they were given an enormoas spread of canvas for the doldrums, sad their lower spars were as heavy as coaid be pat into them, so they coaid carry sail aboat the Horn.Tradition \u2022ays that in the monsoons and in the trades, where they held their coarse and the winds were steady, great butts used to be hoisted K 7HI BON FRANK SMITH, Min sur -1 thou t Portfoto.have been found, have perished.It is feared many more DEATHS FROM TRICHINOSIS.Ida Gaott, Ja, March 4\u2014Tbe tn'-binotii -as** near this city, tbe resolt of eating Bologna sa jage, are bec'wning more tenons.One more death has occurred and foor new rue«e are reported.There are oow seventeen pereoni whose recovery is doubttnl, and four nave died.MR.GOULD MADE DEFAULT Nbw Yonx, March 4-\u2014Among a numb* r of deliiKoent Jarors fin'd to-day byJudg- Mir.tin* was Mr.Jay Gonld, Tb*- amoint levied on him was $c5o.C.P R.EARNINGS.The grots earnings of tbe Canadian Pacific Railway for January were $1.3\u2018h5,22h.*iJ>.Tbe working exponent for tbe month were SL03S,4M.di ana the net profits 725.22.The gam to net profits over tbe same period of last year is therefore for January, $124.237 i:.The figures include tbe Nr w Brans wick Kail-way.ont on spare to windward and pumped fall of water, as sail after aail wa« added to the ship ; that padlocks were pat on sheet and tack to prevent sail being shortened, and that human life was valued aa nothing compared with the glory of a short passage.Into this heroic contest, the \u201c Marco I'eio\" waa entered, and the ahip, which waa sont ont as a desperate venture, made the shortest passage ever made on her first trip, and con-tinned for many years to be the fastest ship in the trade.At last, ao say the story tellers, the \" Marco Polo\u201d was bnrned to the water\u2019a edge, in the Kaet India dotik, and her grateful owners had her mangled remains towed down to the Isle of Dogs and rebuilt her in the rnoet thorough manner possible.They also built another ship alongside of her, as near as she could be built.But the new \u201c Maroo Polo,\u201d while a good ship, was no wonder, and the rebuilt ship waa positively slow.If the ship of tradition is actua lly the \u2022hip of the story, this probably explains the reason why ahe was a barque and under the Norwegian flag when wrecked Perhaps some of our old sailor readers, of whom there are many, who read these stories with Interest, may be able to throw some light oa the matter.This story was written by Miss Lucy Maud Montgomery, of Cavendish 3-ho«l, ljuoou\u2019o County, P.K.1., and won a special school prize.The story entitled \u201c Incidents of the Patriots\u2019 War\u201d was evidently written by a sympathizer wpb th*' rebellion, who bus piv served a ooupls of incidents which illustrate the feelings between neighbor* at the time.The third story appeals to the pockets o' most l>oys.\t_ THK WRECK OF THK \u201c MARCO POLO.\" In writing an essay for the H\u2019iOun it is not my intention t«> relate any hairbreadth escapes o( my ancestors, for, though they endured all the hardships incidental to the opening up of a new country, I do not think tlu-y ever had any ' air raising a-iveuiures with hears or In-di.kiiN, It is my purp>«ared to which, that iu which the \u201cMaroo I\u2019olo\u201d came ashore was nothing.The tidings spread quioltlv and soon the shore was lined with people gazing with horror stricken eyes at tiie vessel, which, cut up as she was, must inevitably go to pieces in a short time.One can only imagine the agony of the relatives and friends of the poor men at seulug their dear ones in such danger and knowing that they were powerless to aid them.As tor the men themselves, they were fully alive to their danger, for they knew that the vessel could not hold together much longer.Their only boat waa stove in by the fury of the waves so that their sole hope of rescue lay in some Imat being able to reach them from the shore which, in the then state of the sea, was impossible.In spite of the fact that the !