[" wb We AY © MM 8ST FW Te TT pT a .2 ; ® of itis nd nd ans cal the air se and ity \u2019 h 88 low the dur- TOI ulta- e lo | meute TISH- (From the Hrraun of November 26.) A NEW DEPARTURE.\u2018We commence to-day the publication of Tue MontrEAL HERALD, daily edition, as a ONE CrxT Parer.That is to say, we offer the public an eight page paper, of fifty-six columne\u2014in- cluding about thirty columns of reading matter\u2014for one cent por day.As the subscription price of the paper, delivered at city residences or mailed to any address, will be THREE DOLLARS er annum, the cost to the subscriber will be slightly under one cent per day.This change is due to a desire on the part of the proprietors of Tue HERALD to keep pace with the steadily | growing demand for cheap newspaper literature, and also to a determination to extend to the utmost limit possible the influence of a journal of which we may in all modesty say that its past has been neither uneventful nor un- influential.THE Hzrann has had positive epinions on all the great questions which have agitated the public mind in old Canada or the new Dominion during the past seventy-five years, and it is altogether likely that it will continue to have a voice and influence in public controversies for very many years to come.It is important, therefore, that what it has to say should be addressed to as large an audience as possible ; and with this object in view, neither time, labor, nor money will be spared in the future to make THE Hrraup worthy of its past and the leading newspaper of Canadain publishing Ter HERALD as a One Cent journal, and thus placing it within the reach of ewerybody, we are travelling in the same direction as the great New York dailies, whose price had been three and four cents per copy, but who find their profit in reducing their rate to two cents per copy, with, we should suppose, a reasonably fair prospect of ultimately dropping to one cent.The tendency of the daily press of Canada to-day is to make little or no profit out of circulation, in order that everybody may pessess himself of a copy of a newspaper at the lowest possible price.This, at all events, is the policy of Tux Hrraup, and we now propose to give the people of Canada the largest and the best One Cent newspaper that they are ever likely to receive.In issuiug the first number of the One Cent HErALD we bespeak the continued good will and active sympathy of the many friends of the journal throughout Canada.We propose that there shall be no falling off in the quality of the contents of the paper.On the contrary, it will be the ambition of the management to produce a paper more attractive than THe HERALD has ever been in the past, and with stronger claims on advertisers and the reading public than could have been hoped for under the high priced regime.All the departments characteristic = of the paper will be maintained and others added from time to time, while no means will be left untried in order to make the news, of whatsoever kind, absolutely reliable.Without indulging further in promises we will leave THE HERALD of the future to speak for itself, merely remarking that nothing will be left undone by Tae HERALD to strengthen the commercial, financial and industrial interests of the Dominion in general and of Montreal in particular.PHOSPHATE SHIPMENTS.The following is a comparative statement of the shipments of phosphate from the Port of Montreal during the season of 1883, as compiled by Messra.Anderson, McKenzie & Co.:\u2014 S88.Lake Champlain.7 SS.Lake Hurou., $8.Oxenholme.435 89.Lake Winnipeg.30 8S.Lake Manitoba.85 Bark Polisjernan 18 88.Lauderdale 1,576 Bark Echo.129 Bark Bolivia.145 Bark Deodaru .171 SS.Parisian.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.ee secs cei 500 Bark Cupid.\u2026.«+sos- LL .APPO .tween Montreal and the ports in Great London to see the \u201csupernatural\u201d little | painted and seem unfinished;

Emma Davies has deceived us.All good Spiritists had put plentiful faith in this new medium of disturbances: Young, artless, and interesting, wherever she appeared, in kitchen or parlor, bibles, coal, aud tables behaved in a most riotous way.Wherever she was present things went wrong.She came to be regarded as a portable dynamitist, and would very soon have had good offers to become an honorary member of the Fenian Sisterhood.There could be no criminality where there was no cause, Emma could « Heroiade,\u201d a picture by Benjamin Constant, now on exhibition at the Art Association Gallery, has created greater criticism than any painting seen in Montreal for a long time past.The critical remarks that have appeared in the Gazelle and the Witness must have arrested the attention of all who care for art, and now that the wordy warfare between Theophilus and his mentor has ceased, it may be as well to add a few words upon this truly fine study.With the philological argument I shall not deal, both writers have aired all the information to be obtained from ancient and modern language- primers.It is rather with the conception of the artist as it is revealed to the student of his work, the ideas intended to be conveyed to the public by the simple picture, irrespective of any grammatical wrangles that may have arisen from the name given to it.There is no doubt of the genius of the painter; the result of his work has been to command attention and receive applause from all who have been arrested by its striking beauty.With the interpretation of the Gazelle writer I cannot fully agree.The attitude, to my mind, #8 \u201cnot one of strained expectation,\u201d but one of thoughtful reverie ; the cruel eyes do not seem to be hhalf closed \u2018 to enable her to hear more quickly a coming footstep\u201d ; but rather gathered together as though some introspective reasoning were taking place behind those half-closed portals.She does not appear \u2018 beautiful as a tigress crouching in act to spring,\u201d but more like a beautiful woman, whose better thought is awakened and at war with her wicked impulse, leaving her body im complete repose Mery Xma Invite inspection of their choice new importations, personally selected in the differeut European Markets, \u2019 FINE GOLD JEWELLERY !

