[" COMMERCIAL AND SHIPPING GAZETTE.JL}.) ¦ .\t111 VOL.XXIX.QUEBEC.WEDNESDAY.JUNE 2.1875.THE DISBANDING OF THE GBAND TRUNK RAILWAY BRIGADE.Wa foal awured that the general public will participate in the regret expressed by Lieut-Uol Worsley at the total dia mena barmen t of so fine a body of volunteers as were the Grand Trunk Railway Brigade, of which he was for many years Brigade Major.What are the motives for thi* action on the part of the Company we are unaware, it may be that the English directors are of opinion that military discipline and drill interfere with and militate against the duties incumbent on a railway employee.If so we are decidedly of opinion that they are in error -, nothing could be more conducing to promptitude, watchfulness, strict obedience to orders, and regularity, than military training, surely the qualities we have mentioued are in the highest degree necessary to those connected with the working of an immense line of railway.The esprit du corps which so particularly characterised this volunteer body had ranked them with the crack regiments of the Dominion and their late Brigade Major, Lt.-Col.Worsley, in his Brigade orders states that they u were as a military body invaluable.\u201d Apart from the benefits accruing to the working powers of the men by military training it served as a healthy and innocent recreation, developing and improving the physical condition of the men, and again keeping the young men away from all alluring and dubious past times, irom drinking and loafing and otherwise misspending their leisure hours.Looked at in any point of view it seems a mistake.However the Militia Department has accepted the re signation of the whole force and all the arms, accoutrements, ammunition and clothing have to be returned to the nearest District stores without delay, so that the splendid G.T.R.Brigade, a credit to the country and an honor to the Com pany has virtually ceased to exist, and we are heartily sorry for it.Paris Correspondence.\u201e\tParis, May 15.theaters.Gym*ass.\u2014La Derniere Poupee, comedy in one act by M.de Najac.The subject of the story is dramatic, but being rendered in a light manner, removes any horror the piece might produce.The plot has been suggested by n.Feuillet\u2019s romance, Julia de 7recœur, who falls in love with her father-in-law, and finishes by committing suicide, by riding on horseback over a cliff, a denouement which secured a tremendous success for the novel.M.de Najac represents the illicit passion with precaution, and the public thanked him, as it U rather tired of snch subjects.Yet it is not the less the realistic manner of Dumas, fils, served up after the fashion of Scribe's u Paternal Jealousy.\u201d Jt is a pleasure to note, that the public taste is returning to Scribe.The plot in question is this ; a young lady \u201c Nelly,\u201d aged 18, has finished her education in the Convent, and returns home to her Mamma, whose second husband is aged only 40 and handsome.Nelly falls in love with him, and he is considered as her \u201c last doll,\u201d which is anything but expressive.Mavillac, the father in-law, cannot do anything without Nelly, Rumor attributes to ladies in their teens a weakness for gentlemen of mature age.Doubtless it is these gentlemen themselves that put the report in circulation.The anonymous gift of a cigar case, brings matters to a crisis.Mme.de Mavillac sees farther than the lovers ; she frightens her husband to undertake a voyage to America for the despatch of business, and consoles Nelly, by finding her a husband in M.de BlancheviUe.The Siece was well received\u2014indelicacies aving been avoided, and well interpreted.Palais Royal.\u2014 Un Mouton a Ventresol, a vaudeville in one act, by Messrs.Labiche and Alberic-Second.This is a piece of rare buffoonery, intended as ail farces, represented at this nouse, to make laughter shake his sides, and is of course a success.One Falmgard, (Brasseur), believes he is a bera veterinary Surgeon, just as one is born poet or cook.Every bons» where he enters as valet, he in time operates on all the pets, as he says himself, they must pay their tribute to nature.He has bled a valuable butcher\u2019s bone to death in his experiments to cure it, and seeks refuge in a tradesman\u2019s family, in order to escape from a threatened bleeding in return from the butcher.He cultivates not the less science while passing his leisure moments in making love to the maids.The mistress is in deep grief at the loss of her cats, her dog, her parrot, and last of all a pet tortoise.Falingard believes he has a perfect cure against the rot in sheep, and considers it a hardship that he is forbidden to bring a mouton, into the apartment on the first floor.But he has discovered that his mistress has a lover, and by using that information, he is allowed to lead a sheep home, and receives the hand of a k pretty house-maid into the bargain.Thkatkr Fkajicais.