Dear Sir,\u2014In your yesterday\u2019s issue there is a letter signed E.W.Meddaugh, in which he says the keeper of the bridge over which he passed goibg to the Fails of Montmorency (that ir Dorchester Bridge, the toll being thirty cents i double carriage) demanded Jokf cents discount on a ten cents American silver piece.This the toll-keepers both affirm is a mistake, that they or either of them have not asked or receiveil more than ttco cents, (the amount they have to pay on t-eni when changing the money to make their returns to the office) discount on these ten cent pieces, when they receive or we offered them, which they say is very seldom.There are two toll-keepers, C.Dion and 0.Rheaume, the former twelve, the latter seven years in the employ of the Trust as collectors at that Bridge ; both are well known as being strictly honest, sober, and very civiL This is the first time that a complaint has been made against them of any kind, and this charge they declare is not so as stated, that, that gentleman has made a mistake.-»AH- the toll-keepers have had onlers foa, years not to charge more discount on American money, paper or sihrer, than what they would have to pay the brokers here, when changing it before making their returns to the office.The American visitors as well as all other stiaugers coming to Quebec may rest assured that they will not be subject to any imposition or injustice in paying the tolls for bridges or roads around the city and district of Quebec.Your obedient servant, Jos.Cantillox, .Secretary, Quebec North Shore T.P.Trust.Quebec, 24th August, 1S81.\u201cThe Franchise for Women.\u201d ROYAL MAIL LINE 1881.-OF- 1881.QUEBEC Timber Towers' \u2018\t' \u201c Steamers to the Saguenay.TADOCSAC, CACOFNA, KIVIEBE DU LOUP and MURRAY BAY.THE TIMBER TOWERS OF QUEBEC having formed themselves into an Association for the purpose of securing a fair remu> aeration for their work, and also for the pur, pose of binding the-members to assist one another, when, m consequence of an accident or NOTICE TO_MABINERS.THE \"TIME BALL\u201d OV the Citadel, each day.(Sun- .day exoepted), at half-past Twelve o\u2019clock, will be hoisted half way up, and at five minutes to \u201c One\u201d it will be hoisted to the top, and at \u201cOne o\u2019clock,\u201d Mean Time, it will be dropped.A Chronometer keeping \u201cGreenwich Time ahoolet then shew 5h, 44m.49b., and the differ Mice between this and the time shown bv the faee of her Chronometer is its error on \u201c Greenwich Mean Trine\u2019 at that instant.N.B.\u2014Should the \u201c Ball,\u201d by accident, drop at the wrong time, it will immediately be hoisted half-mast, and kept there half an hour.E.D.ASHE, Commander Row\\l Naij,^ April 30, 1881.Patents -obtained for new inventions, or for improvements in oW » Caveat j, Trade-Marks and ill patent botineei promptly attended to, _ INVENTIONS TEAT HAVE BEEN REJECTED war still, in moat cases, be patented by tu.Tt/in* oooosite the U.S Patent Office, and eu-S/elïTfATBrr BUSINESS EXCLUSIVELY, weean secure patents in less time than thoss whowe remote from Washington andwho must depend upon the mails in all transactions with the Patent Office.When Inventors send model or sketch we make «arch in the Patent Office, and advise as to its patentability free of charge Oorresnom denes confidential.\tlow *nd NO vHAKOE UNLESS PAIENT IS OBTAINED.For special references, terms, advice, 4c., Add\u201d\u201c O.A.SNOW & CO.Orposm Paient Office, Washington, D, 0.- fiowmn t IWGi COMMENCING ON THE 28th OF JUNE, the well-known first-class Steamers \u201cSAGUENAY,\u201d Cart.M.Lecours.\u201cUNION,\u201d\tAlex.Barras.Will leave the St.Andrew\u2019s Wharf as follows : otherwise, the property entrusted to the charge j .,\tS^^AYS, ^7^0 A.5L.of any of the MemW of the Association is In \u201cS^enay,\u201d for Cbmoutimi and Ha !

