but the greatest triumph of the military rogues on that day was the (lighting of Ktupp\u2019s gnns with pieces of giitbambe>o.Such are the men who would lead the Chinese braves to victory against disciplined Western troops.\u2014Oirr/ancf China Mail, Rapid Tilbobaphino.\u2014The transmission to Cincinnati on Friday night, last week, of the full text of Senator Conkling\u2019s speech at the Academy of Music, New York, is worthy of mention.The speech was transmitted by the Phillips system of ateno-telegraphy in five hoars and five minutes.This is a process of trans-miffcicn done entirely by hand, and tho despatches are received by au ink recorder of great simplicity, which pays out a narrow strip of tape, on which the matter Is plainly printed in linear characters.The wire wae worked without a \" repeater,\" and the amount of matter transmitted, sixteen thousand words, was fully equal to what would be averaged by the Morse system on three wires, by three senders and three receivers.The speed attained may he more fully realized when it is remembered that Mr.Conkiing spoke for three hours and forty minutes, and that his utterances were transmitted in five houis and five minutes, the entire speech being in tbe Cincinnati Oazt'.lc oilicn one hour and twenty-five minutes after Mr.Conk-ling ceased speaking, notwithstanding that he had been talking fifteen minâtes when the work of transmission was begun.Despatches trans mitted by Mr.Phillips\u2019 methd require no preparation whatever, the operator sending from the manuscript.The nystom carried every punctuation mark used in printing, italicizes all words from foreign languages, names of newspapers, etc., and secures the delivery of copy properly punctusted and edited for the compositor.\u2014 Wathinglon Itepiihlican.Society and Tioht Dbbbsino.\u2014A writer in the Ladite' Gazette of Eaehion has the follow!or remsrks on the dress of the period :\u2014L«t ladies array thetn«e!v«* iu blazing garb, a* they pl*-a*e \u2014it matters little ; but what matter* greatly to the world at largo is the appalling tightness of the waist now practised by the clegantet of the period.A few centuries ago officers wera etationed at all public resorts to cut off the traira beyond the regulation length.Pity.mi»«*d, that in there days of liberty similar treatment could not be enforced to snip the suicid div»».Evidently the consequence* in this cate wo-il l 1>e far more embarrassing than the mere curtailing of a train ; but, really, something must be done.I wonder what the national health societies are abont, not to raise their voice against such sinful extravagances.It is really elistressing to see passing by, those tall thin forms swathed a* closely u possible ; their draperies outlining, with the faithfalnesa of sculpture, all the beauties and defects which for propriety\u2019s and comfort\u2019s sake should be discreetly veiled.Can anything look more painful than tho bny, angular arms imprisoned in sheath like sleuvei, which, together with the ridiculously narrow backs, hunch up the shoulders and force the arms into a constrained and unsightly posture ! And as to the spider waists, the wonder is that living beings can breathe in rich a compass.Now that we have had classes for cooking, dressmaking, and ambulance work, it would not certainly be amiss to start new ones for anatomy.Surely, if women had the slightest idea of their own stiactnre, they wonld at once reject a fashion which only ignorance and bad taste have ever tolerated.An Intebbstibo Cibkmoky recently took see In the south of India which may (or a ornent divert our attention from military ents on tho north west frontier.A new nj»n is installed on the throne of Travancore, and record of the proeîeedlcgs now lies before n* in iextraordinary Issue of the Travancore Lavement Gazette.The dynasty dates back for at 1,000 years, tracing its descent, according to alahar custom, through the female lino.1 h* ea of the State is nearly 7.000 square miles ; it* ipnlation exceeds two million souls.Favored r nature and good government, It hai ac-lired the reputation of being the most osperons corner of Hindustan, and has foe-n Bctally held np for Imitation to British Hectors.The new prince, like his brother >fore him, is not only versed in Sourit learning, but also speaks EngU»h trfectiy.After tbe ceremony of coronation ) delivered an eloquent speech, from wb\u2018ch ay quote th* foiloiving paeeego.whlchls more easant to dwell upon than a military bulb-tin ! killed and wonnoed t \" On* of my UlostHo» redeceaeors, who died in the year la which th aster architect, OUvs, laid the foundation ol >* British empire in the East at the laasey (1757).c«dling his ancestor to hU twddds, ive him as tils Urt word* of advice, Tbssj inglisbmen appear destined to rise to pow£ id glory hitherto unparalleled.Be U f^V matant aim and endeavor to secure their friend tipwadsupport.*\" Ws may add thaton^.is first acts ol Um rajah was to wHty Mtj ith his own hawFto ths widow of an Kngh^ an who kaddbd in tho emplornen*01 th* lessor confirming a pension granted by hi* prv 0r,-raUMaU Gazette.

