and this too with a small hand glass stuck in a crack in a box or laid against a pile of clothing.It was a great cleaning up they had, for their accoutrements got pretty well soiled ry the smow in Quebac yesterday.Among the men was a survivor of the Hl-faved \u2018Victoria\u2019 which was sunk in the Mediterranean last summer with great loss of life.His name is James Sawyer and he is a bright handsome fellow.He related his expérience to to the HE ng Below \u201cdecks and ps they realized what was done he and his comrades made an attempt to close the water-tight doors; how when they saw the water pouring in they sought the deck and assembled aft in response to the command, and how, when the order was given \u2018every man for himself\u2019 they all jumped overboard and tried to get ciear of the sinking veasel.Its an old story now how many were drowned or killed, and how comparatively few were saved uninjured.Out of forty-four men comprising the detachment to which Sawyer be- ionged only thirteen escaped.The survivors were all more or less injured, and it was two weeks before he was him- soif again.He spoke of the death of an old chum of his (which occurred just before his leaving England on this trip) the result of injuries neceïved in that catastrophe.Sawyer's escape was narrow and was due to a friendly plank that came in his way, upon which he sustained himself until picked up by the boats of the \u2018Dreadnaught.\u2019 Major Rowstone informed the reporter that the detachment would be sta- tioried In Esquimalt for five years to do garrison duty and mount guns in the new fortifications.He was very well satisfied with the trip so far.He is accompanied by Mrs.Rowstone.This moming the troops marched through the principal streets and were the centre of much admiration.They left \u2018by the four o'clock train this afternoon.The flag on the City Hall was hoisted in honor of the visit of the Marine Artillery.re GAMBLERS FINED.In the Police Court, this morning, Napoleon Joulin and Charles Belay, who $5.Judge Dugas told the accused that but for the fact that part of the proceeds of the games went to a charitable institution, he would have inflicted a heavy fine, and that Montreal did not want games of that sort.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 CAUGHNAWAUGA MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.\u2019 The following candidates have been nominated for the municipal elections | in Caughnawaga, which will take place on Tuesday.Section 1, ex-Chief Michael Montour and Pierre Canadien;

ALWAYS LIQUOR! John Dempsey, who tried to commit suicide by taking a dose of Paris green, when brought up before Judge Dugas in the Court of Special Sessions to-day was in deep distress.\u2018I am guilty, Your Honor, but I did not know what I was doing when I took the poison.I was in the horrors at the time.If you will suspend sentence on me I will promise never to take liquor again as long as I live\u2019 The unhappy man buried his face in his hands.Judge Dugas\u2014 \u2018Liquor, liquor, lquor, glways liquor! Liquor seems to be at the bottom of nearly all crimes.How do I know if I let you off you will keep your word?Men like you break your word very easily when you are tempted with liquor.\u2019 The prisoner (eagerly)\u2014My old mother is here, sir, she can tell you that I once kept the pledge for four years.I swear I won't drink again.\u2019 His mother was called and told how her sen (a man about 28 years of age) had kept the pledge once for a long time.She had confidence in him this time.\u2018He sees now what liquor has brought him to.I have hope for him now.I really believe he will reform.\u2019 The judge !is- tened to the prayer of the poor mether and told her to get two men to .go security for the future good conduct of her son and he wouid let him off.She ness to get the bondsmen., COMMERCIAL: NOTES.The following business firms have been registered:\u2014Jas.Hughes and Joseph Brisson, contractors, Hughes & Bris- son; John B.Rose, manufacturer, the Dominion Ornamental Iron Co.; Katherine Kinsella, grocer, M.Elliott & Co.; Leonidas Alph.Charbonmeau, printer, the Excelsicr Printing Cope \u2014 AN EXECUTOR SET ASIDE.Judge Delorimier rendered judgment, yesterday, dismissing Mr.Joseph Evar- iste Odilon Labadie from the office of testamentary executor to the will of the late Mary Lucy Ann Porteous.from Uganda, says that.almost ran out of the court in her eager-.