2\u2014Mr.Gladstone is attending to Government business to-dsy.The conflict in Parliament will be renewed on the motion of Mr.Reid, Liberal, declaring the defective condition of the navy is due to improper administration.The motion will be supported by the Conservatives and a section of the Wh'gs.If carried the Govern- ment will resign.Sir W.V.Harcoort, Earl Derby.Earl Spencer and Mr.Chamberlain were in favor of the resignation of the Cabinet after the recent vote on the motion of censure.\t.\t.\u201e\t__ % It is rumored that a prominent Parnelhte member of the Honse of Commons has been offered and has accepted a snng consular berth.In return for this appointment it is said that the Parnellites are to assist the Government to remain in office.The excitement occasioned by the strained relations between Russia and England regarding the Afghan frontier continaes.Consols have fallen $ in consequence of the crisis.Orders have been issued from the War Office for the immediate inspection of every regiment in the British army with a view of obtaining a correct estimate of the number of men available for active service.The re-orniting report shows the British army numbers 181,000.An explosion of fire damp occurred in the Usworth colliery, at Sunderland, yesterday morning ; 37 persons were killed.Thirty-six dead bodies have been recovered from the ruins.The search is still proceeding.There were 150 men in the mine and all were imprisoned by the jamming of the cageway.The casualties include two men who were asphyxiated while rescuing the imprisoned miners.-Dcbli.v, March 3\u2014The Priweatant Church in Gleofiuan was destroyed by dynamite to-day.The Irish Nationalists turned out in full force Sunday, and more than 10,000 of them assembled in Pbceoix Park, within a stone's throw of the Viceregal lodge, to assist Mr.Wm.O\u2019Brien, the member for Mallow, to poee as a martyr for having been silenced and suspended by Mr.Speaker Peel in the House of Commons last Tuesday nigbt.Lord Mayor John O'Connor presided and made a vigorous speech, protesting against the action of the Speaker as so insult to the whole Irish people, but the most fiery speech was that of Mr.O\u2019Brien.He said that what the Speaker needed was a dose of that rough justice sometimes metsd out to rascals in America at the banda of Judge Lynch.He denounced the Speaker aa a contemptible tyrant, who had stretched the power with which he had foolishly been clothed, not in the interests of peace and order, but to stifle the discussion of a subject, \u2018\u2018the Dublin police scandal,\u201d which was of vast importance to Ireland, but would be very unpleasant for Englishmen to listen to.The Speaker had been afraid that that oilier and greater tyrant.Lord Speacer, would get hurt, and in the true spirit of servile fluukeyism he had gagged the men who were seeking! ustice for Ireland.Mr.O\u2019Brien spoke of the English and Scotch members as an irresponsible mob.They had cheered and hooted when Ireland\u2019s voice was silenced, but no one of them knew when bis turn might come to taste of the same medicine.Mr.O\u2019Brien next paid his respects to the Prince of Wales, and asked \u201cwho invited the man to come to Ireland ?Who wants him here ?\u201d He \u2022aid there was no use in disguising the fact that the English hate the Irish and that the Irish hate the English.The tempers of both people were ripe for civil war, and if the Iron postponed the beginning of hoetilities it waa from no lack of cause or courage, but only because of the scarcity of firearms.This statement was received with wild and long continued cheers.Pa&is, March 3\u2014It is reported a list of Fenians has been found at the residence of the newspaper correspondent Kneubley.All efforts to have Kneubley released on bail are fruitless.The mouth of the Ninghpo River is closed by the French fleet.The French are cruising off the mouth of the Yaugtzkeun River to intercept rice vessels.Ihree Chinese cruis era have taken refuge behind the bar.Cannonading has been going on between the Chinese forts and French vessels.Grain has risen \u2018k0 per cent in China.Gen.Delisle telegraphs that French troops have started for Tuyengua.The French gar rison there repulsed a furious night attack by the Chinese, inflicting heavy loss upon the enemy.General Negrier attacked and dispersed the Cainese in the vicinity of Lang-son, capturing several Krupp guns and mitrailleuses.A curious case is reported from Rouen.A short time since a jeweller pierced the ears of a girl six years old for eamugs, at the request of the child\u2019s mother, for which he charged one franc.After the operation the ear becams inflamed.The inflammation spread to the neck and the child died.The doctor attributed the death to the ears having been pierced in the cartilage instead of the lobe.An action was laid against the jeweller for illegally practising surgery.The defence waa that all jewellers pierce ears, and that the death must have been caused by the mother having used some injurious lotion iostead of olive oil as directed.The jeweller was fined 50 franca for homicide through impru deoce and 150 francs to go to the parents of the child.BhaxohaI, March 3\u2014The French flee which haa been bombarding Ching Hai, h retired after doing considerable damage.Berlin, March 3\u2014In the Reichstag laat night, Bismarck denied Earl Granville\u2019s statement that he had desired England to annex Egypt.He said if England had acted on his suggestions she would now be in a better position.The Socialists are supporting a factory bill introduced by one of their members in the Reichstag.It is being opposed by the Conservatives, not so much oo account of the soope of the measure as from the fact of its parentage.The bill provides for the restriction of labour to ten hours a day, the prohi bition of the employment of children under a certain age and of women in dangerous work.It might have been expected that such a bill would have commended itself to the female employee# ; but such proves not to be the fact.Last night there waa a largely attended meeting of women held in this city, at which there was much speaking.Finally a resolution was adopted protesting against legal restrictions being placed upon the sphere or hoars of woman\u2019s work, and an association was projected to defend women\u2019s interest.In Germany woman does harder and more menial work than, perhaps, any other country in Europe.I have seen a girl carrying mortar up to the second storey of \u2022 building, while a man waited there to put it in place when it arrived.I have seen women bending Along the tow-path of \u2022 oaoal with the rope of the canal-boat over their shoulders, while the \u201ccaptain\u201d was complacently smoking on board ; and as for farm work, all that ia most laborious\u2014digging, hoeing, reaping\u2014it is all done by women.And in the face of all this the society last night protested against any legal restrictions being placed on female labour.AMERICAN.Washington, March 2\u2014Gen.Benjamin F.Butler is in serious trouble.There have for years been occasional rumors to the effect that there were irregularities in his accounts as president and treasurer of the Board of Managers of the Soldiers\u2019 Home, an office which he held for a long time previous to 18S1.The House Military Committee has this winter beer making a careful investigation of Gen Butler\u2019s accounts, and these accounts have been examined and gone over repeatedly by expert accountant#.The result is the discovery of the startling fact that Gen.Butler is short in bis accounts with the Government to the amount of over two hundred thousaud dollars, ^t appears that of the moneys received by Gen.Butler in 1872 there are $21,868 unaccounted for._ It also appears that for years preceding 1876 there has been a deficit of $211,023 in the account of purchase and sale of United States bonds.Some time ago General Butler was arked by the committee for a statement of his disbursements as treasurer.He replied, under date of February 11, giving a report of his financial agent made at' his request.This report, noon examination, discloses an error in footing amounting to $10.035.The development of the investigation was telegraphed to Gen.Butler yesterday by the Military Committee, and he was asked for an immediate explanation.A reply came from him to-day saying : \u2014\u201cHave no papers, but what I suppose to be duplicates of what are filed in Washington.Will telegraph you to-night.