attempt-of a party of amateurs to enact on the stage of a regular theatre fur the benefit of a missionary enterprise.It coutains more wit, point and effective situation than the majority of these pieces.1t is a very successful effort in making people laugh, and was greeted last night by a full house.The box plan opens to-morrow at the box office, St.James street.QUEEN'S HALL.6 MISS EMMA THURsBY.\u201d A good many years have past since our music loving citizens had the pleasure uf listening to the silvery voice of Miss Emma Thursby.Tlie impression she made here on her first visit was so marked and indeliable that last night it was found impossible to seat or even give standing room to those who wished to greet her once more to Montreal.The compliment paid her by our citizens was well deserved, for we imagine that it will be a hard task to find a better concert singer than Emma Thursby She has improved very much since we last heard her both in execution and phrasing, and modulation of the voice.Her voice is a soprano of a remarkable sympathetic quality, full in tone, very true and flexible and of good range.She has complete control of 1t and sings with the greatest ease the most difficult runs and passages with a sweetness and expression that at once disarm criticism.The purity of her method is at once striking, forsle is absolutely free of all those little tricks, which so many prima-donnas are accustomed to bring to their aid to send a number off with eclat.The charming and fascinating young Cuntuirice iswperfect mistress of Tier art, and her magnificent voice finds ne difficulty in rendering all the possible chromatic scales, variations of all kinds, trills and the sudden changes with the greatest facility.Her singing of the celébrated Shadow Song,\u201d from \u201cDinorah.\u201d the third number on the programme was simply sublime, and would have called forth, we are certain, * the most marked approval from that queen of song, Adelina Patti.Miss Thursby received for this a double recall and kindly responded to the loud applause with that good old Scotch song \u2018\u201c Within a Mile of Edinboro\u2019 Town,\u201d It is needless to say that on the finish of it long and loud were the cheers, which she drew forth from the audience by her expressive singing.In the second part she was not quite so happy in her seleetions.\u2018 The Swedish Melody\u201d was slightly monotonous and tame, but it was redeemed by the brilliancy of the ¢ Mazurka.\u201d The was sweetly and effectively rendered.Miss Thursby is without doubt a great artiste, and worthily fills the place of the late Parepa Rosa\u201d on the concert stage.Her support was capital throughout, Mdme.Liebe in her violin solo calling down the house, by her feeling and artistic playing.She has a free and broad method of treatment of her themes, combined with the most perfect and delicate shading.She was the recip tent of a handsome bouquet and received a double recall.Herr Carl Formes, though creeping fast into the seer andjvellow leaf of ace, stilt holds his own against the pretentious youngsters, of the present day.He sang with vim \u201c Ruddier than a Cherry\u201d from Acis and Galatea\u201d and an aria from ¢ Le Mazze di Figaro.\u201d Mr.Liebe is an accomplished cellist and Miss Heimlicher a pianist.Both these artists played several numbers with great intelligence and their efforts received the warm acknuw- ledgments of the audience.The concert was a grand success in every way, and we trust the day is not far distant when we shall have the pleasure of welcoming Miss Thursby back again.QUEEN\u2019S HALL.\u2014EASTER MONDAY.The sale of tickets for the Printers\u2019 ball and supper, which is to take place in the Assembly Rooms of the Queen\u2019s Hall, on [aster Monday, was commenced on Wednesday, and froin the number already disposed of, the undertaking cannot but be a decided success.Mr.A.Joyce, the well- known

Laforce, Notre Dame street ; La Minerve office, and A.P.Pigeon, HERaLD office.\u2018 THE MAYORALTY.THE MEETING AT PAPINEAU SQUARE.About five hundred people congregated last evening at the Papineau Square Market to attend the neeting called by Mayor Beaudry.Ex-Ald.Gauthier was called to the chair, and explained the object of the meeting.Mr.Beaudry then came forward and addressed the meeting.He stated that he had first made up his mind not to again present himself as a candidate for the Mayoralty ; but upon being called upon by an influential deputation,who had requested him to allow himself to be nominated, he had reconsidered his former decision and had decided to again contest the Mayoralty.He did not consider that Mr.Bulmer was qualified to be Mayor of Montreal, and ve- | sides there were certain facts which impelled the citizens of the East End to vote for a French Canadian, and among these was \u2018the Pacific Railway station, which it was necessary that they should secure for that end of the city.He accused Mr.Bulmer of having opposed his action on the 12th July, 1878, about the Orange procession, and of having called a meetin of the magistrates of the city.He hel that he had done his duty on that and on all other occasions, and believed that he was entitled to the support of the French Canadians.Mr.Bulmer next came forward and stated that he had been requested to allow himself to be placed in nomination by a most nuroerously signed petition, and he had considered it his duty to respond to the call.He was not the candidate of any party or nationality , all parties and nationalities had requested him to come forward.He held that the reasons which Mr.Beaudry had given to again become a candidate, and this, in oppositon to his pledged word, were insufficient.In reply to Mr.Beaudry, he said that he had never called the meeting of Magistrates ; nor did he ever lory over the action of certain parties in &.Louis Ward.The whole accusations brought against him were illosionary ones, and any man of common sense could not be led away by them.During the time that he had been a member of the City Council he had worked fervently for the DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, FRIDAY.FEBRUARY 23 city\u2019s interests, and uo man could point to a stain on his civic or private record.He beiieved it was an adnutted fact that this was the turn of the Enrlish speaking electors of Montreal tu -vieut their candidate, and in this he sincerely hoped that he would receive the support of the majority of the French clectors, Hon.Senator Thibaudeau then followed in support of Mr.Beaudry, and -tated that it was necessary for the population of the East End to elect Mayor Beaudry to look after their interests in the Abattoir and Canadian Pacific Railway matters.Concerning the accusation he had brought against Mr.Bulmer about his ordering down the French flag he would accept the latter\u2019s explanation.- Ald.Roy followed in support of Mr.Bulmer, and held that it was the duty of the French-Canadians to vote for Mr.Bulmer, and pointed to a number of instances in which Mr.Beaudy had failed to iook after the interests of the city.Ald.Rainville replied to him in favour of Mr.Beaudry.Mr.Murney then spoke, and wag re- fied to in a forcible manner by Mr.Mularky.: The meeting then adjourned.REST AND COMFORT TO THE SUF- - FERING.: \u201c

annual report of the Minister of Inland Revenue shews that the entire receipts for the last fiscal year were 86,- 610,222, as against $6,151,433, for 1880-1, being an increase of $458,789, or about 7.4 per cent.This increase was made up as follows :\u2014 Upon Excise.\u2026.\u2026.$585,238 Upon Culling \"*unbor.8.384 \u2014-\u2014\u2014 518,622 Deduet\u2014 Decrcase on Public Works.43,006

usual, spirits, from which the revenue was $3,655,490 ; tobacco follows, being credited with a contribution of $1,903,805.There were during the year]4,028,847 proof gallons of spirits manufactured, for which purpose 70,402,810 pounds of grain were used, 77 per cent of which was Indian corn, and the remainder rye, malt, wheat and oats.These figures show that most of the \u201cold rye\u201d that is so largely consumed in the country must come from corn.With the exception of one distillery in Manitoba, the entire quantity was produced by six distilleries, all within the Province of Ontario.Malt added $387,597 to the revenue; petroleum $23,884, and seizures $11,090.The quantity of malt manufactured during the yoar was over 70,000,000 pounds, and of this the exports reached 40,000,000 pounds.About 12,000,000 gallons of malt liquor were.produced, or over three gallons per head for every man, woman and child.in the Dominion.Manufactured tobacco reached 10,018,373 pounds, of which 454,884 pounds were of Canadian growth, and paid duties to the extent of $16,195.The Minister is of the opinion that there should be a more liberal system in order to promote a larger growth of native tobacco.He admits that this would involve a loss of revenue, but adds that: \u2014« A tobacco will be made that will displace even in Ontario much of the black tobacco now made from foreign leaf and paying 20 cents per pound duty.But the main object will have been attained.Every grower of tobacco will have a legitimate market in which he can openly dispose of his products, and the price obtainable will be just that which its excellence demands.Morcover, the interest of both the honest cultivator and the manufacturer will be to protect the Government against the illicit traffic which has for years defied all the efforts of the Department to check.\u201d Petroleum, which appears in these figures, is not a very important item of revenue.The number of Canadian packages inspected was 147,465, and of foreign 33,904.The entire income in the way of fees amounted to but $23,884.The vinegar manufactured during the year was 435,284 standard gallons; and the methylated spirits 106,430 gallons, producing together a revenue of $33,- 602.There has been a falling off in receipts from public works, namely from $481,066 in 1881 to $438,060 in 1882, The Welland, St.Law- \u2018rence, Ottawa and Burlington Bay Canals show a decrease, while the other canals figure up an increase.In commenting on this fact the Minister says :\u2014 \u201cA similar falling off is observable in respect to the Erie Canal.So that it would appear to be aitributable in part to the shortness of the crop to be moved, and in part to the increasing railway facilities between the Western States and tidewater.\u201d There may be something in this, for while there has been an increase in the tolls, arising from the produce of the forest, of animals, and from manufactures and merchandise, wT the tolls upon the produce of agrieul- | ture have declined nearly 50 per cent, mainly in the items wheat and corn.The inspection of weights and measures may, to some extent, protect the public against fraud, but it certainly is not done for nothing.The receipts last year amounted to but $26,844, while the cost of collection was 857,784\u2014a very considerable difference.The Government appear to think that they are paying too much for the work, for wo are told that \u2018the experience of the last two or three years has satisfied the Department that a biennial inspection can be made by a considerably reduced staff, and by au order «of His Excellency in Council the maximum number uf officers is determined at fifty, to which number the staff is being gradually reduced as vacancies oecur.\u201d Another item that has the balance on the wrong side is culling timber.Last year the reccipts in the way of fees under this head were $46,780, while the expenditure reached $51,350, a difference of over $4,500.Taken al- tegether, the figures of the Inland Revenue Department are not devoid of interest, though there appears to be room for improvement in the working of some of the branches.THE NEW BRUNSWICK LEGISLATURE.Another of the Parliaments with which Canada has heen endowed was opened yesterday, the Grand Council of the Province of New Brunswick having then been convened and charged as to their duties and responsibilities by the representative of royalty and vice-royalty.New Bruns wick, like Quebec, has two chambers, but it is satisfactory to notice that, unlike the poverty-stricken Government of this Province, its administrators are not content to burden the tax-payers with the cost and the wear and tear attendant on running the fifth wheel of the legislative coach.His Honour significantly draws attention to the subject, promising a Bill to vest the powers of legislation in one legislative chamber.Will the old ladies-\u2014or rather old gentlemen\u2014repeat the tactics, with which we in this Province are specially familiar, of obstructing the wishes of the electorate by voting \u2014what no one else believes\u2014that their usefulness is not gone, if ever, indeed, there was any utility in them.The days of double chambers in the Legislature ought to belong to the past.\u2018They are a luxury too expensive for poor people such as we are.We should, we may remark, have been gratified if the speech Lad looked toward Maritime Union.Indeed, there must be a considerable amount of reform in all the Provinces with respect to the constitution, the cost, the duties, and the territorial limits of our enlarged municipal councils.Every Canadian is suffering, not alone in his pocket, but in his sentiments, by the present condition of our Provincial Parliaments, which, although they have nothing to do with politics proper, affect them and get mixed up in matters which do not concern them, to the loss of those with which they have legitimately to do.The Ontario Boundary question is one about which there has for long been considerable controversy.After over fifteen years association if we have not become sufficiently assimilated to be able to revise our old provincial boundaries and reduce our provincial organizations by at least one half, why is it?Much of what has been said and \u2018done upon recent boundary differences would have been well unsaid and undone.It is.therefore to be hoped that as the outcome of it all we may have a considerable reduction in the number of our legislative establishments which, with all their pomp, ceremony and expense are in the proportion of about one to every 550,000 people.But, to return te the speech from the gubernatorial chair, it is pleasant to learn that the interests of the Province of New Brunswick are all in a satisfactory condition and, moreover, that it is felt by those who are in power that \u201cthese blessings call for devout thankfulness to the giver of all good.\u201d However, New Brunswick's finances are not quite as straitened as our own, and this may account for the expression of gratitude on the part of the Maritime men, It is suggested, and the idea is a happy one, that as the present year is the centennial of the landing of the loyalists in the Province, to the Provincial Exhibition something more of a Dominion character should be given.No doubt, if something of the kind could be accomplished a considerable step would be taken in the direction of a more solid unification of our people.At present we are one in name, 80 far as nationality is concerned, but we are far from that fortunate condition when the slightest occasion arises for sectional jealousy.Railway enterprise is, it appears, making satisfactory advancement, and the numerous railways now in construction are to be supplemented by many others that are being surveyed.Immigration and agriculture ave matters that are not to be allowed to be passed over in silence by the members assembled, and that there is a feeling of this kind among the people is proved by the attention that the newspapers and their correspondents have been paying to them for months, New Brunswick has undoubted agricultural resources and the Provincial Stock Farm has done almost as much service as was expected from it in indueing the farmers to improve the cattle with which they stock their lands.The New Brunswick journals speak warmly of the inducements which they can offer to settlers and we expect from the allusions made to them that means will be taken to have these advantages made use of.The Government appear to be sanguine of an early settlement of the Eastern Extension claim while, and, it was urgently necessary that action be taken, the gaol and prison system is to be overhauled and improved.If is also hoped that, at an early day, a test casc may come before the Supreme Court to fix the responsibility, under the British North America Act, for the maintenance of criminals sentenced for terms under two years.Legislation is spoken of relating to the Riparian and Fishery Rights of the Province in certain streams, to the better appropriation of the Grammar School Allowance in order to facilitate the building of scheol houses, to the office of the Private Secretary of the Lieut.-Governor and to the expenses connected with the maintenance of Government House.Possibly the New Drunswickers will be able to profit by the experiences which we have had in connection with the running of Spencer Wood, and if what we have learned shall tend to their advantage at least something will have been gained by what we have had to pay.The programme of ses- sional work at which we have just briefly glanced we do not deem to be meagre.It involves a good deal of work and embraces matter of much importance, and this is recognized by the advisers of His Honour, who concludes :\u2014\u201c 1 trust that with the Divine blessing your labours may advance the welfare of our people, as well as strengthen the influence of our representative institutions.\u201d INDIAN AFFAIRS, The annual report of the Department of Indian affairs for the Dominion of Canada has been laid before Parliament.As usual it contains much information and statistics tending to show that on the whole the native tribes are improving in their condition, especially on the older reservations.large sections of roving bands on the plains of the Far West, to whom civilization is a new thing, cannot be induced to settle down as tillers of the soil.They still expect that the buffalo will return, and while they hold to this belief they will not work.It is estimated that there are in the Dominion about 110,000 Indians distributed as follows :\u2014 Ontario., co ovveniienes secs savane 17,126 Quebec.PES 11,089 Nova Scotia.\u2019aucase ses 2,228 New Brunswick.1,486 Prince Edward Island.312 Manitoba & N.W.00 8200000000 .37,044 Athabaska and

truth respecting the restlass bands of the West who are ever on the move.The lands sold during the year amounted to 48,903 acres, and the sales to $54,192.84.These lands are, for the most part, situated in various parts of the Province of Ontario, The collections on account of old and new sales and leases amounted to $70,475.65.The quantity of land still in the market is, in round numbers, 493,000 acres: The Indian population resident on the reserves foot up a total of 81,634, leaving only about 30,000 who are still leading a savage life, though, no doubt, many of the reservation Indians are not fully civilized and havea decided objection to the plough and the harrow and to everything else that the white man makes, except fire water.The total quantity of land under cultivation last year was 67, 499 acres, of which 47,578 acres were in Ontario.The Indians own 8,632 huts or houses, and 3,373 barns or stables.They have 14,953 horses, and a large number of cows, sheep, pigs and young stock.The British Columbia tribes are the best off in this res- poct, but the Ontario tribes appear to be the most successful farmers and possess more agricultural implements than all the others put together.The crops raised consisted of corn, what, oats, barley, potatoes, hay, &c; while fish and furs were taken to the value of nearly two million dollars.The total number of Indian children educated at their own schools last year was 3,558.The outlay from the Indian Fund during the year was $357,277 ; and the sum now standing to the credit of the Fund is $3,147,271.On the whole our Indian Affairs appear to be pretty well managed, and the contentment and prosperity of many of the tribes furnish a pleasing contrast to the unhappy condition of the native race on the other side of the boundary line.IMPORTED FOR HIS EXCELLENCY.In the Customs returns of the last fiscal year appears the following entry of articles imported free for the use of the Governor-General :\u2014From Great Pritain, 83,261 ; from United States, $1,509 ; from France, $5,540; total, $10,400.Now why should not the Gov- ernor-General, who, taking into account the services he renders, is the best paid man in the Dominion, be obliged the same as any other individual to pay Customs duties on articles which he chooses to import.We see no reason why any exception should be made im his favour.Of course, if he came to Canada to save all he could out of his salary, indeed, to make- money out of it, from his particular standpoint the thing may be all very well, but the taxpayers, we are assured, will not so regard it.It is stated that even the groceries which are consumed in the household are specially imported, and why?If it is because articles of as good a quality cannot be obtained here, then we have a reflection upon our shop-keepers, which they will not fail to resent.If it is by reason of his exemption from the payment of duties, then we have a right to complain.We maintain the Governor in Vice-regal state, and the money which we contribute ought as far as possible to be spent among us.Tea, sugar, groceries and many other articles in cominon use were certainly not those which it was contemplated should be freed from tariff imposts, yet a large proportion of what is required at Rideau Hall.is imported direct, from the other side of the Atlantic.| His Excellency or, perhaps his steward, seems Lo care nothing fur us =o long as his salary is prompily paid.Tei thousands dollars worth of goods is a considerable importation to be made in one year by tho Canadian Governor- General who assuredly is not a wholesale dealer.Most of our previous Governor-(ienerals have confiuvd themselves to special articles which they could not obtain here ; but in this case some of the most ordinary things are made to evade the tariff, purely on Hix Excellency\u2019s account.The Marquis of Lorne has come officially to live among us, let him be of us as far as he can.The fiscal policy of the country is a national one.The Governor-Ge- neral would seem not to approve of it, perhaps, under the impression that no good thing can come out of (\u2018anada.If His Fxcellency will be an importer let him be made to pay his proportion of Customs duties.THE question i» propounded in what is generally recognized as \u201cthe best of books,\u201d \u201c Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Jeopard his spots #7 It bas never been known that a coloured man has become white, except from disease, nevertheless, a curious story has come to us from New York.that a white man has had his mental characteristics considerably changed by the transfusion of blood.A few dayssince 2 Swede staying at the St.Andre became asphyxiated by blowing out the gas in his bedroom, without turning off thesupply.He was found nearly dead, when the medical men restored him by introducing into his veins living blood from a heaithy negro.The consequence appears to have been that the patient has since failed to recognize his wife and child, and that he calls the negro his brother Here is a phenomenon for the physicians and scientists to explain.eee WE are informed that, on the occasion of the recent visit to Ottawa of à number of members of the Contractors\u2019 Association of Montreal, desiring to see Rideau Hall, they obtained a letter from Sir Hector Langevin.On their presenting the letter to the member of His Excellency\u2019s Staff to whom it was addressed, that individual sardouically smiled, and said that he must ask Sir Hector about it.If this statement of the matter be true, we have the fact that a number of Montreal citizens were treated with scant civility : while the Canadian Minister of Public Works received, in the person of those whom he had endorsed, treatment the reverse of what there was reason to anticipate.Surely the official might have had some consideration for the parties; but the trouble was that they were Canadians.Le Quotiden, of Levis, remarks that the tempest in the Local Legislature is passed, and the Ministerial barque sails along more gaily than ever, manned by more than fifty sailors, the conclusions derived from the division recently taken apropos to the Beauport Asylum contract.But we shall see what we shall see before the financial policy of the Govern- | ment is disposed of.The Gazette wing of the Ministerialists oppose the Treasurer, and if the fifty sailors, who have been ae- customed to form part of the buccan- neering crew disagree among themselves, it may he found, erelong, that the vessel will be surrendered to those who will sail her upon more honest cruises.\u2014 Ix the French Chamber yesterday Mr.Feray explained the policy of the Government, which, so far as concerns outside relations, is to be vigorous without being offensive.The Republic was not considered to be in any way in danger, and, although under the provisions of a measure of 1834, the French princes would be deprived of their commissions in the army they would not be otherwise interfered with, The Government, however, would take measures against those who endeavoured to overturn the existing order of things or post up incendiary placards, \u2014\u2014 ee Mr.Demers has introduced a bill to amend the Quebec License Act, to the following effect: \u2014\u201c No person shall have a right to keep a temperance hotel,

