ToroNTO, August 14.\u2014According to the report of the Bureau of Industry for the month of August just issued, a good harvest of grain crops in Ontario is assured.Fall wheat gives an average yield of 21} bushels spring wheat of 18} bushels per acre, the average of both being twenty bushels, aid the aggregate production exceeds that of last year\u2019s harvest by 10,360,000 bushels.Barley was a good crop in southern and southwestern countries, but in the northern and northwestern it was affected by summer drought.Grain, though plump and heavy, was discolored by the rain showers of last week.The July oat crop accounts are much the same as for barley, but, being two or three weeks later in ripening, has been greatly benefited by the July rains.The area in rye is much less than last year, but the average yield is about the same.Peas are a bountiful crop.It is estimated that the hay crop is millions of tons less than last year.The appearance of the corn crop is not promising, due partly to inferior seed and partly to the low temperature of June and July.A good crop of beans is expected.Reports of root crops are generally favorable.ONTARIO TEACHERS\u2019 ASSOCIATION.The Papers

Duval opposed the credit and urged its rejection.M.Ferry reminded the House that the Government\u2019s action in the east had received the hearty approval of the Chambers.He willingly accepted the responsibility of the Tientsin treaty.The date of the evacuation of various places was accepted by Li Hung Chang.The protest of Hung L Yamen was made too late to be considered and was valueless, as the Langson affair had then occurred.M.Ferry maintained that China had shamefully violated the Tientsin treaty.The Langson incident was a veritable ambush, The French were not blameable for acting too precipitately, but for showing too.much patience.When China finally offered an indemnity of three million francs our patience was exhausted.Admiral Lesseps was ordered to destroy the forts at

Something in Them\u2014The Official Report.NEw York, August 14.-\u2014The charge of cannibalism against the members of the Greely expedition has been thoroughly investigated by a Herald reporter.It has been discovered that there is a basis for the charges, though the circumstances of the case are by no means so horrible or sensational as the published story indicates, It is a fact that portions of the flesh of some of the bodies recovered had been cut away.There is not the slightest evidence to prove that this flesh was eaten by the dead men\u2019s comrades, and it has been suggested that the flesh was used for bait to catch shrimps, upon which the survivors subsisted for a long time.There isno doubt the whole affair has been grossly exaggerated.The Herald has learned that when the Greely party was rescued each member was on the brink of incanity.When they left Fort Congor they fully expected to find well filled caches of provisions, and if it had not been for the misfortune or mismanagement which attended the relief expedition of Lieut.Garlington there would have been no horrors to relate.Some of the bodies found by the men of the Thetis and Bear were found to have slices of flesh cut from their breasts and legs.The skin had been first carefully cut away, the flesh afterward carved out and then the skin drawn over the bones.There is no doubt Commander Schley was aware of the mutilated condition ot the bodies.It has also been discovered that there was a certain amount of insubordination, bickering and jealousy among the men of the Greely expedition.Lieut.Kisling- bury, one day after landing at Fort Conger, was reprimanded by Lieut.Greely for oversleeping himself.Words passed between them, and Kislingburg asked to be sent back on the Proteus, which was granted, Kislingburg started for the Proteus, but just as he had approached within a short distance of the vessel the ice floe broke away, releasing the Proteus, which immediately steamed away.Kislingburg returned to camp, ard Greely relieved him from duty.He was not thereafter allowed to take part in any of the scientific parts of the expedition.After Fort Conger was abandoned Greely, realizing that he might die first, reinstated Kisling- burg as second in command.This he did because there was no other officer surviving competent to take command.ANNAPOLIS, August 14.\u2014 General Lockwood, father of Lieut.Lockwood, has received assurances that his son\u2019s body was not mutilated.ASHINGTON, August 14.