prevent Russia from securing an open port for the terminus of its Irans-Stbertan railway.The reply, while friendly in tone, is firm, and indicates no intention on the part of Japan to abandon \"ny of the concessions made by China.It is indicated that Russia\u2019s wishes in this matter can be submitted as a matter of subsequent treaty negotiation between Russia and Japan directly.New York, May 4\u2014A //ern/d special from St.Petersburg suj s No definite reply has yet been received from Japan by the three protesting Powers on the subject of the annexing o fthe Liao Tung Peninsula.Declarations have been received from the Mikado\u2019s Government, however, somewhat mollifying the uncompromising attitude it lias hitherto maintained, hut these are considered insufficient.The three allied Powers are deter-mined upon a full and complete withdrawal by Japan from the debated annexation.England\u2019s attitude continues to arouse the hostilities of the newspapers here.In Russian official spheres the determination is expressed that contrary to the pronosals of the EngUsh|press, Great Britain should not be allowed to take any part in the delimitation of the Russio Chincsc frontier on the Pamirs.Despatches fiom Hong Kong say that the situation in Formosa is most serious.British and German marines have been landed at Anping to protect the

May 4\u2014The morning proceedings in connection with the Clara Ford trial were devoted to an effort on the part of the defence to proving an alibi on behalf of the prisoner.A number of persons w-ere called to corroborate her assertion that she was at the Toronto Opera House on the night of the murder, but while several were willing to swear generally that she had been at the Opera House during the week of the murder, and that she was in the habit of going there on Saturday night, yet when it came to details they were not able to swear that it was on the particular night of the murder that she was there and the evidence therefore was not of great value.The rest of the morning was devoted to the taking of evidence tending to show that for several years past the prisoner had been living an honest and & respectable life.Mr.Johnston, counsel for Clara Ford, says the trial will not be through before Monday.Later\u2014The great Ford trial ended at ten o\u2019clock to night.Mr.Johnston, the prisoner\u2019s counsel, made a plea to the jury on behalf of his client, his addtess occupying nearly two and a half hours.Owing to the absence of Mr.Osier, the duty of addressing the jury devolved upon County Crown Attorney Curry.His address was a remarkably able and convincing presentation of the facte.Chancellor Boyd then charged the jury for 35 minutes.In conclusion His Lorship advised the jury that if they found the prisoner guilty, it was advisable that they should find also whether they would be disposed to find her guilty if the evidence as to the confession had been admjtted.This might assist the Court in arriving at a conclusion in the reserved case as to the advisability of the confession.The jury then retired and after being oui two hours returned with a verdict that Clara Ford was not guilty cl the murder of Frank Westwood and the prisoner was at once discharged from custody.Mr.James A.Tucker, the suspended student of Toronto University, has served

asked what authority the beadle had to offer resistance ami he was informed that it was ncconling to the President's instructions.The Registrar soon afterwards appeared and said that he would not allow Mr.Tucker to enter.Soon after Mr.Tucker proceeded to go inside, but the door was again blocked by the beadle, but Mr.Tucker entered and proceeded to tbe examination hafl but immediately returned, having presented himelf for examination at which he was refused entrance.A man named Cooper was taken in the am-bulauce'froin Smith\u2019s Hotel,Queen and Chestnut streets, this morning'to

Hotel.He retired about 11 o\u2019clock and the warning against blowing out the gas usually given to rural visitors was not thought necessary iu his ease.When the house maid went to call him at 7 30 this morning she evoked no reply ftom him and the door was forced open.Cooper was found lying in the bed in an unconscious condition, with the gas jet turned full on.A doctor was called and worked over the dying man the entire day, but was unsuccessful in his efforts to restore him ami ordered his removal to the General Hospital.Cooper cannot recover.Tne Executive Committee of the City Council