Correspondent.OTTAWA, February 22.The House of Commons sat for about 12 minutes to-day, nearly all the Ontario members beiug absent taking part in the elections.Mr.Blake warned the Government that the business of the country would suffer before the end of the session for their delays.Sir Charles Tupper announced that it 1s the intention of the Government to build the Prince Edward Island branch railway.This announcement may be taken asa direct result of the motion made and the debate excited by Mr.Davies a few days ago.The contract-broking fraternity seem to retain their old-time influence over \u2018Sir John Macdonald, for to-day the Premier refus-d Mr.Casgrain an opportunity of roceeding with his measure to prevent frauds in relation to public contracts A voluminous return, brought down to-day, ineludes copies of all correspondence, etc, between the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway since last session.The total amount of subsidies earned by the Company up to the date of the last estimate was $5,810,000 cash and 5,810,000 acres of lands, 581 miles of road being completed.Drawbacks to the amount of $725,625 were made upon vails imported by the Company.\u201cOn 30th March, 1882, the Pacific Company applied for permission to make the pro- osed Sault Ste.Marie branch art of the main line.On April ard Mr.Schrieber,Chief Engineer, reported favourably on the proposition, and a few days afterwards the Minister of Railways submitted the report to Council recommending the change, on condition that the Company satisfy the the Railway Department that the route is practicable.Application for relocation of lines between Red Fox Creek and: Moose Jaw Creek was received on 30th June, and on July 3, Sir Chas.Tupper reported that the alignment proposed was a great improvement on the former location, and the application was granted.Callendar Station has been fixed at a point 120 es west of Pembroke, Mr.Duncan McIntyre having stated in a letter to Sir Chas.Tupper that that point was the most convenient for a junction with a road running north from Gravenhust.Application to change the route between Moose Jaw and the crossing of the South Saskatchewan was also granted.The Pacific Company having made application to have the squatters removed from the railway reserve at Prince Arthur\u2019s Landing, and to be placed in possession of the wharf at that place, the matter was referred to the Deputy Minister of Justice, who reported that while there was nothing in the Pacific Railway Act to justify the transfer of such property to the Company, the Minister of Railways might allow the Company to use it upon such, terms as he thought proper.Accordingiy, acting upon this report, Sir Charles Tupper recommended that the use of the wharf and Railway reserve be granted to the Pacific Company during their pleasure.On the 24th November \u201clast the Pacific Railway Company, through Mr.R.B.Angus, requested that the Government should release and repay to them the $1,000,000 deposited as security for the due performance of their contract, and to accept in lieu thereof a stock certificate of the Credit Valley Railway Company for £339,800 sterling.On 23th of November an Order-in-Council was passed, sanctioning the substitution and the stock certificate having been transferred to the Finance Minister, the $1,000,000 deposit was returned to the Pacific Company.When the certificate was returned from London, however, countersigned by Messrs.Morton, Rose & Co., agents for the Credit Valley Railway Company, conditions were endorsed upon- it which the Government deemed it inadvisable to accept, and a new certificate has been issued which the Minister of Railways has been informed by cable, will be transferred to the (tovernment unconditionally.Col.Brosseau, Mayor of Laprairie, isa delegate from his town in opposition to the Shearer scheme for bridging the St.Lawrence.He claims that the scheme, if carried out, will have the effect of flooding the whole south shore of the river, and also of inflicting a glacial period of several weeks\u2019 duration upon the residents of such localities every spring.Circulars have been received by all members of the House of Commons, signed by Mrs, A.W.McLelan, wife of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries, asking assistance for Rev.Mr.McLean, of Colchester, N.Ss whose church was destroyed by fire a few weeks ago.To-day all the British Columbia mem.- ers waited upon the Minister of Public Works to ask him to make provision for uuproving the inland navigation of that Tovince by dredging, cte., and also to erect public buildings in different locali- tes.Sir Hector promised to give the request his careful attention.Messrs, J.K.Ward, Joel Leduc and Win.Hobbs were in the city to-day obtaining subscriptions to the stock of a new cotton factory about to be erected at Magog.The Supreme Court this morning delivered jndgment in the case of Dickie vs.Woodworth, the King\u2019s County N.S., election appeal.The motion was to quash the appeal ou the ground that the order appealed from was not appeal able.On 16th August, 1882, an order extending the time for the service of the petition, etc, was granted by Mr.Justice Righy upon affidavits of the Sheriff of es County and the petitioner.On 31st day of August the respondent was served With a copy of the petition.On 25th Au- WSU an order nisi was granted Ly Mr.Justice Rigby to set aside the last men- toned order and the service of the Petition, On 27th September, the last mentioned order was made absolute on the ground as appears by the judgment aL is ex parte order of 16th August extending the timo for service was improvidently granted.On 30th of September, 82, Mr.Justice Rigby granted a new order, extending the time for service to 15th October on the affidavits of the peti- toner, the Sheriff and agent of the peti- toner, and on other papers on file on the 12th of October, the respondent was served with a copy of the petition.On 16th October Mr.Justice igby granted 8m order nisi returnable before the Supreme \u2018Court of Nova Scotia to set aside the second service of said petition on the grounds that the last mentioned | order was obtained on a second applica- | lion and on à state of facts known to the petitioner and his council at the time A when the first order for the extensiun of time for service was applied for.On the 15th January: the last mentioned order nist was made absolute by the Court in buco, vu, the list mentioneil ground solely, and the present appeal is from tlie rule making that order absolute.Chief Justice Ritchie was in favour of granting a motion, holding that the appeal could only be taken on the \u201cmerits of the case or on preliminary objection.Mr.Justice Strong concurred.Mr.Justice Fournier dissented, on the ground that the order appealed from was really a preliminary objection, though not stated as such.The statute on that point was very general in character.Mr, Justice Henry took the same view, holding that a motion to diemiss the petition was, in effect, a preliminary objection, and that the Judge could not, for the reasons stated, reverse his own judgment.It would be monstrous to allow any judge to rescind his own order merely because he thought he liad made a mistake.The statute provided for an appeal to the Supreme Court, and the course of the respondent had been irregular and improper.Justices Gwynne and Taschereau supported the motion, which was granted with costs against the appellant.In the case of Berlinquet vs.the Queen, Mr.Girouard, Q.C., counsel for the sup- | pliants, moved for leave to appeal, and to have the case set down for learing before the Supreme Court, notwithstanding the delayed which has occurred in proceeding with the appeal.Mr.Tash, Q.C., and Mr.Ferguson for the Crown, showed cause.J udgment was reserved.The argument was then proceeded with by Mr.Lash, Q.C., in the election appeal, Jenkins ve.Brecken, on the question of the non-initiated ballots.Mr.Hector Cameron, Q.C., was heard contra.Mr.J.A.MacKasey of Halifax, has arrived here for the purpose of waiting on the Minister of Customs to

services.SHAKESPEARE AND HIS INFLUENCE.' LECTURE BY REV.DR.NORMAN.The Y.M.C.A.course of lectures on Literature and Biography was continued last evening in the Association.Hall, when the Rev.Dr.Norman lectured to a large audience on \u201c Shakespeare and his influence upon the English language and literature.\u201d Mr.J, Murray Smith, President of the Association, occupied the chair, and introduced the lecturer to the large audience.Dr.Norman, in introducing his subject, said that it naturally divided itself into two parts, namely, first, the consideration of the poet, and then the effect which his writings have produced.Before touching on the influence which the greatest ot poets had wrought upon our rich and noble Anglo-Saxon tongue, it would appear natural and fitting to examine and bring to the surface their qualities and their excellencies which mark him off from other poets, and place him ou a pinnacle above all those gifted ones in whose souls at different periods of the world\u2019s history the sacred fire of poesy has burned.The lecturer then entered into the merits of the discussion as to the theory that Bacon was the real author of Shalespeare\u2019s plays, which be disclaimed.[tis true, he said, that the question of authorship cannot detract from the sublimity, the splendour and the power of these works, or pluck one leaf from the garland of bays which univer=al consent has placed upoa their writer's brow.The lecturer referred to the universality of Shalceapeare\u2019s plays, and the favour they had gained from all people.He urged on those who listened to him to make theimn- selves, if they had not already done so, Shakesparian scholars.They would never regret the leisure time which they might bestow on this study.There was an inexhaustible wealth of beauty, of truth, of wisdom and of pleasure to be found by a perusal of thee unperishable works.Taste, imagination would be cultivated and and even the young will learn to admire the poet, and thus will be forearmed against the inferior, and even deleterious literature to wliich otherwise they would hetake themselves.If, in the winter evenings at their homes, they would read | Shakespeare, and foster inquiry into any difficulties that may arise\u2014if they would form Shakespeare Societies among their friends, and encourage discussion as to the text and meaning and moral ofthe plays, they would often spend most pleasant and profitable evenings, aud would find that a spirit of critical enquiry, of love for high literature, of pure taste, of admiration for Divine gifte, was being really though imperceptibly established itself in their own minds, and diffusing itself around you.They might surely apply to the poct his own words, \u2018that \u201ctake him all in all, we shall not look upon his like again.\u201d The lecture was listened to with the deepest attention, and at the close a unanimous vote of thanks was returned to the rev.gentleman.The next lecture of the course will be given by Mr.J.T.Donald on \u201cJames Vatt, the Engineer and Scientist.\u201d This course is growing in favour, and no one should fail to take part in it.THE ONTARIO ELECTIONS, LIST OF CANDIDATES \u2014 JOTTINGS OF THE CAMPAIGN.Tiverrox, Ont, Feb.22\u2014On Wednesday night last there was a meeting held here in the interest of Mr, Gillies, who justified his action in taking the field in North Bruce against a brother Reformer, shewing that Mr.Rowand was nominated by an unconstitutionally formed, as well as packed convention, and that he did not violate thereby the principles of true Reform, and consequently considered himself entitled to the support of his friends.Mr Bennet, as Mr.Rowand's representative, attempted to refute these contentions.The meeting pledged themselves to nse all means to secure Mr.(fillies return.: Toroxro, Feb.22\u2014The Globe this morning predicts a sweeping Liberal victory.The Mail does not anticipate.Prof.Goldwin Smith addressed a meeting in favor of

eccasion of the fourth lecture of the Somerville winter course.The lecturer was our talented young townsman, Mr.J.T.Donald, who delivered a most interesting discourse on the subject, \u201c How rocks are formed.\u201d The Very Rev.Dean Baldwin occupied the chair, and briefly introduced the lecturer, who, in prefacing his remarks, suid that it was generally believed that our -earth was originally a fluid mass, and as it cooled, a crust, somewhat of the character of an iron furnace slag, was formed.As cooling continued the crust would contract and becume folded.In the hollows the water would be hot and charged with various acids, which wouldfact upon and decompose the crust to a certain depth.The portions of the primitive crust äbove the water would be acted upon by the carbonic acid of the air and also decomposed.This first crust of the earth is nowhere to be seen, as it is buried beneath its own ruins, yet it is the source from which nearly all the rocks that we now find have been formed.1.Fragmental Rocks, etc., those formed from fragments of pre-exist- ing rocks such as conglomerate and sandstone are chiefly formed by the action of the waves wearing down the cliffs and grinding the debris into coarser or finer fragments which in time form a sold mass, being cemented together by a calcareous, stlicious or ferruginous cement, Certain fragmental rocks have received these fragments from active volcances and the water has assisted in the cementing process.Mount Royal was once an active volcanoe and furnished the material from which much of the rock of St.Helen's Island is formed.Under certain conditions the clay and sandstone of fragmental rocks may be so altered that they become slate and nuca schist.2.Organic rocks are those formed through the agency of plants and animals.Coal 1s a rock which is composed of wood in various stages of alteration.Wood decaying in swamps is gradually converted into peat and this by heat and pressure becomes lignite or brown coal of which there is abundance in the North-West.According to the amount of heat and pressure that act upon the lignite it may become either Bituminous oal or Anthracite or fiually Graphite or plumbago.Limestône is also in many cases formed from the shells of animals.These shells fall to the \u201cbottom of the ocean and are ground by the agitation of the waves into a fine mud or paste.When this mud becomes hardened it gives us coni- pact limestone or if subjected to very great heat it forms marble.In Montreal limestone we can see that the whole is simply à mass of fragments of shells.3.Chemically formed rocks are then due to chemical action betwcen various substances dissolved in the water.The ocean becomes saturated with the material in solution and it gradually accumulates at the bottom, and In course of time a part of the ocean being separated from the main body the water evaporates and leaves the precipitated material as a bed of rock.In this way some\u2018 limestones,gypsums and rock salts are formed.Iron ores which constitute masses ef rock have been gathered together and de- positedin bags by water containing vegetable matter,and thus hardened by heat and pressure.4.Volcanic Rocks are those that have been poured from volcanoes or reservoirs of molten material in a liquid condition.These constitute butasmall portion of the rocks of our earth to such as home granite and trap rocks Another class of rocks of very great value but not of great extent, compared with those already mentioned, are those that constitute veins.These are the repositories of the valnable metals.Veins have been originally fissures in the rocks.They have been filled either by injection from below, in which case the vein is termed a dyke, or by infiltration of water carrying mineral matter in solution, depositing the mineral in the fissure.The lecturer illustrated his remarks in a most interesting manner.Dean Baldwin, at the conclusion of the lecture, in returning thanks to the lecturer on behalf of the audience for his most interesting discourse, stated that it was an illustration of the old saying that there were sermons in stones.The cities of ancient times had passed out of existence, but in the inscriptions on their monuments etc., might be read the glories of the past.He heartily congratulated Mr.Donald on the treat he had afforded them all by his interesting remarks.The next lecture will be delivered by Dr.Robert Bell on \u201cThe Arthabaska-McKen- zie Basin.\u201d THE SCHOOL INVESTIGATION.THE PROTESTANT BOARD'S ADMINISTRATION.The Royal Commission on Schools met at the High School yesterday afternoon.Present :\u2014Messrs.Li.i Davidson (Chairman pro tem.), Doherty, and Glackmeyer.Mr.Ethier, Asst-City Attorney, represented the City Council.Dr.Robins and other gentlemen also attended.The first witness examined, was Ald.Holland, who stated he had been a member of the Council for nine years.He said :\u2014My reason for opposing the increase of the tax is that I Believe that the funds already at their disposal have not en judiciously used.Besides, I consider that after reading any Acts in my possession, the intention was to form common schools.There may be a recent Act changing this, but looking over the original Acts I am convinced that that was the intention.I think one of the great mistakes of the Commissioners was the abandoning of the old High School aud the erection of this building.I find by the statements of the Secretary and the accounts furnished that since the crection of the building the floating debt has swelled up to some $30, 000, Ifind that the interest and sinking fund upon the debt incurred by the erection of the building amounts to about $11, 500 per annum.1 think it would be more satisfactory to the rate-payers that the Board should be elected.I think now you have a good class of educators but poor financiers.If you elect the Board you will get business men who kuow the value of money.I may say in justification of this remark that before Commissioners were appointed we had a number of excellent ucators in the city who either rented or owned their buildings and were sustained by the fees of the pupils.These schools turned out first-class business men and were self-sustaining, and I see no reason why with the large revenue at the disposal of the Board better results have not been obtained.By Mr.Ethier\u2014I think almost every year I received à statement of the Protestant Board.This was I think only for the last three or four years.Hector Munro of the City of Montreal, Builder and Agent, being sworn, said :\u2014 I have management of a great deal of property in Montreal, and considerable experience in the erection of buildings, I reside in St.Antoine Ward, very near the old High School building.1 began az a School Commissioners in 1854, thai is before there was any regular commission, only a few gentlemen who used to meet.| continued to act up to 1869 or 1870, I think.When I left, I left because I was dissatistied with the management of the whole thing.Mr.Lunn then was Secre- tary-Treasurer, and continued so till Mr.Bavnes became so.For a number of CoN years Mr.Lunn and I collected enough throughout the city to meet expenditnre.his was voluntary ; there was no regular commission, and 1t wa~ after they got the Cote Street School tliat the Board wus formed.There was great dissatisfaction among the Protestants on the Board with regard to the amount received from the Corporation and Government, on the ground that the Protestants did not get.their fair propertion of the assessment collected.Ve considered the Protestants paid the larger proportion of the assessment and were entitled to a larger portion than they got.We obtained the rectification.After this we commenced to build these additional schools\u2014first, the Prince Arthur School.I made out plans for that school, I was to be guided entirely by Mr.Arnold, who was the head teacher at that time.The plans were made out at the time entirely from Mr.Arnold\u2019s instructions.Tenders were taken in.The cost amounted to =owme $13,000.Meanwhile, plans were obtained volving changes and alterations to suit the general view of the Commissioners, making the total cost $23,091.66.I haven\u2019y details of other buildings, but the whole amouuted, during my time, to $34,- 524.76.I think the Board have erred in building too exper:sive buildings altogether, not merely this one, but also some of the others.The Commission adjourned at six o'clock until to-morrow afteraoon.CIVIC AFFAIRS POLICE COMMITTEE A meeting of the Police Committee was held yesterday morning, when there were present Ald.Kennedy (Chairman).Dubue, Grenier, Stevenson, T.Wilson and Hagar.A petition was received from the res dents of Sherbrooke street protesting against the removal of the cab stand from Mance staeet.As the stand is in front of vacant lots, the petition was not entertained.A petition, signed by a number of citizens, was read praying that ex-Coustable John Waters, who was discharged for intoxication while on public duty, be reinstated, as lie was on duty on the ice at the time, and the weather was extremely severe.The petition was not entertained.Tenders were received as follows for the repairing of the prison van by supplying it with new wheels and running gear :\u2014 James Kannahan, $120; R.J.& N.Keundall, $175 ; Mr.Donseau, $175.; After some discussion, it was finally decided that if Mr.Kannahan fagreed to do the work as well as the others, the contract be awarded to him at $120.The next question was in regard to the police stables.The chairman staged that the present stables were ina shocking condition, and that a considerable sum had been paidZfor veterinaries and medicine, and the matter demanded prompt at- | tention.Ald.Dubue presented a rough draft for a new stable to be erected in the rear of the present stable.Tt is to be built of brick, with stone foundations 20x35, with carriage shed attached.After discussion, the matter was referred to Ald, Dubuc to have the plans improved and advertise for tenders to be sent in by next Wednesday at 10 a.mn.\u2019 PARKS AND FERRIES.À meeting of the Parks and Ferries Committee;was also held yesterday afternoon when there were present Ald.T.Wilson (Chairman), Mc¢Cord, Rainville, J.C.Wilson, and Grenier.The business before the meeting was the application of Mr.Blackwood, proprietor of the \u2018refreshiment stand on St.Helen\u2019s Island, for leave to transfer his privilege to Mr.Depatie, as the latter intended to live on the Island, After consideration the Committee re- | solved that they would accept Mr.Depatie in lieu of Mr.Blackwood,

