reciprocity was an issue.Still, Burlington and Acton went for Hender- scn, reducing Mr.Wald'e's lead in tha towns to four, so that the farmers supplied the best part of the net majority for

Cricketers \u2014A Rebuff for the Sixth Royal Scotis\u2014Narrow Escape of Six Railwaymen.(SPECIAL TO THE MERALD.) Orraws, Aug.25.\u2014There is danger that tie action of the Dominion Government in placing a duty upon the crates and baekets in which fruits are imported into Canada from the United States, may afford Americans an excuse for imposing a dnty upon Canadian fruits.Since the Government\u2019s backdown on the standing «fier question last session, green fruits lave been aduuitted free of duty, but iruit growers have been complaining bitterly about being deprived of protection, and during the recent election cou- testin Halton the Tory candidate promised that the fruit duty would be reimposed next session The Gov- ernmeit are apparently trying to satisfy fruit growers by placing a duty upon cases and crates.No duty is charged upon coverings of merchandise By Americans, so that the duty upon crates is an evasion of the standing offer of reciprocity, and may provoke serious retaliation.It has been suggested that the special car in which the Minister of Customs is now travelling with a party of friends towards the Pacific Coast, ought to be seized for non-payment of duty.Tae car has been\u2018 borrowed from ex-Governor Smith, of Vermont, for Mr.Bowell\u2019s special use, and if the retaliatory bill is enforced before Bowell returns, there will be a difficulty about returning it.It is considered strange that such a fire-eating Yankee hater and trade restrictionist as the Minister of Customs should place himself under obligations to an American railway manager.The match between the visiting Irish cricketers und she Ottawa club was eon\u2014 cluded on Rideau Hall grounds hers today.The Ottawa team made 38 runs this morning or 71 altogether, while the Irishmen scored 150.\u2018The visiting team left for Orillia to-night.The application of the Sixth Royal Scots regiment, of Montreal, for permission to attend the Burns celebration at Albany has been refused by the militia authorities.A mail clerk on the C.P.R., who arrived here to-day says that six men had a very narrow escape of being killed between lire Hill and Mazaukoma, near Port Arthur.It appears the men were travelling on a hand car around a curve wherethe track runs on the edge of a great cliff, overlooking Lake Superior, when they noticed a train approaching a few yards from them.All six jumped off, and the locomotive struck the hand ear and sent it flying into the Lake away below.The men escaped, aud the locomotive was not much injured.Solomon Rousel was instantly killed while at work in Eddy\u2019s saw muls this morning, by being struck by a piece of board flying from a circular saw.Deceased was about forty years gid.ce SIR JOHN AND LADY MACDONALD AT TRENTON.Absence of Political Enthasiasm.(Special to the Herald.)

his usual style.The day was fine and seven or eight hundred people were present.The reception was cordial and respect{ul, but there was a com plete absence of enthusiasm and as a political demonstration the affair was a failure.The great majority of the people was present out of curiosity.A complimentary reference to the Tuppers, father and son, was received almost in silence.Froser,

Contract\u2014Favor- able Harvest Reporis\u2014Cabinet Meet.ing\u2014A Waste of Bottled Beer.WinmireG, Man, Aug.26\u2014The naw contract between the Government and the Northern Pacific is completed and the railway officials have examined it carefully.All now required are the siz- natures and ratification.The Free Press and Call continue ta attack the contract in the amended form holding that the concessions accorded donot cover all the objectionable features of the agreement.The Free Press points out that when the C.P.R.offered running power over its roaas, the province refused on the ground that the privilege was no privilege at all, as the railway company could easily surround it with sach difficuites as to practically deprive it of sll advantage.It contands that the same argument holds gool with the Northern lacitic giving running rights to other roads.lt also contends \u201cthere is no assurance in the contract that Brandon will get its road, and once the agreement is ratified it will block the way for private enterprise for two years at least.and thereafter, according to clause 18, until the Railway Commissioner is pleased to \u201ctake posssession of something that does not exist.\u201d The station will be in Fort Rouge this winter.Customs facilities have been asked for by the Northern Pacific people.The reports from ditferent parts of the country show that grain is being cut in every section, and there is every reason to believe the crops will be saved in excellent condition.It is certain now that the damage from frost has been insignificant.Thanksgiving was

by refusing seitlement of our disputes with Canada, and will aid in bringing to public attzntion the absurdity of our petty nelicy toward our northern neighbors.What we ought to do toward Canada is to

A DUEL WITH HAMMERS, Blacksmith Helpers Fight to the Death Abont Politics.New York, August 206.\u2014A duet with hammers was fought in Robert Boulanger\u2019s blacksmith shop, Seacancus, North Hudson.early yesterday morning, which will probably result in the death of one of the combatants.John Vetter and Jacob Schmitt, who work for Boulanger, became involved in a political discussion and from words came to Dblows.Emall hammers were seized and Schmitt secured first blood by laying open Vet- ter's scalp several inches, Vetter re- taliatod by breaking his oppon ent\u2019s nose.Schmitt countered on the cheek and cut it badly.Finally Schmitt raceived a terrific blow oa the head which felled him.Vetter had his injuries dressed by Dr.Schlemm and then came to this city, wtere he 18

occupies a ranch under lease from the Grant Company, wrote a letter to Sheriff Burns here that one hundred settlers had notified his wife during his absence from home that both himself and wife would be banged unless they should leave at once.The sheriff has sent special deputies to the scene to endeavor to keep the peace.Ejectment suits are being prepared »gainst seventy- seven settlers.The settlers go armed and say they will resist.\u201ca co.uision and bloodshed, therefore, seems iinminent.\u2014_\u2014 DEATH AT THE HOWITZER'S BREECH, Artillerymen Struck by Pieces of their Own Gun.Camp GREEN, SEA Girr, N.J., Aug.25.\u2014 The closing day of the encampment of tie Second Brigade, considered the most Lrilliant of the week in consequence of tbe Governor's review and the attendant ceremonies, was marred by a very sad accident, whereby one young soldier lost his life and another sustained injuries from which he will probably\u201d die.The gun detachments of the Third, Sixth and Seventh regiments were out on the parade ground at 10 o'clock this morning giving exhibitions in heavy firing.The three-inch breech-loading naval howitzer, on the right of the field, was manned by Privates Peter Kneipa and Herman laller.The gun on their left was discharged, and Kneipe, thinking that it was his gun that had been Just fired, unfastened the breech clasp Just as Faller pulled the lanyard.Tne charge came through the rear of the gun, carrying with it the breech-pin and the brass collar, each weighing twenty-five pounds.The pin strack Kneipe in the abdomen, completely disembowelling him.The brass collar nit Faller in the thighs, breaking both legs.Poor Kneife died in half an hour, after suffering excruciating agony.Faller was taken to the general hospital at

NORTHWEST.Railroad Men Fearful of Losing Canadian Business in Return.Mixxearorss, Minn., August 25.\u2014Ex- Governor John 8.Pillsbury, one of the heaviest shippers in the Northwest and a heavy stockholder in the \u201cSoo\u201d road, says of Cleveland\u2019s retaliation message: *I don\u2019t think the President should be granted any such power as he asks for.Us too large.The suspension of traffic laws regulating thie passage of bonded ireight through the Unitad Sta'2s would not only shut out the passage of Canadian freight through the country, but would shut off the right to ship freight between tidewater and the Northwest through Canada.This would work a great injustice to the Northwest, which should be allowed to ship its wheat and flour to a market or bring in its merchandise by the cheapest route, Whether it be by Canadian or American ines.\u201cThis message when carefully analyzed amounts to this\u2014it's a move made in the interests of American trunk lines ard gives Mr.Cleveland the entire Northwestern commercial interests as a ciub to work with.I am in favor of pro- tzcling American interests with cannon aud ball if necessary, but don\u2019t believe that vast commercial interests should be used in such a manner as Cieveland proposes.You can readily see that a policy of non-intercourse with Canada would win the great \u2018Soo\u2019 system.\u201d GOOD FOR CHICAGO.James J.Hill, president of the St.Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba road, sa) 8 regarding the message :\u2014 \u201cThe adoption of the proposed mea- sire would not affect the Manitoba road.To ke sure, we have a connection with the Northwest at the boundary, but the business done does not amount to more than $75,000 a year.Of course this will be stopped.The effect on the Northwest would Le most disastrous.The low ratas now produced by competition over the Canadian lines would be lost.All tae businees would have to go via Chi- (ago and the American trunk lines.The supremacy of Chicago, against which these two cities and the whole Northwest is fighting, would be assured.The blow wouli come especially hard just now when we ure beginning to look forward to the close of lake navigation.It would have a disastrous effect on the \u201cSoo\u201d road, as it would defeat the very object for which the road was built.\u201cAll business would be done and all rates be made under the Interstate Commerce law.Of course the American trunk lines will favor the measure.It would be a great thing for the New York Central and Pennsylvania, the Baltimore and Ohio, the Chesapeake and Ohio and all the rest of them.\u201d MR.WILSON\u2019S VIEWS.Eugene M.Wilson, Democratic candidate for Governor, says: \u201c1 think it a very able as well as politic message.Mr.Cleveland has endeavored to secure a treaty by which the difference between Canada and ourselves could be settled and he expected, in addition to this, to make arrangements to settle such other complications as might arise.A Republican Senate has seen fit to reject the treaty and all that was left to Mr.Cleveland was to ask for ' power to adopt retaliatory measures.There is nothing in his message to disturb the peace between the two countries.It simply asks that Congress give him the power to adopt some measures as Canada now uses toward us.\u201c1 don\u2019t see how those Republican Senators who have complained that Mr.Cleveland\u2019s policy was too tame and conciliatory can now object to his present proposition.I don\u2019t think the measure would affect the business interests of the Northwest, as I don\u2019t think it would ever be necessary to enforce these measures, as the Canadian Government will see the position they are in and endeaver to do right.\u201d ee Panic Caused by

