America.I Amongst the many deaths that we have been called upon to chronicle of late, none perhaps have created so much of a void iu ( this community as that of our deeply regretted friend, John D.Gilmour, Esq , the sad news of which reached us on Thursday morning by telegraph from Florida.Mr.Gilmour was son of the late David Gilmour, Eiq., and of Mrs.Farquharsou Smith, and his three sisters are Lady Gilmour, wife of his cousio, Sir John Gilmour, of Glasgow, Mrs.Walter Chamberlain, of Birmingham.England, and Mrs Chaloner Smith.The deceased gentle* mac retired from the firm of Gilmour A Co , lumber merchants, about five years ago.He has not been for some time in very robust health, and left here some weeks ago ^ to remain the latter part of the winter in Florida, accompanied by Mrs.and Miss Gilmour.Upon reaching New York, where he spent the early part of last month, Mr.Gilmour was apparently iu better health than he had enjoyed for some time previously.He continued ou to Florida, and at Rockledge was attacked by malaria, which prevented him from proceeding with hie journey.His ill-pesa seems to have developed into typhoid fever, and although the weather was growing quite hot, and the hotels weie closing, it was impossible to move him.On the day prior to that of his death, the temperature at Rockledge was 85 in the shade.Yet on Sunday or Monday last he was attacked by chills, from the effects of which he never wholly rallied.The report of his condition as telegraphed by his physician to Dr.Sewell on Tuesday morning, determined the latter upon leaving immediately for the bedside of his patient, which the doctor was unable to reach, however, until after Mr.Gilmours death.On Wednesday night it was learned here that the sick man was holding his own, but Thursday morning brought the news of his death, and Dr.Sewell only reached Jacksonville on Thursday night.On VN ednesday night the two sons of the deceased arrived home here tor their Easter holidays from Bishop\u2019s College School, Lennoxville.The sympathy which goes out to them, as well as to Mrs.Farquharsou Smith, the mother of the deceased, and to the bereaved widow and daughter in Florida, is universal ; not only be cause they rank with the most deservedly esteemed of our people, and on account of the extremely sad circumstances of their bereave meat, but also bscause of the hosts of warm friends possessed here by the deceased, of whom it was literally true that they all love \"Jack,\u201d as our poor friend loved to be known to his many acquaintances.Few men were possessed of finer natural instincts or of a kinder heart and more generous nature than was J.D.Gilmour.He was one of nature\u2019s nobleman,\u2014a perfect gentleman in every sense of the word.His sometimes ragged exterior concealed a heart true and tender as a little child\u2019s, and the slight, though firmly knit frame that was ever ready to withstand anything that savored of un-worthiness and dishonor, has been known to His Holiness Grieved by the NeWS.etc.LEAD IN - - - Gents\u2019 and Ladies\u2019 Waterproof Garments.Ancoats Excelsior Ladies* Garments, The Burlington, The Victoria, The Empress, etc The

him, and his family and friends may well cherish his memory as that of a man without fear and without reproach.The writer has had exceptional opportunities of knowing something cf his gentleness and self-denial.During the last season that he spent upon his salmon river, Mr.Gilmour, on several occasions, though far from well himself, tramped for miles in stormy weather along the beach, to nurse and administer medicine to an old Indian sufferer, a relative of one of his men, who was ill and unable, updo that desolate shore, to obtsln the services of a doctor.Several other such instances might be mentioned.Like many another of gentle mien, our lamented friend was an excellent all round sportsman.In his youthful days he was one of the more prominent of our local athletes.An ex-0ommodore of the Quebec Yacht Club, and an undaunted sailor, be did much by example and influence to further the revival of yachting in the Lower St.Lawrence.His prowess as a hooter is testified to by the many trophies of heads and antlers that adorn bis elegant home, taken from the noble game that fell from time to time to his gun and rifle.As an angler he had few eqnals and no superior.He was the ideal, the complete angler of the Waltonian type, who knew that it was not all of fishing to fish, but practised thn art as the contemplative man\u2019s recreation, aud so well, withal, that few could cast so fine a fly or tight a salmon to so game and hard a finish.Those who knew him best deemed it an honor to have been entered on his list of friends, aud may say of him as Cotton did of \"Piscator * : \"My father Wallon will be seen twice in no man\u2019s company ho does not lik-', and likes none but such as he believes to be very honest men, which is one of the best argument.-, or at least one of

