that the old law of Mortmain makes it imperative that such bequests shall be made at least six months before the death ol the donor.As the Act incorporating McMaster University, assented to on 23rd of April last, does not come into effect till November first, the special powers setting aside the statutes of Mort- main have not yet come into force, and the will will therefore likely be declared null and void.: \u2014 > ._\u2014_____ HEUROPEHEAN-.When Will Poland Get Home Rule?BERLIN, Sept, 28\u2014The Government has forbidden the use of the Polish language in the Prussian Polish schools.Epidemic

Charles E.Courtney and George Bubear.The race was a mile and a half and return, for $1,000 a side and was won by Courtney.Bubear had a few feet the advantage at ilie start, but was quickly overhauled by Courtney and then the men kept almost abreast until at the turning buoys; here Courtney made a far better turn than Bubrar and gained a length.This position was held until within about 150) feet of the finish, when Bubear spurted and reduced the lead half a length.Courtney responded and with a few vigorous strokes regained the lead which he had lost.When the shells crossed the line there was about a foot of daylight between them.Courtney's time was 19m.33s.Bubear appeared somewhat exhausted, while Courtney was fresh and smiling.Bubear\u2019s most rapid stroke was 38 to the minute.Courtney at no time exceeded 33- About 5,000 people witnessed the race.As soon as Courtney reached his hotel he was met by Peter Duryea, of New York, Bubear\u2019s backer, and challenged for another race to be

says :\u2014It appears to us that the race yesterday was sailed fairly and squarely as any race could be sailed.The course was not clear, because a clear course with so many accompanying yachts would have been 8 physical impossibility.Both boats suffered from crowding, but in the opinion of impartial observers each suffered equally.The Thistle got the best of the start, but falilng astern her progress was slightly impeded by the pursuing and overtaking excursion sicamers.Alter this first hour of the race, however, she had no reason to complain, for all the fleet flocked around the Volunteer, and only the Mohican was left to convey tbe Thistle on her rather lonely way.We entertain a sincere belief that the Thistle people have undervalued the ability of the Volunteer, and perhaps this may be more fully demonstrated in the outside races.The Tribune says if the America\u2019s cup is ever to go back tothe country trom which it was originally captured 37 yvars ago, apparently a fleeter boal than the Thistle must come and take it.Her defeat yesterday was severer than that received by the Genesta, although the weather that prevailed was just what she bargained for and what she was supposed to desire.Her superiority in light winds was regarded ss established, but from the moment she made that surprising tack in shore until the Volunteer came up at Fort Wadsworth, at the finish, the honors of the race were all with the sloop.The Thistle is clearly no match for the Volunteer in windward work.She must be numbered among the other viciims of Mr.Burgess\u2019 amazing skill in modelling crafts, that skim along in the teeth of the wind.The World says :\u2014No one who saw the race doubts that it demonstrates to a certainty the superiority of the Volunteer over her rival.All the drawbacks the Thistle encountered could not have made any material difference in the result.The Times says :\u2014The Thistle was interfered with by the steamers yesterday, but that she was no match for the Volunieer in the light breeze was clearly shown when they were under the same conditions and when neither was crowded.NEW YORK GOSSIP ON THE RACE.NEw YORK, September 28.\u2014Mr.Watson, designer of the yacht Thistle, said to-day he had applied at two ship yards for a dry dock, but both were unable to accommodate the Thistle.The general belief in yachting circles is that the Thistles bottoniis all right.Supt.Dickey of the Brooklyn Dry Dock sald to-day :\u2014** There is nothing the matter with the bottom of the Thistle.The paint used on her is the best known, is a quick drier and not at all likely to blister in the water at the present temperature.Mr.Bell, the principal owner of the Thistle, said this morning they were by no means despondent.He admittéd that when the Volunteer caught the breeze at the start and put such a stretch of water between the boats, he knew it was all up with the Thistle.* Of course we are all greatly disappointed at the result,\u201d said Mr.Bell, * but it was undoubtedly due to the error of judgment at the start.It was the fortune of war, and we can only hope for better results to-morrow.