FALL, A General Coolly Announces His Pare pose to Rebel and Then Does So.WASHINGTON, August 25.\u2014The Department of State has received a report from United States Consul Gautier, dated the 13th instant, in regard to the recent revolution in Cape Haytien, in which eight arrondissements, headed by General Telemache, took up arms against President Salomon and forced him to leave the country.He says that on Saturday, Auz.4, the consular corps were invited to call at tLe Mairie, and on doing so General Telemache addressed them in regard to tbe proposed revolution.He spoke of the illegal and arbitrary acts of President Salomon, his violation of the constitution, his arrest of Senators and other eminent citizens, keeping them in prison during his pleasure for mouths and years with- cut granting them a trial; his wasting of the people\u2019s money, allowing his favorite to squander hundreds of thousands of dollars annually : his having a numbar of innocent men shot, &c.General Tele- mache said he had served President Salomon faithfully, and to recompose his devotion the President had sent for him to go to Port au Prince, but he had refused to do so because his friends ther had told him he would be imprisoned on his arrival.General Telemache also said he felt that by continuing in the service of such a chief he assumed a certain share of the odium which marked his administration, and he considered it his duty to his country and to his manhood to assist in bringing about a new order of things.He thereupon announced that he would take up arms the following day and would fire alarm guns when he did 80.\u201c He added that he had convened the consuls of the different nations to assure them that the interests of foreigners and natives would be alike protected and that no disorder would occur in the city.The Consul says that order and security reign at Cape Haytien, and that were it not for the soldiers and the armed men on the street it would hardly be credited that they are in the midst of a revolution.The State Department has also been informed that the Haytian government has made an appropriation of $250,000 for the benefit of the sufferers by the late fire in that island.The money will be paid in four installments by a commission appointed for that purpose.\u2014e.THE AFFAIRS OF PERU, The Message of the President of Peru to The Congress of That Nation.Panama, Aug.16, 1888.\u2014Previous to the opening of the Peruvian Congress, on the 28th of July, elections were held for presiding officers.Senor Manuel Con- damo was elected President of the Senate and Dr.Manuel Maria del Valle, recently Minister of Peru to Bolivia, President of the Chamber of Deputies.The President opened Congress in person and read Lis message.The President announces that the most amicable relations exist between Peru and all foreign nations, and that the object aimed at is to strengthen especially the amity and good feeling so necessary between the countries on this continent, and to this effect he bas re-established legations in the United States and the Argentine Republic, where these overtures have been warmly reccived.But throughout the message an undisgzuised regret is apparent regarding the financial oullook, .The President is eloquent in congratulating the Republic on the maintenance of internal tranquillity ; since his accession to power no attempt at disturbance worthy of consideration has taken place.le emphatically declares that any such endeavors will be met by the employment of all the force at his command.The people are wearied with bloodshed\u2014the terrible lessons taught by the Caceres\u2019 revolution being tco apparent in the ruined towns in the interior through which his conscripts passed, and the lack of men and animals to-day.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Central American Notes.PANAMA, August 16.\u2014Nine per cent.per annum is now the discount rate in Guatemala, and only a fraction over that for coffee

influence, would take advantage of it in a sense hostile to Germany.On the contrary, it 18 highly probable that.he would rather avoid sacrificing his bigh position to the uncertain chances of war.With

Cleveland\u2019s attention on arbitration in preference to war.He replied to us very strongly in favor of arbitration, so I do not think he advocates retaliatory measures, for commercial retaliation is commercial war.It would not do for me tosay much about a matter which certainly has very considerable reference to your presidential election.A war of commercial retaliation would cause suffering

Since our last the Bank rate has been advanced to 3 per cent., dnd the working rates of discount are in consequence correspondingly higher.Three months\u2019 bills are now quoted 2% per cent, and these of six months 3, from which it | appears that thers is a general feeling that the value of money is likely to further increase as the year advances.The generaliy inferior harvest in Europe, ard the freedom with which investors bave subscribed to foreign loans and enterprises, justify this expectation, This dearer money is against certain high-class securities, and is striking testimony to the opportuncness of the recent issues by the Canadian Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.The 3 per cents.of the former were offered to public tender at a minimum of 92}, and though the amount was as much as four millions sterling, allotment \u201cwas made at 9 and upwards.The price is now about 94, owing to sales by money-market applicants.The Canadian newspapers who complained that the issue was in excess or advance of actual requirements, may take the above facts as proving that if the loan had to he offered now it would not fetch 93.Much the same reflections siould be made upon the issue of tha three millions sterling of Canadian Pacific 34 per cent.land-grant bonds.They were offered at 95, and because speculators rushed the price up to 4 and 5 premium it was at once assumed in several quarters that par or thereabouts might have been atte mpt- ed.The present price of the bonds is 97 \u2014not par, and the tendency is downwards because speculative holders are desirous of selling on the dearer money.Such a prompt confirmation as this of the wisdom of the price of issue shoull make the critics of a few weeks back step out of the ranks of financial judges.Apart from these two points the market for Canadian securities has been almost featureless.Canadian Pacific issues have been better under the influence of the barvest prospects, and Grand Trunk stocks have been tolerably steady.Cara- quet bonds are 4 lower.Land shares Lave gone back a traction.\u2018The following are the prices of the leading Canadian securities, with the movements which have taken place in them and others of less importance during the past week :\u2014 Price.Rise Fall Canada 5 per cents, .,.119 1 .e Ditto 3} percents.105} .Ditto 3 per cents.94 British Columbia4{4 per cents, 112 Manitoba 5 per cents, 15-5-6.110 Quebec Province 4 per cents.1025 Montreal 5 per cents, 1879.109 _ Quebec City 6 p.c., 1875.118 1 Ditto 6 p.c., I87B.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.122 _ Toronto 4 per cents.\u2026.\u2026.103 Winnipeg 5 per cents.10 \u2026l Atlantic and North-West LI ER EE 109 Canadian Pacific Shares (New , York register).59§ 3 .Dito shares (London regis- .EI) eireniinenine toninnnnans # Ditto tirst mortgage bonds,.108;

as long as the new issues are guaranteed by gold bonds of the State nothing can be urged against the impending avalanche of paper.\u201c Monetary aifairs are still in the same nnsettled condition, the gold premium jumping up and down in violent fluctuations.Heavy shipments of gold are expected to arrive from Engiand next month, principally for the Provincial Bank on account of the loan launched in the Berlin market.With the prospects of further increase in the issue of paper money all over the country, there are but very dim and distant hopes of returning to specie payments for years to come.A very favorable season, however is dawning cn the Plate.\u201d >ogt\u2014 BRITISH TRADE WITH CANADA.Appended are our usual figures, com piled 1rom the Board of Trade returns, of the trade between the United Kingdom and Canada during the month and seven months ended the 31st ult.Dealing in the first place with the exporis from the United Kingdom to the Dominion, we have a total for the month of £394,456, being £68,294, or 11-48 per cent., less than in the month of July last year, while for the seven months to date the total was £3,064,123, showing a decrease of £358,- 549, or 1541 per cent.The value of the horses shipped was £3,001 more than in the corresponding morth of 1887.Spirits showed an increase of £318, but in salt there was a failing off of £1,751, and wool decreased £111.With regard to manufactured or partly manufactured goods, jute piece goods were responsible tor an expansion of £3,474, silk £313, articles partly made of silk £599, and hardware and cutlery £455; but in cotton piece goods there was a decrease of £11,798, in linen piece goods £9,740, in ribbons £449, in woollen fabrics £4,336, in worsted fabrics £26,205, and 1n carpets £3,249, The exports of pig iron last month were £3,277 larger than those in July last year, while in bars thers was an increase of £6,213, in hoop and sheets £1,605, and in cast and wrought iron £5,102, but railroad showed a reduction of £24,025, tin plates £6,973, steel £2,077, lead £728, and unwyrought tin £1,703.As regards machinery there was an increase of £460 in steam engines, and £156 in other descriptions.An expausion was shown in appsrel and slops, cement, writing and other paper, and stationary (other than paper); but in haberdasnery, alkali, earthen and china ware, and seed ell, there was a decrease.Turning to the other side of the ac- ccunt, viz, to the imports from Canada to the United Kingdom, the aggregate for the month was £1,275,935, showing a decrease of £357,003, or 20°38 per cent.while for thie seven months the total was £2,460,111, being £551,287, or 1830 per cent., less than for the corresponding period.Of oxen and bulls the arrivals 1 July were £42,051 below the value in he same month last year, cows also showing a decrease ot £7,800, and sheep and lambs £2,984, The imports of wheat and gflour were again small, the former showing a reduction of £185,406 aud the latter of £44,257.Of cheese and butter also the arrivals were under those in July last year, but of fish rather more came to hand.\u2018lhe lumber trade was less active, the imports of hewn wood being responsible for a reduction of £25,538, and those of sawn timber £355,255.EXPORTS TO CANADA.seven months endeu July.1357.1338.Animals\u2014Xorses.ÉT3/530 £35,839 Articles of food and drink\u2014 Salt, rock and white.82,621 31.393 Spirits.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.0.000s200000s 28,041 26,618 Raw materials\u2014Wool.9,579 4,618 Articles wholly and partly manufactured\u2014 Cotton piece goods.2,7 Jute piece goods.S81 Linen pices goods.34170 \\!

hence sales are limited to local requirements.Notwithstanding this, a fairly satiefactory clearance has Leen made.There were some very choice lots of Irish grass-fed cattle on offer this week, and these indicate that the grass.fed stock from that country \u201cis likely to come better than for some years.Foreign supplies for the week consisted of clese upon 1,200 Canadian cattle, among which were some of the best grass- fed bullocks that have yet come, these making as high as £26, many lots making from £18 to £21.In addition to thesa there were several hundred of really choice, well-bred bullocks, adapted for short keep, which were forced to be sold for slaughter on account of the demand being limited, by restrictions, from counties which in an essantial degree require store stock.A considerable number of these, however, went into Ross-shire, Kincardineshire, and to Lothians, prices for stockers ranging from £9 to £15 10s.There were few Danish cattle on offer.Store cattle are still selling at high prices, although the trade this week has not been quite so active.Top price of the best Scotch bullocks, 83 3d to 8s 6d;

