and te determine whether or not this company shall issue its bonds in the sum of $20,000 per mile of its road, to be secured by mortgage on its property and franchises.\u201d RAILROAD PROJECTS IN THE NORTH-WEST.Pursuant to announcement the directors of the North-Western Narrow Gauge Railway met at Minneapolis last evening and proceeded to discuss the feasibility of coa- structing additional lines of railroad, but the \u201c gauge\u201d was changed very materially.The sentiment was largely expressed in favour of the broad gauge, and more especially as assurances were received from eastern parties that the directors would receive their cordial encouragement and material aid as soon as work was fully inaugurated.With these assurances the directors present at the meeting last night expressed themselves unanimously as in favour of inaugurating operations upon one or two lines as soon as the weather will permit in the spring.The first m order -and importance will be a broad- gauge line between Minneapolis and St, Cloud, running on the west side of the Mississippi River.It was decided to turn out a corps of engineers as soon as the season permits for the purpose of selecting the most feasible route between the points named, and with a view of ultimately extending the road from St.Cloud to the wheat fields of Manitoba.There are railway compauies already in existence which consider that fertile territory worth reaching at the earliest practicable moment.From Colonel Peteler, who was in Min~ neapolis yesterday, we learn that the latest railroad scheme affecting Minneapolis\u2014ihe construction of what is to be known as the Minneapolis, Shakopee and Minnesota Valley Narrow Gauge Railroad\u2014is fairly booming, aud the early construction ot the road is already assured.A meeting of the parties interested will be held at the Town Hall in Richfield on Monday, at which time it is expected the Company will be organized with a capital stock of $200,600, and sutherity,to increase the same as may be required.A number of the leading citizens of Minneapolis have become actively interested im the scheme, and it meets with universal favour from the solid men all along the proposed route, namely: From Minneapolis to Shakopee, and thence up the Mississippi valley on the west side of the river, with a branch running south from Shakopee.The first thing done will be to secure right of way and terminal facilities in Minneapolis.Then so soon as \"stock subscriptions warrant it, twelve miles of road\u2014from Minneapolis to Nine Mile Creek, in the town of Bloomington\u2014will be constructed and equipped, from whence it will be constructed and equipped to Shakopee at the earliest moment possible.Colonel Peteler is confident, judging from the enthusiasm in favour of the subject, that the early spring will see this road completed and in operation to Shakopee, and that it will be pushed much further than that before the close of the coming season.\u2014St.Paul Press.WEKELY REVIEW OF THE HAVANA MARKET, Havana, January 31.SvcARs\u2014Under the influence of continued adverse news from the United States this market has ruled at a constant decline and prices at the close show a consider able downfall as compared with the opening ones.The markets on the coast have followed this downward course, and busi- RR ness there has even been more restricted than here.i According to last sales, quotations to-day must be altered as follows :\u2014Clayed, No 12, current classes, 8 /@ 8% ra;

and indiscriminately strack down ; that the villainy should not have been confined to a single household; and tbat the murder should be supplemented and complicated by arson, all render this crime one of exceptiomal atrocity.That it could be deliberately planned and executed by a considerable number of neighbours, all living oasten~ sibly like honest, quiet, and perhaps religious men, without any of them interfering by remonstrance, or failing remonstrance, by more active measures of repression, is not the least remarkable part of the extraordinary circumstances.The cruelty and injustice of such wholesale vengeance might have been thought so striking as to bring the design to a stop, so soon at least as it came to be canvassed by more peraons than the one or two by whom it was originated.Nor is it less strange that no fear of consequences intervened to stay such utter added to recklessness of moral consider ations, before such a party of assassins could have been brought together for so desperate a deed.À single man keeping within his own breaat a horrible secret, which he knows can be divulged only at the hazard of his life, may feel some security that, in default of material evidence, no tongue will reveal his intentions before hand, nor his deede after they have been emacted.But when a number of persons so great es that which is believed to have been concerned in the Donnelly murder is banded together, all experience proves that continued secresy becomes highly improbable.They have families who are observing them ; they have suspicious communications among themselves which are watched ; and sooneror later investigated ; there is some one more faint-hearted or more conscientious than the rest, who, if he does not break down with the burden of guilt before its accomplishment, is pretty sure at lawt to make a clean breast of it, in order to save either his soul or his body.None of these considerations were sufficient to prevent the dastardly plan from being carried out to its truly bitter end.The possibility of discovery and punishment, indeed, does not appear to have wao'ly escaped attention.But, as we judge from accounts which reach us from the neighbourhood, there has prevailed a firm faith in what we may almost call the freemasonry of members of this hideous conspiracy.The victims were so gem- rally detested ; the desire to get rid of them was so intense ; the appetite for vengeance was 80 keen and universal as to cause the executioners of the popular sentence to be regarded as benefactors, and to make secrecy look like a plaingind imperative daty.There have been\u2014we fear we must say there are communities where such a presumption of impunity would not be without strong grounds for ite support.Iu spite of the far stronger reasons which prompt to betrayal, common hatred does some times close the ligs of persons of ordinarily decent life, against the revelation of astounding crimes, in which they thus become accomplices ; going at last as far as perjury, when silence is no longer possible.But hitherto there has been no suck ferocious animosity among the inhabitants of Canada, and God forbid that the day should come when approbation of crime, fear of personal consequences, or a mistaken sense of honour, shall deprive society of its safeguards by drying up the very source of justice through the reluctance or prevarication of witnesses, Still the dreadful affair carries an important lesson with it, when we see that men, not altogetier lunatic, believe that the guilsy will escape, and no doubt believed from the first that they would escape, through organized silence on the part of those who could convict them.It is evident that the state of things which led up to this multiplex murder was exceedingly evil.Under the ordinary aspect of a quiet village there Was a feeling as embittered as that of a Corsican blood feud ; and this on the one side arose from a conviction that the really peaceful and honest inhabitants had no adequate protection against a family of desperados.What is professed by those who sp on behalf of the criminals, and probably speak the sentiments of the criminals, is that they were driven to this means of getting rid of a nuisance which had become utterly intolerable by finding that, practically, the law left them with out redress for very grave wrongs.How far this opinion was justified, we shall not know till the complete history of the murdered family comes out.Unless they are very much maligned, however, it is obvious that they and the officers of justice have had frequent interviews and that these have, on some occasions, arisen out of crimes of the most heinous description, which public report, rightly or wrongly, laid at their door.It is lamentable that there should, anywhere, be the slightest ground for the impression that justice must be administered by amateurs, or that it will not be administered at all\u2014that wrongs of various kinds may be repeated with such impunity as to encourage fresh repetitions.But we fear that this impression is not always without some not wholly irrational basis.We apprehend that scmetimes in Canada, as elsewhere, the \u201c quality of mercy is not strained\u201d enough, and that more than one villain has met with the compassion which would have been more fitly bestowed on the victims of his past and of his future misdeeds.It seems, moreover, that the Justices of the Peace in the neighbourhood of this tragedy are thought to have been more inclined to procure compromises for offenders than to visit them with the fitting chastisement.But if we were to generalize a little, and so to depart from the desecrated village where the burm ed walla and blood-stained floors furnish a melancholy text for this discussion, we should say that the greatest relaxation of necessary strictness arises out of the weakness or perversity of jurors.It is not many weeks since a respectable journal in the city of London, not far removed \u2018from the now notorious Lucan, did not hesitate to affirm that, to its knowledge, a verdict of acquittal had been practicably suborned and procured before the trial of a homicide came off.We fear that this happens much more frequently than it is made publie ; and the instances are still more numerous when criminals escape from the mere ignorance or foolish pity of jurymen.Of course, there is a degree of legal impunity for offenders, whether it arise from defects in the law or in its administration, when society becomes disintegrated, and resolved into individual elements, each man protecting himself, or associated neighbours protecting each other by the high hand\u2014 by the private pistol or the public adjudications of Judge.Lynch in his open air courts.We have not yet come to that, but it may be well worth consideration, whether we should not so brace our moral fibres as to prevent any approximation to such a disastreus condition.The names of the suspected men, as well ag of the persons murdered, indicate the nationality of all the parties who seem to be mixed up in the horror, and, as we gather, they all belong to the same class.If this be eo, the circumstance, iv is to be hoped, will spare us from the new and fierce partizan contention, which would, otherwise, almost cert :in- ly have arisen as the complement of the past controversy, of which the last reply has been of so fearful à character.RELIEF FOR IRELAND, In response to the appeal of the Duchess of Marlborough, Mayor Rivard has caused a subscription list to be opened at the City Hall.The Mayor and Alderman Nelson have begun the goed work of writing down for them selves the sum of one hundred dollars each.There ean be no question now as to the pressing nature of the call fer relief, and it is to be hoped that our citizens will premptly respond to the barbarism., There must have been a notice given in the Mayor\u2019s Proclama MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, § SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1880, high degree of folly or thoughtlessness, } tion, which appears in the city newspapers.\u2018The list has been placed in tbe City Treasurer\u2019s office, where it awaits subscribers.In a matter of such urgent necessity, however, we think some further action should be taken to secure subecriptions.If collectors are not appointed by the City Hall authorities, there ought to be supplemental lists placed in central and accessible places, such as the Merchants\u2019 Exchange and Mechanics\u2019 Institute Reading Rooms.The truth is thera ought to have been a public meeting convened by the Mayor for this purpose fully a month ago, and by this time he ought to have been ir a position to remit ten thousand dollars.We do not say that our Mayor is to be blamed for the delay, but it is now quite plain that Montreal 18 behind hand in this pressing matter, and her action halting, disjointed and not altogether creditable.The distress has now become appalling in certain parts of Ireland and weare sure that our citizens, if properly approached, would have given before this time as noble à response as they did in the memorable famine year more than thirty years ago.The call for relief is not to any particular parish or congregation.It is to the citizens of Montreal of all parishes and congregations.And the work to be done in meeting the oall ja.mgre than mere parish work.It balongs to the general public.And since the city authorities have taken it 1n hand, as representatives of the general public, we hope they will not be «lack in their efforts, but press it vigorously and earnestly, as the urgency of the case demands.\u2014\u2014 THE LATE LIEUT.~GoVERNOR CHAR D- LER.\u2014This gentleman, whose death occurred at Fredericton, yesterday (Fri day), was born at Amherst, Nova Scotia, in 1800, in which place he was educa:ed.He occupied a number of prominent poti- tions in his native Province.He was a Judge of Probate for Westmoreland County at various tim:s, and for lengthened periods was a member of the Executive Council of New Brunswick, He was a delegate to London, 1833, on the Casual and Territorial Revenues; to Toronto with the late Hon.Joseph Howe, 1850, on the subject of Intercolonial Railway; a second time to London, 1852, with Mr.(now Sir F.) Hincke, on Intercolonial Railway ; t> Halifax, same year, with Hin.Messrs.Tache, Hincks and John Young, on same subject; to Quebec, 1854, to complete lezislation on aubject of Reciprocity Treaty ; to

