by the window looking out with eyes more dreary than her grandmother\u2019s own, at the gray, fastdrifting, fast-darkening sky, at the wind-tossed trees, and the threatening of storm at hand.It is not owing to any special pleasure Mrs.Windsor takes in lier younger granddaughter's society that she has her here ; hut the cold in lier head, and the perfect tempest of sneezes that now and then convulse her have flown to her visual organs.With eyes weak and watering one cannot amuse one's seif with a book, and to sit here all day alone, and unable to read, is not to he thought of.Reine then is here to read to her.The book is a novel, and an interesting one, hut it lies closed in Reine\u2019s lap now.Grandmamma lias had sufficient unto the day of fiction, and the sorrows of heroes and heroines ; vexations of lier own are beginning to absorb lier.11 That will do,\u201d the says, pettishly; these hooks are all alike.Love must have been invented for the pecuniary benefit of the people who write novels.Ring for Jane, this lemonade is cold.\u201d Reine rises and obeys.The bleak light of the overcast afternoon falls full on her face as she does so, and Mrs.Windsor is struck by the change in it.More than once in the past week that change has surprised her.A great change is there, but it is so subtle she can hardly tell in what it consssts.It-can hardly he loss of color, for Reine never has color\u2014it is more than her dusk complexion looks blanched.It is still more the dreary, lonely look in the large eyes, the curve of the mouth fixed in a sort of steadfast, patient pain.She does not sing, she does not play, she does not talk, she does not smile.She never goes out, she loses flesh and appetite daily, she comes slowly when she is bidden, and goes wearily when she is dismissed, with little more vitality than an autonlaton might show.\u201c Reine,\" her grandmother says, and says it not unkindly, yet with more of curiosity than kindness, \u201c what is the matter with you ?You go gliding about the house like some small gray ghost.Are you not well ?\u201d \u201c I am very well, madame.\u201d She resumes her seat.Jane appears with a fresh and steaming pitcher of lemonade, and departs.The young girl listlessly takes up her hook.\u201c Shall I go on, madame ?\u201d \u201cNo.I'm tired of it; paying attention makes my head ache.But you may as well remain.I expect a person who owes me a sum of money ; he will will want you to write him a receipt.Stay until he comes.\u201d \u2018 She leans hack and closes her eyes.She is a trifle curious still concerning the change in her granddaughter, hut she will inquire no further.Can it be her sister\u2019s absence ?Nonsense ! they seem fond of each other, but to fret over a week\u2019s separation would he ridiculous indeed.- The house seems desolate without Marie\u2019s fair, bright face\u2014she is astonished and vexed at the way she misses her.Then Longworth is absent too, has been absent for five daj-s, and, what is remarkable, Was with Reine in the garden the night before his departure, and yet left without stepping in.That is not like Laurence.She opens her eyes and glances at the motionless gray figure at the window.\u201c Reine.\u201d \u201c Yes, madame.\u201d \u201cDid Laurence Longworth tell you that night last week, where he was going next morning ?\u201d \u201c He did not, madame.\u2019 \u201c Did he tell you he was going at all ?\u201d \u201cNo, madame.\u201d \u201c Did he not even bid you good-bye?\u201d \u201c Not even that.\u201d \u201c Curious 1\u201d says Mrs.Windsor, and knits her brows.\u201c Why then did he come?What did he say ?\u201d \u201c I cannot remember all he said, madame.Certainly not a word about going away the next mornipg.\u201d Mrs.Windsor turns upon lier a keen, sidelong, suspicious look.She is an odd mixture of frankness and reticence, tins' youthful relative of hers; if she has made up her mind to be silent, it will he a difficult matter indeed to induce her to speak.One of her most reticent moods is evidently upon her now.\u201c Can they have quarrelled ?\u201d she muses.\u201c I thought only sentimental simpletons in love quarrelled.And (feuin it cr.FRIDAY, JULY 31 1880.this young woman is not a sentimental, simpleton.And if they have quarrelled.what have they quarrelled about?\u201d She closes her eyes once more, and this time drops into a doze.Reine throws aside the novel with a tired sigh, and takes apathetically enough another book.It is a hook that never leaves Mrs.Windsor\u2019s room\u2014it lies beside the ponderous family Bible, and, like the Bible is rarely opened by its owner.It is a copy of the \u201c Imitation,\u201d beautifully bound, and on the fly leaf, in a large, free hand, is written : \u201c To the Best of Mothers\u2014on lier Birthday, ¦ From her Affectionate Son,\t\u201c George.\u201d She opens the book at random\u2014it is a hook beloved always, and well known.A marker is between the leaves at the chapter called « The King\u2019s Highway of the Holy Cross,\u201d and Reine begins to read.\u201c Sometimes thou shalt be left by God.other times thou shalt be afflicted by thy neighbor, and, what is more, thou shalt often be a trouble to thyself.\u201c F0r God would have thee to suffer tribulations without comfort, and wholly to subject thyself to hrm, and to become more humble by tribulation.\u201c Dost thou think to escape that which no mortal could avoid ?\u201d_____ She can read no more ; she closes the hook, replaces it, folds her arms on the table and lays her face down upon them : \u201c For God would have thee to suffer tribulation without comfoit, and become more humble by tribulation.\u201d Yes, yes, she has been proud, and self-willed, and rebellious, and Iqer punishment has fallen.Her pride is humbled to the very dust, she has been stabbed to the heart in the hour of her exultation.She has lost what she was learning to hold so dear ; she is despised where she was beginning to seek for approbation, scorned where she most wished to be highly held.She does not blame Long-worth\u2014he has acted hastily and rashly; all the same, she could not have explained if he had come in calmest moderation to ask that explanation.How strange he should so have overheard.Is there a fate, a Nemesis, in these things?She does not blame him ; she only feels crushed, stunned, benumbed, left stranded on some barren rock, the land of promise gone forever, with a drearily aching heart, and a sense of loss and lonlinesse forever with her.Six days have passed since that moonlight night by the garden wall, when she had sat with hiddon face, and listened to Longworth\u2019s bitter, scathing words.He had gone the next day, Marie is gone, and Miss Hariatt, by some fatality, is absent for a few days with some country friends.She has not once stirred outside the gates, she has not once seen Durand during this interval.She has said nothing of her broken engagement.When Longworth comes back he will tell her grandmother; he must tell.She does not know what the result will be, she does not care.Nothing worse can happen than has happened already.She lies still for a long time.Shelias slept very little last night, and in the silence and warmth of the room she drops half asleep now.A loud knock at the housedoor startles her into wakefulness.She sits upright, and Catherine opens the parlor door, and announces \u201c Mr.Alar-tin.