New GLascow, N.S, Aug.23.\u2014Crop reports from various parts of the Maritime Provinces, more particularly Nova Scotia, are for the most part of a satisfactory character.In soms places the hay crop is light, but on the whole it isqcon- sidered that the crop is an average one.The principal drawback has been the wet weather of the past two weeks, which seriously interfered with hay making and necessitated a good deal of hay being housed in a damaged condition.Still, ag the grain crops are excellent\u2014so far as the straw is concerned, whatever the grain yield may be\u2014it is believed there will bé an abundance of hay and straw for farm animals, which will obviate the necessity of farmers selling any of their stock at a sacrifice, or importing hay from New Brunswick marsh owners.This will be welcome relief to the farming community, as the short hay crop of the paet two years Las been severely felt by many farmers.THE GRAIN CROPS at the present time have a very promising appearance.Straw is heavy, and the aspect of luxuriant fields of oats and wheat is a pleasant sight for the \u201chorny- handed sons of toil.\u201d What is wanted now is dry and warm weather to promote the steady filling and ripening of the grain.1f this desideratum is granted by a kind Providence, Nova Scotia will be able to boast of ons of the finest crops she has bad for years\u2014there will be abundance for man and beast, and the whole business of the province will ieel the stimulating effect of that abundance.Strange, is it not, that while Tory politicians prate about advantages to the country of of high taxation, disguised under the fallacious term protection, the baakers and business men of the country look, not to tariff nostrums, but to the successful labors of the farmers, for the stimulus that is to ward off or minimize depression and give business a healthy revival.The farmers have to shoulder the burdens of protective taxation, and at the same time contribute more than all other ciasses combined to the export trade of the country.They are bearing up manfully under their burdens, though chafing under the injustice of being so unmercifully taxed for the benefit of a handful of pampered monopolists.THE SHORT LINE RAILWAY.Work is being pushed with considerable vigor on the Short Line Railway from Pictou to Oxford, through the counties of Pictou, Colchester and Cumberland This is the line that has done duty for the Tories in two general elections and several bye-elections.First started merely as an eleetion kite by Sir Charles Tupper, transpiring events committed the country to the project bevond possibility of recall, The \u201cGreat Eurepean and North American Railway Company,\u201d under the patronage of Sir Charles, first took up the scheme and made an inglor- 1ous fizzle of it, and the Government had to step in and pay the claims of subcontractors and laborers to the tune of about $150,000.When the last general election came on, Sir Charles discovered that the road wiust be Luilt or Pictou, Colchester and Cumberland would be lost to Toryism.He promptly promised that the line should be built and operated as a Government road, and having saved Sir John from defeat, the Government had no option but to earry out his promise.The line passes through a good agricultural country and through or near the villages of River John, Tatama- gouche, Wallace and Pugwash, and will probably develop considerable local trafiic; but it will necessarily be many years before it will pay working expenses.In addition to this it will divert all traflic for Eastern Nova Scotia, that now goes ri« Truro, from the main line of the lutercolonial.Hence, we have the spectacle of the Government building a line to compete with their own road which does not now pay working expenses by several hundreds of thousands of dollars, Tory statesmanship is a fearful and wonderful thing.The line, when finished, will cost in the neighborhood of two million dollars; and this sum represents what it cost the people of Canada to elect the two Tuprers, McDougald and McLelan in 1887, and to elect Tupper, jr, Dickey and Archibald in 1888.\u2018ory statesmanship is a costly as well as a fearful and wondertul thing.Perhaps the people of Canada will realize by and bye that the honor of having Sir John as Premier, Sir Charles as High Commissioner, and Tupper, jr., a8 a Cabinet Minister, at the behest of Tupper, sr., is being maintained at too great a price\u2014particularly it it is going to cost a two-million dollar railway scheme every few years \u2014 to say nothing of the tribute levied on the people through the exactions of the \u201ccombines.\u201d Yes, Tory Government may be a very admirable thing so far as Tory Politicians and Pets are concerned, but, as the victimized miner remarked of his \u201cexperience,\u201d it \u201ccosts like thunder.\u201d ANTIGONISH AND SHELBURNE, It is generally expected down here that the Minister of Justice will accept the late Justice Henry\u2019s place on the bench of the Supreme Court of Canada ; and that opinion is strengthed by Mr.Thompson's reserved and non-committal replies when questioned on the subject.His appointment to the Supreme Court will make a vacancy for the Commons in Antigonish and the County will be car- tied by the Liberals.Even the Minister of Justice himeelf, with the aid of Bishop Cameron, could nos now carry the County for the Government.only a lavish display of boodle saved ths Constituency to the Government at the general election.In Shelburne, where Geaeral Laurie will certainly be unseated, if not disqualified, the Liberals are ready for the contest ; and it is pretty safe to say that Shelburne\u2019s next representative in the House of Commons will be a Liberal.The Liberal candidate will be either Hon.[Lomas Johnson, à member of the Local Legislature, or Mr.Austin Locke, of Lockeport, and leading Tories frankly admit that either gentleweu will carry the county.TORY METIIODS.At the election in Colchester last week Swe anxiety was caused in the Tory \u2018amp by the refusal of Acadia Iron Mires voters to go to the polis.With the exception ot those who voted for Eaton and Fulton, few went to the polls sill the afiernoon.It has since transpire 1 that tlie men held back and refused to Vote till they got a specific promise of an advance in their pay.Whether tha in- \u201cTeased pay is to cone out-of the coffers of the Company, out of the Dominion Treasury, or out of the pockets of the ory managers in Colchester, is the quertion demanding solution.It is pratt.Sule to say that the Tory mavagers ia Cilehester will not foot tlie bill\u2014they ars Bot built that way\u2014and if the Company 18 called on to redeem the electioneeriny Premise, it will find some way vf recoup- \u2014\u2014 mas td tt EEE ing itself out of the pockets of the taxpayers ; otherwise the right band of Toryism has lost its cunning.BLUENOSE.CLANSMEN GATHER, \u2014\u2014ec In the Shady Groves of St.Helens Isle And hold High Carnival, Montreal Galedonian Society Annual Sports and Games.The Caledonian Society\u2019s pic-nic and games came oil at the Island on Saturday.The weather, which in the moruing promised to be fine, became later on, cloudy and threatening.Frequent show- e158 during the afternoon made things lively, or, more correctly speaking, wet, for the spectators.The attendance however was large, the games all that could be desired, and, despite the wet a most pleasant day was spent, There wero, besides the ordinary class of spectators, a number of distinguished visitors on the grounds, among whom were Sir Donald A- Smith, Mr.Champagne, M.P.P., Lieut.Cols.Mattice and Caverhuli, Mr.Iindlay, President, St.Andrews tociety at Cornwall, Capt.McLean and cflicers of the steamship Concordia ; Me, J.J.Curran, Q.C, M.P.; Mr.Denis Barry, president St.Patrick\u2019s Society ; Mr.W.D.Stroud, representing St.George's Society, and many others.The different events were well contested, and showed that Scotchmen in Canada have not deteriorated when it comes to a question of atheletics.Fully 3,000 people were on the grounds, and it speaks well for the management of Sergeant McAllister, who was in charge of the police, and it speaks fully as well for the orderly character of the spectators, when it is stated that there was not the slightest evidence of disorder in any Way, shape, or manner throughout the entire day.The following is a LIST OF THE GAMES, prizes, and winners :\u2014 1.Quoits\u2014Ist prize, $ 0, William Todd ;