to replace the both-sided, chameleon-coloured, Mr.Chauteau, whose sole consistency was his keen regard to the main chance, has been issued.The nomination takes place on the 3rd March, when it is to be hoped, if there be a contest, it will be between better men than he who now presides over one of the Courts in the Ancient Uapital.Some say that justice is blind, others represent it by a pair of evenly balanced scales.Mr.Chauveau represented the former, when it was made worth his while.Possioly he can impersonate the latter, but will he do 80, aud will he take as his motto Fiat Justitia ruat coslum ?Tt appeared very much as if his legend had been Fiat Chauveau, ruat Quebec.THE BONAVENTURE STREET WIDENING.To the Editor of thé MONTREAL HERALD, SIR,\u2014I beg to take exception Lo your article in this morning\u2019 HERALD on above subject.To say nothing about the merits of the expropriation law, as 1t Bow exists, and which eannut be changed for the oecasion\u2014if there ever was an improvement which warranted a general distribution of the cost over the whole city this is the one.In its present state, it 18 simply a public disgrace, and its removal will equally redound to the credit of the entire commanity.First impressions go a great way with strangers, and it will require a large amount of civility and good cheer to obliterate the prejudice of having to run-a-muck from our shamble depot through the present nauseating street, with its architeetaral ugliness, notwithstanding its uneuphonious though saintly name, Now, what pecuniary advantage can the widening of this street be to local proprietors ?It can never be anything but what it now ig, an approach to and from the Depot.The adjoining streets of St.Joseph and St.Antoine are old established business thoroughfares, which cannot be disturbed, and there is no warrant for any more shop-territory for years to come, so that I claim there is no analegy of circumstances in comparing this widening with Notre Dame street, which, though an apparent want at the time, has not resulted so favourably as its projectors imagined.Se discouraging are the prospects that, on inquiry, I find few proprietors on Bonaventure street will rebuild at present.The enigma has got to be solved, what the character of the widened street will e.Su far as I can judge, with the practice prevailing in other cities, the limits to bs taxed are too circumscribed, and should include a certain range of al the lateral streets leading to the improvement.Permit me to hope that there should be no short-sighted selfishness to retard anything that will help on the growth of our city and make it in any way attractive to strangers.Five ordinary strangers will spend more money in a given time than ten residents, and we are far behiad oyr neighbours in appreciating any efforts to stimulate intercourse and promote business, PROGRESS.Montreal, January 30, 1880.[If there is any logic in this letter the conclusion it brings us to is that the street should not be widened at all, The writer speaks for the proprietors, and says they do not want it, and fear that they will lose money by it, as he also says the proprictors in Notre Dame street are likely in the long run to do from the widening of their street.Then whky do not the proprietors in Bonaventure street protest against being saddled with a losing business

say that the object of ite appearing at the present time is very apparent, it is to injure Dr.Christie in his candidature in that county by making unfounded charges against me, and trying to hold him responsible for them.| The part I took in the election of 1878 I took independently of Dr.Christie and without his knowledge or solicitation, and I alone am responsible therefor.The charges made against me are false, and the only justification the Gazette has fur them is the ex parte testimony of à man McNaughton, who is a fugitive from justice, and against whom 1 Lave clear and convincing

taken from a contemporary : \u2014 On the morning of the 38rd February a Boston newspaper thus came out on Mr.Vennor : \u201c Unless we have a heavy snow to-day drifting badly and causing railway blockades, Prof.Vennor, the Canadian weather prophet, will please take a back seat.This false prophet business is fully as unpopular now as it was eighteen hundred years ago.\u201d This paragraph was read by thousands in Boston that day, while one of the most terrible snow-3torms experienced in a number of years raged oui- side.The National Ice Company of New York are interviewing Mr.Vennor as to the future behaviour of the wiater, and have requested him to furnish them with a special prediction.By a fortunate coincidence the \u2018\u2018 prophet\u2019s\u201d last bulletin forecasting a heavy snow-fall with drifts and cold weather for the entry of February, was copied in allthe leading American newspapers.Mr.Haynes Lord, of New York, writes to Mr.Vennor: \u201c Some say you got at it by figuration, others say it was guess-work.Will you be so kind as to inform me whether it was by figuration or guess-work?\u201d Peterboro, Oat., offers him a torch light procession.Ix

PRINCESS.His Excellency the Governor-General and Her Royal Highness the Princess Louise left for Ottawa yesterday morning.By half-past eight o\u2019clock a large crowd of people had assembled within the depot to witness the departure, Facing the royal car was a guard of honour composed of a company of the 65th Ritles, headed by the band of the regiment.About half.past nine cheers announced the approach of His Excellency and the Princess, the guard of honour presented arms, and the band struck up the English National Anthem.Her Royal Highness was dressed in black, and wore a seal-skin cap and muff ; while His Excellency was attired in a light suit with a light-coloured overcoat and greyish fur cap.After a few motnents conversation with the officers assembled.among whom were Lieut,~Col.Harwood, Lieut.-Col.Fletcher, and Col.Dyde, the Princess entered the car and joined the ladies of herjsuite, who had preceded ber.His Excellency remained outside uatil the train started, chatting with the group around him, which had been further augmented by the arrival of Mayor Rivard.During the delay the Princess again made her apvearance, but remained in view only for a few minutes.At a quarter tojten o'clock the preliminary whistle was sounded,and a few minutes later the train steamed out of the depot, to the music of \u201c Vive la Canadienne,\u201d played by the band of the 65th Regiment, CORPORATE AFFAIRS BOARD OF HEALTH.A meeting of the Board of Health was held yesterday afternoon, Ald.Allard in the chair.There were also present Alds, Fairbairn and Genereux, Messrs.Weaver and Shelton, and the City Snrveyor.The Medical Officer's report was as follows :\u2014 \u2018\u201c The total number of deaths from all causes during last week amounted to Ts, or 6 more than during the previeus week, but 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.This mortality represents an anpual proportion of 28.88 per 1,000 of the population.One death occurred by.typhoid fever, or the sawe number as during tbe previous week, but 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.Seven deaths took place from phthisis, or 5 less than during the previous week, and 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.Seven deaths occurred from small-pox, or 1 Jess than during the previous week, and 11 less than during the corresponding week last yesr.Of this number 6 were not vaccinated, and 1 was reported as vaccinated.Six deaths took place in the Eastern part of the city and 1 in the Western part.The streets in which.most of the deaths from this cause took place were : St.Mary, 2, and Beaudry, 3.Four deaths occurred from measles, or 1 more than during the previous week.No deaths from this cause took place during the corresponding week last year!\u201d Ald.GENEREUX said that from the 1st of January, there has been 470 funerals in the French Cemetery.(Complaints had been received as to the removal of the refuse ou the streets, barrels being said to be standing on the street all day.It was said that the work was behind-hand when the present contractor took the work, and it was agreed to give him a little longer trial, A conversation took place as to the requirements of the city from the inhabitants, and tie Chairman said he was preparing a pamphlet which he would have printed and circulated if the Finance Committee would find the money, showing the people what they ought to do and what fines they are liable to for neglect.The question of licensing properige qualified mea to lay the private drains in the city, the Surveyor and members of the Board coinciding \u2014it was determined to recommend that this should be done, and that those to whom such licenses were granted should give a bond of $200 for the due fulfilment of their work._\u2014\u2014 -As to the possibility of substituting for the gallows some form of death likely to be lees painful, Dr, Henry Natchel, a distinguished French physicist now in New York says that the garrote does not always kill the first time, and could not be made successful except in the handa of a Skiliful surgeon; that administering chloroform violently is painful; that prussic acid in the eyes does not alwaye produce instantaneous death, and must be administered by a physician; that death by strychnine is sometimes accompanied by terrible convulsions and great pain; apd that even elcetricity iw nog sure, for a man in England was struck by lightning ang stripped of his clothes and many bones were broken, and yet ho survived it, * Hanging by the neck until dead\u201d seems likely to remain on the statute book for the present.pu LEGAL INTELLICENCE.ENQUETE COURT.Mr.Justice RaINVILLE, presiding.COWIE V3.JACQUES CARTIER BANK.Yesterday morning in this Court the question of the production of the books of the Jacques Cartier Bank came up again.The action being one for damages by reason of the false statement through which toe plaintiff was induced to purchase stock in the Bank, the plaintift claimed the right to examine the books of the Bank.This was refused by the officers of the Bank.A subpana duces tecum was served en the Bank, ordering the production of the books, and for disobeying this the Bank was declared in contempt and fined $40 by the Hou, Mr.Justice Jette.Mr.Laocoerr, Q.C., asked what books were required, a8 some of them were in daily use and could not be spared ?Mr.Kerr, Q.U., said there was no need for any false modesty on the part of the Bank in showing to Mr.Cotte, the witness, the books over which he had control at the time.Mr.H.C-rrE, having been sworn, was then questioned by Mr.Kerr:\u2014 Q.You were cashier of the Banque Jaques Cartier for a number of years ?A.For 13 years, from May, 1860, to June, 1873.Q.Be kind epough to look at the balance sheet of November 29th, 1873, in the bo k now shown to you, and state whether the said balance sheet is made up in accordance with the actual 8:ate of the Bank at that time, ana if not, be kind enough to point out the particulars in wnich it is incorrect?A.I cannot answer this question without investigating the books of the Bank, Q.State