Cornwall, Sept.6.\u2014Probably never in the history in Cornwall has the town been thrown into such excitement as at noon today, when three peaceful and law-abiding citizens of Cornwall lay dying at the G.T.R.station, the victims of a revolver in the hands of a cowardly assassin, James Blavin, who committed the terrible deed, ia better known by the name of \u2018 McMahon,\u201d his father and step-mother living in Cornwall.He was brought up in this town, leaving here about five years ago for the Pacific coast.He returned to Cornwall last evening, and meeting several persons with whom fe had formerly been acquainted, brandished a loaded revoiver, and expressed a desire to shoot some one before he left the town.The fact of his having a loaded revolver in his possession did not reach the ears of the police, and those to whom he made the threats treated it as a joke.Yesterday was the occasion of Washburn\u2019s circus in Cornwall, and after the procession, which took place between 10 and 11 o\u2019clock, & large crowd of people had assembled on the grounds which are situated near the G.T.R.station.The crowd was well sprinkled with drunken men, and many free fights took place, the combatants in each case being separated by the spectators, Special Constable John Davey was amongst the crowd doing bis best to keep order, while Slavin was also around with a bottle of whiskey in one pocket and a 38 calibre self- cocking revolver in the other.\u201cMcMahon\u201d got into an altercation with a character known as \u2018Black Diamond\u201d Roach, and a clinch ensued, \u201cMcMahon\u201d drawing Roach to the ground.In the meantime Lafesse, whois a peaceful citizen, interfered and in an instant McMahon\u2019s hand went towards his pocket, from which he whipped out the revolver.The first shot ha fired into the sidewalk, and the second straight at La.fesse\u2019s brest and immediately the spectators who stood around horrified, heard Lafesse cry out: My God! I'm shot! Bend for a doctor! McMahon rushed ttraight up the street, where he met Policeman Dovey, accompanied by Louis Lafaive, and the two latter, who heardfthe shooting, grabbed McMahon, and the three rolled in the ditoh.McMahon, who held on to the revolver, pointed it straight at Davey\u2019s breast and fired, the ball passing through his heart, killing him instantly.A second afterwards he fired in Lafaive\u2019s breast, the ball striking him in the right breast and lodging in the shoulder.A doctor was summoned in the meantime and found Lafaive\u2019s injuries to be of a fatal nature, blood running from him in streams.He was removed to his residence, where he now lies in a low condition.McMahon in the meantime was overpowered by the crowd, and handcuffed by Constable Clarke, who removed him to the cells, and on being searched 23 cartridges were found in his pockets.LDefaive was removed to his house, where his wounds were dressed, and his condition is not considered serious.Dovey\u2019s body was moved to McDonald\u2019s undertaking establishment, where it now lies, Coroner Hamilton having summoned a jury, and an inquest will be held to-night.Mr.Dovey was a member of Cornwall branch C.M.B.A., and leaves a wife and three children.He was a highly respected resident of Cornwall and was major of the 59th Battalion of Stormont, and his untimely death is mourned by all.McMahon will stand his preliminary ex- smination this afternoon, and will at once be removed to the county jail, from where he will be taken to stand hls trial at the autumn assizes.On being seen after his arrest he expressed no sorrow at the crime he committed, only saying that he wished he had killed a few more.A strong feel ing prevails at the North End of the town, and could a hold of the murderer be got he would likely be lynched.He is about 23 years of age, and is suspected of having committed several highway robberies which have taken place in this vicinity within the last few years.NEWS NOTES FROM KINGSTON.9 Vermont Farmers to Settle Three Districts in Prince Albert, [Special to The Herald.[ Kingston, Sept.5.\u2014E.Shaw\u2019s barn, near Marble Rock, was burned last

indignation was expressed by all classes of citizens yesterday over the alleged tearing down of the United States flag at the Queen\u2019s theatre on Monday night.At first this indignation was felt against some hoodlums supposed to have been guilty of the outrage, but when it became nown that the cause of the whole affair was a disgraceful attempt on the part of the manager of the \u201cWhite Squadron\u201d Company to raise an excitement as an advertising dodge the citizens\u2019 anger was turned to a new quarter, and the expression was very generally heard that those guilty of the, outrage, which might disturb the friendly relations between the peoples of the United States and Canada, should be severely dealt with and punished if pun shment was | possible under the cicumstances.Among those loudest in denouncing the disgraceful fake was Mr.Sparrow, the popular proprietor of the Queen\u2019s Theatre.When the news of the incident reached Mr.Sparrow at 11 o'clock yesterday morn- who until wll ing, then was totally unaware of the circumstance, and also the fact that the affair had been made the foundation of the wildest stories sent by unscrupulous correspondents to the United States papers, he was justly indignant at the outrage, and at once telephoned for Detective Grose, of the Canadian Secret Service Agency, and when that officer responded he was instructed by Mr.Sparrow to spare no expense to get at the bottom of the whole affair.Detective Grose lost no time in acting on these instructions, and in a very short while he had discovered the insidedness of the whole disgraceful affair.He at once called on Neil Florence, manager of the White Squadron Company, at his hotel, and on the romise of keeping it private, except to those immediately concerned in the matter, he obtained a letter from Florence, of which the following is a copy: treel.Sept.6, 18% ntreal, Sept.6, 1892- John A.Grose, Manager Canadian Secret Service Detective Agency.Dear Sir:\u2014Regarding the disturbance that took place at the Quecn's Theatre last Monday evening, a part of which was the tearing down of the American flag at the door, 1 beg to make the following statement.The whole of this transaction was donc as an advertisement in connection with the{WhitefSvuadron Company, and entirely devoid of any intention to cause serious troubles of any kind, but as it does seem to have given rise to considerable feeling I am sincerely sorry that the advertising scheme was entered into, and regret very much that thisfoccurrence took place.I make this statement to you of my own free will, and on condition that the Government will not enter any civil or criminal proceedings against myself or any member of my company.NEIL FLORENCE, By the time this statement was in the hands of Detective Grose the incident had assumed a new and such a serious phase, that notwithstanding his promise to Florence he was compelled by circumstances to make the statement of the latter public.Mr.Grose had just returned to his office when he was called for by United States Consul Knapp, who had just received a telegram from the Socretary of State at Washington, who ordered that he sent immediately a full report of the incedant of the tearing down of the America flag.Detective Grose at once put Consul-Gen- eral Knapp in possession of all the facts he had gathered in connection with the case, and received the thanks of Mr.Knapp for his information.Seen last night by a Herald reporter the Consul-General said that he had wired a full report, including Florences statement to Washington, and so far as the American Government is concerned the regretable affair will probably end.Last night it was said the incident would probably lead in the severance of Florence's connection with the White Squadron Company._ MINISTERS ATPETROLEA.Sir John Thompson Speaks ofthe Canal Tolls Trouble.Petrolea, Ont.Sept.6.\u2014The gathering of Conservatives to-day to do honor to Geo.Moncrieff, M.P.for East Lambton, and to meet and welcome different members of the Dominion Cabinet, was a success.At the grove was a vast concourse of people.The representatives of the Cabinet were warmly welcomed, and on the platform were many of the leading Conservatives of both East and West Lambton.Sir John Thompson was the first speaker, and addressed the gathering for half-an-hour.His most important deliverance was that respecting the Government's policy regarding tolls at the Welland canal.He said the Government had violated no treaty; that it was acting within the rights of Canada.For the sake of peace and good neighborhood the Government was, he said, willing to discontinue tolls at the end of present season and that it had gone as far as honorable men or an honorable Government could go.He spoke of the placing of tolls at the Sault St.Marie canal as a measure of wrath by the United States or a temporary irritation.After Thompson came the various other members and local lights, and then the gathering dispersed.The ministers took this evening's special train for Ottawa.QUEBEC EVIDENCE Given Before the Royal Commission on Prohibition.Little Interest Shown by Quebecers In the Matter on the Opening Pay\u2014Interesting Statements Made and Opinions Given bv Several Prominent Public Officials\u2014 Drunkenness on the Decrease in Quebec.{Special to The Herald.} Quebec, Bept.6.\u2014The attendance was very slim at the sitting of the Royal Commission on prohibition in the Parliament buildings to-day.The ouly persons present were the witnesses, ladies representing the temperance 80- cieties, and a strong contingent of the Saivation Army.After the usual formality of reading the commission, the first witness called was Mayor Free- mont, who failed to respond to his name, being in Montreal to atteud the first meeting of the Provincial Board of Health.Mr.Chateauvert, president of the Board of Trade, and Mr, Giroux, president of the Harbor Commissioners Board, were also absent.Dr.A.Vallee, of Laval University, and medical superintendent of Beauport asylum, was therefore the first to give evidence, in the course of which he explained that he held his nomination from the Provincial Government, to whom he reported every year.There were at present, he said, nine hundred and fifty inmates in the asylum, according to last week\u2019s report.À record was kept of the causes which led to insanity in each ease, As a general rule the record was accurate, The asylum belonged to private parties, and the Government paid $250 per patient and exercised control by a medical board, and also by inspectors.There was a resident dcotor paid by the proprietors; there was also a manager appointed by the owners, The proportion ot inebriates at Beauport was small, as no drunkards were admitted there, but sent to a place called Belmont retreat.Very few inebriates were radically cured.Private patients especially did not remain long enough.Of the ordinary patients, as far as he knew, the permanent cures were about fifty per cent.In answer to Judge Mc- Donald, witness said that the record of causes of insanity was reasonably accurate, but the sources of information were not controlled by medical inspection.In answer to Mr.Clarke, he said that there existed no law in this province authorizing magistrates to have drunkards arrested.In answer to Mr.Gigault, he said that there was much drunkenness in France.It was true that in some provinces of France where wine was habitually drunk there were less inebriates, but it was not so in Paris, where wine was expensive, and often falsified.He thought all liquor in this country should be carefully analyzed.Grain alcohol was much more dangerous than wine alcohol.Contraband alcohol, as imported in this country, was very bad.Smuggling was very prevalent at present.If prohibition were decreed he did not think it would be a remedy, but the contrary.Moderate use of stimulants was not dangerous and did not lead to insanity.On the contrary, it was wholesome and even necessary to use them in moderation.He thought it would be a dangerous\u2018 thing to prohibit the importation of wine.The provincial license law worked fairly well.(he number of licenses, however, was far too great'and should be reduced, and laws providing for the punishment of drunkards enacted.In answer to Dr.McLeod, he said that the great majority of insane under his control had never been drinkers at all.Most of them were too poor.Drinking on the part of the parents was a frequent cause of insanity among the children.He did not believe that total prohibition would be to the physical advantage of the community, although immoderate drinking was always injurious.In his opinion the best way to eradicate drunkenness would be a rigid license law, strictly enforced.RECORDER DERY'S STATEMENT.Recorder Dery, of Quebec.was then called.In his experience as City Magistrate, he was familiar with the license law.There was no inspector named by the city.The cases brought before him were by the police.Drunkenness has decreased very much since fifteen years in Quebec.He attributed the diminution of cases of drunkenness to the stringent measures taken to close taverns early.e did not think the increase of license fees had helped to diminish drunkenness, because the number of taverns had not diminished.Nearly all cases of misdemeanor before him were the result of excess of liquor.If all taverns in Quebec were closed there would be much less drunkenness, He thought a prohibitive enactment was desirable.Almost all crimes came from the drink habit, but he did not believe that such a law could be enforced.In answer to Judge McDonald, he said that he had about forty habitual drunkards appearing before him.There were not many sailors, but many people from the country.Since the increase of license fees the licensed places have slightly diminished and the unlicensed greatly increased.In answer to Mr.McLeod, he said that the sale of liquor on Sunday had been on the increase since two or three years, since the police were under the control of the councillors, who do} not care to drosecute tavern keepers who elect them.The Recorder *hought that the club system except in the case of bona fide clubs such as the Garrison Club and Union Club, was the worst possible system, because it was vice under cover of legality.The decrease in drunkennese he attribute to the increasing poverty of the people and to the fines imposed.Religious temperance societies have also contributed.In answer to Mr.Clarke, he said that saloons were very much more dangerous than hotels.He would favor the suppression of these drinking saloons where liquor is sold.In answer to Mr.Gigault, he said that the number of houses of prostitution had diminished wonderfully since 10 years ago.There were over TO some years ago.Now there are scarcely 10.Intemperance had not increased in this district, except in places where smuggling was carried on.After recess Mr.Foley, clerk of the Recorder\u2019s Court, confirmed the Recorder\u2019s statement that drunkenness had decreased considerably.In explanation of \u2018this, he said that the chief factor was the existence of religious and temperance societies, and also the stringent enforcement of the law ordering the tlosing of all taverns on Sundays and at midnight on week days.Of the cases coming before the Recorder about 700 were traceable to drink, of which 800 were drunke, pure and simple.There was only one street of the city in which houses of prostitution were located.They were not tolerated anywhere else.He was of the opinion that taverns should be closed at an earlier hour than midnight, especially on Saturday.Col.Vohl, chief of the city police, said he had 70 men, all told, under bis control.He acted under direction of \u2018came to Canada.the mayor and Police committee, and | attended to the enforcement of city bylaws, He did not arrest inebriates capable of taking care ol! themselves, but only those who were dieorderly.The increased liquor fee seemed to have rather improved the class of taverns.He always informed the provincial authorities of any sales of liquor without license coming to his knowledge.He supplied the following statement show- tig the number of arrests drunkenness since eight years, 1884, 567 arrests; 1383, 715 arrests; 1886, 536 arrests; 1887, 580 arrests; 1888, 581 arrests; 1889, 660 arrests: 1590, G81 arrests; 1891, 487 arrests.Most of the offenses against women and children are traceable to drunkenness, as good many tav- ern-keepers violated the law, but he did not believe that regular hotel-keepers did so.He did not believe that drinking houses were necessary.He believed therh, on the contrary, to be a nuisance.If he was called upon %o express an opinion, he would say that taverns caused more damage than hotels.Asa general rule, the liquor sold in Quebec was of fair quality.Councillors never interfered to prevent the execution of the law.SOME CUSTOMS FIGURES.Lieut.-Col.Forsyth, collector of customs said that the ports under his control with permanent officers were Tadousac, Chicou- timi, Bersimis, Sault au Cochon, River du Loup and Montmagny.He was of opinion that drunkenness had decreased in the city.He did not believe that high license had diminished the sale of liquor.In adjoining manicipalities much liquor was sold without license.There had been much smuggling in his district.He gave the following statistics of the importation of wine and spirits through the port of Quebec: 1883, $128,004; 1884, $100,962; 1885, $102,150; 1886, $90,000; 1887, $96, 321, Total for five years, $517,878.1888, $114,268; 1889, $120,220; 1890, $130,649; 1891, $117,984; 1892, $120,220.Total, 603,346, showing an increase of 985,467 for the last five years on the five years previous.From 1883 to 1887, importation had been 3,032,216 galons.From 1888 to 1892, 2,605,556 gallons.Decrease, 526,670 in the last five years.He had no statistics of beer and ale.It must be remembered that a very large quau- tity of smuggled liquor, much larger than generally supposed, entered this province.He could give no reliable figures but he was sure that this fact had considerable influence on the above statistics.Confiscated liquor was generally sold to commission merchants from other places.This smuggling certainly did cousiderable damage to honest dealers, who will not touch the smuggled stuff, which is very strong, manufactured generally inthe Southern States from Indian corn.He did not believe that prohibition could be enforced in this district.It would certainly increase smuggling.Sailors coming to Quebec were generally of a respectable class.There was no sailors\u2019 home, but the men were well taken of by the clergy of all denominations.It was calculated last year that five thousand barrels of liquor for smuggling purposes were landed at St.Pierre Mique- fon.More then half of this presumably This year the Government was making strenuous efforts to prevent smuggling.There are at present two cruisers constantly on the look out.MR.DOBELL\u2019S EVIDENCE.The next witness, Mr.R.R.Dobell, said -he employed a considerable number of men paid by the year, the season and the week.About 70 families were in his employ and about 40 in Sillery Cove under the supervision of the firm.Licenses are refused in the district of nine miles\u2019 circumference.There are, however, unlicensed liquor shops.{These men were never addicted to drink, but there was more drinking fifteen years ago than to.day.The difficulty was politics.Men put into gaol for selling whis- ey without a license were freed during elections to allow them to vote.He was adverse to total prohibition.It was better that people should be sober, not by force, Put by the desire of leading respectable lives.cised.The Commission then adjourned.THE EXHIBITION OPENED.LIEUT.-GOVERNOR ANGERS STARTS THE SHERBROOKE FAIR GOING.Moral influence should be exer- Five Thousand People Attend the First Day\u2019s Proceedings\u2014Some of the Features of the Show.{Special to The Herald.} Sherbrooke, Sept.6.\u2014Lieut.-Governor Angers formally opened the exhibition here this afternoon at two o'clock.Rufus H.Pope, M.P., the presideut, made an excellent speech in presenting His Honor with an address of welcome, while Mr.Angers replied in his usual pleasing and practical style.The Hon.L.Beaubien also spoke, and then the opening ceremony of the exposition was concluded.Everyone seemed to have had more than homeopathic doses of ceremony t-day, and were glad to see the real operations of the fair commenced, The grounds and buildings were not crowded, only about five thousand people being present.All departments, including the working dairy, are in running order, The machinery display is weak, Judging was commenced in all classes, and the live stock of which there is an exhibit such as only the Eastern Townships could produce, was judged in the different rings, Ample provision is made for the amusement of visitors, and Wild West efforts, as well as good trapeze acting and club swinging kept up interest between heats of the named races.At 2.30 p.m., immediately after Hon.Mr, Angers finished the preliminaries, there was a parade of the Sherbrooke fire brigade, which indicated primarily what a poor chance a fire would have in this enterprising little city, The speeding in the ring was tiresome, as the five horses entered in the named races kept beating each other in sort of turn about fashion for six heats, and as no one could win three heats to-day the result was postponed until to-mor- row, The best time made was 2.48 1-4.The Montreal Juniors defeated the Sherbrookes, although the latter team played fine lacrosse, The baloon