>oat was full of water three of the men insanely got into it and tried to reach land.Of course the boat waa instantly swamped and the men left struggling iu the Water.Two of them mauaged to regain the wreck in safety, but the third, a poor French man called Peter Buote, was drowned instantly and, several days afu-r the storm, his body wut picked up some distance away.The horror-stricken onlookers still kept their eyes tiled on the fated vessel, in horrible expectation of the inevitable catastrophe ; suddenly a cry of horror burst from every lip a* the ship was seen to part at the forecastle head and at once go down.The next { eatlon on in different subjects, informed Mr.| (./\u2019oil that he was suspected of being a rebel, and that arrangements had tieen made to have him arrest' d ami lodged in Loudon gaol on the afternoon of that very day, and at the same time advised him to leave the place quietly and ao avoid trouble.Coll made no answer, but, as soon as his neighbor had gone, went u|>stairs to a garret, in which waa stored awsy snob things OAWioouul ofUm wanted, ami brought out seven old muskets that he and his six brothers had used during the war ot 1812, and spent the remainder of the day in cleaning, polinMng, and loading them.Towards nightfall, as he tvaa locking out ol the window, he saw several men approaching his house through the woods, moving cautiously, so as to avoid observation.He at once concluded that they were the men coming to arrest him, and prepared for action.Taking the seven muskets he leaned them against the wall bshiud the door.Then setting his foot (irmly against tbe door so as to prevent it from opening wide he waited for them.In another momenta hand was laid upon the latch and the men were about to enter un ceremoniously, but were rather taken aback w hen they found that the door did not open aa they expected, and that through the small opening which they managed to force, protruded the muzzle of a musket pointing directly in tkulr faces while a loud voice cried out \u201c Who's there.\" \u201c We have come to take you prisoner, a rebel and a traitor,\" exclaimed the leader.In answer to this Mr.Coll showed them the scar of an ugly wound on his arm which he had receiven during the previous war and said, \u201c Dom this show that lama traitor ; I mm m kTaViT' oughly without finding anything to prove hie guilt, they bound him to his horse and were taking him to gaol, but after some consulta tien they concluded to let him go as they were probably loslug the right man while attending to him.No letting him go they went to see the papers had been carried along Taihot street, a road about twelve\tsouth of this place, ztlter the danger had passed, Mr.Coll, who had !>een watching the movements of the men, secured the asaistance of a friend, and they together dug up the papers and carried them to Sandwich without further molestation John Fukki.\u201cA LITTLE JUNK STORK.\" A sTOKY W HICH TKUJ HOMK .STAKTLINd KA(IT4 ABOUT A BOY\u2019S COCKKT.A boy\u2019s pocket D an interesting place, and the multitude and variety of things which find their way Into it is very often amaziug.My young brother, named Park, six years old, has one in which he very often staffs enough to start a small junk store.One day we made him display the contents of one pocket and the following articles came to view ;\u2014Four large links, three buckles, one large ring, four check stones, two umbrella springs, one oonch, one cartridge head, one wooden pin, one pen holder, two Iron nuta, one gun wad, eleven nails, three buttons, one screw, two blocks of wood, one cork, one garter, one freule, two pieces of bark, one bag string, one strap leather, one reel, one staple, one piece of twine, one washer and one piece of bread.That Is quite a variety for one pocket to hold, is it not ?and yet it is but a fair sample of what he carries in it every day.The articles, or contents, when weighed, tipped one pound.\tR, H.Jknkins.A/otiia A H\u2019ion.P.E.I.-4431 pion, 1X10 p m.Bfuemellof, I &6 pro., Boston Nsw York (vis BprliiKfVldl, Mew Ballot Parlor Oars run So ress, dally.ÇJENTEAL VERMONT R.R.Trains leave Benaventare (Halloa, Montreal B.M a.m.\u2014Past Trnla, arriving at M.Albsos, 10.60 \u2022 m., Burtluslon.1110 p m.TkToi 1160 p.n , While Jurer Junotlna, (vis Lowein T JO p m., Ne< 10 p m.Wsensr New Bi Boston.4.M B.M.\u2014New ¥erM Exp arriving et Ht Alban»,8.50 pm.Burllufrton, 6 18 p.m.t Rutland, 10.40 p m ,Trov.1 40 am., Albanp, 1.16 am., Mew York,6.4iaro.Dsllj-IHumUjeiceptedl,ermine Worcester, 6.40 am.Boston, 6.00 s.m (»art in the war ;

