comment upon.The present period of the season is usually a dull one, but it was not anticipated by outsiders in the early part of the summer that trade generally would have been so slack, as the crop prospects were considered excellent.Merchants and bankers, however, were determined to be on the safe side and restricted any expansion over the legitimate wants of trade, and to-day the wisdom of this safe policy is to be scen.It was, in view of this condition of affairs, that for several weeks we have been warranted in cautioning our readers to be careful in the purchasing of securities.Recent events have further confirmed the general accuracy of our views, There has been a sharp decline in values, but we imagine this has been caused more from the fuct that our speculators on ¢ the street\u201d have been caught \u201cshort\u201d of the New York market, which has suddenly alvanced, and have been forced to sell to keep up margins, than from anv want of decrease in the volume of trade of this Dominion.The slight depression which has existed the past few months has caused no great difficulties to the business community and as far as we can learn the fall outlook is looking brighter every day.Whether the recent decline in the price of stocks has put the market on a safe basis for buying or not we are not in a position to definitely state, but we imagine, from the tone of the markets, that many of the bank and miscellaneous securities have touched ¢ bed rock \u201d and that any further decline need not be looked forward to.In fact we should not be surprised to have to report next week a sudden and improved change iu the feeling of the markets with a teu- dency upward.There is only a slight demand for accommodation from commercial borrowers and their demands are fully met by bankers at 6} @ 7 per cent.on \u201cgilt edge\u201d paper and call loans are obtained at 5 @ 5% as to the nature of the collateral.The local stock market was active, opening weak, but towards the close there was a hardening up of prices, and as a consequence the bears looked anything but comfortable.Bank of Montreal opened at 197, and moved up to 197} before the close.Ontario advanced # from 1153@115%, and Peoples were traded in at 71@71}.Molsons were quiet at 126@127, and Toronto opened at 184}, declined to 184, but rallied up to the opening price before the close.Jacques Cartier were in offer at 109, with buyers at 104.Merchants declined } from the opening at 121% to 121}.Eastern Townships could have been purchased at 118, and Union at 90, but there were no transactions.Commerce were traded in at 1323@132%, and a few shares of Exchange changed hands at 135, Ville Marie were unchanged at 98 @ 105, and a round amount of Federal sold at 162.Montreal Telegraph were quiet and steady at 1224@1234.Canadian Pacific advanced from 564 to 57.Richelieu sold firm at 75- City Passenger dropped from 125 to 1244 Gas were about steady, selling at 1774@ 177$, closing at the opening quotation.A round amount of St.Paul & Minneapolis changed hands at 109.Canada Shipping Company could have been purchased at 88, and L.C.& St.L.Junction Railway at 87, but transactions were nil.North-West Land sold down from 50s to 49s 6d.Land Grants were in offer at 99, with buyers at 96.The rest of the securities are nominally as quoted :\u2014 MORNING

popularity of the West Shore along the Hudson is its elegant passenger cars, which are as much handsomer and as much more comfortable than ordinary passenger cars on other roads as the magnificent Pullman palace cars now running cn the West Shore route between Washington, Long Brauch, New York, Albany and Saratoga, are superiur to any palace cars heretofore run in New York state.The exemption from smoke and cinders by the use of hard-coal-burning engines, such as are exclusively in service on the West Shore, is also a great relief to passengers, and adds immeasureably to the comfort and pledsure in travelling.GENERAL NOTES.\u2014The United States Consul at Leeds reports that tlie new United States tariff has proved very disastrous to the English woolen trade.The flax And linen trade

been a continuation of the quiet tone lately noticed, yet there is a fair volume of business without much display.It is true that unsatisfactory expressions are sometimes heard, but it is better to keep trade within legitimate boundaries, than to have it unduly expanded by artificially stimulating the.movement of merchandise.Dry goods have had a moderately steady inquiry for general assortments, resulting in a fair aggregate of business, and while no special activity can be reported the trade is considered in a healthy condition.The metal markets are devoid of new feature.The distribution of general groceries keeps well up to a satisfactory level, and most houses report a good number of orders coming in.Fruits are very quiet, owing to the absence of supplies to deal in.Coffee Rapeseed has.change.Sugars in good request and syrup active, Spices quiet and firm.Some lines of chemicals are higher, but all are firm.Hops continue quiet.Leather has a more buoyant tone, while hides remain about steady.Turpentine has advanced ; other navalstores dull.Lumber is moderately active and steady, oils firm and wool quiet.Flour has been well maintained in value during the week, considering that it has had to contend with demoralized wheat markets at all points on this continent, as well as unsatisfactory cable news.The grain market has been literally a blank, with trade on spot most disappointingly slow.Hog products have ruled dull and weak, Pork has shown a considerable decline on the week.Butter has continued dull, and greatly nominal.The cheese market was quite strong during the earlier portion of the week, but it closes with an easier tendency.Chicago speculative circles have been overwhelmed by another severe bear raid on all articles, the brunt of which has been borne by wheat and provisions, but to-day there was a general rally.The depreciation of wheat.on the week was at one time 5gc on September and Sie on October, a drop sufficient to wipe out a good many margins.Corn, after dropping 2¢ /@ 3c, has firmed up under reports of frost in the corn sections.October pork broke $1.173 per brl and October lard 624c per 100 Ibs, but both close with a portion of the decline recovered.The following table gives the course of the October deliveries of each article :\u2014 wneat\u2026.SPTUF Highest.Lowest.Closing.03 $1.03 $ 0.97 $ 0.934 Corn .0.49 0.49 0.46 0.47

trades a want of activity is still very general,but on one or two of the markets rather large transactions have taken place.From the heavy arrivals of new season\u2019s teas, considerable supplies have again been brought to auction and cleared off.but the commoner grades of Congou, and more particularly red leaf, have further declined 4d per lb.Indian teas have ruled firm for fine qualities, but the ordinary grades have not been so well supported.Coffee, after engaging only moderate attention, finished decidedly good.New York has advanced, and the continental markets have, with increase of business, sustained a slight advance.Here prices close 23 dearer for Costa Rica, and very firm for other imports, including plantation Ceylon and East Indian.Sugar has remained a dead letter as regards business, but without any appreciable loss in value ; and for fine crystallized Demerara rather stiff rates have been obtained.Reports of beet crops are favorable.Rice has further advanced 3d per cwt, and prices have a further upward tendency.Cloves have realised a small advance, but the spice trade otherwise is dull.The first shipment of new Valencia raisins in quantity left Spain this week, and is expected here about the 31st inst.A large business has been done in jute at a further advance of 2s 6d to 5s.Manila hemp is still inactive.Cotton, though not brisk.maintains steady value, and the same may be said \u201cof metals.The oil and tallow trades have been moderately active, Sugar \u2014 À quiet tone still prevails throughout the warket, but there has been rather more doing in pieces at unaltered rates.Dried goods sell slowly and with- ont quotable change.Mauritius cut loaf, 30s ; ditto titlers, 28s 6d ; cubes, 29s ; Tate\u2019s ditto, 30s ; Duncan\u2019s, 30s.Dutch crushed dull, No.1 in bags quoted 25s 3d, prompt sellers.Raw cane unaltered, and inquiry still restricted.Coffee\u2014A better market to-day generally.Plantation Ceylon sold at steady prices; Guatemalas full value; Uosta Rica about 1s dearer.Tea\u2014The sales have gone unevenly, but without materially altering quotations.Rice firm, with a good inquiry.Jute maintains the late advance.Oils\u2014Linseed remains without material change; London, spot, 20s 14d to 20s 73d; Hull, 19s 6d to 20s 13d] rape steady; English brown, 30s spot, refined 32s.Turpentine is firmer; American spirits, 32s 6d spot.BRITISH SHIPPING TRADE.H.& E.Moss & Co., of London and Liverpool, thus review the shipping interests during the six months from February 15 to August 15, 1883:\u2014 Since February 15, 1883, a large business in steamers has been done, and many of those building on speculation have changed hands at a fair margin of profit to the contractors.This went on until early June, when a reaction took place so rapidly that for a time shipowners and builders feared a panic might set in, with results that would prove fatal in many cases.Matters have, however, now smoothed down somewhat, and though the anxiety to realize is rather too eagerly shown by some holders, there is a decidedly better feeling, and we are hopetul of getting through the crisis with less calamity than was at first expected.\u201cSeveral causes have contributed towards this unquiet feeling, notably the low freights which have now been ruling for several months; and secondly, the very general feeling that the market was overbuilt.The low freights unfortunately still exist, but as regards the new tonnage, it is silently absorbed (it is almost difficult to say by whom, but the fact exists), and we know of very few steamers that have been forced on the market and sold below contract price.Managing owners are no doubt pulling themselves together, and they must find it much more difficult to make up their owneries; but the process is still going ou, and we can state from our personal knowledge it is successfully carried out.Fortunately the foreigner is still as of heretofore a large buyer, and in addition to numerous purchases of ready boats, has plaecd orders with Clyde and other builders for many others.Builders, however, begin to see daylight, and though with few exceptions, yards are full for several months to come, there is an increasing anxiety amongst them to book | and tea rule steady, without quotable | orders with the usual result, viz.: that prices are easier for the buyer and worse for the producer; we are, however, bound to say, we see no chance of any serious reduction in the cost of building for a long while to cqne.Materials are, as a rule, as low as they can be produced or imported, and labor is so unsatisfactory, and the men are £0 unreasonable, that it will prove a very unstable factor when any caculations of future cost have to be made.- It will be useless to deny that a certain proportion of tonnage held in weak hands must be sold as soon as builders are ready with delivery, and we believe some really cheap bargains can be picked up during the next few months, but there arc always capitalists ready to take advantage of the chance, and buyers must keep a sharp look out or they will lose their opportunity.\u201cIron sailing vessels are much sought after, and several orders for vessels of 1500 to 2000 tons register have been piaced at £13 to £13 10s, \u201cThe French bounty seriously handicaps thie British builder; for example, on a vessel, if built in France, of about 4200 tons, the premium paid by the government to the snip-owner would exceed by upwards of £5000 per annum the premium he would receive tor a similar vessel if

encouraging.CHEMICALS\u2014À firm tone pervades the general market in all its branches, while there has been a moderately active movement of spot goods, or a somewhat increased disposition among buyers to anticipate future requirements, owing to the comparatively low rates of freight now obtainable.The firmness centers more on bleaching powder, soda ash, and caustic soda, all of which have advanced in sympathy with the English market, and all other lines are well maintained.Soda ash 18 quoted at $1.75@$1.90; bleaching powder at $2.25@%2 50 ; and caustic soda at $2.25@$2.40.We quote

of the hop market, says :\u2014 « The week\u2019s business has been very moderate, and the demand wholly devoid of character calculated to develop new strength.Brewers have taken only small lots, and shippers\u2019 purchases turn out unimportant.English houses cable over apparent inducements, but for some reason dealers are disinclined to send a great deal over until the people on the other side first urchase.Hence, it may safely be calcu- ated that the shipments from \u201cthis point virtually represent so many hops passed into the hands of consumers, Late ad- vices report an advance of 20s in the Lon- don market, and assign damage to growing crop by severe gale as the reason for it.Should this turn out as bad as the meagre information at hand would leave it to be inferred, all previous calculations are likely to be upset, and the market materially strengthened.Some contracts for new have been made ai 25¢, October delivery.\u201d The Utica Herald says: \u2014* Conversation with a number of hop men on the Board of Trade here brought out the fact that as a rule hops are coming down ve light in different parts of the country.Almost all of the growers are disappointed, their yards yielding so much less than they had been estimated As an instance, one man with 25 pickers got only 16 boxes per day.Another with 45 pickers got ouly 25 boxes.\u201cWith the exception of the Humphrey hope, which are doing better than usual, there are few yards which are giving anyihing like the expected yield.Even with the increased acreage, most growers are getting smaller yields than last year, and the entire crop of New York State has been considerably muditied during the past few davs.Many claim that a fair estimate of the yield will be two-thirds of last year\u2019s crop.Dealers are trying to buy hops at 25¢ and less, bit they are said to meet with poor succe-.The universally light weight of hops already picked, and the scaly appearance of many samples, have stiffened the view «f growers materially.When some of the best yards of a locality are giving uly 30 boxes to the acre, and this is true of good many localities, growers very naturally feel nore confident of better prices.A fair and candid man informs us that Brookfield will not have more than two-r:.:vis of last year\u2019s crop.In the town of V:zona the yards are said to be black and =cunty,and the estimate is

from Denmark and other countries 96,122 oxen and bulls of the value of £1,940,015.Cows imported from Denmark and other countries numbered 37,780, valued at £742,586.The number of sheep and lambs received from Canada and theUnited Stateswas 77,775,and the value £180,671 ; from Germany, Holland, &c., 592,899 shocrfBid lambs, of the value ot £1,265,394.Tire dead meat (fresh) imported from the United States and other countries amounted to 456,190 cwts., and the valug was £1,303,423.In each case there was a large increase compared with the corresponding period of 1882.Millions of pounds sterling are sent out of Great Britain for meat supplies.John Swan & Son\u2019s weekly report, dated August 27, says: The supplies ob home-fed cattle, both in Edinburgh and Glasgow markets, have been smaller this week.Trade in the open market, at both places, was rather quieter, secondary descriptions being much more difficult to sell at prices altogether in favor of the buyer, and a clearancd of this a markets all through have been worse this week.For sheep and lambs.on account.of the worse trade in London and the Midland counties of England, prices were a shade lower for all classes.In Glasguw, the better descriptions mel à fairly good trade, but mid- diing and inferior lambs continue a drug, ab extremely unsatisfactory prices, a large nam- ber being left unsold.Foreign supplies for the week have been considerable, comprising 260 prime States bullocks, which met a better trade, at about 3) a head more money ; from Canada, about 80 cattle, trade for which was, on account of the restrictions, more ursalis- factory ; from Denmark and Sweden, about 150 cattle, principahyinferior Without oversupplies at any particular place, the trade is materially hampered by the confliciing re- strictionsof various localauthorities.Ginsgow has this weck scheduled Ireland and \u2018all counties in Scotland having connection wit that country which have not followed à similar course.These restrictions, therefore, to those engaged in the trade, are most nerpiex- ing, and the only solution of the difficulty would be that a \u2018central board for the three countries, directly defining the movement of animals, should \"be appointed, as it is quite apparent that different county loent authorities adopt retaliatory measures.At the various lamb markets\u2019 during the vuek prices have scarcely been so high.Store cattle are offering in small numbers and meet a very quiet trade.Both pigs and calves have been steady, at last weck\u2019s prices.The supplies for next week from abroad will be considerably smaller, consisting of about 400 Canadians and 270 States.With Ireland and various of the principal counties in Scotland closed by Glasgow, these will likely be marketed in the latter market next week.Best home-fed cattle, 10s 6d;

evening to a large audience, with Charlotte Thompson as Jane Eyre, and the performance given was onc of the best presented to a Montreal audience for some time.Thestory of Jane Eyre is too well known to need any extended relation of the plot of the play being given to our readers; several dramatized versions of the tale exist, all of which possess more or less merit.The version presented by Miss Thomp-on\u2019s company is a very good one indeed, and possesses merits of its own, whilst, differing somewhat from other versions in minordetails of an unimportant nature.\u201cJaneEyre,\u201d an abused aud neglected orphan, is looked down upon\u2019 by her aunt, who sends her to a charity school when quite young, where she sponds some years of her life.she then secures à position as governess at Thornfield Hall, Lord Rochester\u2019s family seat, and to her 1s entrusted the care of Adele, the young daughter of Lord Rochester\u2019s elder brother, whese wife has become a maniac and is * the mystery of the Hall.\u201d Jane Eyre\u2019s humble and noble nature, gains for her the love of Lord Rochester, who has been disappointed in his first love, his affianced bride, * the mystery of the Hall,\u201d having married his elder brother.\u201cJune Eyres\u201d haughty aunt, however, projects a marriage between Lord Rochester aud Lady Ingram, a lady in appearance but not in nature, and Jane Eyre as governess is subjected to much humiliation from her relatives, but in vain as Lord Rochester makes his love Known and claims the noble governess as his bride.The play is repleto with extremely interesting situations, which hold the attention of the audience to the fall of the curtain.Miss Charlotte Thompson filled the part of Jane Eyre with singular ability, her persona- tion ofthe high-minded and noble governess, a lady not only in appearance but in nature being extremely faithful, and her powerful and clever acting gained for Ier the frequent and well merited applause of the audience.Mr.George Learock as Lord Rochester displayed some very strong acting and gave very able support to the heroine of the play.Mr.Win.Yerance took the double art of Prof.Brockelhurst, Superintendent of wood School, and Achille De Leon, in a manner that deserves the greatest praise, his personation of the latter character, the eccentric guest of Thorntie!ld Hall, being especially excellent, while his frequent expressions of humor succeeded in keeping the audience in constant laughter.Miss Clara Threpp, as Adele, Lord Rochoster\u2019s ward, showed some very charming acting for one of her age.The rest of the support was excellent, Some of the scenes were extremely realistic, particularly the fire scene, where \u201cthe mystery of the hall\u201d?sets five to the room of Lord Rochester, who is rescued by Jane Eyre.At the conclusion of this act Miss Thompson and Mr.Learock were called before the curtain and received loud applause from the audience.The performance was, highly successful, and had Jane Eyre been presented for the whole week there can be little doubt that tlie Royal would have been crowded to overflowing every evening.\"There will be but two more opportunities of witnessing the play, this evening and to-morrow evening, and no theatre goer should fail to see Charlotte Thompson in this drama, which i8 certainly the most interesting of her repetotre.MILTON NOBLES.Next week, as already announced, Milton Nobles supported by a strong company will hold the boards at the Royal, in his great plays of The Pheenix and Interviews.The company is one of the oldest dramatic combinations in America, have appeared during eight consccutive years in the well-known dramatic specialities written by Milton Nobles, and with which his name is inseper- ably linked.On Monday evening next will be produced the melo-drama entitled The Phenix, in which Milton Nobles takes the leading part as Carroll Graves, a New York Bohemian.The play is spoken of as one of extreme interest, and from it has originated the popuiar line, * And the villain still pursued her.\u201d On the last three, nights of the week Interviews will be presented to the public.Queen\u2019s Hall.THE ALLEGHANIANS, The Alleghanians at the Queen\u2019s Hall are nightly growing more and more popular.There was a good attendance lastevening and the music, which they produced from 120 bells, was greatly appreciated and frequently applauded.This is their last week in Montreal, and all those who have not yet seen them should avail themselves of the opportunities which they are offered to-day and tomorrow of witnessing a performance which fully deserves the praise that has already been accorded it.À special performance for children will take piace on Saturday afters noon, and on Saturday evening the Alloghanlans will give their farewell performance.The Herald Employes Picnic.The second annual picnic of the employes of THE HERALD will take place on

Atlantic,\u201d says the Boston Herald, \u201cwho do not consider Miss Mary Anderson a Cushman or a Rachel ; but she is 3 much more beauti- | ful woman and better actress than England hassentus yet.And her countrymen will be prouder of her success than tho English people appear to be of Mrs.Langtry\u2019s moncy making here.\u201d The Herald critic, like \u201cRip Van Winkle,\u201d most have been asicep, for a century.Has he forgotten the late Adelaide Neilson, who Miss Mary Anderson will never succeed in reaching in either beauty or artistic ability, and as for Mrs.Langtry, when she has been on the stage as long as Mary, we fecl confident she will be her superior.She is that now in speaking and intelligently presenting the English language, in the minor stage details only she islacking.Go slow Herald, Boston is not the hub of all art on this continent, by any manner of means.rm tree at REST AND COMFORT, TO THE SUFFER \u2018 BROWN'S HOUSEHOLD PANACEA \u201d has no equal for