\u2014Other Possibilities.[Special to The Herald.} Ottawa, Sept.6.\u2014The air is full of political rumors to-night.Anyone at all interested in politics is Cabinet making, The only one point in which all agree, is that very soon Sir John Thompson will be called upon to form a government, As to the retirement of Premier Abbott, it is looked upon as a necessity, A Conservative member of Parliament, who happened to be here to-day, said to the Herald correspondent that the Government could not possibly allow Premier Abbott to continue in office after his own statement as to the condition of his health.The country would not permit it.Whatever troubles are ahead, and there no doubt will be some, the Government have got to face the music and that speedily.Having disposed of the Premiership to Sir John Thompson, the question arises as to the other changes contemplated, The taking in of Mr.Mcredith is freely spoken of as a move to counteract any hostility that might come from those of his political school in Ontario who are likely to oppose Thompson, But Meredith in the Cabinet would not suit Dalton McCarthy, neither would he be able to control the Orange vote, Those who handle the boys would soon bring them into revolt, While a few, therefore, favor Meredith, the large majority of the Tory politicians here say that Clarke Wallace is the man for Galway.Ed.Clarke, of Toronto, would be an abler man, but he is not in the Commons, and Wallace would not stand his being taken and himself left out.The move, therefore, is to bring in Wallace as Secretary of State, and moving Patterson upwards, or making the former President of the Council To make room for Wallace, Bowell would retire, He is said to be anxious to do so.A Lieut,-Governorship could be given him if he desired it, For some time past the Tory meam- bers from the Eastern Townships of Quebec have been almost in open revolt owing to being deprived of an Eagiish- speaking representative, Messrs.Ives, Pope and Cleveland have been at daggers drawn with the Government over this matter, It is, therefore, said that Mr, Ives will at last get his long coveted seat in the Cabinet, to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Mr, Abbott, As to the leadership of the Senate, no one discusses it outside of a few French-Canadians, who are putting Lt.- Angers to the front.Sir Adolphe Caron has no intention of going to Spencer Wood, and the Government is not in a position to drive one who holds thelr fate in his pocket, Fhe changes mentioned would complete the Cabiuet and the country could be once more promised a general reconstruction in the way of an apology for the poor timber it coutains.The new material would show Sir Joln\u2019s Thompson's liberality towards the Orange clement in Ontario aud the Protestanl miuvority in Quebec, Further it is said, that to allay the prejudice that is against him, and to secure him the Premiership of the Dominion, the Catholics of Manitoba will not press for remedial legislation in regard Lo separate schools, As Lis opinion on that important matter is strongly suspected, this would be a strong point in Lis favor.At all events, excitement in political and official eircles continue and witli the return of the Miuisters from Petrolia, applicants for office aud their friends may be looked for at the Capital, It is learned here that Mr.Huot, of Montreal, has been appointed to assist J.8.Clarke in collecting exhibits for the Chicago exhibition, Three Rivers Protestant School, [Special to The Herald.] Three Rivers, Sept.6.\u2014The Protestant School opened for this term this morning, under the following management : Elementary department, Miss McCutcheon ; Model department, Miss Hunter, and Academy department, Mr.Ed.Campbell.Miss W.Crombie,

traffic, Mr.New said that since the contents of President Harrison\u2019s circular were communicated to the steamship companies, he had received intimation that all of them were concurring in the regulation, and promising the immediate and entire cessation of the immigrant trade.No complaints, he added, had been made regarding the circular, which the companies accepted as law, When asked whether it was true that the baggage of saloon passengers was not fumigated, Mr.New said that in no case was fumigation omitted when the saloon passenger sailed from a suspected port, He further said he was kept advised by the U, 8.consuls at Bremen, Hamburg and other points regarding passengers from their respective jurisdictions, and all other matters relating to outward bound vessels, He declared he had found the con« suls alert in communicating to him any case requiring vigilance, Mr.New ip stanced the case of saloon passens for the Hamburg-American line Home ship Columbia, which

Herald.] Ottawa, Sept.6.\u2014The action of the Central board of Quebec in issuing am order stopping all immigration info the Province of Quebec is held here by some parties iu official circles to be a clear violation of the British North America act.The preservation of public health \u2018is certainly a provincial matter, but whether the province is justified in stopping immigration, which is under the control of the Dominion Government altogether, is entirely another matter.At any rate there is likely to be à conflict between the province on the one hand and the Dominion on the other before the question is finally disposed of.It will be one of these subjects which Sir John Thompson will be asked Ko handle on his retura from Petrolea.FRIENDS.TO-DAY'S WEATHER.Westerly Winds, Fine;

