James Russell Lowell took a degree a'; the Harvard Law School in 1840, and opened an office at No.4 Court strest, Boston.He never did any business in the profession, and wrote a pleasant story on the subject for the Boston MUcellany call id \u201cThe Fiist Client.\" In connection with Robert Carter, an eccentric genius, now deceased, Mr.Lowell commenced the publication of a magaz ne called the Pioneer, which was handsom dy printed and illustrated.Among the contributors to this magazine were authors who have since become famous ; but the editors, who were also proprietors, having no business experieuce or capacity, failel, only three numb ira of the work bung quently, in 1842, Lowell\u2019s, Nathan Hale a magazine ca'Ud the for which Lowell was a contributor.This was an able journal, and had amoug its contributors numerous remarkable men.The Îiriucipal writers we'e the two Everetts x>well, William W.Story, and the editor, who himself wai a man of marked ability.The Miecellany faded after a volume had been printed.The reason for this is given by Edward E.Hale, in the preface to one of his remarkable works : \u201cThe misfortune ol .lie Miscellany, I suppose, was that its publishers had no capital.They had to reçoit to the claptrap of fashion plates and other en gravings, in the hope of forcing an immediate sole upon perrons who, ca-ing for fashion plates did not care for the literary character of the enterprise.It gave a happy escape pipe, however, for the high spirits of some of us who had just left college ; and, through my brother\u2019s kindness, I was sometimes permitted to contribute to the journal.\u201d GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY GOING WEST.2.00 P.M.\u2014Lightning Expro-*» will leave Point Levi for Richmond aud points East and West, arriving in Montreal at 8 00 PM., in time to connect with Night Express going West.8.30 P.M.\u2014Night Fxpresb tor Richmond.Sherbrooke, Island Pond, Gorham Lewiston, Portland, Montreal, and points East, West, South-West and North -West.QUEilEC CIHTRfiL îlÉlüiïAÏ, SUMMER ARRANGEMENTS.Commencing Monday, june 1885.Trains will run as follows :\u2014 :oih, EAST 10.15 P.M, 7.00 A.M.GOING Leaving Montreal.Arriving at Point Levi.Lightning Express leaves Montreal.8.00 A.M.\u2022\u2022 arriving at Point Levi.1.40 P.M.Mixed leaves Richmond.\t1.15 P.M.\u201c arrives at Point Levi.7.00 P M, JOSEPH HICKSON General Manager.Montreal ,July 6, 1885.J uly 7,1885.\tMad\tMxd\tFrgt.Leave Sherbrcoxe for Beauce\tA.M\t\tA.M.Jet., Levis and Quebec.\t7.45\t\t\t7.00 \t\t\tP.M.Arrive Beauce Jet\t\t\t11 ro\t\u2022 \u2022\u2022\u2022s\t4.00 \tP.M.\t\t Arrive Lovis\t\t2.10\t\u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\u2022\t\u2022 \u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022 \u201c Quebec Ferry\t\t Leave Quebec for Beauce Jet., Sberbrooke, anu New England points Ferry.I.eave Levis\t\t2.20\t\t \t1.45 215\t\t\t\t Arrive Beauce Jet\t\t4.15\t\t\tA.M.Leave Beaace Jet\t\t4.15\t\t\t6.40 \t\t\tP.M.Arrive Sherbrooke\t\t8.15\tP.M.\t3.00 Leave Levis for St.Joseph.\t\t\t3.00\t\u2022 \u2022\u2022\u2022 Arrive St.Joseph\t\t\t\t7.10\t\t \t\tAM\t Leave St.Joseuh for Lavia.\t\t\t6.00\t\t Vrrive Levis \t\t.\tio.po\t\t Grand Trunk Railway.SUMMER TRAInIrRANGEMENTS.Commencing Monday, junk 29th, Trains will leave Montreal end arrive as follows :\u2014 MONTRElL WEST.Leave.\tArrive.9.00 a.m.t Toronto.Hamilton, 1 8.00 a.m.9 OOp.m 8.45 a.m.( 4.30 p.m.1 5.00 p.m.6.20 p.m.1.00 p.m.2.00 p.m.( Toronto, Hamilton, l 8.C < London, Detroit and > I Chicago.' ,30 p.m.^\t\u201e\t111.30 am.Ottawa Express.f 8 20 p>Tni Cornwall Local.\t9.15 a.m.Vaudreuil Local.\t8.'2u a.m, Brock ville Mixed.\t6.3.op,m.Saturday Special, Vaudreuil.MONTREAL EAST.Leave.\tArrive.I Quebec, Riv.du Loup, I ^ 8.10 a.na, s Cacouna, Little Metis > 8.00 p.m.(and Portland.) 3.15p.m.Island Pond Local.12 Noon.5.10p.m.\tSt Hvacinth Local.\t8.55a.m.7.30 a m.\tIsland P Copt John * err.PHGÏMOIAN.I£00 Capt D.McKillop.WAT.DENÔIAN,- .