of Montreal.A fitting answer having been ordered to be sent to [is Excellency, the following PETITIONS were then considered :\u2014 From J.Barsalou & Co, St.Catherine street, informing the city that he had ceased to render tallow on his premises in accordance with by-law, but that he did so under protest, and would hold the city liable for damages.Referred to Health Committee.From Patrick Gallery and others for a theatre license ; Finance Committee.From J.B.Chabot for employment ; Road Committee.A statement of amounts seized in the hands of City Treasurer during the month for debts due by employees was read.THE BURNING QUESTION then came up and excited a lively discussion.This was brought on by the foliow- ing letter :\u2014 MONTREAL, Dec.8th, 1883.To the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of .Montreal : GENTLEMEN,\u2014I am instructed by the directors of the Citizens\u2019 Gas Company to intimate that their charter has been put in force by virtue of the Lieutenant-Governor\u2019s proclamation in the Quebec Oficial Gazette of the 1st inst.The Company is in a position to negotiate with the Council, and now requests an opportunity to meet your body at an early date to present statements, explain its status and to afford information bearing on the gas question generally.Yours most respectfully, JOHN B.TRESSIDER, Secretary.Ald.Grenier wanted the letter sent to the Light Committee.Ald.J.C.Wilson said it would be mere child\u2019s play to do so, and, more than that, it would be a direct insult; the letier should be laid on the \u2018able till the report of the Light Committee were taken up.Ald.Grenier moved, seconded by Ald.Fairbairn, that the letter be referred to the Light Committee, Ald.J.C.Wilson moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.Rainville, that the letter be laid on the table.Ald.Wilson contended that the matter had been duly considered by the Committee, which had passed its report by a majority of six to one.Why, then, should further time be wasted, as the Committee would not change their mind on account of this letter.He defied anyone to prove that the Light Committee had not dealt with the question th a proper way, Ald.Grenier\u2014If the Light Committee had acted properly the old company woul have redued their price to $1.00 for consumers aud $15 a year for lamps, Ald.McShane thought the Chairman of the Light Committee surely could not be in earnest; why were they so hasty and why so inconsiderate of the public inte- esls?Ald.Grenier wished to know how often Mr.Joseph had had interviews with the Chairman of the Light Committee?- Ald.J.C.Wilson\u2014Oh, many times ; not ashamed to own it.Ald.Grenier stated that, farther, Mr.Joseph had been present at nearly every meeting of the Light Committee; a great injustice to ti.e Citizens\u2019 Gas Company.Ald.Robert\u2014Mr.Joseph was only present twice.Ald, Grenier\u2014To my knowledge he was present at five or six meetings.Ald.Robert\u2014 1T°8 FALSE !! You lie, Mr.Grenier! You lie!¢ (Cries of order, chair, etc.) Ald.Grenier was not surprised at such language from the most ill-bred member of Council, who was a blct upon any committee he belonged to.Ald.Hood and Holland protested against such language being used in the Council chamber.: The vote on the amendment was then taken with the following result :\u2014 Ayes\u2014Genereux, Roy, Berger, Beausoleil, Rainville, Dubuc, Tansey, Prevost, Hagar, T.Wilson, Robert, J.¢.Wilson\u2014 12 Nays \u2014 McShane, Stroud, Stevenson, Brown, Farrell, Fuirbairn, Holland, Beauchamp, Donovan, Hood, Jeannotte, Laurent, Grenier\u201413.The amendment having been lost the main motion was allowed to pass unanimously.Several.petitions for leave to erect steam engines, etc., having been referred to the Fire Committee the following QUESTION OF PRIVILEGE was then raised by Ald.Grenier.It was in reference to Mr.Resther\u2019s claim for $4,- 519 for services as valuator in connection with the appropriation of the railway property from Hochelaga to the Quebec Gate Barracks; $2,500 had.been granted, but declined by Mr.Resther, who had taken suit for the whole amount.Ald.Grenier moved that the City Attorney, Mr.Koy, be fastructed fo\u2019 confess judgment to the amount of $2,500.Carried, The following REPORTS were then considered : \u2014 From the Light Committee, asking for leave to vary their appropriations.Left over to ext meeting.From the City Hall Commitee, recommending aa increase of salary for Mr.Briggs.Referred to Finance Committee.| The Finance and Road Committees re- ! ort for the appropriation of two strips of! and on Lagauchetiere 8 rcet was adopted.The report from the Water and Finance Cominittees, recommending a supplemen- | tary appropriation of $4,231 for unforeseen expenditure in the Water Department, was also carried.The Finance Committee reported con-! currence to the extent of $10,000 in the report of the Rood Committee, asking for $16,225 for the payment of outstanding ac- coynts.Adopted.; ORDERS OF THE DAY.The first order was for the appointment of Acting Mayor for the next three months.Ald.Beausoleil was named unanimously.On motion of Ald.Grenier, seconded by Ald.Fairbairn, the following Board of Revisors was appointed : Ald.Laurent, Donovan, Holland, Beausoleil, and Roy.The 30th order was then taken up: it was to provide for the election of Aldermen to represent the new ward of Hochelaga.Ald.Beausoleil moved, seconded by Ald.Berger, that the nomination be held on Monday, 17th inst., and the election on the following Mouday; Ald.Grenier to preside.Carried.The motion on the report of the Road Committee to erase from the homologated plan of the West Ward the lines laid down for the widening of St.Sacrament street, was carried after some discussion.Ald.Grenier then moved that the 16th order be taken up: it was for the reconsideration of resolutions changing the names of St.Mary, St.Joseph and Bonaventure streets, with a view to the restoration of these names.Ald.Jeanaotte moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.J.C.Wilson, that the names East and West be abolished and that there be a uniform system of numbers throughout.The amendment was carried by a majority of 18 to 5.The report of the Parks and Ferries Committee, recommending the renewal of contracts for amusements, etc., on St.Helen\u2019s Island, was then brought forward on the motion of Ald.'I'.Wilson, seconded by Ald.Dubuc, but the Mayor declared it out of order.Ald.T.Wilson appealed from the ruling of the chair, his appeal being sustained by a majority ot 13 to 11.Ald.Grenier then moved that the report be referred back to the Parks and Ferries Committee.The votes on this motion stood twelve to twelve, the Mayor giving his casting vote in favor of the motion.(Applause.) A motion for adjournment was put and carried\u201413 to 9.LAW INTELLIGENCE.Superior Court.SECOND DIVISION.Present: Hon.Mr.Justice RAINVILLE.The following cases were argued yesterday and taken en delibere :\u2014 Alphonsine Gagne, of the town of Salaberry, widow of Antoine Moreau, vs: Joseph Couture, of Montreal\u2014This was an action brought in forma pauperis for the recovery of damages laid at $10,000, arising out of the death of plaintiff\u2019s husband, who was in the defendant\u2019s employ, building the cotton mills at Valleyfield, and was killed by the falling of part of the carpenter\u2019s work, for which the defendant was responsible.This was met by a plea that the defendant used every precaution to prevent accident, and that if there was any negligence it was on the part of the plaintiff \u2019s husband, for whigh the defendant could not be held responsible.Messrs.Pelletier & Jodoin for plaintiff, Messrs.Duhamel & Co.for defendants.Francois Sarrasin vs.Joseph Couture.This was also in forma pauperis for damages, and was similar to the foregoing, except that the plaintiff himself was injured.; Hochelaga Mutual Fire Insurance Company vs.Robert Jellyman.This action was brought to recover the sum of $482.42 assessments on policies held by the defendant, and part of which was imposed after the cancellation of his policies, owing to the company having been put in liquidation.To this the defendant pleaded that for eighteen months previous to the plaintiff being put into liquidation he had ceased to be a member, having paid all assessments, and could not now be called upon to pay the alleged assessinents.Messrs.Trenholme & Taylor for plaintiff, Messrs.Archibald & McCormick for defendant.Job A.Cushing vs.David Daweon\u2014This action was brought to restrain the defend- d | ant from using public scales on the wharf, the exclusive use of such having been secured from the Harbor Commissioners by the plaintiff, who seeks to recover $500 damages for the interference by the de- fenaant.with plaintif®s acquired rights.This was met by the plea that the Harbor Commissioners had no right to grant such exclusive privilege; that defendant was a duly licensed weigher and had a right to weigh ; and that any weighing done by him was done as an employe of private parties on property leased to them by the Harbor Commissioners.Messrs.Robertson & Co.for plaintiffs, Messrs.Trenholme & Taylor for defendant.THIRD DIVISION.Present: The Hon.Mr.Justice MATHIEU.The following judgments were rendered.Blight Peacock, of Sunderland, England vs.S.W.Beard\u2014Judgimnent ex-parte for $3,949.44, with interest and costs.This action arose out of the charter of the 88.Birch.Messrs.Church & Co.for plaintiff.Ex-parte on the application of the Domiuion Bridge Company for ratification of title deed of a parcel of land forming part of lot No.772 on the official plan of Lachine\u2014Mr.Benjamin for petitioner.The Federal Bank of Canada vs.E.E.Beaudry\u2014Judgment for $171.54, with interest and costs.Messrs.McMaster & Co., for plaintiff.Present\u2014Hon.Mr.Justice PAPINEAU.EX-PARTE JUDGMENTS.William Weir, of Montreal, banker, vs.G.H.Dumesnil, of the same place, gentle- man\u2014Judgment on a promissory note for $300, interest and costs.Messrs.Walker & Bowie for plaintiff.Rovert M.Fitzsimmous, of Montreal, merchant, doing business under the style of Fitzsimmons & Co., vs.Paul Labelle, of, the same place, doing business under the style of Paul Labelle & Co.\u2014Judgment on promissory note for $144.86 with iu- terest and costs.Messrs.Cressy & Cressy for plaintiff.The Hon.Sir A.T.Galt and the Hon.F.W.Torrance, es qualite vs.E.Roy\u2014 Judgment for $485.30, balance on deed of sale, with interest and costs.Mr.J.L.Morris for plaintitls.James E.Mullin, of Montreal, merchant, doing business under the style of J.H.Mullin & Co.vs.Pierre Franco, of St.Andrews.Judgment for $230.38 on promissory notes, & 1.with interest and costs.| Messrs.Lacoste & Co.for plaintiff.George E.Desbarats and George H.H.Drechsel, doing business under the style of G.E.Desbarats & Co.vs.The Corriveau Silkk Mills Company (limited.)