but they can be arranged very artistically on the panels of doors, using starch for holding them in place.I have seen them need with evergreens in winter decorations with great effect.The stem can be broken off, and a fine wire attached in ita place, which makes them a little more yielding t» undle.There is beauty for some in a wreath.\u2022.> called, of autumn leaves ; but I have always failed to see it, more espscially if under glass.They have such a helpless.Imprisoned look\u2014th* beauty all flattened out of them.\" Not long since I read the maledictions of an Individual on a newspaper.He had read in it : * To preserve autumn leaves, put a little whits wax ou the surface and pass a warm iron over them.* Ho said he eat up till after midnight ruining a bushel of the loveliest leaves he ever saw.\u2019 It left them the color of an old felt hat.\u2019 I have had some experience in the ironing pro* cess, and can truthfully say it spoils both leaves and temper.The leaves of sumach and the Virginia creeper, oi five fingered Ivy, will retain their beauty for a time if pressed, and can be used for advantage with other leaves ; but after drying they have not much substance, aud soon \u2019the grace of the fashion of them perUhetb,\u2019 as do so many other beautiful thioga.\u201d MRS.CAULYLK\u20193 GRAVE.With pride the sexton showed the effigies, showing also other titled names that decorate the spot.\" And there,\u201d aald he, while mooilng along, os be pointed out a flagstone bearing two names, oue of which wss but a few years old, \"there is Mrs.Carlyle\u2019s grave.*\u2019 \"The wife oi Thomas Carlyle ?\u2019\u2019 I enquired.\u201c Ay,\u201d said he, \" ay, ay.\u201d And I saw that it was, and that this was the tombstone glorified by that immortal epitaph, the finest tribute ever paid to wife or woman, in which the illustrious literary giant\u2014 Mightiest Titan of ruggedesl mind, Frowning msjeslio on fcobio mankind- after referring to ber long yean of wise and helpful companionship, says that, by her death, \" the light of his life is clean gone out.\u201d \" And Mr.Carlyle,\u201d said the sexton, \" comes here from London now and then to see this grave.He is a gaunt, shaggy, weird kind oi old man, looking very old the last time he was here.\u201d *\u2019 He is eighty six now,\u201d said I.\" Ay,\u201d he repeated, \" eighty-six, and cornea here to this grave all the way from London.\u201d And I told the sextou that Carlyle waa a great man, the greatest man of the age in booka, and that his name was known all over the world ; but the sextou thought there wen other gT»t men ly* ing near at hand, though I told him their fame did not reach beyond the graveyard, and brought him back to talk of Carlyle, \" Mr.Carlyle, himself,\u201d said tbs grave-digger softly, \"is to be brought here to ha buried with his wife, »v.He comes here lonesome aud olooe,\u201d continued tho grave-digger, \" when he vieits the wife's grave.His niece keeps him company to the gate, but he leaves her there, and she stay* there for him, The lost time he was here I got a sight of him, and he was bowed dowa under hu white hairs, and he took his way up by that ruined wall of the old cathedral, and round there and in here by the gateway, and he tottered up here to this spot.\u201d Softly spake the grave-digger and paused.Softer still, iu the broad dialect of the Lothlans, he proceed* ed: \" And he stood here awhile in the grass, and then kneeled down and stayed on hla knees at the grave; then he bent over, and I saw him kiaa the ground\u2014ay, be kissed it again and Stain, and he kept Icneeling, and it waa a long me before he rose and tottered out of the cathedral and wandered through the graveyard to the gate, whore bis niece stood waiting for him.