dent Zelaya yesterday called another meeting of the leading citizens.There is no doubt that a settlement has been read ed with England.The military details are being arranged by Foreign Minister Matas and British Minister Gosling.England has given' some concessions, but the amount of indemnity is uuchauged.The Government is Eileased, but the people are dissatisfied.* British Minister Gosling said yesterday : \u201cEngland has made slight concessions and has received a guarantee for the payment of the indemnity, which will be made in London.Tho Government of England ask nothing for expenses at Coriuto.Foreign Minister Mm us said it was now safe to say that a settlement had been reached and that the British marines were already embarking al Gorin to.A howling mob is rushing through the streets y\u2019elling \u201cDeath to Zelaya and his adviser».\u201d An outbreak is imminent.The troops are confined to their barracks ready for an emergency and reinforcement force* are coming from Leon.A G-oriuto, Nicaragua, special to the World says :\u2014Captain French, whom the British appointed Governor, visited Admiral Stephenson ou board the \u201cRoyal Arthur\u201d 6« noon yesterday.He afterwards returned and immediately ordered the embarkation of the greater portion of his men, only a few British marines remain on shore now.They will embark as soon as Captain French turns the town over to the Nicaraguans.Every body here is pleased.Washington, May 5\u2014According to advices received here the evacuation of Corinto by the British fleet was quietly accomplished to-day and the port

Admiral through the intermediation of Senor Fallos, of Honduras.Iu this manner Nicaragua was spared any appearance of humiliation aod friction was avoided.Nicaragra will pay the indemnity in London within the two weeks stipulated and the remaining terms of the ultimatum will be satisfactorily arranged.The Nicaraguan people appear to thoroughly understand President Zelaya, who is a man of great pluck and determination, and they have approved his course in the matter.The published statements that \u201chooting mobs\u201d were parading the streets of Managua, the Capital, shoutiug \u201cDeath to Zelaya,\u201d appear to have had no foundation in fact.Zriayais not thp man to tolerate démonstrations of that kind.He headed a revolution two years ago which overthrew an obnoxious Government in

story of Canada\u2019s financial position, that they were listening to one of Sir Leonard TILley\u2019s speeches, when that able statesman was in his palmiest days.Sir Leonard was always a sanguine man.He ever looked on the fairest side of the picture, and anything like blue ruin he never Saw, He was also always hopeful, and he had the happy knack of carrying his audience W ith him.No one understood figures better, and when interrupted he was usually at liis best, because he was ready and quick to reply, and his subject was so well mastered, even to the smallest detail, that he never encountered difficulty in answering an opponent on the Spur of the moment.The present Finance Min:ster of Canada, and Government leader of the House of Commons, was trained in the same school and under the eye of Sir Leonard, whose legitimate successor, in his rote, he is.On Friday làst he had the ear of the House.He was eloquent, he was forcible, he was tactful.He never allowed even Sir Richard Cartwright to ruffle him.He said what he had to say in an interesting way, and then he dealt with possible and probable criticisms.He showed how prosperous Canada was despite the hard times, and inspite of the fact that all the nations of the world have been and are parsing through gravecrises, financial, political, industrial and commercial.Our shewing, under all the circumstances, was good.Our imports, last year, were- a bit higher than usual, while in exports we wore able to hold our own,\u2014a statement which should not ba lightly considered.Indeed, it should have great weight, for no other country can exhibit so satisfactory a balance sheet.Mr.Foster has to ptovide for the coming fiscal year.He has cut down, materially, his paper of estimates.The pruning knife has been applied to almost every item in the various departments of the public service, the object being to economic?, but not at the sacrifice of a perfect performance of duty, so far as our necessary requirements are.In some places no saving could be made, without injury to the progress and development of the country.But the public, wo think after reading Mr.Foster s speech, will see how

positive that the desk* of the members will be ornamented, later on, with a sheet or two of Supplementary Estimates.But time, as before, will demonstrate to the people, how easy it is for Sir Richard

be made to restore the equilibrium between income and out go.They do not fall heavily on the people, though their adoption will bring in a good pot of money.The spirits makers will feel the burden most, for upon their broad shoulders is Laid, mainly, the heavy load.They are well able to carry it.Mr.Foster proposes to put an additional tax upon distilled spirits.The excise dufy on spirits now is