it was wonderful what an amount of work had been done with the small means at their disposal.He then proceeded to read the annual report of which we give a synopsis.The managers had pleasure in presenting to their friends and the public their second annual report.In doing go the ladies hoped their efforts in bringing out so many young women from Great Britain and lreland, and finding them situations would meet with approbation.Since the last annual meeting 236 persons had been admitted into the home for periuds varying from one day to a fortnight.Of these 138 were English, 63 Irish, 16 Scotch, 13 German, and the remainder of different nationalities a few of them were of a superior class, and were provided with suitable situations, Great difficulty had been experienced in finding places for women with children from whom they did not like to part.As there was no existing home for immigrant boys, no less than eleven from four to six years of age had been sheltered till homes were found for them.Immigrants were allowed Lo remain twenty-four hours in the home free of expense ; after that time a small charge was made for board.Many of the girls were hired at once, thereby saving all expeuse.A great number of those who came te the home were sent out hy the Rev.Mr.Bridger and the Rev, Mr.Wynne, of Killarney, reland, The latter gentleman came to Canada to see for hitdself how those whom he had sent out were getting on in their new homes, and expressed himself as highly gratified with the manner in which ths work of the home was carried on and the kindness shown the girls, He said he would be glad to make known that so excellent an organization existed to protect immigrants.The ladies had held a gathering in January last of all the girls that had been in the home during the season, and were glad to hear of their welfare.The same competent agent had been reengaged to meet the immigrants on their arrival, The managers tendered their thanks to Dr.Richard Macdonell for his continued kindness in visiting the inmates of the howe, and also to the matron for so carefully attending to the girls and the interests of the heme.The home had been honored by a visit from H.R.H.Princess Louise on her last visit to the city ; she had spoken in warm terms of admiration of the work.Miss Evans then read the financial gtatement, which showed that the amount of income from all sources kad been $3, 181.42.In this was included a grantof $1,000 from the Dominion Government and $500 from the Provincial Government.The subscription amounted to $46, dona- tons $230.85 and returned loans $105 32.The expenditure amounted to $1,231.52, made up as follows :\u2014Provisions, $785.85 ; furnishing, $169.60 ; salaries, $343; postage, advertising, printing, etc.$53.71 ; fuel, $169.40 ; rent, $345 ; loans ahd passage money advanced, $307; water, $15.20 ; insurance, $5 ; agent, $15; leaving a balance on hand of $949.40.Miss Motiatt then moved and Mrs.Cramp seconded the following resolution : \u201cThat the reports read be adopted and printed, under the direction of the committee.\u201d Rev.R.Lindeay, speaking in eupport of the resolution, said be thought it was foreign to the objects of the institution to admit boys, and he would also like some explanation about the loans for passage money, aud whether they were re- aid.He had reeeived a letter from Revr.Bridger, saying he was coming out with a shipload of girls in the spring.The Rev.D.V.Lucas had felt à large amount of sympathy for the organization from its beginning.He thought it would be a good idea for the ladies to put themselves in communication with the stewardesses of the steamers, as they might advise them of girls that wanted looking after.When he visited the old land, he found many worthy girls who would like to come out, but from the low rate of wages there could not raise the money; the loans of the society might be applied in such cases.He had received letters from Ireland which mentioned mai y who would come out if they had the money.He could see no difficulty in sending money, if the society found situations for them, and then - gs took precautions to get the money Professional Cardsback graduaily, He had found in JOHN FAIR, the old.country what was perhaps against the society and that was that'first-class girls received as good wages there as they got here (hear, hear,) but on account of the very large proportion who received low wages there were many who would be glad to take the opportunity of coming out if it-were offered to them.He thought the society was moving in the right direction and had done a large amount of good work.With regard to the loans, he thought the society had a right to demand the loans back and als.make the employers responsible for them.The Rev.Mr.Crawford thought the question of loans wanted ventilating as the Australian Government gave free passages while the Government liere only advanced £1 and that with the reduced rate brought the passage down to £2.10.The Rev.J.H.Dixon said it was not the better class of servants they wanted to reach, for he found on inquiry here that very few people would pay such high wages as were paid in the old country.Tae Rev.J.Edgar Hill only wondered that the ladies had been able to recover so much of the loans; it would have been po discrediv if they had not got anything back.There was some mistake about the wages in the old country.High wages right be had perhaps in London, but in Scotland servants only received abot two- thirds of what they got here.They did not find many Scotch people who liked to receive loans; they liked to keep up their independence and would apurn the idea of help, but they would also be glad of coun cil and advice.The resolution was then put and earried.Lady Galt then moved, seconded by Miss Badgeley, that the following members of the -ociety be the office-bearers, board of management, general committee and advisory board for the coming year :\u2014 Patrons\u2014H.R H.Princess Louise; the | Countess of Dutferin; ady Francis Balfour.President, Miss Moffatt; 1st Vice-Presi- dent, Mrs.M.H.Gaul#; 2nd Vice-Presi- dent, Mra.Elmenhorst ; 3rd Vice-President, Mra.Blaikleck.s Hon.-Secretary, Mrs.W.W.Mussen.Secretary-Treasurer, Miss J.S.Evans.Boëtd of Management \u2014 Mrs.Cramp, Mrs.Howe, Mrs.Chaffee, Mra.J.Edgar | Hill, Mrs.Botterell, Mrs.Houghton, Mrs.G.W.Stephens, Mrs.Brakenridge, Mrs.Gillespie, Mrs.Russell Stephenson, Mrs.Macdonald and Mrs.J.S.Taylor.General Committee\u2014 Lady Galt, Mrs.Magor,Mrs.J.J.C.Abbott, Mrs.Hingston, Miss Macdonald, Mrs.Dyer, Mrs, Holland, Mrs.John Hamilton, Mrs.Jack, Mrs.Stephens and Mrs.J.K.Hutchinson, Advisory Board\u2014Messrs.M.H.Gault, M.P.;

it would be intolerable to deal out the water by meter in case of a conflagration.This, obviously, is a very different matter from the gas supply for lighting or heating purposes, which is a marketable commodity, and may be furnished by a municipality or by a vompany of proprietors.The former, it it saw fit to do su, could also enter into the supply of, say, cheap \u2018bread, or cheap clothing, or cheap houses.We all need these things, and they are quite as essential as cheap light; indeed, the things signitied, whether cheap or dear, cannot be dispensed with, whereas no one is obliged to use gas; he may use candles or coal oil, as, indeed, the larger part of the citizens do at present.Much has been raid and written upon the poor quality of the gas supplied by the Moutreal Gas Company.ls it generally known that there is a Government inspee- tor, that the quality of the gas is scientifically tested daily, and when it falls below the legal standard the Company is notified ot the fact ?But, says suine one, \u201cmy gas bills arc as large as they were before the reduction of the price.\u201d That, I admit, is quite possible, and if the price were reduc- el to the lowest figure named, complaints on this score would not le wanting.Two causes may account for this, viz., increased consumption or leakage from defective gas-fittings, Let those who complain of extravagant bills examine the index dials of their meters daily, and note consumption, and if they find the quantity registered in excess of probable use, get their meters tested by the Government Inspector :\u2014If they will not take the trouble to do this, they should cease to complain of their inconveniently large bills., One word mere since I have pen in Land, I think that it would be a very greut evil to allow another company to dig up our streets.They are now trenched for water, sewers and gas, and surely they are in sufficiently bad condition, and need not be made worse, as they would infallibly be, if Alderman Holland\u2019s motion should prevail, to allow the Citizens, or ray the Star light gas company, to dig trenches in every street, and lay service pipes to every house.Henry LYMAN.Confucius Bible, at \u201cTemple Emanu-El Fair this evening.\u2014\u2014\u2014 LoNEJACK, Mo., Sept., 11, 1879 I have been using Hop Bitters, I have received great benefit from them tor liver complaints and malarial fever.They are superior to all other medicines.P.M.BARNES, THE ATLANTIC & NORTH-WEST RAILWAY COMPANY will apply to the Dominion Parliament, at its next Session, for the passage of an Aet confirming the sale of a portion of its line of Railway to the Ontario & Quebec Railway Company, and granting to the Company all powers and authority requisite to give effect to the conditions of the said sale.By order of the Board.HARRY CUTT, Secretary.Montreal, 29th Nov., 1883.2m 287 ACCOUNTANT.Commissioner for: taking Affidavits o Ontario.115 ST.FRANCOISEXAVIER STREET.March 23 70 THOMAS DARLING, Accountant and Auoiton.242 ST.JAMES STREET, MONTREAL.May 20 120 H.SANDFIELD MACDONALD, (Late Maclennan & Macdonald.)

Patterson\u2019s New York Opera Company we think it would be difficult to improve upon.We have nothing hut the highest praise to bestow upon this talented company, and we think it hus been a long time since a better pleased audience has left the Academy of Music.A lot of the opera has already been published n our columns.'Thecostumes are extremely handsome, picturesque and modest.The cast is exceptionally good, amd the chorus, for its size, one of the best we ever listened to, The finale of the second act is one of the grandest ever heurd in comic opera; it was enthusiastically encored.Miss Fanny Redding, who took the character of the King, acted with much grace and looked the part to perfection ; her solo in the third act was very finely rendered.Louise Manfred, who played the part of the Queen, is not unfamiliar to a Montreal audience, she having sang here in Gilbert and Sullivan\u2019s opera about a season ago, and as the Queen, last night, she added another success.she looked as pretty as ever, if not more s0, and acted and sang in a most charming manner, and was a great favorite with the audience.Miss Searle 1s a new comer, but made à most favorable impression, bein, both an accomplished actress and singer, an as Dona Irene it would be difficult to improve upon, she also established herselfasa favorite.Miss Cooper, as the Marchloness, did not have very much to do, but what she had, did it in an exceptionable manner.Mr.C.M.Pyke, an old Montreal favorite, was in his element as Don Cervantes and acted and sang his part capitally, his solo in the seeond act being one of the gems of the evening.Mr.Pyke is fast advancing to the head of his profession where he right- fulty belongs.Mr.Greensfelder, as the Prime Minister, has a very difficult part to perform, which he did in a very satisfactory manner, and, both as a comedian and singer, is entitled to ail the high praise that has been bestowed upon him.Gustave Adolphi, as Sancho, was extremely amusing, and kept the audience in continual laughter while upon the stage.Asa comedian we have had few better.His broad German accent added much to make his character the success it was, His song to the moon deserves especial praise.The Ministers of War, Messrs.Hatter, Ken- worthy and Hall, were very good, indeed.| Mr.Hatter's make up and queer voice were exceedingly laughable.The choruses were magnificently rendered and deservedly encored.\u2018Che orchestra, under the leadership of Herr Hans Kreissig, was excellent.A PARISIAN ROMANUE.Next week we will have at the Academy Mr.Richard Mansfield as the Baron Chevrial in a Parisian Romance.The Chicago Inter- Ocean says:\u2014 The Baron Chevrial of Mr.Mansfield is an extraordinarily potent and analytical treatment of character, being as ncarly perfeet in its sustained portraiture as it seems possible to make acting that exceeds natural limitations.The creation is due to the faculty of the actor, and 1s as much his own property as ir it were a tangible possession, acquired by catching success from the failure of others.Grantiug the premise of the idea the conclusion in demonstration was faultless.If we may imagine such à character we must ad- mitthe aceurucy of Mr.Mansfield\u2019s impersonation.But whetheror not we may be willing to accept the proposition ot personality, we cannot escape the fact that the actor mani:ested a genius that enforces the praise one might desire to withhold from the reflection of a characterization 80 odious.There is no detail slighted, no effects neglected.There is a digposition to recoil from the intense horror of the representa~ tion which is overcome by the irresistible longing to see the conclusion of such a study, and reviewing it out of the immediale presence, one finds that an indelible impression has been made on the mind, and the work so secures the reward of its greatness.Never have we looked upon a more ghastly spectacle in theatric display than is presented by Mr.Manstleld at the midnight banquet when the Baron Chevrial\u2014standing with wine glass uplifted, his mouth drawn aside, his eyes sct, the facial expression hideous\u2014is struck with the final nervous shock, racked by the deadly tremor, the mind struggling to express the ideas thatzcome incoherently and maudlin from the palsicd tongue, and the shattered system gives way.CRIME REPORIS.Police Court.Present\u2014A.C.DuGas, P.M.MONDAY, 10th December.Matthew Crow and Thomas Hannapy, ims plicated in the G.T.R.brass robberies, were fined $2 or 10 days each.Thomas Romain was acquitted.The remaining cases were continued to Wednesday.Joseph Brunette, rag picker, was arrested charged with stealing 14 dynamite cartridges and 25 pieces of fuse.On Friday last Mr.O'Neil, foreman for Martin Benoit, contractor, missed these articles from a building in the upper part of Roy street.He thereupon notified the police of the fact.A search was then made, and the missing articles were found in Mrs.Cabana\u2019s, of Sb.Jean Bapliste.She said that she purchased them from Joseph Brunette, who was thereupon arrested.He says he thought they were pieces of candles and cigar stumps.As the police officers were unwilling to take charge of these dangerous articles they were returned to the owner.In the meantime the prisoner was remanded.William Brown was arrested on a charge of stealing a fur cap belonging to Mr.Henderson, foreman for Messrs.Ives & Co., to whose premises he had gone and made a selection for the coming winter.lie denied this charge and was remanded.The adjourned case of Joseph Rielle vs.Joseph Gravel for evading payment of toll, was again continued to the 12th instant.John Lee on suspicion of larcency was remanded to the 17th instant.Recorder\u2019s Court.MONDAY, 10th December.John Finnegan who boards with his brother- in-law got drunk on Saturday and made a disturbance.His brother-in-law attempted to quiet him and received a smart blow ia the face, Finnegan's sister then tried her powers with her brother and was similarly treated.For the first assault John Was soothed with the calming expression, $5 or 15 days, The sentence on the second

