possible trouble ahead.The outcome of the uncertainty is evinced in the attitude of bankers, who are fully awake to the advisability of strengthening their position as far as that can be conveniently done, not that they are in positive danger, but that the contraction of discounts will tend to establish a more reassured feeling in all branches of trade and commerce The failure in the fur trade to-day was an outgrowth of the suspension of the Exchange Bank, and created no surprise.Montreal Stock Market.On the Stock Exchange to-day the markets were characterized by a greatly improved tone, which in some cases approached to buoyancy.There is some hesitation, however, about going long, be- causa it is not yet certain if prices are low enough to justify a bull movement, or that the causes responsible for the recent depression have exhausted themselves, neither is it certain that the bears have finished with their attempts to break the markets.Bank stocks were generally stronger,and nearly all closed higher.Monttreal opened at 191, and remamed steady for some time, with a fair amount of trading.In the afternoon it was irregular and easier, closing unchanged from yesterday at 1903.Ontario was more active, and very weak.The opening sales were made at 1093, on which followed a break of 2} in the afternoon, the market closing at 1073.Peoples was weak, and sold down to 62, closing at 60@62.Molsons changed hands at 114.Toronto was very strong.It opened at 173, and made a gain of 2 before the close, when the market was 3 better than yesterday at 175.Merchants was more active at a higher range, closing % up at; 116}.Commerce also showed more animation, closing à higher at 126}.Federal was active and strong, closing 24 higher at 1503.Jacques Cartier was quoted at 100@110, and Union at 70/@78, while Eastern Townships vas offered at 116.Gas was the prominent feature in miscellaneous stocks.It opened at 168, and steadily advanced without material check to 170, when it reacted, and closed at 169, again of 1 from yesterday.Montreal Telegraph was quiet, and closed easy at 1173@118%.Richelieu was quiet, but stronger, closing at 55554.City Passenger was steady at 118.North-West Land was weak, and dull at 70s@72s 6d.Cotton stocks were offered at 70 for Canada, 60 for Dundas, and 90 for Montreal, with 60 bid for the latter.In railway stocks, Canadian Pacific was active} and strong, closing 14 higher at 52.St.Paul & Minneapolis closed firm at 105@107.\u2018Lhe following are the day\u2019s transactions :\u2014 MORNING BOARD.305 @ 191, 25 @ 1903, 25 @ 191 En eee 150 @ 1095, 24 @ 1094 PEOPples.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026000000c0ecnn etes eee 5 a 5 Molsons TS \u2026.Toronto.2% @ 173,25 @ 1734, 10 @ 173} !

of our last review, have not tended to accelerate the development of business, yet they have had no positively evil effect, beyond creat\u201d ing an uneasy feeling, lest there should be more behind, which did not previously exist.If the aggregate movement has not actually decreased, buyers have certainly conducted their operations with a greater degree of caution which borders on timidity, and perhaps it is as well that such should be the case, but in some quarters an opinion is expressed that it is being carried too far.The vol ume of business, however, has been fair under the circumstances, and in most departments a hopeful feeling is entertained.There has been no marked fluctuation in values that calls for special mention.More complaints over the manner of payments are heard, especially of the apparent difficulty with which some country storekeepers meet their obligations.Apart from this the commercial situation com tains no really unsatisfactory features.In dry goods the movement has been individually moderate, but collectively fair, but the prospects of trade in winter goods are satisfactory, and will doubtless take more definite shape as the weather becomes colder.Iron and hardware generally have retained their former characteristics.The improvement in the distribution of general goods last noted has been maintained at a full level.Tinplates are firmer, while tin changes.Boots and shoes have been fairly active and steady.hides have ruled quiet and unchanged.In general groceries the distribution has hardly been so active, still a good trade has been done.Sugar has scored a further advance in yellows, and the supply keeps short.Coft:e is dull, and tea quiet.Rice is firmer in sympathy with the advance in England.Fruits are somewhat unsettled, and difficult to quote.Chemicals are quiet and about steady.Wool is moderately active, and hops dull.In naval stores rosins have moved out more freely.The breadstuffs market has ruled |

at its commencement.À feature of the trade this fall has been the development of the demand for felt boots, of which it is estimated some 300,000 pairs were owe to replace the cowhide boot formerly used so extensively.This has diminished the demand for waxed upper in the leather market, which, in turn, may be held partially accountable for the quiet trade in that de- sold this season.These have

of fish have been moderate, just about enough to replenish stocks.Receivers seem to experience\u2019no difficulty in realizing firmer prices.Owing to the delay in inspection the outward movement of Labrador herrings has been greatly retarded, but we learn that the difhiculty has been overcome by arrangement among the trade.Some British Columbia salmon has been re ceived, which is held at $17 per brl.North Shore salmon are quiet.Green cod is easy and other kinds of fish unchanged.We quote: \u2014 Fruirs.\u2014On spot the movement of fruit continues very light, so much so that rices are hardly quotable, nor will there e much business until the arrival of the steamer Moss Brow from the Mediterranean.In Valencia raisins there have been some further large transactions at 6c to arrive, but the market at the moment is somewhat unsettled in sympathy with New York.Private advices from New York say that there is a strife between the large jobbing, and the regular importers.The latter are

a little to buyers both at public and private sale, but other fruits show no appreciable change in value.Nuts continue in a strong position, with a further appreciation in prices of almonds, filberts

crop, and hence confidently carried over in Prine or in syrup to the new campaign.Candied orange and lemon peels are about exhausted.Juniper berries are less inquired after and easier to buy.== Hipes

noticeable that a bearish feeling prevails strongly in the markete, and in quarters that previously have been on the other side.\u201d Hops.\u2014The deadlock between buyers and sellers continues to keep the market in an extremely dull groove.There is not the slightest anxiety to sell, and buyers are equally stubborn.Brewers only purchase enough to provide for pressing Dry Goons\u2014The week has brought?necessities, while the grower holds out for little, if any, improvement to the dry goods trade, which continues to show former quiet features.The movement of woollen and heavy dress goods has been moderately active in regard to immediate trang- actions, but the prospects for a good distribution are favorable.Cctton goods are quiet and about steady.The stock of knitted goods is rather heavy, mainly owing to the shrinkage in the trade wit the North-West.Otherwise stocks are well under control, and not likely to cause any inconvenience.Collections are generally reported fair.Latest mail advices from Bradford, England, are as follow :\u2014 \u201c The general tone of our market is certainly im proving,but prices do not advance, although their tendency is against buyers.In English wool there is rather more demand, and Irish wools are better looked after.In the latter sellers do obtain a slight advance.Botany woolsare just now in large consumption.Spinners are all extremely busy, and some large orders for the yarn have been given qut.Fine wools are slightly hardening, breds are more saleable.and even cross Spinners of English yarns report rather more inquiry for export, both twofold and single, and quota- 25c.This figure, considering the quality of the crop, is an extreme.We quote nominally 20c@25c, as to quality.The New York Shipping List says :\u2014 There has been a brisk export demand for England, with liberal sales here and in the interior for London, and *the market, in consequence, has shown a firm tone.The brewing demand is moderate.We quote choice new State 26/@27 cents, medium do.24/@26¢, low to fair do.20@23c, and Yearlings 23@25c.A few Eastern are on their way here and are quoted 20@25c.\u201d Iron AND Harpware\u2014The current feeling in the pig iron market is expressed in about the same form as last week\u2014that is, quiet.Buyers are making a fair enquiry for most brands, but are only ready to urchase small lots, as if they see nothing in the situation to warrani investment against the future.Quotations are slightly amended to conform to sales made on a somewhat easier basis, Warrants are cabled at 463 3d, but the market has been affected by a strike among coal miners.By private cable we are informed that stocks mn Glasgow are steadily accumulating at the rate of over 1,000 tons per week, which tends to counteract the effect of the strike.At this port considerable quantities of iron have arrived during the week, a fair proportion of which have gone into yards.A weak point in the situation is to be found in the fact that makers on the other side are beginning to send cousign- ments.The finished iron market may be written firm and unchanged, without new developments Tinplates are firmer.The feature in this department is the scarcity of coke wasters, which are in request.Charcoals have movel out fairly well at $5 @ $5.25 for I.C.,, as to quantity.Cokes are at $435 @ $440.Outward freights on metals from Liverpool have advanced to 15s.Cunada plates continue in good demand on the basis of $3.10 for round lots.Ingot tin is weaker.London cabled at £93 15s, while Straits ingots here are 3c lower at 23c.Copper is quiet and unchanged.London cabled at £68 10s for best selected ingots.Lead is dull and weak at $3.75@$3.80.The devel opment of the general hardware movement has proved satisfactory, and most dealers

grades.There has been a slight increase in the movement, principally on country account.In an export way some large sales have been effected, which have perceptibly diminished the stock of some kinds, with a consequent accession of cheerfulness in the views of dealers.The export outlet in the direction of the United States is satisfactory, and has produced something like scarcity in some grades, notably common sidings and good strips.Lathe and shingles continue firm.It is said that the cut prior to À ust 1 has been placed out of reach.On all the standard goods sellers\u2019 views are more

with a decline of 4¢ per lb.At Acer & Kennedy\u2019s yards no transactions on'spot were reported.We quote export cattle 43e @ Sc per |b.live weight as to quality.Export sheep were firm at 44c @ 42c per live weight.Hogs were offered at 52c @ Gc per lb.live weight as to quality.A large sup- lv of butcher\u2019s cattle was offered for the focal market at 3c @ 4}c per 1b.live weight as to quality.At Viger market the receipts were large, about 500 head of beef cattle being offered.These met a fair demand at steady prices, 3c @ 436 per lb.live weight as to quality.There was about 800 head of sheep and lambs offered, prices ranging from $4 @ $8.50 each for sheep and $2.50 @ $4.50 for lambs, as to quality.John Swan & Son\u2019s weekly report, dated October 5, says :\u2014There was a very good display of home-fed cattle in Edinburgh this week, the trade for which, though scarcely so animated, was still fairly satisfactory.In Glasgow home supplies were unusually short and, with few exceptions, of a very moderate class, Those adapted for best buyers sold readily and well everything under this made less money, hence in the open market, after the top descriptions were cleared, slow sales were effected.The Scotch markets, gene rally, this week, indicate first-class qualities of all kinds worth as good price, anything under that is difficult to sell at less money.In Eugland, London has been dall throughout the week; the restrictions upon Liverpool have caused the Midland county markets to fluctuale materially, and quotations are, therefore, not reliably quotable.In the sheep markets here numbers have been large but, generally speaking, quality deficient; choice sorts, both sheep and lambs, adapted for the best buyers, have fully maintained last week\u2019s prices, all other descriptions are decidedly lower with a bad finish.Foreign supplies have been large, comprising 300 States cattle at Yorkville, which met a better trade at from 9s 3d to, in.some cases, 93 9d per stone; from Canada 750 cattle of a useful sort, conjointly taken for butchers and feeders, the market for this class of stock closing weakly, those bought by feeders being taken at resent market value to slaughter.From anada also 1,000 fat sheep and lambs, which made a middling trade, the former making 8d to 83d per 1b.; 300 were sold in a lot at 30s, unprofitable to the shippers.From Denmark 200 cattle of a middling class, which consequently made bad prices.In store stock recent high prices have not been maintained.Some counties in England, from which hitherto a large demand has existed, are closed, and there appears to be a general retaliation amongst local authorities all over the country, difficult to understand, to those engaged in the trade, and extremely oppressive to the agricultural interest generally.This is evinced by the opening of different counties suited to their particular requirements, and the sooner that an amalgamated council, Laving for its object the general interest of the country, is formed, the better.2,800 sheep from Ireland met a not more than ordinary demand.Best home beef, 10s 6d, In some cases 10s 9d; secondary, 933d fo 9s 6d; inferior 8s 3d to 8s 6d; Canadian, 8s 9d to 9s 3d per stone.Best mutton 104d, In extreme cases 104d; secondary, 8d per lb.Lambs, if good, dear, but are now virtually out of season.Fat calves and pigs are both dearer.The fat markets have closed with a fair clearance.' \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 rare QUEBEC MARKETS.QueBkc, Ogtober 18.LUMBER\u2014No new features have presented themselves in

wood to the extent of other seasons at this time.A couple of rafts are reported sold during the week, but prices have not transpired.Rafts, however, show no improvement on previous transactions.Frergars\u2014The arrival of ocean tonnage has been brisk during the week and the balance of our fall fleet are now in port.The bulk of vessels were, however, char tered on the other

List, in giving the spirit of the Mar ois.says ;\u2014< There has been no appreciable change in the condition and tendencies of general trade during the three days.The volume of wholesale business keeps up to about recent proportions and there have been no disturbances of a serious nature, The few small failures announced have been due to individual short comings rather than to general causes, and they are therefore not indicative of unsoundness of trade, which lias rarely ever been conducted upon so conservative a basis.The bank clearings of most of the leading cities continue to show a decrease, measured by the corresponding period last year, those for this city being 16.6 per cent.less, and for twenty six leading cities outside of New York 7.4 per cent less.Among the cities showing an increase are Cincinnati 25 per cent.New Orleans 2.2 per cent., Providence 19.4 per cent, Kansas City 4.9 per cent., Cleveland 4.8 per cent., Peoria 13.8 per cent., Memphis 33.9 per cent, Springfield 19.9 per cent., and Syracuse 8.7 per cent.But the bank exchanges can hardly be regarded as indicative of the volume of current business; millions of dollars\u2019 worth of goods may be sold this week to be paid for next month, or four months from now, and it is obvious that this would not affect the exchanges of the banks for the current week ; such exchanges are more likely to be affected by tie amount of goods sold on credit a few months ago, and now falling due, but this is so mixed up by the current cash transactions that the statistics for a single week are not a reliable index of the state of trade ; but for a eeries of months, or for a year, their comparative exhibit is of more importance.Both spot Cotton and futures are again lower.Refined, Petroleum is firm and