\u2014 Lieut, Greely\u2019s official report of theexecution of Private Henry, near Sabine, is published.It shows that ten men had died of starvation and two lay at the point of death when the order was carried out.Bacon was stolen by Henry on March 24th,when the party had nearly perished from asphyxia aud when several men were unconscious and efforts were being made for their restoration.Greely says he repeatedly warned Henry, and signed the order for his execution on his own idividual responsibility.Every member of the party, however, approved of his action.He gives all details in connection with the case, and asks that a court of enquiry be ordered if it is considered advisable, Unguestionabie Evidences of Canulie balism\u2014Lieut.Kislingbury\u2019s Bd ly Exhumed.WasHINGTON, August 14.\u2014The Star ublishes the following : \u201c Rochester, Ky.August 14\u2014Dr.Charles Buckley and F.A.Mandeville this morning, at the request and expense of the Post and Express, and with the consent of the surviving brothers, made a post mortem of the body of Lieut.Kislingbury, of the Greely expedition.All the flesh of the body had been cut completely off from the bones except on the face, hands and feet.The organs of the thoracic cavity were intact.Evidence was found of recent inflammation of the stomach and bowels.There were no wounds on the head.Kislingbury\u2019s body was eaten by his companions, RecHEsTER, N.Y., August 14.\u2014 The 0st mortem examination of Kisling- Pary\u2019s body was made in the chapel of Mount Hope cemetery.The body was packed in cotton batting and wrapped in cotton cloth, sewed together in woollen blankets.The body weighed on the table less than fifty pounds.The head was perfect, having long hair and full beard and moustache.From the neck to feet every article of muscle, flesh and skin had een cut off with a sharp instrument to the bones, The flesh on the hands and feet was perfect and not decomposed.No bones had been broken.The organs of .dbus | the thoracic and abdomenal cavity were à Hpresent.There was ample evidence of recent peritonitis and gastritis, There was a hard lumpy substance in the large intestines, also fecal matter composed of hair, moss and woody fibre.The fact of cannibalism was most completely proven, The brothers of the deceased were present during the examination and readily re- coguized the body.After examination the remains were put back into the casket and again lowered to the grave.Doctors Buckley and Mandeville have made affidavits as to the facts brought out at postmortem.W.A.Kislingbury, brother of the deceased outlined the condition of things which would lead to the belief that the Greely expedition was divided into two parties and by which one perished because the other had gained possession by force of the food supply.In this ostracised party were Lieut.Kislingbury and Dr.Pavy.The condition of Lieut.Kis- lingbury\u2019s body shows that he died of starvation at the time the others had some food supply.There was absolutely nothing in his stomach, yet it is reported he bad helped kill a Polar bear three days before he died.Kislingbury takes a gloomy view and thinks there was a struggle among the starving, desperate men and that the strongest by virtue of authority and possession of the little food on hand survived.Lieutenant Kislingbury, it seems, was under the ban of Greely\u2019s displeasure from the beginning.Drs.Buckley and Mandeville have made a sworn statemement of the facts disclosed by the exhumation of Kisling- bury\u2019s body.The excitement hereabout it is unabated.It is rnmored that private Ellis remains will be exhumed.LAFAYETTE, Ind, August 14.\u2014The body of Whistler, of the Greely expedition, will be exhumed to-morrow tofas- certain the truth of the cannibalism story.FISHING FOR THE IRISH VOTE, Batler to the Front, as Usual Boston, August 14.\u2014What was styled the \u201cIrish National Oratorical and Political Demonstration,\u201d took place to-day in the Institute Fair building.Fully ten thousand persons were present.Governor Robinson and ex-Governor Butler sat side by side on the stage.Father Mc- Kenna, the chairman, opened with introductory remarks, followed by Gov.Robinson.Robinson made a long address.Sexton said the news of this gathering would cause a thrill of delight in Ireland ; when Ireland heard of the honors paid the Irish ambassadors by Massachusetts they will feel the time fast coming when the British Government will know its oppressions are done under the scrutiny of humanity.I shared in the military reception to-night.I was struck by the novelty of it.