trustee aud also a member of the Board of Management of St.Andrew\u2019s Church, and a director of the Boys\u2019 High School.The Chronicle extends its most sincere sympathy to his mouruiug relatives

FRASER, ThelP Parade Yesterday.Yesterday afternoon the Eighth Royal R fies had one of their old-time Good Friday parades, and the streets were lined with spec-lators who turned out to see their friends, sweethearts, husbands and brothers in military attire.The men looked well and marched with great steadiness in view of the wretched state of the streets, etpecially the maiu body.Some of the other detachments did not show up quite so favorably but on the whole no one has much to be ashamed ot it Advance and rear guards and parties were thrown out and the main body was headed by the pioneer and signal corps.Iu the cen tre, between Nos.3 and 4 companies were the bugle aud brass bands, aud the ambulance corfis and Maxim gun detachment brought up the rear.After leaving the Drill Hall about 2.30 p.m the Battalion marched straight to the Plains, where skirmishing drill was gone through, and then it returned to town ria the Maple Avenue, 8te.Foye Road, John street, Cote d\u2019Abraham, Crown street, St.Joseph street.Palace Hill, St.John, Fabrique, Buade, Du Fort and St.Louis streets.The men mas tered splendidly, and almost all the officers were present, Col.Jones making his first public appearance in command.He and Major Dunbar were mounted, and so was Adjutant Wood.After the parade.Col.Jones made a short address to the men expressing his pleasure at the manner in which they bad turned out.He also suggested that all who were free ou Saturday afternoons should as semble ou the Cove Fields for skirmishing drill.The Battalion was then dismissed and after partaking of slight refresh ments, thoughtfully provided for them, the men left for their respective homtr.Although the Eighth have as yet received no definite invitation from any place as to the 24th of May, it is generally understood, from what the people and papers of those places have said, that both Montreal aud Ouawa want the boys for their respective big field days.So far there are some who favor each place, aud should both issue invitations, a majority would probably have to decide the question.In its present state of efficiency, which is unexampled for years past, the Eighth need not be ashamed to stand up beside the best of them.It is years since parades have been so largely and regularly attended, and the increased steadiness in the ranks is remarkable.Much of this very gratifying improvement is doubtless due to the recently inaugurated company competition which is exciting keen interest and in which No.6 and No.4 Companies so tar dispute the supremacy.No.1 is again seeing some of the old palmy «lays and No.2 is a very likely candidate.It will be remembered that it has thrown down the gauntlet to any company in the corps for a tug-of-war, and we have heard that No.4 intended to take it up and ask to have the contest extended to drill, etc., as well.As for No.5 it has generally been dismissed without a thought, but this year it is quite a factor in any calculations that can be made, for it has most wonderfully improved.No 3 Company working up now, though at first it was, like No.1, a little lax.Capt.Ray will soon qualify for his Majority, but it is quite possible that he will not desert his crack company for it, and the \"hoy»\u201d certainly hope to retain him at their hiad for soino time.About a quarter past seven last evening the firemen were summoned by an alarm for a fire in St.Suiueur.The fire originated in the lower portion of a house on De Tracey street, occupied by Mr.Drolet.He was carrying a lamp in his hand when he fell, smashing it and setting the place on fire.The fl unes spread rapidly, and on the arrival of the firemen, seeing the danger of the situation, a general alarm was sounded.Both the lower tenement and the upper portion of the house, together with the next house, which was also divided into two tenements, were damaged considerably.The flames spread to the galleries and from them to some out-buildiog-s and it was only after a couple of hours hard work thatthe fire was gotten under control.Both the houses are the property of Mr.Alfred Dombrowski, pork dealer, and the loss is said to be covered by insurance.The damage to the buildings is placed at about $500.The four families occupying the houses were Messrs.A.Drolet, F.Bilodeau, F.Dugal and Moisan.Mr.Drolet is said to have some insurance, but the other three families are reported to have none.The effects, none of which were removed, are considerably damaged.Buy Some.A Pretty Supplement.All young men and ladies who would care to have a very

