Silver, Republic, formerly known ns the I\u2019nited Provinces of the Rio de la Plata, or in English Silver River, the country being still called after the River La Plata, though it extends to the Straits of Magellan, Buenos Ayres was a great acquisition with its population now of some four millions, and its chief town of the same name, numbering now over thm* hundred thousand people, with immense financial institutions and a worldwide commerce.Buenos Ayres and its enter-prises are giving trouble just now, a commercial collapse and the consequent general distress having atTordcd the occasion for some sleeping volcano of revolution to go into open eruption.Lawukxck, a town in the northern part of Massachusetts, suilered severely on Saturday from a torcado.A portion of a suburb was completely destroyed and eight or ten people were killed and many mors injured.Tor-nadcea generally develop in the centre of great storms which pats over many states.These storms, according to meteorologists, when they travel northwards from the Gulf of Mexico, are dedectod when they reach the New England States by the colder climate and travel eastward to the Atlantia Ocean.Canada has been swept by the skirts of storms which have done great damage on the Northern States where tbe storm centres developed into whirlwinds or tornadoes.The storms which did so much damage tu the crops and buildings in diflerent parts of Ontario yesterday do not seem to have been tornadoes, which are whirling winds, but which blew straight in one direction accompanied by hail.The Civic Contractor appears to be the stormy petrel of the City Hall.If he has an axe to grind the aldermen are sure to dad themselves calling each other bad names before the axe has any edge to it.The contractor never appears and the aldermen nsver call him a Loodler.In the City Council meeting last Tuesday, which decided to do paving to a large extent by day labor instead of by contract, the contractor was not abused, but the aldermen called each other liars and blackguards, acd all that.At the close of tbe meeting, when many had gone, the Council belied itself by suddenly passing a resolution granting an immouse contract for asphalt paving on streets which it had a few minutes previously determined to pave with wood.TVhat greased the wheels of this snap vote' Why did nobody oppose so t sudden a somersault 7 Why was it that Alderman Brefontaice fought so viciously for the Sicilian Asphalt Company 7 It wai cot ap-paiect until the news went about that his law partner and two civic correctors who are his friends were among parties who applied for letters patent ai the Sicilian As-pbaltum Company.It was no wonder Aider-man Prefontaine tried to muzzle Alderman Stephens, and when he could not

