Aogo*t 22, 1885.___22,24,26,23 D ASK YOUR GROCER -FOR- I.April 23, 1885.\tFm p ilio fashion which prohibits British writers from dealing with social questions in a broad and natural way.The French writers have no restrictions placed on their work ; they may treat, if so minded, the most delicate topics in any way they please, but the English audiences will not stand anything of that sort, from their writers of fiction.This prohibition, Guida thinks, is a real check on genius, and accounts, in a large measure,\tfor\ttho\tweakness and\tnamby- pambyism of the novel of the present day.The English reader insists that everything treated in Ins fiction must be respectable and able to endure the ordeal of the registry office or the church, and all indelicacies\tof\texpression and\tmotive must\tbe\tsuppressed.Guida\tlamentB this, and proclaims the advantage which her French brethren and sisters of the pen have\tover\tthe\tEnglish.Guida,\tthough she does not say so, would doubtless welcome tho days which furnished rcad-ders to Richardson and Apura Benn, but after all, is it not better for the men and women who seek -relaxation in the perusal of tales and romances, (hat clean books should be placed in their hands, instead of such productions as Guy Mont-passant and Zola and Daudet turn out by the heap ?People read novels because they want amusement of some light airy character.They do not read fiction to have their passions excited, and their love of decency and morality lessened.Guida mistakes the object of the true novel though she is forty-five years of age, and has written a dozen stories herself.Her general opinion of the English novel of today is thus expressed :\u2014 \u2022^Bourgeois feeling tinges the whole of English fiction as jaundice tinges the human body ; its polities are the most part a mild radicalism, and its ethics are those of a moderate evangelical preacher ; it reflects a certain humanitarianism, very courteous leaning toward such social* ism as places Dumas at the best end.But of every attempt to represent the various phases of English society, the languor and excitability, the haste and ennui, the mutable passions and the sated appetites, the wit and the weariness of it all, there is not a trace in the English novels of tho last decade ; there is not a sign that any one of them ever saw the inside of a great London salon or of a great English country house.I do not say that they have never done so ; I only say that they en tirely fail to represent society if they do know it.There is more suggestion of English society, as it is, in Mr.Mallock's \u2018New Republic,\u2019 which is not a novel, than in all the English novels of his time.\u201d The arraignment is, at least, amusing.But weak as our novels are, we must still believe that they are more wholesome, and serve their purpose better than if they dealt in all the nameless crimes of the calendar and sparkled in lewdness and social debauchery.Our fiction is not as pure as it might be, but Guida would lower it to the very depths and allow our artists in letters to paint the product of licentiousness in pigments of the most seductive and alluring kind.We may well be spared the coming of such a day.John.Ti ey report coniit\u2019era\u2019 D anxifly tn l aipatience, howevir, on Uv- pait of He r-»;-lent.?at th-: s'ow picgieu made on the ler pair.0\t00\ta\t0 00 Turkeys do .i 50 a\t400 Ducks, Jo.0 75 a\tl 00 Partridge, lier brace.0 00 a\t000 Potatoes, pe\tbushel.0 35 a 0 40 Oats,\tdo\t34 lbs.0 40 a 0 42$ Salt Butter, per lb.0 14 a\t0 15 Fresh do do .0 1G a\t0 18 Do do do (prints).0 20 a\t0 25 Cheese, per lb.0 00 a\t0 10 Eggs, per dozen.OlGa 0 18 Maple Sugar, per lb.0 0G a\t0 (9 Apples, per brl.2 50 a\t3 00 Lemons, per\tcase.12\tOil\ta 12 00 Uranges, per\tcase.8\t00\ta 10 00 Onions, i>er case ( Port).4 00 a\t4 50 Hay, por 100 bdls.10 00 a 11 00 Straw, do .3 00 a\t400 Wood, per cord (2 ft.6 in.2 75 a\t4 CO \"\t**\t(3 feet).2 80 a\t4 75 -WHICH IS UNRIVALLED FOR______ Size, Style, and X«ocality in Quebec, Has just been completely transformed and modernized throughout, being refitted with new system of drainage and ventilation.Passenger Elevator, Electric Bells and Lights, àc.In fact all that modern ingenuity and pracfcal science can devise to promote the comfort and con veniecce of gaaat*, has been supp'ial.The ST.LOUIS is eligibly situated in the immediate vicinity of tho most delightful and fashionable promenades, the Goverucr\u2019s Garden, the Citadel, Plsca d\u2019Annei.Dutferin Terrace and the Esplanade, and contains accommodation for 600 c nests.