Morning chronicle and commercial and shipping gazette
Sous un titre qui a varié (Morning Chronicle, Quebec Morning Chronicle, Quebec Chronicle), un journal de langue anglaise publié à Québec qui met notamment l'accent sur l'actualité commerciale et maritime. [...]
Fondé en 1847 par Robert Middleton et Charles Saint-Michel, ce journal est d'abord connu sous le nom de Morning Chronicle. Son programme éditorial est tourné vers les intérêts britanniques, ce qui plaît aux conservateurs et aux impérialistes. Toutefois, cela n'en fait pas une publication politique pour autant puisque l'on y évite les longs éditoriaux et les sujets polémiques, probablement pour se différencier du Quebec Gazette, ancien employeur de Middleton et féroce concurrent. Le contenu est plutôt centré sur l'actualité (majoritairement en provenance d'autres journaux anglais et américains), sur la vie commerciale et maritime, ainsi que sur la littérature (peu présente pendant les premières années). La ligne éditoriale du journal est définie comme suit : « [.] in the management of The Morning Chronicle we shall, therefore, begin by simply declaring, that, as we glory in our connexion with the British Empire, it will be our undeviating aim and unremitting endeavour, to create and foster a cordial attachment to those time-honoured institutions which have made her so illustrious in the annals of the world ». (May 18, 1847, p. 2)

[Traduction]
« [...] la direction de The Morning Chronicle, par conséquent, débute en déclarant simplement que, comme nous sommes très fiers de notre relation avec l'Empire Britannique, notre but sera sans détour de créer et d'entretenir un attachement aux honorables institutions britanniques, qui se sont grandement illustrées à travers l'histoire mondiale ». Sous Charles Saint-Michel (1849-1860), le journal devient le porte-parole des aspirations de la bourgeoisie commerciale anglaise et les sujets politiques prennent une part plus importante. L'esprit protectionniste, rattaché au torysme, teinte la rédaction. Durant la période de la Confédération, le Morning est utilisé comme tribune pour faire la promotion des idées de John A. Macdonald. Toutefois, l'attrait premier du journal reste avant tout la vie relative au commerce. En 1874, une fusion avec The Quebec Gazette met fin à une concurrence jugée ruineuse. Fondé en juin 1764, c'est l'un des plus vieux journaux d'Amérique du Nord. Une nouvelle entente survient en 1924. Pour mettre fin à une concurrence qui les affaiblit, le journal alors connu sous le nom de Quebec Chronicle and Quebec Gazette et le Quebec Daily Telegraph (fondé en 1875 par James Carrel, il défend les idées populaires et est reconnu comme étant libéral) s'associent et deviennent le Chronicle Telegraph. Les nouvelles prennent une place prépondérante dans les colonnes de la « nouvelle » publication. À partir de 1934, le journal est connu sous le nom The Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. Il paraît toujours aujourd'hui. Voici les différents titres que le Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph a connus depuis ses débuts : Disponibles en ligne : The Morning Chronicle (Jan. 1847 - Nov. 1850) The Morning Chronicle and Commercial and Shipping, 1850-1888 The Morning Chronicle (Feb. 1888 - May 1888) The Quebec Morning Chronicle, 1888-1898 The Quebec Chronicle, 1898-1924 Non disponible en ligne : The Chronicle Telegraph (1925-1934) The Québec Chronicle-Telegraph (1934 à ce jour)

Ottawa, April 10\u2014The Speaker took the chair at 3 p.m.Mr.Hull presented the report of tho select committee on geological surveys.The House went into Committee ot the Whole on the following -\tu n i resolution:\u2014That it is expedient to amend ment of the company a operations «hall be .The Liquor License Act, 1383,\u2019\u2019 in several .submitted ^\tTAnjt&mblv.\t1\t.\t\u2019\t./\t.i.THR LOTTERY BILL.Heretofore we have contented ourselves with a general condemnation of the Lot tery Bill, now before Parliament.Wo feel that we aro simply leading a forlorn hspo.The bill is sure to p^ss the Lower House.Members of Parliament who should place a higher value on their honor^ have openly pledged their support to d.he measure, and we fear that it will pass the third reading by a very large majority This iswnost unfortunate.It is disgrace\" ful that the Legislature of this Province should be outraged in this manner, and that a whole community should be put to shame by a disgraceful act, an act aliko repugnant to morality and ail feelings of decency.The public must watch the vote aniexamine the division list when it appears.We hope that, at least, no mera\" bar of the Government will be found voting for ^teries.Last year, we regret lo say, when a similar bill was carried through the House of Assembly, two or three members of the Cabinet voted to m iSte a grossly immoral and illegal measure a public law on our statute book.This year we hope not to witness a repetition of such conduct.The country expects better things of the men who have been honored by tho people, and placed in responsible positions over them.Too bill itself is a wonderful scheme.It provides for the organization of a most gigantic system of lottery holding.The price of the tickets must not be less than one dollar each nor m >re than ten dollars each, and no drawing shall bo for less than $30,000 nor more than one million of dol-la:s.Think of this, and remember that this curse, this moral blot is to be authorized for a period of fifty years ! What sort of a Province will Quebec be at the end of fifty years of lotteries.Wherever lotteries aro in operation the morality of the people is low, vice triumphs, and the whole community is given over to a vicious systom of catch-penny existence.Such places seem to be forsaken by God and hmist men.Is Quebec to drift into wick-e Iness in this way Î Our readers ought to know the names of the prime movers in this scheme to pollute the fair fame of this portion of Canada.Clause 1st of the bill reads as fol-lows :\u2014\u201cThe Reverend Antoine Labelle, Benjamin Globensky, Q.C., M.P., I.Alderic Ouimet, Q.C., M.P., Adeuard L.Db Martigny, Emmanuel P.Lachapelle, M.D., Hon.Edouard Remillard, Peter S.Murphy, L.Henri Archambault and Napoiw^n Legendre are hereby constituted a body corporate under the name of the \u2018Grand National Lottery of Quebec.