wc must have real people.Let\u2019s each one of ce bring another little girl next month when we have our meeting.The President liking this plan, it was decided upon, hut there wore other questions to lie settled.How often would they better hold their meetings ?Like th/ other society,once a month?Margie said she thought tlfey Would better have them twice a month, and the others agreed.Alice suggested tli.it each one give a penny c.t every meeting and as much more us slia could : to this, also, they agreed.Just then Hattie's mother culled her, and the children knew tliey must \" \u2019joura, \u201d as Alice-, whose father was a lawyer, said.With many promises oi doing their Iwst the children parted.A year later in the minister's parlor was held the anniversary of tho \u201c Children\u2019s Society.\u201d From four, its memliers liad increase 1 to seventeen, while the Treasurer reported $7.lfl -every penny earned by the members and in times when money was scarcer oven than now.The mot Ik rs of the inemliers were the only outsiders allowed, and none of tbese took part except Margie\u2019s mother, who had bellied the little people in their arrangements and reports, and who made tho opening pi aver F.ven after this tho society grew, and it was not long before it was recognized by the ladies\u2019 society as a groat help, and invited to attend its meetings.Hut it is of the last annual meeting of tho \" Children\u2019s Society,\" rs they still call it, (for even if the first*niem-hers are grown up now, there arc many children in it), that I want to tell you.It was held six months ago in the church of which Margie's father is still the minister.On a little platform, put up for tho purpose on one side of the pulpit, snt-thc minister, the present office rs of tlie society, and the first four members.Hattie was there in an invalid's chair, her white, sweet face showing signs of peace as well as of pain.Alice sit a litth to me side, w ith an open note book in her hand, for after many years she had again been chosen Secretary.As for Margie and Nan, they were together on the other side, Margie holding Nan's hand with a firmness that looked of if she never expected to have hold of it again And.that was very near the truth, for tho next «lay Nun was to h avc her home and the dear society to go as a missionary to India.This was lier farewell iih eting.TVc services were short, and it seemed to all ca if tlie time passed entirely too quickly.Aft«:r it was over the oilier three went homo with Hattie t«> spend the night, and to talk over the present, pa^t and future.The next «lay Nan left them to «lo the work that she felt was waiting for hor.She has already written thr»-« times to tho society at home, telling about her occupatmn and surroundings, and all the members look forward to her letters\u2014the little ones as well as those who workid with her from the In-ginning.Sorely Nan is doing\" something \u2019portant.\" \u2014 /iMza'irtk M.Clark, in Christian Int'tfiytn-r*r.Businoss Cards.PRUE MERIT HAS ITS REWARD.\" Thl*.mi.\\ Inx Is amply veilile*!

THE CALEDONIAN SOCIETY wtLi..86 no : tu.Ill N> : ICO.133 $be ànailtr WKDNKSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1837.Tin: Knolisii Minority have put their caiulidate in the liehl a^itinsl the nominee of the great majority, thus trampling on the bond which they themselves tried to enforce on their fellow citi/ens.This is simple treason to the idea of Knglish unity, in whose name Mr.Abbott was tirst brought out, anti the fact that many respectable citizens have lent themselves to it shows ho\\v» little one class at least cares for that idea.Mr.Abbott\u2019s Requisition has been signed on the vote early and vote often principle.A good many prominent signatures are down more than once.There is no law, however, against signing twice, and \u201c there is lots of money,\u201d we are told, at the Iwek of Mr.Abbott, and the advertising bills will not lie too great, no matter if the re-juisition it doubled in length hy duplicate names.It makes u good show.