\u201d An Accident of a strange kind recently occurred at Bridgnorth.For the last two years the Bridgnorth Rowing Club have had a floating bath on the river, and certain days are reeerved for ladiee.On the day in question the Severn waa greatly swollen by rain, but nevertheless no danger waa apprehended, and thirty ladies were there bathing, when the bath gave a lurch and commenced to sink.The occupants were alarm* ed, and forsaking their clothing, made for the adjoining bank, and just as they had succeeded in getting on shore the bath sank.A cattle shed afforded the bathers temporary refags.Their clothing was lost beyond recovery, and the inhabitants of neighboring houses were at once applied to for garmeut*.Every dseoribibls costume waa adopted without a murmur, but at last toe stock of clothe* available gave out, and some had to wrap themselves In blankets.For Sale or to Let.Business Card* 'ÜÜK SALK or to Let.an improved JL Pam, uiih comforiati!» BulidiiiM\t1 nntr Ccu,|itou Cfiitfr, in urn Kn-U-ru T.twusUtpt, lea nuit-, I Irout bh«-rt>rouke.100 lU-fr» lu i'U>tlv4Uuu.Apply .Ij IVKil It BRoWN, BJierbrook*, r.Q.\tj Board and Rooms Wanted* ADVKUTlSKMKMHe/Uitsu 4%| II.-.** WtvrKii, ,né*tu4 uitJér tUi A U.860 liruvy All Wool Vents.0.75 ea< b.IIOSTON OXB I'BICK \u20acI.OTIIINU HTORK.41 unit 411 hi.Joari'b sirrri.Tenders.To Lot.GK RANT) TRUNK RAILWAY t.'OMPANV OF 04N1DA.s JUOP TO LET.WROt'GIIT IRON MCRAP FOR \u2022*41.K.Trndera are inviU-on' one bnndred t »n» ot Wrought Iron Scrap, » hlch can he »i-cn on applleallou to the lienrrnl Storek* eper at Point St, t haile*.Tender» endorsed \u201cTender for Wrought Iron Scrap,\" Will be refeived by the sndersigned on oi bepirr TIIUH8-DAY, 30th of September.JOriEI\u2019ll HU KtON.Oeneral klaaager.Montreal, Sept, 24th, 1880.Groceries, Provisions, &c.thgEBT IN USE.\u201d TUB fOCMA\u2019M PKIEND RAKINU POWDKK PI RK.HKAf.THY, RKI.IAHt.M.AbfOiuttly free tram alum or any deletnioa ingrédient, Ri-inllefl Everywhere.LOST, a dark red Cow.Any ono giving Information coacermag her will oblige IHOH.iHLL.Outremant, qas.I U8T, a Pocket book, containing I X about $10.-$3 In toil» and balance la iliver halve» iiad iinurtei, ;

«Uriice with which ha WAt IUt*n«d to was br0,000,000 and the land grant,\u201d and smiled blandly when he userted that when the calculation of the cost of the road came to be made, it would be| found to cost even less.The positive manner in which he summed up that/'We have arranged to tnrn German emigration to Canada,ha ve made a fever for emigration in England, and have ar ranged with \u201cmillionnaires- millionnaires capa ble of building a dozen railways,\u201d must have been very gratifying to hU friends.Though Hir John has often addressed larger bodies of his fellow-citizens, never did he arouse so much frenzied enthusiasm as he did when he reached that part of bis speech above quoted.Mr Gault.MI\u2019., \u201cfor the whole Dominion,' thanked him, and from the enthusiastic manner in which he did it, one would have believed he held a Governor Gener al\u2019s commission in hia pocket.Hir John stood upon the rear ulatform of the car looking down upon Mr.Gault, while with one foot ou the car step and the other on the platform Mr, Gault looked as if he were kneeling.His face beamsd with satisfaction, and the tableau was complete when Sir John clasped his hand and shooK it like a \u201c verra brither \u201d Damou and Pythias could not have bren better acted.IN THE CITY.THE FIELING ON THE STREET CONCtRNlNU SIR IOHN MACOONAI.D'S SPEECH AND THE UAH WAT -SCHEME.The Witness some weeks since published in its local columns what its informant termed the \u201c true inwardnesa\" of the Pacific scheme, stating at the time that leading capitalists of Germany, France, England, the United States and Canada had combined, making one of the strongest syndicates that bad ever come together, and Hir John Macdonald's speech last night confirmed the statement then published.Oar reporter found \" the etreet\u201d to-day, notwithstanding the depreeeing weather, quite jubilant over Hir John's speech.