what books of the Bank you would require?A.I would require the minute book and the general ledger to commence with, and may require other books to assist me.Mr.Lacoste objected, contending that the books of the Bank were secret and could not be exposed in that manner.Mr.Cotte might make any notes he pleased on the present condition of the Baak, and the Bank would have no control over him.Mr.KzRR answered that there was in the Telegraph Act a provision that the telegrarue should be secret, but the moment an action was brought they had to be produced in the interest of justice.It was precisely similar in this case.The law provided that actions might be taken against Bank Directors for fraud, and hew could this be proved if the books could be 80 withheld.He had no desire to go into the secrets of the Bank turther than absolutely necessary, though he fancied these secrets had been pretty well ventilated already.After some further arguments, His Honour ruled that the ledger and minute book should be brought up, and that the witness should be allowed to examine them as far as necessary.This Mr.Lacoste said he had no objection to.The Court adjourned until 2 oclock.On meeting in the afternoon, the minute book and general ledger were produced, and the case was adjourned sine die.THE BAT!LK OF THE BALTIC.History oF THE *\u2018 PYRAMUS\u201d\u2014 A RiLric IN MONTREAL.As will Le seen by an advertisement in another column, the copper and metal fittings of the Danish ship « Psramus,\u201d captured by the gallant Nelson at Copenhagen in 1801.are for sale, the old ship, aîter a long and varied existence, in which it did good service, having beeu sold and is now in process of breaking up.It will, perhaps, be of some interest to cur readers to give a brief account of how the \u2018\u2018 Pyramus\u201d fell into the hands cf the British.Ia 1801 a confederacy was formed between Russia, Denmark aud Sweden with France to try and wrest from England ber proad supremacy of the sea.The British Cabinet resolved to, crush the combination, and fitted out an expedition under Sir Hyde Parker, with Nelson second in command, aod ordered the fleet to Denmark.They arrived at the Cattegat on the 21st of May, 1801; and, after great delay, passed the Sound on the 30th without any loss, the Swedes havisg suddenly retired trom the combination, and remaining neutral, enabled the English fleet to steer close to their shore and so keep out of range of the gune of Cronenburgh.Nelson, with twelve sail of the line, at half-past nine in the morning of the 2nd of April, weighed anchor amd stood in towards the town.Through the indecision of the pilots, three of the ships grounded, Nelson, with his weakened force, went on and began the action at ten o'clock.After an unslacked fire of three hours, Sir Hyde Parker made the signal of recall.Nelson, on the lieutenant reporting the signal, paid noattention to it.\u201cMy Lord,\u201d sad the signal officer again, \u201c Number 39 is thrown out,\u2014shall T repeat it?\u201d «No; acknowledge it,\u201d replied Nelson, sharply continuine his walk, Then he asked if the signal for close action was still flying, and being answered in the affirmative, said \u201c Mind you keep it 80.\u201d He then turned to Captain Foley and said : ** You know, Foley, I have only one eye, aud have a right to be blind sometimes.\u201d Then, raiging his glass to the blind eye, he | added: ** I really do not see the signal ?Keep mine for closer battle flying ?That's the way I answer such signals ?NAIL MINE TO THE MAST ?\u201d It was about this time that the gallant Riou with many of bis brave crew were killed by the vigourous fire of the Danes.About two o\u2019clock the fire of the Danes slackened and their first line of defence being virtually gone, Nelson, to stop the carnage, wrote the Crown Prince that he had no wish to continue the slaughser, that the defence of the Danish ships had eovered the Danes with glory, but they were now all in the hands of the British, and be requested a surrender of the rest.* The brave Danes are brothers, and should never be the enemies, of England.\u201d This had the desired effect and a truce was entered upon.The loss of the English was 9563 killed and wounded, but the Danes suffered more severely.Nelson for his services was raised to the rank of a Viscount.Among the many prizes was the « Pyramus\u201d then on the stocks.She was\u2014length, 150ft ; width, GOËt ; decks, 4 ; and carried 24 guns.The whole frame and material were conveyed to England, and she was re-constructed in 1802.Her timbers were of Dantzicoak, beams Eag-lish oak, plankings African oak, and also The waterways, keel, keilion, stern and sternpost of live and African oak ; the cat- heads and principal bits of Honduras mahogany ; the cabin-fittings of Spanish ma~ hogany.The powder magazine was of English elm and copper-nailed, and sheathed thrcughout with copper #-inch thick.The deck planking was of Norway pine, fastened with iron metal spikes.Heavy beam-, set on dorvals of a peculiar kind, constructed of large metal rings, were fitted in with cement.The bottom was sheathed with eopper of extra weight, it being 35 0z.to the square foot, In the British navy she was locked upon as a favourite ship, being very fast.In 1832 she left Portsmouth for the Bermudas with coaviets and reached there in 13 days, the following year she was brought to Halifax, and since then has Leen used as a training and hospital ship.The good ship took part in the action of Trafalgar, being there as a supply sbip, and also did good service on the Pacific.Since she was beached she has been an object of much interest to shipbuilders owing to the fineness of her lines.They are looked upon as fine as the lines of the * Marco Polo \u201d of Australian fame, thus showing that the United Sates were not the first to cConetruct on the \u201cClipper\u201d lines, but that the Danes, the old ses kings, knew of the art of clipper lines a century before them.Since the breakiug up of the decks has begun, old coins, books, pipes, &c., have been found between the timbers and also a well preserved se2man\u2019s discharge paper in its tin case, dating 1803, the man\u2019s name baing Henry Robert, of ship \u2018Rose\u201d \u2018The cc pper-boits are from $ to 24 inches in diameter, and from 14 feet to 12 feet in length.One of these bolts can be seen at this office.The oak timbers are as sound as the firat day the ship was constructed, and s> hard that well tempered saws find it bard work to saw through them.We shall, in a fow days, give an account of the other curiosities found between the linings of the ship.\u201c4 DROP OF JOY IN EVERY WORD FLEMINGTON, Hunterden Co., N.J.Dr.R.V.Pizece, Buffalo, N.Y.: Three months age I was broken

city.Perhaps it 18 the calm that should be expected 10 follow the ex citement of last week accompanying the banquet given by our Conservative friends, of which your morning contemporary bas given such full and glowing accounts, As to that same banquet, the table was fairly good, though not remarkable in any way, and some of the speeches merit the same deccription.The Local Premier, the special guest of the evening, did not even do himself justice, \u2014 by vo means rising equal to the occasion.I never listened to him when he appeared to 80 little advantage.The bigh flown\u2014and, to my mind, most injudicious\u2014praises that have so unsparingly been heaped upen him during the past few months, eulogizing him as the orator par excellenca of our Provinca, hare had an untortunate effect.Naturally gifted with ready flow of language, accompanied with a pleasant voice and easc of gesture, the whole supported by great ingenuity, I have listened to Mr.Chapleau, especially in his native tongue, when it was à pleasure ; but of late his style has become affected and stilted, as if in à vaiæ attempt to reach the place where his friends have undeservediy placed him.SIR LEONARD TILLEY, who followed, presented in every respect a pleaeant contrast.Without any attem pt at rhetorical embellishment, and without a superfluous word, his speech was a plain and concise statement of his views.However one might differ from his sentiments, it was impossible not to feel that behind his words, and adding its force to them, there was the sincere character of the man.What a pity for us that such a contrast has to be drawn, As to the restof the intellectual repast provid- » I need not characterize it.À political party dinner is hardly the place where one would seek for information, or in fact, for anything but a re-hash of what we have heard before ad nauseam about tha party.One thing, however, was very striking in all the speeches of our Provincial Conservative lights, and that was the constant reference to the empty condition of the Treasury, and the impossibility of Drogress without funds.It was evident they did not desire that we should he taken by surprise when DIRECT TAXATION is enunciated as a prominent featare of the policy of our Government, but the silence with which such hints were received was significant as to the reception the inauguration of such a policy would meet with among our farmers.The glorious railway policy of our friends, of which so much was said in eulogy that evening, is an expensive one.Saturday evening brought us another sudden change and rise in temperature, making Sunday and Monday as cold d sys as we have had this winter, but during the last six hours it has been snowing heavily, - We are to have McDowell\u2019s Company again with us for three days this week, so we may infer he found his last visit a satisfactory one.Thursday evening the SHERBROOKE SNOW SHOE OLUB give a ball, which promises to be a very pleasant affair, about three hundred invitations having been issued, and exten- Sive preparations made to ensure its success In every particular.Another time I trust there will not be such a dearth of news, but this, with us, is always the dullest season of the year\u2014 not even the glorious N.P, being equal to the task of making the present an exception, and presumably SHERBROOKE.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 EUROPEAN INTELLICENCE.© OUR PARIS LEFT} ER, DiPLOMATIC VisIre\u2014PRESENT3 FOR THE PRESIDENT.From our own Correspondent, Paris, January 16, 1880, The usual New Year diplomatic official exchange of visits took place on the 1sf, in this city, for the first time since the fall of the Empire.M.Grery sported, on the oceasion, the Grand Cordon of the League of Honour : and made neat little speeches, confined to general good wishes, to all the various sommites, Clerical, ambassadorial, political, who defiled bafore the most unassuming of Executive Heads of States, and returned the visit of M.Gambetta as soon &s the latter had returned fiom the Elysee.The intentions of the latter are as much as ever a puzzle to all about him.That he intends, and expects, to exercise the supreme power in France, no one doubts; nor 1s it doubtful that he is waiting for the ripening of the occasion which is to lift him into the place he covets, But what that place may be, is M.Gambetta\u2019s own views and expectations is just the point in regard to which no one seems able to arrive at any definite conviction.The Embassy rent by the Emperor of Morocco has arrived, and the principal members cf this new addition to the Diplomatic body were present on the 1st at the Elysee.The Sultan has sent, as a present to M.Grevy, tem of the most magnificent horses ever seen in Europe, Five of the splendid creatures are lodged in the Presidental stables; two of them have been given by M.Grevy to the Minieter of Foreign Affairs, his colleagues of War and Marine receiving one each, and the tenth steed bas been given to M.Mollard, the perennial Introducer of Ambassadors under the Empire, and the three Republican Presidents who have succeeded to the place of the late Emperor.The traneition from the warm climate of Morocco to the intense cold that reigned in France at their arrival from Africa caused delay in bringing them on and necessitated many precautione, cn the part of their keepers, to keep them in health.The stables in which they are lodged are warmed, and as much care is expended on them as though they were human babies, heirs to vast estates.M.Gambetta, whose horses were considered to bs about the most splendid in Paris, now finds his magnificent turn-out thrown into the shade by the superlative specimens of horse-flesh in question.When snow has rendered the neighbourhood of Naples impracticabie, it may seem natural enough