\u201d Nothing will be done in the way of changing the sails of the Thistle, as they are considered as nearly perfect as they can be made.It was the opinion among sporting men this morning that there would be praciically no berting upon tomorrow\u2019s contest.Several Bostonians were offering to bet 100 to 30 on the Volunteer and there weie no takers.glachismen talked all day long about the race.All agreed that the Volunteer had proved herself a better boat than the Thistle, although it was generally admitted that the Victory of the Yankee boat was not really so decisive as would appear from glancing at the figures of the race.The Yuchismen recognized that the Scotch boat had beaten the Volunteer\u2019s time on the run home and had held the sloop going out from buoy\u2019 to the Sandy Hook light-ship.It was inside buoy 5 that the race was won by the Volunteer, and the time she gained there, all agreed, was as much due to superb handling as to the merits of the boat.Still, allowing for the mistakes of Captain Barr\u2014and two of them were grievous errors\u2014it is probable that they did not make more than ten or eleven minutes difference in the race.With this allowance the Volunteer would still have seven minutes advantage of the Thistle over the course, and that about the actual ditfer- ence between Lhe yachts.WHAT THE CLYDESMEN SAY.LONDON, Sept.28.\u2014Yachtsmen of the Clyde are astounded at the result of yesterday\u2019s contest between the Thistle and the Volun- \u2018evr, and the majority are despondent respecting the result of the series of races.Many blame Captain Barr, of the Thistle, for standing iu too close Lo land, and reason that it was by doing so he lost yesterday's race.Captain Campbell, of the yacht Silene, says that he remains hopeful of the result, and claims that the Thistle\u2019s best chances are in the outside or ocean race.Washed Away by a Water Spout.NEw LAREDO, Mex., Sept.23.\u2014Despatches were received giving the details of great destruction of

CASE.The seizure of Canadian vessels in the Behring Sea appears to be as simple a case of violation of infernational law as could well occur, and one in which the proper course of action by the injured nation was obvious.These vessels were seized at a distance of over sixty miles from land by American Government revenue cutters in the name of the United States, but really at the instigation of the Alaska Fur Company.The vessels were taken in to Alaska, their cargoes confiscated and their masters and crew imprisoned on the sentence of one Judge Dawson, the U.3.Judge of the District of Alaska.Correspondence took place on the subject between the Governments of Canada, England, and the United States.Explanation of any kind was postponed by Mr.Bayard, the U.S.Foreign Secretary, until a full report could be received from Judge Dawsun, In the meantime an assurance was given that the vessels would \u2018be released and proceedings against the crews stopped, and that no more seizures would be made until the question of right had been settled.An order was sent by Attorney-General Garland to release the captured vessels and discontinue proceedings against the crew.Judge Dawson, of Alaska, gave orders for the release but immediately afterwards recalled that order, on the plea that possibly the telegram from Washington ordering the release was a forgery.Subsequent to this further seizures were made.The United States made these geizures by reason of their claim that having purchased Alaska from the Russian Government they argued the right to prevent anyone sealing in the Behring sea, although such claim covers the Pacific ocean for several hundred miles to sea.When this claim was put forward by Russia it was repudiated by the United States, promptly and plainly, but the claim which the United States denied when advanced by Russia is now made by themselves on the ground that they acquired it from Russia.Great Britain, however, has refused to recognize such right as claimed, and the press of the United States, as well as the decision of a former U.8.Cabinet Minister, ure against it.It is unnecessary to go further into this phrase of the matter ; it is suflicient to say that Great Britain declines to admit the claim as being opposed to international law and her own rights, just as the United States did when the cluim was made by Russia.Under the circumstances, the question was one to be settled without delay by the Governments of Great Britain and the United States.The question is a simple one : does the United States intend to sustain the contention that a nation could acquire the right from another to exclusive possession of an open sea of several hundred miles in width and length, and does Great Britain intend to