\u201cClear Around the United Kingdom\u201d is to be the course of the lloyal yacht race this year for the Queen's Jubilee Cup, and it is to l»e opcu to the world.Ilritiah yachtsmen would like to sail around the Kmpire, but the North-F.ast passage has not yet been made.I'uck's feat of putting a girdle around the earth would be a fine race.American yachtsmen claim that they have the habit of victory, and declare that they Mill sail round the British Isles and the British yachts too.Republican Simplicity is a thing to which even \u201c Barbaric gorgeousness'\u2019 not to speak of \u201c Imperial splendor\" has to yield the palm.At a recent White House reception Mrs.Stanford,wife of a Senator, \u201c iairly shone with precious atones, \u2019 her diamonds alone being | valued at half a million.Mra.Frank Les-! lie's diamonds, \u201c big as bird's eggs\" (goose Î) and \u201c her corsage which waa one blaze of rare gems\" was fairly outshone on thia occasion tit h gh she \u201cattracted attention.\u201d This U the sort of simplicity which is called \u201c pleas- iuK-\u2019\t_ Mr.Abbott tells the people in his address that as a member of IWIiament ho did not vote or speak on Canadian Pacific Railway qucktioua when they came up, because of his connection with the Company.Disqualified by bis own confession from taking part ia the delilieratiom of a representative body on Canadian Pacific questions, ho yet seeks to Itccome not only a member hut the chief member, the chairman, of a body of representatives of a city which can.not but have dealings with a great railway company seeking an entrance and a passenger station in the West Knd.As mayor the h dicitnr of thu Canadian Pacific would have altogether too much in-fitieuce in favor of his own Company and against rival companies.STOPPING THK PAPER.As it ia not necessary for subscribers to the IVitHtAi to wiitc to have their papers stopped we get very few such letters.During the subscription period of this new year our attention lias < nly been drawn to three such lett< rs.One is from a gentleman, who can take the H'ifn/'** no longer because it gives him Urn much pain to hear Mr.Blake criticised : another w isltcs the paper stopped because it is too Grit for him.The third says we arc too one-sided, but does not nay how.It is plain that if our aim was to write so as to please all parties our task would not lie an easy one.That of saying about everybody exactly what wo 'believe to In.- true and right is decidedly i\u2018 \u2018sr as well as better.WILL HK, CROSS THK RUBICON?On/) has a picture of Sir John Macdonald as a mountebank, who has been advertised to make a «langerons plunge, squinting at a life preserver marked prohibition.Mr.Blake looks on in extreme anxiety lest hn should put it on.There is nothing absurd in this.Sir J 1 u is quite equal to any soinmersault, uiid khowm wonderfully well which way the wind blows.Such a move would not add iiiaiiy to his faithful followers, for no one would placo the slightest confidenco in the genuineness of his conversion, but it would greatly demoralize the Reform party.The backbone of that party in Ontario is its teinpQ'ance men, many of whom arc just now indignant at Mr.Blake's attitude on prohibition.Its weakness in that Province lies in the fact that having for a very long period exercised the patronage of that Province it has drawn to its sup|tort by a natural gravitation many of the elements which injure its moral fibre.A large proportion of the tavern keepers are R->mnn Catholic, and these are now all, or nearly all, \u201c Reformers.\u201d As the grunting of licenses is a matter of patronage, ami in many other ways it is desirable to l»e in favor with the Government, the liquor men have reasons other than religious for easting in tlu ir lot with the Reform party, which some of them have done.There is certainly a slackening in the ardor of some of the Reform organs on the prohibition question.The espousal of that cause hy the Tories would throw the liquor element still more to the Reform side ami so ttill more weaken the testimony of the party against the evil.In the Province of Quebec the temperance men are very largely Conservative, and tho Liberals w ould l>e made by such a course on the part of Sir John Macdonald into active enemies of the reform.Under new leviers the Conservative party inignt, possibly, like the Democratic party in the United States, give the country the best administration it ever had, but this is not likely.The Democratic party had been purified by long defeat while the Republican had been gorged by long years of plunder.The case has been durèrent at Ottawa.MAYOR BKAUGRAND AND THE ENGLISH CANDIDATES.There arc at present two Knglish candidates in the field for the Mayoralty, the first being the people\u2019s choice.Mr.George Childs, ami the second being the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott.Under