brief authority, seem bereft of all the finer feelings of humanity and callous to pity in his dealings with those placed under him ?The record of the cruelties committed upon the high seas by masters

difficulty :\u2014\u201cPcfSt Office Department, Washington, D.C., Aug.16th, 1881\u2014Sir,\u2014I have the honorto acknowledge the receipt of Mr.Griffin\u2019s letter of the 12th instant, in which reference is made to the recent visit to Canada of two officers of this department on business connected with the alleged general missuse of the United States mail bags in the domestic mail service of Canada, to the facilities extended to them in prosecuting their inquiries, and to your desire communicated to them to unite in any measure that would satisfactorily accomplish the object of their mission.I desire to state in reply that the regulation for securing the prompt return (empty) of the mail bags of each country by the respected officers of exchange, which were proposed by this Deportment in a letter dated January 28th, and were assented to by your Department in a letter dated April 1st, 1881, would, if strictly observed at the exchangiug post offices, correct the irregularities which they were designed to remedy.These regulations were proposed by my predecessor after his attention had been specially called by the second assistant Postmaster-General to the habitual neglect, for a long series of years, of Postmasters in Canaila to promptly return all the United States mail bags used in despatching mails from this country to Canada, and that in consequence of this neglect large quantities of United States mail bags bad accumulated in Canada and were being utilized in the Canadian postal service.They prescribe\u2014first, that each country in despatching mails shall use only the bags belonging to it ; second, that the Post Office department of each country shall cause all the mail bags received from and belonging to the other to be regularly and promptly sent back empty, with the return mails despatched to it ; and third, that the exchange post offices of both countries shall keep an account of the mail bags as sent and received and exchange receipts for the mail bags received.While these regulations are of reciprocal obligation they were chiefly intended to correct an erroneous practice which it was alleged had for many years extensively obtained at Canadian Government offices, for no complaint had ever been received of the missuse of Canadian mail bags in the United States domestic service, and so far as this department is advised no Canadian bags have ever been so used.If there has (been a single instance of the use of such bags in the domestic service of the United -States, I have no knowledge of it ; that no such use has been made of Canadian mail bags by the United States postal officials is shown by replies lately received to specific inquiries ou that point.Here follow the replies of the United States Postmasters.Steps have been taken by Mr.Musgrove to liberate Potvin on a writ of tia/ra* corpus.He will be before a Supreme Court judge on Friday.He also has retained a writ of certiorari agaiust Coroner Robillard and County Crown-Attorney Lees, for papers in connection with the case.Potvin has failed considerably since he was confined ; he seemed pitch relieved when told of the verdict of the captain or mate more than for murder under any other circumstances.The difficulty is in its administration.The witnesses are few in number, and are often hard to find and harder to keep long enough to await the \u201claw\u2019s delays.\u201d The sailor\u2019s wandering, often reckless, life, his familiarity with hardship and ill-usage,and above all his joy and abandon on reaching port and regaining for a time his too often much abused liberty, make legal proof of crimes of this kind very difficult.And there can be no doubt that there is often a tendency on the phrt of law courts to take a lenient view of harshness and even cruelty on the part of ship officers.Great and perhaps undue consideration is often given to the difficulties of which we have spoken.It is sometimes matter of wonder that the fellow-sailors of a poor victim of abuse do not take the matter into their own hands and protect their comrade from such wanton cruelty, Two facts afford the explanation.The officers are usually well supplied with firearms and are not slow to use them, while the sailors have none.And the well-known severity of the laws of all commercial countries against mutiny, actual or constructive, has a gcat terror for poor Jack.We have no wish to forestall or influence the decision of the Courts in this latest and most flagrant case of inhumanity and murder.If the facts are as alleged, and can be proved, no Canadian Court can hesitate to inflict the fullest penalties of the law.It would be recreant to its high trust if it did.It is time captains and mates who can be guilty of such iflhumaoi ties should be taught by the stem lash of retributive justice, if they will not learn by the light of reason and the example of hundreds of kind-hearted commanders, that the strictest discipline on shipboard, or elsewhere, is quite compatible with the exercise of a just and merciful regard for the comfort and happiness, not to say for the lives, of the poor sailors, whose lot is hard enough at the best They must be made to feel that the law, at any rate, will be no party to the enforcement of discipline by brutal methods, and that the commander who cannot maintain his authority otherwise is not fit for the office and should remain all his life in the forecastle.Such officers as those on the \u201cStar of England\u201d appear to be, probably do more than anyone else to degrade the sailor\u2019s character to its low level and to make it as it so often is, his one hope in life to reach port that he may spend tho earnings of months of hard labor in one long carouse on shore.