Hotel, when Mr.D.Barry, the President, occupied the chair, Mr.McGoun\u2019s motion in regard to the peition of the club, anent the leader of uebec Opposition, was adjourned to a \u2018special meeting on Saturday week.Mr.W.D.Lighthall then submitted a paper stating in precise form the advin- tages of Protection.| An interesting discussion followed, in which Messrs.N.W.Trenholme, Prof.J.Clarke Murray, J.J.Maclaren, Q.C., A.McGoun, jr., W.A.Weir, T.H.Turton, Ewan McLennan, Mr.Hutchinson, and Mr.Trenholme opposed the idea, that under Free Trade money was paid out of the country, thereby impoverishing it, and thus, therefore, our imports should be diminished.Our importations were not paid for with money, but with the result of our labour in grain, lumber, etc., exported, and if protection reduced our mn ports by half we reduce by that much our foreign market for our grain, lumber, etc.On another point, if a country wishes to be a manufacturing nation, it must be able to sell cheaply in the markets of the world, but it cannot do this if what its artisans use is subject to taxation, and the price enhanced by the prohibition of competition resulting from protection, and so the cost of production increased by the element of the higher wages demanded.He pointed to Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool and Birmingham,whose rapid growth was during a free trade regime and to New York, Chicago, St.Louis, New Orleans and San Francisco as places whose growth was not due to protection.More great centres were built up by commerce than by protected industries.The country gained more by employing its men in the natural industries of the country.Take a thousand men and put them to smelting iron, or iu factories.They are of a certain benefit to the country.But take the same men and put them on farms.They would build a thousand homesteads and barns, and required a thousand sets of agricultural instruments, thereby employing an immense amount of labour, besides taking as much wealth from the soil in the shape of grain, etc, as the iron would be.The debate was a most interesting one.The Club intends to hold several such meetings during the year.When vou visit or leave New

breadth, 54 feet; depth, 40.9 to \u2018upper deck, or 45.10 to promenade deck.The gross tonnage is about 7,500 tons.The vessel has five decks.The first or promenade deck, extending the whole length aud breadth of the vessel, is (with the exception of the parts forming the turtle decks at the ends) reserved for the use of the first-class passengers only.On this deck, amidships, is placed the Ladies\u2019 Boudoir, a fine spacious apartment, which will be fitted up and decorated in a most tasteful manner.On the second or upper deck are the cabins for the officers and engineers, the smoking saloon and saloon entrances, also the kitchens, bakerics, sculleries and other offices.These are chiefly contained in a large central deck louse, :220 feet long by 32 broad.The extremities of the upper deck are well pfBtected by extensive turtle decks, that at the forward part extending about 100 feet aft from the stem.On the third or main deck are the cabins for the passengers with their dining- saloons, ladies\u2019 retiring rooms and other accommodations, On this deck accommodation is provided for 340 first-class, 92 second-classland 110 third-class passengers.The first-class staterooms are replete with all fittings usual in the highest class of passenger steamers.The first-class dining- saloon which is placed in the midship part of the vessel, forward of the machinery space, is an exceedingly large and magnificent apartment, 65 feet long by 54 feet wide and 9 feet in height, and is so arranged that all the first-class passengers can dine together.Ample \"light and ventilation are given to the saloon by a large well 25 feet long, by 15 feet wide, extending up to a large skylight placed on the promenade deck, thus allowing the skylight to be kept open even in the stormiest weather.The total height in the saloon at the cupola is over 20 feet.Numerous Jarge lights are also fitted along the sides of the saloon.The second-class saloon and accommodation is situated abaft the engine-room, and will be fitted up in a neat style, complete with all fittings tending to the comfort of the passengers.The whole of the after part abaft the jigger-mast will be fitted up in a substantial manner for the steerage passengers.The greatest care has heen taken 1n the lighting, ventilation and sanitary arrangements throughout.The fourth or lower deck can be almost entirely used for steerage passengers or for cargo as required.On this deck alone accommodation can, if necessary, be provided for 1,000 passengers.The fifth or top deck is used entirely for cargo.The vessel bas four iron masts with yards on the two foremost ones, A complete installation of the electric light on the incandescent principle will be made, adding greatly to the general effect of the tasteful decorations throughout.; Steam-steering gear of the best type is placed in the wheel-house under the after turtle deck with connections for steering from the bridge amidships.Powerful hand-wheel-house.À steam capstan windlass is fitted forward for the efficient working of the vessel.Five large steam winches are fitted at thé cargo hatches for the prompt loading and unloading of cargo.Ten large boats are arranged cn the promenade deck as far as possible beyond the risk of damage from the sea.In fact, the vessel is provided with all the most approved appliances for navigating her, and for promoting the comfort an safety of the passengers.The engines for this vessel are of 12,000 L H P.; they ave compound, having three inverted cylinders, one high-pres- sure, 70 inches diameter, and two low- ressure, each 104 inches diameter.The igh-pressuze cylinder is placed between two low-pressure cylinders, and all are adapted for a stroke of®% feet 6 inches.The valves, which are of the equilibrium piston type, are placed between the cylinders, the high-pressure cylinder having one single piston valve, while each of the low-pressure cylinders have two piston valves connected by a crosshead.The valves are worked by the usual double eccentrics and link motion.The reversing of the engines is effected by a stcam and hydraulic reversing engine.The crank shaft is built and made of Vicker\u2019s crucible cast steel.The diameter of the Journals is 24} inches.The tunnel and propeller shafting is also of Vicker\u2019s steel.The surface condenser is placed at the back of the engines ; it is divided into two parts, each of which forms an inde- ndent condencer for the corresponding ow-pressure cylinder.The water is supplied to the condenser by two large centrifugal pumps having pipes 20 inches in diameter, and capable fof discharging fully 4,100 tons of water per hour.The propeller boss is of Vicker's steel with manganese bronze blades.The boilers for supplying steam to the engines are entirely made of steel plates, and are nine in number.They are double-ended and arranged in three groups with athwartship stokeholes.Each boiler is 16 feet 6 inches in diameter and 16 feet 9 inches long, having eight Fox\u2019s patent corrugated furnaces, 3 feet 6 inches mean diameter, making the total number of furnaces for the nine boilers seventy-two.JoHN ELDER & Sox, per A.D.Bryce Douglass.The Guion Line ave sparing neither pains or expense in making the \u201cOregon\u201d the steamer of the age, and hope to eclipse the wonderful performances of her prede- CEssors as to speed, and at the same time to combine in her all that is new and practical for insuring safety as a primary element in her construction, and at the \u201came time luxurious comfort for all classes of her patrons in her equipment.The best talent in Great Britain is employed in develo ping this vessel and she wil unquestionably he a very superior steamer in every respect, She will carry, when full, 1,542 passengers, and with a full complement of officers and crew, nearly 1,800 persons equal to the population of a smal) village, and is a little world within herself for the few days of each voyage back and forth on the Atlantic.IF NEARLY DEAD after taking some highly puflied ap stuif, with long testimonials, turn to Hop Bitters and fave no fear for any Kidney or Urinary Troubies, Bright\u2019s Disease, Diabetes or Liver Complaint.These diseases cannot resist the curative power of Hop Bitters ; besides it is the best fami] me diciue on earth.A necessary evils, but the Lne of defence has established ina very unmistakable manner how unjustifiable these extortions are, and Low pressing the necessity for protecting the public against them, Mr.Normaundeaw\u2019s communication is chiefly conspicttous for the redundancy of interrogatories with which it is adorned, and fur the diversion he labors te create by exposing the charges wade hy lawyers.That 1s a question of public interest which is not to be despised, and if Mr,:Normandeau will but display half the zeal in endeavouring to redress a wrong, that he shows in the defence of one, he may yet succeed in doin a something for the public good.In the meantime, one grievance is sufticient to deal with, and the \u201cyou're another\u201d style of excuse, had better be reserved for those whose reasoning powers have not emerged beyond the stage that accepts that sort of reply as unanswerable, Mr, Hart\u2019s defence is alike of the indirect kind; it would have been more justly appreciated had he signed himself lecturer to the aspirant notaries ; the public would then have raderstood how very natural it is that ke should argue for the divine right of a privileged class, and how more than human even a notary would be, who should admit that the order for which his chair is maintained is an incubus upon the public.On certain points these champions are unanimous.Both evade the cowardly request that notaries should make their own tariff, and the public be bound by it.Both are especially silent on the provisions of a tariff that is in effect at once a legacy duty upon the inheritance of widows and orphans\u2014a land tax, a-direct impost on rents, and on almost every conceivable transaction which may be a matter of record, and both are very pronounced in the manner they parade the \u201c Profession \u201d before the public, as if that were something ordinary mortals only required to contemplate to acknowledge its claims to profound respect.Well, let us see what the vaunted profession is! A notary is a man who undertakes to put in writing a bargain which has been agreed upon by statute, he stands free from responsibility to the person employing him, and he levies an unusually large charge for his services.Now, in all the ways that men take to carn a subsistence there are no qualifications so universal, among men of moderate education, as those necessary to produce the average notary.To write a bargain in language that properly expresses its terms is not a very difficult matter, yet every notary does not sutceed in doing it.He does not fail, however, to levy the tariff rates for his attempts, Mr, Normandeau claims credit for not victimising the poor man, 0 the relief of the rich, a truth which no one will dispute, because the victimising process has been extended alike to all classes.Here are a couple of specimens, a notarial copy of a document, containing one hundred and forty-one written words, introduced on a printed form, worth ten cents, by a junior clerk working for the wages \u2018notaries are in tlie habit of paying, is produced at rather less than twenty-five cents, and the divinely appointed Notary extracts two dollars for the document from the wages of hard labour, being just the amount of two days pay.Again, a simple conveyance is charged eighty dollars, where the ostensible owner merely parts with his equity of redemption in an encumbered property, because the scribe that wrote the conveyance considers, that if sold without encumbrance, the property might bring $80,000, that the incumbents interest in the property is not worth one dollar, is not of the slightest consequence, #0 long'as an excuse can be found in the tariff for levying an astounding charge.Then the two per cents and two and a half per cents are so much the more oppressive.These are the wrongs the champions would like to defend, and in the attempt, feeling that the truths exposed are incontrovertible, Mr.Hart makes an inglorious exit, with a fling at the Board of Trade.One can afford to laugh at Mr.Hart\u2019s spleen.The stand taken by the Board of rade, however, merits, and will doubtless receive, the sanction of every person exposed to the extortions complained of, from the humblest tenant who pays the impost on his lease, to the proprietor who is mulcted on his purchase.Class legis lation of this sort will always rouse popular indignation, It benefits incapables, by degrading men of ability and reliability to the level\u2014in rewards\u2014of those who have neither qualification.In the business of à notary, as in other business, the man of merit has everything to gain, by untrammelled competition, and not the least of his gains would be the restraint that corupetitign would impose on the conduct of such as oppress those who labour, by the exaction of fees, that are calculated to arouse the indignation of every one, who holds at its true value the name of an honest man.ANT1-MONOPOLIST.Montreal, February 21, 1883.ee pree Errs\u2019s CoCOA\u2014GRATEFUL AND COMFORTING.-\u2014* By athorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected Cocoa, Mr.Epps has provided our breakfastjtables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctors\u2019 bills.It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease.Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready io attack { wherever there is a weak point.We may | escape many a fatal shatt by keeping ourselves well fortitied with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.\u201d\u2014Civil Service Gazette \u2014 Made simply with boiling water or milk.Sold enly in Packets an Tins (31b.and 1b.) by grocers, labelled\u2014 \u201cJauus Eres & Co., Homoeopathic Che mists, London, Eng.\u201d\u2014Also makers of Eppss Chocolate Essence FOR THE nidneys, Liver and Urinary (rgans, The Best Blood Purifier.There is only one way by which any disease ean be cured, and that is by ree moving the canse\u2014whatever it may be.The great mediexl authorities of the day declare that nearly every disease is caused by deranged kidneys or liver.To restore these therefore is the only way by which health can be secured.Here is where WARNER'S SAFE CURE has achieved its great reputation.It acts directly upon the kidneys and liver and by placing them ina healthy cons dition drives disease and pain from the system.For all Kidneys, Liver and Trinary troubles;

49 of the Central Block to-day.Among those present were Major-General Luard, commanding the Militia, President ; Col.Powell, Ad- jutant-General, | Vice-President ; Lieut.- Cols.Moutizambert and Cotton, Commandant Royal Schools of Gunnery ; Lient.-Col.Macpherson, Director of Stores ; Lieut.-Col.Maunsell, D.A.G., Brigade Major Ottawa district; Lieut.-Cols.Straubenzie, Worseley, A.H.Macdonald, A.A, Stevenson, Oswald; Majors Holbech, H.Smith, Jones, R.A.Atkinson, Walker, R.E.; Captains Laurie, Trotter.Hood, Nicoll, Stewart, Forbes, Turnbull and Cole; Lieuts.Arnton, Stevenson, Davidaon, Lewin, Lane, Brish and Blip.Among others present werc Colonel and Mr.Speaker Kirkpatrick, and Mr.Ives, The annual report of the officers was read, and adopted, also the report of Lieut.Doraldson, of Kingston, the Secretary.His Excellency the Governor- General visited the meeting and took the chair, He said he was glad to Le present again on such an occasion, to show his grateful appreciation of the good work one by the Artillery Association of Canada.He always held that they were of equal value with any other association in the country, although they were not as quiet.He was very glad to show his high appreciation of the Artillery Association by contributing to the list of prizes.He hoped that they would this year accept the prizes which he had the pleasure of offering last year.And if it was in the power of the Government to send a team to Shoeburyness, so ably represented by\u2019 the Dominion during the last two or three years, he would be most happy to give his assistance toward gaining the desired end.(Applause).;aHe congratulated them on the acquisition of the four ten-pounder Armstrong guns, which make of guns are generally used in England in the volunteer competitions.He was sorry they could not get more, but they were to be cougratulated on the four which they had and the easy terms on which they were procured.His Excellency asked the members of the Association to join him in a vote of condolence with the family of Major Hebert.Upon the outhreak of the Egyptian war Major Hebert was the first to offer himself for service.His Excellency knew that all such applications had Deen previously refused in England, and that it was not at all likely the application from Canada would be entertained.But Major Hebert pressed his application with great persistence, and as he was the first to offer his services, His Ex-: cellency finally yielded and was pleaseil to recommend him for service in the field with such results that he was attached to the artillery in Egypt.Many of those now present no doubt recollected the fond hopes of Major Hebert when he left Quebec and they would feel with him that his death, met in the path of duty and honor, was as meritorious as if he had fallen on the ramparts of Tel-el- Kebir.It afforded His Excellency the melancholy pleasure of expressing the deep regret at the loss they had sustained in the loss of Major Hebert of B Battery, who was one of their members, The Association also desired to place on record this expression of their greatest sympathy with the family of the deceased officer at the loss sustained mot only by then, but also by the country which he so gallantly served.Col.Irwin, Inspector of Artillery, in seconding the motion reminded the Association of the terms of the general order issued on Dec.1,1882, in regard tothe death of Major Hebert.The motion was unanimously carried.Colonels Irwin and Montizambert moved expressions of regret at the retirement of Major-General Strange from the force, and as President of the Council Lieut.-Col.Macdonald, of Guelph, on behalf of the artillery officers of his district, said that they would feel the great loss of General Strange\u2019s retirement.Colonel Stevenson, of Montreal, also spoke for the entire artillery force, expressing the regret he felt.General Strange thanked them for the very strong testimonial offered him and said he had tried in every instance to do his duty.He referred to the great assistance rendered him by Colonel Oswald, who had come forward with pecuniary aid when it was most needed, also their Secretary, Lieutenant Donaldsen, of Kingston.The motion of thanks was unanimously car- vied.À letter of regret at not being able to attend the meeting was read from Hon.Mr.Caron.A resolution of thanks Was tendered to His Excellency for prizes he had offered for competition last year, and which he offered again this year.Some slight changes in the constitution were ther.made and the meeting ad-

asserted that it was held in direct opposition to the protest of the Grand Lodge.It was merely a joint stock enterprise, in which the fraternity had no interest.Washington's Birthday.The reason assigned for the American residents here not celebrating Washington\u2019s birthday as usual, is because most of them have had serious afflictions in their families during the past year.Stocks.The market this morning was depressed, owing to more rumours of failures, and in sympathy with the Montreal market.The City and the Street Railway.The Toronto Street Railway Company has entered an action against the city, claiming the value of 553 toise of broken cobble stone, $7,000.Lotteries (0 be Stopped.The Crown Attorney of the County of York having heard that a lottery scheme is being worked up

meeting of the English Loan directorate was held on Tuesday afternoon, chiefly to consider the question of the solicitorship.À.certain section of the Board are desirous that Mr.W.R.Meredith, the present solicitor, should resign, in order that Mr.J.F.Hellmuth should be appointed to the position.This, Mr.Meredith, in view of the strong monetary vote passed at the last meeting of shareholders approving his appoinément, declines to do.The singular feature is that the same board which appointed Mr.Meredith is requesting his résignation.It is stated the tem per cent.call to be made is delayed