the circumstances Mayor Beaugrand, w ho has a requisition signed very largely by the Knglish speaking people bo ore him, is very naturally perplexed as to what bis duty is.It is generally believed that the veiy large majority of Knglish people, including very many supporters both of Mr.Chihis ami of Mr.Abbott, would prefer Mayor Beaugrand.They say that if there is any honor to be got from the position this year that Mayor Beaugrand is richly entitled to it.He assisted tho Knglish people to free the city from what had grown to be an intolerable burden, and be is probably the only one who was able to do so.If any one deserves knighthood for services rendered t the city as Mayor it is certainly Mayor Beaugrand.Every one knows that Sir John Macdonald has only to advise tho Queen, through the Governor General and the Colonial Office, to knight Mr.Abliott among the next colonial batch and knighted he will be, and in view of Mr.Abbott's record that would l>e the most fitting manner for him to obtain honors of that kind.His services have been rendered to Sir John Macdonald and to the Canadian Pacific Railway.The people say, \u201c Let Mr.\u201c Abbott be knighted by all means, but let \u201c un have the man who slew the city's dragon \u201c knighted also.Ho has fairly won his \u201c spurs.\u201d The English people have a chanca to elect an Knglish Protestant as Mayor though this year, and they do not altogether want to lose it.Mr.Childs secured tho [uiptilar nomination at the meeting of citizens called for that purpose.Mr.Abbott has been put up in opposition to him by the Canadian Pacific Railway ami the Committee, or at least a number of the Committee.If no French candidate is put up the supporters of Mr.Childs would like nothing better than to go to the poils against those of Mr.AhUitt.They are confidcut that the fight would he between the \u201c mosses and the classes\u201d, w ith the classes, however, not undivided.Thu niasr-es arc in favor of Mr.Childs, and the votes of each unit amoug them counts for as much at the polls as the vote of the unit of the numerically disproportionate classes, though the units of the in isscs are not heard from the mouths of the majority of CMninittce men ami chairman.If Mayor Beaugrand can sec it to be his duty to allow the two Knglish candidates to go to the people, wo h«q>« he will do so.He is, however, the guardian of his own honor, ami the only dictator «f his own duty, and whatever be bis decision, the English speaking people who have tried him and found him true as steel will believe that he acts in all honor.\\N u would prefer to sec tho fight between Mr.Childs ami Mr.Abbott alone, but If a French candidate is put up against the two Knglish candidates we trust that they would both he withdrawn and Mayor Beaugrand would once more go to tho pells as tho candidate of the unanimous English speaking people.lu thu meantime Mr.Childs' supporters should work hard and make doubly sure tho victory which w ill certainly he theirs if the contest is between Chihis ami Abbott.CONTRACTORS DEMAND A BKI.AXAT10N OF THK LAW RKSPBCTINO THKIR RELATIONS WlfU THKltt CtSTOMKHS.A meet il g of the Contractors\u2019 Association was held ycsD-rday evening in their hall.The President, Mr.Louis Allard, occupied the chair, and among those nnsent were Messrs.Win.Ruth, rford, K.Ht.Louis, L.Cmisinesu, C.T.Chsrleboi.*, J.A.Kiopel, B.Frigon, Jos.Trude), P.P.rmut, J.R.Savignao, John O'Leary, G Palascio, A.Rousseau, James M unison, J.W.K.Bruuet, A.Renaud and otlwrs.After n \"tine kuMinM, the following résolu-tii it whs moved by Mr.R.St, Louis and sen nded by Mr.John O\u2019Leary :\u2014 Wlims* *ome of the 1a»s which «overu

from our statutes ct all laws which might protect the supplier* of material sad the workmanship against the underhand practices of strange contractors, when less scrupulous than the) should he.Resolved, that the Association of Contractors of Montreal authoriza its committee of management to oppl) to the Legislature of Quebec, at the approaching session, to obtain the redits» of all causes of complaint i on the i*rt of the contractors, as also the suppliers of I map rial and the workmanship by the two oversights mentioned in the preamble to this motion, and that ths legitimate expenses of obtaining this end will be paid from the funds of this association.In prerenting the motion to the meeting, the chairman remarked that tho amendments required were numerous, but