Mr.John riskes work on \u201cThe Discovery and Spanish Conquest of America,\u201d which is to be published this autumn.No More Broken Glass.A well-known scientific review says that to prevent the

Street Railway scandal took place this morning in the Mayor s office.Several Aldermen were present.Mr Wm.Laidlaw, Q.C., one of tbc solicitors for the Kiely-Everett syndicate, came in and urged upon the Mayor the immediate preparation of the agreement for the lease of the railway.He insisted that there should bo no more unreasonable delay.It was unfair to the tenderers.The Mayor and Acting Solicitor Mowat protested that the conditions were such that a little delay could hardly be com-nlained of.Mr.Laidlaw then became angry L,\u201el talked very loudly.The Mayor said that Mr.Laidlaw bad promised to commence criminal proceedings against E.A.Macdonald on thestrength of the recent exposures, but he had not done so.Mr.I^aidlaw denied this and said that they bad promised only to be guided by Mr.Osier\u2019s opinion.I he discussion continued, becoming warmer every moment until Mr.Laidlaw exclaimed that he would set the honesty of Noel Marshall against that of Mayor Clark any day.Mayor Clarke thereupon walked over to the lawyer and shaking his fist in his face ordered him out of lus office.Some warm remarks followed and for a moment it looked as if the Mayor and the lawyer, who are Ixith over six feet high, womd come to blows.This was avoided, however, but as Mr.Laidlaw' was leaving thn office the Mayor said: \u201cI am informed on the best authority that Mr.Lahllaw himself

his home in St.Martin\u2019s this morning at the age of 88 years.He was born in Corn wallis, N.S., his father being Asahee Bill He preached his first sermon at the house of William Eaton, in Lower Canard, N.S., in the fall of 1827.He retired from active work in 1886.NOVA SCOTIA.Halifax, Aug.5\u2014The flagship \u201cRelier-oplion\u201d will leave to-morrow at 10 o clock for Sydney, St.George's Bay, Nfld., and other pérts.She will he away about three weeks.The \u201cCanada\" will remain here for the purpose of changing her guns.The new guns ore coming out in the troopship \" Tyne.Consul-General Trye, representing the Governor of Massachussetts, called upon London, August 5\u2014Parliament was prorogued to-day to October 24th.The Queen\u2019s Speech closing the session, after alluding to the amicable relations existing between Great Britain and the other Powers, made a brief reference to the treaties that had been concluded with Portugal aud Italy regarding territory in Africa.Continuing, the Speech said :\u2014 I have made proposals to the President of the United Steles looking to the submission to arbitration of the differences between Great Britain and the United States, in re gard to the seal fishery in Behring Sea.The negotiations are far advanced but have not yet been concluded.The French Chambers have not yet ap proved the agreement between myself aud the French Republic with reference to arbitration of certain differences which have arisen concerning Newfoundland, which agreement was signed during the present year.I am glad that yon have been able to de vote a considerable sum of money to the mi ligation of the harden which the law of com pulsory education has imposed upon the poor Krtion of my people.e various measures which you hav adopted in recent years to secure the obser vance of the law in Ireland and to improv the general condition of that country, hav* resulted in a marked abatement of agraria» offences and in a considerable advance prosperity.The steps taken to cope with the distress threatened in Ireland have been effectual in averting a famine.You have also passed a beneficent measure dealing permanently with the congested districts in Ireland, which, it is hoped, will, by fostering agriculture and stimulating the fishing industry, contribute largely to the prevention of similar dangers in the future.The measures which you have passed for the improvement of laud, with respect to factories and workshops and savings banks, and for the preservation of the public health, will.I am convinced, conduce to the comfort and well being of my people.part the surrounding country come excellent reports respecting the season\u2019s crop of hay, and this despite the grave fears entertained on the subject from one to two months ago.Except in the dryest and most sandy -of land, the crop scarcely anywhere in the district of Quebec falls below the average, while in the immediate vicinity of the city, as in St.Foye, Little River, Ac., as well os all the way down the Intercolonial Railway as far os River du Loup, there is quite a heavy crop.The harvest is considerably later than usual, however, and the continuance of the present fine weather is anxiously desired for the purpose of enabling farmers to successfully save the hay.Rimouski.\u2014On Sunday last, after vespers, there occurred the solemn blessing of the tables of a bazaar at Rimouski, by His Lord-ship the Bishop, in the large room of the convent of the Sisters of Charity School, in which the bazaar is being held.The tables were splendidly furnished, and the courteous-ness aud urbanity of the ladies in charge and their assistants will no doubt largely contribute towards the success of the underteking.We are informed that a concert in aid of the same object is to take place in one of the large halls of the Seminary on Thursday, the Gth inst., and no doubt the room will bo well filled.Arrangemeuto are to be made for reduced rates to Rimouski on this occasion by the Intercolonial Railway.Canada\u2019s International Exhibition, Sr.\u2022 John, N.B.Sept.23rd to Oct.3rd.\u2014Arrangements have been completed with nearly all the railway and steamship companies for very low rates and special excursions during the time of the Exhibition.The Musical Society of St.John are making their arrangements for repeating the mammoth conceit which was given last year, on a much larger scale, and to be held in a separate building i order to avoid the crowding and noise \u201e hich was a drawback of last year.Some of the leading soloists of the UuitedStatre have been engaged for this concert.Ine Exhibition Association liave just completed their arrangements for a series of lialloon ascensions aud parachute drops, in addition to the numerous other attractions which have been engaged.Special Attention is Directed to the important underwriter»\u2019 sale on Friday of the iron steamship

guineas, is being manufactured in London for the Vatican.It is decorated with tea roses on a dull gold ground, and is varnished with vernis royal, which not only imparts an unusual brilliance to its appearance but also to its tone.The varnish is said to be made of the same materials with which the old Cremona violin-makers covered the sounding-board of their instrument*.The secret has been lost for centuries, and its discovery forms the groundwork of a play sai l to furnish M.Co quclin with one of his best pathetic charac ter*.Bm ne-Jones has a piano decorated in dull green witl\\au allegory