concede this?The proceedings of the Alaskan court Lad nothing to do with the question, and the delay of fourteen months was unnecessary and improper.The question is distinct from any other open question between the two nations and involves rights which are not exclusive to the United Kingdom.During the delay and while the action of the diplomatists was sucli us to increase instead of shortening that, Canadian vessels are seized, Canadians imprisoned and the trading rights of the Dominion molested.The course that Sir John Macdonald should have adopted was to press for an immediate cessation of these seizures, with restitution and reparation to the persons already injured.He had nothing to do with the\u201dprocedure of the Alaska court or any other American court.Great Britain contends that the United States Government has no more jurisdiction outside the three mile limit in Belring sea than it has in the sea of Azof, and therefore does not admit any right of the American courts in the matter.But it appears that Sir John and Mr.Foster between them sent a Mr.Drake, Q C, to Alaska to take action in the court there on behalf of the captured sealers.He reports that he bas appeared in the court there and filed \u201ca demurrer to the iufor- mation lodged against the masters and mates,\u201d and by doing so places Canada in the position of recognizing the jurisdiction of this Alaskan court.He states that he has made arrangement with tho United States Attorney regarding securities in case the Alaskan judge should adhere to his decision and an appeal should be asked for.What ig the interpretation to be placed on this ?If Sir John Macdonald causes Canada to appear as a litigant in the United States court, it is fuir to presume in such a case as this that the Jurisdiction of that court is admitted.Canada has nothing to do with the U.S.courts.The question is an international one in which we look to Great Britain to maintain her own and our rights and to do so by communication with the government of the United States.Canada\u2019s contention is that the seizure of her vessels was in point of fact an act of piracy, and to appear before the courts of the United States is a surrender of that contention.It is much to be feared that the long and unnecessary delay, the action of the Dominion Government in Alaska, and the several paragraphs in the Government journals which appear from time to time concerning the scope of the recently appointed commission\u2019s work is preparatory to another surrender of Canada's rights and interests.If this should prove to be so, the question will be asked and seriously considered, of what benefit is it to remain indefinitely in our present position of dependence in the British Empire.Tae Gazette continues to slur Hon.Mr.McShane.Thisis unkind.What would the Gluzette have amounted to for the last fortnight without Mr.McShane and the Quebec dinner for texts for editorials ?Our contemporary has had about a dozen editorials in this one subject ; it has, in fact.run it into the ground.The Gazette usually does this sort of thing.HON.MR.MERCIER.An Ontario exchange recently pul-lish- i ed the following estimate of Hon.Mr.Mercier :\u2014 First and foremost the fact is thrust upon us that the Quebec Liberals are led by a man who is unequalled as a party leader by any living Canadian, and for that matter, hus had no equal in this country,\u2014Sir Jobn Macdonald not excepted.Keen, vigorous intellect and great physical strength are combined together with remarkable energy and grace of manner.The enthusiasm that his presence awakens among our friends in the Province of Quebec is unprecedented.Almost before he utters a word they are ready to be persuaded or convinced that he is right.The skill, tact and shrewdness which he manifested during his campaign against the Ross- Taillon Government during the summer, autumn and winter of 1886 has marked his every step since he became Premier of the Province.His complete overthrow of the former Government on the first day of the session, in spite of their cat-like clinging to office, was but the prelude of the victories, electoral and financial, which he has since won.Even the Legislative Council with its almost unanimous Conservative vote, seems weakening and tottering before him, and the probability is that in the ensuing session a Liberal majority will be given in a House where eight years ago not one solitary Liberal held a seat.The Mercier Administration with its Napoleonic Premier seems destined for many years to hold the reins of power.Every by-election is carried by the Government; Conservative seat after Conservative seat is wrested from the somewhat dilapidated Opposition, headed, or should we not rather give M.Taillon more credit, as in retreats the rear is the post of honor, and say, followed ?