\u201d Mr.Martin, a bluff elderly man, comes in, and , Reine goes over, and gently awakes her grandmother, and tells her her expected visitor has come.\u201c Well, ma\u2019am,\u201d says Air.Alartin in a hearty voice, \u201c here I am, up to time, and with the money down on the nail.Fifteen hundred and fifty dollars, that\u2019s the amount\u2019 ma\u2019am, ain\u2019t it ?Here\u2019s the cash all correct and proper ; hut count it over\u2014count it over !\u201d \u201c Reine,\u201d Airs.Windsor says, languidly, \u201c count it please, and then_write out Mr.Alartin\u2019s receipt.\u201d Reine obeys.She counts over the roll of bills carefully, finds the amount right produces pen and paper, and- makes'out a receipt for Airs.Windsor to sign.\u201c Take this money up-stairs,\u201d says Mrs.Windsor, \u201c and lock it in the cabinet in my bedroom.Here is the key.\u201d \u201c And when you\u2019ve locked it up, young lady,\u201d interposes Air.Alartin, with refreshingfrankness, \u201cI would advise you to take a turn in the frssh air.One of my girls fainted yesterday, and she didn\u2019t look a mite paler doing it than you do now.\u201d \u201c Yes, go,\u201d her grandmother says, coldly, and looking annoyed ; \u201c the heat of this room makes you look wretchedly.Lock the cabinet and leave the key on my dressing table.\u201d \u201c Ay, ay, look out for the key,\u201d says bluff Air.Martin ; \u201c can\u2019t be too particular about money.It\u2019s a sight easier to lose always than to find.Nobody hadn\u2019t ought to keep money in the house anyhow.\u201d \u201c There is not the slightest danger,\u201d answers Airs.Windsor, still very coldly ; \u201c burglars are almost unknown in Bay-mouth, and I keep no one in my house whose honesty I cannot implicitly trust.\u201d Reine leaves the room and goes slowly to her grandmother\u2019s bed-chamber.The cabinet mentioned is a frail, but very handsome Japanesse affair of ebony, in-laiJ with pearl and silver.She places the roll of notes in one of the drawers, locks it, and lays the key as directed, on the dressing-table.As she descends the stairs again, she encounters Catherine with a letter.\u201cForyou, Aliss Reine,\u201d the woman says, and hands it to her.\u201c Law, miss, how white you do look.Quite fainty-like, I declare.Ain\u2019t you well ?\u201d For Reine, not Alarie, is the favorite of the household now.Time has told, and though Aliss Landelle is as lavish of sweet smiles and gentle words as ever, it has been discovered that she is selfish and exacting, and not at all particular as to how much or how little trouble she may give those who attend her.\u201c She can\u2019t even put on her own clothes, she\u2019s that helpless,\u201d says Catherine, indignantly, \u201c nor so much as button her shoes or her gloves ; hut, it\u2019s please, Catherine, here, and thanks, Catherine, there Catherine, do this, and Catherine, fetch that, and Catherine go for \u2019to her, from morning till night.She don\u2019t mind, bless you, how often she rings her bell and brings you up two flights to ask you where\u2019s the pins that are lying on the table before her eyes, or how her hack hair looks, or her overskirt sets.It don\u2019t tire her legs, you know.Rut Aliss Reine can do things for herself, and find things, and has a little feeling, and would do without what she wanted sooner than make you fly up again before you got right down.Miss Alarie\u2019s pretty as a picture, and smiles sweet, 1 don\u2019t deny, and never says a cross word ; hut give me Aliss Reine for my money, after all.\u201d \u201c I am quite well, thank you, Catharine,\u201d Reine answers and takes her letter.It is from Alarie, the first she has received.She goes out, sits down on the porch, opens eagerly, and reads : Boston, Oct.3rd, 18\u2014, Chere Petite :¦\u2014When you receive this I shall be (as heroines say when they elope) far away.I am not going to elope, but neither am I going back as soon as I intended.Mr.Frank insists on our making a trial trip in the famous yacht, and plead so piteously for my company that it would be cruel to refuse.His mother and a very charming young lady of this city, form the rest of the party.We visit the Isle of Shoals, and will look at some coast scenery for a faw days, not probably more than a week, for I know, in spite of Mr.Frank\u2019s reasoning, that Lshall be sea-sick.It is doubtful, however, if I shall return even at the close of the exenrsion, .for Mrs.Dexter urges both Miss Lee (the Boston lady) and myself to accompany her to Georgia .for a month.Miss Lee has consented, and Mrs.Dexter has written to grandmamma for me.I hope she may say yes, for I shall really like it extremely.Has Leonce gone ?If not, he may as well make up his mind to go.He will certainly gain nothing by remaining.You may show him this letter if you see fit.Adieu Petite.With your devoted Mr.Longworth by your side, your bosom friend, Miss Hariott, close by, you will hardly miss, even if she goes to Georgia, \u201c Your own\tMarie.\u201d The letter drops in Reine\u2019s lap, her hands clasp with a wild gesture.\u201cOh, tnen Dieu!\u201d she says, and sits looking at it, a sort of horror in her eyes.\u201c Gone ! and in the yacht with him ! and to his home in Georgia ! to he absent so long ! Oh, how will I tell Léonce this ?\u201d Ak if her thought had evoked him she sees through the trees, stripped and wind-blown, Durand himself approaching the gate at the moment.Can he he coming in ?She rises, and runs down the path, and meets him just as he lays his hand on the gate.\u201c I could endure it no longer,\" he says, \u201c I made up my mind to brave the dragon,and go to the house and see you.For a week I have been waiting and looking for you in vain.AVhere have you been ?\u2014What is the matter ?You look wretched, Petite ; have yon been ill IT She does not answer.She stands looking at him, the closed gate between, her face grayish pale in the dull evening light, blank terror looking at him out of her eyes.\u201c Is it anything about Marie ?\u201d he demands, quickly ; \u201cis she coming hack ?is that a letter?Let me see it.\u201d He reaches over and takes it out of her hand before she can prevent it.\u201c Léonce,\u201d she exclaims in a terrified voice, \u201c let me tell you first.Do not read the letter.Oh ! Léonce, do not he angry with her! Indeed, indeed she means no harm.