[" tfVUtltcJ COMMERCIAL AND SHIPPING GAZETTE VOL.XXXL QUEBEC.2WKDNESDAY.DECEMBER OSMAN PASHA.T ho heroic demeanor of the gallant de* fender of Plevna, in the bitter hour of hie adversity, was described in an inter' aetinc despatch in our last issue and re* called similar events which have earned for some of the greet generals of history a fame even superior to that of their eooque'Mrs.A brave, but fallen man always commands admiration and sympa* thy alike from friend and foe ; but, in the case of Osman Pasha, it was not alone the proofe they had received of his physical courage, but his masterly abilities as an engineer and a leader of men, which won for him the delicate attentions and courteous treatment extended to him by the huasian commander, who felt, no doubt, that in him he had coped with a foe worthy of his steel and therefore, with the instincts of a true soldier, sought to soften his brave adversary's humiliation.His truthful recognition of the gallantry of Osman's defence and the splendor of the latter aa an unparalleled military feat did honor to both his hesd and heart} while, on the other hand, the brave Turk's acknowledgment of the compliment and Of the kindness of his reception was jest what might have been ex peoted from an honorable and unfortun ate soldier.Though humbled and orest-.fallen, wounded and grieving, in his in* terview with the Grand Duke Nicholas, be exhibited all the proverbial pnde and dignity of his race.His stoicism nearly complété, for nothing outwardly marked the feelings, to which his mind must have been a prey at the moment* but the difference between the manner m which be received the greetings of the Russian Grand Duke and those of Prinoe Charles of Houmania.The one he regarded as the traditional enemy of his sovereign and country, from whom it was natural to expect hostility ; the other he, doubtless, felt in his innermetfc heart to be a traitor to his duasrain, who was unworthy the respect of a loyal Turk and an honorable soldier j and he consequently is said to have accepted his oompli-meets m grim silence.Osman Pasha was oertaaly entitled to a better fate than that which the fortune* of war have decreed for him} but, at any rate, it is to be hoped that there is no foundation tor the reports that his wounds are like, iy to prove fatal, or that the superstitious objections of his race to such surgical mess urea as amputation to save his life arc likely to prevail with a man of bis personal courage and abilities.occasion.Ha was saluted by cries of \u201cFalse quantity,\u2019\u2019 Kîo on, neat boy,\" \u201cVery well rend, go three op,\u201d \"Construe,\" \u201cTake a losange,1\u2019 ko.The speech took abont a quarter of an hoar in reading.In the middle of It soother monkey waa hoisted, ranch to the delight of everybody save the Dons.One bold yonng man threw the monkey down, and It dropped abont six yards from Darvln, bat was hoisted np again before any below con Id selae it.Another bold youth sang three verses of the 'Leather Bottel,\u2019 amidst repeated cries of \u2018encore.\u2019 That same youth proposed s riddle, ahontinar at the top of his voice, 'What's the dlfierence between a monkey and \u2014(naming a ranch disliked proctor) T Then, in answer, he yelled ont, \u2018One cracks nuts, the other\u2019s nut's cracked \u2019 Screams, roars, laughter, pandemonium.After the public orator finished, Darwin rose to shake hands with the Dons.'Oo back,\u2019 said one, \u2018Ton\u2019ve left your tail on the chair and 'Walt for yonr brother,\u2019said another, as he launched the monkey at him, which on-happily fell short.Then all was over.We trodped ont, all beaded with perspiration, and ranch thinner than we went in.\u201d SPECIAL FROM TORONTO.Toaorro, Dec.17\u2014Thieve* attempted to break lato the house of Alderman Hallam last night, while he and his family were at church, hot the servant girl let loose a large who compelled the Intruders to make a speedy retreat.At the City Connell meeting this evening, a letter was read from the Deputy Minister of Militia and Defence stating that the applies-tioo for a portion of the ordnance lands for exhibition purposes bad been referred to Major-General Sir Selby Smyth* and Col.Do-rie, A D.G.A conunsnfoatiOD was also read from the latter, asking for particular* sod the amoant of land required.Information has been received from Buffalo a young man named Edward Pierson, hailing from this city, has been taken in cos-tody for thefts committed at a hotel la Clifton ;

Cats Tows, Nov.fi \u2014^Tbe sojourn among us of Mr.H.M.Stanley, the African explorer, fresh from his great achievements of the discovery of the Ciorae of the Lnalaba-Oongo Elver, has absorbed public attention ia oar metropolis for the past week, almost to the exclusion of all concern regarding the Cadre disturbances on the Butera border, now, happily, near an end.It waa a mere chance that drew oar visitor hither and enaoled ns, « the first English-speaking community, to give hima orrdial welcome and hearty \u201e ceogratelatlons oo the important geographical work which he haa so ¦uoceasfally accomplished.His desire to see the remnant of hla faithful followers safely restored to their home at Zsnalbar, whence he took them three years age to cross the continent with him, was the occasion of hla coming.During bis short stay on the West Oosat, at St.Psol de Loendo, Her Majesty's steamer \"Industry,\u201d Captain Dyer, pat in there for coals on her way to tba Cape Station, and the senior naval officer In command, Captain Purr las, immediately offered a pasmge to Mr.Stanley and hla men.Upon arriving in Simeon's 4Bey it was their intention to proceed by the Union Company\u2019s vessels, which leave here once a month tof the East Coast, but it happened that the out.going mail steamer for Zanslbar had that very day taken lis departure.Commodore Sullivan, O.B., now on this station, anticipating the wish of Her Majesty\u2019s Government to assist and do all hoDOQjr to the intrepid