Là - THE MONTREAL HERALD, WYDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1892, THE CENTENNIAL.An Aucpicions Event in Eastere Township Histery.Laying of the Corner Stone at Sherbrooke of a Monument Commemarating the First Settlement in the \u2018\u2018 Garden of Quebec\u201d a Century Ago\u2014Speech of Lieut.-Governor Angers im Reply to the Address, J \u2014 \u201c+ {Special to The Herald.] Sherbrooke, Sept.6.\u2014At 10.30 o'clock this morning s large crowd gathered at Vie- toria Park to witness the oenemeny of laying the corner stone of the Centennial monument.On the arrival of Lieut.-Governer Asgers, secompagied by Judge Brooks and Mayor Chicoyne, escorted by a military guard of honor, the proceedings were commenced at once.Gathered in a sort of amphitheatre on the hilleide were about 2,500 people, among them, many of the oldest veterans of agriculture in Canada.Above them on a small pagoda were floating pennants and small Union Jacks.Taeked on the trees above was the Latin motto, \u201cPrimis agri- cultoribus patria grata,\u201d while in the centre was the base of the prospective monument with the corner store bearing the historic name of Stanstead, and 1792, 1892, hanging by the easily operated derrick.The pomp and rush of to-day must have seemed indeed a contrast to the array of yeomanry iat stepped on the platform with Lieuten- ant-Governor Angers.Most of the oldest gottlers were present, and as Mr.Hiram \u201cMee, 82:years old, stepped forward to read the @ddress, many thought he would fait owing to his sight, but nevertheless he started it, and at omce handed it over to - Mr.Bporthington to finish.L, i.THE ADDRESS TO THE GOVERNOR.The Yallotring is the text of the address Presoted bo the Honorable A.R.Angers PX dhe old seftlors :\u2014 Fo hie Honorable A.R.Angers, Lieut.- (apvernor of the Province of Quebec.-JHOMORABLE SIR :\u2014 Ÿ ou have been invited 10.be sent to-day and lay the corner stone of a Centennial Monument to be in honor of the memory of the first - sétélers of the Eastern Townships.: .\u2026:Kgtr acceptance of the invitation affords the pommittee and others interested in the -stadertaking great pleasure and gratification, - we express the hope that the event will be one of interest to Your Honor?a.This section of this province, known as «the Eastern Townships, has been rightly .styled \u2018\u201c the Garden of Quebec,\u201d for it is not only highly fertile, but also unsur- ed in the picturesque.beauty of its eu fui\u201d ry.One hundred years ago, while the valley sf the St.Lawrence had a population of probably 125,000, and n million and & half of acres under cultivation, this district was zovered with dense forests, inhabited only by wild beasts, and its capabilities for supporting a population were entirely un- own.In 1792, General Alured Clarke, the first Lieut.-Governor, issued a proclamation and adopted ministerial measures which led to the colonization of this part of che country.The first settlers who came here were United Loyalists\u2014men and women who were willing to leave all and brave all that they might continue to enjoy British institutions, and live beneath the aegis of Britain\u2019s flag, Others accompanied and followed them, actuated by a spirit of adventure and the worthy desire to establish homesteads for themmelves and fam- flies.They entered on no mean task and encountered no slight diffi culties.We, of all others, can testify to the persevering endurance and indomitable determination which enabled them to surmount all obstacles and to lay the foundations of a state of civilization equal to any of the continent.While it would not e appropriate for us, as so closely allied to them, to boast of the manner their example has been followed, yet we may say that in loyalty and love and devotion to their country, their descendants have not proved unworthy of these stock from which they have sprung.Into these townships have since come settlers from almost every nation of the earth, holding various religious opinions\u2014 from England, Scotland, Ireland, France end other countries of Europe, from the valley of the St.Lawrence and from the United States, all of whom have been cemented into one common whole, united in maintaining and upholding the integrity of British institutions in this country.Though various nationalities and different sreeds and representatives, yet harmony revails, jealousy is unknown, noble and énoable emulation exists.The Roman \u2018efholie Cathedral stands near the Presbyterian Church; the Anglican the Congregational; while the t and Baptist churches are not far eir spires flash in the same bright heaven, encouraging and beckon- d and upward to higher aims ng.memory of those men whose ctice and example infused iews into the minds of their this monument is to be | all ages have been the e and ambition.They stand ul sentinels of the past.We trust, le sir, that the monument to be ere will become historic, and that to come our children\u2019s children will many a page of the history of wnships.py is auspicious for the ceremony hich you preside.by us is gathered from all parts of district a rich collection of.the animal, etable and mineral productions of the , 28 well as the product of manufactures, owing at a glance how much has been chieved within the hundred years since our fathers first wiclded the axe here in the primeval forest, It is meet and fitting, honorable sir, that the corner-stone should be laid by yourself\u2014 the honored representative in this province of Her Gracious Majesty, England\u2019s Queen, our beloved Sovereign, and of the descendants of those who, 300 years ago, braved an unknown sea, that they might plant the lilies of France on the shores of the St, Lawrence, amid the wilds of a western world.Their successors are numerous in these Townships, and their loyalty and devotion to the British flag unquestionable.In conclusion, allow me again to express to your honor the pleasure your presence today has afforded the Centennial committee, the old settlers, and all interested in this wark.Our earnest wish-is that the undertaking so auspiciously inaugurated, may prove eminently successful\u2014that you will carry away with you pleasant reminiscences of your short visit, and of your distinguished participation in the chief occurrence of the day.Sherbrooke, 6th Sept., 1892, LIEUT.-GOV, ANGERS\u2019 REPLY.Mr.J.E.Cote then gave the French version, and amidst great applause His Honor the Lieut.-Governor was presented with a handsome engrossed address, and a pretty little girl stepped up and handed him a bouquet.Mr.Angers then said that he felt tly his incompetency for the occasion ; Bis lok of eloquence which the circum- i stances demanded.His last five years of \u201cofficial life did not train him to public speaking.He said that he was not sup- .Josed to speak for himself \u2014in fact, he \u201ccould not think for himseli\u2014so much did his ministers do for him; * but, gentlemen,\u201d said he, \u201c\u2018there is a voice in me stronger than language, which is my heart.(Applause).A voice of gratitude requiring no eloquence, no language; grate- | ful because of being present at your (th | \u2018ameron, Norton, Hollister, Mosier, Hill people\u2019s) kindness.The centennial of the founding of the Eastern Townships, what does it mean?It means an editice which you have been 100 years in building, and which lives in your combined effort durin those years.He said that he thought of those men who had the bravery, the loyalty, when, standing on the other side, lost their heritage by bad government, came over here and bravely dared to penetrate the forest in a free country under the British institutions, This monument is written in history, stamped in our mind, and was begun over 100 years ago.It recalls what my own countrymen did for this section.The were born on the St.Lawrence and left their birthplace.They came here as friends, and from friends they developed to brothers.They, too, have made their sacrifices, walking 60, 70 or 100 miles through the forest, and after chopping so many trees, went back for more supplies.But their determination stimulated by your own, they have achieved the success you have.It has been referred in the address just read, that side by side stand people of different denominations; side y side, men of different religion live together, that the Roman Catholic place of worship is on one side, the Presbyterian on the other, that the Congregational, Baptist and Methodist, all have their temple in the city of Sherbrooke.Well, it should be.And, best of all, no one has ever thought of interfering with religious rights in the Eastern Townships- (Applause.) In no section of the Dominion was better understood the freedom of education and worship.Though the monument is not built in stone, it, to me, is really erected, and in this you have solved, gen- temen, for the whole Dominion, the problem of the freedom of worship and of education.Other parts should be here to-day to study your example.That monument is the glory of yourselves and your forefathers.I need not refer to your prosperity.You have called your country \u2018\u2018 the garden of Quebec.\u201d Ÿ improve that and call it \u201cthe eastern jewel of the Province.\u201d It recalls the precious stones, the ruby, the emerald, the diamond.Your position in agriculture serves as an example for the rest of the province.There are no better farms, no finer manufactures.Your financial institutions are high, so high that no one cau get a share in your bank.He said everything in the Eastern Townships was beyond his means.A man can in a great measure make his path in life, if he chooses.Do as you have done, and your future is assured.1 thank you again for the pleasure I have in being present.This monument will last forever.It may be recorded somewhere, that I had something to do with it through your kindness.In after years it will, perhaps, be all that is left to me, when my children should recall that by the wish of the English people and of my French compatriots I laid the corner stone representing so glorious a past, and presaging so glorious & future.\u201d It was then repeated in French.During the delivery of the speech showers made it a little unpleasant for the listeners.Then the formal laying of the stone was proceeded with, after which Mr.Henniker proposed three British cheers and a tiger, which were heartily responded to.The Victoria Band struck up \u201cMy Own Canadian Home \u201d and the great event was over.Sheriff Johnson delivered an oration afterwards.Among the old settlers present were: R.Armstrong, mayor of Melbourne; Francis Boisvert, Lennoxville, 82 years; Chas.Gauthier, 60 years; W.E.Jones, editor and proprietor of the Richmond Guardian; Almer Malo, Lennoxville; Lucian Metcalfe, Cookshire, at the advanced age of 91, and H.D.Bird, of Shipton; W.H.Bird, Lennoxville; J.E.Cote, 1st mayorof Weedon, who read the address in French; J.Benoit, Geo.Berion, Octavus Champous, D.Israeli, one of Stratford\u2019s old

Bodwill and Magoyer.Among the original associates were Israel Wood and others.John Bishop, the pioneer of Dudswell, was a land surveyor and formerly a soldier in the American Revolutionary army.He