the directors thought it advisable, for tbe present, to confine them* ¦c-lvea to the following: 1st.That clause 1690 of the Civil Code be repealed, and that owners be obliged to pay for all extras nr modifications of speclflcatlons ; 2nd.That workmen and those who supply materials have the same privilege ami lien for their work and material as the builders themselvee, and not have to look for payment to their employers alone, who, In emue cases, were strangers of whom very little was known, and who sometimes disappeared without paving the wage* due to their workmen and the price of materials they had used.Ha added that in nearly every State of the American Union a *' Mechanics' Lien Act\u201d existed and worked very beneficially.It an» suggested by soma of the members that the legislature should Ini asked to repeal tbe article of the code which renders the contractor responsible for his work during ten yeais.However, tho majority objected to tho proposition on the ground that this clause really strengthened the position of the contractor, being an inducement for capitalists to invest in building iq>eration*.\t' The motion was then carrier! unanimously.The Chairman announced that the directors had decided to allow the use of tho Association rrnms to any memlwr for tho purpose of holding mretings f his fellow tradesmen, on application br ing made therefor to the secretary.Mr.K.Ht, Louis, I\u2019resident of the Baunuet Committee, announced that it would take place on the 2.r>th inst, at the Ht Lawrence Hall.Two hundred tickets would be issued.A drive would take place at 12 noon, th?same dar, around the city.The meeting then adjourned.THE ABATTOIRS.A PBOrOSITION t\u2019OXSIDKRID BT Till BOND-HOLDKHS.The bondholders of the Union Abattoir Com pany held another meeting yesterday afternoon, in the office of Mr.1*.S.Ross, that gentleman \u2022gain presiding.The chairman said he considered the Company solvent, and that if Mr.Beique\u2019s or some similar plan were adopted he would undertake to run the abattoirs and make t h» m pay.If nothing were done, then the whole projierty would revert to the city, and the Ix-ndholdera would lose everything they had paid in.The proposition made by Mr.Beiq-ie ami Mr.Archibald was not announced in the presence of the preas; but it is understood that it waa decided after lengthv discussion to call on the officisls of the Bank of Montreal and learn ti|»on what terms they would dispose of the flfi.OOO worth of bonds which they hold in their irossession.If satisfactory arrangements are made with the bank, it ia understood that Mr.Beique\u2019s princi|>als and the boudholdera will agree to take up the interest which ia to be paid to the city.A meeting will be held at the office of Mr.I\\

the many qualities of their esteemed and regretted confrere.A writer in a contemi>orary, who has evidently gauged the great worth and lovableneM ot tho late Mr.U.A.Ramsay\u2019s character, remarks All that the tendereat care and the utmost skill could do was done ; but it waa otherwise written, and another has been added to the loved and honored group which, during one short month, has passed into that world which ie silent for us.The death of such men leaves a void in tbe hearts of their immediate friends which is never filled on this earth, but it leaves also a proud remembrance *, it adds to sorrow a subtle sweetness after the lapse of time, because they feel that only to have known such people ia a privilege, and to bave been their intimate comi>anionB is a possession.\u201d The same writer observes : \u201c For many years he served in the Montreal Garrison Artillery.As captain of No.(i Battery he served during the Fenian raid of 1870, and after he retired from the brigade his interest in it continued.During the recent campaign in the North- ATest he undertook the task of looking after the families of the men on active service\u2014a duty which he fulfilled with characteristic fidelity.\u201d LAVAL\u2019S VICTORY.JUBILATION OF TUB CAKDINAL\u2019s \" LIUKBALC VTHO-LIO\" FltlltNDS.The French Liberals and Conservatives who, on Monday, effected tho defeat of Mr.Adolphe Ouimet, the Castor and Ulttanmntnino president of the St.Jean Baptiste Society, replacing him by Dr.Lachaixdle, of Laval University, are more than a little jubilant over it.The result, they allege, rids the Society of a man whom they pretend they had to compel to present an address to Cardinal Taschereau when lie visited this city lost summer, so great was his aversion to the Liberal Catholic element of which His Eminence is the acknowledged leader.The Recorder and the Chief of Police were among the nine who supported Mr.Ouimet.AN ITALIAN CONCERT.On Monday evening a concert was given at 900 8t.Catherine street on behalf of the General Hospital and the House of IndiDtryaml Refuge, by the Italian colony of Montreal.The programme was a nmst varier! one.The resident Italian