(Laughter.) The attentions of the military to prominent men in Ireland are usually of a different kind.Mr.Redmond said :\u2014\u201c1It affords us no pleasure to sit at West- minister we hate Westminister, but we feel it our duty to stand there and defend the Irish people.We are preparing for the fray and come here to ask your elp.Mrs.Parnell also addressed the meeting.General Butler said :\u2014They tell us that we over here have no right to interfere with matters in Ireland.Had Lafayette and others no right to come over here to help our fathers in their struggles.I know but of one set of men who had no right to come over and they were Hessians who were hired for the purpose by England.Washington and is colleagues were the Parne)ls of our early days.History will repeat itself.Alexander Sullivan, W.E.Robinson, Senator Jones and others spoke, and letters were received from S.S.Cox, President Eliot of Harvard, Daniel Manning, Gen.Sheridan, John Kelly, Gov.Cleveland and others.GENERAL GAOL DELIVERY.Three Marderers Escape from a Peni® tentiary.FRANKFORT, Ky., August 14.\u2014There was a desperate effort to escape on the part of the prisoners at the penitentiary to-day.The plot was only partially successful, Capt.Johnson, the guard at the gate, had recently received an intimation of the conspiracy.John R.Wolff, son of the County Clerk of Scott County, recently sent for 10 years for forgery, seems to have been the ringleader.He knocked Johnston senseless with a bottle, Eight others rushed for the arms kept near by, and the firing began, many being more or less hurt on both sides.\u201cAlsop, Graves and Grant, all murderers, escaped.Thirty armed men are in pursuit.olff says nearly fifty were in the plot to escape.The arrangement between him and Alsop was to stand at the gate and kill the first guard who dared approach and remain until the whole, gang in the plot came out.This he said Alsopdidn\u2019t do while he himself was true to his word, THE SCANDAL MILL.A Charge Against Mr.Blaine which will Lead to a Lawsuit, INDIANAPOLIS, August 8.\u2014On the 8th the Sentinel contained an editorial charging that Blaine seduced his present wife in Kentucky and fled to Maine, where the young woman and her father followed and he married her at the point of the shot gun.This having reached Blaine, he telegraphed Colonel Holloway that the statement was maliciously and infamously false in every particular.Political slanders he says he pays no attention to but this attacked the honor of his wife and children and could not be submitted to.Holloway was asked to secure the services of a lawyer immediately, and bring a suit agaiest the publishers of the Sentinel in the United States Court.Holloway placed the matter in the hands of Senator Harrison\u2019s law partner and the papers are now being prepared in accordance with Blaine\u2019s direction.\u201c IATEST COMMERCIAL NOTES, Labor Troubles.KANSAs CITY, August 14,\u2014The Union Pacific railroad shops were closed to-day, throwing 300 men out of employment.New York, August 14.\u2014Berlinger & Strauss, manufacturers of neck wear, tate that their failure was caused by the La \u201cwinds ;

first page.\u2014\u2014The White Cross line steamer Hel- vetia, which left this port Tuesday last for Antwerp, took out 71 boxes and 59 cases of eight lots each (22,000 1bs.) tobacco purchased from the Adams Tobacco Company for a large tobacco concern in Roterdam, Holland.The steamer Polino, which left on the same day for St.Johns, \u2018Newfoundland, has also on board 195 packages of tobacco for that city, 170 of which are from the Adams Tobacco Company and 25 from Messrs, George E.Tucket & Sons.The above speaks well for our manufacturers, as it is not long ago that Canada was not even dreamed of as a tobacco manufacturing country.We understand that the Adams Tobacco Company had received from the French Government an official letter asking it to immediately send in a tender to the French Regie for 130,000 kilogrames of manufactured tobaccos as per specifications furnished.This is another proof that we no more form part of the outside world.WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE WHOLESALE MARKETS.MONTREAL, August 14, 1884.The State of Trade.There is little to add to our report last week.Trade is dull and featureless, as much so as in previous years at this geason.In some branches, however, a welcome enquiry in springing up, indicating that buyers a:e feeling the necessity of replacing their now greatly reduced stocks.The volume is not large, it is true, but if we consider that the purchases, while smaller at a time, are more frequently made, we will find that in the aggregate there is a very good business being done.Travellers complain that their orders are not so large, but at the same time they must remember that there is a disposition on the part of buyers to avail themselves of the greatly increased facilities of transport and communication which now prevail, and if the orders are smaller at a time than heretofore, the consumption is not on that account anything the less.The glowing reports from the country respecting the crop prospec's are being fully realized, and the farmers will time to refer to their note books and ascertain what