the couroupay is also very hard and rich in tannin.The quebracho is, however, more interesting than any, and grows abundantly in the forests of La Plata and Brazil.It resembles oak in the trunk, and is used for railway sleepers\u201d telegraph poles, piles and so on.It is heavier than water, its specific gravity varying between 1.203 and 1.333.The color at first 18 reddish, like mahogany, but grows darker with time.Being rich in tannin, it is employed for tanning leather in Brazil, and has recently been intro duced for that purpose into France.A mixture of one-third of powdered quebracho and two-thirds of ordinary tan gives good results.\u2014The Boston Shoe and Leather Reporter says:\u2014The boot and shoe anarket shows no change.Jobbers are steadily placing orders, The season, however, is well advanced, and the bulk of contracts are in manufacturers hands.The shipments for the week ended, June 21, have been 45,071 cases, against 38,415 cases for the previous week\u2014an increase of 6,656 cases.Since January 1 there have been forwarded 1,130,180 cases, against 1,046, 396 cases for the same time last year\u2014an increase of 83,784 cases.\u2014The French woman [as seen by the London World] wears a petticoat which measures two yards round.It is-generally made either in black or white; if the former, a white lace flounce is sewn inside.Seven steels are placed in the front, beginning from the edge upward.At the back the steels are carried to the top.The dress worn with this should measure three yards round.If these details are not observed the petticoat degenerates into a mon strosity.\u2014The last cattle shipment to England from New Brunswick, about a fortnight ago, was of 250 head, shipped by Messrs.Josiah Wood, W.F.George, and H.Humphrey, of Sackville, who have sent forward 600 head, which cost the shippers 43c to 5c per lb, live weight.We hear that prices are good in England, according to latest advices.\u2014 The appeal of Bontoux and Feder, officers of the Union Generale, against their sentences of two years\u2019 imprisonment has been rejected.\u2014The Flint Glass Workers Association, of Pittsburg, on Saturday decided not to work for six weeks after the last of this month.\u2014It is stated that the work on the construction of the new railway lineat St, Anne, P.Q., will be commenced this week \u2014The receiver for the McGeoch, Everingham & Co., Chicago, declares the liabil ities of the firm will exceed $5,000,000.\u2014The grain elevator of Bassett, Hunt ing & Co., at McGregor, Iowa, was burned on Saturday morning.Loss, $750,000.\u2014The French Senate has passed a bill roviding for direct postal service between Havre and New York.\u2014The bill to incorporate the Cape Cod Ship Canal Company has passed the Massachusetts Legislature.\u2014Mr.Emerson, late chief clerk at Emerson, has been appointed agent of the C.P.Rat Port Arthur.\u2014The Longueuil Cotton Manufacturing and Bleaching Company apply for letters patent.MONTREAL, MONDAY, JUNE 25, 1883.PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.MONTREAL, June 23.Frour\u2014This has been a quiet day in flour that differs in no essential way from 1t8 intermediate predecessors so far as regards the bulk of the supply.It must be added, however, that there is a fair enquiry for superior extra which at present receives all the attention of buyers.A lot of 1,000 barrels of a city brand sold at $5.67}.A car load of spring extra was reported sold at $4.65.On \u2019Change there was an inquiry for a 1,000 barrels lot of superior at $5 which was not filled at the close.The stock of flour to-day 18 71,955 barrels, a decrease of 4,129 during the week, and of 6,788 barrels ccmpared with the same date last year.Former quotations are repeated as follows :\u2014 Superior Extra, per brl.$e 00 Extra Superfine.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.£7730 4.82% FaAnGY.\u2026.0 user sens senc acer ans 0.00 @ 0.00 Spring Extra.cree 485 @ 470 Superfine.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.ssrncoraur 4.25 @ 4.35 Strong Bakers\u2019 (Canadian).5.15 @ 5.25 Strong Bakers\u2019 (American).6.25 @ 6.75 Fine .Ce eiiereerienas 3.80 @ 39 Middlings .3.55 @ 3.70 Pollards8 .\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.0s00cas sonercee 3.25 @ 340 Ontario bags, (medium).2.40 @ 2.50 \u201c \u201c (spring extra).2.30 @ 235 \u201c « (superfine).2235 @ 230 City bags (delivered).\u2026\u2026 80 @ 310 GRrAIN\u2014On the local grain market there is much the same general feeling of stupid dullness apparent, along with considerable uncertainty as to the outlook, The most persistent effort to obtain information that \u201cnew\u201d coula be prefixed to results in failure, and the same old story is repeated in the same cast iron phrases.Quotations are adhered to as nominally unchanged: No.2 Canada red winter wheat, $1.15@1.16;

dressed fowls, five cents a lb; dressed ducks, six cents; dressed geese, six cents; dressed turkeys, seven cents.The Chinese are the preatest egg and chicken growers in the world.They can ship eggs to New York and make money by selling them at ten cents a dozen.Eggs are now being imported from France, Germany, Denmark, Italy and Turkey.No less than 2,400,000 European eggs have been received in New York from various cities in Europe during the past nine months.The imports for the whole year will exceed 3,000,000.The firm of John C.Mahr & Sons, New York, began receiving three years ago, and the consignments of it have steadily increased.Italy and Turkey are the two great egg producing countries.The eggs come packed in straw in long cases containing 150 dozen each.The only difference between imported eggs and those produced in this country was that the former was somewhat smaller and the shells perhaps a trifle harder.The eggs were consigned on commission, and ne market here fixed their price.They were sold at le to 2c less per dozen than domestic eggs.The lower price was On account of the size, and not because they were inferior 1n quality, for such was not the case.\u2014Chicago Drovers\u2019 Journal.THE HAY AND STRAW MARKKTS MONTREAL, June 23.\u2014The hay market is easy at the decline noted.Receipts are ample for all requirements.Choice sold at $10.50 @$11, and lower grades at $8/@ $10 per hundred bundles.§iraw was in fair request at $3/@$5 per hundred bundles.MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH TO THE MONTREAL HERALD.CANADIAN.TORONTO, June 23.GRAIN\u2014Wheat, Fall, No 1, $0.00 ;

the warm supporters of the Liberal party in the Province of Quebec, and in the name of the party of St.Johns and of the entire province he must congratulate the electors of St.Hyacinthe on the fact that their representative was the leader of the Opposition.So far the war had been a battle of giants, and he felicitated the people of St.Hyacinthe on the eloquence, the vigor and capacity of the gentleman whom they had sent to the House to represent and protect their interests.He remarked upon the lack of heart and lack of interest taken in public affairs by the Government of Mr.Mousseau, and

county of St.Hyacinthe,in meeting assembled, are pleased to greet your arrival in their midst, and to extend to you a most cordial welcome.Since you have been the representative of thi# electoral college we have scanned with watchful eye your we have approved of it, but it is especially since, in your quality of leader of the Liberal Left in the Parliament of Quebec, you have fought energy and ability against the present Provincial Government that we have felt flattered in having chosen you to stand up in defence of our interests, and to watch over those of the whole country We are here to-day to tell you piainly that we are proud of you and that we are honored in your per- conduct in the House, and with so much talent, in the halls of the Legislatureson, The career adopted by you throughout the on of the House has been admirable in every respect, and if our opinions can be of any avail with our compatriots we stand by you before the whole country and express in all its fullness our approbation of your conduct.You have hy governed the Province, or at least rations of the House, which tolerated a Parliamentary majority.We shall not enumerate what you have done.Your We will repeat that the patriotism and sagacity which employ so advantageously in you the solid .qualities of your brilliant eloquence have won last session and since the prorogat in real conducted the 0 achievements are known to all.forgou both general esteem and the hearty admiration of your constituents.We beg you, therefore, to accept our unani- meus congratulations, and to convey in our names to Mrs.Mercier, your worthy wife, the homage of our most profound respect.On behalf of the meeting, (Signed) MAURICE ST.JACQUES, Secretary After the cheering had subsided Hon.Mr Mercier rose and made the following reply, which was loudly applauded at intervals :\u2014 To R.E.Fontaine, Esq., Q.C., Chairman, ana ° ya- Maurice St.Jacques, KEsq., Secretar, the meeting of the citizens of Stcinthe :\u2014 GENTLEMEN,\u2014Accept on your own behalf e committee of citizens whom you represent, my sincere thanks for the kind words expressed inthe address just ad tome.In 1881 I decided to renounce the honor of representing the County of St.Hyacinthe in Legislative Assembly of Quebec, and to retire completely into private life.I needed rest, andsthe interests of my family called for as well as on that of t the this step.The Liberals of St.Hyacinthe were unwilling to grant me thie holiday, and I was obliged to remain in active contest, to the detriment of my health and of my personal interests.Allow me to tell you that this sympathetic demonstration which I owe to your good will compensates me for my fatigue,and consoles me fer my sorrows and vexations, the inseparable accompaniment of a public life.In the course of the last session the Fon.Mr.Joly, who had led the Left in the Legislative Assembly since 1867, felt himself compelled to hand in his resignation, and de- It was at his request