Often we hear of worthless stocks of glowing mines, lands, ete., aad men who have lost their all in such.But the grain and provision speculation is something safe and legitimate that people can see and know the changes in the price of each product and the state of the markets every five minutes during the day, for it is well known that the weather, supply and demand governs the price.We would advise, therefore, anyone wishing to invest or seeking information to call at our office, No.13 Hospital street, Montreal, room No, 1, where any required information will be most cheerfully given, and the latest guotations seen of the London, Liverpool ew York, Chicago and St.Louls markets, by direct telegraph communication to us.We respectfully Despeak your favor, ADDEN & BEAULIEU, No.13 Hospital'street.(Cut this out.)

Wounded.Hona Kone, Dec.10.\u2014Fifty Annamites and Chinese were killed and over a hundred wounded during the attack on Haiphong.Protection to Foreigners.The Viceroy at Canton has assured the Americans of his desire and power to protect them.The anxicty of foreigners there is allayed for the present.An American Consul\u2019s Opinion.NEw York, Dec.10.\u2014Dr.Platt, American Consular agent at Chefoo, just arrived, says if war is declared between France and China the result to foreigners living in China will be fearful to contemplate.The Chinese are terribly fanatical.and the slightest excitement may precipitate horrible atrocities.Nearly every foreigner in China sympathizes with the Mongolians who have been forced into their position by France.Dr.Platt says Admiral Shufeldt\u2019s letter reflecting on the Empress caused a tremendous sensation at Pekin.Li-tung Chang was furious.He seat for Miaister Young and remonstrated about it in a very stormy manner.Mr.Young is a great favorite with the Chinese Government and has more influence with Li than any other foreign representative.Other Ministers are wild with jealousy at the preference Li is beginning to show for America.The Minister, however, should be supported by proper naval representation.The people ridicule our vessels and imagine we do not send better because we are unable to.If there is war with France, civil war in France is almost certain.Dr.Platt says although much has been written about Corea that country isa humbug, An Admiral\u2019s Opinion.PHILADELPHIA, Dec.10.\u2014-Rear-Ad- miral Crosby, recently in command of the Asiatic squadron, says he is positive there will be no general war between China and France.China is no match for France and must inevitably give in.\u2018The Latest Orders.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014The Government has telegraphed to the commander in Tonquin to continue preparations for the campaign against Sontay and Bac-Ninh, but await fresh orders before taking decisive action.An Unconfirmed Story.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014A letter from Pekin states that at a meeting of the Imperial family and the Ministry, opinion was unanimous against war with France.The Debate in the French Chamber.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014In the Chamber of Deputies to-day the debate upon the Tonquin credits bill was resumed.M.Pelletan reproached the Government for its colonial policy and compared the evants in Tonquin with what has been done in Tunis.M.Ferry declared that far from leading the country into the four quarters of the world in quest of colonial adventures, the colonial policy of the Government was entirely conservative.In going to Tunis the Government had in view solely the security of Algeria, and it went to Tonquin for the sake of the security of French Cochin China.M.Ferry said the Republican Government of Frauce was not responsible for the present expedition to Tonquin, Admiral Montaignae, Minister of Marine, as far back as 1875 pointed out the necessity for establishing A French Protectorate Over Annam.The Government, far from entertaining any illusions regarding the attitude of China, believes that China would notgo so far as to resort to armed intervention, A rupture between France and China had not occurred, but the Cabinet had never ceased to act as if a rupture were possible.The Government had treated China as a great Power, which course he did not regret.The Government had exhausted every combination and system of conciliation.\u2018The treaty was withheld in consideration of a possibility of conciliation.France might have broken off the negotiations when China proposed that France should evacuate Tonquin, but France desired to continue them.It was impossible to accept the proposition of China's occupying the left bank of the Red River and the establishment of a neutral zone.M.Ferry referred to the action of China in declaring that if the French forces went in the direction of Sontay and Bac-Ninh they might encounter Chinese troops, He said it was for the Chamber to say whether it would leave Sontay to China, but that would be a singular way of Avenging the Death of Captain Riviere, It was impossible to order the French troops to suspend their march on Sontay and Bac-Ninh in the absence of a serious basis upon which an arrangement of the difficuliy might be effected.\u201cIf the Chamber,\u201d he said, *believes there is another course to ursue to maintain the honor of ranee and the safety of Cochin China, let it say so distinctly.Diplomacy not having ended, military action will remain within the limits indicated.It is necessary for France to be Stroug in the Deltn and to hold strategical points, in order to negotiate advantageously.The present force in Tonquin will not be increased until Admiral Courbet requests it.\u201d M.Ferry asked the House to give a vote of confidence in the interests of the army and of the negotiations carried on by the Goyernment.M.Andrieux declared that dissimulation existed in regard to the affair and the acts of the Government.M.Ribot denied that voting the credits would imply approval of the entire conduct of the Government.It was now impossible to advise the abandonment of Tonquin, and a new Cabinet would disastrously affect the army.No other Cabinet was ready to take the reins of Government.M.Clemenceau declared that nobody dreamed of abandoning the soldiers of France in the presence of an enemy, but the negotiations could not be confided to the present Cabinet.A vote of confidence would mean a declaration of war with China.A Government Victory.The credits Lill! was then adopted by 381 to 146.M.Ferry accepted the order of the day proposed by Birt \u201cthat the Chamber was convinced that Government would display unceasing energy in defending the influence and honor of France in Tonquin, and passes to the order of the day.\u201d This was carried by 315 to 206.Les THE SOUDAN REBELLION.His Majesty of Abyssinia on the Watch.Cairo,

Barbavilla, was begun to-day.A true bill for the murder of Mrs.Smythe had been returned against Elliott, and his arraignment for a minor offence created surprise.The counsel for the Crown said he would prove that men were waiting on all roads leading from the Church to the residence of Mr.Smythe to kill him.McKeown testified that before the murder of Mrs.Smythe the prisoners met na barn and

