The following are extracts from another private letter from the pen of Mr.C.Mair, now of Bed River, to his brother Holmes, of Lanark village, which, through the kindness of the latter gentleman, we have been allowed to publish Headquarters, Mlstamiskauo, November 19th, 1868.Dsar Brothib,\u2014I received your long and welcome letter yesterday, and also the papers, bat not yet the \u201cSaturdays \u201d you mention, and which I miss very much.\u2014They will yet come along, I have no doubt but tardily ; as the irregularity of the mails to Fort Garry is simply a matter of course.I wrote to you from Fort Garry, and Dr.Schulte has instructed the editor of the JVbr\u2019- Wester to send on the paper to you and James regularly.Our trip over the prairies was a stupendous novelty to mo.You can imagine nothing like it ; but I shall not dwell npon it here.I also briefly described the appearance of the village of Winnepeg, and I need say nothing further about that either, at present.After putting up at the Dutchman\u2019s hotel there, I went over and stayed at Dr.Schultz\u2019s, after a few days.The change was comfortable, I assure you, from the racket of a motley crowd of half-breeds, playing billiards and drinking, to the qniet and solid comfort at home.* * I was invited to a dinner-party at Beffs, where I found the Governor\u2019s brother-in-law, a wealthy merchant here, Isabister, and other Nor\u2019 Westers.Altogether, I received hospitalities to my heart\u2019s content, and I left the place thoroughly pleased with most that I had met.There are jealousies and heart-burnings, however.Many wealthy people are married to half-breed women, who, having no coat of arms bat a \u201c totem\u201d to look back to, make up for the deficiency by biting at the backs of their \u201c white\u201d sisters.Tho white sisters fall back npon their whiteness, whilst the husbands meet eath other with desperate courtesiesand hospitalities, with a view to filthy lucre in the back-gronnd.We crossed the Red River to St.Boniface, opposite to Fort Garry, the Doctor driving me out in his gig, and drove over the virgin prairie for thirty miles dne east, to Oak Point, which we have dabbed Mlstemiskano, and where we have established our head-quarters.The country traversed is a beautiful one, covered with a tall, luxuriant hay which springs from a loamy surface in many places fonr feet deep, resting npon clay of any depth.Inconceivably rich, indeed, in all this country ; boundless and rich beyond all description or comparison.At Oak Point, wo tented a house from a half-breed, a description of which I have given in my other letter.Here also begin the woods which struck clear through to the Lake of the Wocds.This wood consists mainly of small poplar, a sort of bastard red pine, a few cedars, and vast qoanti ties of red willows, or quawpemug, as the Créés call them.It in no respect resembles a Canadian forest, but rather the growth which springs np in place of a pinery when a fire has swept it away, with this singular difference, however, that it rests upon a perfectly level conntty almost, and is nourished by rich loams, instead of rock and sand.The poplar is the firewood chiefly used here, and is burnt when dry.Few of them are over six inches in diameter, but they burn briskly and give mnch heat.About ten miles from here a all about 1500 men.day on Custer\u2019s battle-field, and found the bodies of Maj.Elliott and 16 soldiers, also the bodies of Mrs.Blinn and child, white captives in the Indian camp.Mrs.Blinn was shot through the forehead, and the child\u2019s brains were dashed out.Gen.Sheridan followed on the trail down the Washita 70 miles, when he came upon the camp of the Kiowaa, who met him with a letter from Gen.Hazen, which declared them to be friendly.Gen.Sheridan required the Indians to accompany him to Fort Cobb, but discovered while travelling towards that point that they were sending their families to the Washita Mountains.Suspecting that they were attempting to deceive him, he took Santantaand Lone Wolf and notified them that he would hold them as hostages, and that if all the Klowas did not come to Fort Cobb he would hang them.Gen.Sheridan says the Indians nov realize for tho first time that winter will not compel to make a truce with them, and adds that the Kiowas have been engaged in the war all the time, and have been playing fast and loose, and that they have attempted to browbeat Gen.Hazen since he came to Fort Cobb, but that he (Sheridan) will take the starch out of them before he leaves them.The Cheyennes, Arapahoes, and one band of letters.Camancbes, with 50 lodges of Kiowa», are now | ported on at the Washita Mountains.Gen.Sheridan, after consultation with Gen.Hazen, proposes when tho Kiowas come in to punish those who are known to have been concerned in personal acts of murder.He will send Black Kettle\u2019s sister out to the Cheyennes and Arapahoes and command them to come in and submit to like treatment.If they refuse to come in, he will carry on the war against them in the Washita Mountains.He will leave with Gen.Hazen a sufficient force to enable him to control the Indians now at Fort Cobb, and each others as may come in there.During the march from Camp Supply the weather and snow were very severe, but the health of the command was good\u2014two men of the 7th Cavalry and six of the 19th Kansas only, being sick.In a private letter to Gen.Sherman, dated one day Ikter, Gen.Sheridan says the Kiowas are coming in, that the Cheyennes have been very humble since their punishment by Gen.Caster, and that he has no donbt that the Arapahoes will surrender and abide by his terms, after which he has no fear of a renewal of hostilities.San Francisco, Jan.3.