{ their majority.Land argued with Mr.Roussy, a Protest- RATIONAL TALK.THE UTOPIA OF INDEPENDENCE AND THE REMEDY FOR ALLEGED GRIEVANCES.The \u2018Presse\u2019 remarks that the mass of the people have, with their great common sense, taken but very little notice of Mr.Royal's pamphlet, and referring .to Mr.Martineau's scheme of independence for Quebec it says: \u201cThis solution, desirable as it may be, is unfortunately outside of all possibility.The Province of Quebec can dhly get out of the Confederation with the consent of the majority.To try and effect separation violently would simply be to renew, in smaller proportions, the war of secession, with the certainty of having to fight at the same tème both against England and against the other provinces of Canada, besides being Sxposed | to the ill- oF 2e 4 De se e foundat on \u201cof a French and Catholic state on their frontier.The creation of an independent state at the mouth and on the shores of the St.Lawrence would separate Great Britain from what would remain of Canada; would deprive it 6f an American port on the Atlantic and would close free access to the sea for the products of western Canada.To enumerate the consequences entailed by the independence of our province is to show its impossibility.\u2019 The article then goes on to ask whether the people of this province have not themselves to blame for having to complain of the present \u2018status quo.\u2019 Have they taken the proper means to preserve the rank which they held when Confederation took place?Those who have strong protection are never oppressed, and if the Province of Quebec was rich and strong, no one throughout the Confederation would dare touch the North-West schools, or speak of driving the French-Canadians from the positions which they occupy.The writer then winds up as follows:\u2014 \u2018If one and al! worked towards the development of the Province of Quebec, we would soon recover in the affairs of the country the influence which we should have therein, and the judicious exercise of which would relieve us of the necessity of seeking a solution outside of the \u201cstatus quo\u201d.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 REV.DR.CHINIQUYS MIRACLE.The Rev.Dr.Chiniquy has returned from Marievilie, where he preached twice on Sunday and once on Monday, in -the French Baptist Church, the pastor of which is the Rev.Mr.Lebeau.Dr.Chiniquy recalls an incident in his early life ag a priest of Rome, when he met tisted that the means then resorted to were dishonest.; \u2018Mr.Roussy was right,\u2019 said Dr.Chini- quy.\u2018But on Sunday I was there in the same place to confute and expose the pamphlet which the then Roman Catho- Lic priest, Pere Chiniquy, wrote against the Protestants.And I did confute him.I utterly demolished him.\u201d Dr.Chiniquy smiled as he said this.He said further that his meeting had been attended by \u2018hundreds of people, despite the warning of the cure of the church that they should not go.The roads were terribly bad, but the people wanted to hear him.One man had remarked to him, \u2018You used to do many miracles when you were a priest; why do you not do them now?\u2018I am a miracle myself.Look et my hand.It does not shake.Look at me read without spectacles and I am eighty- five years old.Is not that a miracle in self.\u201d Dr.Chiniquy is hale and hearty and laughed as he held up his hand steady as a rock.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 AN IMPORTANT ISSUE.DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THE JOHN PRATT ESTATE.Mrs.Lafreniere and Mrs.Bourdon, two of the heirs of the late John Pratt, have served a protest upon his testamentary executors calling upon them to ignore a private bill passed at the last session of the Legislature, concerning the estate.By the bill referred to civil status and effect is given \u2018to the marriage of Dame Marie Albina Thibault with Frederic Pratt, son of the late John Pratt.of her second husband's brother, Albert Pratt, and there being issue of her sec- end marriage the above mentioned bid was passed to allow these childrem to share in the John Pratt estate.\u2018The other heirs now claim that this act of the Legislature was \u2018extra vires,\u2019 and that it could not give civil effect to the marriage of a woman with her brother- tm-lasw.The Pratt estate is a very valuable ome.ee TESTING A PRIVATE.BILL.Mr.Douglas Ogilvie, law student, fa taking an action to test the interpretation ef a private bill passed by the Legislature allowing the testamentary executors of his deceased father to give the children a supplementary annuity and a sum of $10,000 upon attaining The present plaintiff being now 21 years of age wishes to ascertain whether, by the terms of the bill the executors are \u2018obliged\u2019 to give the money, or simply empowered to do so if they think proper.serre IN FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES.The Canada Bank Note Company is in financial difficulties and a meeting of its creditors was held yesterday \u2018afternoon in the office of Messrs.Fulten & Richards.The labllities amount to $70,000 and assets about $30,000.The creditors agreed lo accept fifty cents on the dollar to enable the company to make », new start.The bulk of the assets were made up of plant and materta!