\u201d He turns from her, and reads the letter slowly, finishes, and reads it again.The afternoon has worn to evening, and it is nearly dark now, hut Reine can see the look of deadly pallor she knows only too well blanch his face, sees a gleam dark and fierce, and well remembered, come into his eyes.But his manner does not change ; he turns to her quietly and hands it back.\u201c Allons !\u201d he says, \u201c so she has gone.Well, I am not surprised , I half expected as much from the first.If she finds the South pleasant, as how can she otherwise in the society of Air.Dexter, it is probable she will not return for the winter.She likes warmth ; Georgia will suit lier much better than Baymouth and a long northern winter.\u201d \u201c Léonce-\u201d \u201c You are not looking well, Petite,\u201d he interrupts, \u201c and Mr.Longworth is away.Has the one thing to do with the other?\u201d \u201c Listen, Léonce\u2014\u2014\u201d \u201c No, petite ; let us talk and think of you a little.Some one should think of you, for you never had a habit of thinking for yourself.You are looking ill, and I fear you are not happy.I think too, that M.Longworth is jealous of me, and that my presence here may he the cause of your unhappiness.It shall he the cause no longer.I go to-morrow.\u201d His face keeps its settled pallor, his eyes their dark and dangerous gleam, hut his voice is low and quieter, if possible, than usual.She stands looking at him in mute fear.\u201c I ought never to have come.1 know that M.Longworth thinks I am or have been your lover.Undeceive him, Petite, when he returns\u2014tell him the truth.You may trust him ; he loves you\u2014in a cold and unsatisfactory fashion, it may be, but after his light.He will keep the secret, never fear, and then for you all will go velvet.I will not detain you, little one, lest the terrible grandmamma should miss you and make a storm.Whom have- we here ?\u201d He draws back.The house door opens, but it is only Mr.Martin going home.You ought to have a shawl, miss,\u201d says the old farmer ; \u201c it is turning chilly, and you\u2019ll catch cold.Don\u2019t lorget to look after the money.I hope you locked it up all safe ?\u201d Reine hows silently.As he opens the gate he catches sight of Durand, and ejes him keenly.\u201cSho!\u201d thought the Yankee farmer.\u201c I didn\u2019t know she\u2019d got her beau, or I\u2019d have been more careful speakin\u2019 of the money Nobody knows who to trust nowadays.\u201d \u201c Who is that ?\u201d asks Durand.- \u2022 \u201c A man who has been paying grandmamma some money\u201d \u201c A large'sum ?\u2019 \u201c Ffteen hundred dollars.\u201d \u201c I wish I had it,\u201d Durand says, with a short laugh, \u201c I went to Alonaco before I came to America, and won enough to keep me ever since.But I am a beggar once more, and Alonaco is inconveniently far off.\u201d \u201c I cand lend you, Léonce,\u201d Reine says eagerly, taking out her purse.\u201c Ala- dame AVindsor paid me my quarterly____ how shall I call it?\u2014sailary allowance yesterday.I do not want it\u2014pray take it.\u201d \u201c Thanks, Petite\u2014it is like you ; hut no, I will not take it.Keep it for your poor ones.The terrible grandmamma is liberal at least, is she ?\u201d \u201c Most liberal indeed, if money were all.\u201d \u201c I wonder she likes to keep such large sums of money in the house.It is rather lonely here, too.\u201d \u201cShe does not think fifteen hundred dollars a large sum.She generally keeps enough for the current expenses of each month in her room, and there are no robbers in Baymouth.\" Durand\u2019s eves lift and fix for one moment on the room that is grandmamma\u2019s.He knows it, for Reine once pointed it out and her own, and Alarie\u2019s.But tell me of yourself,\u201d she says.\u201c Oh I Léonce, do not follow Marie.Yon may trust her, indeed.She is angry with you, hut she cares nothing for Frank Dexter.It is because she is angry that she goes.You know Alarie\u2014 she is not easily aroused\u2014it is the sweetest temper in the world ; but when aroused-\u201d \u201c Implacable\u2014do I not know it ?How am I to follow her?\u2014she gives no address and I have no money.I must go to New York and join my people ; the opera season approaches.Have no fears of me, m amour\u2014take care of yourself.Tell M.Longworth ; it will be best.\u201d \u201c I cannot.I have promised Marie.\u201d \u201c Break your promise\u2014think of your self; do not sacrafiee your life to he selfishness.She would not for you, be\" lieve me.You love her well, love heC wisely; do not let AI.Longworth make you unhappy by thinking I am your lover.Petite, may I ask you\u2014am I not your brother ?\u2014do you love this stern, cold, proud Monsieur Longworth ?\u201d She turns lier face from him in the dim gloaming, and lie sees a spasm of pain cross it.\u201c Ah ! I see.I wonder if he knows what a heart of gold he has won.Petite, I am going\u2014who knows when and how we may meet again ?Say you forgive me before I go.\u201d \u201c Forgive you, my brother ?\u201d \u201c For coming.I should not have come.I have brought you nothing but trouble.All the amend I can make is to go and return no more.Return I never will \u2014 that I swear ! Petite Reine, adieu !\u201d \u201c Léonce ! Léonce !\u201d she cries, in an agony; \u201cyon mean something.Oh! what is it?\u201d \u201cI mean nothing, dear Petite, hut farewell.Once more, adieu.\u201d He leans forward, and salutes her in his familiar French fashion on both cheeks.Her eyes are full of tears ; something in his faee, in his eyes, as they look at her, chill and terrify her.\u201c Léonce !\u201d she says again ; hut he is gone.Once he looks hack to wave his hand and smile farewell.She stands and watches the light, active figure until he turns the corner and is gone.The darkness has fallen ; she is conscious for the first time how bleaky cold it is.A high wind sweeps around lier, a few drops of rain fall from the overcast sky.Chilled in the wet and windy darkness, she turns, with a shiver, and goes back to the house.CHAPTER XXAL TWO IN THE MORNING.Mrs.Windsor\u2019s influenza is worse, Reine discovers, when she re-enters the parlor, and Airs.AVindsor\u2019s temper suffers in proportion- The paroxysms of sneezing are incessant now ; there appears to be nothing for it but bed betimes, a mustard foot-bath, warm gruel, and a hot supply of hot lemonade.All these remedies, with the help of Jane and Catherine, are attainable.The lady is helped to her chamber, is placed in bed, the night light turned down to a minute point, the door is closed, and she is left to repose.Reine returns below.It is barely eight o.clock, and there is along evening before her.How shall she spend it?If she were in the mood for music, music is out of the question, with grandmamma invalided above.There are books, but she reads a great deal, and even books grow wearisome.\u201c Of the making of many books there is no end, and much learning is a weariness of the flesh.