\u201d Those having knowledge of the details of the investigation say that they do not see how it is possible for Gen.Butler to satisfactorily explain his gross irregularities.Mr.Cleveland and party armed at i.20 this morning.New York.March 3\u2014Henry Schaeffer, the artist, shot and killed himself last night ; cause unknown.An Albany special says during the last weeks tf Glevelaua\u2019s stay in Albany he was almost daily in receipt of threatening letters.These communications declared he would never reach Washington alive.Cleveland did not take any notice of the missives.It is believed nearly all the letters came from cranks.Austin, Tex., March 3\u2014In the Senate yesterday Senator Hamson horsewhipped Farnsworth, correspondent of the Waco A*-aminer, for alleged misrepresentation.Dallas, Tex., March 3\u2014It is reported two hundred cowboys have organized to loot the Catholic German colony of Marieufeld, Martin county.The residents have been under arms for several days.A number of cowboys attempted to \u201cclean out\u2019 the town a week ago and one of them was killed.The purpose of the raid is to wreak vengeance on the inhabitants.There is a convent at Marieufeld.Managua, Nicauragua, March 3\u2014The canal treaty with the United States has been unanimously ratified by the Senate.MIDNIGHT DESPATCHES.NO DISCORD IN THE

resign.The examination of Cunningham and Burton was resumed to-day.Robert Thomas, a dock porter, testified that Barton and two others landed from the steamer \u201cDonan and were taken by the witness to a trunk shop, where Barton purchased two portmanteaus.Witness identified the portmanteau found at Charing Cross Sution as the one purchased by Burton, and the portion of a coat found m the portmanteau was similar to the coat Burton wore when making the purchases.Witness identified Burton among eighteen men, but could give no coherent description of the two men with Burton when he landed.The Southampton trunk-maker, who picked Burton from twenty men, gave similar testimony.A passenger on the \u201cDonan\u201d also identified Burton as a fellow- ^ No fear is expressed at the Russian Embassy of war between Russia and England.The press unanimously declares that England must protect the Afghan frontier at all hazards, and assert that she is fully prepared and able to assert her rights.The Times says Mr.Arthur has hllei the President\u2019s chair with prudence, public spirit and dignity, and deserves credit for having punished official corruption with exemplary severity.He can boast that he baa handed over the Government in a state of unclouded prosperity.Other papers comment in a similar strain and express the opinion that Mr.Cleveland will justify the confidence reposed in him.The German press express the belief that Bismarck\u2019s speech in the Reichstag on Monday will result in serious estrangement between England and Germany.Newcastle-on-Tyne, March 3\u2014There are ¦till 37 bodies in the Usworth colliery, making 41 dead.Woolwich, Eng., March 3\u2014It is reported in mili» ary circles that the Government haa arranged to hold in readiness

reported.Two cartridges exploded and several square feet of masonry were destroyed.Several more cartridges were found in the vicinity.the Afghan boundary, and that they form a considerable advance* in the direction of Herat.The Marquis of Lothian asked : \u201cDoes the whole question of peace or war between England aud Russia depend upon a chance squabble between the Afghan and Russian outposts.\u201d Earl Granvilel said he must have notice of the question.The Marquis thereupon gave notice that he would repeat the ques tion.HOUSE OF COMMONS.Mr.Gladstone appeared m his seat and was f welcomed with cheers.\t^ Mr.Sexton asked permission to move the adjournment of the House until he could call attention to the Speaker\u2019s conduct ia s«s-pending Mr.O\u2019Brien.Tne Sp«aker told Mr.S jxton that if he wished to impugn the Speaker\u2019s conduct he must make a direct motion to that effect.The Chair could i*ot allow any such motion as that just made for the adjournment of the House to be put.(Loud cheers.) Mr.Sexton appealed to Mr.Gladstone to allow a discussion.Mr.Gladstone replied that there was nothing in Mr.Sexton\u2019s motion entitling the mover to any special facilities.The debate upon the Redistribution of Seats Bill was resumed.Lord Fitzmaurice made a similar statement regarding the Afghan frontier question to that made by Earl Granville in the House of Lords.Lord Fitzmaurice added : \u201cThe Russian and Afghan outposts are close together six miles beyond Penjedeh.\u201d He declined to say without notice whether or not Sir Peter Lumsden had advised the Afghans to maintain their present positions by force.Amendments to the Redistribution Bill favoring the representation of minorities and increasing the number of members in order to give more members to Scotland were rejected.Ti SOirMPMGlI.Expected Advance of Abyssinian» Against the Malidi.BRACKENBURY ON THE RETURN TO M ERA WE.*r.-: N«.14,004 of THE ROYAL VISIT TO IRELAND.REMINISCENCES OF FORMER VISITS.London, March 3\u2014The Sunday Observer has an able leader on the proposed visit of the Prince ot Wales to Ireland.It believes that the apparent opposition to his visit is artificial, and is being worked up to aid the schemes of political adventurers.It says that the desperate efforts of a few truculent agitators to induce che Irish people to hold aloof from the Prince, proves that the agitators fear that he will have a popular welcome.But wuatever may be the warmth of bis reception the Observer believes that bis visit will be too late by some years to have any material influence in Ireland, as tne home rule sentiment is now too firmly established to be shaken by a royal progress.KILLARNEY TO BE VISITED.The programme of the Irish tour of the Prince and Princess of Wales includes a visit to Killarney, where they will remain two days.THE prince\u2019s FORMER VISITS.A correspondent writes to say that within his own knowledge the Prince of Wales paid two visits to Ireland prior to the visit of 1868.The visit in 1868 was the only official visit.In the former instances he was in Ireland, not as the heir of the throne, but be frequently visits Paris and the continent in his private capacity.KISSING THE BLAKNET STONE.Our correspondent says :\u2014It may be inter eating to your numerous readers to know that the Prince of Walee paid two visits to Ireland previous to the year 1868 ; the first was a pleasure visit of about a montn, and amongst the objects of interest visited was the famous Blarney stone, and a royal kisa waa imprinted upon that favoured lump of granite.He waa next with his regiment, the Coldstream Guards, for four months at the camp of the Curragh, Sir George Brown.K C.B., being commander of the forces, and during a