\u2014Late advices from Arizona state that the Wallopac Indians had broken faith with Col.Price and committed depredations, and that the people of Wicken bnrg and vicinity had organized a company of scouts for the purpose of chastising the Indians ; also, that they had petitioned Gen.Ord for troop§.The Apaches had murdered two men in the Pinca country, and stolen a number of cattle, which the troops had sac ceeded in recapturing.The Pinca Indians had committed outrages near the Maropa weiis, but Gen.Alexander had settled the matter without a resort to arms.The Pinças are numerons and trouble with them is to be avoided.There flour at Prescott or La Paz, and the of Grace.This unseemly exhibition is ill-fitted in the solemnities ot a prayer-meeting.\u201cI never felt so sick in my life, John, I never felt so muchlike taking a walk.And don\u2019t you know, as I stood up there before that congregatioDjI\u2019d have given a million of dollars for somebody to take that rail oat for me.But no;

they made reports or received instructions.He then went to breakfast.All the family met at breakfast, and usually one or two of his married children were present, After breakfast, the Baron went to his office (which was immediately on the street, and separated from his house by the courtyard ; covered way reaching from one to the other) to receive peeple.At two o\u2019clock he would go to the Bourse, or oftener to the auction-mart, for he was fond of having objects of curiosity and pictures.He would return to his office, and at four o\u2019clock drive down to Chateau de Surense or Bols de Bologne, returning at five o\u2019clock to his clnb, where he would play whist at ten sous a point until dinner' time.Daring the last part of his life he became eccentric in a good many small matters.He carried a port-monnaie which was closed by a lock, although ho never carried more than fifty francs about him (\u201c if a man carries more he is sometimes led to extravagant expenses,\u201d he nsed to say,) and often nothing at all.He carried the key of this lock on his watch chain.The members of the clnb in the Rue Royale used to laugh to see the Baron fumbling for his key, and even his lock (bis sight was latterly impaired,) and when, at last, he managed to open the port-monnaie, to find it empty.After dinner he received company at home, or went to some theatre.AN ORDER OF KNIGHTHOOD FOR THE COLONIES.All wh# use Jaeobs* Liquid r*oo«m«a4 it Dee 3Sr 1868.It will be seen from our Ottawa telegraphic despatches that the Imperial Goverument has thought proper to amend the Constitution of one of the Orders of the British Knighthood, so as to render its honors specially applicable as rewards for the public services of eminent persons in the Colonies.There are eight orders of Knighthood in tho British Empire Knights of the Garter, Knights of the Thistle, Knights of St.Patrick, Knights of the Bath, Knights of St.Michael and St.George,Knights of the Guelphs of Hanover, Knights of the Star of India, and Knights Bachelor.The Order thrown open specially for Colonists is that of St.MicbaeLand St.George.It was originally established in 1818, for the purpose of affording marks of honor upon natives of Malta and the Ionian Islands ; and the members of the Order were limited to eight Knights Grand gross, twelve Knights Commander, and twenty-four Companions.The British Monarch was declared sovereign of the Order, and tho Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian Islands, Grand Master.In 1832, the Constitntion of the Order was changed.The Members were increased to fifteen Knights Grand Cross, twenty Knights Commander, and twenty-five Companions; and the honors of the Order were thrown open to all Her Majesty\u2019s subjects.In 1839, a further change was made by which the number of Knights Orand Cross was made unlimited, so far as regarded natives of Great Britain aud Ireland.By the Constitution of the Order, the members of the several grades enjoy rank and precedence throughout the Empire next after the Knights of the Bath of the same grade.\u2014Globe.HUNT\u2019S EMPIRE HAIR OLOSS» tMu best Tonio Hair Dressing ever diseovered.I* effectually cleanses th# scalp, prévenu ths Hair m falling, or turning prematurely grey* rice 25 cents per bottle.MÊt\" tor any of the above, address 6- J.tOSB k CO., Proprietors, Bherhrooke, Qookec-Our Agents are J.K.Burxr, and B.MoLno».Jaa.18.1888.\t\u201d HIDE BOUND HORSES.A horse is said to be hide-bound when his skm will not slip under tho pressure of th# hand, but sticks as if It was glued, which condition is always dependent on a deranged state ef the stomach and digestive organs\u2014by correcting wbloh, and giving to them a healthy tone aid condition, the disease or complsiot will disappear.Experience has proved that the means nest adapted to this end is \u201c Dari ay\u2019s Condition Powders and Arabian Heave Remedy.\u201d It has been nsed In numerous eases with complete sneeess, generally *ffe°t-iag a cure in a few days.It is th# best condition medicine known, and may he given with perfect safety at all times, and does no* require that the horse be kept from work.Remember th* name, and see that the signature of Hurd A Co.is on eaoh package.Northrop A Lyman, Newcastle, Ont., pro- Îrietora tor Canada.Sold in .Quebec by .Masson A Co., W.E.Brunet, E.Giroux, J.B.Burke, R.McLeod, and all Medicine Dealers.Dec 16.1888.\tIm-dAw 43T OOMMEROIA.I-.LATEST MARKETS.(Per Atlantic Cable.)