PAN-AMERICANS.What is to be done about Mr.Blaine's pan-American allies 7 Pan American means pertaining to tbe whole of America, but with Mr.Blaine it does not include Csnadian, Canada with him being British and therefore not American.But bis genuine pan-Americans, what a pretty kettle of fish they are.The pan seems to be on the boil all the time.Revolution is evidently the normal condition of these Spanish republics.A man with more nerve than his neighbors gets himself appointed a general or elected president, or by a \"sup d'-tal declares himself dictator ; it is little matter by which name he is called, or in which way he becomes supreme.He rules with a high hand and probably lives a Swandslous life.He squeezes millionsannually ont of the eany-going people until another révolution takes place and a new dictator enpersedcs him.So it has been and s> it will be.In one of these republics, out of the twenty-three last presidents twenty-two have died by bullet or by poison.The little republics on the isthmus, rendered independent of each other by impenetrable mountains and inhospitable coasts, perhaps illustrate the tendency to revolution more effectively than the larger countries on the .Spanish main ; but the very largest of the South American countries has Ixen of late in a state of revolution, and because the revolution was the overthrow of a comparatively stable aad constitutional monarchy Mr.Blaine's countrymen sang pa-kns.The next largest country, the Argentine Republic, is now having its turn at anarchy, and men are peppering each other in the streets of the Urge and wealthy city of Buenos Ayres.They are not bad countries t > live in, those tropical and subtropical regions.People have at least an easy life and grow rich fast, which it is well they should, as white men do not live long enough there to grow rich slowly.The white is, iudeed, being constantly eliminated from the population, and the Indian survives ; hence, in Urge measure their instability aad pugnacity.Among the troublera are the Clericals.Sometimes the Church party, which means the Jesuits, controls ; oftener it is in contempt.Neither religion nor irréligion diminishes the prohabili-tien of revolution.The only way to secure peace for Pan-America would be for the United States to take it all under her \"sphere of influence\" and appoint Mr.James G.Blaine, resident, with the general functions of Emperor.If the Yankees have any of theirold time cleverness, they could make money out of the contract of policing all Spanish and Portuguese America, and they would have splendid billets for restless and worrisome people like Mr.Janies G.Blaine.The present revolution grew out of a financial panic, caused by the bursting of railway and laud bubbles which were encouraged by the Government, whose policy was very similar to that called the National Policy in Canada ! under which our own Government has so rapidly augmented the public debt.THE BOYCOTT OF THE NORTH.One of the most romantic ideas which has 1 found its way into Anglo Saxon politics in these later days of tbe nineteenth century Is the method by which Southerners propose to be avenged upon the North for what they call the Force Bill The Force Bill is certainly a pretty vigorous measure, which nothing could justify but the fact that in large sections of the S^uth the negroes have by intimidation, backed occasionally by murder, been continuously hindered from the exercise of their rights as citizens.When the Federal righto of United States citizens ate withheld from them, and when the intention of their opponents to continue that process is determinedly denounced, a high hand is warranted on the part of the Federal authorities, and the enemies of freedom have only themselves to blame.The South recognizes the futility of another war.Some of its leaders have, therefore, proclaimed a boycott against all northern goods,with the double object of intimidating the north by hitting it on its tendereat nerve and of building up Southern manufactures and Southern foreign commerce.There is to I» no unfriendliness against Northerners.On the contrary, they and their capital and energy are to be welcomed when they find themselves forced by the drying up of business in the north to take advantage of the prosperous conditions this boycott will secure to the new South.The scheme i« noble in its conception inasmuch as it assumes the most unexampled self sacrifice on the part of Southerners.It has also a poetic justice about it inasmuch as it is calculated to remind the North that forced servitude is not the lot of the negroes only, nor supported only by the children of the slaveholders.It is aimed at the Northern protectionists who have held all their countrymen, and notably their unwilling Southern fellow citizens, in bondage, requiring them to do one third more work for their living and pay that third in the shape of tribute to Northern tn&nu/aoturors.Tho earnest people in England who gave up sugar because it was manufactured by slave labor, were not more self-denying than the Southerners would be in enforcing this embargo on all goods from the section benefited by the tariff.The great difficulty about the whole scheme is its impracticability.How many Southerners are likely either to give up aujthing they want or to pay a considerable addition to its already greatly enhanced price for the sake of punishing some distant Northerner 7 Even suppose the whole population to be moved with a common patriotism to the most heroic self-denis), how would they know northern goods ?Would these not immsdiately appear at their ports in all sorts of foreign guber ?We are inclined to think there will not be any boycott to speak of.FIRES AND FIRE AL4P.M3.8:me rubbish