\u201d , New Publica1 ions.We ought certainly to have noticed long before this Mr.H.J.J.B.Of',,.inard\u2019s admirable volume, which gives a true and perfect account of the great national fete of St.Jean Baptiste, which was held in this city in June, 1880.It was a happy and well-conceived idea to bring together within the limits of a single volume such an interesting colleo-tion of tacts and historical data as are here presented.The material has been well worked up, ably digested and skilfully placed before the reader.The book has a local colouring and a vividness which should make it a most acceptable souvenir, not only to the French Canadians, but to English-speaking Canadians as well, who cannot tail to be attracted and interested by this excellent portraiture ol life and character as it exists to-day.To the future historian of Canada this work should prove a great value, as it paints well and perfectly scenes and incidents which throw light on the Canadian civilization and activity of our own time.It also affords a glimpse into our past, which is striking and picturesque.Mr.Chouinard writes well and feelingly.He enters into his work con amort and spiritedly, and both his authorship and editorship ore to be commended and praised.He was the Secretary-General of the Convention, and is, therefore, in a good position to write and describe the incidents of the fete with superior advantage.The work occupies some 630 pages and treats succinctly of the Convention, the various addresses made, all of them given in full, and all of them admirable, ( some of them notable, such as Mr.Chauveau\u2019s, Judge Routiner's, Rev.Mr.Be dard\u2019s, Hon.Mr.Landry\u2019s, the Rev.M.P&-quet\u2019s, the Hon.,Mr.Lauriers,Mr.P.LeMay\u2019s the Rev.Pare Bourgeois\u2019.A word of praise may also be spoken of the üon.F.G.Mar-chand\u2019s report, Rev.Prof.Laflamme\u2019s report, on the .Sciences, and Mr.B.Suite\u2019s disquisition on Letters, which are quite catholic and instructive.Lora Lome\u2019s speech at the banquet occupies a good place, and reads well.Regarded as a whole this work is imminently useful, and we should think it would make a good prize book for some of onr schools, as it teaches a great deal that French and English Canadians should know of their country and people.Four Ijcauiitul illustrations are to be found in the volume, and they reflect the highest credit on the engraver.The portrait of St.Jeun Baptiste, whioh forms the frontispiece, is exceedingly artistic.Mr.Chouinard is to be heartily congratulated on his book, and we are glad to know that it is msetinp with a large sale.A second edition will likely be called for.We are indebted to the Rev.Dr.D.Maclise, of St.John, N.B., for a copy of his able and beautiful sermon on the Rev.Robert Irvine, D.D., M.D., one of the most eminent of Presbyterian Divines.Dr.Maclise is one of the most profound thinkers and scholars in the Church of Scotland.In the sermon before us be briugs to bear on his subject a wealth of illustration, allusion and idea that is a positive enrichment to the Christian literature of the day.Apart from the personal character of the work, which is very rich and brilliant and affectionate, the enlargement of the'text \u201cKnow ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel,\u201d is very clear, catholic and broad, and full of meaning and force.Tho reasoning is singularly convincing, and like all of Dr.Maclise\u2019s work, it is argumentative and powerful.This sermon has been printed at the reqeest of many of the friends of the late Dr.Irvine, and we, in common with many others, are very glad that the esteemed pastor of tho Calvin Church, St.John, has responded to that request.PRESIDENT GARFIELD.Another Operation With Satisfactory Results.(Per Montreal Line.) Washington, Aug.24.\u2014It is stated Dr.Bliss told a friend last night that everything that could be done by human beings had been resorted to in vain by the surgeons to scatter the swelling of the President\u2019s parotid gland.Secretary Blaine sent the following to Mr.Lowell :\u2014According to the opinion of his physicians, there has been no marked change in the President since last despatch.At this hour, 2.30, there is some indication which they say is in part caused by the increase of the heat of to-day.2.15 p.m.\u2014A careful examination to-day convinced the surgeons that pus had already begun to form in the swollen part.As the patient\u2019s condition is satisfactory, it was decided to make an incision at once.The patient\u2019s pulse rose, but soon fell to the figure of the noon bulletin.The patient is now resting quietly.The patient swallowed today fourteen onnccs of liquid food.Philadelphia, Aug.24.\u2014Dr.Agnew is reported as saying the public have been led to magnify the new danger the President was in and the fear of a sudden change for the worse which the physicians had not looked for.Dr.Agnew stated the President was very weak.He said : \u201cThe caso is by no means hopeless.We do not anticipate a sudden change either for the worse or the better.Our hopes are based on the reinpolative power of the President to restore the strength of his stomach.If in the end the improvement is permanent, his convalescence will be very long.\u201d Dr.Agnew will not return to Washington until Saturday, unless summoned.New York, Aug.24.