AT.Galt, Sir Alex.Campbell, Hon.J.A.Chapleau and others.The dinner given last evening to Sir Hector Langevin'at the Windsor was a brilliant affair, and drew forth a very large attendance of that gentleman\u2019s friends, political and otherwise.Sir Hector has, since the death of Sir George E.Cartier, been the most conspicuous figure in Quebec politics, and has recently developed qualities which mark him as one of the likely candidates for the future leadership of the Liberal-Conservative party.Sir Hector native of the city of Quebec, where he was born fifty-seven yeers ago.He entered early into the profession of journalism and was called to the bar in 1850, and in 1857 was first returned for the county of Dor chester to the Quebec Assembly.From that time to the present, with the exception of the two years from 1874 to 1876, he has been in public life, and has been 1den tified with all the great political movements of the day.He was a delegate to the Charlottetown Conference of 1864, the Quebec Conference and the London Conference of 1866-7, and is thus completely identified with the Union of the Provinces.He has filled a number of important offices both in old Canada and since Confederation, aud now occupies the office of Minis ter of Public Works, a position of the highest unportance, wigeh brings him into contact with the people of all the provinces more than any other office would do.Sir Hector is a man of affable manners, a good speaker, a loyal man, and as a reward for his public services has been honored by Her Majesty with the Companionship of the Bath and a Knight Commandership of the Order of St.Michael and St.George.Probably, however, he will value these honors less than the appreciation of his friends in Montreal, as shown by the grand banquet of which he was the recipient last evening.THE DINNER LAST NIGHT.The large dining hall of the Windsor Hotel presented a brilliant appearance when 8 o\u2019clock arrived and the guests had taken their seats at the tables.The fine hall, which needs nothing to add to its noble appearance, was ueatly decorated with evergreens and the flags of all nations, the tri-color uniting with the Union Jack of Old England and the Stars and Stripes of the United States.In the centre of the hall was hung a maguificent festoon of evergreens, while in the rear of the chair was placed on a pedestal a life-like bust of the Minister of Public Works, on each side of which hung the Union Jack and the tri-color, surmounted by the arms of the Dominion.Over 400 guests sat down to the well laid tables, and the scene presented was a very brilliant one.His Worship Mayor Deaudiy ocoupiod tho chair and was suppdtted on his right by by the guest of the evening, Sir Hector Langevin, C.B., K.C.M.G., Hon.A.W.MeLelan, Minister of Marine and Fish.er:es, Hon.John Costigan, Minister of Inland Revenue, Hon.J.\u201d A.Mousseau, Premier of Quebec, Hon.L.O.Taillon, Speaker of the Quebec Hcuse, Hon.Senator Ogilvie, Mr.O.Perrault, Vice- Consul of France, Thos.White, M.P., and on his left by Sir Alex.Campbell, Minister of Justice, Hon, Mr.Carling, Postmaster-General, Hon.J.A.Chapleau, Secretary of State, Hon.Senator Ferrier, S.Bethune, Q.C., Hon, Mr.Wurtele, Provincial Treasurer of Quebec, Hon.Judge Armstrong, and others.The vice-chair men were Sir A.T.Galt, Hugh McLennan, C.J.Doherty, H.Bulmer, Jas.O\u2019Brien, John S.Hall, E.Murphy, A.Gelinas and 8S.Rivard.The menu was got up in the Windsor\u2019s best style, and was discussed to the satisfaction of all.During dinner the 65th orchestra played a number of spirited selections in fine style.After full justice had been done to the eatables, His Worship rose ahd announced that telegrams had been received from Hon.Frank Smith, Dr.Grandbois, M.P., Mayar Mackintosh, M.P., Hon.E.J.Flynn, P.Baskerville, M.P.P., G.Amyot, M.P., and others, expressing regret at their unavoidable abuence.Hon.Mackenzie Bowell was also prevented from being present by his father\u2019s death.Hon.J.H.Pope, Sir Joha A.Macdonald, Sir Leonard Tilley and Hon.D.L.Macpherson also expressed their regrets at being unavoidably prevented from being present at the gathering.His Worship also read a Jetter from Hon.A.P.Caron, Minister of Militia, regretting his inability to attend through the \u201cillness of Madame Baby, whose death was every moment expected.He then proposed the first toast of the evening, \u201cHer Majesty the Queen,\u201d which was honored with enthusiasm and the National Anthem.The toast of © The Prince of Wales,\u201d next proposed, was also learti- ly received ; \u2018\u2018 God\u2019 bless the Prince of Wales\u201d being sung.\u2018The Governor- General \u201d was received with loud applause and drunk with honors.The \u201cArmy, Navy @nd Volunteers \u201d was next honored, the band playing the British Grenadiers.MR.J.A.OUIMET, Q.C., M.P., on being called to respond to the toast, ex- ressed his regret that the Minister of Miitia was not present himself to reply, as he was sure that distingnished gentleman wonld have fulfilled the duty much better than he.He, however, would return thanks for the honor paid the Army, Nayy and Volunteers.The volunteers were the national army of Canada [loud applause], and in them was to be found the foundation of a true Canadian nationality.Among their ranks were to be found patriotism, valour and all that made a nation great.Their volunteers were sometimes laughed at, but what, he asked, would Canada be without her volunteers [loud applause].Bot he thought that the Chairman had not altogether observed- Military rules and regulations when he proposed the toast, or he would have called upon his senior, Lieutenant-Col.Stevenson [applause].LIEUT.-COL, A.A.STEVENSON, who was received with loud applause, also expressed his regret at the absence of the Inister of Militia.He would say on behalf of the militia of Canada that they had In them a body of men devoted to the ser- Ylce and determined to do their duty at all \u2018âzards and at all times, and while ready 10 prevent insurrection in our midst they , would be equally prepared to prevent invasion from without the Dominion.The militia of Montreal, however, had a peculiar interest in the guest of the evening, because he was at the head of Public Works, and there was now in Montreal a public work that was rapidly approaching completion, and where future generations of volunteers he hoped would be trained and drilled [loud applause].He agaiu expressed his pleasure at responding to the toast.Our Guest.The Chairman, in proposing the next toast, that of \u201cThe Guest of the Evening,\u201d said that this gathering made any further remarks on his part unnecessary.(Ap plause.) The toast was received with the greatest applause, the whole company cheering, while tiie band played \u201c Vive La Canadienne,\u201d : , SIR HECTOR LANGEVIN was received with tremendous applause.When the gyation had subsided Sir Hector said it would be affectation on his part if he did not at once express how he felt on this manifestation of confidence in him.It was a demonstration by the citizens of Montreal, whom he had so long known and who had always shown the greatest conii- dence in him.(Applause) He noticed with pleasure that both Conservatives and Liberals were gathered around the tables to do honor to one of the representatives of the French element in the Dominion Cabinet.He thanked them from the bottom of his heart for this.manifestation aud he was conviuced that if his leader, Sir John A.Macdonald, (applause) was present he would also return them his heartiest thanke, for this he was sure was not only a mark of respect and confidence in himself personally, but also in the administration of which\u2019 he formed a part since they had been in power.(Applause.) When he saw around him s0 many of his colleagnes, so many of the members of the Dominion Parliament, and so many of those who had so often supported and defended their Government, and had voted for the great measures of Sir John A.Macdonald, and many also were proud to recognize as their le=der the Premier of Quebec, (applause), he asked himself if this demonstration was meant for him alone, but if it was not meant more for a mark of confidence in the Government of which he was a member.(Applause.) He felt thal he would have to do much more in the future before he would deserve aft these marks of affection and esteem.He remembered the day.when he had the honor of serving under that great statesman, the honored, the esteemed and loved leader of the French-Canadian element\u2014the late Sir George Etienne Cartier [applause]; and he felt that this demonstration was in some respects intended as a tribute to the memory of that great man.[Applause.] He had eerved in many offices since then.He had spent twenty- six of the best years of his life in the service of his country, and the best recompense that Le would wish for was for their approbation and approval, which, he felt, this demonstration was sufiicient to show.It seemed to say to him, \u201ccontinue your services, they are recognized.\u201d He thanked them for himself, he thanked them on behalf of his colleagues, \u2014 for what thev did for him they did for his colleagues, and more especially for their leader, Sir John A.Macdonald\u2014that great head of the Conservative party.(Loud applause.) For 40 years, Sir John had led the party, and though he ight have made mistakes, no one, he contended, could deny that he had rendered great services which the country would not soon forget; and their earnest hope was that God would long spare him to the country.(Loud applause.) This was the desire of all his colleagues, by whom he was as much admired as he was respected.He referred to the great measures that had been inaug- uratel during the administration of Sir John Maecconald, the Act of Confederation, the construction of the Canadian Pacitic Railway, the National Policy, and the adoption of measures for the furtherance of immigration, and spoke of cach in detail.Referring to the first great measure he contended that Confederation was necessary to create harmony between the different Provinces of the Dominion, which at the time of its inauguration were rent with dissensions, which at once ceased and the country became one.[Loud applause.] It broke the varrier between the various Provinces and welded them into a Confederation, that he was assured would make them in time one of the great nations of the world.[applause.] The National Policy was also necessary under the circumstances in which it was inaugurated.At that time the public revenue was not sufficient to meet the expenses of the Government of the country and the works that had to be executed, and the credit of the country was kecoming worse daily.Under these circumstances it was necessary to make a change in the fiscal policy of the Dominion,and the\u2019great question was how best to save the country from its unfavorable condition.The Government of the country, therefore, supported by the great majority of the people, thought it best to make a change in the fiscal policy and to inaugurate the movement known as the system of Protection.What were the resuits of this system ?Instead of having a worthless credit and a revenue not able to meet the expenses of the administration of the country, they possessed now a revenueable to mect the expenses, and to allow of the construction of great public works; and, instead of there being a deficit annually they had a considerable surplus, which last year amounted to six millions and a quarter [loud applanse].This had not gone into the pockets of the ministers, but inte the public treasury, and allowed of the construction of great and negeseary works.The cost of the Canadian Pacific Railway would be fully paid for, aud their successors would not be bur- deued with any portion of the debt.Some might ask, was the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway necessary ?By the act of union with British Columbia the Dominion was bound to construct the Canadian Pacific, to connect the provinces of the west with the central portions of the Dominion, They were bound to carry out this obligation because they had hope in the future and hoped to make out of their country a great and powerful nation.(Loud applause.) In fifty years, he was convinced, the Canadian people would be a great nation (continued applause); and when this time arrived he was assured that it would not be raid that the founders of Confederation were not actuated by patriotism and zeal in the service of their country.The Canadian Pacific Railway was a step in the formation of the nation ; it united widely separated sections of the Dominion and furnished means of communication to emigrants coming into the country.[Applause.] The government.were making energetic efforts to increase this emigration, and the C., P.R.played an important part in the movement.But they had another mission to perform ; they had to bring back into the country their compatriots who had left 1t ; and he would say with pleasure that the government intended to take energetic measures in this direction.(Loud applause.) What, however, were the results of all these great measures of which he had spoken?The result was that they had created harmony in the country, the people were happy and satisfied, and, though they might have differences of opinion, yet when the great interests of the country were concerned he felt sure that both Conserva- tives and Liberals would join hand in hand.(Loud applause.) = Their policy had re-established the credit of the ccun- try.Some years ago the country had to pay 7 or 8 per cent.on their money, but now they were sought after to take 1t at four per cent.What was the reason of this ?It was because Canada had never repudiated its debts, and their credit was, by a wise policy, assured, This was one of the great result of their administration.He felt sure that their prosperity would continue in abundance, and he believed that next year the Government would have a surplus of three or four millions, (Applause.) He referred to the marvelous progress which Montreal had made, as a city, of late vears.He remembered the time, some thirty years back, when it was a much smaller city, and he was acquainted with most of its citizens.But now all was changed ; it bad become a vast and influential community.To whom was this progress due?First, to those princes of commerce, who -had labored in 1ts midst, to the splendid natural situation of.the city, and then to the benefits of the National Policy.(Applause.) Montreal in 1871 had a population of107,225 ; in 1881 its popu'ation numbered 140,747,an increase during the ten vears of 33,522, or a perzentage of 31.21.This would show the great progrese made by the city in population.(Applause).The progress in other directions had been equally as great.In 1871 the industrial and manufacturing establishments in Montreal numbered 1,104; in 1881 their number had increased to 1,763, an increase of 659, or a percentage of 60.In 1871 the number of employes was 21,175, and in 1881 35,209\u2014an increase of 14,034, or a percentage of 66.The wages in 1871 amounted to $5,195,465 ; in 1881 they amounted to $9,395,337\u2014an increase of $4,199,872, or a percentage of 80.The value of raw material used by these establishments was in 1871 $19,023,062, and in 1881 $33,- 994,249, an increase of $14,956,687, or a percentage of 78.The value of the articles produced was, in 1871, $32,727,946; in 1881, $55,131,181, an increase of $22,403,- 255, or a percentage of 68.This was what the National Policy had done for Montreal and was this not \u201csufficient answer that such a system was necessary?(Loud applause.)\u201d Bul they had looked at the past of the country ; what, lie would ask them, wag to be done in the future?The success of the past should inspire them with confidence in their institutions.Let then continue in harmony and join land in hand to assure the prosperity of their country.(Applause.) In all representative forms of Government parties were indispensable, but they should all have as their common object the good of their country.(Applause.) He urged them to remain firm in their principles, acting in the spirit of the motto, * principle before all, principle above all.\u201d This was a principle that the leaders of their great party had always laid down in the past as a great power, and he hoped they, in the future, would remain true to it.He hat one thing further to say, and he helped it would go from one end of the country to the other.He wished to have it distinctly understood that the Province of Quebec was not an obstacle to the progress of the other Provinces.(Loud and continued applause.) That Province had rights with the other Provinces ; it would only seek its rights and ask that justice should be done to all.He would ask if this was not the sentiment of all thezrepresentatives of that Province ?[Voices\u2014Yes! yes!] He concluded his exhaustive address by again urging harmony and good feeling among all classes and sections of the country, and added that he would wish to give expression to a few remarks in English.Sir Hector in English.Sir Hector Langevin then spoke as follows in English :\u2014 Mr.Mayor, honorable gentlemen and gentlemen, I would not be true to myself, I'would not be true to my colleagues, I would not be true to my parly, I would not be true Lo you, gencemen, ir Tolivuld Leoi tate for a moment, or delay one moment to offer you, who speak the English language, my most sincere and cordial thanks for this great, this magnificent and princely demonstration, which you have prepared and given here ig my honor.(Applause.) Through the country, and probably oui- side, when pepule hear of this demonstration, will it not be said that it was quite natural that the French-Canadians, whose blood is the same as that which flows in my own veins, should honor the man whom they put at their head, and whom they have been supporting solong?But when they hear that you who speak the English language, you who have nothing in common with me in origin, in language and many of of you in religion, that having nothing in common with me in these respects you should meet me here and grant me'the same honors that my French-Canadian coun\u2018rymen grant me, they will enquire why isthat?What can be the cause of such a demonstration.Gentlemen, I understand fully the reason of your gathering round these tables and honoring my humble self\u2014if I may use the words\u2014in the magnificent way in which you are doing this evening.True it is, there 19 not perhaps in those present at this demonstration a man who is more attached than myself of ny race, to my religion or my language.[Applause]; and I might add that there cannot be a man in this demonstration who is more attached than I am to that mother country of mine which was that to my forefathers.When I see old France suftering and unhappy, I must say I grieve with France; when I see France glorious and happy and wrosperous I rejoice at her glory, Ler prosperity and her happiness.But that does not allow me to forget that, though I am of French origin, though my forefathers came from France, I am here in this Canada of ours, this dependency of England, and that here the sovereign of this country is that gracious Queen and that most deserving Queen of England\u2014 (loud appiause long continued)\u2014tbat great Queen of England whom you all respect and love.(Cheers), And why should we love and respect that great Queen of Great Britain?Because not only did she protect our interests, but we know how good she has been asa queen, as a wife, and as a mother.And, gentlemen, we know it by the example that we have had under our eyes, the example she has sent tous, in the persons of some of her most dear children.The other day you were feting and honoring her gracious daughter, 1 think, in this very room where we are now assembled, when you showed respect to the daughter who has made herself so gracious and who was so beloved in this country.(Loud cheering.) And, gentlemen, we may be attached to the-country of our forefathers, but our allegiance is due tothat Queen of Great Britain under whose auspices we have the liberties which we enjoy, under whose auspices we have the great Confederation Act which, gentlemen, has protected your interests and all our interests.And, when 1 was sent to England to act with my late lamented friend, Sir George Cartier (cheers,) and we had with us that goed friend of ours, Sir Alexander Galt [Hear, hear], gentlemen, we had in our special care the great interest not only other provinces, but especially of the Province of Quebec.Aud, though we were in a majority\u2014my colleague, = Sir George Cartier, and myself\u2014did we forget that special interest of the minority in the Province of Quebec, so largely represented here this evening?Did we forget that you wanted your separate school svstem?Did we not recognize your rights, under the Confederation Act, to have your separaie schools?We went further than that, gentlemen.We said to ourselves that the Legislative Assembly of tnis Province of Quebec will be composed in a very large majority of French-Canadians and Roman Catholics, and, perhaps, the minority of the province, which is composed of men of another origin and a great many belonging to other creeds\u2014perkhaps that minority might feel uncomfortable and might, at a certain period of our history, be damaged \u2014 if I might use that word\u2014 y the legisfation of that Legislative Assembly\u2014not willingly, but unwittingly.Well, we said, let us provide a machinery by which a remedy way be found for a case of that kind, and we Instituted that second chamber, which so many think we should not favor.But, gentlemen, you, that winority, found yourselves u few years ago that that was a good chamber; because, at a time when you thought that the Legislative Assembly, in a moment of haste, had passed a measure or bill that might affect your rights, you went to that second chamber, that Legislative Council, and asked them to allow that bill to stand over ; you asked them to delay the measure, in order that it might be re-considered, and that the powers that were might have a chance to meet your views as far as possible.(Hear, hear.) And what was the result?It was the last day of the session, and did not the Government of the day Eive you satisfaction ?Did they not recoz- nize that there might be something in that bill?And did they not concede to you a remedy by which you thought\u2014as you should think\u2014that measure, as finally passed, was one that could not affect vour interests ?Therefore, though that chamber might have effect only once in a hundred years, it was sufficient to justify its establishment.(Hear, hear.) And, gentlemen, if we established that Legislative Council by that Act of Confederation, did we not also establish the other great Chamber, the Senate of the Dominion ?Gentlemen, what has been said about that Senate ?It has been said that it was a useless chamber, and that it is the fiffh wheel of à carriage, of the carriage of the State.But, let us examine, and see whether that is justified or not.Now, when you erect a beautiful mansion, do you not put over that mansion a lightning rod ?You go to a great deal of expense to prevent that mansion from being Injured by lightning or electricity.It may be forty or fifty years before the electricity will ~ strike that lightning rod.You nevertheless keep it there, and go to great expense in keeping it there ; and when the lightning rod is struck you see that you were justified in putting the lightning rod there.(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, takeit in another way.You have that beautiful mausion of yours which you have erected, and you take precious care to close your doors and lock them at night.And why do ;you do that ?Had you burglars in your house before ?No.But, you think that if you were to leave those doors open, or if there were no doors at all, the burglars might pay you a nocturnal visit, not very pleasant.You keep the doors and windows and fastenings perfectly tight, because you fear the danger that may occur, perhaps, only once in fifty years.Another thing.Yon are in good health; and what do youdo?You say to yourself, © I must insure my life.\u201d And, why do you insure your life?Is it because you know you will die ro-morrow or today?No.Itisin case of death.It will occur one day or another; and you pay money for perhaps thirty or forty or fifty years; and you say, \u201cI am afraid of death, and want a guarantee against the etfects of death ; and you insure your life as a precaution in case of death.Then, there is another example again.We expend,\u2014and your representatives consent to it,\u2014a large sum of money per year.For what purpose?To maintain the army which my honorable and gallant friend, Mr.Ouimet, just now spoke about.You keep up that army at considerable expenses 1t because you require it to-morrow ?You may not want it for fifty years.The day, however, may come when the army may be required, although it may not be for a great number of years.But, do you hear any one say it is useless?No.You keep it np.And that Senate established by the Confederation Act, and which was a condition of the Confederation, should be maintained, for the reasons which I have given you: and for another good reason.It is this, The Province of Quebec\u2014and I have no dcubt the Maritime Provinceswould not have consented to Confederation if they had not had a counterpoise in the Senate.They kuew that in the House of Commons they were granting a representation based on population, and they knew on the other hand that by having an equal representation of 24 members in the Senate they were guaranteed, in that way, against any undue encroachment on the part of the House of Commons ; and the Senate was established to protect the minority in the provinces, just as the Legislative Council in the Province of Quebec was established to protect the English and Protestant population of the Province of Quebec.[Hear, hear.] Gentlemen, I am afraid I am extending my remarks too far, but I wish to call your attention to one point, which 18 this, that by the great works that we have done and are doing in the Dominion, we have induced not only immigrants to come in from the old countries, but have also induced our own countrymen of all origins, who had gone to the United States, to come back; and thus the population of the country has been increasing very larzely by that means.But this is not the only way the population in this country has been increasing.There is a natural way of increasing the population in this country.And let me \u2018tell yon a little anecdcte about that.I was called upon to go and visit a portion of New Brunswick.Before leaving the Pr vince of Quebec, I Leard by the newspap that there had been four families in the Province of Quebec that had been blessed with twins, { thus making an increase of eight in the four families.I thought that was a good omen for the Province of Quebee ; and I eaid, \u201cTlie province of Quebec is holding her owr in this respect.\u201d When I got to Buctouch:, N.B., however, I was informed that there had been tripletsin that parish.I began to fret aboutmy own province.(Laughter) I feared about my own province when I saw that triplets had appeared in New Brunswick.We had ouly twins ; and Buctouche had triplets ! (Laughter.) But only a few days since Nova Scotia was determined not to be behind New Brunswick, and in Nova Scotia triplets alo saw the light of day.[Laughter.] I was very much more afraid for my own province then.But while I was fretting, that powerful Province Ontario, that ambitious = Province Ontario, attracted my attention ; and I saw, with astonishment, that in the city of Lonlon, which is so welt represented by the Postmaster-General, (cheers) that in tlat city of London there had been quartettes.(Loud laughter and applause) And se, now, gentlemen, I am really afraid for the future of the Province of Quebec, and I call upon you not to forget what I have just said, and let me tell you, you cannot &fford to rest on your laurels, (Renewed laughter and applause) Gentlemen, I wish, before concluding my remarks, to call your attention to certain statistics, that are very important to you, especially the commercial portion of the population of Montreal.I am afraid, however, that my remarks might earry me \u2018office.too far; and therefore I will not read these statistics, but I will hand them to our friends, the members of the press, those gentlemen who always work so lale at night, and who work so well, and who are the right arm of then Government of the country by dint of their industry and their perseverance and their zeal.I will pass these statistics to these gentlemen and you will see that as soon as this report is made that not only the population of Montreal has increased largely, and not only have the manufactures and industries increased, and also the arrivals of vessels, but the imports and exports aud the excise and customs and post-oflice revenues, and, L may say, the deposits in the Post-Office Savings Banks have greatly increased, and that last statistic is one \u2018 which I want particularly to insist upon and to call your attention to.I want you to notice the great increase in the deposits in the Government Post Office Savings Bank during the last four years, because this, gentlemen, shews you, at all events, and you must see it at once, that the earnings of the poor, the earnings of the mechanics, the earnings of the laborers, have been increased largely, and that these men must be prosperous, that they must be content and happy, when, after expending all that is wanted for their comfort and living they have beén able to pat aside during that period such a large sum of money.Gentlemen, let me with these remarks thank, especially you that speak the English language, for this demonstration.You have truly thought that, though not of your religion aud fanguage, I could represent you in the councils of the nation that 1 could represent you fairly in the government of the country.I would not remain in the Government of my country if I were only the representative of one race.{Cheers.] I am not merely proud of enjoying the confidence of a very large majority of my French-Canadian countrymen,\u2014not only of the Conservative party, but,\u2014and I acknowledge it with pleasure, \u2014a great many of those differing from us in politics ;\u2014yet notwithstanding that I must add that Tam most happy to say that I feel by your demonstration this evening that that confidence in me is not limited to French Canadians, but that you who speak the Engjish language also grant and repose in me that confidence [loud } cheers].Gentlemen, I hope the day will not come when yon will withdraw that confidence from me.The confidence vou give me is a sacred trust; and whether I am in the Government or out of the Government of my country you may be sure that my efforts shall always be in the interest of my countrymen, whether of French, English, Scotch, Irish or any other origin, and that your interests will ever be taken care of, and that at all times you may rely on my exertions and on the power I may be able to exercise in the Government or in Parliament in furtherance of those interests.I thank you once more, gentlemen, for this grand ~ demonstration.[Loud and enthusiastic cheering and waving of handkerchiefs, etc.] DOMINION MINISTERS.Sir A.T.Galt then rose, and after the applause created by his appearance had subsided, he proceeded in able terms to propose the tcast of the \u201cDominion Ministers.\u201d He referred to the past services which Sir Hector Langevin had rendered to the country and the singleness of purpose and great ability he had displayed in all his public actions.Sir Alexander concluded his remarks by coupling with the toast the names of Sir Alex.Campbell and Hon.Mr.Chapleau.Sir Alex.Campbell replying, dwelt upon the general services rendered by his colleague, the Minister of Public Works, with whom ne had been associated for many years.He referred to the feeling that ex- 1sted in some quarters against the Senate of the Dominion, which some said was unnecessary and useless.He thought, however, that the great majority of the people of the Dominion would not\u201d soncur in this opinion [applause].He referred to the course pursued by the Senate at the time when the McKenzie Government came into Mr.McKenzie had been returned to power and though it was in the power of the Senate to make things very troublesome, they felt that it was their duty to bow to the will of the people, and from beginning to end of the Mackenzie Administagtion the action of the Senate had been characterized by moderation and forbearance.(Applause.) He instanced several cases to show thie.It had been said that there were eot enough Reformers in the Senate ; he would be frank and say that he hoped that there would be more reformers in the Senate.(Applause.) He concluded by again expressing his pleasure at being present to do honor to his distinguished colleague, HON.MR.CHAPLEAU, who received a perfect ovation on rising, being received by the band playing ¢ For he\u2019s a jolly, good fellow,\u201d said that he was a very young member of the Government, and he had forgotten his lesson book for a (Laughter.) But he hoped to learn from the lessons of the past.(Applause) He sought to represent in the Cabinet the love of patriotism and of sacrifices for one\u2019s country.His desire was to work for the good of the country, to aid those who were wiser than himself, and to help to make the nation the great and powerful one of which the guest of the evening had spoken.(Applause.) He denied emphatical y that there were any dissensions in the Dominion Cabinet; it might not be a model government in some respects, but it was a model government in the fraternity and good feeling that existed between all its members.(Loud applause.) The hon.gentleman concluded an eloquent address by a grace ful allusion to the departure of the Marquis of Lorne and the Princess Louise and the arrival of the new Governor-General, and resumed hi- seat amid loud applause.Mr.Hugh McLennan, in proposing the toast of THE °° PARLIAMENT OF GANADA,\u201d spoke in high terms of the nobility and grandeur of the character of the lamented Sir George Etienne Cartier.Had this demonstration of to-night no further significance than a mere honor to a political character, was it not rather an evidence that they recognized in the lieutenant the ualities that had distinguished the chief.He took great pleasure in proposing the toast.political speech.HON, SENATOR OGILVIE, in responding on behalf of the Senate of the Dominion, said that in his opinion men should go to the Senate devoid of any partizanship and vote for all good measures.[Applause.j He referred in favorable terms to the services of Sir Hector Langevin, and expressed the hope that he would long be spared to the country.Messrs.C.J.Coursol, M.P.,and J.J.Curran, M.P., also responded.Mr.C.J.Doherty then proposed the toast of * The Government and the Legislature of Quebec,\u201d which drew forth an able response from Hon.J.A.Mousseau, who referred to the services of the guest to the Province of Quebec.Mr.H.Bulmer proposed the Press, which was responded to by Mr.Jos.Tasse, M.P The Mayor then proposed the toast of « The Ladies,\u201d which drew forth a fitting reply from Mr.J.H.G.Bergeron, M.P.Sir Hector Langevin next rose and proposed the health of the chairman, Mayor Beaudry, and in doing so, said that the fact that His Worship the Mayor had been clected time after time by the people of ficent recognition of his merit.(A pplause.) His Worship having returned thanks, the gathering was brought to a termination shortly before two \u2019clock.The Subscribers, The following is a list of the subscribers :\u2014 A\u2014Allard Louis, Archambault F.X., Abbott J.J.C., Hon., Arpin Charles, Archambault J.L., Allan Hugh A., Allan Bryce J., Allan H.Montague, Montreal; Angers E.Panch, Amyot G., Quebec; Armstrong J.Hon,, Armstrong J.de L., Armstrong À.N., Armstrong L.O., Atkins J., Montreal.B\u2014Belanger N., Montreal; Bastien B., St.Vincent de Paul; Beaudry H., Belair A.P., Bomier E., Blanchard L V., Bergeron J.GIL, Beanbicn Louis, Bissonnet A, Montreal; Benoit P.B., M.D; Salut-lfubert; Bergevin C., M.P.P., Beauharnois; Blanchet M.Hon., Quebec; Bethune Strachan, Beaudry J.L.Hon,, Bulmer II.J., Bourque E.J.Dr, Bellemare B., Bourassa J.Bte.et N., Bourassa Noe, Barre J.L., Beauchamp L.E,, Bulmer Henry, Brossard A.H., Bourgouin Naz.H., Bowie D.E, Busteed E.B., Branchaud A., Montreal: Bertrand Charies, Ile Verte; Bzaudet E., Bosse Joseph G., Quebec; Branchette J_ G., Levi; Bourbeau D.E, Bolqy, L.A., Bolduc Joseph, Bisaillon L.J.Brosseau T., Montreal; Beaugrand J.B.H., Iberville; Beaubien A.H., St.Johns; Boivin G., Beaugrand H., Beaudin \u2014., Beaudry Alphonse, Montreal; Brosseau Lieutenant- Colonel, Brisson T.A.Dr., Brossard Julien, Laprairie; Beauchemin A.V.T., St.Hyacinthe;Biack Johu, Black K.,St.Johny; Beaudry P.J.Ubalde, Montreal; Bourbeau J.oO.Victoriaville; Baker lL.1B., Beauharnois; Beaudry J.E., Ste.Jean Baptiste Village; Boivin J.A., Montreal; Booth John B., Baskerville P., M.P.P., Berkett Thomas, Borbridge W.S., Ottawa; Brossard Moise, Brown J.J., Barbeau Henri, Montreal.©C\u2014Champagne C.L., Colbert E.D., Chan teloup E., Cheney!