The Development of the Literary Taste in Children-Lottie Collins and Her Song-Miss Aldrich's Last Poem- The Fashionable Hairpins.School days should not be the beginning of the development of the literary taste in children.Their minds can be educated in this direction long before they see the inside of a school house, and it does not require a continued forcing either, nor do they become those disagreeable little things known as \u201cMy precocious,\u201d if the work 1s gone about in the right way, and they are allowed to acquire naturally a taste for the best in the world of letters, even before they perhaps know the alphabet in its entirety.Mother Goose is a dear delightful old person, but there are just as many enchanting tales, pure and simple, relating and appealing to child life that emanate from the pen and brain of men and women of note in the literary world that are worth remembering,and a mind stored with even the simplest quotations from the wells of knowledge will prove & greater pleasure in years to come than the jargon of Little Jack Horner or Hickory Dickory, Dock, no matter if usage and custom have made us regard these as specimens of the purest literature of childhood.Just a little confidential whisper here for the mothers.In teaching the babies you teach yourselves,and though you may say\u2018\u2018Ihaven\u2019t the time,\u201d and goon putting rows of tucks or feather stitching on the little gowns, there will be a day when you will feel a pang, when the college bred sons and daughters never think of appealing to mother for a quotation or mental help of any kind, having formed an idea that darning socks, sewing on buttons and mending tears, are the ouly accomplishments of the woman who never had time to read to them or do aught but the homely work that, though all very well in its way, should not be allowed to crowd out odd moments tor mental im- rovement that will mean so much both to er and the children in years to come.\u2014 Philadelphia Times.Women Manage This Hospital.Cincinnati has an institution, founded by women for women, which rejoices in the double distinction of being the only Presbyterian hospital, women\u2019s medical college and free dispensary combined, and the only one in the United States founded, managed and controlied by women.Special provision is made for preparing young women for work in medical missions.Anne Reeve Aldrich\u2019s Last Poem.In Scribner\u2019s Magazine for September is a pathetic two-verse poem by Anne Reeve Aldrich, who was a favorite contributor to The Free Press, over her own name and over the nom-de-plume of \u2018\u201c Katharine Grant,\u201d diotated by her but a few hours before her death, which occurred at daybreak, June 28 last.The poem here follows: DEATH AT DAYBREAK, I shall go out when the light comes in There lie ny cast-off form and face.I shall pass Dawn on her way to earth, As I seek for a path through space.I shall Be out when the light comes in; Would I might take one ray with me.It is blackest night between the worlds, And how is a soul to see?rs A Bonnet With Blue-bells.Baffled.He played upon the simple stops of men With ense, assurance, arrogance, almost ¢ To lift them Into ecslasy with a toast\u2014 Goad their to fury with a vitriol pen\u2014 Filing favor in their faces and again Compel it back\u2014to mount an unreined host Aud curb or spur it as he pleased the most: This was child's play to him\u2014the master, then.Atonce the power to rouse and to control He had, to awe.charm, anguish, and console\u2014 A fascination that transcended art ; Yet he despised this magic bitterly, Vain to one test ag rhymes to lay the sca\u2014 Tt could not win for him a woman's heart! L.McK.Garrison.An Interesting Family Portrait.The name of Margaret Roper is known to few of us, perhaps, yet glimpses of her beautiful, unseltish character come to us through the mists of centuries\u2014a chasm of more than three hundred years dividing her life from ours\u2014making us well believe, as has been said of another and a later, \u2018 that to know her was of itself a liberal education.\u201d She was the eldest daughter of Sir Thomas Mors, Lord High Chancellor in the reign of blufl King Hal.Reared in an atmosphere of learning and cultured beyond most women of the period, she became the literary helper and accomplished companion of Ler scholarly father.The intimacy of the great Erasmus with the father led toasecond and not less earnest friendship with the beloved daughter ; and it was through Erasmus that Holbein received an introduction to this high-bred circle, and that from the artist's brush has come down to modern times a veritable portraiv- picture of the entire family of this dis tinguished household.; ; This remarkable picture was finished in 1529.The lifelike delineation was upon & large canvas aud in water-colors ; no less was it of life size, \u2018\u2018 from head to foot, the learned and famous Sir Thomas More, with wife and children magnificently arrayed.\u201d The family occupy an apartment the furniture of which indicates a \u2018\u2018 living-rooom\u201d; upon one side isa bullet on which are ranged tankards and bottles, opposite are seen candlesticks and books, against a wall towers a clock with weights, andheavy folios lie here and there.It is easy to see what atmos- here dominates this circle ; the ladies Pave in hand books or fancy needle-work, position and expression indicating serious, thought, stateliness of demeanor, and unity of feeling.Upon the head of Madame More rests the stiff angular style of headdress then in vogue, and curiously enough, the name and age of each, written in Latin, are attached to the hem of the garment, or otherwise attached to the person.; The Lord High Chancellor occupies a central position ; at his right sits hisaged father, whom the son with filial tenderness watched over with the utmost care, and whom he never ceased to thank for his strict and simple education.\u201c\u201c An affable, gentie, merciful, upright, and pure minded man, full of years, was this patriarch of fourscore, * though still vigorous and blooming,\u2019 said his son.\u2019 Grouped about their elders are the younger members of the houschold.Secretaries are in the background at their usual avocations ; pets, of which there were not a few, are frisking about, and the family jester peeps over a young man\u2019s shoulder, with apparently words of merriment ready to bubble out ; musical instruments of divers kinds await the touch of skillful fingers ; nearest the father leans one whom he oft lovingly calls \u2018\u201c My Meg.\u201d September, 1529, is the recorded date of a letter from Erasmus to the Lord High Chancellor and his beloved daughter Meg, full of thanks for the original sketch of this famous picture by Holbein, which the artist had with his own hands brought to him on his return from England to Basle.In this letter Erasmus says, \u201c1 can hardly express in words, Mar:aret Roper, thou ornament of thy sex in England, what hearty delight I experienced in viewing such a successful delineation.\u201d In 1532, Sir Thomas More resigned his position as Lord High Chancellor of England.A year later comes the record of divorce of Henry VIII, from Katharine of Arracron, and the marriage of Anne Boleyn.ln 1535, the great ex-minister of his Majesty, ** for honest difference of opinion,\u201d was thrown into the Tower and cruelly beheaded.1t was during this season of imprisonment that the touching letter of farewell was written, pencilled with charcoal on a slip of paper, and addressed to ** Myne owne goode daughter.\u201d : A WOMAY OF THIRTY Continued From September 2.CHAPTER II, \u201cSo it will have to be the rector, after all, Rachel dear.You sec there is absolutely no help for it, And last night I danced my last valse, I suppose, for Mrs, Pritchard told me in confidence that the reverend gentleman highly disapproved of dancing.\u201d Sylvia was sitting on her bed, forlornly regarding a torn tulle bali-dress with eyes which were sparkling as much with anger as any other feeling.\u201cI never could have believed papa would have done such a thing, And yet I might have known that there was absolutely no end to the surprises he prepares for me.\u201d Rachel was silent, for they had talked over the subject so often in the last few days that she could neither soothe nor advise any more, \u201cI've got six months to do it in,\u201d proceeded Sylvia, recklessly; \u201cand if the man has got no prehistoric attachment on record, he ought to come up to the scratch by then,\u201d \u201cBut how shall you get to him?\u201d \u2018 Oh, through the Hazelfords, of course, They are hand in glove with him.I took a good look at him the othe day, Rachel, when I met him in the street, Poor creature! he little thought that he was passing the woman who meant to be his wife.\u201d Perfectly unmoved at Sylvia's unusual way of putting things, Rachdt confined herself to asking what Mr.Dyson was like in appearance, \u201cLike?\u201d said Sylvia, indifferently, fingering a piece of the spangled tulle with loving regret, \u201cWell, he is rather like a well-bred horse, somehow \u2014those Roman-nosed ones, you know, with rather wide nostrils.And he has thin, sandy hair and a lean appearance,\u201d \u201c Sylvia, you cannot mean to marry him! Even you would not be mad enough.\u201d \u20181 never .felt more resolute in my life, I might have wavered a little perhaps, if it had not been for one thing, but now nothing would move me,\u201d \u2018I thought something had happened, your eyes were so big.What, is it?\u201d \u201c Well,\u201d began Sylvia, settling her- sell in a more comiortahle position, \u2018it is this.You see, I heard it at the dance.I told youn that I meant to be nice to George Brett, and I was, though I must say his is a style that I do not admire, Hc made remarks on every one in the room, running down all the girls (except, of course, your humble servant) aud telling me that the prettiest girl there wasn\u2019t a patch on the woman who was coming down to stay with them in three weeks\u2019 time, He assured me that she was simply divine, 1 asked who it was, and he said, \u201cMrs, Lesiie, and Jim's roming too, of course.\u2019 Well, you might have knocked me over with a feather after that, But I did have the presence of mind to make out that the Jim Leslie I was engaged to and this man were one and the same, They are!\u201d \u201c Doesn\u2019t he know you live here?\u201d \u2018No.It was all over three years ago and we have only been here two, Now you see why I have a double reason for marrying Mr.Dyson, Rachel.Jim shall not have the pleasute of imagiu- ing that 1 have kept single for bis sake\u201d \u201cBut are you sure it's bis wife?It might be his mother.\u201d \u201cBut be is an orphan, of parents bereft, you see! No, I've made up my mind, and I shali make him propose as quickly as possible.\u201d She knitted her pretty brows for a moment, \u201cI must get to know a little about his character first, though, not that it will help me one bit, for when yon know one man, you know all They are perfect sheep.Flatter them and you can lead them wherever you like.\u201d She shook herself off the bed as she spoke and landed on the floor in a crumpled heap, \u201cI am going to the Hazelfords this very minute, Rachel, and I want you to come too.There is not a minute to be Jost, It is their at home day, and he loves tea end scandal.I have got to know that already, you see.\u201d know She dressed herself rapidly and plain- | ly, smoothing down the mutinous curls 1 with a relentless hand, She was dress- »d in Quaker gray from head to foot, with & little gray plume in her close- fitting hat.\u201cNow I'm sure that looks neat and quiet, Just the sort of thing to strike the eye.Ile will say, \u2018What a nice, simple, unaffected little girl\u2019 And he will walk home with us, Rachel.Mark my words.\u201d The clock struck four as the two girls entered Mrs.Hazelford\u2019s drawing-room.Bylvia took in the fact that there was ouly one guest present, and that her victim, She prepared for conquest.\u201cI don\u2019t think you have met Mr.Dyson before,\u201d said Mrs.Hazelford, performing the introduction with lazy good humor, \u201cMr.Dyson\u2014Miss Len- nox, Miss Desmond.\u201d Sylvia sat modestly down on a small chair, and asked Mrs.Hazelford, in a clear, low voice, how the clothing club was getting on.I shall have a few little contributions to send you, dear Mrs.Hazelford,\u201d she said, \u201cI am afraid it will be a trying winter for the poor.\u201d Her hostess was a little surprised at Sylvia\u2019s unusual charity, but as she was one of those persons upon whom it is Dossible to practice the grossest deceptions without their ever being conscious of it, she took the offer in very good part, \u201cPoor girl, I dare say she thinks it is time she was doing some good iu Children Cry for Pitcher\u2019s Castoria.\u2014 the world,\u201d she thought, without an idea of Sylvia\u2019s ulterior motive in the matter, ** Women do wake up like that sometimes, I suppose, and I am sure 1 shall be very glad of her help in the parish.\u201d And in the meantime Sylvia, in a soft, cooing voice, was thanking the rector cuthusipsticaliy for his last Sunday's sermon, ; \u201cIf you only knew what a long time it is since we have had such a treat.she said, raising her pretty eyes to his.** I assure you, I actually saw tears In Molly Barker's eyes, and she is a most hardened old woman,\u201d Like most clergymen, the rector cherished a secret idea that his sermons, if ever printed, would make his name a household word on every hearth.He bezan to find Sylvia Lennox an agreeable, appreciative young woman.As he looked down at her, Sylvia thought he resembled a horse more than ever.\u201clt is always pleasant when onc comes to a strange parish to find that ong begins to win the hearts of the people so soon,\u201d he said, moving his head a little irom side to side as though he were suffering from a stiff neck: \u201cbut I had no idea that such a rich reward was in store for me.The woman Barker must have a mind of more than average intelligence.\u201d \u201cI have always thought her incorrigible before,\u201d murmurred Sylvia, \u2018but now that I have scen her touched by the beautiful simplicity of your words, I shall take fresh heart again.\u201d \u201c Let me get you some more tea, Miss Lennox,\u201d said the rector, quite warmly.And he started on his journey to the tea-table, walking delicately like Agag of renowned memory.\u201cI hope you will let me be of what afternoon visitors.To this latter Syl- vin was giving her final instructions, while she dusted the mantel-picce and arranged the flowers.\u201cWhen Mr.Dyson comes, Arthur, you are to say that Col.Lennox is not at use I can in the parish, Mr, Dyson,\u201d said Syivia sweetly, as he came stalking back again; \u201cbut my father,\u201d with a little sigh, \u201c\u201c does not approve of my visiting much among the poor.\u201d Her object in this speech was twofold.She wished to posc as a woman who would spend her life by the side of pauper sick-beds, if only a harsh parent permitted it, and she also wished to intimate to Mr.Dyson that he need not expect to find her too often in the haunts of misery.The wishes of the woman must, alas, sometimes give way to the obedience of the daughter.(To be Continued.)

but when the Gaiety Theatre engaged her, and she appeared there besides making the rounds of the halls, there was something new to record in the history of the English vaudeville stage.Popularity like this necessarily profited Lottie Collins.They say she made $600 a weck out of her four engagements, and her wages ran along at that rate for a number of months.When Charles Frohman, with the magic of & plethoric purse, persuaded Lottie to sign her name to a contract for a short American tour, all the theatrical quidnunes marvelled at the man\u2019s boldness; for at first it was reported that he would pay her $1,200 a week.The figure was exuggerat- ed, but it seems credible that he really will give her $800.That's a pretty good sum, too, for a song that will last only twenty minutes; but Frohman has a long head, and he is lucky besides.Only a week ago he was uncertain as to the scene of his new star\u2019s début.There was a well-defined hint that she was thought of for the Casino under its new vaudeville system.But perhaps the price sel upon her services frightened Mr.Arouson.At any rate, Frohman has determined to introduce her at the Standard, where one of his own companies will play **Jane\u201d besides.Five or six years ago the English music hall frequenters used to call Lottie Collins \u2018\u201c The Kate Vaughan of the Vaudevilles.\u201d She has learned Lier business from the ground up, literally.She was ouly 8 years old when, in conjunction with her sister, she appeared in one of the London halls, the pair doing a skipping rope dance and duct.At 14 she started out alone, and sang and danced in boy\u2019s dress.At 17 shemade anew departure, not only on her own account, but also in music hail art ; for it was at that age she began to dance in skirts.To this day it is a matter of great pride with her that she can claim to have first introduced skirt dancing on the music hall stage.After a while she took part in * Monte Cristo\u201d at the London Gaiety,\u201d and for three years she was n e \u2018\u2018principal girl\u201d at the Manchester Comed., the Birmingham Grand, andthe Nottingham Theatre Royal.In the fall of 1889 Lottie Collins came to America, and for thirty weeks she made a tour with a variety troupe.She played at Pastor\u2019s, and she was successful, but.¢ Ta- ra-ra\u201d hadn\u2019t been evolved then, and so her life chance hadn\u2019t arrived.Up to that time Miss Collins was best liked for her song.*\u201c The Whistling Coon,\u201d in which her audience joined her in whistling the chorus while she danced, the orchestra meanwhile ceasing to play, so that the au ience might have it all their own way.This was a very effective and social affair, on the whole, and if Lottie Collins hadn\u2019t done anything else she would be remembered for it by the variety theatre supporters.*\u2018Ta-ra-ra,\u201d as everybody understands, has been traced as far back as the days of the \"Manufacturing and Mercantile troubadours ; but it first saw the light inits | present form in July 1891.Henry J.Sayers, a manager, wrote the words, rehashed the music, and gave it a place in ¢ Tuxedo.\u201d A few months later \u2018* Tuxedo\u201d came to this city, and ¢ Ta-ra-ra\u201d was aired here.It didn\u2019t make what might be called a great hit, though it was encored.But Lottie Collins, to whom somebody mailed a copy of the song, put on the frills which it had lacked, and sang it in London : and now she will veritably bring coal to Newcastle, and show us what we missed in the first version.Miss Collins is likely to be a popular figure in Bohemia and with the town's golden vouth ; but it is well to reveal that she is a huppy wife, and that her husband, Samuel P.Cooney, is a manager and an athlete.The Fashionable Hairpin, The large hairpins with jewelled tops come in many beautiful designs, and are still very popular, but hairpins just now are sold in sets which consist of one large pin and eight small ones.A exquisite set for a brunette is of light tortoise-shell, set with topazes ; the large pin is in shell ; its top is formed of six topazes, mounted in gold.With it come cight small shell pins, the top of each one being studded with tiny topazes.The Bal Blane.A pretty custom which has come to us from abroad is to give the young budsa \u2018bal blanc.\u201d ;