provincial read was under discussion, Mr.Chapleau band of the 85th Regiment, the the following telegram from member Jor St.Hyacinthe in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec, and Leader of the Opto direct the business of the House.It had been their duty to combat dishonesty and force of numbers, and the Opposition had succeeded beyond their expectations.Indeed,some Conservatives had found that there was even more than they coul swallow, and the handful of fifteen had stopped much evil, which, without their action, the government wonld have succeeded in perpetrating.He glanced at the different matters which the Opposition had fought against, criticised the Ministeral policy, and expressed his regret that very much which the Opposition had predicted had been more than realized.So closely indeed had the Opposition contentions been borne out that many Conservatives, who had bitterly criticised the tactics of the Opposition, had been compelled to admit that the opponents of the government were right and Mr.Chapleau wrong.To-day the general opinion of the public was that it was to its interests to be on its guard against those who were so seriously imperilling the public weal.He spoke of the confl- dence which honest Conservatives had in their leaders, and attributed to them and to their blind confidence much of the disaster which had been brought about.But now the public had been awakened and had revolted against the Government.The superb triuinph which had been achieved in Lavall \u2014the most Conservative county in the Province\u2014had shown that the ple were no longer to be governed by mere party dictation.He was satisfied that this movement would continue ; and if the Premier would only take the Jacques Carer writ out of his breeches\u2019 pocket, a 1nost magnificent victory would be scored over him.He attacked in strong terms the political morality and incapacity that had been displayed in Quebec, and was satisfied that the future welfare of the Province lay in the hands of the Liberals.He contended that the Liberals were the defenders of all the rights and constitutional privileges of the people of the Province, and stated that the iberal party would ever be prepared to defend provincial autonomy from Dominion interference.In conclusion he expressed the hope that the Liberals of St.Hyacinthe would implement their belief that the future of the country was in the hands of the Liberal arty.r The chairman then called upon Mr.G.W.Stephens, M.P.P., who spoke in French.He said :\u2014 The congratulations presented to your representative, the Chief of the Opposition, today, as a testimonial of your appreciation of his efforts on behalf of good government, have been fairly earned by him.Few are aware of the pluck and determination required to battle constantlysgainst an overpowering majority.The Chief of the Opposition has had an arduous duty to perform, and he has certainly thrown his whole soul and energy into the work.He deserves all the praise you have glvem him, and he deserves the support of every one who desires a return to honest government.For the past two sessions, at least, the provinee has not been governed by a party at all.It has been simply a band of speculators, whose common interest has been to promote, by legislative enactment, the speculations and intrigues of the brotherhood.They have been and are now utterly regard ess of the interests or we.fare of the province.\u201c Apres moi le deluge \u201d is their motto.They have increased the expenditures of the Province in every possibie direction.No matter who assumes the government, new ways of deriving a revenue must be sought out.This clique, which in reality governs our country and pulls the wires, does not care what color of politics prevailes so long as they can obtaln all that government has to give, and buy government railways at half price.Mr.Mousseau is onl a cat\u2019®s paw in the matter.After doing all the mischief, Mr.Chapleau has gone to Ottawa, and he found there this poor simpleton Mousseau, who apparently accepted the office of scapegoat.erhaps they will make him a judge after he has taken over all the: gins of his predecessor.Mr.Mousseau promised reforms without number, and rigid economy.His reforms are in the vast future.But we have a sample of his ideas of economy in the fact that the expenses of government are increased in one department alone to $37,000 per annum, and the province will have to face an annual deficit of $900,000.Mr.Chapleau sold our railway to his friend, Mr.Senccal, and assured us it was for the purpose of saving the province an expected expenditure of $1,140,000 to complete the railway, which we would not have to pay if we sold the railway.Since Mr.Chapleau made this speech we have spent on the North Shore railway at least $1,386,000, which, according to Mr.Chapleau, we were to save by selling the railway to his bosom friend.The sale of the railway was to reduce our debt by at least eight millions, but no sooner is the railway sold than we borrow 83,5:0,000.This is financiering with a ven- gance.If Mr.Mousseau and Mr.Wurtele could only be prevailed upon to take charge of the finances of the United States, and act under the advice of the Chapieau Senecal organization they would soon put a stop to the too rapid reduction of the national debt of the United States.At last honest Conservatives are waking up.The Laval election is the first sign of the times, and the day is not far distant when the country will, by a large majority, hurl into everlasting disgrace the men who have been stuffing their pockets at the public ex- pence.We, the Liberal delegation in Parliament, are too few in number to form a Government ; we are numerous enough and patriotic enough to assist every honest effort to restore good government.Certain it is that a change must be made, and that quickly, if the people desire honest government and economical reform.The time has now arrived when the predictions of the Liberal party in the Province of Quebec are, completely fulfilled.It it time every onest citizen should extend to us the support which our platform of economy and good overnment deserves [applause.] said : The Government does not scll a farm it | & eh ean.folicitated Mr.David upon is true, it is its railway that it sells: but

and the pay ment on our debt, and we do not want to de ceive either the House or the public; we owe it to our creditors not to run any further risk in estimating our resources.\u201cWe know that in

there that evening the interest he had taken in the leader of the Opposition.Mr.Mercier had come from St.Hyacinthe to Montreal, the modern Babylon, and still remains proof against all temptation, He Was the same as when he went away firm and honest in his pure and early convictions.He had fought for country and liberty, and particularly had he distinguished himself in his espousal of the cause of the De Lorimier family.He had thus shown himself worthy of thé esteem and support of the French Canadian patriots of St, Hyacinthe.He was here, moreover, because the people of St.Hyacinthe should be sympathised with in their consistent support of Liberal principles.and in their endorsation of the «| leader of the Local Opposition.He sym- - | pathized with the peop e of St.Hyacinthe, not only because of their support of leader of the Opposition, but because that gentleman had proven himself capable of leading the whole House.Besides Mr.Mercier had treat- - | ed Mr.Mousseau with a generosity seldom found among politiqui men, never having taken any unfair vantage, although the I opportunities to do so had frequently present~ »d themselves.Again he was glad to be present, because men like Mr.Mercier fought for public rights, as indeed the defender of the provincial cow, which all were so greviously maltreating.He concluded that not only had Mr.Mousseau been the inheritor of the crimes of Mr.Chapleau, but he had in himself committed most grievious offences, which he must himself expiate.It was Mr.Mousseau who, at the feet of Sir John Macdonald, had caused the dismissal of Mr.Letellier.He had humiliated the province, imperiled its autonomy, and no one could witness the straits in which he was now placed without satisfaction, He had brought the province to bankruptcy and

followed, after whom spoke Mr.Gaboury,M.P.P., and Mr.Mercier, M.P.P., each of whom spoke in earnest and eloquent terms of the straits into which Mr.Chapleau and Mr.Mousseau had brought the

day\u2019s The day was very warm and the dust rose in clouds on the drive eut from the city to Blue Bonnets.The attendance was very large, society and fashion being present in full force.The stylish four-in-hand coach was the theme of admiration, and so also was a fine drag driven by Messrs.McIntyre and A.B.Chaffee, Jr.The course was in capital condition, perhaps a little hard, but the nags prefer that to mud.Of the several events only the last one could becalled a fizzle.In this, the hurdle race, two came to the scratch.The tavorites, asa rule, did ail that was expected of them by their backers, and what the \u201cStables\u2019\u201d won on Thursday was taken from it on Saturday.About three o\u2019clock the first race was called and the horses were saddled in the paddock.There were six entries, but Birdcatcher and Moonlight were scratched, and only the following showed up for ladies purse, $150; $125 to first horse, $25 to second.For horses that have never won public

to the front, with Williams and the Marquis at her girth.On the home stretch the running was so close that whips were freely applied on Williams and the Marquis, but Chipola held her own and won by a