A NEW DEPARTURE.\u2018We commence to-day the publication of Tue MontrEAL HERALD, daily edition, as a ONE CrxT Parer.That is to say, we offer the public an eight page paper, of fifty-six columne\u2014in- cluding about thirty columns of reading matter\u2014for one cent por day.As the subscription price of the paper, delivered at city residences or mailed to any address, will be THREE DOLLARS er annum, the cost to the subscriber will be slightly under one cent per day.This change is due to a desire on the part of the proprietors of Tue HERALD to keep pace with the steadily | growing demand for cheap newspaper literature, and also to a determination to extend to the utmost limit possible the influence of a journal of which we may in all modesty say that its past has been neither uneventful nor un- influential.THE Hzrann has had positive epinions on all the great questions which have agitated the public mind in old Canada or the new Dominion during the past seventy-five years, and it is altogether likely that it will continue to have a voice and influence in public controversies for very many years to come.It is important, therefore, that what it has to say should be addressed to as large an audience as possible ; and with this object in view, neither time, labor, nor money will be spared in the future to make THE Hrraup worthy of its past and the leading newspaper of Canadain publishing Ter HERALD as a One Cent journal, and thus placing it within the reach of ewerybody, we are travelling in the same direction as the great New York dailies, whose price had been three and four cents per copy, but who find their profit in reducing their rate to two cents per copy, with, we should suppose, a reasonably fair prospect of ultimately dropping to one cent.The tendency of the daily press of Canada to-day is to make little or no profit out of circulation, in order that everybody may pessess himself of a copy of a newspaper at the lowest possible price.This, at all events, is the policy of Tux Hrraup, and we now propose to give the people of Canada the largest and the best One Cent newspaper that they are ever likely to receive.In issuiug the first number of the One Cent HErALD we bespeak the continued good will and active sympathy of the many friends of the journal throughout Canada.We propose that there shall be no falling off in the quality of the contents of the paper.On the contrary, it will be the ambition of the management to produce a paper more attractive than THe HERALD has ever been in the past, and with stronger claims on advertisers and the reading public than could have been hoped for under the high priced regime.All the departments characteristic = of the paper will be maintained and others added from time to time, while no means will be left untried in order to make the news, of whatsoever kind, absolutely reliable.Without indulging further in promises we will leave THE HERALD of the future to speak for itself, merely remarking that nothing will be left undone by Tae HERALD to strengthen the commercial, financial and industrial interests of the Dominion in general and of Montreal in particular.PHOSPHATE SHIPMENTS.The following is a comparative statement of the shipments of phosphate from the Port of Montreal during the season of 1883, as compiled by Messra.Anderson, McKenzie & Co.:\u2014 S88.Lake Champlain.7 SS.Lake Hurou., $8.Oxenholme.435 89.Lake Winnipeg.30 8S.Lake Manitoba.85 Bark Polisjernan 18 88.Lauderdale 1,576 Bark Echo.129 Bark Bolivia.145 Bark Deodaru .171 SS.Parisian.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.ee secs cei 500 Bark Cupid.\u2026.«+sos- LL .APPO .tween Montreal and the ports in Great London to see the \u201csupernatural\u201d little | painted and seem unfinished;

Emma Davies has deceived us.All good Spiritists had put plentiful faith in this new medium of disturbances: Young, artless, and interesting, wherever she appeared, in kitchen or parlor, bibles, coal, aud tables behaved in a most riotous way.Wherever she was present things went wrong.She came to be regarded as a portable dynamitist, and would very soon have had good offers to become an honorary member of the Fenian Sisterhood.There could be no criminality where there was no cause, Emma could « Heroiade,\u201d a picture by Benjamin Constant, now on exhibition at the Art Association Gallery, has created greater criticism than any painting seen in Montreal for a long time past.The critical remarks that have appeared in the Gazelle and the Witness must have arrested the attention of all who care for art, and now that the wordy warfare between Theophilus and his mentor has ceased, it may be as well to add a few words upon this truly fine study.With the philological argument I shall not deal, both writers have aired all the information to be obtained from ancient and modern language- primers.It is rather with the conception of the artist as it is revealed to the student of his work, the ideas intended to be conveyed to the public by the simple picture, irrespective of any grammatical wrangles that may have arisen from the name given to it.There is no doubt of the genius of the painter; the result of his work has been to command attention and receive applause from all who have been arrested by its striking beauty.With the interpretation of the Gazelle writer I cannot fully agree.The attitude, to my mind, #8 \u201cnot one of strained expectation,\u201d but one of thoughtful reverie ; the cruel eyes do not seem to be hhalf closed \u2018 to enable her to hear more quickly a coming footstep\u201d ; but rather gathered together as though some introspective reasoning were taking place behind those half-closed portals.She does not appear \u2018 beautiful as a tigress crouching in act to spring,\u201d but more like a beautiful woman, whose better thought is awakened and at war with her wicked impulse, leaving her body im complete repose Mery Xma Invite inspection of their choice new importations, personally selected in the differeut European Markets, \u2019 FINE GOLD JEWELLERY !

THE GALLERY.The enormous ground floor of this shop, although more than an acre in extent, is not sufficient for all the machinery which it is desirable to have at that point, so that a gallery has been built for the smaller machines.This extends the whole length of the building and is consequently 405 feet long, witha width of about 20 feet.Midway of its length it has a power lift.One end is devoted to brass work, such as the making of injectors.The centre portion is filled with iron working machinery and is a fitting shop for engine motions.The other end is a tool shop.One great advantage of this gallery is its admirable light, it having a range of windows along the side.THE SMITHY.This shop, which is 200 feet long and 62 feet wide, is on the opposite side of the yard from the erecting shop, 105 feet apart from it, but connected with it by a small track for moving castings and machinery.Connections of this track, which is provided with small turs tables, run through the erecting shop and also through the smithy to the bar iron stone and the engine house.The smithy is a splendid shop, but as it is provided with five double act- Amusements, ACADEMY OF MUSIC.HENRY THOMAS, Lessee and Manager For One Week and Saturday Matinee, Commencing MONDAY, DECEMBER 10.Patterson\u2019s New York Opera Jompany in a superb production of Johann Strauss\u2019 beautiful Opera, QUEEN'S LACE HANDKERCHIEF!

the next is 1,500 lbs.; there is one of 1,200 lbs., and the remaining two are of 800 lbs.Either of them can hit hard enough to knock out even John L.Sullivan in one round.The 1,200 Ibs.hammer is making a rocker arm for a locomotive, and it takes less than half à minute to drive the half melted metal into the die and complete the job.Here the work of making locomotive frames is going on, and twenty-four forge fires are employed in addition to four smalj forges for spring making.All the springs for the locomotives and care are made in \u2019 this shop.One of the sights of this shop is a small forging machine making about 700 strokes a minute, forging the iron and cutting it off with unerring accuracy and speed.The smithy has a furnace house 60x15 feet attached for heating blooms for the steam hammers.THE ROUND HOUSE.The round house or engine house is only about fifty feet from the smithy, and is connected with it by a small track, lt is 180 feet by 91, exclusive of a projection for the accommodation of a turn-table fifty feet in diameter.This shop has accommodation for nine engines, and contains the bolt making, tapping, and other machines, as well as the nuta and bolts.It is, in fact, a repair shop for locomotives, and some of the new tenders are being painted here at present.The turn-table connects with a track which leads to the main track of the railway and the Round House is also connected by a track with the erecting shop, so that a locomotive can be run trom the turn table through the Round Heuse inte the erecting shop.THE ENGINE AND TENDER PAINT SHOP.This shop, which is 128 feet square, is «close to the engine house.Attached to it is a dry kiln 52x15, a brass foundry 50x 30 and a boiler house 55x36.These boilers supply steam for both engines, the larger one being 80 and the smaller 250 feet distant.In the centre of the paint shop is a gallery for light work.Between this shop and the vent is a huge traverser 210 feet long by 60 feet wide for the accommo dation of the shops on both sides of it, 80 that a car or locomotive can be placed immediately in any position required.The building on the further side of this traversing pit, which has a frontage of 270 feet on St.Catherine street and a width of 82 feet 01 Colborne Avenue, is divided into two shops.That at the corner, which is 99x82 feet, is THE PATTERN AND WOOD WORKING SHOP: Here are being made and stored the patterns for the new machinery of the Canadian Pacific Railway.Here also general wood work is being done.Seven draughtsmen are employed by Mr.Brown in making drawings for patterns and other work of a similar character in connection with the railway.THE TENDER SHOP.This shop, which is under the same roof as the pattern shop, is 172 x 82 feet.Here are being made cabs and pilots for the tenders.Here too, and in the workshop overhead, is being made all the woodwork of the cabins of the three fine steel steamers which are to run between Algoma and Thunder Bay.Stacks of this woodwork are lying about everywhere.In the shop is stowed also one of the beautiful drawing room Cars owned by the company.and h will run between this city and whic Ottawa.These cars are models of elegant beauty.The other buildings only require brief mention.There is 8 coppersmiths and tinsmiths shop, 50 x 40 feet, in which all work of that character 18 done.The offices and stores of the mechanical Le tment are ina building 80 x eet, Td are quite convenient and comfortable.The bar iron store and plate iron store are detached buildings, 60 x 40 and 45 x respectively.These works employ at present 385 men, and as the mileage and traffic of the road increase, will employ many more, 80 that eventually they will be among the mos extensive in America.They form, there: fore, a most important and growing addi tion to the industries of Montrealare 80 conveniently arranged, so well provided with labor-saving appliances, an i d machinery that they can i y ore work with fewer men an any of oe onder establishments, and the super t is go thoroughly m eat the greatest results may always be counted on for the means employed.They | P Consignees Wanted.CONSIGNEES WANTED for 5 Barrels Flour Sulphur marked 8.& M., and con- H signed to Stuart & Macpherson ;