\u2014 in the vain attempt to protect its shattered columns by the former lordly Attorney-General for the Province of Quebec.This estimate of a successful leader is by no means an exaggeration.It is fully justified by Mr.Merciers talents and conduct, not only as leader of the Quebec Government but as leader of the Quebec Opposition.While Mr.Mercier\u2019s strokes have been more brilliant as the head of the Gegernment, it must not be forgotten that it was to his masterly lead of the Opposition, his magnificent courage in most depressing circumstances, his skilful use of the material which fortune and his own industry supplied, that Quebec owes the recent change of Government.The condition of the Opposition when Mr.Mercier w as called to the leadership was most disheartening, and it was some time before light broke upon the darkness which enveloped the small band of Opposition- ists in the Quebec Legislature.A man of fewer resources and less energy, with less confidence in his own abilities and the people\u2019s sound judgment, might have given up the combat as hopeless and yielded to the pressure of that organized corruption which kept the Tories in office for so many years.But Mr, Mercier\u2019s plans were comprehensive.He never repulsed any who were willing to join hands with him for the defeat of the common enemy.He welcomed all recruits, so long as they came with an honest purpose.His large-heartedness, his magnetic manner, and the fairness with which he treated both friends and foes attached men to his person and led thousands to link their political fortunes with his, for weal or woe, A leader of -Uncommon ability.he has never failed to notice the efforts of the humblest of his followers when employed for the party\u2019s advancement.By such means as these Mr.Mercier laid in opposition the basis of his present triumphant administration, and however brilliant he may be as the leader of a Goverment he will not surpass the display of great qualities which ade him the most skilful leader of an Opposition that Canada has yet seen, eee SALE OF A PUBLIC OFFICE.The Muil withdraws its statement that Mr, John Wallace, ex-M.P.for Abbott County, N.B., was rewarded by an appointment to the Custom House, for standing aside to let Professor Weldon be elected for the constituency.The Mail does wrong to back down.Mr.Wallace wus 80 rewarded.The Collector of Customs at Hillsboro was a comparatively recent appointment, and a new appointment was unnecssary.Mr.Wallace was disqualified by his age from being appointed to the Civil Service; he wus wholly unsuited to the duties.His only chance of earning a thousand a year was by running for Parliament.The seat was wanted for Professor Weldon, a gentleman superior in every way to Mr.Wallace.The latter had to be got rid of, as his friends were bound to run him unless he was provided for by the Government.To ensure the seat for Prof- Weldon, Mr.Wallace\u2019s friends were guaranteed an office for Mr.Wallace; they then fell into line and supported Prof.Weldon, who was elected.After the election, Mr.Wallace, contrary to the provisions of the Civil Service Act, was appointed Collector of Customs at Hills- boro, being entirely disqualified by age and otherwise for the appointment, and succeeding an officer who had held tho position for vuly a few years, and who, although a resident of Hillsboro, had to be provided for out of the county in order that the agreement with Mr.Wallace's friends might be carried out.People may give any name to the transaction that they please.These are the facts and they show how ready the Dominion Government are to barter away the public offices in order to secure political support.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 ABOVE POLITICS.Canadian manufacturers differ in respect to the value of Commercial Union or unrestricted trade reciprocity with the United States.While some regard the movement with fear and trembling, others hold that a new market of 60,000,- 000 of people is just what Canadian manufacturers need.Mr.John Forbes, who wus the principal founder, and for many years manager, of the Star Iron Manufacturing Works, of Halifax, says :\u2014 \u201cHe had supported the Conservative arty and believed in the National Pol- Icy, but that he was also heart and soul in favor of the Commercial Union movement.Ie had so expressed himself to President Parker, and had said that, irrespective of all party considerations or consequences, he would do all in his power to aid that movement along, as he believed that it would be of the utmost benelit to the industries of the Dominion.Any legitimate manufacturing establish- went in this country could not help being beuefited by having free access to the 60,000,000 of people over the border.It would be of vast benefit to our skilled mechanics, and would do more to wake up and develop industrial activity in the Provinces than anything that had yet been presented to the consideration\u201d of the public.