*6CC Capt W Dalzicl.LUCERNE.\t.2T'0 Copt W S Mam.3S EWFOUNDLANDlfOO CaptCMyiius.ACADIAN.1810\tCapt F McGrath.ffhe shortest eea rente between America and Enrope being only tfve âaya between land to lanJ Liverpool, Londoodrrry, «*c and iH ont real Mail Service.From Liverpool.30 July.6 Aug.13\t\u201c 20 \u201c 27\t\u201c 3 Set t.10 \u201c 17\t\u201c 24\t\u201c \u201cl Oct.8 \u201c 15\t\u201c 22 \u201c 29\t\u201c From Vary\tSteamships.\tFrom Quebec.hlJnlv.\tSa F DIMAN.\t15 Aug.7 Aug.\tSahmatian.\t22 \u201c 14\t\u201c\tParisian\t\t29 \u201c 21 \u201c\tPolynesian.\t5 Sei t.28 \u201c\tClBCAS-SIAN.\t 4 Sept.\tSardinian.\tft *\u2022 11 \u201c\tSahmatian .\t46\t\u201c 13\t\u201c\tParisian\t\t3 Oct.25\t\u201c\tPolynesia .s\u2019.\t10 \u201c 2 Oct.\tCircassian .\t17 \u201c 9 \u201c\tSardinian.\t24 \u201c IS \u201c\tSapmatian.\t21 \u201c 23 \u201c\tParisian\t\t?Nov 30 \u201c\tPolynesian.\t14 DOMINION LO*: OF STEAMSHIPS.f !*- Running in connection wah tbo Grand Trunk Railway of Canada, Toes.|\tTi nr.VANCOUVER 5,700 } BROOKLYN\t.4.rii| OREGON.3,0 , SARNIA.8,s;-l MONTREAL.3,2>4 TORONTO.3,2 \u2022» ONTARIO.3,176 j DOMINION.3 U'l TEXAS.2.70U I QUEBEC**.2,701 MISSISSIPPI .2,m\\ SAILING\tQUEBEC EVERY SATURDAY, lor LIVERPOOL diic.t ;

Lord Salisbury has gone so far as to put up for sale the pretty villa he owns at Dieppe, where ha spent several successive season».He had called it the Chalet Cecil, from his own family name, and the statesman, deemed so overbearing in his own country, used to unbend, forget his chronic dyspepsia, and en joy simple family relaxations as soon as he was transplanted on the Norman side of the channel.The Premier is a tall, broad-shouldered man ; what hair baldness has spared he wears long, and his dark beard ia freely streaking with grey.A slightly ironical expression lurks iu the corners of his eyes and mouth.He is more harsh in his writings than in his conversation ; so that it is difficult for the foreigners who have only met him in the familiar intercourse of the Chalet Cecil, to believe io his fiery defiance at the tribune.His politeness is of the old school, and extended to any guest, whatever be his position.When performing his duties as host, his voice if geatle, at times even caressing.When entertaining Frenchmen he was the only one of his immediate party who returned the morning greeting of \u201cBon jour\u201d at the breakfast table.The others, especially hi* wife, seemed to consider this form as peculiarly irritating and irksome.Lady Salisbury is handsome, tali, and stately, slightly dogmatic, a* when she wanted to reform the morals of the harems in Con stantinople, but frank, intelligent, well read, and not without a certain reuse of humour.She speaks French perfectly, but whether from constitutional or national dislike to any tongue but her own, she sud denly and unexpectedly drops any conver ration begun in that language.Her two daughters, on the other hand, took particular pain* to entertain both the French and Eng lith visitors at the chalet.The elder ii serious, and a little inclined to be blue ; the younger, sprightly and animated, but each of them has a certain characteristic, inherited originality.Lord Salisbury has seven children.The eldest of his five sons is now 24 years old,and is, by his birth, destined to a political career, beginning with the House of Commons and ending in the House of Lords.\u201cUnfortun ately,\u201d hi* mother says, \u201che is condemned to be a peer.\u201d The second son has all the instincts and tastes of a thorough sportsman, is lull of energy and spirits, devoted to shooting, hunting, and riding, yet destined for a clergyman.He graduates for holy orders in a world of ball* and parties, at meets and races, and intends to choose a wife, not for the merits recommended by Goldsmith\u2019s Vicar, but for her beauty and elegance.Nevertheless he Swill, probably, be eventually a very fair vicar.Rather oddly, Gladstone\u2019s second sou is also a clergyman.At the chalet