of Montreal.A fitting answer having been ordered to be sent to [is Excellency, the following PETITIONS were then considered :\u2014 From J.Barsalou & Co, St.Catherine street, informing the city that he had ceased to render tallow on his premises in accordance with by-law, but that he did so under protest, and would hold the city liable for damages.Referred to Health Committee.From Patrick Gallery and others for a theatre license ; Finance Committee.From J.B.Chabot for employment ; Road Committee.A statement of amounts seized in the hands of City Treasurer during the month for debts due by employees was read.THE BURNING QUESTION then came up and excited a lively discussion.This was brought on by the foliow- ing letter :\u2014 MONTREAL, Dec.8th, 1883.To the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of .Montreal : GENTLEMEN,\u2014I am instructed by the directors of the Citizens\u2019 Gas Company to intimate that their charter has been put in force by virtue of the Lieutenant-Governor\u2019s proclamation in the Quebec Oficial Gazette of the 1st inst.The Company is in a position to negotiate with the Council, and now requests an opportunity to meet your body at an early date to present statements, explain its status and to afford information bearing on the gas question generally.Yours most respectfully, JOHN B.TRESSIDER, Secretary.Ald.Grenier wanted the letter sent to the Light Committee.Ald.J.C.Wilson said it would be mere child\u2019s play to do so, and, more than that, it would be a direct insult; the letier should be laid on the \u2018able till the report of the Light Committee were taken up.Ald.Grenier moved, seconded by Ald.Fairbairn, that the letter be referred to the Light Committee, Ald.J.C.Wilson moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.Rainville, that the letter be laid on the table.Ald.Wilson contended that the matter had been duly considered by the Committee, which had passed its report by a majority of six to one.Why, then, should further time be wasted, as the Committee would not change their mind on account of this letter.He defied anyone to prove that the Light Committee had not dealt with the question th a proper way, Ald.Grenier\u2014If the Light Committee had acted properly the old company woul have redued their price to $1.00 for consumers aud $15 a year for lamps, Ald.McShane thought the Chairman of the Light Committee surely could not be in earnest; why were they so hasty and why so inconsiderate of the public inte- esls?Ald.Grenier wished to know how often Mr.Joseph had had interviews with the Chairman of the Light Committee?- Ald.J.C.Wilson\u2014Oh, many times ; not ashamed to own it.Ald.Grenier stated that, farther, Mr.Joseph had been present at nearly every meeting of the Light Committee; a great injustice to ti.e Citizens\u2019 Gas Company.Ald.Robert\u2014Mr.Joseph was only present twice.Ald, Grenier\u2014To my knowledge he was present at five or six meetings.Ald.Robert\u2014 1T°8 FALSE !! You lie, Mr.Grenier! You lie!¢ (Cries of order, chair, etc.) Ald.Grenier was not surprised at such language from the most ill-bred member of Council, who was a blct upon any committee he belonged to.Ald.Hood and Holland protested against such language being used in the Council chamber.: The vote on the amendment was then taken with the following result :\u2014 Ayes\u2014Genereux, Roy, Berger, Beausoleil, Rainville, Dubuc, Tansey, Prevost, Hagar, T.Wilson, Robert, J.¢.Wilson\u2014 12 Nays \u2014 McShane, Stroud, Stevenson, Brown, Farrell, Fuirbairn, Holland, Beauchamp, Donovan, Hood, Jeannotte, Laurent, Grenier\u201413.The amendment having been lost the main motion was allowed to pass unanimously.Several.petitions for leave to erect steam engines, etc., having been referred to the Fire Committee the following QUESTION OF PRIVILEGE was then raised by Ald.Grenier.It was in reference to Mr.Resther\u2019s claim for $4,- 519 for services as valuator in connection with the appropriation of the railway property from Hochelaga to the Quebec Gate Barracks; $2,500 had.been granted, but declined by Mr.Resther, who had taken suit for the whole amount.Ald.Grenier moved that the City Attorney, Mr.Koy, be fastructed fo\u2019 confess judgment to the amount of $2,500.Carried, The following REPORTS were then considered : \u2014 From the Light Committee, asking for leave to vary their appropriations.Left over to ext meeting.From the City Hall Commitee, recommending aa increase of salary for Mr.Briggs.Referred to Finance Committee.| The Finance and Road Committees re- ! ort for the appropriation of two strips of! and on Lagauchetiere 8 rcet was adopted.The report from the Water and Finance Cominittees, recommending a supplemen- | tary appropriation of $4,231 for unforeseen expenditure in the Water Department, was also carried.The Finance Committee reported con-! currence to the extent of $10,000 in the report of the Rood Committee, asking for $16,225 for the payment of outstanding ac- coynts.Adopted.; ORDERS OF THE DAY.The first order was for the appointment of Acting Mayor for the next three months.Ald.Beausoleil was named unanimously.On motion of Ald.Grenier, seconded by Ald.Fairbairn, the following Board of Revisors was appointed : Ald.Laurent, Donovan, Holland, Beausoleil, and Roy.The 30th order was then taken up: it was to provide for the election of Aldermen to represent the new ward of Hochelaga.Ald.Beausoleil moved, seconded by Ald.Berger, that the nomination be held on Monday, 17th inst., and the election on the following Mouday; Ald.Grenier to preside.Carried.The motion on the report of the Road Committee to erase from the homologated plan of the West Ward the lines laid down for the widening of St.Sacrament street, was carried after some discussion.Ald.Grenier then moved that the 16th order be taken up: it was for the reconsideration of resolutions changing the names of St.Mary, St.Joseph and Bonaventure streets, with a view to the restoration of these names.Ald.Jeanaotte moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.J.C.Wilson, that the names East and West be abolished and that there be a uniform system of numbers throughout.The amendment was carried by a majority of 18 to 5.The report of the Parks and Ferries Committee, recommending the renewal of contracts for amusements, etc., on St.Helen\u2019s Island, was then brought forward on the motion of Ald.'I'.Wilson, seconded by Ald.Dubuc, but the Mayor declared it out of order.Ald.T.Wilson appealed from the ruling of the chair, his appeal being sustained by a majority ot 13 to 11.Ald.Grenier then moved that the report be referred back to the Parks and Ferries Committee.The votes on this motion stood twelve to twelve, the Mayor giving his casting vote in favor of the motion.(Applause.)

it was wonderful what an amount of work had been done with the small means at their disposal.He then proceeded to read the annual report of which we give a synopsis.The managers had pleasure in presenting to their friends and the public their second annual report.In doing go the ladies hoped their efforts in bringing out so many young women from Great Britain and lreland, and finding them situations would meet with approbation.Since the last annual meeting 236 persons had been admitted into the home for periuds varying from one day to a fortnight.Of these 138 were English, 63 Irish, 16 Scotch, 13 German, and the remainder of different nationalities a few of them were of a superior class, and were provided with suitable situations, Great difficulty had been experienced in finding places for women with children from whom they did not like to part.As there was no existing home for immigrant boys, no less than eleven from four to six years of age had been sheltered till homes were found for them.Immigrants were allowed Lo remain twenty-four hours in the home free of expense ; after that time a small charge was made for board.Many of the girls were hired at once, thereby saving all expeuse.A great number of those who came te the home were sent out hy the Rev.Mr.Bridger and the Rev, Mr.Wynne, of Killarney, reland, The latter gentleman came to Canada to see for hitdself how those whom he had sent out were getting on in their new homes, and expressed himself as highly gratified with the manner in which ths work of the home was carried on and the kindness shown the girls, He said he would be glad to make known that so excellent an organization existed to protect immigrants.The ladies had held a gathering in January last of all the girls that had been in the home during the season, and were glad to hear of their welfare.The same competent agent had been reengaged to meet the immigrants on their arrival, The managers tendered their thanks to Dr.Richard Macdonell for his continued kindness in visiting the inmates of the howe, and also to the matron for so carefully attending to the girls and the interests of the heme.The home had been honored by a visit from H.R.H.Princess Louise on her last visit to the city ; she had spoken in warm terms of admiration of the work.Miss Evans then read the financial gtatement, which showed that the amount of income from all sources kad been $3, 181.42.In this was included a grantof $1,000 from the Dominion Government and $500 from the Provincial Government.The subscription amounted to $46, dona- tons $230.85 and returned loans $105 32.The expenditure amounted to $1,231.52, made up as follows :\u2014Provisions, $785.85 ; furnishing, $169.60 ; salaries, $343; postage, advertising, printing, etc.$53.71 ; fuel, $169.40 ; rent, $345 ; loans ahd passage money advanced, $307; water, $15.20 ; insurance, $5 ; agent, $15; leaving a balance on hand of $949.40.Miss Motiatt then moved and Mrs.Cramp seconded the following resolution : \u201cThat the reports read be adopted and printed, under the direction of the committee.\u201d Rev.R.Lindeay, speaking in eupport of the resolution, said be thought it was foreign to the objects of the institution to admit boys, and he would also like some explanation about the loans for passage money, aud whether they were re- aid.He had reeeived a letter from Revr.Bridger, saying he was coming out with a shipload of girls in the spring.The Rev.D.V.Lucas had felt à large amount of sympathy for the organization from its beginning.He thought it would be a good idea for the ladies to put themselves in communication with the stewardesses of the steamers, as they might advise them of girls that wanted looking after.When he visited the old land, he found many worthy girls who would like to come out, but from the low rate of wages there could not raise the money; the loans of the society might be applied in such cases.He had received letters from Ireland which mentioned mai y who would come out if they had the money.He could see no difficulty in sending money, if the society found situations for them, and then - gs took precautions to get the money Professional Cardsback graduaily, He had found in JOHN FAIR, the old.country what was perhaps against the society and that was that'first-class girls received as good wages there as they got here (hear, hear,) but on account of the very large proportion who received low wages there were many who would be glad to take the opportunity of coming out if it-were offered to them.He thought the society was moving in the right direction and had done a large amount of good work.With regard to the loans, he thought the society had a right to demand the loans back and als.make the employers responsible for them.The Rev.Mr.Crawford thought the question of loans wanted ventilating as the Australian Government gave free passages while the Government liere only advanced £1 and that with the reduced rate brought the passage down to £2.10.The Rev.J.H.Dixon said it was not the better class of servants they wanted to reach, for he found on inquiry here that very few people would pay such high wages as were paid in the old country.Tae Rev.J.Edgar Hill only wondered that the ladies had been able to recover so much of the loans; it would have been po discrediv if they had not got anything back.There was some mistake about the wages in the old country.High wages right be had perhaps in London, but in Scotland servants only received abot two- thirds of what they got here.They did not find many Scotch people who liked to receive loans; they liked to keep up their independence and would apurn the idea of help, but they would also be glad of coun cil and advice.The resolution was then put and earried.Lady Galt then moved, seconded by Miss Badgeley, that the following members of the -ociety be the office-bearers, board of management, general committee and advisory board for the coming year :\u2014 Patrons\u2014H.R H.Princess Louise;

