several soldiers were injured.Important Judgment.Mr.Justice McCord, has rendered a judgment of much importance to miners and those interested in mining in the seigniory of Rigaud-V audreuil.\t_\t.The case arose on an injunction taken by Messrs.McArthur Broe., of this city, against Thos.Richards and others, enjoining and ordering them to suspend all their acts of mining now being earned on on the property of Messrs.McArthur Brothers.The injunction had been issued on the order of Mr.Justice A.R.Angers, and a petition was presented to Mr.J ustice McCord to dissolve the injunction of the ground that that remedy had been taken away by statute.Mr.Justice McCord held that the remedy by injunction had not been taken awaj in the present case.We give His Honors judgment at length, as it will be a matter of general interest to our readers at Beauce.A.M\u2019aKTHCR ET AL V3.THOM.RICHARDS, ET AL-On petition to dissolve injunction isaued in the district of Beauce, where there is no resident judge.In this case a writ of injunction has been granted commanding the defendants to discontinue all works upon a piece of land situate in a certain concession of the seigniory of Rigaud-Vaudreuil, and what is now before me to decide upon is a petition to dissolve this writ.The only ground alleged in the petition is that the land is a conceded lot within the meaning of section 14, of the Quebec statute 43-44 V lotoria.chapter 12.\t» Section 17 of this statute enacts that the act respecting writs of injunction, 41 Viet., chapter 14,- not be.applicable to the cases provided for in section 14.There is no doubt that a writ of injunction would lie in this case under the act 41 Viet., chapter 14, and it is therefore incumbent on the petitioner to show that this is one of the cases provided for by the section 14 above mentioned.He h*» produced an extract from the Cadastre which proves to a certain extent that the piece of land referred to is a conceded lot in the seigniory of Rigaud V audreuil and the fact is not denied, but beyond this fact, his case rests merely npon the pretension that it is one of those provided for in section 14.I have studied this section carefully and it appears to me that for two reasons the petitioner\u2019s pretention is not sustainable.Section 14 provides that in the conceded part of the seigniory of Rigaud-Van-dreoil, \u201cwhere there may exist any persons, firms, or companies, otming mining right*, under valid titles, any proprietor oj land comprised in such conceded portion, who has not already divested himself of his mining rights, in tavor of third parties, and who takes out a license for that purpose, or in hi* default any other mi am-, who conform* to the provision* of this act in such case, may minejor gold or silver npon such land.By this law the right to mine is taken from the owner of mining rights under valid title, and given to the proprietor of the land.The provisions of inch a law cannot surely be ex tended by courts of justice and the law should be confined to its express terms and receive a strict interpretation.It appears by the sworn petition upon which the writ was granted, that the plain-riffs are not only the owners of the mining rigUts, but also proprietors of the land GIBRALTAR.Gipraltar, Nov.17\u2014The Spanish authorities insist that there has been no infraction of international law with regard to the Cubau affair, because the refugees were captured on Soanish territory ; the Spaniards do not admit the existence of the neutral zone, where the Cubans were really token, but claim it os Spanish territory.UNITED STATES.Baltimore, Nov.17\u2014A fire occurred today in the wholesale drug warehouse of Gilbert Bros.& Co,, when the fiâmes suddenly enveloped the lower floors.The employees escaped without serions injury : ?ix young women on the fourth floor were brought by the firemen doivn a ladder ;

he will probably die.Whitehall, Nov.17\u2014Three inches of snow fell yesterday.Reports from several points north along I^ake Champlain indicate about the same amount.Chelsea, Vt., Nov.17\u2014Ex-Lieut.-Governor Burnham Martin is dead.New York, Nov.17\u2014A despatch received from Milwaukee says that atmospheric electricity in the country had each immense power as to keep an electric lamp burning.Newark, N.J., Nov.17.\u2014There was an exciting scene this evening in A ice-Chan-cellor Van Fleet\u2019s chambers, at the close of the case of Mrs.Emma Lyons against her husband for the possession of their five-year-old son.Two years ago Lyons began to drink and quarrel with his wife, who went to live with her parents, taking her son.Last week Lyons, who had reformed, went to the house and begged his wife to return to him.She refused and as he left he picked up the boy and carried him away.Mrs.Lyons brought suit against her husband for the recovery of the child and this evening a decision was ren dered in her favor.During the proceedings the child sat by his father and when the Vice-Chancellor ordered him to be given to his mother he looked pitieouslyinto hisfather's face and threw himself npoh the blench, to which he clung tenaciously.When the officers attempted to remove him he cried \u2022 8PBI111L FROM HllIFAI.Halifax, Nov.17.\u2014This has been the coldest day of the season, seme snow falling.On Thursday night Odor-Sergeant Dickson, of the Itoyal Munster Fusiliers.deserted from this garrison and has not since been heard of.He was a married man and is said to have j induced a young woman of Dartmouth to accompany him, P.C.Hill, formerly Provincial Secretary of this Province, and wife, left to-night for Rimouski en route for England, where they intend remaining a year.\tV33**»?James Lawrence, a mason, of Newport, Hants county, while working in a plaster quarry, was crushed to-day by a falling rock and died from his injuries.The Coroner\u2019s inquest on the remains of those burned in the Poor House is proceeding slowly.The evidence so far gives no positive information relative to the origin of the fire, but points strongly to the tire being started in the basement among some chips by a spark from the pipe of some pauper helper or else by an incendiary.With tliejcxception of the superintendent, engineer and the; matron, all the work of the establishment was done by pauper inmates.SPECIAL FROM TORONTO.Toronto, Nov.17\u2014Albert Richardson, 13 years of age, pleaded guilty to-day to having, with several other boys of his own age, burglarized a number of stores.He was remanded for sentence.Fully three-fourths of the burglaries committed at present in the city are the work of boys.Business on the Stock Exchange this morning was not active, except in the case of the Federal and Standard, but prices were generally advanced and the market decidedly improved.The maguetia disturbance to-day is one of the most violent for many yearq, with the exception of that occurring on the 10th of April last.The measurements at the Observatory showed that in less than two minutes time the horizontal force of the earth\u2019s magnetism changed nearly one-tenth of the whole.Argument in the Hall extradition case was not concluded until six o\u2019delock to-night, the prisoner\u2019s counsel talking for more than five hours.The same arguments were used on appeal and the same grounds taken as before the Lower Courts.Judgment was reserved.This is Hall\u2019s last chance.Cmadian Pro*p::ct Mining Company, who?f o\u2019qeot is to pttrobtau mines and other deposit* of gold, silver, copper, coal, albertino, coal oil and all other mineral*, etc , with a capita of 8100,000 in 20.000 shares ot 83c:ieb.Knfiu S.Merrill, Joshua Merrill, J.Porter Waitt, S.Payson Bradley.Edward E.Allan, Hcnn Robbins, Fied Robbins, H.A.Morse, all of Boston ;

