the Life of Sir John A.Macdonald, has in press ami ready for early publication, a work which promises to be one of the most important and interesting thus far published in Canada.It is a History of the British North America Act, the constitution by which the Dominion is governed.No man is better equipped to prepare such a book than Mr.Pope, whose personal and official relations with our great Premier were intimate and close for a good many years.While encaged in studying the political history of Canada during the writing of his Life of Sir John, much information belonging to the subject of his new book naturally came into his hands.Of course, but very little of this material could be used in the biography of his Chief, for reasons which will suggest themselves to the reader.Since then he has come into the possession of a perfect mass of valuable notes, details, original drafts of bills, etc., all dealing with the story of the Canadian Confederation.These are often in the handw riting of Sir John A.Mac donald, Sir Alexander Galt and the other great lights of thirty years ago, and some of them will appear in fac simile, adding greatly to the interest and attractiveness of the \"work.Mr.Pope has the original minutes of the conference held in Quebec and in London, where the schemes were\tconceiv ed and discussed.These were never published, Sir John having retained them From him and from his brother-in-law, Col.Bernard, they were obtained for this book by Mr.Pope, and we may expect, from the thorough manner in which he does his work, that his History will occupy a permanent place in the literature of this country.It is, moreover, most important that these precious documents, which throw so much light on the inner history of Confederation, have been preserved in a shape which admits of their being used The book will contain many curious facts and incidents not at all known to anyone outside of the delegates who conducted their deliberations privately.There were no fewer than three separate drafts of the British North America Act.Mr.Pope will reproduce all three of them, with the changes in the clauses, showing the growth and development of the Confederation idea, from first to last.Some of these changes are particularly interesting, and will, doubt less, surprise the reader.Of course, Mr Pope\u2019s editorship of these papers will help out the text very materially.The country is to be congratulated on the fact that this collection of historical treasures is, with but one or two exceptions, complete.The last meeting of Lord Rosebery\u2019s Cabinet took place in Downing street yes terday, and the ex-Premier and his col leagues have begun to prepare for the elections, which will be hold very soon Mr.Gladstone will likely issue a procla mation, and it is within the range of the possibilities, that he may contest a seat The Irish members have resolved to pas around the hat, at home, in Canada and in the United States, to provide the sinews of war.\u2019 Money is scarce in Canada just now, and the contribution from this side of the water will not be large.But we can at all events, lend the parly our Mr Blake.Lord Rosebery will probably take a year\u2019s holiday.If Sir William Vernon Harcocrt is not made the real leader of the Liberals, this time, the Liberal party tactics will be bad.The Liberal party needs a thorough overhaul ing and reconstruction.Morriii College, Quebec, P.Q.T |HE SESSION OF 1835-93 OF MORRIN College, will begin on MONDAY, September 30th.The Examination for Matriculation will commence September 26th, at 9 A.M.This Institution, which is affiliate! to McGill University in Arts, has been reorganized and fully equipped for the Course of Study prescribed by the University for the Dezree of B.A.Eight Scholarships have been eitablished, four of the value of Fifty Dollars each, and four of Twenty-Five Dollars each, to be awarded to Matriculants passing the A.A.or the Ordinary Examinations under the conditions set forth in the Calendar.Calendars and all necessary information may be had on application to Profesjor Crocket, College Court, Quebec.(Signed)\tA.H.COOK, Secretary Board of Governors.June 27,1816.\tbo td The Colonies appear to be delighted at the idea that they are to have at the head of Colonial affairs, Mr.Joseph Chamber lain, who is particularly well fitted to make his administration a strong one, every sense of the word.lie knows the Colonies well, and has a familiarity with their wants and political aspirations which will servo him in good stead.N appointment could be more popular, and Canada, especially, is glad to have at the head of Colonial affairs, a man so sympa thetically inclined.The new Government is destined to be one of the strongest the Empire has had for several years.The only question now is, how long will the combination between Unionists and Con servatives last?To kill Home Rule for Ireland, the Union was made.Home Rule is not likely to be seen by the present generation.Coalition Governments Great Britain do not enjoy long lives.LIST OF PRIZE WINNERS.The closing exercises of the Girls\u2019 High School were held last night in the National School Hall, and notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather the accommodation was insufficient for the crowd of people present, this fact showing that the great interest always manifested in this deservedly popular school has been in nowise diminished during the past scholastic year.In fact it seems to have increased, if anything.In the absence of the Very Revd.Dean Norman, Chairman of the Protestant Board of School Commissioners, Mr.George Lamp-son, B.A., presided, and amongst other gentlemen present were Rev.Messrs.Mansell and Tait, Mr.George Parmeloe, Secretary Protestant Council of Public Instruction, and others.The children were all dressed in light colors and the majority of the audience were ladies.The programme for the evening was a very attractive one, and the manner In which it was executed gave ample evidence, if any was needed, of the care and patience with which the children had been drilled by their painstaking teachers.It was