thin he smoothed the ground with his hand and roll'd over the place so aa to make it link natural.He slipped his wrists again into the hot ds, as if they had not been loose at all and looked the picture of innocence.After 1 is esptors had starched him thor For Ticket», Time Table» and all Information aptHr to theGompanr'i Office, 136Ht.T«m»« sirtiea.A.C.BTONEGKAVE.Car.sdlan Fa»* A^eul._ ».W.HOBAKT, A.W.CVMMINfiâ Oso\u2019l Manager\tOen'l Fas» Acsok Jan.1Mb.1881.MONfltEAL AND OTTAWA.Trains Leave Bonaveniare Depot al B.OO a.¦¦.\u2014Arriving »t OUawa al 11 30 p.m 6.13\tp.in.-Arriving at Ottawa at 8.46 p.m.Morning Train itnps al Aleiamlrla onljr.< xoept tc lei oil poMenrcr» coming from putoUon Qrand Trans Rallwar Kwitlng Train «Un» al all naUor.i on Canada Atlantia Uallwar Trains Leave Ottawa.MMI iL.m.Arriving In Montreal at 11 36 am 3.00 p.m.-Arriving In Montreal at 1.30 p m.Morulns train (top» at all tUllu'S on Cwiods A* (antic Rallwar livening train ¦t.ms only al Com*!-man asd Alciandria on Canada Atlantic Rallwar.BoftanTraîna leaving Ottawaal 1.46 p m , and arrt*.Ing at Ottawa 11 OOnoon.wlUdo local avrvlas both wara MONTREAL AND 4 ILLE1 FIELD.Trains Leave Benarrntnre Depet nl 0.00 am.\u2014Arriving at Vallerdeld al 10.» am 6.18 p m.\u2014Arriving at VatU-rfleld al 7.36 p.m.Trains Leave Tnllejrleld.7.03 a.m -Arrlvlig In Montreal at 9.00 am.8.13\tpm.\u2014Arriving In Montreal at 7 06 p.m.Abovs Time Titles In eScct Monday.Oot.f7th.UM Company'» outre, IM Ht.Jasm es Street.Bell Tslepbous 671 Ticket* and Beat* In Parlor Car* can also bs Men st Windsor and Bilmeral Hotel», Ticket Offices Bo mature Depot sod 143 Ht.J aines etreei.C.».BMITH.\t».W.DAWMEY.Oea.Pass.Agent, Ottawa Den.Agent, Montreal.E.J.CMAMBERLAIN.«en.Man., Oltawn.£JELAWARE A HUDSON RE RHORTEUT BOCTE TO NEW TORE.SARATOGA TROY, ALBA 4Y, PHILADRLP1UA BALT1MOBI AND WAHHINUTON.AID ALL POINTS HlilTH AND RANT* Releeted by the Govern ment as the Vent» reel end New Verb Mall Une.Trains leave Montreal AM P.M.\u2014Night Express, Wegner's New m-rriT Hi.xiriKo Can rnns through to N«w York wllhoutohanse, arriving la New York at 7.06 am.next morning.Th!» train makes aloae connection at Troy and Albany, with Bleeping Oar Train (or Boston, arriving at 8.30 am.Information given and Tickets sold al Windsor and Balmoral Hotels, all theOrand Trunk Railway OOoss and al tbs Oompany'i office, 1 A3 RA James Rtreet, Montreal.».W.BCKDII It, W.H.HENRY.Oen'l Posa As't., Albany, N Y.eul, \u2022otrtttl flouBoniriiiBiinigs, aie.-W FEATHER BEDS, PILLOWS and MATTRESSES CAN BE RETURNED EQUAL TC NEW Ihe Uiijr arii-r yrcTlpl.The ooatis B M A LI, Th.- reeutt II K A LTH BKDD1NG PATKNTKD Ki»K ITS PURITY.».E.No.1 Little Ht Antoine st .Kttahlùivd ,, Bell T< Irphone IAiO.TOWNMIIEND.corner Bv James si, ONLY, irr JO yzsrs.Federal Telephone 3331./CARPET LATINO, UPHOLSTER yy ING, etc \u2014Carpets Out, Made, Laid.U(t*d sad Ulasnrd, Hbadee, Bprlng Roller», els , supp'led and pat up Mattresses can be retiirneA same asg.HRNRV HAMMOND, 113 and M4 Ht Urbain street ;

Chaftku I.411 don\u2019t think I'm ^oin\u2019 to die ju«t yet.Anyhow I'll hold on'a lon^ as I ean.I always did think folks might generally get v -ll if they\u2019d put thcii minds to it, if they'd t nl)' exert their will power.Still, with my cough, J know I ought to be thiukin\u2019 what\u2019s t> >e dene with what little money I leave ; \u2019twont be so great, the Lord knows.\u201d The woman who ma le this speech looked as grim and determined as her words.She was of the type commonly known as the \u201c New Knglanu but surely the little leaven has leavened the wh do lump, for such women are to be found In every State.Tall and angular, with a bright spot burning on either cheek, and every sentence interrupted by a sharp cough, she yet seemed capable of holding her own for months to come.Ihe room looked like its mistres*.The staring red in the carpet was like another hectic Hush ; the prim horsehair sofa and the comfortless chairs could never lit any other than a stiff back.Her visitor and neighbor, Mrs.Scott, wa of the softer, flabbier kind ; the sort of woman to feel her way and offer meek suggestions.