it would be intolerable to deal out the water by meter in case of a conflagration.This, obviously, is a very different matter from the gas supply for lighting or heating purposes, which is a marketable commodity, and may be furnished by a municipality or by a vompany of proprietors.The former, it it saw fit to do su, could also enter into the supply of, say, cheap \u2018bread, or cheap clothing, or cheap houses.We all need these things, and they are quite as essential as cheap light; indeed, the things signitied, whether cheap or dear, cannot be dispensed with, whereas no one is obliged to use gas; he may use candles or coal oil, as, indeed, the larger part of the citizens do at present.Much has been raid and written upon the poor quality of the gas supplied by the Moutreal Gas Company.ls it generally known that there is a Government inspee- tor, that the quality of the gas is scientifically tested daily, and when it falls below the legal standard the Company is notified ot the fact ?But, says suine one, \u201cmy gas bills arc as large as they were before the reduction of the price.\u201d That, I admit, is quite possible, and if the price were reduc- el to the lowest figure named, complaints on this score would not le wanting.Two causes may account for this, viz., increased consumption or leakage from defective gas-fittings, Let those who complain of extravagant bills examine the index dials of their meters daily, and note consumption, and if they find the quantity registered in excess of probable use, get their meters tested by the Government Inspector :\u2014If they will not take the trouble to do this, they should cease to complain of their inconveniently large bills., One word mere since I have pen in Land, I think that it would be a very greut evil to allow another company to dig up our streets.They are now trenched for water, sewers and gas, and surely they are in sufficiently bad condition, and need not be made worse, as they would infallibly be, if Alderman Holland\u2019s motion should prevail, to allow the Citizens, or ray the Star light gas company, to dig trenches in every street, and lay service pipes to every house.Henry LYMAN.Confucius Bible, at \u201cTemple Emanu-El Fair this evening.\u2014\u2014\u2014 LoNEJACK, Mo., Sept., 11, 1879 I have been using Hop Bitters, I have received great benefit from them tor liver complaints and malarial fever.They are superior to all other medicines.P.M.BARNES, THE ATLANTIC & NORTH-WEST RAILWAY COMPANY will apply to the Dominion Parliament, at its next Session, for the passage of an Aet confirming the sale of a portion of its line of Railway to the Ontario & Quebec Railway Company, and granting to the Company all powers and authority requisite to give effect to the conditions of the said sale.By order of the Board.HARRY CUTT, Secretary.Montreal, 29th Nov., 1883.2m 287 ACCOUNTANT.Commissioner for: taking Affidavits o Ontario.115 ST.FRANCOISEXAVIER STREET.March 23 70 THOMAS DARLING, Accountant and Auoiton.242 ST.JAMES STREET, MONTREAL.May 20 120 H.SANDFIELD MACDONALD, (Late Maclennan & Macdonald.)

yesterday afternoon, were all about Mr.Joseph's presence at meetings of the Light Committee, the former asserting that he had been present at five or six, while the latter said only two.A HERALD reporter afterwards asked Mr.Gosselin, assistant City Clerk, about the matter, and upon reference being made to the minutes it was found that there had been bat four meetings of the Light Committee this fall at which the gas contract had been discussed.These were as follows :\u2014Oc- tober 16th, with closed doors; October 24th, November 6th, and November 15.According to the minutes Mr.Joseph

Patterson\u2019s New York Opera Company we think it would be difficult to improve upon.We have nothing hut the highest praise to bestow upon this talented company, and we think it hus been a long time since a better pleased audience has left the Academy of Music.A lot of the opera has already been published n our columns.'Thecostumes are extremely handsome, picturesque and modest.The cast is exceptionally good, amd the chorus, for its size, one of the best we ever listened to, The finale of the second act is one of the grandest ever heurd in comic opera; it was enthusiastically encored.Miss Fanny Redding, who took the character of the King, acted with much grace and looked the part to perfection ; her solo in the third act was very finely rendered.Louise Manfred, who played the part of the Queen, is not unfamiliar to a Montreal audience, she having sang here in Gilbert and Sullivan\u2019s opera about a season ago, and as the Queen, last night, she added another success.she looked as pretty as ever, if not more s0, and acted and sang in a most charming manner, and was a great favorite with the audience.Miss Searle 1s a new comer, but made à most favorable impression, bein, both an accomplished actress and singer, an as Dona Irene it would be difficult to improve upon, she also established herselfasa favorite.Miss Cooper, as the Marchloness, did not have very much to do, but what she had, did it in an exceptionable manner.Mr.C.M.Pyke, an old Montreal favorite, was in his element as Don Cervantes and acted and sang his part capitally, his solo in the seeond act being one of the gems of the evening.Mr.Pyke is fast advancing to the head of his profession where he right- fulty belongs.Mr.Greensfelder, as the Prime Minister, has a very difficult part to perform, which he did in a very satisfactory manner, and, both as a comedian and singer, is entitled to ail the high praise that has been bestowed upon him.Gustave Adolphi, as Sancho, was extremely amusing, and kept the audience in continual laughter while upon the stage.Asa comedian we have had few better.His broad German accent added much to make his character the success it was, His song to the moon deserves especial praise.The Ministers of War, Messrs.Hatter, Ken- worthy and Hall, were very good, indeed.| Mr.Hatter's make up and queer voice were exceedingly laughable.The choruses were magnificently rendered and deservedly encored.\u2018Che orchestra, under the leadership of Herr Hans Kreissig, was excellent.A PARISIAN ROMANUE.Next week we will have at the Academy Mr.Richard Mansfield as the Baron Chevrial in a Parisian Romance.The Chicago Inter- Ocean says:\u2014 The Baron Chevrial of Mr.Mansfield is an extraordinarily potent and analytical treatment of character, being as ncarly perfeet in its sustained portraiture as it seems possible to make acting that exceeds natural limitations.The creation is due to the faculty of the actor, and 1s as much his own property as ir it were a tangible possession, acquired by catching success from the failure of others.Grantiug the premise of the idea the conclusion in demonstration was faultless.If we may imagine such à character we must ad- mitthe aceurucy of Mr.Mansfield\u2019s impersonation.But whetheror not we may be willing to accept the proposition ot personality, we cannot escape the fact that the actor mani:ested a genius that enforces the praise one might desire to withhold from the reflection of a characterization 80 odious.There is no detail slighted, no effects neglected.There is a digposition to recoil from the intense horror of the representa~ tion which is overcome by the irresistible longing to see the conclusion of such a study, and reviewing it out of the immediale presence, one finds that an indelible impression has been made on the mind, and the work so secures the reward of its greatness.Never have we looked upon a more ghastly spectacle in theatric display than is presented by Mr.Manstleld at the midnight banquet when the Baron Chevrial\u2014standing with wine glass uplifted, his mouth drawn aside, his eyes sct, the facial expression hideous\u2014is struck with the final nervous shock, racked by the deadly tremor, the mind struggling to express the ideas thatzcome incoherently and maudlin from the palsicd tongue, and the shattered system gives way.CRIME REPORIS.Police Court.Present\u2014A.C.DuGas, P.M.MONDAY, 10th December.Matthew Crow and Thomas Hannapy, ims plicated in the G.T.R.brass robberies, were fined $2 or 10 days each.Thomas Romain was acquitted.The remaining cases were continued to Wednesday.Joseph Brunette, rag picker, was arrested charged with stealing 14 dynamite cartridges and 25 pieces of fuse.On Friday last Mr.O'Neil, foreman for Martin Benoit, contractor, missed these articles from a building in the upper part of Roy street.He thereupon notified the police of the fact.A search was then made, and the missing articles were found in Mrs.Cabana\u2019s, of Sb.Jean Bapliste.She said that she purchased them from Joseph Brunette, who was thereupon arrested.He says he thought they were pieces of candles and cigar stumps.As the police officers were unwilling to take charge of these dangerous articles they were returned to the owner.In the meantime the prisoner was remanded.William Brown was arrested on a charge of stealing a fur cap belonging to Mr.Henderson, foreman for Messrs.Ives & Co., to whose premises he had gone and made a selection for the coming winter.lie denied this charge and was remanded.The adjourned case of Joseph Rielle vs.Joseph Gravel for evading payment of toll, was again continued to the 12th instant.John Lee on suspicion of larcency was remanded to the 17th instant.Recorder\u2019s Court.MONDAY, 10th December.John Finnegan who boards with his brother- in-law got drunk on Saturday and made a disturbance.His brother-in-law attempted to quiet him and received a smart blow ia the face, Finnegan's sister then tried her powers with her brother and was similarly treated.For the first assault John Was soothed with the calming expression, $5 or 15 days, The sentence on the second charge was suspended Guillaume Hebert, who owns a quadruped, apparently once a horse, was arrested for ill using the animal, and was condemned to pay 82, and in default4 days.The latter contingency might benefit the quadruped.; Alfred Paquet, acarver, took upon himself to borrow a horse and sleigh, standing at the cornre of Craig and St.Urbain streets to draw some wood he wanted to remove, and as the roprietor ofthe rig had not been consulted, he had the carver arrested.The Recorder, moved to compassion by therecital, exercised charity towards the delinquent carver and et him free.\" \u2018Ann Moreau, a vagrant attended the levee, and being charged with drunkness, was sent 10 winter quarters in default of paying $5.Phillip Kearney, a young man who passes his time in moving from hotel to hotel instead of working, was arrest d on Saturday evening and charged with vagrancy.In order to test his financial standing he was called upon to pay $1 or retire for one month.John Allen went to the fire on Saturday in company with some of his friends.As they were obstrueting the footpath, a policeman requested them to move on, but while the others compiied, John was obstinate.On reflection he repented and pleaded guilty, in return for which he was allowed to pay $2 d costs.A ames Carroll, an unfortunate lad of 14 years of age, whose mother is dead, and who has already served