Mr.Robert Blckerdike, Prosident of the Lake St.Francis Navigation Co.The readers of THE HERALD have doubtless not forgotten the discussions which took place, some months ago, respecting the lease of the steamer S'.Francis to the Richelleu Company, when Mr.Senecal endeavored to control the affairs of the company by securing the majority of the shares of the company, nor will they have forgotten the manner in which the old directors fought inch by inch every attempt made to get thelr property from them, for the purpose of dolugaway with the opposition in the river trafic between this city and the town of Cornwall.The result of tho contest was that the views of the new directors were carried out,and an amalgamated board was formed.The old directors of the company decided to put into tangible form their appreciation of the services rendered by the president, Mr.Bickerdike, and in pursuance of this a depus tation met at Valleyficld yesterday, when Mr.Thomas Baird, of Durham, Ormstown, the Vice-President of the old board, presented Mr.Bickerdike with a valuable gold watch and chain.In doing so he sald they were met to do what was to him a work of great pleasure.At the last meeting of the old board, they had unanimously appointed Mr.Win Gils lespie and himself a committee to purchase andpresent toMr.Bickerdike a suitable expression of their appreciation of the valuable and prompt services he had rendered when placed in trying and difficult circumstances.The necessary amount was furnished by the directors, not a few ofthem.but by the whole of them, and it was now his good fortune to carry eut the wishes of the board by presenting Mr.Bickerdike with a mark of their esteem and of the way in which he had managed their affairs.He expressed the hope of the directors, in which ho cordially joined, that the recipient of the present might long be spared to wear it, and that he would bz blessed with health and prosperity.The watch, which was an 18-karat stop one, | bore the following inscription:\u2014 Presented to Robert Bickerdike, Pres : dent, by the Directors of the Lake St.: Francis Navigation Compuny,asa mark : of esteem and in recognition of valuable : services.February, 1883.Mr.Gillesple said ho heartily joined Mr.Baird in his folicitations to Mr.Bickerdike, who, he felt, would always be * up to time.\u201d Mr.Bickerdike said 1t afforded him most certainly a great deal of pleasure to be the recipient of this handsome gift.He might say he had more pleasure in recelving than they in giving.He would ever remember | and value the spirit with which they had worked together.He did not think that he was entitled to any more credit than the other directors, all of whom proved that thex were indeed flghting-men.He thanked them very sincerely for their handsome gift.The party then sat down to a very nice luncheon served by Mr.Larocque.Mr.Baird in the Chair, with Mr.Bickerdike, the guest of the day, on his right, and r.Plante, Mayor of Valleyfield, on his left.The following toasts were duly honored :\u2014 The Queen, the Governor-General and H.R.H.Princess Loulse ; The Mayor and Council of Valleytield, responded to by the Mayor; Our Guest, responded to by Mr.Bickerdike; Trade and Navigation, by Capt.Leslie; The Lakes, by Mr.John F.Nicholson, of Valleyfield; The Press, by Mr.Dunbar Browne, of the HERALD; The Secretary of the Company Mr.George H.Phillips, of Valleyfield.Mr.Browne having been voted into the Chair, a vote of thanks was moved and seconded to the Vice-President of the company, to which he replied, and then

settlement last spring ofthe competition for the Halifax Cup hasremoved a certain amount of zest from the cricketing arcna, the matches to be played here, as well as in New York and Boston, promise to be of espe:ial interest and importance.=The principal event of the season is the fix- Ture fur September 12th and 13th.All Philadelphia against the Unitad New York Eleven, which will be played at Nicetown, under the auspices of the Cricketers\u2019 Association.The New York team, we are assured, will be the strongest combination that has ever been gent from the metropolis; It will comprise professional talent as well as amnateur, and will undoubtedly make a strong bid for vic- ory.On Monday, September 2th, a \u201cCanadian weel\u2019?begins, when the I.Zingari will try conclusions successively with the Belmont, Merion, and Germantown, and endeavor to defeat one by one some of the clubs whose combined strength they have lately seen tested.The Pittsburg Eleven, which we belleve has been considerably strengthened since its last appearance here, completes the list of visitors to Philadelphia; tisey play the Philadelphia colts on September 10th and 1tth, and a picked eleven on September 7th und 8th on the Germantown grounds.The Girard, Germantown, and Bz2lmont complete the Halifax Cup series on Scptember Lith and 22nd, and October 13th; and return matches batween the Young America and Germantown, and Young Amecrica and Girard arc fixed for October 6th and 2th respectively.Visits to New York bythe Belmont.Merion, and Young America, and to Pittsburgh by the Young America are also on the tapis.Last, but by no means least, the proposed match between the International team, with the substitution of Dr.Ashbridge for Mr.J.G.Hubbard, should the latter be unable to.come on from Boston for the event, and an eleven of Philadelphia to be selected by Mr.D.S.Newhail, will excite the greatest interest ; indeed, it is already the principal topic of the cricket field.No dite has asyet been set, but there is very little doubt but that the match will be played soms time next month.From this cursory review of the list of fixtures, it may be seen that the fall season of 1883 will be by no means lacking in attractions.\u2014Ameri- can Cricketer.The Turf.PAROLE\u2019S EARNINGS.The following are the winnings of the celebrated old horse Parole since his debut on the turf in

English autumu handicaps promise to be as strong this year as ever.The number of entries are up to the average in all the events: \u2014The Cesarewitch, at two miles, two furlongs, and twenty-eight yards, received 111 subscriptions, which include, besides Eole Mr.J.R.Koene\u2019s Foxhall, Blue Glass, and Bolero; Mr.P.Lorillard\u2019s Pinafore, Lord Ellesmere\u2019s Wallenstein, Mr.Tom Cannon's Sachem, and Mr.T.F.Walton\u2019s Girofle, and his English horse, Mr.Pickwick.The French stables are also strongly represented, while the English lot includes the very best in the Kingdom.Among them are Barcaldine, Limestone, Petronel, Faugh-o-Ballagh, Shrewsbury, Border Minstrel, Victor Emanuel, Palermo, Fulmen, Macheath, Corrie Roy,and Thebais.The Cambridgeshire, 2 mile and 240 yards, has 137 subscriptions, which inelude, besides Eole, Foxhall, Bolero, and Blue Grass, Pinafore, Sachem, and Girofle, several bred in France, Germany and Hungary.The English lot is even stronger than in the Cesarewiteh, including as it does, St.Blaise, 1he winner of this year\u2019s Derby, and Shotover, the winner last year.The entries for the Great Rastern Handicap and & majority of the two-year-old handicaps are given.Mr.Lorillard\u2019s name appearing both in the First Nursery and the Second October Nursery as the nominator of Pontiac and Victrix, while for the Houghton Handicap over the T.Y.Con the last day of the season, at Newmarket, Mr.Keene has nominated Bolero.Athletic.SCOTTISII SPORTS IN AMERICA.The Scottish games given throughout the United States and Canada by the different Caledonian clubs and societies have, as a encral rule, been well attended this season.The earlier ones, which came off on the lst and 4th of July, gave much pleasure, and seemed to form a central rallying place for the residents of each section in which they were held.Those which succeeded them until the present time have enjoyed a full measure of success so far as public patronage is concerned, whilst the athletic records made at them have been higher than anywhere else.Albany and Philadelphia had each large gatherings, fully reprcsentative of the number of the Scottish population in each of them, and the management was such as to draw forth praise from every side.This week we have to record no fewer than five meetings at places so far distant from each other as Brooklyn, N.Y.; Erie, Pa.; Hamilton, Ont.; Montreal, P.Q., and Charlottetown, P.E.I.Each ofthese gatherings are reported as baving been largely attended by cannie Scots and admirers of the \u201cLand o\u2019 Cakes.\u201d This must be very encouraging to the members of these societies, for a good day at the games means, besides a pleasant meeting, a financial surplus, which will do much towards carrying on the general work during the winter.Thus gradually but surely we find these Scottish field days assuming greater importance in the community, And, as Seqtémen, we take pleasure in recording the fact\u2019 that thelr entire influeuce 1s of the most healthful description.The sports are virorous and manly, the spectators are orderly and happy, and there is an entire absence of that spirit of rowdv- ism which so often disgraces out-door meet- tings on this side of the Atlantic.\u2014Mail, * OBITUARY.| \u2014\u2014\u2014 / Death of Mr.E.C.Monk.The many friends of Mr.E.C.Monk, of the firm of

leading citizens was held at the City Club yesterday afternoon to consider the advisability of tendering a complimentary banquet to the distinguished statesman now in our midst\u2014the Earl of Carnarvon.Among those present were Sir Francis Hincks, Sir Alexander Galt, Messrs: Thomas Cramp, Gilbert Scott, John Molson, M.H.Gault, R.W.Thomas, W.H.Kerr Henry Lyman,J.H.Joseph, Richard White, W.Kinloch, W.J.Macmaster, .N.Benjamin and others.Sir Francis Hincks was requested to act as chairman and Mr.Mc- Gibbon as secretary.The chairman in opening the meeting said that Lord Carnarvon had a special claim upon their notice on account of his services In regard to the Confederation Act when he was secretary of state, Whatever people might think now of Confederation, it was admitted by all that no one could have exerted himself in this matter more than Lord Carnarvon, therefore à public expression of their regard was peculiarly appropriate.Lord Curnarvon had somewhat altered his plans and would return- to the city after visiting Toronto and Niagara.Consequently he proposed that the banquet should be given on the 18th inst.Sir Alexander Galt,in seconding the motion, said that he tully concurred in the remarks of Sir Francis Hicks, and thought that it was desirable that the meeting should be a representative one and not a party affair.The leading statesmen of both sides of politics and both nationalities should be asked to be present, After som\u201d discussion Slr Francis Hineks and Sir A.T Galt, were_ requested to wait upon Lord Carnarvon and formally request his attendance on the 18th inst., and to report to an adjourned meeting to be held this afternoon.All the Ladies and Children should ats tend the Saturday Matince of \u2018The Romany Rye.\u201d CRIMINAL

it outside ready to drive away, when he was alarmed by some persons passing and decamped.He was arrested while crossing the ferry and when brought up yesterday was fully remanded by the magistrate to the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench or trial.Recorder\u2019s Court.#There was a light morning\u2019s work at the above Court yesterday.Pierre Brillon dit Lapierre, was charged with assault, and the case

right and which would be of hardly any value to her, even if firmly established upon it, itis to be hoped the more sober-minded of the French people will reflect on the probable consequences of the conflict into which their Government has been urging them.A war with China is no longer the holiday pastime that it seemed to be a few years ago, for no nation has improved more than the Chinese in the art of War, and whatever can be done with improved weapons and better discipline they may fairly hope to achieve.In former wars with China the most that was ever attempted was to attack the Chinese ports and to make incursions into the country within easy reach of the fleet.This kind of warfare can now no longer be safely indulged in, for the Chinese have discarded their old junks and employ vessels of European construction armed with European guns.For a number of years China has possessed a considerable fleet of composite gunboats, and in 1876 a number of small wooden gunboats were built in England for the Chinese.They were followzd in 1879 and 1880 by seven steel gunboats, all constructed on the same design with a displacement of 450 tons, engines of 300 horse-power and a speed of 9 knots, drawing only 8 feet of water.Four of them carry each a 274 ton gun, and the other three 38 ton guns, all worked by hydraulic power.Some people have gone \u2018so far as to say that two or three of these gunboats well handled would be a match for any ironclad.This is probably an exaggerated view of their merits, but it is certain that no large unarmored wooden vessels could cope with them in coast warfare, China, however, is not without ironclads.In 1881 two steelfvessels, styled ram-cruisers, were constructed in England and sent out to the Chinese Government.Their displacement is 1,350 tons, they have engines of 2,600 horse-power and are each armed with two 26 ton breechloading guns, four 40-pounder and two 9-pounder breech-loading guns; two Nordenfeldts and four Gatlings.A new ironclad for the Chinese Government was launched at Stettin in 1881 and another in 1882.Altogether the Chinese have about 60 vessels in their navy, mounting about 300 guns, so that their force is by no means to be despised.It will take a much stronger fleet than the French now have in Chinese waters to attack the Chinese ports with any chance of success, In Tonquin the French will have to stand on the defensive, a species of warfare in which they do not generally succeed.They will have to maintain themselves in a very unhealthy country against an enemy which, if not very skilful is numerous and active.The climate is a most trying one to European constitutions and already the mortality among the unseasoned French soldiers has been very great.Many of these soldiers are said to be mere boys, unfit for an ordinary European campaign, much less an Asiatic one, most of them being mere conscripts.Within a few days after their arrival at Saigon one-fifth of them were down with fever.These, however, are not the only dangers which the French will have to face in their conflict with China, The whole civilized world is interested in the trade of that country, and a blockade of the Chinese ports would be regarded with great disfavor by all European nations, but more especially by England and Germany.The Chinese, it is said, count on the interference of England in the quarrel, in case ef a war with France, and, whether this view is correct or not, it is certain that it finds support in some English journals.France certainly is, in this Eastern business, playing most effectually into the hands of her enemies, and the grim German Chancellor must chuckle when he thinks how the Republic is discrediting and weakening itself in Furope by its Quixotic schemes in the East, for the acquisition of territory which it cannot use to advantage and for {the planting of colonies which it never will be able to maintain.The feeling in France is by no means TILE MONTREAL HERAL unanimous in regard to the present schemes of the Government in the East, and some of the newspapers strongly protest against them.The France says that in face of the grave events which are springing up independently of the action of France, slie oucht to have a definite attitude and line of policy abroad.Ministerial indifference in such a matter would be more than weakness ; it would be downright treason.A limit must be set to the extravagant aims entertained in some circles for a colonial policy, which, in the Far East, blindly rushed into all sorts of perils without knowing or even studying them.The Cabinet, adds the writer, has less information on the affairs of Tonquin than the English newspapers, but it can no longer be doubted that the evident hostility of China has condemned rance to efforts altogether out of proportion to the protection of her interests, and that Indo-China is a whirlpool in which France is about to see her men and money engulphed.The Justice strongly protests against the extension of the Tonquin expedition to Annam.By quotations from M.Challe- mel-Lacour\u2019s speeches during the recent session the Justice once more shows that the Minister for Foreign Affairs positively assured Parliament that the campaign would be limited to the Red River delta, and that, should any unforeseen difficulty arise, the two Houses would themselves consider the question.\u201cAnd now,\u201d exclaims the Justice, \u201c we are about to bombard the capital of Aunam, situated from 100 to 150 leagues from Lower Tonquin, without even declaring war.On July 12 we warmly congratulated the Minister on his clear utterance, and said, \u2018They have promised not to begin the Tunisian business over again.\u2019 Are they not doing so now?It is always the policy of remote expeditions.\u201d The tone of many of the other French papers received by the last mail is similar.The Lanterne observes: \u2014 \u201c France is being dragged into a bellicose adventure, of which no one can predict tie end or whereit may lead ue, Eventually they [the Ministry] will come before the Chamber asking it to sanction this adventure and to vote credits which it will be impossible to refuse ; for once having compromised the honor of our flag and having shed our soldiers\u2019 blood, all discussion is at an end.One cannot leave a French army in foreign countries without money and without help.\u201d The Paris Bourse, a financial jourual, remarks :\u2014 - The absence of telegraphic communication is making itself felt, and, as many operators see matters in a very gloomy light, Government is suspected of keeping something back.Was it not said the other day that M.Tricou\u2019s departure from Pakin was kept secret for electoral purposes ?And now it turns out that M.Tricou has never been to Pekin, which, of course, precludes the possibility of his having ever left it.\u201d The Marseillaise remarks :\u2014 ¢ Who will enlighten the alarmed country on the serious complications and dangers which are likely to arise out of the Tonquin expedition, undertaken and conducted adventurously by a Ministry as ¢ light-hearted\u2019 as Emile Ollivier ?\u201d The Petit Parisien exclaims :\u2014 \u201c We are led blindfold through a series of adventures in Tunis, Tonquin and Madagascar ; and we must allow them to lead us without understanding the.reason while understanding it too well.\u201d THE NEW ENGLISH BANKRUPICY ACT.One ofthe most important measures passed at the recent session of the Imperial Parliament was the Bankruptey Act.Bankruptcy legislation has rarely been satisfactory, and every new measure on this subject must be regarded as, to a large extent, experimental, but it is believed that this last attempt to reconcile conflicting interests and do justice to both parties will come nearer to what is wanted by the mercantile classes than any act which has yet been passed.Its provisions are well worthy of study by Canadian legislators and business men.According to the summary of the new act given by the London Economist all proceedings under it will be commenced by a petition to the Court.A petition may be presented either by a creditor or by the debtor himself ; and it will lead eventually to one of two results, namely either a composition or scheme of arrangement, or bankruptcy proper.In other words, there will be one mode of entrance into legal insolvency, while there will be two modes of exit.No debtor will be allowed to compound or arrange with his creditors, or to get his discharge in bankruptcy until he has passed a public examination.This will be a turnstile through which everyone must pass.The first order made on a petition will be what is called a receiving order.The effect of this order will be, not to divest the debtor of his property, as is done by an adjudication, but to put an officer of the Board of Trade, to be called the Official Receiver, in temporary charge of the property, with all the powers of a receiver and manager appointed by the High Court.There will be one or more official receivers attached to.each Court having bank- rupcy jurisdiction, It will be the duty of the OfficialÿReceiver, on the one hand, to investigate the conduct and dealings of the debtor.and, on the other hand, to to protect the estate until the creditors have had time to meet and take action for themselves.Provision is also made that in exceptional cases the Official Receiver may temporarily appoint a special manager to carry onfa pending business.Assoon as possible after a receiving order is made, the debtor must furnish the Official Receiver with a statement of his affairs, and any other required information.The Official Receiver will summon and preside at the first meeting of creditors.At that meeting, or an adjournment thereof, the creditors will determine what course the insolvenc y shall \u2018take ; whether a composition or scheme shall be accepted, or whether the debtor | As Book-keeper or shall be adjudged bankrupt.If the creditors resolve to accept a composition or scheme of arrangement, it will be only one step towards that result.The action of tlie first meeting will have to be approved at a subsequent meeting by a majority in number of the creditors representing three-fourths in value of all the creditors who have proved.This confirmatory meeting is not to he held until the public examination of the debtor is concluded.When the composition or scheme has been confirmed by the creditors the sanction of the Court will still be required.The Court, before giving its sanction, will hear the report of the Oflicial Receiver on the conduct of the debtor, and will have to be satisfied that the debtor has not been guilty of misconduct, and that the composition or scheme is for the interest of the general body of creditors.If the creditors resolve that the debtor be adjudicated bankrupt, or if the negotiations for a composition or scheme fall through, the debtor will be forthwith adjudicated bankrupt, and thereunon his property will vest in a trustee, who will be appointed by the creditors.The Board of Trade will have a right of veto on the appointment, and will in all cases require the trustee to give security.The Board of Trade will also audit Lis accounts, and exercise a general supervision over his conduct in the interest of the creditors.The remuneration of the trustee will be fixed by the creditors, but in all cases it must be in the nature of a commission or percentage calculated in part on the amount realised, and in part on the amount distributed in dividends.The powers and duties of a trustee as regards realising the estate and distributing the proceeds will be much the sama as under the present Act.When a trustee is appointed, the duties of the Official Receiver relating to the estate will cease, except that during any temporary vacancy in the office he will act as trustee, but he will still be concerned with the conduct of the bankrupt.A bankrupt may at any time apply for his discharge, but the applica- examination is concluded.Under the Act 0f 1869 bankrupts usually do not take take the trouble to apply for a discharge, but under the new Act the position of an undischarged bankrupt will not be so enviable as it now is.An undischarged bankrupt who obtains credit from any person to an extent exceeding £20 without informing that person of his status will be guilty of a misdemeanor, and be liable to be punished accordingly.When the bankrupt applies for his discharge the Court will have to consider the Official Receiver\u2019s report on his conduct, as well as hearing any objections which the creditors mag urge.If it appears that the bankrupt has been guilty of any misdemeanor under the Debtor's Act, 1869, his discharge will be refused.If he has been guilty of any other serious miscon- duct\u2014and the Act gives a list of acts constituting such misconduct\u2014 the Court may either refuse or suspend his discharge, or make it conditional.A TeE New York Evening Post has the | following pungent remarks on the highway robbery in Massachusetts, reported in our despatches of yesterday :\u2014¢ A case of highway robbery of the most approved Western pattern is reported from the immediate vicinity of Boston.A stage coach, filled with ladies and gentlemen, was returning from Nantasket Beachthe Coney Island of Boston\u2014on Monday night, when a gang of twenty-five or thirty robbers sprang out of the woods, in a lonely spot, seized?the horses\u2019 heads: held a pistol at the head of the driver, and then \u201cwent through\u201d the passengers.One gentleman had his clothes badly torn and his nose broken, and others of the party were more or less;bruised by contact with the ruffians.All the watches, jewelry, and money in the party were taken, and the passengers reached their destination in a very badly demoralized and depleted condition.This, in the peaceful State of Massachusetts, within a few miles of Boston, at the very opening of a Foreign Exhibition which was organized to show the world the advanced condition of Boston civilization, is most extraordinary.If General Butler were not Governor, what a campaigu issue he could make of it, as showing the lax condition of public authority in the State.\u201d > WE publish elsewhere an interesting account of the North-West from a staff correspondent of the Chicago Tribune.\u2018As the testimony of a foreigner in regard to the great capabilities