march out at the head of ten thousand troops to Mary borough,a distance of eighteen miles, His Royal Highness carried, the greater part of the way, the whole kit of a private soldier, who had fainted under the load, comprising rifle, knapsack, sixty rounds of ammunition, tent pole and square of canvas.Not a bad load for a royal youth of eighteen ; and upon reaching the camp ground at Maryborough, gave to each of the ten thousand men a pint of Dublin stout, to refresh themselves after the march, and after a four days\u2019 camp, marched back with his men to the Curragh in a drenching rain, and again wetted the interior of every man with a pint of stout and entertained the officers at the end of each march.FRANCE.Paris, March 3\u2014A tumultuous meeting Anarchists was held last night.The editor of the Cri du Peuple presided.The -peakera were constantly interrupted.The Communist leaders have announced their intention to march through the streets on the anniversary of the Commune with red flajs and revolutionary emblems.The police fear there will be a riot.Quebec & Lake St, JolmRailway ON AND AFTER MONDAY, 12th instant, Trains will run daily (Sundays excepted) to and from Palais SUtion, Quebec, as follows G-olxxs JXToxrtla.4nn D M MAIL leaves Quebec for Lake iUU r«m* Simon, arriving there at 7.15 p.m.G-OlXRS StOUtlR.8 3(1 A M MAIL leaves St.Raymond for \u2022 ZU n.m.Q110i,aCt arriving there at 8.55 a.m.8nn D il FREIGHT leaves Lake Simon .UU r.HI.jor Raymond, arriving there at 8.30 p m.tr Trains run by Easterr.Standard Time.Trains connect at St.Ambroise with Htaça.for Indian Lorette, at Valoartier Station with Stages for Valoartier Village, and at St.Gabriel with the new road for the River a&* p,ft8 Single Fare return first-class Tickets on Saturdays good till following Tuesday, L5VE h ALDEN, J- G SOOTT, Ticket Aveuts.See.k Manager, Januaiy 10, 1885.Commercial Onarobers QUEBEC CENTRAL RftILWIY.FALL AND WINTER ARRANGEMENTS.piOMMENCINGMONDAY.N iVFMBER 3rd, 1884, Trains will run as follows : The New South Wales Continuent Started for Egypt THE KASSALA GARRISON AGAIN DEFEATED.\tMail\tMxd\tFrgt.Leave Sfierbroone for Beance\tA.M.\t\tA.M.J ot., Levis and Quebec.\t8.15\t\u2022 \u2022 a \u2022\u2022\t7.15 \tP.M\t\tP.M.Arrive Boauce Jet\t\t\t\t1 10\t\t4.30 Arrive Levis\t\t3.45\t\t\u2022 \u2022 \u201c Quebec Ferry\t Leave Quebec for Beance Jet.,\t4.00\t\t\t\t Sberbrooke, and Now\tA.M.\t\t England points, Ferry.Leave Levis\t\t1' .30 11 00\t\t\t \tP.M.\t\t Arrive Boauoe Jot\t\t\t\t\t1.10\t\t\t\u2022 \u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022 Leave Beauco Jot\t\t\t\t1.25\ta \u2022 e \u2022\u2022\t6.50 \t\t\tP.M.Arrive Sherbrooke\t\t6.15\t\u2022 a \u2022 \u2022\u2022\t3.00 >\t\tP.M.\t Leave Levis for St, Joseph.\t\u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\u2022\t300\tease Arrive St.Joseph\t\t\t\t7.10\t\t \t\tA.M.\t Leave St.Ttaepb for Levis.\t\u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\u2022\t6 00\t\t Arrive Levir\t\t\t\t\t\t10.00\t\t DOMINION LINE OF STEAMSHIPS.GRAND TRUNK RAILWAV.COMMENCING Monday, September 8th, 1884 GOING WEST.11.80 A.M.\u2014Mixed Trai will leave Point Lev for Richmond and points Ea and West, arriving in Montrea at 9.40 PM.8 3C P.M.\u2014Night Express for Richmond Sherbrooke, Island Pond, Gorham Lewiston, Portland Montreal, and points East, West, South-Wert and North Wtst GOING EAST Korti, March 3\u2014General Brackenbury\u2019s force arrived at Birti Sunday, on the return marqh to Merawe.Cairo, March 3 \u2014A newspaper here think* the Abyssinian army will invade the Mahdi\u2019s territory within three months, 3,000 Abyssin-ians being now at the mercy of the Mahdi.Richmond, March 3\u2014The story that a number of ex-Coufederates are going to the Soudan to fight the British is a hoax.Rome, March 3\u2014It is stated semi-officially that Italy remains in the Red Sea littoral at her own risk.The Italian troops there are said to be poorly equipped and the commissariat bad.It is authoritatively stated that a convention between Italy and England relative to the Soudan gives Italy equal rights with England in Egypt and allows Italy full liberty of action.Paris, March 3\u2014Olivier Pam has not been beard from forseveral months.It is supposed that be has been robbed and murdered in the Soudan.\t* _\t_T Sydney, N.S.W., March 3\u2014The New South Wales contingent for the Soudan campaign, comprising 800 men, started to-day.Their departure was made the occasion of a public holiday.Suakim, March 3\u2014The garrison af Kassala has had another battle with the Haddendo-wahs and been completely defeated.The Emir writes that unless speedily relieved the garrison will succumb to famine.Leaving Montreal.10-1 Arriving at Point Levi.7.0 A.M« Mixed leaves Montreal.7 00 A M.\u201c arriving at Point Levi.6.30 P.M \u201c haves Richmond.\\.9,00 A.M.arrives at Point Levi.3.30 P M, JOSEPH HIOKSON, Goner» Manager.Montreal, September 8, 138 September 9.1884.tVTrains run on' 'Eastern Standard\u201d time.Fifteen minutes allowed for refreshments at Beance Junction.Sure CONNECTIONS made at Sherbrooke with Passumpsic and Grand Trank Railways for Newport, Boston, Portland, New York aud all New England Points.At ITarlaka Junction with Intercolonial Railway for River du Loup, Riraouski, Halifax, St.John, and all points in the Maritime Provinces ;

the 'Halifax newspa pen of Saturday last.None of them have editorials on the short line question, though one would think that a matter involving so much that is of general interest to the Maritime Provinces would have been worthy of some expression of opinion, particularly when the question was emphasized in a striking manner by the presence of a strong delegation from this city.The journals report the proceedings at the meeting on Friday, but even this task is performed in a perfunctory way, the Government paper contenting itself with a bald outline, considerably less than two columns in length, while the Chronicle gives three columns.The result of the visit of our friends to Halifax is not encouraging, the resolutions agreed upon are largely non-committal and though they favour a short Hue, no special route is indicated.\u201cGet the best,\u201d they tell us, just as the proprietors of celebrated hair washes advise the readers of their advertisements Our delegation in Halifax acquitted itself well,as we presume it did in St.John, though we have no full reports from the latter place yet.The Chronicle's report of the proceedings is interesting and we transcribe part of it to-day that our readers may note the spirit in which the recommendations of our people was discussed.The Mayor of Halifax occupied the chair, and after Lieut.