American Ambassador at Vienna, Hr Kasson, has lately forwarded to his Government an interesting account of a remarkable surgical operation lately performed by Professor Billroth, of Vienna, whioh, wonderful to tell, consisted in the removal of a portion of the human stomaoh, involving nearly one-third of the organ\u2014and strange to say, the patient recovered\u2014the only successful operation of the kind ever performed.The disease for which this operation was performed was eancer of the stomach, attended with the following symptoms :\u2014The appetite is quite f>oor.There is a peculiar indescrinable distress n the stomach, a feeling that has been described as a faint \u201canyone\u201d sensation; a sticky slime collects about the teeth, especially in the morning, accompanied by an unpleasant taste.Food fails to satisfy this peculiar faint sensation ; but, on the contrary, it appears to aggravate the feeling.The eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow ; the hands and feet become cold and sticky\u2014a cold perspiration.The sufferers feel tired all the time, and sleep does not seem to give rest.After a time the patient becomes nervous and irritable, gloomy, his mind filled with evil forebodings.When rising suddenly from a recumbent position there is a dizziness, a whistling sensation, and ho is obliged to grasp something firm to keep from falling.The bowels costive, the skin dry aud hot at times ; the blood becoming thick and stagnant, and does oot circulate properly.After a time the patient spits up food soon after eating, sometimes in a sour and fermented condition, sometimes sweetish to the taste.Oftentimes there is a palpitation of the heart, and tho patient fears he nay have hear disease.Towards the last the patient is unable to retain any food whatever, as the opening in the intestines becomes close, or nearly so although tshis disease is indeed alarming, suffer* era with the above-named symptoms should not feel nervons, for nine hundred and nicety-nine cases out of a thousand have no cancer, but simply dyspepsia, a disease easily removed if treated in a proper manner.The safest and bast remedy for the disease is Seigel\u2019s Curative Syrup, a vegetable preparation sold by all chemists and medicine vendors throughout the world, and by the proprietors, A.J.White (Limited), 17, Far-ringdon-road, London, E.C.This Syrup strikes at the very foundation of the disease, and drives it, root and branch, out of the system.St.Mary-street, Peterborough, November 29th, 1881.Sir,\u2014It gives me great pleasure to inform you of the benefit I have received from Seigel\u2019s Syrup.I have been troubled for years with dyspepsia ; but after a few doses of the Syrup, I found relief, and after taking two bottles of it I feel quite cured.I am, Sir, yours truly, Mr.A.J.White.\tWilliam Brent.September 8th, 1883.Dear Sir,\u2014I find the sale of Seigel\u2019s Syrup steadily increasing.All who have tried it speak very highly of its medicinal virtues : one customer describes it as a \u201cGodsend to dyspeptic people.\u201d I always recommend it with confidence Faithfully yours, (Signed),\tVincent A.Wills, Chemist-Dentist, Merthyr Tydvil.To Mr.A.J.White.Seigel\u2019s Operating Pills are the best family physio that has over been discovered.They cfeanse the bowels from all irritating substanoes, and leave them in a healthy oondition.They cure costiveness.Preston, Sept.21st, 1833.My Dear Sir,\u2014Your Syrup and Pills are still very popular with ray customers, many saying they aro the best family medicines possible The other day a customer came for two bottles of Syrup and said \"Mother Seigel\u201d hvl saved the life of his wife, and he added, \u201cone of these bottles I am sending fifteen miles away to friend who is very ill.I have mnch faith in it.Tho sale keeps up wonderfully, in fact, one would fancy almost that the people were begine ning to breakfast, dine, and sup on Mother Seigel\u2019s Syrup, the demand is so constant and the satisfaction so great.1 am, dear Sir, yours faithfully, (Signed),\tW.Bowker.To A.J.White, Esq.Spanish Town, Jamaica, Wesrilndies, Get.24, 1882.Dear Sir,\u2014I write to inform you that I have derived groat benefit from \u201cSeigel\u2019s Syrup.