that Geneva, with its colder- and calmer clime, should be visited with eartbquske ; but it is anything thun agieeuble to those who inbabit lccalities hitherto considered to be out of reach of that most frightful of natural disturbances to ses that volcanic agency is no respecter of latitudes, and that the regions esteemed the safest may be visited by the horrible danger supposed to be mainly \u2014contined to the neighbourhood of the equator The ehock occuired on Tuesday, shortly after noon.The undulatory movement was distinctly felt; windows shook, bells rang, doors were burst open, and many houses were severely shaken.The indignation roused by the dastardly attempt on the life of the young King and Queen of Spain has naturally made such a stir on the lines of telegraph all over Europe, the various Courts all hastening to transmit, through the wonder-working wires, their felicitations to the Royal couple so near being sacrificed to the atrocious assassina- tion-mania at the present day,to Queen Isabelia, and to the Impirial family of Austria, whose niece appears to be a great favourite with her *° august >\u2019 uncle.The late attempt on the life of the Czar appears to have suggested an amusing piece of ingenuity practised by a Russian Justice of the Peace at Odessa.Oa the day when the attempt became known in that town, he at once summoned before him, at an early hour, all the parties in suits that were to be heard in his Court that day, and appealed to them, ag a matter of patriotism, to adjust their quarrels amicably, in order that the day, on which their Great Father\u2019s happy escape from death became known, might not be desecrated by wranglings ic a Court among his children.The Chief Justios wrought so skillfully on the feelings of his hearers that they all ac- ceeded to his demand ; the business before the Court was got rid of on the instant by the common consent of all parties, and the clever fuactionary then contrived t > secure for himself a desired holiday.The severe weather of the last six weeks has prompted experiments in search of some more secure protection for the fuet of horses on ice and snow.A novel sight waa hus afforded, a fow days ago, to the people in Golden-Head Park, at Lyons, where some mounted Hussar cofficars were seen disporting themselves on the [Irczem surface of the water, performing various feats of equitation with spparently as much ense and security as though on terre firma.It turned out that these cavaliers were teating the efficacy cf a new specie of horse-shoe, intended to enable cavalry to move about safely on ice.The invention consists in the insertion intq the iron of the horseshoe of several Ixrge mails er studs, projecting rather more than oue-third of an ineb, and removable at will; which, of course, bury themselves in the ice at each The horse is thus en- abied to tike a firm footheld on the ice, even when moving at a rapid pace.ROXY.BY EDWARD EGGLESTON, AUTHOR OF THE * HOOSIER SCHOOL: MASTER.\u201d CHAPTER XXXVII.DIVISIONS.It does seem that matrimony might be improved \u201cin this progressive age.\u201d How is it that there is no method by which a husband can be guaranteed?When one considers how often a woman who has murried a saint of twenty-five finds in teu years that by some transformation she is wedded to a middle- aged sinner, it really seems that there ought to Le bondsmen who should stand surety that the piety, industry and supple courtesy of the bridegroom shall be perpetually maintained at the standard of the days of courtship.A husband warranted to keep in any climate and to stand the test of extraordinary temptations without moulding or deteriorating in any respect would ve most desirable, In how few cases do women find the goods \u201c\u2018 as repres-nted.\u201d Indeed, it seems that the durability of a husband\u2019s good qualities does not enter into the thought of a bride.Ali men are unchangeable in the eyes of their sweethearts, Dees it ever occur to a young woman who inquires anxiously whe lier a certain sort of dry goods \u2018will n\u2026h,\u201d to ask also whether a fair-seeming young man has fast colours in his character, or whether after the first scrubbing tha: adverse circumstances shall give him, he will cowe out a faded rag ¢ Here was Roxy, who had loved and married a hero:c inissionary, impatient to brave malaria, alligators, and p rsecu tioa in the republic of Texas, for the kingdom of heaven's sake.In three quarters of a yesr she finds that she is married to a popular young lawyer, ea ger for small political honours, and caring nothing for missions and precious little for the kingdom of heaven.By some enchantment the man she has married has changed to another ; one restraint after another is slipping away.To what kind of a man will she be wedded in another year ?But it is not the husband alone that needs to be warranted.If Mark bad ceased to be the blazing comet f the religious firmament of Luzerne, Roxy\u2019s steadier light also paled.The differences of thought and feeling between the two were so great that Roxy had now a constant sense of being half deserted, though Mark would have resented a charge of neglecting her.Mark, indeed, found to his surprise that he had not married the meek and inoffensive saint he thought.The shoemaker\u2019s duughter developed the shoemaker\u2019s temper.She put Amanda\u2019s innuendoes and Mark\u2019s heedlesness together, Whether she spoke her reprehensions of Mark\u2019s ways, or whether she kept silence, he knew that she was offended with him.Roxy began to backslide\u2014se it seemed to the church members.For, from her constant perturbation of mind and her constant irritation of temper, she was ever in a state of self-reproach.She went to all the meetings, but she no longer took a leading part.She sat off, as one apart from the rest; she spoke with reserve; she treated her old friends shyly, and they said that ker position and the temptations of this world had led her away from the cross and made her too proud to meet her friends cord.ally.For often a reserve that hides a bitter humiliation seems to be haughtiness.Isit any wonder that Mark felt his marriage a disappointment ?He had given Koxy a social position, every cem- fort, liberty to be as pious as she pleased, a house with a row of aristocratic Lombardy poplars, the Bonamy name.He had asked nothing on the other hand but liberty to de as he pleased.And row because she could not demineer over him and keep him trom the career that his gifts fitted him for, she was unhappy and ill-tempered.Was there a more inoffensive, easy-going and kind-hearted husband in the world than he?He gave Roxy everything.Do you wonder that he was stubborn wuen he thought of her dissatisfaction ?\u2014that he determined not to be controlled by a woman ?that he showed his defiance by doing what he knew she most disliked him to do?Mark Bonamy\u2019s friends should know that he was a man with a mind of his own.Many a man sacrificed possible happiness to his vanity, Amanda, by indirect means, encouraged this state of mind in Mark, Not that she had any definite purpose in making mischief.Mischief.makers hardly ever do ; they make mischief from an appetite\u2014in a sort of devilish enjoyment of the upsetting they produce.Besides, it was not pleasant to Amanda to have Roxy the chosen nurse of her father.She inly believed that Roxy had interested motives.And mother Tartrum evolved a singular theory frow.the shallows of her own consciousness.Roxy was looking out for the will.But Roxy found her former self only in what she did for Colonel Bonamy and Bobo.She read to the old man.Sometimes she tried to awaken a religious sense in him but he only smiled or spoke petulantly.It was hard to trace the action of his mind.To the controversy about Texas and the mission he never alluded.He did not seem much interested in Mark\u2019 success.A state of general apathy or petulant indifference seemed to have supervened on his life of restless and energetic action.He was relieved when the spring came again.With the aid of his cane he promenaded, on clear days, up and down the front porch, hobbling and holding by the balusters at times.What he thought or felt, or whether he thought of anything or felt sughs beyond his physical ailments, Roxy could not guess.His mind seemed a little stronger than at first, and his hold on the nouvs came to be firmer in proportion.Roxy began to wish that some of his old combativeness might return ; then she might come toknow without humbling herself to ask, just what there was in his allusion to Nancy Kirtley.As for Nancy, when she had found that Mark was to remain within reach she had given up all thought of berating him or his wife.There might be a chance for revenge more to her taste.She had no very definite idea of what this possibie revenge was, or what it might lead to.She was impelied by blind forces within her to seek conquest, to gratify vanity and resentment, to use craft.She had no more forethought of the uitimate result of a course of action, and hardly any more freedom of will, than an animal.She had all the qualities of her race.Her ancestors deligted only in the craft, the pursvit, the victory and the destructiveness of the chase.Nancy had the same elements iu ber character ; her weapons and her game were different.That was all.She was still, like them, a beast of prey.Even her resentments were as unreasonable as blind im.puise could make them.It was not Mark whom she hated, it was Roxy.Now that the \u2018\u201cold man Bonamy,\u201d as she styled him, \u201chad the palsy bad,\u201d and Roxy was likely soon to be mistress of the Lombardy poplars and the brick house, she found another reason for malice.In her primitive state of savagery, the sense of right and wrong had only reached a point according to which everything she desired ought to have been hers, She wanted Mark and what pertained to him, therefore she had been robbed by her who possessed him.And she meant \u201cto be even some day.\u201d Such was her notion of equity and retributive justice.In moral culture she had not got beyond the age of stone hatchets.The purpose of revenge grew to be part of her nature; it mixed itself with and intensified her passion for Bonamy ; it became the most desirable object in the world to her pride.She exulted at the theught of 8 vietory she meant to win, when everybody would see that she, Nancy Kirtley, knew how to get even with that hateful Adams\u2019 girl, aud \u201cpay her back.\u201d Nancy did not find much opportunity to try her bland:shments on Mark, She and her sister-in-law, the drayman\u2019s wife, did not get on harmoniously together, and it was not possible for her to remain in her brother\u2019s house more than a day or two at a time.By the end of two days spent together, the incompatibility of the two women generally reached a climax, and separation became inevitable.Whereupon Nancy would return to Rocky Fork, and while away her time in dazzling the rustic beaus, according to her wont, keeping halt the young men and all the young women of the neighbourhood in a state of distraction, In her occasional trips to town she had only chance conversations with Mark on the street.In these interviews Mark treated her with offæ HR] 0G dank of Montreal.Jutarlo Baukdank of B, N.America.Jonsolldated.| $100 3anque du Poupie Æolsons\u2019 Bank.dank of 'furonto.Bank