the wnt of injunction therefore has legally issued under 41 Vic., c.14, and the petition of the defendants will be dismissed with costs.For petitioners to dissolve the injunction\u2014 Messrs.Andrews, Caron, Andrews A Pent-land and Messrs.Fitzpatrick and Taschereau For McArthur Bros.\u2014Messrs.Gibeone and Aylwin.\u2014Counsel, Hon.Geo.Irvine, Q.C.\u201cBUCHtTPAIBA.\u2019 Quick, complete cure, all annoying Kidney, gladder aad Urinary Diseases, fl, Drus-gists, bitterly and began bleeding at the nose.The Chancellor fearing he might go into convulsions ordered him to be given in charge of the father for the present.When this inducement was made the boy took hold of his father\u2019s hand and accompanied him to the sidewalk, where a coach was waiting.Opelika, Ala., Nov.17\u2014There was a riot here last night in which three men were wounded.Pistols and shot-guns were used.The rbw lasted all night.The destruction of show-windows and lamps was considerable.The riot grew out of a dislike for the city government.About a thousand shots were tired.Boston, Nov.17\u2014The valuation of property in Massachusetts increased 35 millions the past year.Milwaukee, Nov.17\u2014Business on \u2019change was virtually suspended to-day, owing to the lack of telegraph facilities.Bangor, Me., Nov.17.\u2014A telegram was sent to-day from Bangor to North Sydney, a distance of 700 miles, without the nse of a battery.Chicago, Nov.17.\u2014Two-thirds of the sky is ablaze to-night with aurora lights of many colors.Washington, Nov.17.\u2014The magnetic storm seriously interfered with telegraphic communication to and from this city to-day.Before noon all the lines of the Western Union Telegraph Co.running North and West were interrupted by strong earth currents.SOUTD AMERICA.Guayaquil, Ecuador, Nov.17\u2014The Gov ernment forces won a battle at Chambo, 120 miles north of Guayaquil.The President has ordered six days\u2019 mourning for the killed.The details are as yet unknown.SPORTING NEWS.HARK AND HOUNDS.Owing to the great success which attended the meeting of the hares and hounds on Satur day last, there will be another meet this afternoon at 3 o\u2019clock at the same rendezvous, on the St.Foye Road, Messrs.F.Ashe and F.Smith being the hares choeen.PEDESTRIANISM.New \\ork, November 17\u2014The third running race between Myers and George has been declared off, owing to the illness of Myers.CHESS.Philadelphia, Nov.17.\u2014 The third game of chess between Steinitz and Martinez was won by the former.PUGILISTIC.Washington, Nov.17\u2014The announcement that a local boxer would face the pugilist Sullivan, for four rounds of three minutes each, with soft gloves, drew two thousand people to the Theatre Comique to-night.The exhibition was interrupted by the police be-foré the first round was completed, but not until the amateur had been knocked down seven times and the entire audience was satis fied that the brutal exhibition had proceeded far\u2019 enough.A barley blacksmith named Rainey was Sullivan\u2019s antagonist ;