died Nov 20th, 1863.\u201d The inscription is incised lettering gilt.The cost of the monument, we understand, will be about £800.On comparing the liabilties of the banks for November and the previons month, we cannot bat be «track with the immense increase deposits, which now amount to one-third more than the total paid-up capital.They have never before approached such a sum of $36,-500,000, and the increase during the present fall season is a striking evidence of the plentifulness of the harvest, and the prosperity of the classes from whom most of the private deposits are drawn.The large increase in the deposits of the Bank of Montreal in November was doubtless owing to accumulations in tho Government acconnt, preparatory to the payment of the January interest in London, and disbnrsemente on the Intercolonial Railroad.The total increase in deposits during November was $2,300,000, of which $1,800,000 was with the Bank of Montreal.This plentifulness of money is causing a great demand for investments, and mortgages of a good quality are eagerly picked up at moderate rates of interest, while government and municipal debentures are ia demand at advanced rates.It wonld be a most desirable thing if money became cheap enough for farmers to borrow it to improve their land.There has been a vast amount of foolish money spent by farmers in building fine honses, and fitting them in a style far beyond what their mode of life demanded.A comfortable, warm, and convenient house is always a desideratum on a farm, bat many of the honses built of late years are far beyond any use that farmers can make of them, and add nothing to the value of the property The money wants spending on the land itself, with a view to making it prodnee more.Bountiful as our crops appear to have been in some years, it is well known that the average production even of onr best lands is Car lower than it might be.Dr.Johnson said the man was a benefactor to the coramnnity who made two blades of grass grow where only one grew before, and this is a field of enterprise well worthy the attention of our younger generation of fanners, who are reaping the benefit of their fathers\u2019 labors.With the first generation, it is a desperate struggle for existence for some years, and after that whatever the land produces is thankfully accepted.But with the next generation improvement and development should be the order of the day.The crops of Canada, we believe, might be made worth as many millions of dollars an noally more than they are now, as the expen ses of the Government amount to, and they wonld be if proper care was taken in every section of the country, and in every department of farming work.It is very absurd for the sons of farmers who might do so much towards bringing this about, to fiock into the towns and villages, and tarn their attention to pursuits which are already over-crowded.The laud is the real source of wealth for Canada, and to cultivate the land well so as to make the utmost out of it, is an object worthy of any man\u2019s ambition.The amount of available means possessed by the banks on the 30th November was very MARITIME EXTRACTS Axatiur Thratsjoals.\u2014We understand that the amateurs of the \u201c Champlain Lacrosse Club*' intend giving a theatrical and circus performance some time daring the present mouth.UxDSRWRiTsas' Sals.\u2014We direct attention to the advertisement announcing the sale by auction, on Tuesday, 12th inst., of the damaged flour, batter, provisions, etc., ex Maggie McNeil, on account of the underwriter*.Pxrsoxal.\u2014It is with mnch pleasure we observe tee return to this city of Wm.Petty, Esq., who has been absent for some months on a tour in England for the benefit of his health, which has mnch improved thereby.Tm Wsathsr.\u2014Our first winter thaw set in yesterday, and pedestrians might be seen in numbers moving about the streets armed with umbrellas in anticipation of early rain.It ia probable from present appearances that this weather will last for a few days longer.PsuesTRiAxa look Oct.\u2014We draw the attention of the police to the by-law having reference to clearing the snow from the roofs of booses.Owing to the late thaws, great danger is experienced both by pedestrians and persona driving horses from the large accumulations of ice and snow sliding from the tops of houses.Yesterday, in 8t.Peter street, two persons were knocked down in this manner, and narrowly escaped serious injury.We hope the subject will receire early attention.Laxb Beaufort.\u2014It will be highly grmtify-in|y to the followers of the venerable \u201cIsaack\u201d and the admirers of this beautiful lake to learn that instructions have been received from the Department of Marine and Fisheries putting a stop to all fishing on this lake daring the winter.This step was highly necessary, as it was fast becoming depleted of fish.W« trust the order will be rigorously enforced.'