and te determine whether or not this company shall issue its bonds in the sum of $20,000 per mile of its road, to be secured by mortgage on its property and franchises.\u201d RAILROAD PROJECTS IN THE NORTH-WEST.Pursuant to announcement the directors of the North-Western Narrow Gauge Railway met at Minneapolis last evening and proceeded to discuss the feasibility of coa- structing additional lines of railroad, but the \u201c gauge\u201d was changed very materially.The sentiment was largely expressed in favour of the broad gauge, and more especially as assurances were received from eastern parties that the directors would receive their cordial encouragement and material aid as soon as work was fully inaugurated.With these assurances the directors present at the meeting last night expressed themselves unanimously as in favour of inaugurating operations upon one or two lines as soon as the weather will permit in the spring.The first m order -and importance will be a broad- gauge line between Minneapolis and St, Cloud, running on the west side of the Mississippi River.It was decided to turn out a corps of engineers as soon as the season permits for the purpose of selecting the most feasible route between the points named, and with a view of ultimately extending the road from St.Cloud to the wheat fields of Manitoba.There are railway compauies already in existence which consider that fertile territory worth reaching at the earliest practicable moment.From Colonel Peteler, who was in Min~ neapolis yesterday, we learn that the latest railroad scheme affecting Minneapolis\u2014ihe construction of what is to be known as the Minneapolis, Shakopee and Minnesota Valley Narrow Gauge Railroad\u2014is fairly booming, aud the early construction ot the road is already assured.A meeting of the parties interested will be held at the Town Hall in Richfield on Monday, at which time it is expected the Company will be organized with a capital stock of $200,600, and sutherity,to increase the same as may be required.A number of the leading citizens of Minneapolis have become actively interested im the scheme, and it meets with universal favour from the solid men all along the proposed route, namely: From Minneapolis to Shakopee, and thence up the Mississippi valley on the west side of the river, with a branch running south from Shakopee.The first thing done will be to secure right of way and terminal facilities in Minneapolis.Then so soon as \"stock subscriptions warrant it, twelve miles of road\u2014from Minneapolis to Nine Mile Creek, in the town of Bloomington\u2014will be constructed and equipped, from whence it will be constructed and equipped to Shakopee at the earliest moment possible.Colonel Peteler is confident, judging from the enthusiasm in favour of the subject, that the early spring will see this road completed and in operation to Shakopee, and that it will be pushed much further than that before the close of the coming season.\u2014St.Paul Press.WEKELY REVIEW OF THE HAVANA MARKET, Havana, January 31.SvcARs\u2014Under the influence of continued adverse news from the United States this market has ruled at a constant decline and prices at the close show a consider able downfall as compared with the opening ones.The markets on the coast have followed this downward course, and busi- RR ness there has even been more restricted than here.i According to last sales, quotations to-day must be altered as follows :\u2014Clayed, No 12, current classes, 8 /@ 8% ra;

and indiscriminately strack down ; that the villainy should not have been confined to a single household; and tbat the murder should be supplemented and complicated by arson, all render this crime one of exceptiomal atrocity.That it could be deliberately planned and executed by a considerable number of neighbours, all living oasten~ sibly like honest, quiet, and perhaps religious men, without any of them interfering by remonstrance, or failing remonstrance, by more active measures of repression, is not the least remarkable part of the extraordinary circumstances.The cruelty and injustice of such wholesale vengeance might have been thought so striking as to bring the design to a stop, so soon at least as it came to be canvassed by more peraons than the one or two by whom it was originated.Nor is it less strange that no fear of consequences intervened to stay such utter added to recklessness of moral consider ations, before such a party of assassins could have been brought together for so desperate a deed.À single man keeping within his own breaat a horrible secret, which he knows can be divulged only at the hazard of his life, may feel some security that, in default of material evidence, no tongue will reveal his intentions before hand, nor his deede after they have been emacted.But when a number of persons so great es that which is believed to have been concerned in the Donnelly murder is banded together, all experience proves that continued secresy becomes highly improbable.They have families who are observing them ; they have suspicious communications among themselves which are watched ; and sooneror later investigated ; there is some one more faint-hearted or more conscientious than the rest, who, if he does not break down with the burden of guilt before its accomplishment, is pretty sure at lawt to make a clean breast of it, in order to save either his soul or his body.None of these considerations were sufficient to prevent the dastardly plan from being carried out to its truly bitter end.The possibility of discovery and punishment, indeed, does not appear to have wao'ly escaped attention.But, as we judge from accounts which reach us from the neighbourhood, there has prevailed a firm faith in what we may almost call the freemasonry of members of this hideous conspiracy.The victims were so gem- rally detested ; the desire to get rid of them was so intense ; the appetite for vengeance was 80 keen and universal as to cause the executioners of the popular sentence to be regarded as benefactors, and to make secrecy look like a plaingind imperative daty.There have been\u2014we fear we must say there are communities where such a presumption of impunity would not be without strong grounds for ite support.Iu spite of the far stronger reasons which prompt to betrayal, common hatred does some times close the ligs of persons of ordinarily decent life, against the revelation of astounding crimes, in which they thus become accomplices ; going at last as far as perjury, when silence is no longer possible.But hitherto there has been no suck ferocious animosity among the inhabitants of Canada, and God forbid that the day should come when approbation of crime, fear of personal consequences, or a mistaken sense of honour, shall deprive society of its safeguards by drying up the very source of justice through the reluctance or prevarication of witnesses, Still the dreadful affair carries an important lesson with it, when we see that men, not altogetier lunatic, believe that the guilsy will escape, and no doubt believed from the first that they would escape, through organized silence on the part of those who could convict them.It is evident that the state of things which led up to this multiplex murder was exceedingly evil.Under the ordinary aspect of a quiet village there Was a feeling as embittered as that of a Corsican blood feud ; and this on the one side arose from a conviction that the really peaceful and honest inhabitants had no adequate protection against a family of desperados.What is professed by those who sp on behalf of the criminals, and probably speak the sentiments of the criminals, is that they were driven to this means of getting rid of a nuisance which had become utterly intolerable by finding that, practically, the law left them with out redress for very grave wrongs.How far this opinion was justified, we shall not know till the complete history of the murdered family comes out.Unless they are very much maligned, however, it is obvious that they and the officers of justice have had frequent interviews and that these have, on some occasions, arisen out of crimes of the most heinous description, which public report, rightly or wrongly, laid at their door.It is lamentable that there should, anywhere, be the slightest ground for the impression that justice must be administered by amateurs, or that it will not be administered at all\u2014that wrongs of various kinds may be repeated with such impunity as to encourage fresh repetitions.But we fear that this impression is not always without some not wholly irrational basis.We apprehend that scmetimes in Canada, as elsewhere, the \u201c quality of mercy is not strained\u201d enough, and that more than one villain has met with the compassion which would have been more fitly bestowed on the victims of his past and of his future misdeeds.It seems, moreover, that the Justices of the Peace in the neighbourhood of this tragedy are thought to have been more inclined to procure compromises for offenders than to visit them with the fitting chastisement.But if we were to generalize a little, and so to depart from the desecrated village where the burm ed walla and blood-stained floors furnish a melancholy text for this discussion, we should say that the greatest relaxation of necessary strictness arises out of the weakness or perversity of jurors.It is not many weeks since a respectable journal in the city of London, not far removed \u2018from the now notorious Lucan, did not hesitate to affirm that, to its knowledge, a verdict of acquittal had been practicably suborned and procured before the trial of a homicide came off.We fear that this happens much more frequently than it is made publie ; and the instances are still more numerous when criminals escape from the mere ignorance or foolish pity of jurymen.Of course, there is a degree of legal impunity for offenders, whether it arise from defects in the law or in its administration, when society becomes disintegrated, and resolved into individual elements, each man protecting himself, or associated neighbours protecting each other by the high hand\u2014 by the private pistol or the public adjudications of Judge.Lynch in his open air courts.We have not yet come to that, but it may be well worth consideration, whether we should not so brace our moral fibres as to prevent any approximation to such a disastreus condition.The names of the suspected men, as well ag of the persons murdered, indicate the nationality of all the parties who seem to be mixed up in the horror, and, as we gather, they all belong to the same class.If this be eo, the circumstance, iv is to be hoped, will spare us from the new and fierce partizan contention, which would, otherwise, almost cert :in- ly have arisen as the complement of the past controversy, of which the last reply has been of so fearful à character.RELIEF FOR IRELAND, In response to the appeal of the Duchess of Marlborough, Mayor Rivard has caused a subscription list to be opened at the City Hall.The Mayor and Alderman Nelson have begun the goed work of writing down for them selves the sum of one hundred dollars each.There ean be no question now as to the pressing nature of the call fer relief, and it is to be hoped that our citizens will premptly respond to the barbarism., There must have been a notice given in the Mayor\u2019s Proclama MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, § SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1880, high degree of folly or thoughtlessness, } tion, which appears in the city newspapers.\u2018The list has been placed in tbe City Treasurer\u2019s office, where it awaits subscribers.In a matter of such urgent necessity, however, we think some further action should be taken to secure subecriptions.If collectors are not appointed by the City Hall authorities, there ought to be supplemental lists placed in central and accessible places, such as the Merchants\u2019 Exchange and Mechanics\u2019 Institute Reading Rooms.The truth is thera ought to have been a public meeting convened by the Mayor for this purpose fully a month ago, and by this time he ought to have been ir a position to remit ten thousand dollars.We do not say that our Mayor is to be blamed for the delay, but it is now quite plain that Montreal 18 behind hand in this pressing matter, and her action halting, disjointed and not altogether creditable.The distress has now become appalling in certain parts of Ireland and weare sure that our citizens, if properly approached, would have given before this time as noble à response as they did in the memorable famine year more than thirty years ago.The call for relief is not to any particular parish or congregation.It is to the citizens of Montreal of all parishes and congregations.And the work to be done in meeting the oall ja.mgre than mere parish work.It balongs to the general public.And since the city authorities have taken it 1n hand, as representatives of the general public, we hope they will not be «lack in their efforts, but press it vigorously and earnestly, as the urgency of the case demands.\u2014\u2014 THE LATE LIEUT.~GoVERNOR CHAR D- LER.\u2014This gentleman, whose death occurred at Fredericton, yesterday (Fri day), was born at Amherst, Nova Scotia, in 1800, in which place he was educa:ed.He occupied a number of prominent poti- tions in his native Province.He was a Judge of Probate for Westmoreland County at various tim:s, and for lengthened periods was a member of the Executive Council of New Brunswick, He was a delegate to London, 1833, on the Casual and Territorial Revenues; to Toronto with the late Hon.Joseph Howe, 1850, on the subject of Intercolonial Railway; a second time to London, 1852, with Mr.(now Sir F.)