\u201d Foi some years I have suffered from liver complaint, with its many and varied concomitant evils, so that my life was a perpetual misery.Twelve months ago 1 was induced to try Seigel\u2019s Syrup and although rather sceptical, having tried so many reputed infallible remedies, I determined to give it at least a fair trial.In two or three days I felt considerably better, and now at the end of twelve months (having continued taking it) I am glad to say that I am a different being altogether.It is said of certain pens that they \"come as a boon and a blessing to men\u201d and have no reason to doubt tho truthfulness of the statement.I can truly say, however, that Seigel\u2019s Syrup has come as & \"boon and blessing\u201d to mo.I have recommended it to several fellow-sufferers from this distressing complaint, and their teslimony is quite accordance with my own.Gratitude for the benefit I have derived from the excellent prepa ration, prompts me to furnish you with this un solicited testimonial.I am, dear Sir, Yours ever gratefully, (Signed),\tCegsy B.Berry, A.J.White, Esq,\tBavtist Missionary.Ilensingbam, Whitehaven, OcL Ifl, 1882.Mr.A.J.White,\u2014Dear Sir,\u2014I as for some time afflicted with piles, and w^a advised to give Mothsr Seigel\u2019s Syrup a trial, whioh I did.I am now happy to state that it has restored me to complete health.I remain, yours respectfully, 2\t(Signed) John H.Lightfoot.For sale l.y W.Buunbt k Co., 139 and 141.St.Joseph Street, St.Kochs, and

Hotel Katterskill, Catskill Mountains, August 29, 1885.\u2014When one parses down the St.Lawrence and witnesses the crowd of p\u2019eaauru seekers,who throrg its tteamers and railways, and knows that this is tbs daily experience of the whole summer season, it woul 1 seem as if the rest of the country must be utterly deserted by those who take a summer outing.How far this is from the truth is toon discovered by taking any one of the gre-t r-ilway routes which cross the region of the Catskill Mountains.There has be.n such a radical change in the stay at-home habits of well-to-do people r s to give birth and healthy life to au entirely ce-v department, tnat of the summer hot*.1 business, so that let one go where i.e will, ou seashore, river or mountain, he is sure to bud magnificent summer hotels neat-ling in every valley and perched on every crag.Tbis is peculiarly true of the Catskill ;egion whese mountain and peaks and dksolate defiles tiave been points of interest ever since they were first discovered from the deck of the \u201c Half Mcon \u201d as it floated iu its clumsey way up the Hudson, under the guidance of H^nèrak Hudson and his adveuturcus Knickerbocker compatriots, who have ever s:nce been so thoroughly identified with the land of Sleepy Hollow and the legendary haunts of Rip Van Winkle\u2019s ghostly bachaual companions.That Catskill Mountain scenery fairly divtces the honors with the Adirondacks or even tne White Hills of New Hampshire may essdy be inferred on witnessing the enormous tide of wealthy and distinguished people coming and going 10 the myriad romantic points of this chaining region, and the mammoth hotels thronged with grave business and pro fesrional men, divines, lawyers, judges nier-chant princes and railroad kings, lovely ladies and happy smiling maidens and yet happier children who frolic and dance the fleeting hours away, utterly oblivious of the coming days when school lessons and tasks will succeed the halcyon hours of summer.When one studies the character of this romantic region, it ceaai s to bs a wonder that mnltitnd.s abandon the sweltering cities for the cool uplands of the Catskil s, w h'se pure and bracing atmosphere is proof against malaria and hay fever complaints