The smoke from the fire, which is built in the centre of the lodge, issues out of the top, and, though very comfortable with its buffalo robes and skins of all kinds, it has a very rakish and Ojibway-ish look.I never look at once without fancy' ing to myself that it is full of wolves inside.This is the Nor* West Indian's house, and they are to be met with everywhere from Rainy Lake to the Mackenzie River.It looks odd, however, to see them scattered about the village of Winnipeg, where the \u201c poor Indian \u201d comes to barter and drink fire water Next spring, I shall bave an opportunity of smoking the calnmut with the fierce Plain Créés and the Blackfeet, who come down on horse-back annually to have a \u201c talk,\u201d and smoke the pipe of peace with their \u201c Father \u201d at the Stone Fort.These are the rea]|Indians, wild and eloquent ; and the Doctor tells me it is a strange sight to see them at their dances and medicine mysteries, circumscribing that little speck of civilization\u2014the future city of Winnipeg.Many of the Sioux, who committed the horrible outrages in Minnesota, are now about Lake Manitobab, and the Doctor is coming out next week to take me back to the village for a trip np the Assinniboine some seventy miles, to Portage la Prairie and Lake Manitobah.At Portage la Prairie will be the most fiouriahing city in this great West, for many reasons, which I will defer giving until I have been there.So far as I have yet seen, the conntry is great \u2014 inexhaustible \u2014 inconceivably rich.Farming here is a pleasure\u2014there is no toil in it, and all who do farm are comfortable, and some wealthy.What do you think of a farmer within a bowshot of here, being worth seven or eight thonsand pounds sterling, and selling to the Hudson\u2019s Bay Company last week £5,000 stg.worth of cattle ;

and more recently that Her Majesty has been pleased to create a new order of Knighthood, the Star of India, for the reward of services rendered in relation to her Indian Empire.The sphere of usefulness and eminence which is now open in the British colonies, is so varied and extensive as to render it, in Her Majesty\u2019s judgment, advisable that to them as to India, a special form of distinction should be appropriated.For this purpose Her Majesty has been graciously pleased to sanction such a modification of the statutes of the order of St.Michael and St.George, originally instituted by King George III., in connection with his Majesty's Mediterranean possession, and now presided over by a Prince of tho blood royal, together with such an enlargement of its numbers as will render it available as a reward of distinguished merit, or services in any part of Her Majesty\u2019s Colonial Possessions.I annex for publi cation in the Colony under your Government, copies of so much of the new statutes as prescribes the qualification for admtesion into the Order, and the number of Knights.The Queen is confident that this measure will be received by her subjects as an evidence of the importance with *hich Her Majesty attaches to her Colonial Dominions as integral parts of the British Empire ; of her cohstant interest in their progress, and of her desire, that services of which they are the scene, or the occasion, may not doss without adequate and appropriate recognition.(\u201cSigned,) Buckingham a Chandos.\u201d Extract from the Statutes of the most distinguished Order of St.Michael and St.Oeorge, dated 5th December, 1868 :\u2014 \u201c It is ordained that this most distinguished order shall contain three classes, as in onr large, and taken altogether, they are in a post- have to be fed this winter, and it is their own I letters patent mentioned, to be styled and fault\u2014they won't farm.They will hunt buf-I\tre8P\u20acCtive*y\t®ran^ Cross, faloes, drive ox-carts 500 miles np and 500 I Knights Commanders, and Companions, miles back to St.Clond, at the rate of twenty miles a day ;