\u201d Elerything is a weariness ; there are good ehings in tho world, but they do not last\u2014nothing lasts hut the disappointments, the sin the suffering, the heart-break.They go on forever.Shall she go and see Aliss Hariott ! Oatherine has just informed her that Candace has informed her that Miss Ha-riott has returned.She has missed her friend unutterably, her strong common sense, her quick, ever-ready sympathy for all troubles, great and little.Her troubles are not little, Reine thinks, ; they are very great and real, and even Aliss Hariott is powerless to help her.Still, it will be something to look into her brave, frank eyes, to feel the strong, cordial clasp ot lier hand, to hear her cheerful, cosy gossip, to sit in that comfortable ingle nook which Longworth talked of so often and likes so well.She goes to the window and looks out at tlffe night\u2014-black, pouring, windy.But she is not afraid of a little rough weather, and the long hours here alone will be simply intolerable.Yes, she will go.She gets her waterproof and rubbers, pulls the hood over her thead, takes an umbrella, looks into the kitchen to tell them, and starts out into the windy darkness.The distance is not long; she knows the road well ; ten minutes\u2019 brisk walk will bring her to the cottage, and does.( To be continued.') OUR EUROPEAN LETTER.CÆSARISM IX THE GERMAN EMPIRE-GROW- ING DISCONTENT UNDER THE RUDE OF iii.oon and iron\u2014Germany\u2019s loss ; AMERICA\u2019S GAIN-JUDGMENT AGAINST PRINCE WILHELM.[From our regular correspondent.] Berlin, Ger., July, 3.The German people seem to be bracing themselves up to a great act of national ingratitude.They are evidently weary of their great Chancellor, and would he glad if he would hand over the administration of the Empire to other hands, if it could be done with due iegard to the feelings of the renowned statesman who made them a nation.Since the termination of the Franco-Prussian war, the Prince cannot be said to have given a right direction to the German Home Government.Instead of diminishing and doing his best to nullify and destroy Parliamentary Government he ought on the contrary to liave increased its authority.The Imperial Government of Germany from its birth has been far too absolute for a free people.It was, m fact, at its origin a war organization, but happily nations are not perpetually at war, and the organization does not require at the pressent time tightening, but slackening.After the Franco-German war it would have been for the advantage of the nation if the army had been considerably reduced.The finances of the nation would have been benefitted by such a step, and the country would have been more prosperous from a material point of view.There would have been less emigiation, less socialism, and less discontent than at present exist within the limits of the German Empire if Prince Bismarck had refrained from demanding more and more soldiers from the German Patliament.I rince Bismarck lias likewise not been more happy in his man-agement of the financial concerns of the Empire previous to the war and the de-monitization of silver has proved to be a costly mistake.No inconsiderable portion of the French indemnity has been sacrificed in a scheme to make a poor country like Germany a rich one at a bound.But there is, however, nothing which Prince Bismarck has done in the past which will prove half as dangerous to the future of the German Empire as the projects attributed to him which have still to be realized.One ot tlie favorite unrealized projects of the Chancellor is to convene Parliament every two years, and to liave tlie Budget voted foi the same period.The German Parliament at present posseses verylittle power.Its control, oyer the military expenditure can be exercised once only in seven years.The taxes voted once remain in permanence, and as Government possesses the sole initiation of legislation, they cannot he' repealed without its consent.At present Prince Bismarck s absolute tendenciesare highly injurious to Germany, and this fact is bégnming to lie apparent to Germans generally.Hence the opposition which the Prince encounters in the German NUMBER 101 Parliament, which he tries to neutralize by trequent threats of resignation.The chief district Court of Hesse-Cas-sel whicli was annexed to Prussia in 1806 has just pronounced judgment against Prince AVilhelm of Hesse-Phil-lipathal-Arhnfield, who, as an agnate relation of tho deposed Sovereign, had laid claim to part of the confiscated State moneys, &c.The Court decided that the trust bonds and domestic treasure are not private property, hut a public encumbered possesion, over which the power of disposal lies not with the civil judge, hut with the political authority of tlie highest order, that is to say tlie King of Prussia.\tLouis.ODDS AND ENDS.A journalistic fight\u2014 A paper mill.AValls

ifs aroma also passes into the lacteal fluid, as witness the various scents and taints which so strongly manifest themselves in butter, such as the early grass of the season, the onions, carrots, turnips, &e.AVe have therefore the flavor sf the dairy prodOct at our discretion, and we know how much the market is influenced by it.It is the controlling elements ; texture, all must yield to flavour ; if this is good, success attends tlie sale ; if had, whether obtained from the feed, or tlie result of exposure, no other excellence can atone for it.And yet how little is it acted upon.AVho aims at flavour?There are those that do and succeed, commanding special prices ; but the great majority continue to feed hay that is dry, hard and flavorless, hav-lost the fine aroma it possessed in its early green state, and which, if made use of at the time, would have added one-third or one-half to the price of butter, which is not only now lost, but the value of the hay otherwise is lessened by its indigestibility, to say nothing of the abstraction of fertility which the land suffers from the ripening process.As to flavor tlie, best is that obtained from the early growth of the grasses when in their tenderest condition.This in oui-latitude covers a period of five or six weeks, beginning about the middle of Alay, and extending to the close of June.I he next best is the young and tender growth of grasses, including the clover, throughout the remainder of the season, particularly during the fail before tlie fiost has injured it.After that carrots, beets and the various grains may be mentioned : also the pumpkin in its season, and the oil meals.Apples, if the best flavored were fed, would probably be a desirable addition ; more might be mentioned.