traveller, immediately made arrangements for the party proceeding right on t?their destination by the \"Industry,\" which leaves Simon\u2019s Bay to-day, and on her way eastward will stop at East Loadon for a few boars to allow Mr.Stanley to ran np to King William's Town to see Sir P- Frere, who is still detained there by the war on oor border.The quiet inland town of Stellenbosch itself thought It no small honour to receive s visit from Mr.Stanley, who, with Commodore Sullivan, the Dean of Capetown, and a few other friends, accompanied his followers.Triumphal arches were erected, cannon were fired, orowda cheered, and young children strewed the way with fiowera.The Arabe were treated with cakes and oranges, while the traveller and his party were entertained at a public luncheon provided by the municipal councillors and the principal inhabitants.Here, also, an address was presented complimenting him ou the \u201cnnahrinklag self-denial, the indomitable energy, the on-daunted courage, and the never-falling tact which carried him across the African (nnti.nent, In spite of hostile tribes and countless physical difficulties, opening np regions inaccessible sod unknown to civilised man.\" His speech in response to this was vjry different from the préviens ones.Opening with eome remarks appreciative ot the quiet rqral elyaiam which the town presents, he that concluded with a reference to bis own work.He said 4\u2014 \"Il I could have an easy chair sad a quiet hour or two by myself under the shade of some fine patriarchal free abont here, I think For aev«r« Coughs and Hoarseness.Philadelphia, Jan.1, 1876.Messrs.Seth W.Fowl* A Dons : Gentlemen-Mias H.Bums, of 17th and Coatsa Streets, hae long been a sufferer from a severe oougb and boarteuess, which I considered chronic.She wss treated by eome or our most eminent physicians, but tbey were only able t'i afforJ her temporary relief I prescribed Da.Wistar\u2019s Balsam or Wild Chbsrt, the use of four bottles of welch entirely cured her, as It is now four montbs since sbe took the last or it, during wblob tl-a-s she ba-> bad no return of the complaint.For the guod of Buffering humanity, Miss Barns bas requested me to lay tbe case before tbe public.Yours truly, T.D.McQbath, M.D , Druggist and Obemlst.8.£.cor.7lb and Wharton Streets.60 cents and gl a bottle.Bo.d by all ding-gists.December IS, 1877.\tF-dAw THE HORSE.\u2022Of tbe great number of animals under the control of man, tbe horse is unquestionably tbe most serviceable ;

hot at length i settled, with a good comma ad in g Ti«W of the theatre of action.Between tbo opposite galleries the uadsrgiads suspended m rope ; they hang a monkey on it ; they \u2022boated, \u2018Three obeets tor primeval man ?Our father f 'Am I not a man and a brother On another rope they bang one link of chain, this they styled the \u2018missing link.Meanwhile everybody below was laughing we upstate* were shooting, roaring, biasing, groaning, perspiring, charging.After ail the pMrlrfi bad trooped ia, amidst shouts of ap.probation aad the revers*, dandys, public Pfgipy rend n speech written in Latin for the could paid a sweet, exquisite, day .dream or poetlu ideal of A fatore life to which you might aspire here.I could fancy a railway from Boma on the West Coast piercing the heart of the coutinent through to the Zambesi, with a branch to Natal, and another to some port on the West Oosat ; and another striking across and making tbe figure oi a oroes as It came down to tbe Cape of Good Hope, bringing s Indents from those terrible oennibal lands of Central Africa down here to worship in those temples which you people of Stellenbosch have raised, whose white ¦pires I saw glistening against the dark back ground of mountain slopes.(Applause.) 1 could fancy these things, I assure you, were surrounded by olrcnmsUnces which are apt to prodnoe these poetic Ideas.Bnt as it is, I bave Commodore Sullivan here with me today, the chief of the naval forces at Simon\u2019s Town, who, I am sure, if I prolong my speech, will rise to his feet and say, 'Stanley, we lure only jast so many seconds before we most be off.\u2019 (Laughter.) Were it not for this, I might take yon much farther, bat I hope the day will come when England will Mile and take advantage of the discoveries which I have had the trouble to make.(Oheera.) There Is a well-known adage which Mys, 'A word to tbe wise is sufficient.\u2019 Let me tell you that there is a broad river ith one of the finest and most espacions entrance?) in all tbe world, where line-of-battle ships and commercial steamers might enter at all times and seasons, with a depth of 1,312 feet, aad with a volume of 8,500,000 cubic feet of water per second.Ia it poMible that you will not take advantage of this 7 Is is possible that it requires me to show what this might bring you to, when beyond those mountains through which the Congo roars, steep alter steep, there are 2,000 miles of navigable water, to which yon might tarn either south or north to tbe Moautalns of the Moon?(Applsqse.) What does it mean7 It means that hero ia a grand opportunity for England to step in and improve Africa.No outlay of money is needed it is only requisite that England should step forth aad say, \u2018This river here is free to the commerce of the globe, without any differential rights.\u2019 (Applause.) The traders of ail Dations, If they are anffioiently enterprising, can here, by this avenue of commerce, penetrate into any of those regions.Should the missionary, urged, .by some spiritual Impulse, desire to develop# the mental and moral strength of Central Africa, here is a broad field which Le might advantageously enter and select any spot from.Commerce would follow with all those blessings aud benefits which we havs experienced for some ten centuries now, and upon which we so pride ourselves.Commerce, I say, might spread its wings all acroM Africa, from six degrees north latitude to the Cape of Good Hope, claiming mighty England aa the mother of ail.(Applause.)