by Messrs.Chapleau, Morcier, Mousseau, Descarries, Beaubien, &¢.For some months the eyes of the people of Canada, and of this Province in particular, have been turned to the county of Jacques Cartier, where issues were In process of contestation calculated to be of the most vital importance to every one.The interest has been the greater owing tu Mr.Mousseau\u2019s delay in declaring his intentions and in replying to the grave accusations made against himself and his administration.Soon after his election was annnlled he went to St.Laurent, where there was a political bout between him and his adversaries, since which time he has manifested a desire to let matters take their own course until something turned up, either in the shape of a constituency which it would be less difficult to carry, or a more favorable feeling towards him in Jacques Cartier itself.A few days since, however, a meeting was called to be held yesterday at St.Laurent in his interest, at which it was understood would be triumphantly refuted all the © slanders\u201d which had been circulated respecting him and his predecessor in the Premiership.This assembly was consequently looked forward to as being one of THE MOST IMPORTANT that has ever been held since Confederation accorded special provincial administration.This was because of the serious accusations against Mr.Mousseau and his predecessor and of other questions that, to a great extent of public importance, had assumed very much of a personal aspect.So much, indeed, was thought of the day\u2019s controversy, that special trips were inaugurated from various parts of the province.All the roads from the city were crowded from an early hour with loadel vehicles hurrying to the place of meeting, while numbers walked the whole distance.There were several large expresses with parties of pessengers, four or five of which were said to have been dispatched under the auspices of Mr.J.B.Emond, the ticket for which\u2014a blue card bore the words: \u201c Admettez le porteur\u201d Between 4,000 and 5,000 people gathered in front of the church yesterday torenoon, where a commodious platform had been erected for the speakers under the direction of Mr.Lapointe.Among tne gentlemen present were to be seen Hon.Messrs.Chapleau, Mousseau, Mercier, Beaubien, Archambault,Wurtele, Boucher de la Bruere, W.W.Lynch, Trudel,Jean Blanchet,Prudhomme, D.A.Ross, Bellerose, Latlanime, Marchand, Messrs.White, Girouard, Benoit, Tasse, Bergeron, Daoust, and Ouimet, M's.P., Messrs.Lavallee, Martel, Robillard, Mc- Shane, Caron, Cassavant, Leduc, Nantel, Gaboury, | Desjardins, Archambault, M\u2019s.P.P., Messrs.Tarte, LeBlanc, Tellier, Houde, Bisson, Champagne, former members of one or other of the Parliaments, and Messrs.Decarries, Bastien, Lareau, Dionne, Quebec; A.O.l.Beauchemin, St.Hyacinthe : Dr.DexRosiers, Hyacinthe Charleboie,\u2014Charlebois, contractor, Que bec; Andrew Dawes, Lachine ; Alfred Perry, Ald.Roy, Beausoleil, Ald.Robert,

Lemay, Baptiste Emond, JOSEPH BEEF, ETC.Hon.Messrs.Chapleau and Moussean arrived the previous evening and were the uests of Dr.Tasse.Noon was the time xed for the commencement of proceedings, but it was one o\u2019clock before anything was done, when Mr.Mousseau nominated Mr.Girouard, M.P.for the county, as the presiding officer.Hon.Mr.Mercier objected, insisting that the proper parties were either the Mayor of the Parish, Mr.Belanger, or Mr.Charette, the Mayor of the County.Now ensued a hubbub, cries coming from all sides for each of those gentlenien.; Mr.Mousseau insisted on the choice of Mr.Girouard, who had had much experience in carrying out the rules of order and debate.(Cries of ¢ Girouard !\u201d) Mr.Mercier said it was customary that on occasions like the present the Mayor should preside, and 1t was only an act of courtesy to Jo the same on this occasion, He further objected that Mr, Girouard was à political friend of Mr.Mousseau.Mr.Mousseau averred that he had called the meeting, and he desired Mr.Girouard to preside.(Cries of\u2018 Belanger.\u201d\u201d) Mr.Chapleau appeared to be unfavorable to th2 position taken by the Provincial Premier.Mr, Girouard declared that he could not consent to preside unless the meetinz were unanimous in choosing him.If they selected Mr.Belanger, be felt that he would be a man worthy of their choice.By this time it was discovered that the position occupied by the platform was a ad one.A STRONG WIND BLOWING across it and seriously interfering with the speakers.The platform was consequently removed toa more sheltered place, an operation which consumed almost a half hour of valuable time.Everything Leing arranged with the exception of a chairman, | Mr.Chapleau said it was useless any | longer to discuss the chairmanship, thereby delaying the meeting.Some one must preside.If Mr.Girouard were here let either he or Mr.Belanger be appointed.Mr.Beaubien said he would be happy to accept Mr.Belanger, the Mayor of the arish, otherwise \u201che shouid prefer the ayer of the county.; n the recommendation of Mr.Mercier, it was at length decided to put the question of the chairmanship to the vote of those present.Mr.Chapleau then called for & show of hands for Mr.Girouard.Mr.Beaubien called for the votes for Mr.Belanger.; It was, however, impossible to discover which had the most votes and a joint chairmanship was then proposed ; but neither of the gentlemen could be fonnd.Eventually it was agreed that the meeting should be under the joint conduct of Messrs.Chapleau and Mercier.Meantime the platform which had been considerably damaged by its removal had been crowded with people and began to threaten to fall, and a few more naily were driven in to secure it.A number of people who had business upon it were driven off while all, except those who were to speak and the reporters, were requested to leave; but the number of reporters now became something frightful, aad the old letters and pencils which were produced was most astonishing.And 80 a vast number remained to THE SERIOLS INCONVENIENCE of those who had real work to do.| A controversy ensued as to the time and order of speaking, which caused additional delay.lt was resolved eventually that + > \u2014 : .THE MONTREAL HERALD, AND DAILY COMMERCIAL, GAZETTE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 each side should have two hours and a half to speak, Mr.Chapleau to commence, followed by Mr.Descarries, Mr.Mousseau and Mr.Mercier.A few minutes before two o'clock : Mr.Chaplean took the stand.He was warmly received.He said that he had come here in reply to au invitation from the electors of St.Laurent.He had come here not to talk Federal politics, as had been stated, but to deal with those of a Provincial character.If he had not come, it would have been stated, as it had been before, thut he was afraid to come.Ie had been attacked when not here to reply ; but, if any one desired to attack him, let them do so now, if not they showed their cowardice.Referring to the first election for this county, Jast year of Mr.Mousseau he observed that he had been returned by a majority of 400.What was the spectacle to-day presented?Mr.Mousseau had been supported by Mr.Mercier.Was not Mr.Mousseau the Mr.Mousseau who was last year returned ?Mr, Laflamme had written a letter APPROVING OF HIS CANDIDATURE, yet he was now his bitter opponent.Why was this ?Messrs.Trudel and Bellerose had acted in the same manner.Was it Mr.Mousseau or these gentlemen who had changed their views ?It was a scandal to see Mr.Laflamme, the counsel of Guibord, give the fraternal kiss to Mr.Trudel, the great defender of the Catholic Church.Was the latter going to confess him?Mr, Mousseau having been returned by a large majority, it was evident that the electors favored his election.If in case a supporter of the honprable gentleman, led away by enthusiasm, had overstepped the bounds of the :aw, that was no reason why Mr.Mercier and his friends should desire to overlook the wish of the electors and deprive Lim of the proud position to which they had assigned him as their representative.The gentlemen of whoin he had spoken had acted the weathercock, but he did not think the gentlemen before him who were | the most interested, occupied that position.There was a mystery and he would tell them all about it.A year ago Mr.Mercier had the same ambitionsthat he had to-day.It was not with him, unfortunately, a question of politics.The people had been woefully deceived; they had been taught to regard him (Mr.Chapleau) as a thief, a liar, and a perjurer.His opponerts had no respect for themselves or the public men ot the country, and, therefore, could not respect their opponents.Messrs.Trudel and Laflamme could not possibly make an alliance for the sake of country, for between them there was nothing in common.The position was today ridiculous.There were four parties in the province : the true Liberais and Conservatives, the \u2018\u2018 Castors \u201d and the \u201cé tittle people,\u201d among the Liberals who tried to inake themselves felt through Le Temps.The castors\u201d who were against him were largely composed of disappointed ambitions hypocrites.They desired to destroy the Conservative party to gratify their own desires.Unlike the animals whose name they bore they were neither industrious nor useful.They wanted larger wages than they could earn and begrudged refunding any.The party was composed of a number of disappointed politicians who were stimulated by nothing\u2019 but ambition and jealousy.They were parasites in the political world doing nothing for their existence ; like the beaver they gnawed at the foundations of what was in their way, with a view to destroy it and establish themselves.But today \u201cCastor \u201d stock was very low.Like the beaver all that was any good about them was their skin and that did not appear to be worth much now.Who composed the gentlemen of Le Temps party?One of them, Mr.Marchand, its editor, had been compelled to eay about one affair which he had decried that the worst which could be said against it was that it was an error of judgment.Another was ex-Minister Mercier, a man who had over lim the fascination for power.He had desired to form a government, and because he could no: do so had wanted to enter a coalition with Mr.Mousseau.If Mr.Mousseau had taken him in he would unquestionably have been singing his praises to-day on this very plattorm.He had contested Mr.Mousseau\u2019s election because he would not take him into his government, and for that very reason he had founded Le Temps.For the last two years he had been LIVING ON CONTESTED ELECTIONS, and gained enormous sums for most reprehensible acts in connection with them.Were the electors content that a man like this.should obstruct the Government which was in power, and for him were they prepared to change their politics ?He admitted that the position of affairs in the province was sufficiently grave.Mr.Trudet had, in a most cowardly manner, left his party, had deceived the clergy and the people, and had sown divisions among them.If the Canadians allowed themselves to be cajaled and divided, it would give grounds for the statements of their enemies that they were not fit to govern.For the first time in the history of the country politics had been introduced amongst the clergy by L\u2019Etendard, which constituted the greatest danger to the French-Canadian nationality since the conquest.L\u2019Etenard had deceived the people under the cloak of reli- pion.There were two things of which rench Canadians had to be jealous : their religion and nationality which they must preserve.Mr.Trudel had tried to deceive the clergy and capitalists also as to the object of his paper and the necessity for ity existence.Wile pretending that his paper had been established for the advancement of faith, charity and religion, Mr.Trude! had gone right into politics.The present was the occasion of the gravest danger.After all, with what had Mr.Mousseau been reproached ?It was said he had improperly sulit the railway.For two years the disposition of the railway had been discussed.Bgfore Mr.Senecal hal dreamed of buying the railway he (Mr.Chapleau) had consulted Sir John Macdonald and Sir Hector Langevin.He had asked them either to buy it or sanction its sale.He had pointed out that it ought to be a link in the Canadian Pacific system and had finally sold it for $8,000,000, a sum with which Mr.Joly had expressed his satisfaction, as also did Mr.Robertson.He had sold the road for tiat sum save and except the cost of the completed work that had not been paid for.Mr.Mercier had not been present in the House to VOTE AGAINST THE SALE, of which he now so much complained, excusing himself by saying he had his own business to attend to, and could not always be there.He went on to enumerate the occasions on Which he alleged that Mr.Mercier had neglected his duty.On the occasion of Mr.Mousseau\u2019s election in Bagot in 1878, Mr.Mercier had condemned him for being absent on several occasions from the House at elections, declaring that he should he present all the session to vote on all questions.Yet this Mr.Mercier, who had neglected his duties, declared that the Government had mal- administered the railway.This railway question was the principal plante in the Castor\u201d platform.He declared that the remission to the city of Quebec of $200,000 of its railway subscription had been initiated by Mr.Joly.Ile (Mr.Chapleau) had said to them \u2018 ifthey would remit the claims against the Government the Government would withdraw their claims against that city and with respect to the land required for the railway would do the same as Mr.Joly has promised.seau had changed the contract.Messrs convention of August, 1882.stated that he would like to see matters arranged.The Opposition, instead of DISCUSSING FAIRLY AND SQUARELY ruin while he, his friends and Mr.Senecal were rolling in their millions.He spoke at present in front of the church and he now swore on his honor asa public man that he never directly or indirectly took one sou from the people or the province.He had neither compromised himself nor his family, at the public expense.He would say in all conscience that he had married into a rich family and had succeeded in investments of his own money in property in Montreal.Was it not a shame to follow a public man with scandals and insults of this kind?Was that politics or principle, or ¥as it worthy of the people as Canadians ?As concerned Mr.Mousseau, rather than hound him in this way they should say that he was an honest man and a good Catholic, but instead of that he was maligned and traduced.There was upon the platform one of his old friends (Mr.Bellerose) who had attacked him for his speech in New York.Were it not for the nature of his attack he should never have answered him.He had charged that he, Mr.Chapleau, had entered the Federal Government in opposition to the wishes of his party.If he were accused he was here to listen to the accusations.If his adversaries had anything to say let them say it.He had no fear of them.Had he fear, he would not have been prepared to speak the first to-day.All he wanted was A FEW WORDS OF DEFENCE.He had never sought a coalition with other him, desiring that he (Mr.Chapleau) at the head of the Conservative party.He RESPECTED HIS ADVERSARIES, if they had the convictions'of honest fen, side were only unitel to destroy.It was very easy to criticize, but it was not so easy reat Canadian patriot, Sir George E.Sartier.He was calumniated and charged was far differently appreciated.And so soughtyto belittle and discredit.He con- seau to the people of Jacques Cartier.Mr.Mercier said he had come here to- and defend his friends and the Liberal he had got up he (Mr.Mercier) considered honest.Chaplean had spoken of the Castors, Mrof things before the church.He

parties, but had asked all men of good principles to unite ; nevertheless, he proposed to be at the head of the party.He did not wish to say any harm of Mz.Descaries, but he had before left the Quebec

controversy, he said that to answer Mr.Chapleau who had just sat down because he considered he had condemned 4 policy which 1 r.Marchand and himself; but not a word and at the hustings he was

lived upon the interest of his debts.He had said that he, Mr.Mercier, had been were political That was of conrse'not an insult, and to dec'are that the Liberals were corrupt was not an insult

vote for a big man of experience.The Liberal party did not measure brains by physique.Mr.Mousseau, the chief of the Conservative party, who had been sent for from Ottawa, had not, it was manifest, succeeded in rallying 1t ; but as concerned the Liberals it had been shown that when it became necessary that the great interests of the Province be protected the Liberals rallied.They were not thieves, and the bad men whom they had denounced as without principle knew that without the assistance of the Liberals last year Mr.Mousseau would have been beaten.He [Mr.Mercier] had no fear of Mr.Chapleau.An honest man need never fear another honest man.But he charged that Mr.Chapleau had betrayed the interests of the country and had conducted himself as a traitor.Mr.Mousseau might laugh as he had done.He had laughed befure and had said \u2018¢ WE WILL REPLY BY THE VOTES of the members.\u201d He would tell him that sooner there would be a reply by the votes of the electors who wanted to know whether or not the Government had done their duty.He would tell them that they had utterly failed in their promises.Mr.Mercier continued to speak of the transactions in the sale of the Provincial Railway, which had been disposed of ostensibly to ut an end to an era of deficits and oans; yet since the sale Mr.Chapleau had voted a loan of three millions, while Mr.Mousseau had voted a loan of $500, 000.By reference to the public accounts and other statements, Me.Mercier showed that Mr.Mousseau had paid over $300,000 for works on the railway, after the date of the contract of sale, while the remissions in the price of the North Shore Railway had amounted to $357,000.That might be politics, but it was the, ruin of the province, He closely criticized Mr.Mousseau\u2019s civil service reforms, pointing out that gross injustices had been committed, and produced a statement of figures gathered from the - public accounts, to which Mr.Chapleau objected as \u2014 incorrect when he referred to each item in the book, and handing it to the Secretary of State, \"said, amid much cheering mn the audience, * Read Mr.Chapleaun, if you please I\u201d Mr.Mercier made an exhaustive REVIEW

elections.Mr.Mousseau, you are great and fat.If you and Mr, Senecal are well to do it is none of my busiress ; but save the Province.I further say to the electors of St.Hyacinthe, if you are not

you are satisfied with what I have said vote against Mr.Mousseau.I don\u2019t ask the Liberals specially to vote against him, but 1 call on all to do their duty as honest men.\u201d Mr.Mousseau followed at length, REITERATING THE CHARGES against Mr.Mercier of seeking to enter the Cabinet with him.; Messrs.Descarries, Bergeron and Beaubien followed, the meeting concluding-with a rousing speech from Mr.Beaubien, and a reply by Mr.Chapleau.The meeting was manifestly in majority in favor of Mr.Descarries.Messrs.Trudel and Descarries also addressed the electors from Gosselin\u2019s

Rink\u2014A Fine Display.The secqund annual exhibition of the Dog Fanciers\u2019 Assoclation of Montreal commenced yesterday at the Victoria Skating Rink, and certainly was the finest yet held under the auspices of this Associati«n, both in the number of entries and the quality of the exhibits.\u2018The Association is, it might be said, but in its infancy, having been formed only a ycar ago last March, but it has achieved great success sinco its formation.The first show under.the auspices of the Association was held in the Crystal Rink last September, and proved in every particular a very successful affalr.The prosent show is in the opinion of ali an even better one than the first.There are nearly five hundred entries, including many from the United States and Western Canada.The exhihition is conducted on the English bench show system, and a large number of champion winners in other bench shuws are on exhibition, Among the best outside exhibits are those of Dr.J.8.Nevin, of London, Ont.; D.Shea, of London, Ont.; J.G.Brown, Quebec, and Messrs.John A.Thayer & Bro., or Lancaster, Mass., who show some very fine stock.The rincipal Montreal exhibitors are Messrs.Holdbrook, J.A.Campbell, Geo, Jordan, and others.The exhibits of greyhounds, pointers, setters, collies, Newfoundiands, Yorkshire and skye terriers, black and tan, Irish setters &c., are very fine.Some very choice bull dogs are shown hy the Messrs.Thayer, of Lancaster, Mass., no less than six of which are champion stock.The show was opened to the public at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, and there was a good attendance during the day.The judges were early at work and below is given the prize list, as completed up to last night.The show will remain open on Friday and Saturday, and certainly all who take an interest in the canine species should not fail to pay it a visit.PRIZE LIST.The following is the prize list :\u2014 FOX HOUNDS\u2014DOGS.lat, Benjamin Higgins\u2019 Jumboo nd,

woman, and child in_ whose heart true affection finds lodgement.Having passed within the portal of man and womanhood, how often thought re-opens the gateway of memory, and the panorama of the \u201c ola\u201d homestead with its many endearing surroundings is spread before us in life-like reality.It is not the lot of man especially, to remain among the scenes of boyhood, and if in later life he has established his own home, business necessarily calls him more or less frequently abroad; and at such times, it should prove his first purpose to surround himselé with comforts as homelike as possible.If visiting the great metropolls of the New World, he can find such surroudings at the Grand Union Hotel [opposite the Grand \u2018Central Depot], which, with its 600 rooms at $1,\u201d and upwards per day; its vunexcelled Restaurant, Cafe, Lunch and Wine rooms; its strictly first-class attendance ; its moderate charges with no carriage hire, nor expense for trahsfer of baggage to and from Grand Central Depot, renders the Grand Unlon so immensely popular, so thoroughly homelike, that thousands on entering its portals silently exclaim :(\u2014 ¢* Mid pleasures and palaces, though I may roam As on this fair earth, I continue to dwell, There\u2019s no place that seems, so much like ome, As does that well-known Grand Union Hotel.\u201d MOTHERS !