Herald, a Government journal, in the course of an interesting article on the seizure by the collector of Customs of Montreal of Paine\u2019s and Voltaire\u2019s works, remarks :\u2014 Without anticipating the judgment on that point it is fair to the collector to say that if he wanted to obey the existing law his action was reasonable enough.There is need of more definite rules and definitions in this matter.There are hundreds of books coming into the country more blasphemous than either of those seized.It is hard to understand why Mill should be allowed to come into the country if Kenyon is right or -even if Judge Stephen is correct.And, as is said by the Westminster Review, Strauss\u2019 ¢ Leben Jesu,\u201d Renan\u2019s \u201cLife of Christ,\u201d and Compte\u2019s works are, according to English common law, blasphemous Tibels.But all Canadians who make any pretension to scholarship have read some cr all of these works.Clergymen of culture have them and read them, and those of no culture quote ortho dox opinions of them, and show their hearers that there is nothing in these books.Shelley\u2019s * Queen Mab\u201d was in 1840 de cided to be a blasphemous libel.Certainly the speech of the Wandering Jew in \u201cQueen Mab\u201d must be as offensive to any person as anything in the \u201c Age of Reason.\u201d But who ever heard of a custom house officer refusing to admit Shelley\u2019s ms ?And why should the works of yron, many of whose poems are clearly blasphemous within the meaning of the law, be admitted?And Ingersoll\u2019s lectures, which are not only open to the same objection but insulting to Christian people, come into Canada every day.Itis said that Paine is indecent.But there is an American alleged poet (whom, by the way, Rossetti and many other European critics have pronounced the greatest of American oets), in comparison with whom Paine, ielding and Smollet are as chaste as icicles, and the works of that poet are allowed to come into this country freely.The fact is the law is a humbug on account of its indefiniteness.The customs collectors should be instructed.The question is, who shall instruct them ?A man who has not read all the bad books that are likely to come in does not seem to be in a position to do so, and the man who has read them all is likely to be an unbelieving and more or less immoral and blasphemous individual.We take exception to the opinion that \u201cif the collector wished to obey the \u201cexisting law his action was reasonable \u201cenough.\u201d The collector's action was most unreasonable.He could scarcely have been unaware of the fact that the books referred to could not possibly have been aimed at.He must have known that they were in the public libraries of Canada.He must also have known that the object of the law was to exclude those ephemeral publications which, being lewd and lascivious, have been poured into Canada of late years to the contamination of the private morals and the destruction of the purity of character of the youth of this country.To wreg the law from its proper intent and purpose and to make it an engine for the punishment of free thinkers in religious matters is what the collectors of Customs at Montreal and Toronto have been doing; and if the Government of Canada has not the moral courage to check its officers in their high handed proceedings, it is time the courts gave them to understand , that religious liberty still exists in Canada.Who would want to live in this country with the little officials of a Government spying into their private reading and declaring what they shall read on religious and controversial subjects, and what they shall not read ?How long would a Government last in Canada that would dare to avow such a policy?To say that official action which strikes at the very root of man\u2019s liberties, personal and public, is \u201c reasonable enough\u2019 is a monstrous proposition in this free country in the year of grace 1883.The collector had no right to assume that the law of Parliament was intended to override man\u2019s inalienable rights as understood in this enlightened age.He should not have assumed that Parliament had constituted the servants of the people of Canada the censors of the people in matters of faith and higher morals.He should have hesitated before acting as if Parliament could reverse tlic hand of Time and send us back to those ages when to think for one\u2019s self was regarded as an outrage on the State and the Church, when, in fact, life was scarcely worth the living.Now, let us see on what authority the collectors at Toronto and Montreal have been proceeding.The General Customs Act of 1879, with amendments, says :(\u2014 Chap.3.The gocds enumerated in Schedule D shall not be imported into Canada, under the penalty therein mentioned, and if imported shall be forfeited and forthwith destroyed.Schedule D declares as follows :\u2014 The following articles shall be prohibited to be imported under the penalty of $200, together with the forfeiture of the parcel or package of goods in which the saine may be found, viz.:\u2014 Books, printed papers.drawings, paintings, prints, photographs or representations of any kind of a treasonable or seditious, or of an immoral or indecent character.This is admitted to be the sole authority on which the collectors have been proceeding.Now, there is nothing new in this feature of the law.It has been à provision of every Canadian Customs Act during the present generation, and has been the law of England and America for two hundred years.Referring to past acts, we find in the laws of old Canada, consolidated in 1859, the same provision in the following words :\u2014 The following articles are prohibited to be imported under a penalty of two hundred dollars, together with the forfeiture of the parcel or package of goods in which the same may be found : .Books, Drawings, Paintings and Prints of an immoral or indecent character.At Confederation we were giyen a new Customs Act, and this section of the law of 1859 was incorporated, word for word.It will be noticed that the addition in the Customs Act of 1879 is of these words :\u2014 Printed paper, photographs or representations of any kind, etc.\u2019 a principal object, apparently, being to reach a class of immoral or indecent publications or \u201crepresentations \u201d which could not be classed with \u201cbooks, drawings, paiptings or prints.\u201d Photographs and breastpins were favorite means of introducing indecent pictures, and the law was altered to include these and other indecent and immoral agencies.No Canadian legislator ever fancied that by the additions of 1879 he was giving the Customs officers power to establish a censorship over controversial works or to exclude from Canada books which Parliament had itself brought in and placed in the Parliamentary library; and none except those who were incapable of exercising a sound judgment or desired to magnify the importance of their office would ever have thought.of torturing the law to the purposes to which it has been put by the officials of Toronto and Montreal.As a matter of fact the books which are now tabooed have always passed through the Custom House without challenge, for the excellent reason that there was no law against it.Public opinion and the law have agreed in recognizing them as neither immoral nor indecent within the true meaning of such terms.This matter has been settled by higher authority than that of Customs officials\u2014by that great authority, the public conscience, which has proclaimed religious toleration, the right to think and spegk freely, the right to hold just such opinions as to every man seems most proper.the right to read just such controversial books as he pleases, provided he interferes not with the liberty of others.If these books have been introduced into the Parliamentary Library of Canada, into many semi-public libraries, into the libraries of hundreds of clergymen and of thousands of gentlemen of culture and refinement, and if this has been going on for very many years, how can any collector of Customs at this date venture to class them with \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d publications ?Are \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d works to be found in the quarters we have indicated, and are such books read by the classes of people we have named ?Again, if such books are \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d within the meaning of the law, why have they been allowed to enter Canada under the law?Why were they not suppressed or destroyed long ago ?There has not, at any time, rested the slightest doubt upon the meaning of the law, and it is to be hoped that Customs officials will now be taught that they can not be permitted to do what Parliament itself dare not attempt.We can not agree with the Halifax Herald in saying the law is \u201cindefinite.\u201d The wording of the law is perfectly proper; it is the Custom House official that needs reconstructing, PROFESSOR TANNER ON CANADA.We have received the first sheet of the report on the mission to Canada of Professor Tanner, the senior member of the Royal Agricultural College of England, addressed to the Council of the Institute of Agriculture.Professor Tanner is an author of high reputation on agricultural questions and the object of his visit to Canada was to inquire into the advantages or otherwise which surround emigration to \u2018the Dominion.As he states, the utmost confusion existed in England in the minds of those interested in agriculture as to the true position of affairs in Canada.The reports of the Delegates of the British farmers who had visited Canada \u201cshowed very clearly, that emigration, prudently carried out, gave unbounded facilities for securing a comfortable support, and for the accumulation of profits.The writers of these reports were known to be persons possessing much practical experience, and thoroughly worthy of confidence.The issue of these important reports was soon followed by a large series of letters, and other communications to the press, giving most painful details of what were alleged to be the personal experiences of disappointed emigrants.When an explanation was sought for, as to this conflict of testimony it was then asserted that the delegates bad been hoodwinked by government officials, and taken to selected spots which did not fairly represent the districts in which emigrants would have to settle.It was also alleged that the kind and bospitable treatment which they had received had influenced their judgments, and that their reports were practically valueless in consequence, Statements such as these were received with just indignation by those to whom the delegates were personally known.\u201d Hoping to throw some light upon this conflict of testimony, Professor Tanner states that his enquiry took the form indicated in the following questions, to which this report is intended as a reply :\u2014 First: Why have we had such contradictory reports upon the condition of our emigrants in Canada ?Secondly : Can emigration to Canada be safely recommended, and if so, what facilities exist for the protection and general welfare of our emigrants ?Professor Tanner goes on to state that às soon as it was known that he was about to visit Canada he was favored with various communications, warning him as to the difficulties and losses which had fallen upon settlers in this country, Some of these came from Canada, others from parties in England, and the severest censures were contained in some of these letters upon those who, it way alleged, had misled the public by highly colored reports upon farming in Canada.Singularly enough, none of Dr.Tanner\u2019s numerous correspondents were able to give him any names or addresses of unsuccessful emigrants in Canada, but generally referred him to certain Canadian newspapers for information.The Professor therefore proceeded on his tour in Canada intending to judge for himself by personal observation as to the truth or falsity of these stories.He travelled fully five thousand miles within Canadian territory and, as he says, \u201c J had most favorable opportunities for coming in contact with settlers, not only in the older Provinces of the Dominion, butgn Manitoba, and even beyond its borders, in the Assiniboia District of the North West Territories.Throughout the whole of this lengthened tour of inspection I found those settled upon the lands happy, prosperous, and healthy.After conversing freely with large numbers of these settlers, I am able to state that I did not meet with a single instance in which they were not fairly successful, contented, and full of hope for the future.They worked hard, it is true, but that labor was sweetened by the knowledge that they were improving their own property.Their personal requirements were easily provided for by the aid of a rich and productive soil, their families were growing up around them in the enjoyment of health, and without any anxiety being felt as to their future success in life.These facts, which came under my own observation, compel me therefore to\u2019 state that the unfavorable reports upon Canada which have been published in this country do not fairly represent the condition of affairs in Canada.\u201d On the other hand, he adds that he is equally bound to state that the reports of the Delegates are substantially correct and worthy of confidence, and that in his opinion there is no justification whatever for the attacks which have been made upon them.Professor Tanner soon discovered the origin of the unfavorable reports in regard to Canada which had found their way to England.They came from Western Land Agents whose interest it was to turn the tide of emigration from Canada to the United States, and he gives the follow:ng illustration of how Canada is misrepresented by those \u2018parties, which we quote : One illustrative fact may be useful at this point, although it is but one of ten thousand.1 shall have occasion hereafter to draw attention to the very successfnl settlement which has been established 1n the North-West of Canada, by the assistance rendered to her tenantry by Lady Gordon-Cathcart.As the first detachment of her settlers were travelling to their destination, it became necessary for them to pass by railway through a portion of the United States, in consequence of the Canadian Pacific Railway being then incomplete.In doing so they were met by a number of persons who were to all appearance ordinary fellow travellers.These urged them to remain in the States, whilst the extraordinary accounts they gave of the North-West of Canada filled their minds with disappointment and fear.Some said they could not escape the fearful floods of the spring, others assured them they would be baked by the fearfully hot summer, whilst another group knew perfectly well that they would be frozen in winter.As they proceeded they gradually discovered the trick which had been played upon them, and they laughed at the doubts which had been so easily raised.¢ And now you have settled here, what do you think of the place?\u201d I enquired of one of the party.\u201c Aye, ahr he reverently replied, it is really a Godly country.\u201d Incidents such as theseare simply numberless in their variety and form, for there are large numbers of persons who are thus employed throughout the emigration season, and whose duty it is to persuade emigrants to settle in some other district than that to which they are journeying, and these agents are remunerated according to their success.In the instance which I have quoted, the deception was attempted in the United States, Puc I need scarcely say that there is no monopoly of virtue on either side of the boundary line, for if it is six to one, it is half a dozen to the other.This class of misrepresentation is quite of the common rauk, but the same object is carried out with greater delicacy and refinement when those of a higher grade have to be decoyed.Here also we find additional interests influencing the work, and whenever the full history is revealed of the correspondence upon Canadian matters which has this year caused so much anxiety and fear in Great Britain and Ireland, it will be a source of surprise to know how much of it was manufactured, within half a mile of the London Stock Exchange.Let, then, a veil be allowed to fall upou the past, in the hope that a successful trick may not be repeated.The moral of the tale is tolerably clear, for it indicates that in future the acceptance of any such narratives of failure should be made dependent upon our knowledge of the persons making such statements.Communications which do not admit of their being tested and verified, should be regarded as worse than useless.I have before me at this moment one of the letters published in England in July last, it has not even an initial attached to it, and it is addressed from Farm, Manitoba, under date of June 3rd.Now, considering that Manitoba is considerably larger than Great Britain and Ireland, the address is singularly incomplete and unusual.I feel confident that the Press may be relied upon for securing emigrants from a repetition of the serious wisrepresentations which have become 80 common during the last twelve months, and I will gladly render any assistance in my power in enquiring into any cases which may be referred to me.LAVAL.The Gazette does not appear to take much interest in the Laval contested election case, now that its friend, Mr.Leblanc\u2019s, acts are being enquired into.We notice that Mr.Ouimet, M.P., bas been an active distributor of the money of the corruption fund.We suppose Mr.Ouimet knows of the penalty for such violations of law.The result of the proceedings is likely to prove a warning to Dominion politicians to keep their hands off the Provincial elections.Matters have gone so badly with Mr.Leblanc that his © petitioner\u201d has filed a declaration that he will not be held responsible for any further proceedings.Norwithstanding this announcement the Court is going on with the case, which grows more interesting daily.Tux BisHorric of Hurox.\u2014It will be seen by our telegrams that Dean Baldwin has been elected Bishop of Iluron and that he has accepted the high office.The Dean\u2019s many personal friends in Montreal and all who have knowledge of the important part which the Dean has played in connexion with the advancement of the interests of the Church of England in this city and diocese, will regret to learn of the great loss the Church here is about to sustain ; while they can not fail to appreciate the mark of confidence which the church in another part of Canada has just conferred on a most worthy churchman and

department, are very far from being satisfactory.We do not see how Mr.Robb can speak so confidently of the deficit in the police department\u2019s fund, consisting chiefly of shortages in cash and not em- bezzlements, as he (Mussen) spoke freely to the accountant of the police department at the time (June last) and told him he was 81,500 astray in that account, which he was endeavoring to trace.\u201d If there were \u201cshortages in cash,\u201d who has got the \u201ccash?\u201d And whose fault is it that such a serious matter has remained unsettled since June last ?Two able bodied dynamiters appear to have been securely caged in Halifax.They were abundantly supplied with dynamite, and one of them had a Boynton swimming suit.It looks as if the intention was to use this suit in an attempt to blow up a man-of-war in Halifax harbor, and thus stimulate the collection of money in the United States for Fenian uses.The men were taken before the Stipendiary Magistrate yesterday,