their requirements are.In the meantime, however, our merchants are not anxious to retain their extensive assortments of new goods, preferring that they should be in the hands of their customers.To them, there isa strain in waiting for larger sales, and they will realize with relief the final housing of the crops.Country buyers have been schooled into a system of cautious buying, and it will be some time yet before they will lay aside the experience they have gained.To buy little and often may suit them, but to the merchant a different course is preferable.Boots AND SHOES\u2014It will require some weeks yet for our manufacturers to turn out the goods for which they have received orders.Travellers have done good work, and though the orders placed were smaller than usual, buyers will repeat orders by mail until the time comes for fall sorting up orders, The prospects are therefore that while the run of ordêts will be small for some time, they will be more numerous.Values are unchanged, Curm1cAL8\u2014 There is no change in the tone of the market or prices, Bleach- soon have* ing powder is firm, A decline in the English market, from the highest point took nlace, but it has firmed up again, owing to fresh requirements as a disinfectant\u2019 in places affected by ani threatened with cholera.Às regards caustic soda cable advices report a very firm market in Liverpool at 53 advance.In consequence holders here have advanced their views and we quote a strong market.Sal soda shares in the advance noted above and is equally firm.In other chemicals there is a mere consumptive demand which is small and values are unchanged.CoaL \u2014A steady market at unchanged prices continues to rule.Sellers are engaged in filling the contracts made in the early part of the season, and it will require some time to come before this is completed.We quote: \u2014 Anthracite, $5.58 for ege and furnace, and $5.58 for stove and chestnut In lots of 100 tons and upwards, and $5.75 and $6.00 respectively in smaller lots.Bituminous coal is also unchanged at $4.25 for Scotch steam, $4.00 for Pictou, and $3.40@$3.45 for Cape Breton in cargo lots.CorrEE\u2014Business this week has not plucked up any life, and no transactions other thau those of a small distributing character have taken place.Prices have not undergone any change.CorToNs AND WooLLENS\u2014The demand for cottons is better than it was last month, and it is said there is a decided improvement, although buyers are still hesitating, apparently lacking confidence in the prospects of unreduced prices.The present stocks are being gradually worked off and a generally improved market prevails in consequence.The David Morrice & Co.\u2019s settlement will have the effect of steadying the market as there will not now be any necessity to slaughter stocks to meet the payments, which might have been necessary under other circumstances.In woollens there is a demand springing up for flannels and blankets, and as this ischiefly on manufacturers agents, the gresumption is that stocks are gettieg light, Merchants are making enquiry for higher priced goods, goods which formerly they would not look at.The de- maud for spring tweeds is fully equal to that of last year.A good many woollen manufacturers on taking stock at the end of the present month will find the margin of profis so low that it will be more profitable to abstain from working than to carry on at the prices which have hitherto prevailed.Dry Goons\u2014The present week has developed a better feeling and goods are moving out more freely, although not with that freedom that was anticipatsd by merchants, The indications, for the present at least, are that the volume of the ordinary fall trade will not be large.Parcels arc smaller than formerly, shewing that country merchants are either carrying large stocks or else that they are still unwilling to load their shelves.The opinion prevails, however, insome quarters, that country merchants generally have larger stocks on hand than is generally believed.Payments are slow end renewals are frequent.Fisa\u2014Advices from Newfoundland and Gaspe do not contain any inorc cheering accounts from the fisheries Small lots of fresh dry cod have made their appearance and are selling at $4.75 @ $5.B.C.salmon are offered at $15, and North Shore No.!1 at $18.Canned fish, both lobsters and mackerel, are unchanged.FretanTs,\u2014 The tone of the market is unchanged, and rates have not undergone any variation.No new charters are reporter for lumber for South America.Fruits Driep\u2014There is no change in the market since last week\u2019s report.Fruits GREEN-The ripening of domestic fruits is having the effect of reducing the demand for imported goods, and the supply of a number of them is, as a