-Col.Baby had made a lengthy explanation of the object which brought the delegation so far, ho concluded by asking the large audience present what they thought about the matter.From this point we follow the report :\u2014 Tue Mayor suggested that City Engineer Keating read for the general information of the meeting a statement cf the various lir.es proposed, maps being on the table.Mr.Keating, io commencing, said that he had, he thought, a!i but the R'viers du Loup line mentioce 1 by Col.Baby ; but that gentleman explained it to be tho same as the River Oueile lice, the two places being ocly a tew miles apart.The lines were as tollows : No.1.Via the North Shore aud I.C.Railways, involving a bridge at Cap Rouge, five miles above Quebec, 855 miles.No.Via the North Snore Railway, bridging at Quebec, to Hartland and Moncton, 69S miles\u20143*29 to be built, or if carried around by Fredericton, 30 miles loager.No.3.Via tho North Shore to Quebec by M*jor Yuih\u2019s survey ol 1847, 703 miles\u2014347 to be built.No, 4.Via River Ouello, E.linundstou aud Fredericton, all through Cauadian territory, 776 miles\u2014181 to build.No.5.Via Lnchinc, Sherbrooke and Lake Megantic.with gradings stated to bo very heavy, 746 miles\u2014 474 to build.No.6 Montreal to Sr.John, via the same as No.2 to Uartlaml, sud thence to St John via Fredericton ; 4!H) miles, about 209 to be built.No.7.Montreal to St.John via Megantic Canterbury aud Harvey and tho European aud North American railways ; 496 miles and about 396 to be built.la tho last two lines Halifax was not par ticulariy interested.Alderman Heaun followed in a capital speech, which was frequently interrupted by applause.After he had sat down, Mr.Thomson, acting chairman of the delegation, read the resolutions which tho people of Quebec at a mass meeting had adopted on the 3rd inst., and which were submitted at a committee meeting here on the 19th instant, as previously published He didn't think he could add anything to what the lost speaker had already said, but be desired to enforce cn the attention his belief that if the St.Lawrence was bridged at Lachino the line\tto the\tsea board would go to\ttho\tcities Portland, Boston aud New York.It couldn\u2019 be expected that tho mileage ditference to Halifax would be sufficient to counteract tho rates of freightotfered from our smaller ports.Boston and New York have ab sorbed so many western roads already that he thought it was likely, with a bridge at Lachine, they would absorb this too.He thought it was in the interest of tho Mari time Provinces altogether to act with Que bec in this\u2014(applause)\u2014and if the Pro vinces would stand by them he believed they would secure their ends.(Applause).The Mayor enquired about tho route most favored by the delegation, explained the mileage and asked the people of Halifax to express their views on the matter.Mr.James Thomson asked what were the prospects of acquiring the North Shore Railway and the probable cost of the bridge at Quebec.Col.Baby, in reply, said that the question of the acquisition of the North Shore read by the C.P.R.was practically settled.As to the bridge, the estimate* for it were prepared by Mr.Light and corro borated by one of the first engineers of England.It would cost five million dollars with the railways on each side.It was to be a cantilever bridge on tho same style as that now being constructed over the Frith of Forth.The proposition to the Government was for a guarantee of fourpor cent, for twenty-five years on a capital limited to five millions.The estimates showed a surplus of some thirty or forty thousand dollars after the construction.The toll being placed at 84 per car* the Government would receive the profits of the road, about two per cent., so that if the estimates proved correct the guarantee would cost the Government nothing.He understood from Mr.Light that on this basis English capital would be able to take up the bridge and put it through.Hon.J.'W.Longley was rather waiting to hear from some mercantile gentlemen, but enquired of the delegation what he thought was a principal question\u2014what amount of political support had they assured in favor of their scheme ?Could they assure us that they had sufficiently strong interest with the Ministry to warrant us in assuming that our co-operation would ensure success \\ He had heard that Mr.Chapleau and one or two others were in favor of the Quebec route, but he had hardly, at this distance, of late been able to obtain any positive information as to these prospects.Alderman Hearn replied that tho Ministers were not apt to disclose their intentions, and tho Government were not able to tell themselves what they might do, but he believed it was wholesome to agitate and try all they could to get the Government to look at it as we desired.It was a fair constitutional agitation, and he was quite sure that if we Vere aiming at the right the Government would be with us.Mr.MacCoy, M.P.P., enquired what anticipations tho delegation had from St.John.Col.Baby replied that with reference to the route the Government had declared nothing would be done till after the surveys were laid before the House.Mr.MacCoy asked if they were aware of the nature of a private survey authorized by the Government recently, or its result ; it was sent out to verify a certain route.Col.Baby replied that he believed there might be something of that nature, and fromjwhat little .had transpired it showed the correctness of that survey, on which doubts had been thrown.Mr.McRae, M.P.P.t spoke at some length in favor of justice to Cape Breton in iho matter, and stating his belief that no matter what might bo done by artificial means nature would finally command Loui.v burg to become the terminus of tho road.He would like to take the delegation down and show them tho place.His remarks wore received with laughter and applause.Dr.Farrell said he would rather that Bomo members of the mercantile community would discuss the matter and show tho position of utlairs as they now existed.Ho did not know whether the delegates were aware of the most advantageous route, as the survej\u2019s had not yet boon completed and the engineers had not reported.But on behalf ot the people of Halifax at largo, the delegation that had been sent from here to Ottawa, the Chamber of Commerce aud the City Council, he would say that in their representations to the Dominion Government they had not urged that Halifax should bo tho terminus of the Canada Pacific Railway.They had only urged that the terminus should be in the Maritime Province.*.If Louisburg wanted it and thought that her representations would be more etlectivo in securing the terminus in this province, sjie could go ahead and have it.As for the all-rail route which he believed tho delegation were advocating, it would be very little better than the Intercolonial For a great many years Halifax had been making strenuous elTorts to have tho winter port located here.But on account of the great length of tho Intercolonial all their efforts had signally failed.If he was not mistaken Halifax would never receive any substantial benefit from a through railway, unions it came by a direct route.And bearing this fact in mind, he thought that now.when the Dominion Commona was in session, it was the right time to make the necessary representations ior 14n: purpose of\tm,r rights in this matter, and preventing, if possible, the carrying out of any scheme to make the outlet for tho western part of the Dominion trade in an American port.Col.Baby said the people of Quebec were sufficiently reasonable not to insist on anything that was n4t for the general good of the country.In advocating the River Oueile lino they did so on tho recommendations of men who fully understood that subject.The tables that had been read had been carefully prepared, and they kney tho facts of tho cas3 fairly well, aud when the returns of the surveys were laid on the table of the House of Commons the statistics now in their possession would no doubt be found nearly correct.Ho did not guarantee tho accuracy of the figures, but he also did not know if they could be contested.If the figures were reliable the difference in the mileage between tho route via River Quelle, Edmunston aud Fredericton, 776 miles, and the route via Lachine, Sherbrooke and Lake Megantic, 746, was very small indeed.They advocated the line via the North Shore to Quebec, by Major Yuill\u2019s survey, because they thought it was tho best.If the reports, when submitted to Parliament, were found to show that a railway through Maine was the most advantageous to all concerned, tho people of Quebec would not