WUneu.) Sui.\u2014A* our Kreuch »i>e»kiDK citizen* have iu*tly decided to elect au Ei «Uah-tpaakin* Mayor.I think the leant we can do in honor to Our loved Mayor (Beaugrand) ia to elect him for another year; for aurely it\tTf\"ee much intelligence for »oy\ti^Jdo}n^their that a certain claw of our cit izen* are doing tneir utmont to bhift our reapacted Mayor at *uycJ**t\u2019 It ia btrauge that these are the very peojde ho had rr,ï.£ S,y'.Au \u201cri»«»W\u201d*lA,,î Montilth \" Ske^ïi ue humble.Ju*t think for a moment of K a few month* auo our city waa lying m aackcloth and a*he*.Who then, at hi.own riek worked *o very hard to drive diaeaw and 4e*truction out of our city ?Who but our worthy Mayor Î But now, when we can do a single act of ju.tice we heaitate to do it and forget all thi*.When the pres* all over the world were di*cn«Hing the iniafortune* of Montreal, what were the remark* about our Mayor?Were they not these, viz., It i* a blessing they have such a hue Mayor, Their Mayor seema to be th ¦» right man in the right place,\u201d \u201c Beaugraml h;w good common aenae, He is a »afe captain with hi* heart 10 the right place.\" Now, I hold if we allow him to be thrown overboard when we have it in our power to help him, the press all over the world will t66iu with roprouchfH on our fiur city, anu it will be in everyone's mouth (even thore who are clamoring for his downfall) how harshly we have treated him.fr will then be too late, and we could not retrieve ourselves if wo would.Mr.Beangrand\u2019* name will be apoken of with love and respect by all right-thinking people for a long time.We are placing our worthy mayor in a very awkward position.He u slandered by a certain portion of the press, and is not able to retaliate.Surely hi* modesty as well a* his impartial dealing, ought to bear acme weight in hia favor; especially a* these two virtues are not very prevalent m our city.A* was said by some of the Light Brigade before entering into the charge, there was a glow on Lord Cardigan\u2019* countenance they never saw before, and all the men were inspired by it.Now if we could only see our Most Gracious and loved Oueen placing the insignia on our respected Mayor, and see the glow on her face, while we listen to her kind words, saying, this 1» the man we delight to honor, \u2019 would we not all feel pioud of our Mayor then ?I am \u2022nre it Diogenes was to come to Montreal with ni* lantern \u201c looking for an honest man, the first he would pick out would be our Mayor and he would then need to look in almost every comer before he would find another like him.We are like the archbishop who, when going to preach, sent hi* faithful servant Gil Bias to church to criticise hi* sermon and to find out what hii htaren thought of it.When told the truth he turned ;>o«r Gil Blaa out of door*, for being too honest.Now we are doing Ihe same thing.\t.\t,\t, .I would like to say a word to those aspiring to the othce without earning the honor.Some Îefci* ago, during the Sepoy mutiny, when Lord lavelock fought our battles, at or nearly the eloee, the British Government sent out Sir James (hltrarn as senior otficerover Havelock.What a storm was raised by the press all over the world! we almost held our breath, so to speak : but Sir Jamt s, being a good man, would take no chargo nor rob any one of their honor* when they did not belong to him.I might men tion also General Wolseley, when sent out to re {ilace Lord Chelmsford, ho wrote back that he ound everything all right and in order, and the battle all arranged, and therefore would not take Lord Chelmsford's place, although he knew that the battle would finish the war.How much love tin se men inspired by acting thus ; they shed more lustre on their names than all the battles they could gain But Indore going any fur ther 1 would say\u2014it is not easy to refuse a crown, and some people it would not become ; it would lie a source of honor to our resjiocted Mayor, but on one who has done nothing to earn the honor it