\u201d Many Conservatives like Mr.Forbes are taking hold of the movement earnestly.They ice in it illimitable possibilities for the development of Canadian manufactures as well as the sale of Canadian natural products.They take a broad view of the commercial relations of the two countries, irrespective of party considerations, and they believe the time has come for a bold and sweeping interchange of trade.: \u2014\u2014 THE P.M.G.IN COURT.Before the Election Court that is trying the charges against the Postmaster- General McLellan, at Truro, N.S., his counsel made the following declaration and admission :\u2014 \u201c1 am instructed on behalf of the respondent to admit, a8 we have already admitted, bribery by an agent, sufficient under the Controverted Elections Act to void the election, in respect to which this petition is presented.At the same time I deny all personal knowledge on the part of the respondent of any such acts of bribery, and we shall resist the petition so far as it relates to personal charges.\u201d The charge of personal bribery being pressed, a Mrs.Weatherbee swore that the Postmaster-General promised her a present if she would get her son to vote for him.We are not told the form that the present was to take; so it may not have been anything of great value.It is unfortunate, however, that the law says nothing about value.A bribe is a bribe, and Mrs, Weatherbee charges the Postmaster-Gen- eral of Canada, an ex-Finance Minister with offering her a bribe with his own hand, rather with his own lips.A member of the Dominion Cabinet, making a personal canvass for votes, is not an edifying spectacle.The same high officer of State, accused of personally bribing the people, with such evidence as this to back up the charge, is not a great moral spectacle of which the country should be proud.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014e>\u2014e THE VOLUNTEER AND THISTLE.Once more the effort to recover the Queen's Cup has failed.That is to say, the first heat in the race hasbeen lost by the British vessel.She may of course win the next, and then the deciding heat, if \u201c heat\u201d is the correct word to use in a yacht race, but the detailed accounts of the race do not strengthen the hope that the Thistle is a faster boat than the Volunteer.It is much to be regretted, however, that the New York Yacht Club seems to be unable to obtain a clear course, and therefore a fair race for these recurring contests.The reports state that the yachts were much impeded by the excursion steamers, and that the Thistle suffered fron the wash of the steamboats.There is no danger of any one supposing that the object wags to impede the British yacht; it might just as well have been the other; but it seems strange that means cannot be found of ensuring a fair race against which no complaint can be made.The report speaks of both veesels \u201c running a gaunt- \u201clet of stearnbouts that remained per- \u201cgistently in the channel in spite of the \u201crepeated wurnings from the Electra and \u201cthe police boat patrol.\u201d We presume it would have been impracticable to have boarded these steamboats and pitched the captains overboard, as they deserved, but what is the police boat for unless there are soine means of punishing the men who for the sake of a few dollars do all they can to ruin the race?The United States, from Alaska to Florida, hope for the success of the Volunteer, but we believe that such hope is conditional on fair play being given to the other side.A stranger is and must be at a disadvantage in sailing the inside New York course, owing to the currents and winds peculiar to that land-locked water, but it is too bad that a parcel of selfish inud- scrapers should be allowed to destroy a friendly contest in which the people of two nations are keenly interested.It must, however, be admitted that in this connection both vessels are treated alike.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Now what about that hosemen\u2019s competition, Mr.Perry?Are the preparations all made?Will the city\u2019s firemen compete?If so, why doesn\u2019t the entertainment proceed?The citizens are waiting for it.The weather is everything that could be desired.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 CoMMERCIAL union would be a grand thing for The New York Gazette and other indecent publications which flourish openly on the other side, but which are seized and suppressed at the Canadian border line.Wipe out that line, in they come.\u2014(Toronto World.The World continues to believe in monopoly.Hence these tears.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 ee Hark Tr,