of lesser altitude ; for the whole hill district abounds in all that delights the eye of the artist, or gratifies the taste of dature\u2019s most «nthuii-artic lover, ami the apjrUman, wedded to 10Ù aud gun, discovcrs-in it a paradise.IT IS ONE OF NATURES MUSEUMS, rich in mountain peaks, rising three thousand feet above the sea, exquisite valleys dotted with gem-like lakes and threaded by pelhn id streams, abounding with the gamiest of fresh water fish, picturesque waterfal\u2019s, wooded hills, whose cedar and spruie forests impregnate the air with their healing, aromatic odors, and conceal within their umbrageous reoesses treasures of game, from quail and woodcock to canvas backs and wild geese.The absolute magnificence of CakkiH landscapes is beyond the possibility of description.There is a peculiar charm in the early morning hours for whose who have the hardi hood to rise before the mu, whrn the higher peaks are just touched with gold, while all the valley below li*s iu shade, or veiled by banks of fog which hang like gossamer over all the lower landscape.As theas gradually lift or float away under the magic touch of sunlight, valley alter valley conies m sight, and at last the whole landscap e lays revealed, a va.-t exparse of emerald, gemmed with diamond lakes, while in the distance the waters of the noble Hudson wind like A SILVER RIBBON a o.g the outskirts of the lower hills, lieariog ou ns bo.om the white wings of pdeasure yachts and the tide defying steamer.Morning and evening iu tho Caiskil's arc grander mau all the fabled seems of fairy land.I do not ktow whither any unseen influence leinforceu the nituial a*tractions if thisreghn this year, but cattiin it is that such a b u n/.v of mmnur travel ueve.before bl.isel the boniLies w.th such plethoric I land p rêts and gérerons dividends as is their tenor ha] py lo'.this season.Meny cf the hotels and tnt s de homes boast of large numbers of our Canadian cousirs as inmates, drawn frem their northern homes by the fame of the pic-tur< sque régi m which is traversed by the New Vo k, Ontario and Western Railway, and which is so easily reached on the north over the lin s cf the Delaware and Hudson Cana.Company s railroads, via., Troy, Saia-totta, etc.4'urreiit Notes.(London Canadian Gazette, 20th August.) Tne Marchione?s cf Lansdowne has.we hear, gone on a visit to the Earl and C< unless of Winterton, ct Shiilinglce Park, Sussex Ou the termination of her stay in Sussex, the Marchiomas will pay a few virits'-n Scotland acc unpnnied by tne Earl of Kerry and Lord Charles Fitzmaur.ee.The Queen has been pleased to approve Mr Wendall A.Anderson as Consul-General for the British North American Province!, to re side at Montreal, for the United Statsa of America.Mr Courtney, the Deputy Finance Mm iaterof the Dominion, sails for Canada, we understand, on September 17th.His de panure has keen somewhat delayed by bis serious illness, but thanks to the skill and at tention of his medical attendant, Mr.G Buckston Browne, he is now making most rapid progress towards recovery, and hit friends will be glad to hear that it is expect ed he will be quite restored to health before leaving this country.Mr.Thomas Ritch e, wriciog to the Pall if all Gazette, expresses some surprise aud 1e gret that in the Queen\u2019s speech on the pro rogatioa cf Parliament no reference was made to the successful suppression of the revolt in the North-West Territories.\u201cOf course, says Mr.Ritchie, \u201cwe Canadians are tco sensible to entertain for a moment the idea that any slight whatever was intended by the omission.