Eljen Kossuth !\u2019 In a moment, without thought of preparation or of com- bining-despite the Austrian cannon which commanded the town and the lomg Time of soldiers, whose bayonets almost \u2018touched them\u2014there came from tire vast multitude a shout llke the roar aS ZN s \\y +n ¥ A WELL ARRANGED CONSERVATORY.\u2019 Mount Royal Cemetery Conservatory, t which is so frequently visited by those who _attend funerals, is among the best rarranged of our many beautiful conservatories.It is admirably fitted up, and is remarkably well adapt>l1 to secure continued health and vigor for plants that bloom within its glass walls.The flowers are pretty, and so are the cats, which do sentinel duty so far as-mice and rats are concerned.Those who visit the conservatory will be repaid by the sight of so much that is beautl- ful, and signature of the visitor's name in the register is all the return asked for so much enjoyment.: \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 LANSDOWNE BOYS\u2019 CLASSES.The boys\u2019 department of the Lans- downe school closed last evening.The report of the principal, Mr.A.N.Shew- an, showed the average attendance te be sixty-five percent this year, against 42.04 last year.The applications for admittance had been 105 this year against 103 last year.Messrs.Macaulay, Ives and Warren received a worthy tribute of praise from Mr.Shewan.Some encouraging words were spoken to the pupils by Mr.G.Stephen, M.I.A.The prizes were then presented as follows: Percy Williams, George Lamibton, George Wright, Carl Lindross, Otto Lin- dross, J.Fraser, Robert Nelson (two prizes), William Artis, G.A.Burns, R.Barton, John Hibbs, Chas.W.Ormston {wo prizes).EVENING a KOSSUTH THE HUNGARIAN GENERAL, (From an old Print.) cf the gea on the shore-rung out again and afain, and repeated: \u2018Eljen Kossuth!

Now, 1 give Chiniquy the Iie direct, for were there such an inquisition I am quite sure that the omly females who could say they were fin any way scandalized by auricular confession would be these who had had the great misfor- june to confess to Chiniquy him- seif.I have been regularly to confess every month since the age of ten to my present age, thirty, and having travelled a great deal, have had the opportunity of confessing to English, Irish, French, Spanish, Italian and American priests, ani on my word as a Christian and a .ady can truthfully say 1 never found anything approaching indelicacy dn one of them; and I have numerous friends, some young and beautiful, who can say the same with regard to \u2018their confes- Sors.Jt is a good thing for Cniniquy that the days of chivalry are passed, for in those days men would not have remained quiet to hear their wives, mothers, daughters and sisters called immoral, but would have given their Calumniator a sound horse-whipping.Money, of course, is Chiniquy\u2019s abject in writing his wicked falsehoods.I think, to judge from his style, that he would fill his purse far better by writing what in England are called, \u2018Penny dreadfuls.\u2019 To make them more to ithe taste of his readers he could bring in a dreadfully wicked Popish priest, and he would not have to draw upon his imagination to describe the iniquities of this priest, for with a little personal examination the character could be drawm from life.In conclusion I wil just quote the sturdy utterances of one of the rectors of one of the Episcopalian churches aft Omaha.Neb.\u2014 \u2018If the religious houses of the Roman Caltholic Church be houses of infamy, and its priests and muns the vilest of the vile, let it be so charged and proved by others than apostates, degraded either for drunkenness, lcentlousness and other abominations.\u2019 ANNIE KATE HARE.\u2018Montreal, March 19, 1854.COMMERCIAL, WITNESS OFFICE, Thursday, March 22, 1894.WHOLESALE PRICES.Beerbohm's cable advices to-day are as follows:- Cargoes off coast, wheat, with increased arrivals buyers hold off.Cargoes on passage and for shipment, wheat, market quiet ;