FOR A MOHALITT INSl'EOrOR.(To Ike JUUor of the WitrljU ) Sib,\u2014At the latter part of last week it was reported in yonr columns that a deputation consisting cf Alderman Rolland and Major Botid attendsd before tbe Police Committee on behalf of tbe Citizens' League petition to appoint an inspector to slop illicit liquor selling aud other crimes against society.After the object of tba petition had been lucidly stated by the gentlemen named, pointing,out that in the Province of Quebec no office existed corresponding with that of public prosecutor, the Provincial Government recognized this and gave special powers to iU collectors of revenue, and bad also a polioe inspector with a at»If.Tbe Government, however, only looked after the revenue ; it did not trouble about the moral side, and I have heard it said that periodical raids are made upon illicit liquor idlers only wbru the Government coffers have urgent need of replenishing, as is avidenood by the fact that the seine persons are on-victed time after time for tbe same off-mot oft-repeated, and ths fines ia which they are mulcted are cheerfully paid.Id a recent notorious case io the criminal courts, it came out in evidence that the keepers of disorderly hontes twho are also uohseosed retailers of liquors) ave a good round sum in reserve to mee: the contingency of a prosecution.Allusion was also made to the deputation to the faot thst m Toronto such office of public inspector ol m irait already existed, and that the appointment had been attended with very beneficial results, of which I can bear testimony.Major Bond proceeded to say that they needed a man whose heart was in tbe work, who would be ready to rectify avils, and that such a man would ha an undoubted succoss.Alderman Jeannottedid not see what an inspector could do if appointed, and made theastouishing assertion that attar five years t be lospector would be as rich si he was, quoting his experience of tbe Government inspector whon akesmoney, aud saying oracularly, \"choose the most honest mao you like, aud put him amongst robbers ; io a month or two he will ba the chirf of them !\" AU I can say is, suth Du-gusge does not aay mnah for tba social atmosphere In which Alderman Jeaunotte moves, which is emphasized by the fact that he after wards admitted that he had not studied this question much.The matter appears to have been discossed id tbe usual desultory manner of this angust body, composed of men of light and leading, with derogatory remark* interlarded by the chairman and (O I yo gods aud little fiihe» !) tbe Chief of Police.On Alderman McBride moving that an inspector of morals be recommended at $1,000 salary, the chiei retorted that he wouldn\u2019t lake it for $-5,000.Conimsnt is neediest.I w.u'd also particularly allude to the statement made by tbe Chief of Police, in calling the Committee's attention to what a judge had said, that a man who shot another for entering bis place without a warrant might not ba fonud guilty of murder ! My answer to that is \" both ! \" and I will undertake to say that no judge in hi* sober senses (and judges are proverbially sobir) over ex- Eressed such an idiotic opinion.Mr.Editor, it i to me a matter of tne gravait concern to see such an apathetic feeling so own by men (with a few laudable exception») who ought to hold the welfare of the city paramount Only in your utne of to-day I see it is an-pouneed that the Citizens' League ha* closed up the efiite, finding that under the existing law and by the policy of working through \" tbe constituted authorities \" its scops is very limited.Constituted authorities, forsooth ! To ass *a Au trioanism, \"it makes me feel tired\" to see such s conglomeration of \"Hairey Garupi \" and \" Betey Pngs \" who constitute tbe powers that be.The Police Department of Montreal is a faithful reproduction of tbe famon* Circumlocution Office portrayed by Charles Dickons, where they \"wanted to know, you know.\" and had such a wonderful development of talent in the art of \"how not to do it.\u2019* I unhesitatingly affirm that itlieit liqnor selling ought to be looked after by the ponce, gambling in all forms ought t> be seen to by the police, and disorderly benses ought to be suppressed by the police, under statutes made and provided.Ttesc matters are done better in England, whether from tbe fact of a higher stats of civilization existing there or otherwise I leave your readers to form their own opinion from the fol lowing : In a well-known city in England, there exists a most excellent society formed in the nterests cf perity, and the members thereof are ediee aud gentlemen of earnest Christisn pro clivitics and all shades of religion\u2014to wit, the respective bishops, clergymen.Nonconformist ministers, magistrales, merchants and lawyers, which latter do not look at anything or everything which t* calculated to promtte tbe welfare of their fellow beings with a darkened understanding ; and permit me to whisper, good sir, that tho chief constable of tbe city I allude to is a member of this lame so-c ety, and not one of the least activa The objects of the society are the protection of young girls in particular, having cognizance of anything that may tend to déprava tbe oominnniiy is general, snob aa immoral literature, tbe existence of homes of ill fame and gambling.The expenses of tbe society are defrayed by voluntary subscriptions, and it bat a reliable.Godfearing man as offiter, together with several of tbe gentler sex as assistant!, who am enthusiastic in their work, and from a personal knowledge I can speak with certainty of the good resulting thertfretn.The officer of the society is empowered to call upon tbe police, as necessary, similar to Toronto, in the performance of his unsavory work, and he, with female assistants, attend the police conrls daily, boinp treated with tbe utmost courtesy, and receiving every assivtsnoe from tho permanent officials of the courts in their endeavors to reclaim the erring ones from their evil ways.Affiliated with the society now referred to, is a Prison Gate Mission, whose members meet the discharged prisoners of both sexes after having undergone their various terms of imprisonment, when they return once more to tbe world friendless aud forsaken, and are kindly invited to accept a ticket entitling them to an nnitlnted supply of coffee and broad and kuttor,which can be obtained in rooms provided for tbe purpose contign ms to the prison.And just here is where the all-important work of the ladies comes in.Hear this, ye Uebes and Dianas of Montreal, that thons ladies will think nothing of rising betimes in ths morning, and driving soire four or five miles, or coming oven a further distance by train, in order to carry cut their labor of love in serving their lets for-Innate listers, reiz ng the opportunity to offer werds cf advice, and in many instino**, substantial assistance, and it goes without say-icg, with excellent results, The rosie pri vonert on tbsir discharge are oared for similarly by earnest men.Oh ! it ia a grand sight ; yet tears come to my eyes as I write at the recollection of heartrending scenes I have witnessed.One more point, and I am through.Tbe chairman of tbe Police Oommitteo said he had no objection to make a trial in the matter cf inspector of morality in Montreal ; \"bat,\" he continued, \" if yon can find a single city where these things are stopped, go to Toronto and see.\u201d I eannot say much in tbe case of Toronto, having only made ono brief visit to that snperb city, but, all tta same, am willing ta accept Major Bond\u2019s word for it.This I do know, and would revpaetfally call the alderman\u2019s particular attention to the fact that in the city of Manchester, England, in 1H35, there existnd ov«r thrre hundred disorderly honses, t.e, houses of ill fame, known to tbn police, and in lias than two years, owing to the action of the Hociety I have mentioned, they were reduced to less than onesixth of that number.Again, in the spring of 1895 in tbe iac o city there were 74 clnbi, 19 of which were betting clubs absolutely and 5* had billiards, cards, and so forth.The clubs paid no license ; young men who would not ba allowad by their parents to go to a publie house or a saloon went to these clubs and drank end gambled, and remained there till very late at night.Now, mark this: Within six months the whole of.those places of unlicensed wickedness and gambling and drinking were closed by tbe energetic action of that lelf-iame Society ; the proprietors were prosecuted and mulcted in tines ranging from $100 to $500, amounting in tbe aggregate to $18,000, in addition to the costs of the prosecution, all of which was paid by ths respective defendants.A little over two vears ago several men were proceeded against for printing and publishing filthy literature at the instance of the Society before named.When arrester! they possessed a sum equal to fifteen thousand dollars, tbe fruits of th«ir infamous trattio.They were afforded a long and patient trial, were convicted and sentenced to terms of imprisonment, the costs of the prosecution and the cost of their maintenance when undergoing sen-tense being defrayed out of the money found upon them, I think I have said sufficient to show what can be done by men who are guided by the divine ptecept\u2014\" Fear God and keep His com-mandatent*.\" Gome, then, my brothers and sisters, and let ns unite in n long pall and n strong pnll and n pnll altogether, in order to promote\tPuRIttf.July 12th, 1890, CITY LIQUOR LICENSES.(fo the Mditor of ike Witneti.)