the past year and the results attained, we have great pleasure in acknowledging the encouragement and gratification we receive from the sustained interest and diligence of oar pupils, the late grity and friendship which characterize their keenest competitions, and their loyalty to their teachers and their school.Two of our pupils have successfully passed the A.A.examination, and two the prelimary A.A.The former are the Misses Hull and Jackson, and the latter are the Misses Smith and Graut.In justice to the former young ladies, we should mention that they are the youngest who have ever woo the present distinction in this institution, and they have done in one year that for which, with few exceptions, other schools allow two years Bearing these facta in mind we consider their standing highly creditable.As the pupils entering the senior grades now, are much younger than those of former years, we feel it our imperative duty, both for the preservation of their health and re- flotation of the school, to extend the time a ittlc.We regret that some of the pupils, who would have rendered great assistance at our closing, have left school unusually early this year, on account of the warm weather.It is with feelings of deep gratitude that we acknowledge the kindness and generosity of our many friends.To the following we wish to tender our sincere thanks To Mrs.Dallimore, who is indefatigable in her efforts to collect curios for our museum, and we trust that ample provision will soou be made for the proper arrangement of those she has already given us, and also for the reception of others which she has kindly signi fied her wish to hand over to us.To the friends through whose generosity we have been enabled to purchase the whole set of models belonging to Miss Dawson\u2019s studio.These models will be a great acquisition to the drawing class.To the Misses Stevenson for other six, a valuable addition to those wo have purchased.To the Rev.Dr.Mathews, of London, Eng land, who still manifests his continued interest in the Girls\u2019 High School of Quebec, by his gift of a handsome gold medal To Mrs.Archibald Laurie, and G.Veasey, Esq., for handsome silver medals.We have further to acknowledge the follow ing gifts from friends :\u2014The Very Rev.Dean Norman, Chairman of the Protestant Board of School Commissioners, three volumes, \u201cMacaulay\u2019s Essays and poems for good conduct ; Mrs.Frank Rias, $20 the Rev.D.Tait, \u201cThe Land and tha Book\u201d A.Foulds, Esq., Longfellow\u2019s piems, beau-tifujly bound ; Miss FerguSou, a former teach cr in the Girls\u2019 Hich School, \u201cCrown of Wild Olives\u201d and \u201cSesame and Lilies,\u201d by Ruskin, for English in the second senior grade; T.J.Moore, Eiq., \u201cSouvenir of Scotland\u201d and \u201cHomo Handicrafts\u201d ; Mrs.William Sutherland, \u201cSunday at Home,\u201d nicely bound ; a friend, \u201cIn Freedom\u2019s Cause,\u201d by G.A.Henty, for history.We regret that the fair fields of other lands have iuduced Miss Bush to resign her position in the Girls\u2019 High School of Quebec.Miss Bush has beea a painstaking and conscientious teacher, a favorite with her class and a bright and cheerful member of our staff, and she carries with her the esteem and best wishes of the whole School.In taking leave of those who have completed our course of study, we tender them our most hearty wishes for their future wel fare, and we trust that the foundation of their education which had been laid in the Girls' High School of Quebec, may prove a safe and durable substructure upon which to build, and that the sune affectionate regard for the school may continue in them as is still manifested hy those who have preceded them.As Principal, I desire to express most hearty thanks to my teaching staff for the unfailing energy and the harmonious spirit, which have characterized the performance of their labours during the session.We recommend our work to your sympa thy, which has never failed us, and we close with the hope that future years may find an ever increasiog number of friends to continue to the school the practical expressions of sympathy with our object and efforts, which we hive had the pleasure of acknowledging to night.The Revd.T.J.Mansell was requested to hand the A.A.certificates to the two young ladies who had so successfully gained them, Misses Hull and Emma Jackson.Before doing so Mr.Mansell made a short address in which he complimented the two young ladies upon the fact that they were the youngest in the Girls\u2019 High School who had ever taken the examination with success, and hé warned the boys to look out now that the girls were entering into competition with them on an equal, and perhaps even on an advantageous footing.After the distribution of prizes, always one of the most interesting events of closing day, the programme was brought to a close by the singing of the National Anthem.Miss Macdonald and all the members of her very efficient staff, are to be congratulated upon the success of their labors during 1894-95._________________________ Horsemeat War in Paris.An amusing warfare has been carried on in Paris between the Government chemists and the makers of sa isage in which horseflesh has been used Some time ago Ihe Butchers\u2019 Association of Paris strongly advocated a law rendering it compulsory to designate, by a label or other wise, all sausages composed of horseflesh, or in which horsellesh had been mixed with other meats.The authorities, while perfectly willing to make regulations enforcing this practice, declined to do so on account of the impossibility of punishing offenders.To punish the violators of a law it is necessary to detect the violation, and also to show proof of it.In the present stale of scientific knowledge it is not possible to satisfactorily determine the difference between flesh of the horse and that of any other animal when they are both chopped tine and mixed together.A chemist finally discovered that if the meat were treated with iodated water a reddish-brown reaction would be apparent if horseflesh were present.Pork and beef do not give this peculiar tinge.The pork butchers rejoiced and prepared to push the wished for legislation.The horsemeat men had a card up their sleeves, however, and commenced adding a little flour to their sausage meat.When the iodated water was applied, contact with the starch of the Hour immediately produced a brilliant blue, which effectually masked all traces of any other colour.This blue, of course, would point to the likelihood of horse meat being present, but it could not be sworn to.Supposing the meat to be of pure beef and the flour added, the blue would be the saine when the test was applied.The chemist again wont to work and discovered that if the starch was sopiraled by maceration and subsequent liitratiou, ami the residue treated with two or three chemical*, the horsemeat would bo detected.So far the victory rests with the chemists, and the law will probably be passed uiiIcsh the liorsemeat ¦non make another discovery.In isilg, 2;>,e» or «hr Rrxl Ï1 Hears i«r Ike