The train runs up within a few yards of this wonderful edifice, lighted as it is with electric light, aud built of wood in ninety-six days.It is a fairy-like scene.The lake stretching away on both sides, the deep black of the surrounding woods, and last, but not least, highly dressed forms moving about on a sort of large verandab, which runs over 300 yards, the whole length of the building.\u201d It certainly was a haven of rest to tired travellers, and a welcome change from the cars, luxurious even as they are.We had an excellent dinner, and after some first-rate speeches, and plenty of health and prosperity drinking, we all went to roost with the mixed strains of a Highland reel, and ¢ Should auld acquaintance be forgot,\u201d mingling in our ears.The hotel holds now over 400 people, and six years ago Indians were roaming about in freedom where it now stands.It will undoubtedly become a fashionable summer resort, znd is now much used by people from St.Paul, Chicago and Minneapolis.On Saturday we ran back to Minneapolis and inspected the magnificent bridge in that town all made of stone, and the most substantial structure I have seen in this country ; then to St.Paul, whence we started at 3 o\u2019clock.We passed till nightfall through partially cultivated wheat lands, and reached the open prairie at a place called Fergus Fall.At 7 the next,morning (Sunday) we were at breakfast at Winnipeg, and a most excellent meal it was.I had the pleasure of driving over the town with Mr.Donald Smith, the last governor in the West of the Hudson Bay Company.He gave us a most graplie account of the growth of this marvellous town and country, having as its inhabitants, only a few yeurs ago, 1,000 half-breed Indians aud Hudson\u2019s Bay officials, and now a population of 20,000.Winnipeg itself is admirably situated to be a capital town, standing as it does on the point of land formed by the junction of the Red River and the Assiniboine.There are good substantial buildings in the town, and it now has every indication of steady sterliug prosperity, After a two hours\u2019 stay we steamed out of the station ACROSS THE GREAT PRAIRIE, & vast expanse of green for the first seventy miles or so, & country with magnificent hay crops and a wealth of deep black loam.After a bit we arrived at Portage la Prairie, a flourishing town of about 2,000 people, and then on through very well cultivated lands, good oats, wheat and potatoes, with all other ordinary vegetables growing to perfection.The settlers all appear 0st comfortable, and look more ruddy and healthy than the men further south.We kept going through country which in every instance is capable of being settled up with advantage to the settler\u2014 Some of 1t as grazing farms, but most of best fitted for tillage.Regina we reached at night, so were unable to see what is, I believe, à very flourishing place.Monday morning.\u2014The prairie is now more of a rolling character and well fitted for grazing, as water exists in plenty all along the fine.At about eleven we arrived at Medicine Hat, where the Saskatchewan 18 crossed.This place strikes me as one that will grow to be a very large town, being the centre of a most fertile district, and being a future port on the Saskatchewan for steamers sailing to Prince Albert.The first boat had just come in, and was lying alongside taking in stores, and the agent told Mr.Stephen that the navigation had not proved at all difficult.Coal of good quality was also found in the neigh- orhood, while that which was burnt from Medicine Hat to Calgary seemed to he of smoke than that ordinarily used.The latter coal comes from seme mines opened D Sir A.Galt and a company of, I believe, nglish capitalists.After leaving Medicine Hat there is a very steep grade, and after passing that we come on a VERY FLAT DIT OF FRAIRIE-LAND, well adapted at some points for cattle grazing.There are now no more villages or settlements to speak of, as the track has only been lately laid, but the whole of the land between the Bow and Red Deer Rivers seem of the highest order.The grass looks well, close and thick, and even a few oat plants, left by the teamsters, were very strong and healthy, with good ears.There seems to be also in man places an immense depth of alluvial soil, and from what I have seen in Nebraska and Dakota, I have no doubt in the world but that as fine crops will be produced and as vast herds of cattle reared as in the best circumstanced prairie - land of the States.We reached Calgary about 6 p.m., and found it charmingly situated in a sort gh hollow in the hills, with the Bow River running through it, while the rich grasses and strong soil around it prove that not only for grazing but agricultural purposes \u2018it will be a great head- centre of all that is valuable to a farming community.Land and town sites are going up daily in value, and it should become, what I believe it will, the Denver of the North-West.We hear to-night that indications of gold and silver are being found in the mountains, and apparently every product necessary for the prosperity of a country is to be obtained, if sought for.We are now at THE END OF THE TRACK, and we must part company ; some of us go to our ranges, and others to return to their homes by the same perfect route; but before we do part I must say a few words of thanks to those who have throughout this long journey so cared for our necessities and ministered to our wants in every way, and have treated us all with a hospitalit unrivalled and a kindness unparalleled.The trip has been a most successful one in every way, and I am sure no men can be more satistied with all they have seen and done than the directors themselves; but while pressing on this great enterprise as they are, and looking to the settlement of these vast domains as one of their most desirable ends, they should remember that they are carrying out a scheme which will in all probability revolutionise the carrying trade of one part of the world.Once the great line epans this Continent from Montreal to the Pacific, China and New Zealand and many of the most important Eastern ports will be three or four days nearer to Europe and her market.The teas and aromatic spices of the East, the wool of New Zealand, and the * hard corn of Manitoba,\u201d so highly prized by millers, will travel together In the same curs, and THE BOXD OF IRON AND STEAM which is now binding every section of the globe will have no more glorious link than the Canadian Pacific Railway.Let England and these colonies remember that those chains are the ones which connect the mother country with her children; it is by ties of trade and prosperity that the true strings of affection and mutual welfare are knitted, and I believe and feel the great highway we have just passed over may, if strongly supported and bravely protected, prove, in the near future, oue of the great features of what I believe most rational Englishmen and colonists desire\u2014 a great confederate commercial union or \u201cBund\u201d of Eugland and, her colonies.Surely the men who have by enlerprise, sagacity, and pluck brought this great prospect in the near future deserve well of their fellow men.Let me, therefore, conclude by wishing prosperity to the Canadian Pacific Railway and good luck to the directors and the good train that has brought us 2,600 miles.CORRESPONDENCE.Correction.To the Editor of the HERALD.You have reported the tender of the Citizens Gas Company as stipulating for only twenty-cne nights per month of street lighting; no such stipulation appears in the tender, nothing less than 365 days per annum were spoken of or contemplated.The fact that the

had a power of attorney signed by Mr.Leblanc authorizing him to represent him at the poll.Sometimes he went out to speak to persons, and seemed to me to act as a cataller.I did not see Edouard Desy arranging for vehicles to bring up voters.The petitioner, Felix Lavoie, at this stage,presented a declaration praying to be relieved from all responsibility for any ulterior proceedings which may be had.The enquefe was thereupon adjourned to Thursday morning to enable Mr.Mercier to take communication of the declaration referred to.The proceedings were continued yesterday morning.CYRIAC ST.AMOUR, was the first witness.He said : Chrysostome Huot asked me to take part in the election.I refused.I had not been paid the expenses of previous elections of different candidates.Mr.Huot thereupon gave me $95.CHRYSOSTOME HUOT.was then sworn.He said : Tam the person just referred to by St.Amour.I took an active part in the last election.on behalf of Mr.Leblanc.JOSEPH CLEROUX, farmer, of St.Martin, was then sworn and testified : I took part in Mr.Leblanc\u2019s two elections.I received $122 from Mr.Leblanc.I acted as carter.I received this amount in partial payments, at different times, $50 1n December, and $60 at another date.Mr.Leblanc used my horse, .sometimes I went with him as carter, at others he went alone.He used my horse for three months.On polling-day I brought electors who had a right to vote, to the poll, in my vehicle.The previous evenin Mr.Leblanc asked me to employ my horse in bringing up electors.Mr.Leblanc did not personally ask me to carry electors ; he asked the crowd publicly for persons to convey the electors.On the evening previous to the polling, Mr.Leblanc asked me to go to the city for a voter.The last $60 which I received from Mr.Leblanc I got from him in the month of May.When I drove about with Mr.Leblanc, it was he who paid the expenses.I am not a carter by occupation.1 hire out my horse occasionally, as an exceptional thing.Cross-examined :\u2014Before hiring out my mare to Mr.Leblanc, I could have had $150, but not so much after the election.At this stage of the proceedings, Mr.Boisvert produced a declaration, signed by the petitioner, Felix Lavoie, disclaiming his responsibility respecting the costs incurred in the enquete against \"the mis en cause.Mr.Mercier asked that notice of this be given him, which was ordered by the Court.EUSEBE LAURIN, sworn: 1 live\u2019 at Bord-a Plouffe; I had visits from Mr.Leblanc on several occasions during the election of 1882.I supported Mr.Leblanc.Mr.Bel lerose, Mr.Allard, and some others told me that the speakers on both sides could not speak at certain localities.We contemplated organizing at Bord-a-Plouffe a body of men to keep the peace.I went to St.Rose with a number of vehicles.A rumor was in circulation that a number of butchers from Montreal and several others, intended to create a disturbance at St.Rose on nomination day.With respect to the legal expenses which might be incurred at Bord-a-Plouffe some one told me that they would be paid at Montreal.I was told I might engage carters, and money was given me to pay them.It wasat Alderic Ouimet\u2019s house that the rendezvous was held.Inthe atternoon, after having been at Mr.Ouimet\u2019s, I went to Mr.Leblanc\u2019s.Here we spoke of Mr.Bellerose.I said to Mr, Leblanc that Mr.Ouimet had told me that these expenses were legal ones; he (Mr.Leblanc) veplied < That is correct.\u201d There was no question of the number of vehicles I was to bring.I afterwards paid for the vehicles which wanted their money.There were some at $2, and some at $3.I went to Mr.Alderic Ouimet for the money.Ido not remember whether it was $75 or $50 that he gave me.There was à committee meeting at Sauriol\u2019s, in the county, where the question of these vehicles was discussed.This committee meeting was to make arrangements for nomination day.Mr.Leblanc was there.He did not speak to me about the vehicles; I think he must have known what was going on.The Court then took a recess.AFTER RECESS, the evidence of Eusebe Laurin was proceeded with as follows :\u2014In 1882, I had not sufficient money to pay the election ex- senses.In 1883, I was paid $50, the Palance of the amount I expended in 1852.On the following day, or 1n the evening 1 think Mr.Ouimet took precautions to the evening before, or on the day after, or it might have been on the evening of the same day, that I received the $50.Mr.Ouimet gave me these $50 in a room at Mr.Bourassa\u2019s.I saw Mr.Leblane with Mr.Ouimet on the gallery.This was some time after I went into the room.In 1882 I tcok part in a committee heldZat Venance Lemay\u2019s.There were about thirty persons present, two thirds of whom were electors.Mr.Leblanc was in the bar room at that time.I paid $10 to the proprietor for rent for the committee meeting and other expenses.Liquor was drunk.Mr.Leblanc drank with us.TI spoke to Mr.Leblanc at Montreal or somewhere else about a committee that was to be formed.Mr.Leblanc must have known that it was necessary to pay for holding a meeting at Mr.Lemay\u2019s.After paying the $10 for the committee, I spoke to Mr.Leblanc about it; that was some days after.The first time that Mr.Leblanc came to my house, three months before the election, I told him not to talk to me about anything of a compromising nature respecting the election, such as election expenses, and that I would not speak to him on the subject either.I did not wish that we should compromise ourselves, Mr.Ouimet read me the law on election expenses and he gave me money for them.I said, \u2018 the more you give me the more will Ido,\u201d I never asked for money in Mr.Leblanc\u2019s presence._ Cross-Examined: When I took the carters to keep the peace, they were at libert to vote for whom they pleased.Mr.Bellerose was the first to speak to me about organizing.When Mr.Bellerose and myself consulted a man of law, it was in order not to incur illegal ex- | penses.[ used the money which I received from Mr.Ouimet in paying the ex- euses of the committee and the carters.prevent corruption.It was understood that in case I had not enough money Mr.Ouimet would furnish me with it to pay the carters.I was to be re-imbursed this money.I told Mr.Leblanc that I would not ask anything at all for my influence or my vote.When Mr.Bezeau treated a dozen of electors in company with Mr.Leblanc, the latter said he could not return the compliment, because the law would not permit him to do so.The enquete was then, adjourned to this morning at 10.30.DID SHE DIE?\u201cNo! \u201c She lingered and suffered along, pining away all the time for years,\u201d \u201c The doctors doing her no good ;\u201d \u201c And at last was cured by this Hop Bitters the papers say so much about.\u201d \u201cIndeed!

of Lansdowne.2 It is probable that there will be a general illumination of the city on Monday evening in honor of the arrival of the Marquis of Lansdowne.The civic address will be presented to him on Tuesday.Sir A.T.Galt, it is said here, will short- 1y leave for England.The convention of the Ontario W.C.T.U.concluded its labors to-day, when a large quantity of miscellaneous business was transacted by the delegates.All the officers were re-elected for the ensuing year.Standing committees were ap- ointed on prison and gaal work, on legis- ation, influencing the press, on the use of unfermented wine for Sacramental purposes, in county or township fairs and volunteer camps, on presenting the claims of temperance to religious and other bodies, and on scientific information on temperance.Mrs.Chisholm, of Hamilton, was appointed a delegate to confer on the subject of forming a Dominion Union.A number of resolutions were adopted, among them one urging the introduction of temperance books into the schools, one urging the necessity of banishing wine from the communion table, and one pledging the members of the Union to abstain from patronizing groceries where liquor is sold.Seven delegates were appointed to attend the national convention of the W.C.T.U.of the United States, to be held in Detroit on October 31st.After some discussion it was decided, on a vote of 13 to 7, to circulate petitions to be presented to the Dominion Parliament next session asking for total prohibition.After the transaction of some miscellaneous business the \u2018convention adjoured, to meet next year in Hamilton.Two pianos and organs were purchased in this city to-day for the Marquis of Lansdowne, My -suitent of real and personal The 2e incom \u201cÊthe City of Ottawa TO c -a Fr The year 1884 has been «.pleted Tho the assessment commissioners.figures indicate a satisfactory increase, both in assessable property and population.The total real property 1s assessed at $11,105,025, as against $10,768,492 in the year 1883, an increase of $336,553.The population has increased proportionately, = The assessors place the total population of the city at 27,645, an increase of 1,417 over the assessment of 1883.The actual figures given do not represent the number of souls in the city as the assessors, for various reasons, never can ascertain the exact population.Ten per cent might fairly be added to the whole and this would place the total population of the city at about 30,000.One new feature,in connection with the assessment of 1884, was the assessment of the income of the Civil servants resident here.This amounts to $756,375, but the question whether the tax on this can be legally levied will, no doubt, be adj udicated upen by the Privy Council of England, the Civil servants having already entered a protest.hr.Hugh Ryan, of the Quebec and Ontario Railway, was in the city to-day in regard to procuring some land for the erection of telegraph poles on the line with which he is identified.QUEBEC.Nomination for Levis\u2014Customs Inspec= tion \u2014 \u201cA\u201d Battery Notes\u2014St.John\u2019s Church\u2014Personal\u2014 Preparing for Lord Lansdowne, Special to

Price of Gas\u2014O0sgoode Hall Notes\u2014Caring for the Poor.Toronto, October 18.\u2014An organized attempt to rescue from gaol Morgan, the murderer of Maroney, has been frustrated.The police got wind of the affair, and notified Governor Green, who put on extra guards, On the night when the attempt was to be made six noted thieves and crooks got on the train at Scarboro, leaving at the Don station.They were subsequently seen in the vicinity of the gaol, but apparently learning that everything was in readiness for a surprise, they desisted from the attempt.An aged couple were married here yesterday.George McLaughlin, the groom, residing on Bathurst street, is 83 years of age, and the bride is seven years older.Henry Ennermans, a boy about thirteen years old who ran away from a Galt institution three years ago, and who was searched for almost in every city of the Dominion by his mother since his disappearance, turned up at his mother\u2019s residence here last night to her great joy.She had spent nearly $3,000 in the search.The boy had been in Louisville, Kentucky, and had seen an\u2019 advertisement as to his whereabouts signed by his mother.A motion in Birrel vs.Barker has been argued at Osgoode Hall yesterday and today.The plaintiffs, dry goods merchants of London, have obtained judgment for over $4,000 against the defendant, keeper of a general store,

the resolution offered by Prof.Hopkins, of Auburn Theological Seminary, commending the sentiments expressed in the recent pastoral letter of the Roman Catholic provincial couneil, the committee

the position he had taken, and read extracts from the pastoral letter concerning divorce and Sunday excursions, which were received with general favor.He said it was eminently proper that the Synod should notice the progressive spirit manifested by the Roman Catholic Church.Rev.Dr.John Hall opposed these views, saying that any laudatory statement made by the Synod would be treated as a concession of Protestantism to Romanism.Finally, the report was modified by an amendment reducing it to a statement that the Synod refused to interfere with the affairs of other denominations and it was then adopted.THE CLOSE OF THE REVOLUTION.The Newburg Centennial.NEWBURG, N.Y., October 18.\u2014 The great centennial celebration in honor of the close of the war of the Revolution was held here

which is not very remote and which will have tu be faced, namely the constant conflict between the Lords and Commons.The two Houses must be reconciled andmade equally responsive to the national

Ro¢al.GRIZZLY ADAMS.There was a fair audience at the Theatre Royal last evening to witness the first produe- tion here of Mr.Goodrichs\u2019 new melo drama Grizzly Adams.We have but little to say of the play itself, save to remark that it is of the same style and \u201cmake up\u201d as Monte previously produced.It represents a life among the Sierras,and is filled with several thrilling and exciting situations, out of which Grizzl Adams, a character well depicted by E.'r Goodrich, always comes the hero.Mr.Lew Morton passed off as a faithful negro with great satisfaction and was a general favorite.The character of Lady Amaranth, Queen of a band of lawless settlers, was ably portrayed by Miss Edith Crolins, while Miss Louise Crolins, in her roll of Miriam Cohen, who, in the end, turns out to be the daughter of Lady Amaranth, was generally well received.The remaining characters were fairly interpreted.The scenic effects slightly surpass those produced in Monte, but a great lack of promptitude on the part of the scene-shifters was shown, and alittle brushing up ing this respect would not be out of place.A better supervision of the * gods\u2019 is, as was proved last night; desirable.One of them lost control of self so far asto throw a kitten, in whom life was not yet quite extinct, among those occupying the orchestra chairs: luckly however, his calculation was bad, an it struck no one.Grizzly Adams will be repeated to-night and to-morrow night and also at the matinee on Saturday.MME.GIRARD GYER.The coming attraction for next week at the Royal will be Madame Girard