that though Easter is a week earlier than it was last year, oor butchers have succeeded in making quite as good a show of young meat io the shape of veal acd lamb, as they bad last Easter.MONTCALM MARKET.Messrs.Tozer k Co., have their usual fine display of prime meats, and as we examined the splendid stock we were told that amongst others there were one pair of fat three-year-old steers, one pair of four-year-old steers, which took first prize at the Sherbrooke and Three Rivers Fairs ; one pair of two-year-old heifers, one pair of three-year old heifers fed at Colebrooke Farm, and a lot of fine steers fed in Upper Canada ; twenty sheep weigh log from 100 to 200 pounds, attract a good deal of attention, but not quite as much ai the twelve spring lambs from Inverness and St.Hyacinthe, and from the Seminary Farm at Quebec.Twenty calves fed at Inverness and St.Agathe, end twelve pigs fed by Byrce Miller and Pierre Baptiste, Invernsis, were much admired.Messrs.ToZer 4 Co.have a large stock of hams and bacon of the best quality as well as refrigerated turkeys and chickens, corned beef and tongues, etc.Among their many customers who have reserved joints for Easter, we noticed the names of the Chateau Frotiteoac, L.A.Boisvert, Henchey Hotel, Union Club, Miss Jones\u2019 Private Boarding House, and others.The prime quality of the meat prepared for this market by Messrs.Tozer 4 Co., acd the handsome manner in which it.is dreajed and displayed, also merits special notice.Messrs.J.4 J.Daly make a splendid show of meat, one perhaps that they have never excelled.Nothing can be finer than the prime sides ot beef exhibited outside their stall.The animals from which this meat came must have been record cati'e.The meat shows signs nf the very best of care and feeding, and leaves nothing to be desired.It attracts very wide and very general attention and few are likely to pass through the market without noticing it.The best of veal and lamb is also to be found here, and it comes from feeders of the highest reputation.In addition to prime meat of all kinds, Messrs.J.4 J.D*ly have on hand large quantities of refrigerated turkeys, fresh and refrigerated poultry,fresh laid eggs, creamery and other butter, all game in season, etc.All the leading cattle dealers of Ontario and the Eastern Townships were drawn upon by the Mearri.Dtly Lr their Ets'.er supply of meat.Mr John Martin is even ahead of his usual display this Easter.Some of his beef comes from the prime Aberdeen Angus stock of the Hon.M.H.Cuchrane, he having slaughtered six steers averaging 900 lbs.each.Six very fine lambs, which are much admired, were fed on the Seminary farm at Beauport.Mr.Mmney, of Inverness, was also drawn upon by Mr.Martin for the Easter marke-, and h\u2019s veil is particularly choice.Sucking pigs are also on view at this stall, which is one of the most attractive in the market.Mr.Jc«.Paquet has a very large and a very choice stock of meats this Easier, having slaughtered no less than 33 oalvee, eluding one fed by Mr.Clovis Turcot, of St.Isidore, and one by Mr.Bilodeau, of St.Anselme.The tight head of prime cattle whose carcases are on view are supplied by Sam Mooney, of lnvein*'18s, Mr.Letourneau, of Pierre, Riviere du Sud, and Henri Breton, of St.Valier.Some of thise animals were of extraordinary rize and quality.There are also eight spring lambs, twelve sheep, and quantities of corned beef, tongues, etc.CHAMPLAIN MARKET.Thos.Delany takes front rank, as usual, with his splendid display of Easter meat.All yesterday afternoon crowds of people thronged round the stalls where the display was being arranged for to-day, expressing admiration for the quality of viands and com pUmeutiug Messrs.Atkins and Dooley upon their splendid dressing of them.A cat load of heifers and steers from Guelph, Out., were obtained from Mr.McIntosh, while cattle, sheep and lambs were also supplied by Henry Wilkin and Sam Wash, of Leeds, and Samuel Mooney, of Inverness.From the latter there were secured two exceptionally fine calves, fed by Çhas.Allen, of Leeds, and Sam Allen, of Megautic.The display of choice lambs was exceedingly attractive, and amongst the Oiher toothsome viands on exhibition here are hams, bacon, corned be-f, sucking pig-, cured pork, etc.Mr.Delaney takes tpjcial pride, as he well may, in the really prime quality of his beef and lamb, which is worthy the inspection of co scurs.Aldermoç Jean Drolet makes an excellent display, as usual, and at his stalls may be found, as in former years, some of the best beef aud other viands in town.Much of his beef is from Ontario.Gaiety Theatre.Monday afternoon the initial performance of \"La Fille du Tambour Major\u201d will be given to the patrons and lovers of good music, and it is