stand in the way of its construction.If the line crossed the St.Lawrence at Montreal the traffic would inevitably go down to the Maritime Province*.But it was a physical impossibility to bridge the St.Lawrence any further down than Quebec.At the last session of Parliament a line from Montreal to Quebec was informally submitted, but it was received unfavorably.The question now was how the railway could be brought down to tho Maritime Provinces, and he considered that this could be Accomplished more quickly and satisfactorily by having it come by tho way of Quebec.Tho surveys would shortly be before the public and the people could judge for themselves, as the result would be known during the present session of Parliament.They had not taken up the subject in the interests of Quebec alone, as they believed their interests tc ho common with those of Hali fax and St, John, and it was only by standing firmly together that they could get the route most desirable for all.The O.P.R.hod little or no interest in tho Maritime Provinces, and unless there was united action they would bo very little Short Lino seen here.They would have to look to'themsolvcs\u2014tho electors\u2014to bring pressure to bear on tho Dominion Government to do what they were bound to do in the interests of the country.The C.P.U.Company were now actually before Parliament with a request fur more assistance, and now was the time to protect our mutual interests.The people\u2019s money was building that railway and it was only pro per that the people should control the traffic of the line in the interests of the country.Mr.MacCoy wanted to know if the delegates had any programme to submit, as it was necessary for them to know what was wanted.He had been recently in Ottawa and had taken the trouble to acquire some information about the Short Line, and by what he bad then learned ho did not think we would get it nt all.At present influence was being brought to bear to have the line taken direct to St.John.Before getting there he understood the mad would be branched, one line going to Moncton and tho other to St.John, aud if Halifax did not assert her rights she would be left out in the cold altogether.He fully believed that tho Canadian Pacific Railway did not intend to run their lino to Quebec.When tho people of that place pressed their claims upon the Government it was their intention to obtain the most direct route from Quebec to Moncton, which would undoubtedly be best for tho Maritime Provinces.But if it was to be built through Canadian territory, it was not tho best for these Provinces.If the Dominion Government would deliberately vote 830,000,000 for tho C.P.R.they ought to be able to give 810,000,000 for a direct lino to the Maritime Provinces He hoped and trusted that tho Committee would give tho meeting their ideas about the shortest and most direct route.If the matter was not soon settled tho people would soon be disgusted with discussing the subject.Mr.J.A.Chipman thought the question of the cost of shipping freight was of moro importance than the construction of a short lino, as it more particularly affect ed the interests of the Maritime Provinces than any question relating to European trade.He then proceeded to argue that it was more advisable to have the terminus either in Boston, New York or Portland.Grain could be shipped from New York to the old country for a penny a bushel, which could not be done from this port, and unless wo had resident grain exporters we could not cultivate the trade.The only hope of tho C.P.R.getting their direct exports to European markets was through American seaports.On tho other hand the people of the Maritime Provinces had a great difficulty to contend with, as tho Grand Trunk Railway would not mako competitive rates.It was the duty of the people of this city to unite in a solid phalanx and see if they could not havo freight rates arranged so as to be more acceptable to all parties.Quebec should be content with a ferry service, and the sooner they had a line from Montreal to Moncton the sooner they could make their own terms with the Grand Trunk Railway.If the Quebec people had ever stood in their own light, it was when they did not impress upon the Government the desirability of a ferry, so that they could have the Grand Trunk Railway on one side and the C.P.R.on the other.They could no more change the natural course of trade than they could change nature itself.Mr.MacCoy\u2014\u201cBut we can change the Government if the C.P.R.makes its terminus at Portland.\u201d The Mayor\u2014\u201cWhy not have a perversion at this end as well as at the other end, the road having been taken North of Lake Superior as well as to tho South ?\u201d Mr.Chipman then continued to argue that the great bulk of tho trade coming over tho C.P.It.must find an outlet at Boston, New York or Portland.The Mayor briefly commented on such unwelcome statements.Mr.MacCoy said lie believed there were only two ways of us getting tho most direct and shortest route.One was through the assistance of Quebec and tho other by the Pope line, which wouldn\u2019t connect with Quebec at all.Mr.Jones asked if the Committee hadn\u2019t formulated some resolution.The Mayor replied that they had, subject to modification if tho meeting required.Dr.Farrell said it was true great pressure was being brought to bear against Halifax.The gentlemen from Quebec ad.vocated an all-Canndinn route, which ho claimed would bo building simply another Intercolonial CO or 70 miles shorter.If they asked fr tho shortest line from Quebec hero through tho north of Maino it would be to our iulvantngo.Ho certainly thought tho bridge at Quebec would bo botter than at Lachine, but tho I.C.R had properly been called a sentimental line, and what wo wanted now was a thorough commercial one.The whole thing was in doubt because they didn\u2019t know tho facta and must wait till we got the Goverment's surveys and studied them carefully.Then wo would be prepared to co-operate with Quebec.But ho couldn\u2019t think of being committed to an all-Canadian route which would bo little better than tho Intercolonial.The resolution in his hands, and which ho had much pleasure in moving, was as follows : Ilesolved, That this meeting appreciates the great importance of securing the construction of tho shortest and best line of railway to connect the several railways of tho Dominion, leading from tho west to the Atlantic seaboard, at some port within the Dominion of Canada, and having hoard with much interost the statement of the delegates from Quebec on this important question desires to express the thanks of the meeting to the members of the delegation for tho valuablo information given.Resolved further.That this meeting is of opinion that the Short Line committee should cordially co-operato with the people of Quebec and the other Maritime Provinces in advocating tho constructiou of such railway on tho shortest and best lino that can be obtained, having in view the interests of the several of the Maritime Provinces and Dominion at large, and that in tho prosecution of such object the committee should receive the most earnest support of tho Maritime Provinces.The resolution was seconded by Mr.T.E.Kenny, and after further discussion, report of which is crowded out this morn-lnion His inaugural address, in which an index of his policy will bo indicated, will be looked for with interest on both sides the Atlantic.Government employees to tho number of one hundred thousand will have a deep and absorbing interest in th actions of Mr.Ci.evkland during the next few weeks.Decapitation will not come to everybody of Republican sympathies, wo are