*' The continued depressing reports of the Toronto Globe and the article in the London Timet,\" said one gentleman, \u201c had the effect of dampening my spirits, and I know aim made a great number of Conservatives a little anxious, but Sir John'a utterances have cleared away all doubts, and we now feel that a better bargain has been made than we expected,\u201d The construction of the entire road within ten years, and the amount of capital that will be ex pended in connection therewith must cause Urge quantities of money to circulate, while tbs freight of the rails and other material necesiary to construct the road will, it is pointed out create neat activity throughout the length and breadth of the land.\u201c I have just met a friend who has been in Eu rope for come time, \"remarked another, \u201cand be informs me that he waa amazed at the great iotereat thiaPacific scheme had awakened on the continent of Europe.He said that the English people bad long looked with envy and eome concern on the great number of their people who were year ly leaving their shorea for the Unltel Htates, and that now that they feel that one of their own coloniea can receive and ACCOHMODATE ALL THKIB 8CRPLUH POPULATION, they feel like doing everything they enn to assist the enterprise, and some fondly hops that the great North-West may eventually even rival the United Htatee in its greatness.\" A third gentleman waa very much pleased to hear Hir John aay that he had security for the completion of the road, andaUo for its operation for ten years after its completion.He thought that a syndicate or corporation could halld and ran the road more economically than a Govern mrnt.Hir John'a remark that the road would not exit the older provinces a cent he understood to mean that the Goveratneut had BBTAINEI) A GOOD HHABE Of THE VALUABLE LAND and that its sale would more than recoup the Government for the money spent, THE STOCK MARKET NOT AFFECTED.The Stock Market waa not much affected by Sir John Macdonald's somewhat triumphant \u2022nnonneement of the success of his Pacific Railway negotiations and the glorioua reenlta which he predicta will follow the inauguration of the scheme.\u201c I thought things wonld have been eomewhat better to-day,\" said a prominent broker; \u201cbut the market U quieter, if anything, than y eater-da v.\" The fact appears to be that the market has been forced np aa high aa it can be on the strength of mare announcements in which the details are not given, and it fa likely that the fall effect has been before discounted.At all eventa stocks at the morning board wera about steady at yeeterdaj'a value, and at the afternoon board were, if anything, a shade weaker.THE CABINET MEETING.An Ottawa despatch received to-day confirma our announcement of yesterday.It aaya *'Cabinet meeting aommooed for two o'clock this afternoon.\u201d MONTREAL\u2019S TUNNEL PROJECT.Nothing of importance haa been done on the Hochelaga tunnel since last writing.Mr.Plankett and a staff of ten men are, however, \u2022till daily engaged in making the surveys for the location of the entrance.The difficulty in locating the entrance on either side of the river il fourni to be considerable, bat the engineers expreas confidence that the over ground survey will be accomplished before the setting in of hard frost.In conversation with a leading promoter of the scheme, a resident of Hochelaga, to-day, the latter amoved our reporter that the present prospects for ths carrying ont of tbs Staasl wini rsry (arorable.ON ENCHANTED GROUND.A VIH1TOE WHO FAILS ASLEEP IN THE COURT ROOU I : «COM EM A