were withdrawn, and the whole interest centered in the merits of two stables, Dawes\u2019 and Coghlin\u2019s, both entlemen having a pair entered.The bet- ie was about even.The following came to the flags :\u2014 B.J.Coghlin\u2019s b f Easter, 4 yrs., by Vicksburg, 127 1bs.B.J.Coghlin\u2019s bg Tullamore, 8 yrs., by Stockwood, 115 1bs.J.P.Dawes\u2019 ¢c h Kincaid, 6 yrs., by Waverly, 4 1bs.J.Fr Dawes\u2019 b f Chipola, 4yrs., by Saxon, 115 bs.A great deal of time was lost through the stubborness of Chipola to come up, and at last her stable mate had to go and coax her up, and the field were sent off with a flying start, Kincald and Easter going at once to the front, with Tullamore and Chipola close up.This position was kept for a mile, the pairs keeping well together, but Tullamore who had the lightest weight and was counte the dark horse to win, sent up his tail and was out of it.Chipola made a game effort to gamely, aud never could reach Kincaid, who came in a good winner about

use, Roddey\u2019s colored Jock had his horse well in hand and sent him along for all he was worth, as the colt Keewatin was in good humor and pushing close up for the lead, The exciternent was very great, as the three leaders entered on the home stretch, Roddey was only a short length ahead, and Kecewatin and D'Arcy werc at it for first lace.The whip was applied to D\u2019Arcy to Reon her going.Keewatin was not touched ; if he had been it is Just possible in the last 100 ards he would have come in a dead heat with Roddey.As it was, Roddey got in by a short length.Keewatin and D'Arcy were s0 close that it was not known for & time who had gained second place, but the numbers were soon run up, and then a cheer went up for Keewatin who had so gamely won his place.The jockey of D\u2019Arcy (Wise), on seeing this, became excited, and rushing improper language, for which Lt.Col.Campbell at once very justly and properly ruled him off for ever riding on the Fashion Course.Torento horsemen, and, after explanations, Wise was told to go and apologise for his misconduct, which he did.Lt.Col.Campbell read him a sound lecture, and, at the solicitations ofgthe stewards and gentlemen present, rescinded hisorder ruling Wise off the course.This was a very generous and kindly act, and it is to be hoped Wise and all other jockies will learn to be better mannered.For the

Orkney were the only two who faced the starter.The former stood favorite.À good start was made and the first two jumps passed, when in some unaccountable manner, Orkney\u2019s jock was thrown receiving a bad gash over the right eye and getting his right arm badly straimed.Orkney at once boited into the field, but was caught after a few seconds and mounted by Mr.R.Pennistoun, who pluckily gave chase to Charlemagne, who by this time was on the curve coming home with ease.The race was a fizzle and who's to blame it is hard to find out.Mr.Dawes would have run Rose, but she met with a slight injury the previous day; but where were Annette, Rienzi and Echo?The last event was the consolation race, handicap, $150; $90 to first horse, $40 to second and $20 to third.For horses that have run at this meeting and not won first or second money.Distance, 1 mile.Entrance, $5; which was won by Tullamore.This closed the summer meeting, and the managers are to be congratulated upon its great success.Mr.Duncan Robertson, the secretary of the tlub, did his work well, and we anticipate for the fall meeting equally as good sport.Pointe Claire Boating Club.The annual ball of the club came off, as we previously noticed,on Friday night and was a most successful affair.This popular summer resort and the hops given by the boating club during the season always call out a large attendance of the haut ton, and on Friday nightthe Club house was crowded with as merry a gathering as we have ever witnessed.The fair sex, one and all, looked most charming, and in their costly and becoming toilets did honor to their country.We hear a good deal said and have read a good deal of good- natured criticism in American papers en the poor taste displayed in dress by our Canadian young ladies, but we _ imagine that even the belles of Newrt, Long Branch and Saratoga would bave found it ditficult to surpass those who were present at Pointe Claire on Friday night last.Every lady was the picture of health, and the bright eyes and ringing laughter testified to their good nature and enjoyment.The night was a beautiful one, a nice cool, refreshing breeze came gently over the lake, just rippling the water, which shone like silver under the rays of the moon.The dancing room was the club house, right square on the point, and its decorations were in good taste.The interior was festooned with flags and with devices of aquatic sports.In the centre hung the original mode of water conveyance, à birch-bark canoe.The inside and outside were lighted with lamps and Chinese lanterns, the whole scene, viewed trom a short distance away on the water, having a fine effect.The supper, which was a capital one, was laid in a marquee adjoining the Club house, and here some interesting speeches were made during supper.Dancing was kept up with great spirit from nine o\u2019clock to two, and everybody went in with a will to have all the enjoyment possible.The committee looked after the strangers and vied with each other in making everyone at home.Gruenwald\u2019s orchestra never played better.At supper Dr.Roddick, in most complimentary terms, thanked those from a distance for their attendance, and coupled | with it the names of Messrs.T.Davidson there were no less than six entries, yet only] and J.P.Dawes, of Lachine, who were present with a large party in Mr.Dawes\u2019 acht.Mr.Davidson, in his usual happy aud umorous style, returned thanks and admitted that Pointe Claire was at the head of aquatic affairs.Lachine hud goue back instead of forward, and so had st.Ann\u2019s, but Pointe

health of the President of the Pointe Claire Boating Club, Mr.Tooke, which was enthusiastically honored, and that gentleman in a few brief words thank those present for the honor done him.The Lachine and Montreal parties left at half one o'clock for their destination, all well pleased with their trip and loud in praise of the Pointe Claire Club.We believe it is the intention of the club to give their usual fortnightly hops during the season.The Rifle.THE VICTORIA RIFLE ASSOCIATION held the third of its weekly series of matches at the Point St.Charles ranges on Saturday, the following being

highly : TEEMER WINS THE CONSOLATION; HANLAN AND LEE THE DOUBLE SCULL.PULLMAN, Ill., June 23.\u2014The sculling regatta on Lake Calumet this afternoon devel oped a suprise and prodigy in the person of young Teemer, a Wickeesport oarsman, who won a place in the final struggle yesterday, but who failed to keep with either Hanlan, Hosmer or Hamm,owing,as it is now claimed, his inexperience in rowing in rough water.To-day in the consolation race, open to all but the three leaders of the day preceding, he covered three miles in 20.14, thus lowering Courtney\u2019s best record of 20.143, and upon whieh hls reputation had been built.The sk was overcast, and the Lake was placid.5,000 people were on the grounds.Seven men were ready when the word was given at 4.07 and went off together, having been placed as follows: \u2014 McKay, Lee, Gaudaur, Elliott, Parker, Riley, Teemer and Plaisted.Gaudaur showed to the front early with Riley second, Elliott third ; the latter pulling a stroke of thirty-six to the minute.At the half-mile buoy, Riley and Gaudaur were abreast, both leading Teemer and Lec a length, Teemer then drew up and passed Elliott, who dropped out of the race.Lee then forged ahead and turned the mile and a haif buoy first in 9.15, Gaudaur second, with Teemer, Riley, McKay and Plaisted in the order named.At 1j mile buoy Lee makes a claim that Gaudaur fouled him, and from that on his chance for first place was gone.Gaudaur pushed ahead, and passed the two mile buoy in 14.3, leading Lee one half length, McKay in close proximity with Teemer on his quarter, Parker and Plaisted well in the rear.Lee stopped rowing soon after passing the two mile buoy.Teemer all this while was rowing in fine form, and passing McKay pulled for Gaudaur with a stroke\u201d of 32 to the minute.At 2 mile buoy Teemer went to the front and held it to the finish, Gaudaur coming in second,two seconds later in time.with McKay, Riley, Parker and Plaisted following in the order named, McKay and Riley being well up to the leaders.Time was kept by official timekeepers, and this was found to tally with four stop-watches held on the judge\u2019s boat.The double seull race came off with entries in the order given :\u2014sanlan and Lee, Plaisted and Parker, Hosmer and McKay, Gaudaur and Kennedy, Weisgerber and Clayton.Hanlan and Lee led off at 40 strokes, and were pushed for one mile by Hosmer and McKay, Weisgerber and Clayton keeping well up, Plaisted and Parker dropping back.Hanlan and Lee passed the mile and a half buoy in 8 min.42 sec., McKay and Hosmer second, Gaudier and Kennedy third, Weisgerber and Clayton fourth, and Plaisted and Parker fifth.After starting for home Hanlan and Lee increased their lead materially and before passing the two-mile buoy ceased rowing for fully ten seconds.They -tarted again, leading by six lengths and pulled strong to the finish, increasing the gap momentarily and erossed the line in 19 min.37 sec., Hosmer and McKay coming 26 sec.later, Welsgerber and Clayton 9 sec after them, Gaudaur and Kennedy fourth and Plaisted and Parker fifth.REGATTAS.PHILADEPHIA, June 23.\u2014The annual regatta of the Schuylkill Navy took place here to-day over the National course.The senior four- oared shell race was won by the crew of the University of Pennsylvania in 8.39, the best time on record for four-oared shells on this course, also beating the time of the Hillsdale crew which was 851 4-5.Lacrosse.SHAMROCKS VS.MONTREALERS.A large attendance assembled on the Montreal Lacrosse Grounds on Saturday afternoon to witness the match between the champions and the Montreal first twelve.The weather was all that could have been desired for a game of lacrosse, and the field was in first class condition.The teams appeared upon the field shortly after 3.30 o'clock, and the Montrealers, winning the toss, chose to play down the field.The names of the team were published in a previous issue, but several of the best players in the Shamrock team were conspicuous by their absence.The rubber was got off shortly after 3.80 0\u2019clock, and the play soon beamme exciting, passing from one end of the field to the other with much rapidity.After about fifteen minutes playing, the ball was brought down to the champion\u2019s flags, and McNaughton securing it pitched it to Paton who y a quick throw sent it between the flags, thus winning the first game for the Montrealers.After a short rest the rubber was put off for the sec- ondgame which was also secured by the Montrealers in about eight minutes.The third gaine was also scorcd in about 11 minutes by the Montrealers, who thus won the match.The result of the match created much tested one.The match consisted of firing at | excitement and the opinion in many mind® was that the championship had been wrested from the Shamrocks who had held it 80 long but the knowing ones shook their heads, and declared that the match was not for the championship, and that had it been