Miss Julia Arthur, the focXuuate young actress to whom Henry Irving has offered an engagement to \u201cplay second\u2019\u2019\u2014as the theatrical phrase goes\u2014to Miss Ellen Terry, is an American, boro in Canada.A British subject, you will say.But there is nothing at all British about Miss Arthur.Her voice and accent ring frankly American, whilst in appearance she is altogther southern.Everybody is anxious to know something of the personality and talent of the lady so s >on to tread for the first time the boards of our historic Lyceum.Miss Arthur, as I have said, is Italian-lookmg i and this not bedause she has dark, mooulight eyes and Coal black hair, but because her Very expression, sombre and fitful, is southern ; and her whole teniperament suggestive of that far-off land sung by the Mignon of Goethe.Her acting, still somewhat immature, gives promise of excellent things to come ; her voice is warm and vibrating, her earnestness undeniable.Miss Ellen Terry, in her charming, generous fashion, encourages Julia Arthur to \u201cgo on and prosper\u201d on the same territory where she long has reigned as sole queen.Well, we shall all be fonder of Miss Terry than ever, whilst extending a friendly greeting to the new comer introduced by her gracious self, aud the distinguished manager of our most important theatre.Chatean Frontenac.Improvements.It will be extremely gratifying to Quebecers to know that there is every promise of a very heavy summer travel.The Chateau Frontenac has a large proportion of its rooms already secured for the months of July and August, and for some dates in the latter month a number of people have unfortunately had to be refused for want of room.It is hoped that the business done at the Frontenac this year under Mr.Journet\u2019s capable and careful management will be such as to warrant the proprietors in enlarging the house before another summer Mr.Journet has made arrangements Montreal for a first-class orchestra, which will play during the season at dinners from 6 to 8 o\u2019clock, and in the café restaurant from 8.30 to 11 o\u2019clock.The orchestra is composed of a violincello, two violins, piano and fiute, and will he conducted by Mr.Prume.The café-restaurant, which is to be opened upon the Parisian style, is on a level with Dufferin Terrace and ought to do a very large summer business.If it is liberally patronized, there will be also a café in winter in the coffee room of the hotel.Meanwhile, fur the summer season, both dining room and coffee rooms w ill be used for dining purposes, thus enabling the guests to be dined without the delays necessitated heretofore when the hotel w\u2019as crowded.It is also proposed to have a light dance or hop every Monday night throughout the season in the dining room from 8.30 o\u2019lock to midnight.In fact nothing will be spared that can potsibly a Id to tie popularity of tiie hotel.â^oA'iîING NBWS.EVEN FOOTBALL.Prof.Culin, of the Museum of Archaeology ~oî the University of Peonsylvania, states that football originated with the Chinese \u2014.Vif-icaukct Sentinel.FOOTBALL MORTALITY.The English football season erds, and the \\Vedmin*ter Gazette publishes its annual mortality list.The \u201coill\u201d shows that during the season there were twenty deaths from injuries received on the football field, and that over a hundred and fifty legs, arms and collar bones were broken, lesides many cases of concussion of the brain or spine, paralysis, kneecaps split, peritonitis and hundreds of minor casualties.BICYCLING.Cuicaoo, May 4 -Arthur E Smith, in the employ of the (Joveroinent mail sirrice, left at three oc\u2019look this morning for New York on a bicycle, his object being to break the record of six days ami ten hours lie will go by wuy of Buffalo and does not expect to get any steep until he reaches that city.YACHTING.Nkw York, May 4\u2014The steel schooner ' Pris.-ilU\u201d dnigne l by Carter Smith as a sloop to defend the \u201cAmerica\u201d cup in IS85, leaves at noon to-day for Cleveland, the home of.her new owners, Dr.Beeman aud Geo.0.VV.Worthington.She has been greatly changed.A large figure head has been given her.Her beam has been cut down to 57 feet,10 feet less than her original rig,and her bowsprit has also been shortened considerably.A complete electric lighting sys tem hae been put in her, the power being furnished by a storage battery which ia charged by a dynamo in a four horse power naptha launch aboard the boat.The boat will st >p At Quebec, Montreal and Toronto, and at the latter place the party will be joigned by Charles Wesley and Commodore Homer of the Buffalo Yacht Club.Capt.Henry Baker, one of the most experienced sailing masters on the Laker, in in charge of the boat, having a crew of six Norwegians under his command.ATHLETIC, LosDoti, May 4\u2014The Athletic Committee hf Oxford University haVe submitted to the Athletic Committee of Cimbridge University lot: the tetter\u2019s Consideration, the correspondence between Oxford and Cambridge and American Universities itt regard to An Inter national Collegiate Athletic contest, to take phk:e during the coming summer.COURT TENNIS.LoNDO.t, May 4\u2014The third and finish stage of the Court Tennis match between Latham And Saunders was played at Brighton tO-day and resulted in a victory for Latham, who wins the Championship.The final score Stood :\u2014Latham, 7 ;