\u201c \u2019Taint no cur\u2019osity oniny part, Miss Hrown, but of course a body uau\u2019t give advice in such a case, \u2019thout knowin\u2019 suthin\u2019 o' the size o\u2019 your property.La ! now\u2014don\u2019t say one word ef you don\u2019t want to ; I was only considerin'.\u201d *\u2022 Well,\u201d was the somewhat cautious reply, \" I don\u2019t know as I mind tellin you somewhere near.If I should die to day, which I ¦han\u2019t unless it\u2019s by a stroke of Providence, I ¦\u2019pose I should leave\u2014let\u2019s see.'* Here followed a careful meutal calculation, but whether really to reckon up the amount of her wordly possessions, or to decide how much to conceal, Mrs.Scott could not determine.41 \u2019Twouldn\u2019t be far from two thousand dollars, 1 guess ; might be more an\u2019 might be less,\u201d with the same cautious but satistied smite.44 Values are so fluetooiiUn\u2019.Hut what to do with it I don\u2019t know.I\u2019m just determined it ¦han't go to the doctors ;

and in the life school as in others, the highest studies often come last.Again her cautious nature asserted itself.\u201c I'll think it over ; there\u2019s no particular hurry about making up my mind ; maybe some other object\u2019ll come up.Don\u2019t say anything, Mrs.Scott, as long as I'm so uncertain, an\u2019 I don't like to have my affairs talked about anyway.\u201d And Mrs.Scott faithfully promised to bo ae silent as the grave, though m her heart she believed Miss Brown's mind was made up.So it was.Next day ensued a visit to the one lawyer's offict\u2014a secret interview In which the lawyer nearly exploded in his efforts to look solemn, but succeeded in receiving his instructions with becoming gravity.A day or two later the will was signed, witnessed and deposited in the safe, after which Miss Brown breathed freer, both literally and metaphorically, looking through the future\u2019s eyes, she seemed to herself an important person.It was noticed that she walked to the cemetery often ; not that that was a strange procedure, for the peaceful \u2022* (Jod\u2019s-acre \" is a favorite strolling place for country folk.The neighbors re marked it, however.They said, \u201c Poor thiiiif, she\u2019s going ju-t as her father did ;

not that she called it so set hack \u201d was the way she put it.She made ready the spare room hy sweeping the carpet which showed no sp*< k of dirt, re makiog the feather Itod to a still higher alti tude, and setting the chair-backs mure tirinly agaiust the chair railing.\u201c There,\u201d said she, when all was complete \u201c I don't believe there's a tatter bed in her own father\u2019s house, for all his in mey.\u201d Miscellaneous.CHILDREN\u2019S CORNER.THK PLAY CORNKR.The ladle which is found iu any kitchen will help us to carry out a nu mber of t-xpi-rl inents in equilibrium, if we want not only to lower the centre of gravity, hut also to trans 1er it to the point of suspension.£ Place a jack knife partly open on the edge of a table, as indicated in the illustration.Hook the ladle to the knife at the angle formed by the blade and the handle, the interior of the bowl facing the table, and then let it go.The knife will sway and the ladle will balance itself until it has found a steady equilibrium.If you load the ladle with sand, the knife far fr>>m falling, will aNsume an upright posi tion that will last as long as the centre of gravity, which is the bowl of the ladle, shall remain under the table.\u2014Churchman.Hertliss Almirt Baows IIcdmUi thl« luarbla .tons ;

in fact it was once the custom to strike medals with chroungrammatic sentences, in which dates of occasions commemorated were set forth by the initial letters of the inscription.Queen Kli/abeth died in the year IGO.'l, and the following chronogram relating to that event has come down to us : My Day is Closed In Immortality, The initial letters of this rentence are ;