\u2014 Gabrielle, comedy in five acts, by M.Augier.This play was first produced twenty-five years ago, and was considered to be the representation of the school of -\u2018good sense.\u201d It waa furthermore rewarded with the special prise of fr.10,000, aa combining \u201c literary merit with moral instruction.\u201d The author displays a good deal of independence of thought, and never hesitates to call a spade a spade.The play is very moral, and M intended to demonstrate, that adultery is not without having its grave inconveniences.This truth, however, neither dates from to-day, nor yet five and twenty years ago.The facts of the comedy are not revealed by the action } all is limited to discourses, orations, it the grander word suits better.The husband Julien, is a lawyer, bis «devil\u201d is Stéphane, his wife is named Gabrielle.Stéphane loves Gabrielle, and the latter being left too much alone, the greatest calamity that can befall a wife, is not unwilling to fly with her husband\u2019s secretary, provided the elopement be for ever-which is the usual condition of such a sacrifice.Julien is one of those husbands who is most deceived, because he flatters himself he can never be so ; it is in such a mood and towards the last act, that the spirit moves him to deliver an harangue on conjugal fidelity, with Gabrielle and Stéphane for sole auditors.He depicts the fut ore of the unfaithful wife, her exclu sum from society, her longings to return to her home and the children she has deserted, so eloquently, that he makes a convert actually of Gabrielle, wh > bids Stéphane then and there adieu for ever She was something like the Shepherdess in the pastoral age, listening to the Shepherds piping, in order to bestow the piixe.If adultery, like true love could only be cured by eloquence I In real life matters do not thus occur.Gabrielle could not have a very deep-seated pas aion for Stephana, to be thus conquered by the business pleading of an unsuspecting husband.Culpable or legitimate, true love is a sentiment, strong and ener getio, that laughs alike at loexsmiths, and right words however forcible.Likely GabneUe felt her husband was an honest and worthy father of a family, whose unique care was to assure the happiness of herself and child.But this view des troys all the poetry of the play.However, the piece is never fatiguing, nor is the lesson sought to be inculcated, tiresome The wit is fresh and lively, and the language frank.We smile occasionally j as when Julien complains in Alexandrines\u2014 for the play is in verse\u2014that his chemise has no buttons ; and when his child ap pears to announce, that the laundress has arrived.The representation was a success -, the role of Julien, where Regnier so distinguished himself, was filled by his accomplished pupil, Coquelin, though he had not the sovereign authority, nor the nice shades of his muster.He acts better than be recites, both being at the same time excellent.Mile.Sarah Beru-hardt as Gabrielle, shares with Coquelin the honors of the play ; the part suits her poetical nature, but she presents an ideal picture of her husband, loving him, not because be is an honest man and a worthy father, but on account of his poetic eloquence.Vatorvill*.\u2014Fanny Lear, comedy in five acts by Messrs.Meilhao and Halevy, has been revived at this house with great success, to introduce Mme.Paca after her return from Russia.The authors have cut down the piece ; whether it be an improvement is a question.Scribe observed, that what is cut out is never hissed ; neither may it be added, is it applauded.It is best to remember Mo-here\u2019s physician, who put out one eye of a patient to enable the second to benefit by the change.The piece is neither a comedy nor a drama, if anything it approaches more to the latter.It is the delineation of character that is the attraction.And the authors have this peculiarity over other dramatists, whether they be Sardou, Augier, Dumas, or Bar riere\u2014their creations are the types of living society, of persons that we elbow every day, and whose adventures can only arrive to people of our period.The piece though badly built, is amusing from beginning to end, and the chief figure, Fanny Lear\u2014carries the whole to success.Fanny Lear is a reasoning ad venturess, with a temperament cold, a will terribly tenacious, and she walks towards her ends with a mathematical precision.She is femme galante by trade, but not by instinct.Respectability is her dream; to make order out 6f disorder, her absorbing idea.She is the daughter of an