neverthelesé the artist has admirably succeeded in giving the princl- pal outlines of the city, and characteristics of its buildings, grouping as well as the surrounding country.The cy- ciorama should be seen by everyone, especially all Sunday-school children and their teachers, as well as all the clergy, ministers and priests of every denomination, for it\u2019is a work of art, fascinating by its incidents, and elevating and ennobling by its spirit, being a gospel in itself.I therefore heartäy rec- OTKE d ithe Christian public at large to and see it, for no ome could spend a more profitable half hour in ea better place calculated to be of value towards the \"development of the moral and spinitual character.Yours truly, Lydia Mamreoff Von Finkelstein Mountford, lecturer on bible iands.20 To those who were unable to visit the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893 we would advise them to inspect the show windows of Mr.J.F.Bannister, boot and shoe store, in the Queen\u2019s Block, where two hundred and fifty views of the -wonders.of art and architecture are on view, which gives one a comprehensive idea of the wonder of this century, also the fine exhibit of.Geo.T.Sater & Sons\u2019 fine art foot wear, which was awarded diplomas.and highest honors at the Columbian Exhibition.199.Éeople living in the Province of Ques bewiand who contemplate buying 8 \u2018Plans: any time within the next twelve months should write to Mr.C.W.Lindsay, 2368, 2270 and 2272 St.Catherine street, for illustrated catalogues and price lists of American and Canadian pianos, which will be mailed free.22 ADVERTISEMENTS, Sunlight Soap has the LARGEST SALE IN THE WORLD Because it is THE BEST IN THE WORLD And also because Those whongseit ill dc dat no othér -Boëp | For Laundry and Household, T hy a Positive comfort Sunlight Soap Depot for Quebec.FRANK MAGOR & CO., MONTREAL A FINE PIANO WILL BE SOLD FOR $260.SPECIAL OFFER FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS.Messrs.J.W, Shaw & Co., 1811 Notre Dame street, will offer for the next few days a very fine Cabinet Grand Upright piano, full size, 7 1-3 cctaves, metal prate, swing front and all latest improvements, for $250.This is a special low figure, and anyone wanting a fine instrument, fully guaranteed, should call and see these pianos.In their store may be seen \u2018the celebrated Mason & Risch pianos, which are known as the high-class instruments of the Dominion Any of the pianos in Messrs.Shaw & Co.'s warerooms may be purchased on easy monthly or quarterly payments, so that for want of ready cash no one need be without a piano or organ.They have also some good bargains in secondhand pianos.tioned the following makers: Vose, Heintzman, Estey, Ladd, Shaw, Hubert, Cornwall, etc., and at prices from $25 to $250 and terms $4, $5 to $10 per month.Do not buy a piano or organ without first calling on J.W.SHAW & CO, manufacturers .and importers of fine pianos, organs, music and musical instruments, Among these may be men- | ADVERTISEMENTS.ADVERTISEMENTS i.% $ * Ss BABY a GREAT 00.00 BOOK FY Sif 50e, CARRIACES, np TY eo Yad Ye ee + BEAUTIES.HOUSEWIFE FIVE CENTé EITRA PER POST.IS ALREADY PLANNING HER SPRING CLEANING OR MOVING IT MAY BE.$6.00 BUYS ONF.#10.00 BUYS SOMETHING HANDSOME.8153.00 LUYS ONE \"TIT YOR ANVEODY.| \u2014-101 \u2014 IN ANY CASE SHF ILAS DECIDED ON A NEW CARPET FOR THIS ROOM;

last night there has heen & perceptible change in the condition of the ice on the river opposite the city.The ice has shoved down from above and closed in the open gap running down from Windmill Point.Several naked openings can now be seen in the cham- nel towards the centre of the river.There is a broad opening etretching from \u2018the city across to St.Helen's Island.The motion of the ice is very gradual and can be noticed omly at intervals, The height of the water is practically the saine as yesterday.At Mill street station a rise of two inches is reported since yesterday.Sorel, Que.,