to that the disallowance cry, arising from a political origin, is, of all others, the least reasonable and least likely to load toft sensible solution of the difficulties connected with tlio question.\u2019 The Commercial also commends the honesty of Mr* Norqi'ay\u2019s course in appealing to the country at this time.Dissolution, under the circumstances, cannot be called, it thinks, a hasty or ill-judged step, or an attempt at a coup d'etat.The opposition side of the question is pretty clearly stated in the Toronto Globe.Our contemporary has this to say on the subject :\u2014 \u201c There is a characteristic mixture of cowardice and craft iu the programme of the Manitoba Local Government.The Load House has been dissolved, we are told, be cause the dissolution will save the expense of session, some $20,000, and because the House is supposed not to represent the feeling of the country on the matter of disallowance It appears to us that to incur the very great expense of a general election and then to have a session of the Legislature is a very queer way of saving tho expense of a session.And as to the present House not representing the feeling of the country, there is not the slightest tittle of evidence of the fact to l>e found in the press of Manitoba.Indeed it is quite clear that Mf.Norquay decided not to call the House together simply for the reason that he knew the disallowed charters would be re-enacted ; and if they had been reenacted before the new Governor, ex-Senator Aikins, had assumed office, they would have received the Royal Assent.But Mr.Norquay has now managed it so that tho charters cannot be passed upon by the Legislature until the Lieutenant-Governorship is tilled by an obedient servant of the Dominion Government.Mr.Aikins doubtless takes up with him explicit instructions to reserve for consideration at Ottawa any and every measure likely to be distasteful to the Syndicate.It is, therefore, almost a foregone conclusion that, by the collusion of Sir John Macdonald and Mr.Norquay, the Province has been cheated out of the means of making a clear expression of its will.Of course, the reap sibility of the Dominion Government will all the same whether the will of the Legislature is defeated at Winnipeg or at Ottawa.The Dominion Government evidently foresees an outburst of wrath com pareil wit h which the present excitement in Manitoba is as nothing, and is preparing to meet it in the usual way.The intention clearly is to attempt by bribery to secure acquiescence in the Federal usurpation.By tho very act of ottering a bribe the Government will admit that it is in the wrong in the interpretation of the Syndicate bargain under which the disallowance is made.That being so, the Manitobans will be more than ever encouraged to stand up for what no one seriously denies are their rights.As for the bribing of Manitoba by gifts from Ottawa, it is easily seen what chance such a despicable policy would have when the attitude of the Province at the late Dominion election is studied.The people did not hesitate, then, to go into opposition against a powerful and unscrupulous Government.They will not hesitate to repeat their verdict next month.The question of Disallowance is one too great to be mixed up with any matter of subsidies or Crown lands.No bribe that it is within tho power of the Dominion Government to bestow can be compared in importance for one moment with the vast question of Provincial rights, which is now up for settlement.To acquiesce in the Dominion\u2019s unconstitutional interference in Provincial affairs is to establish a precedent from which these Provinces would suffer as long as Confederation lasts.Let first the Federal usurpation be rebuked.Then will be the time for Manitoba to press the claims it has for consideration, and we are sure no party will be found to take an unreasonable view of the necessities of the Province.\u201d This is a sever© arraignment, but it is more partisan than just.THE MORNING CHRONICLE, SATURDAY.NOVEMBER 18, 1882.News of tlie City and District.and the general public and politicians of both 1 parties must

excitement prevails all through the country, and reliable information seems to indicate lively times ahead for both parties to the fight.On the 15th instant there was an enthusiastic meeting of the Conservatives at Winnipeg, at which the attendance was large and influential.On Thursday a mass meeting of the electors was held in the northern division of the city, at which many excited speeches were made, and a good deal of tumult reigned.Last night the people living in the southern division also assembled in great numbers, and selected delegates to the conventions which are to nominate candidates at an early dav.These sectional meetings were attended, as a rule, by Conservatives, hut the Independents and Liberals were not denied admittance, though Conservatives only addressed the audience.On Thursday night Mr.Greevway, the Leader of the Opposition, held a large political meeting at* Portage La Prairie.Much feeling was exhibited at this gathering, and the Government and Mr.Nobqvay came in fur some very sharp criticism.The Premier had been invited to this assembly by Mr.Gbxsxway but declined going, alleging as his excuse pressure of business.It is said there is a split in the Liberal party already, .though no authorative statement to that effect has been made yet.The Free Prea, the Oppoaition\u2019s organ, however, is determined that the campaign shall be fought on party issues.Mr.Grebxway, on the other hand, wishes to go to the country unshackled by party lines and traditions.He wants no cry but the popular one which men of any shade of politics may support without changing their especial political coloring.Before the elections come off these differences, it is thought, will be reconciled.The day is not yet fixed for the elections, but it is said in some usually well-informed circles that they will be held just before Christmas.The Government will begin holding meetings of its own early next week, in various parts of the country.The first one will be held at Selkirk.As far as known the candidates will likely be In St.Clements, Capt.Allax, Conservative, who will oppose David Glass, Q.C.Liberal) ; in Marquette, ¦ Robert Wkmysw (Reformed, late of Toronto, will uu.Mr.Ryan t,Liberal) will contest a French constituency, if not Minnedosa J.O.Ewart, (Reformer) will also run, and in Rockwood the candidates are J.T.Aiiuns and S.J.Jackson, the latter being the Reform nominee.Dr.Wilson will find himself opposed in North Dufferin by Henry Landerkin, while in South Dufferin Mr.Wixram will again be the candidate.The tickets will probably be formed before long.Meanwhile, we find this expression of opinion on the question, in the columns he Commercial, which is said to be a non THE WORLD\u2019S SHIPPING.The St.John Telegraph has been examining the last volumes of Bureau Pert-(as, and presents its readers with some valuable statistics from this standard authority on the shipping of the world British shipping is still far ahead of that of any other nation on the globe.Britannia continues to hold her position as mistress of the seas.The tonnage of steam vessels afloat is nearly two thirds of the tonnage of sailing vessels.In