\u2019 \u201d This corporation may enter into agreements with an incorporated bank doing business in the Province of Quebec, to guarantee its lottery tickets as well as the payment of prizes.This is a nice business for a first-class bank to go into.Ocher sections of the bill read as fol\" lows :\u2014 4.\tOne-half the amount of the tickets of 'each drawing shall be distributed in prizes according to a scale to be determined by tho directors of the corporation ; one-fourth of such amount during the first five years and afterwards thirty per cent shall be distributed by the board>»f directors to meet the most pressing requirements in the various localities of this Province, in accordance with the objects in view, as set forth in the preamble to this act, and one-fourth during the first five years, and afterwards twenty per cent shall be expended in meeting the expenses af management, agencies and commissions.5.\tTen per cent on the amount of each prize may be retained by the corporation fur the purpose of forming a reserve fund which shall never exceed five hundred thousand dollars.Such reserve fund may be used to meet any deficit which may at any time arise in any department of the management or in the receipts of any draw-ing.ii.The corporation may grant a commis sion to its agents for the stile of its tickets, but such commission shall not, in any case, exceed fifteen per cent.7.The persons mentioned in the first \"section of this act shall be the first directors of the \u201cGrand National Lottery of Quebec,\u201d arid shall remain in office as long as no vacancy occurs in their number, either by death, resignation or inability to act ; in which case the vacancy shall be filled by the appointment of a competent person, selected by the directors remaining in office, at a meeting convened for such purpose by a notice sent to each of them at least fifteen days before the date fixed upon ; but the directors may, by bylaw, increase their number to eleven, or reduce the same to seven, as the number thereof decreases, and the appointment of the new directors shall be made in the same manner as that provided for filling vacancies ; Provided that the name of every person so selected be sent, within fifteen days of his nomination, to the provincial secretary, who shall submit it to the Lieutenant-Governor-in-Council, aûd within three months from the sending of such name by the secretary-treasurer of the corporation, the Lieutenant-Governor may veto the nomination of such director, which shall ipeo facto be void, and the said directors in office shall, in*tho same manner, proceed to appoint another director whose name \u2022hall be sent in the same manner to the Lieutenant-Governor-in-Council who, within the same delay, may again veto the no min^tion, and so on until the delay of three months provided by this act be expired, without the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council taking advantage of his right to veto, and such director shall enter into office only after the expiration of such delay of three months.The 7th clause is rich in its way.It provides for the Directors what our American neighbors aptly term \u201ca soft thing : for life.But more richness follows.The representative of the Queen and the Gov.gemment of the Province are to be entrust-\u2022d with the power to veto or approve the nomination of a Director into this precious company of benefactors.This too is a nice business for a Governor and Co^cil to be engaged in.Below are the ceucluding clauses of the measure :\u2014 3.The directors shall elect from amongst themselves, a president, a secretary and a treasurer and all other officers whose appointment shall

passed expressly to meet lottery eases.The mails cannot be used in furtherance of lotteries.No one send circulars concerning lotteries can through the post office without incurring penalties.The matter comes under criminal ofiences, and no hesitancy ought to occur in promptly stamping out the out rage on manners, morals and conduct of life.A WELL ADVERTISED STAR.Mary Andebson, the popular American star actress, is out in a new role.She is the best advertised woman in the world and has reduced the business to a fine art She is very- beautiful in i»erson, and acts exceedingly well, but her manner on the stage is sometimes artificial and cold.She is wedded to her profession, it is said, and has decided not to enter tho matrimonial state until her artistic life has spent itself.Her .name constantly figures in the papers however, and the public are inferned in skilfully worded paragraphs that at last the fair woman has consented to resign her liberty and take a husband.When it isn\u2019t a peer, it is a prince, when it is not a Duke it is a Lord Chief Justice who is to be made happy by the beautiful and charming Mary.Of course, contradiction fallows the announcement, but the \u201c Star gets the benefit of the advertisement all the same, and few of the men are annoyed at having their names coupled with that of Miss Anderson.Lord Coleridge has denied the soft impeachment in a letter, and so has another Coleridge, and we believe one of the Dukes, but the judicious Mary goes on her way, and keeps before ihe people.The following is the latest st>ry told about her in the London papers.It is characteristic, and this time we hope that it is true.Her conduct is highly ere ditable and womanly in every way :\u2014 London, April 7\u2014Miss Mary Anderson lias wound up her engagement at the Ly ceum Theatre with a row, which has, how ever, endeared her to tho hearts of all loyal Londoners.Every theatre in the city was closed last evening as a mark of mourning for Prince Leopold, whoso funeral had just taken place ; but Mr.Guy, the Lyceum manager, had advertised that his house would be opened as usual It seems, however, that when he made this announcement, he had not consulted the star, and Miss Anders-n flatly refused to be bound by the promise.It is not true, as lias been reported, that Miss An derson descended to the subterfuge of feigning indisposition.She bluntly,and positively declared that she would not ap