consequence, falling off.The hot weather has, however, increased the demand for lemons and they are selling freely at $2.50@$4.50 per box.Good bananas are scarce at Ba 00 per bunch.The demard for Spanish onions is considerably affected by the advent of the domestic article.They bring $4.50 per case.California pears are unchanged at $5.00@5.50 per box.Bartletts are advanced this week; sell readily at 89@$10 per barrel.Peaches are unchanged at $2.50@$3.00 per crate.Apples are dull and coming in very plentifully.They sell at $2.50@$3.00 per barrel.Grapes are offered at 10c@12¢ for Concord and 20¢ for Delaware.California plums are still in supply at $3.00 per crate, Small fruits have given way to the domestic products.Tomatoes are offered at 50c@ 75¢ for one-third bushel basket.FresH BEEF \u2014 The market is again dull, drooping and neglected, butchers finding it more to their advantage to slaughter without inspection, than to buy inspected beef.Prices are unchanged.GROCERIES \u2014 The country * trade is quite as good as reported last week.Housekeepers are buying cautiously, which maintains business in a healthy state.Orders are coming in for small lots, but the aggregate of the business done is equal to last year.Payments are good.Hipes AND SKINS\u2014Owing to a scarcity of hides there is a demand for them.Butchers\u2019 No.1 are worth $9 per 100 lbs, No.2 $8 and No.3 $7.Lambskins are worth 50c each and of sheepskins there are none.The remaining quotations are unchanged.Hors\u2014The reports from the Eastern Townships, Huntingdon and other districts in the province are more than satisfactory, the crop being considered very nice.On the Lake Shore sections in r Ontario they are said to be infected with lice, but this, it is expected, will be overcome in time to save the crop.Choice hops are scarce and are in the hands of one or two at about 35c.Buyers are waiting for the new crop, the price of which it is too soon to fix.The acreage this year is larger, and larger crops are the result.If no foreign demand springs up, it is probable that about 20c will be the price.IroN AND HARDWARE.\u2014The enquiry from the West is better this week than it has been for some time past.Consumers are beginning to realize that bottom has been reached and those who are not heavily stocked are now in the market making enquiry, The Glasgow markets are steady, and freights are unchanged,but there are liable to advance at any moment.Values here are unchanged.Stocks are moderately light and owing to the very cautious system of buying prevailing among manufacturers for the last twelve months there is every likelihood of an active demand this

Government when entering into commercial treaties with foreign powers, Sir Francis Hincks has kindly directed our attentien to the fact that the papers called for by an order of the Canadian House of Commous, of date 23rd February, 1883, for the correspondence between the United Kingdom and Canada in reference to trade negotiation with France, Spain and other countries, show that the Mother Country offered to include Canada in the English treaty with Servia in 1880, and that the Canadian Government declined.We find on examining the correspondence that a despatch from Sir Alexander Galt to the Secretary of State at Ottawa, of date 15th September, 1880, reads as follows :\u2014 Orrice oF HiGH COMMISSIONER, | Lonpon, 15th September, 1880.Sir,\u2014I have the honor to enclose, for the information of His Excellency the Governor-General, a copy of a letter addressed to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, intimating that an Order in Council had been passed, expressing the desire of the Canadian Government that the Dominion of Canada should be exempt from the operation of the Commercial Treaty with Servia, I also transmit a copy of thereply 1 have received from Lord Kimberley, stating that my despatch has been forwarded to the Foreign Office, with a request that Lord Granville will cause the necessary steps to be taken to exempt Canada from the operation of the Treaty as desired.I have, %c., A.T.Garr, High Commissioner.Ion.Secretary of State, Ottawa, The letter from Earl Kimberley, Secretary for the Colonies, on this subject shows very clearly that at least the Colonies will not be included in any - commercial treaties between England and other countries without the assent of the Colonial governments :\u2014 .DowxiNg STREET, 22ad July 1880.SIr,\u2014I have the honor to acquaint you that the Treaty of Friendship and Commerce which has been concluded with Servia, and which is communicated to you in my circular despatch of this day\u2019s date, was inadvertently concluded under instructions from the late Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, before my predecessor had had