\u201d Scill some of the more sensitive colonists, he imagines, may feel a little chag-ricei at this oversight on tbe port of Her Msjesty's advisers.No diubi some such allusion as that referred to woald have been appie.iated by Canadisns.We are inclined, dowever, to view its absence with some satisfaction ratner than not.It is surely no slight evidence of Canada\u2019s growth in national inde- Ki.dmce that sob erious a trouble should have eu piompriy and successfully coped with without any appeal to tho Imperial Government for assistance in the task.The fact tba\u2019 it was thus found possible confident'y to 1 ave Canada to deal with the emergency h-rself, removed the necessity for any re-lerence to the subject iu the Queen\u2019s speech, and surely this state of things should afford gratification to the patriotic Canadian, rather than matter for regret.Several of our Canadian contemporaries had been dealing at some length with an elaborate manifesto which recently reached them from tbis ccnntry.This document purpsrts to come from the British Federation Association, and sketches out a brief constitution for a central or federal Parliament to meet in London, consisting of some 640 members, of whom 214 would represent the Colonies.The manifesto bears the signature Beaconsfield A Co., of Mantua and Montfer-rat, and Colonists are invited to send delegates to a conference to be held in Exeter Hall next year.So little is anown of the \u201cBritieh Empire FeJeration Association\u201d (which is not to be confounded for one moment with the Imperial Federation League) on this side of the Atlantic, that we can only imagine a foolish practical joke has bien perpetrated upon our coutemporsnes.The impracticability of the scheme submitted for their consideration is in itself almost sufficient to warrant this inference.OPINION OP THE PEOPLE.(To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.) .Sir,\u2014In almost every n wsp iper wc take up we are cxliur.ed to cleanse o ir streets and houses in order that if tne ch lera, smnll-pjx, or auy other disease should visit us ve may lie prepared to fight it to the best advant>g \u2022.It was declared at fie la*t Council irejt'ii^ by the chairman of the Health Comm ttec that everything had been done that was poi-sible to meet the expected visit, but that I deny as there is at the present time a very large number of pigs kept cont'ary to la v in localities where the houses are already too clore by half and a\u2019l crowded with inmates almost to suffocation, pigs being in some cares within a few feet of the beJ-room windows, and still more pigs being brought up h»Te almost every day.It seems to me that the Htalth Commi'tee are d'item in d to iynore the fact altogether, as the chairman has been notified and actually t .ok f'owti th at.triner t in writing ; also the polce auri.o ities hava bien informed of the case, but no action 'aken in the matter.Now, if the fe v 1 .tr-utse.vu>g persons who are doing their best to ward off the expected scourge are to bs subjected to this intolerable nuisance it would bicn\u2019y fair for the Corporation to send up a tew bane\u2019s of carbolic acid or some other disinfectant to the pig keepers to sprinkle thiir pigs and sties, otherwise if the di.-e se breaks out tbe consequence will be something fearful.Respectfully, Resident.Quebec, 31st Aug., 1885.(To the E J :«î rr-wri.-y ^.r.o DElTwARE & HEM Canal Company\u2019s Railroads.SARATOGA LINE TO CtTUFtE ©tor Coughs.Colds.Catarrh, Bronchitis and Lung Diseases.LEBEAULT\u2019S Pectoral PASTE Knp» (h» volet tlwtyt In t perfectly eletr title.LEBEAOLT, drain, 03, Reaumur Str.PARIS.S«ld bj illCbtsiiti.April Saratoga, Troy, Albany, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, AND ALL POINTS SOU1H AND EAPT.FTJBUsXO 3WOTXOE.CITY TREASURER'S OFFICE, City Hall, 11th August, 1885.Fast Train* leare Montreal : 7.30 n III \u2014Fast Day Express, Wagner i.ov «1 in.L)rawing.Rooinl'Car attachedf for Saratoga, Troy and Albany and New York, at 9.00 p.tn.îs.4*l II 111 \u2014Night Express\u2014Wagner\u2019s Ele-\",IU* gant Sleeping Car runs through to New York without change, arriving in New York at 7.30 next morning.A&'ThU Train makes close connections at Troy and Albany, with Sleeping Car Train for Boston, arriving at 9.30 a.m.New York Through Mails and Express earned via this Line.Information given, and iickets sold, at all Grand Trunk Offices, and at the Company\u2019s Off ce, 143, St.James Street, Montreal.W8 BURDICK, CHAS.C Me FALL, General Pass\u2019r Agen,, General Agent, Albany, N.Y.