English sailor, who has for five years been the mistress of an English nobleman, and who bequeaths her his property.One part of her programme is thus accomplished\u2014to be immensely nob.She now desires to buy a name and a title.She sueceads in marrying the old Marquis de Noriolis, so degraded by misery and vice, that the lowest London taverns, where he has passed his latter days, would not admit him inside their doors.Fanny now claims the guardianship of his grand child Geneviev erfect, and she seemed to re create the jeautitul air of the prineeas in the open ingof the second act.Mdlle.Kraqss did not succeed aa*a Valentine ; the role does not suit her voie,-, still less the nature .of her lyro-tragica.talent.She was embarrassed in the duet*ot the third act.As.actor .and singer, Faure as de Nevers, was faultless.The summer concerts are in full working order and extensively patronised, thereby drawing off attention from some minor operettas.FASHIONS.May is the month when the season\u2019s novelties become decisive, so that reasonable ladies can have no difficulty in making up their minds.If plaid pat* terns are the rage, rather dull colon) claim the distinction.The Bulgare fold maintains a persistent success, uad tbe tabjjer and the scarf admit of all possible modifications.It is considered.essential that all the jupons, from tbe first to the last; be drawn behind,, so that in .this gathered train, the wearer is tied( j up by drawn strings; the body moves with much difficulty, while the train undulates colored dresses are most in favor the more the widths have [no resemblance with each other; the eccentric is what (ip pears to predominate.Black and white toilettes are very much favored, white lace being worn over black faille, with knots of cream-colored ribbon mixed with black velvet.For travelling, black faille is in much request ; the tunic is a little long behind, and raised gracefully at the sides ; the hat preferred is gen-eratly in English straw, trimmed with black velvet, ox-eye daisies and water-flowers.Of hats generally, fashion varies from simple wreaths of flowers, to strings and veils.The Chinese is becoming a favorite; is made in straw.Seizing well the head, and worn very much behind ; the rim touches the hair, and it is covered with flowers.The straw may be either white, black or brown, but above all the flowers constitute the chief attraction.Irish guipure is coming largely into request as garniture [for robes, frills, manchettes, Ac.Russian lace is also much sought after, and is in perfect taste for costumes, and Belgian lace replaces Valenciennes on jupons.Plain velvet petticoats continue to be worn under light ecru materials.Straw trimmings have appeared, as embroidery and spangles, Ac.; ^bowers of feathers ornament outdoor costumes, and rows of very rich faille trim mantles, scarfs, pelerines and underskirts.Even parasols are bordered with feathers.The large pattern matel-laise ribbon is preferred for scarfs, the narrow for knots, for corsages and headdresses.THE SHIPPING TRADE.The St.John Telegraph publishes the following:\u2014The present depression in the United States, which has reduced the import and export trade of that country very considerably, has also had the effect o( still further reducing its shipping interests, for English, Norwegian and German vessels are now carrying petroleum, gram, etc., at low rates of freight, which United States vessels cannot afford to ac cept.Atone time most of the foreign carrying trade of the United States was done by their own vessels, now three-fourths of the vessels that enter and clear at United States ports are foreign.It is widely different with Great Britain ! The New York Shipping List by a comparison of recent statistics shows that for every foreign ton which enters or clears from the ports of the United Kingdom, 21 tons carry the British flag.After the glish the largest tonnage in this trade is the German, though it is only about one-tenth as large as the English.The Norwegian is nearly as large as the German; the French is less than half the Norwegian; while the United States is materially less than the French and only about one-third of the German.It is a remarkable fact that the Norwegian tonnage in the foreign trade of the United Kingdom is not only the second highest belonging to foreign countries, but that it has been multiplied fourteen times during the last thirty-five years, a most striking increase certainly.The increase of the Norwegian tonnage in the United States trade has been even more remarkable in late years, though not so great as that of the Italian and Austrian Hags combined.Nor has the increase of the Italian, German and Scandinavian tonnage been confined to tbe trade between