and the Itbor about the palace is ao subdivided that no one works very hard except tho Lord High Chamberlain and Tieasorcr of tha Household.Tne Chamberlain ia mostly occupied in administering to tho wants and oapricea of the Snltau, and ia in almost constant attendance upon him ; so the Treasurer ol toe Household has the burdon of the housekeeping on his burly ahoulders.Ho has an niganizod force of buyers, who are each charged with the purohaaa of cottain supplies for their individual departments, each having hit helpers, servants and ilaves.One man is charged with the duty of supplying all the fish, and as to furnish fish for at leart six thousand iwrtons is no light undertaking in n place where there are no great market* such as there ars in all other Urge oilias, he has to have about twenty men to scour the varions sma'l markets and buy of the fishermen, ai d each of these men has two others to carry the firh they buy.About ten tons of fish a week are irquircd.There are nearly eighteen thomaud puioda of bread eaten daily, for the Turks are Urge broad caters, ond this is ail bsked m the tnormoua ovens aitnated at some dis\u2019ona* front the palace.The food for the Suliau is c >oke 1 by one man and his aids, aud no others touch it.It is cooked in rilver ve*ssN, aod wh-.-n done erth kettle is sealed by a rlip of paper and a stamp, and this is hr-'kon in the presotca of the Sultau by the High Chamberlain, who takes ono spoon fal of each ¦\u201c\u2022parate kettle before the §ultan tastes it.This is to gnard against poison.The food is almost always served up to the dultan in the same vcsrels in which it was cooked, and these are often of gold, but when of baser metal the kettle is set into a rich golden boll shaped holder, the handle of which is held ty a slave while the Sultan esta.Each kettle represents a coarse and it served with bread and a kind of pancake, which it held on a golden tray by another slave.The Hulun never me* a plate.He takes all his food direct from the little kettles, acd never uses a table and rarely a koifo or folk\u2014a spoon, his bread, a panetko or fingers are fourni far baedier It require* just twice a* many tlavt* as there aro courses to serve a ditmer to him.KILLII) ON THI TRACK.Bblibvii.lt, Ont., July 2d.\u2014Wm, Brett, an old resident of Foxboro, was struck and instantly killed by a train on the Grand Junction, near that place yMtcrday afternoon.Deceased, who waa about 70 years of age, was vary deaf, and failed to hoar the whittle when it was blown.a LirxiB nor kills me plat mats.Sr.CathsBINKR, Ont., July 2any'a bridge over the Si Lawrano* About 1,700 people present came from Ottawa by special train.Evervthing passed off most successfully.A baseball match between the mechanical and traffic departments resulted in victory for the trattio.A lacrosse match bo-tween the Young Crescent* and the Ottawa* ended in a draw.Foet and other races, throwing the hammer and other sports wound up with a tug of war between the traffic and mechanical departments, of which the mechanicali pulled beat.Everything passed otf most happily, the day and place being equally enjoyable.The excursion train left the island for Ottawa on the return trip at 5 45 p.m.with twenty-one care loaded with the happy picnickers.THE COTE ST.ANTOINE FIRE.A Cote St.Antoine resident acoonnta for the absence of salfioient water at the fire by the fact that the watsr supply reaches as far as the Shamrock Lacrosse grounds iu au eight-iuch pipe, but the Cote takes its supply from the city in a four inch pipe, which be declares too small for the service required of it this morning, Two of Mr.Paul's clerks were somewhat scorched in their efforts to save the goods at the branch store, but it is learned from the town store, that neither of them are seriously burned, though rumor had magnified their injuries to very serious proportions.Mr.K.L.de Bellefeuille, lawyer, of 90 St.James street! was the owner of the Hue stone block occupied by Mr.Paul's grocery, and which was totally destroyed.It was insured in the North British for $3,000 ;