\tMontreal.July 31, 1885 \" îÜ 1 .^rmTTT^ jrr_rr-r-E CENTRAL VERMONT R.R.It is stated, on apparently good authority, that there is some likelihood of the Imperial Federation League organizing next year a formai conference on the subject of Federation, to which every depend* ncy and state of the Empire will ba invited to send repreden-tativea.Mr.Arthur Laurence Haliburton, C.B., Director of Supplies and Transport, who has been promoted to the dignity of a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath (Civil Division), is a son of the late Mr.Thomas Cuandler Haliburton, formerly judge of the Supreme Court of Nova Scctia, sometime M P.for Lauuctston, author of \u201cSam Slick,\u201d &c.Arrivals of Canadian cattle at London, Liverpool and Glasgow have been on a liberal scale, aud though the stale stock left over from the last two weeks has been pretty well worked off, prices have not advanced appre ciably.In London, on Monday, as much as 7£d.per lb.was quoted for prime Canadian bullocks, but the market closed badly, the supply (800 head) being in excess of the demand.At Liverpool about 500 Dominion cattle met a very indifferent trade, the offer ings of Scotch and Irish grass-fed stock being much heavier.In Manchester slow ttade was also experienced.Taking the general tons of reports to hand, the quotations for cattle show a slight improvement, but values for sheep are weaker.Mr.Chaplin satisfactorily disposed of the questions taised in the House of Commons last week, jurt before prorogation, by Mr.Albert Grey, as to the importation of United States cattle into th's country via Canada.Mr.Grey has apparently been ltd to believe that cattle were constantly admitted into tbe North-West of Canada from the United States without any quarantine.Our readers are aware how far tbis is from being the case.Not loeg since we quoted the terms of the older if the Canadian Privy Council upon the poiot, and it has again and again betn shown iu these columns that all possible precautions arc being taken by the Dominion authorities against the importation of diseate from the States.Their action iu this matter cannot be too warmly approved.George Greig, of Stonehaven, offers, on be half of friends, to one or two agricultural labouring families from Kincardineshire, a loan of from £100 to £200 to assist them to start fanning in Canada.In his announcement on the subject in the Aberdeen Free Press Mr.Greig gives particulars as to the conditions upon which the loans will be grauted, and cf the facilities available in Canada fir obtaining land.The offer may doubt-ItBi be tra;ed to the excellent example set by Lady Catbcart.Tne social os well as the commercial in* j creation 1627, British Noblemen in Other Lauds.(From the Philadelphia Press.) Count Taaffe, prime minister of Austria, who name appiars prominently in the meeting of the Emperors of Austria and Russia at Kremsier, is, properly speaking, a subject of Queen Victoria.He is a peer of In land, bring eleventh Viscount Taaffe, creation d»t ng 1628.His mother is a princess of Batzenheim Kegentz, a id his wife a daughter of the noble house of Csaky.In language, appearance and manner there is very little trace of the Irish gentleman of long descent in Count Taaffe, but he is only one of many distinguished scions of Eiiu who have won eminence \u201cin the gay s?rvice of the Aus trt.au realm.