America and Europe.It has spread very rapidly all oyer the world, during the last ten years, during whiph period the employment of United States tonnage in all the principal foreign trades has decreased.But notwithstanding the rapid increase of Continental tonnage, the English flag *U11 largely preponderates.In 1821 the total shipping of the entire British Empire measured 2,560,203 tons ; in 1872 it had grown to 7,213,829 tons.In the half century, therefore, the British tonnage had nearly trebled.In 1821 the total shipping of the United States, whether engaged in the home or foreign trade, measured 1,232,608 tons ; and the division between the home and tne foreign trades was all but equal.In 1872 the total shipping had increased to 4,481,957 tons.The increase, it will be seen, was proportionately more rapid than in tbe case of the British Empire ; but when we come to look closer, we find that, while the tonnage in the home trade had been multiplied .nearly five times, that in the foreign trade had been little more than doubled.Now, in our home trade only United States built vessels are allowed to engage ; but the home trade includes not only the inpnense trafic on the grea£ lakes and riv -ys, but includes also the traffic between New York and San Francisco\u2014an ocean voyage as long and peril* ous as that between London and Calcutta.By means of the monopoly thus created the coasting tonnage multiplied nearly five times, while the foreign trade tonnage, whiph was exposed to competition, but little more than doubled iq a)! that long period.But when we come to steam tonnage, the United States flag figures still less favorably.In 1872 the steam tonnage of the British Empire reached 1,640,619 tons, while that of the United States was only 177,686 tons, and that of France, 177,462.It is true that the entire steam tonnage ot the United States engaged in the home trade was as much as 933,887 tons.But then the vessels employed in the home trade are debarred from engaging in the foreign, and do not, therefore, eater into competition with the foreign steam fleets.So far as the general carrying trade of the world is concerned,the steam tonnage of theUqited States is not one-sixth that of the British Empire.' But to steamers is falling more and more the commerce of the world ; and it is precisely in steam tonnage that the British marine is increasing.Thus the British steam tonnage added iu 1872 was nearly three times as great os the sailing tonnage added, and, at tfie same time, the steam tonuage, deducted by wrecks and breaking up,was nearly three times less than the sailing tonnage deducted.The depression of the carrying trade during the past two years, however, hah put a check upon British steamship building, and the leading ports of Great Britain are at present crowded with steamers for which no profitable employ ment or sale is to be had.This is a con sequence of the general depression of commerce, which, however, is to be re garded only as a temporary incident.When commerce revives, we may be sure that steamships will again have tbe inside track, for revolutions are not apt to go backwards The temporary activity in the shipyards of the United States, induced by the high freights of two ) ears ago, has now ceased, with no prospects of a speedy revival.The day is apparently not far distant when Canada will own more sea going tonnage than the United Sûtes, which] by their fiscal policy, appear to be doing their best to destroy \u201c interests.at pleasure ; \u2018 to 'compromise matters, the .dressmakers employ iadia rubber as a sub^itute.for the cordons, so that the difficulty to'sit down, or get .into carnage is thus met.PJaid underskirts are much worn beneath light-colored cash meres.Of new materials, the Surah Madras U a pretty silk, supple, of a plaid pattern, and in various colors ; there is also a taffetas called diamant me from the shape of its thousand squares ; lor demi toilette, alpaca, bdobair, woolen poplins and light cloth materials generally, are in favor.At tue race courses, the colors most in favor arejwhite, cream, blue, rose mahogany, green* Jtë'd yellow, to judg/ from the fashionable {[occupants ol tb Grand Stand.Generally the skirt and habit-bodioo makes one, and tho parti* No.10 989.to destroy their own shipping To One and AM.\u2014Are yo\u2019i Raftering from a cnngb, > ol I, MHihma, bronchitis or ary of the vail'ina pnlmonary tronbleR, that so o u n terminate In coiMimpilon ?If bo, use' IKII* bor't Pure Cod Liver Oil and Lime,\" a *>a'e en l «\u2019ffleaplo'is remedy.This In uo quack preparation.but Ih remu ai )y presoilhed by the medic*) faou'ty.Mana'actnred only by A.B.Wii.Boit, OhemKt, Boston.Bo d by all druggist*.May 27, 1875.\tO-co Whay Thit Say of it!