Negotiations.MR.SENEGAL AND HIS MOVEMENTS.The following appears in the Globe :\u2014New York, Nov.15.\u2014(Special) \u2014The Timex says L.A.Senecal, President of the North Shore Railway-and Richelieu Navigation Company, of Canada, is here : also several gentlemen Çrominent iu the management of tho Grand rank and Canada Pacific Railways.Mr.Senecal recently returned from his European trip with J.A.Chapleau, Canadian Secretary of State.The party arc here as a committee to receive their friends on their return from Europe.To railroad men the visit of the Canadian capitalists has a further significance and a different purpose.It is asserted the object of the visit is to secure t e uonsolida-tion of conflicting interests by tho purchase of the North Shore Railway and the Richelieu Navigation Company by a Canada Pacific and Grand Trunk Syndicate.Mr.Senecal last evening informed a reporter that the pur chase irnot yet consummated, and might not be, certainly not unless his*teruis are acceded to.He is tho largest owner and represents a syndicate controlling both routes.If tho purchase is not effected, he states the purpose of the syndicate he represents is to complete a section of track eight miles in length and extend the road 300 miles west from Montreal, thus opening up a complete competitive line through desirable territory in Canada and extending westward from Quebec.Mr.Senecal represents the syndicate which arranged to put this scheme through.The only thing to interfere with this plan, which will open up a new route to Europe, is the sale of both properties, the purchase of which is now under consideration by the syndicate representing the Grand Trank and Canaria Pacific roods.THE PROVINCIAL MONEY KIN-1.Under the above heading the billowing appeared in the WUnets of Thura lay :\u2014 Mr.L.A.Senecal a.rived this morning from New York, in company with Mr.and Mrs.Chopleau, Mr.Tarte, Mr.Starnes, and all the excursionists who went to meet the returning Canadians.Our representative found him, already immersed in business, at the offices of the Richelieu Navigation Com pauy.He looked very well, and gave a hearty greeting to the journalist, who at once entered into conversation regarding those points which the public would like cleared up by Mr.Senecal.As to the Provincial loan, Mr.Senecal said : \u201cIf I had placed that loan, I wouldn\u2019t make it public, 'but I can tell you that I have not placed it.It is true that I, os one of tho partners, bought the $1,500,000 of the Gov ernment loan, the Government getting dollar for dollar, and I have also got $820,000 of the former loan.I know now the state of the market in New York, Paris, and London, and can place the loan at any time if I wish Just now I could most likely sell it at 5 per cent premium, but perhaps we shall keep it in our own hands.\u201d \u201cAnd about the North Shore Railway, Mr.Senecal ; have you disposed of that \u201cNo, it is not dispose! of ; bat I am in a position to get rid of it when I like.Of course I cannot tell you the terms of .the offers made for it.\u201d \u201cBut was your visit to Paris for the object of looking after the loan on the railway ?\" \u201cWell, my journey was not principally to Paris, for only a small part of my business is done there compared with what I do in London.And my object was not connected with

$1,500,000 at three per cent, Mr.Senecal spoke very contemptuously of the financial wisdom of any who would believe such a thing.The conversation also turned on the cently issued, attacking Messrs Senecal and others, and Mr.Senecal said that such an attack was not worth Mr.Chapleau\u2019s notice ; he was far, far above such a thing, and the men who wrote it\u2014they had never done anything for the Province except to live upon it.' .And having obtained all the information which was forthcoming, the reporter withdrew.V essels.\tTons.18,035\t5,319,872 .6,057\t2,054,685 .4,112\t1,381,203

:\u2014At the end of the station Mr Chapleau was requested to enter the la dies\u2019 waiting room.In this room, which was soon crowded to the doors, an address was read to the honorable gentleman, on behalf of the Club Cartier, welcoming him home again to bis native Province, and giving expression to the confidence the Club retained in him and to the gratitude they, in common with the whole of the Provinco, continued to bear towards him for his great services in behalf of the country.The address was accompanied with a beautiful souvenir in the shape of \u2022 photograph of the recipient, mounted in an exquisite piece of illuminated and worked white silk, the whole contained in a very rich frame.The silk mounting, the work of Mrs.Clifford, is a beautiful piece of work.The presentation was made by a deputation of the Clnb, consisting of Messrs.J.B.Ro-biliard, J.O.Pelland and J.A.A.Bernard.Mr.Chapleau, in responding to the addre^-said the satisfaction he experienced on receiv* ing such a hearty welcome home was inexpressible.The people iu America, he said, generally delighted in casting slurs on their public men, although they were the very ones who did, and were expected to, attend to the country\u2019s affairs.In England, however, he had found among her many noble monuments none more honorable to the nation than those over her politicians.Englishmen, he held, helped their politicians very materially by DEPENDING THEM IROM CALUMNY as far as they were able : and he wished Can adians would follow their example and work for nothing but the public good.This would tone down the strong party teeling, and we should have governments that would not use their power intemperately, simply to crush the minority out of existence, and oppositions that would not hinder every move pnqiosed by the Government of the country merely for the sake of hindering the Government.In this country united action is now required, pamphlet re-irs.Chapleau, The New Hotel Project.A Montreal paper having alluded to the fact that the recent visit to New York of His Worship Mayor Langelier was in connection with the project of a new hotel for Quebec, a Chronicle reporter met the Mayor last night and enquired respecting the rumor.Mr.Langelier made no secret of the affair, but stated that he had been influenced in his visit by a desire to forward the new hotel scheme.The Mayor said that there is evidently no doubt that a very 'arge proportion of the cost of the hotel may be secured in New York, and from gentlemen connected with the Pacific Railway Syndicate and North Shorcand South Eastern Railway Companies.Hearing that Mr.II illis Russell had returned to town, a reporter yesterday called upon him at the St.Louis Hotel, and made enquiries of him coucerning his project for the new hotel.Mr.Russell stated that he had received a telegram from Mr.Clpment in Boston, yesterday morning, stating that he was prepared to meet n him j in Boston concerning the cost of the hotel, along with Mr.Wood,architect.Mr.Russell has made a reply that he will endeavor to leave Quebec for Boston on or al>out Tuesday next.Mr.Senecal and Quebec It appears that the projected sale of the North Shore Railway to the Canada Pacific Railway Syndicate having apparently fallen through for the present, Mr.Senecal is about to turn his attention to certain industrial and other enterprises calculated to add value to the lino by developing trade.With this object in view it is said that the Railway King will return to Europe and form there a company with a capital of $10,000,000 for the avowed purpose of constructing immense grain elevators and grist mills near the terminus of the North Shore Railway iu this city.Mr.Senecal is expected to arrive here today.The Murray Bay Ferry Scheme.A special telegram received by us last night from Mr.Simon X.Cimon, M.P., states that the steamer \u201cFulger\u201d will arrive in this port on Tuesday to go down to Malbaie as a winter ferry boat.The