it is not being an adherent of the Methodist Church, or the Presbyterian Church, or any other body, but it means emphatically following the Lord Jesus Himself, Following Christ is very comprehensive\u2019 thing.Itis not like following a political leader or a philosophical teacher, where there may be an agreement as to one or two principles and a total disagreement as to others.But there is nothing that is not comprehended in the term, following Christ.The\u2018 truth is that following Jesus touches every-' thing.A man may be a loyal rubject and yet not a follower of Christ, but he cannot be a follower of Christ and not a good citizen.| This very following admits that Jesus Christ | has certain rights over.us.He has a} right to be loved, believed in and obeyed anda therefore as His followers we are bound to render Him love, belief and obedience, For our following of Him must not only be a comprehensive, but an unquestioning following.fhe man who has set his hand to the plough and then hesitates, knows nothing of the sweetness and beauty of Christian discipleship.It requires an utter abandonment of self to Christ, as if a man should say: * Here I am, do with me as seemeth best to you.\u201d This following must also be Bin imitative following.The moment | we enter in the lime of Christian discipleship, we are to set ourselves to the imitation of the Lord Jesus.He is our model; we must therefore study Him in Hië relation both to God and man.Christ, in His relation to the Father, lived a life of worship and spent whole nights in prayer.He took the part of a servant of the Father, and in that spirit we are to be his followers, to lead lives of prayer and to work the works of Christ, so that at the end we may be able to'say, like Him: \u201cI have finished the work which Thou gavest me to do.\u201d Then if we would be followers of Christ we must imitate His conduct in relation to men.Jesus was compassi onate, so must we be; He was forgiving, loving, tender, and had a place in His heart for all who were in distress; 80 rnust we be if we would be his*\u2019followers.Christian discipleship means to walk in the footsteps of our kind master, to be lenient and merciful where he would have been so, and firin and stern to frown down sin, as he would have been.Christian discipleship is the crowning good of man.There are other forms of good, but none so high as this.Culture is a good thing, but it is not the highest good, for a man may have culture and yel may be mean, impure, and his character be rotten at the core.A man may have the good of position, and that is not to be despised, for any position which we have acquired, which is the expression of the good will or our fellow men is to be prired, yet this is not the crowning good.Wealth Jou may have, large means, whether inheriled or acquired by your own efforts; you may be pointe out as a succesful man, a miracle of ability, and yet neither of these ir the crowning good.For after all, these things may only touch two or three aspects of yodr being, but Christian discipleship is the crowning good.Its existence does not imply that there may not be with it culture, position and wealth, but it is emphatically true that a Christian is the highest style of a man; Christian discipleship lifts a man to the dignity of fellowship with Christ, and he thereafter feels that he has an interest in eternity and an investment in Heaven.This discipleship has & beginning, which is sometimes very easy, and does not require a miracle.Jesussaid to Philip, \u2018\u2018Follow me,\u201d and he at once obeyed.There is an hour when the resolve is made, when the soul takes the first step.It may begin here, in this building, and it may begin now.Has it anend?I think not.It does not end at death; death does not affect it.Nor does the J udgment touch it.It lives through all these and enters into the richer and higher Heaven that lies beyond.This Christian discipleship of Philip was evinced not only Ia his following Christ but in his finding Nathaniel.The latter is : described as \u2018An Israelite indeed in whom there is no guile.\u201d\u201d Nathaniel was waiting for the coming of the Messiah and so he was robably well-known to Philip, so that Philip\u2019s first work was to find Nathaniel and tell him the wonderful news that they had found the Saviour, Christian life is substantially one the wide world over.The circumstances of the conversions of individuals may be different, but the results will be similar.The conversion Qf the gaoler and of Lydia were attended by very diverse circumstances, yot there was a substantial oneness in their Christian exper tence.Imagine what Jesus Christ would do if bodily present here this evening in this church.ould he not be saying to each of you, as he said to Philip, * Follow me 7?He would say, *\u2018I know your unrest, your guilt and your broken vows,\u201d but looking into the face of each he would say still, \u201cFollow me.\u201d But he is not here, yet he has authorized us to say unto you, * Come unto me all ye that are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest.\u201d We pray you in Christ's stead, and as Ambassadors for Him to be reconciled to God.I pray you -all to-night to become Christian disciples, without exception.You say- you are guilty,\u2014Christ can cleanse you; that you are weak\u2014he can strengthen you; that you havelittle talent\u2014the response of Christ is \u2018Follow me.\u201d There fore begin to-night to follow Christ.And if you do so to-night where shall it end?The tendency of Christian discipleship is wu ward, homeward and Heavenward.Itis be with Christ and to be like Christ.God grant that each one in this house may say, I will follow Thee, and I wish to begin follow Thee now, whethersoever Thou goest.\u201d The preacher closed an admirable dis- Course, which was most attentively listened THE HAYES EXTENSION LADDER.The Latest Addition to the City Fire Brigade.The Fire Committee, as will be remembered, recently obtained an appropriation of $4,000 for the purchase of a Hayes extension ladder truck to replace the present Skinner ladder, which i8 found inadequate for the requirements of the service.The new ladder is now being made, and is expected to arrive in the city towards the end of July, when à public exhibition of its working will take place under the auspices of the chairman and members of the Fire Committee.A brief description of the new ladder will doubtless prove of interest to our readers.The nature of the ladder is to provide a ready, safe and convenient means of sending up or elevating ladders to a greater or less height against a burning building, rendering escape of inmates possible and greatly assisting the firemen in subduing thé fire.The truck is in most respects like the ordinary ladder and it works by means of a crank, and the ladder is lifted Being mounted om a turn table it can be turned to either side without movin; the position of the truck, and a chain an to an upright pesition.| Flew _Adnertisements.UNDERWEAR!