would be (to tay the least), ridiculous.Such a thing would remind me of a certain king who knighted one of his favorites because lie was go.ef at planting cabbages.We should not be behind hand honoring our mayor when foreign countries are placing honors on hie head.Now, if there an* any men here with hearts like Sir James Outram and General Wol- hank of the Detroit River between Windsor and Walkerville.The overhead conductor ia *up' ¦xirted by short cro*» arm* extending out from the pole* placed beside the track; on this a ' traveller' run*, which conduct* ihe electricity to the motor\u2014snd tlii uce the current is carried to the rail*, which are in electrical connection with the generator.The motor oar\u2014which u used for paasengers as well\u2014carries a ten-home Eower motor, the armature shaft of whir i is cited to the axle* of the wheel» of the cir.The generator consist* of a vandepole dynamo driven by a Westinghouse engine.Iwo or tlirie cars can be driven, if nece*sary, at a speed of thirteen miles an hour, up grade* and around curves, thus fully demonstrating the practicability of the electric motor.The coet of plant would »>e a mere trifle, ami the expense of running i* claimed at Windsor to be two third* lesa than horse jH.wer.^ ^ Montreal.DISGRACEFUL SUBURBAN ROADS.(To the Editor of the Witness.) Sib,-Would you kindly inform your reader* on the Upper Lachine mail if there i* anyone responsible for the disgraceful way that road i* neglected, and after storm* such a* we have had the last two days?It was five o'clock this morning before the enow-plough was run over the road, after a hnrso fell dead within two miles from the Tanneries toll-gate from exhaustion.Road* or no roads, you have to pay tribute to Casar, and shovel your waV out, as we had to do yesterday morning and this.It 1« oks to us, on the upper road, a* if the trustees knew and cared little how the roads are kept.Certainly the management is indifferent and in great need of a change.It has been going from bad to worse these two years, and the public are getting tired.We want more money spent on the roads and snow drifts, and less in fat salaries.As for the two men that are engaged working on the road, we have not one word to say against them ; they do all in their power and are faithful servants ; but it is im|s>ssible for them to do eight men\u2019s work.Hence wo have to wait until the storm is over ton or twelve hours, or break the roads ourselves.There are fifteen of us that have to go over this road between five and six every morning, and it is cruelty to animals of the worst kind to wade in snow for mile* and then have four or five hour* driving round town, then home again.Mr Editor, I think you will uudertt&nd our iituation, and if there is any possible means of remedying it through your influential pa;>er you will be conferring a great boon on man and beast.T.A.TwttfHOLMI.Upper Lachine Jtoad, 15th Jan., 1H87.[A similar complaint reached us from the Lower Lachine Ko»d recently ; and some gentlemen were snowed up for two hours and a half on the Cote 8t.Antoine Hoad on Saturday.The authorities should provide special power to deal with special emergencies.] MR.WORDY WIMAN WAXINO KIXHil'BNT IN AN BXmAOBI'tNABT tIT-IKK TO THK SHAHKHOLOBBH OK TH* MONT-HR A I.TKL*«KAl*H COMKANT.Mr.Krsstus Wiman has addressed an ojwm letter to the hhareholder* of the Montreal Tele* graph Company, in which, after referring to the delay in the payment of the dividend, and to the regularity with which previous dividends haw been paid for the htst five years, he proceeds to state that \u201ctho changed conditions which now exist in the Dominion materially affect telegraph pro|»rty.and altgr our chances of maintaining the ]H>sitin which we have hitherto held, of being able to pay to your company tlieeiglit percent which we have undertaken to |,ay.We are confr mted with a competition such a* no business in the country is able to withstand.Beset on every side with difficulties, there is n lu»|»e for any continuance of existing arrangements unless by some readjmt-ment we art* enabled to reduce our obligations in proportion to our earning power.In all this, no reference is made to the Western Union Comjtany.The corporation is com|>osed of 5,000 shareholders, representing a capital of ^\t^ ,\t.nr.n.nT*.-.vn.\ttK0.COO.000.Its obligation is abundantly good.aearts like Sir James Gutram ana General vvoi-\t.riTwl t,, k .,n it* behalf I WMSKssur'* *nd \"ur Montreal.17th Jan.\u201c Dinka Y* Hk.vb It.\" THK ART GALLERY.(To the Rtitor of the Witness.)