Tlreu Of that fatal malady, Bright's disease, tho Hon.Isaac Burpek, of St.John, died at Now York, the other day.By his death the Liberal party of Canada loses one of its most upright and honorable members, and the city of St.John mourns a good citizen, an ever watchful representative and a prominent merchant of many yoars landing.Isaac Bcrpee, tho elder son of the late Isaac Burpee, was born at Sheffield, N.B., on the 28th November, 1825.He received his education -at the County Grammar School, and removed to St.John in 1848, and soon afterwards embarked in the hardware business with his brother Frederick, under the style and firmtif I.& F.Burpee.This firm was very successful, and earned a reputation for fair dealing and honesty which extended throughout the whole country.In 1872, Isaac Burpee was acked by the citizens of St.John to accept the nomination for the county.He had not identified himself very much with politics.He was a Liberal, but .beyond voting for the man ol Ids choice, he had never taken a very prominent part in political affairs.Yet when his name was mentioned in tho newspapers as a possible candidate for Parliament, almost every man in the county made up his mind to vote for him.The people were bound to have a merchant to represent them, and Isaac Burpee was triumphantly elected.He joined Mr.Tilley as a Liberal and accepted tho Coalition Government of Sir Jons A.Macdonald.When the Pacific scandal overturned the administration, Mr.Burpee announced himself in opposition.and at the general election of 1874, he was again returned for the constituency.Mr.Mackenzie offered him the portfolio of Customs, on accepting which, he was elected by acclamation.In 1878 and in 1882, he was again returned by his party to Parliament.As Minister of Customs he acquitted himself well, and brought to bear on his office the valuable experience which lie had gained as the'hoad of an extensive wholesale business for many years.Ho was a clear, convincing and forcible speaker, not an orator by any means, but his sound and practical views found ready expression through his voice.He was an untiring and energetic worker, and Committees of the House will lose in him one of tho most able and capable men to be found on the floors of Parliament.At home he occupied himself with every movement likely to conduce to the public good.He was a great citizen and always succeeded in closely identifying himself with local affairs.He was Chairman of Portland Town Council for many years, and a fine free Public Library, remains as a monument to his sincerity, munificence and good will He held important and responsible posts in Insurance and Coal Mining Companies, and was a Director of tho Deaf and Dumb Institution, the St.John Industrial School, the Congregational Union of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia and of the Evangelical Alliance On the 8th of March, 1855, he espoused the hand of Henrietta, daughter of Mr.Thomas Robertson, of Sheffield, England, by whom he had a large family.He gave much in charity, and his large-hearted sympathies were readily awakjned always.In St.John he will be greatly missed.Pig Iron, &c\u201e So.GeoJ.Webster Ho March 3, 18.-5.NEW NOVELS !

With the information before the House he proposed to prove the accuracy of tha allegation.Sir RICHARD\u2014The honorable gentleman as great faith in that policy.Sir LEONARD\u2014Yea, greater than the membera of tha Opposition, but no greater than the majority of the people of Canada.(Applanse.) Sir Leonard, continning, said the.Oppoaition were proverbial for gloomy anticipation, and m the House and trhough the country never lost an opportunity to endeavor to show that the present policy was an extravagant one and added to the taxation of the people.He would show to the satisfaction oi the House and the country that while the expenditure had iooreased, taxation had not increased beyond the population.It was an easy thing for the Opposition to say that the expenditure had increased from about $'24,000,000 in 1878 to thirty or thirty-one million in 1884, and that that was ample evidence of extravagance.The expenditure for the five years from 1874 to 1879 averaged $23,900,000.He wonld mike a comparison with the expenditure of 1884 to show that although the item of expenditure had largely increaaed, yet taxation had been redneed.(Cheers).The difference between the two periods in expenditure was 7£ million dollars, bat the item presented that way was calculated to mislead.He first took up the expenditure on railways and canals ;*in 1884 it was $1,035,443.81 more than in 1878, bat that did not entail increased taxation.There was increased mileage, an extension of business and the receipts were $ô00,000better than before.Then there was the Post OSioeDepartment expenditure which was $188,020 more in 1884 than in 1878 ; that was added to the expenditure but did not increase taxation.Greater postal facilities were offered and greater benefits were secured to the business community.(Hear, hsar.) The extension of the system in the new Province naturally is responsible for much of the increos ed expenditure, and no reasonable man could expect the revenue at the outset in snob a case to equalize expenditure, but then this did not increase taxation.Then there was the item in connection with Dominion lands which showed an increase of $79,207 ; with the vastness of the territory transferred to the Dominion and the magni tnde of its management so as to meet the requirements of settlers who at present bad made no returns, the amonnt must be considered small.Tne success of the Dominion lands under the preseut Government oonld be best illustrated by showing that from 1874 to lS784he receipts were $889,292 61, while in the five years from 1879 to 1884 they were $4,070.540.It was therefore easy to under stand why tho management of sueh an extent cf country justified the extra expendi tcre cf GO or 70 thousand dollars.Mr.MACKENZIE\u2014Does that include the capital expenditures ?Sir LEONARD, continuing, said it did not.He would deal with that bye and bye.Then there was the item for public works ; the sx penditure, in 1884, was increased $1,010,256 ; in 1878 it was $998,594, and in 1884, $2.908.851, It was a charge upon the country, he admitted, but he thought that was justi tied when the Oovercment were expending their surplus monies in erecting permanent buildings, improving oar harbors and rivers, and that, he might say, would be tho policy of the Government in the futnre when the treasury was in a condition to permit it.It was proposed to erect buildings in every place where the Government were now erect ing inferior structures.(Cheers ) These improvements .were assets and trade and commerce depended on the facilities fur airbed for its extension by the Government With re'erence to interest, he contended that we were paying $300,000 per annum, less for inimicration and quarantine.In 1877 it was $186,601 &n-l in 1884 $.>,5,.5.16, an increase oi over $300,000 annually during the five years from 1879, but the results of this expenditure had been very gratifying ^n increased population.It was unnecessary to add more in ibis direction.Hu* extra expenditure on militia and defence us ccniparcd with 1877 was occasioned mainly by the establishment of thn o infantry schools and one cavalry school, but if an average was ¦truck for the five years ending 1884, it would not bo in excels of the average during tho Msckenz e administ atioa.N\\ ith reference to the increased expenditure under the head of fisheries, occasioned by the bounty on fish, there was nothing to regret.It had stimulated that trade, and the Opposition members having favored it, there could be no objection raised on that score.A small extra expenditure had been sanctioned for the Indians.It was better that the Government should take this course until tho Indians were educated to provide for themselves Ilian expose the lives aud property ot white settlers to danger.The absence of the buffalo from their hunting grounds was one of the strongest reasons why the original owners of the soil should he provided for.