a pulley and down the fadders for the safe conveyance _of persons and property.The ladders are of sufficent stren to bear the: weight of ten men and four lines of hose.Rope attachments tô the ladders serve to ele-: vate the hose if required.In addition to the; extension ladders the truck carries six other: ladders, varylog in length from eighteen to forty feet, extinguishers, axes, hooks, &c.The special advantages claimed for this apparatus are that it takes but eight or ten feet: of the roadway ; that it can be used on either side of a street, sixty feet wide, without moving the truck; that itcan be used as wellin a Narrow alley as in a wide street; that only three men are needed to \u2018work it, and one minute of time to: put it in operation and that it is perfectly: safe.The ladder can also be transformed into: an aerial ladder and the main ladder being: raised perpendicular, two or three streams can be played in any direction and with safety.The truck has been in service for years in San Francisco, the home of the inventor, Mr.Daniel D.Hayes, and Js also used by the departments of Sacramento, Cal., Oakland, Cal., Philadelphia, Pa., Baltimore, Md.,: Wilmington, Del.,, and St.Paul, Minn.The\u2019 ladder is declared to be the most perfect and\u2019 simple apparatus yet constructed for sending up or elevating ladders to a greater or less height against a burning building, so that the inmate may escape or the fire be suhdued.When elevated it is perfectly safe and there is no danger of its toppling over.Whereever it has been used it has, it is said, given entire satisfaction since it meets all the demands of a first-class fire escape, namely, speed in operation, safety, strength and economy of space.The new ladder will, without doubt, prove a valuable addition to the equipments of the Montreal Fire Brigade.EXHIBITION MATTERS.Another Grand Exhibition.Mr.8.C.Stevenson, the efficient secretary of the Permanent Exhibition Committee, ha recently received circulars concerning the grand Southern exposition which opens at Louisville, Ky., on August 1st, and Mr.Stevenson informed a HERALD representative that the exposition was expected be one of much importance.The exposition has aroused the Southern States to an appreci- tion of the opportunity it will furnish for displaying the resources and attractions of that section of the country.The projectors of the exposition were impelled by theleading idea of bringing the attention of the world to the vast natural products of the South, and furnishing the Southern people a convenient opportunity for examining all the modern improvements in machinery that might help to enhance the value of the products which nature had bestowed upon them.The Northern and Eastern people ofthe United States lost no time in taking hold of the project and began applyin for the vrivilege of exhibiting in such numbers that the success of the undertaking as an exhibition w s immediately assured.Thbd earliest assurance was that northern builders of machinery and southern buyers of machinery would certainly come together in the southern exposition and make it a great and interesting exhibition.One of the most interestin temptations in the Southern Exposition wil be the friendly rivalry of southern States vleing with each other in making the most complete and attractive display of agriculture, mineral and forest products.Mr.Stevenson says that a number of Canadian exhibitors have signified their intention of exhibiting at the Leuisville Exposition.HOME ITEMS.\u2014* All your own fault If you remain sick when you can (Get hop bitters that never\u2014 Fail.The weakest woman, smallest child, and sickest invalid can use hop bitters with safety and great good.\u2014Uld men tottering around from Rheumatism, kidney trouble or any weakness will be almost new by using hop bitters.\u2014My wife and daughter were made healthy by the use.of, hop bitters and 1 recommend them to my, people.\u2014Methodist Clergyman.Ask any good doctor if hop Bitlers are not the best family medicine On earth.\u2014 Malarvial fever, Ague and Biliousness, will leave every neighborhood as soon as hop bitters arrive.\u201c_My mother drove the paralysis and neuralgia all out of her system with hop bitters !

the warm supporters of the Liberal party in the Province of Quebec, and in the name of the party of St.Johns and of the entire province he must congratulate the electors of St.Hyacinthe on the fact that their representative was the leader of the Opposition.So far the war had been a battle of giants, and he felicitated the people of St.Hyacinthe on the eloquence, the vigor and capacity of the gentleman whom they had sent to the House to represent and protect their interests.He remarked upon the lack of heart and lack of interest taken in public affairs by the Government of Mr.Mousseau, and stated that whereas the Opposition were and that Mr.St.Jacques act as Secretary.\u2018After | #8 but fifteen to fifty it had been their function music by the à Secretary Mr.James MeShane,

county of St.Hyacinthe,in meeting assembled, are pleased to greet your arrival in their midst, and to extend to you a most cordial welcome.Since you have been the representative of thi# electoral college we have scanned with watchful eye your we have approved of it, but it is especially since, in your quality of leader of the Liberal Left in the Parliament of Quebec, you have fought energy and ability against the present Provincial Government that we have felt flattered in having chosen you to stand up in defence of our interests, and to watch over those of the whole country We are here to-day to tell you piainly that we are proud of you and that we are honored in your per- conduct in the House, and with so much talent, in the halls of the Legislatureson, The career adopted by you throughout the on of the House has been admirable in every respect, and if our opinions can be of any avail with our compatriots we stand by you before the whole country and express in all its fullness our approbation of your conduct.You have hy governed the Province, or at least rations of the House, which tolerated a Parliamentary majority.We shall not enumerate what you have done.Your We will repeat that the patriotism and sagacity which employ so advantageously in you the solid .qualities of your brilliant eloquence have won last session and since the prorogat in real conducted the 0 achievements are known to all.forgou both general esteem and the hearty admiration of your constituents.We beg you, therefore, to accept our unani- meus congratulations, and to convey in our names to Mrs.Mercier, your worthy wife, the homage of our most profound respect.On behalf of the meeting, (Signed) MAURICE ST.JACQUES, Secretary After the cheering had subsided Hon.Mr Mercier rose and made the following reply, which was loudly applauded at intervals :\u2014 To R.E.Fontaine, Esq., Q.C., Chairman, ana ° ya- Maurice St.Jacques, KEsq., Secretar, the meeting of the citizens of Stcinthe :\u2014 GENTLEMEN,\u2014Accept on your own behalf e committee of citizens whom you represent, my sincere thanks for the kind words expressed inthe address just ad tome.In 1881 I decided to renounce the honor of representing the County of St.Hyacinthe in Legislative Assembly of Quebec, and to retire completely into private life.I needed rest, andsthe interests of my family called for as well as on that of t the this step.The Liberals of St.Hyacinthe were unwilling to grant me thie holiday, and I was obliged to remain in active contest, to the detriment of my health and of my personal interests.Allow me to tell you that this sympathetic demonstration which I owe to your good will compensates me for my fatigue,and consoles me fer my sorrows and vexations, the inseparable accompaniment of a public life.In the course of the last session the Fon.Mr.Joly, who had led the Left in the Legislative Assembly since 1867, felt himself compelled to hand in his resignation, and de- It was at his request

ciples and to their past, to ald expense of the country, work the ruin of their Province.Let these men welcome and let us not hesitate to shake hands with honest men, who wish to aid us in saving the country.Here we are face to face with a debt of more than nineteen millions, with an annual expenditure for the ordinary service of three millions and with a deficit, increasing gradu- sold the North Shore Railway under the pretext that it desired to, put an end to the deficits, to diminish the debt and the expenses and to save the Province the cost of the work that remained to be done to complete the un- ally and with frightful rapidity.The Chapleau Government dertaking.In his speeches of the 27th and 28th March, 1882, before the Legislative Assembly, when the bill authorizing the sale of this provincial read was under discussion, Mr.Chapleau band of the 85th Regiment, the the following telegram from member Jor St.Hyacinthe in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec, and Leader of the Opto direct the business of the House.It had been their duty to combat dishonesty and force of numbers, and the Opposition had succeeded beyond their expectations.Indeed,some Conservatives had found that there was even more than they coul swallow, and the handful of fifteen had stopped much evil, which, without their action, the government wonld have succeeded in perpetrating.He glanced at the different matters which the Opposition had fought against, criticised the Ministeral policy, and expressed his regret that very much which the Opposition had predicted had been more than realized.So closely indeed had the Opposition contentions been borne out that many Conservatives, who had bitterly criticised the tactics of the Opposition, had been compelled to admit that the opponents of the government were right and Mr.Chapleau wrong.To-day the general opinion of the public was that it was to its interests to be on its guard against those who were so seriously imperilling the public weal.He spoke of the confl- dence which honest Conservatives had in their leaders, and attributed to them and to their blind confidence much of the disaster which had been brought about.But now the public had been awakened and had revolted against the Government.The superb triuinph which had been achieved in Lavall \u2014the most Conservative county in the Province\u2014had shown that the ple were no longer to be governed by mere party dictation.He was satisfied that this movement would continue ; and if the Premier would only take the Jacques Carer writ out of his breeches\u2019 pocket, a 1nost magnificent victory would be scored over him.He attacked in strong terms the political morality and incapacity that had been displayed in Quebec, and was satisfied that the future welfare of the Province lay in the hands of the Liberals.He contended that the Liberals were the defenders of all the rights and constitutional privileges of the people of the Province, and stated that the iberal party would ever be prepared to defend provincial autonomy from Dominion interference.In conclusion he expressed the hope that the Liberals of St.Hyacinthe would implement their belief that the future of the country was in the hands of the Liberal arty.r The chairman then called upon Mr.G.W.Stephens, M.P.P., who spoke in French.He said :\u2014 The congratulations presented to your representative, the Chief of the Opposition, today, as a testimonial of your appreciation of his efforts on behalf of good government, have been fairly earned by him.Few are aware of the pluck and determination required to battle constantlysgainst an overpowering majority.The Chief of the Opposition has had an arduous duty to perform, and he has certainly thrown his whole soul and energy into the work.He deserves all the praise you have glvem him, and he deserves the support of every one who desires a return to honest government.For the past two sessions, at least, the provinee has not been governed by a party at all.It has been simply a band of speculators, whose common interest has been to promote, by legislative enactment, the speculations and intrigues of the brotherhood.They have been and are now utterly regard ess of the interests or we.fare of the province.\u201c Apres moi le deluge \u201d is their motto.They have increased the expenditures of the Province in every possibie direction.No matter who assumes the government, new ways of deriving a revenue must be sought out.This clique, which in reality governs our country and pulls the wires, does not care what color of politics prevailes so long as they can obtaln all that government has to give, and buy government railways at half price.Mr.Mousseau is onl a cat\u2019®s paw in the matter.After doing all the mischief, Mr.Chapleau has gone to Ottawa, and he found there this poor simpleton Mousseau, who apparently accepted the office of scapegoat.erhaps they will make him a judge after he has taken over all the: gins of his predecessor.Mr.Mousseau promised reforms without number, and rigid economy.His reforms are in the vast future.But we have a sample of his ideas of economy in the fact that the expenses of government are increased in one department alone to $37,000 per annum, and the province will have to face an annual deficit of $900,000.Mr.Chapleau sold our railway to his friend, Mr.Senccal, and assured us it was for the purpose of saving the province an expected expenditure of $1,140,000 to complete the railway, which we would not have to pay if we sold the railway.Since Mr.Chapleau made this speech we have spent on the North Shore railway at least $1,386,000, which, according to Mr.Chapleau, we were to save by selling the railway to his bosom friend.The sale of the railway was to reduce our debt by at least eight millions, but no sooner is the railway sold than we borrow 83,5:0,000.This is financiering with a ven- gance.If Mr.Mousseau and Mr.Wurtele could only be prevailed upon to take charge of the finances of the United States, and act under the advice of the Chapieau Senecal organization they would soon put a stop to the too rapid reduction of the national debt of the United States.At last honest Conservatives are waking up.The Laval election is the first sign of the times, and the day is not far distant when the country will, by a large majority, hurl into everlasting disgrace the men who have been stuffing their pockets at the public ex- pence.We, the Liberal delegation in Parliament, are too few in number to form a Government ; we are numerous enough and patriotic enough to assist every honest effort to restore good government.Certain it is that a change must be made, and that quickly, if the people desire honest government and economical reform.The time has now arrived when the predictions of the Liberal party in the Province of Quebec are, completely fulfilled.It it time every onest citizen should extend to us the support which our platform of economy and good overnment deserves [applause.] said : The Government does not scll a farm it | & eh ean.folicitated Mr.David upon is true, it is its railway that it sells: but