and 8arnia\u2014was composed of 14,000 bushels of corn and 50 car loads of flour for foreign shipment from Minnecapolis by the Grand Frank Railway, and four car loads of wool for Boston.But if the Canadians can carry the products of the North-West cheaper than our own people, the difference adds just so inueh to the profits of eur producers.LAKE SUPERIOR TO WINNIPEG.Port Arthur is some five miles from Fort William at the mouth of the Kiministiquia River, once the shipping point of the Hudson Bay Company, up that river and through Rainy Lake, the Lake of the Woods, and various watercourses to the Far North-West.Fifty years ago it was a place of much importance.The old fort and other buildings are falling into decay.It was at first proposed as the Lake Superior terminus of the Canada Pacific Railway, but Port Arthur, directly on the vay, was wisely selected.Forty miles of it eastward along.the shore are already completed.Port Arthur is pleasantly situated on a lateau sloping gently down to the lake.e saw some gardens filled with vege tables and a field of oats, showing that the climate did not forbid successful grain culture.The railway for 430 wiles to Winnipeg winds around among an endless succession of knobs and ridges, underlaid mostly by primeval rocks, ~The ridges, vallev~ and are still deusely covered Ly pine swamps and arch (tamarack) trees, though Uuwndreds Of thousands vf them have been used by the builders of the road for ties and timbers west of Winnipeg, where the treeless country extends for more than 800 miles to the Rocky Mountaine.The only place of any cousi\u2018lerable importance between the lake and Winnipeg 1s Rat Portage, at the foot of the Lake of the Woods.Vast and valuable timber districts on both sides of that lake, Rainy Lake and river, and other watercourses find an outlet here and give the town a large and profitable business.Tle lakes are about countless, for one is scarcely for half an hour out of sight of them.This part of the Dominion can hardly ever become a prosperous agricultural country, but its timber will always Le wanted.WINNIPEG.Here we are at the Capital of the pros- erous, pushing Province of Munitotaur short stay was made most pleasant by the very polite attentions of our excellent Consul, Col.James W.Tavlor, and N.F.Hagel, Esq., barrister, of Winnipez.Since 1871 and 1879, when 1t was our good fortune to visit it, the city has grown immensely.Where then was open prairie are now large stores filled with all kinds of goods ; there are elegant residences and all the evidences of wealth and prosperity.Bridges span the Red and Assiniboinethen only to be crossed by rickety old scows\u2014and scores of railway trains arrive and depart daily east, west and south, The followers of Lord Selkirk through Hudson\u2019s Bay in 1811 and the denizens of old Fort Garry, could they wake up, would stand aghast, confounded at the sight._ Starting west from Winnipeg the morning of the 23rd, by the introduction of United States Consul Col.James W.Taylor, we were invited to the hospitalities of his private car by Senator R.B.Landon, of Minneapolis.He and lis associates were the contractors, who built most of the road west of Winnipeg, They gave our Canadian neighbors a splendid specimen of Yankee enterprise.Starting at Oak Lake, 165 miles west of Winnipeg, the lst of May, 1882,they had completed 420 miles by the close of the year ; and this year to the 15th August they had added 260 miles more\u2014making in all, with sidings, 720 miles\u2014thus opening the road 845 miles west of Winnipeg, and 1,240 miles west of Lake Superior.They also put up all the bridges, that over the South Sasketchewan being 1,000 feet long and forty feet high.THE COUNTRY for this long stretch of 845 miles to Calgary is treeless, and very similar in ap- earance to our own between the Missouri iver and the Rocky Mountains, with the exception that therollingridges areshorter, and often lie across the pathway of the road.| While the grades are more uneven than on our roads they seldom exceed thirty or forty feet to the mile.Hence, the road can be operated with great success.The soil appears to be about the same as that of our own country west of the Missouri.L'or 356 miles west of Winnipeg to Regina, the Capital of the North-West Territory, all the lands seemed capable of successful and profitable cultivation.Within this distance are the thriving, prosperous towns of Portage la Prairie, Brandon, Moosomin, and others, and fields of excellent wheat, oats and potatoes were frequently in sight Durtag a halt at Brandon, 132 miles west of Winnipeg.we were driven for several miles through the surrounding country, and better fields of wheat and oats our party agiæed they had never seen anywhere.The wheat we were told by W.W.Ogilvie, lisq., of Montreal, one of the most extensive millers on the continent, is hard, similar to that raised in Minnesota, and worth a considerable percentage more than the soft or ordinary variety for milling purposes.Brandon is only two years old, and contains some 3,500 \u201cinhabitants.It ig beautifully situated at the crossing of the Assinibone River, and is the centre of a rich and prosperous section of country.West of Regiua the country is better cold ns the latitude would suggest.It should be remembered that the Japan current in the Pacific Ocean flows north along | the Western coast of America; that the Rocky Mountains trend westward and are much lower than further south ; that these warm winds flow over them, and as our gulf stream warms the west coast of Juropeso these warm winds from the Pacific flow over the mountains, thus carrying moisture and warmth much farther north than thelatitude would indicate.It certainly became warmer as we approached the mountains.The winters are long, to be sure, but the dry climate at that season renders them much more comfortable tlian they are often found many degrees to the south.CALGARY.The town nearest the present terminus of the track is 1,711 miles northwest of Chicago.Itis beautifully situated at the confluence of the Bow andthe Elbow Rivers, sufficiently high above them, and it is surrounded by gracefully rounded hills some 3,500 feet above the sea.There was the usual bustle and activity of frontier towns ; trains of wagons constantly atarl- ing and arriving from the front.The tenements are of every variety, from the tent to the more pretentious log and frame structure.It is only forty miles from the mountains, and we hoped for a sight of the old Rockies, but the envious smoke trom the forest fires prevented.Beyond this the road is being pushed forward through the mountains with great energy.Here is the headquarters of Captain Meclliree, the commander of the Mounted Police.From him and others we learned the xecret of the perfect good order that prevails along the Canada Pacific Railway.After the line vasses the boundary of Manitoba not one drop of liquer is allowed to resident or railway passenger.Baggage of all kinds is searched for it, and all that is found is incontinently confiscated.Let thirsty souls take warning and avoid the scrutiny and the unflinching energy of the \u201c red coats,\u201d for they do their duty with impartial severity.Gambling in any form and cognate vices are equally under the ban.Hence the contrast between the quiet and the good order of these border towns and what we have seen at Laramie, Promontory Point, and other places while our continental railways were building, shows what 8 burning curse whisky 18 to mankind.Where its sale is strictly forbidden by law, andthat law is enforced, quiet, peace and thrift prevail; gambling, drunkenness, and debauchery are unknown, the laborer is protected from the wiles of the wicked, and saves his hard earnings for those he loves.If this be praise and admiration for Canadian \u2018\u2018 red-coats,\u201d let the * best Mayor Chicago ever had\u201d aud his Council confederates make the most of it.If the example of Canada cannot be strictly followed, high licenses with $1,000,000 in the City Treasury would be a big step in the right direction.HOMEWARD.Leaving Calgary the evening of the 25th, the prospect of a ride of some 200 miles to Medicine Hat in a caboose with a dozen mountaineers spitting and smoking profusely was decidedly discouraging.We retreated to the lookout at the top of the caboose, where beautiful views of the rolling prairies and clean air could be had without stiut ; when as the shades of evening were falling, a good angel inthe shape of RE.H.Talbott, Ksa.of the Railway Age, invited us to the hospitalities of his\u2019splendid car, a kindness for which we shall never cease to be grateful.He and his associate, Mr.H.R.Hobart and their excellent wives, proved themselves hosts whose highest pleasure was shown in contributing to the happiness and the comfort of their guests.This car is really a palace on wheels.It touk the premium at our great railway exposition.Though costing $25,000, it was presented to Mr.Talbott bv his railway friends.It is the best car up to this date ever put on therail.Mr, Talbott left us at Glyndon for a six weeks\u2019 trip to the Pacific coast over the Northern Pacific Railway.COAL.The first morning after leaving Calgary found us at Medicine Hat, at the crossing of the South Saskatchewan River.This is sure to be a place of very considerable importance.Steamers with barges bring down the coal from the mines 140 miles above on the Bow River, the north confluent of the Saskatchewan.It is of good quality, but not quite so heavy as our Ohio bituminous coal.Mines also are found a few miles from Mericine Hat.Of another mine a Winnipeg paper says: « Work is being carried on vigorously in the Lethbridge coal mines on the Belly River near Whoop Up and six miles below the junction of the\u2019 St.Mary and Belly Rivers.The output averages sixty tons per day, and 200 men are at present employed in the mines.The steamer Baroness and the tug Minnow have been completed, together with seventeen barges to be employed iu the transportation of coal to Medicine Hat.More barges, too, are in the course of construction.\u201d There can be no doubt that an abundance of coal will be found in a belt of country north and south some 200 miles east of the mountains to supply all the wants of the railway, and of the peopto in Manitoba and the Canadian North-West.At Maple Creek, some 100 miles east, we saw some specimens of excellent lignite, which Prof.Langley pronounced \u2018good for culinary purposes.\u201d It was found in the Cypsess Hills, about fifteen miles to the south.THE SASKATCHEWAN is a greatnav:gable stream.At Medicine Hat we had the good fortune to meet Capt.J.B.Davis, formerly of Rock Island, the Superintendent of the Winnipeg & Northwestern Transportation Company.His steamer, the Lily, lay at the bridge- the first boat that ever reached that point from below.He had come up the south branch, 670 miles from its conduence with the \u2018north or main river, up which it is only thirty-five miles more to Prince Albert.This1s a prosperous town, and it is \u2018soon to become a large exporter of wheat.It is the intention to bring goods for Prince Albert, Edmonton, and other places on the North Saskatchewan by rail io Medicine Hat, and take them thence by steamer around to the towns en the North Saskatchewan.The river navigation opens about April 10, while the Cedar and Winnipeg Lakes, into which the Saskatchewan enters, remain closed till after the lst of June.Thus about two months\u2019 time will be gained by this route, and Medicine Hat will become \u201ca large shipping point as well as depot for coul and merchandise.WHEAT.The North-West has an immense crop of wheat.We saw great fields waving in all their golden luxuriance in Manitoba just ready for the reaper.- That province, we were told, would harvest 2,500,000 bushels.As we came south through Minmesata harvesters were busy, till; in the southern part of the State and in western Wiseonstn, the wheat was in shock or stack ready for the thrasher.Of course the few farmeng ghout the depots looked cheerful and happy.Transportation lines will have ell they can do to carry the crops to market.WHY THE ROAD WAS BUILT.\"The neoessity for this great Pacific Railwav was imperative, and the Government of Canada, with Sir John A.Macdonald at its head, knew that perfectly well.Hence, land, 222 wiles of completed road on the west and from Port Moody to Kamloops, and 436 miles from Winnipeg to Port Arthur.Nationality was the controlling idea in the minds of the statesmen of Canada, and at whatever cost the road must be built to bind the nation together.Without it disintegration, and that at an early day, would have been inevitable.Even now the financial and commercial interests of the Eastern and Western proviuces are antagonistic, and it is ditlicult to see how they can be reconciled.The country is largely in debt; the Eastern provinces have adopted the protective system, which for agricultural machinery and goods of all kinds will bear heavil on the Central and Western districts.Already we have heard ominous threaten- enings, and whether the people west of the Jakes bave patriotism and sentiment enough to stand the pressure of high taxes and dear machinery and goods of all kinds time alone can determine.\u201d To all this vast North-West we have free access by our railways.and it will be difficult for Canada to hold down its own people to à mere sentiment.Among Anglo-Saxons that is apt to explode 1f strong self-interest applies the torch.National comity and our good-fellowship require that we should keep * hands off.\u201d Two years more and this other great highway across the continent will be completed.It is in the best of hands.Ils General Manager, Van Horne, and Mr.Superintendent Egan were taken from our own Chicago roads, and hence the push and [the indomitable energy everywhere manifest.To us the great Canadian North-West is no longer a country of myth and mystery.It is a vast land of rich prairies and hard fact, where the unflinch- Ing enterprise of the Anglo-Saxon race is building up a great and ere long to become a rich and prosperous empire.Let us bid them God-speed in their every laudable effort to» plant our Christian civilization\u2019 there for the benefit and the welfare of mankind.= PITTSFORD, MASS., Sept.28, 1878.SIrs\u2014I have taken Hop Bitters and recommend them to others, as I found them very beneficial.MES.J.W.TULLER, Sec.Women\u2019s Christian Temperance Union ON THIRTY DAYS'TRIAL.THE VoLTAIC BELT Co.,Marshall,Mich., wil send Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Eleciro-Voitaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are Afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guarahteeing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014No risk is incurred as thirty days trial is allowed.Miscellaneous, LOM \u20ac MONTAGE co, TRUST COMPANY.INCORPORATED 1838.CAPITAL, - .- $1,000,000.00 SURPLUS OVER ALL LIABILITIES, - - $94.000.00 Loan money on REAL ESTATE and PURCHASE MORTGAGES.This Company is authorized to act in any position of Trust, either as Executor, Administrator, Guardian, Trustee or Receiver.Registrars and Transfer Agents of the \u2018Stocks and Bonds of Incorporated Companies.Trustees of Mortgages executed by Railroad and other Corporations.INTEREST ALLOWED ON DEPOSITS.DEBENTURES : Issue Sterling Debentures payable in London?also, Currency Debentures, payable in Canada.30ARD OF DIRECTORS: M.H.GAULT, E¢q., M.P., President, President Exchange Bank of Canada.Hon.A.W.OGILVIE, Vice-President, Senator.THEODORE HART, Esq., Director Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company.CRAIG, Esq., President Ex- THOM change Bank.A.F.GAULT, Esq., of Messrs, Gault Bros.& Co.JAMES CRATHERN, ot Crathern & Caverhill.G.F.C.SMITH, of the Liverpool & Lon} don & Globe Insurance Co.Trustees and Executors are authorised by Act of Parliament to invest in the Debentures of this Company.GEORCE W.CRAIG, Manager.Office, No.181 St.James Street, Montreal.June 27 152 Intercolonial Railway TENDERS FOR ST.JOHN STATION.SEALED TENDERS, addressed to the undersigned, and endorsed ¢ Tender for St.John Station,\u201d will ke received until SATURDAY 1:t SEPTEMBER, 1883, for the erection of a Station Building at St.John, N.B.Plans and Specifications.may be seen, and forms of Tender obtained at the office of J.T.C.McKean, Architect, Prince William Street, St.John and at the Chief Bngineer\u2019s Office, Moncton, on and after MONDAY, 20th AUGUST.Each Tender must be accompanied by a deposit equal to five per cent of the amount of the tender.This deposit may consist of cash or of an accepted Bank cheque, and it will be forfeited if the party tendering neglects or refuses to enter into a contract when called upon to do so, or if, after entering into the contract, he fails to complete the work satisfactorily, according to the plans and specifications.If the Tender is not accepted the deposit will be returned.Tenders must be made on the printed form supnlied.The Department will not be bound to accepl the lowest or any tender.D.POTTINGER, Chief Superintendent.RainmwAy OFEICES, Moncton, N.B., August 13, 1863.§ 83 195 The time for receiving tenders for above has been EXTENDED till the TENTH SEPTEMBER, 1888.MOLINO DEL REY A Delicate, Dry, Non-Aleoholic Sherry.Direct from the Duke of Wellington\u2019s Estate, at Gllora.SOLE AGENT, FRIED.KINGSTON, 25 HOSPITAL STREET, Mon November 25 .3 ADVERTISERS By addressing GEO.P.ROWELE & CO, 10 Spruce S:rcet, New York, can learn the exact cost of any proposed lineof ADVERTIS- in American Newspapers, - Pamphiet, 1Qc.papers.28\u201d 100-page IVORCES.\u2014No publicity ;

England and France would be seriously embittered.The dislocation of the cotton trade would put out of em- loyment thousands of operatives in the ancashire factories, and the revenue to the British Crown from India would show a serious deficit.The Americans, Germans, Japanese and Chinese themselves would secure more of the foreign and coasting trade in the East than the French.A Chinese

An Exciting Scene.Niagara Fairs, Ontario, September 6.\u2014Call it a humbug, an advertising dodge, or what you will, nevertheless it was a grand sight to see the new Maid of the Mist ridesafely through the whirlpool rapids.It is not over-estimating it to say that 50,000 people were here to-day, stretched along both sides of the banks of the Niagara river from a point a quarter of a mile above the railway suspension bridge to far down below the whirlpool.Over forty excursions were run in from different points on the five railways centering here.It was a gala day.The railway bridge was packed with human beings.It was rumored freely a man in the crowd fell off the bridge into the boiling abyss below, but on enquiring of the gate-keepers the report was not substantiated.It wasan amusing sight watching the great mass of people when all at once a murmur ran alon the Jine and it was a signa for the stretching of necks and a huzzah.At 3.40 p.m.the apparently facsimile of the Maid of the Mist went under the railway bridge and rushed madly down the turbulent current, bounding over wave after wave, the angry waters dashing against her, tossing her on Ler beam- ends, twisting her round and round, and nearly submerging the little craft.It was an exciting scene, and quicker than it takes to write it, she had passed through the rapids in safety and was gliding along the Canada shore of the whirlpool, landing in between huge rocks.Soon after some enterprising men hal shoved her adrift again and she went safely down the river.\u2014_\u2014_\u2014,\u2014 THE LAFAYETTE STATUE.Unveiling Ceremony at Lepuy Ye- ters day.Paris, September 6.\u2014The unveiling of the statue of Lafayette took place to-day at Lepuy in presence of an immense crowd, despite a severe storm.The streets were decorated with American and French flags and triumphal arches.Among the distinguished persons present were Ministers Morton and Sargent.Pret.Lafayette, of the memorial committee, unveiled the statue amid plaudits and sal: utes of artillery.Senator Vissanget delivered the opening address and eulogized Lafayette.Morton said he was rejoiced to assist at this tribute to the memory of Lafayette.He desired to express the interest of the Government and the affection of the citizens of the United States for a patriot, who next te Washington awakened gratitude in all American hearts.As an ardent lover of liberty he had advocated the supremacy of law, and his struggle was for the establishment of constitutional freedom.Would that he could now see the noble results of his work.America had attained that splendor and prosperity which Lafayette had predicted.The nations of America and France were never more united than on this occasion, and may the friendship which Washington and Lafayette founded remain for ever unbroken between the two Republics.Senator Lafayette returned thanks for the honor conferred upon the memory of his ancestor.At the banquet, Mr.Morton, replying to the toast to President Arthur, said the descendants of Lafayette would receive a warm welcome if they visited America.He proposed a toast to Senator Lafayette.Mr.Waldeck Rousseau, Minister of the Interior, said the two democracies, who were convinced they ought to undertake nothing against their neighbors, but were resolved to allow nothing to be undertaken against them, ought to csteem each other.ES UNITED GENERAL CONFERENCE METHODIST CHURCH.Second Day.BELLEVILLE, September 6.\u2014A great amount of preparatory business has been gone through to-day.The pastors of the Methodist Churches