(II4TE il\u2019 SAINT LOUIS HOTEL COUP ANY, ¦Win,LIS IRITSSELL, PRESIDENT.Almost 5, 1835.PROPRIETORS.Cm STANSTEAD WESLEYAN COLLEGE, 1T-A.KT s*x»ia A.X>, Rev.I).KENNEDY, S.T.D.,\t- Miss LOUISE H.KELSEY, B.A., .c*.Governor and Principal.- - - - Preceptress.Will Re-open September 9th, 1885.LEATHER MARKET.Spanish Sole, No.1, per b.fO 2G\ta Do No.2.0\t24\ta Slaughter Sole, No.1.0\t30\ta Harness Leather.0\t30\ta Wared Upper.0\t40\ta Buff and Pebbled Cow, per foot 0 13\ta Patent Cow.0\t15\ta Enamelled Cow.0\t15\ta Calfskins, heavy, per lb.0 60\ta Do light.0\t45\ta Splits, small.0\t23\ta Do.large.0\t24\ta Sheepskins Rrssets, per lb.0 35\ta French Calfskins, per lb.1 10\ta HIDES AND SKINS Greenand Inspected per lOOlbs, No.1.f 8 00 a Do ¦ do do No 2 7 00 a Cured and inspected, per 100 lbs Sheepskins, each.Calfskins, green, per b.Wool, per lb.0 28 0 26 0 32 0 35 0 45 0 15 0 16 0 16 0 65 0 50 0 25 0 26 0 40 1 40 9.00 a 0 75 a 0 124a 0 25 a 8 00 7 00 9 50 0 90 0 15 0 30 Reported by T.Ë Unnrahaii & Co.NEW YORK~STOCKS August 27, 1885.This popular institution, open to ladies and gentlemen offers superior facilities for a thorough education in Ialtei*a,x*y, dVr-txaloeal saxid.Art Studies.THE LITERARY DEPARTMENT embraces the Common English, Teachers\u2019 Prépara tory, Academic and Collegiate Courses to graduation.Careful instruction in French ana German.THE MUSICAL DEPARTMENT is under the diiection of Prof.O E CRANZ a musician and t eacher of distinguished ability, and provides a thorough and extended course of instruction m Instrumental mmic and Vocal culture.THE ART DEPARTMENT affords excellent facilities for Drawing and Painting.Tba Institution also imparts a complete course in the Comuekoul Bhakches with instruction in Telegraphy and Phonography., **\u2018Wge and co nmodious.a'zd will re-open with extensile repairs and with improved heating appliances, securing the health and comfort of all.No more delightful and healthful locanty in the Dominion for obtainin;

Oi.e:.Tn*y are Canadian Pacific b nla.The art oi last session authorize! the irsoiug cf $3.5,000,0JO worth of first nurtgag i bonds of me company.Of these $20,600,000 wer h were retsioed by the Government as co lateral atcurity for toe debt ov e l the Government by the company.T:ie remainder were to be placed upon tue mar-ke s en i the procstus devoted to the equipment if the line.A* se.uriVy for the recent, loon of $5.000,000, the Government rctiined _,000 000 wor»h of bonds, or their proceed'.We hf.d no «¦xpectrt oa that our bouda wor.l 1 sell so readily and at fo high a figure, aud we borrowed the $5,000,000 for a year to supply us with fundi until they wire sdd.The Governimnt not expect ng the liouds wi.nld reach aim; s: par value, retained $8,-000,000 of the bonds in order to have ample security for the $5,000,000.\u201cThe bonds were placed on the market and disposal ol at 95.Tne statfm nt of 77i« G/o5e th: t tbs $8,000.000 worth cf the bonds h.!d by the Goven meet have not yet bern pit on market is incorrect.The entire $15,000.000 worth hive been sold.By the t nr s of » he act, the proceed* of $8,000,000 would have to be retarisd by the Government as aecurity for the loan, acd to relesse that amount we will (rive the Government a check on Bari g Brother» Rr $5,000,000.\u201d \u2018How about the Globe's statement that the practical remit cf the operation is to place addL.onal liabilities to tho extent of $3,000,-000 \u2022 n Canada ?\u201d \u2018Teat is another of the fallacies of The Globe's nitiil*.I s argument is that be-caosi ti e Government\u2019s security for its loan ia wo th $3,000,000 more loan its loan, it will lose $3,000.000 by taking lack its loan and rc\u2019euiiug the security.The reply i* obvii us.The.$8,000,000 worth of fcouds it holds i* not its property, they belong to us, and the Government merely hilds them aa security for $5,000 000.Their release will not effect th* Government ia the slightest tiegr* e.