pear.Mr.Guy was furious and made all kinds of threats.M;ss Anderson cabled to Mr.Abbey, stating Mr.Guy's demands and her refusal, with its reason Mr.Ab bey promptly cabled back that her course was entirely approved by him.Thus for tified the actress persisted in her refusal to act, and Mr.Guy now threatens an ac tion for heavy damages for her alleged breach of contract.This morning\u2019s papers contain a card from Mias Anderson, in which she explains her action and ex presses her thanks for the great popular kindness which has been extended to her throughout her London season.THE SHORTEST ROUTE TO THE SEA.The following has been forwarded to the Premier of Canada :\u2014 Quebec, 11th April, 1834, The Right Honorable Sir Johu A.Mao donald, premier, Ottawa : The citizens and commercial men of Quebec respectfully request that provision be made in the railway resolutions for a guarantee of interest or such other measure as will ensure the construction of a bridge near Quebec to connebt the Pacific with the Intercolonial, and, if it is considered indispensable that a short line be built through the State of Maine to the Maritime Provinces, it is earnestly requested that the route sugj ested by the Board of Trade, via Quebec and Wood-stock, be thoroughly examined before the location of the short line is determined.We respectfully deprecale the bridging of the St.Lawrence west of Montreal as tending to throw the trade of the Pacific into American ports and thus depriving the Province of Quebec and the Maritime Provinces of its benefits.F.Langeliek, Mayor of Quebec.Joseph Shehyn, President of the Quebec Board of Trade.respects, and especially as to the time for applying for and taking out licenses, as to the appointment of commissioners, and as to the legal proceedings enacted and the penalties imposed by ihe act, and by providing that any deficiency in the license fund in respect of expenses may be made x»d out of moneys voted by Parliament lor tho purpose.In committee, Sir John donald briefly explained tho nature of the amendments.Tho resolution was reported and Sir John Macdonald introduced bill to amend the Liquor License Act, 1883, which was read a first time.On.motion of Sir John Macdonald the House went into committee and reported a resolution to provide for the salary of an additional Puisne Judge of the Queen's Bunch in the Province of Quebec.Sir Charles Tapper, iu moving that the House go into committee on the resolution to grant subsidies to certain railways, said that all countries recognized theconstruction of railways os one of the greitest and most important means of promoting the advancement and progress of a country, and he did nut say that Canada was not behind the rest of the world in that regard.In fact in no part of the world w is this principle momM thoroughly recognized than it had been in Canada.The very great efforts, he might say the unequalled efforts, that had been made in Canada within the past few years to span this continent from ocean to ocean would compare favorably with any other efforts that had ever been made for the developement or advancement of any country.The Province of British Columbia had not been neglected.They had not only provided for the rapid completion of our great international work, the Canadian Pacific Railway, to Port Moody, on Bur-rard Inlet, but they had during tho present session provided for a railway from Nanaimo down to the harbor of Victoria, thus providing very fully for the development of that section of the Dominion.He need only remind Parliament that the great North-West, which was yesterday as it were but a trackless desert, was now making rapid strides in developement, which had beeq, greatly aided by the Government, iu not only completing the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway but also iu aiding tho constructioil of branches, j which would give to our great ) international line a constant source | of revenue, and a resolution was now sub- ] mitted by the Right Hnu.Leader of the j Government to promote the construction j of a line of railway to Hudson\u2019s Bay, with j a view- of obtaining an additional outlet to j the great North-West.The granting of 6,400 acres per mile to aid in the construction .of this railway in the Province of Manitoba, and 12,800 acres per mile outside of that province, was an evidenco to the world of the great importance which the Government, and when it was passed iu which Parliament, placed on giving every possible^facility to the great North-West m securing an outlet for her pro-ductinos.He then referred to the subsidies which had been already granted by Parliament to the line between Port Arthur and \"Callendar, between Callendar and Pembroke and between Callendar and Gravenhur.it, involving an expenditure in the Province of Ontario of 3-2,860,000, and then alluded to the proposed grant to the Province of Quebec contained in tho present resolutions.He felt sure that no one iu the House would question the fact, that had not tho Province of Quebec constructed the railway from Quebec to Ottawa the C.P.R.would have been regarded as entirely incomplete and Parliament would have been prepared to deal with the question providing for the expenditure in this direction.The fact that the Government of Quebec had expended from their own treasury a sum of over 14 millions of dollars, and its consideration at this late hour, instead of lessening or diminishing their claim, iu his opinion, sfrenpthened it very much, incre .aed tho strength of approval in approaching the Government as they had done and asking to be recouped and placed in somewh&kof the same position as they would have occupied had they not constructed the road at their own ax pense.This line, he said, might fairly be regarded as a portion of our great inter-oceanic line of railway, and after full and fair consideration of tho matter and of the fact that they had exhausted the resources of Quebec iu constructing this important link of our great international work the Government decided to give them $12,000 a mile for that portion of the road between Montreal and Ottawa, and which had already become a link of the Canada Pacific Railway, and as regarded the other portion from