WILL BE, WILL BE.Although President Cleveland's mosi- age to Congress may have been, aud probably was, a campaign move, the course of events, in the tura which he has given them, is a thinz which no one can entirely control, and therefora one which no one can foretell.Thè m>ssage appears to be one scarcely worthy of President Cleveland, and is 8» inconsistent with his utterancss concerning the treaty, that it can only ba understood by supposing that he thought it necessary to ostentatiously deprive himself of personal individuality, and pose simply as the chief of an executive waiting tn carry out the desires of the legislators.His manner of assuming this position is, of course, due to party requirements in the current Presidential elaction.It an- fortunately happens that an aggressive attitude to Great Britain or Canada pleases a very large number of people in the United States, and these who possess more \u2014sanse are 80 indifferent about it that they permit apostles of blatherskite to have their own way.The spectacle of men lika Mr.Cleveland descending to the level of tle congressional tail-twister, or a boss of the Fenian element in New York or Chicago, is one that is necessarily disagreeable, but it shows to what an extent the politicians of United States are owued and controlled by men at whom in private they are not slow to sneer.Assuming that the legislation now asked for ia passed, and the retaliation bill of 1857 brought into oieration these two with the withdrawal of Canada\u2019s bonded privileges, which we suppose will follow, will make the {erce of non-intercoursa sufliciently pig tight to rovolutionizs the cowmerce of Canada.It will do a great deal of wischief to many interests both in \u2018Canada and the United States, but to some parts of Canada it will not be an unmixed evil.Its chief effacts for ill, wil be felt in the West, and tha people of Ontario, Manitoba and the Northwest Territories will doubtless curse their owa idol who has brought this thing upon them.told the Dominion Govercment that they were making a mistake in their attitude towards the Americans, on the Eastern coasts.The refusal to allow them to ship their fish across Nova Scotia was a petty restriction to enforce, while mutual bonding arrangements existad over all the other part of the two nations, and the introduction of the Customs Department to do that which was the proper duty of the Fisheries Minister was a huge mistake.The Customs may har- rass, insult and annoy the merchants of Canada who submit to it with a patience that Job would have considered exemplary, but it was folly to suppose that the Americans, who owe Mr.Bowell and Sir Jobn no allegiance, would be equally docile.The irritating and exas;erating conduct of the Government in the Maritime Provinces has created such a sentiment in the United States that this so-called retaliation process becomes possible.Tha Americans would have made no objection to their vessels being seized for illegal fishing, but they resented the saizure of a vessel because some native of the Province had been permitted Logo ashore, or some captain had allowed some washing to be landed, and so on.Indeed, there were cases when it was stoutly protested that the systematic annoyance by the Customs\u2014not the fisheries cruisers \u2014bad gone to the length of absolute inhumanity.We cannot vouch for this, but it was publicly stated, and repeated, and we have never seen it denied.If, therefore, this interruption and inconvenience to our business comes about, we shall have no one in the world to thank for it but Sir John Macdonald, and the Customs Dapart- meit.Nevertheless, if it comes, we must make the best of it.We have a railway to tlie seaboard, summer or winter, This must be put in effective order, and under different and better management.The Intercolonial Raiiway will at once assume an impcriance hitherto unknown to it, and will at last begin to pay its expenses.The ports of Halifax and St.John will do such Canadian busivess as hss hitherto been done at Toridand, Boston, and Now Yerk, and we presume an impets will be given t> the censiruction of the Hud- sors l ay l\u2018uiiway auid the Saut Canal, Tue Herarp has time and again which will, in the event alluded to, bs built without further delay.The eTsc: jof the proposed legislation, taken with that of 1857, will be in fact to benefit the ports of Montreal, Halifax, St.John, and generally | to increase the business activity of tusir | districts, while inconveniencing Ontario, | and, of course, seriously damaging one \"of our large railways, the Grani Traak, : whose Chicago and New Eaglanl bisi- ness will be in a great measure cut off.; The C.P.R.will be affected on thsir \u2018 Sault Ste.Marie connection, and their short line, but they will on the other + hand acquire a large amouat of businss | now done from New York, Boston ani ! Portland.It will largely benefit our im- * portant steamship lines and the basiness that has hitherto been done by steam- | ship lines to Portland, Boston and New i York will if the policy advised is carriel ! out have to be done by the Si Lawrence | and in Canadian steamships.It will lead to more direct trade between Great | Britain and Canada, and if the people of the country insist on à return to a rav- enue tariff instead of the ridiculous and infamous national piracy of the present time, there will be s>mething to the side of profit as well as of loss.And it may be a step towards that which would be of still greater benefit to Canada, both by facilitating trade and removing ill-fesliny with a a neighbor, viz, unrestricted reciprocity witi tue United States.The absurdity of two nations of the same language, origin and history, largely sprung from the same ancestors, and actuated by sentiments common to both, and lying alongside one another, passinz laws to stop commercial intercourse with ons anothet is too glaring to long defy the common sense of the two peoples.DOGUS OR NOT BOGUS.The Gazette is angry, very angry, at the suggestion that was made by a correspondent of Tue Herarp throwing doubt upon the authenticity of its alleged London begotten cablegrams.Aud in its an rer; its very vicious auger: it accus2s Tme Hrrarn; we who as it wera defended, or excused the Gazelle, or at least expressed the hope that it was not generating falss- hood, but bad only been deceived by the Tory financiers in London ; and says we ; have \u201c demeaned \u201d oursalf, and goolness ; knows what.And it has such qualms of conscience about that which it has so often published as Telegraphic News, i but which was nothing of the kind, that it feels constrained to unbosom iteelf to the public and tall all about its cables which our correspondent, who has | known the Gazette for a good many years, I said were bogus.The Guzctie says they are not bogus, and that it pays more for \"its telegrams than Tae TeraLD does, and | that it has an attractive feature aboat it, ! and that we ought to retract our insinuation, &c., &e., &c.Now before retracting anything we would take sweet counsel with our neighbour.We do not know, nor do we care, w bat 1t pays for its telegrams or cablegrams, or even whether these latter are | what they profess to be; neither does ; the Gazette know what Tur HERALD pays.So that its computation of the expenditure of the two is silly and probably entirely incorrect.But even were it true that the Gazette pays so much as seemingly to cause it anxiety it should remember that it owes the public muh.Freely it has received of the public money for less than public services.In the money chests which have been filled for the public service, both in the Pro- .vince of Quebec and in the Dominion of Canada, it bas plunged its arms elbow deep.For years it has fattened on the public taxes.The surplus of its profits even when two or three prices only had been paid would from one contract of one Government alone have paid all its telegraph bills.Not fourteen, nor ten prices even, would have been necessary; a small percentage of the public money that has been Leaped upon it would have done this.Not that we should begrudge it any money that it might fairly earn, but to acquire these bountiful gifts from the public purse, it has defended every scandal, denied every charge, approved every iniquity, changed with every change of its m oney-dispans- ing patrons, without an atom of consider ation for those whose hard earned money was ratiling in its pockets.If it paid the telegraphic bills of all the newspapers in Montreal and so aided in giving the public the latest news of the day it would still be making but a poor return for all the public provender it has consumed.And in the matter of the cablegrams our neighboar must consider.It says that the doubt expressed by our correspondent, who certainly pratty clearly implied that they were concocted in the Guzetle office, is not sustained by the facts of the case.But unfortunately here is whera the difficulty arises.Our neighbour has so shatterad any reputation it may once have had for observance of verity: that ne man can now tell \u201c When he is to give it credence.The very strength of its asseveration serves to accentuate the doubt of its statement., It has advanced the theory that when | party exigencies demand a falsehood, the truth mustgo to the wall, and it has reduced its theory to practice with re- | markable regularity.How then are we, | how is anyone, to know whether the i statement that these alleged cablegrams | are not fabrications of the Gazette office, © is, or is not, born of party exigencies.| Assuredly they are the most partizan | publications that were ever .published | since they do not even spare the cradit ! of the province in the desire to injure a politicol opponent.There is, therefora, much suspicion, at least about the matter, for it 18 reasonable to hops no journal would have bcrne itself towards Mr.Mercier as the Gaz-lte has done without the rulers of the narty Laving required tho unwhol:soms ssr- vice.Our neighbour, conscious of the suspicion which its evil habit bas brought upon it, offers to let us satisfy ourselves that these cablegrams were concocted in London, not fabricated in the Gazcite oftice.This device, which is nct new, is unnecessary.Some psoplè may say of the Gazette\u2019s cables, as Bstsy Prigg said of Mrs.Harris, that * there ain\u2019t no sich a pusson,\u201d but unlike them we will accept the Gazette\u2019s statement.We said in the article complained of that we hoped, trusted or believel that the Gazeite\u2019s head rather than its heart was at fault in ths matter of thess cablegrams, and we cheerfully accept the theory that its columns have baen uscd by a parcel of London stockjobbar moved by the agents of the small band of plotters who reside on this side of the ocean.We are filled with charity, a3 it will be seen for our neighbour, and forgive, although we do not quite forget it3 naughty references to this journal.PRESSURE FROM THE STOCK EXCHANGE.The Canadian Guzetie, which is a species of journalistic vocation, the principal motive power of which may ba guessed at by an examination of its last five pages, and wbich voices the views of the Canadian Tory party in London, and such nortion of the London Stock Exchange as is allied with them; bas spoken and declares that Sir John must veto the Quebec Act for the conversion of the debt.It recommends such pressure being brought \u201c t > bear apon the \u201c Dominion Executive as will effectually \u201c prevent\u201d what it terms an \u201ciniquitous \u201c piece of legislation finding placs on tho \u2018\u201c\u2018etatute-book.\u201d We have no doubt if the pressure suggested is applied Sir John will do as he is told, but Canadians may be excused if they ask, how much longer is this kind of thing to last, anlis this pressure from one side and the other to continue until all vestige of self-government is squeezad out of us?Sir John signed the first Washington treaty in 1871 despite the remonstrances of his colleagues under pressure from London; Sir Charles Tupper conceded ali that was required at Washington in 1887, under pressure from Mr.Chamberlain and Lord Salisbury; the customs duties on fruits and trees which Sir John and Mr.Thompson declared must end would be ratained were abandoned under pressure from Washington, and now we see a group of financiers In London preparing to exercise pressure to obtain the disallowance of an act of which they disapprove.The only kind of pressure at which Sir John snaps his fingers, is that which the suffering public of Canada attempt to exercise with a view of freeing themselves from the monopolists and combinists that are preying upon them.How far the peopls.of Canada Will relish this government by the Loodon Stock Exchange remains to be seen.If we are to be ruled aud governed in local matters from Tondon, we might as well go back to the position of a crown colony.THE WIITE CAPS.There is a society in Indiana called the \u201c White Caps\u201d which resamble the post- bellum organization so well known as the \u201c Ku-Klux-Klan.\u201d When the White Caps first appeared or rather when their operations were first spoken of, there was a disposition to wink at their lawless proceedings because it was supposed they were intent on harrassing only the rough characters of their neighbourhood whom the law failed to reach.But they have been joined by others having less worthy ends and have become a terror to the State.Sometimes they warn their intended victims, giving them a chance of leaving the place or at least of mending their manners, but frequently they dispense with this and barbarously flog those who have offended them.Women seem to be as little respected by them as men, and they send their resolutions and commands to,certain newspapers ordering publication of them under penalty of a visit.The society is the resuit of the wretched condition into which the administration had fallen, and if the allegations of the White Caps concerning judges, sheriffs, juries and others are true, the law in some parts ot Indiana must be a farce.But not even Indiana can corsent to allow an irresponsible | body of men to nsurp the duties and functions of the law, particularly when their methods are so inhuman and the wraaking of private vengeance has become mixed up with the desire to punish evil-doers.GOLD AT BUCKINGHAM.The recent discovery of gold at Back- ingham, and within a few miles of the C.D.R.R,, is but one additional evidence of the future before dur country in the line of mineral wealth.It is not quite ten vears since the first development of the phosphate mines in that section of country ; aud to-day English, American and Canadian capital has been expended and resulted in the development of the richest phosphate industry in the world.Last week two pits in the \u201c High Rock mines \u201d produced 72 tons of 80 per cent.phospuate of lime in one day, and at preeent, after being operated for over five years, these very mines are more pr.- ductive than ever.This certainly dozs not look much like the old idea, that phosphates only existed in superficial pockets.\u2018The North Star Company is now operating a splendid shaft 650 feet down and producing larce quantities of first-class material.Formerly England and various parts of Europe were the chief markets for the rale of phosphates, To-day we find it is making its way into contres such as Chicago, Milwaukee, &c, and being used to pive increased fertility to the wcru-out wheat produciug fields of the \u201c dinner last evening.western country.Our phosphate industry is only in its infancy, and we predict for it a great fature and evident source cf wealth to our country.The recent find of gold so near the phosphate belt is quite a new feature, and, like other new discoveries, will doubtless be carefully looked into in all its mineral aspects.In Buckingham there is quite a stir, and thes who are interested in this find of mineral will anxiously await the result of the various tests now being made by experts.Ir it is true that \u201cdecency Lacomas a Dutchman,\u201d alittle modesty would not be unbecoming to the Tory orzan of this city.It rails at us because we prefer to take as our authority on Quebec securities the London Iconomist, the principal financial paper of England, rather than tlie assertions that are printed in the Gazette as being from its own correspondent, or tlie correspondent of whieh it has a share, in London.In the first place a number of peopls doubt these statements having come from Landoa at all, and if they did the animus of the Gazette's articles on the grestion is so well understocd and the inspiration on the other side 80 well known that they are not of any value.Yes, it is quite true that on subjects connected with the London money market wo prefer the authority of the London ZLconomist to that of the Gazette, even if we have to wait a few days for it.The Feonomist is nat controlled by Canadian Tories, nor is it engaged in à crusade azxsinst Mr, Mercier.WHAT OTHERS SAY.SEEKING SAFETY., Hon.Mr.Thompson, Minister of Justice, on being questioned in Ottawa whether be will accept a seat on the Supreme Court Bench, declined to say anything on the subject.This is a tolerably fair indication that he contemplates such a step.\u2014 London Advertiser, USELESS EMIGRANTS.The worst feature, however, of the immigration to this country, as at present conducted, is the arrival of parties, guided by clergymen, of young lads from the middle class in the cities of the old country.\u2018These have noi the physical strength for farming, nor the endurance necessary to undergo its discomtort.Yet several hundreds of such lads have already been brought here.If they hal the strength of purpose, which comes ! fram maturity, they might stili suzcesd, but they are too young to have much firmness of will.Great misery seems to be in store for many of them, unless they ges back to the large cities, whi:h ara their natural habitat, and where they may be employed in offices ani st res.What is wanted to remedy sach evils is an intelligent sysiem of government supervision.left in the hands of well-meaning but uu- informed and impractical clergy men; and kind-hearted but ignoraut women \u2014 Manitoba 1'ree Press, COAL AND TIIE COMBINE, The price of coal was advansed yesterday by the coal barons.Every poor consumer compelled to buy it by the pailful must now pay more for this necessary of life.The price may, and probably will, be raised again.That ilustrates what a trast may do.The combines control the market, and may raise the price at will.They have every consumer in tleir power; may exact money from the poorest classes to enrich themselves, They also control production and the employment of minors.They may by a mere wave of the hand drive thousands of wage earners into idleness.This is what Mr.Blaine considers a private affair, with which the Govera- ment has nothing to do.This view will doubtless meet the approval of grasping monopolists and capitalists, but the people, the masses, will repudiate it.\u2014.V, Y.Herald, - AS SIR JOBR VIEWS IT.The Great Retalintor Does Not Approye of Retaliation.(Special 1o the New York Herald.) Sypxey, CB.August 24.\u2014Sir John Macdonald received his first intimation of the President's message while at He was very much surpriged, and suspended his meal while be read, in a long personal despatch from Ottawa, what Mr.Cleveland proposed to Congress.Canada\u2019s Premier refused to be interviewed last night, but this morning he , said that he bad not read the complete text of the President\u2019s message to Con- The work should nat be | : the tone of the mess ENGLISH OPINION.eed \u2014 What the London Press Think of the Retaliation Message.(By the Commercial Cable to the New York Herald, Aug.24.) Blaine\u2019s emissaries are here collecting statistics showing the great attachment the British have for President Cleveland were bothered this afternoon on reading two sharp attacks on Lim in two leading tory evening papers.In the course of a bitter editorial où the fisheries the St.James\u2019 Gazette observes : \u201cSuddenly, while every one is in an unsuspecting frame of ming, Mr.Cleveland launches his bolt from the blue, and the last position of the difficulty instantly bacomes worse than the first.The position is exceedingly awkward and unpleasant for both countries, and the retaliatory measures which are threatened by the Presiden- tiai message are so absolutely illogical and unr asonable that it is difficult to understand what ae their precise cause and meaning.ATTRIBUTED TO POLITICAL MOTIVES, \u201c But before very iong a President wil\u2019 have to be chosen, and Mr.Cleveland and his political friends are anxious that he should be returned to office.Now, if the President can see his way materially to increase his chances of re-electfon by playing at a game which has always immensely tickled our American cousins\u2014 the twisting of the lion's tail, to wit\u2014it is perhaps not to be expected that he should hesitate to twist it by any consideration for the lion's feelings.The object is to provide an elegant curl upon which patriotic Americans may gaze with complacent pride, in intervals listening to the defiant shrieks of the Western eagle.That is one nossible explanation of the mesggge.Another is thay Mr.Cleveland \u2014always, of course, with an indirect eye to tlie ballot boxes\u2014may be trying what is known in America as a \u201c\u201c blutl.\u201d ANOTHER TORY ORGAN.The Globe says: \u201cWe fail to understand why President Cleveland\u2014a generally just man\u2014should seek to puuish the Canadians for an act committed by the Washington Senate.Is he, too, playing to the gallery ?Has the value of the Irish vote in the Presideutial contest tempted him to make a Lid for it?The surmise may look uncharitable, but we see no other explanation that fits in with the surrounding circumstances.\u201d ENGLAND OUGHT TO IIAVE BEEN CONSULTED, The Morning Post thinks that the comity of natious demanded that an invitation be sent to England to reconsider the matter before proceeding further, It deprecates President Cleveland\u2019s action, refuses to believe that the majority of Americans desire to act in an unfriendly spirit, and trusts that the majority of the representatives will indorse the view that the talk of reprisals is premature.THE POLITICAL SIDE IN ENGLAND, TOO.The Daily News says: \u2014* Things are bad enough, but not so bad as to justify the faintest breathing of a rumor of war.Lord Salisbury mainly is responsible for the result in having sent Mr.Chamberlain to America.\u201d The Standard obserpes: \u201cWhat makes oho all the more remarkable is that President Cleveland does not give himseif the smallest trouble to conceal or dissemble the fact it was the United States Senats and not the Government of ths Dominion which rejected so resolutely his diplomatic efforts.It is hardly* necessary to point out that this measure must be very injurious to tbe commercial interests of : The large traffic which passes | Canada.over the Canadian Pacitic Railway into the United Staces will be stopped, aud the growing trade between Japan and the | eastern parts of the Dominion seriously gress, as it has not all been published \u2019 here yet.: \u201c What effect will the new move have onthe action of Canada regarding Americans now tishing in Canadian waters under modus vivendi licenses ?\u201d \u201cI do not know until the Cabinet in council decides whether we should recall all the licenses or not.Personally I am in favor of allowing them to run for the year which the fishermen have paid for.\u201d \u201cWill the Dominion not retaliate in any way ?\u201d * Retaliate !\u201d repeated Sir John; \u201cretaliate! What does that mean?To return evil for evil, does it not?\u201d \u201c But\u2019 changing his tone, \u201cI don't know what we shall do regarding the President's request to Congress.It seems to me that the American people would Jook better in the eyes of the world if, instead ot retaliating (with a peculiar emphasis on the word), they should make Jaws for the good of their country.\u201d HE HATES RETALIATION, \u201cIt is very small business, this retaliation ; a literal meaning of the phrase would be \u2018cutting off one\u2019s nose to spite one\u2019s face.It illustrates to my mind more forcibly than ever before the wonderful and monstrous pitfalls which American politics will lead a man into.\u201cIt is nothing more or less than an exigency arising, not out of the relations of the United States with Canada and Canadians, but from the peculiar conditions of the two great political parties there, and their respective determinations, expressed in actions, not words, that no matter how much the pecple are harmed, how foolish the conntry may appear in the minds of thinking people, or what the consequences may be, this or that party is guing to have its own way andelect its candidate by appealing to prejudice.\u201cThe party which makes the boldest moves will reap the richest reward at the polls.\u201d 1 Sir Jobu spoke with much spirit, and thouph net angry, seemed very much put cut at what Le considered entiroly a political dodge.He would not talk about the terms of the messa:e.Ha will, thengh, cut his visit to the Mari time Provinces short and retura to Otra- wu it (nee, where a conneil of the Cabl- ret wild leleld to consider tue mutter, crippled.For a portion of the year the heart of the Dominion is cut off [rom trade by direct intercourse wit2 Europe.Nature, closing the St, Lawrence by ice, makes it almost imperative that Canadian exports and imports shoull pus; through United States territury.Now York, in fact, is one of the Crua lian seaports, and without it the manufactnrsra and merchants of the colony wou'd find themselves, for a time, at least, in a bad way.The conclusion of the message is in harmony with the rest of this curious State paper.It ends by the assertion that the Government does only half its duty when it permits citizens to be imposed upon and humiliated by the overreaching disposition of otiuer nations.\u2018But which nation ?\u201d we may weli ask.It seems to us he has rendered it impossible for him to urge any such accusaio1 against this country.\u201d TIIE LIBERALS\u2019 ORGAN, The Daily News remarks :\u2014* President Cleveland lets the Republican Senators know that if they want an aggressive policy they shall have it with a vengeance.The Senate, he says, have refused to co-operate with him in an effort to settle the dispute.We in this country may be well pleased enough with the assurance that he has put the Repubiican Senators in a hole ; but, after all, the one important fact for us is that the interna- tionai question is not settled ; that it is more unsettled than it ever was before ; that business is disturbed, that the relations between this country and Auneri- ca are strained ; that the relations between Canada and America ary more strained still, and that an uncomfortable new departure will have to be made.\u2019 THE ARISTOCRATIC VIEW.The aristocratic Morning Post cries :\u2014 \u201cIt seems as if the exigencies of his position as candidate for re-election to the Presidency had urged Mr.Cleveland to play the part of advocate hastily.That the President, who authorized the negotiations shoud be the first person to initiate new difficulties is certainly surprising.We cannot but deprecate the csition assigned to matters affecting the ritish Empire by President Clevelaud.It may suit the forthcoming ticket at the Presidential election to make this question a test of party, but this method of treating them puts a strain upon Englishmen generally.\u201cTHE THUNDERER\u2019S \u2019 SOLEMN VIEWS.The Times, while saying that the message is a clever move on the political board, says: \u201cThe President cannot be acquitted of personal inconsistency in the course he nas taken, which was in no sense obligatory upon him, however.The President\u2019s mes- ssçe is, in any case, preposterous.If he was not bound by the vote of the Senate, he was gratuitously inconsistent with Lis previous attitnde.If he was bound, we have tbe ludicrons spectacle of the United States flying into a passion over their own rejection of the treaty, as if the grievance were not ours rather than their's.\u201d The ediicorial concludes: \u2014* The only cousclation is that a few months may bring anc ther revolution of the wheel, and either disclose President Cleveland or General Harrison welcoming the J THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL.GAZETTE.MONDAY.AUGUST 27.despised treaty with a few colorable modifications.\u201d RADICAL PAPERS SAY LITTE.Pall Mall Gazette suspentis opinion u The ne real significance of Mr.Cleveland\u2019s message, but says it looks ugly.The Star (TL.P.O'Connor\u2019s paper) says it bas no fear of a war over the matter, but is of the opinion that serious friction is certain to result.ESS ) MARRIED.A 5 \u2014 i in St.\" ERAILD\u2014SPECK.\u2014In this city, Bartholomew's Churel, on the 25th inst, by the Right Rev.Bishop Ussuer, P.M.Fils gerald to Amelia C.Speck.5 DIED.souarr\u2014At the Hospital of St.John the pasa ican sister=\u2014Toronto, on tho evening of the 18th inst, Henriet a = sousty, wite of J.C.Gough, of Port Arthur, ane voungest daughter of the late Henry orte , Esy.0: St.Johu, N.B.205 The Advertisinx Departimeut of The Herald\u201d is under the charge of Mr.Joscpn Mitchell.NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.Carsley\u2019s Advertisement.Monday, August 27th, 18:8.Our European Buyer has just arrived.OUR STOCK OF LADIES\u2019 HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADS\u2019 HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES\u2019 HONKRY OUR STOCK O+ LADIES HuslERY OUR STUCK OF LaDikw HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES H +~IERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES\u2019 HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES HOSIERY GUR STOCK OF LADIeS HOSIERY OUR STOCK OF LADIES HOSIMRY OUR STOCK Oi LADIES\u2019 HOSIERY 11 you want a really handsome Jersey at low \u201cprices we would recommend our Indy friends 10 visit $.Carsley, Who is just now opening some of the choicest goods shown in the city.\u2014 Post WILL BE FOUND WILL BE FOUND WILL BE FOUND WILL BE FOUND WILL BIE FOUND WILL Bl FOUND WILL BE FOUND WILL BK FOUND \u2018WILL BE FOUND WILL BE FOUND WILL BE FOUND WiLL BE FOUND MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL MOHKE COMPLETE THIS FALL MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL MORE COMPLETE TiS FALL MORE COMPLETE THI8 FALL MORE COMPLE MORE COMPLE\u2019 MORE COMPLETE TH.S FALL MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL MORE COMPLETE THIS FALL THAN IN ANY PAST THAN IN AXY PA-I SE THAN IN ANY PAST SE THAN Jie ANY PAST SKASON THAN IN ANY PAST SEASON THAN IN ANY PAST SILASON & CARSBRY 85, CARSEEY S.CARSLEY S.CARSLEY 5, CARSDEY S.CARSLEY VSE CLAPPERTON'S THREAD USE CLAPPERTONS THREAD URE CH'AFPEKTON'S THREAD USE CLAPPERTUN'S THREAD Use the best thread and take no ota~r;