OR A LESSON TO FATHERS, by F.An*teen my aim, so far as I could make it consisteut with my views, to remain on friendly terms with all my colleagues in the Council.I am more than rewarded by the favorable appreciation accorded my efforts.After receipt of the unanimous resolution of the Council, and of your letter urging me tb reconsider my decision, I have come to the conclusion, that I cannot in fairness to yourself and those whom I induced to enter the Council with me, with the view of improving the city\u2019s condition, leave to them alone the task I had undertaken with them.In accordance with your request, I therefore withdraw the resignation which I had previously placed in your hands.Your obedient servant, J.B.Charleson.A letter was read from the Chief of the Fire Brigade complaining that attacks were made upon his department in the press.Presented, a petition from one John Flanagan, asking to be relieved from payment of his jieraoual tax and also to have returned him the taxes paid him for ten years past, on the ground that he is SI years of age and cannot afford to pay it out of his limited earnings.The Mayor submitted a list of answeis prepared by the City Attorney, to interrogatories put by Counsel for Quebec Skating Club to the City Council, in tho matter of its claim against the city for some $200 for use of the Skating Rink to barrack the active militia called out daring the riots of a year or two ago.The interrogatories were all adopted.DRAINING OF MAPLE AVENUE.The report of the Water Works Committee to allow residents of Maple Avenue to drain into the city drain pipes camo up as an order of the day.Alderman Hearn said while glad to oblige good neighbors, he thought it unfair to residents of the city to charge the same rates paid by themselves to those who went beyond the city to escape taxation, particularly as they took good care to advertise that their properties outside were valued for purposes of municipal taxation, exceptionally low.He thought if they were charged six per cent on tho cost of connecting their properties with city drainage, it would not really amount to more than the three cents paid by citizens.Councillor Peachy, Chairman of Water Works Committee, said the Committee had not considered tho matter in this light and asked to have the report referred back.^ Councillor Vallec thought the Council should not refuse the three cents.Councillor Johnston said he hoped the Committee would reconsider the matter and ascertain what revenue would be derived from this source by the Corporation Alderman Hearn said the proper manner of ascertaining the value of drainage to properties was to consider what it would cost proprietors to drain their properties themselves He asked what it would cost proprietors on Maple Avenue to drain their properties into the St.Charles.The matter was referred back to \\\\ atcr Works Committee.THE SECOND PIPE QUESTION.Councillor Me William asked what was being done with a view to improve the water-supply of the city.It was necessary that something should be attempted, as the companies had raised insurance rates in many instances 50 per cent.\t\u201e\t, Councillor Peachy said the Councd had appointed a special engineer to report on the subject.That gentleman had gone to lurette and visited the present pipe and source of supply.He was in possession of all docu rnents, etc., in the matter and a report from him was shortly expected.Until this was obtained, the Council could take no action The Mayor said he had been asked by a prominent insurance man, if it were true that the Council had possessed the power since last year to borrow money tor the con struction of a second water-pipe, as such tm presiion prevailed very extensively.He (the Mayor) hail informed him that it was only on the 27th May last (188,.) that the Coloration had obtained legislative authority to issue debentures for a new supply-pipe.He did not see how the Council could so far have been charged with dereliction of duty in the matter.As business men they must just fiee where the money was to be ob* tained as well as the manner in which it was to be expended.They had appointed an engineer to report on the matter, and bad be-fore them proposals to buy the whole water works system of the city up for consideration the ^\t;1\t^ to

Journal., During the last five years one more article of attire has become indispensable in a well-appointed wardrobe\u2014the tea-gown.Some months ago there was an exhibition of ladies' hygienic clothing.Foremost among this should have been the tea-gown.We would draw the attention of those who lecture for the National Health Society on clothing, dress and deformities, to this garment.The custom now is among ladies of \"ton\" to wear tea-gown, which, it may be explained for the uninitiated, is nothing more than an elegant form of dressing-gown, the whole afternoon, and even when en famille to dine in it.As its use usually enables the wearer to dispense with the corset, the hygienic value of tho tea-gown |ia apparent.It has been stated that some ladies wear corsets even beneath the tea-gown, but they are in a small minority.If the tea-gown be thfi pioneer of other garments which may expunge corsets from the list of ladies' clothing it should indeed be welcomed.This, however, is uulikc-.Still the wearing of it is a fashion which may be hoped for the sake of those who follow it may be more than a passing fancy.Halifax Company.\t\t1787 Tons.Intel.\tdo\t\t 793\t\u201c