Montreal to Quebec tho only hesitation in granting $12,000 a mile to it was that the Government of Quebec had parted with that portion of the railway, and that it did not afford a free and unrestricted line of communication in order to make the harbor of Quebec,as in the interests of the country it was desirous that it should be, the summer terminus of ihe C.P.It.Under these circumstances it was thought judicious to appropriate $6,000 for that portion of the 4ine constructed by tho Government of Quebec, and to ask Parliament for an appropriation of an equal amount, for the purpose of ensuring the extension of the C.P.R.from its present terminus at Montreal to the harbour of Quebec.The amount embraced in these resolutions towards securing an international line of railway from the shores of the Pacific Ocean to Quebec and to the Maritime Provinces also included the connection between the Quebec Central Railway and the international boundary.It was proposed to ask for a subsidy for 66 miles of railway from Beauce Junction, on the QuebecCen-tral, to the International Railway, of $211,21)0, which would make the appropriation in these resolutions for the purpose of obtaining the shortest line of communication to Quebec and through Quebec to tho Maritime Provinces with tho C.P.R, proper, at Ottawa, amount to $3,5G5,-200 altogether Then a very strong feeling had grown up in the Maritime Provinces and also throughout Canada, and there had been a strong and (Continued on Third Page.) -BEING- RECEIVED WEEKLY.nsrcrw\t= ^TEW ZEPHYR PRINTS.Hoyle\u2019s celebrated Prints, fast Colours ami

(Mr.Houde\u2014It is because the grants were as they are this year, illusory.) Sir Charles Tupper said if the hon.gentleman thought that the Government asked for these subsidies for the purpose of leading people to expect that something illusory would be accomplished, then all he (Sir Charles) could say was that his hon.friend was extremely mistaken ; he for one had never done so and never would do so.There was not a dollar appropriated in any one of these years but was appropriated upon the earnest application of the parties interested.That appropriation would have a beneficial result.That this money had not been expended was a guarantee to the House and the country that tho Government would exercise great càre before paying out any of this money.He believed by giving comparatively an amount in aid of the local railways they would induce the expenditure of private * capital and private enterprise.He concluded by expressing the belief that these resolutions would not only receive the support of the great body of gentlemen behind him, who had so generously given aid and support to tho present Government, in whom they had the utmost confidence and upon whom they knew they might roly, to treat these questions in the best interests of the country, but he might also confidently rely on a large portion if not the whole body of hon gentlemen opposite, who were as deeply interested as those on the Government side of tho House, and he hoped they would not the less be ready to jtro-moto the best interests and development of this country.(Loud cheers.; The House then went into Committee on the resolutions.At six o\u2019clock the House rose for recess.After recess, the House in Committee on Sir Charles Tupper s resolutions regarding the railway subsidies, on item of $211,200 to the Quebec Central Railway, Hon.Mr.Blake complain ed that there was no information submitted to Parliament as to the standing of the company, of which he would say nothing because he knew nothing.Sir Charles Tupper said this subsidy was only proposed on-a general knowledge of the ability of the companies to carry out the undertakings, but not a single dollar by way of subvention would be paid out to these enterprises until the Government had fully satisfied itself of bona Jide of the companies and their stability.It did not follow that because the Government was given power to make arrangements of this description that they would inevitably, under any and all circumstances, make these arrangements.Mr.Hall would inform the hon.gentleman (Hon.Mr.Blake) that that company was by no means unknown and insignificant but on the contrary were successiul opera tors of a paying line.The item passed.$ir Charlei moved to amend the next item so as to read as follows :\u2014\u201cFor the extension of the Canadian Pacific Railway from its terminus at St.Martin a Junction near Montreal, on some other point on the 0.P.R., to the harbor of Quebec, in such manner as may be approved by the Gov-ernor-in-Council, a subsidy not exceeding $6 ,000 per mile, nor exceeding in the whole $960,000.\u201d This amendment was made to enable the Government to secure the extension of the C.P.R to Quebec p?specifying no particular route a,,d leaving the matter of a definite line au opon question.Mr.Amyot complained by this it was intended to take $6,000 fiom the Province of Quebec without adding to the certainty of the C.P.R.ever reaching\t^ .«nuidaak therefore, that the sum of $960,000 be added to the first paragraph of the resolutions.The policy of the Government was rather to drive the C.P.R.across the line for a terminus rather than keep it within our own boundaries.Sir Hector Laugevin was assured that this grant for the extension of the C.P.R- «as directlv in the in-te sts of Quebec, and for the benefit of the Dominion at large.It was the inten-tion of the Government to make Quebec the summer terminus of the C.1*.R.and St.John, II.tlira\\ and Louisburg, the winter terminus.To judge by the utterances of its President, it was tho intention «>f the C.P.R.to extend to Quebec and he believed negotiations to that effect were going on now, and if hw (Mr.Ainyot) would only wait till the bill was brought in he would find it would deal with all these matters.The Government was certain the railway would go to Quebec ; therefore it asked the House to assist in perfecting this measure.