to replace the both-sided, chameleon-coloured, Mr.Chauteau, whose sole consistency was his keen regard to the main chance, has been issued.The nomination takes place on the 3rd March, when it is to be hoped, if there be a contest, it will be between better men than he who now presides over one of the Courts in the Ancient Uapital.Some say that justice is blind, others represent it by a pair of evenly balanced scales.Mr.Chauveau represented the former, when it was made worth his while.Possioly he can impersonate the latter, but will he do 80, aud will he take as his motto Fiat Justitia ruat coslum ?Tt appeared very much as if his legend had been Fiat Chauveau, ruat Quebec.THE BONAVENTURE STREET WIDENING.To the Editor of thé MONTREAL HERALD, SIR,\u2014I beg to take exception Lo your article in this morning\u2019 HERALD on above subject.To say nothing about the merits of the expropriation law, as 1t Bow exists, and which eannut be changed for the oecasion\u2014if there ever was an improvement which warranted a general distribution of the cost over the whole city this is the one.In its present state, it 18 simply a public disgrace, and its removal will equally redound to the credit of the entire commanity.First impressions go a great way with strangers, and it will require a large amount of civility and good cheer to obliterate the prejudice of having to run-a-muck from our shamble depot through the present nauseating street, with its architeetaral ugliness, notwithstanding its uneuphonious though saintly name, Now, what pecuniary advantage can the widening of this street be to local proprietors ?It can never be anything but what it now ig, an approach to and from the Depot.The adjoining streets of St.Joseph and St.Antoine are old established business thoroughfares, which cannot be disturbed, and there is no warrant for any more shop-territory for years to come, so that I claim there is no analegy of circumstances in comparing this widening with Notre Dame street, which, though an apparent want at the time, has not resulted so favourably as its projectors imagined.Se discouraging are the prospects that, on inquiry, I find few proprietors on Bonaventure street will rebuild at present.The enigma has got to be solved, what the character of the widened street will e.Su far as I can judge, with the practice prevailing in other cities, the limits to bs taxed are too circumscribed, and should include a certain range of al the lateral streets leading to the improvement.Permit me to hope that there should be no short-sighted selfishness to retard anything that will help on the growth of our city and make it in any way attractive to strangers.Five ordinary strangers will spend more money in a given time than ten residents, and we are far behiad oyr neighbours in appreciating any efforts to stimulate intercourse and promote business, PROGRESS.Montreal, January 30, 1880.[If there is any logic in this letter the conclusion it brings us to is that the street should not be widened at all, The writer speaks for the proprietors, and says they do not want it, and fear that they will lose money by it, as he also says the proprictors in Notre Dame street are likely in the long run to do from the widening of their street.Then whky do not the proprietors in Bonaventure street protest against being saddled with a losing business P\u2014E.M.H.} THE ARGENTEUIL ELECTION.To the Editer of the MONTREAL HERALD, Sir,\u2014 With regard to the editorial in yesterday\u2019s Gazette, entitled \u201cThe Argenteuil Election,\u201d I would say that the object of ite appearing at the present time is very apparent, it is to injure Dr.Christie in his candidature in that county by making unfounded charges against me, and trying to hold him responsible for them.| The part I took in the election of 1878 I took independently of Dr.Christie and without his knowledge or solicitation, and I alone am responsible therefor.The charges made against me are false, and the only justification the Gazette has fur them is the ex parte testimony of à man McNaughton, who is a fugitive from justice, and against whom 1 Lave clear and convincing

taken from a contemporary : \u2014 On the morning of the 38rd February a Boston newspaper thus came out on Mr.Vennor : \u201c Unless we have a heavy snow to-day drifting badly and causing railway blockades, Prof.Vennor, the Canadian weather prophet, will please take a back seat.This false prophet business is fully as unpopular now as it was eighteen hundred years ago.\u201d This paragraph was read by thousands in Boston that day, while one of the most terrible snow-3torms experienced in a number of years raged oui- side.The National Ice Company of New York are interviewing Mr.Vennor as to the future behaviour of the wiater, and have requested him to furnish them with a special prediction.By a fortunate coincidence the \u2018\u2018 prophet\u2019s\u201d last bulletin forecasting a heavy snow-fall with drifts and cold weather for the entry of February, was copied in allthe leading American newspapers.Mr.Haynes Lord, of New York, writes to Mr.Vennor: \u201c Some say you got at it by figuration, others say it was guess-work.Will you be so kind as to inform me whether it was by figuration or guess-work?\u201d Peterboro, Oat., offers him a torch light procession.Ix

PRINCESS.His Excellency the Governor-General and Her Royal Highness the Princess Louise left for Ottawa yesterday morning.By half-past eight o\u2019clock a large crowd of people had assembled within the depot to witness the departure, Facing the royal car was a guard of honour composed of a company of the 65th Ritles, headed by the band of the regiment.About half.past nine cheers announced the approach of His Excellency and the Princess, the guard of honour presented arms, and the band struck up the English National Anthem.Her Royal Highness was dressed in black, and wore a seal-skin cap and muff ; while His Excellency was attired in a light suit with a light-coloured overcoat and greyish fur cap.After a few motnents conversation with the officers assembled.among whom were Lieut,~Col.Harwood, Lieut.-Col.Fletcher, and Col.Dyde, the Princess entered the car and joined the ladies of herjsuite, who had preceded ber.His Excellency remained outside uatil the train started, chatting with the group around him, which had been further augmented by the arrival of Mayor Rivard.During the delay the Princess again made her apvearance, but remained in view only for a few minutes.At a quarter tojten o'clock the preliminary whistle was sounded,and a few minutes later the train steamed out of the depot, to the music of \u201c Vive la Canadienne,\u201d played by the band of the 65th Regiment, CORPORATE AFFAIRS BOARD OF HEALTH.A meeting of the Board of Health was held yesterday afternoon, Ald.Allard in the chair.There were also present Alds, Fairbairn and Genereux, Messrs.Weaver and Shelton, and the City Snrveyor.The Medical Officer's report was as follows :\u2014 \u2018\u201c The total number of deaths from all causes during last week amounted to Ts, or 6 more than during the previeus week, but 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.This mortality represents an anpual proportion of 28.88 per 1,000 of the population.One death occurred by.typhoid fever, or the sawe number as during tbe previous week, but 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.Seven deaths took place from phthisis, or 5 less than during the previous week, and 1 less than during the corresponding week last year.Seven deaths occurred from small-pox, or 1 Jess than during the previous week, and 11 less than during the corresponding week last yesr.Of this number 6 were not vaccinated, and 1 was reported as vaccinated.Six deaths took place in the Eastern part of the city and 1 in the Western part.The streets in which.most of the deaths from this cause took place were : St.Mary, 2, and Beaudry, 3.Four deaths occurred from measles, or 1 more than during the previous week.No deaths from this cause took place during the corresponding week last year!\u201d Ald.GENEREUX said that from the 1st of January, there has been 470 funerals in the French Cemetery.(Complaints had been received as to the removal of the refuse ou the streets, barrels being said to be standing on the street all day.It was said that the work was behind-hand when the present contractor took the work, and it was agreed to give him a little longer trial, A conversation took place as to the requirements of the city from the inhabitants, and tie Chairman said he was preparing a pamphlet which he would have printed and circulated if the Finance Committee would find the money, showing the people what they ought to do and what fines they are liable to for neglect.The question of licensing properige qualified mea to lay the private drains in the city, the Surveyor and members of the Board coinciding \u2014it was determined to recommend that this should be done, and that those to whom such licenses were granted should give a bond of $200 for the due fulfilment of their work._\u2014\u2014 -As to the possibility of substituting for the gallows some form of death likely to be lees painful, Dr, Henry Natchel, a distinguished French physicist now in New York says that the garrote does not always kill the first time, and could not be made successful except in the handa of a Skiliful surgeon; that administering chloroform violently is painful; that prussic acid in the eyes does not alwaye produce instantaneous death, and must be administered by a physician; that death by strychnine is sometimes accompanied by terrible convulsions and great pain; apd that even elcetricity iw nog sure, for a man in England was struck by lightning ang stripped of his clothes and many bones were broken, and yet ho survived it, * Hanging by the neck until dead\u201d seems likely to remain on the statute book for the present.pu LEGAL INTELLICENCE.ENQUETE COURT.Mr.Justice RaINVILLE, presiding.COWIE V3.JACQUES CARTIER BANK.Yesterday morning in this Court the question of the production of the books of the Jacques Cartier Bank came up again.The action being one for damages by reason of the false statement through which toe plaintiff was induced to purchase stock in the Bank, the plaintift claimed the right to examine the books of the Bank.This was refused by the officers of the Bank.A subpana duces tecum was served en the Bank, ordering the production of the books, and for disobeying this the Bank was declared in contempt and fined $40 by the Hou, Mr.Justice Jette.Mr.Laocoerr, Q.C., asked what books were required, a8 some of them were in daily use and could not be spared ?Mr.Kerr, Q.U., said there was no need for any false modesty on the part of the Bank in showing to Mr.Cotte, the witness, the books over which he had control at the time.Mr.H.C-rrE, having been sworn, was then questioned by Mr.Kerr:\u2014 Q.You were cashier of the Banque Jaques Cartier for a number of years ?A.For 13 years, from May, 1860, to June, 1873.Q.Be kind epough to look at the balance sheet of November 29th, 1873, in the bo k now shown to you, and state whether the said balance sheet is made up in accordance with the actual 8:ate of the Bank at that time, ana if not, be kind enough to point out the particulars in wnich it is incorrect?A.I cannot answer this question without investigating the books of the Bank, Q.State what books of the Bank you would require?A.I would require the minute book and the general ledger to commence with, and may require other books to assist me.Mr.Lacoste objected, contending that the books of the Bank were secret and could not be exposed in that manner.Mr.Cotte might make any notes he pleased on the present condition of the Baak, and