also a nice little recitation by Miss aggie Baker, daughter of the Rev \\V M Baker.The proce dings were brought to a close by the Rev Mr Baker proposing a heirty vote of thanks to the Chairman and performers, which was carried with acclamation, and was suitably acknowledged by the Chairman, on behalf of the performers and himself.The proceeds of the entertainment, which amounted to the satisfactory sum of £8 2s 6d, were handed to the captain in aid of the Liverpool Seamen\u2019s Orphan Institution.Since the \u201cLabrador\u201d was here last season there hA8 bèen a considerable change in her staff of officers, many of the old faces being now missing.Her present Purser formerly occupied that position on b >ard the ss \u201cVancouver.\u201d while Mr Welsh, formerly Chief Steward of the \u201cLake Superior,\" is now performing the duties of that office on board the \u201cLabrador.\u201d Captain McAuley rotiorts :\u2014 \u201cLeft Liverpool, at 11.40 p m, on the 25th April.Had strong westerly winds all the way across the Atlantic.The only ice seen during the passage was four bergs between 47 and 49.Had strong headwinds up the Gulf.Passed 22 miles tiortb of Bird Kopies, but saw no ice.Had strong easterly wind up the river.Saw no inward bound sailing vessels.\u201d Mariposa\u2014The ss \u201cMariposa,\u201dCaptain Wm Cav«K arrived Loin Montreal at 11 a ir.on Saturday, and went into the Princess Louise Basin.After completing cargo she left for Liverpool yesterday afternoon at 2.30 o\u2019clock.She took on board a number of cattle al this poit for Liverpool.Qctbrc StRAJisHip Company.\u2014CARifenRE\u2014 These \u201cCaribbee\u201d arrived at New York, from the West Indies, at 9 a m last Saturday.Miramichi\u2014Tliess \u201cMiramichi,\u201d Captain A Baquet, from Montreal and Quebec, arrived at Pictou, NS, at 3 p m last Friday.Tjunipad\u2014The ss \u201cTrinidad,\u201d from New York, at 10 a m last Thursday, arrived at Her muda at 1 pm lust Saturday, Floated and Proceeded\u2014Glasgow, May 4 \u2014The steamer \u201cCircassia,\u201d which ran aground in the Clyde, near Dumbarton, yesterday, was floated this morning, and proceeded for New York.Islesworth\u2014Gibraltar, May 4 -Passed, steamer \u201cIslesworth,\u201d Garston, Iloilo, March 21, via Colombo, for Montreal.^ Lonohcrst\u2014The steamer \u201cLonghurst,\u201d from Cienfuegos, with sugar, for Montreal, called at Sydney, May 2, and left on the 3rd.After discharging cargo at Montreal, she will proceed to Quebec and load for McArthur Bros.Missing\u2014Halifax, May 4\u2014The brigantine \u201cKatie\u201d left Cow Bay several weeks ago, with a cargo of coal fot Yarmouth, aild has not since been heatd of.A schooner which sailed in company with the missing vessel reached Yarmouth some time ago.The \u201cKatie\u201d was built at Prince Edward Island in 1870, was owned by M Leblanc, of Arichat, and carri xl a crew of six men.She was insured in Halifax.It is thought that she must have foundered.Parsed\u2014Yesterday, sa \u201cParkmore,\" Boston, for Montreal;