Rill, WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPT.7.Our Future Destiny a Proper Study.Hon.J.W.Longley, Attorney-General of Nova Scotia, may lay claim to be considered an important member of the Liberal party of Canada.His views are wide and progressive, and he might probably be taken as representative of the younger school of Canadian Liberals, as 8ir Oliver Mowat is of the older school.It is extremely probable that a man whose memory carries him back to the time when Canada was a orown colony ; when every red coat was treated with the deference due to a direct representative of the crown ; when the policy of Canada was subordinate to and directed by the British Colonial Minister ; when the presence of a British army continually reminded him of Britain's power and protection, would take a different view of Canada\u2019s relations to Great Britain to the younger generation, whose memories of Great Britain are only traditional, and who have been taught to look upon Canada as a free and independent country, bound only by sentiment and nominal lies to the old land.Sir Oliver objects to thought, word or ation inspired by desire for any change tn the present status.He is a patriot and earnest in his desire for the prosperity, welfare and greatness of Canada, but he believes all these ends can be attained while acting hand in hand with the mother country.Strong in the faith of his convictions he cannot understand that any man with the same patriotic ends in view can possibly work along different lines.Sir Oliver's services have been so great, his love of Canada so obvious, and his liberalism has been so conspicuous, that the younger generation, even while differing with some of his conclusions, will ever feel respect and gratitude to the man.This feeling is well evinced by Mr.Longley in an article in the Lake Magazine, claiming for Liberals a greater freedom in consideration of the policy best fitted to serve the future interests of Canada.He seems scarcely to consider any change within the immediate range of practical politics, and does not profess any pronounced views himself, but he believes (in opposition to Mr.Mowat) in our young men studying fairly the different courses that seem likely at some tuture date to be brought before the slectorate for their decision.There are no less than four different lines along which a Canadian may think It wise to work out the future destinies of his country, and there are arguments for and against each course with which Mr.Longley thinks it wise they should make themselves acquainted.1.We may remain as we are a colonial dependency of the empire, calling on Britain for protection in time of need, but contributing not one cent towards the cost of the Imperial forces, 2.À closer alliance with the empire, in the way of mutual alliance as between independent nations, or on the lines ef Imperial Federation, with representation in the Imperial Council.; 3.An independent nationality.Canada has territory and resouroes sufficient to found a great nation.Population is rather scant to bear the burdens entailed by independence ; but as a nation she would soon attract immigration which she fails to do as a dependent upon Great Britain.4.Annexation to the United States, which would preserve to each province its political autonomy, while giving all the advantage of belonging to a great nation.The advantages and disadvantages of each course are clearly and impartially described, and Mr.Longley opines that not only is every Canadian at liberty to study the matter for himself, but that it is his bounden duty, asa patriot, to do so.Just at present; there is no pressing reason for raising any of these questions, but events march quickly, and it is no doubt wise for Canadians to think calmly over such matters while it may be done without being forced to view them through the distorted mediums of passion, prejudice or political divisions.When the time comes for decision it will be well for the country if it finds us as a nation fairly united, and knowing well what we ourselves desire as well as how best to bring those desires to pass.\u201cThe labor troubles in Tennessee are not al} aver.After shooting down and other- wie intimidating the riotous miners Go.verijmeng again sent the released convicts to work in the mines and once more threats are mgde of, preventing convict labor from taking away the bread from honest men.The miners may be rough and lawless, but they have nevertheless a real grievance, and farce is a poor argument to persuade them otherwise Men with families to keep cannot possibly compete with the organized, underpaid amd Government-provided.for convict labor, nor while there are roads to make and works of national utility to be executed is there any reason why they should be exposed to such competition.Theatrical managers are noted for their advertising fakes ; but few of them have ever displayed quite as much gall as that exhibited by the manager of the White Squadron Company, now playing an engagement at the Queen's.The play is a patriotic American production, and the manager hired a gang of toughs to hiss the American flag upon its appearance on the stage on Monday night, and to then tear the American flag down from the door of the theatre and drag it along St.Catherine street.Then an actor came out before the curtain and warmly resented the outrage, while the manager held forth in the lobby of the theatre in the same strain to a group of representatives of the press.The latter gentleman\u2014 beg pardon, we should say individual\u2014 calculated that the newspapers here and in the United States would make columns of it, and when he returned with his company to the other side of the line he would reap a rich reward, as a result of this gratuitous advertisement.But his plans miscarried.Canadian newspapers took little stock in the incident,and though the correspondents of American papers sent off despatches hot enough in their language to melt the wires, they were dropped in the waste-paper basket by American editors, who had bigger fish to fry in handling President Harrison's letter of acceptance, the New Orleans fight and other live news.To cap the climax of \"the manager's disappointment the fake, which was suspected from the outset, was clearly revealed yesterday.Altogether Neil Florence\u2014we believe that is what this combination of nerve and impudence is called by those unfortunate enough to know him\u2014has been quite unfortunate in this speculation.He has certainly succeeded in getting some free advertising, but it is of a nature that even he will probably feel will not be any very substantial advantage to him or his company.Winnipeg is slightly ahead of usin the matter of electric railways.The first trip over the new system was made on Monday last and seems to have afforded perfect satisfaction to everybody.No one seems to have fallen off a house top, or choked himself with butter, or come to sudden death in any otherextraordinary fashion that day, so that the accident-mongers who dog the steps of the trolley system were disappointed.\u201cNice Customs Courtesy to Great Kings.\u201d Under the improved position and prospects of the cholera-smitten districts of Europe, and the probabilities of cooler weather diminishing the chances of contagion, it is possible that the extreme measure of complete prohibition of immigration may not be enforced, and that careful quarantine may prove a sufficient protective.This is, however, a detail that may safely be trusted to the Provincial Board of Health.The people of this province are sufficiently satisfied with their energy and activity to leave them the fullest freedom in the matter.Whatever course they decide upon will have the most energetic support of the people.It has been argued by the older type of politicians, who cannot understand freedom of initiative under any circumstances, and must see every measure carefully cradled in precedent and swaddled in red tape before they imagine it conforms to all the conditions of law, that the rules of the Board of Health are \u2018\u2018 ultra vires\u201d and cannot be enforced.In the face of a great emergency there is no time to commit measures to a college of lawyers to decide upon their exact constitutionality.The constitution was made for the people and not the people for the constitution.At a grave crisis where there is no constitutional precedent to govern the course of action, a precedent must be made.Probably whenthe British North America act was debated the possibility of an invasion of cholera, which could only be averted by prompt action of the Quebec executive, was never taken into account.If the power to take measures to prevent contagion was at that time deliberately left with the central government, it was because the possibility of a premier incapable of exertion and obliged by mental weakness to avoid worry or trouble was never contemplated.That the premier should be so afflicted while at the same time the responsible minister should neglect the duties of his department, and another minister deputed to enquire into the efficiency of the quarantine station should set up his opinion in opposition to thejadvice of experts, was certainly beyond any stretch of imagination of the fathers of confederation.Yet these are the actual circumstances that have called for action by the Provincial Board of Health.Had the Dominion Government risen to the occasion the Board of Health would have confined themselves to rendering active assistance in forwarding their plans.But the Government dallied from day to day.They showed no sign of appreciation of the gravity of the situation.The danger became daily more pressing, and the Provincial Board wisely, as most men think, at last took action.If.they have made any breach of political etiquette, they will probably make amends after the danger is safely passed.Self-preservation is the first law of nature ; and the action taken was clearly in the interest, not only of the Province, but the Dominion.It was forced upon the Province of Quebec because no other province could have done the work.For the present, at least, we take command of our own port, and whether we offend against precedent, or break through the bonds of red tape, or the official rules of ¢ how-not-to-do-it,\u201d the rules laid down by the Provincial Board will be the only ones recognized by the people.When The Cheekiest Thing on Record.| the crisis is past we will refer the matt.of their constitutionality to the proper quarter.EXHIBITION AT ST.JOHNS.THE OPENING DAY CONSIDERABLY MARRED BY BAD WEATHER.A First-Class Display of Exhibits in the Several Departments\u2014A Noticeable Absence of Side Shows.[Special to The Herald.) St.Johns, Sept.6.Notwithstanding the fact that the annual exhibition at St.Johns opened to-day under such unfavorable circumstances, it bids fair to be a pronounced success.The day opened fair and warm, but about 10 o\u2019clock in the forenoon, a heavy downpour of rain came on, thoroughly soaking the grounds.A strong, cold wind also sprang up, and the remainder of the day was raw and disagreeable.Not in any way deterred by this, a large number of exhibitors were early on the grounds, arranging their exhibits to the best possible advantage for the opening.The formal opening was fixed for 2 o'clock in the afterncon, and it was expected that the Minister of Agriculture, Hon.Mr.Beaubien, would deliver an address.He was unable to be present, however, but is expected on the grounds to-morrow.His place was efficiently filled by the Hon.Mr.larchand, who delivered an appropriate address.In it he expressed his pleasure at being present, and congratulated those present on the excellent exhibition they had got together.He was pleased to soe such a large quantity of live stock, particularly horses, and thought that the counties there represented were ahead of any others he knew.He hoped that the awards of the judges would be satisfactory to everybody, and that the best prizes would go to the best stock.The president, Mr.Henry Roy, also briefly addressed the gathering in similar terms.After the formal opening a general move was made to the various departments of the show, which is well worthy a visit.Although the grounds have been enlarged by an addition of 50 stalls, making in all 500 stalls, there is not sufficient room for theentries.A further expansion is necessary, and will be made as soon as possible.The exhibit of horses is a first-class one, no less than 125 entries having been received, The other entries in this department include 200 cattle, 150 sheep and 70 pigs.In the poultry department 90 entries have been received.he quality of this stock is apparently excellent, and the judges will, perhaps, have some difficulty in deciding which is best.The horses are classed as follows : Clydes- dules, Percherons, Heavy, Canadians, English thoroughbred, light and standard bred trotters.The cattle are registered Canadian, Durhams, Ayrshires, Jerseys, Holsteins, Guernseys, grade cattle and working oxen.Among the sheep are registered Cotwald\u2019s, Leicesters, South Downs, Shrop- shires Downs and grade sheep.The swine include registered White Chester, and other large breeds, Berkshires, and other small breeds and grade swine, and among the poultry are Brahmas, Cochins, Dorkings, lymouth Rocks, turkiecs, geese, ducks and hens.mens of melons and pumpkins, In the ladies\u2019 department there is a splendid exhibit of lace, wool work, embroi ery, fancy work and paintings, some specimens of which are almost beyond praise.The show of manufactured products is only fair, there being comparatively few Specimens of agricultural implements.The Miner Carriage Manufacturing Co., of Granby, however, have a good exhibit\u2019 of their various makes of buggies and carriages.Mr.A.MacDonalds exhibit of china ware is a good one, and Mr.Douglas, of St.Johns, has a good show of canned shows about 700 pounds of different kinds, of honey, of apparently excellent uality.Owing to the unfavorable weather there was only a moderate number of spectators on the grounds this afternoon, and the work that was done was principally of a preparatory character, and a large attendance is expected to-morrow.In addition to the presence of the Minister of Agriculture, most of the judges\u2019 awards will be made to.MOTOW, none of this having been done to- ay.One noticeable feature of the exhibition,is the almost entire absence of side-shows, The only one of the fraternity present was unable to exhibit, owing to the tent having been blown over by the strong wind early in the day, and not being able to get it fixed up again in time.Among the prizes offered for * ladies are: Three of 88, $6 and $4 respectively, for those who will show the most skill in driving one horse tackled on a light buggy at the request of the judges each exhibition day.This competition was started to-day, the following ladies taking part: Mrs.OC, Bessette, Mrs.O.Benoit, Mrs.Perrier and Mrs.À.Audelin, of St.Johns.The driving was good and highly appreciated by the spectators.The winners will not be announced until the close of the exhibition.The judges in this event are ; F.F.Tarte, Farnham: J.B.Stewart, St.J ohns, and Paul Normandin, Laprairie.The exhibition is of no less than ten counties, viz.: St.Johns, Iberville, Napierville, Beauharnois, Chambly, Chateauguay, Hun- tingdon, Laprairie, Missisquoi and Rouville, and thè success of the exhibition is dependent in a great measure on the hard work of the president, Mr.Henry Roy, and the secretary, Mr.A.N.Deland, both of whom were busy to-day attending to the numerous wants and enquiries of the exhibitors, The committees are as follows : Admission to the grounds\u2014A.Bisaillon, St.Johns, President;