$12,000 per mile were being given to the Province for the line between Ottawa and Montreal and the same amount it was proposed to give for the part of the line between Montreal - and Quebec, only that $6,000 per mile of the proposed grant was to be retained as a subvention to secure the extension of the C.P.R.to Quebec.Mr.Ouimet was glad to hear that the object of this grant was the ex tension of the C.P.R.to Quebec.If the .Province had a claim to $12,000 per mile for the line from Montreal to Quebec, as it had for that from Montreal to Ottawa, he would ask that instead of locking up the remaining $6,000, as was proposed in this resolution, why not capitalize the$960,000 and pay the interest of this amount to the Province I He hoped Government would consent to this.Mr.Amyot said it was all right to give the $12,000 to the Province, but taking away (practically) $6,000 a mile would create dissatisfaction.He quoted from Mr.Stephen\u2019* letter in the Montreal (Jazette, which he held showed tho company could not possibly point out the exact route of the C.P.R.to Quebec.Mr.Valin spoke in favor of the subsidy being granted.The item then passed.A number of the succeeding items were next carried without imporumt discussion.Hon.Mr.Blake complained that it was proposed to give the sum of $200,000 to secure the settlement of differences between the Grand Trunk and the Canada Pacific Railway regarding the Union Jacques Cartier Railway, which it had been so lately in the power of Parliament, when voting millions to the Canada Pacific Railway, to force such conditions on the syndicate as to obviate the necessity of further expenditure in this matter.The remaining items passed without amendment, when the Committee rose and reported.Sir John Macdonald moved that the bill in relation to the disputed territory between the Dominion mid Ontario and the bill in relation to insolvent banks, trading companies, etc, from the Senate, be now read a first time.\u2014Carried.The House affjourned at 12.45 till 3 p.m.on Saturday.NOTIOBS OK MOTIONS.Sir Leonard Tilley\u2014On Saturday next \u2014Committee of the Whole to consider the following resolutions :\u2014That it is expedient to authorize the

all the city markets last night, arranging their stalls and so disposing their meat as to allow it to be seen to-day to the best possible advantage.A Chronicle reporter visited the different markets last evening and was thus enabled to anticipate a portion of the show which will be witnessed this morning.MONTCALM MARKET.The finest show in this market is undoubtedly that made by Messrs.Tcz?r A Co., at tho )eft hand side of the easterly entrance.The choicest of prime viands is Here arranged in tbe most tempting manner.The beef is of splendid quality and color, and much admired by connoisseurs.The veal is very large tor Eastertide, one carcase, of which the weight exceeds 350 lbs., attracting special attention.There are some very choice spring iambs on view, one being so large as to average eight to ten lbs.the quarter.A splendid hogs of 600 lbs.weight occupied a place at tbe further eud of the stall.Id all, Messrs.Tozer A Co.killed for the Easter market two steers weighing 1000 lbs.each, aud fed by Mr.King, of Inverness, two heifers fed by Mr.Campbell, of the same place, and weighing eacti 600 lbs., a pair of oxen fed by Bella-vauce, of 8t.Anselme, and two heifers and four oxen fed by Messrs.Tozer A Co., at Little River, one of the latterof which weighs 1300 lbs.All the figures here given represent, of course, dead weight.This firm has also slaughtered five hogs fed by Bryce and W.Miller, of Inverness, twenty calves fed in Leeds, Inverness and St.Anselme, uud twenty-five sheep and lambs fed in Leeds, Inverness and St.Hyacinthe.Amongst those lucky enough to

Dube\u2019s Restaurant, Ac.The Messrs.Tozer have always, of course, on hand a choice lot of turkeys and chickens, also hams, bacons and tongues.Natural flowers are given away to customers, For a

dairy butter, fresh laid eggs, Ac.Mr.Tozer makes a good exhibit of beef, having killed oxen weighing 1,100 to 1,200 lbs., of which tho quality of the beef is exceptionally fine.Salt beef, lamb and veal are also in stock.Mr.Ruthman\u2019s stall presents a very savoury appearance.His hams and bacon are exceptionally choice, both smoked and sugar cured, and he offers also rolled and spiced bacon, etc., and excellent quality pork from dairy fed hogs.Mr.Martiuhaa the flesh of steers averaging about 800 lbs.each, and the carcase of a fine calf of 200 lbs., besides smaller veal weighing about 100

apples, oranges, ^bananas, parsnips, cabbage, horseradish, artichokes, Ac.Fresh laid eggs and choice print batter are of course made a specality of.CHAMPLAIN MARKET.On entering this i iarket from tbe northerly entrance one passes through immense tiers of meat on either side.On the one hand is the stall of Mr.Utlauey, on the other day that of Mr.Smith.Thos.Delaney, as natural, retains his old reputation, aud is well to tho front as u-ual.One ceases to wonder where all the gooff things piled around this stall came from on being told that Mr.Delaney slaughtered for this market 20 fat steers aud heifers, 30 sheep of tbe best quality, and 20 calves.Some of the latter use magnificent tsree of the largest weighing on an average 418 lbs.Some of the heifers fed by him at Little Kiver Road on his own farm are as fine s any seen here for years past.It is said that some of the oxen of which carcases are exhibited weighed 2,800 lbs.The lamb is also really prime, and Mr Delaney keeps likewise in stock tongues, salt beef etc., etc.The moat ill this stall was dressed by Mr.Dooley.Mt.Smith has slaughtered for the Easter market fifteen extra fat cattle, principally raised and fed in luverness,