charge of cruelty to a h The Soclety for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals had the accused arrested on a charge of tying a chain about his horse\u2019s neck and having another horse drag it by the neck a distance of about four feet; then, when the animal fell, it is charged that accused fastened the chain about its body and had it dragged about three hundred feet along the ground.Accused pleaded not guilty.The case wil be tried on Wednesday.Eugene Bolduc, clerk, was convicted of the theft of $600 from Messrs.Liddell, Lesperance & Co., and was sentenced to imprisonment for twelve months.In the Court of Special Sessions to-day Camille Landtot, aged 19, pleaded gulity to breaking into the store of Samuel Superior and stealing a small quantity of goods.He was sent to jail for three months.T.Bourdon, found gullty of embezzling $38 the property of Adolphe Seguin, his employer, was sent to jail for ten days.He refunded the money.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 HBALTH COMMITTEE APPROPRIA-: .TIONS.The Health Committee has been called for this afternoon to discuss its appropriations.Last year about $30,000 was spent.Under the Mann regime the expenditure was about $80,000.The city: is now larger, the men better paid and not so hard worked.The increase of wages alone amounts to over $5,000.The committee this year will hardly get along with much less than $100,000.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE BEDOUIN.HIS MANNER OF LIFE GRAPHICALLY SCRIBED.DE- \u2018! am black, but comely, as the tents of Kedar,\u201d sang Solomon of vid, and the black goats\u2019-hair tent is to the Bedouin of the desert\u2014the sons and daughters of Ishmael\u2014tlie most comely of sights to-day; it is his home.In such a tent Mrs.Mountford gave her entertainment last evening, surrounded by types of Bedouins of every grade and of both sexes.Mrs.Mountford was dressed as a chieftain's wife and a princess of the \u2018blood royal and wore the distinctive cloak of turquoise blue.In simidar faghion of dress and suroundings lived Abraham amd hiz followers as did those who Tepresented them last evening, and one might easily imagine that Abraham and Sarah and Hagar were there in very person, So striking was the iHu- sion produc by Mrs.Mouatford.The Bedouins are nt all dark, but range from a {ine olive brown to white, the Edomite Redouln resembling the Saxon race with their \u201carge blue eyes and flaxen hair.The Bedouin never shaves or cuts his haircut locks or shaven fe.ces being a mark of captivity add degradation.Iskmaëel\u2019s deszendants have been from time dmmemorial a wild people, but they are not savage and the observance of etiquette is very strict among them.Religious *customs form «the cnly bond of union and the chieftain has little authority as such unless he be honored and obeyed for nobility of character.The women \u2018take a large part in the politics of the tribe, and their consent must be obtained before war can be declared.The Bedouin has many moble traits of character, but he does not hesitate to tell little lies.Like the border tribes of Scotland the different tribes are coustantly raiding one another, but if you were \u2018to call the Bedouin a thief the would very probably send a spear through you\u2014he calls himself a plunderer.Mrs.Mountford\u2019s third entertainment, which is a wonderful commentary upon bible history throughout, concludes with a graphic representation of an evening in the desert and the final retiring to rest.This afternoon at two o'clock Mrs.Mountford will repeat this lecture in the Windsor Hall for the benefit of the Sunday-schools of the city.Those who have not yet seen her will do well to take advantage of this last opportunity.600D FRIDAY.To-morrow being Good Friday, there will be no issue of the \u2018Daily Witness.\u2019 \u2014 MEETINGS AND SOCIETIES.LECTURE BY BIR WILLIAM DAWSON, Many will be glad to hear that the Sunday-school Union, have arranged with Sir Willlam Dawson, to give an address especially for Sunday-school teachers and bible students, in the large hall of the High School building.Peel street, Thursday, April 5, at 8 p.m.The subject will be one of special interest at this time, being in connection with the present Sunday-school lessons of the International series, and a subject to which Sir Willam has given considerable study, namely: \u2018Joseph in History, and as a Present Teacher.Admission will be by ticket.Superintendents \u2018can obtain tickets free from their respective secretaries of the different denominations for their teachers, and at Grafton's and Drysdale\u2019s.Our opportunities of hearing Sir William Dawson are very few\u2014and no