Evidence.NEw YORK, September 6.\u2014Before the senate labor committee to-day, John Swinton said he had been connected with newsnapers since he was 12 years old.He recommended a revival of the income tax, establishment of a national board of industry to collect labor statistics with power to enforce the eight hour law, the establishment of boards of health, education and public works, industrial schools and colleges on the French system ; public ownership of railroads and telegraphs, freedom of patents, postal banks under the British and Canadian system, land laws which will prevent the holding by private individuals of great tracts of land, public ownership of coal, iron, gold and other mines and oil wells, The income tax was never repealed in this country.The present system of boards of health in this country was not effectual.There are two branches of newspaper business, manufacturing and editorial, Some great newspapers paid as much as 115 per cent.on the capital.Some editors were also proprietors whose salaries were $500,000 to $600,000 a year.The minimum received by reporters is probably $1,000, the highest $4,000, the latter exceptional.Newspaper correspondents received from $5,000 to $25,000 a year.The average weekly salary of reporters was from $40 to $75, the majority $60.There are 25,000 people in this city in newspaper work.The press, as a rule, was unfaverable to the working classes.\u201c1 am convinced of that myself,\u201d said Senator Blair, * since this investigation has been in progress.In my opinion such a wilful misrepresentation should be punished criminally.\u201d A newspaper, said witness, never lies but frequently mistakes are made unintentionally.John Jarrett, President of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers of Pennsylvania, said he had been engaged 25 years in the iron industry of Pennsylvania.The object of his organization was to\u2019 secure the moral, social, mental and financial improvement of the members.Many mills in Peunsylvania were not under the control of the union.bly more than in union mills.There had been numerous strikes before the supremacy of the union was acknowledged.Among the members of the new organization there was always a tendency to strike on the least provocation.Now methods of arbitration were pursued largely with satisfactory wacults, Rapresentatives of workmen and manufacturers once a year decided on a scale of prices and wages, All ironworkers favored protection, because it protected them in their wages.Protection did not increase the price of steel, but if it did not exist there would be no employment for iron and steel workers.In some mills not controlled by the union workmen are paid the same as those in English manufactories.The Government should appropriate means to carry out a system of public education.Jarrett said the tin plate manufactories carried on in this country would give employment to 4,000 men.The ore could be obtained from California and Australia as cheaply as England obtained it from her own mines.Under the present tariff the tin-plate manufacture could not be carried on.Seventeen million dollars were paid to English manufacturers last year hy Amer:- can merchants for this commodity.Witness favored the establishment of a bureau of labor statistics, the enforcement of the eight hour law, and the prevention of strikes by arbitration.There should be a national law incorporating trades unions.He believed in organization of capitalists as well as of workingmen.ee \u2014\u2014 Beecher in San Francisco.SAN FRANCISCO, September 6.\u2014The Plymouth Congregational Church has agreed to pay Henry Ward Beecher $2,- 400 for four lectures.Judging by their andiences it will probably lose money.eecher is not popular here as the utterances on the Chinese question have alienated the sympathies of the people.He published an interview to-day on the same subject, which will tend to increase his unpopularity,

usually a dull one, but it was not anticipated by outsiders in the early part of the summer that trade generally would have been so slack, as the crop prospects were considered excellent.Merchants and bankers, however, were determined to be on the safe side and restricted any expansion over the legitimate wants of trade, and to-day the wisdom of this safe policy is to be scen.It was, in view of this condition of affairs, that for several weeks we have been warranted in cautioning our readers to be careful in the purchasing of securities.Recent events have further confirmed the general accuracy of our views, There has been a sharp decline in values, but we imagine this has been caused more from the fuct that our speculators on ¢ the street\u201d have been caught \u201cshort\u201d of the New York market, which has suddenly alvanced, and have been forced to sell to keep up margins, than from anv want of decrease in the volume of trade of this Dominion.The slight depression which has existed the past few months has caused no great difficulties to the business community and as far as we can learn the fall outlook is looking brighter every day.Whether the recent decline in the price of stocks has put the market on a safe basis for buying or not we are not in a position to definitely state, but we imagine, from the tone of the markets, that many of the bank and miscellaneous securities have touched ¢ bed rock \u201d and that any further decline need not be looked forward to.In fact we should not be surprised to have to report next week a sudden and improved change iu the feeling of the markets with a teu- dency upward.There is only a slight demand for accommodation from commercial borrowers and their demands are fully met by bankers at 6} @ 7 per cent.on \u201cgilt edge\u201d paper and call loans are obtained at 5 @ 5% as to the nature of the collateral.The local stock market was active, opening weak, but towards the close there was a hardening up of prices, and as a consequence the bears looked anything but comfortable.Bank of Montreal opened at 197, and moved up to 197} before the close.Ontario advanced # from 1153@115%, and Peoples were traded in at 71@71}.Molsons were quiet at 126@127, and Toronto opened at 184}, declined to 184, but rallied up to the opening price before the close.Jacques Cartier were in offer at 109, with buyers at 104.Merchants declined } from the opening at 121% to 121}.Eastern Townships could have been purchased at 118, and Union at 90, but there were no transactions.Commerce were traded in at 1323@132%, and a few shares of Exchange changed hands at 135, Ville Marie were unchanged at 98 @ 105, and a round amount of Federal sold at 162.Montreal Telegraph were quiet and steady at 1224@1234.Canadian Pacific advanced from 564 to 57.Richelieu sold firm at 75- City Passenger dropped from 125 to 1244 Gas were about steady, selling at 1774@ 177$, closing at the opening quotation.A round amount of St.Paul & Minneapolis changed hands at 109.Canada Shipping Company could have been purchased at 88, and L.C.& St.L.Junction Railway at 87, but transactions were nil.North-West Land sold down from 50s to 49s

engines, such as are exclusively in service on the West Shore, is also a great relief to passengers, and adds immeasureably to the comfort and pledsure in travelling.GENERAL NOTES.\u2014The United

general position of commercial affairs has not materially changed in any branch since the time of our last weekly summary.There has been a continuation of the quiet tone lately noticed, yet there is a fair volume of business without much display.It is true that unsatisfactory expressions are sometimes heard, but it is better to keep trade within legitimate boundaries, than to have it unduly expanded by artificially stimulating the.movement of merchandise.Dry goods have had a moderately steady inquiry for general assortments, resulting in a fair aggregate of business, and while no special activity can be reported the trade is considered in a healthy condition.The metal markets are devoid of new feature.The distribution of general groceries keeps well up to a satisfactory level, and most houses report a good number of orders coming in.Fruits are very quiet, owing to the absence of supplies to deal in.Coffee Rapeseed has.change.Sugars in good request and syrup active, Spices quiet and firm.Some lines of chemicals are higher, but all are firm.Hops continue quiet.Leather has a more buoyant tone, while hides remain about steady.Turpentine has advanced ; other navalstores dull.Lumber is moderately active and steady, oils firm and wool quiet.Flour has been well maintained in value during the week, considering that it has had to contend with demoralized wheat markets at all points on this continent, as well as unsatisfactory cable news.The grain market has been literally a blank, with trade on spot most disappointingly slow.Hog products have ruled dull and weak, Pork has shown a considerable decline on the week.Butter has continued dull, and greatly nominal.The cheese market was quite strong during the earlier portion of the week, but it closes with an easier tendency.Chicago speculative circles have been overwhelmed by another severe bear raid on all articles, the brunt of which has been borne by wheat and provisions, but to-day there was a general

or two of the markets rather large transactions have taken place.From the heavy arrivals of new season\u2019s teas, considerable supplies have again been brought to auction and cleared off.but the commoner grades of Congou, and more particularly red leaf, have further declined 4d per lb.Indian teas have ruled firm for fine qualities, but the ordinary grades have not been so well supported.Coffee, after engaging only moderate attention, finished decidedly good.New York has advanced, and the continental markets have, with increase of business, sustained a slight advance.Here prices close 23 dearer for Costa Rica, and very firm for other imports, including plantation Ceylon and East Indian.Sugar has remained a dead letter as regards business, but without any appreciable loss in value ; and for fine crystallized Demerara rather stiff rates have been obtained.Reports of beet crops are favorable.Rice has further advanced 3d per cwt, and prices have a further upward tendency.Cloves have realised a small advance, but the spice trade otherwise is dull.The first shipment of new Valencia raisins in quantity left Spain this week, and is expected here about the 31st

E.Moss & Co., of London and Liverpool, thus review the shipping interests during the six months from February 15 to August 15, 1883:\u2014 Since February 15, 1883, a large business in steamers has been done, and many of those building on speculation have changed hands at a fair margin of profit to the contractors.This went on until early June, when a reaction took place so rapidly that for a time shipowners and builders feared a panic might set in, with results that would prove fatal in many cases.Matters have, however, now smoothed down somewhat, and though the anxiety to realize is rather too eagerly shown by some holders, there is a decidedly better feeling, and we are hopetul of getting through the crisis with less calamity than was at first expected.\u201cSeveral causes have contributed towards this unquiet feeling, notably the low freights which have now been ruling for several months; and secondly, the very general feeling that the market was overbuilt.The low freights unfortunately still exist, but as regards the new tonnage, it is silently absorbed (it is almost difficult to say by whom, but the fact exists), and we know of very few steamers that have been forced on the market and sold below contract price.Managing owners are no doubt pulling themselves together, and they must find it much more difficult to make up their owneries; but the process is still going ou, and we can state from our personal knowledge it is successfully carried out.Fortunately the foreigner is still as of heretofore a large buyer, and in addition to numerous purchases of ready boats, has plaecd orders with Clyde and other builders for many others.Builders, however, begin to see daylight, and though with few exceptions, yards are full for several months to come, there is an increasing anxiety amongst them to book | and tea rule steady, without quotable | orders with the usual result, viz.: that prices are easier for the buyer and worse for the producer; we are, however, bound to say, we see no chance of any serious reduction in the cost of building for a long while to cqne.Materials are, as a rule, as low as they can be produced or imported, and labor is so unsatisfactory, and the men are £0 unreasonable, that it will prove a very unstable factor when any caculations of future cost have to be made.- It will be useless to deny that a certain proportion of tonnage held in weak hands must be sold as soon as builders are ready with delivery, and we believe some really cheap bargains can be picked up during the next few months, but there arc always capitalists ready to take advantage of the chance, and buyers must keep a sharp look out or they will lose their opportunity.\u201cIron sailing vessels are much sought after, and several orders for vessels of 1500 to 2000 tons register have been piaced at £13 to £13 10s, \u201cThe French bounty seriously handicaps thie British builder; for example, on a vessel, if built in France, of about 4200 tons, the premium paid by the government to the snip-owner would exceed by upwards of £5000 per annum the premium he would receive tor a similar vessel if built in England ; but, however, in spite of all this, orders are still given for long course vessels, and for coasting steamers (cabotage), which do not participate in the premium, we have a practical monopoly.\u2018Iron vs.Steel\u2014Steel is not making the progress we expected it would make, and we fear this wl continue until improvements in the manufacture reduces the cost to a nearer approximate of iron.\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 WHOLESALE MARKETS.Boors AND Smors\u2014T'he trade has undergone no positive change.Most manufacturers are not working up to their full ce- pacity, and there is sume dissatisfaction expressed at the prices ruling, now that the leather market has given evidence of improvement.On the whole the prospects for a good trade are encouraging.CHEMICALS\u2014À firm tone pervades the general market in all its branches, while there has been a moderately active movement of spot goods, or a somewhat increased disposition among buyers to anticipate future requirements, owing to the comparatively low rates of freight now obtainable.The firmness centers more on bleaching powder, soda ash, and caustic soda, all of which have advanced in sympathy with the English market, and all other lines are well maintained.Soda ash 18 quoted at $1.75@$1.90; bleaching powder at $2.25@%2 50 ; and caustic soda at $2.25@$2.40.We quote :\u2014 Bicarb soda, per 112 lbs.Soda ash,

started at this point, although a few samples of the new crop have been disposed of.The stock of 1882\u2019s on hand is small.Transactions have been few, and mainly in small lots.We quote nominally: 1882\u2019s 20c/@30c ; and new crop 35c@40c.The New York Commercial Bulletin, in its weekly review of the hop market, says :\u2014 « The week\u2019s business has been very moderate, and the demand wholly devoid of character calculated to develop new strength.Brewers have taken only small lots, and shippers\u2019 purchases turn out unimportant.English houses cable over apparent inducements, but for some reason dealers are disinclined to send a great deal over until the people on the other side first urchase.Hence, it may safely be calcu- ated that the shipments from \u201cthis point virtually represent so many hops passed into the hands of consumers, Late ad- vices report an advance of 20s in the Lon- don market, and assign damage to growing crop by severe gale as the reason for it.Should this turn out as bad as the meagre information at hand would leave it to be inferred, all previous calculations are likely to be upset, and the market materially strengthened.Some contracts for new have been made ai 25¢, October delivery.\u201d The Utica Herald says: \u2014* Conversation with a number of hop men on the Board of Trade here brought out the fact that as a rule hops are coming down ve light in different parts of the country.Almost all of the growers are disappointed, their yards yielding so much less than they had been estimated As an instance, one man with 25 pickers got only 16 boxes per day.Another with 45 pickers got ouly 25 boxes.\u201cWith the exception of the Humphrey hope, which are doing better than usual, there are few yards which are giving anyihing like the expected yield.Even with the increased acreage, most growers are getting smaller yields than last year, and the entire crop of New York State has been considerably muditied during the past few davs.Many claim that a fair estimate of the yield will be two-thirds of last year\u2019s crop.Dealers are trying to buy hops at 25¢ and less, bit they are said to meet with poor succe-.The universally light weight of hops already picked, and the scaly appearance of many samples, have stiffened the view «f growers materially.When some of the best yards of a locality are giving uly 30 boxes to the acre, and this is true of good many localities, growers very naturally feel nore confident of better prices.A fair and candid man informs us that Brookfield will not have more than two-r:.:vis of last year\u2019s crop.In the town of V:zona the yards are said to be black and =cunty,and the estimate is cut down to onn place at 94e for No.1 and 84c for No.2.Native inspected hides

from Denmark and other countries 96,122 oxen and bulls of the value of £1,940,015.Cows imported from Denmark and other countries numbered 37,780, valued at £742,586.The number of sheep and lambs received from Canada and theUnited Stateswas 77,775,and the value £180,671 ; from Germany, Holland, &c., 592,899 shocrfBid lambs, of the value ot £1,265,394.Tire dead meat (fresh) imported from the United States and other countries amounted to 456,190 cwts., and the valug was £1,303,423.In each case there was a large increase compared with the corresponding period of 1882.Millions of pounds sterling are sent out of Great Britain for meat supplies.John Swan & Son\u2019s weekly report, dated August 27, says: The supplies ob home-fed cattle, both in Edinburgh and Glasgow markets, have been smaller this week.Trade in the open market, at both places, was rather quieter, secondary descriptions being much more difficult to sell at prices altogether in favor of the buyer, and a clearancd of this a markets all through have been worse this week.For sheep and lambs.on account.of the worse trade in London and the Midland counties of England, prices were a shade lower for all classes.In Glasguw, the better descriptions mel à fairly good trade, but mid- diing and inferior lambs continue a drug, ab extremely unsatisfactory prices, a large nam- ber being left unsold.Foreign supplies for the week have been considerable, comprising 260 prime States bullocks, which met a better trade, at about 3) a head more money ; from Canada, about 80 cattle, trade for which was, on account of the restrictions, more ursalis- factory ; from Denmark and Sweden, about 150 cattle, principahyinferior Without oversupplies at any particular place, the trade is materially hampered by the confliciing re- strictionsof various localauthorities.Ginsgow has this weck scheduled Ireland and \u2018all counties in Scotland having connection wit that country which have not followed à similar course.These restrictions, therefore, to those engaged in the trade, are most nerpiex- ing, and the only solution of the difficulty would be that a \u2018central board for the three countries, directly defining the movement of animals, should \"be appointed, as it is quite apparent that different county loent authorities adopt retaliatory measures.At the various lamb markets\u2019 during the vuek prices have scarcely been so high.Store cattle are offering in small numbers and meet a very quiet trade.Both pigs and calves have been steady, at last weck\u2019s prices.The supplies for next week from abroad will be considerably smaller, consisting of about 400 Canadians and 270 States.With Ireland and various of the principal counties in Scotland closed by Glasgow, these will likely be marketed in the latter market next week.Best home-fed cattle, 10s 6d;

evening to a large audience, with Charlotte Thompson as Jane Eyre, and the performance given was onc of the best presented to a Montreal audience for some time.Thestory of Jane Eyre is too well known to need any extended relation of the plot of the play being given to our readers; several dramatized versions of the tale exist, all of which possess more or less merit.The version presented by Miss Thomp-on\u2019s company is a very good one indeed, and possesses merits of its own, whilst, differing somewhat from other versions in minordetails of an unimportant nature.\u201cJaneEyre,\u201d an abused aud neglected orphan, is looked down upon\u2019 by her aunt, who sends her to a charity school when quite young, where she sponds some years of her life.she then secures à position as governess at Thornfield Hall, Lord Rochester\u2019s family seat, and to her 1s entrusted the care of Adele, the young daughter of Lord Rochester\u2019s elder brother, whese wife has become a maniac and is * the mystery of the Hall.\u201d Jane Eyre\u2019s humble and noble nature, gains for her the love of Lord Rochester, who has been disappointed in his first love, his affianced bride, * the mystery of the Hall,\u201d having married his elder brother.\u201cJune Eyres\u201d haughty aunt, however, projects a marriage between Lord Rochester aud Lady Ingram, a lady in appearance but not in nature, and Jane Eyre as governess is subjected to much humiliation from her relatives, but in vain as Lord Rochester makes his love Known and claims the noble governess as his bride.The play is repleto with extremely interesting situations, which hold the attention of the audience to the fall of the curtain.Miss Charlotte Thompson filled the part of Jane Eyre with singular ability, her persona- tion ofthe high-minded and noble governess, a lady not only in appearance but in nature being extremely faithful, and her powerful and clever acting gained for Ier the frequent and well merited applause of the audience.Mr.George Learock as Lord Rochester displayed some very strong acting and gave very able support to the heroine of the play.Mr.Win.Yerance took the double art of Prof.Brockelhurst, Superintendent of wood School, and Achille De Leon, in a manner that deserves the greatest praise, his personation of the latter character, the eccentric guest of Thorntie!ld Hall, being especially excellent, while his frequent expressions of humor succeeded in keeping the audience in constant laughter.Miss Clara Threpp, as Adele, Lord Rochoster\u2019s ward, showed some very charming acting for one of her age.The rest of the support was excellent, Some of the scenes were extremely realistic, particularly the fire scene, where \u201cthe mystery of the hall\u201d?sets five to the room of Lord Rochester, who is rescued by Jane Eyre.At the conclusion of this act Miss Thompson and Mr.Learock were called before the curtain and received loud applause from the audience.The performance was, highly successful, and had Jane Eyre been presented for the whole week there can be little doubt that tlie Royal would have been crowded to overflowing every evening.\"There will be but two more opportunities of witnessing the play, this evening and to-morrow evening, and no theatre goer should fail to see Charlotte Thompson in this drama, which i8 certainly the most interesting of her repetotre.MILTON NOBLES.Next week, as already announced, Milton Nobles supported by a strong company will hold the boards at the Royal, in his great plays of The Pheenix and Interviews.The company is one of the oldest dramatic combinations in America, have appeared during eight consccutive years in the well-known dramatic specialities written by Milton Nobles, and with which his name is inseper- ably linked.On Monday evening next will be produced the melo-drama entitled The Phenix, in which Milton Nobles takes the leading part as Carroll Graves, a New York Bohemian.The play is spoken of as one of extreme interest, and from it has originated the popuiar line, * And the villain still pursued her.\u201d On the last three, nights of the week Interviews will be presented to the public.Queen\u2019s Hall.THE ALLEGHANIANS, The Alleghanians at the Queen\u2019s Hall are nightly growing more and more popular.There was a good attendance lastevening and the music, which they produced from 120 bells, was greatly appreciated and frequently applauded.This is their last week in Montreal, and all those who have not yet seen them should avail themselves of the opportunities which they are offered to-day and tomorrow of witnessing a performance which fully deserves the praise that has already been accorded it.À special performance for children will take piace on Saturday afters noon, and on Saturday evening the Alloghanlans will give their farewell performance.The Herald Employes Picnic.The second annual picnic of the employes of THE HERALD will take place on Saturday.The place chosen this year is ut the splendid grove of Mr.Barron, al Lachute.A special train will leave Dalhousie Square Station at 9.10 a.m.sharp.All friends of the employes wishing to spend the day at Lachute can procure their tickets from À.P.Pigeon, of this office, the price is 60 cents to go and return.General Notes.\u2018\u2018 There are some persons on this side of the Atlantic,\u201d says the Boston Herald, \u201cwho do not consider Miss Mary Anderson a Cushman or a Rachel ; but she is 3 much more beauti- | ful woman and better actress than England hassentus yet.And her countrymen will be prouder of her success than tho English people appear to be of Mrs.Langtry\u2019s moncy making here.\u201d The Herald critic, like \u201cRip Van Winkle,\u201d most have been asicep, for a century.Has he forgotten the late Adelaide Neilson, who Miss Mary Anderson will never succeed in reaching in either beauty or artistic ability, and as for Mrs.Langtry, when she has been on the stage as long as Mary, we fecl confident she will be her superior.She is that now in speaking and intelligently presenting the English language, in the minor stage details only she