October 18.§ The Financial Situation.The events cf the week in financial circles phave been of such a disquieting nature as to give rise to no little expression of anxiety regarding the future.Experienced observers of financial affairs acknowledge that the present circumstances bearing on the situation are somewhat perplexing, and cannot be clearly defined or intelligently grasped.The trouble in the cotton trade has come to a head, aud it is now reasonably certain that means will Le adopted to go to the root of the niatter, and adjust the production to the natural level of consumption.The President of the Bank of Montreal gave wholesome advice some time ago, which ought to bear its fruit now in the shape of measures to aver! possible trouble ahead.The outcome of the uncertainty is evinced in the attitude of bankers, who are fully awake to the advisability of strengthening their position as far as that can be conveniently done, not that they are in positive danger, but that the contraction of discounts will tend to establish a more reassured feeling in all branches of trade and commerce The failure in the fur trade to-day was an outgrowth of the suspension of the Exchange Bank, and created no surprise.Montreal Stock Market.On the Stock Exchange to-day the markets were characterized by a greatly improved tone, which in some cases approached to buoyancy.There is some hesitation, however, about going long, be- causa it is not yet certain if prices are low enough to justify a bull movement, or that the causes responsible for the recent depression have exhausted themselves, neither is it certain that the bears have finished with their attempts to break the markets.Bank stocks were generally stronger,and nearly all closed higher.Monttreal opened at 191, and remamed steady for some time, with a fair amount of trading.In the afternoon it was irregular and easier, closing unchanged from yesterday at 1903.Ontario was more active, and very weak.The opening sales were made at 1093, on which followed a break of 2} in the afternoon, the market closing at 1073.Peoples was weak, and sold down to 62, closing at 60@62.Molsons changed hands at 114.Toronto was very strong.It opened at 173, and made a gain of 2 before the close, when the market was 3 better than yesterday at 175.Merchants was more active at a higher range, closing % up at; 116}.Commerce also showed more animation, closing à higher at 126}.Federal was active and strong, closing 24 higher at 1503.Jacques Cartier was quoted at 100@110, and Union at 70/@78, while Eastern Townships vas offered at 116.Gas was the prominent feature in miscellaneous stocks.It opened at 168, and steadily advanced without material check to 170, when it reacted, and closed at 169, again of 1 from yesterday.Montreal Telegraph was quiet, and closed easy at 1173@118%.Richelieu was quiet, but stronger, closing at 55554.City Passenger was steady at 118.North-West Land was weak, and dull at 70s@72s 6d.Cotton stocks were offered at 70 for Canada, 60 for Dundas, and 90 for Montreal, with 60 bid for the latter.In railway stocks, Canadian Pacific was active} and strong, closing

of our last review, have not tended to accelerate the development of business, yet they have had no positively evil effect, beyond creat\u201d ing an uneasy feeling, lest there should be more behind, which did not previously exist.If the aggregate movement has not actually decreased, buyers have certainly conducted their operations with a greater degree of caution which borders on timidity, and perhaps it is as well that such should be the case, but in some quarters an opinion is expressed that it is being carried too far.The vol ume of business, however, has been fair under the circumstances, and in most departments a hopeful feeling is entertained.There has been no marked fluctuation in values that calls for special mention.More complaints over the manner of payments are heard, especially of the apparent difficulty with which some country storekeepers meet their obligations.Apart from this the commercial situation com tains no really unsatisfactory features.In dry goods the movement has been individually moderate, but collectively fair, but the prospects of trade in winter goods are satisfactory, and will doubtless take more definite shape as the weather becomes colder.Iron and hardware generally have retained their former characteristics.The improvement in the distribution of general goods last noted has been maintained at a full level.Tinplates are firmer, while tin changes.Boots and shoes have been fairly active and steady.hides have ruled quiet and unchanged.In general groceries the distribution has hardly been so active, still a good trade has been done.Sugar has scored a further advance in yellows, and the supply keeps short.Coft:e is dull, and tea quiet.Rice is firmer in sympathy with the advance in England.Fruits are somewhat unsettled, and difficult to quote.Chemicals are quiet and about steady.Wool is moderately active, and hops dull.In naval stores rosins have moved out more freely.The breadstuffs market has ruled |

at its commencement.À feature of the trade this fall has been the development of the demand for felt boots, of which it is estimated some 300,000 pairs were owe to replace the cowhide boot formerly used so extensively.This has diminished the demand for waxed upper in the leather market, which, in turn, may be held partially accountable for the quiet trade in that de- sold this season.These have

of fish have been moderate, just about enough to replenish stocks.Receivers seem to experience\u2019no difficulty in realizing firmer prices.Owing to the delay in inspection the outward movement of Labrador herrings has been greatly retarded, but we learn that the difhiculty has been overcome by arrangement among the trade.Some British Columbia salmon has been re ceived, which is held at $17 per brl.North Shore salmon are quiet.Green cod is easy and other kinds of fish unchanged.We quote: \u2014 Fruirs.\u2014On spot the movement of fruit continues very light, so much so that rices are hardly

noticeable that a bearish feeling prevails strongly in the markete, and in quarters that previously have been on the other side.\u201d Hops.\u2014The deadlock between buyers and sellers continues to keep the market in an extremely dull groove.There is not the slightest anxiety to sell, and buyers are equally stubborn.Brewers only purchase enough to provide for pressing Dry Goons\u2014The week has brought?necessities, while the grower holds out for little, if any, improvement to the dry goods trade, which continues to show former quiet features.The movement of woollen and heavy dress goods has been moderately active in regard to immediate trang- actions, but the prospects for a good distribution are favorable.Cctton goods are quiet and about steady.The stock of knitted goods is rather heavy, mainly owing to the shrinkage in the trade wit the North-West.Otherwise stocks are well under control, and not likely to cause any inconvenience.Collections are generally reported fair.Latest mail advices from Bradford, England, are as follow :\u2014 \u201c The general tone of our market is certainly im proving,but prices do not advance, although their tendency is against buyers.In English wool there is rather more demand, and Irish wools are better looked after.In the latter sellers do obtain a slight advance.Botany woolsare just now in large consumption.Spinners are all extremely busy, and some large orders for the yarn have been given qut.Fine wools are slightly hardening, breds are more saleable.and even cross Spinners of English yarns report rather more inquiry for export, both twofold and single, and quota- 25c.This figure, considering the quality of the crop, is an extreme.We quote nominally 20c@25c, as to quality.The New York Shipping List says :\u2014 There has been a brisk export demand for England, with liberal sales here and in the interior for London, and *the market, in consequence, has shown a firm tone.The brewing demand is moderate.We quote choice new State 26/@27 cents, medium do.24/@26¢, low to fair do.20@23c, and Yearlings 23@25c.A few Eastern are on their way here and are quoted 20@25c.\u201d Iron AND Harpware\u2014The current feeling in the pig iron market is expressed in about the same form as last week\u2014that is, quiet.Buyers are making a fair enquiry for most brands, but are only ready to urchase small lots, as if they see nothing in the situation to warrani investment against the future.Quotations are slightly amended to conform to sales made on a somewhat easier basis, Warrants are cabled at 463 3d, but the market has been affected by a strike among coal miners.By private cable we are informed that stocks mn Glasgow are steadily accumulating at the rate of over 1,000 tons per week, which tends to counteract the effect of the strike.At this port considerable quantities of iron have arrived during the week, a fair proportion of which have gone into yards.A weak point in the situation is to be found in the fact that makers on the other side are beginning to send cousign- ments.The finished iron market may be written firm and unchanged, without new developments Tinplates are firmer.The feature in this department is the scarcity of coke wasters, which are in request.Charcoals have movel out fairly well at $5 @ $5.25 for I.C.,, as to quantity.Cokes are at $435 @ $440.Outward freights on metals from Liverpool have advanced to 15s.Cunada plates continue in good demand on the basis of $3.10 for round lots.Ingot tin is weaker.London cabled at £93 15s, while Straits ingots here are 3c lower at 23c.Copper is

rules.THE CATTLE MARKETS.MONTREAL, October 18.\u2014 Uthfavorable British cables, together with the largely increased recei ts here, have resulted in an almost demoralized market for export cattle, with a decline of 4¢ per lb.At Acer & Kennedy\u2019s yards no transactions on'spot were reported.We quote export cattle 43e @ Sc per |b.live weight as to quality.Export sheep were firm at 44c @ 42c per live weight.Hogs were offered at 52c @ Gc per lb.live weight as to quality.A large sup- lv of butcher\u2019s cattle was offered for the focal market at 3c @ 4}c per 1b.live weight as to quality.At Viger market the receipts were large, about 500 head of beef cattle being offered.These met a fair demand at steady prices, 3c @ 436 per lb.live weight as to quality.There was about 800 head of sheep and lambs offered, prices ranging from $4 @ $8.50 each for sheep and $2.50 @ $4.50 for lambs, as to quality.John Swan & Son\u2019s weekly report, dated October 5, says :\u2014There was a very good display of home-fed cattle in Edinburgh this week, the trade for which, though scarcely so animated, was still fairly satisfactory.In Glasgow home supplies were unusually short and, with few exceptions, of a very moderate class, Those adapted for best buyers sold readily and well everything under this made less money, hence in the open market, after the top descriptions were cleared, slow sales were effected.The Scotch markets, gene rally, this week, indicate first-class qualities of all kinds worth as good price, anything under that is difficult to sell at less money.In Eugland, London has been dall throughout the week; the restrictions upon Liverpool have caused the Midland county markets to fluctuale materially, and quotations are, therefore, not reliably quotable.In the sheep markets here numbers have been large but, generally speaking, quality deficient; choice sorts, both sheep and lambs, adapted for the best buyers, have fully maintained last week\u2019s prices, all other descriptions are decidedly lower with a bad finish.Foreign supplies have been large, comprising 300 States cattle at Yorkville, which met a better trade at from 9s 3d to, in.some cases, 93 9d per stone; from Canada 750 cattle of a useful sort, conjointly taken for butchers and feeders, the market for this class of stock closing weakly, those bought by feeders being taken at resent market value to slaughter.From anada also 1,000 fat sheep and lambs, which made a middling trade, the former making 8d to 83d per 1b.; 300 were sold in a lot at 30s, unprofitable to the shippers.From Denmark 200 cattle of a middling class, which consequently made bad prices.In store stock recent high prices have not been maintained.Some counties in England, from which hitherto a large demand has existed, are closed, and there appears to be a general retaliation amongst local authorities all over the country, difficult to understand, to those engaged in the trade, and extremely oppressive to the agricultural interest generally.This is evinced by the opening of different counties suited to their particular requirements, and the sooner that an amalgamated council, Laving for its object the general interest of the country, is formed, the better.2,800 sheep from Ireland met a not more than ordinary demand.Best home beef, 10s 6d, In some cases 10s 9d; secondary, 933d fo 9s 6d; inferior 8s 3d to 8s 6d; Canadian, 8s 9d to 9s 3d per stone.Best mutton 104d, In extreme cases 104d; secondary, 8d per lb.Lambs, if good, dear, but are now virtually out of season.Fat calves and pigs are both dearer.The fat markets have closed with a fair clearance.' \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 rare QUEBEC MARKETS.QueBkc, Ogtober 18.LUMBER\u2014No new features have presented themselves in connection with the lumber market since our last report.Quite a number of rafts remain in coves unsold.Merchants are seemingly pretty weil supplied for fall shipments, and are not investing in new wood to the extent of other seasons at this time.A couple of rafts are reported sold during the week, but prices have not transpired.Rafts, however, show no improvement on previous transactions.Frergars\u2014The arrival of ocean tonnage has been brisk during the week and the balance of our fall fleet are now in port.The bulk of vessels were, however, char tered on the other side.Any open shins in the market can command fair rates and some are holding for an advance.Business has been done at 26s 6d for timber to Greenock ; London, 28s, timber; Liverpool, 27s 6d, timber; Glasgow, 67s 6d, deals; Buenos Ayres, $15.50 per M.In River and Gulf freight there is very little doing, and any goods offering readily find room at last quotations.CoaLs.\u2014Some twenty-four cargoes, principally Scotch, have come in during the week, being about the balance of expected receipts this season.Our total importations now reach 114,494 tons, as against 194,658 tons last year.Rates have advanced to $5 for Scotch, at which latter figure the latest transactions have taken place.Saur.\u2014Receipts since last report have been principally on importers\u2019 account.Importations now reach 232,965 sacks, against 238,746 sacks last year.We hear of no sales afloat.Dealers are selling, in lots, at 47 cents per sach, ex store.FisH AND Fism O13.\u2014Receipts

market was without any fresh feature.For red clover- seed no buyers are yet found.America this morning cables lower quotations and cropseverywhere promise most abundantly.The trifoliam trade is nearly over.Winter tures realize late rates.Rye is unchanged.Full prices are asked for rapesced.Blue peas con mand former terms, Linsced and cauaryseed are dull.- ee NEW YORK GENERAL MARKETS.The Skipping List, in giving the spirit of the Mar ois.says ;\u2014< There has been no appreciable change in the condition and tendencies of general trade during the three days.The volume of wholesale business keeps up to about recent proportions and there have been no disturbances of a serious nature, The few small failures announced have been due to individual short comings rather than to general causes, and they are therefore not indicative of unsoundness of trade, which lias rarely ever been conducted upon so conservative a basis.The bank clearings of most of the leading cities continue to show a decrease, measured by the corresponding period last year, those for this city being 16.6 per cent.less, and for twenty six leading cities outside of New York 7.4 per cent less.Among the cities showing an increase are Cincinnati 25 per cent.New Orleans 2.2 per cent., Providence 19.4 per cent, Kansas City 4.9 per cent., Cleveland 4.8 per cent., Peoria 13.8 per cent., Memphis 33.9 per cent, Springfield 19.9 per cent., and Syracuse 8.7 per cent.But the bank exchanges can hardly be regarded as indicative of the volume of current business; millions of dollars\u2019 worth of goods may be sold this week to be paid for next month, or four months from now, and it is obvious that this would not affect the exchanges of the banks for the current week ; such exchanges are more likely to be affected by tie amount of goods sold on credit a few months ago, and now falling due, but this is so mixed up by the current cash transactions that the statistics for a single week are not a reliable index of the state of trade ; but for a eeries of months, or for a year, their comparative exhibit is of more importance.Both spot Cotton and futures are again lower.Refined, Petroleum is firm and Crude certificates a shade lower.Naval stores inactive.Wool in fair demand and steady.Tobacco quiet but firm.Hides firm but leather depressed.India rubber weak under an accumulation of stock.Hops

occurred.Thesmall transactions insugar have been at rather easier prices.Beet has declined 3d, but there has been more disposition to buy at the decline.Coffee remains slack, but there was a steadier tone at the auctions to-day than was observable in the early part of the week.Cocoa has sold very steadily.Public tea auctions have again been heavy, and, without being currently lower, both China and Indian teas have often sold at rates in favor of buyers, Rice is steady, but not active.Some business done in saltpetre at former rates.The spice auctions have passed off quietly, pimento and cloves being barely supported, but other spice was steady, and privately pepper has sold for arrival at firm rates.\"A large business has been done in jute, prices advancing 108 per ton on tne week, but there is less demand at the close.Manila hemp meets with rather more inquirey, and 1s firm.There has been more doing in cotton, and the market is firmer.The Colonial wool sales have closed with rather a firmer tone than they opened, but on the average prices are 4d to 1d per Ib down tor the series.In theoil trades prices have ruled slightly easier.Tallow has about maintained late value.Sugar.\u2014The market remains quiet for refined ; dried goods remain unaltered.Tate\u2019s cubes 29s 3d, Martineau\u2019s titlers 27s 9d to 28s cubes 28s.cut leaf 29s 3d, Duncan\u2019s cubes