\u2014A Washington special says :\u2014Dr.Bliss said yesterday the patient was not removed from the White House because the removal would kill him.He has received a letter containing threats of terrible things to be visited upon the heads of the attending physicians if they fail to save the President\u2019s life.The following is a sample manifestation of the President\u2019s delirium : The President awoke with a tickling in the throat, which caused him to cough.Having partially recovered, he said : \u201cI thought I saw a man over in that corner who coughed just when I did, and it annoyed me considerably.\u201d He then began talking with Dr.Bliss rationally.\u201cI wish,\u201d he said,-\u201cI could take my wife and you and your wife and go to Mentor ; or, perhaps, it would be better to ?;o to the seaside.\u201d \u201cWell, all that is coining in uture,\u201d replied Dr.Bliss, \u201cBut when we can get away ?\u2019 asked the President, wearily.\u201cThat, we can\u2019t tell,\u201d answered the doctor.\u201cYou must get so you can sit up first.\u201d The Sun says it is feared the President\u2019s strength has already been exhausted and that were it not for the artificial strength given him a collapse would be a question of a few hours.It seems little doubt the time is rapidly approaching when the inflamed gland must be opened, and this is the operation to be dreaded.Washington, Aug.24, 6.30 p.m.(Official) \u2014Shortly after the noon bulletin was issued an incision was made into the swelling on the right side of the President\u2019s face, for the purpose of relieving the extension of the swollen parotid gland and giving vent to pus, a small quantity of which was evacuated.There was a larger quantity of liquid food by the mouth to-day than yesterday and it lias been entirely free from nausea.His temperature this afternoon is, however, higher than yesterday at the same hour, and the pulse is somewhat more consequent ; the pulse is 108, temperature 109.7, and respiration 19.In lancing the glandular swelling.Dr.Hamilton cut in half an inch when he teached a small pus bag.The surgeons had expected to cut deeper, because they had not determined where the pus bag was, or whether one existed.Dr.Hamilton expresses renewed hope ; Dr.Bliss also gives new encouragement.Dr.Bliss telegraphed Dr.Agnew to-day : \u201cThe subject ot the removal of the President from the White House is being seriously considered.We desire your immediate presence.\u201d Coney Island, Aug.24.-30,000 people assisted at the inauguration of the new anthem to-night, entitled \u201cGod Save our President from every harm.\u201d Evening.\u2014An incision was made in the President\u2019s parotid gland to-day, beohuse view of the low and impoverished condition of the patient\u2019s blood it was thought unsafe to allow pus to remain in the gland, and if not liberated promptly its character might change and the complications be serious.Du Bliss said this evening that the results of the operation were in every way satisfactor, and it was not expected the incision wou at once give permanent relief, or that tho in flammation would immediately subside ; there would probably be a temporary aggravation of the febrile symptoms as consequence of the operation and more pus might form in the swelling.He did not, however, anticipate any further trouble ; the incision would be kept open and if it seemed probable more pus should form it could readily escape.There would, he thought, be no more necessity for any more cutting, After tho operation the patient swallowed food as before without nausea or discomfort.The evening examination showed a slightly higher pulse and temperature than at the corresponding hour last night, but in other respects the condition of the patient unchanged.Colonel Rockwell said :\u2014\u201cThe talk about delirium was all nonseuce.The President isn\u2019t delirious and hasn\u2019t been ; he is sometimes a little incoherent for a moment after he awakes and before he fully gets con trol of his senses, just as any body would be in his weak and debilitated condition, and after seven weeks of fever, but at all other times his mind is as clear as yours or mine Dr.Blaine cabled Mr.Lowell to-night as follows :\u2014\u201cThe President has not gained today.He has had higher fever, which began earlier than is usual with his febrile rise.In the afternoon an incision was made in the swollen parotid gland by Dr.Hamilton.The flow of pus therefrom was small.The one favorable symptom of his swallowing liquid food with apparent relish and digestion has con tinned, but the general feeling up to midnight is one of increased anxiety.\u201d The People Waut Proof.There is no medicine prescribed by phy sicians, or sold by Druggists, that carries such evidence of its success and superior virtue as Boschbk\u2019s German Syrup for severe Coughs, Colds settled on the breast, Consumption, or any disease of the Throat and Lungs.A proof of that fact is that any person afflicted, can get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try its superior effect before buying the regular size at 75 cents.It has lately been introduced in this country from Germany, and its wonder ful cures are astonishing everyone that use it.Three doses will relieve any case, Try it.Sold by all druggists.July 21, 1881.\tct9-Lm MOTHERS !~ MOTHERS I MOTHERS I Are you disturbed at mpht and broken your rest by a ck child Buffering ana yin, with the excruciating painof cutting teeth ?so, go at once and get a bottle of MRS.WINS LOW S SOOTHING SYRUP.It will relieve the poor little sufferer mined Lately\u2014 upon it ;