\u201d Count Taaffe is not the only British nobleman who is a citizen of another Three Scotch peers pursue the even of their way indifferent to the threatened abolition of the house of lords.One is the Marquis Bandini, a high noble of Italy, residing in Rome, who is also tenth Earl cf Newburg, creation 1660 ; the second is Baron Reay, gentleman of the chambers to the King of Holland, who is eleventh Karon Keay, creation 1628.The third is John Contie Fairfax, M D., American citizen, residing in Maryland, who, if he chooses, can be recognized as eleventh Baron Fairfax, Professional pretension is often wrong by dogmatic rules, while common seme is content to be right without them.This is pre-eminently true as regards the science of medicine ; and the superiority of a cortimon sense practice over the cut-ind-dried system of the mere slaves of precedent has been abundantly established by tbe success of Holloway\u2019s wan'd renowned remedies Tbis extraordinary man is especially appre elated in Spain and in all parts of South America.The Spanish people know that his preparations will cure, with entire certainty, what are usually termed hopeless coses.Immense success has attended tbe tue of the Pills in the violent fevers and severe and dangerous bowel complaints more or less prevalent in all those parts during tbe summer and autumn.In fact, their operation in disorders of tbis kind is little short of miraculous, oignor Jose Martinez, a gentleman from Havana, recently arrived at Cadiz, bas stated through tbe press that on tbe voyage be was attacked with malignant fever, accompanied with vomiting, purging, aud terrible pain and constriction of the bowels.Tbe ship\u2019s physician deemed him past recovery, and.as a last resort, a box of Holloway\u2019s Pills was taken from the captain\u2019s medicine chest, and a dose administered to the sick man.From that hour, according to his own account, he began to convalesce, and before the vessel entered the harbour of Cadiz he was quite well.Facts like Ibis render arguments unueceasary, and with such facts the journals of Mexico, Brazil, Central America, Peru, Chili, Buenos Ayres, and all Spanish America literally teem.Nor is the reputation of the Ointment, as a means of eradicating blotches B- IN BRONZK LETTERS.NONE OTHER GENUINE.December It 1884.m wAfri-Lm-dAw.PUBLIC NOTICE 18 HEREBY GIVEN that the Asssismetat Books lor tbe following Wards of the City of Quebec, viz.:\u2014St.John, St.Lewi», Palace, Champlain, Montcalm, St.Peter, Jacques Ca-tier and St.Roch s have been signed by the Asses: o's of the *aid City, and are now deposited in tho office of tbe unde'signed, and that the tai i hoiks will be open to all persons interested, evr ry day from 10 A.M.to 3 o\u2019clock P.M., (Sundays and holiday?excepted), for and during three weeks from THUBSDAY, the 13th of August, to THURSDAY, tbe 3rd of September next.After that date no complaint will ba hrard, and the books on no consideration will be mo dified.Any one who shall deem himself rggneved by a\u2019iy entry made in the\u2019aid Assessmeut Rril, shall make complaint before the Recorder\u2019s Court n writing, and ueder oath, taken either before a Justice of the Peace or a member of the City Council, or be ore the Clerk of the said Recorder\u2019s Court.Tho com-.'hint shall bo lodged within the said time in the office of the Recorder\u2019s Court, and tbe said Clerk shall give notice in the newspapers as hereinbefore set forth of the place, davs tnd hours in which the 1 eco'det\u2019s Court will hear the complaints and decide on the merits of their complaints.After such date 110 complaint will be heard and for uo consideration will the books ba changed.C.J.L.LAFRANCE, City Treasurer.August 12,1885.IST O T I O IE , To Cartors and Tradosmon, concerning their Vehicles, and to Dog Owners.THE MEMBERS OF THE POLICE Force have received instructi ms to report for prosecution, \"without delay,\" all persons exercising the occupation of Carters, Traders and others having no numbers for the present year, and all owners or possessors of Dogs who inca the fint of May last have not taken.a cense for the present year.L.P.VOHL, Chi f of T olice June 25,1585.AIERICM MTHMCITE All Sizes, from the following Mines :\u2014 WILKESBARRE, LACKAWANNA, PITTSTON, SCRANTON.\u2014 FOR SALE BY- X2M23XA 'WXIA.XLr-, ARTHUR STREET.August 13, 1885.\tjn2 SAFE USE OF STEAM !