Never Wash Their Faces\u2014Care of the Hands, Eyes, Lips, and Mouths.Where is the woman who would not be beautiful ?If such there be\u2014but no.she does not exist.From that memorable day when the Queen of Sheba made a formal call on the late lamented King Solomon until the recent advent of the Jersey Lily, the power of beauty has controlled the fate of dynasties and the lives of mcu.How to be beautiful, and consequently powerful, is a question of far greater importance to the femmiue mind than predestination or any other abstract subject if women are to govern, control, manage, influence, and retain the adoration of husbands, fathers, brothers, lovers, or even cousins, they must look their prettiest at all times.\t.\t, .All women cannot have good features, but they can look well, and it is possible to a great extent to correct deformity and develop much of the figure.The first step to good looks is good health, and the first element of health is cleanliness.Keep clean\u2014wash freely, bathe regularly.All the skin wants is leave to act, and it takes care of itself.In the matter of baths we do not strongly advocate a plunge in ice-cold water ; it takes a woman with some of the clear-grit that Robert Collyer loves to dilate on.and a strong constitution to endure it.If a hot batb be used, let it come before retiring, as there is less danger of taking cold afterward ; and, betides, the body is weakened by the ablution and needs immediate rest.It is well to nse a flesh brush, and afterwards rinse off the soapsuds by briskly rubbing the body with a pair of coarse toilet gloves.The most important part of a bath is the drying.Every part of the body should be rubbed to a glowing redness, using a coarse crash towel at the finish.If sufficient friction cannot be given, a small amount of bay rum applied with the Elm of the hand will be found efficacious.idies who have ample leisure and who lead methodical lives take a plunge or sponge bath three times a week, and a vapour or sun bath every day.To facilitate this very beneficial practice a south or east apartment is desirable.The lady denudes herself, takes a scat near the window, and takes in the warm rays of the sun.The effect is both beneficial and delightful.If, however, she is of a restless disposition, she may dance, instead of basking, in the sunlight.Or, if she is not fond of dancing, she may improve the shining hours by taking down her hair and brushing it, using sulphur water, pulverized borax, dissolved in alcohol, or some similar dressing.It would be surprising to many ladies to see her carefully wiping the separate locks ou a clean white towel uutil the dust of the previous day is eutirely removed.With such care is is not necessary to wash the head, and the hair under this treatment is invariably good.One of the moat useful articles of the toilet is a bottle of ammonia, and any lady who has once learned its value will never be without it.A few drops in the water takes the place of the usual amount of soap, and cleans out the porea of the skin as well as a bleach will do.Wash the face with a fresh brush, and rub the Ups well to tone their colour.It is well to bathe the eyes before putting in the spirits, and if it is desirable to increase their brightness this may be done by dashing soap suds into them.Always rub the eyes, in washing, toward tho nose.If the eyebrows are inclined to spread irregularly pinch the hairs together where thickest.If they show a tendency to meet, the contact may be avoided by pulUng oat the hairs every morning before the toilet.The dash of orientalism in costume and lace now turns a lady\u2019s attention to her eyelashes, which are worthless if not long and drooping.Indeed, so prevalent is the desire for this beautiful feature that hair dressers and ladies\u2019 artists have scores oi customers under treatment for invigorating their stunted eyelashes «and eyebrows.To obtain these fringed curtains, anoint the roots with a balsam made of two drachms of nitric oxide of mercury mixed with one of leaf lard.After an application wash the roots with a camel hair brush dipped in warm milk.Tiny scissors are used, in which the lashes are carefully but slightly trimmed every other day.When once obtained, refrain from rubbing or even touching the lids with the finger nails.There is more beauty in a pair of well-kept eyebrows aud full, sweeping eyelashes, than people arc aware of, and a very inattractive and lustreless eye assumes new-beauty when it looks out from beneath elongated fringes.Many ladies have a habit of rubbing the corners of their eyes to remove the dust that will frequently accumulate there.Unless this operation is done with little triction it will be found that the growth of hair is very spare, and in that case it will become necessary to pencil the barren corners.Instead of patting Cologne water on the handkerchief, which has come to be considered a vulgarism among ladies of correct taste, the perfame is spent on the eyebrows and lobes of the ears.If commenced in yonth, thick lips may be reduced by compression, and thin linear ones are easily modified by suction.This draws the blood to the surface, and produces at first a temporary and, later, a permanent inflation.It is a mistaken belie! that biting the lips reddens them.The skin of the lips is very thin, rendering them extremely susceptible to organic derangement, and if the atmosphere does not cause chaps or parchment, the result of such harsh treatment will develop into swelling or the formation of scars.Above all things, keep a sweet breath.Everybody cannot have beautiful hands, but there is no plausible reason for thei* being ill-kept.Red hands may be overcome by soaking the hands in hot water as often as possible.If the skin is hard and dry, use tar or oatmeal soap, saturate them with glycerine, and wear gloves in bed.Never bathe them in hot water, and wash no oftener than is necessary.There are dozens of woman with soft, white hands who do not put them in water once a month.Rubber gloves are worn in making the toilet, and they are cared for by an ointment of glycerine and rubbed dry with chamois skin or cotton flannel.The same treatment is not unfrequentiy applied to the face with the most successful results.If such methods are used, it would bo just as well to keep the knowledge of it from the geutlemeu.We know of one beautiful Wabash avenue lady who has not washed her face for three years, yet it is always clean, rosy, sweet, aud kissable.With some of her other secrets, she gave it to her lover for safe-keeping.Unfortunately, it proved to be her last gift to that gentleman, who declared in a subsequent not tuat \u201cI cannot reconcile my heart and my manhood.to a woman who can get along without washing her face.\u201d robe of pale grey-blue satin.The centre of the front breadth is laid in fine plaits, lined with terra-cotta satin, and confined