Frederick Langbridge.Children\u2019s Raster Fashions.(Special Cable Letter to the HorW.) London, April 8\u2014A revolt against Parnell is being organized by the more active of the ultra Irish Nationalists.Tne originator of the new departure is Mr.James Stephens, the vtnetablc cx-ilea l Centre of the l* enian Brotherhood and who came out of that enterprise with bands at leoct as clean and fame as us untarnished as any of its leaders.He has been living very quietly in Paris for the past few years and has taken no active part in Irish affairs, although the English detectives in Paris have seen tit to watch his movements very closely since the explosion at Victoria Stat:ou.Mr.Stephens now proposes to organize an entirely new Irish party, which will be opposed equally to the doctrines of the Parnellites on the one hand, and to the methods of the dynamiters on the other, and hopes to secure the co-(f|jeration of the best men in both those fact*ons.He intends to call a council of Irish nationalists to meet at Paris during the present mouth to formulate a plat form and decide upon the methods of organiza tion and subsequent operations.Among those whom he will invite to this conference will be Gen.Macadaras, Johu O\u2019Leary, John Savage and Sir Charles Gavan Duffy.Mr.Stephens has also been recently in corres poutience with some of the Irish leaders in the United States, and is said to have received pledges of the adhesion of several influential Insh-American societies.Iu order to learn more about the new departure from the venerable agitator himself, a World correspondent to-day called upon Mr.Stephens at his Paris residence, and obtained an interview.Being asked if it were true that ho was determined to lead a new cam paign for Ireland, he replied : \u201cYes, and I feel that I have been too long inactive.I have acted upon the principle \u2018old men for counsel, young men for action,\u2019 and have confined myself to advising my fellow-countrymen whenever they have sought me out for consultation.But the young men, who should be fighting Ireland\u2019s battles aggres sively and ceaselessly, are, os it seems to me, either too slow and timorous, or, on the other hand, fatally reckless in their methods.Between them they are accomplishing nothing.A new departure is imperatively needed, and, as I have some skill and experience as an organizer, my friends have thought that I ought again to buckle on the armor and take the lead in this direction, aud I have consented to do so.\u201d\t.\u201cCould not the same result be accomplished by strengthening the hands of the existing organizations ?\u201d \"It could not, tor the reason that they are antagonistic.They neutralize each other.What ia needed is a new party with a platform broad enough to admit the strongest men in all existing organ-zations, and a concentration of all efforts for Ireland through the machinery of this new party which will be irresistible.\u2019\u2019 \u201cWhat is your objection to Parnelhsm ?\u201cParnelUam chooses a wrong field for the engagement.The battle for Irish freedom is rot to be fought in St.Stephen\u2019».Neither the present Parliament, nor any Parliament ihat is likely to succeed it, will do justice to Ireland.Tne present Liberal administration might grant some measures of half-way justice if it had the power, but it has not yet done so, and its days are now numbered.Then, if the Tories succeed to power, the Irish cause in Parliament would be indeed hopeless.But even if the Liberals should again carry the general election, what pledge is there that they will do any more for Deland than they have done in the past four years of their administration ?\u201d \u2022 \u201cBut Mr.Parnell seems to have the confidence of the Irish people.Why not continue his leadership ?\u201d \u201cBecause sterner methods than his are needed.Besides, Mr.Parnell is not so implicitly trusted iu his own party as you believe.There are serious defections among his followers.Some of the ablest of them are iu favor of the new departure now proposed.They complain that he is too autocratio and that it outrages their manhood to be compelled to render the degree of subserviency that he demands.They say also that in grouping for parliamentary success io^petty deta ls he loses sight of the great object for which he is pledged to fight, but which he really jeopardizes by entangling deals and alliances with the Government.\u201d PLUCKY MARY AN PERSON.Miss Mary Anderson has wound up her engagement at the Lyceum Theatre with a* ro-.v, which has, however, endeared her to the hearts of all loyal Londoners.Every theatre in the cit*r was closed last evening a mark of mourning for Prince Leo whose funeral had just taken place, but Mr.Guy, the Lyceum manager, had advertised that his house would be open as usual.It seems, however, that Mr.Guy, when he made this announcement, had not consulted the star and Miss Anderson flatly refused to be bound by his promise.It ia ?ot true, as has been reported, that Miss Anderson descended to the subterfuge of feigning indisposition.She bluntly and positively declared that she would not appear.Mr.Guy was furious and made all kinds of threats.Miss Anaerson cabled to Mr.Abbe stating Mr.Guy\u2019s demands and ber refusa .with its reason.Mr.Abbey promptly cabled back that her course was entirely approved by him.Thus fortified the actress persisted iu her refusal to act, and Mr.' Guy now threatens an action for heavy damages for her alleged breach of contract.This morning\u2019s papers contain a card from Miss Anderson, in which she explains her action and expresses her thanks for the great popular kindness which has been extended to her through out her London season.DEATH OF PROF.BACHMANN.The corpse of Prof.Bachmann, of Berm.University, an eminent

Canadiau fauna, reside here during tho «ntire year, others again are summer visitants while a few visit us ouly in the «inter.Of the latter Richardson\u2019s Owl is the first in point of classification and from being a rare bird is one of tho most interesting.I examined, in the flesh, a specimen shot near St.John in August, but a* this is thetirst instanceof the occurrence of thespacies at that season I am inclined to believe their summer visits are accidental or at beat irregular, although I am aware that some excellent authorities have considered them prob.