AT.Galt, Sir Alex.Campbell, Hon.J.A.Chapleau and others.The dinner given last evening to Sir Hector Langevin'at the Windsor was a brilliant affair, and drew forth a very large attendance of that gentleman\u2019s friends, political and otherwise.Sir Hector has, since the death of Sir George E.Cartier, been the most conspicuous figure in Quebec politics, and has recently developed qualities which mark him as one of the likely candidates for the future leadership of the Liberal-Conservative party.Sir Hector native of the city of Quebec, where he was born fifty-seven yeers ago.He entered early into the profession of journalism and was called to the bar in 1850, and in 1857 was first returned for the county of Dor chester to the Quebec Assembly.From that time to the present, with the exception of the two years from 1874 to 1876, he has been in public life, and has been 1den tified with all the great political movements of the day.He was a delegate to the Charlottetown Conference of 1864, the Quebec Conference and the London Conference of 1866-7, and is thus completely identified with the Union of the Provinces.He has filled a number of important offices both in old Canada and since Confederation, aud now occupies the office of Minis ter of Public Works, a position of the highest unportance, wigeh brings him into contact with the people of all the provinces more than any other office would do.Sir Hector is a man of affable manners, a good speaker, a loyal man, and as a reward for his public services has been honored by Her Majesty with the Companionship of the Bath and a Knight Commandership of the Order of St.Michael and St.George.Probably, however, he will value these honors less than the appreciation of his friends in Montreal, as shown by the grand banquet of which he was the recipient last evening.THE DINNER LAST NIGHT.The large dining hall of the Windsor Hotel presented a brilliant appearance when 8 o\u2019clock arrived and the guests had taken their seats at the tables.The fine hall, which needs nothing to add to its noble appearance, was ueatly decorated with evergreens and the flags of all nations, the tri-color uniting with the Union Jack of Old England and the Stars and Stripes of the United States.In the centre of the hall was hung a maguificent festoon of evergreens, while in the rear of the chair was placed on a pedestal a life-like bust of the Minister of Public Works, on each side of which hung the Union Jack and the tri-color, surmounted by the arms of the Dominion.Over 400 guests sat down to the well laid tables, and the scene presented was a very brilliant one.His Worship Mayor Deaudiy ocoupiod tho chair and was suppdtted on his right by by the guest of the evening, Sir Hector Langevin, C.B., K.C.M.G., Hon.A.W.MeLelan, Minister of Marine and Fish.er:es, Hon.John Costigan, Minister of Inland Revenue, Hon.J.\u201d A.Mousseau, Premier of Quebec, Hon.L.O.Taillon, Speaker of the Quebec Hcuse, Hon.Senator Ogilvie, Mr.O.Perrault, Vice- Consul of France, Thos.White, M.P., and on his left by Sir Alex.Campbell, Minister of Justice, Hon, Mr.Carling, Postmaster-General, Hon.J.A.Chapleau, Secretary of State, Hon.Senator Ferrier, S.Bethune, Q.C., Hon, Mr.Wurtele, Provincial Treasurer of Quebec, Hon.Judge Armstrong, and others.The vice-chair men were Sir A.T.Galt, Hugh McLennan, C.J.Doherty, H.Bulmer, Jas.O\u2019Brien, John S.Hall, E.Murphy, A.Gelinas and 8S.Rivard.The menu was got up in the Windsor\u2019s best style, and was discussed to the satisfaction of all.During dinner the 65th orchestra played a number of spirited selections in fine style.After full justice had been done to the eatables, His Worship rose ahd announced that telegrams had been received from Hon.Frank Smith, Dr.Grandbois, M.P., Mayar Mackintosh, M.P., Hon.E.J.Flynn, P.Baskerville, M.P.P., G.Amyot, M.P., and others, expressing regret at their unavoidable abuence.Hon.Mackenzie Bowell was also prevented from being present by his father\u2019s death.Hon.J.H.Pope, Sir Joha A.Macdonald, Sir Leonard Tilley and Hon.D.L.Macpherson also expressed their regrets at being unavoidably prevented from being present at the gathering.His Worship also read a Jetter from Hon.A.P.Caron, Minister of Militia, regretting his inability to attend through the \u201cillness of Madame Baby, whose death was every moment expected.He then proposed the first toast of the evening, \u201cHer Majesty the Queen,\u201d which was honored with enthusiasm and the National Anthem.The toast of © The Prince of Wales,\u201d next proposed, was also learti- ly received ; \u2018\u2018 God\u2019 bless the Prince of Wales\u201d being sung.\u2018The Governor- General \u201d was received with loud applause and drunk with honors.The \u201cArmy, Navy @nd Volunteers \u201d was next honored, the band playing the British Grenadiers.MR.J.A.OUIMET, Q.C., M.P., on being called to respond to the toast, ex- ressed his regret that the Minister of Miitia was not present himself to reply, as he was sure that distingnished gentleman wonld have fulfilled the duty much better than he.He, however, would return thanks for the honor paid the Army, Nayy and Volunteers.The volunteers were the national army of Canada [loud applause], and in them was to be found the foundation of a true Canadian nationality.Among their ranks were to be found patriotism, valour and all that made a nation great.Their volunteers were sometimes laughed at, but what, he asked, would Canada be without her volunteers [loud applause].Bot he thought that the Chairman had not altogether observed- Military rules and regulations when he proposed the toast, or he would have called upon his senior, Lieutenant-Col.Stevenson [applause].LIEUT.-COL, A.A.STEVENSON, who was received with loud applause, also expressed his regret at the absence of the Inister of Militia.He would say on behalf of the militia of Canada that they had In them a body of men devoted to the ser- Ylce and determined to do their duty at all \u2018âzards and at all times, and while ready 10 prevent insurrection in our midst they , would be equally prepared to prevent invasion from without the Dominion.The militia of Montreal, however, had a peculiar interest in the guest of the evening, because he was at the head of Public Works, and there was now in Montreal a public work that was rapidly approaching completion, and where future generations of volunteers he hoped would be trained and drilled [loud applause].He agaiu expressed his pleasure at responding to the toast.Our Guest.The Chairman, in proposing the next toast, that of \u201cThe Guest of the Evening,\u201d said that this gathering made any further remarks on his part unnecessary.(Ap plause.) The toast was received with the greatest applause, the whole company cheering, while tiie band played \u201c Vive La Canadienne,\u201d : , SIR HECTOR LANGEVIN was received with tremendous applause.When the gyation had subsided Sir Hector said it would be affectation on his part if he did not at once express how he felt on this manifestation of confidence in him.It was a demonstration by the citizens of Montreal, whom he had so long known and who had always shown the greatest conii- dence in him.(Applause) He noticed with pleasure that both Conservatives and Liberals were gathered around the tables to do honor to one of the representatives of the French element in the Dominion Cabinet.He thanked them from the bottom of his heart for this.manifestation aud he was conviuced that if his leader, Sir John A.Macdonald, (applause) was present he would also return them his heartiest thanke, for this he was sure was not only a mark of respect and confidence in himself personally, but also in the administration of which\u2019 he formed a part since they had been in power.(Applause.) When he saw around him s0 many of his colleagnes, so many of the members of the Dominion Parliament, and so many of those who had so often supported and defended their Government, and had voted for the great measures of Sir John A.Macdonald, and many also were proud to recognize as their le=der the Premier of Quebec, (applause), he asked himself if this demonstration was meant for him alone, but if it was not meant more for a mark of confidence in the Government of which he was a member.(Applause.) He felt thal he would have to do much more in the future before he would deserve aft these marks of affection and esteem.He remembered the day.when he had the honor of serving under that great statesman, the honored, the esteemed and loved leader of the French-Canadian element\u2014the late Sir George Etienne Cartier [applause]; and he felt that this demonstration was in some respects intended as a tribute to the memory of that great man.[Applause.] He had eerved in many offices since then.He had spent twenty- six of the best years of his life in the service of his country, and the best recompense that Le would wish for was for their approbation and approval, which, he felt, this demonstration was sufiicient to show.It seemed to say to him, \u201ccontinue your services, they are recognized.\u201d He thanked them for himself, he thanked them on behalf of his colleagues, \u2014 for what thev did for him they did for his colleagues, and more especially for their leader, Sir John A.Macdonald\u2014that great head of the Conservative party.(Loud applause.) For 40 years, Sir John had led the party, and though he ight have made mistakes, no one, he contended, could deny that he had rendered great services which the country would not soon forget; and their earnest hope was that God would long spare him to the country.(Loud applause.) This was the desire of all his colleagues, by whom he was as much admired as he was respected.He referred to the great measures that had been inaug- uratel during the administration of Sir John Maecconald, the Act of Confederation, the construction of the Canadian Pacitic Railway, the National Policy, and the adoption of measures for the furtherance of immigration, and spoke of cach in detail.Referring to the first great measure he contended that Confederation was necessary to create harmony between the different Provinces of the Dominion, which at the time of its inauguration were rent with dissensions, which at once ceased and the country became one.[Loud applause.] It broke the varrier between the various Provinces and welded them into a Confederation, that he was assured would make them in time one of the great nations of the world.[applause.] The National Policy was also necessary under the circumstances in which it was inaugurated.At that time the public revenue was not sufficient to meet the expenses of the Government of the country and the works that had to be executed, and the credit of the country was kecoming worse daily.Under these circumstances it was necessary to make a change in the fiscal policy of the Dominion,and the\u2019great question was how best to save the country from its unfavorable condition.The Government of the country, therefore, supported by the great majority of the people, thought it best to make a change in the fiscal policy and to inaugurate the movement known as the system of Protection.What were the resuits of this system ?Instead of having a worthless credit and a revenue not able to meet the expenses of the administration of the country, they possessed now a revenueable to mect the expenses, and to allow of the construction of great public works; and, instead of there being a deficit annually they had a considerable surplus, which last year amounted to six millions and a quarter [loud applanse].This had not gone into the pockets of the ministers, but inte the public treasury, and allowed of the construction of great and negeseary works.The cost of the Canadian Pacific Railway would be fully paid for, aud their successors would not be bur- deued with any portion of the debt.Some might ask, was the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway necessary ?By the act of union with British Columbia the Dominion was bound to construct the Canadian Pacific, to connect the provinces of the west with the central portions of the Dominion, They were bound to carry out this obligation because they had hope in the future and hoped to make out of their country a great and powerful nation.(Loud applause.) In fifty years, he was convinced, the Canadian people would be a great nation (continued applause); and when this time arrived he was assured that it would not be raid that the founders of Confederation were not actuated by patriotism and zeal in the service of their country.The Canadian Pacific Railway was a step in the formation of the nation ; it united widely separated sections of the Dominion and furnished means of communication to emigrants coming into the country.[Applause.] The government.were making energetic efforts to increase this emigration, and the C., P.R.played an important part in the movement.But they had another mission to perform ; they had to bring back into the country their compatriots who had left 1t ; and he would say with pleasure that the government intended to take energetic measures in this direction.(Loud applause.) What, however, were the results of all these great measures of which he had spoken?The result was that they had created harmony in the country, the people were happy and satisfied, and, though they might have differences of opinion, yet when the great interests of the country were concerned he felt sure that both Conserva- tives and Liberals would join hand in hand.(Loud applause.) = Their policy had re-established the credit of the ccun- try.Some years ago the country had to pay 7 or 8 per cent.on their money, but now they were sought after to take 1t at four per cent.What was the reason of this ?It was because Canada had never repudiated its debts, and their credit was, by a wise policy, assured, This was one of the great result of their administration.He felt sure that their prosperity would continue in abundance, and he believed that next year the Government would have a surplus of three or four millions, (Applause.) He referred to the marvelous progress which Montreal had made, as a city, of late vears.He remembered the time, some thirty years back, when it was a much smaller city, and he was acquainted with most of its citizens.But now all was changed ; it bad become a vast and influential community.To whom was this progress due?First, to those princes of commerce, who -had labored in 1ts midst, to the splendid natural situation of.the city, and then to the benefits of the National Policy.(Applause.) Montreal in 1871 had a population of107,225 ; in 1881 its popu'ation numbered 140,747,an increase during the ten vears of 33,522, or a perzentage of 31.21.This would show the great progrese made by the city in population.(Applause).The progress in other directions had been equally as great.In 1871 the industrial and manufacturing establishments in Montreal numbered 1,104; in 1881 their number had increased to 1,763, an increase of 659, or a percentage of 60.In 1871 the number of employes was 21,175, and in 1881 35,209\u2014an increase of 14,034, or a percentage of 66.The wages in 1871 amounted to $5,195,465 ; in 1881 they amounted to $9,395,337\u2014an increase of $4,199,872, or a percentage of 80.The value of raw material used by these establishments was in 1871 $19,023,062, and in 1881 $33,- 994,249, an increase of $14,956,687, or a percentage of 78.The value of the articles produced was, in 1871, $32,727,946; in 1881, $55,131,181, an increase of $22,403,- 255, or a percentage of 68.This was what the National Policy had done for Montreal and was this not \u201csufficient answer that such a system was necessary?(Loud applause.)\u201d Bul they had looked at the past of the country ; what, lie would ask them, wag to be done in the future?The success of the past should inspire them with confidence in their institutions.Let then continue in harmony and join land in hand to assure the prosperity of their country.(Applause.) In all representative forms of Government parties were indispensable, but they should all have as their common object the good of their country.(Applause.) He urged them to remain firm in their principles, acting in the spirit of the motto, * principle before all, principle above all.\u201d This was a principle that the leaders of their great party had always laid down in the past as a great power, and he hoped they, in the future, would remain true to it.He hat one thing further to say, and he helped it would go from one end of the country to the other.He wished to have it distinctly understood that the Province of Quebec was not an obstacle to the progress of the other Provinces.(Loud and continued applause.) That Province had rights with the other Provinces ; it would only seek its rights and ask that justice should be done to all.He would ask if this was not the sentiment of all thezrepresentatives of that Province ?[Voices\u2014Yes! yes!] He concluded his exhaustive address by again urging harmony and good feeling among all classes and sections of the country, and added that he would wish to give expression to a few remarks in English.Sir Hector in English.Sir Hector Langevin then spoke as follows in English :\u2014 Mr.Mayor, honorable gentlemen and gentlemen, I would not be true to myself, I'would not be true to my colleagues, I would not be true to my parly, I would not be true Lo you, gencemen, ir Tolivuld Leoi tate for a moment, or delay one moment to offer you, who speak the English language, my most sincere and cordial thanks for this great, this magnificent and princely demonstration, which you have prepared and given here ig my honor.(Applause.) Through the country, and probably oui- side, when pepule hear of this demonstration, will it not be said that it was quite natural that the French-Canadians, whose blood is the same as that which flows in my own veins, should honor the man whom they put at their head, and whom they have been supporting solong?But when they hear that you who speak the English language, you who have nothing in common with me in origin, in language and many of of you in religion, that having nothing in common with me in these respects you should meet me here and grant me'the same honors that my French-Canadian coun\u2018rymen grant me, they will enquire why isthat?What can be the cause of such a demonstration.Gentlemen, I understand fully the reason of your gathering round these tables and honoring my humble self\u2014if I may use the words\u2014in the magnificent way in which you are doing this evening.True it is, there 19 not perhaps in those present at this demonstration a man who is more attached than myself of ny race, to my religion or my language.[Applause]; and I might add that there cannot be a man in this demonstration who is more attached than I am to that mother country of mine which was that to my forefathers.When I see old France suftering and unhappy, I must say I grieve with France; when I see France glorious and happy and wrosperous I rejoice at her glory, Ler prosperity and her happiness.But that does not allow me to forget that, though I am of French origin, though my forefathers came from France, I am here in this Canada of ours, this dependency of England, and that here the sovereign of this country is that gracious Queen and that most deserving Queen of England\u2014 (loud appiause long continued)\u2014tbat great Queen of England whom you all respect and love.(Cheers), And why should we love and respect that great Queen of Great Britain?Because not only did she protect our interests, but we know how good she has been asa queen, as a wife, and as a mother.And, gentlemen, we know it by the example that we have had under our eyes, the example she has sent tous, in the persons of some of her most dear children.The other day you were feting and honoring her gracious daughter, 1 think, in this very room where we are now assembled, when you showed respect to the daughter who has made herself so gracious and who was so beloved in this country.(Loud cheering.) And, gentlemen, we may be attached to the-country of our forefathers, but our allegiance is due tothat Queen of Great Britain under whose auspices we have the liberties which we enjoy, under whose auspices we have the great Confederation Act which, gentlemen, has protected your interests and all our interests.And, when 1 was sent to England to act with my late lamented friend, Sir George Cartier (cheers,) and we had with us that goed friend of ours, Sir Alexander Galt [Hear, hear], gentlemen, we had in our special care the great interest not only other provinces, but especially of the Province of Quebec.Aud, though we were in a majority\u2014my colleague, = Sir George Cartier, and myself\u2014did we forget that special interest of the minority in the Province of Quebec, so largely represented here this evening?Did we forget that you wanted your separate school svstem?Did we not recognize your rights, under the Confederation Act, to have your separaie schools?We went further than that, gentlemen.We said to ourselves that the Legislative Assembly of tnis Province of Quebec will be composed in a very large majority of French-Canadians and Roman Catholics, and, perhaps, the minority of the province, which is composed of men of another origin and a great many belonging to other creeds\u2014perkhaps that minority might feel uncomfortable and might, at a certain period of our history, be damaged \u2014 if I might use that word\u2014 y the legisfation of that Legislative Assembly\u2014not willingly, but unwittingly.Well, we said, let us provide a machinery by which a remedy way be found for a case of that kind, and we Instituted that second chamber, which so many think we should not favor.But, gentlemen, you, that winority, found yourselves u few years ago that that was a good chamber; because, at a time when you thought that the Legislative Assembly, in a moment of haste, had passed a measure or bill that might affect your rights, you went to that second chamber, that Legislative Council, and asked them to allow that bill to stand over ; you asked them to delay the measure, in order that it might be re-considered, and that the powers that were might have a chance to meet your views as far as possible.(Hear, hear.) And what was the result?It was the last day of the session, and did not the Government of the day Eive you satisfaction ?Did they not recoz- nize that there might be something in that bill?And did they not concede to you a remedy by which you thought\u2014as you should think\u2014that measure, as finally passed, was one that could not affect vour interests ?Therefore, though that chamber might have effect only once in a hundred years, it was sufficient to justify its establishment.(Hear, hear.) And, gentlemen, if we established that Legislative Council by that Act of Confederation, did we not also establish the other great Chamber, the Senate of the Dominion ?Gentlemen, what has been said about that Senate ?It has been said that it was a useless chamber, and that it is the fiffh wheel of à carriage, of the carriage of the State.But, let us examine, and see whether that is justified or not.Now, when you erect a beautiful mansion, do you not put over that mansion a lightning rod ?You go to a great deal of expense to prevent that mansion from being Injured by lightning or electricity.It may be forty or fifty years before the electricity will ~ strike that lightning rod.You nevertheless keep it there, and go to great expense in keeping it there ; and when the lightning rod is struck you see that you were justified in putting the lightning rod there.(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, takeit in another way.You have that beautiful mausion of yours which you have erected, and you take precious care to close your doors and lock them at night.And why do ;you do that ?Had you burglars in your house before ?No.But, you think that if you were to leave those doors open, or if there were no doors at all, the burglars might pay you a nocturnal visit, not very pleasant.You keep the doors and windows and fastenings perfectly tight, because you fear the danger that may occur, perhaps, only once in fifty years.Another thing.Yon are in good health; and what do youdo?You say to yourself, © I must insure my life.\u201d And, why do you insure your life?Is it because you know you will die ro-morrow or today?No.Itisin case of death.It will occur one day or another; and you pay money for perhaps thirty or forty or fifty years; and you say, \u201cI am afraid of death, and want a guarantee against the etfects of death ; and you insure your life as a precaution in case of death.Then, there is another example again.We expend,\u2014and your representatives consent to it,\u2014a large sum of money per year.For what purpose?To maintain the army which my honorable and gallant friend, Mr.Ouimet, just now spoke about.You keep up that army at considerable expenses 1t because you require it to-morrow ?You may not want it for fifty years.The day, however, may come when the army may be required, although it may not be for a great number of years.But, do you hear any one say it is useless?No.You keep it np.And that Senate established by the Confederation Act, and which was a condition of the Confederation, should be maintained, for the reasons which I have given you: and for another good reason.It is this, The Province of Quebec\u2014and I have no dcubt the Maritime Provinceswould not have consented to Confederation if they had not had a counterpoise in the Senate.They kuew that in the House of Commons they were granting a representation based on population, and they knew on the other hand that by having an equal representation of 24 members in the Senate they were guaranteed, in that way, against any undue encroachment on the part of the House of Commons ; and the Senate was established to protect the minority in the provinces, just as the Legislative Council in the Province of Quebec was established to protect the English and Protestant population of the Province of Quebec.[Hear, hear.] Gentlemen, I am afraid I am extending my remarks too far, but I wish to call your attention to one point, which 18 this, that by the great works that we have done and are doing in the Dominion, we have induced not only immigrants to come in from the old countries, but have also induced our own countrymen of all origins, who had gone to the United States, to come back; and thus the population of the country has been increasing very larzely by that means.But this is not the only way the population in this country has been increasing.There is a natural way of increasing the population in this country.And let me \u2018tell yon a little anecdcte about that.I was called upon to go and visit a portion of New Brunswick.Before leaving the Pr vince of Quebec, I Leard by the newspap that there had been four families in the Province of Quebec that had been blessed with twins, { thus making an increase of eight in the four families.I thought that was a good omen for the Province of Quebee ; and I eaid, \u201cTlie province of Quebec is holding her owr in this respect.\u201d When I got to Buctouch:, N.B., however, I was informed that there had been tripletsin that parish.I began to fret aboutmy own province.(Laughter) I feared about my own province when I saw that triplets had appeared in New Brunswick.We had ouly twins ; and Buctouche had triplets ! (Laughter.) But only a few days since Nova Scotia was determined not to be behind New Brunswick, and in Nova Scotia triplets alo saw the light of day.[Laughter.] I was very much more afraid for my own province then.But while I was fretting, that powerful Province Ontario, that ambitious = Province Ontario, attracted my attention ; and I saw, with astonishment, that in the city of Lonlon, which is so welt represented by the Postmaster-General, (cheers) that in tlat city of London there had been quartettes.(Loud laughter and applause) And se, now, gentlemen, I am really afraid for the future of the Province of Quebec, and I call upon you not to forget what I have just said, and let me tell you, you cannot &fford to rest on your laurels, (Renewed laughter and applause) Gentlemen, I wish, before concluding my remarks, to call your attention to certain statistics, that are very important to you, especially the commercial portion of the population of Montreal.I am afraid, however, that my remarks might earry me \u2018office.too far; and therefore I will not read these statistics, but I will hand them to our friends, the members of the press, those gentlemen who always work so lale at night, and who work so well, and who are the right arm of then Government of the country by dint of their industry and their perseverance and their zeal.I will pass these statistics to these gentlemen and you will see that as soon as this report is made that not only the population of Montreal has increased largely, and not only have the manufactures and industries increased, and also the arrivals of vessels, but the imports and exports aud the excise and customs and post-oflice revenues, and, L may say, the deposits in the Post-Office Savings Banks have greatly increased, and that last statistic is one \u2018 which I want particularly to insist upon and to call your attention to.I want you to notice the great increase in the deposits in the Government Post Office Savings Bank during the last four years, because this, gentlemen, shews you, at all events, and you must see it at once, that the earnings of the poor, the earnings of the mechanics, the earnings of the laborers, have been increased largely, and that these men must be prosperous, that they must be content and happy, when, after expending all that is wanted for their comfort and living they have beén able to pat aside during that period such a large sum of money.Gentlemen, let me with these remarks thank, especially you that speak the English language, for this demonstration.You have truly thought that, though not of your religion aud fanguage, I could represent you in the councils of the nation that 1 could represent you fairly in the government of the country.I would not remain in the Government of my country if I were only the representative of one race.{Cheers.] I am not merely proud of enjoying the confidence of a very large majority of my French-Canadian countrymen,\u2014not only of the Conservative party, but,\u2014and I acknowledge it with pleasure, \u2014a great many of those differing from us in politics ;\u2014yet notwithstanding that I must add that Tam most happy to say that I feel by your demonstration this evening that that confidence in me is not limited to French Canadians, but that you who speak the Engjish language also grant and repose in me that confidence [loud } cheers].Gentlemen, I hope the day will not come when yon will withdraw that confidence from me.The confidence vou give me is a sacred trust; and whether I am in the Government or out of the Government of my country you may be sure that my efforts shall always be in the interest of my countrymen, whether of French, English, Scotch, Irish or any other origin, and that your interests will ever be taken care of, and that at all times you may rely on my exertions and on the power I may be able to exercise in the Government or in Parliament in furtherance of those interests.I thank you once more, gentlemen, for this grand ~ demonstration.[Loud and enthusiastic cheering and waving of handkerchiefs, etc.] DOMINION MINISTERS.Sir A.T.Galt then rose, and after the applause created by his appearance had subsided, he proceeded in able terms to propose the tcast of the \u201cDominion Ministers.\u201d He referred to the past services which Sir Hector Langevin had rendered to the country and the singleness of purpose and great ability he had displayed in all his public actions.Sir Alexander concluded his remarks by coupling with the toast the names of Sir Alex.Campbell and Hon.Mr.Chapleau.Sir Alex.Campbell replying, dwelt upon the general services rendered by his colleague, the Minister of Public Works, with whom ne had been associated for many years.He referred to the feeling that ex- 1sted in some quarters against the Senate of the Dominion, which some said was unnecessary and useless.He thought, however, that the great majority of the people of the Dominion would not\u201d soncur in this opinion [applause].He referred to the course pursued by the Senate at the time when the McKenzie Government came into Mr.McKenzie had been returned to power and though it was in the power of the Senate to make things very troublesome, they felt that it was their duty to bow to the will of the people, and from beginning to end of the Mackenzie Administagtion the action of the Senate had been characterized by moderation and forbearance.(Applause.) He instanced several cases to show thie.It had been said that there were eot enough Reformers in the Senate ; he would be frank and say that he hoped that there would be more reformers in the Senate.(Applause.) He concluded by again expressing his pleasure at being present to do honor to his distinguished colleague, HON.MR.CHAPLEAU, who received a perfect ovation on rising, being received by the band playing ¢ For he\u2019s a jolly, good fellow,\u201d said that he was a very young member of the Government, and he had forgotten his lesson book for a (Laughter.) But he hoped to learn from the lessons of the past.(Applause) He sought to represent in the Cabinet the love of patriotism and of sacrifices for one\u2019s country.His desire was to work for the good of the country, to aid those who were wiser than himself, and to help to make the nation the great and powerful one of which the guest of the evening had spoken.(Applause.) He denied emphatical y that there were any dissensions in the Dominion Cabinet; it might not be a model government in some respects, but it was a model government in the fraternity and good feeling that existed between all its members.(Loud applause.) The hon.gentleman concluded an eloquent address by a grace ful allusion to the departure of the Marquis of Lorne and the Princess Louise and the arrival of the new Governor-General, and resumed hi- seat amid loud applause.Mr.Hugh McLennan, in proposing the toast of THE °° PARLIAMENT OF GANADA,\u201d spoke in high terms of the nobility and grandeur of the character of the lamented Sir George Etienne Cartier.Had this demonstration of to-night no further significance than a mere honor to a political character, was it not rather an evidence that they recognized in the lieutenant the ualities that had distinguished the chief.He took great pleasure in proposing the toast.political speech.HON, SENATOR OGILVIE, in responding on behalf of the Senate of the Dominion, said that in his opinion men should go to the Senate devoid of any partizanship and vote for all good measures.[Applause.j He referred in favorable terms to the services of Sir Hector Langevin, and expressed the hope that he would long be spared to the country.Messrs.C.J.Coursol, M.P.,and J.J.Curran, M.P., also responded.Mr.C.J.Doherty then proposed the toast of * The Government and the Legislature of Quebec,\u201d which drew forth an able response from Hon.J.A.Mousseau, who referred to the services of the guest to the Province of Quebec.Mr.H.Bulmer proposed the Press, which was responded to by Mr.Jos.Tasse, M.P The Mayor then proposed the toast of « The Ladies,\u201d which drew forth a fitting reply from Mr.J.H.G.Bergeron, M.P.Sir Hector Langevin next rose and proposed the health of the chairman, Mayor Beaudry, and in doing so, said that the fact that His Worship the Mayor had been clected time after time by the people of ficent recognition of his merit.(A pplause.) His Worship having returned thanks, the gathering was brought to a termination shortly before two \u2019clock.The Subscribers, The following is a list of the subscribers :\u2014 A\u2014Allard Louis, Archambault F.X., Abbott J.J.C., Hon., Arpin Charles, Archambault J.L., Allan Hugh A., Allan Bryce J., Allan H.Montague, Montreal; Angers E.Panch, Amyot G., Quebec; Armstrong J.Hon,, Armstrong J.de L., Armstrong À.N., Armstrong L.O., Atkins J., Montreal.B\u2014Belanger N., Montreal; Bastien B., St.Vincent de Paul; Beaudry H., Belair A.P., Bomier E., Blanchard L V., Bergeron J.GIL, Beanbicn Louis, Bissonnet A, Montreal; Benoit P.B., M.D; Salut-lfubert; Bergevin C., M.P.P., Beauharnois; Blanchet M.Hon., Quebec; Bethune Strachan, Beaudry J.L.Hon,, Bulmer II.J., Bourque E.J.Dr, Bellemare B., Bourassa J.Bte.et N., Bourassa Noe, Barre J.L., Beauchamp L.E,, Bulmer Henry, Brossard A.H., Bourgouin Naz.H., Bowie D.E, Busteed E.B., Branchaud A., Montreal: Bertrand Charies, Ile Verte; Bzaudet E., Bosse Joseph G., Quebec; Branchette J_ G., Levi; Bourbeau D.E, Bolqy, L.A., Bolduc Joseph, Bisaillon L.J.Brosseau T., Montreal; Beaugrand J.B.H., Iberville; Beaubien A.H., St.Johns; Boivin G., Beaugrand H., Beaudin \u2014., Beaudry Alphonse, Montreal; Brosseau Lieutenant- Colonel, Brisson T.A.Dr., Brossard Julien, Laprairie; Beauchemin A.V.T., St.Hyacinthe;Biack Johu, Black K.,St.Johny; Beaudry P.J.Ubalde, Montreal; Bourbeau J.oO.Victoriaville; Baker lL.1B., Beauharnois; Beaudry J.E., Ste.Jean Baptiste Village; Boivin J.A., Montreal; Booth John B., Baskerville P., M.P.P., Berkett Thomas, Borbridge W.S., Ottawa; Brossard Moise, Brown J.J., Barbeau Henri, Montreal.©C\u2014Champagne C.L., Colbert E.D., Chan teloup E., Cheney!