whether by reason of the kick I gave, and a splinter in the shin, or by habit of the mind, a proud and \u2019«ughty and owdacloos face, aud, an I said to my poor wife, reminded me a little of our Master George ; not tn his ordinary aspect, to be sure, but as Master George might look if he was going to the devil.Pray excoose me, miss, for bad words, hot no good ooea will do justice.And to off he goes, alter one look at me on the ground, not worth considering, with his chin stock up, as if the air was not good enough to b» breathed perpeodlklar like.\u201d \u201cAnd ol course you followed him,\u201d I ex.claimed, perceiving that Btixoo would allow me now to epeek.\u201cWithout any delay you west after him.\u201d \u201cMisa Erma, yon forget what my dooty was.My dootv was to stay by the door and make it fast, as costodiso of all this mansion.No lutie coorosity, or private resentment, could \u2019a borne me out in doing so.As an outraged man I was up for rushing out, but as a trusted official, and responsible head* footman, miss\u2014for I were not butler till nine months after that\u2014my dooty was to put the big bolt in.\u201d \u201cAnd yon did it, without even looking oat to see if he tried to set the house on fixe I Oh, Btixon, I leu that you were frightened.\u201d \u201cNow, Mise Erma, I calls It ungrateful, after all my hefforts to obleege yon, to put a bad construction upon me.You hurts me, miss, la my tonderest parts, as I never thought Master George's darter would 'a doed.But there, they be noue of them as they need to be 1 Master George would 'a said, if he ever had heard it, 'Btlxon, my mao, you have acted for the brst, aud showed a sound discretion.SUxton,\u2019 he would have said, \u2018here's a George and Dragon to reward of your gallant oonduck.\u2019 Ah, that sort oi manliness le died oat now.\u201d This grated at first upon my feelings, because It seemed tainted with selfishness, and it did not entirely agree with my own recol-\u2022 lections oi my father.Bot still Mr.Stixon must have suffered severely iu that conflict, and to blame him for not showing rashness was to misunderstand bis poaitiou.And so, before patting any other questions to him, I felt In my pocket for a new half sjveroiin.which I hoped would answer.Mr.Stixon received It in an absent manner, as ft he were still in the struggle ef his story, and too full ot duty to be thankful.Yet t saw that he did not quite realise the truth of a nobly philosophic proverb\u2014\u201cthe half is more than the whole.\u201d evertheless, he stowed away bis half, la harmony with a good old English taying.\u201cMow, when you were able to get up at Mut,\u201d I inquired, with tender interest, what did you see, sod what did you do, and what cooclnsiou did you come to T\u201d \u201cI came to the conclusion, miss, that I were hurt considerable.Coorosity on my purl were quenched by the way as I bad to rub myasii.But a man Is s man, and tbe last thing to oompiain of is the exercise of Afe functions And when 1 come round I went off to his lordship, as If I bad beared Bis bell ring.All of os knew better than to till him beginning, for he were not what they now call \u2022bailable,' but very much to the contrary.So be says, \u2018You door-to\"1*\u2014what do you want there f And 13 that he got his hot leg up, certain to fly to bad language.According, I asked, with my breath la my hand, If he pleased to see any young man there just now, by rnl Office, and to inventors In every Slate in the Union Address V A.8K0W A Cro, Opposite Patent Offlee, Washington, D.C.February 80, 1877.\t!an4'7S Printed and Published by J.J.FOOTS, Sdi-tor and Proprietor, at his Steam Printing Worku, Mountain HilL bubecrlptlon}\u2014DAILY, $6.00 per annum, WEEKLY, $2.00 in advance.Advertieements for one and two insertions, Eight Cents per Une each.Three or more Four Cents per Line each insertion.Once.Twice or Thrice pas Week Blcfrt Ont \u2022 per Line.eaoh law '?"]