doubt there will be a large audience.A collection will be made.FRATERNAL INTERCHANGES.On Tuesday evening an \u2018Official visit to the Duke of Edingurgh Lodge, No.4, I O.O.F.by the officers of Lans- downe Lodge, took place, when a couple of hours or more interchange of that hearty feeling of brotherhood and friendly good will, which members of the fraternity so well know how to appreciate, was fully entered into.It should be added that this is the beginning of a series of visits which, no doubt, will prove prolific of substantial good, not only to the order, but to the individual members themselves.Besides a good attendance of local officers generally, there were present Bro.W.Cunningham, of Chatham Lodge, Chat- ham, Kent county, Ont., he being now a resident of Huntingdon, Que.A MISSIONARY FROM CAPE

ald \u2018have much to say that is eminently worth hearing.COREA.An interesting lecture was delivered last evening in the American Presbyterian Church by Mr.Malcome C.Fenwick, of the Corean mission.The Rev.T.S.McWilliams presided.The geographical position of Corea was de- cribed.It was a country of valleys, Yin a climate similar to Ontario.The population numbered 12,000,000 and there were at present fifteen active mission- dies at work.These amd other were stidying the language preliminary to active service.The Coreans were comparatively speaking willing to accept the Gospel.Mr.Fenwick who has been home on leave, is about to return to Corea and missionary labor.CANADIAN ORDER OF FORESTERS.\u201cThis substantial and progressive Canadian institution is sald to be becoming more popular every day in the province of Quebec, as is evidenced by the number of new courts being estabilsh- ed, not only in the city of Montreal, but in almost every hamlet in the province, and also by the great increase of membership in the courts already\u2019 established.No less than four courts \"have been instituted in Montreal since the beginning of this year, each with a large charter list, the latest of these being a decidedly new feature in connection with the order, namely, the first French court of the order, Court Champlain No.506, which was institu- tad on Tuesday night, March 20, at St.Joseph's Hall, St.Catherine street, A large contingent of members of sister courts attended to assist in and witness the ceremonies which were conducted by Bros.Ernest Gartung, superintendent of organization; R.Lynch, D.D.H.C.R.; Wm.Renshaw, acting M.M.; D.Beloe, acting H.V.C.R.; A.Spur, H.C.; W.Couper, H.R.S.; R.Mec- Rae, H.F.S.; W.Williams, H.S.W.; J.R.Bird, HJ.W.; W.McClurg, H.8.B.; and W.Woodward, H.J.B.After the court had been instituted the following officers were elected and installed by the superintendent of organization: \u2014 Bro.E.Gartung,

because your family suffers most keenly on account of your business and respéc- table people louk with pity upon your grown up sons and dauzhters; because as the law imposes a license it shows that it regards your business as a dangerous one.Why does not your grocer or butcher need a license?Because, no matter how carefully you think you handle the business, drunkenness, misery and crime are the outcome of it; because public opinion is now on the side of temperance, and coming to regard saloon- keeping as an unsavory business; because, if you are a Catholic, your Church has detlared against wmaloon-keeping, has called it a dangerous business and cdvises all Catholics te gat out of it; because, the greatest minds in the Church to-day declare that your busi- Tess is doing more to injure the Church than all other evils, and until intemperance is wiped out, religion ean make but slow progress in America: because, the late Catholic Congress held in Chicago, composed of representative lav- men from all over the country, declared: We urge Catholics everywhere to zet out and keep out of the saloon huskress, because health, family, soclety, life and the soul itself are endangered through you; beca'ise you would be loth to see your son the patron of a bar- mom.Then heed well how many sons vou ruin.In Gol's name, turn to some other business.What if your income is less?It will be free from the curses of widows and orphans, mothers and wives.Think before you enter upon another year of this detestable work.Make the effort to get out of it, and God will bless you.