Legislature will be asked to make suitable provision for the Dominion Exhibition to be held in St.John, this fall.À measure regarding the question of amending the constitution of the Province, and vesting legislation in one legislative chamber, subject to the rights of the Crown and such provisions as may be in the interests of the people, will be submitted during the session.The first test between the Government and the Opposition in the House of Assembly came on the selection of Speaker.Mr.J.E.Lynott was the Government candidate, and Dr.Vail, of Kings, the Opposition\u2019s choice; Lynott was elected by 21 to 17.Every member was present but one, and the candidates did not vote.The address in reply to the Speech was moved by Flewelling, of Kings, seconded by Tibbitts, of Victoria, and it was made the order of the day for Saturday.Hon.Daniel Hanington, father of the Premier, was elected President of the Legislative Council, vice Seely deceased.An interesting question arisen in the.Legislative Council.Hon.Wm.M.Kelly, a few years ago, removed from this Province to Toronto.He continued to hold his seat and attended tlie sessions regularly.Last year the Government declared his seat vacant, on the ground that he had removed from the Province and appointed Allan A.Davidson, who had supported them in the Assembly to the vacancy.Mr.Kelly has arrived here and denies the right of the Government to act as they did and claims his seat.In the house of Assembly this afternoon the bill giving the Government the sole power of appointing sheriffs passed iis second reading, after a lengthy debate, the vote being 22 against, 15 for.\u2014 _\u2014_ HALIFAX.Fire Insurance Rates Incroased.HauIFAX, February 22.\u2014Within the ast few weeks the rates of fire insurance in Halifax have materially increased, in some instances more than doubled, and in others intimation has been given that the policies would not be renewed.It is said that the gentleman who was recently in the city, representing the head offices of fire insurance companies, reported somewhat unfavourably of the facilities for extinguishing fires in cases of emergency; such as have occurred in other cities.\u2014John Dunn, the English ruler of a rtion of Zululand, has written a letter to ord Derby, Foreign Secretary, protesting arainst the recent settlement of the affairs of that country.\u2014Miss Kate Kane, of Milwaukee, appeared as attorney for the defendant in the recent murder trial in that city, aud conducted her case very creditably.Her client was a coloured man, and had fatally wounded another coloured man in an altercation.He was convicted of manslaughter in the second degree, which is equivalent to deciding that he acted in self- defence.~TIt is understood in Washington that Mr.Chandler wrote to Commander Corringe, on furlough, asking if he intended to form a connection with foreign interests.Commander Corringe resented some expression by the Secretary, a correspondence followed and he was ordered to Washington.Yesterday he resigned from the navy.He will take charge of the ship yards bought by English capitalists.\u2014Henry C.Robinson, of Hartford, Conn., told in a recent lecture of a visit that he made to one of the smaller factories in Connecticut, whose owner boasted that in the year preceding Le had ° \u201c made\u201d $72,000.oing through the factory, when he got away under the roof he found bobbins tended by children\u2014boys of from eight to twelve years.Their faces were colourless.The man who * made\u201d $72,000 told Mr.Robinson that those little Loyswere earning fifteen cents a day, and twenty minutes\u2019 rest at noon.FROM THE OLD WORLD.Jules Ferry Proclaims the Policy of The New French Cabinet, THE SITUATION IN

Deputies this afternoon M.Ferry explained the programme of the Ministry and solicited the confi- Jdence of the country.The Government\u2019s first care would be to satisfy the wish of the Chamber by applying the law of 1834, under which the Princes would be deprived of their military posts.The Government thought that nothing more was necessary for the present.The Republic was not endangered, and in the event of conspiracy would have ample powers to protect itself by the rights inherent in all Governments.Without infringing upon the essential liberties of the people the Government demanded that measures be taken agaiust the utterances of seditious cries and agaust the authors of seditious placards.Irritating questions and fruitless discussions must be set aside, leaving to the Government the initiative which belongs to it, as a right.Reforms were required in the magistracy.A military bill and an habitual criminal bill would be introduced: The budget for 1884 would shortly be presented.The Government proposed to facilitate the execution of public works and te introduce measures ooking to the organization of a protectorate in Tunis and the reduction in the expenses of its occupation.The foreign policy of the Government would be peaceful, but not necessarily one of inaction.Whenever our interests and honor are engaged, we must maintain France in the rank to which she is entitled.It is essential to give Europe the spectacle of a Government sure of its future, and better armed against factions of administration, strong and respected, of a parliamentary republic resting upon the French virtues of good sense, labor, and love of progress.Paris, February 22.\u2014Prax, a Paris Bonapartist, commented on the silence of the Government regarding the revision of the constitution, and gave notice of a motion therefore.The report of the commission concerning Ardrieux\u2019s proposal for revision was presented.A motion to adjourn for à month the debate on the Ministry\u2019s programme was lost by 320 to 170 and its discussion was fixed for Saturday.GERMANY.Hamburgh and the Zollverein.HAMBURGH, February 22.\u2014The House of Burgesses has adopted a compromise scheme to incorporate Hamburgh with the Zollverein or \u201cCustoms Union,\u201d which has for its purpose the establishing a uniform rate of customs.The Senate is likely to accept the compromise.American Pork.BERLIN, February 22.+The law against American hog products goes into effect one month after it is published.Special rules will be made for supplying ships.The Clericals in Germany.The Landtag discussed the estimates of the Ministry of Worship.Windhorst, leader of the Clerical, said the Government was blameable for the conflict with the Vatican, asit had not been earnest in its negotiations.The Government is not desirous of peace with the Vatican though the Emperor favours it.Schorlemer affirmed that the State Roman curia in order to terminate the expatriation of Catholic communities, which promoted demoralization and prepared the way for the triumph of Socialism.The Minister of Public Instruction said that he would place no difficulty in the way of religious schools, but desired to prevent the exercise of a certain special influence over the schools.The Government had almost entirely removed the sequestration of the incomes of the clergy, and pardoned Bishop Melchers.This statement caused general surprise.RoME, February 22.\u2014A despatch says that Jacobini\u2019s last note decla Prussia must consent, through the revision of the May laws, or she will deprive the Catholic Church in Germany of the very conditions of existence.Marshal Bazaine\u2019s Defence.Maprip, Feb.22\u2014Marshal Bazaine\u2019s book is entitled \u201cEpisodes of the War of 1870, and the Siege of Metz.\u201d It is dedicated to Ex-Queen Isabella of Spain.Among the documents in the work are Bazaine\u2019s autograph report to the Emperor Napoleon, while the latter was at Wilhelmshohe, and the letter from the Marshal to the Empress Eugenie en September 14, 1870, advising her to take a horse and assume the command of the Metz division.The Marshal considers the defensive qualities of Alsace and Lorraine were not utilized to the fullest extent.He asserts that the disorganization of the War Department at the beginning of the war rendered it impossible to obtain useful information or instructions from head quarters.He declares he never saw a mitrailleuse until that weapon was brough* into Metz.ITALY.Washington\u2019s Birthdaythat they worked ten hours a day, with |

Respond.A CHANNEL TUNNEL COMMITTEE.LoNDoN, February 22.\u2014In the House of Commons Mr.(Chamberlain said the Jovernment would move the appointment of a Committee of both Houses to inquire into the expediency of the construction of the Channel tunnel, Mr.Trevelyan stated that a short-hand writer was present at the examination of witnesses at Dublin Castle.Witnesses were not threatened, nor were they proffered drink.The debate on Mr.Gorst\u2019s amendment was resumed.Mr.*J.Lowther promised Conservative support to a vigorous policy toward Ireland.Mr.Forster said that but for the Phœuix Park murders Ireland would have believed Parnell to be supreme, and would have become ungovernable.The recent disclosures increased the suspicion that the Land League was connected with the outrages.The public expected that Parnell would have elucidated this point.No mere disclaimer would be sufficient.He charged Parnell with heading an organization which started the agitation that promoted outrages and incited murder.Parnell reaped the advantages of the agitation.He did not plan the outrages but connived at their commission.O\u2019Kelly shouted \u201cIt\u2019s a lie,\u201d several times.He was suspended by a vote of 305 to 20.Mr.Forster reiterated the charges against Parnell, quoting from his s eeches that murder was unnecessary.e said the wretches who committed the Phenix Park assassinations had not acted on the letter but the spirit of these speeches.Until Parnell expressed his regret and repentance he could not communicate with him.A feeling was now rising, even in Ireland, against the agitation.Parnell and his friends had been unveiled and unmasked.There were loud cries for Parnell, but he did not move.Mr.O'Donnell attempting to interpose was ruled out of order.Mr.Parnell moved the adjournment of the debate, which was agreed to.Loxpon, Feb, 23.\u2014The Standard says that no speech in recent years has produced such interest and excitement as Forster\u2019s attack last night on the policy of the Land League.The Times prints a copy of a manifesto issued by 30 old members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood resident in London, addressed to

Car's Statements, P.J.SHERIDAN INTERVIEWED.He will not go te Britain as \u201c He Thieks he would Hang.\u201d CAREY'S WIFE COMPLETELY BOYCOTTED.Opinions of the Fenians and Land Leaguers.THE ENGLISH PUBLIC MUCH EXCITED.English Opinien.LoxnoN, February 22.\u2014 There has arisen from this country an exulting shout of satisfaction that the noose is already round the necks of the Phonix Park assassins, tempered only by the regret that Carey should have slipped his neck out just in time.The startling revelations of Dublin Court House form the sole topic of conversation inghouse, club, street and wherever men cet and talk.The newspapers print column upon column, editorial upon editorial.All classes of society are profoundly moved and excited and eagerly await further developments and the news of the success of the detectives, who doubtless are tracking the other members of the conspiracy, Amid the general satisfaction there exists also strong party feeling.The Con- + servatives are seizing a grand opportunity\u2019 to taunt the Government with the Kilmainham compact.The St.James Gazette has a bitter party article, and thinks that though the Government have had to endure many humiliations in Ireland none can distress them more than the necessity of pardoning a villain like James Carey for the sake of his information.\u201cIt seeins most deplorable that they could not contrive to keep the rope round the wretch\u2019s neck, than whom no man in the dock is more guilty, dangerous and detestable, but there is consolation in the thought that his death would not create such terror in the assassination club as his treachery, and that no Invincible brother will ever trust another in matters of murder till the memory of this infamous creature has grown dim.\u201d The Land League.The St.James\u2019 goes on to speak of the implication of the Land Leaguers with the assassins.© Above all,\u201d it says, \u201c we find associated with them that Mr.Sheridan whose influence with the Moonlighters in going through the country and stopping outrages was the price paid by Mr, Parnell and his friends to the Government for their release from Kilmainham in the bargain known as the \u2018Kilmainham compact.\u201d It is all very well to say that Mr.Parnell and his party now lie under a fearful responsibility, because it is true to say it.But what of the other party, which, at the very time when the murder of Mr.Forster, Earl Cowper and Mr.Burke was already planned, scourged the ears of all true Liberals with the cry fer making a clean sweep of the Castle.And what of the leaders of the party who, well knowing as they did from Mr.Forster, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and a member of the Cabinet, what they were about, trafficked with Mr.Parncll to buy off for a time, not to destroy, the murder policy which Carey\u2019s evidence really ade no clearer than it was before.\u201d London the Centre of the Comspiracy.The Pall Mall Gazette, referring to Mr.Sheridan, says he appears to lave been the confidential emissary of the Central Murder League which supplied funds and promised arms for the assassinations, but it is almost as difficult to believe that Mr.Parnell, who proffered the assistance of Sheridan, knew anything more than Sir W.Harcourt, who accepted it, of his real relations with the assassins.\u201cThe originators of the conspiracies are still at large.The central nest of the assassins is not Dublin, but London.The Walsh who went to Ireland to found the Murder League was commissioned by a direcfor- ate of assassins whose Vehmgericht was set up in this city.Walsh himself seems to come from the North of England.The funds and weapons were supplied from London.Here is where the final blow must be struck at the organization of assassination.Walsh is mot yet arrested.The mysterious ¢ Number One\u2019 has hitherto escaped the vigilance of the police.No satisfaction at the success of the Irish executive in hunting down the assassins in Dublin should lead to a momént\u2019s relaxation of exertions to discover and punish the assassins whose headquarters may be within ag stone\u2019s throw of Scotland Yard.\u201d \u2018The Fenian Opinion.NEw York, February 22.\u2014The Irish Nation, John Devoy\u2019s paper, has received the following: \u2014 \u2019 Loxpoy, February 22.\u2014The murder trials at Dublin are still the all-absorbing topic of the hour, and the interest is deepened by the revelations of Carey, the self-confessed murderer, who, to save lis life, turned informer.The acceptance of his testimony on condition of giving him his life is the crowning disgrace for the Government and reveals utter rottenness, The English system in Ireland is known.There was a sharp struggle at the Castle before it was finally decided to bring him forward as a witness.Three different meetings of the Privy Council at Dublin were held, at which the question was discussed.The reward expected by the Government for this infamy was the implication of the Land League leaders, and the evidence is carefully directed to that end.The Tory speeches in the House of Commons are singularly bitter in tone, and party feeling is running high.The Irish party is thus enabled to maintain an attitude of reserve.Many attempts have been nade to draw Parnell into an expression of opinion about the Dublin trials and a speech of apology.The Irish leader having to concess or conceal maintains a dignified restraint.Carey\u2019s statement that the murder was suggested by an article in the Freemmn is due to old and bitter hatred to Mr.Gray, who opposed several swindling schemes which the informer had concocted against the Dublin corporation.Shortly before the trial it is known that Carey uttered threats of murder against Mr.Gray, and Lie now secks to wreak vengeance on him by establishing a connection between the attempts at murder and the Freeman's crNicism on the Irish administration.| !

think it necessary to guard the judges and Government officals, and have given orders that the special police detailed for this service shall be withdrawn.This is thought to be a proof that the Government has a strong hand on the Assassination League.A private examination was held yesterday in the case of Joseph Smith, arrested for complicity in the assassination conspiracy.His statements agreed with those made by the informer Carey.Cork, February 22.\u2014John O\u2019Brien, member of the Corporation, and ex-sus- pects Hoduett and Gilhooley, whose sentence¢ to imprisonment for using

source of the cruel libel against me.\u201d It is said that a complete alih, has been proved in regard to McAdaras and the Invincibles.Carey\u2019s Wife an Accomplice.CHicAgo, February 20.\u2014James Hackett, an employee of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, who resigned from the Dublin Metropolitan.Police in 1881 rather than obey orders to fire on the people, makes public a long statement regarding the informer Carey, with whom he was on very intimate terms.» Hackett says that lie was at Carey\u2019s house on the night of the murder of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr.Burke.Carey\u2019s wife was flushed and excited, and was cvident- ly trying to conceal something.She endeavoured to hide some weapons under her cloak.Carey was in the house, but would not present himself.Subsequently he expressed gratification at the murder.Hackett says he has good reason to believe that Carey planned the murder and was the chief conspirator ; that his wife was within easy distance at the time of the tragedy, and that she carried away the bloody weapons and concealed them, , ¢ Number One.\" The authorities have received valuable information concerning \u201c Number One \u201d and are quite positive as to his identity.Mrs.Carey has been completely \u201cboycotted,\u201d\u201d since he turned informer.Not à tenant has paid rent and notices are chalked on\u2019 the doors of her property warning persons not to pay rent to the ¢¢ cursed informer.\u201d Fitzpatrick, arrested for complicity in the murder of Cavendish and Burke, and who, it was stated, acted as watcher, has been discharged.Byrve\u2019s Denials.PARIS, February 22 \u2014Frank Byrne says:\u2014\u201c Carey\u201ds evidence concerning myself and wife is absolutely untrue.I was never a member of a secret Irish organization.I deny that the Land League and\u2019 the \u201cInvincibles\u201d were ever connected, directly or indirectly.I believe Carey\u2019s evidence was concocted for the purpose of implicating the Land League in the Phoenix Park murders.\u201d It is understood that Byrne proceeds to London this evening.Sheridan Afraid of the Rope.New York, February 22.\u2014P.J.Sheridan sayt that he never met Carey in his life.His reference to the interview in Angel Hotel, Dublin, and the promise to forward arms are fabricated.Sheridan admits travelling through Ireland disguised as a priest, but it was for the purpose of recovering property taken from him during his exile aud to uphold the \u201c No Rent\u201d manifesto.He denies any complicity in the Phenix Park assassination but proposes to remain in New York, as he thinks that if the British Government got hold of him he would hang.NEW WORLD NEWS, THE SINGING CONVICT REVOLT Funeral of the Victims of the School Panic.WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY

SING, February 22\u20141t is stated that Superintendent Baker told the Warden that the Governor urged upon him the necessity of using most vigorous measures to restore and maintain discipline.The revolt must be suppressed at all hazards, Lt is said the plan agreed upon is to give the Twelve little \u2014 convicts a chance to-day to recons their determination not o work, an they still hold out to remove as many of them, as the old place will accommodate to the old female prison, and there confine them in bare cells without beddine upon half a pound of bread and a cup of water a day.Certain long-term men and those who lost their commutation are for carrying the revolt through to a des perate end and the short-term men are opposed to the plan.Yesterday there were fourteen fights between .Tepresentatives of the two classes.Severs] non-revolting conviets were severely injured.Three were carried to the hospi tal.Keeper Thies received ugly cuts on the head yesterday, but the manner in which he got them could not be ascertained.He was taken to the hospital too weak to stand.Warden Brush 1s confi dent he can cope with any ordinary ous.break.In the arsenal there are fifty new

these 232 are employed under the contract system.The Warden expects before the end of the week the whole prison may be in revolt, It is understood extra guards will be employed to-day.The revolt in

attempt-of a party of amateurs to enact on the stage of a regular theatre fur the benefit of a missionary enterprise.It coutains more wit, point and effective situation than the majority of these pieces.1t is a very successful effort in making people laugh, and was greeted last night by a full house.The box plan opens to-morrow at the box office, St.James street.QUEEN'S HALL.6 MISS EMMA THURsBY.\u201d A good many years have past since our music loving citizens had the pleasure uf listening to the silvery voice of Miss Emma Thursby.Tlie impression she made here on her first visit was so marked and indeliable that last night it was found impossible to seat or even give standing room to those who wished to greet her once more to Montreal.The compliment paid her by our citizens was well deserved, for we imagine that it will be a hard task to find a better concert singer than Emma Thursby She has improved very much since we last heard her both in execution and phrasing, and modulation of the voice.Her voice is a soprano of a remarkable sympathetic quality, full in tone, very true and flexible and of good range.She has complete control of 1t and sings with the greatest ease the most difficult runs and passages with a sweetness and expression that at once disarm criticism.The purity of her method is at once striking, forsle is absolutely free of all those little tricks, which so many prima-donnas are accustomed to bring to their aid to send a number off with eclat.The charming and fascinating young Cuntuirice iswperfect mistress of Tier art, and her magnificent voice finds ne difficulty in rendering all the possible chromatic scales, variations of all kinds, trills and the sudden changes with the greatest facility.Her singing of the celébrated Shadow Song,\u201d from \u201cDinorah.\u201d the third number on the programme was simply sublime, and would have called forth, we are certain, * the most marked approval from that queen of song, Adelina Patti.Miss Thursby received for this a double recall and kindly responded to the loud applause with that good old Scotch song \u2018\u201c Within a Mile of Edinboro\u2019 Town,\u201d It is needless to say that on the finish of it long and loud were the cheers, which she drew forth from the audience by her expressive singing.In the second part she was not quite so happy in her seleetions.\u2018 The Swedish Melody\u201d was slightly monotonous and tame, but it was redeemed by the brilliancy of the ¢ Mazurka.\u201d The was sweetly and effectively rendered.Miss Thursby is without doubt a great artiste, and worthily fills the place of the late Parepa Rosa\u201d on the concert stage.Her support was capital throughout, Mdme.Liebe in her violin solo calling down the house, by her feeling and artistic playing.She has a free and broad method of treatment of her themes, combined with the most perfect and delicate shading.She was the recip tent of a handsome bouquet and received a double recall.Herr Carl Formes, though creeping fast into the seer andjvellow leaf of ace, stilt holds his own against the pretentious youngsters, of the present day.He sang with vim \u201c Ruddier than a Cherry\u201d from Acis and Galatea\u201d and an aria from ¢ Le Mazze di Figaro.\u201d Mr.Liebe is an accomplished cellist and Miss Heimlicher a pianist.Both these artists played several numbers with great intelligence and their efforts received the warm acknuw- ledgments of the audience.The concert was a grand success in every way, and we trust the day is not far distant when we shall have the pleasure of welcoming Miss Thursby back again.QUEEN\u2019S HALL.\u2014EASTER MONDAY.The sale of tickets for the Printers\u2019 ball and supper, which is to take place in the Assembly Rooms of the Queen\u2019s Hall, on [aster Monday, was commenced on Wednesday, and froin the number already disposed of, the undertaking cannot but be a decided success.Mr.A.Joyce, the well- known

Laforce, Notre Dame street ; La Minerve office, and A.P.Pigeon, HERaLD office.\u2018 THE MAYORALTY.THE MEETING AT PAPINEAU SQUARE.About five hundred people congregated last evening at the Papineau Square Market to attend the neeting called by Mayor Beaudry.Ex-Ald.Gauthier was called to the chair, and explained the object of the meeting.Mr.Beaudry then came forward and addressed the meeting.He stated that he had first made up his mind not to again present himself as a candidate for the Mayoralty ; but upon being called upon by an influential deputation,who had requested him to allow himself to be nominated, he had reconsidered his former decision and had decided to again contest the Mayoralty.He did not consider that Mr.Bulmer was qualified to be Mayor of Montreal, and ve- | sides there were certain facts which impelled the citizens of the East End to vote for a French Canadian, and among these was \u2018the Pacific Railway station, which it was necessary that they should secure for that end of the city.He accused Mr.Bulmer of having opposed his action on the 12th July, 1878, about the Orange procession, and of having called a meetin of the magistrates of the city.He hel that he had done his duty on that and on all other occasions, and believed that he was entitled to the support of the French Canadians.Mr.Bulmer next came forward and stated that he had been requested to allow himself to be placed in nomination by a most nuroerously signed petition, and he had considered it his duty to respond to the call.He was not the candidate of any party or nationality , all parties and nationalities had requested him to come forward.He held that the reasons which Mr.Beaudry had given to again become a candidate, and this, in oppositon to his pledged word, were insufficient.In reply to Mr.Beaudry, he said that he had never called the meeting of Magistrates ; nor did he ever lory over the action of certain parties in &.Louis Ward.The whole accusations brought against him were illosionary ones, and any man of common sense could not be led away by them.During the time that he had been a member of the City Council he had worked fervently for the DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, FRIDAY.FEBRUARY 23 city\u2019s interests, and uo man could point to a stain on his civic or private record.He beiieved it was an adnutted fact that this was the turn of the Enrlish speaking electors of Montreal tu -vieut their candidate, and in this he sincerely hoped that he would receive the support of the majority of the French clectors, Hon.Senator Thibaudeau then followed in support of Mr.Beaudry, and -tated that it was necessary for the population of the East End to elect Mayor Beaudry to look after their interests in the Abattoir and Canadian Pacific Railway matters.Concerning the accusation he had brought against Mr.Bulmer about his ordering down the French flag he would accept the latter\u2019s explanation.- Ald.Roy followed in support of Mr.Bulmer, and held that it was the duty of the French-Canadians to vote for Mr.Bulmer, and pointed to a number of instances in which Mr.Beaudy had failed to iook after the interests of the city.Ald.Rainville replied to him in favour of Mr.Beaudry.Mr.Murney then spoke, and wag re- fied to in a forcible manner by Mr.Mularky.: The meeting then adjourned.REST AND COMFORT TO THE SUF- - FERING.: \u201c

annual report of the Minister of Inland Revenue shews that the entire receipts for the last fiscal year were 86,- 610,222, as against $6,151,433, for 1880-1, being an increase of $458,789, or about 7.4 per cent.This increase was made up as follows :\u2014 Upon Excise.\u2026.\u2026.$585,238 Upon Culling \"*unbor.8.384 \u2014-\u2014\u2014 518,622 Deduet\u2014 Decrcase on Public Works.43,006

usual, spirits, from which the revenue was $3,655,490 ; tobacco follows, being credited with a contribution of $1,903,805.There were during the year]4,028,847 proof gallons of spirits manufactured, for which purpose 70,402,810 pounds of grain were used, 77 per cent of which was Indian corn, and the remainder rye, malt, wheat and oats.These figures show that most of the \u201cold rye\u201d that is so largely consumed in the country must come from corn.With the exception of one distillery in Manitoba, the entire quantity was produced by six distilleries, all within the Province of Ontario.Malt added $387,597 to the revenue; petroleum $23,884, and seizures $11,090.The quantity of malt manufactured during the yoar was over 70,000,000 pounds, and of this the exports reached 40,000,000 pounds.About 12,000,000 gallons of malt liquor were.produced, or over three gallons per head for every man, woman and child.in the Dominion.Manufactured tobacco reached 10,018,373 pounds, of which 454,884 pounds were of Canadian growth, and paid duties to the extent of $16,195.The Minister is of the opinion that there should be a more liberal system in order to promote a larger growth of native tobacco.He admits that this would involve a loss of revenue, but adds that: \u2014« A tobacco will be made that will displace even in Ontario much of the black tobacco now made from foreign leaf and paying 20 cents per pound duty.But the main object will have been attained.Every grower of tobacco will have a legitimate market in which he can openly dispose of his products, and the price obtainable will be just that which its excellence demands.Morcover, the interest of both the honest cultivator and the manufacturer will be to protect the Government against the illicit traffic which has for years defied all the efforts of the Department to check.\u201d Petroleum, which appears in these figures, is not a very important item of revenue.The number of Canadian packages inspected was 147,465, and of foreign 33,904.The entire income in the way of fees amounted to but $23,884.The vinegar manufactured during the year was 435,284 standard gallons; and the methylated spirits 106,430 gallons, producing together a revenue of $33,- 602.There has been a falling off in receipts from public works, namely from $481,066 in 1881 to $438,060 in 1882, The Welland, St.Law- \u2018rence, Ottawa and Burlington Bay Canals show a decrease, while the other canals figure up an increase.In commenting on this fact the Minister says :\u2014 \u201cA similar falling off is observable in respect to the Erie Canal.So that it would appear to be aitributable in part to the shortness of the crop to be moved, and in part to the increasing railway facilities between the Western States and tidewater.\u201d There may be something in this, for while there has been an increase in the tolls, arising from the produce of the forest, of animals, and from manufactures and merchandise, wT the tolls upon the produce of agrieul- | ture have declined nearly 50 per cent, mainly in the items wheat and corn.The inspection of weights and measures may, to some extent, protect the public against fraud, but it certainly is not done for nothing.The receipts last year amounted to but $26,844, while the cost of collection was 857,784\u2014a very considerable difference.The Government appear to think that they are paying too much for the work, for wo are told that \u2018the experience of the last two or three years has satisfied the Department that a biennial inspection can be made by a considerably reduced staff, and by au order «of His Excellency in Council the maximum number uf officers is determined at fifty, to which number the staff is being gradually reduced as vacancies oecur.\u201d Another item that has the balance on the wrong side is culling timber.Last year the reccipts in the way of fees under this head were $46,780, while the expenditure reached $51,350, a difference of over $4,500.Taken al- tegether, the figures of the Inland Revenue Department are not devoid of interest, though there appears to be room for improvement in the working of some of the branches.THE NEW BRUNSWICK LEGISLATURE.Another of the Parliaments with which Canada has heen endowed was opened yesterday, the Grand Council of the Province of New Brunswick having then been convened and charged as to their duties and responsibilities by the representative of royalty and vice-royalty.New Bruns wick, like Quebec, has two chambers, but it is satisfactory to notice that, unlike the poverty-stricken Government of this Province, its administrators are not content to burden the tax-payers with the cost and the wear and tear attendant on running the fifth wheel of the legislative coach.His Honour significantly draws attention to the subject, promising a Bill to vest the powers of legislation in one legislative chamber.Will the old ladies-\u2014or rather old gentlemen\u2014repeat the tactics, with which we in this Province are specially familiar, of obstructing the wishes of the electorate by voting \u2014what no one else believes\u2014that their usefulness is not gone, if ever, indeed, there was any utility in them.The days of double chambers in the Legislature ought to belong to the past.\u2018They are a luxury too expensive for poor people such as we are.We should, we may remark, have been gratified if the speech Lad looked toward Maritime Union.Indeed, there must be a considerable amount of reform in all the Provinces with respect to the constitution, the cost, the duties, and the territorial limits of our enlarged municipal councils.Every Canadian is suffering, not alone in his pocket, but in his sentiments, by the present condition of our Provincial Parliaments, which, although they have nothing to do with politics proper, affect them and get mixed up in matters which do not concern them, to the loss of those with which they have legitimately to do.The Ontario Boundary question is one about which there has for long been considerable controversy.After over fifteen years association if we have not become sufficiently assimilated to be able to revise our old provincial boundaries and reduce our provincial organizations by at least one half, why is it?Much of what has been said and \u2018done upon recent boundary differences would have been well unsaid and undone.It is.therefore to be hoped that as the outcome of it all we may have a considerable reduction in the number of our legislative establishments which, with all their pomp, ceremony and expense are in the proportion of about one to every 550,000 people.But, to return te the speech from the gubernatorial chair, it is pleasant to learn that the interests of the Province of New Brunswick are all in a satisfactory condition and, moreover, that it is felt by those who are in power that \u201cthese blessings call for devout thankfulness to the giver of all good.\u201d However, New Brunswick's finances are not quite as straitened as our own, and this may account for the expression of gratitude on the part of the Maritime men, It is suggested, and the idea is a happy one, that as the present year is the centennial of the landing of the loyalists in the Province, to the Provincial Exhibition something more of a Dominion character should be given.No doubt, if something of the kind could be accomplished a considerable step would be taken in the direction of a more solid unification of our people.At present we are one in name, 80 far as nationality is concerned, but we are far from that fortunate condition when the slightest occasion arises for sectional jealousy.Railway enterprise is, it appears, making satisfactory advancement, and the numerous railways now in construction are to be supplemented by many others that are being surveyed.Immigration and agriculture ave matters that are not to be allowed to be passed over in silence by the members assembled, and that there is a feeling of this kind among the people is proved by the attention that the newspapers and their correspondents have been paying to them for months, New Brunswick has undoubted agricultural resources and the Provincial Stock Farm has done almost as much service as was expected from it in indueing the farmers to improve the cattle with which they stock their lands.The New Brunswick journals speak warmly of the inducements which they can offer to settlers and we expect from the allusions made to them that means will be taken to have these advantages made use of.The Government appear to be sanguine of an early settlement of the Eastern Extension claim while, and, it was urgently necessary that action be taken, the gaol and prison system is to be overhauled and improved.If is also hoped that, at an early day, a test casc may come before the Supreme Court to fix the responsibility, under the British North America Act, for the maintenance of criminals sentenced for terms under two years.Legislation is spoken of relating to the Riparian and Fishery Rights of the Province in certain streams, to the better appropriation of the Grammar School Allowance in order to facilitate the building of scheol houses, to the office of the Private Secretary of the Lieut.-Governor and to the expenses connected with the maintenance of Government House.Possibly the New Drunswickers will be able to profit by the experiences which we have had in connection with the running of Spencer Wood, and if what we have learned shall tend to their advantage at least something will have been gained by what we have had to pay.The programme of ses- sional work at which we have just briefly glanced we do not deem to be meagre.It involves a good deal of work and embraces matter of much importance, and this is recognized by the advisers of His Honour, who concludes :\u2014\u201c 1 trust that with the Divine blessing your labours may advance the welfare of our people, as well as strengthen the influence of our representative institutions.\u201d INDIAN AFFAIRS, The annual report of the Department of Indian affairs for the Dominion of Canada has been laid before Parliament.As usual it contains much information and statistics tending to show that on the whole the native tribes are improving in their condition, especially on the older reservations.large sections of roving bands on the plains of the Far West, to whom civilization is a new thing, cannot be induced to settle down as tillers of the soil.They still expect that the buffalo will return, and while they hold to this belief they will not work.It is estimated that there are in the Dominion about 110,000 Indians distributed as follows :\u2014 Ontario., co ovveniienes secs savane 17,126 Quebec.PES 11,089 Nova Scotia.\u2019aucase ses 2,228 New Brunswick.1,486 Prince Edward Island.312 Manitoba & N.W.00 8200000000 .37,044 Athabaska and

truth respecting the restlass bands of the West who are ever on the move.The lands sold during the year amounted to 48,903 acres, and the sales to $54,192.84.These lands are, for the most part, situated in various parts of the Province of Ontario, The collections on account of old and new sales and leases amounted to $70,475.65.The quantity of land still in the market is, in round numbers, 493,000 acres: The Indian population resident on the reserves foot up a total of 81,634, leaving only about 30,000 who are still leading a savage life, though, no doubt, many of the reservation Indians are not fully civilized and havea decided objection to the plough and the harrow and to everything else that the white man makes, except fire water.The total quantity of land under cultivation last year was 67, 499 acres, of which 47,578 acres were in Ontario.The Indians own 8,632 huts or houses, and 3,373 barns or stables.They have 14,953 horses, and a large number of cows, sheep, pigs and young stock.The British Columbia tribes are the best off in this res- poct, but the Ontario tribes appear to be the most successful farmers and possess more agricultural implements than all the others put together.The crops raised consisted of corn, what, oats, barley, potatoes, hay, &c; while fish and furs were taken to the value of nearly two million dollars.The total number of Indian children educated at their own schools last year was 3,558.The outlay from the Indian Fund during the year was $357,277 ; and the sum now standing to the credit of the Fund is $3,147,271.On the whole our Indian Affairs appear to be pretty well managed, and the contentment and prosperity of many of the tribes furnish a pleasing contrast to the unhappy condition of the native race on the other side of the boundary line.IMPORTED FOR HIS EXCELLENCY.In the Customs returns of the last fiscal year appears the following entry of articles imported free for the use of the Governor-General :\u2014From Great Pritain, 83,261 ; from United States, $1,509 ; from France, $5,540; total, $10,400.Now why should not the Gov- ernor-General, who, taking into account the services he renders, is the best paid man in the Dominion, be obliged the same as any other individual to pay Customs duties on articles which he chooses to import.We see no reason why any exception should be made im his favour.Of course, if he came to Canada to save all he could out of his salary, indeed, to make- money out of it, from his particular standpoint the thing may be all very well, but the taxpayers, we are assured, will not so regard it.It is stated that even the groceries which are consumed in the household are specially imported, and why?If it is because articles of as good a quality cannot be obtained here, then we have a reflection upon our shop-keepers, which they will not fail to resent.If it is by reason of his exemption from the payment of duties, then we have a right to complain.We maintain the Governor in Vice-regal state, and the money which we contribute ought as far as possible to be spent among us.Tea, sugar, groceries and many other articles in cominon use were certainly not those which it was contemplated should be freed from tariff imposts, yet a large proportion of what is required at Rideau Hall.is imported direct, from the other side of the Atlantic.| His Excellency or, perhaps his steward, seems Lo care nothing fur us =o long as his salary is prompily paid.Tei thousands dollars worth of goods is a considerable importation to be made in one year by tho Canadian Governor- General who assuredly is not a wholesale dealer.Most of our previous Governor-(ienerals have confiuvd themselves to special articles which they could not obtain here ; but in this case some of the most ordinary things are made to evade the tariff, purely on Hix Excellency\u2019s account.The Marquis of Lorne has come officially to live among us, let him be of us as far as he can.The fiscal policy of the country is a national one.The Governor-Ge- neral would seem not to approve of it, perhaps, under the impression that no good thing can come out of (\u2018anada.If His Fxcellency will be an importer let him be made to pay his proportion of Customs duties.THE question i» propounded in what is generally recognized as \u201cthe best of books,\u201d \u201c Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Jeopard his spots #7 It bas never been known that a coloured man has become white, except from disease, nevertheless, a curious story has come to us from New York.that a white man has had his mental characteristics considerably changed by the transfusion of blood.A few dayssince 2 Swede staying at the St.Andre became asphyxiated by blowing out the gas in his bedroom, without turning off thesupply.He was found nearly dead, when the medical men restored him by introducing into his veins living blood from a heaithy negro.The consequence appears to have been that the patient has since failed to recognize his wife and child, and that he calls the negro his brother Here is a phenomenon for the physicians and scientists to explain.eee WE are informed that, on the occasion of the recent visit to Ottawa of à number of members of the Contractors\u2019 Association of Montreal, desiring to see Rideau Hall, they obtained a letter from Sir Hector Langevin.On their presenting the letter to the member of His Excellency\u2019s Staff to whom it was addressed, that individual sardouically smiled, and said that he must ask Sir Hector about it.If this statement of the matter be true, we have the fact that a number of Montreal citizens were treated with scant civility : while the Canadian Minister of Public Works received, in the person of those whom he had endorsed, treatment the reverse of what there was reason to anticipate.Surely the official might have had some consideration for the parties; but the trouble was that they were Canadians.Le Quotiden, of Levis, remarks that the tempest in the Local Legislature is passed, and the Ministerial barque sails along more gaily than ever, manned by more than fifty sailors, the conclusions derived from the division recently taken apropos to the Beauport Asylum contract.But we shall see what we shall see before the financial policy of the Govern- | ment is disposed of.The Gazette wing of the Ministerialists oppose the Treasurer, and if the fifty sailors, who have been ae- customed to form part of the buccan- neering crew disagree among themselves, it may he found, erelong, that the vessel will be surrendered to those who will sail her upon more honest cruises.\u2014 Ix the French Chamber yesterday Mr.Feray explained the policy of the Government, which, so far as concerns outside relations, is to be vigorous without being offensive.The Republic was not considered to be in any way in danger, and, although under the provisions of a measure of 1834, the French princes would be deprived of their commissions in the army they would not be otherwise interfered with, The Government, however, would take measures against those who endeavoured to overturn the existing order of things or post up incendiary placards, \u2014\u2014 ee Mr.Demers has introduced a bill to amend the Quebec License Act, to the following effect: \u2014\u201c No person shall have a right to keep a temperance hotel,