-And here let me ask why the dairy product may not as well he artificially flavored as colored.Let dairymen aim, then, at flavor, not only in pasture, but in the fall, winter and spring feed.By keeping the land enriched, it will push the grass so that there will be more or less fresh, tender herbage, avoiding thus the hard, dry picking which results with poor land in a drouth.Another thing ; do not sufficiently and discriminatingly provide as a supplemet to pasture, green cut feed.The early rye field can hardly' be estimated too highly, aflording a tender feed, excellent for milk and flavor when no other green forage is available.If an early drought occur, as was the case the present season, this early green feed becomes a necessity, and is a most decided advantage.Tlie drought has little effect upon rye, which gets its start from the winter moisture.Orchard grass, where it is on good land, follows close upon rye, is a rich feed, a strong grower, stands the drought well, and imparts a fine flavor to the ni Ik.It is even more important to provide for the great midsummer drought which usually occurs in July and August.Corn, except perhaps the sweet variety, is most used, and is the poorest in nutriment.A et it is watery and grrttefnl as a feed in a dry time.Young! clover then is excellent\u2014second or third cutting\u2014and forms a good exchange with corn.The point is to secure a full fresh feed the whole season through beginning early with rye, and ending with aftermath, which can he fed green almost up to winter, rich in nutriment and of good flavor, \"pc Examiner.SHERBROOKE, JULY 31, 1880.If the session of the Local Legislature just closed is to be judged by the amount of business transacted, it must be pronounced successful, if put by the amount but importance of fhat business then there is ample margin for a difference of opinion, for much of it does not exceed the standard of ordinary municipal legislation, and a large portion of it is trivial and devoted to personal interests.However Government brought the best wares it had to market, and like other expositions made as brilliant a display as possible, on the principle that if they could not convince they might dazzle.The session was unusually well behaved.Members seemed to stand on their good manners, and eschewed, for i time at least, the character of political rowdies.Much credit and some capital is sought to be made for Mr.Chapleau and his colleagues for their abstinence I' om a policythat last session gavethem suh parti zannotorietyand converted the House of Assemblyinto a sort of bear garden.It is encouraging to find that the lesson taught them by the Hon.Mr.Joly and other members how to behave as gentlemen, is not entirely lost on the membersiof the Government, that they have some sense of self-respect, which if feeble is yet enough to restrain the coarser display of their instincts.During the session before the last when the Conservatives were free from the restraints of office, when as oppositionists they availed themselves of their comparative irresponsibility, they were simply demagogues and obstructionists, led by Mr.Chapleau.Instead of attending to their duties which they had sworn to discharge in all their integrity, they devoted the time and industry which should have been given to public matters, to an onslaught on their opponents.Their leader, the present Premier, entered on his crusade, faithfully supported by his adherents, and encouraged by the Legislative Council, which forgot its duties in the excess of its partizanship, harassed the Government by a series of motions of nonconfidence, numbering forty-two, and directed all his energies to embarrass his opponents, to.the utter neglect of the duties he was sent to the Legislature to discharge.When people claim that the session just closed was exceptionally exempt from the factional issues raised last year by the men now in power, the\\ should not forget that Mr.Joly and his friends, at much personal provocation, proved they possessed a higher and better sense of their duties in Parliament than to retaliate on their opponents by adopting,, a vicious parti-zan plan of obstruction, by scheming for office, by every subterfuge and trick that ingenuity could invent and hatred execute.Mr.Chapleau\u2019s programme was conciliation.He proclaimed this loudly on his accession to office and almost abjectly besought it from the opposition on the opening of the session.With a rare generosity Mr.Joly refused to retaliate ; Mr.Chapleau\u2019s own vicious policy of the preceding session was abandoned by the opposition, and it is to be hoped that he and his followers will profit by the example of their opponents.But their history well nigh precludes such a hope.That is one of utter selfishness, of devotion to a party not to principle, of an ignoble ambition that utilizes all all means and adopts all agencies that may lead to the attainment of their object.Mr.Chapleau has however been fortunate in the selection of his friends, both in the House and outside.He has attracted to his assistance some who, if they ever possessed principle, have bartered it for profit and position.The Premier seems to possess a keen perception of the failings and vices in humanity, of the passions that guide and rule it in others.Perhaps he has derived this knowledge from self-examination ; if soothe deductions he made are not wholly inaccurate, and the success of their application is apparent in the adherents who form his body guard.Some of those are his old companions, such as the Messrs Senecal and Dansereau, who recently gave testimony on the investigation on the loan of $300,000 from the Banque du Peuple.So sensitive was Mr.Senecal in his friendship for the Premier, that he actually gave Mr.Prentice $1,500 to enable him to secure a loan for the Government, though Mr.Senecal in his examination before the Committee declares he has no respect for Mr.Prentice, and formed a very low estimate of his character.But his friend the Premier wanted the money to secure Uie loan, and he trusted to the chapter of accidents to be reimbursed, though he at the moment was prospectively in office, and subsequently obtained one of the most important in the gift of the Government.It is something to the credit of human nature to find a man so patriotic, so unselfish and as generous as Mr.Senecal and so grateful as Mr.Chapleau.And Mr.Dansereau who seems to have contributed very little to secure j.he loan but who put Mr.Prentice on the scent of finding the money, is not, if report be true, to be forgotten.Old friendships are strong with Mr.Chapleau ; old claims and old companions have a place in his grateful mem-ry ; and no doubtTn the future as in the past, these friends will be found giving mutual aid and bestowing mutual benefits.Mr.Senecal's generosity and patriotism are proved by giving a man in whom he says he had no confidence the handsome sum of $1,500, to enable him to borrow $300,000 to assist Mr.Chapleau in his dilemma\u2014a dilemma traceable directly to the former extravagance of himself and his friends when they had the direction of financial matters, and from the effect of which