Herald, a Government journal, in the course of an interesting article on the seizure by the collector of Customs of Montreal of Paine\u2019s and Voltaire\u2019s works, remarks :\u2014 Without anticipating the judgment on that point it is fair to the collector to say that if he wanted to obey the existing law his action was reasonable enough.There is need of more definite rules and definitions in this matter.There are hundreds of books coming into the country more blasphemous than either of those seized.It is hard to understand why Mill should be allowed to come into the country if Kenyon is right or -even if Judge Stephen is correct.And, as is said by the Westminster Review, Strauss\u2019 ¢ Leben Jesu,\u201d Renan\u2019s \u201cLife of Christ,\u201d and Compte\u2019s works are, according to English common law, blasphemous Tibels.But all Canadians who make any pretension to scholarship have read some cr all of these works.Clergymen of culture have them and read them, and those of no culture quote ortho dox opinions of them, and show their hearers that there is nothing in these books.Shelley\u2019s * Queen Mab\u201d was in 1840 de cided to be a blasphemous libel.Certainly the speech of the Wandering Jew in \u201cQueen Mab\u201d must be as offensive to any person as anything in the \u201c Age of Reason.\u201d But who ever heard of a custom house officer refusing to admit Shelley\u2019s ms ?And why should the works of yron, many of whose poems are clearly blasphemous within the meaning of the law, be admitted?And Ingersoll\u2019s lectures, which are not only open to the same objection but insulting to Christian people, come into Canada every day.Itis said that Paine is indecent.But there is an American alleged poet (whom, by the way, Rossetti and many other European critics have pronounced the greatest of American oets), in comparison with whom Paine, ielding and Smollet are as chaste as icicles, and the works of that poet are allowed to come into this country freely.The fact is the law is a humbug on account of its indefiniteness.The customs collectors should be instructed.The question is, who shall instruct them ?A man who has not read all the bad books that are likely to come in does not seem to be in a position to do so, and the man who has read them all is likely to be an unbelieving and more or less immoral and blasphemous individual.We take exception to the opinion that \u201cif the collector wished to obey the \u201cexisting law his action was reasonable \u201cenough.\u201d The collector's action was most unreasonable.He could scarcely have been unaware of the fact that the books referred to could not possibly have been aimed at.He must have known that they were in the public libraries of Canada.He must also have known that the object of the law was to exclude those ephemeral publications which, being lewd and lascivious, have been poured into Canada of late years to the contamination of the private morals and the destruction of the purity of character of the youth of this country.To wreg the law from its proper intent and purpose and to make it an engine for the punishment of free thinkers in religious matters is what the collectors of Customs at Montreal and Toronto have been doing; and if the Government of Canada has not the moral courage to check its officers in their high handed proceedings, it is time the courts gave them to understand , that religious liberty still exists in Canada.Who would want to live in this country with the little officials of a Government spying into their private reading and declaring what they shall read on religious and controversial subjects, and what they shall not read ?How long would a Government last in Canada that would dare to avow such a policy?To say that official action which strikes at the very root of man\u2019s liberties, personal and public, is \u201c reasonable enough\u2019 is a monstrous proposition in this free country in the year of grace 1883.The collector had no right to assume that the law of Parliament was intended to override man\u2019s inalienable rights as understood in this enlightened age.He should not have assumed that Parliament had constituted the servants of the people of Canada the censors of the people in matters of faith and higher morals.He should have hesitated before acting as if Parliament could reverse tlic hand of Time and send us back to those ages when to think for one\u2019s self was regarded as an outrage on the State and the Church, when, in fact, life was scarcely worth the living.Now, let us see on what authority the collectors at Toronto and Montreal have been proceeding.The General Customs Act of 1879, with amendments, says :(\u2014 Chap.3.The gocds enumerated in Schedule D shall not be imported into Canada, under the penalty therein mentioned, and if imported shall be forfeited and forthwith destroyed.Schedule D declares as follows :\u2014 The following articles shall be prohibited to be imported under the penalty of $200, together with the forfeiture of the parcel or package of goods in which the saine may be found, viz.:\u2014 Books, printed papers.drawings, paintings, prints, photographs or representations of any kind of a treasonable or seditious, or of an immoral or indecent character.This is admitted to be the sole authority on which the collectors have been proceeding.Now, there is nothing new in this feature of the law.It has been à provision of every Canadian Customs Act during the present generation, and has been the law of England and America for two hundred years.Referring to past acts, we find in the laws of old Canada, consolidated in 1859, the same provision in the following words :\u2014 The following articles are prohibited to be imported under a penalty of two hundred dollars, together with the forfeiture of the parcel or package of goods in which the same may be found : .Books, Drawings, Paintings and Prints of an immoral or indecent character.At Confederation we were giyen a new Customs Act, and this section of the law of 1859 was incorporated, word for word.It will be noticed that the addition in the Customs Act of 1879 is of these words :\u2014 Printed paper, photographs or representations of any kind, etc.\u2019 a principal object, apparently, being to reach a class of immoral or indecent publications or \u201crepresentations \u201d which could not be classed with \u201cbooks, drawings, paiptings or prints.\u201d Photographs and breastpins were favorite means of introducing indecent pictures, and the law was altered to include these and other indecent and immoral agencies.No Canadian legislator ever fancied that by the additions of 1879 he was giving the Customs officers power to establish a censorship over controversial works or to exclude from Canada books which Parliament had itself brought in and placed in the Parliamentary library; and none except those who were incapable of exercising a sound judgment or desired to magnify the importance of their office would ever have thought.of torturing the law to the purposes to which it has been put by the officials of Toronto and Montreal.As a matter of fact the books which are now tabooed have always passed through the Custom House without challenge, for the excellent reason that there was no law against it.Public opinion and the law have agreed in recognizing them as neither immoral nor indecent within the true meaning of such terms.This matter has been settled by higher authority than that of Customs officials\u2014by that great authority, the public conscience, which has proclaimed religious toleration, the right to think and spegk freely, the right to hold just such opinions as to every man seems most proper.the right to read just such controversial books as he pleases, provided he interferes not with the liberty of others.If these books have been introduced into the Parliamentary Library of Canada, into many semi-public libraries, into the libraries of hundreds of clergymen and of thousands of gentlemen of culture and refinement, and if this has been going on for very many years, how can any collector of Customs at this date venture to class them with \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d publications ?Are \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d works to be found in the quarters we have indicated, and are such books read by the classes of people we have named ?Again, if such books are \u201cimmoral and indecent\u201d within the meaning of the law, why have they been allowed to enter Canada under the law?Why were they not suppressed or destroyed long ago ?There has not, at any time, rested the slightest doubt upon the meaning of the law, and it is to be hoped that Customs officials will now be taught that they can not be permitted to do what Parliament itself dare not attempt.We can not agree with the Halifax Herald in saying the law is \u201cindefinite.\u201d The wording of the law is perfectly proper; it is the Custom House official that needs reconstructing, PROFESSOR TANNER ON CANADA.We have received the first sheet of the report on the mission to Canada of Professor Tanner, the senior member of the Royal Agricultural College of England, addressed to the Council of the Institute of Agriculture.Professor Tanner is an author of high reputation on agricultural questions and the object of his visit to Canada was to inquire into the advantages or otherwise which surround emigration to \u2018the Dominion.As he states, the utmost confusion existed in England in the minds of those interested in agriculture as to the true position of affairs in Canada.The reports of the Delegates of the British farmers who had visited Canada \u201cshowed very clearly, that emigration, prudently carried out, gave unbounded facilities for securing a comfortable support, and for the accumulation of profits.The writers of these reports were known to be persons possessing much practical experience, and thoroughly worthy of confidence.The issue of these important reports was soon followed by a large series of letters, and other communications to the press, giving most painful details of what were alleged to be the personal experiences of disappointed emigrants.When an explanation was sought for, as to this conflict of testimony it was then asserted that the delegates bad been hoodwinked by government officials, and taken to selected spots which did not fairly represent the districts in which emigrants would have to settle.It was also alleged that the kind and bospitable treatment which they had received had influenced their judgments, and that their reports were practically valueless in consequence, Statements such as these were received with just indignation by those to whom the delegates were personally known.\u201d Hoping to throw some light upon this conflict of testimony, Professor Tanner states that his enquiry took the form indicated in the following questions, to which this report is intended as a reply :\u2014 First: Why have we had such contradictory reports upon the condition of our emigrants in Canada ?Secondly : Can emigration to Canada be safely recommended, and if so, what facilities exist for the protection and general welfare of our emigrants ?Professor Tanner goes on to state that às soon as it was known that he was about to visit Canada he was favored with various communications, warning him as to the difficulties and losses which had fallen upon settlers in this country, Some of these came from Canada, others from parties in England, and the severest censures were contained in some of these letters upon those who, it way alleged, had misled the public by highly colored reports upon farming in Canada.Singularly enough, none of Dr.Tanner\u2019s numerous correspondents were able to give him any names or addresses of unsuccessful emigrants in Canada, but generally referred him to certain Canadian newspapers for information.The Professor therefore proceeded on his tour in Canada intending to judge for himself by personal observation as to the truth or falsity of these stories.He travelled fully five thousand miles within Canadian territory and, as he says, \u201c J had most favorable opportunities for coming in contact with settlers, not only in the older Provinces of the Dominion, butgn Manitoba, and even beyond its borders, in the Assiniboia District of the North West Territories.Throughout the whole of this lengthened tour of inspection I found those settled upon the lands happy, prosperous, and healthy.After conversing freely with large numbers of these settlers, I am able to state that I did not meet with a single instance in which they were not fairly successful, contented, and full of hope for the future.They worked hard, it is true, but that labor was sweetened by the knowledge that they were improving their own property.Their personal requirements were easily provided for by the aid of a rich and productive soil, their families were growing up around them in the enjoyment of health, and without any anxiety being felt as to their future success in life.These facts, which came under my own observation, compel me therefore to\u2019 state that the unfavorable reports upon Canada which have been published in this country do not fairly represent the condition of affairs in Canada.\u201d On the other hand, he adds that he is equally bound to state that the reports of the Delegates are substantially correct and worthy of confidence, and that in his opinion there is no justification whatever for the attacks which have been made upon them.Professor Tanner soon discovered the origin of the unfavorable reports in regard to Canada which had found their way to England.They came from Western Land Agents whose interest it was to turn the tide of emigration from Canada to the United States, and he gives the follow:ng illustration of how Canada is misrepresented by those \u2018parties, which we quote : One illustrative fact may be useful at this point, although it is but one of ten thousand.1 shall have occasion hereafter to draw attention to the very successfnl settlement which has been established 1n the North-West of Canada, by the assistance rendered to her tenantry by Lady Gordon-Cathcart.As the first detachment of her settlers were travelling to their destination, it became necessary for them to pass by railway through a portion of the United States, in consequence of the Canadian Pacific Railway being then incomplete.In doing so they were met by a number of persons who were to all appearance ordinary fellow travellers.These urged them to remain in the States, whilst the extraordinary accounts they gave of the North-West of Canada filled their minds with disappointment and fear.Some said they could not escape the fearful floods of the spring, others assured them they would be baked by the fearfully hot summer, whilst another group knew perfectly well that they would be frozen in winter.As they proceeded they gradually discovered the trick which had been played upon them, and they laughed at the doubts which had been so easily raised.¢ And now you have settled here, what do you think of the place?\u201d I enquired of one of the party.\u201c Aye, ahr he reverently replied, it is really a Godly country.\u201d Incidents such as theseare simply numberless in their variety and form, for there are large numbers of persons who are thus employed throughout the emigration season, and whose duty it is to persuade emigrants to settle in some other district than that to which they are journeying, and these agents are remunerated according to their success.In the instance which I have quoted, the deception was attempted in the United States, Puc I need scarcely say that there is no monopoly of virtue on either side of the boundary line, for if it is six to one, it is half a dozen to the other.This class of misrepresentation is quite of the common rauk, but the same object is carried out with greater delicacy and refinement when those of a higher grade have to be decoyed.Here also we find additional interests influencing the work, and whenever the full history is revealed of the correspondence upon Canadian matters which has this year caused so much anxiety and fear in Great Britain and Ireland, it will be a source of surprise to know how much of it was manufactured, within half a mile of the London Stock Exchange.Let, then, a veil be allowed to fall upou the past, in the hope that a successful trick may not be repeated.The moral of the tale is tolerably clear, for it indicates that in future the acceptance of any such narratives of failure should be made dependent upon our knowledge of the persons making such statements.Communications which do not admit of their being tested and verified, should be regarded as worse than useless.I have before me at this moment one of the letters published in England in July last, it has not even an initial attached to it, and it is addressed from Farm, Manitoba, under date of June 3rd.Now, considering that Manitoba is considerably larger than Great Britain and Ireland, the address is singularly incomplete and unusual.I feel confident that the Press may be relied upon for securing emigrants from a repetition of the serious wisrepresentations which have become 80 common during the last twelve months, and I will gladly render any assistance in my power in enquiring into any cases which may be referred to me.LAVAL.The Gazette does not appear to take much interest in the Laval contested election case, now that its friend, Mr.Leblanc\u2019s, acts are being enquired into.We notice that Mr.Ouimet, M.P., bas been an active distributor of the money of the corruption fund.We suppose Mr.Ouimet knows of the penalty for such violations of law.The result of the proceedings is likely to prove a warning to Dominion politicians to keep their hands off the Provincial elections.Matters have gone so badly with Mr.Leblanc that his © petitioner\u201d has filed a declaration that he will not be held responsible for any further proceedings.Norwithstanding this announcement the Court is going on with the case, which grows more interesting daily.Tux BisHorric of Hurox.\u2014It will be seen

important part which the Dean has played in connexion with the advancement of the interests of the Church of England in this city and diocese, will regret to learn of the great loss the Church here is about to sustain ; while they can not fail to appreciate the mark of confidence which the church in another part of Canada has just conferred on a most worthy churchman and Christian\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE reports from the City Treasurer and City Auditor, laid before the City Council yesterday, in the case of the defaulting cashier in the city\u2019s finance department, are very far from being satisfactory.We do not see how Mr.Robb can speak so confidently of the deficit in the police department\u2019s fund, consisting chiefly of shortages in cash and not em- bezzlements, as he (Mussen) spoke freely to the accountant of the police department at the time (June last) and told him he was 81,500 astray in that account, which he was endeavoring to trace.\u201d If there were \u201cshortages in cash,\u201d who has got the \u201ccash?\u201d And whose fault is it that such a serious matter has remained unsettled since June last ?Two able bodied dynamiters appear to have been securely caged in Halifax.They were abundantly supplied with dynamite, and one of them had a Boynton swimming suit.It looks as if the intention was to use this suit in an attempt to blow up a man-of-war in Halifax harbor, and thus stimulate the collection of money in the United States for Fenian uses.The men were taken before the Stipendiary Magistrate yesterday, and remanded for a few days.As there are two of them in trouble, the chances are in favor of one of them \u201c peaching.\u201d _ a mireememtenn es SERVED THEM RIGHT.\u2014A Vienna telegram says that