Fought a Plucky Fight, but was Clearly Outclassed \u2014 Challenges f.r Dixon \u2014 Mitchell Has Been Heard From Once More.New Orleans, Sept.6.\u2014Contrary to the established custom here, a portion of the eating capacity of the Olympic Club's battle hall was reserved for the colored people.lt was well filled of course with enthusiastic Dixon admirers.The fight to.might was for a purse of $7,500 and side bets of $5,000, or a total of $17,500 d the featherweight championship.The contestants were Jack Skelly, of Brooklyn, recently but a clever amateur, and George Dixon, the invincible colored favorite of Boston.The betting has all along favored the ebony-hued champion, and he latest betting (betting is not allowed in the auditorium) was 3 to 1 in favor of The men weighed in at two o'clock, Skel.tipped the beam at 1164 pounds and ixon 118 pounds.Skelly is attended at he ring side, by Carroll and Choynski; ack McAuliffe and Robertson with Johuny riffin, timekeeper.Dixon\u2019sattendants are \u2019Rourke, Jas.Doherty.Morris Kelly and ack Havelin with M.J.Bradlin, time- eeper.Prof.Duffy was again referee.Dixon entered the ring at 9 o'clock, and wo minutes later was followed by Skelly, accompanied by Jack McAulitfe, his bottle- holder.The usual ring preliminaries followed.Both men appeared in the pink of condition, with Skelly having a slight advantage in height.First round\u2014-Both men lead for the head and clinched immediately ; Skelly then rushed Dixon.Another clinch was followed by Dixon letting his right in on Skelly\u2019s head, and Skelly retorted by putting his right on Dixon\u2019s neck.Another clinch, followed by sparring, and Dixon landed his left on Skelly\u2019s jaw lightly.Second round\u2014Dixon landed on Skelly\u2019 with right and left on the headand, stepping back, planted a straight right hand smash in Skelly\u2019s stomach.Dixon lead again, and put his left on Skelly\u2019s stomach.Skelly retorted with a good left on Dixon's ear.The fighting became desperate at close quarters.Dixon got in a wicked right swing on Skelly\u2019s nose.» Third round\u2014Dixon continues the agressive, knocking Skelly down with a Skelly tried for the colored boy\u2019s jaw, and caught his shoulder.Dixon retorted with a heavy right on , Skelly\u2019s jaw and put his left in the same place, following this with a stiff punch on Skelly\u2019s stomach, Fourth round\u2014Both men come up strong, but Skeliy's body shows punishment and his nose is slightly cut.Dixon begins the fighting by a good left on Skelly\u2019s head.Then in fighting of give and take follows, with Dixon having the advantage.When they got apart Dixon got in a savage upper cut, and takes a light right hand stomach in return, Dixon lands his left again and nearly knocks Skelly down.Skelly seemed dead and went to his corner in the style of a groggy man.Fiith round-Skelly came ont looking strong enough, but made a weak attempt to catch Dixon\u2019s jaw.In a clinch which followed Dixon landed another under the right arm and then smashed Skelly in the face with the right.\u201cMahogany\u201d now with left and right on the eye and nose, and Skelly\u2019s face was bloody from the eyes down.Skelly was quite tired, but he stood the gaff, Sixth round\u2014S8kelly forced Dixon over to his corner, but could not land a blow.Dixon hit him with the left twice under the right arm, once on the nose, making more blood flow, and again the left under the right arm.Dixon rushed with the evident intention of finishing his man, and landed left and right on the face.He repcased this twice, and Skelly could not make a return of the weakest kind.Seventh round\u2014Dixon led his left for the face and Skelly stopped it nicely.Dixon got in a stiff right hander on the stomach, and again on the face, once more on the neck, and for the fourth time on the body under the right arm.All the blows were hard.Then Dixon went at him with both hands and hit him all over the ring.One left hander on the jaw floored Skelly, who was bleeding freely.Eighth round\u2014Skelly came up groggy again Dixon was as fresh as a daisy, It looked as if the end of the fight was near, and the crowd began to leave the building.Dixon rushed and smashed Skelly all over thé ring.At close quarters Dixon hit him with the right on the jaw, and ihe crowd yelled \u201cfoul.\u201d But there was no foul, as each iad an armful.Skelly went down under the force of the crack, hut got up, bloody but pluckily.Dixon ran at him again and thumped with right and left on the ropes.Skelly was so awfully played out that he went down again on his knees.He fell over on his face, and made an effort to get up, but it was no use and he was counted out.The poor boy had not been a half-sized competitor for the colored champion.The Brooklynite meant well enough and showed good heart, but unfortunately he does not now how to fight à good man.Dixon was pretty well applauded when the decision was given.The occupants of the colored gallery made a great noise and kept it up until R.M.Frank, the official timekeeper of the club, called for order, and announced that Charlie Mitchell had sent a challenge to the winner of the fight to-morrow night for $10,000 a side within 10 weeks, if he was allowed $1,000 for expenses.Mr.Frank also stated that Johnny Murphy, of Boston, wanted to fight Dixon, as also did Johnny Griffin, of Braintree, Mass.Murphy asserted that he could fight at 117 pounds, but a good many persons who know the Braintree boy doubt that he can get lower than 120.He is matched against Jimmy Lynch, of New York, at 122 pounds, the fight to take place at Coney Island on the 26th instant.After it was all over the New Orleans ritizens gave all credit to Dixon for the work he had done, but they plainly did not ike to do it.GEORGE DIXON'S RECORD.George Dixon, to-night\u2019s winner, has, next to Sullivan, the best claim to a championship of any man in the ring to-day.As a feather weight he has been unexcelled, and has always stood ready to defend lus title wherever man and money stood ready to dispute it.Dixon's record isan exceedingly brilliant one.He has had four draws with Hank Brennan and one with Cal McCarthy, but of late years he has carried everything before him.He is esentially a fighter, but like a pocket Hercules, quick on his feet as a squirrel, with a good eye, a clear head and a right and left that go out like well regulated piston rods.He has won a ton of money in his day, though his percentages of his earnings have not been sufficient to make hin independent of the ring as a wage-earning institution.It is generally understood that he receives a third of his winnings, which is certainly not more than generous of the people to whom the dark skinned wonder has been a gold mine that could be tapped at will.Dixon is an exceedingly hard worker and has been shrewdly managed.When he fought Fred Johnson there was a very general story that he weighed only 114 pounds, while the articles of agreement al- owed 117 pounds.Dixon\u2019s friends, of course, spread the story.The men were to weigh in on a Monday afternoon.On tle preceding Sunday afternoon the writer met Dixon on Coney Island avenue wrapped up in sweaters, industriously reducing that he might pass the scale at 117.The following is a list of his most prominent engagements : Defeated young Johnson, three rounds.Defeated Sam Cohen, nine rounds.Defeated Paddy Kelly, fifteen rounds.Defeated Fred.Morris, four rounds.Defeated Jim Brackett, five rounds.Defeated Billy James, three rounds.Defeated Eugene Hornbacker, two rounds.Defeated Johany Murphy, forty rounds.Defeated Cal.McCarthy, twenty-three rounds.Defeated Abe Wells (Australian champion), five rounds.Defeated Jack Hamilton, eight rounds.Defeated Nunc Wallace (English champion), eight rounds.Defeated Fred.Johnson, thirteen rounds.Defeated Jack Skelly, eight rounds.JACK SKELLY, THE DEFEATED ONE.Jack Skelly, the defeated one, is a mild sort of a fellow, and enjoys a splendid position in a mercantile house.He has few weaknesses and novices.When not working he finds most enjoyment in his home, and if those who look upon him only as a prize fighter, could see the well filled and carefully read case of books which adorns his rooms they would marvel that his thoughts could ever turn him to the prize ring.Skelly has no record as a fighter other than that which he gained as an amateur.He is 21 years of age, 5 feet 8 inches in height, and has whipped a roomful of am- auteurs.There his record begins and ends.Skelly has been very freely condemned for flying at such high game as Dixon, but if he is in the ring for the money he may get out of it; as he is, his course was a wise one.He made a bold bid for honors, and the stakes, the fame and money which lay on the other side of such a victory were well worthy the trial.If Skelly had \u2018elected to meet some man of smaller reputation he would have stood, practically speaking, very near the same chance of defeat, and success would have brought him little honor and less money.Corbett Confident of Success.New Orleans, Sept.6.\u2014The last of the gladiators ishere.He arrived this morning in the person of the big San Franciscan, and received a wurm welcome.If superb condition and supreme confidence to-day are factors in the fight, Corbett\u2019s chances may be ranked up among the pictures.The Corbett train came in on time, and the Californian was met at the depot by a large crowd.He shook hands cordially with all his friends, and answered a running fire of questions.\u2018\u2018 Oh, .I am in fine form,\u201d he said.¢* 1 feel perfectly well.I have had Plenty of rest coming down.\u201d Delaney and rady were ag confident and happy as kittens.They chatted about the fight.They cannot see how Corbett can lose.\u201cWhy, Corbett is in perfect form,\u201d quotes Delaney.\u2018There will be a surprise for the big fellow to-morrow evening.Mark my words.I have been in the business a great many years, and I never had the contidence hatt I have now.Corbett weighs about 185 pounds, I guess, but we don\u2019t bother with the scales.Wait till you see him hit.Yes, he can hit harder than Sullivan.May be its strange to you to hear me say that, but I know its true.Jim is confident he will win, and will be as brave as a lion.\u201d At the club Corbett was immediately shown into a dressing room.He did not mind the crowd in the least, but peeled off and stood up and showed his fine form.The man is strongly built, and he is a mass of graceful muscle.There is not an ounce of superfluous flesh upon him from foot to ear.After a bath he went to the residence where he is to stay, and took a sleep.This afternoon he did some light work and will spend the remainder of the day quietly with his trainer.The announcement sent out from the Cor- bett train was the object of universal comment.It was to effect that Corbett\u2019s bagker would demand that Sullivan should \u2018| appear to-morrow night stripped to the navel, The Corbett men claim that in previous fights Sullivan has worn his trunks high up and beneath wore blankets to protect his stomach.The fact that the Corbett party would to-day make demands upon the Olympic club was printed this morning, and us Sullivan read the paper he called the attention of Casey to the matter, but himself expressed no concern.Sullivan, when questioned, positively refused to give any opinion.He breakfasted in his room, and at 10 o'clock went to the gymnasium.A light round of exercise this afternoon was the last for the champion before the battle.The intervening time will be devoted to treshening up and rest from the tension of the long training.To-Night\u2019s Big Struggle.The fight between Sullivan and Corbett, which takes place to-night, is exciting more interest in the United States and Canada, than cholera bacillus, or the presidential election.The battle of the light-weights last night even created a surprising interest in Montreal, and The Herald telephone was kept busy at answering enquiries concerning the result all evening.The news was received last night by rounds at Harry Gil- chen\u2019s, and his place was overcrowded to such an extent that about fifty people were compelled to stand outside on the pavement.The news of to-night\u2019s battle will also be received at Gilchen\u2019s, as well as at the Turf Rooms, St.James street.The Lyceum Theatre management have put in a special wire and the news will be received there also by rounds.If the fight lasts longer than the performance, the news will be given in the foyer afterwards.The feeling in Montreal is that Sullivan will win and $100 to $75 seems to be about the odds offered.There has been considerable money already wagered, and one well- known sporting man holds eighteen bets of $100 to $75 on the result.Besides there are any amount of smaller bets, A special telegraph wire direct from New Orleans has been put into Mr.Theo.Lanc- tot\u2019s hotel, corner of Sanguinet and Ste.Catherine streets, and this evening the details of the big tight between Sullivan and Corbett will be reported round by round.LACROSSE, Lacrosse in the Wholesale Houses, Lacrosse among the wholesale houses is becoming quite an institution, and there ia a good deal of bantering going on in wholesale houses concerning the merits of the different teams.E.A.Small & Co.\u2019s team have already defeated Jas.(\u2019Brien\u2019s team, and on Saturday, on

Wingfield and Justice of the Peace Hugh Miller, on the charge of aggravated assault on John C.Warbrick, during the championship match here on Saturday, The complainant described the assault, swearing that Stuart struck him a terrific blow on the left temple and immediately another on the nose, knocking him down.He swears further that he was kicked, but he could not swear that it was Stuart that kicked him.He was suffering still from the assault, which had cansed him much pain and was entirely unprovoked.N.G.Biglow, M.P.P., appeared for the defence and severely cross-examined War- brick, but did not shake his testimony.Joseph Tait, M.P.P., gave evidence as an eye-witness, and others deposed as to the injuries.Stuart is out on bail.A full line of six, seven, and eight dollar nts all reduced to four dollars.All the Pest shades and colors.Inspection invited.M.J.Adler, 47 Beaver Hall Hill.SPORTING EVENTS.The Bel-Air Jockey Club\u2019s Coming Fall Meeting.Sheepshead Bay Resuits and