\u2019ûde residents of Northern New England.It is the smallest of our Owls, excepting the Saw-whet.THE SNOWY OWL.has also been known to occur in these lati tudes in summer, but too irregularly to be classed as a resident.Its r&nga is very extensive, reaching from the Arctic regions to the middle States.THE HAWK OWL, called so from its bearing a partial resemblance to both families, is a rare bird, and though of a somewhat irregular occurrence should be classed as a winter visitant.THE (1YR-FALCONS have not yet been defined very satiefactorily, and systematists hold stru.gly opposed views regarding the different forms that have been observed.It is, however, very generally conceded that these varieties sioit these latitudes during the winter months, and it may be that few are to be found.There is no locality within the confines of the Canadian fauna, which offers so good opportunities for the study of these birds as Quebec does, and I am strongly of the opinion that the note books of some of your close and careful, though modest, observers could furnish us with information concerning them, which would be very acceptable, for a very good ac count of them is very much needed.THE ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK is also a winter visitant.It is not common iu New Brunswick, but iu some parts of Massachusetts it is quite abundant.This species was for a long time a subject of con troversy among naturalists.It is found in two distinct phases of plumage, one a mixture of light and dark brown, the other a black or brownish blaok, and the question discussed was : are these two phases of the one species or two species ?Those who argued on the side favoring one species considered that the darker colored birds represented a melan istic phase of plumage.They are now classed as one species, but so late as '59\u2014in \u201cBaird\u2019s Report\u201d\u2014they were classed as two species, ?ainod the Rough-legged Hawk aud the Black Hawk.THE PURPLE SANDPIPER CUTE LITTLE BONNETS AND IIAiS, WITH

representative of the Waders among our winter birds.It has been found breeding in abundance along the shores ef Hudson\u2019s Bay and its nests have been taken as far north as Melville Peoiosula.It is reported as breeding in Northern Europe aud has been observed at the Cape Colony, In its more southern habitat on this continent it appears io small companies of them or four, l»t on the Bay of Fundy shores it occurs generally iu immense flocks and fly in such a compact mass that a charge of shet aimed at the centre of the flock is certain to secure a large number.I have known as many as sixty-four of these birds to be killed at one shot.SWIMMERS of the Anserine families, the \u201cOld Squaw\u201d ( and the two species of Eider Ducks are the \u2018 only distinctively winter birds, but the long-wiuged swimmers\u2014the Gulls and Terns \u2014are represented in the Bay of Fundy-Nand along the eastern coast of Nova Scotiol by several species at this season.The Ivory Gull, a very beautiful bird when in full plumage, is only met with in winter months, as is also the huge Burgomaster, the most tyrannical of the race.The white-wiug-ed Gull and the lesser white-winged, which has been but lately described, are likewise to be classod among our visitors from the far north, and the beautiful little Bonaparte\u2019s Gull must be placed in the same list ; the Jaegers properly belong here also.THE DIVERS are also well represented along our sea coast during the cold weather, for besides the residents large flocks from the boreal regions then visit us.The black-throated Diver, a cousin to our Loou, comes at this season but is so extremely rare that few naturalists have seen a specimen in the flesh.The co;i\\mon Puffin comes also but as a few breed on the islands at tho mouth of the Bay of Fundy its right to a place iu this connection may be questioned.It is an odd-looking bird, where-ever it is put.It looks like a Parrot that had lost half 6f its wing and had become paralyzed in t(ie legs.Like most of the Divers it cau do little else than dive.The Razor-billed Auk, also a winter visitor, has a bill differing somewhat from the Puffins, yet of such singular shape as to be its most attractive feature.THE SEA DOVE, the smallest of the Auks, has the most pleasing appearance of any of that family.It is about the size of a Robin.The Thrush has the advantage of the Auk in measurement, for which the rudimentary tail and short bill of the latter tells against it, when stretched on the measuring hoard, where it covers but eight inches ; the long tail and bill of the Robin allows it to be recorded as nine and a-half inches in leagth.The Sea Dove, how-ever, has a longer, stouter body than the Robiu and weighs much heavier.The plumage of this little Auk is very glossy aud bears the silky appearance which makes the Grebe\u2019s breast so suitable and attractive a decoration for a lady\u2019s hat.Above the color is a rich blue-black, while the breast is of a pearly white.Its wfogs are quite small\u2014much too small to enable the bird to carry its stout heavy body agamst a head wind\u2014so it is considerably at the mercy of the wind when it blows strongly.It is to this fact that we owe the appearance of the bird at St.John, for it only occurs here occasionally aud invariably after a protracted gale.Several of these birds have been picked up on the streets of the city in an exhausted condition.The true home of the Sea Dove is on the shores of the North Atlantic aud Arctic oceans, but it occurs in winter as far south as New Jersey, aud has been found in Florida.THE GUILLEMOTS ends tho list of our distinctively winter birds These are also of the Auk family aud differ from the Puffin and Sea Dove, principally in size aqd in the shape of the bill.The Puffin\u2019s bill is almost as long as its head and very nearly as deep, (measuring from tho top of the upper inaudible to the lower euu of the lower maudible) and is also quite flat, bearing something the appearance of a spade held on its edge by insertion iu the bird\u2019s head.The Sea Dove has a short stout bill something the shape and a little longer than a Grosbeak's, while the bills of the Guillemots are long and tapering to a point.Naturalists have but lately discovered that the Common (Guillemot is a rare bird in comparison with Brunnich\u2019s, that the two species have been somewhat \u201cmixed\u201d iu previous determinations, which is easily accounted for when it ia considered that the chief distinguishing characters are slight differences in the length aud shape of the bills.A number of these birds were offered for sale iu St.John during tho winter, but I did not send them to my own table more than once.There was a peculiar mixture of fish aud game in the flavor of the meat suggestive of broiled Fish Crow.Montague Chamberlain.St.John, N.B.F, S.