the Bank would have no control over him.Mr.KzRR answered that there was in the Telegraph Act a provision that the telegrarue should be secret, but the moment an action was brought they had to be produced in the interest of justice.It was precisely similar in this case.The law provided that actions might be taken against Bank Directors for fraud, and hew could this be proved if the books could be 80 withheld.He had no desire to go into the secrets of the Bank turther than absolutely necessary, though he fancied these secrets had been pretty well ventilated already.After some further arguments, His Honour ruled that the ledger and minute book should be brought up, and that the witness should be allowed to examine them as far as necessary.This Mr.Lacoste said he had no objection to.The Court adjourned until 2 oclock.On meeting in the afternoon, the minute book and general ledger were produced, and the case was adjourned sine die.THE BAT!LK OF THE BALTIC.History oF THE *\u2018 PYRAMUS\u201d\u2014 A RiLric IN MONTREAL.As will Le seen by an advertisement in another column, the copper and metal fittings of the Danish ship « Psramus,\u201d captured by the gallant Nelson at Copenhagen in 1801.are for sale, the old ship, aîter a long and varied existence, in which it did good service, having beeu sold and is now in process of breaking up.It will, perhaps, be of some interest to cur readers to give a brief account of how the \u2018\u2018 Pyramus\u201d fell into the hands cf the British.Ia 1801 a confederacy was formed between Russia, Denmark aud Sweden with France to try and wrest from England ber proad supremacy of the sea.The British Cabinet resolved to, crush the combination, and fitted out an expedition under Sir Hyde Parker, with Nelson second in command, aod ordered the fleet to Denmark.They arrived at the Cattegat on the 21st of May, 1801; and, after great delay, passed the Sound on the 30th without any loss, the Swedes havisg suddenly retired trom the combination, and remaining neutral, enabled the English fleet to steer close to their shore and so keep out of range of the gune of Cronenburgh.Nelson, with twelve sail of the line, at half-past nine in the morning of the 2nd of April, weighed anchor amd stood in towards the town.Through the indecision of the pilots, three of the ships grounded, Nelson, with his weakened force, went on and began the action at ten o'clock.After an unslacked fire of three hours, Sir Hyde Parker made the signal of recall.Nelson, on the lieutenant reporting the signal, paid noattention to it.\u201cMy Lord,\u201d sad the signal officer again, \u201c Number 39 is thrown out,\u2014shall T repeat it?\u201d «No; acknowledge it,\u201d replied Nelson, sharply continuine his walk, Then he asked if the signal for close action was still flying, and being answered in the affirmative, said \u201c Mind you keep it 80.\u201d He then turned to Captain Foley and said : ** You know, Foley, I have only one eye, aud have a right to be blind sometimes.\u201d Then, raiging his glass to the blind eye, he | added: ** I really do not see the signal ?Keep mine for closer battle flying ?That's the way I answer such signals ?NAIL MINE TO THE MAST ?\u201d It was about this time that the gallant Riou with many of bis brave crew were killed by the vigourous fire of the Danes.About two o\u2019clock the fire of the Danes slackened and their first line of defence being virtually gone, Nelson, to stop the carnage, wrote the Crown Prince that he had no wish to continue the slaughser, that the defence of the Danish ships had eovered the Danes with glory, but they were now all in the hands of the British, and be requested a surrender of the rest.* The brave Danes are brothers, and should never be the enemies, of England.\u201d This had the desired effect and a truce was entered upon.The loss of the English was 9563 killed and wounded, but the Danes suffered more severely.Nelson for his services was raised to the rank of a Viscount.Among the many prizes was the « Pyramus\u201d then on the stocks.She was\u2014length, 150ft ; width, GOËt ; decks, 4 ; and carried 24 guns.The whole frame and material were conveyed to England, and she was re-constructed in 1802.Her timbers were of Dantzicoak, beams Eag-lish oak, plankings African oak, and also The waterways, keel, keilion, stern and sternpost of live and African oak ; the cat- heads and principal bits of Honduras mahogany ; the cabin-fittings of Spanish ma~ hogany.The powder magazine was of English elm and copper-nailed, and sheathed thrcughout with copper #-inch thick.The deck planking was of Norway pine, fastened with iron metal spikes.Heavy beam-, set on dorvals of a peculiar kind, constructed of large metal rings, were fitted in with cement.The bottom was sheathed with eopper of extra weight, it being 35 0z.to the square foot, In the British navy she was locked upon as a favourite ship, being very fast.In 1832 she left Portsmouth for the Bermudas with coaviets and reached there in 13 days, the following year she was brought to Halifax, and since then has Leen used as a training and hospital ship.The good ship took part in the action of Trafalgar, being there as a supply sbip, and also did good service on the Pacific.Since she was beached she has been an object of much interest to shipbuilders owing to the fineness of her lines.They are looked upon as fine as the lines of the * Marco Polo \u201d of Australian fame, thus showing that the United Sates were not the first to cConetruct on the \u201cClipper\u201d lines, but that the Danes, the old ses kings, knew of the art of clipper lines a century before them.Since the breakiug up of the decks has begun, old coins, books, pipes, &c., have been found between the timbers and also a well preserved se2man\u2019s discharge paper in its tin case, dating 1803, the man\u2019s name baing Henry Robert, of ship \u2018Rose\u201d \u2018The cc pper-boits are from $ to 24 inches in diameter, and from 14 feet to 12 feet in length.One of these bolts can be seen at this office.The oak timbers are as sound as the firat day the ship was constructed, and s> hard that well tempered saws find it bard work to saw through them.We shall, in a fow days, give an account of the other curiosities found between the linings of the ship.\u201c4 DROP OF JOY IN EVERY WORD FLEMINGTON, Hunterden Co., N.J.Dr.R.V.Pizece, Buffalo, N.Y.: Three months age I was broken

city.Perhaps it 18 the calm that should be expected 10 follow the ex citement of last week accompanying the banquet given by our Conservative friends, of which your morning contemporary bas given such full and glowing accounts, As to that same banquet, the table was fairly good, though not remarkable in any way, and some of the speeches merit the same deccription.The Local Premier, the special guest of the evening, did not even do himself justice, \u2014 by vo means rising equal to the occasion.I never listened to him when he appeared to 80 little advantage.The bigh flown\u2014and, to my mind, most injudicious\u2014praises that have so unsparingly been heaped upen him during the past few months, eulogizing him as the orator par excellenca of our Provinca, hare had an untortunate effect.Naturally gifted with ready flow of language, accompanied with a pleasant voice and easc of gesture, the whole supported by great ingenuity, I have listened to Mr.Chapleau, especially in his native tongue, when it was à pleasure ; but of late his style has become affected and stilted, as if in à vaiæ attempt to reach the place where his friends have undeservediy placed him.SIR LEONARD TILLEY, who followed, presented in every respect a pleaeant contrast.Without any attem pt at rhetorical embellishment, and without a superfluous word, his speech was a plain and concise statement of his views.However one might differ from his sentiments, it was impossible not to feel that behind his words, and adding its force to them, there was the sincere character of the man.What a pity for us that such a contrast has to be drawn, As to the restof the intellectual repast provid- » I need not characterize it.À political party dinner is hardly the place where one would seek for information, or in fact, for anything but a re-hash of what we have heard before ad nauseam about tha party.One thing, however, was very striking in all the speeches of our Provincial Conservative lights, and that was the constant reference to the empty condition of the Treasury, and the impossibility of Drogress without funds.It was evident they did not desire that we should he taken by surprise when DIRECT TAXATION is enunciated as a prominent featare of the policy of our Government, but the silence with which such hints were received was significant as to the reception the inauguration of such a policy would meet with among our farmers.The glorious railway policy of our friends, of which so much was said in eulogy that evening, is an expensive one.Saturday evening brought us another sudden change and rise in temperature, making Sunday and Monday as cold d sys as we have had this winter, but during the last six hours it has been snowing heavily, - We are to have McDowell\u2019s Company again with us for three days this week, so we may infer he found his last visit a satisfactory one.Thursday evening the SHERBROOKE SNOW SHOE OLUB give a ball, which promises to be a very pleasant affair, about three hundred invitations having been issued, and exten- Sive preparations made to ensure its success In every particular.Another time I trust there will not be such a dearth of news, but this, with us, is always the dullest season of the year\u2014 not even the glorious N.P, being equal to the task of making the present an exception, and presumably SHERBROOKE.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 EUROPEAN INTELLICENCE.© OUR PARIS LEFT} ER, DiPLOMATIC VisIre\u2014PRESENT3 FOR THE PRESIDENT.From our own Correspondent, Paris, January 16, 1880, The usual New Year diplomatic official exchange of visits took place on the 1sf, in this city, for the first time since the fall of the Empire.M.Grery sported, on the oceasion, the Grand Cordon of the League of Honour : and made neat little speeches, confined to general good wishes, to all the various sommites, Clerical, ambassadorial, political, who defiled bafore the most unassuming of Executive Heads of States, and returned the visit of M.Gambetta as soon &s the latter had returned fiom the Elysee.The intentions of the latter are as much as ever a puzzle to all about him.That he intends, and expects, to exercise the supreme power in France, no one doubts; nor 1s it doubtful that he is waiting for the ripening of the occasion which is to lift him into the place he covets, But what that place may be, is M.Gambetta\u2019s own views and expectations is just the point in regard to which no one seems able to arrive at any definite conviction.The Embassy rent by the Emperor of Morocco has arrived, and the principal members cf this new addition to the Diplomatic body were present on the 1st at the Elysee.The Sultan has sent, as a present to M.Grevy, tem of the most magnificent horses ever seen in Europe, Five of the splendid creatures are lodged in the Presidental stables; two of them have been given by M.Grevy to the Minieter of Foreign Affairs, his colleagues of War and Marine receiving one each, and the tenth steed bas been given to M.Mollard, the perennial Introducer of Ambassadors under the Empire, and the three Republican Presidents who have succeeded to the place of the late Emperor.The traneition from the warm climate of Morocco to the intense cold that reigned in France at their arrival from Africa caused delay in bringing them on and necessitated many precautione, cn