it is so true, natural and human.A few slips of the proof reader, which in a volume of such excellent poetry is unpardonable, mars one or two of the author\u2019s most striking aud|pleasing compositions.These must be rectified in a second edition, which will, probably, be called for.Dawson\u2019s.Mgr.de Forwn-Janson.Dr.N.E.Dionne, F.R S.C., and Librarian of the Quebec Legislature, is One of our most industrious authors.His pen, which is never idle, is always devoted to some good work, generally of an historical character.His atest work is a biography of Mgr.ds Forbin-Janson, Bishop of Nancy and Primate of Lorraine, whoso career and life-work in Canada are sYetched with a sympathetic and loving hand.While in this country, this eminent divine, as Our author tells fis, in spirited language, placed at the disposal of the Roman Catholic Bishops all the resources of his purse, his eloquence and his devotion to his Church and religion.The value of his services, there ore, cannot be too highly estimated, and his whole soul was in his work.His oratory was marvellous, and his fame as a preacher was early recognized on both aidés of the Atlantic Uceau.For his devotion to Christ he suffered persecution, but courage was a part of his nature and religion, and he lived to enjoy his triumph*.Born iu 1785, and ordained a priest in 1811, he was called to the Episcopal See of Nancy in 1824.From that date, until July 11, 1844, when he breathed his last, Mgr.de Janson led an eventful and stiiring life.The story of that life is told by Dr.Dionne very feelingly, stress, however, being piid to the çobd Bishop's career in Quebec and Montreal.The state of the Church during Ids residence in ihis country, the men he met, thewotk he accomplished, &c., Ac., are all faithfully described, and the ecclesiastical historian of the future, in these bright pages, will find much material of ah instructive and reliable character, of which he will not be slow to avail himself.The book ie published by Legef Brousseau, Quebec.Two facts point to one conclusion\u2014that Charles Dickens retains bis place in literature.The first is tlie fact that publishers find it pays to bring out new editions of the works of Dickens.They not only sell, but the}\u2019 sell largely, and the demand for them shows no sign of slackening.The second fact is; that at a recent sale of memorials of Dickens there was an unexpected manifestation of popular interest, and eVerÿ token and trifle connected with thfc person of the great novelist brought a high price: Think of paying !?GOO for the top of an ordinary writing-desk, because Charles Dickens wrote \u201cEdwin Drood\u201d on it ! The day of Dickens promise* to have a long afternoon.\u20147TAe Christian Leader, Boston.During the coming summer France will celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the first annexation of Nice to the French Republic.738 188 33 j} 34} 40 17* 113} 1Ü4É New York Stock Market, May 4 Stock market, strong ;

PRîYIDES FOR YOUNG MEN.The Troublesome Khedive.The Khedive is not a wise ruler, perhaps not even an endurable one, but still it is iu his name that wc English govern ; and to have to be perpetually hinting that he must be deposed, or even his house superseded, is not pleasant \u2014not a process which, however necessary\u2014and we are not denying its neces-8ity-tcnJs to diminish the Knlish civilian\u2019s drawback in governing their disagreeable-ness to the upper classes of the governed.They get along with the proletariat well enough, for the latter like justice and light taxation, but the gentry, who feel throttled by our inflexibility and \u201cpriggish\u201d desire for European justice, cannot reconcile themselves to our authority.They fret and their titular ruler frets ami those whom they influence fret, till, whenever there is a jar, rumours are circulated of approaching revolt and alarmists talk of massacre, and half Europe looks on, thinking that though the English govern -successfully they govern without amiability or consideration for feelings which the Continent holds to he exceedingly important.The Khedive is, we do not doubt, a forward person but we do not know a European prince who, in his position.would not be boiling over, or who, if a weak man, would not be tempted to give little pinpricks to his aggressive suitor whenever he saw that that was safe.\u2014