London Man-About-Town.Mud, fcg, misery and gloom pervaded Jermyn street one day, not long ago, when tbe Honorable Percy Thorpe went to the windows of his chambers and Jooked abroad.He had risen and bathed, and a voluminous robe of Turkish toweling enveloped his gaunt figure.His eyes were bloodshot, his throat was parched.; \u2019 ; «J feel,\u201d he said, as he sat regarding me frem a rootny chair near the fire, «like the man whom the ancients prate about.\u201d \u201cWho?\u201d .\u201cA London man.I speak of the ar- - cients because the story is, I belleve, ra- {Ler old, though the theme is new.The bero wes à tiveur, à hard liver, a heavy drinker\u2014in à word, a London man in the bilari« us acceptation of the word.\u201d Here tl'e Hunorable Per:y Thorpe fell into a violent fit of coughing, from which Le rescued himself with a flushed face a1d streaming eyes by a corking drink of raw brandy.It made me shudder to look at it-und I\u2019ve been in Chicago cluls.; * A friend knocked,\u201d continued Thorpe, \u201ca, d ]ii8 servant opened the door.\u201d \u2018Jp y our viaëter up ?\u201d\u2019 asked the caller.«Up, sir?Well, really, sir, \u2019E got up, sir, Orai k his bawtL and went t, bed spair, sir?\u201d .I laugtied at the story.It was habit.I bad Javgled at it so often in England that it vas really no effort.The Hon, \u201cThorpe, «> bis servant cailed Lim col A LITTLE SEEDY BEFORE BREAKFAST.loquially, them proceeded to point the moral of his little anecdote after the fashion of Englishmen all over the world.\u201cAnd so,\u201d he said, \u201cI feel as though I could drink my bath.\u201d To emphasize it, he took another appalling swig of brandy, and shoved the decanter toward me with a \u201cDip in.\u201d \u201cThanks,\u201d 1 said.\u201cIt is much too early.\u201d \u201cI thougnt Americans were heavy drinkers *\u201d \u201cThey have the name, but I think they seldom take raw spirits before din- mer\u2014in fact I have never seen such Leavy drinking at home as in England.\u201d * That,\u201d said my host with conven- \u2018tional British polish, \u201c is partly because the Americans are still crude, but mainly onaccount of the ghastly character of your liquors.\u201d He then fell into a solemn consultation with his servant concerning his boots, fiftee n pairs of which were ranged slorg tbe wall of the dressing room.Many of them were on trees, and they were all varnished brightly.lle was a typical London man, a member of a dozen clubs, knew everyboly including a lot of Americans, went everywhere, tut never saw \u201canything worth admiring outside of the limits of his town.\u2019 It was abont noon, and he had just rieen.In the narrow street without were beggars, tramps and mendicants without number.The fog was thick, yellow, pasty and unplessant.Before the door stood a big mail cart with a boy Lolding a team of bays.Mr.Thorps, whom I had met on the occasion of his visit in New York, had written ma very politely the day before explaining that there wouid be a Jot of coaches in Hyde Park the following day, and that he would drive me out there and show me something of London afterwards.Accordingly, I called at his chambers as I was stopping with a friend out in St.John\u2019s Wocod\u2014rather a long drive from his place.Presently, we went out and climbed in\u2018 the mail cart.The Hon.Percy The rpm took the reins, and the horses stared for Hyde Park.My host vas dressed exactly as the upper hundred thousand clubmen are this year at all hours of the day.He wore a frock reat, rather roomy trousers, a beaver has, varnished boots aud drab gaiters.Ilir gloves were red, and there \u201cHow pO PERS!\u201d ¥as a big white carnation in the lapel o° his coat, Incidentally, I may menton, that, like most London men, he had Cighieen or twenty frock suits, which hs Wore on succeeding days.They were Dearly al] of the same pattern.London eI now wear no other style of coat, for fear they will be confounded with busi- Lest men and clerks.Tle fog lifted by the time we arrived a the park, and, just as we got through © gate, a short line of coaches swept Hong in front of jus.There was a tre- Mendous crush of vehicles of all sorts.in pe Were many drags.Our own coaches 1 New York are every bit as well ap- hed a8 these of the famous London The peo;le stared at the Prince of ples, whe sat on the same coach with e arl of Fife.Occasionally ths prince ged his Lat.1fe looked a dumpy, thick- man of fifty-five.Heavy streaks of T2Y Were visible along the under side of 8 beard.lle was round-shouldered, ! and seemed rather seedy.Lord Charles Beresford and Lord Randolph Churchill while 1c amused himself by cutting S's in the air with his whip.At the tail of the jrucession, the Princess of Wales drove by, louking Like a girl of eighteen at a distance, but so bunglingly and -roughly made up when her landau passed us, that I was startled at the crudity of it all.William K.Vanderbilt, with asuit of loose-fitting clothes, stood with his bands in his pockets near a tree, gèz1;g at the throng, and that most placid, serene and equitable of New Yorkers, Mr.Al.Claggett, formed a picture cf tranquility and quiet observation on the opresite side of the drive.I suddenly \u201cdiscovered that we were in an ocean cf vehicles, and, fur two hours around the drive, staring at ratner bony- locking women aud conventionally attired men.Mr.Percy Thorpe\u2019s manner hal not changed since he arcse in the morning.In fact, in the course of a somewhat extended acquaintance with him, I found viewed life, London, and everything appertaining to the two with profound, natural and unpretentious indflerence.He seldom smiled, and was always equitable, if a bit pompous.He drove me heme and at 7.50 we went to his club for dinner.\"The dining room was long and low.The table service would have graced the palace of a prince of the blood, and the waiters were admirable.Perhaps ten men were dining there, bat nearly all dired alove.They bowed to one another, Lut nothing was Leard but the occasional clash vf à dish as the waiter moved about.be glocin of all London was intensi- fled by the dismal and heavy air ot the club dining room.A wan of tine phy- sue with a perfectly bald pate strolled up to our table when we were half through dinner, stock his glass in his eye, and looked steadfastly at my host.1 thought at first that he was going to run a knife into the Honorable Lercy Therpe\u2019s throat and leave it there; but, just before things arrived at this stage, ihe newcomer dropped his glass from lis eye aud said: \u201cHow do, Pers?\u201d \u201c Srale,\u201d was the answer.\u2018\u201c Seen the matter ?\u2019, \u201cNo.You?\u201d \u201cNot since she returned from Leices- tershire.\u201d A lcng pause.\u201cGhastiy,\u201d said the other.\u2019 Ther, with a slight wave of his hand, and a formal bow of apology to me, ap- rasently for the interruption, he wandered over, sauk into a chair on the opposite sice of the dining room, and drank Lait agoblet of iced absinthe at a gulp.\u201cThat's the heir,\u201d said the Hon, Percy, jerking his head toward the conversa- ticnalist.Then I krew that I had been listening toa live lord, aad the son of a famous car! into the bargain.And, speaking of conversation, by the way, I was amazed to find in England, that tlie real swells, the men of title and pesiticn, speak without a trace of what is known asthe English accent.Isaw alot «f them at the Smith-Kilrain and other prize fights and at similar society events, and fourd them to be the most amiable, good-natured and approachable of men, ard, above all, astonishingly free of the English men of title.1 could name a dozen .r tweniy men with elaborate handles to their names to whom I talked, and who spoke, in every respect, as well-bred Americans do.I'he men who say \u201ccawn\u2019t,\u201d \u201cshawn\u2019t,\u201d and \u201cdeah old chappie\u201d and all that, are bad actors, or the second-claes imitators of the real type of the genus swell.Frem the club we went to the Gaiety Theatre, but it was slow, ard half an hour later the Hon.Percy Thorpe wok me to the Empire, perhaps as gorgeous a AT THE BOHEE.of amusement as can be found in the world.On the stage was a variety show including a numper of people whom I had seen in America.1n the boxes, women of more or less respectability, sat behind the curtains and gazed abroad.In the balconies and in the lobbies paraded endless streams of women, painted, and powdered clumsily and thickly.In the slang of the town they are \u201ctotties,\u201d and London makes the worst exhibit of them of any city in the world.Among this horde of hundreds and hundreds of women, walked the young snobs, who supposed they were seeing life because they chattered and joked in a heavy British way with the women of the town.It was about as amusing to me as a chunk of mud, and, as the Hon.Percy Thorpe was similarly bred, we went to the Continental Hotel to supper.It isthe night place of Lordon.Actresses and women who claim to be such as a mask to another calling, sat about the different tables with charms liberally revealed by the lowest of dresses and the shortest of sleeves.They were accompanied by a vast number of heavy and dissipated looking clubmen, who drank brandy and whiskey, while the women took champagne.There were a great many American actresses of a certain stamp, and among them several New York men.The air was stifling and hot, and, at twelve o'clock, the proprietors began to put the people out.In leaving the place we met Nat Goodwin and Arthur Roberts\u2014the latter is the cleverest comedian in England\u2014on the sidewalk, and they lugged us off to a club known as the Bohee.There is not à lord in London, by the way, who does not feel flattered if he can win his way into the presence of a crack comedian, Thorpe smiled for the first time that day, as we went to a distinctively all- night London resort.The fog had settled into a dreary drizzle long before this.The heat of the theatres and the Continental had dragged me down, so that I felt in anything but a jolly frame of mind, and the interminable heaviness of everything English weighed on me as it always does on an American for the first week or so that he is in London.No one smiles, everything is stupid, top- weighted and stolid from the air of the drove coaclies.Beresford held a team of .fiery bays with one hand, well down, \u2018 thereafter, we moved at a snail's pace that such a thing as» chavgein his man- : ner was an absolute impossibility, He \u201cMucky, isn\u2019t it\u201d said the Hon.Percy.| accer.t that we invariably attribute to ! place | - \u2018 ee ee streets to the talk of the brightest of the men.The Bohee consisted of small tables, easy chairs, pallid men, interminable drinks, cigarette and cigar smoke, music, shady actresses, noise, disorder and riot.Gooawin just agreed to play for Roberts\u2019 benefit the following week, and they began torehearse then and there.They decided to come out dressed up as American Indians, and play an act from the Corsican Brothers.They were to meet in the middle of the stage, shake hands and then Roberts was to exclaim with Intense force : \u201c Who are you ?\u201d \u201cNat Goodwin.\u201d \u201cWhere from ?\u201d \u201cNew York.\u201d \u201cCan you act ?\u201d \u201c Of Corsican.\u201d Upon this they were both to fall backwards upon the stage, then rise, and, without à word, retire in different directions from the stage.FLOCAI, NEWS.\u2014 rr Go