forms each side, the ceutre being a scarf of point duchesse about twenty inches wide.The sides are gracefully draped, ami from the belt the front and sides of the crepe and lace are fastened in a

all that drapery ?\u201d is what she very sensibly says.She is very good to her young friends, as she calls the aspirants for public favour who have not yet made their lortunes, and instead of using her wardrobe by making changes in trimmings, as many professional stars are in the habit of doing she gives them to these proUi/ej after wearing them a few times herself.She fond of pretty dresses, and likes to obtain the latest novelties.She has managed to coax the great designers to give her, in advance of the season, the new colours and styles in her outfits this year, aud some of her dresses for private wear are novelties that have been worn only at the Castle, before a favoured few, prior to her trip to this country.One was worn at the serauade given her iu Paris just before her departure.It is A SHORT DRESS, the pointed waist, high hip paniers, and black drapery being made of moire, which changes from peach blossom to silver, and the front and sides of the skirt being of

entire front of the skirt being covered with two deep flounces of silver tissue, embroidered with white pearl and crystal, edged with a fringe of coral branched strands, which is also blended in the

brocade, with a shoulder puff for eleevea, and a small red flower embroidered on the lace, matching the skirt with which the front is trimmed.It tapers to the point, on the left side of which is a spray of roses.A noc«E ROBE.Thodnwafur ttw wcoud scene w a house The beauty of Miss Jennie Chamberlain tho young American lady, the Rose of the West, as she is called in England, still conti nues to call forth a more than ordinary amount of British admiration and enthn siasm.It is even said that on the occasion ot her entering one of the royal palaces the guards saluted her, which was interpreted as a tribute to her beauty, and not to the fact of her being there as a guest of one of the royal family.A very large and elegant lun chcon was given for her some little time since by Lord and Lady Alfred Paget at their place in Derbyshire.Among the guests were Lord and Lady Randolph Churchill, Mrs.Mont gomery, Mrs.Arthur Paget, Col.and Mrs Hartley, and other notabilities.Literary Note».The issue of the December (Christmas) number of $(\u2022 A'iWtolus will be delayed until the first of December, owing to the largely increased edition and the extra work on the frontispiece, which is to be printed in seven colors.The Christmas St.Nicholas is always the greatest issue of the year, and the editors are said to have outdone themselves this season in Christmas stories, pictures, poems, carols, &c.It is to have a story, \u201cGrandmamma\u2019s Pearls,\u201d by Miss Alcott, part of a serial story by J.T.Trowbridge, one of Mr.Stockton\u2019s bist fairy stories, a beautifully

for his posthumous novel, \u201cDr.Grimshaw\u2019s Secret.\u201d It is said that these notes constitute probably the most intimate and most interesting revelation yet made, not merely of Hawthorne s method of composition, but of the principles kept in view by him in constructing his romances.MOTHER GOOSE.) (Messrs.Houghton, Mifflin k Co., of Boston, have just brought out a new and revised edition of that capital Christinas book.Mother Goose for Grown Folks, by Mrs.H.D.T.Whitney.The old-fashioned rhymes of our childhood are printed iu this little volume, just as they were when they first appeared to delight the world, but Mrs.Whitney adds to them, in graceful verses of her own, a charming interpretation of their hidden meaning.Fancy a poetical key to Mother Goose ! But no one must read it as a study.It is too delightful for that.Any one may read it, however, for its freshness, humor, delicacy and cleverness, it ought to gain a wide circle ot uew friends in its pretty holiday dress.\u2014Dawson's, The New Profession.(To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.)