an opportunity of considering the bearings of its provisions upon Colonial interests, As, however, it is very similar to the proposed Treaty with Roumania, which was transmitted for the consideration of the Colonies in my predecessor\u2019s Circular despatch of the 5th June, 1878, and to the terms of which your Government raised no objection, I anticipate that your Ministers will have no objection to its having been made applicable to the Dominion of Canada.If, however, your Ministers should desire that Canada should be exempted from the operations of the Treaty, and will inform me of their wishes before the end of next September, an endeavor will be made by Her Majesty's Government to procure the exemption, by a protocol to be submitted to the Servian Legislature in its next Session, of such Colonies as may desire it.I have to add that steps have been taken to insure that in future every Treaty of Commerce which may be entered into by this Country, before the wishes of your Government snall have been ascertained, shall contain the Article for applying such Treaties to the Colonies, which was enclosed in the Earl of Carnarvon\u2019s circular despatch of the 22nd January, 1878.I have the honor to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant.The Office Administering the Government of Canada.KIMBERLEY, Subsequently \u2014 in 1881 \u2014 Canada requested to \u201c be relieved, as soon as convenient, from the obligations cennected with any treaties of commerce now in existence with foreign countries, as far as such treaties limit the freedom of aétion of the Dominion Parliament, special reference being made to British treaties with Belgium and the German Zollverin, which beth contain a clause stipulating that neither Great Britain nor any of her possessions shall admit their respective productions at lower rates of duty than those imposed upon the goods of the countries named.The stipulations referred to acquire additional importance,\u201d says High Commissioner Galt, \u201cfrom the circumstance that under the most favored nation clause, they seem to be imported into every existing commercial treaty.The treaties in question, having subsisted for their full term, are now liable to be denounced upon one year\u2019snotice.\u201d The Canadian Government asked to be excluded from the English treaty with Roumania, and, as regards a treaty with Ecuador, the colonies were specially excluded by the protocol, but any colony was permitted to take the benefit of the treaty provided it gave in its adhesion within one year after signing the treaty.The Canadian Government informed the Imperial Government that it had no desire to be included, In August, 1881 Canada wired the Colonial Office that it had no objection to be included in a : permitting Canada to give in its adhesion within a year was adopted.In the minute of Council adopted at Ottawa in relation to this treaty there is aun intimation that the Canadian Government did not know what the terms of the Treaty were when it was required to state whether it would accept it or not.In March, 1883, Canada declined to be a party to the treaty with Montenegro.From a perusal of the correspondence it is tolerably certain that we have the privilege of saying that we shall not be unwillingly included in any new treaties between Great Britain and foreign powers, but it does not appear that our interests or our wishes are consulted before these treaties are framed and signed.England acts for English interests, and if the treaties inte which she enters on this basis do not suit us we need not accept them, This is the full extent of the consideration we have thus far received at her hands.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE LATEST RAILWAY NEWS, The Railway News of London, Eng, is a Grand Trunk organ, and this is the way in which it speaks of the country traversed by the railways which form a part of the Canadian Pacific system in Ontario, and of the roads themselves :\u2014 With respect to the Ontario and Quebec Railroad, a correspondent from Peter- borough, Ont., writes under date July 15, 1884 :\u2014\u2018\u2018So far as local traflic is concerned, the Ontario and Quebec Company\u2019s prospects are very, very bad.The country tributary to the road has been denuded of its forest products, and there is nothing left now but cereals, such as may be grown in those portions of the district as are fit for agriculture.Outside Peterborough there is scarcely a settlement which can be dignified by the name of a village, excepting Norwood, so that in a distance of 993 miles from Toronto to Norwood they have nine small hamlets\u2014the town of Peterborough with à population of about 9,000, and the village of Norwood with a population of about 1,500.North of that to Perth, their prospects of local business are no better.The sink-hole at Callader is reported to be one of the worst that railway contractors have bad to deal with in this country.The much-talked-of \u201cthrough\u201d traffic is entirely dependent on the Michigan Central, which is understood to be under Vanderbilt control, and an ally of the New York Central.It cannot be the policy of that company to develop the trade of Montreal, as against New York at any rate, by reducing the rates, as that would mean a reduction of rates over the whole length of the.New York Central, and end in a disastrous railway war.