Thousand Young Liberals Give the Hon.Mr.Mercier a \u2018\u201c\u201c Send Off\u201d The Quebec Gate Depot presented an animated scene yesterday afternoon, the occasion being the departure of the Hon.Premier Mercier for Quebec.To wish him bon voyage a gathering of fully three thousand young French Liberals assembled, among them some of the leading lights of the party.Before the train drew out of the station Mr.Horace Boisseau, of the firm of Boisseau Bros, approached the Premier, and read the following address :\u2014 To the Hon.II.Mercier, Prime Minister of the Province of Quebec : BoONORABLE Srr\u2014Your friends of Montreal have thought it proper on this occasion to come and greet you on your departure for Quebec.For a long time they have had serious misgivings as to your health, Having learned that it is now much improved they desire to say to you that the good news has given them much satisfaction.This spontaneous demonstration of young men, organized by themselves, if wrong we trust you will not too severely censure, as it springs from the purest intentions, Knowing that aiter some days of rest\u2014a bundred times merited\u2014 you would return to your laborous duties, we come to tell you with ali heartfelt sincerity, \u201cCount upon us.\u201d \u2018The sacred interests cf the Province and the national cause are in your hands and we are firmly convinced, they will be safely guarded.We beg to assure you of our ¢steern, respect and the unlimited confidence of those who you have conducted to victory and who are with you in heart ard soul despite any events that may be passing.Signed LES JEUNES NATIONAUX DE MONTREAL.THE REPLY, Mr.Mercier, in 1eplying, spoke as fallows: GENTLEMEN, \u2014Having only been informed at the last mument of your intention to present me with an address, L have not bad time to prepars a suitable reply and I must content myself with cordially thanking yeu for this sympathetic and spoutaneous demonstration.However, I feel it necessary to refer in a few words to a subject which appears to have been misunderstood and of which different versions have been written.Isee that vou understaud the position and that you accept the situation which events brought abont.Here is the position I laid down as the Tanguet of the Club Natioual ut the Windsor Hotel on the 10th April last.Here were the words I then spoke :\u2014 \u201c\u2018 And moreover I must declare that whilst favorable to political Liberalism moderate and confined within the limits laid down by the dectors, whom I have just eited, we respect and will know how to defend, if need be, those (Conservative principles which are necessary for the tranquility of the State and the happiness of families, and we cnergetic- ally repudiate all those dangerous doctrines which threaten sockal order, convuls: conscience and society, cxpel Gol from the schools and only beget impious and revolutionary men.** I have often said and I will again repeat it to-pight, with the full assent of the Liberals who now surreundims=: that wwe victory of the Mh of October, 1833, was not a Liberal victory, but a Naticnal victory, and that the present Gover ment, the legitimate consequence of that viewry, has been, is still and shall, as long as I remain its leader, be a National Governwent, relyin, with conna- ence upon the honest men of both parties, vindicating the honor of the Provine: and defending 1ts interests, hea ing the wounds inflicted on it by previous governments, forgetting the fratiie:dal contests of the past and seeking for the support of all men of good will, without distincrion of race, party or re- Vegous belref, in order Lo consolidate our in- siitution-anu to jucpa:e our country for the reaizalion of th: giand destiny which the near tutu e epcti= Gut to our people,\u201d There words were accepted at that time 88 the expression of our political sitaa- tion, and thers is no reason to modify tLem.They areas true to-day as they were yesterday and as they shall re main.Letus remain true to these principles and to tle alliance made on the Champ des Mars the 22nd of November, 1655, and ratified by the pesple at the jolls the 14th of Octuber, 1856, and sanctioned by the members of the Legislative Assembly the 27th of January, 1887.1see that you are of my opinion on this point, and I congratulate you and thank you.I algo thank you inthe nama of the Province and in the name of the National party.Let us respect and have respected this alliance; it was by it we have triumplied, and it is by it alone that We can remain in power.DEATH OF SIR JOHN ROSE.The sudden death of Sir John Rose is announced by cable.He fell dead while deer-stalking in Scotland on Saturday.He was born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, on