It is impossible to recall or define the charm which breathed through the Deao\u2019s annual sermons to children on Innocents\u2019 Day.cannot be explained or imitated.It depend ed in no small degree npon the place and the man.The darkening December afternoon the chandeliers simply wreathed with masses of ivy, the dim religious light of the choir, the beautiful shining faces of hundreds of little children, boys and girls, from the schoolboy home for his holidays to the child in the nursery ; the simple and appropriate music, the brevity of the servipe and sermon, the gentle voice and loving manner and homely words of the speaker, made np a scene never to be forgotten, never to be reproduced.Childless himself, the Dean loved children with an almost pathetic tenderness, audit was delightful to witness his manner when he was speaking to them or conducting a few of them over the Abbey.He was fond of quoting the quaint remarks which little boys and little girls had sometimes made to him.Nor did he at all feel that he was condescending when he addressed to them such simple words as these :\u2014 \u2018.Love honest work.Love to get knowledge.Never forget to say your prayers morning and evening Never be ashamed to say them.It will help you to be good all through the day.Always keep your promises.Do not pick up foolish or improper stories.Never tell a he.Be very kind to poor dumb animals.Remember always to be gentle and attentive to older people.\u201d On one occasion he spoke to them of \"the Children\u2019s Psalms,\u201d on another of \u201cthe Children\u2019s Creed.\u201d In 1878 he delighted the little ones with the story of St.Christopher, told as only he could tell it.\u2019\u2019Iu 1877 he preached about sick children, and illustrated hia sermon by the Heir of Redclyffe ; and by the different effects which a club-foot had produced on the rainda of Byron aud of Sir Walter Scott ; aud by Wordaworth\u2019a \u201cWe are Seven,\u201d and Moultries\u2019a \u201cThree Sons.\u201d He was sure to introduce into these Innocents\u2019 Day serious any recent event aud anecdote which would interest his juvenile listeners, In 1875 it was the heroism displayed by little Billy Button at the burning of the \u2018Goliath.\u2019 In 1876, it was the courage of a modest little fellow named Hammoml Parker iu saving four drowning comrades oa board the \u201cEx-moutti.\u201d In one sermon he told how he had come into possession of an old tattered grammar, which had belonged to Adam Sedgwick when he was a little boy, and how the boy\u2019s hand had written on the first page the lines : Still in the right hand carry gentle peace To silence curious tongues.Be just aud fear not.Can only one who was present ever forget the broken voice and streaming tears with which he told the story of two little Scotch boys\u2014 Reuben and Sandio ?The story was as follows : On a cold winter day & gentleman in Edinburgh had, out of pity, bought a box of matches of a poor little shivering boy, aud, as he bad no pence, had given him a shilling, of which tho change was to be brought to his hotel.Hours passed by, and the boy did not return.Very late in the evening a mere child came to the hotel, \u201cAre you the gentleman that bought the matches frae Saadie ?\u201d \u201cYes.\u201d \u201cWeel then, here's fourpence out o\u2019 yer shillin\u2019 ; Sandie canna come.He\u2019s very ill.A cart ran over him and knocked him down, and he lost his bonnet and his matches and yer sevenpence, and both his legs are broken, an\u2019 the doctor says he\u2019ll dee ; and that's a\u2019.\u2019 And then, putting down the four-pence on the table, the poor child burst into great sobs.\u201cSo I fed the little man,\u201d said the narrator, \u201cand I went with him to see Sandie.The two little things were living almost alone ; their father and mother were dead.Poor Sandie was lying on a bundle of shavings.He knew me as soon as I came in, and said : T got the change, sir, and was coming back, and then the cart knocked me down and both my legs were broken, and oh ! Reuby, little Reuby ! I am sure I am dying, and who will take care of you when 1 am gone?What will ye do?\u2019 I took his hand and said I would always take care of Reuby.He understood me and had just strength enough to look up as if to thank me ; the light went out of his blue eyes.\u201d Iu a moment\u2014 He lay within the light of God, Like a ba)>e upon the breast, Where the wicked ceaJe from troubling, And the weary are at rest.A glass snake, or \u201cjointer,\u201d was killed near our door yesterday morning.The snake appears to be very brittle, and astonishes one with the facility with which it breaks short off when hit.When cut up into pieces of three or four inches each piece shows the fjreateat activity for a long time together unike that of any other reptile.It is said that pieces will come together and the snake resume^ its normal condition, but we did not see this.A correspondent, writing of some of Mark Twain\u2019s peculiarities, says : One of his habits while engaged in literary work is to spoil his pens by making sketches on tho walls ami any surface he can find.He learned to draw in this desultory way.Like Thackeray he is very fond of his drawings, and like tho great satirist he is a poor artist.He astonished his wife's relatives a long time by some of his peculiar antics\u2014well, such as playing billiards for hours by himself, giving himself all sorts of tasks and making various experiments.Altogether he is a queer man\u2014is queer-looking, writes queer stuff, and acts queer.Why allow a cougft to acerate your t roat and Inng-i ?Why incur the imminent danger of consumption, when in an incredibly short space of time, and for an insignificant sum.>mi may cure yourself ?Thomas' EcLKcriuo Oil does the business thoroughly.A single bottle often Buffets to relieve the dilficuUy.This peerle-is remedy overcomes with eipial certainty, swelling of the neck, inflammation of the muscles and stiffness of the joints, lameness and crick in the back, tumors, pile , dysentery and a variety of other painful and harrassing disorders.It may he taken inwardly with us much safety as it is applied outwardly.Colic, whether of man or boost, is cured by it in fifteen or twenty minutes.Sores, excoriations and abrasions of the skin, are healed by it with gratifying rapidity.All melicine dealers sell Prepared only by NORTHROP k LYMAN, T oronto, l nt.October 17.H82.\tr.fnh3-.Tm-ilftw J.F.DORNEY HAS BE2H APPOIHTED S0L3 AGENT -FOR THE \u2014 SALE AND DELIVERY OF TUB WORK PICTURiESQUE CAftADA\" IN QUEBEC AND NEIGHBORHOOD.Office: 14, St.JoscpSi Street, C?TJ233EBrE:0.September 29, 1832\tfri&tuc Cm July 14.18.V2 For Infants & Invalid*^ U fte * ra*nT< far it»* ('tBadtaa\t, Ml by Diiguu i&t.agbout tha D*-l ni«iri« I* cana al » eu.KreryetafeM \u2022 orronMd t «arics (Be alfRMwe s4 WOUIJUCU » CO.M .