22nd and 24th inst.The Bel-Air Club also deserve credit for giving encouragement to hunting men.A hunters flat handicap, 1} miles, is fixed for Saturday the 24th inst.for quali- tied hunters in 1891

that have been purchased lately, and will be seen at Bel-Air on the flat and across country, at the coming meeting.If the club could see fit to give a steeplechase for halfbreds we feel certain it would attract a large number of entries and be a most popular race.Yesterday's Races by the Sea.[Special to The Herald.] Bheepshead Bay, Sept.6.\u2014 The races here to-day resulted as follows :

forgotten that the honor of being the first club to race under the rules wus the Longueuil Club, and it would be only a fitting remembrance on behalf of the sport loving public if they cordially

and with that view the Harbor Master will be instructed to cooperate with the proper Medical officer in working out all proper precautions for the safety of the port.\u201d Application was made by certain residents at Longueuil, for a berth at the Bonsecours Market wharf for the steamer Island Queen, which is intended to run between Montreal and Longueuil with passengers, This was referred to the Harbor Master to allot such berth (if he could do 80) on certain conditions.An application from Messrs.Harling, Ronald & Co.was received to be allotted five to six hundred feet of wharf frontage adjoining the lower Donaldson Line berth, with permission to erect sheds for the accommodation of cargo thereon.This for next season when they purpose having a regular line of steamers, with fixed dates of sailing.It was referred to the Harbor Master for re- ort.?With regard to the last paragraph The Herald representative called on Mr.Ronald, who stuted that the proposed line would include most of the vessels that had been run by the firm this year.They intend competing for the general freight traffic which will necessitate the erection of wharf sheds for the protection of perishable cargo.The new line will run on a fixed schedule between here and Liverpool.Port of Montreal.ARRIVED\u2014Sept.6.* Steamship Monkseaton, 1892, Beazley, Avonmouth, light;

and whereas a week ago three months\u2019 bills were qucted about 1} per cent, to-day the general quotation has been no better than 15- 16 per cent, while four months\u2019 bills are about 13-16.With regard to six months\u2019 bills, there has been a little more firmness than in other descriptions, and the rate today is unchanged, compared with a week ago, at 2} to 2} per cent.Just at present there appears little probability of any improvement in the prospects of the market, and itis difficult to see where an improvement in the position is to come from.Next week there will be a Stock Exchange settlement; but, judging from the amount of business since the last account, the requirements for mouey will be exceptionally small.On Monday applications will be received for £1,000,0000f Treasury Bills, ] to be paid for of the following Saturday ; but as £890,000 in three months\u2019 bills fall due for payment on the same day, only £110,000 will be taken off the market.Gold has continued in demand throughout the week for Continental account, but the inquiry is confined to the open market, and the Bank received £271,000 in gold from abroad during the week on Wednesday uight.On the Continent there have been no movements in discount rates beyond a slight fall in Paris, where the rate for the three months\u2019 bill is now only 1 per cent.Grand Trunk Railway.Return of traffic week ending Sept.3, 1892 : ;

mouillie rules very quiet, thing on the board, especially lard for October delivery, which declmed about 30 cents per 100.Ribs appear to be the highest article to trade in, the price was sustained by few large traders.The same parties, however, were said to be supporting lard, and it may be, should hogs become any way numerous, these parties will become tired of holding onto ribs.They seem to be a little out of the line of other articles.Messrs.Lamontagne, Clarke & Co.,183 St.James street, have received the following by direct wire from Messrs.Counselman & Day, Chicago: The grain markets opened weak under ressure to sell, arrivals which had accumu.ated for 48 hours, and the influences of cables ;.weather and cholera news were slightly in buyers\u2019 favor.A firmer feeling prevailed later on better second cables, a smaller visible increase than expected, and reports to receiving houses that loadings in the country would fall off after this week.Wheat rallied fc from the break, and closed 4 higher on buying led by the Southwest.Corn closed easy at fc decline on sellin of futures against purchases of car lots, anc some selling of October corn bought by local speculators at the opening.Oais rallied sharply on appearances of manipulation of Neptemter futures and closing stiff at about outside figures.Provisions opened depressed by cholera news, and early estimates of large receipts of hogs to-morrow.At the decline there was a general inclination to buy pork, but later the enlarged estimates of hog arrivals and an open attempt to unload October lard by the Cudahys prevented much of a rally, Packers were liberal buyers of January stuff.The situation in ribs is unchanged.Chieago Notes.Messrs.Meredith and O'Brien received the following over their private wire to-day: Charters were: Wheat, 117,000 bushels ;

A Fruitless Session of the Montreal City Council.Time Again Wasted Over the Plourde Horse Case\u2014All the Old Arguments Rehashed\u2014 An Important Offer from Mr.Mann Re Incinerators, but They Hadn't * Time\" to Deal With It.The City Council assembled has one more shown its ability how not to do it.The special order of the day was \u2018\u2018for the lst, 2nd and 3rd reading of a by-law concerning the establishment of an Electric Passenger Railway.\u201d One would have thought,seenig the great importance this question is to the city, that all others would be allowed to rest in peace and a proper by-law for the protection of the citizens devised.This, however, was not the case and judging from the amount of speechifying indulged by some of the civic representatives it would seem as if the passing of the bydaw was the last thing they required.Any and every petty obstacle that could be thrown in its way was dished up, with an ardency more worthy of a better cause, seeing that they only resulted in a lot of disgraceful wrangling, intermixed with personal allusions not at all respectful to either party, and a sorry exhibition of aldermanic wisdom.After several reports had been read and summarily disposed of, the Mayor opened up what proved to be the boomerang of the afternoon and put a stop to the legitimate business for which the meeting was called.All have heard of the \u2018\u2018 Plourde horse,\u201d and when the Mayor read a letcer from Mr.Robb, the treasurer, asking for instructions as to what he should do in the matter\u2014pay the 3600 damages or still hold on\u2014it caused a ripple of excitement amongst the aldermen, and it could casily be seen that & scrimmage was on the tapis, and such it proved to be of the most virulent nature so ar a8 linguistic argument was concerned.The same old ground was traversed over and over again, during which the mayor did not spare the legal department for the loose way In which, according to his opinion, they had conducted the investigation.To sum up shcrtly, the afternoon was entirely wasted so far as any business was concerned.Ald.Germain, the chairman of the Health Committee, was a very irate man when he found that he could not get nis fellow confreres to devote a few moments to the consideration of that important question, the incinerators.The Mavor presided and there were also resent, Ald.Hurtubise, Cresse, Dagenais, Stearns, Beausoleil, Savignac, Brunet, Wilson, Kennedy, Villeneuve, Nolan, Germain, A.Dubuc, Griffin, Perreault, Hurteau, Clendinneng, Gauthier, Lamarche, Grenier, MeBride, Farrell, Dufresne, Tansey, Rain- ville, Conroy, Stevenson, Jeannotte and Rolland.The minutes were first read by the City Clerk in a tone which could not be heard by most of the aldermen, but who, in their wisdom, gave a unanimous assent to their being signed by the Mayor in the most ludicrous innocence.A letter was then read from Mr.Mann, the scavenging contractor, in which he offered to supply sites and erect incinerators capable of cremating the garbage of the city for the next ten years in three quarters of the city, viz., north, east and west.He promised, if the Council agreed to his proposal, to have them in full working order in four weeks, the price to be agreed upon at a later period.Riis proposal met with considerable favor from the aldermen, who thought they saw a way of ridding themselves of a bugbear, which had clung to then for a considerable time.Cries of \u201cthat\u2019s a good proposal\u201d were heard from several quarters, but in the Jorder of things it was left over until as some of them fondly hoped a later hour in the day when it could be decided upon, but such was not the case, and it will be specially dealt with next Monday.A letter was next read from Dr.Lachapelle, chairman of the Provincial Board of Health, in which he complained of the apathy of the council in dealing with the incinerator question, and expressed a hope that it would be decided upon at an early period, as the health of the city was endangered.He also called the council's attention to the need of w qualified sanitary engineer.This was also laid onthe table, the aldermen\u2019scountenances being a perfect study of stolid solemnity as the fatal words were uttered by the Mayor.A letter was next read from the pres\u2018dent of the Chambre de Commerce, asking the Mayor to call a public meeting of citizens to pass a resolution requesting the Lieut.- Governor in view of the apathy of the Dominion Government to take stringent mea- pures to prevent the cholera coming tothe Province of Quebec.The letter was laid on the table.Ald.Beausoleil then moved that the City charter he amended in connection with municipal elections, so as to read that the Mayor and twelve aldermen be elected annually instead of, as it at present reads, the whole of the Council.He also asked that the City Attorney be empowered to act acccordingly, and to notify the Legislature of the same.He further olaimed that the subsidy of $10,000 granted to the St.John\u2019s fund was an illegal act on the council's part, as they were not authorized to do so under the charter.Ie concluded by asking that the City Attorney be authorized to notify the.Legislature of the changes required.A long discussion ensued, ending in the City Attorney being called in to answer Ald.Beausoleil, which he did by bearing out the contentions raised as being perfectly correct in their bearing, but thought the Council would have no trouble in procuring the necessary legislation.A vote was taken and the motion carried by 18 for and 13 against.The Mayor next read a telegram which he had received from Vice-Admiral Hopkins saying that the warship Maaicienne would arrive in Montreal from Quebec about tomorrow morning, and would probably stop 2 week.The warship Tartar would arrive ebout the 14th inst., and probably stay two weeks.The Mayor said he hoped the officers and sailors would be given a hearty welcome.This was met with cries of * Aye, aye.Ald.Stevenson said he had been told by the chairman of the Harbor Commissioners that the lowest depth of water in the channel was 30 feet, and seeing that the warship only drew 26 feet he hoped the Mayor would use his best endeavors to get the Admiral to bring his magnificent flagship up to Montreal.If would be a great treat to the citizens in general to view one of the latest models of naval warfare.(Applause.) The Mayor then asked the Council's permission to wire the Admiral to that effect, and a unanimous assent was given.The Mayor sent the telegram off during the afternoon.Ald.Stevenson arose and said he hoped the misunderstanding which arose during the late visit of the French ships would be rectified, viz.: the aldermen not being notified of the time when the mayor paid his official visit, whereby they were unable to be present.He suggested that they be notified in the future, so that they could attend his worship on the occasion, The Mayor promised to do so.The Mayor then with a most serious countenance read a letter from Mr.Robb to the council saying that he had acted on the Mayor\u2019s advice and retained the $600 voted to Mr.Plourde for damage to his horse and buggy on the Mountain.Carried, said the Mayor, but he was a little too previous as immediately there arose numerous cries of \u201cno,\u201d \u201cno.\u201d Mayor-\u2014Shall the Mayor be sustained.This led up to a discussion which was anything but creditable to the civie representatives.The same ol! arguments were raked up again, and for over two hours the Council Chamber resembled N bear garden.At 5 o'clock Ald.McBride moved, seconded by Ald.Stevenson, that the council do now adjourn.lt was carried by the casting voted the Mayor.FRIENDS.The Prizes Distributed, The prizes for the bean guess, which took place at the labor picnic op Monday, were announced last evening by the committee, which met in Ville Marie hall.Mr.Lan.glois had two tickets, Nos.535 and 540, on which he guessed 1,600 and 1,650.The bottle contained 1,61] beans; his two guesses being the nearcst to the number in the bottle he received the prizes, which were two sewing machines, one for first and one for the second.The prizes for the other ames were distributed to the winners by Ir.P.J.Ryan and Mr.Boudreau, The Old Pilot Buried.The funeral of Thalarake Rice, best known us Baptiste, the Lachine rapids pilot, took place at Caughnawaga yesterday morning, His Grace, the Archbishop of Montreal, officiating.Baptiste was 82 years old, and leaves a widow and nine living children, all of whom are married.In all, his progeny reaches the total of seventy souls.Montrealers to Deal in Mines.The North America Mining Company is the name of an organization for which provincial letters patent are now being applied for.The charter members are Messrs.Alphonse Bayard, Cote Visitation; Arthur Yale, superintendent of the East End abattoirs, Hochelaga; F.Bayard, and A.Montreuil, butchers, Montreal; and G.N.Du.charme, Ste.Cunegonde.The capital stock is to be $200,000.Mr.Brosseau is Missing.It is claimed that Mr, Julien Brosseau, the Custoin House officer at the C.P.R.depot, is a defaulter, and that he is now in the United States.It has been known for some time that he was short in his accounts, but he made several efforts to striaghten matters, He would have continued in his position and paid back his shortage, but the Minister of Customs refused to allow this.It is not yet known what the exacte amount of the defalcation will reach, but it will likely be under $2,000.Lake Ontario Passengers, The following passengers sail on the Lake Ontario this morning for Liverpool: A.L.Amys, Miss Allen, Frank Ball, Mrs.Ball, E.Ball, Miss Brown, Mrs.H.C.Beadnell, Mrs.R.Bridge, Miss Bridge, Mrs.A.E.Evans, Miss N.Evans, Mrs.G.Grant, Master Grant and maid, George Gane, Dr.W.Gauthier, James R.D.Graham, Mrs.James R.D.Graham, Miss Heath, Miss FE.Heath, Miss Jephcott, Dr.Lichtwitz, Fred King, Mrs.Jas.Macaulay and child, L.Orr, J.A.Pope, Miss Rosethorne, James Slessor, Mrs.Wm.Spraggle, H.Spraggle, Mrs.Tyler, D.U.T.Valentine, Mrs, M.À.G.Williams, J.W.Windle.Le Monde\u2019s New Management.Le Monde yesterday passed into the hands of its new proprietors, Messrs.Senecal and Poitras, and will, hereafter, be run as the organ of Messrs.Ouimet and Nantel.Mr.Senecal was formerly superintendent of the Government Printing Bureau at Ottawa, and attained considerable notoriety by reason of the revelations before the Commons\u2019 comtuittees in 1891.He will be the new advertising agent and manager, occupying the position until now filled by Mr.Alfred Lionais.The Monde was last evening enlarged by a column on each page and further improvements are promised.Delegates to the Labor Congress.The Canadian Pacific train for the West last night, bore to Toronto the Montreal and Quebec delegates to the Dominion Trades and Labor congress, which meets in the Queen city to-day.The Montreal dele- ates were Messrs.Urbain Lafontaine, L.Z.oudreau and P.J.Ryan, Central Trades and Labor council ; J.A.Rodier, District 19, Knights of Labor ; Louis Guy- on, Ville Marie Assembly ; Jos.Beland, Mount Royal Assembly; C.Malhiot and R.Platt, Plasterers\u2019 Union; F.St.Pierre, Jacques Cartier Typographical Union; P.Duffy, W.Darlington and J.Goodfellow, District 18, K.of L.: R.Keys, Dominion Assembly.The delegates from Quebec were : Messrs.D.Marsan, P.J.Jobin, W.Guthrie, E.Little, F.Pichette, J- T.Quinn, S.B.St.Laurent, G.Marois and F.Marois.The meetings of the Congress will be held in the new Legislative Assembly Chamber, and the delegates will be given a reception at the City Hall.The Montreal and Quebec delegates are pledged to support the choice of Cornwall for next year\u2019s meeting, but the western men want it to be held at St.Thomas.The Board Organized.The new Central Board of Health of the Province, just appointed by the Loca!