Correspondent.OTTAWA, February 22.The House of Commons sat for about 12 minutes to-day, nearly all the Ontario members beiug absent taking part in the elections.Mr.Blake warned the Government that the business of the country would suffer before the end of the session for their delays.Sir Charles Tupper announced that it 1s the intention of the Government to build the Prince Edward Island branch railway.This announcement may be taken asa direct result of the motion made and the debate excited by Mr.Davies a few days ago.The contract-broking fraternity seem to retain their old-time influence over \u2018Sir John Macdonald, for to-day the Premier refus-d Mr.Casgrain an opportunity of roceeding with his measure to prevent frauds in relation to public contracts A voluminous return, brought down to-day, ineludes copies of all correspondence, etc, between the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway since last session.The total amount of subsidies earned by the Company up to the date of the last estimate was $5,810,000 cash and 5,810,000 acres of lands, 581 miles of road being completed.Drawbacks to the amount of $725,625 were made upon vails imported by the Company.\u201cOn 30th March, 1882, the Pacific Company applied for permission to make the pro- osed Sault Ste.Marie branch art of the main line.On April ard Mr.Schrieber,Chief Engineer, reported favourably on the proposition, and a few days afterwards the Minister of Railways submitted the report to Council recommending the change, on condition that the Company satisfy the the Railway Department that the route is practicable.Application for relocation of lines between Red Fox Creek and: Moose Jaw Creek was received on 30th June, and on July 3, Sir Chas.Tupper reported that the alignment proposed was a great improvement on the former location, and the application was granted.Callendar Station has been fixed at a point 120 es west of Pembroke, Mr.Duncan McIntyre having stated in a letter to Sir Chas.Tupper that that point was the most convenient for a junction with a road running north from Gravenhust.Application to change the route between Moose Jaw and the crossing of the South Saskatchewan was also granted.The Pacific Company having made application to have the squatters removed from the railway reserve at Prince Arthur\u2019s Landing, and to be placed in possession of the wharf at that place, the matter was referred to the Deputy Minister of Justice, who reported that while there was nothing in the Pacific Railway Act to justify the transfer of such property to the Company, the Minister of Railways might allow the Company to use it upon such, terms as he thought proper.Accordingiy, acting upon this report, Sir Charles Tupper recommended that the use of the wharf and Railway reserve be granted to the Pacific Company during their pleasure.On the 24th November \u201clast the Pacific Railway Company, through Mr.R.B.Angus, requested that the Government should release and repay to them the $1,000,000 deposited as security for the due performance of their contract, and to accept in lieu thereof a stock certificate of the Credit Valley Railway Company for £339,800 sterling.On 23th of November an Order-in-Council was passed, sanctioning the substitution and the stock certificate having been transferred to the Finance Minister, the $1,000,000 deposit was returned to the Pacific Company.When the certificate was returned from London, however, countersigned by Messrs.Morton, Rose & Co., agents for the Credit Valley Railway Company, conditions were endorsed upon- it which the Government deemed it inadvisable to accept, and a new certificate has been issued which the Minister of Railways has been informed by cable, will be transferred to the (tovernment unconditionally.Col.Brosseau, Mayor of Laprairie, isa delegate from his town in opposition to the Shearer scheme for bridging the St.Lawrence.He claims that the scheme, if carried out, will have the effect of flooding the whole south shore of the river, and also of inflicting a glacial period of several weeks\u2019 duration upon the residents of such localities every spring.Circulars have been received by all members of the House of Commons, signed by Mrs, A.W.McLelan, wife of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries, asking assistance for Rev.Mr.McLean, of Colchester, N.Ss whose church was destroyed by fire a few weeks ago.To-day all the British Columbia mem.- ers waited upon the Minister of Public Works to ask him to make provision for uuproving the inland navigation of that Tovince by dredging, cte., and also to erect public buildings in different locali- tes.Sir Hector promised to give the request his careful attention.Messrs, J.K.Ward, Joel Leduc and Win.Hobbs were in the city to-day obtaining subscriptions to the stock of a new cotton factory about to be erected at Magog.The Supreme Court this morning delivered jndgment in the case of Dickie vs.Woodworth, the King\u2019s County N.S., election appeal.The motion was to quash the appeal ou the ground that the order appealed from was not appeal able.On 16th August, 1882, an order extending the time for the service of the petition, etc, was granted by Mr.Justice Righy upon affidavits of the Sheriff of es County and the petitioner.On 31st day of August the respondent was served With a copy of the petition.On 25th Au- WSU an order nisi was granted Ly Mr.Justice Rigby to set aside the last men- toned order and the service of the Petition, On 27th September, the last mentioned order was made absolute on the ground as appears by the judgment aL is ex parte order of 16th August extending the timo for service was improvidently granted.On 30th of September, 82, Mr.Justice Rigby granted a new order, extending the time for service to 15th October on the affidavits of the peti- toner, the Sheriff and agent of the peti- toner, and on other papers on file on the 12th of October, the respondent was served with a copy of the petition.On 16th October Mr.Justice igby granted 8m order nisi returnable before the Supreme \u2018Court of Nova Scotia to set aside the second service of said petition on the grounds that the last mentioned | order was obtained on a second applica- | lion and on à state of facts known to the petitioner and his council at the time A when the first order for the extensiun of time for service was applied for.On the 15th January: the last mentioned order nist was made absolute by the Court in buco, vu, the list mentioneil ground solely, and the present appeal is from tlie rule making that order absolute.Chief Justice Ritchie was in favour of granting a motion, holding that the appeal could only be taken on the \u201cmerits of the case or on preliminary objection.Mr.Justice Strong concurred.Mr.Justice Fournier dissented, on the ground that the order appealed from was really a preliminary objection, though not stated as such.The statute on that point was very general in character.Mr, Justice Henry took the same view, holding that a motion to diemiss the petition was, in effect, a preliminary objection, and that the Judge could not, for the reasons stated, reverse his own judgment.It would be monstrous to allow any judge to rescind his own order merely because he thought he liad made a mistake.The statute provided for an appeal to the Supreme Court, and the course of the respondent had been irregular and improper.Justices Gwynne and Taschereau supported the motion, which was granted with costs against the appellant.In the case of Berlinquet vs.the Queen, Mr.Girouard, Q.C., counsel for the sup- | pliants, moved for leave to appeal, and to have the case set down for learing before the Supreme Court, notwithstanding the delayed which has occurred in proceeding with the appeal.Mr.Tash, Q.C., and Mr.Ferguson for the Crown, showed cause.J udgment was reserved.The argument was then proceeded with by Mr.Lash, Q.C., in the election appeal, Jenkins ve.Brecken, on the question of the non-initiated ballots.Mr.Hector Cameron, Q.C., was heard contra.Mr.J.A.MacKasey of Halifax, has arrived here for the purpose of waiting on the Minister of Customs to

services.SHAKESPEARE AND HIS INFLUENCE.' LECTURE BY REV.DR.NORMAN.The Y.M.C.A.course of lectures on Literature and Biography was continued last evening in the Association.Hall, when the Rev.Dr.Norman lectured to a large audience on \u201c Shakespeare and his influence upon the English language and literature.\u201d Mr.J, Murray Smith, President of the Association, occupied the chair, and introduced the lecturer to the large audience.Dr.Norman, in introducing his subject, said that it naturally divided itself into two parts, namely, first, the consideration of the poet, and then the effect which his writings have produced.Before touching on the influence which the greatest ot poets had wrought upon our rich and noble Anglo-Saxon tongue, it would appear natural and fitting to examine and bring to the surface their qualities and their excellencies which mark him off from other poets, and place him ou a pinnacle above all those gifted ones in whose souls at different periods of the world\u2019s history the sacred fire of poesy has burned.The lecturer then entered into the merits of the discussion as to the theory that Bacon was the real author of Shalespeare\u2019s plays, which be disclaimed.[tis true, he said, that the question of authorship cannot detract from the sublimity, the splendour and the power of these works, or pluck one leaf from the garland of bays which univer=al consent has placed upoa their writer's brow.The lecturer referred to the universality of Shalceapeare\u2019s plays, and the favour they had gained from all people.He urged on those who listened to him to make theimn- selves, if they had not already done so, Shakesparian scholars.They would never regret the leisure time which they might bestow on this study.There was an inexhaustible wealth of beauty, of truth, of wisdom and of pleasure to be found by a perusal of thee unperishable works.Taste, imagination would be cultivated and and even the young will learn to admire the poet, and thus will be forearmed against the inferior, and even deleterious literature to wliich otherwise they would hetake themselves.If, in the winter evenings at their homes, they would read | Shakespeare, and foster inquiry into any difficulties that may arise\u2014if they would form Shakespeare Societies among their friends, and encourage discussion as to the text and meaning and moral ofthe plays, they would often spend most pleasant and profitable evenings, aud would find that a spirit of critical enquiry, of love for high literature, of pure taste, of admiration for Divine gifte, was being really though imperceptibly established itself in their own minds, and diffusing itself around you.They might surely apply to the poct his own words, \u2018that \u201ctake him all in all, we shall not look upon his like again.\u201d The lecture was listened to with the deepest attention, and at the close a unanimous vote of thanks was returned to the rev.gentleman.The next lecture of the course will be given by Mr.J.T.Donald on \u201cJames Vatt, the Engineer and Scientist.\u201d This course is growing in favour, and no one should fail to take part in it.THE ONTARIO ELECTIONS, LIST OF CANDIDATES \u2014 JOTTINGS OF THE CAMPAIGN.Tiverrox, Ont, Feb.22\u2014On Wednesday night last there was a meeting held here in the interest of Mr, Gillies, who justified his action in taking the field in North Bruce against a brother Reformer, shewing that Mr.Rowand was nominated by an unconstitutionally formed, as well as packed convention, and that he did not violate thereby the principles of true Reform, and consequently considered himself entitled to the support of his friends.Mr Bennet, as Mr.Rowand's representative, attempted to refute these contentions.The meeting pledged themselves to nse all means to secure Mr.(fillies return.: Toroxro, Feb.22\u2014The Globe this morning predicts a sweeping Liberal victory.The Mail does not anticipate.Prof.Goldwin Smith addressed a meeting in favor of

eccasion of the fourth lecture of the Somerville winter course.The lecturer was our talented young townsman, Mr.J.T.Donald, who delivered a most interesting discourse on the subject, \u201c How rocks are formed.\u201d The Very Rev.Dean Baldwin occupied the chair, and briefly introduced the lecturer, who, in prefacing his remarks, suid that it was generally believed that our -earth was originally a fluid mass, and as it cooled, a crust, somewhat of the character of an iron furnace slag, was formed.As cooling continued the crust would contract and becume folded.In the hollows the water would be hot and charged with various acids, which wouldfact upon and decompose the crust to a certain depth.The portions of the primitive crust äbove the water would be acted upon by the carbonic acid of the air and also decomposed.This first crust of the earth is nowhere to be seen, as it is buried beneath its own ruins, yet it is the source from which nearly all the rocks that we now find have been formed.1.Fragmental Rocks, etc., those formed from fragments of pre-exist- ing rocks such as conglomerate and sandstone are chiefly formed by the action of the waves wearing down the cliffs and grinding the debris into coarser or finer fragments which in time form a sold mass, being cemented together by a calcareous, stlicious or ferruginous cement, Certain fragmental rocks have received these fragments from active volcances and the water has assisted in the cementing process.Mount Royal was once an active volcanoe and furnished the material from which much of the rock of St.Helen's Island is formed.Under certain conditions the clay and sandstone of fragmental rocks may be so altered that they become slate and nuca schist.2.Organic rocks are those formed through the agency of plants and animals.Coal 1s a rock which is composed of wood in various stages of alteration.Wood decaying in swamps is gradually converted into peat and this by heat and pressure becomes lignite or brown coal of which there is abundance in the North-West.According to the amount of heat and pressure that act upon the lignite it may become either Bituminous oal or Anthracite or fiually Graphite or plumbago.Limestône is also in many cases formed from the shells of animals.These shells fall to the \u201cbottom of the ocean and are ground by the agitation of the waves into a fine mud or paste.When this mud becomes hardened it gives us coni- pact limestone or if subjected to very great heat it forms marble.In Montreal limestone we can see that the whole is simply à mass of fragments of shells.3.Chemically formed rocks are then due to chemical action betwcen various substances dissolved in the water.The ocean becomes saturated with the material in solution and it gradually accumulates at the bottom, and In course of time a part of the ocean being separated from the main body the water evaporates and leaves the precipitated material as a bed of rock.In this way some\u2018 limestones,gypsums and rock salts are formed.Iron ores which constitute masses ef rock have been gathered together and de- positedin bags by water containing vegetable matter,and thus hardened by heat and pressure.4.Volcanic Rocks are those that have been poured from volcanoes or reservoirs of molten material in a liquid condition.These constitute butasmall portion of the rocks of our earth to such as home granite and trap rocks Another class of rocks of very great value but not of great extent, compared with those already mentioned, are those that constitute veins.These are the repositories of the valnable metals.Veins have been originally fissures in the rocks.They have been filled either by injection from below, in which case the vein is termed a dyke, or by infiltration of water carrying mineral matter in solution, depositing the mineral in the fissure.The lecturer illustrated his remarks in a most interesting manner.Dean Baldwin, at the conclusion of the lecture, in returning thanks to the lecturer on behalf of the audience for his most interesting discourse, stated that it was an illustration of the old saying that there were sermons in stones.The cities of ancient times had passed out of existence, but in the inscriptions on their monuments etc., might be read the glories of the past.He heartily congratulated Mr.Donald on the treat he had afforded them all by his interesting remarks.The next lecture will be delivered by Dr.Robert Bell on \u201cThe Arthabaska-McKen- zie Basin.\u201d THE SCHOOL INVESTIGATION.THE PROTESTANT BOARD'S ADMINISTRATION.The Royal Commission on Schools met at the High School yesterday afternoon.Present :\u2014Messrs.Li.i Davidson (Chairman pro tem.), Doherty, and Glackmeyer.Mr.Ethier, Asst-City Attorney, represented the City Council.Dr.Robins and other gentlemen also attended.The first witness examined, was Ald.Holland, who stated he had been a member of the Council for nine years.He said :\u2014My reason for opposing the increase of the tax is that I Believe that the funds already at their disposal have not en judiciously used.Besides, I consider that after reading any Acts in my possession, the intention was to form common schools.There may be a recent Act changing this, but looking over the original Acts I am convinced that that was the intention.I think one of the great mistakes of the Commissioners was the abandoning of the old High School aud the erection of this building.I find by the statements of the Secretary and the accounts furnished that since the crection of the building the floating debt has swelled up to some $30, 000, Ifind that the interest and sinking fund upon the debt incurred by the erection of the building amounts to about $11, 500 per annum.1 think it would be more satisfactory to the rate-payers that the Board should be elected.I think now you have a good class of educators but poor financiers.If you elect the Board you will get business men who kuow the value of money.I may say in justification of this remark that before Commissioners were appointed we had a number of excellent ucators in the city who either rented or owned their buildings and were sustained by the fees of the pupils.These schools turned out first-class business men and were self-sustaining, and I see no reason why with the large revenue at the disposal of the Board better results have not been obtained.By Mr.Ethier\u2014I think almost every year I received à statement of the Protestant Board.This was I think only for the last three or four years.Hector Munro of the City of Montreal, Builder and Agent, being sworn, said :\u2014 I have management of a great deal of property in Montreal, and considerable experience in the erection of buildings, I reside in St.Antoine Ward, very near the old High School building.1 began az a School Commissioners in 1854, thai is before there was any regular commission, only a few gentlemen who used to meet.| continued to act up to 1869 or 1870, I think.When I left, I left because I was dissatistied with the management of the whole thing.Mr.Lunn then was Secre- tary-Treasurer, and continued so till Mr.Bavnes became so.For a number of CoN years Mr.Lunn and I collected enough throughout the city to meet expenditnre.his was voluntary ; there was no regular commission, and 1t wa~ after they got the Cote Street School tliat the Board wus formed.There was great dissatisfaction among the Protestants on the Board with regard to the amount received from the Corporation and Government, on the ground that the Protestants did not get.their fair propertion of the assessment collected.Ve considered the Protestants paid the larger proportion of the assessment and were entitled to a larger portion than they got.We obtained the rectification.After this we commenced to build these additional schools\u2014first, the Prince Arthur School.I made out plans for that school, I was to be guided entirely by Mr.Arnold, who was the head teacher at that time.The plans were made out at the time entirely from Mr.Arnold\u2019s instructions.Tenders were taken in.The cost amounted to =owme $13,000.Meanwhile, plans were obtained volving changes and alterations to suit the general view of the Commissioners, making the total cost $23,091.66.I haven\u2019y details of other buildings, but the whole amouuted, during my time, to $34,- 524.76.I think the Board have erred in building too exper:sive buildings altogether, not merely this one, but also some of the others.The Commission adjourned at six o'clock until to-morrow afteraoon.CIVIC AFFAIRS POLICE COMMITTEE A meeting of the Police Committee was held yesterday morning, when there were present Ald.Kennedy (Chairman).Dubue, Grenier, Stevenson, T.Wilson and Hagar.A petition was received from the res dents of Sherbrooke street protesting against the removal of the cab stand from Mance staeet.As the stand is in front of vacant lots, the petition was not entertained.A petition, signed by a number of citizens, was read praying that ex-Coustable John Waters, who was discharged for intoxication while on public duty, be reinstated, as lie was on duty on the ice at the time, and the weather was extremely severe.The petition was not entertained.Tenders were received as follows for the repairing of the prison van by supplying it with new wheels and running gear :\u2014 James Kannahan, $120; R.J.& N.Keundall, $175 ; Mr.Donseau, $175.; After some discussion, it was finally decided that if Mr.Kannahan fagreed to do the work as well as the others, the contract be awarded to him at $120.The next question was in regard to the police stables.The chairman staged that the present stables were ina shocking condition, and that a considerable sum had been paidZfor veterinaries and medicine, and the matter demanded prompt at- | tention.Ald.Dubue presented a rough draft for a new stable to be erected in the rear of the present stable.Tt is to be built of brick, with stone foundations 20x35, with carriage shed attached.After discussion, the matter was referred to Ald, Dubuc to have the plans improved and advertise for tenders to be sent in by next Wednesday at 10 a.mn.\u2019 PARKS AND FERRIES.À meeting of the Parks and Ferries Committee;was also held yesterday afternoon when there were present Ald.T.Wilson (Chairman), Mc¢Cord, Rainville, J.C.Wilson, and Grenier.The business before the meeting was the application of Mr.Blackwood, proprietor of the \u2018refreshiment stand on St.Helen\u2019s Island, for leave to transfer his privilege to Mr.Depatie, as the latter intended to live on the Island, After consideration the Committee re- | solved that they would accept Mr.Depatie in lieu of Mr.Blackwood,