(Cheer?\u2019, ihe Mounted Police expenditure could not be objected for reasons given last year.Subsidies, $130,906, was for concessions made to tho Manitoba Government claims between 18,4 and 1879.The increase of lighthouse and coast service of $58,000 was in tho interest of the country.Tne improvement in tho lighthouse system had not only reduced the rate of interest but rates aa well for inbound and out-going freight.This was a direct benefit to the people and much in excess ol tho ox-pendituro.He defended the increase of $261,-047 for Civil Government as compired with 1878, and pointed put that durina the post five years, notwithstanding the great growth of public business and the progress of the country only 119 names, permanent and temporary, bad been added to the Civil Sîrvice list.The Opposition had made this the basis of many an attack, but no one understanding the natnral increase of business could say that there had been extravagance.Tne regular increase of $50 a year, provided by statute to 420 officiali*, would make $127,000 of the sum, and tho transfer by the geological bureau under the bead of Civil Government made up an additional $36,000.Ihen time was $14,000, tho salary of the High Commissioner, and contingency another$14,000, with an item of $4,600 for the Civil Ssrvice Board of Examiners.There was still left $80,000 to be accounted for, which was really the in-create for )8â4.Ho proceeded to show lhat the taxation instead of being increased in 1879-1884, as compared with the five years average of the Mackenzie Government, was in point of fact ten cents below that figure.He presented tho data because the hon.gentlemen opposite had made a statement in poblio to the effect that our taxation was nearly double that of the United States, while in point of fact Canada was the lightest taxed people in the world.He went into carefully prepared statistic», to prove that during the five years from 187!) to 1884 the interest on the public debt had been reduced by 8J cents per head as compared with the five preceding years, one of the beneficial effects of a proper use being made of the surplus, while in point of fact wo expended $65,000,000 on railways, canals, and other public improvements.11c discussed the trade returns, comparing the five years between 1872 and 1877 with 1879 aara.North Shore Railw ay.\u2014Rumor, in connection with the alleged sale of the North \\ A

Judgment.M GREKVY Y3.the qcben.Judgment was rendered by Judge Caron on the 2od inst.in the case of the Hon.Thos.McGreevy vs.the Qneen, on a petition of rig fueruN wo d« ; ly sjm-p .O'.ui in tbts st i hour of their affliction» ¦ The British steamer \u201cCastleford\u201d left Trieste on December 16th bonnd to New York.Capt.C.A.Sibtborpe was in com mand.Until January 16th all went well, bat on that day, in latitude 37 deg.4 min., longitude 49 deg.45 min., at half-past seven p.m., the wind at the time blowing a gale trom south south-west and a high sea ran niog, the propeller struck a floating log or wreckage.Tne vessel fell off into the trough of the sea, and, rolling heavily, shifted and damaged the cargo \u2019tween decks and in the Inweur hold.From that time on for many weary days constant work and good judgment were required to save the ship and those on board.The main steam pipe cracked en January 20th, when the engines were stopped.Sharp lockout for steamers was kept, and on January 21st the \u201cRegina,\u201d of Sunderland, bound to New York, was sighted and signalled.Arrangements were made to tow the \u201cCastleford\u201d into Halifax.Half an hoar after making the attempt the wire hawser parted.Another attempt and it again parted.It was again made fast, and at midnight tho \u201cCastleton s\u201d hawser was carried away in the nip.at the bows.Capt.Sibtborpe asked the \u201cRegina\u201d to stand by him until daylight as the weather was very squally and the ship unmanageable.Tne \u201cRegina\u201d would not comply and left the disabled vessel.Then the rudder was found to be shaken, and the terrible rolling of the vessel was continually shifting and damaging the cargo.FORCED TO FCT BACK.Squalls, high beam seas, fresh gales from the northward and the ship rolling heavily marked the days until January 25, the steam pipe meanwhile having been repaired.At eight a.m.on the latter date the captain, finding it impossible to fight the ship to the westward or into the track of steamers bound west\u2014which, if sighted, would scarcely try to tow a vessel in such bad weatner\u2014he \u201cdeemed it pracient and for the good of all concerned to pnt back to the Western Islands \u2014if, by God\u2019s mercy, we ever reach there\u2014 and I did accordingly.\u201d This is the entry in the logbook.Strong gales from west and southwest were had on January 26, when two or three sails were carried away.THE CAPTAIN\u2019S HAPPT THOUGHT.The sea was so heavy the efiect of oil bags was tried.One was hang forward and another aft on the weather side with perfect snesess.The oil bags were again brought into requisition with the same success on Janaary 27, when Captain Sibtborpe mad* the following entry in the log book :\u2014\u201cI do think these oil bags a grand institution.In fact a ship should have tanks for the .purpose, with taps on the side, to ose when necessary.\u201d Gales from the westward, heavy seas, rain and snow squalls, with officers and crew on duty almost night and day until February 3, is the record, when the ship auohored outside the breakwater at Point Delaga-ta, St.Michael\u2019s.Repairs were begun at once, and the \u201cCastleford\u201d yesterday safely anchored off the Battery.Captain Sib-thorpe says :\u2014\u201cHad it nut been for the untiring exertions of my officers and crew, night and day, during oar terrible ordeal, and also the engineers, who stuck to their poets like men wnen the main steam pipe was cracked, I could not have brought the «bip 1,150 miles through fearful gales with only a few sails and the half of one propeller blade into a port of safety without assistance.The \u201cCastleford\u201d is 321 feet long, 40 feet 2 inches beam, 29 feet 4 inches deep, and of 2,006 tons, fine was built in 1833.and has compound inverted engines with cylinders 38 inches and 74 inches in diameter by 48 inches stroke of piston.HAYED AFTER FEARFUL SUFFERING.Captain Thomas Joseph, his wife and their little daughter, two years and three months old, together with à crew of seven men, five or whom are colored, were taken off the sinking schooner \u201cLizzie C.Hickman\u201d on the 10th insr., in latitude 33 deg.20 min., longitude 54 degree.30 min., by the ship \u201cI.F.Chapman,\u201d and safely landed at this port yesterday morning.Tne \u201cHickman\u201d left Richmond, Va., on January 8, bound to New York with a cargo of copper ore and staves.The \u201cChapman\u201d was from Liverpool, being forty-five days in making the passage.Toe story told by Captain Joseph is corroborftfive of the reports from incoming vessels for weeks regarding the turbulent mood of the Atlantic.The gales and confused seas which to*3ed the etnrfiy vessel about like a cork and battered her until helpless and half fall of water, together with the suffering of the