the rich, fertile West may flood the country with meat, and make the cattle business non paying ; wool and mutton may sink oven lower owing to the severe competition from Australia and California ; but the maple sugar industry need fear no dangerous antagonism, no impoverishing oompetitioD.\u201d Make a careful note of this, all ye who have sugar bushes I The book closes with a just condemnation of the wild and reckless manner in which valuable orchards of maple trees are being swept away by the woodman s axe.\" \\N ood-man, spare that tree 1\u201d is a voice that the law should lift up iu no ambiguous manner.1 he duty of making new plantations for the use of our children and children\u2019s children also urged with much force.Lindenbask.THE HON.EIR JOHN THOMPSON, Minister ol Justice.Future Meetings.SUN LIFE ASSURANCE CO.OF CABADA X jWds Is LrrrW prw t*eC «A» an»»*;

hearty, sturdy fellow ; so the captain Ui stalled a bright young sailor i?\u201cur\u201cf^na brought his ship to Ixmdon.Now, after a four weeks\u2019 voyage from Wilmington, he was taking train to North Shields, there embark for tho wintry hatherland »nd place tiie children in the care of friends More again taking charge of his ship.It w»s a pitiful little story, hut the altogether admir-1,1,1e part of it was tho motherly attention of the young sailor nurse to the wants of the little one.No mother could have beeo more tender and observant, and the bright healthiness of the child was a splendid comment on tho devotion the young follow had shown.And what an AI.TOOETIIKK RBSPBCTAllEK pair tho men were.Seamen ; hut not \u201ccommon seamoo,\u201d men from a land of Christian training, abstainers from drink, clean in language, and i|uiet!y reverential and devout in bearing towards religious things.\\N hen parte» 1 witli them at Newcastle it was with genuine interest and sincerity tnat 1 hade them \u201cgodspeed\u201d for the last stage of their sad journey.And now my life \u2018®r a week has bien confined to Newcastle and its immediate surroundings, and I fear I have little new to tell of the great straggling grimy villages which lie along each side of the Tyne, and almost melt into each other.It was my fortune to see another new gun-boat towed down towards the 8ca \u2018ro|n.™.r \\Ym.Armstrong\u2019afamons works at hlswlck.A pretty craft men called her, and certainly she looked very peaceful, meekly following tho lead of the little pulling billy of a tug, ¦which looked in comparison something like a blind man\u2019s dog might look when tugging at the string hcM by its master s hand, ihe cun boat lay ver>4ow in the water.It seemed to me that very moderate waves must wash her deck ; hut the knowing ones assured me that she would he a very dry boat and would \u201c ride over everything.\u201d Two of these boats went out to sea tho same day ; another was that day sent off the slips into her native clement\u2019\u2019 (so called because a ship is not horn in the water !).and other war vessels I saw in process of building a little lower down the '' yne.This is tho way the money goes ; this accounts for some of tho twenty million pounds which Parliament voted last year tor the increase of the Rritish navy ; and which the Government is diligently trying to spend.Hut amid all the bustle and industry of this marvellous Tyno-side, I had remarkable proof that prosperity is not the universal rule.1 was taken one morning through tho riverside suburb known as ni«H FKLLIÎKJ, which a few years ago was the seat of probably tho largest chemical factory in the world.Caustic eoda and other allied substance.were turned out here in enormous quantities.Tho works covered hundreds of i res There were miles of railway about tho grounds.A population of tho\u201c\u201c\u201cd.* cathered round tho works, and noble aohools were built for tho children of tho workmen, and other schemes for their benefit were in îîcccssful operation.Now, the whole socne is one of delation.The lomer proprietor still lives by a sort of sufferance In the g house \u201d near the works, but without even the shadow of the former grendeur.The w ^ people have vanished : fo'lo^In8* the trade that has shifted It* centre^ Ihe fine school buildings are ^P0*0*^*\t,,S let ¦\" tho railway tracks have been despolloü dtUr m^riZ tholr brfdg-down.The tall chimneys eUnd U*?giant monuments of departed grea\t.the sheds and factories aro unroofed an l tum v\\.\u201e ni-ee- So vast was the Industry r!.toidtr%wm ».wT»ï.e îSTSTSil^j.»!