Hotel, when Mr.D.Barry, the President, occupied the chair, Mr.McGoun\u2019s motion in regard to the peition of the club, anent the leader of uebec Opposition, was adjourned to a \u2018special meeting on Saturday week.Mr.W.D.Lighthall then submitted a paper stating in precise form the advin- tages of Protection.| An interesting discussion followed, in which Messrs.N.W.Trenholme, Prof.J.Clarke Murray, J.J.Maclaren, Q.C., A.McGoun, jr., W.A.Weir, T.H.Turton, Ewan McLennan, Mr.Hutchinson, and Mr.Trenholme opposed the idea, that under Free Trade money was paid out of the country, thereby impoverishing it, and thus, therefore, our imports should be diminished.Our importations were not paid for with money, but with the result of our labour in grain, lumber, etc., exported, and if protection reduced our mn ports by half we reduce by that much our foreign market for our grain, lumber, etc.On another point, if a country wishes to be a manufacturing nation, it must be able to sell cheaply in the markets of the world, but it cannot do this if what its artisans use is subject to taxation, and the price enhanced by the prohibition of competition resulting from protection, and so the cost of production increased by the element of the higher wages demanded.He pointed to Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool and Birmingham,whose rapid growth was during a free trade regime and to New York, Chicago, St.Louis, New Orleans and San Francisco as places whose growth was not due to protection.More great centres were built up by commerce than by protected industries.The country gained more by employing its men in the natural industries of the country.Take a thousand men and put them to smelting iron, or iu factories.They are of a certain benefit to the country.But take the same men and put them on farms.They would build a thousand homesteads and barns, and required a thousand sets of agricultural instruments, thereby employing an immense amount of labour, besides taking as much wealth from the soil in the shape of grain, etc, as the iron would be.The debate was a most interesting one.The Club intends to hold several such meetings during the year.When vou visit or leave New

breadth, 54 feet; depth, 40.9 to \u2018upper deck, or 45.10 to promenade deck.The gross tonnage is about 7,500 tons.The vessel has five decks.The first or promenade deck, extending the whole length aud breadth of the vessel, is (with the exception of the parts forming the turtle decks at the ends) reserved for the use of the first-class passengers only.On this deck, amidships, is placed the Ladies\u2019 Boudoir, a fine spacious apartment, which will be fitted up and decorated in a most tasteful manner.On the second or upper deck are the cabins for the officers and engineers, the smoking saloon and saloon entrances, also the kitchens, bakerics, sculleries and other offices.These are chiefly contained in a large central deck louse, :220 feet long by 32 broad.The extremities of the upper deck are well pfBtected by extensive turtle decks, that at the forward part extending about 100 feet aft from the stem.On the third or main deck are the cabins for the passengers with their dining- saloons, ladies\u2019 retiring rooms and other accommodations, On this deck accommodation is provided for 340 first-class, 92 second-classland 110 third-class passengers.The first-class staterooms are replete with all fittings usual in the highest class of passenger steamers.The first-class dining- saloon which is placed in the midship part of the vessel, forward of the machinery space, is an exceedingly large and magnificent apartment, 65 feet long by 54 feet wide and 9 feet in height, and is so arranged that all the first-class passengers can dine together.Ample \"light and ventilation are given to the saloon by a large well 25 feet long, by 15 feet wide, extending up to a large skylight placed on the promenade deck, thus allowing the skylight to be kept open even in the stormiest weather.The total height in the saloon at the cupola is over 20 feet.Numerous Jarge lights are also fitted along the sides of the saloon.The second-class saloon and accommodation is situated abaft the engine-room, and will be fitted up in a neat style, complete with all fittings tending to the comfort of the passengers.The whole of the after part abaft the jigger-mast will be fitted up in a substantial manner for the steerage passengers.The greatest care has heen taken 1n the lighting, ventilation and sanitary arrangements throughout.The fourth or lower deck can be almost entirely used for steerage passengers or for cargo as required.On this deck alone accommodation can, if necessary, be provided for 1,000 passengers.The fifth or top deck is used entirely for cargo.The vessel bas four iron masts with yards on the two foremost ones, A complete installation of the electric light on the incandescent principle will be made, adding greatly to the general effect of the tasteful decorations throughout.; Steam-steering gear of the best type is placed in the wheel-house under the after turtle deck with connections for steering from the bridge amidships.Powerful hand-wheel-house.À steam capstan windlass is fitted forward for the efficient working of the vessel.Five large steam winches are fitted at thé cargo hatches for the prompt loading and unloading of cargo.Ten large boats are arranged cn the promenade deck as far as possible beyond the risk of damage from the sea.In fact, the vessel is provided with all the most approved appliances for navigating her, and for promoting the comfort an safety of the passengers.The engines for this vessel are of 12,000 L H P.; they ave compound, having three inverted cylinders, one high-pres- sure, 70 inches diameter, and two low- ressure, each 104 inches diameter.The igh-pressuze cylinder is placed between two low-pressure cylinders, and all are adapted for a stroke of®% feet 6 inches.The valves, which are of the equilibrium piston type, are placed between the cylinders, the high-pressure cylinder having one single piston valve, while each of the low-pressure cylinders have two piston valves connected by a crosshead.The valves are worked by the usual double eccentrics and link motion.The reversing of the engines is effected by a stcam and hydraulic reversing engine.The crank shaft is built and made of Vicker\u2019s crucible cast steel.The diameter of the Journals is 24} inches.The tunnel and propeller shafting is also of Vicker\u2019s steel.The surface condenser is placed at the back of the engines ; it is divided into two parts, each of which forms an inde- ndent condencer for the corresponding ow-pressure cylinder.The water is supplied to the condenser by two large centrifugal pumps having pipes 20 inches in diameter, and capable fof discharging fully 4,100 tons of water per hour.The propeller boss is of Vicker's steel with manganese bronze blades.The boilers for supplying steam to the engines are entirely made of steel plates, and are nine in number.They are double-ended and arranged in three groups with athwartship stokeholes.Each boiler is 16 feet 6 inches in diameter and 16 feet 9 inches long, having eight Fox\u2019s patent corrugated furnaces, 3 feet 6 inches mean diameter, making the total number of furnaces for the nine boilers seventy-two.JoHN ELDER & Sox, per A.D.Bryce Douglass.The Guion Line ave sparing neither pains or expense in making the \u201cOregon\u201d the steamer of the age, and hope to eclipse the wonderful performances of her prede- CEssors as to speed, and at the same time to combine in her all that is new and practical for insuring safety as a primary element in her construction, and at the \u201came time luxurious comfort for all classes of her patrons in her equipment.The best talent in Great Britain is employed in develo ping this vessel and she wil unquestionably he a very superior steamer in every respect, She will carry, when full, 1,542 passengers, and with a full complement of officers and crew, nearly 1,800 persons equal to the population of a smal) village, and is a little world within herself for the few days of each voyage back and forth on the Atlantic.IF NEARLY DEAD after taking some highly puflied ap stuif, with long testimonials, turn to Hop Bitters and fave no fear for any Kidney or Urinary Troubies, Bright\u2019s Disease, Diabetes or Liver Complaint.These diseases cannot resist the curative power of Hop Bitters ; besides it is the best fami] me diciue on earth.A necessary evils, but the Lne of defence has established ina very unmistakable manner how unjustifiable these extortions are, and Low pressing the necessity for protecting the public against them, Mr.Normaundeaw\u2019s communication is chiefly conspicttous for the redundancy of interrogatories with which it is adorned, and fur the diversion he labors te create by exposing the charges wade hy lawyers.That 1s a question of public interest which is not to be despised, and if Mr,:Normandeau will but display half the zeal in endeavouring to redress a wrong, that he shows in the defence of one, he may yet succeed in doin a something for the public good.In the meantime, one grievance is sufticient to deal with, and the \u201cyou're another\u201d style of excuse, had better be reserved for those whose reasoning powers have not emerged beyond the stage that accepts that sort of reply as unanswerable, Mr, Hart\u2019s defence is alike of the indirect kind; it would have been more justly appreciated had he signed himself lecturer to the aspirant notaries ; the public would then have raderstood how very natural it is that ke should argue for the divine right of a privileged class, and how more than human even a notary would be, who should admit that the order for which his chair is maintained is an incubus upon the public.On certain points these champions are unanimous.Both evade the cowardly request that notaries should make their own tariff, and the public be bound by it.Both are especially silent on the provisions of a tariff that is in effect at once a legacy duty upon the inheritance of widows and orphans\u2014a land tax, a-direct impost on rents, and on almost every conceivable transaction which may be a matter of record, and both are very pronounced in the manner they parade the \u201c Profession \u201d before the public, as if that were something ordinary mortals only required to contemplate to acknowledge its claims to profound respect.Well, let us see what the vaunted profession is! A notary is a man who undertakes to put in writing a bargain which has been agreed upon by statute, he stands free from responsibility to the person employing him, and he levies an unusually large charge for his services.Now, in all the ways that men take to carn a subsistence there are no qualifications so universal, among men of moderate education, as those necessary to produce the average notary.To write a bargain in language that properly expresses its terms is not a very difficult matter, yet every notary does not sutceed in doing it.He does not fail, however, to levy the tariff rates for his attempts, Mr, Normandeau claims credit for not victimising the poor man, 0 the relief of the rich, a truth which no one will dispute, because the victimising process has been extended alike to all classes.Here are a couple of specimens, a notarial copy of a document, containing one hundred and forty-one written words, introduced on a printed form, worth ten cents, by a junior clerk working for the wages \u2018notaries are in tlie habit of paying, is produced at rather less than twenty-five cents, and the divinely appointed Notary extracts two dollars for the document from the wages of hard labour, being just the amount of two days pay.Again, a simple conveyance is charged eighty dollars, where the ostensible owner merely parts with his equity of redemption in an encumbered property, because the scribe that wrote the conveyance considers, that if sold without encumbrance, the property might bring $80,000, that the incumbents interest in the property is not worth one dollar, is not of the slightest consequence, #0 long'as an excuse can be found in the tariff for levying an astounding charge.Then the two per cents and two and a half per cents are so much the more oppressive.These are the wrongs the champions would like to defend, and in the attempt, feeling that the truths exposed are incontrovertible, Mr.Hart makes an inglorious exit, with a fling at the Board of Trade.One can afford to laugh at Mr.Hart\u2019s spleen.The stand taken by the Board of rade, however, merits, and will doubtless receive, the sanction of every person exposed to the extortions complained of, from the humblest tenant who pays the impost on his lease, to the proprietor who is mulcted on his purchase.Class legis lation of this sort will always rouse popular indignation, It benefits incapables, by degrading men of ability and reliability to the level\u2014in rewards\u2014of those who have neither qualification.In the business of à notary, as in other business, the man of merit has everything to gain, by untrammelled competition, and not the least of his gains would be the restraint that corupetitign would impose on the conduct of such as oppress those who labour, by the exaction of fees, that are calculated to arouse the indignation of every one, who holds at its true value the name of an honest man.ANT1-MONOPOLIST.Montreal, February 21, 1883.ee pree Errs\u2019s CoCOA\u2014GRATEFUL AND COMFORTING.-\u2014* By athorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected Cocoa, Mr.Epps has provided our breakfastjtables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctors\u2019 bills.It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease.Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready io attack { wherever there is a weak point.We may | escape many a fatal shatt by keeping ourselves well fortitied with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.\u201d\u2014Civil Service Gazette \u2014 Made simply with boiling water or milk.Sold enly in Packets an Tins (31b.and 1b.) by grocers, labelled\u2014 \u201cJauus Eres & Co., Homoeopathic Che mists, London, Eng.\u201d\u2014Also makers of Eppss Chocolate Essence FOR THE nidneys, Liver and Urinary (rgans, The Best Blood Purifier.There is only one way by which any disease ean be cured, and that is by ree moving the canse\u2014whatever it may be.The great mediexl authorities of the day declare that nearly every disease is caused by deranged kidneys or liver.To restore these therefore is the only way by which health can be secured.Here is where WARNER'S SAFE CURE has achieved its great reputation.It acts directly upon the kidneys and liver and by placing them ina healthy cons dition drives disease and pain from the system.For all Kidneys, Liver and Trinary troubles;

49 of the Central Block to-day.Among those present were Major-General Luard, commanding the Militia, President ; Col.Powell, Ad- jutant-General, | Vice-President ; Lieut.- Cols.Moutizambert and Cotton, Commandant Royal Schools of Gunnery ; Lient.-Col.Macpherson, Director of Stores ; Lieut.-Col.Maunsell, D.A.G., Brigade Major Ottawa district; Lieut.-Cols.Straubenzie, Worseley, A.H.Macdonald, A.A, Stevenson, Oswald; Majors Holbech, H.Smith, Jones, R.A.Atkinson, Walker, R.E.; Captains Laurie, Trotter.Hood, Nicoll, Stewart, Forbes, Turnbull and Cole; Lieuts.Arnton, Stevenson, Davidaon, Lewin, Lane, Brish and Blip.Among others present werc Colonel and Mr.Speaker Kirkpatrick, and Mr.Ives, The annual report of the officers was read, and adopted, also the report of Lieut.Doraldson, of Kingston, the Secretary.His Excellency the Governor- General visited the meeting and took the chair, He said he was glad to Le present again on such an occasion, to show his grateful appreciation of the good work one by the Artillery Association of Canada.He always held that they were of equal value with any other association in the country, although they were not as quiet.He was very glad to show his high appreciation of the Artillery Association by contributing to the list of prizes.He hoped that they would this year accept the prizes which he had the pleasure of offering last year.And if it was in the power of the Government to send a team to Shoeburyness, so ably represented by\u2019 the Dominion during the last two or three years, he would be most happy to give his assistance toward gaining the desired end.(Applause).;aHe congratulated them on the acquisition of the four ten-pounder Armstrong guns, which make of guns are generally used in England in the volunteer competitions.He was sorry they could not get more, but they were to be cougratulated on the four which they had and the easy terms on which they were procured.His Excellency asked the members of the Association to join him in a vote of condolence with the family of Major Hebert.Upon the outhreak of the Egyptian war Major Hebert was the first to offer himself for service.His Excellency knew that all such applications had Deen previously refused in England, and that it was not at all likely the application from Canada would be entertained.But Major Hebert pressed his application with great persistence, and as he was the first to offer his services, His Ex-: cellency finally yielded and was pleaseil to recommend him for service in the field with such results that he was attached to the artillery in Egypt.Many of those now present no doubt recollected the fond hopes of Major Hebert when he left Quebec and they would feel with him that his death, met in the path of duty and honor, was as meritorious as if he had fallen on the ramparts of Tel-el- Kebir.It afforded His Excellency the melancholy pleasure of expressing the deep regret at the loss they had sustained in the loss of Major Hebert of B Battery, who was one of their members, The Association also desired to place on record this expression of their greatest sympathy with the family of the deceased officer at the loss sustained mot only by then, but also by the country which he so gallantly served.Col.Irwin, Inspector of Artillery, in seconding the motion reminded the Association of the terms of the general order issued on Dec.1,1882, in regard tothe death of Major Hebert.The motion was unanimously carried.Colonels Irwin and Montizambert moved expressions of regret at the retirement of Major-General Strange from the force, and as President of the Council Lieut.-Col.Macdonald, of Guelph, on behalf of the artillery officers of his district, said that they would feel the great loss of General Strange\u2019s retirement.Colonel Stevenson, of Montreal, also spoke for the entire artillery force, expressing the regret he felt.General Strange thanked them for the very strong testimonial offered him and said he had tried in every instance to do his duty.He referred to the great assistance rendered him by Colonel Oswald, who had come forward with pecuniary aid when it was most needed, also their Secretary, Lieutenant Donaldsen, of Kingston.The motion of thanks was unanimously car- vied.À letter of regret at not being able to attend the meeting was read from Hon.Mr.Caron.A resolution of thanks Was tendered to His Excellency for prizes he had offered for competition last year, and which he offered again this year.Some slight changes in the constitution were ther.made and the meeting ad-

asserted that it was held in direct opposition to the protest of the Grand Lodge.It was merely a joint stock enterprise, in which the fraternity had no interest.Washington's Birthday.The reason assigned for the American residents here not celebrating Washington\u2019s birthday as usual, is because most of them have had serious afflictions in their families during the past year.Stocks.The market this morning was depressed, owing to more rumours of failures, and in sympathy with the Montreal market.The City and the Street Railway.The Toronto Street Railway Company has entered an action against the city, claiming the value of 553 toise of broken cobble stone, $7,000.Lotteries (0 be Stopped.The Crown Attorney of the County of York having heard that a lottery scheme is being worked up

meeting of the English Loan directorate was held on Tuesday afternoon, chiefly to consider the question of the solicitorship.À.certain section of the Board are desirous that Mr.W.R.Meredith, the present solicitor, should resign, in order that Mr.J.F.Hellmuth should be appointed to the position.This, Mr.Meredith, in view of the strong monetary vote passed at the last meeting of shareholders approving his appoinément, declines to do.The singular feature is that the same board which appointed Mr.Meredith is requesting his résignation.It is stated the tem per cent.call to be made is delayed