the Province suffers to an extent which, even the four million loan will not relieve, as this loan is simply a postponement of the evil day of payment\u2014a payment of one debt by incurring another which doubles the original liability.But Mr.Senecal does not measure his friendship or patriotism by the miserable standard of dollars even though you count them by thousands.He recklessly « casts his bread on the waters,\u201d having unlimited confidence that in some shape his friend will cause it to reappear magnified an hundredfold^ Mr.Senecal is a man of keen instinct and clear vision.He saw into the near future, his way into a railway managership, and was piloted into that comfortable birth by his friend the Premier.It is too much to say, this birth is a full equivalent for the $1,500, principal and interest, but it is safe to lemark that he earned it, and that it was the gift of the Premier, whether it was to be wholly credited to that generous act, or as an earnest of future favors, time will tell.Rarely has a minister been so loyally served by his friends, even by those he bought, though purchased fidelity has always, and naturally been regarded with suspicion as it smells villainously of treason to former friends, associates, and principles.The price for such a sacrifice must be high, but the purchaser is generous and the patronage of the Government is large.Mr.Chapleau like Sir John A.Macdonald appears to be endowed with the power of personal attraction much beyond his colleagues.The Treasurer is greatly deficient in this useful quality.He seems during the loan operation to have been completely isolated, and Mr.Senecal, selected as a sort of quasi substitute, for be states that the first he knew of the one per cent extra having been paid was when Mr.Irvine brought up the matter in the house.Many will admire the equanimity of the Treasurer, on hearing this annoueement.He is the official keeper of the Provincial Treasury.What is taken out and put in should have his cognizance and approval, and the terms on which deposits are made or withdrawn should be within his knowledge and under his superintendance.But ministerial jars are just as unpleasant and dangerous as family divisions.And it was magnanimous on the part of the Treasurer to condone the slight to his office and the personal affront to himself and to his constituency.But on the principle that peacemakers are blessed, those who prevent a breach of the peace should not be wholly excluded from the benediction.Notwithstanding the forbearance and humility of the Treasurer we do object to see him reduced to a figure-head in his own department.It is evident that whatever decisio may be adopted as to the sums owing by indebted municipalitier, the amounts with which they will debited must be liquidated promptly, whether in the shape of municipal debentures or other Local securities.That most of these municipalities are unable to make prompt payments is admitted ; even the wealthier ones cannot at once discharge their liabilities to the Municipal Loan Fund.Time must be given, except the Government, as under the DeBoucher-ville administration, take these municipalities bythe throat and choke them into speedy compliance.The form this debt will take will be that of a new issue of Municipal debentures, probably at short dates, and to cover both principal and interest.Of course much will depend on into whose hands these debentures will fall.If into those of ordinary capitalists, the municipalities need not look for much indulgence.If the Government accept them in payment they must be negotiated with other parties to realize their value, so that whatever disposition is made of them there seems to be small chance of the municipalities being treated with forbearance, should they hereafter, find it necessary, through unforeseen difficulties, to require an extension of time for payment.Should the debentures be held by the Government its necessities are such, caused by former extravagance and mal-administration, that it cannot retain them or wait for their gradual annual redemption even should all the municipalities succeed in making regular payments\u2014a thing extremely unlikely.In this case the debentures will pass into the hands of third parties, or capitalists who will have little sympathy with local difficulties, and look for the redemption of the bond when it becomes due.The people are now disenchanted of the confidence they reposed in the promises of legislators who were ready to pledge themselves, and who did assure their credulous dupes that these loans would never be demanded-that no Government would have the hardihood to enforce their payment.Experience has proved that it was an act of foolish confidence to place any reliance whatever on promises that had no authority to sustain them.The appeal was made to our selfishness to secure support for the candidate or popularity for the representative.But it was delusive, and though the lesson is somewhat expensive, it may abates in the future, our readiness to gulp down and believe similar appeals, which as a rule, are simply political figments, specious statements put forward to deceive, and which should be treated with a prudent distrust.It can hardly be truthfully affirmed that the loan of this municipality has effected much for our material improvement.Doubtless, with a credulity generally shared by other municipalities in similar cases, that we never would be called on for payment, we were foolishly generous to other enterprises ; we voted bonuses with such an open hand that the real estate of the municipality is overburdened.And it requires all the ingenuity of the City Council so to allocate taxation as to _give this species of property some relief.Had the fact been recognized, that the payment of the Municipal Fund loan would be demanded, other obligations would not have been so.lavishly increased, and a wiser financial policy been adopted.There is general and sincere regret felt that the Princess Louise is about to again leave Canada on a visit to her relatives.It is said she was latterly homesick, a nd anxious to get back to her country and friends.This was natural.WEEKLY EXAMINER, SHERBROOKE, QUE.FRIDAY, JULY 31, 880.We had few of her former associations to offer her.She saw all that was worth seeing in the Dominion, and repetition would be monotonous.It is said that one part of her missien was to establish a Court in Canada.If this be eo, we are heartily glad she has failed.The icheme is in utter antagonism to the institutions of the country, and cannot succeed even under the auspices of royalty.If our public men who have coquetted for and received ^handles to their names were aware of the ridicule they create, they would apply at the Herald's office to have their titles obliterated.We know of no higher tribute to a man s worth than the esteem of his fellow citizens, and the vanity of the man