President of the United States, who defeated Blaine and who now is the unanimous choice for a second term, is an able man or be would not have filled the positions I have recapitulated, the last of which is perhaps the greatest honor to him.His administration negotiated a treaty which was considered fair and just to both England and the United States, and a settlement of the difliculties affecting the fisheries, which had in late years led to the seizure of American fishing vessels and other severe measures, that sorely tried the patience and put to test the good\u2019 will of the people occupying the neighboring States to Canada.Fatr minded people will concede that to refuse Americans the right to send their fish in bond by rail through Canada from a maritime port of the Dominion to the United States is a hard thing to bear when Canada is carrying goods the value of forty millions a year to and from their provinces through the United States paying customs, besides the great through trafic to and from the United States through Canada in boud.All this is for the benefit of Canadian people and their transportation rates.It gives employment to the people of Canada, and the work consumes their goods on which they have levied customs duties.Probably the duty on coal alone, imported from the United States, would amount to a million dollars a year used in the means employed to carry this American bonded freight.Yet while we are benefiting in this way, while our rail and water routes bave been built up, maintained, enlarged and profited in every way by this free intercourse, with the least pussible restriction, our Government have been harras- sing American commerce by discriminating tolls in passing through our canals.The American people are not always friends to Canada and Great Britain.The executive of the United States Government is chosen Ly a popular vote every four years, and 18 expected to be a reflex of popular sentiment.Now, many of the sixty millions of Americars are Irishmen who have left their homes with embittered feelings against England ?And are things whica are happening in Jreland now likely to make them more concilliatory at the results of a treaty negotiated by a Tory Government and Mr.Chamberlain?Will they support a President unless he takes action to obtain concessions?I Lave lately found out that the doings of England during the American war, the® Kidell and Mason affair, the refusal of loans which led to specie payment being stopped, the Alabama and other things are fresh in the minds of the people who observe decoration day to decorates the graves and keep green the memories of the killed in the war.They consider England responsible not only for sym- putby, but for material aid in the time of the great contlict, aud that it caused many a life to be sacrificed, and embittered teelings still exist against a nation from whom they expected to receive encouragement instead of lending assistance against a cause which has triumphed in freedom.Tne gelection of a President is taking place in à couple of mouths, aud itis well kuown that Mr.Blaine and the Republican ledders are stumping the country, decrying Mr.Cleveland for truckling to English commerce and free trads pein- ciples.However untrue this may b3, it is a great factor in the contest tor the tims being.The United States Senate which rejected the fishery treaty because it is the eve of a presidential election, has a slight majority of Republican members, two was the number which threw out the treaty.It is constantly reminding the President that he does nothing to bring Canada to terms.Is it human nature for the President to continue silent when retaliation is urged whether intentional of execution or not?It 18 tbe tenate which has thrown on him the responsibility.He has already the power to cripple Canada by the stoppage otf the bonding system, but he hesitates and throws back on Congress the respon- #ibility of forcing him to take the initiative of measures to bring us to terms\u2014 without a treaty\u2014to let American fish be bonded through Canada, and to make the tolls alike to Americans and Canadians.This is not much for what we already get.And although Mr.Cleveland may not contemplate at present interfering with the passage of goods through Canada from one part of the United States to another without paying duty whew re-entering the States, yet if we do not concede the small things he now complains of, having entered upon re- taliation\u2014in respect to foreign goods\u2014 may not the demands grow greater as the war progresses.I do not mean that there will be any bloody conflict, but it may be a thin end of the wedge inthe preventing of foreign goods passing through the United States in bond, that may lead to larger terms to extort greater things than fish in bond or canal tolls Mr.Cleveland\u2019s message is a statesman\u2014like document that reminds you of old Democratic state papers and like the \u201cFreedmans\u2019 Bureau\u201d mes sage of Andrew Johnson, does not tira you to read it through.It gives you a clear insight into the subject from Lis standpoint and makes you well acquainted with the facts.1f 1 remember rightly the Retal:- ation measures which are law have been almost unanimously passed and the speech of Senator Sherman yesterday, who was one of the leading candidates for the presidency looks as though the Republicans were not going to be out- witled but may give the President more owers and then will come the measure of is discretion, to inflict the greatest harm on us with the least loss to the United States.If it is restricted to foreign commerce we have our own railway\u2014 however remote\u2014money which the Government can concede in a low tariff over the Intercolonial\u2014can annihilate space and make that line which was builtas a military road, a usef factor in politics aud diplomacy.It ha been loss enough to the Dominion, an it will be a good thing if it can be of great service now.It isunfortunate tha Canada should be made the butt in the American presidentizl contest.When the Unitea States entered on the war in 1861 they did not dream that slavery » would be abelished.If the pressure which may be brought now should ulti- \u2014 \u2014 THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, MONDAY.AOGUST 27 mately learn our people that could they late free commercial \u2018ntercourse for the «hole continent, with liberty to fish, perhaps this\u2019 incident may not be without benefit in sweeping away unnatural barriers which are only to my mind a personal benefit to politicians and malti- plied office-holders, and which lead to great burdens being laid upon the people at large.Really the distinctions of nationality are only a matter of sentiment ard of little moment when the happiness and prosperity ¢f the whole people of a continent are concerned, and their general good will promoted.Who amongst us thinks it a hardship to improve his material prosperity by living in Boston, New York, or elsewhere across the border, or would hesitate because he was an Englishmen, an Irishman, or a Scotchman, tc do so.COSMOPOLITAN.Dear HEraLD,\u2014 As you doubtless would like to hear how business is going on in Miramichi, I have dropped you a few lines to post your valuable paper up, as it is read bere with

East Elgin have invited Erastus Wiman, of Now York, t address them on the subject of Unrestricted Reciprocity, at Port Stanley, on 4th September next.The following correspondence will explain the character of the proposed meeting : Union, August 17, 1888.Mr, Erastus Wiman, New York.Srr:\u2014 I send you a verbatim copy of resolutions passed to-day at the Meeting of East lgin Farmers Institute Committee: \u201cMoved by E.Steele, seconded by ME.Lyon, that the president of the East Eigin Farmers Institute be instructed th arrange for a \u2018 Harvest Hume Pic-Nic) to be held at Port Stanley, on or about the 1st of September next, and that an invitation te extended to Mr.Wiman of New York, to epeak upon Enlarged Commercial Relations with the United States.\u201d In sending vou the foregoins, permit me to say thst the question of enlarged trade relations with the United States is the west interesting subject which has occupied the attention of our p2ovte fur many years.The possibility of an in (rea£ed demand, at more proftabls prices, for the product of our faring, brings the question howe to this agrical- tural comirunity with peculiar force.The hope that many article: necessary to tl:e farmer could be cheapenel by the free exchange of American manufactures fcr what we have got to sell, imparts great attention to the proposed removal of all trade restrictions between the two ccuntries\u2014situated so closely together, and having so many interests in common.With this in mind, it is not to be wondered at that our thinking people continue to discuss and inquire into this matter.Somewhat unfortunately for its freest discussion, a political tings has been given to it of late; and, by the adoption of the plank of unrestricted reciprocity in the platform of the Liberal party, many of our people who ara on the other side of politics, and have been lifelong Conservatives, are placed in a position that is more or less embarrassing.While they might, as the result of inquiry and discussion, entirely favor the treest intercourse with the United States, and gladly avail themselves of the advan- 1ages of an enlarged market and cheaper supplies, yet if they advocate this measure they seem disloyal to their party, and are charged with disloyalty to their country.It would seem, therefore, as if the progress of this movement was in danger of being seriously injured, tiret, because of Want of information, and, second, because of the embarragsments of party ties, which really ought to have nothirg to do with a question of such universal importance, and affecting both sides of politics alike.Under such circurastances, Mr.Wi- man, the Farmers Institute of East Elzin approach you in the hope of having you address them on tbe subject.It seems as if a time had been reached when subjects of vast importance to everyone of us might be investigated without party influence for or against it; that as reasonable, sensible men, we might inquire ard think for ourselves before being forced into conclusions for or against any suhject, by the action of either one side or the other of politics.With this view, we would like to have you come amongst us, and at a meeting specially convened for the purpose, made up of all parties, give us the benefit of your own large observation and careful thought, on the question of relations between the two countries.The subject is one which has occupied largely of your time and ability, and your position in regard to it, both in Canada and in the United States, is such that the subject can be discussed without any pelitical significance whatever.Yew men have had opportunities such as you have had for a thorough mastery of the subject; few occupy such a position so entirely separated from political prejudice, and very few of those who have left this country Lave shown the patriotic pride which you have evinced in the greatness of your nat've land.Because of this.we respectfully urge the acceptance of our invitation to speak to us, for though we will not pr.mise you to pass any resolutions, or hold out to you any expectation that we will Children Crv for Pitc agree with all that you may say, we will certainly afford you a hearty welcomes, and endeavor to show you our appreciation of the spirit which prompts you in this matter, and our admiration for the careor which, a8 a native Canadian, you have achieved amongst our neighbors on the other side of the line.The occasion upon which we would like you to address us is at a Harvest.Home Picnic, irrespective of party, to be held at Port Stanley, on Tuesday, 4th September, 1888.An early answer will oblige, B.F.Harnway, President East Elgin Farmers\u2019 Institute.Union, Ont., August 18th, 1888.314 Broadway, New York, August 23, 1387.B.F.Hathaway, Esq., Union, Elgin Co., Ontario., Dear Sir, \u2014I am in racsipt oË your letter in which, on behalt of the Farmers\u2019 Institute of East Elgin, you invite ms to address a Harvest Home Picnic at Port Stanley, on Tuesday, 4th September next.on the subject of closer commercial relations between the United States and Canada.; The terms of tbe invitation epecifically state that your people desire to have this question discussed, on this occasion, aside from all political bias, assuming that independent investigation and discussion of « matter of so much vital interest to your community is not to be interfered with, because leaders of either political party choose eithar to adopt iv or reject it ag a party cry.The position your Instituty thus o-ca- pies must commend itself to thoughtful minds, and might, with great advantage, be imitation by every farmers\u2019 orgauiza- tion throughout the Dominion.Tha interests of the farmers are paramount to all others.Not only is the commercial fabric of the entire community dep-ad- ent upon the farmers\u2019 condition, but their power may be made controlling in the policy of the country.No party cin ex.1st without their steady support.If they show an intelligent independence in the investigation of their own wants, the politicians will follow like a drove of sheep.It is already shown that the farmer need not wait for a general election to bave his beliests agreed to.Already, within a year, one great political party bas been changed from a position of apathy and negation, to a policy of agres- give action in the professel interest of the farmer.Unless all signs fail, it will need only another year of genuine expression of public sentiment to convert the leaders of the other party to even more anxiety in his behalf.The farmers themselves are the best judges of what will tend to the promotion of their own interests.They can best discover what will promote these by careful inquiry and dispassionate discussion.If they desire to inquire into what will be the stupendous consequences of breaking down the barrier of the freest commercial intercourse between the Enz- lish-speaking nations on the continent of North Auierica, they should be entitled to do so without fear of offending any poiitical power.If, in the pursuit of this Information, they discover that their own individual and personal interest is largely concerned in this discussion, it is more than ever important that they should thoroughly un ierstand the question.If the comiort of their homes, the happiness of their wives, and the future of their children ary all involved to a great extent in this matter of a freer market in which to sell, and a larger market in which to buy, the subject is one that in duty bound they must completely apprehend.That thay should be preveuted from thoroughly discussing a question of such universal personal interest, except from a party point of view, would be a grievous error; and, that apy political significance should be attached to meetings held to obtain information on this question would be most unfortunate.Hence, the example which yonr Institute sets of independent investigation, aside from all political considerations, is imnst important, und I feel myself ;reatiy honored that you shouidask me to address you under such direnmstances.I an grateful for the opportunity which your thoughtful independence of party lines provides.It is ditlienit to kesp silent while fo much is oeutrrins in this country ot such deep and abiting interest to Canada It is eana'iv difficult for ma to take sides in any political stragzls in the Dominion.Ifin the past it has bean my good fortune, on more than ons oc- cagicn, from the peculiarity of my posi- tien here, to render service to the Government of my native land, 1t is more than likely that, in this direction, opportunities will again offer in the anost portentous events that now impend in the relu- tions between the two countries.Under the circumstances your invitation to attend a non-political gathering of farmers to discuss these matters is most gratifying, and with great pleasure I accept the same.Faithfully yours, Erastus WiMAN.This correspondence passed apparently some days before the Presidents message.(Ed.Herarp).MATTERS ECCLESIASTICAL.Recent Changes in (he Diocese of