will be obliged to add to his budget all these sums, for if we retain the line, it will be absolutely necessary to expend a million and a quarter; but not having the money to pay for this work the government binds the purchasers to do it, and gives them an acquittance for so much, in which difference it will have to make its own provision for a million and a quarter, or have it paid by an-

that the deficits which have accumulated for several years,and that of this year ; we know the sources of our revenue, those teat are certain, but let us except what we have still to pay on interest and the pay ment on our debt, and we do not want to de ceive either the House or the public; we owe it to our creditors not to run any further risk in estimating our resources.\u201cWe know that in selling our railway we lighten our budggt sutficicntly to be in a posi tion to assure the country that there will be an end to deficits, and that the day is not far distant when a surplus will take

there that evening the interest he had taken in the leader of the Opposition.Mr.Mercier had come from St.Hyacinthe to Montreal, the modern Babylon, and still remains proof against all temptation, He Was the same as when he went away firm and honest in his pure and early convictions.He had fought for country and liberty, and particularly had he distinguished himself in his espousal of the cause of the De Lorimier family.He had thus shown himself worthy of thé esteem and support of the French Canadian patriots of St, Hyacinthe.He was here, moreover, because the people of St.Hyacinthe should be sympathised with in their consistent support of Liberal principles.and in their endorsation of the «| leader of the Local Opposition.He sym- - | pathized with the peop e of St.Hyacinthe, not only because of their support of leader of the Opposition, but because that gentleman had proven himself capable of leading the whole House.Besides Mr.Mercier had treat- - | ed Mr.Mousseau with a generosity seldom found among politiqui men, never having taken any unfair vantage, although the I opportunities to do so had frequently present~ »d themselves.Again he was glad to be present, because men like Mr.Mercier fought for public rights, as indeed the defender of the provincial cow, which all were so greviously maltreating.He concluded that not only had Mr.Mousseau been the inheritor of the crimes of Mr.Chapleau, but he had in himself committed most grievious offences, which he must himself expiate.It was Mr.Mousseau who, at the feet of Sir John Macdonald, had caused the dismissal of Mr.Letellier.He had humiliated the province, imperiled its autonomy, and no one could witness the straits in which he was now placed without satisfaction, He had brought the province to bankruptcy and

followed, after whom spoke Mr.Gaboury,M.P.P., and Mr.Mercier, M.P.P., each of whom spoke in earnest and eloquent terms of the straits into which Mr.Chapleau and Mr.Mousseau had brought the province.The meeting then separated.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Novelties in English and Scotch tweed vitings.L.Robinson\u2019s, 31 Beaver

day\u2019s The day was very warm and the dust rose in clouds on the drive eut from the city to Blue Bonnets.The attendance was very large, society and fashion being present in full force.The stylish four-in-hand coach was the theme of admiration, and so also was a fine drag driven by Messrs.McIntyre and A.B.Chaffee, Jr.The course was in capital condition, perhaps a little hard, but the nags prefer that to mud.Of the several events only the last one could becalled a fizzle.In this, the hurdle race, two came to the scratch.The tavorites, asa rule, did ail that was expected of them by their backers, and what the \u201cStables\u2019\u201d won on Thursday was taken from it on Saturday.About three o\u2019clock the first race was called and the horses were saddled in the paddock.There were six entries, but Birdcatcher and Moonlight were scratched, and only the following showed up for ladies purse, $150; $125 to first horse, $25 to second.For horses that have never won public

to the front, with Williams and the Marquis at her girth.On the home stretch the running was so close that whips were freely applied on Williams and the Marquis, but Chipola held her own and won by a

were withdrawn, and the whole interest centered in the merits of two stables, Dawes\u2019 and Coghlin\u2019s, both entlemen having a pair entered.The bet- ie was about even.The following came to the flags :\u2014 B.J.Coghlin\u2019s b f Easter, 4 yrs., by Vicksburg, 127 1bs.B.J.Coghlin\u2019s bg Tullamore, 8 yrs., by Stockwood, 115 1bs.J.P.Dawes\u2019 ¢c h Kincaid, 6 yrs., by Waverly, 4 1bs.J.Fr Dawes\u2019 b f Chipola, 4yrs., by Saxon, 115 bs.A great deal of time was lost through the stubborness of Chipola to come up, and at last her stable mate had to go and coax her up, and the field were sent off with a flying start, Kincald and Easter going at once to the front, with Tullamore and Chipola close up.This position was kept for a mile, the pairs keeping well together, but Tullamore who had the lightest weight and was counte the dark horse to win, sent up his tail and was out of it.Chipola made a game effort to gamely, aud never could reach Kincaid, who came in a good winner about

use, Roddey\u2019s colored Jock had his horse well in hand and sent him along for all he was worth, as the colt Keewatin was in good humor and pushing close up for the lead, The exciternent was very great, as the three leaders entered on the home stretch, Roddey was only a short length ahead, and Kecewatin and D'Arcy werc at it for first lace.The whip was applied to D\u2019Arcy to Reon her going.Keewatin was not touched ; if he had been it is Just possible in the last 100 ards he would have come in a dead heat with Roddey.As it was, Roddey got in by a short length.Keewatin and D'Arcy were s0 close that it was not known for & time who had gained second place, but the numbers were soon run up, and then a cheer went up for Keewatin who had so gamely won his place.The jockey of D\u2019Arcy (Wise), on seeing this, became excited, and rushing improper language, for which Lt.Col.Campbell at once very justly and properly ruled him off for ever riding on the Fashion Course.Torento horsemen, and, after explanations, Wise was told to go and apologise for his misconduct, which he did.Lt.Col.Campbell read him a sound lecture, and, at the solicitations ofgthe stewards and gentlemen present, rescinded hisorder ruling Wise off the course.This was a very generous and kindly act, and it is to be hoped Wise and all other jockies will learn to be better mannered.For the