Legislature will be asked to make suitable provision for the Dominion Exhibition to be held in St.John, this fall.À measure regarding the question of amending the constitution of the Province, and vesting legislation in one legislative chamber, subject to the rights of the Crown and such provisions as may be in the interests of the people, will be submitted during the session.The first test between the Government and the Opposition in the House of Assembly came on the selection of Speaker.Mr.J.E.Lynott was the Government candidate, and Dr.Vail, of Kings, the Opposition\u2019s choice; Lynott was elected by 21 to 17.Every member was present but one, and the candidates did not vote.The address in reply to the Speech was moved by Flewelling, of Kings, seconded by Tibbitts, of Victoria, and it was made the order of the day for Saturday.Hon.Daniel Hanington, father of the Premier, was elected President of the Legislative Council, vice Seely deceased.An interesting question arisen in the.Legislative Council.Hon.Wm.M.Kelly, a few years ago, removed from this Province to Toronto.He continued to hold his seat and attended tlie sessions regularly.Last year the Government declared his seat vacant, on the ground that he had removed from the Province and appointed Allan A.Davidson, who had supported them in the Assembly to the vacancy.Mr.Kelly has arrived here and denies the right of the Government to act as they did and claims his seat.In the house of Assembly this afternoon the bill giving the Government the sole power of appointing sheriffs passed iis second reading, after a lengthy debate, the vote being 22 against, 15 for.\u2014 _\u2014_ HALIFAX.Fire Insurance Rates Incroased.HauIFAX, February 22.\u2014Within the ast few weeks the rates of fire insurance in Halifax have materially increased, in some instances more than doubled, and in others intimation has been given that the policies would not be renewed.It is said that the gentleman who was recently in the city, representing the head offices of fire insurance companies, reported somewhat unfavourably of the facilities for extinguishing fires in cases of emergency; such as have occurred in other cities.\u2014John Dunn, the English ruler of a rtion of Zululand, has written a letter to ord Derby, Foreign Secretary, protesting arainst the recent settlement of the affairs of that country.\u2014Miss Kate Kane, of Milwaukee, appeared as attorney for the defendant in the recent murder trial in that city, aud conducted her case very creditably.Her client was a coloured man, and had fatally wounded another coloured man in an altercation.He was convicted of manslaughter in the second degree, which is equivalent to deciding that he acted in self- defence.~TIt is understood in Washington that Mr.Chandler wrote to Commander Corringe, on furlough, asking if he intended to form a connection with foreign interests.Commander Corringe resented some expression by the Secretary, a correspondence followed and he was ordered to Washington.Yesterday he resigned from the navy.He will take charge of the ship yards bought by English capitalists.\u2014Henry C.Robinson, of Hartford, Conn., told in a recent lecture of a visit that he made to one of the smaller factories in Connecticut, whose owner boasted that in the year preceding Le had ° \u201c made\u201d $72,000.oing through the factory, when he got away under the roof he found bobbins tended by children\u2014boys of from eight to twelve years.Their faces were colourless.The man who * made\u201d $72,000 told Mr.Robinson that those little Loyswere earning fifteen cents a day, and twenty minutes\u2019 rest at noon.FROM THE OLD WORLD.Jules Ferry Proclaims the Policy of The New French Cabinet, THE SITUATION IN

Deputies this afternoon M.Ferry explained the programme of the Ministry and solicited the confi- Jdence of the country.The Government\u2019s first care would be to satisfy the wish of the Chamber by applying the law of 1834, under which the Princes would be deprived of their military posts.The Government thought that nothing more was necessary for the present.The Republic was not endangered, and in the event of conspiracy would have ample powers to protect itself by the rights inherent in all Governments.Without infringing upon the essential liberties of the people the Government demanded that measures be taken agaiust the utterances of seditious cries and agaust the authors of seditious placards.Irritating questions and fruitless discussions must be set aside, leaving to the Government the initiative which belongs to it, as a right.Reforms were required in the magistracy.A military bill and an habitual criminal bill would be introduced: The budget for 1884 would shortly be presented.The Government proposed to facilitate the execution of public works and te introduce measures ooking to the organization of a protectorate in Tunis and the reduction in the expenses of its occupation.The foreign policy of the Government would be peaceful, but not necessarily one of inaction.Whenever our interests and honor are engaged, we must maintain France in the rank to which she is entitled.It is essential to give Europe the spectacle of a Government sure of its future, and better armed against factions of administration, strong and respected, of a parliamentary republic resting upon the French virtues of good sense, labor, and love of progress.Paris, February 22.\u2014Prax, a Paris Bonapartist, commented on the silence of the Government regarding the revision of the constitution, and gave notice of a motion therefore.The report of the commission concerning Ardrieux\u2019s proposal for revision was presented.A motion to adjourn for à month the debate on the Ministry\u2019s programme was lost by 320 to 170 and its discussion was fixed for Saturday.GERMANY.Hamburgh and the Zollverein.HAMBURGH, February 22.\u2014The House of Burgesses has adopted a compromise scheme to incorporate Hamburgh with the Zollverein or \u201cCustoms Union,\u201d which has for its purpose the establishing a uniform rate of customs.The Senate is likely to accept the compromise.American Pork.BERLIN, February 22.+The law against American hog products goes into effect one month after it is published.Special rules will be made for supplying ships.The Clericals in Germany.The Landtag discussed the estimates of the Ministry of Worship.Windhorst, leader of the Clerical, said the Government was blameable for the conflict with the Vatican, asit had not been earnest in its negotiations.The Government is not desirous of peace with the Vatican though the Emperor favours it.Schorlemer affirmed that the State Roman curia in order to terminate the expatriation of Catholic communities, which promoted demoralization and prepared the way for the triumph of Socialism.The Minister of Public Instruction said that he would place no difficulty in the way of religious schools, but desired to prevent the exercise of a certain special influence over the schools.The Government had almost entirely removed the sequestration of the incomes of the clergy, and pardoned Bishop Melchers.This statement caused general surprise.RoME, February 22.\u2014A despatch says that Jacobini\u2019s last note decla Prussia must consent, through the revision of the May laws, or she will deprive the Catholic Church in Germany of the very conditions of existence.Marshal Bazaine\u2019s Defence.Maprip, Feb.22\u2014Marshal Bazaine\u2019s book is entitled \u201cEpisodes of the War of 1870, and the Siege of Metz.\u201d It is dedicated to Ex-Queen Isabella of Spain.Among the documents in the work are Bazaine\u2019s autograph report to the Emperor Napoleon, while the latter was at Wilhelmshohe, and the letter from the Marshal to the Empress Eugenie en September 14, 1870, advising her to take a horse and assume the command of the Metz division.The Marshal considers the defensive qualities of Alsace and Lorraine were not utilized to the fullest extent.He asserts that the disorganization of the War Department at the beginning of the war rendered it impossible to obtain useful information or instructions from head quarters.He declares he never saw a mitrailleuse until that weapon was brough* into Metz.ITALY.Washington\u2019s Birthdaythat they worked ten hours a day, with |

Respond.A CHANNEL TUNNEL COMMITTEE.LoNDoN, February 22.\u2014In the House of Commons Mr.(Chamberlain said the Jovernment would move the appointment of a Committee of both Houses to inquire into the expediency of the construction of the Channel tunnel, Mr.Trevelyan stated that a short-hand writer was present at the examination of witnesses at Dublin Castle.Witnesses were not threatened, nor were they proffered drink.The debate on Mr.Gorst\u2019s amendment was resumed.Mr.*J.Lowther promised Conservative support to a vigorous policy toward Ireland.Mr.Forster said that but for the Phœuix Park murders Ireland would have believed Parnell to be supreme, and would have become ungovernable.The recent disclosures increased the suspicion that the Land League was connected with the outrages.The public expected that Parnell would have elucidated this point.No mere disclaimer would be sufficient.He charged Parnell with heading an organization which started the agitation that promoted outrages and incited murder.Parnell reaped the advantages of the agitation.He did not plan the outrages but connived at their commission.O\u2019Kelly shouted \u201cIt\u2019s a lie,\u201d several times.He was suspended by a vote of 305 to 20.Mr.Forster reiterated the charges against Parnell, quoting from his s eeches that murder was unnecessary.e said the wretches who committed the Phenix Park assassinations had not acted on the letter but the spirit of these speeches.Until Parnell expressed his regret and repentance he could not communicate with him.A feeling was now rising, even in Ireland, against the agitation.Parnell and his friends had been unveiled and unmasked.There were loud cries for Parnell, but he did not move.Mr.O'Donnell attempting to interpose was ruled out of order.Mr.Parnell moved the adjournment of the debate, which was agreed to.Loxpon, Feb, 23.\u2014The Standard says that no speech in recent years has produced such interest and excitement as

Car's Statements, P.J.SHERIDAN INTERVIEWED.He will not go te Britain as \u201c He Thieks he would Hang.\u201d CAREY'S WIFE COMPLETELY BOYCOTTED.Opinions of the Fenians and Land Leaguers.THE ENGLISH PUBLIC MUCH EXCITED.English Opinien.LoxnoN, February 22.\u2014 There has arisen from this country an exulting shout of satisfaction that the noose is already round the necks of the Phonix Park assassins, tempered only by the regret that Carey should have slipped his neck out just in time.The startling revelations of Dublin Court House form the sole topic of conversation inghouse, club, street and wherever men cet and talk.The newspapers print column upon column, editorial upon editorial.All classes of society are profoundly moved and excited and eagerly await further developments and the news of the success of the detectives, who doubtless are tracking the other members of the conspiracy, Amid the general satisfaction there exists also strong party feeling.The Con- + servatives are seizing a grand opportunity\u2019 to taunt the Government with the Kilmainham compact.The St.James Gazette has a bitter party article, and thinks that though the Government have had to endure many humiliations in Ireland none can distress them more than the necessity of pardoning a villain like James Carey for the sake of his information.\u201cIt seeins most deplorable that they could not contrive to keep the rope round the wretch\u2019s neck, than whom no man in the dock is more guilty, dangerous and detestable, but there is consolation in the thought that his death would not create such terror in the assassination club as his treachery, and that no Invincible brother will ever trust another in matters of murder till the memory of this infamous creature has grown dim.\u201d The Land League.The St.James\u2019 goes on to speak of the implication of the Land Leaguers with the assassins.© Above all,\u201d it says, \u201c we find associated with them that Mr.Sheridan whose influence with the Moonlighters in going through the country and stopping outrages was the price paid by Mr, Parnell and his friends to the Government for their release from Kilmainham in the bargain known as the \u2018Kilmainham compact.\u201d It is all very well to say that Mr.Parnell and his party now lie under a fearful responsibility, because it is true to say it.But what of the other party, which, at the very time when the murder of Mr.Forster, Earl Cowper and Mr.Burke was already planned, scourged the ears of all true Liberals with the cry fer making a clean sweep of the Castle.And what of the leaders of the party who, well knowing as they did from Mr.Forster, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and a member of the Cabinet, what they were about, trafficked with Mr.Parncll to buy off for a time, not to destroy, the murder policy which Carey\u2019s evidence really ade no clearer than it was before.\u201d London the Centre of the Comspiracy.The Pall Mall Gazette, referring to Mr.Sheridan, says he appears to lave been the confidential emissary of the Central Murder League which supplied funds and promised arms for the assassinations, but it is almost as difficult to believe that Mr.Parnell, who proffered the assistance of Sheridan, knew anything more than Sir W.Harcourt, who accepted it, of his real relations with the assassins.\u201cThe originators of the conspiracies are still at large.The central nest of the assassins is not Dublin, but London.The Walsh who went to Ireland to found the Murder League was commissioned by a direcfor- ate of assassins whose Vehmgericht was set up in this city.Walsh himself seems to come from the North of England.The funds and weapons were supplied from London.Here is where the final blow must be struck at the organization of assassination.Walsh is mot yet arrested.The mysterious ¢ Number One\u2019 has hitherto escaped the vigilance of the police.No satisfaction at the success of the Irish executive in hunting down the assassins in Dublin should lead to a momént\u2019s relaxation of exertions to discover and punish the assassins whose headquarters may be within ag stone\u2019s throw of Scotland Yard.\u201d \u2018The Fenian Opinion.NEw York, February 22.\u2014The Irish Nation, John Devoy\u2019s paper, has received the following: \u2014 \u2019 Loxpoy, February 22.\u2014The murder trials at Dublin are still the all-absorbing topic of the hour, and the interest is deepened by the revelations of Carey, the self-confessed murderer, who, to save lis life, turned informer.The acceptance of his testimony on condition of giving him his life is the crowning disgrace for the Government and reveals utter rottenness, The English system in Ireland is known.There was a sharp struggle at the Castle before it was finally decided to bring him forward as a witness.Three different meetings of the Privy Council at Dublin were held, at which the question was discussed.The reward expected by the Government for this infamy was the implication of the Land League leaders, and the evidence is carefully directed to that end.The Tory speeches in the House of Commons are singularly bitter in tone, and party feeling is running high.The Irish party is thus enabled to maintain an attitude of reserve.Many attempts have been nade to draw Parnell into an expression of opinion about the Dublin trials and a speech of apology.The Irish leader having to concess or conceal maintains a dignified restraint.Carey\u2019s statement that the murder was suggested by an article in the Freemmn is due to old and bitter hatred to Mr.Gray, who opposed several swindling schemes which the informer had concocted against the Dublin corporation.Shortly before the trial it is known that Carey uttered threats of murder against Mr.Gray, and Lie now secks to wreak vengeance on him by establishing a connection between the attempts at murder and the Freeman's crNicism on the Irish administration.| !

think it necessary to guard the judges and Government officals, and have given orders that the special police detailed for this service shall be withdrawn.This is thought to be a proof that the Government has a strong hand on the Assassination League.A private examination was held yesterday in the case of Joseph Smith, arrested for complicity in the assassination conspiracy.His statements agreed with those made by the informer Carey.Cork, February 22.\u2014John O\u2019Brien, member of the Corporation, and ex-sus- pects Hoduett and Gilhooley, whose sentence¢ to imprisonment for using

Hackett, an employee of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, who resigned from the Dublin Metropolitan.Police in 1881 rather than obey orders to fire on the people, makes public a long statement regarding the informer Carey, with whom he was on very intimate terms.» Hackett says that lie was at Carey\u2019s house on the night of the murder of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr.Burke.Carey\u2019s wife was flushed and excited, and was cvident- ly trying to conceal something.She endeavoured to hide some weapons under her cloak.Carey was in the house, but would not present himself.Subsequently he expressed gratification at the murder.Hackett says he has good reason to believe that Carey planned the murder and was the chief conspirator ; that his wife was within easy distance at the time of the tragedy, and that she carried away the bloody weapons and concealed them, , ¢ Number One.\" The authorities have received valuable information concerning \u201c Number One \u201d and are quite positive as to his identity.Mrs.Carey has been completely \u201cboycotted,\u201d\u201d since he turned informer.Not à tenant has paid rent and notices are chalked on\u2019 the doors of her property warning persons not to pay rent to the ¢¢ cursed informer.\u201d Fitzpatrick, arrested for complicity in the murder of Cavendish and Burke, and who, it was stated, acted as watcher, has been discharged.Byrve\u2019s Denials.PARIS, February 22 \u2014Frank Byrne says:\u2014\u201c Carey\u201ds evidence concerning myself and wife is absolutely untrue.I was never a member of a secret Irish organization.I deny that the Land League and\u2019 the \u201cInvincibles\u201d were ever connected, directly or indirectly.I believe Carey\u2019s evidence was concocted for the purpose of implicating the Land League in the Phoenix Park murders.\u201d It is understood that Byrne proceeds to London this evening.Sheridan Afraid of the Rope.New York, February 22.\u2014P.J.Sheridan sayt that he never met Carey in his life.His reference to the interview in Angel Hotel, Dublin, and the promise to forward arms are fabricated.Sheridan admits travelling through Ireland disguised as a priest, but it was for the purpose of recovering property taken from him during his exile aud to uphold the \u201c No Rent\u201d manifesto.He denies any complicity in the Phenix Park assassination but proposes to remain in New York, as he thinks that if the British Government got hold of him he would hang.NEW WORLD NEWS, THE SINGING CONVICT REVOLT Funeral of the Victims of the School Panic.WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY

SING, February 22\u20141t is stated that Superintendent Baker told the Warden that the Governor urged upon him the necessity of using most vigorous measures to restore and maintain discipline.The revolt must be suppressed at all hazards, Lt is said the plan agreed upon is to give the Twelve little \u2014 convicts a chance to-day to recons their determination not o work, an they still hold out to remove as many of them, as the old place will accommodate to the old female prison, and there confine them in bare cells without beddine upon half a pound of bread and a cup of water a day.Certain long-term men and those who lost their commutation are for carrying the revolt through to a des perate end and the short-term men are opposed to the plan.Yesterday there were fourteen fights between .Tepresentatives of the two classes.Severs] non-revolting conviets were severely injured.Three were carried to the hospi tal.Keeper Thies received ugly cuts on the head yesterday, but the manner in which he got them could not be ascertained.He was taken to the hospital too weak to stand.Warden Brush 1s confi dent he can cope with any ordinary ous.break.In the arsenal there are fifty new