the part of their keepers, to keep them in health.The stables in which they are lodged are warmed, and as much care is expended on them as though they were human babies, heirs to vast estates.M.Gambetta, whose horses were considered to bs about the most splendid in Paris, now finds his magnificent turn-out thrown into the shade by the superlative specimens of horse-flesh in question.When snow has rendered the neighbourhood of Naples impracticabie, it may seem natural enough that Geneva, with its colder- and calmer clime, should be visited with eartbquske ; but it is anything thun agieeuble to those who inbabit lccalities hitherto considered to be out of reach of that most frightful of natural disturbances to ses that volcanic agency is no respecter of latitudes, and that the regions esteemed the safest may be visited by the horrible danger supposed to be mainly \u2014contined to the neighbourhood of the equator The ehock occuired on Tuesday, shortly after noon.The undulatory movement was distinctly felt; windows shook, bells rang, doors were burst open, and many houses were severely shaken.The indignation roused by the dastardly attempt on the life of the young King and Queen of Spain has naturally made such a stir on the lines of telegraph all over Europe, the various Courts all hastening to transmit, through the wonder-working wires, their felicitations to the Royal couple so near being sacrificed to the atrocious assassina- tion-mania at the present day,to Queen Isabelia, and to the Impirial family of Austria, whose niece appears to be a great favourite with her *° august >\u2019 uncle.The late attempt on the life of the Czar appears to have suggested an amusing piece of ingenuity practised by a Russian Justice of the Peace at Odessa.Oa the day when the attempt became known in that town, he at once summoned before him, at an early hour, all the parties in suits that were to be heard in his Court that day, and appealed to them, ag a matter of patriotism, to adjust their quarrels amicably, in order that the day, on which their Great Father\u2019s happy escape from death became known, might not be desecrated by wranglings ic a Court among his children.The Chief Justios wrought so skillfully on the feelings of his hearers that they all ac- ceeded to his demand ; the business before the Court was got rid of on the instant by the common consent of all parties, and the clever fuactionary then contrived t > secure for himself a desired holiday.The severe weather of the last six weeks has prompted experiments in search of some more secure protection for the fuet of horses on ice and snow.A novel sight waa hus afforded, a fow days ago, to the people in Golden-Head Park, at Lyons, where some mounted Hussar cofficars were seen disporting themselves on the [Irczem surface of the water, performing various feats of equitation with spparently as much ense and security as though on terre firma.It turned out that these cavaliers were teating the efficacy cf a new specie of horse-shoe, intended to enable cavalry to move about safely on ice.The invention consists in the insertion intq the iron of the horseshoe of several Ixrge mails er studs, projecting rather more than oue-third of an ineb, and removable at will; which, of course, bury themselves in the ice at each The horse is thus en- abied to tike a firm footheld on the ice, even when moving at a rapid pace.ROXY.BY EDWARD EGGLESTON, AUTHOR OF THE * HOOSIER SCHOOL: MASTER.\u201d CHAPTER XXXVII.DIVISIONS.It does seem that matrimony might be improved \u201cin this progressive age.\u201d How is it that there is no method by which a husband can be guaranteed?When one considers how often a woman who has murried a saint of twenty-five finds in teu years that by some transformation she is wedded to a middle- aged sinner, it really seems that there ought to Le bondsmen who should stand surety that the piety, industry and supple courtesy of the bridegroom shall be perpetually maintained at the standard of the days of courtship.A husband warranted to keep in any climate and to stand the test of extraordinary temptations without moulding or deteriorating in any respect would ve most desirable, In how few cases do women find the goods \u201c\u2018 as repres-nted.\u201d Indeed, it seems that the durability of a husband\u2019s good qualities does not enter into the thought of a bride.Ali men are unchangeable in the eyes of their sweethearts, Dees it ever occur to a young woman who inquires anxiously whe lier a certain sort of dry goods \u2018will n\u2026h,\u201d to ask also whether a fair-seeming young man has fast colours in his character, or whether after the first scrubbing tha: adverse circumstances shall give him, he will cowe out a faded rag ¢ Here was Roxy, who had loved and married a hero:c inissionary, impatient to brave malaria, alligators, and p rsecu tioa in the republic of Texas, for the kingdom of heaven's sake.In three quarters of a yesr she finds that she is married to a popular young lawyer, ea ger for small political honours, and caring nothing for missions and precious little for the kingdom of heaven.By some enchantment the man she has married has changed to another ; one restraint after another is slipping away.To what kind of a man will she be wedded in another year ?But it is not the husband alone that needs to be warranted.If Mark bad ceased to be the blazing comet f the religious firmament of Luzerne, Roxy\u2019s steadier light also paled.The differences of thought and feeling between the two were so great that Roxy had now a constant sense of being half deserted, though Mark would have resented a charge of neglecting her.Mark, indeed, found to his surprise that he had not married the meek and inoffensive saint he thought.The shoemaker\u2019s duughter developed the shoemaker\u2019s temper.She put Amanda\u2019s innuendoes and Mark\u2019s heedlesness together, Whether she spoke her reprehensions of Mark\u2019s ways, or whether she kept silence, he knew that she was offended with him.Roxy began to backslide\u2014se it seemed to the church members.For, from her constant perturbation of mind and her constant irritation of temper, she was ever in a state of self-reproach.She went to all the meetings, but she no longer took a leading part.She sat off, as one apart from the rest; she spoke with reserve; she treated her old friends shyly, and they said that ker position and the temptations of this world had led her away from the cross and made her too proud to meet her friends cord.ally.For often a reserve that hides a bitter humiliation seems to be haughtiness.Isit any wonder that Mark felt his marriage a disappointment ?He had given Koxy a social position, every cem- fort, liberty to be as pious as she pleased, a house with a row of aristocratic Lombardy poplars, the Bonamy name.He had asked nothing on the other hand but liberty to de as he pleased.And row because she could not demineer over him and keep him trom the career that his gifts fitted him for, she was unhappy and ill-tempered.Was there a more inoffensive, easy-going and kind-hearted husband in the world than he?He gave Roxy everything.Do you wonder that he was stubborn wuen he thought of her dissatisfaction ?\u2014that he determined not to be controlled by a woman ?that he showed his defiance by doing what he knew she most disliked him to do?Mark Bonamy\u2019s friends should know that he was a man with a mind of his own.Many a man sacrificed possible happiness to his vanity, Amanda, by indirect means, encouraged this state of mind in Mark, Not that she had any definite purpose in making mischief.Mischief.makers hardly ever do ; they make mischief from an appetite\u2014in a sort of devilish enjoyment of the upsetting they produce.Besides, it was not pleasant to Amanda to have Roxy the chosen nurse of her father.She inly believed that Roxy had interested motives.And mother Tartrum evolved a singular theory frow.the shallows of her own consciousness.Roxy was looking out for the will.But Roxy found her former self only in what she did for Colonel Bonamy and Bobo.She read to the old man.Sometimes she tried to awaken a religious sense in him but he only smiled or spoke petulantly.It was hard to trace the action of his mind.To the controversy about Texas and the mission he never alluded.He did not seem much interested in Mark\u2019 success.A state of general apathy or petulant indifference seemed to have supervened on his life of restless and energetic action.He was relieved when the spring came again.With the aid of his cane he promenaded, on clear days, up and down the front porch, hobbling and holding by the balusters at times.What he thought or felt, or whether he thought of anything or felt sughs beyond his physical ailments, Roxy could not guess.His mind seemed a little stronger than at first, and his hold on the nouvs came to be firmer in proportion.Roxy began to wish that some of his old combativeness might return ; then she might come toknow without humbling herself to ask, just what there was in his allusion to Nancy Kirtley.As for Nancy, when she had found that Mark was to remain within reach she had given up all thought of berating him or his wife.There might be a chance for revenge more to her taste.She had no very definite idea of what this possibie revenge was, or what it might lead to.She was impelied by blind forces within her to seek conquest, to gratify vanity and resentment, to use craft.She had no more forethought of the uitimate result of a course of action, and hardly any more freedom of will, than an animal.She had all the qualities of her race.Her ancestors deligted only in the craft, the pursvit, the victory and the destructiveness of the chase.Nancy had the same elements iu ber character ; her weapons and her game were different.That was all.She was still, like them, a beast of prey.Even her resentments were as unreasonable as blind im.puise could make them.It was not Mark whom she hated, it was Roxy.Now that the \u2018\u201cold man Bonamy,\u201d as she styled him, \u201chad the palsy bad,\u201d and Roxy was likely soon to be mistress of the Lombardy poplars and the brick house, she found another reason for malice.In her primitive state of savagery, the sense of right and wrong had only reached a point according to which everything she desired ought to have been hers, She wanted Mark and what pertained to him, therefore she had been robbed by her who possessed him.And she meant \u201cto be even some day.\u201d Such was her notion of equity and retributive justice.In moral culture she had not got beyond the age of stone hatchets.The purpose of revenge grew to be part of her nature; it mixed itself with and intensified her passion for Bonamy ; it became the most desirable object in the world to her pride.She exulted at the theught of 8 vietory she meant to win, when everybody would see that she, Nancy Kirtley, knew how to get even with that hateful Adams\u2019 girl, aud \u201cpay her back.\u201d Nancy did not find much opportunity to try her bland:shments on Mark, She and her sister-in-law, the drayman\u2019s wife, did not get on harmoniously together, and it was not possible for her to remain in her brother\u2019s house more than a day or two at a time.By the end of two days spent together, the incompatibility of the two women generally reached a climax, and separation became inevitable.Whereupon Nancy would return to Rocky Fork, and while away her time in dazzling the rustic beaus, according to her wont, keeping halt the young men and all the young women of the neighbourhood in a state of distraction, In her occasional trips to town she had only chance conversations with Mark on the street.In these interviews Mark treated her with off