Mr.Robert Blckerdike, Prosident of the Lake St.Francis Navigation Co.The readers of THE HERALD have doubtless not forgotten the discussions which took place, some months ago, respecting the lease of the steamer S'.Francis to the Richelleu Company, when Mr.Senecal endeavored to control the affairs of the company by securing the majority of the shares of the company, nor will they have forgotten the manner in which the old directors fought inch by inch every attempt made to get thelr property from them, for the purpose of dolugaway with the opposition in the river trafic between this city and the town of Cornwall.The result of tho contest was that the views of the new directors were carried out,and an amalgamated board was formed.The old directors of the company decided to put into tangible form their appreciation of the services rendered by the president, Mr.Bickerdike, and in pursuance of this a depus tation met at Valleyficld yesterday, when Mr.Thomas Baird, of Durham, Ormstown, the Vice-President of the old board, presented Mr.Bickerdike with a valuable gold watch and chain.In doing so he sald they were met to do what was to him a work of great pleasure.At the last meeting of the old board, they had unanimously appointed Mr.Win Gils lespie and himself a committee to purchase andpresent toMr.Bickerdike a suitable expression of their appreciation of the valuable and prompt services he had rendered when placed in trying and difficult circumstances.The necessary amount was furnished by the directors, not a few ofthem.but by the whole of them, and it was now his good fortune to carry eut the wishes of the board by presenting Mr.Bickerdike with a mark of their esteem and of the way in which he had managed their affairs.He expressed the hope of the directors, in which ho cordially joined, that the recipient of the present might long be spared to wear it, and that he would bz blessed with health and prosperity.The watch, which was an 18-karat stop one, | bore the following inscription:\u2014 Presented to Robert Bickerdike, Pres : dent, by the Directors of the Lake St.: Francis Navigation Compuny,asa mark : of esteem and in recognition of valuable : services.February, 1883.Mr.Gillesple said ho heartily joined Mr.Baird in his folicitations to Mr.Bickerdike, who, he felt, would always be * up to time.\u201d Mr.Bickerdike said 1t afforded him most certainly a great deal of pleasure to be the recipient of this handsome gift.He might say he had more pleasure in recelving than they in giving.He would ever remember | and value the spirit with which they had worked together.He did not think that he was entitled to any more credit than the other directors, all of whom proved that thex were indeed flghting-men.He thanked them very sincerely for their handsome gift.The party then sat down to a very nice luncheon served by Mr.Larocque.Mr.Baird in the Chair, with Mr.Bickerdike, the guest of the day, on his right, and r.Plante, Mayor of Valleyfield, on his left.The following toasts were duly honored :\u2014 The Queen, the Governor-General and H.R.H.Princess Loulse ; The Mayor and Council of Valleytield, responded to by the Mayor; Our Guest, responded to by Mr.Bickerdike; Trade and Navigation, by Capt.Leslie; The Lakes, by Mr.John F.Nicholson, of Valleyfield; The Press, by Mr.Dunbar Browne, of the HERALD; The Secretary of the Company Mr.George H.Phillips, of Valleyfield.Mr.Browne having been voted into the Chair, a vote of thanks was moved and seconded to the Vice-President of the company, to which he replied, and then gave Our ost.After a very pleasant afternoon the guests separated at an early hour.SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, Cricket.UNITED STATES EVENIS\u2014PROSPECTS OF CRICKET IN TI[E UNITED STATES FOR SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER.The fall season of 1583, which is about beginning, promises to be an unusually good one, as a glance at the list of fixtures will show, and although, as far as Philadelphia is concerned, the settlement last spring ofthe competition for the Halifax Cup hasremoved a certain amount of zest from the cricketing arcna, the matches to be played here, as well as in New York and Boston, promise to be of espe:ial interest and importance.=The principal event of the season is the fix- Ture fur September 12th and 13th.All Philadelphia against the Unitad New York Eleven, which will be played at Nicetown, under the auspices of the Cricketers\u2019 Association.The New York team, we are assured, will be the strongest combination that has ever been gent from the metropolis; It will comprise professional talent as well as amnateur, and will undoubtedly make a strong bid for vic- ory.On Monday, September 2th, a \u201cCanadian weel\u2019?begins, when the I.Zingari will try conclusions successively with the Belmont, Merion, and Germantown, and endeavor to defeat one by one some of the clubs whose combined strength they have lately seen tested.The Pittsburg Eleven, which we belleve has been considerably strengthened since its last appearance here, completes the list of visitors to Philadelphia; tisey play the Philadelphia colts on September 10th and 1tth, and a picked eleven on September 7th und 8th on the Germantown grounds.The Girard, Germantown, and Bz2lmont complete the Halifax Cup series on Scptember Lith and 22nd, and October 13th; and return matches batween the Young America and Germantown, and Young Amecrica and Girard arc fixed for October 6th and 2th respectively.Visits to New York bythe Belmont.Merion, and Young America, and to Pittsburgh by the Young America are also on the tapis.Last, but by no means least, the proposed match between the International team, with the substitution of Dr.Ashbridge for Mr.J.G.Hubbard, should the latter be unable to.come on from Boston for the event, and an eleven of Philadelphia to be selected by Mr.D.S.Newhail, will excite the greatest interest ; indeed, it is already the principal topic of the cricket field.No dite has asyet been set, but there is very little doubt but that the match will be played soms time next month.From this cursory review of the list of fixtures, it may be seen that the fall season of 1883 will be by no means lacking in attractions.\u2014Ameri- can Cricketer.The Turf.PAROLE\u2019S EARNINGS.The following are the winnings of the celebrated old horse Parole since his debut on the turf in

English autumu handicaps promise to be as strong this year as ever.The number of entries are up to the average in all the events: \u2014The Cesarewitch, at two miles, two furlongs, and twenty-eight yards, received 111 subscriptions, which include, besides Eole Mr.J.R.Koene\u2019s Foxhall, Blue Glass, and Bolero; Mr.P.Lorillard\u2019s Pinafore, Lord Ellesmere\u2019s Wallenstein, Mr.Tom Cannon's Sachem, and Mr.T.F.Walton\u2019s Girofle, and his English horse, Mr.Pickwick.The French stables are also strongly represented, while the English lot includes the very best in the Kingdom.Among them are Barcaldine, Limestone, Petronel, Faugh-o-Ballagh, Shrewsbury, Border Minstrel, Victor Emanuel, Palermo, Fulmen, Macheath, Corrie Roy,and Thebais.The Cambridgeshire, 2 mile and 240 yards, has 137 subscriptions, which inelude, besides Eole, Foxhall, Bolero, and Blue Grass, Pinafore, Sachem, and Girofle, several bred in France, Germany and Hungary.The English lot is even stronger than in the Cesarewiteh, including as it does, St.Blaise, 1he winner of this year\u2019s Derby, and Shotover, the winner last year.The entries for the Great Rastern Handicap and & majority of the two-year-old handicaps are given.Mr.Lorillard\u2019s name appearing both in the First Nursery and the Second October Nursery as the nominator of Pontiac and Victrix, while for the Houghton Handicap over the T.Y.Con the last day of the season, at Newmarket, Mr.Keene has nominated Bolero.Athletic.SCOTTISII SPORTS IN AMERICA.The Scottish games given throughout the United States and Canada by the different Caledonian clubs and societies have, as a encral rule, been well attended this season.The earlier ones, which came off on the lst and 4th of July, gave much pleasure, and seemed to form a central rallying place for the residents of each section in which they were held.Those which succeeded them until the present time have enjoyed a full measure of success so far as public patronage is concerned, whilst the athletic records made at them have been higher than anywhere else.Albany and Philadelphia had each large gatherings, fully reprcsentative of the number of the Scottish population in each of them, and the management was such as to draw forth praise from every side.This week we have to record no fewer than five meetings at places so far distant from each other as Brooklyn, N.Y.; Erie, Pa.; Hamilton, Ont.; Montreal, P.Q., and Charlottetown, P.E.I.Each ofthese gatherings are reported as baving been largely attended by cannie Scots and admirers of the \u201cLand o\u2019 Cakes.\u201d This must be very encouraging to the members of these societies, for a good day at the games means, besides a pleasant meeting, a financial surplus, which will do much towards carrying on the general work during the winter.Thus gradually but surely we find these Scottish field days assuming greater importance in the community, And, as Seqtémen, we take pleasure in recording the fact\u2019 that thelr entire influeuce 1s of the most healthful description.The sports are virorous and manly, the spectators are orderly and happy, and there is an entire absence of that spirit of rowdv- ism which so often disgraces out-door meet- tings on this side of the Atlantic.\u2014Mail, * OBITUARY.| \u2014\u2014\u2014 / Death of Mr.E.C.Monk.The many friends of Mr.E.C.Monk, of the firm of

leading citizens was held at the City Club yesterday afternoon to consider the advisability of tendering a complimentary banquet to the distinguished statesman now in our midst\u2014the Earl of Carnarvon.Among those present were Sir Francis Hincks, Sir Alexander Galt, Messrs: Thomas Cramp, Gilbert Scott, John Molson, M.H.Gault, R.W.Thomas, W.H.Kerr Henry Lyman,J.H.Joseph, Richard White, W.Kinloch, W.J.Macmaster, .N.Benjamin and others.Sir Francis Hincks was requested to act as chairman and Mr.Mc- Gibbon as secretary.The chairman in opening the meeting said that Lord Carnarvon had a special claim upon their notice on account of his services In regard to the Confederation Act when he was secretary of state, Whatever people might think now of Confederation, it was admitted by all that no one could have exerted himself in this matter more than Lord Carnarvon, therefore à public expression of their regard was peculiarly appropriate.Lord Curnarvon had somewhat altered his plans and would return- to the city after visiting Toronto and Niagara.Consequently he proposed that the banquet should be given on the 18th inst.Sir Alexander Galt,in seconding the motion, said that he tully concurred in the remarks of Sir Francis Hicks, and thought that it was desirable that the meeting should be a representative one and not a party affair.The leading statesmen of both sides of politics and both nationalities should be asked to be present, After som\u201d discussion Slr Francis Hineks and Sir A.T Galt, were_ requested to wait upon Lord Carnarvon and formally request his attendance on the 18th inst., and to report to an adjourned meeting to be held this afternoon.All the Ladies and Children should ats tend the Saturday Matince of \u2018The Romany Rye.\u201d CRIMINAL

it outside ready to drive away, when he was alarmed by some persons passing and decamped.He was arrested while crossing the ferry and when brought up yesterday was fully remanded by the magistrate to the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench or trial.Recorder\u2019s Court.#There was a light morning\u2019s work at the above Court yesterday.Pierre Brillon dit Lapierre, was charged with assault, and the case

right and which would be of hardly any value to her, even if firmly established upon it, itis to be hoped the more sober-minded of the French people will reflect on the probable consequences of the conflict into which their Government has been urging them.A war with China is no longer the holiday pastime that it seemed to be a few years ago, for no nation has improved more than the Chinese in the art of War, and whatever can be done with improved weapons and better discipline they may fairly hope to achieve.In former wars with China the most that was ever attempted was to attack the Chinese ports and to make incursions into the country within easy reach of the fleet.This kind of warfare can now no longer be safely indulged in, for the Chinese have discarded their old junks and employ vessels of European construction armed with European guns.For a number of years China has possessed a considerable fleet of composite gunboats, and in 1876 a number of small wooden gunboats were built in England for the Chinese.They were followzd in 1879 and 1880 by seven steel gunboats, all constructed on the same design with a displacement of 450 tons, engines of 300 horse-power and a speed of 9 knots, drawing only 8 feet of water.Four of them carry each a 274 ton gun, and the other three 38 ton guns, all worked by hydraulic power.Some people have gone \u2018so far as to say that two or three of these gunboats well handled would be a match for any ironclad.This is probably an exaggerated view of their merits, but it is certain that no large unarmored wooden vessels could cope with them in coast warfare, China, however, is not without ironclads.In 1881 two steelfvessels, styled ram-cruisers, were constructed in England and sent out to the Chinese Government.Their displacement is 1,350 tons, they have engines of 2,600 horse-power and are each armed with two 26 ton breechloading guns, four 40-pounder and two 9-pounder breech-loading guns; two Nordenfeldts and four Gatlings.A new ironclad for the Chinese Government was launched at Stettin in 1881 and another in 1882.Altogether the Chinese have about 60 vessels in their navy, mounting about 300 guns, so that their force is by no means to be despised.It will take a much stronger fleet than the French now have in Chinese waters to attack the Chinese ports with any chance of success, In Tonquin the French will have to stand on the defensive, a species of warfare in which they do not generally succeed.They will have to maintain themselves in a very unhealthy country against an enemy which, if not very skilful is numerous and active.The climate is a most trying one to European constitutions and already the mortality among the unseasoned French soldiers has been very great.Many of these soldiers are said to be mere boys, unfit for an ordinary European campaign, much less an Asiatic one, most of them being mere conscripts.Within a few days after their arrival at Saigon one-fifth of them were down with fever.These, however, are not the only dangers which the French will have to face in their conflict with China, The whole civilized world is interested in the trade of that country, and a blockade of the Chinese ports would be regarded with great disfavor by all European nations, but more especially by England and Germany.The Chinese, it is said, count on the interference of England in the quarrel, in case ef a war with France, and, whether this view is correct or not, it is certain that it finds support in some English journals.France certainly is, in this Eastern business, playing most effectually into the hands of her enemies, and the grim German Chancellor must chuckle when he thinks how the Republic is discrediting and weakening itself in Furope by its Quixotic schemes in the East, for the acquisition of territory which it cannot use to advantage and for {the planting of colonies which it never will be able to maintain.The feeling in France is by no means TILE MONTREAL HERAL unanimous in regard to the present schemes of the Government in the East, and some of the newspapers strongly protest against them.The France says that in face of the grave events which are springing up independently of the action of France, slie oucht to have a definite attitude and line of policy abroad.Ministerial indifference in such a matter would be more than weakness ; it would be downright treason.A limit must be set to the extravagant aims entertained in some circles for a colonial policy, which, in the Far East, blindly rushed into all sorts of perils without knowing or even studying them.The Cabinet, adds the writer, has less information on the affairs of Tonquin than the English newspapers, but it can no longer be doubted that the evident hostility of China has condemned rance to efforts altogether out of proportion to the protection of her interests, and that Indo-China is a whirlpool in which France is about to see her men and money engulphed.The Justice strongly protests against the extension of the Tonquin expedition to Annam.By quotations from M.Challe- mel-Lacour\u2019s speeches during the recent session the Justice once more shows that the Minister for Foreign Affairs positively assured Parliament that the campaign would be limited to the Red River delta, and that, should any unforeseen difficulty arise, the two Houses would themselves consider the question.\u201cAnd now,\u201d exclaims the Justice, \u201c we are about to bombard the capital of Aunam, situated from 100 to 150 leagues from Lower Tonquin, without even declaring war.On July 12 we warmly congratulated the Minister on his clear utterance, and said, \u2018They have promised not to begin the Tunisian business over again.\u2019 Are they not doing so now?It is always the policy of remote expeditions.\u201d The tone of many of the other French papers received by the last mail is similar.The Lanterne observes: \u2014 \u201c France is being dragged into a bellicose adventure, of which no one can predict tie end or whereit may lead ue, Eventually they [the Ministry] will come before the Chamber asking it to sanction this adventure and to vote credits which it will be impossible to refuse ; for once having compromised the honor of our flag and having shed our soldiers\u2019 blood, all discussion is at an end.One cannot leave a French army in foreign countries without money and without help.\u201d The Paris Bourse, a financial jourual, remarks :\u2014 - The absence of telegraphic communication is making itself felt, and, as many operators see matters in a very gloomy light, Government is suspected of keeping something back.Was it not said the other day that M.Tricou\u2019s departure from Pakin was kept secret for electoral purposes ?And now it turns out that M.Tricou has never been to Pekin, which, of course, precludes the possibility of his having ever left it.\u201d The Marseillaise remarks :\u2014 ¢ Who will enlighten the alarmed country on the serious complications and dangers which are likely to arise out of the Tonquin expedition, undertaken and conducted adventurously by a Ministry as ¢ light-hearted\u2019 as Emile Ollivier ?\u201d The Petit Parisien exclaims :\u2014 \u201c We are led blindfold through a series of adventures in Tunis, Tonquin and Madagascar ; and we must allow them to lead us without understanding the.reason while understanding it too well.\u201d THE NEW ENGLISH BANKRUPICY ACT.One ofthe most important measures passed at the recent session of the Imperial Parliament was the Bankruptey Act.Bankruptcy legislation has rarely been satisfactory, and every new measure on this subject must be regarded as, to a large extent, experimental, but it is believed that this last attempt to reconcile conflicting interests and do justice to both parties will come nearer to what is wanted by the mercantile classes than any act which has yet been passed.Its provisions are well worthy of study by Canadian legislators and business men.According to the summary of the new act given by the London Economist all proceedings under it will be commenced by a petition to the Court.A petition may be presented either by a creditor or by the debtor himself ; and it will lead eventually to one of two results, namely either a composition or scheme of arrangement, or bankruptcy proper.In other words, there will be one mode of entrance into legal insolvency, while there will be two modes of exit.No debtor will be allowed to compound or arrange with his creditors, or to get his discharge in bankruptcy until he has passed a public examination.This will be a turnstile through which everyone must pass.The first order made on a petition will be what is called a receiving order.The effect of this order will be, not to divest the debtor of his property, as is done by an adjudication, but to put an officer of the Board of Trade, to be called the Official Receiver, in temporary charge of the property, with all the powers of a receiver and manager appointed by the High Court.There will be one or more official receivers attached to.each Court having bank- rupcy jurisdiction, It will be the duty of the OfficialÿReceiver, on the one hand, to investigate the conduct and dealings of the debtor.and, on the other hand, to to protect the estate until the creditors have had time to meet and take action for themselves.Provision is also made that in exceptional cases the Official Receiver may temporarily appoint a special manager to carry onfa pending business.Assoon as possible after a receiving order is made, the debtor must furnish the Official Receiver with a statement of his affairs, and any other required information.The Official Receiver will summon and preside at the first meeting of creditors.At that meeting, or an adjournment thereof, the creditors will determine what course the insolvenc y shall \u2018take ; whether a composition or scheme shall be accepted, or whether the debtor | As Book-keeper or shall be adjudged bankrupt.If the creditors resolve to accept a composition or scheme of arrangement, it will be only one step towards that result.The action of tlie first meeting will have to be approved at a subsequent meeting by a majority in number of the creditors representing three-fourths in value of all the creditors who have proved.This confirmatory meeting is not to he held until the public examination of the debtor is concluded.When the composition or scheme has been confirmed by the creditors the sanction of the Court will still be required.The Court, before giving its sanction, will hear the report of the Oflicial Receiver on the conduct of the debtor, and will have to be satisfied that the debtor has not been guilty of misconduct, and that the composition or scheme is for the interest of the general body of creditors.If the creditors resolve that the debtor be adjudicated bankrupt, or if the negotiations for a composition or scheme fall through, the debtor will be forthwith adjudicated bankrupt, and thereunon his property will vest in a trustee, who will be appointed by the creditors.The Board of Trade will have a right of veto on the appointment, and will in all cases require the trustee to give security.The Board of Trade will also audit Lis accounts, and exercise a general supervision over his conduct in the interest of the creditors.The remuneration of the trustee will be fixed by the creditors, but in all cases it must be in the nature of a commission or percentage calculated in part on the amount realised, and in part on the amount distributed in dividends.The powers and duties of a trustee as regards realising the estate and distributing the proceeds will be much the sama as under the present Act.When a trustee is appointed, the duties of the Official Receiver relating to the estate will cease, except that during any temporary vacancy in the office he will act as trustee, but he will still be concerned with the conduct of the bankrupt.A bankrupt may at any time apply for his discharge, but the applica- examination is concluded.Under the Act 0f 1869 bankrupts usually do not take take the trouble to apply for a discharge, but under the new Act the position of an undischarged bankrupt will not be so enviable as it now is.An undischarged bankrupt who obtains credit from any person to an extent exceeding £20 without informing that person of his status will be guilty of a misdemeanor, and be liable to be punished accordingly.When the bankrupt applies for his discharge the Court will have to consider the Official Receiver\u2019s report on his conduct, as well as hearing any objections which the creditors mag urge.If it appears that the bankrupt has been guilty of any misdemeanor under the Debtor's Act, 1869, his discharge will be refused.If he has been guilty of any other serious miscon- duct\u2014and the Act gives a list of acts constituting such misconduct\u2014 the Court may either refuse or suspend his discharge, or make it conditional.A TeE New York Evening Post has the | following pungent remarks on the highway robbery in Massachusetts, reported in our despatches of yesterday :\u2014¢ A case of highway robbery of the most approved Western pattern is reported from the immediate vicinity of Boston.A stage coach, filled with ladies and gentlemen, was returning from Nantasket Beachthe Coney Island of Boston\u2014on Monday night, when a gang of twenty-five or thirty robbers sprang out of the woods, in a lonely spot, seized?the horses\u2019 heads: held a pistol at the head of the driver, and then \u201cwent through\u201d the passengers.One gentleman had his clothes badly torn and his nose broken, and others of the party were more or less;bruised by contact with the ruffians.All the watches, jewelry, and money in the party were taken, and the passengers reached their destination in a very badly demoralized and depleted condition.This, in the peaceful State of Massachusetts, within a few miles of Boston, at the very opening of a Foreign Exhibition which was organized to show the world the advanced condition of Boston civilization, is most extraordinary.If General Butler were not Governor, what a campaigu issue he could make of it, as showing the lax condition of public authority in the State.\u201d > WE publish elsewhere an interesting account of the North-West from a staff correspondent of the Chicago Tribune.\u2018As the testimony of a foreigner in regard to the great capabilities

by Messrs.Chapleau, Morcier, Mousseau, Descarries, Beaubien, &¢.For some months the eyes of the people of Canada, and of this Province in particular, have been turned to the county of Jacques Cartier, where issues were In process of contestation calculated to be of the most vital importance to every one.The interest has been the greater owing tu Mr.Mousseau\u2019s delay in declaring his intentions and in replying to the grave accusations made against himself and his administration.Soon after his election was annnlled he went to St.Laurent, where there was a political bout between him and his adversaries, since which time he has manifested a desire to let matters take their own course until something turned up, either in the shape of a constituency which it would be less difficult to carry, or a more favorable feeling towards him in Jacques Cartier itself.A few days since, however, a meeting was called to be held yesterday at St.Laurent in his interest, at which it was understood would be triumphantly refuted all the © slanders\u201d which had been circulated respecting him and his predecessor in the Premiership.This assembly was consequently looked forward to as being one of THE MOST IMPORTANT that has ever been held since Confederation accorded special provincial administration.This was because of the serious accusations against Mr.Mousseau and his predecessor and of other questions that, to a great extent of public importance, had assumed very much of a personal aspect.So much, indeed, was thought of the day\u2019s controversy, that special trips were inaugurated from various parts of the province.All the roads from the city were crowded from an early hour with loadel vehicles hurrying to the place of meeting, while numbers walked the whole distance.There were several large expresses with parties of pessengers, four or five of which were said to have been dispatched under the auspices of Mr.J.B.Emond, the ticket for which\u2014a blue card bore the words: \u201c Admettez le porteur\u201d Between 4,000 and 5,000 people gathered in front of the church yesterday torenoon, where a commodious platform had been erected for the speakers under the direction of Mr.Lapointe.Among tne gentlemen present were to be seen Hon.Messrs.Chapleau, Mousseau, Mercier, Beaubien, Archambault,Wurtele, Boucher de la Bruere, W.W.Lynch, Trudel,Jean Blanchet,Prudhomme,