being run over by an express waggon, and the second was to Desrivicres street for an old man who fell in a fit at his Lome SUSPECTED OF ARSON.Some Light May be Thrown on the Longue Point Disaster.In the Police Court yesterday Michael Morency, a former Montrealer, who for a vear past has resided in New York, was arraigned on suspicion of larceny.Pleading not guilty, he was remanded to jail for three days.The arrest, which was made by Detective Barrett, promises some startling developments, as the charge made against the accused serves as but a cover for the far more ser:cus one of arson, as it is believed that the accused was the author of the recent outbreak of fire in Mount St.Louis college.Nor is this all, for Morency, when Fire Commissioners Perry and Poirier got through their investigation, may be ssked if he can throw any light onthe Longue Pointe asylum catas.rophe of two years ago., The grounds on which the officers found their suspicions are briefly as follows: About eighteen months ago Morency was engaged as a porter by the Rev.Brothers of Mount St, Louis, and remained in their employ for over & year, when he left, under somewhat suspicious circumstances it is said.He then went to the States and only returned to Montreal three weeks ago.While not apparently badly iz want of work; not even intending to reside in Montreal, he still applied at the college to be given back his old position, but this refused.Then he got some outside influence to bear on the brothers, the result being that he was finally taken back.He only held his old situation for four days, however, but short though the time was there were no less than five mysterious outbreaks of fire at the institution during the period.Suspicion falling on Morency through the investigations of Detective Barrett, he was promptly discharged.He continued to hang around the college, however, in company with a couple of loafers, and the actions of the trio were most suspicious.This action on his part finally led to his arrest.When made a prisoner a number of keys of the college were found in his possession, for which fact he could offer but the poorest kind of an explanation.The police theory of the keys, however, is that the accused knowing that the students returning after the holidays were likely to be well supplied with money, thought with the keys in his possession to start a blaze and then make a ood haul with outside assistance, Since the arrest the detective, continuing his investigation, has ascertained that Morency was engaged as a keeper at Longue Pointe asylum just fifteen days before the outbreak of the memorable fire, which it is said was first noticed in the ward under the control of the present suspect.The whole matter is now to be thoroughly investigated and the case will be watched with deep interest.FRIENDS.HARBOR MANAGERS.They Were Present With Facts and Figures at Yesterday\u2019s Meeting.At the weekly meeting of the Harbor Commissioners the

town council are wide awake to the necessity of keeping the town in a thoroughly clean and healthy condition.Mr.Page, the health officer of the mumici- pality, is always active in the interests of sanitation, and as an extra precaution he starts to-day on a minute and careful inspection of all the back premises and outdoor closets on every street under his control, He has been authorized to take summary proceedings against all and sundry whose premises are not in a sanitary condition, and who after three days\u2019 notice have not rectified the abuse complained of.In connection with the

St.Cunegonde, Dr.Cypot, together with a brother physician and the Inspector of the Health Department, visited the dumps yesterday and found them in a thoroughly satisfactory condition.FRIENDS.THE MONTREAL HERALD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1 | SIR JOHN REPLIES.The State of His Health Prevented an Earlier Answer.The members of the Health committee held a short meeting yesterday afternoon before the Council sat.There were present Messrs.Ald.Dr.Germain (in the chair), Hurtean, Gauthier, Tansey, Clendinneng and Beausoleil.Notwithstanding the short space of time at their disposal the committee got through a lot of necessary routine matters, and on motion of Ald.Stearns it was decided to have all mail and express goods fumigated, no matter from whence they come.The chairman then said that he had received a reply from Premier Abbott in response to one sent by him as a chairman of the Health committee, requesting the immediate appointment of port physicians at various points on the river.He might state that the reply was anything but a favorable one, seeing the gravity of the position, which was placed in their hands.It was as follows : , DEAR SIR: I regret that absence from home has prevented my receiving your letter till yes- day.and as the state of my health prevents the possibility of my seeing my colleagues at this moment, I have enclosed your letter to the minister charged with she duties of quarantine with the request that he will give it as 1auch consideration as is possible within the space of his jurisdiction.Very truly yours, J.J.C.ABBOTT.A.Germain, Esq.,Chairman Board of Health, Montreal, The reading of this epistle caused some adverse criticism amongst the members, who, knowing the fate of that simple word ¢ consideration \u201d in connection with Cabinet ministers and the departments at Ottawa, felt their request would take a very long consideration indeed if the present apathy shown by the Government in this grave crisis is any criterion.However, the matter was allowed to remain on the table for a short time to see if any action would be taken by the Dominion authorities.If not, the board will act stringently, as circumstances may arise.SLASHED HIS THROAT.An ex-Montreal General Hospital Porter Taken Back in the Ambulance.A.Porter, who resides at No.1 Mount Charles place, and who for a number of years has been employed as porter at the Montreal General hospital, made a desperate attempt at suicide at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon by cutting his throat with a razor.It appears that the unfortunate man has been drinking heavily for a couple of weeks, which, it is atated, led to his dismissal by the hospital authorities.At the hour named yesterday during the temporary absence of is wife from the room in which he was he took the opportunity to secure a razor {rom a bureau drawer, and as his wife re-entered the apartment he made a determined attempt at self-destruction by slashing at his throat with the keen blade.Mrs.Porter, horrified at her husband\u2019s awful act, rushed on him and heroically endeavored to wrest the weapon from her crazed husband\u2019s hand.In the struggle that ensued she, too, was seriously cut about the hands and arms by the razor, but she finally sucoeeded in securing the weapon, not, however, before Porter had inflicted a gaping wound in\u2019 his throat.The cries of the wife for help being heard, the neighbors came to her assistance and summoned the ambulance of the General hospital, to which institution the would-be suicide was removed.At a late hour last night Porter was in a precarious condition, but the physicians of the hospital had strong hopes of saving his life.Partially Paralyzed.Owen Guhyall, 22 years of age, residing at 30 St.Maurice street, and employed as an express driver by Frank King, is at the General Hospital with a seriously injured spine, the result of a singular accident.While driving through an archway on Seigneurs street yesterday atternoon he was crushed between the beam over the gate and the wagon, and partially paralyzed.At the hospital he refused to take ether to permit the surgeons to perform an operation, and it is not improbable his death will result from his injuries.In connection with this accident it will be remembered that an accident almost precisely similar occurred to a driver of an express wagon some few weeks ago, in which the injury was to the spine, the unfortunate victim of which died of his injuries in the General Hospital.No Free Rid es toCornwall, An old man who gave his name as Cho- quette told a pitiful story at police headquarters yesterday.He said he, his wife and children were absolutely poverty stricken.Wishing to reach friends in the country they sold their few belongings, but only got enough to pay the passage of the mother and children.He got on the boat thinking the captain would take him free, but he was put ashore at the Lachine locks.His story was told with tears in his eyes at his enforced separation from wife and children, and Constaule Lacroix started a subscription among the policemen, the proceeds of which made the old man happy, and started him on his way to join his family.Court of Queen\u2019s Bench Doings.The entire time of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench was taken up yesterday with the continuation of the trial of the Arabian who is accused of stealing a registered letter by forging the name of the woman to whom the letter was addressed.The evidence adduced during the day was substantially the same as was heard at the preliminary investigation in the Police Court which was reported in The Herald at the time.The prosecution closed shortly after the noon recess, after which Mr.Ceofirion opened for the defence, which bids fair to occupy the time of the court the greater part of to day.FRIENDS.Another Missing Girl.Another young girl has mysteriously disappeared from her home and parents and friends who are unable to assign any cause for her absence, are deeply concerned as to her whereabouts.The name of the missing girl is Maria Era, 17 years of age, who resided with her parents at 136 Roy street.She was last seen Monday morning looking at the Labor Day parade.She ie fair complexioned, with blue eyes and remarkably pretty.When she left her home she wag dressed in pink cashmere with satin front and wore a black laced trimmed hat.The detectives have been placed so the case and are sparing no pains to find some trace of the lost girl.Four Burglaries Reported.Burglais are at present getting in some fine work in Montreal and vicinity.No less thau four were reported to the police yesterday, as occurring on the previous night.The first was at the residence of Mr, T.R.Barton, at Outremont.There the thieves forced an entrance through a front window and among other articles carried off were à I gold breast piu, valuable cameo brooch and a gold pencil.The next reported was that at the residence of Mr.Superion, on Cadieux street where the thieves secured a gold watch and a gold filled case watch and a plaited chain, and got off with their booty without arousing the family.The next reported was a burglary at the business premises of Messrs.Poirier, Brissette and Neville, stationers on Craig street.Their entrance was effected through a window on Fortification lane.The robbers broke open the till and secured the money it contained, but overlooked a large quantity of postage stamps in the same drawer.They must have been disturbed in their work, however, as ;they left without meddling with the safe, and left some of their tools behind.The fourth case reported was the entrance to a Craig street second-hand store, but although the premises were thoroughly ransacked, the proprietor thought nothing of value had been taken, | BREVITIES.union will have a picnic Monday next.rainbow was bout 7 o'clock The St.Joseph\u2019 at Sohmer park on The curiosity of a triple visible in the southern sky 8 last