who seeks for more must be voracious indeed.An external decoration, whether of order or ribbon, is no guarantee of merit, It may tickle our selfesteem to have or wear them, but the moment we begin to advertize ourselves as pre-eminently good, as superior to our fellows, we excite the pity of some, the jealousy of others,and the ridicule of all.Our taste may lead us to be \u201c pleased with a rattle, or tickled with a straw,\u201d but such a taste consorts pitifully with that manly simplicity of character, that dignified self-reliance and selfesteem which it should be our business to create and encourage as peculiarly suited to our soil and the aspirations of our people.There can be no surer sign of decadence than when a people run hankering after titles,tickling their own vanity with distinctions which are more frequently secured by obsequiousness and sycophancy, or pandering to power, than by merit.We have no room for a \u201c Court,\u201d or what at best would be the parody of one, in Canada.There\u2022 will be a great revolution in the feelings and principles of our people when they tolerate an institution which at no period was the external evidence of a wholesome civilization.Recently the Minister of Militia advertised for tenders for contracts for great coats for the Volunteers.Among the tenderers were Messrs Dussault & Co., of this city, who had lately executed a large contract for the Militia Department, and which gave much satisfaction, both as to material andworkmanship.Itappears the last contract has been given to theWarden of the \u201c penitentiary\u201d at'TCingston.It seems to be a mockery of impartiality and an outrage on fair play, that advertisements were inserted calling for tenders, while it was predetermined to admit convict labor into competition with free labor.In common with others Messrs Dussault have ample cause of complaint against the Government, in that they were the cat\u2019s paw to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for theWarden at Kingston.The Government knew previous to advertizing for tenders, that the work could be done cheaper by convicts than by those who were honestly trying to support their families, pay the taxes and other public charges, even to the supper of the convicts themselves.Knowing this, it looks like something worse than stupidity to call for tenders when there could be no competition.However it brings up the old question of convict ce.free labor, and the claim of the public to be protected against a competition with which they are unable contend.The Government might have saved the expense of advertising at any rate if the \u201c penitentiary \u201d was to be admitted a competitor.In another place will be found the Minority report on the Chapleau\u2014Prentice inquiry.Those who have perused the evidence given at the investigation will perceive the minority report adhères more to facts than that made by the majority, and is therefore more in accordance with the evidence taken and published.The following is the minority report on the Prentice-Chapleau case, which was rejected by a vote of 1 ! to 3 :\u2014 Hon.Mr.Joly moved in amendment, seconded by Hon.Mr.Langelier, \u201c That the said report be not adopted, but that the following be substituted therefor\u20141 With reference to the declaration of Honorable Mr.Irvine, with reference to the loan of $300,000 from La Banque du Peuple, your Committee is of opinion that the evidence has established the correctness thereof.The loan was obtained from the bank by Mr.Prentice at six per cent., of which five cent, were paid by the Government and one per cent, by Mr.Prentice with money borrowed by him from Mr.L.A.Senecal, and that the latter declared he had no expectation of being reimbursed to this amount.Before the $300,000 were paid by the bank to the Government, Mr.Prentice informed Hon.Mr.Chapleau, that in addition to the five per cent, which the Government would have to pay, the loan would necessitate personal sacrifices of Mr.Prentice.When, in reply to Hon.Mr.Irvine, Hon.Mr.Robertson stated in the House that only five per cent, had been paid, of which one per cent, came from Mr.Senecal\u2019s money.With reference to the $4,000,000 loan, your Committee is of opinion that Hon.Mr.Chapleau never positively undertook to entrust the negotiation thereafto Mr.Prentice, but by his correspondence, his conversations with and his conduct towards him, left him under the impression that he would entrust it to bfm, and owing to his being under that impression that Mr.Prentice sacrificed the difference between five per cent, and six per 'cent.on the $300,000 loan from La Banque du Peuple.COMMUNICATIONS.[We do not hold ourselves responsible for the views of our correspondents.] To the Editor ot The Examiner.Sir,\u2014Are we to have the public building promised by the Government or not ?There appears to be an active opposition in Wellington street who seem determined if possible, like the dog in the manger, to kill the whole thing if they cannot have thèir own views carried out.Their project seems to be to sell the City Hall and Market Ground to the Government for about a third of its value, and then remove the Market down to their own door».This latter feature of the case is the secret of their opposition to all other sites.But why is the selection to be left to local squabblings and jealousies.It is impossible to make all agree where selfish interests are involved.Surely the Minister of Public Works ought to decide the matter for himself.If suitable locations are offered, he ought to choose the best and put an end to all further dispute.\tCitizen.Sherbrooke, July 28, 1880.DISASTER IN AFGHANISTAN.gkx.burrough'b column rooted.A terrible disaster is reported from Bombay, in the annihilation of General Burroughs Brigade at Candahar.The British Government is not in full possession of the details of the diastrous eugagement, but it is supposed the Afghans who attacked, and, as reported, destroyedGeneralBui roughs brigade were under the command of Ayoob Khan, who is supposed to have been reinforced by the mutineers consisting of the old Cabul regiments who deserted from ShereAli\u2019s command at Candahar on the 14th inst.Ayoob is merely the tool of the Indian chiefs who are friendly to Russia and opposed to England.This report, if true to the extent feared, will prevent the evacuation of the country by the British indefinately, and protract the war.Owing to the almost dry bed of a river, Ayoob was enabled to strike General Burroughs* force with a greatly superior one, several hours before he was expected.The battle soon almost became a route on the part of the British the slaughter being terrible, and those who could saved themselves by flight to Candahar.The regiments which composed General Burrough\u2019s force at Girishk, which has been annihilated are not definately known, but they included a regiment of