Orkney were the only two who faced the starter.The former stood favorite.À good start was made and the first two jumps passed, when in some unaccountable manner, Orkney\u2019s jock was thrown receiving a bad gash over the right eye and getting his right arm badly straimed.Orkney at once boited into the field, but was caught after a few seconds and mounted by Mr.R.Pennistoun, who pluckily gave chase to Charlemagne, who by this time was on the curve coming home with ease.The race was a fizzle and who's to blame it is hard to find out.Mr.Dawes would have run Rose, but she met with a slight injury the previous day; but where were Annette, Rienzi and Echo?The last event was the consolation race, handicap, $150; $90 to first horse, $40 to second and $20 to third.For horses that have run at this meeting and not won first or second money.Distance, 1 mile.Entrance, $5; which was won by Tullamore.This closed the summer meeting, and the managers are to be congratulated upon its great success.Mr.Duncan Robertson, the secretary of the tlub, did his work well, and we anticipate for the fall meeting equally as good sport.Pointe Claire Boating Club.The annual ball of the club came off, as we previously noticed,on Friday night and was a most successful affair.This popular summer resort and the hops given by the boating club during the season always call out a large attendance of the haut ton, and on Friday nightthe Club house was crowded with as merry a gathering as we have ever witnessed.The fair sex, one and all, looked most charming, and in their costly and becoming toilets did honor to their country.We hear a good deal said and have read a good deal of good- natured criticism in American papers en the poor taste displayed in dress by our Canadian young ladies, but we _ imagine that even the belles of Newrt, Long Branch and Saratoga would bave found it ditficult to surpass those who were present at Pointe Claire on Friday night last.Every lady was the picture of health, and the bright eyes and ringing laughter testified to their good nature and enjoyment.The night was a beautiful one, a nice cool, refreshing breeze came gently over the lake, just rippling the water, which shone like silver under the rays of the moon.The dancing room was the club house, right square on the point, and its decorations were in good taste.The interior was festooned with flags and with devices of aquatic sports.In the centre hung the original mode of water conveyance, à birch-bark canoe.The inside and outside were lighted with lamps and Chinese lanterns, the whole scene, viewed trom a short distance away on the water, having a fine effect.The supper, which was a capital one, was laid in a marquee adjoining the Club house, and here some interesting speeches were made during supper.Dancing was kept up with great spirit from nine o\u2019clock to two, and everybody went in with a will to have all the enjoyment possible.The committee looked after the strangers and vied with each other in making everyone at home.Gruenwald\u2019s orchestra never played better.At supper Dr.Roddick, in most complimentary terms, thanked those from a distance for their attendance, and coupled | with it the names of Messrs.T.Davidson there were no less than six entries, yet only] and J.P.Dawes, of Lachine, who were present with a large party in Mr.Dawes\u2019 acht.Mr.Davidson, in his usual happy aud umorous style, returned thanks and admitted that Pointe Claire was at the head of aquatic affairs.Lachine hud goue back instead of forward, and so had st.Ann\u2019s, but Pointe

health of the President of the Pointe Claire Boating Club, Mr.Tooke, which was enthusiastically honored, and that gentleman in a few brief words thank those present for the honor done him.The Lachine and Montreal parties left at half one o'clock for their destination, all well pleased with their trip and loud in praise of the Pointe Claire Club.We believe it is the intention of the club to give their usual fortnightly hops during the season.The Rifle.THE VICTORIA RIFLE ASSOCIATION held the third of its weekly series of matches at the Point St.Charles ranges on Saturday, the following being

highly : TEEMER WINS THE CONSOLATION; HANLAN AND LEE THE DOUBLE SCULL.PULLMAN, Ill., June 23.\u2014The sculling regatta on Lake Calumet this afternoon devel oped a suprise and prodigy in the person of young Teemer, a Wickeesport oarsman, who won a place in the final struggle yesterday, but who failed to keep with either Hanlan, Hosmer or Hamm,owing,as it is now claimed, his inexperience in rowing in rough water.To-day in the consolation race, open to all but the three leaders of the day preceding, he covered three miles in 20.14, thus lowering Courtney\u2019s best record of 20.143, and upon whieh hls reputation had been built.The sk was overcast, and the Lake was placid.5,000 people were on the grounds.Seven men were ready when the word was given at 4.07 and went off together, having been placed as follows: \u2014 McKay, Lee, Gaudaur, Elliott, Parker, Riley, Teemer and Plaisted.Gaudaur showed to the front early with Riley second, Elliott third ; the latter pulling a stroke of thirty-six to the minute.At the half-mile buoy, Riley and Gaudaur were abreast, both leading Teemer and Lec a length, Teemer then drew up and passed Elliott, who dropped out of the race.Lee then forged ahead and turned the mile and a haif buoy first in 9.15, Gaudaur second, with Teemer, Riley, McKay and Plaisted in the order named.At 1j mile buoy Lee makes a claim that Gaudaur fouled him, and from that on his chance for first place was gone.Gaudaur pushed ahead, and passed the two mile buoy in 14.3, leading Lee one half length, McKay in close proximity with Teemer on his quarter, Parker and Plaisted well in the rear.Lee stopped rowing soon after passing the two mile buoy.Teemer all this while was rowing in fine form, and passing McKay pulled for Gaudaur with a stroke\u201d of 32 to the minute.At 2 mile buoy Teemer went to the front and held it to the finish, Gaudaur coming in second,two seconds later in time.with McKay, Riley, Parker and Plaisted following in the order named, McKay and Riley being well up to the leaders.Time was kept by official timekeepers, and this was found to tally with four stop-watches held on the judge\u2019s boat.The double seull race came off with entries in the order given :\u2014sanlan and Lee, Plaisted and Parker, Hosmer and McKay, Gaudaur and Kennedy, Weisgerber and Clayton.Hanlan and Lee led off at 40 strokes, and were pushed for one mile by Hosmer and McKay, Weisgerber and Clayton keeping well up, Plaisted and Parker dropping back.Hanlan and Lee passed the mile and a half buoy in 8 min.42 sec., McKay and Hosmer second, Gaudier and Kennedy third, Weisgerber and Clayton fourth, and Plaisted and Parker fifth.After starting for home Hanlan and Lee increased their lead materially and before passing the two-mile buoy ceased rowing for fully ten seconds.They -tarted again, leading by six lengths and pulled strong to the finish, increasing the gap momentarily and erossed the line in 19 min.37 sec., Hosmer and McKay coming 26 sec.later, Welsgerber and Clayton 9 sec after them, Gaudaur and Kennedy fourth and Plaisted and Parker fifth.REGATTAS.PHILADEPHIA, June 23.\u2014The annual regatta of the Schuylkill Navy took place here to-day over the National course.The senior four- oared shell race was won by the crew of the University of Pennsylvania in 8.39, the best time on record for four-oared shells on this course, also beating the time of the Hillsdale crew which was 851 4-5.Lacrosse.SHAMROCKS VS.MONTREALERS.A large attendance assembled on the Montreal Lacrosse Grounds on Saturday afternoon to witness the match between the champions and the Montreal first twelve.The weather was all that could have been desired for a game of lacrosse, and the field was in first class condition.The teams appeared upon the field shortly after 3.30 o'clock, and the Montrealers, winning the toss, chose to play down the field.The names of the team were published in a previous issue, but several of the best players in the Shamrock team were conspicuous by their absence.The rubber was got off shortly after 3.80 0\u2019clock, and the play soon beamme exciting, passing from one end of the field to the other with much rapidity.After about fifteen minutes playing, the ball was brought down to the champion\u2019s flags, and McNaughton securing it pitched it to Paton who y a quick throw sent it between the flags, thus winning the first game for the Montrealers.After a short rest the rubber was put off for the sec- ondgame which was also secured by the Montrealers in about eight minutes.The third gaine was also scorcd in about 11 minutes by the Montrealers, who thus won the match.The result of the match created much tested one.The match consisted of firing at | excitement and the opinion in many mind® was that the championship had been wrested from the Shamrocks who had held it 80 long but the knowing ones shook their heads, and declared that the match was not for the championship, and that had it been the result would have been far different.As it was the members ofthe champion team who played displayed greatapatby a8 to the result though the match was in some particulars a very closely contested