\u2018The prospects of any sort of \u201c paying \u201d traitic are, therefore, not hopeful.Itis quite a stroke of.enterprise on the part, of tue Graul Traukites to have a correspondence office at \u201c Peterboro !\u201d It is an exceedingly happy thought, a masterpiece of oppu-ition ingenuity.\u2018Next to the manufacture, outright, of Corcespondence, this id:a of- making \u201cPeterboro,\u201d of all Canadian towns, develop a hatred of the Oatario aud Quebec, uust be regarded as a startling exhibition of a many sided policy.Then there is that © sink-hole 1\u201d?This sink-hele is relied npon in England\u2014ihanks to Grand \u2018Trunk inceli.gence !\u2014Lo desiroy the usefulness of the Ontario and Pacific.Now this is a most brilliant idea.If the sink-hole had mot disappeared in the meantime, the idea might have been patented by some zealous Grand Trunker whose swallowing capacity, unlike the late sink-hole, would be unlimited.But even without the sink-hole, the \u201c Peter- boro?authority has food for consolation in the fact that the through traffic depends upon the Michigan Central, the Vanderbilt road, and this man Vanderbiltis no friend to Montreal ! ! Herein is richness.The Canadian Pacific has been running in harmony with Vanderbilt for some time, and the merchants of Montreal know whether their Western business is handled as satisfactory by a Vanderbilt road as by the Grand Trunk.Montreal is satisfied with the \u2018\u2018 through\u201d prospects ; the C.P.R., we \u2018understand, is satisfied ; and this Grand Trunker who has been hiding his light under a bushel in \u201c Peterboro,\u201d ought not to be breaking his heart over the distant vision of a Vanderbilt road rejecting paying business.On the whole, we conclude this correspondent of the London Railway News, all the way from \u201c Peterboro\u201d town, is either guying the good people of England, oris too \u201csoft \u201d for anything.The appalling greenness of the author of such intelligence calls for private if not public sy mpathy.re SABLE ISLAND.\u2018The first reports from the wreck of the Amsterdam on Sable Island seemed to blame the people on the island for inhumanity, but the.accounts published in the New York papers by the passengers who have reached that city reflect more particularly on the crew who broached the wine casks, got drunk themselves, and made many of the steerage passengers drunk the loss of life resulting from this cause.There is, it is true, complaint of want of adequate supply of food on the island and of the inefficiency of the officials.One passenger said : \u2014 \u201c When we reached Sable Island we were terribly hungry.The babies were crying for food and the mothers were unable to give it.They themselves had had nothing for many hours, Finally some of the islanders killed two calves, and we all shared the meat, which seemed like .a gift from heaven.\u201d And another passenger, in the course of his statement to the New York World's representative, said :\u2014 \u201c After we received a meagre supply of food from the natives on Sable Ésjand about twenty of the crew were sent to the vessel to endeavor to obtain provisions.They, after an unusually long absence, came back very drunk and abused the people on shore terribly, until they werejsent to the further end of the island.Another party which went to the ment steamer Newfield arrived and took us to Halifax, we were so thankful that we sent up our thanks to our God for our deliverance.\u201d All the passengers, both cabin and steerage, eomplain of the lack of lifesaving appliances on Sable Island.\u201cIt was several hours,\u201d said Mr, C, Ludwig, one of the cabin passengers, \u201cbefore our rockets were seen by the lighthouse keeper on the island, and then he had no rockets or other apparatus to answer us with.He was an old man and it took him five hours to go to the main station, there being no telegraph or telephone connection,\u201d The Department of Marine should meet these statements by some publie explanations.If matters on Sable Island are not as published to the world by the New York press, the fact should be made known.But if, unfortunately, these statements are well founded it is time that matters at so important a wrecking and life saving station should be improved.We donot think that the whole cost of maintaining the service at Sable Island falls on the Dominion, but since Canada is responsible for its management there should be no causes of complaint such as are now described and published broadcast.