Hut,\u2014In the case of the Rev.J.Edgar Hill against the Montreal Street Railway Company clatming $'250 for injury to hia \u201csensibilities and fe- lings, recently tried before Mr.Justice Davidson and a special jury resulting in a verdict of $25, ! maybe allowed in justice to tbe Genii any to submit one or two facts which appeared In evidence, also a copy of tin-letter of apology -em to him the monit-nt 1 learned of the unfortunate occurrence.The letter was aa fullows : Moxtrial, April lx, 1 f»;K), 10a.m.Deaz Mr.Hii.l,\u2014Yours of this morning just received, and I need notsav how extremely I regret tne occurrence.The conductor's name is Hector Langlois.He has not turned up to-day, nor I think likely to do so, but is entered as dismissed from the service.Such infamous conduct must receive the greatest penalty the court can intiict, hut in order to obtain this it will be necessary for you logo to the Recorders Court and take out a warrant for his arrest, in which we will issist you all we possibly caa by bringing as witness the conductor of the bus, and if you will summon Mr.Manley as evidence the case will be fullv complete.I will also see the Recorder on the subject, so that there may be no miscarriage of judgment, this being alike in the interests of the Company, the public, and for your own satisfaction.\"In any event, l will see there is no pecuniary iosatoyour-s- If, and if any damage to your hat 1 will make it good.I aoi very\u2019 sorry to give you tb s trouble, but it is well warth taking.1 havi- again to express my regret at the occurrence, and pray you will accept the anolo-g.t-s of tne Company for the rascal s conduct.Your* truly, E Lvsher, M tnug r.To Rev.J.Edgar Hill, Montreal.The mme and address of the conductor ha \u2022 mg been furnished, he was arrested, j 1 a led gudty and was fined two dollars and a half.I t ¦ be Rsoor ier taking into consideration his previous good character, and haring a wife and large family solely dependent upon him, suspended sentence.The nfortunate man, who acknowledged bu wrong-doing.called upon Mr.Hill to intercede with the Comp my for him.His wife alsombtequentlr called.It was further in evidence, mat tte man up to that date, had borne a gcod character for sobriety and politeness, and that the Company, in the selection of their men, us* every precaution as to préviens character and habits.I do not doubt for one moment Mr.Hill considered (a- his counsel Mr.Lane ao forcibly stated to the jury) that his action was intended to be in the public interest, but it must «Bps ir that the grand principles of \u201c Christian ' and \u2018\u2018forgiveness were greatly strained in tbe performance of this duty.1 may be mistaken, and hope I am.E.LrsazR, Manager.Montreal.March, 18t«l.The concluding paragraph of Mr.Lusher s letter with regard to the Rev.Hill s proceedings against tbe Street Railway Company is uncalled for.There is 00 duty less fulfilled on this Western continent than that of defending tbe public rights upon tbe highway and at tbe bands of public carriers and whoever gives time and money in this manner to the public good should be regarded as a public benefactor.How often even in our courts the man of pnblie spirit gets all the kirks, and it seems that even when he gains his cas» it is necessary for him to run the gauntlet of abuse as a sort of warning to all other independent and manly spirits.So long as it was an affair of punishing tbe employe* Mr.Lusher was as diligent as Mr.Hill, but as Soon a* tbe Company itself was held responsible for having had such a \u201c rascal\" in its employ, be give* the offended public, which Mr.Hill represents, farther and similar ground for resentment.The ignominious way in which the riti/ens of Montreal are daily packed in tbe street cars by a company which hat received at their hands a lucrative franchise, ostensibly for their convenience and benefit, is a daily insult to them, which if th*ir aldermen had half the spirit of Mr.Hill they would long ago have rendered impossible.PERSONAL.Mr.Louis Frechette and Mm.Frechette leave Montreal this evening for California.They expect to be absent about six weeks.Prof.Glnrke, the blind pianist, is to be married to Miss Lachance, who is also blind.The many friends of Mr.Charles Alexander w ill regret to learn that he is confined to his bouse with a severe cold.COMMERCIAL NOTES.Dame Rose de Lima Roberge, wife of J.S.Loyer, boot and shoe merchant, St.Lawrence street, ha» assigned at the demand of Hector Lamontagne, with liabilities of about $:i,out).The largest creditor is Fred.Leroux, for $1,000.THE COURTS DESERTED.Not over half a dozen loung- rs visited the Civil Courts this morning, and even those made but a short stay.As one of them remarked \u201c The only place to look for justice to-day is in the ballot boxes.