men seems like a yarn devoid of truth.The \u201cChapman\u201d also experienced very severe weather.In fact, the rescuing ship has been in bad luck for a long time, for it was np-m her deck, on October 7, when bonnd from San Francisco to Liverpool, that Jansen, a Russian seaman, was alleged to have been murdered by Second Mate Rauscher and Boatswain Kollpin, who are now in Ludlow street jail awaiting trial.And since leaving San Francisco, it is roported that four of the \u201cChapman\u2019s'1 crew have been accidentally killed.Captain Joseph says the weather was pleasant for seven days after leaving Richmond, but ou the 15th inst., when off Cape Henry, a gale from tho southwest struck them, and, blowing with terrible force for ten hours, shifting to west northwest, afterwards to south southwest and then back to northwest, making a dangerous confusod sea.The vessel soon began to leak, and the deck load of staves was lost.Day after day the gales continued and increased in strength.The sea at times was feather white, and snow and hail cut like a knife.Sails were blown into ribbons, and the men, worn out and benumb ed, could do no work.On February 4 the steamer \u201cTeddington,\u201d from Yokohama tor New York, supplied the \u201cHickman\" with provisions and water.Four days after a gale irom the southwest struck tbem, and for seventy-two hours they were helpless.The tires were extinguished and the men\u2019s hands and feet were frozen.Seas continually washed over the vessel and tossed the men about like so many chips.The stern of the boat was partly carried away on the 7th inst.Mr.Wilson, mate, lost two of his fingers by being frozen.The captain fell sick auu could do but hule.What hope was left within them was wholly blotted out by drifting past a quantity of wreckage, there being several boats, spars and other stuff distributed over the water for a long distance.Worse than all, on one piece of rigging the bodies of six men frozen stiff were lashed.The sight was ghastly in the extreme.badoes, which had been abandoned.Position not stated.Brig \u201cSunshine\u201d (Br), at Liverpool, 27th, from

the mouth has a bad taste, especially in the morning.A soit of sticky slime collects about the teeth.The appetite is poor.There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach ; sometimes a faint all-gone sensation at the pit ef the stomach which food docs not satisfy- The eyes are sunken, tho hanus and feet becom- eeld and feel clammy.After a while * coush sou in at first dry, but after a few months it is attended with a greenish coloured expecU ration.The afflicted one feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest.After a time he becomes nervous, irritable, and gloomy, and has evil forebodings- There is a giddiness, a sort ot whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly.The bowels become costive ; the skin is dry and hot at times ; the blood becomes thick and stagnant ; the whites of the eyes b come tinged with yellow, the urine is scanty and high-coloured, depositing * sediment after standing.There is frequently a spitting up ef th food, sometimes with a sour taste, and sometimes with a sweetish taste ; this is frequently attended with palpitation off the heart ; the vision becomes impaired with spots before the eyes ; there is a feeling df great prostration and weakness.All of these symptoms are in tarn present.It is thought that nearly one-third of our population has this disease in some of its varied forms.It has been found that medical men have mistaken the nature of this disease.Some have treated it fo a liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., eto., but none of the various kind of treatment have been attended with success, because the remedy should be sueh as to act harmoniously upon eaoh ono of these organs, and upon the stomaoh as well ; for in Dyspepsia (for this is really what the disease is) all of these organs partake of this disease and require a cemedy that will act upon all at the same rime.Seigel\u2019s Curative Syrup acts like a charm in this class ot complaints, giving almost immediate relief.The following letters from chemists of standing in the community where they live show in what estimation the a tiole is held.John Archer, Harthili, near Sheffield I can confidently recommend it to all who may be suffering from liver or stomach complaints, having the testimony of my customers, who have derived great benefit from the Syrup and Pills The sale is inereasing wonderfully.Geo.A.Webb, 141, York Street, Belfast I have sold a large quantity, and the parties have testified to it being what you represent it.J.S.Metcalfe, 55, Highgate, Kendal I have always great pleasure in recommending the Curative Syrup, for I have never known a case in which it has not relieved or cured, and 1 have sold many grosses.Robt G.Gould, 27, High Street, Andover I have always taken a great interest in your medicines and I have recommended them, as I have found numerous oases of oure from their use.Thomas Chapman, West Auckland I find that the trade steadily increases.I sell more of your medicines than any other kind.N.Darroll, Clun, Salop All who buy it are pleased, and recommend it.Jos.BalKwill, A.P.S., Kingsbridje The public seem to appreciate their great value.A.Armstead, Market Street, Dalton-in-Fur ness :\u2014It is needless for me to say that your valuable medicines have great sale in this dis trict\u2014greater than any other I know of, giving great satisfaction.\t£ Robt.Laine, Melksham I can well recommend the Curative Syrup from having proved its efficacy for indigestion myself.Friockheim, Arbroath, Forfarshire, Sept.23, 1882.Dear fcir,\u2014Last year I sent y u a letter recommending Mother Seigel\u2019s Syrup.I have very much pleasure in still bearing testimony to the very satisfactory results of the famed Syrup and Pills.Most patent medicines die out with me, but Mother Seigei has had a steady sale ever since I commenced, and is still in as great demand ns when I first began to sell the medicine.The cures which have come under my notice are chiefly those of liver complaint and general debility.A cer ain minister in my neighbourhood says it is th' only thing which has benefited him and restored him to his normal condition of health after being unable to preach for a considerable length of time.I could mention also a great many other case, but space would not allow.A near friend of mine, wtio is very much addicted to costiveness, or constipation, finds that Mother Seigel\u2019s Pills are the only pills which suit his complaint.All other pills cause a reaction which is very annoying.Mother Seigel\u2019s Pills do not leave a bad after-effect.1 have much Eleasure in commending again to suffering umanity Mother Seigel s medicines, which are no sham.If this letter is of any service you can publish it.Yours very truly, (Signed) William S.Glass, Chemist.A.J.White, Esq.15th August, 1SS3.Dear Sir,\u2014I write to tell you that Mr.Henry Uillier, of Yatesbury, Wilts, informs me that he saffered from a severe form of indigestion for upwards of four years, and took no end of doctor\u2019s medicine without the slightest benefit and declares Mother Seigel's Syrup which begot from me has saved his life.Yonrs truly, (Signed) N.Webb, Mr.White.\t3\tChemist.Calae.For sale Ly W.BaUNET A O.»., 139 and 141 St.Joaeph Street, St.Koch s, and A.J White, Limited, Branch Otfioe, 67, St, James gtmfc MontroaK F.Q, The tireat Female Remedy.JOB MOSES\u2019 P'LLS.This invaluable medicine is unfailing in the cure of all those painful and dangerous disorders to which the Female constitution is subject.It invigorates the de bilitatod and delicate ;