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014_\u2014_ .THE IMPLACABLE INTERVIEWER.The difficulties which newspaper reporters have to encounter, and are expected to overcome, in order that the public may have its usual quantity of news from day to day was aptly illustrated in the case of Dickinson, the defaulting cashier of the Wall Street Bank, whose stealings are between $300,000 and $400,000.We quote: \u2014 Cashier Dickinson lived in this city at No.80 East Seventy-seventh street.No one responds to repeated ringing of the door bell, though it is evident that some one in the house, and orders have pro- Lably been given not to furnish any information.À reporter, however, had a short conversation with a nurse-maid who was wheeling the eighteen months old chifd of Dickinson along the walk.She said the family lived very plainly, and that the house was not fully furnished.Just before the first of July Mr.Dickinson, with his wife, his two children by a former wife, the baby and the nursemaid, went to the Oriental Hotel at Manhattan Beach.Lately, she said, Mr.Dickinson had been acting very stiangely and was very moody and nervous.Oa one occasion last week, in the evening, Mr.Dickinson and his wife were walking along the promenade at Manhattan Beach, and the nurse was following behind with the baby in her arms.The moon was shining brightly, and the tide was high.Dickinson turned to his wife and said: \u201c What a splendid night to jump into the water aud end all trouble.\u201d Last Thursday night the trunks were packed and in the morning Mr, Dickinson, with his family, returned to this city by way of Long Island City.He kissed his wife and children good-by at the Thirty-fourth Street Ferry, and they came to the house in a carriage, while he went down town by the elevated railroad.In the evening Mr.Dickinson sent a despatch to his wife telling her that he would not be home, but that he was all right and she was not to worry.Since that time she has not heard from him, and she does not now know where he is.Interviewing seems to have been put to a useful purpose in this instance, and the intelligent \u201chousemaid\u201d became a purveyor of news such as the public has been demanding.The story is a brief one, but it is graphically told, and it covered the very facts which had been missing.After all \u201c interviewing\u2019 is a good institution but, like many another good institution, it is liable to be abused, With all his faults the \u201cinterviewer\u201d sheds a flood of light around him.In the United States, in connexion with recent bank troubles, the interviewing reporter bas literally \u201cturned inside out\u201d the damaged institutions and all concerned in their ruin, and has been in various ways an aid to justice in this connexion.THE NEW LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOB.The appointment of Hon.Mr.Caron to the Lieutenant-Governorship of Quebec, we fear, will not be generally popular.Mr.Caron is a gentlemanly, affable party and would\u2014in these days of gubernatorial responsibility\u2014make as good a Lieu- enant-Governor as there is any call for.It should, however, be remembered that the Quebec district bas, so far,\u201d furnished all the Lieutenant-Governors for the Province\u2014Sir Narcisse Belleau, Judge Caron, Hon.Mr.Letellier, Hon.Mr, Robitaille.The Montreal district, with abundance of material, has not yet been permitted to give the Province a Lieuten- ant-Governor ; and it would really seem as if, considering the support extended to the Government from this section, the time had arrived when a Lieutenant-Governor might properly be taken from this quarter.At all events, we are disposed to believe that the members of Parliament from the Montreal district will not regard with favor the proposal to again fall back upon the Quebec district for a Governor, as if all the suitable material for the office had, from some extraordinary political causes, been \u201chived\u201d in one part of the Province.It seems to us that the Government\u2019s supporters in the Montreal district will have reason to complain if a new departure be not taken in this connexion in the choice of a successor for Governor Robitaille, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 QueBec CITY IN SUMMER.\u2014A gossipy and pleasing account of Quebec, regarded from the standpoint of the visitors