\u2019\u2019 FIRE THIS MORNING.A lire occurred at 9.30 thn morning ina carpenter\u2019s shop, rear of HH* Drolet street, occupied bv Mr.P.Bugaertia.The place was pretty badly damaged.college settlement.A little group of college graduates were \u2018 t th '\t' jpportunity owed the less fortunate.The ;reat lack in the poor was their haring almost io idea h\u2018 w to niuk< a home.And these stu- Miking one morning about the obligations tho-e whose lives w- re rich in privileges aad opportunity owed the less fortunate.The great \u2018 no dents of Yassar, Wellesley and Smith resolved to establish sympathetic and helpful relations with the people of a certain locality in New York, as a triai of this conviction that had come to them.The residents here were poor, but industrious, and lived up to the light they had.The girls rented a house, had it renovated and pi'aeantiy furnished, engag- d a woman as housekeeper and chaperon, and hired a cook, a man and a maid.Keren college girls go for three month*, nnd then others take their places.Each one pays her weekly dues, and each has her occupation.They charge a small p i; fi h.ir services in the neighborhood, tor their work is n\"t meant for a charity, but to be friends and neighbors and show that labor is honorable ami desirable The music Uacher charges twenty-five cents a lesson, but the music is a small part of what she teaches.Her neat dress, her quiet cultivated manners, her choice us*- of words, is an example to be imitated.The doctor charges five cents Instead of five dollars for a visit, but you may be sure her sanitary suggestions by degrees renovate the atmosphere of tbe house.In tbe basement of this settlement are public bath-rooms, where hot baths an* given at ten cents each.Sometimes the bathers must wait for ea^h other, and while they wait they ask questions of the housekeeper.The women have never had a chance to learn nice cooking, an^they make the most of their opportunity.They hare organized \u201cclubs,\" and in this way reach more than two hundred young people.The value of this work cannot be tola.To tb* boys and girls whose only escape from low, uirty,\" crowded rooms is the street or saloon, what a blessing is an attractive home, where they are welcome.The ideas they gain from

Justice Judd, attempted to form a cabinet which would be favorable to the sugar and oilier interests, but the Queen rejected this m it WAS formed of Europeans.Then several cabinets were formed, but the Queen and her advisers could not agree on any.They finally settled on one with H.A.Widt mann aa premier, bat when this was announced two memb rs of the old cabinet .\u2018aid if she named a new cabinet on the day after the news of Kalaka ia's death was received her selection would have been approved.The delay has caused bitter feeling, and trouble is sure to result.obstinacy or thr

on the Government house.It is reported that the cabinet will refuse to make th'- young Princess KaiUkunia, heir apparent, as she desires to name her ow n son for this place.This son, however, is illegitimate, being a full-blooded Kanaka, so that tbe whites will object.The general opinion among the foreigners of Hi nolulu is that tbe new Queen is obstinate and determined to have more power than King Kalakaua enjoyed, but that she lacks decision of character aiid will probably fail to rsallBa her ambition by temporizing, as sho had done in tbe matter of the cabinet.LAKE SEAMEN\u2019S