it is not being an adherent of the Methodist Church, or the Presbyterian Church, or any other body, but it means emphatically following the Lord Jesus Himself, Following Christ is very comprehensive\u2019 thing.Itis not like following a political leader or a philosophical teacher, where there may be an agreement as to one or two principles and a total disagreement as to others.But there is nothing that is not comprehended in the term, following Christ.The\u2018 truth is that following Jesus touches every-' thing.A man may be a loyal rubject and yet not a follower of Christ, but he cannot be a follower of Christ and not a good citizen.| This very following admits that Jesus Christ | has certain rights over.us.He has a} right to be loved, believed in and obeyed anda therefore as His followers we are bound to render Him love, belief and obedience, For our following of Him must not only be a comprehensive, but an unquestioning following.fhe man who has set his hand to the plough and then hesitates, knows nothing of the sweetness and beauty of Christian discipleship.It requires an utter abandonment of self to Christ, as if a man should say: * Here I am, do with me as seemeth best to you.\u201d This following must also be Bin imitative following.The moment | we enter in the lime of Christian discipleship, we are to set ourselves to the imitation of the Lord Jesus.He is our model; we must therefore study Him in Hië relation both to God and man.Christ, in His relation to the Father, lived a life of worship and spent whole nights in prayer.He took the part of a servant of the Father, and in that spirit we are to be his followers, to lead lives of prayer and to work the works of Christ, so that at the end we may be able to'say, like Him: \u201cI have finished the work which Thou gavest me to do.\u201d Then if we would be followers of Christ we must imitate His conduct in relation to men.Jesus was compassi onate, so must we be; He was forgiving, loving, tender, and had a place in His heart for all who were in distress; 80 rnust we be if we would be his*\u2019followers.Christian discipleship means to walk in the footsteps of our kind master, to be lenient and merciful where he would have been so, and firin and stern to frown down sin, as he would have been.Christian discipleship is the crowning good of man.There are other forms of good, but none so high as this.Culture is a good thing, but it is not the highest good, for a man may have culture and yel may be mean, impure, and his character be rotten at the core.A man may have the good of position, and that is not to be despised, for any position which we have acquired, which is the expression of the good will or our fellow men is to be prired, yet this is not the crowning good.Wealth Jou may have, large means, whether inheriled or acquired by your own efforts; you may be pointe out as a succesful man, a miracle of ability, and yet neither of these ir the crowning good.For after all, these things may only touch two or three aspects of yodr being, but Christian discipleship is the crowning good.Its existence does not imply that there may not be with it culture, position and wealth, but it is emphatically true that a Christian is the highest style of a man; Christian discipleship lifts a man to the dignity of fellowship with Christ, and he thereafter feels that he has an interest in eternity and an investment in Heaven.This discipleship has & beginning, which is sometimes very easy, and does not require a miracle.Jesussaid to Philip, \u2018\u2018Follow me,\u201d and he at once obeyed.There is an hour when the resolve is made, when the soul takes the first step.It may begin here, in this building, and it may begin now.Has it anend?I think not.It does not end at death; death does not affect it.Nor does the J udgment touch it.It lives through all these and enters into the richer and higher Heaven that lies beyond.This Christian discipleship of Philip was evinced not only Ia his following Christ but in his finding Nathaniel.The latter is : described as \u2018An Israelite indeed in whom there is no guile.\u201d\u201d Nathaniel was waiting for the coming of the Messiah and so he was robably well-known to Philip, so that Philip\u2019s first work was to find Nathaniel and tell him the wonderful news that they had found the Saviour, Christian life is substantially one the wide world over.The circumstances of the conversions of individuals may be different, but the results will be similar.The conversion Qf the gaoler and of Lydia were attended by very diverse circumstances, yot there was a substantial oneness in their Christian exper tence.Imagine what Jesus Christ would do if bodily present here this evening in this church.ould he not be saying to each of you, as he said to Philip, * Follow me 7?He would say, *\u2018I know your unrest, your guilt and your broken vows,\u201d but looking into the face of each he would say still, \u201cFollow me.\u201d But he is not here, yet he has authorized us to say unto you, * Come unto me all ye that are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest.\u201d We pray you in Christ's stead, and as Ambassadors for Him to be reconciled to God.I pray you -all to-night to become Christian disciples, without exception.You say- you are guilty,\u2014Christ can cleanse you; that you are weak\u2014he can strengthen you; that you havelittle talent\u2014the response of Christ is \u2018Follow me.\u201d There fore begin to-night to follow Christ.And if you do so to-night where shall it end?The tendency of Christian discipleship is wu ward, homeward and Heavenward.Itis be with Christ and to be like Christ.God grant that each one in this house may say, I will follow Thee, and I wish to begin follow Thee now, whethersoever Thou goest.\u201d The preacher closed an admirable dis- Course, which was most attentively listened THE HAYES EXTENSION LADDER.The Latest Addition to the City Fire Brigade.The Fire Committee, as will be remembered, recently obtained an appropriation of $4,000 for the purchase of a Hayes extension ladder truck to replace the present Skinner ladder, which i8 found inadequate for the requirements of the service.The new ladder is now being made, and is expected to arrive in the city towards the end of July, when à public exhibition of its working will take place under the auspices of the chairman and members of the Fire Committee.A brief description of the new ladder will doubtless prove of interest to our readers.The nature of the ladder is to provide a ready, safe and convenient means of sending up or elevating ladders to a greater or less height against a burning building, rendering escape of inmates possible and greatly assisting the firemen in subduing thé fire.The truck is in most respects like the ordinary ladder and it works by means of a crank, and the ladder is lifted Being mounted om a turn table it can be turned to either side without movin; the position of the truck, and a chain an to an upright pesition.| Flew _Adnertisements.UNDERWEAR!

a pulley and down the fadders for the safe conveyance _of persons and property.The ladders are of sufficent stren to bear the: weight of ten men and four lines of hose.Rope attachments tô the ladders serve to ele-: vate the hose if required.In addition to the; extension ladders the truck carries six other: ladders, varylog in length from eighteen to forty feet, extinguishers, axes, hooks, &c.The special advantages claimed for this apparatus are that it takes but eight or ten feet: of the roadway ; that it can be used on either side of a street, sixty feet wide, without moving the truck; that itcan be used as wellin a Narrow alley as in a wide street; that only three men are needed to \u2018work it, and one minute of time to: put it in operation and that it is perfectly: safe.The ladder can also be transformed into: an aerial ladder and the main ladder being: raised perpendicular, two or three streams can be played in any direction and with safety.The truck has been in service for years in San Francisco, the home of the inventor, Mr.Daniel D.Hayes, and Js also used by the departments of Sacramento, Cal., Oakland, Cal., Philadelphia, Pa., Baltimore, Md.,: Wilmington, Del.,, and St.Paul, Minn.The\u2019 ladder is declared to be the most perfect and\u2019 simple apparatus yet constructed for sending up or elevating ladders to a greater or less height against a burning building, so that the inmate may escape or the fire be suhdued.When elevated it is perfectly safe and there is no danger of its toppling over.Whereever it has been used it has, it is said, given entire satisfaction since it meets all the demands of a first-class fire escape, namely, speed in operation, safety, strength and economy of space.The new ladder will, without doubt, prove a valuable addition to the equipments of the Montreal Fire Brigade.EXHIBITION MATTERS.Another Grand Exhibition.Mr.8.C.Stevenson, the efficient secretary of the Permanent Exhibition Committee, ha recently received circulars concerning the grand Southern exposition which opens at Louisville, Ky., on August 1st, and Mr.Stevenson informed a HERALD representative that the exposition was expected be one of much importance.The exposition has aroused the Southern States to an appreci- tion of the opportunity it will furnish for displaying the resources and attractions of that section of the country.The projectors of the exposition were impelled by theleading idea of bringing the attention of the world to the vast natural products of the South, and furnishing the Southern people a convenient opportunity for examining all the modern improvements in machinery that might help to enhance the value of the products which nature had bestowed upon them.The Northern and Eastern people ofthe United States lost no time in taking hold of the project and began applyin for the vrivilege of exhibiting in such numbers that the success of the undertaking as an exhibition w s immediately assured.Thbd earliest assurance was that northern builders of machinery and southern buyers of machinery would certainly come together in the southern exposition and make it a great and interesting exhibition.One of the most interestin temptations in the Southern Exposition wil be the friendly rivalry of southern States vleing with each other in making the most complete and attractive display of agriculture, mineral and forest products.Mr.Stevenson says that a number of Canadian exhibitors have signified their intention of exhibiting at the Leuisville Exposition.HOME ITEMS.\u2014* All your own fault If you remain sick when you can (Get hop bitters that never\u2014 Fail.The weakest woman, smallest child, and sickest invalid can use hop bitters with safety and great good.\u2014Uld men tottering around from Rheumatism, kidney trouble or any weakness will be almost new by using hop bitters.\u2014My wife and daughter were made healthy by the use.of, hop bitters and 1 recommend them to my, people.\u2014Methodist Clergyman.Ask any good doctor if hop Bitlers are not the best family medicine On earth.\u2014 Malarvial fever, Ague and Biliousness, will leave every neighborhood as soon as hop bitters arrive.\u201c_My mother drove the paralysis and neuralgia all out of her system with hop bitters !