But they say we might have found the pieces in the lane,\u2014that gives us an idea We shall inspect the lane on the earliest op: portunity.One man declares that he believes they were really like the widow\u2019s cruse, oil bottles\u2014hair oil bottles, hair restorative, in fact.Well Perhaps they were, but Any man who would restore his hair to the extent of being obliged to spend half the night in firing away the bottles may have cause to wish that he hadn't restored it so much when his wife finds those broken bottles and goes for him ¢ bald-hcaded,\u201d as the Yankees say.He will probably regret that he is not still bald-headed himsolf, One thing we wish to have fulty understood we did not see or hear these bottles fired our- seives.We only heard of them having been thrown from a back gallery across the street or even on some other strect, in fact any- wherein the Cote.The only way to find out is by a thorough inspection of all back lanes.Perhaps some of our city sisters may take this hint.Difficult it isto hide the traces of, say, hair restorative even when used in the semmer seclusion\u2014which your wife's sojourn in the country grants.\u201cLike the vase in which roses have once been distilled.You may break, you inay skatter the bottles at will, but those pieces of bottles wiil hang around still.\u201d From bottles to may scem rather a rapid transaction, but babies usually love the bottle, a taste probably inherited from their fathers.Most of the late babies of a larger growth \u201chave a tancy for taking trips on the city cars to what they call the\u201c Mild End.\u201d The other weaning a small boy who had just returned with his nurse from a wild excursion of this kind seemed very fidgety, but rebelled against being sent to bed until at last his father exclaimed: \u201cIf you don\u2019t stop that noise, Bobby, I shall soon make an end of it.\u201d Then Bobby sleepily enquired\u2014* Win it be the \u2018\u201c Mild End or the Cote;St.Antoine end 2\u201d Of course his papa had to try to make an epi- grammadtic remark as to it certa nly being a Cote St.Antoine end, and Proba/».y fur from mild,\u201d but the point was evidently lost on Bobby replied that \u201c The Cote St.Antoine end was always far from the Mild End.\u201d MR.POTTER\u2019S SALE on Saturday proved very successful, lots on Stayner street bringing about twenty-five cents a foot, while those on Dorchester brought as high as forty.Quite a surprising advance, as lots east of Greene Avenue on Dorchester street were sold for thirty-five cents not long ago.Mr.Dumrord, of Greene Hythe, has just broken ground for a fine terrace on his property opposite Weredale Park, a most charm- ng situation and not likely to be built on \u2018 it may be for years and it may be forever \u201d\u2019\u2014at least forever in this generation.These are to be of the new sensible style with no basement flat, 80 that tenants won't be expected to \u2018eat thelr meat wich gladness and thankfulness of heart\u201d down in the cellar.Better a dinner of herbs and sunshine therewith than a stalled ox in the bowels of the earth.Mr.Fred Evany terrace on Greene Avenue is also on this comfortable plan, and will be about the finest terrace yet built in the Cote, besides being so charmingly and conveniently situated.Near (o city cars, near proposed C.P.R.station, near church, near school, near post-office, near shops, near everything except city sounds and smells, from which the Cote kindly detivers us.Yet to give the city its due, we do not believe it is to blame lor half the typhoïd and diphtheria Ta.u at its door.These diseases always break out Just after people get home trom (hg country where they have been building up their sys: tems on bad board at big prices; breathing country air tainted with bad drainage; drinking well-waler impregnated with Kitchen slops; dancing half the night and talking gossip all day, and getting home ready to catch anything, if they have not already caught something, Would it not be far better to live at the Cote all year in one\u2019s own clean, comfortable home, with all the luxuries of the city at hand ?To be sure, some of the Cote folk go away in summer too ; else wherelor the incidents of the bottles ?But then they don't stay long and they don\u2019t need to go at all, and their husbands feel so bad that it Lakes many bottles\u2014or hair restorativesto reconcile them to their absence.Moral, come to the Cote.EUPHROSYNE.\u2014 C«h-0-01 C-h