to other vessels in Canadian jK>rts.The motive and purpose of such denial have b* \u2022 ii openly and plainly avowed by Cana da to be, first the punishment of such vessels because the Cmted State* levies a duty on Canadian fish, not fresh, for immediate con sumj to n such ns the government levies on ih sucli fish not the product of Americau hslieriee and imp' rt*d from any foreign place whatever : and, sec< ndly, to c< erc.the United States to \u2018 x empt such Canadian fish from all duties md to enur into other n* w reciprocal custom « re-lat: ns with the Canadian dominion and Newfoundland.It i* a policy of thr< at and cotr< ion which, in the opinion of your com-mittte, should len secret that tbenrominent mem* fiers contemplate going into real iwlitics for the next four weeks.A NATIONAL CONHKUVATiVIC\" ASSOCIATION.The Conservative Nationalists have formed a iMibtical association, with Senator Armand as President, Messrs.F.A.Ouinn and IMland, vice presidents, L A.Lefebvre and 1*.Dtrailger, joint secn-taries, and A.M isson treasurer.A committee, composed of Senator Bellcrose, Messrs.Bergeron, M.I\u2019., Duhamel, M.r.P.t au allow Mr.Turtti hr wrll \u2022\u2022i\u2019* lawyer to address the jury to-day, the imtance of the Hon.George Brown being allowed to addr.-*» the jury under similar circumstance* being quoted, am >ng oth'-r precedents, in support, the application was opposed by plaintiff, ami taken m d libert by the judge.THE NSW IIARtlOn WORKS.An important conf* rence took ulace, yesterday afternoon, between the Ilurbor Coiumis-sinner*, City Council, Board of.Trade and Mr.Perlty, f the Public NVorks, Ottawa, on the \u2022\t' \u2018 \u2018 w harbor works.The rosult Cam*.\u2014Partritlirrs go »lo'xly at 40c, and vsnison th« eart-ase is worth be to 6je |x-r lb.Kbi-k:\"ts Oat», 5.600 bushels ; flour, 376 brl*.; but t*r, ni:i pi' ka.-t-s ; chew, v~ boxes ; drtssed ho;.-*, 97 !; leather, 24 rolls.dairy produce.Rerun.\u2014The stock of CanadUif amlAmcrhau butter in Liverpool, on the 31»t m»t., Is reported by circular to have been 4,304 package», the smsllest stoik ever ktio-vn since the trade amounted to anything.Tlr stock» for the part ten year* were.1876-31.418 plWT «s»»; 1*79\u201431,33* : I SOO\u201449,712 ;\t18Sl\u2014.I «v >_7 \u2022\u2022 > ; 1**3-17,242 ; 18.,.l-27,484 ; 1335-10,264; 1-M\tThe market is strong, anti a fair amount of t»U\u2018if»c>s ia t>ein£ done.\\ of a carlo^l of vftti ern .,t ITcVan bejrei-ortctl.The following arc the quota Uona :\u2014Creamery, 22c to 25o ; Town*hip*.13c V» Morrtsburg, 17e to 2P- ; Brockvllle, nominal ; Wertern 17c- to 18c, a* to quality.rnrr.**.The i.iarkit continue.* as strong and as iiuic-tas t-'er.Prices ure rtruilj quotetl as 'ollows : finest while.12c to l2lc ; tlnort colored, 12j to l-JJc medium to line, uilc to iljc.A jjocxl inffsliufot for thOBO w»i'> ezpoct CARNIVAL VISITORS WouM be to buy they ure being ioM at HALF BREAKFAST Raiinruiil URN Kit JAMES The few nomination* not yet made will probably be announced within a week.\t.\t,\t,\t, Mr.H.II.Fuller, in accejiting the joint I eubjt-ct of the m-w harbor works.II candidature with th*- lion.A.G.Jones for t\u2019i* | w.a* f»r from satisfactory, showing that many of rejircst ntation of .Halifax in the House of Commons, i* alleged to have said that ht would aid in overthrowing the present Gov eminent and then do all h .15 CEOBÜR H.KOYTELL, ltt»3 Aofrc Dime street, 1st fflnt, Bnl üonr.Thus- doors eart Pinec d'Anu-__________ [Rogisttuvl] \u2014A \\J .l.llghtfulljr refmrhinB rr« r*™»*1»'' ,Tr \u2018''I'.-vImiM Bbotiltl ls> used daUp.Kerps the 'f* P tUiitliutf.promote# tho\t^Jikn\u2019UV II OKAY, fer the family Si «nts |s-r l*ittle _ Il KM 1 ^ J*\t\u2018 Chemist, 141 Ht Lawrence Mam »t.Hole u.urine i u CASTOR FLUID tine hn Hath of the J*OU SALE.VI* .tiHim».Including W f v, r.-.il -r l.d to the prln-il d \u2022l.J ot r-u-l, l-.y .aud u well rciii.d TWO »»*\u2019\tHTOKF.H.01*1 -nst T»-.iixs F.a*Y TM44K.NY.F.I.AH, ««HIM 8 712 HT.JAMF.S STUFFT H OUSE TO LET.Furnisiit-tl nr I unfiinii*li»sl.wiUiiiiiiiiedlate|x»M4i< i r\t'l '\t' ;.7r,nSe»»IM-l!i .Ù' J A M fJ* IIAYI.ISaHI»N.l*T Notre 1»»m\t> law er to THK DAILY WITNF.HH Is printed and P»'' ',\u20181 ¦\" N,.321 and m Ht.James street, in tb- city ' ' MenUeul.hy Jollli Deugall A Htm.c nirr - 1 - f I >b» Ibd, .H.Dougad.of Mont.cal, .id Jam.\t111 Dougall, of New York.i, "]