cavalry, and the G4th infantry regiment.General Burrough\u2019s forces were dispersed and compelled to fly, being pursued three miles.They are now straggling back to Candahar in driblets.Two guns were lost.It is believed at the War Office that General Burrough\u2019s force consisted of a battery of \u201cB\u201d Brigade of Royal Horse Artillery, the 3rd Regiment ot Scinde Horse, the Poona Horse, a detachment of the 66th Foot, and 14 officers and 470 men of the 1st Bombay Native Infantry and 19th Bombay Native Infantry, making a total of about 2,700 men.The army under Ayoob Khan was stronger than was expected, consisting of 12,000 men and 36 guns, well served.Strong reinforcements had been ordered to the front and troops are to he sent from England.THE PRESS.The midsummer jS'criin^r, for August, opens with a remarkable frontispiece engraving by Cole, from the famous picture of Savonarola, by Fra Bartolommeo.The portrait accompanies \u201c The Plain Story of Savonarola\u2019s Life,\u201d written by the English wife of the Italian Professor Villari Madame Adam (Juliette Lam-ber), editor of La Nouvelle Revue,\u201d the new rival of the \u201cRevue des Deux Monecs,\u201d answers philosophically\u2014and favorably\u2014the question \u201cWill the French Republic Last 7\u201d The most novel and insteresting art feature of the midsummer Scribner is Philip Gilbert Hamerton\u2019s study of \u201c Mr.Seymour Ha-den\u2019s Etchings.\u201d A number of etchings are reproduced in small, with artistic accuracy.It has been left to an American magazine to first enter upon the literal illustration of Dickens, by employing artists to look up the original scenes of his stories.The first of this series appears in the August Scribner, which we can barely enumerate : \u201c Our River,\u201d \u201c The Western Man,\u201d \u201c The Book of Mormon,\u201d \u201c The Sweet o\u2019 the Year,\u201d Albert Rhodes, on American girls who marry foreign titles ; an amusing paper by Mr.Ridening, illustrated, on \u201c The Curiosities of Advertising,\u201d and illustrated paper, by Principal Grant, on the \u201c Present Position and Outlook of Canada,\u201d in a-series which has attracted much attention ; and further instalments of Mr.Schuyler's \u201cPeter the Great \u201d and Mr.Cadie\u2019s \u201c Grandissimes.\u201d Dr.Holland discusses, among other thing, \u201c The Legitimate Novel.\u201d \u201c Uncle Esek\u2019s Wisdom \u201d is a new feature in the Bric-à-Brac department.\u201cSt Nicholas\u201d for August.\u2014A pleasant feature of this vacation number of the Boys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 magazine is the profusely illustrated article, \u201c A Happy Thought for Street Children,\u201d detailing the working of the Evening Post \u201c Fresh Air Excursions \u201d of city-worn little ones every year the delights of a fortnight in the country.Besides the instalments of the two serials, by Louisa M.Alcott and Noah Brooks,\u2014one dealing with sprightly home-life, the other with boys who form a militia company, and have a muster and a sham fight,\u2014-there are sev-erarl complete short stories.Of these, the most notable are : \u201c Marjorie\u2019s Peril,\u201d \u201c The Fox and the Stork,\u201d \u201c Why the Black Cat Winked,\u201d and the \u201c Coral Castle,\u201d a funny narrative, with six comic pictures.There is also an illustrated instalment of \u201cThe Major\u2019s Big-Talk Stories,\u201d relating anecdotes concerning two curious animals,\u2014the Bye-Bye and the Howis'Datforhi.\u201c Placer and Gulch Mining for Gold\u201d are graphically described, and iliustrated, also an account of the \u201c Darning-Needle,\u201d or dragon-fly.The pages of large.type reading mottcr set apart for very little tolk,*and the departments of \u201c Jack-in-the-Pulpit,\u201d \u201c Letter-Box,\u201d and \u201c Riddle-Box,\u201d are made attractive with stories, anecdotes, items, pictures, letters from the boys and girls, and puzzles ; and scattered here and there are many poems, single pictures, and jingles, which fill up eighty pages in a way to make even the rainiest holiday delightful to the youngster who gets this number of the magazine.him are liable to retrogression or progression.(By progression here we mean development and advance to original likeness, for advance may accompany s6me phases of retrogression and vicl vers*)), but unlike him are not responsible for degeneration or improvement.Allow me to state my belief relative to the term improvement.As applied to all but man, I think it means development of innate power.In the first instance they were made at their best,with the provisional or conditional of degeneracy and development.This depends on outward conditions.With man\u2014 that he was unmanned, hut with unlimited possibilities of development depending more on internal than external conditions.This defines the ground of man's responsibility.It does not depend on his environment\u2014i.e.absolutely, if at all.The man of all men had far from the healthiest ot environment.The other passage is Ephesians, 1,10, 12.The antithesis is between \u201c things and we.\u201d .\tK.General News.Esse.It is not our intention to review the opposing theories of \u201ccreationism,\u201d as it would a lengthy and tedious task, jf appropriate to the place or idea of these articles.Avoiding, therefore, the technical phraseology and details, we take for granted that this statement is sufficient.Creationism is the doctrine of those who affirm that each individual, in the totality of being is the result of a distinctive act of the Creator ; as much and completely so as were Adam and Eve.Traducianism on the other hand, maintains that in our first parents the creative act of the Creator as a personal and direct effort ceased ; that they were created with the inherent power of reproducing themselves, subject, of course, to the Supreme Power ; and thus they are responsible for the character and condition of their offspring a£ for any other thought or act.The theories thus boldly, but we trust plainly and comprehensively stated, deal with this question.\u201c Who is responsible for our make-up ?\u201d Or, who is our parent ?If creationism be true, then Pantheism is true in its crudest and- most fatalistic form ; for \u201c all are but parts of one stupendous w\u2019hole, of which nature is the body, and God the soul.\u201d There is a sense in which this is true.As the originator\u2014the causa causarum\u2014and upholder of all God is the soul the life of all ; but not as my soul is to my body, for my body must obey the liberty of any will and therefore is irresponsible.All things are thus related to Him, yet even in those which grow have life with their resposibility is the inverted power of reproduction resultant from the gift with which, e. rHHE undersigned respectfully begs to inform the public generally that he is devoting his