\u2014I see that I have omitted to men tion the uamdfof the Great Gray Owl m its proper place.It is a winter bird, for its habitat is the extreme north, and its occurrence in these latitude is but rare, though it has been taken as far south as Connecticut With this long list of \u201cwinter birds\u201d before them our naturalists at least are quite pre pared to refute the statement that there are uo birds iu Canada iu winter.And the list is not complete yet for no mention has been made of the resident species\u2014those which occur here iu summer as well as iu winter\u2014 but the design of the present series of papers was not to cover this group for they are not distinctively \u201cwinter birds.\u201d M.C.OPENING OF THE TERM.Charge to the Grand Jury.The spring term of the Criniiual Cuurt was opened in this city on Thursday last, His Honor Mr.Justice Tcasier presiding.There was a large atteudance of (>11101018 connected with the Administration of justice, and of the general public.Messrs.Tames Dunbar, Q.C , and L.P.Pelletier, advocate, appeared for the Crown.Mr.Duggan, Clerk of the Crown, Mr.Pratten, Deputy Clerk, and Mr.Languedoc, Interpreter' occupied their respective places.There were also present Hou.K.T.Psqnet in his robe of office as Sheriff, Dr.A.G.Helloau, District Coroner.Mr.D.Murray, Clerk of the Peace.Mr.W.McLaren, Governor of the Jail, Colonel Vohl, Chief of Police, &u.l Mr.T.Gale High Constable.The court room was crowded with parties summoned jurymen aud witnesses.At the opening of th« term, after the usual proclamation, the Qaeou s Commission was read, appointing liou.E.T.Paquet, Joint Sheriff.The Grand Jury was then sworn as follows Andrew Thomson (foreman), George T, Davie, Joseph Whitehead, Robert McCready, Ed.Cauchon, John Delaney, Napoleon Lor-tie, Pierre Roy, Julien Chabot, Louis Laguenx, Alfred White, Isidore Begin, Pierre Guay, W.Pilkiugton, Joseph Gosselin.Denis O'Hare, Augustin Larochelle, Francois V erret, Joseph U.Laird, G.B.Symes Young, Alfred Larivee and James Rowley.His Honor Mr.Justice Tesoier then charged the Jury as follows.Gentlemen of the Grand Jury.\u2014You are called upon to perform an important duty in the admiuiatratiou of criminal justice.It is a custom of old that the Court submit to the Grand Jury an outline of the duties they are called upon to fulfill.For the pupose of conforming to such eus tom, I will make a few remarks.The panel for the present term contains oflenceaoPa most grievous character.The two most important are cases of murder, which, however, will not come before you.The first appears ou the roll of this Court for the second time, the Petit Jury having failed to agree upon a verdictj; this necessi tales a new trial.As to the second case, it comes up on a \u201ctrue bill\u201d found by the Grand Jury of the district of Saguenay, the Court of the latter district having ordered, by a change of venue, the trial to take place before this Court.There remains, however, several indictments, which will be laid before you.There are two cases of manslaughter, some cases of larceny, some of receiving stolen goods or moneys with a guilty knowledge, one of forgery, and a few of aggravated assault.I am convinced you will devote your most serious atteution to the examination of those cases, and that you will give this Court an impartial report of the same, in the exprès sive terms of the oath you have taken, to wit, that you will not present any one through hatred, malice or ill-will, but shall, when it is right to do so, report against any one, without fear, favor or affection, with strict justice to the accused, and to society, which you represent.It is your duty,*in every case, to minutely examine the witnesses on behalf of the Crown, so as to (letflrmine, whether the evidence produced be We you is sufficient to warrant you in sending the accused to trial before the Petit Jury.The accused has no right to produce evidence before you.He will have the privilege of so doing jiefore the Petit Jury, if called upon to stand bis trial before them.It is the duty of the foreman of tho Grand Jury to swear each witness brought up before you, aud before being examined ; and every witacs* must be examined in your presence aud apart from tho other witnesses.Twelve at least among you must concur iu the finding of a \u201ctrue bill.\" In that case the foreman of tho Grand Jury will write on the back of the indictment the words \u201ctrue bill,\u201d aod affix Ins signature thereto ; but, on the other hand, if twelve among you concur in the opinion that the charge is unfounded, I your foreman will write on the back of tho indictmeut the words \u201cno bill,\u201d aod, in every instance report to this Court.If there be more than one person accused in the indictment, you may, iu accordance with the evidence, bring in a \u201ctrue bill\u201d against the one, and \u201cno bill\u201d against the other.You must bear iu mind that, in obedience to your oath, you are bound to keep your proceedings secret, and you must not on any account, allow any person whatever to approach you, or to have any intercourse with you iu connection with the indictments submitted to you.You are bound to make known the result of your deliberations only in a public manner, and that, to this Court, and if, in the performance of your duties, there should arise any difficulty, you may refer'it to the Court.It is customary for Grand Jurors to visit the Gaols, Hospitals and Asylums which are subsidized by Government.It is within your province to report upon the state of the establishments visited by yon, and to make all suggestions which you may deem proper.The market-houses, wharves, ferry landings and streets, in so tar as public health aud safety are concerned, are subject to your observations.You may, with advantage, make all suggestions you deem expedient with a view to lessen the number of accidents from fires, and upon railways, unfortunately, which are so frequent.Intemperance ia the most frequent cause of crime, misery and misfortune to individuals and to families.It is the boundeu duty of the constituted authorities to give support to, and help the citizens and clergy of all denommatioas, to adopt all possible means of