the mest important of which are as follows : that an extraordinary convocation of Chambers may be demanded during proroga iou by one-third of the members of each House instead of lialf as originally ptovided : that war cannot bo declared by the Executive without tho ansent of the Chambers.The first amendment is opposed by the Government.GERMANY.\u2014 AND \u2014 the latest occasion\t___________ privelege the Prince of Wales was among | FrânoU Armamênta'.the number\u2014stating why he called the AT THI* OFFICE.WEDNESDAY, attention of the chair to the fact, but PROMPTLY EXECUTED under the new order of things he must rauDoriiii\tIdecUrewhfhe demand8 theex elusion of the public, and reveal honestly his every motive, before the House, and before the represen Utives of that stronger parliament than the House, public opinion.The amendment also, leaves the Press completely untrammelled.The reporting of proceedings is altogether uninterfered with, and left to the honor of journalists.Speakers mal igned by unscrupulous or disreputable sheets can adopt any course open to them in a court of law, but a division of the House is necasary to the exclusion of the many for the fault committed by one.In England it is not often that a respect able newspaper lends itself to the dirty work of misrepresenting an opponent When the offence is discovered there are ample means at the command of the individual wronged to set himself right hr the eyes of the public and visit the sins of the offender on his head in such a manner as is likely to be severely felt.Mr Disraeli by his action in the matter I of privilege has retrieved in no inconsider-This was | degree the pregtige l06t over the There THE LOCAL ELECTIONS.We took the word of the Evénement for it, and waited till yester Jay to learn of the issue of the writs for the General Elections.That we have been disappointed goes without saying; not a solitary writ has been heard of, and the busy hum of election time seems to be as far off as ever.The Evénement, a journal which we like to quote, because it excites the Canadien to spluttering wrath, says the reason why the Government failed to issue the writs yesterday was that at the last moment objections supervened ; despatches arrived from Messrs.Taillon, in Montreal East, and Beaubien, in Hoche, lag*, and other candidates whose necks are in the halter, informing the Ministry that they are not yet ready, and that they will have to retire if more time is not given them.q>w> signal for a halt, and the issue of the writs is accordingly counter, manded until further 'orders.And the Evénement winds up its sprightly summary by stating that a Council of War is yet sitting on the Esplanade.Seriously Bbrum, June l\u2014The Official Gazette, com-meriting on the Earl of Derby\u2019s statement in the British House of Lords yesterday, sd-m:ts that the increasi of the French army cadres, created a certain amount of unea*i-nets, which was not attended, however, with wailiko resolves or deliberations.In Germany lhe idea of reqaestiog France to reduce her forces, or discon inne military organisation was nevfr entertained or in any way mentioned.Detective Skeffington will take down to Qu- bee this p.m., John Quinn, arrested by Detective Cinqmsis for forgety on the Union Bank to the amount of $300.A disreputab'e woman who forged endorsements is also in custody.A workingman between 30 and 40 years of age, suffering under delirium tremen*, attempted to drown himself in tho (Janai.Mr Lane, of the Montreal Warehousing Co., observed the man struggling in the water, and getting the assistance of Mr.Joo.Norval, engineer, and Mr.W.Curmn, fireman, tho would-be suicide was secured after became to the surface a second time.Julius Davis, a young man who Is connected with the insolvent firm of H.Davis k Co., was arrested last evening by the high coDBtabl», on a police-court warrant, charged with obtaining tho sum of $1,277 on false pretences.There was rather a bettor feeling in the stock market this morning witti the beginning |of the month, and brukers anticipate easier money sales:\u201456 shares Royal Canadian at 94} and 100 at 94} ;

of this apparently purpose 1 ss crime are so revoitiag and shocking that th^y reveal tile work of a monster against whoe-j bloodthirsty nature even childish innoct-aew afforded no protection as soon as an opportunity occurred.There Is no feature of the case that can suggest any possible conception of the ahadow of an excuse for this fiendish ac^ and the community, both citizens and official?, have but one duty to perform, and that is to bunt down the criminal and visit upon him the extremist penalty provided for hia crime as soon ss the guilt of this deed can be proven.This may not be an easy task, but the ctr-cumstance of the case seem to furnish many cluea that might he followed op to a certainty.The nnmber pi well as the tearful character of crimes of this class of Tate make the present doty especially imperative.The shocking murder of Bridget Lasdergan, the brutal assault upon the little daughter of Judge Lowell, the biace ot co)d-blood«d assassinations of which tbe Pomeroy boy has been convicted, all argue with ove whelming force against any further exerci e of clemency thathas its origin in mere a.nUmenfo .Mur-detous manias will increase as long as the law dallies with them.They will diminish when murderers see that to frightful crimes are invariably attached frightful penalties.Let the law be vindicated, that life at least may be better protected.*so°