Lemay, Baptiste Emond, JOSEPH BEEF, ETC.Hon.Messrs.Chapleau and Moussean arrived the previous evening and were the uests of Dr.Tasse.Noon was the time xed for the commencement of proceedings, but it was one o\u2019clock before anything was done, when Mr.Mousseau nominated Mr.Girouard, M.P.for the county, as the presiding officer.Hon.Mr.Mercier objected, insisting that the proper parties were either the Mayor of the Parish, Mr.Belanger, or Mr.Charette, the Mayor of the County.Now ensued a hubbub, cries coming from all sides for each of those gentlenien.; Mr.Mousseau insisted on the choice of Mr.Girouard, who had had much experience in carrying out the rules of order and debate.(Cries of ¢ Girouard !\u201d) Mr.Mercier said it was customary that on occasions like the present the Mayor should preside, and 1t was only an act of courtesy to Jo the same on this occasion, He further objected that Mr, Girouard was à political friend of Mr.Mousseau.Mr.Mousseau averred that he had called the meeting, and he desired Mr.Girouard to preside.(Cries of\u2018 Belanger.\u201d\u201d) Mr.Chapleau appeared to be unfavorable to th2 position taken by the Provincial Premier.Mr, Girouard declared that he could not consent to preside unless the meetinz were unanimous in choosing him.If they selected Mr.Belanger, be felt that he would be a man worthy of their choice.By this time it was discovered that the position occupied by the platform was a ad one.A STRONG WIND BLOWING across it and seriously interfering with the speakers.The platform was consequently removed toa more sheltered place, an operation which consumed almost a half hour of valuable time.Everything Leing arranged with the exception of a chairman, | Mr.Chapleau said it was useless any | longer to discuss the chairmanship, thereby delaying the meeting.Some one must preside.If Mr.Girouard were here let either he or Mr.Belanger be appointed.Mr.Beaubien said he would be happy to accept Mr.Belanger, the Mayor of the arish, otherwise \u201che shouid prefer the ayer of the county.; n the recommendation of Mr.Mercier, it was at length decided to put the question of the chairmanship to the vote of those present.Mr.Chapleau then called for & show of hands for Mr.Girouard.Mr.Beaubien called for the votes for Mr.Belanger.; It was, however, impossible to discover which had the most votes and a joint chairmanship was then proposed ; but neither of the gentlemen could be fonnd.Eventually it was agreed that the meeting should be under the joint conduct of Messrs.Chapleau and Mercier.Meantime the platform which had been considerably damaged by its removal had been crowded with people and began to threaten to fall, and a few more naily were driven in to secure it.A number of people who had business upon it were driven off while all, except those who were to speak and the reporters, were requested to leave; but the number of reporters now became something frightful, aad the old letters and pencils which were produced was most astonishing.And 80 a vast number remained to THE SERIOLS INCONVENIENCE of those who had real work to do.| A controversy ensued as to the time and order of speaking, which caused additional delay.lt was resolved eventually that + > \u2014 : .THE MONTREAL HERALD, AND DAILY COMMERCIAL, GAZETTE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 each side should have two hours and a half to speak, Mr.Chapleau to commence, followed by Mr.Descarries, Mr.Mousseau and Mr.Mercier.A few minutes before two o'clock : Mr.Chaplean took the stand.He was warmly received.He said that he had come here in reply to au invitation from the electors of St.Laurent.He had come here not to talk Federal politics, as had been stated, but to deal with those of a Provincial character.If he had not come, it would have been stated, as it had been before, thut he was afraid to come.Ie had been attacked when not here to reply ; but, if any one desired to attack him, let them do so now, if not they showed their cowardice.Referring to the first election for this county, Jast year of Mr.Mousseau he observed that he had been returned by a majority of 400.What was the spectacle to-day presented?Mr.Mousseau had been supported by Mr.Mercier.Was not Mr.Mousseau the Mr.Mousseau who was last year returned ?Mr, Laflamme had written a letter APPROVING OF HIS CANDIDATURE, yet he was now his bitter opponent.Why was this ?Messrs.Trudel and Bellerose had acted in the same manner.Was it Mr.Mousseau or these gentlemen who had changed their views ?It was a scandal to see Mr.Laflamme, the counsel of Guibord, give the fraternal kiss to Mr.Trudel, the great defender of the Catholic Church.Was the latter going to confess him?Mr, Mousseau having been returned by a large majority, it was evident that the electors favored his election.If in case a supporter of the honprable gentleman, led away by enthusiasm, had overstepped the bounds of the :aw, that was no reason why Mr.Mercier and his friends should desire to overlook the wish of the electors and deprive Lim of the proud position to which they had assigned him as their representative.The gentlemen of whoin he had spoken had acted the weathercock, but he did not think the gentlemen before him who were | the most interested, occupied that position.There was a mystery and he would tell them all about it.A year ago Mr.Mercier had the same ambitionsthat he had to-day.It was not with him, unfortunately, a question of politics.The people had been woefully deceived; they had been taught to regard him (Mr.Chapleau) as a thief, a liar, and a perjurer.His opponerts had no respect for themselves or the public men ot the country, and, therefore, could not respect their opponents.Messrs.Trudel and Laflamme could not possibly make an alliance for the sake of country, for between them there was nothing in common.The position was today ridiculous.There were four parties in the province : the true Liberais and Conservatives, the \u2018\u2018 Castors \u201d and the \u201cé tittle people,\u201d among the Liberals who tried to inake themselves felt through Le Temps.The castors\u201d who were against him were largely composed of disappointed ambitions hypocrites.They desired to destroy the Conservative party to gratify their own desires.Unlike the animals whose name they bore they were neither industrious nor useful.They wanted larger wages than they could earn and begrudged refunding any.The party was composed of a number of disappointed politicians who were stimulated by nothing\u2019 but ambition and jealousy.They were parasites in the political world doing nothing for their existence ; like the beaver they gnawed at the foundations of what was in their way, with a view to destroy it and establish themselves.But today \u201cCastor \u201d stock was very low.Like the beaver all that was any good about them was their skin and that did not appear to be worth much now.Who composed the gentlemen of Le Temps party?One of them, Mr.Marchand, its editor, had been compelled to eay about one affair which he had decried that the worst which could be said against it was that it was an error of judgment.Another was ex-Minister Mercier, a man who had over lim the fascination for power.He had desired to form a government, and because he could no: do so had wanted to enter a coalition with Mr.Mousseau.If Mr.Mousseau had taken him in he would unquestionably have been singing his praises to-day on this very plattorm.He had contested Mr.Mousseau\u2019s election because he would not take him into his government, and for that very reason he had founded Le Temps.For the last two years he had been LIVING ON CONTESTED ELECTIONS, and gained enormous sums for most reprehensible acts in connection with them.Were the electors content that a man like this.should obstruct the Government which was in power, and for him were they prepared to change their politics ?He admitted that the position of affairs in the province was sufficiently grave.Mr.Trudet had, in a most cowardly manner, left his party, had deceived the clergy and the people, and had sown divisions among them.If the Canadians allowed themselves to be cajaled and divided, it would give grounds for the statements of their enemies that they were not fit to govern.For the first time in the history of the country politics had been introduced amongst the clergy by L\u2019Etendard, which constituted the greatest danger to the French-Canadian nationality since the conquest.L\u2019Etenard had deceived the people under the cloak of reli- pion.There were two things of which rench Canadians had to be jealous : their religion and nationality which they must preserve.Mr.Trudel had tried to deceive the clergy and capitalists also as to the object of his paper and the necessity for ity existence.Wile pretending that his paper had been established for the advancement of faith, charity and religion, Mr.Trude! had gone right into politics.The present was the occasion of the gravest danger.After all, with what had Mr.Mousseau been reproached ?It was said he had improperly sulit the railway.For two years the disposition of the railway had been discussed.Bgfore Mr.Senecal hal dreamed of buying the railway he (Mr.Chapleau) had consulted Sir John Macdonald and Sir Hector Langevin.He had asked them either to buy it or sanction its sale.He had pointed out that it ought to be a link in the Canadian Pacific system and had finally sold it for $8,000,000, a sum with which Mr.Joly had expressed his satisfaction, as also did Mr.Robertson.He had sold the road for tiat sum save and except the cost of the completed work that had not been paid for.Mr.Mercier had not been present in the House to VOTE AGAINST THE SALE, of which he now so much complained, excusing himself by saying he had his own business to attend to, and could not always be there.He went on to enumerate the occasions on Which he alleged that Mr.Mercier had neglected his duty.On the occasion of Mr.Mousseau\u2019s election in Bagot in 1878, Mr.Mercier had condemned him for being absent on several occasions from the House at elections, declaring that he should he present all the session to vote on all questions.Yet this Mr.Mercier, who had neglected his duties, declared that the Government had mal- administered the railway.This railway question was the principal plante in the Castor\u201d platform.He declared that the remission to the city of Quebec of $200,000 of its railway subscription had been initiated by Mr.Joly.Ile (Mr.Chapleau) had said to them \u2018 ifthey would remit the claims against the Government the Government would withdraw their claims against that city and with respect to the land required for the railway would do the same as Mr.Joly has promised.seau had changed the contract.Messrs convention of August, 1882.stated that he would like to see matters arranged.The Opposition, instead of DISCUSSING FAIRLY AND SQUARELY ruin while he, his friends and Mr.Senecal were rolling in their millions.He spoke at present in front of the church and he now swore on his honor asa public man that he never directly or indirectly took one sou from the people or the province.He had neither compromised himself nor his family, at the public expense.He would say in all conscience that he had married into a rich family and had succeeded in investments of his own money in property in Montreal.Was it not a shame to follow a public man with scandals and insults of this kind?Was that politics or principle, or ¥as it worthy of the people as Canadians ?As concerned Mr.Mousseau, rather than hound him in this way they should say that he was an honest man and a good Catholic, but instead of that he was maligned and traduced.There was upon the platform one of his old friends (Mr.Bellerose) who had attacked him for his speech in New York.Were it not for the nature of his attack he should never have answered him.He had charged that he, Mr.Chapleau, had entered the Federal Government in opposition to the wishes of his party.If he were accused he was here to listen to the accusations.If his adversaries had anything to say let them say it.He had no fear of them.Had he fear, he would not have been prepared to speak the first to-day.All he wanted was A FEW WORDS OF DEFENCE.He had never sought a coalition with other him, desiring that he (Mr.Chapleau) at the head of the Conservative party.He RESPECTED HIS ADVERSARIES, if they had the convictions'of honest fen, side were only unitel to destroy.It was very easy to criticize, but it was not so easy reat Canadian patriot, Sir George E.Sartier.He was calumniated and charged was far differently appreciated.And so soughtyto belittle and discredit.He con- seau to the people of Jacques

vote for a big man of experience.The Liberal party did not measure brains by physique.Mr.Mousseau, the chief of the Conservative party, who had been sent for from Ottawa, had not, it was manifest, succeeded in rallying 1t ; but as concerned the Liberals it had been shown that when it became necessary that the great interests of the Province be protected the Liberals rallied.They were not thieves, and the bad men whom they had denounced as without principle knew that without the assistance of the Liberals last year Mr.Mousseau would have been beaten.He [Mr.Mercier] had no fear of Mr.Chapleau.An honest man need never fear another honest man.But he charged that Mr.Chapleau had betrayed the interests of the country and had conducted himself as a traitor.Mr.Mousseau might laugh as he had done.He had laughed befure and had said \u2018¢ WE WILL REPLY BY THE VOTES of the members.\u201d He would tell him that sooner there would be a reply by the votes of the electors who wanted to know whether or not the Government had done their duty.He would tell them that they had utterly failed in their promises.Mr.Mercier continued to speak of the transactions in the sale of the Provincial Railway, which had been disposed of ostensibly to ut an end to an era of deficits and oans; yet since the sale Mr.Chapleau had voted a loan of three millions, while Mr.Mousseau had voted a loan of $500, 000.By reference to the public accounts and other statements, Me.Mercier showed that Mr.Mousseau had paid over $300,000 for works on the railway, after the date of the contract of sale, while the remissions in the price of the North Shore Railway had amounted to $357,000.That might be politics, but it was the, ruin of the province, He closely criticized Mr.Mousseau\u2019s civil service reforms, pointing out that gross injustices had been committed, and produced a statement of figures gathered from the - public accounts, to which Mr.Chapleau objected as \u2014 incorrect when he referred to each item in the book, and handing it to the Secretary of State, \"said, amid much cheering mn the audience, * Read Mr.Chapleaun, if you please I\u201d Mr.Mercier made an exhaustive REVIEW

you are satisfied with what I have said vote against Mr.Mousseau.I don\u2019t ask the Liberals specially to vote against him, but 1 call on all to do their duty as honest men.\u201d Mr.Mousseau followed at length, REITERATING THE CHARGES against Mr.Mercier of seeking to enter the Cabinet with him.; Messrs.Descarries, Bergeron and Beaubien followed, the meeting concluding-with a rousing speech from Mr.Beaubien, and a reply by Mr.Chapleau.The meeting was manifestly in majority in favor of Mr.Descarries.Messrs.Trudel and Descarries also addressed the electors from Gosselin\u2019s

Rink\u2014A Fine Display.The secqund annual exhibition of the Dog Fanciers\u2019 Assoclation of Montreal commenced yesterday at the Victoria Skating Rink, and certainly was the finest yet held under the auspices of this Associati«n, both in the number of entries and the quality of the exhibits.\u2018The Association is, it might be said, but in its infancy, having been formed only a ycar ago last March, but it has achieved great success sinco its formation.The first show under.the auspices of the Association was held in the Crystal Rink last September, and proved in every particular a very successful affalr.The prosent show is in the opinion of ali an even better one than the first.There are nearly five hundred entries, including many from the United States and Western Canada.The exhihition is conducted on the English bench show system, and a large number of champion winners in other bench shuws are on exhibition, Among the best outside exhibits are those of Dr.J.8.Nevin, of London, Ont.; D.Shea, of London, Ont.; J.G.Brown, Quebec, and Messrs.John A.Thayer & Bro., or Lancaster, Mass., who show some very fine stock.The rincipal Montreal exhibitors are Messrs.Holdbrook, J.A.Campbell, Geo, Jordan, and others.The exhibits of greyhounds, pointers, setters, collies, Newfoundiands, Yorkshire and skye terriers, black and tan, Irish setters &c., are very fine.Some very choice bull dogs are shown hy the Messrs.Thayer, of Lancaster, Mass., no less than six of which are champion stock.The show was opened to the public at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, and there was a good attendance during the day.The judges were early at work and below is given the prize list, as completed up to last night.The show will remain open on Friday and Saturday, and certainly all who take an interest in the canine species should not fail to pay it a visit.PRIZE LIST.The following is the prize list :\u2014 FOX HOUNDS\u2014DOGS.lat, Benjamin Higgins\u2019 Jumboo nd,

woman, and child in_ whose heart true affection finds lodgement.Having passed within the portal of man and womanhood, how often thought re-opens the gateway of memory, and the panorama of the \u201c ola\u201d homestead with its many endearing surroundings is spread before us in life-like reality.It is not the lot of man especially, to remain among the scenes of boyhood, and if in later life he has established his own home, business necessarily calls him more or less frequently abroad; and at such times, it should prove his first purpose to surround himselé with comforts as homelike as possible.If visiting the great metropolls of the New World, he can find such surroudings at the Grand Union Hotel [opposite the Grand \u2018Central Depot], which, with its 600 rooms at $1,\u201d and upwards per day; its vunexcelled Restaurant, Cafe, Lunch and Wine rooms; its strictly first-class attendance ; its moderate charges with no carriage hire, nor expense for trahsfer of baggage to and from Grand Central Depot, renders the Grand Unlon so immensely popular, so thoroughly homelike, that thousands on entering its portals silently exclaim :(\u2014 ¢* Mid pleasures and palaces, though I may roam As on this fair earth, I continue to dwell, There\u2019s no place that seems, so much like ome, As does that well-known Grand Union Hotel.\u201d MOTHERS !