\u201c i ha Globe might have made a point, which th- ugh a poor o.e, would have b.en much br.t-r tlatn tuo ones it aid make.By the te>n>s of t ie Act of last se^lii n the Govern-m n: exrxci-ea a supirv sion over tie disposal of the j roettds of îtiese bonds ; but by the high rite at wbi:h we have di-p >.e 1 of them, we have secured some $2,000,000 more thau the amount w-.ieh tae GiV.rnm nl ian cou-tr-L But the i ublic need n t be ilanned on that account.$ir John told Mr.Drinkwaier at Riviere du Loup yeitordiy that when the Canadian Pac fie cou es to the Govtrument, aud asks that a pot tun cf the proceeds be advanced, it will have to satisfactorily account for tne expe.dituie of tne aurplus two millions befi re it secure* any.\u201d \u201cHas the Government accepted the return of the loan ?\u201d \u201cThere will be no difficulty about that We will give them a check for $5,000,000 on Baling Brother», London, acd in that way tue loan will be repaid.\u201d Wasliiouable Wedding» Newport, R.L, August 25\u2014The marriage this morning of Miss Alice Ccats, daughter of JamdS Costs, of Providence, of the firm cf J.& P.Coats, of Scotland, to Mr.Theodore Frel nghuyst n, s n of the late Secretary of State, was the leading event of the eeuson here.The fact that the bridegroom haa re ceutly lest his father prevented any extended preparations, bat tne arrangements at tue house were nevertheless very elaborate.The wedding ceremony took place at the Carey villa, occupied by the bride\u2019s parents.The dorai decorations were magnificent.Every part of the house was beautifully decorattd.Passing by the apartments on the first door of the cottage, decorated throughout ia the most artistic way with paint and dower, the guests travers*'! the Ion»: h «11, turned t > the right through the Louis XIV parlor and came upon the chief specimen of the dorists\u2019 art.Opposite the doorway curtained by grape vines was a large bay windew, tcreen*d by large palms and tropual plants forming a dark rich background for tho pink and white dorai chime of bells suspended from the deep tringe of piok and white sweet peas.For boll ropes were substituted pink and white satin ribbon, looped back to the lower screes», the whole bring danked by archicg palms hanked in fancy foliage plants.Around the large paintings were dorai pieces.Below in every m ok and corner were coatly plants, while the mantel and mirror were re-splendent with Areca Lutescens, over which trailed the golden palm Gloxinia* aad I\u2019a.ai-Hora Princes in graceful festoons.Without clumps of palms ou.de a giateful shade.Among the guest* were ex-Pre*ident Ar thur, Judge and Mrs.Davis nee Frelinghuy sen.Mis* Lucy Frelinghuysen, Mrs.J.\\V.Haven, Mr.and Mrs.George G.Frelinghuy sen.Mr.George Bancroft and a great many o'her distinguished relatives and frieoda.The wedding pr-amts were not shown, but it is known that they included diamonds from Mr.and Mrs.Coats and the bridegroom, a maguificent lot of ailverware, and bric-a-brac of every description.The bride received from her father a very large cheque.Tne bride entered the billitird-room resting on the arm of her father, who gave her away.Her dress was of rilk muri n, cut low in the neck and profusely covered with Valenciennes lace.The veil was of tulle aud Valenciennes lace and was decorated with heather gathered recently on Sir Peter Coat\u2019s estate m Scotland and brought here specially for this ccca sioo.The bnd» held a bouquet of pick aud white heather.The bridesmaid* were attired in white rilk mull and striped gauze, with large silver beads for neck err aments The mother of the bride wore, mauve watered silk withdrapery of Duche-se lace and trimmed witn royal purple velvet.Mr.Frelinghuy sen\u2019s best mao a as hs bro her, Frederick Frehnghuyeec.The ushers were Hugh D.Auchtncloee, cf New York, and Penuington Whitehead, of Newark, N.J.Beneath the magnificent chime of floral bells the couple were married by the Rev.Thatcher Thayer, an ex-pastcr of the United Congregational Church Following the ceremony wa» a collation.In'.he atVrm ou the couple left for Boston en route lor New York, whence they will *&1 m Saturday on the \u2018\u2018Etruria\u201d fo 1 Scotland, end pa*» tho hone> ir.oou on Sir ( Peter Coats\u2019 estate, Chess Editors\u2019 Association.Thi* organization is formed for the purpose of ac.vrncing a knowledge of che*s, by thejiy and p-acrice Chts*, ot ell amuecmer.t*.is the most rational and intellectual ;