Committee met at the \u2018Windsor Hotel last evening, Mr.R.D.Mc- Gibbon in the chair.It was resolved that an exhibition of fire- werks be given at the East End during Carnival week.The site will probably be the City Hall, Viger Garden or Place d'Armes.The handsome picture of the ice palace, prepared by Hutchison & Steele, is to be sentto Mr.Erastus Wiman, of New York, who will give it a prominent place in the window of the Broadway office of the Carnival.Enquires are so numerous as to the details of the festival that it was decided to issue an edition of the programme in ordinary type at once, for the press, the railroads and enquiries at à distance.The artistic programme now in the hands of the Burland Co., is expected to be issued in about ten days.The Chairman requested to be excused from residing at the next two meetings, owing to maportant business requiring his presence in Philadelphia.His request was granted.Messrs.Starke and Iles will attend the meeting ofthe General Passenger Agents in Boston next week, im the interests of the Carnival.After routine business, the committee adjourned.Newspaper Notices.The Secretary of the Carnival Committee is continually

Often we hear of worthless stocks of glowing mines, lands, ete., aad men who have lost their all in such.But the grain and provision speculation is something safe and legitimate that people can see and know the changes in the price of each product and the state of the markets every five minutes during the day, for it is well known that the weather, supply and demand governs the price.We would advise, therefore, anyone wishing to invest or seeking information to call at our office, No.13 Hospital street, Montreal, room No, 1, where any required information will be most cheerfully given, and the latest guotations seen of the London, Liverpool ew York, Chicago and St.Louls markets, by direct telegraph communication to us.We respectfully Despeak your favor, ADDEN & BEAULIEU, No.13 Hospital'street.(Cut this out.)

through the window, striking Mrs.Hennessy near the eye.They then burst in the door, clubbed Hennessy, and brought his danghter out ofher room without letting her dress.Policeman Ballister held out her

Wounded.Hona Kone, Dec.10.\u2014Fifty Annamites and Chinese were killed and over a hundred wounded during the attack on Haiphong.Protection to Foreigners.The Viceroy at Canton has assured the Americans of his desire and power to protect them.The anxicty of foreigners there is allayed for the present.An American Consul\u2019s Opinion.NEw York, Dec.10.\u2014Dr.Platt, American Consular agent at Chefoo, just arrived, says if war is declared between France and China the result to foreigners living in China will be fearful to contemplate.The Chinese are terribly fanatical.and the slightest excitement may precipitate horrible atrocities.Nearly every foreigner in China sympathizes with the Mongolians who have been forced into their position by France.Dr.Platt says Admiral Shufeldt\u2019s letter reflecting on the Empress caused a tremendous sensation at Pekin.Li-tung Chang was furious.He seat for Miaister Young and remonstrated about it in a very stormy manner.Mr.Young is a great favorite with the Chinese Government and has more influence with Li than any other foreign representative.Other Ministers are wild with jealousy at the preference Li is beginning to show for America.The Minister, however, should be supported by proper naval representation.The people ridicule our vessels and imagine we do not send better because we are unable to.If there is war with France, civil war in France is almost certain.Dr.Platt says although much has been written about Corea that country isa humbug, An Admiral\u2019s Opinion.PHILADELPHIA, Dec.10.\u2014-Rear-Ad- miral Crosby, recently in command of the Asiatic squadron, says he is positive there will be no general war between China and France.China is no match for France and must inevitably give in.\u2018The Latest Orders.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014The Government has telegraphed to the commander in Tonquin to continue preparations for the campaign against Sontay and Bac-Ninh, but await fresh orders before taking decisive action.An Unconfirmed Story.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014A letter from Pekin states that at a meeting of the Imperial family and the Ministry, opinion was unanimous against war with France.The Debate in the French Chamber.Paris, Dec.10.\u2014In the Chamber of Deputies to-day the debate upon the Tonquin credits bill was resumed.M.Pelletan reproached the Government for its colonial policy and compared the evants in Tonquin with what has been done in Tunis.M.Ferry declared that far from leading the country into the four quarters of the world in quest of colonial adventures, the colonial policy of the Government was entirely conservative.In going to Tunis the Government had in view solely the security of Algeria, and it went to Tonquin for the sake of the security of French Cochin China.M.Ferry said the Republican Government of Frauce was not responsible for the present expedition to Tonquin, Admiral Montaignae, Minister of Marine, as far back as 1875 pointed out the necessity for establishing A French Protectorate Over Annam.The Government, far from entertaining any illusions regarding the attitude of China, believes that China would notgo so far as to resort to armed intervention, A rupture between France and China had not occurred, but the Cabinet had never ceased to act as if a rupture were possible.The Government had treated China as a great Power, which course he did not regret.The Government had exhausted every combination and system of conciliation.\u2018The treaty was withheld in consideration of a possibility of conciliation.France might have broken off the negotiations when China proposed that France should evacuate Tonquin, but France desired to continue them.It was impossible to accept the proposition of China's occupying the left bank of the Red River and the establishment of a neutral zone.M.Ferry referred to the action of China in declaring that if the French forces went in the direction of Sontay and Bac-Ninh they might encounter Chinese troops, He said it was for the Chamber to say whether it would leave Sontay to China, but that would be a singular way of Avenging the Death of Captain Riviere, It was impossible to order the French troops to suspend their march on Sontay and Bac-Ninh in the absence of a serious basis upon which an arrangement of the difficuliy might be effected.\u201cIf the Chamber,\u201d he said, *believes there is another course to ursue to maintain the honor of ranee and the safety of Cochin China, let it say so distinctly.Diplomacy not having ended, military action will remain within the limits indicated.It is necessary for France to be Stroug in the Deltn and to hold strategical points, in order to negotiate advantageously.The present force in Tonquin will not be increased until Admiral Courbet requests it.\u201d M.Ferry asked the House to give a vote of confidence in the interests of the army and of the negotiations carried on by the Goyernment.M.Andrieux declared that dissimulation existed in regard to the affair and the acts of the Government.M.Ribot denied that voting the credits would imply approval of the entire conduct of the Government.It was now impossible to advise the abandonment of Tonquin, and a new Cabinet would disastrously affect the army.No other Cabinet was ready to take the reins of Government.M.Clemenceau declared that nobody dreamed of abandoning the soldiers of France in the presence of an enemy, but the negotiations could not be confided to the present Cabinet.A vote of confidence would mean a declaration of war with China.A Government Victory.The credits Lill! was then adopted by 381 to 146.M.Ferry accepted the order of the day proposed by Birt \u201cthat the Chamber was convinced that Government would display unceasing energy in defending the influence and honor of France in Tonquin, and passes to the order of the day.\u201d This was carried by 315 to 206.Les THE SOUDAN REBELLION.His Majesty of Abyssinia on the Watch.Cairo,