late William Weld, of London, Ont., whose tragic death on tiie -ird of last January caused a thrill of sorrow among the wide circle of his friends and stcquaintancet.The following account of the sad event is taken from the Fannert' A'lvorate : ** On Saturday, January 3rd, Mr.Weld was in his usual good health, and attended to the many duties connected with the office of this journal ; he had gone over his afternoon lettern and given Instructions to his assistants concerning them, and later made an engagement with hia chief asaiatant editor to discuss eome important businesa matter! In the evening.He went home about 4.30, whore he chatted with a few members of hia family, who were then just leaving the house, aod was never again aeon alive.lie waa thought to have gone out again, and, not returning at §lx o'clock aa usual, it was supposed he had been detained at his office, aa he frequently waa.About 7.JO hia son, Dr.Weld, went into the bath room, and was horror stricken to there find the dead l«ody of his father drowned in a tank of water, which waa fastened to the ceiling and overhung with a swing window, into which he had evidently slipped head foremost while investigating the cause of a leakage of water, which for some days had given great annoyance.No one was on hand to as-¦ist him ; no one heard his struggles, and from the position in which he had fallen he waa entirely unable to extricate himself.At the time of hia death a maidservant only wa* In the house, and she was out of hearing had the sufferer been able to give any alarm.\u2019 The writer had the pleasure of making the acquaintance of tbs lats Mr, Wsld in the summer of 1H7U while on boiurd the eteamer \u201cCheyenne\u2019\u2019 during a forty hour voyage up the Aealnib&ine from Winnipeg to Portage la Prairie, and on several occasions afterwards wemetand disc muted agricultural subjects with mutual pleasure and profit, and J trust to the advantageof notafew Canadian farmers.The late Mr.Weld was a real John Hull Eng* lishman, and in 1844, being then in hia twentieth year, he came to Canada, and after prospecting for some time he purchased a bush farm in tho township of Delaware, Middlesex County, and settled down to the life of a pioneer farmer, in which he succeeded so well as to be considered one of the most progressive farmers in the province.He took to himself a wife in 1845, and by her had nine sons and two daughters, all of whom survive him, excepting one son who died four years ago.A remarkable circumstance connected with hia largely attended funeral was the presence of his eight eons acting aa pallbearers.Well might the friends of the deceased, while sadly following hts mortal remains to their last resting place, envy the memory of the man who had left eight such sons to carry out the work of furthering the prosperity of this Canada of ours, that was so well done by their honored father.From such rugged farmers\u2019 families is Canada's true greatness derived.Hut it was as the founder, editor and proprietor of Canada\u2019s foremost agricultural journal that Mr.Weld was best known and achieved his greatest success.Over twenty years of active work on a new Canadian farm, together with a large share of good common-senne, gave him the inside track of most agricultural editors, aa he was practically acquainted with the whole process of transforming the \u201cwilderness into fruitful fields.\u2019\u2019 HU good judgment early lod him to adopt and advocate the raUiug of improved stock and tho introduction of new and Improved varieties of seed grain on Canadian farms, and it ia probable that Canada owes more to him for tho improvements that have been made in this direction than to any other ¦ingle individual.There was one subject In which the late Mr.Weld and myself differed for several years, namely, the advantage* to be derived from the use Si ensilage, but latterly he became convinced of its many ad van tages, and I suppose it was in apprecUtlon of my efforts to bring him to the right side on the ensilage question that he otfered mo a favorable position on th* edit>rial staff of the Farmer»' Advocate, Three of Mr.Weld\u2019s sons are following the honorable occupation of cultivating Canadian farms, and two of them, one in London, the other in Winnipeg, are in charge of the Farmer/,' Adt'ccate publications.Another son is a physician and the youngest U connected with the London Lithographing Co., and I am uahamed to aay that another of Mr, Weld's boys has become a ** barrUter-at-iaw,\" for we have far too many persons of that profosion in Canada already.Rosmccs.The Tretaure-of th» Protestant Hospital for the In-tan* acknoalolfrea.«tth thankf, the tolloDinx donation!