but still it was a blessed sight\u2014 a very hlessed sight?\u201cWill you be seated, gentlemen?\u201d he said with much dignity.They ct eyed.\u201c And xiow, Meeson, I suppose that you bave explained to my brother she matter on which you require my advi.e?\u201d \u201cNo, 1 baven*t\u201d said Eustace; \u201cI thought I might as well explain it to you both togetner, eh 2\u201d \u201cHuw,\u201d said James; \u201cit is not quite regular.According to the etiquette of the professiun to which I have tus honor to belong, it is not customary that matters should be so dealt with.It is usual that papers should be presented; but that I wis) overlook, as the point appears to be pressing.\u201d \u201cThat's rigkt,\u201d said Eustace.\u201cWell, 1 have come to see about a wiil.\u201d \u201cSo l understand,\u201d said James;

\u201cand is the Jaw so helpless that probate which has been allowed to issue under an erroneous apprehension of the facts cannot be recalled?Most certainly not!

it's impossible !\u201d \u201cImpossible or not, it must Le done before any further steps are taken.Let me see; 1 believe that Dr.Probate is the sitting Registrar at Somerset Ilouse this sittings.It would be well if you made an appointment for to-morrow.\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d sald John.\u201cWell,\u201d went on James, \u201cI think that is all for the present.You will, of course, let me have the instructions and other papers with all possible speed.I suppose that cther counsel besides myself will be ultimately retained ?\u201d \u201cOh! that reminds me,\u201d said Eustace; \u201cabout money, you know.1 don\u2019t quite see how I am going to pay for all this game.I have got about ffty pounds spare cash in the world, and that\u2019s all; and I know enough to be aware that fifty pounds do not go far in a lawsuit.\u2019 Blankly Jemes looked at John and John at James.This was very trying.\u201c ¥ifty pounds will go a good way in out-of-pocket fees,\u201d suggested James, at length, rubbing his bald head with his handkerchief.\u201c Poesibly,\u201d answered John, pettishly ; \u2018but how about the remuneration of the plaintiil\u2019s legal advisers?Can't you\u201d \u2014 addressing Eustace\u2014\u201cmanage to et the money from someone ?\u201d \u201cWell\u201d said Eustace, \u201cthere\u2019s Lady Holmhurst.Perhaps if I offered to share the spoil with her, if there was any.\u201d \u201cDear the, no,\u201d said John; \u201cthat would be \u2018maintenance.\u2019 \u201d \u201cCertainly not,\u201d chimed in James, holding up bis hand in dismay.\u201cMost clearly it would be * Champerty\u2019; and did it come to the knowledge of the Court, nobody can say what might not happen.\u201d \u201cIndeed,\u201d answered Eustace, with a sigh, \u201cI don\u2019t quite know what you mean, but I seem to have said something very wrong.The odds on a handicap are child's play to understand beside this law,\u201d he added sadly.\u201cIt is obvious, James,\u201d said John, that \u201cputting aside other matters, this would prove, independent of pecuniary reward, a most interesting case for you to conduct.\u201d \u201cThat is so, John,\u201d replied James; \u201cbut as you must be well aware, the etiquette of my profession will not allow 1ae to conduct a case for nothing.Upon that point, above all others, «tiquette rules us with a rod of iron.The stymach of the bar, collective and iudividual, is re- vclted and scandalized at the idea of one of its members doing anything for nothing.\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d put in Eustace, \u201c I have always understood they were regular nailers.\u201d \u201c Quite so, my dear James; quite so,\u201d said John, with a sweet smile.\u201c À fes must be marked upon the briefof learned counsel, and that fee be paid to him, together with many other smalier fees; tor learned counsel is like the cigarette- boxes and new-fashioned weizhing- machines at the stations: he does not work unless you drop something down him.But there is nothing to prevent learned counsel from returning that fee, and all the little fees.Indeed, James, you will see that this practice is common amongst the most eminent of your profession, when, for instance, they require au advertisement or which to pay a delicate compliment to a constituency.What do they do then?They wait till they find £500 marked upon a brief, and then resign their fee.Why should you not do the same in this case, in your own interest?Of course, if we win the cause, the other side or the estate will pay the costs; and if we lose, you will at least have had the advantage, the priceless advantage, of a unique advertisement \u201d \u201cVery well, John; let it be so,\u2019 said James, with Magnanimity.\u201cYour check for fees will be duly returned; but it must be understood tuat they are to be presented.\u201d \u201cNot at the bank,\u201d said John, hastily.\u201cI have recently had to oblige a client,\u201d he added by way of explanation to Eustace, \u201cand my balance is rather low.\u201d \u201c No,\u201d said James;

DENVER, Colorado, Aug.22, 1838, A few months ago I had occasion to look up the condition of the furniture trade in Denver, and found to my great surprige that the figures were largely in excess of what I had supposed them to be.In the matter of furniture alone, I learned from conversation with leading dealers of Denver that the business of the trade amounted to $2,500,000 during the twelve months ended June 30, 1888.In addition to this may be added another half million of dollars representing refrigerators, meat safes, screen doors, and wooden ware; and yet another like sum for carriage and waggon wood wars, doors, and window sashes and frames.All of these goods came from Eastern factories, and freight was paid upon them at rates varying from $1.50 to $2 per cwt.Some of the furniture reached here in finished condition ready for immediate sale; but the greater portion of these goods were received in a rough condition, the woods being shaped and formed, but not finished ; and for convenience and cheapness of transportation, the parts were un- assembled.I found also that it was oftentimes a matter of some diiliculty to secure an article constructed of wood that had been manufactured in the East,which would wear well in the Rocky Mountain region or in the plains.The atmosphere here is so much dryer than in the East, and unless the wood is SEASONED IN THIS CLIMATE, it dees not wear, I had an interview with the head of one of the largest farm implement houses in the West.Said the gentleman in response to my enquiry :\u2014 \u201cQur trade in wagons and farm tools and appliances is very large.Denvey supplies an immense territory, embracing Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and New Mexico.Our goods are all Eastern made.\u201d \u201c Why do you not handle home-made gcods ?\u201d I asked.\u201cThere are none,\u201d he replied.\u201c Lumber is not to be had here at a price that would warrant manufacturing.\u201d Last Monday I was conversing with a farmer residing in Elbert county.Said Le.\u201c1 would willingly pay twenty-five dollars more for a farin wagon that was made here than for one made in the east.\u201d *\u201c Why, are not the eastern ones well made ?\u201d I asked.\u201c Oh, yes, they are well enough made, but our dry climate soon pulls them to pieces, because in a majority of cases the wood is kiln-dried, and, anyway, wood seasoned in the east does not wear well here.\u201d The same strictures apply t) furniture and all wooden ware.1 remember, during a railroad trip, a most pleasant couversation l had with Professor Sargent, who did most of the forestry work for the last census.Very many of the western papers had been uttering well-timed remonstrances against the shameful waste of timber going on in this country.I had quoted the stitamant of Professor Rothrock, that tits 1s not a timbered continent, only 164 per cent.of the whole area remaining in timber.This is within 1} per cent.of the condition when a nation begins to experience a dearth of timber.and climatic changes begin.Lrof.Sargent did not take such a dark view of the matter.Said he: \u201cThe greatest lumber hope of this conniry in the future is in the South.The pine forests of New England and New York have disappeared, and Pennsylvania is stripped of what once seemed to be an inexhaustible supply of lumber.The West will keep on increasing the volume of its production for à few years longer, in response to the growing demand of the great agricultural population which is fast covering the treeless continental plains, but the South must he depended upon to supply the future for all kinds of umber.\u201d \u201cThe South has for some time exported pine,\u201d I remarked.\u201cThe fact that the South principally exported pine,\u201d said the Professor, * has caused a mistaken idea to become current that pine was the only timber it possessed in any considerable quantity.in reality, however, it has hard woods of ali kinds, and timber needed for the manufacture of furniture, wagons, wood- enware, in fact all varieties of timber needed for commercial purposes.Louisiana Cypress and Southern gam have now a recognized value.\u201d Now after my talks with Colorado people, the remarks of Prof.Sargent recurred with pertinancy.Soutbern timber lands embraces over one hundred millions acres.Vas it not accessible ?Within the past few month$ à great trunk line of railway has been opened up, connecting the Rocky Mountain regions with the Gulf of Mexico.I have been carefully examining the facilities and capabilities of this new pan handle route, and I find that it reaches the finest timber producing portions of the South.Pine, poplar, oak and elm, and the wonderful enduring hardwoods of Central America are all reached by this new road and I am warranted in saying that they can be, any of them, laid down in Denver, at cheaper prices than they could be purchased in Milwaukee or Chicago, the rate from New Orleans to Denver being 40 cents per cwt, less than one-third the rate from the East.Walnut can be had in unlimited quantity, and of a quality that stands our climate superior to the Eastern growth.I bave gathered together these few facts and ligures at some considerable trouble and cost.Everybody out here seems to be making such excellent profits upon their investments in real estate and mercantile business that they appear to be content to \u201cpay the freight\u2019 on tke manufactured goods they consume.Not being a \u2018\u201cresident\u201d myself I have not yet acquired such complacency, and to me it seems that here is an un- paralelled opportunity for profitable engagement in manufacturing.To sum up: A practically unlimited market is here\u2014a demand which must increase instead of diminishing.The people prefer wooden goods made here, their preference being enforced by the climate.The vast expense of freight would be saved.The lumber can be had here of the best quality and at cheap prices.Fuel is abundant, of easy access and cbeaj \u2014sixty cents per tun in Denver.Manutacturing would pay better here Children Crv for Pitc her's Castoria.This area of.\u2014\u2014\u2014 aw

workman.The healthfulness of the climate maintains the workman.There is no time lost by sickness, Wages are no higher here than in the East, but the workman makes more money taking the year around, for he has no lost time.Those who are possessed of wisdom enough to appreciate the facts I have given, and able to command the necessary capital to begin work with, will surely find that a success awaits them which will eclipse any similar enterprise elsewhere.F.M.CLARKE, NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.Department of Crown Lands.WOODS AND FORESTS.QUEBEC, August 9, 1858.Notice is hereby given that,