HIS WIPE.Philadelphia, Fa., July 25.\u2014The cablegram from Munich announcing that Count Maximil ian Pappenheim had ceased to be a oonnt, ani that his wife, n/c Mies Msry Wiiter Wheeler, was not a countess was the leading topic of die cussion in fashionable circles here, where the marriage not long since was celebrated with so mnch éclat.Ludwig, the brother of Maximilian, upon whom the title falls, is well knowu to Philadelphians.He came over with hi* brother and was present st the wedding.Those who are in a position to know express the opinion that the troubles that have arisen about the newly-married couple were not entirely unexpected by the Wheeler family.The trip of \"Dick\" Elliot, the bride\u2019s brother in law, to Europe, prior to the marriage, is recall'd in connection with the news just received.At that time it was stated that his misaioo bad rtferuncB to the purchase of a title for the future countess, but this was denied by the family Then it was reported that be had gone over to lock into the financial standing of the oounl.Pending his return the marriage took place.A peculiar condition of affairs is presented in relation to the contract entered into by Maximilien to pay off the mortgages on the property, which is now under public administration.If, as has been stated, Maximilian had the option of resigning his claim upon his wife or his title, his action in relinquishing the latter show* that his marriage was influenced by love rather than by worldly matters.ROBBERY AT SEA.New York, July SS \u2014Henry Allison, John McNarrsra and James Tynan,

THE SEIZURE OF A STILL, WHICH MABCFArrilW WHIflKIT BT TH» AID Of ¦CLPHATH Of COPfXB.Few persona would for a moment have «opposed as they passed along Sa Chavle* Birrom-acee street, in tha immediate

ia a respectable looking cut (tone house, and from the outaide appearance would be taken for the rendeuce of a gentleman.The vigilant eye of an excise officer, however, detected evidence that all waa not quite right about the premises ; and io, working up bia case, quietly, with well arrang'd plan, Mr.J, A Watkins, one of the moat ?fraeot officers, came sudden ! y down open the place on Saturday morning, and captured the still in operation ; hut the distiller bad fied.Thia sail, which has a capacity of 75 gallons, ia eatunatrd to be worth $500.It wa* seized and carried away, together with all the fixtures.That an exteoaire bun nets waa being done, was evident from the fact that l,.Yi0 gallons of liquor in p>ro-orsa of manufacture was discovered and da atroytd, together with the eight fermenting tone io which it waa contained.A jar waa also discovered containing about a half gallon of aul pbate of copper, a deadly pxiiaon, which ia used to increase the strength of the liquor when it falls below the required degree, and which increases the deadly effect of the Montreal whiskey, the reputation of which haa become proverbial.The penalty for keeping an illicit ¦till rangea 9100

OUTLOOK.From preaent appearance the oat crop throughout a large portion of thia province ia going to be oaorually light and in many places will not produce half an ordinary crop.Several wenka ago the

brute vitb Ibeir heavy arbip handles moat unmercifully.*0 mush *0 that when they let go the poor bound lay and writhed in agony, suffering ao much that it oculd not ataod upon its feet.The blood oored

poor d 3g.A rough looking bully, who had been conversing with the men, replied it was \" none of his d-d boai- neaa.\u201d Tbe gentleman replied it was bia boai neu, whereupon the holly came forward and threatened to kick him for interfering in tbe matter.The poor bound waa then lifted and put across the back of one of the bones and taken away.Another gentleman, whose name has been secured, witoeased tbe affair from Mie window of bia bouse, and aa tb« inhuman men on horseback reached Bt.Urbain street be aaid that they both ahonld b« tbemaelvea flogged.Such inhuman conduct be bad never