The train runs up within a few yards of this wonderful edifice, lighted as it is with electric light, aud built of wood in ninety-six days.It is a fairy-like scene.The lake stretching away on both sides, the deep black of the surrounding woods, and last, but not least, highly dressed forms moving about on a sort of large verandab, which runs over 300 yards, the whole length of the building.\u201d It certainly was a haven of rest to tired travellers, and a welcome change from the cars, luxurious even as they are.We had an excellent dinner, and after some first-rate speeches, and plenty of health and prosperity drinking, we all went to roost with the mixed strains of a Highland reel, and ¢ Should auld acquaintance be forgot,\u201d mingling in our ears.The hotel holds now over 400 people, and six years ago Indians were roaming about in freedom where it now stands.It will undoubtedly become a fashionable summer resort, znd is now much used by people from St.Paul, Chicago and Minneapolis.On Saturday we ran back to Minneapolis and inspected the magnificent bridge in that town all made of stone, and the most substantial structure I have seen in this country ; then to St.Paul, whence we started at 3 o\u2019clock.We passed till nightfall through partially cultivated wheat lands, and reached the open prairie at a place called Fergus Fall.At 7 the next,morning (Sunday) we were at breakfast at Winnipeg, and a most excellent meal it was.I had the pleasure of driving over the town with Mr.Donald Smith, the last governor in the West of the Hudson Bay Company.He gave us a most graplie account of the growth of this marvellous town and country, having as its inhabitants, only a few yeurs ago, 1,000 half-breed Indians aud Hudson\u2019s Bay officials, and now a population of 20,000.Winnipeg itself is admirably situated to be a capital town, standing as it does on the point of land formed by the junction of the Red River and the Assiniboine.There are good substantial buildings in the town, and it now has every indication of steady sterliug prosperity, After a two hours\u2019 stay we steamed out of the station ACROSS THE GREAT PRAIRIE, & vast expanse of green for the first seventy miles or so, & country with magnificent hay crops and a wealth of deep black loam.After a bit we arrived at Portage la Prairie, a flourishing town of about 2,000 people, and then on through very well cultivated lands, good oats, wheat and potatoes, with all other ordinary vegetables growing to perfection.The settlers all appear 0st comfortable, and look more ruddy and healthy than the men further south.We kept going through country which in every instance is capable of being settled up with advantage to the settler\u2014 Some of 1t as grazing farms, but most of best fitted for tillage.Regina we reached at night, so were unable to see what is, I believe, à very flourishing place.Monday morning.\u2014The prairie is now more of a rolling character and well fitted for grazing, as water exists in plenty all along the fine.At about eleven we arrived at Medicine Hat, where the Saskatchewan 18 crossed.This place strikes me as one that will grow to be a very large town, being the centre of a most fertile district, and being a future port on the Saskatchewan for steamers sailing to Prince Albert.The first boat had just come in, and was lying alongside taking in stores, and the agent told Mr.Stephen that the navigation had not proved at all difficult.Coal of good quality was also found in the neigh- orhood, while that which was burnt from Medicine Hat to Calgary seemed to he of smoke than that ordinarily used.The latter coal comes from seme mines opened D Sir A.Galt and a company of, I believe, nglish capitalists.After leaving Medicine Hat there is a very steep grade, and after passing that we come on a VERY FLAT DIT OF FRAIRIE-LAND, well adapted at some points for cattle grazing.There are now no more villages or settlements to speak of, as the track has only been lately laid, but the whole of the land between the Bow and Red Deer Rivers seem of the highest order.The grass looks well, close and thick, and even a few oat plants, left by the teamsters, were very strong and healthy, with good ears.There seems to be also in man places an immense depth of alluvial soil, and from what I have seen in Nebraska and Dakota, I have no doubt in the world but that as fine crops will be produced and as vast herds of cattle reared as in the best circumstanced prairie - land of the States.We reached Calgary about 6 p.m., and found it charmingly situated in a sort gh hollow in the hills, with the Bow River running through it, while the rich grasses and strong soil around it prove that not only for grazing but agricultural purposes \u2018it will be a great head- centre of all that is valuable to a farming community.Land and town sites are going up daily in value, and it should become, what I believe it will, the Denver of the North-West.We hear to-night that indications of gold and silver are being found in the mountains, and apparently every product necessary for the prosperity of a country is to be obtained, if sought for.We are now at THE END OF THE TRACK, and we must part company ; some of us go to our ranges, and others to return to their homes by the same perfect route; but before we do part I must say a few words of thanks to those who have throughout this long journey so cared for our necessities and ministered to our wants in every way, and have treated us all with a hospitalit unrivalled and a kindness unparalleled.The trip has been a most successful one in every way, and I am sure no men can be more satistied with all they have seen and done than the directors themselves; but while pressing on this great enterprise as they are, and looking to the settlement of these vast domains as one of their most desirable ends, they should remember that they are carrying out a scheme which will in all probability revolutionise the carrying trade of one part of the world.Once the great line epans this Continent from Montreal to the Pacific, China and New Zealand and many of the most important Eastern ports will be three or four days nearer to Europe and her market.The teas and aromatic spices of the East, the wool of New Zealand, and the * hard corn of Manitoba,\u201d so highly prized by millers, will travel together In the same curs, and THE BOXD OF IRON AND STEAM which is now binding every section of the globe will have no more glorious link than the Canadian Pacific Railway.Let England and these colonies remember that those chains are the ones which connect the mother country with her children; it is by ties of trade and prosperity that the true strings of affection and mutual welfare are knitted, and I believe and feel the great highway we have just passed over may, if strongly supported and bravely protected, prove, in the near future, oue of the great features of what I believe most rational Englishmen and colonists desire\u2014 a great confederate commercial union or \u201cBund\u201d of Eugland and, her colonies.Surely the men who have by enlerprise, sagacity, and pluck brought this great prospect in the near future deserve well of their fellow men.Let me, therefore, conclude by wishing prosperity to the Canadian Pacific Railway and good luck to the directors and the good train that has brought us 2,600 miles.CORRESPONDENCE.Correction.To the Editor of the HERALD.You have reported the tender of the Citizens Gas Company as stipulating for only twenty-cne nights per month of street lighting; no such stipulation appears in the tender, nothing less than 365 days per annum were spoken of or contemplated.The fact that the existing contract of the old company specifies for only twenty-one nights per month may have led to the confusion on this point.Yours truly, Joun B.TRESIDDER, Secretary pro tem.Go to R.J.TOOKE\u2019S

had a power of attorney signed by Mr.Leblanc authorizing him to represent him at the poll.Sometimes he went out to speak to persons, and seemed to me to act as a cataller.I did not see Edouard Desy arranging for vehicles to bring up voters.The petitioner, Felix Lavoie, at this stage,presented a declaration praying to be relieved from all responsibility for any ulterior proceedings which may be had.The enquefe was thereupon adjourned to Thursday morning to enable Mr.Mercier to take communication of the declaration referred to.The proceedings were continued yesterday morning.CYRIAC ST.AMOUR, was the first witness.He said : Chrysostome Huot asked me to take part in the election.I refused.I had not been paid the expenses of previous elections of different candidates.Mr.Huot thereupon gave me $95.CHRYSOSTOME HUOT.was then sworn.He said : Tam the person just referred to by St.Amour.I took an active part in the last election.on behalf of Mr.Leblanc.JOSEPH CLEROUX, farmer, of St.Martin, was then sworn and testified : I took part in Mr.Leblanc\u2019s two elections.I received $122 from Mr.Leblanc.I acted as carter.I received this amount in partial payments, at different times, $50 1n December, and $60 at another date.Mr.Leblanc used my horse, .sometimes I went with him as carter, at others he went alone.He used my horse for three months.On polling-day I brought electors who had a right to vote, to the poll, in my vehicle.The previous evenin Mr.Leblanc asked me to employ my horse in bringing up electors.Mr.Leblanc did not personally ask me to carry electors ; he asked the crowd publicly for persons to convey the electors.On the evening previous to the polling, Mr.Leblanc asked me to go to the city for a voter.The last $60 which I received from Mr.Leblanc I got from him in the month of May.When I drove about with Mr.Leblanc, it was he who paid the expenses.I am not a carter by occupation.1 hire out my horse occasionally, as an exceptional thing.Cross-examined :\u2014Before hiring out my mare to Mr.Leblanc, I could have had $150, but not so much after the election.At this stage of the proceedings, Mr.Boisvert produced a declaration, signed by the petitioner, Felix Lavoie, disclaiming his responsibility respecting the costs incurred in the enquete against \"the mis en cause.Mr.Mercier asked that notice of this be given him, which was ordered by the Court.EUSEBE LAURIN, sworn: 1 live\u2019 at Bord-a Plouffe; I had visits from Mr.Leblanc on several occasions during the election of 1882.I supported Mr.Leblanc.Mr.Bel lerose, Mr.Allard, and some others told me that the speakers on both sides could not speak at certain localities.We contemplated organizing at Bord-a-Plouffe a body of men to keep the peace.I went to St.Rose with a number of vehicles.A rumor was in circulation that a number of butchers from Montreal and several others, intended to create a disturbance at St.Rose on nomination day.With respect to the legal expenses which might be incurred at Bord-a-Plouffe some one told me that they would be paid at Montreal.I was told I might engage carters, and money was given me to pay them.It wasat Alderic Ouimet\u2019s house that the rendezvous was held.Inthe atternoon, after having been at Mr.Ouimet\u2019s, I went to Mr.Leblanc\u2019s.Here we spoke of Mr.Bellerose.I said to Mr, Leblanc that Mr.Ouimet had told me that these expenses were legal ones; he (Mr.Leblanc) veplied < That is correct.\u201d There was no question of the number of vehicles I was to bring.I afterwards paid for the vehicles which wanted their money.There were some at $2, and some at $3.I went to Mr.Alderic Ouimet for the money.Ido not remember whether it was $75 or $50 that he gave me.There was à committee meeting at Sauriol\u2019s, in the county, where the question of these vehicles was discussed.This committee meeting was to make arrangements for nomination day.Mr.Leblanc was there.He did not speak to me about the vehicles; I think he must have known what was going on.The Court then took a recess.AFTER RECESS, the evidence of Eusebe Laurin was proceeded with as follows :\u2014In 1882, I had not sufficient money to pay the election ex- senses.In 1883, I was paid $50, the Palance of the amount I expended in 1852.On the following day, or 1n the evening 1 think Mr.Ouimet took precautions to the evening before, or on the day after, or it might have been on the evening of the same day, that I received the $50.Mr.Ouimet gave me these $50 in a room at Mr.Bourassa\u2019s.I saw Mr.Leblane with Mr.Ouimet on the gallery.This was some time after I went into the room.In 1882 I tcok part in a committee heldZat Venance Lemay\u2019s.There were about thirty persons present, two thirds of whom were electors.Mr.Leblanc was in the bar room at that time.I paid $10 to the proprietor for rent for the committee meeting and other expenses.Liquor was drunk.Mr.Leblanc drank with us.TI spoke to Mr.Leblanc at Montreal or somewhere else about a committee that was to be formed.Mr.Leblanc must have known that it was necessary to pay for holding a meeting at Mr.Lemay\u2019s.After paying the $10 for the committee, I spoke to Mr.Leblanc about it; that was some days after.The first time that Mr.Leblanc came to my house, three months before the election, I told him not to talk to me about anything of a compromising nature respecting the election, such as election expenses, and that I would not speak to him on the subject either.I did not wish that we should compromise ourselves, Mr.Ouimet read me the law on election expenses and he gave me money for them.I said, \u2018 the more you give me the more will Ido,\u201d I never asked for money in Mr.Leblanc\u2019s presence._ Cross-Examined: When I took the carters to keep the peace, they were at libert to vote for whom they pleased.Mr.Bellerose was the first to speak to me about organizing.When Mr.Bellerose and myself consulted a man of law, it was in order not to incur illegal ex- | penses.[ used the money which I received from Mr.Ouimet in paying the ex- euses of the committee and the carters.prevent corruption.It was understood that in case I had not enough money Mr.Ouimet would furnish me with it to pay the carters.I was to be re-imbursed this money.I told Mr.Leblanc that I would not ask anything at all for my influence or my vote.When Mr.Bezeau treated a dozen of electors in company with Mr.Leblanc, the latter said he could not return the compliment, because the law would not permit him to do so.The enquete was then, adjourned to this morning at 10.30.DID SHE DIE?\u201cNo! \u201c She lingered and suffered along, pining away all the time for years,\u201d \u201c The doctors doing her no good ;\u201d \u201c And at last was cured by this Hop Bitters the papers say so much about.\u201d \u201cIndeed!

of Lansdowne.2 It is probable that there will be a general illumination of the city on Monday evening in honor of the arrival of the Marquis of Lansdowne.The civic address will be presented to him on Tuesday.Sir A.T.Galt, it is said here, will short- 1y leave for England.The convention of the Ontario W.C.T.U.concluded its labors to-day, when a large quantity of miscellaneous business was transacted by the delegates.All the officers were re-elected for the ensuing year.Standing committees were ap- ointed on prison and gaal work, on legis- ation, influencing the press, on the use of unfermented wine for Sacramental purposes, in county or township fairs and volunteer camps, on presenting the claims of temperance to religious and other bodies, and on scientific information on temperance.Mrs.Chisholm, of Hamilton, was appointed a delegate to confer on the subject of forming a Dominion Union.A number of resolutions were adopted, among them one urging the introduction of temperance books into the schools, one urging the necessity of banishing wine from the communion table, and one pledging the members of the Union to abstain from patronizing groceries where liquor is sold.Seven delegates were appointed to attend the national convention of the W.C.T.U.of the United States, to be held in Detroit on October 31st.After some discussion it was decided, on a vote of 13 to 7, to circulate petitions to be presented to the Dominion Parliament next session asking for total prohibition.After the transaction of some miscellaneous business the \u2018convention adjoured, to meet next year in Hamilton.Two pianos and organs were purchased in this city to-day for the Marquis of Lansdowne, My -suitent of real and personal The 2e incom \u201cÊthe City of Ottawa TO c -a Fr The year 1884 has been «.pleted Tho the assessment commissioners.figures indicate a satisfactory increase, both in assessable property and population.The total real property 1s assessed at $11,105,025, as against $10,768,492 in the year 1883, an increase of $336,553.The population has increased proportionately, = The assessors place the total population of the city at 27,645, an increase of 1,417 over the assessment of 1883.The actual figures given do not represent the number of souls in the city as the assessors, for various reasons, never can ascertain the exact population.Ten per cent might fairly be added to the whole and this would place the total population of the city at about 30,000.One new feature,in connection with the assessment of 1884, was the assessment of the income of the Civil servants resident here.This amounts to $756,375, but the question whether the tax on this can be legally levied will, no doubt, be adj udicated upen by the Privy Council of England, the Civil servants having already entered a protest.hr.Hugh Ryan, of the Quebec and Ontario Railway, was in the city to-day in regard to procuring some land for the erection of telegraph poles on the line with which he is identified.QUEBEC.Nomination for Levis\u2014Customs Inspec= tion \u2014 \u201cA\u201d Battery Notes\u2014St.John\u2019s Church\u2014Personal\u2014 Preparing for Lord Lansdowne, Special to

Bayfield, Huron county.The judgment was signed on the consent of the solicitor, whose authority to act for him defendant disputes, and 1s now moving on that ground, and also that he has a meritorious defence to set aside the judgment.Plaintiffs contend that the real applicants are subsequent to execution.Creditors, who seek to defeat the plaintiffs, present priority.Judgment was reserved.The Corporation of Trinity College has purchased a block of land for $10,500 adjoining the college grounds.The Consumers Gas Company has decided to lower the price of gas to ordinary consumers after the

the resolution offered by Prof.Hopkins, of Auburn Theological Seminary, commending the sentiments expressed in the recent pastoral letter of the Roman Catholic provincial couneil, the committee reported that while the substance of the letter commended itself to the Synod yet it was | improper that the Synod should take notice of it.A long discussion followed.Prof, Hopkins spoke in support of the position he had taken, and read extracts from the pastoral letter concerning divorce and Sunday excursions, which were received with general favor.He said it was eminently proper that the Synod should notice the progressive spirit manifested by the Roman Catholic Church.Rev.Dr.John Hall opposed these views, saying that any laudatory statement made by the Synod would be treated as a concession of Protestantism to Romanism.Finally, the report was modified by an amendment reducing it to a statement that the Synod refused to interfere with the affairs of other denominations and it was then adopted.THE CLOSE OF THE REVOLUTION.The Newburg Centennial.NEWBURG, N.Y., October 18.\u2014 The great centennial celebration in honor of the close of the war of the Revolution was held here

held in the town hall to-night.Mr.John Bright presided and said it was absolutely necessary that if any progress was to be mace in Parliamentary reform that the question of the suffrage be dealt with first in a separate bill.He recommended that the Government deal, during the coming session, with the county suffrage and the London corporation reform bills, There is one question, he continued, which is not very remote and which will have tu be faced, namely the constant conflict between the Lords and Commons.The two Houses must be reconciled andmade equally responsive to the national wants.My otitical career draws very near to a close, ut I cherish the hope that my countrymen will, in the changes that are before them, exhibit the wisdom and moderation which become an intelligent people.(Cheers.) Herbert Gladstone's Opinion.Mr.Herbert Gladstone approved the assimilation of the country and borough franchise, but doubted the expediency of the centre of attraction.The procession of making such

that of Monday night, and there have been steady increases ever since.Last night there was again an excellent house.The same piece will be on this evening and as a matinee on Saturday afternoon.Every body in Montreal who attends a theatre at all should see the Silver King before it is withdrawn from the boards.YOUNG MRS.WINTHROP.There;has notibeenta greater'success in years than the beautiful society comedy-drama, Young Mrs.Winthrop, American dramatist, Bronson Howard.It will be produced here during the week of October 22 by a great cast, specially selected by the Madison Square Theatre, and a most enjoyable perforinance may be expected.It is worthy of note to mention the factthat this company will produce the play here with fac-similes of the original scenery, together with elegant and costly accessories and properties.The standard reputation of the Madison Square Theatre companies is sufficient guarantee of an unusually excellent rendition of this famous play.Theatre Ro¢al.GRIZZLY ADAMS.There was a fair audience at the Theatre Royal last evening to witness the first produe- tion here of Mr.Goodrichs\u2019 new melo drama Grizzly Adams.We have but little to say of the play itself, save to remark that it is of the same style and \u201cmake up\u201d as Monte previously produced.It represents a life among the Sierras,and is filled with several thrilling and exciting situations, out of which Grizzl Adams, a character well depicted by E.'r Goodrich, always comes the hero.Mr.Lew Morton passed off as a faithful negro with great satisfaction and was a general favorite.The character of Lady Amaranth, Queen of a band of lawless settlers, was ably portrayed by Miss Edith Crolins, while Miss Louise Crolins, in her roll of Miriam Cohen, who, in the end, turns out to be the daughter of Lady Amaranth, was generally well received.The remaining characters were fairly interpreted.The scenic effects slightly surpass those produced in Monte, but a great lack of promptitude on the part of the scene-shifters was shown, and alittle brushing up ing this respect would not be out of place.A better supervision of the * gods\u2019 is, as was proved last night; desirable.One of them lost control of self so far asto throw a kitten, in whom life was not yet quite extinct, among those occupying the orchestra chairs: luckly however, his calculation was bad, an it struck no one.Grizzly Adams will be repeated to-night and to-morrow night and also at the matinee on Saturday.MME.GIRARD GYER.The coming attraction for next week at the Royal will be Madame Girard