and 8arnia\u2014was composed of 14,000 bushels of corn and 50 car loads of flour for foreign shipment from Minnecapolis by the Grand Frank Railway, and four car loads of wool for Boston.But if the Canadians can carry the products of the North-West cheaper than our own people, the difference adds just so inueh to the profits of eur producers.LAKE SUPERIOR TO WINNIPEG.Port Arthur is some five miles from Fort William at the mouth of the Kiministiquia River, once the shipping point of the Hudson Bay Company, up that river and through Rainy Lake, the Lake of the Woods, and various watercourses to the Far North-West.Fifty years ago it was a place of much importance.The old fort and other buildings are falling into decay.It was at first proposed as the Lake Superior terminus of the Canada Pacific Railway, but Port Arthur, directly on the vay, was wisely selected.Forty miles of it eastward along.the shore are already completed.Port Arthur is pleasantly situated on a lateau sloping gently down to the lake.e saw some gardens filled with vege tables and a field of oats, showing that the climate did not forbid successful grain culture.The railway for 430 wiles to Winnipeg winds around among an endless succession of knobs and ridges, underlaid mostly by primeval rocks, ~The ridges, vallev~ and are still deusely covered Ly pine swamps and arch (tamarack) trees, though Uuwndreds Of thousands vf them have been used by the builders of the road for ties and timbers west of Winnipeg, where the treeless country extends for more than 800 miles to the Rocky Mountaine.The only place of any cousi\u2018lerable importance between the lake and Winnipeg 1s Rat Portage, at the foot of the Lake of the Woods.Vast and valuable timber districts on both sides of that lake, Rainy Lake and river, and other watercourses find an outlet here and give the town a large and profitable business.Tle lakes are about countless, for one is scarcely for half an hour out of sight of them.This part of the Dominion can hardly ever become a prosperous agricultural country, but its timber will always Le wanted.WINNIPEG.Here we are at the Capital of the pros- erous, pushing Province of Munitotaur short stay was made most pleasant by the very polite attentions of our excellent Consul, Col.James W.Tavlor, and N.F.Hagel, Esq., barrister, of Winnipez.Since 1871 and 1879, when 1t was our good fortune to visit it, the city has grown immensely.Where then was open prairie are now large stores filled with all kinds of goods ; there are elegant residences and all the evidences of wealth and prosperity.Bridges span the Red and Assiniboinethen only to be crossed by rickety old scows\u2014and scores of railway trains arrive and depart daily east, west and south, The followers of Lord Selkirk through Hudson\u2019s Bay in 1811 and the denizens of old Fort Garry, could they wake up, would stand aghast, confounded at the sight._ Starting west from Winnipeg the morning of the 23rd, by the introduction of United States Consul Col.James W.Taylor, we were invited to the hospitalities of his private car by Senator R.B.Landon, of Minneapolis.He and lis associates were the contractors, who built most of the road west of Winnipeg, They gave our Canadian neighbors a splendid specimen of Yankee enterprise.Starting at Oak Lake, 165 miles west of Winnipeg, the lst of May, 1882,they had completed 420 miles by the close of the year ; and this year to the 15th August they had added 260 miles more\u2014making in all, with sidings, 720 miles\u2014thus opening the road 845 miles west of Winnipeg, and 1,240 miles west of Lake Superior.They also put up all the bridges, that over the South Sasketchewan being 1,000 feet long and forty feet high.THE COUNTRY for this long stretch of 845 miles to Calgary is treeless, and very similar in ap- earance to our own between the Missouri iver and the Rocky Mountains, with the exception that therollingridges areshorter, and often lie across the pathway of the road.| While the grades are more uneven than on our roads they seldom exceed thirty or forty feet to the mile.Hence, the road can be operated with great success.The soil appears to be about the same as that of our own country west of the Missouri.L'or 356 miles west of Winnipeg to Regina, the Capital of the North-West Territory, all the lands seemed capable of successful and profitable cultivation.Within this distance are the thriving, prosperous towns of Portage la Prairie, Brandon, Moosomin, and others, and fields of excellent wheat, oats and potatoes were frequently in sight Durtag a halt at Brandon, 132 miles west of Winnipeg.we were driven for several miles through the surrounding country, and better fields of wheat and oats our party agiæed they had never seen anywhere.The wheat we were told by W.W.Ogilvie, lisq., of Montreal, one of the most extensive millers on the continent, is hard, similar to that raised in Minnesota, and worth a considerable percentage more than the soft or ordinary variety for milling purposes.Brandon is only two years old, and contains some 3,500 \u201cinhabitants.It ig beautifully situated at the crossing of the Assinibone River, and is the centre of a rich and prosperous section of country.West of Regiua the country is better cold ns the latitude would suggest.It should be remembered that the Japan current in the Pacific Ocean flows north along | the Western coast of America; that the Rocky Mountains trend westward and are much lower than further south ; that these warm winds flow over them, and as our gulf stream warms the west coast of Juropeso these warm winds from the Pacific flow over the mountains, thus carrying moisture and warmth much farther north than thelatitude would indicate.It certainly became warmer as we approached the mountains.The winters are long, to be sure, but the dry climate at that season renders them much more comfortable tlian they are often found many degrees to the south.CALGARY.The town nearest the present terminus of the track is 1,711 miles northwest of Chicago.Itis beautifully situated at the confluence of the Bow andthe Elbow Rivers, sufficiently high above them, and it is surrounded by gracefully rounded hills some 3,500 feet above the sea.There was the usual bustle and activity of frontier towns ; trains of wagons constantly atarl- ing and arriving from the front.The tenements are of every variety, from the tent to the more pretentious log and frame structure.It is only forty miles from the mountains, and we hoped for a sight of the old Rockies, but the envious smoke trom the forest fires prevented.Beyond this the road is being pushed forward through the mountains with great energy.Here is the headquarters of Captain Meclliree, the commander of the Mounted Police.From him and others we learned the xecret of the perfect good order that prevails along the Canada Pacific Railway.After the line vasses the boundary of Manitoba not one drop of liquer is allowed to resident or railway passenger.Baggage of all kinds is searched for it, and all that is found is incontinently confiscated.Let thirsty souls take warning and avoid the scrutiny and the unflinching energy of the \u201c red coats,\u201d for they do their duty with impartial severity.Gambling in any form and cognate vices are equally under the ban.Hence the contrast between the quiet and the good order of these border towns and what we have seen at Laramie, Promontory Point, and other places while our continental railways were building, shows what 8 burning curse whisky 18 to mankind.Where its sale is strictly forbidden by law, andthat law is enforced, quiet, peace and thrift prevail; gambling, drunkenness, and debauchery are unknown, the laborer is protected from the wiles of the wicked, and saves his hard earnings for those he loves.If this be praise and admiration for Canadian \u2018\u2018 red-coats,\u201d let the * best Mayor Chicago ever had\u201d aud his Council confederates make the most of it.If the example of Canada cannot be strictly followed, high licenses with $1,000,000 in the City Treasury would be a big step in the right direction.HOMEWARD.Leaving Calgary the evening of the 25th, the prospect of a ride of some 200 miles to Medicine Hat in a caboose with a dozen mountaineers spitting and smoking profusely was decidedly discouraging.We retreated to the lookout at the top of the caboose, where beautiful views of the rolling prairies and clean air could be had without stiut ; when as the shades of evening were falling, a good angel inthe shape of RE.H.Talbott, Ksa.of the Railway Age, invited us to the hospitalities of his\u2019splendid car, a kindness for which we shall never cease to be grateful.He and his associate, Mr.H.R.Hobart and their excellent wives, proved themselves hosts whose highest pleasure was shown in contributing to the happiness and the comfort of their guests.This car is really a palace on wheels.It touk the premium at our great railway exposition.Though costing $25,000, it was presented to Mr.Talbott bv his railway friends.It is the best car up to this date ever put on therail.Mr, Talbott left us at Glyndon for a six weeks\u2019 trip to the Pacific coast over the Northern Pacific Railway.COAL.The first morning after leaving Calgary found us at Medicine Hat, at the crossing of the South Saskatchewan River.This is sure to be a place of very considerable importance.Steamers with barges bring down the coal from the mines 140 miles above on the Bow River, the north confluent of the Saskatchewan.It is of good quality, but not quite so heavy as our Ohio bituminous coal.Mines also are found a few miles from Mericine Hat.Of another mine a Winnipeg paper says: « Work is being carried on vigorously in the Lethbridge coal mines on the Belly River near Whoop Up and six miles below the junction of the\u2019 St.Mary and Belly Rivers.The output averages sixty tons per day, and 200 men are at present employed in the mines.The steamer Baroness and the tug Minnow have been completed, together with seventeen barges to be employed iu the transportation of coal to Medicine Hat.More barges, too, are in the course of construction.\u201d There can be no doubt that an abundance of coal will be found in a belt of country north and south some 200 miles east of the mountains to supply all the wants of the railway, and of the peopto in Manitoba and the Canadian North-West.At Maple Creek, some 100 miles east, we saw some specimens of excellent lignite, which Prof.Langley pronounced \u2018good for culinary purposes.\u201d It was found in the Cypsess Hills, about fifteen miles to the south.THE SASKATCHEWAN is a greatnav:gable stream.At Medicine Hat we had the good fortune to meet Capt.J.B.Davis, formerly of Rock Island, the Superintendent of the Winnipeg & Northwestern Transportation Company.His steamer, the Lily, lay at the bridge- the first boat that ever reached that point from below.He had come up the south branch, 670 miles from its conduence with the \u2018north or main river, up which it is only thirty-five miles more to Prince Albert.This1s a prosperous town, and it is \u2018soon to become a large exporter of wheat.It is the intention to bring goods for Prince Albert, Edmonton, and other places on the North Saskatchewan by rail io Medicine Hat, and take them thence by steamer around to the towns en the North Saskatchewan.The river navigation opens about April 10, while the Cedar and Winnipeg Lakes, into which the Saskatchewan enters, remain closed till after the lst of June.Thus about two months\u2019 time will be gained by this route, and Medicine Hat will become \u201ca large shipping point as well as depot for coul and merchandise.WHEAT.The North-West has an immense crop of wheat.We saw great fields waving in all their golden luxuriance in Manitoba just ready for the reaper.- That province, we were told, would harvest 2,500,000 bushels.As we came south through Minmesata harvesters were busy, till; in the southern part of the State and in western Wiseonstn, the wheat was in shock or stack ready for the thrasher.Of course the few farmeng ghout the depots looked cheerful and happy.Transportation lines will have ell they can do to carry the crops to market.WHY THE ROAD WAS BUILT.\"The neoessity for this great Pacific Railwav was imperative, and the Government of Canada, with Sir John A.Macdonald at its head, knew that perfectly well.Hence, land, 222 wiles of completed road on the west and from Port Moody to Kamloops, and 436 miles from Winnipeg to Port Arthur.Nationality was the controlling idea in the minds of the statesmen of Canada, and at whatever cost the road must be built to bind the nation together.Without it disintegration, and that at an early day, would have been inevitable.Even now the financial and commercial interests of the Eastern and Western proviuces are antagonistic, and it is ditlicult to see how they can be reconciled.The country is largely in debt; the Eastern provinces have adopted the protective system, which for agricultural machinery and goods of all kinds will bear heavil on the Central and Western districts.Already we have heard ominous threaten- enings, and whether the people west of the Jakes bave patriotism and sentiment enough to stand the pressure of high taxes and dear machinery and goods of all kinds time alone can determine.\u201d To all this vast North-West we have free access by our railways.and it will be difficult for Canada to hold down its own people to à mere sentiment.Among Anglo-Saxons that is apt to explode 1f strong self-interest applies the torch.National comity and our good-fellowship require that we should keep * hands off.\u201d Two years more and this other great highway across the continent will be completed.It is in the best of hands.Ils General Manager, Van Horne, and Mr.Superintendent Egan were taken from our own Chicago roads, and hence the push and [the indomitable energy everywhere manifest.To us the great Canadian North-West is no longer a country of myth and mystery.It is a vast land of rich prairies and hard fact, where the unflinch- Ing enterprise of the Anglo-Saxon race is building up a great and ere long to become a rich and prosperous empire.Let us bid them God-speed in their every laudable effort to» plant our Christian civilization\u2019 there for the benefit and the welfare of mankind.= PITTSFORD, MASS., Sept.28, 1878.SIrs\u2014I have taken Hop Bitters and recommend them to others, as I found them very beneficial.MES.J.W.TULLER, Sec.Women\u2019s Christian Temperance Union ON THIRTY DAYS'TRIAL.THE VoLTAIC BELT Co.,Marshall,Mich., wil send Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Eleciro-Voitaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are Afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guarahteeing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014No risk is incurred as thirty days trial is allowed.Miscellaneous, LOM \u20ac MONTAGE co, TRUST COMPANY.INCORPORATED 1838.CAPITAL, - .- $1,000,000.00 SURPLUS OVER ALL LIABILITIES, - - $94.000.00 Loan money on REAL ESTATE and PURCHASE MORTGAGES.This Company is authorized to act in any position of Trust, either as Executor, Administrator, Guardian, Trustee or Receiver.Registrars and Transfer Agents of the \u2018Stocks and Bonds of Incorporated Companies.Trustees of Mortgages executed by Railroad and other Corporations.INTEREST ALLOWED ON DEPOSITS.DEBENTURES : Issue Sterling Debentures payable in London?also, Currency Debentures, payable in Canada.30ARD OF DIRECTORS: M.H.GAULT, E¢q., M.P., President, President Exchange Bank of Canada.Hon.A.W.OGILVIE, Vice-President, Senator.THEODORE HART, Esq., Director Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company.CRAIG, Esq., President Ex- THOM change Bank.A.F.GAULT, Esq., of Messrs, Gault Bros.& Co.JAMES CRATHERN, ot Crathern & Caverhill.G.F.C.SMITH, of the Liverpool & Lon} don & Globe Insurance Co.Trustees and Executors are authorised by Act of Parliament to invest in the Debentures of this Company.GEORCE W.CRAIG, Manager.Office, No.181 St.James Street, Montreal.June 27 152 Intercolonial Railway TENDERS FOR ST.JOHN STATION.SEALED TENDERS, addressed to the undersigned, and endorsed ¢ Tender for St.John Station,\u201d will ke received until SATURDAY 1:t SEPTEMBER, 1883, for the erection of a Station Building at St.John, N.B.Plans and Specifications.may be seen, and forms of Tender obtained at the office of J.T.C.McKean, Architect, Prince William Street, St.John and at the Chief Bngineer\u2019s Office, Moncton, on and after MONDAY, 20th AUGUST.Each Tender must be accompanied by a deposit equal to five per cent of the amount of the tender.This deposit may consist of cash or of an accepted Bank cheque, and it will be forfeited if the party tendering neglects or refuses to enter into a contract when called upon to do so, or if, after entering into the contract, he fails to complete the work satisfactorily, according to the plans and specifications.If the Tender is not accepted the deposit will be returned.Tenders must be made on the printed form supnlied.The Department will not be bound to accepl the lowest or any tender.D.POTTINGER, Chief Superintendent.RainmwAy OFEICES, Moncton, N.B., August 13, 1863.§ 83 195 The time for receiving tenders for above has been EXTENDED till the TENTH SEPTEMBER, 1888.MOLINO DEL REY A Delicate, Dry, Non-Aleoholic Sherry.Direct from the Duke of Wellington\u2019s Estate, at Gllora.SOLE AGENT, FRIED.KINGSTON, 25 HOSPITAL STREET, Mon November 25 .3 ADVERTISERS By addressing GEO.P.ROWELE & CO, 10 Spruce S:rcet, New York, can learn the exact cost of any proposed lineof ADVERTIS- in American Newspapers, - Pamphiet, 1Qc.papers.28\u201d 100-page IVORCES.\u2014No publicity ;

England and France would be seriously embittered.The dislocation of the cotton trade would put out of em- loyment thousands of operatives in the ancashire factories, and the revenue to the British Crown from India would show a serious deficit.The Americans, Germans, Japanese and Chinese themselves would secure more of the foreign and coasting trade in the East than the French.A Chinese

An Exciting Scene.Niagara Fairs, Ontario, September 6.\u2014Call it a humbug, an advertising dodge, or what you will, nevertheless it was a grand sight to see the new Maid of the Mist ridesafely through the whirlpool rapids.It is not over-estimating it to say that 50,000 people were here to-day, stretched along both sides of the banks of the Niagara river from a point a quarter of a mile above the railway suspension bridge to far down below the whirlpool.Over forty excursions were run in from different points on the five railways centering here.It was a gala day.The railway bridge was packed with human beings.It was rumored freely a man in the crowd fell off the bridge into the boiling abyss below, but on enquiring of the gate-keepers the report was not substantiated.It wasan amusing sight watching the great mass of people when all at once a murmur ran alon the Jine and it was a signa for the stretching of necks and a huzzah.At 3.40 p.m.the apparently facsimile of the Maid of the Mist went under the railway bridge and rushed madly down the turbulent current, bounding over wave after wave, the angry waters dashing against her, tossing her on Ler beam- ends, twisting her round and round, and nearly submerging the little craft.It was an exciting scene, and quicker than it takes to write it, she had passed through the rapids in safety and was gliding along the Canada shore of the whirlpool, landing in between huge rocks.Soon after some enterprising men hal shoved her adrift again and she went safely down the river.\u2014_\u2014_\u2014,\u2014 THE LAFAYETTE STATUE.Unveiling Ceremony at Lepuy Ye- ters day.Paris, September 6.\u2014The unveiling of the statue of Lafayette took place to-day at Lepuy in presence of an immense crowd, despite a severe storm.The streets were decorated with American and French flags and triumphal arches.Among the distinguished persons present were Ministers Morton and Sargent.Pret.Lafayette, of the memorial committee, unveiled the statue amid plaudits and sal: utes of artillery.Senator Vissanget delivered the opening address and eulogized Lafayette.Morton said he was rejoiced to assist at this tribute to the memory of Lafayette.He desired to express the interest of the Government and the affection of the citizens of the United States for a patriot, who next te Washington awakened gratitude in all American hearts.As an ardent lover of liberty he had advocated the supremacy of law, and his struggle was for the establishment of constitutional freedom.Would that he could now see the noble results of his work.America had attained that splendor and prosperity which Lafayette had predicted.The nations of America and France were never more united than on this occasion, and may the friendship which Washington and Lafayette founded remain for ever unbroken between the two Republics.Senator Lafayette returned thanks for the honor conferred upon the memory of his ancestor.At the banquet, Mr.Morton, replying to the toast to President Arthur, said the descendants of Lafayette would receive a warm welcome if they visited America.He proposed a toast to Senator Lafayette.Mr.Waldeck Rousseau, Minister of the Interior, said the two democracies, who were convinced they ought to undertake nothing against their neighbors, but were resolved to allow nothing to be undertaken against them, ought to csteem each other.ES UNITED GENERAL CONFERENCE METHODIST CHURCH.Second Day.BELLEVILLE, September 6.\u2014A great amount of preparatory business has been gone through to-day.The pastors of the Methodist Churches

Evidence.NEw YORK, September 6.\u2014Before the senate labor committee to-day, John Swinton said he had been connected with newsnapers since he was 12 years old.He recommended a revival of the income tax, establishment of a national board of industry to collect labor statistics with power to enforce the eight hour law, the establishment of boards of health, education and public works, industrial schools and colleges on the French system ; public ownership of railroads and telegraphs, freedom of patents, postal banks under the British and Canadian system, land laws which will prevent the holding by private individuals of great tracts of land, public ownership of coal, iron, gold and other mines and oil wells, The income tax was never repealed in this country.The present system of boards of health in this country was not effectual.There are two branches of newspaper business, manufacturing and editorial, Some great newspapers paid as much as 115 per cent.on the capital.Some editors were also proprietors whose salaries were $500,000 to $600,000 a year.The minimum received by reporters is probably $1,000, the highest $4,000, the latter exceptional.Newspaper correspondents received from $5,000 to $25,000 a year.The average weekly salary of reporters was from $40 to $75, the majority $60.There are 25,000 people in this city in newspaper work.The press, as a rule, was unfaverable to the working classes.\u201c1 am convinced of that myself,\u201d said Senator Blair, * since this investigation has been in progress.In my opinion such a wilful misrepresentation should be punished criminally.\u201d A newspaper, said witness, never lies but frequently mistakes are made unintentionally.John Jarrett, President of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers of Pennsylvania, said he had been engaged 25 years in the iron industry of Pennsylvania.The object of his organization was to\u2019 secure the moral, social, mental and financial improvement of the members.Many mills in Peunsylvania were not under the control of the union.bly more than in union mills.There had been numerous strikes before the supremacy of the union was acknowledged.Among the members of the new organization there was always a tendency to strike on the least provocation.Now methods of arbitration were pursued largely with satisfactory wacults, Rapresentatives of workmen and manufacturers once a year decided on a scale of prices and wages, All ironworkers favored protection, because it protected them in their wages.Protection did not increase the price of steel, but if it did not exist there would be no employment for iron and steel workers.In some mills not controlled by the union workmen are paid the same as those in English manufactories.The Government should appropriate means to carry out a system of public education.Jarrett said the tin plate manufactories carried on in this country would give employment to 4,000 men.The ore could be obtained from California and Australia as cheaply as England obtained it from her own mines.Under the present tariff the tin-plate manufacture could not be carried on.Seventeen million dollars were paid to English manufacturers last year hy Amer:- can merchants for this commodity.Witness favored the establishment of a bureau of labor statistics, the enforcement of the eight hour law, and the prevention of strikes by arbitration.There should be a national law incorporating trades unions.He believed in organization of capitalists as well as of workingmen.ee \u2014\u2014 Beecher in San Francisco.SAN