\u2019 -\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 AUSTRALIAN SCHOOL SAVINGS BANKS.In accordance with a design long contemplated, savings banks were opened during 1887 in connection with the public schools of New South Wales.At the close of 1891 there were 602 banks in operation, as compared with 554 at the close of 1890, and the deposits for the year amounted to £12,452.Of this amount £8,183 was withdrawn for current use, and £4,269 remained to the credit of the depositors.The object afmed at in establish'ng these banks is to inculcate practically the principles of economy, while yet the minds of the children are susceptible of deep impressions.A sys tematic training for this purpose is a thing to be des:red in every public schiool, in order to engender habits of thrift amongst school children, to In- doctrtnate them as to the uses and effects of money that are ulterior to immediate gratification®, and to make them recognize and calculate upon poverty and degradation as the natural re- sults of waste and improvidence.er DEPARTMENT OF THE prie THE ANNUAL REPOUT DOWN.A DECREASE IN THE NUMBER cv yy.ENTRIES IN THE NOURI.CHARLES TUPPER'S REP (Special to the \"Wits.Ottawa, March 22.\u2014The ,- of the Department of 1».out.The number of har, - in the North-West Terrie was 4,067, a decrease hea \u2014,.- 763.There were sixtv-thr\u2026 Of the total entries NN wu.r.sons from the United x- senting 2,360 souls.The ar Europe increased hy 1,645.7.of tmmigrants to the courer- Lake Superior was 11.566.ù à 1,269 below \u2018the previous veur H.Smith, Immigration Cm - the North-West, saves of tn tion from the United States forts of the Department in tion have been most sucres- large number of experienc.- - many of them well provided +: tal in the shape of cash and s:.settled amongst us.\u2019 REPORT OF THE HIGH COMMISE\" 1 Sir Charles Tupper's repo:: usual, voluminous.It deals - calendar year 1893.He grav.glad to be able to say that of immigration from this c- from the Continent to Cana last year shows a satsfacts over previous years.It may i.quant*ty of Government lanis - .Manitoba and the North-W- tories during the last vear pare a little unfavorably witn tistics of previous years, b matter for which we are n- ble, and for which an expan readily be given.There is that many of the farmers :n and the North-Waes: Terr,tor.doing so well as they uch as they might fairly ant.cipa- is NOT IN ANY WAY THE FAULT OF TER or of its climate.hut arises lary the low prices which have pres grain and cattle and other agricultural produce all over 1b.Naturally, however, in these atances, the Canadian farmer.in to the prass or to his friends disguise this fact;

OUR FLORENTINE VILLA.We Jet Florence and went to Fiesole beyond not to economize, but because we nd to go somewhere, and had long and secretly pined for a real Italian villa, we found one, and a Medicean villa at that ; à Villa with eight rooms,\u2014one of which, it is true, proved to be a chapel and two others halls\u2014a villa with a tomb of its last marquis and a garden of its own, and a greater garden oppo- site\u2014the very garden of Lorenzo.The villa was furnished ; I still sigh as 1 think of that charming antique furniture.In brief, it was the very Ital- lan villa of our dreams ; and we two small people with small incomes, but with great courage, rented it entire\u2014 garden.tomb, shrine, furniture, all.We hired a contadina to do our work for two dollars and forty cents a month, which she considered munificent, and gave us in return such service as Wwe hope never again to receive On earth ; for it is not good that we should be as gods before our time.Some months later, having to vacate the first villa\u2014for which I forgot to say that we paid eighty francs the first month and seventy afterward (sixteen and fourteen dollars)\u2014we moved into the great garden itself, where we inherited three charming rooms and a kitchen, and the terraces, olive groves, ilex thickets, fountains and rose-gardens\u2014nightingales in- clusive\u2014of the Medici, for five dollars a month apiece.There is always an explanation.We happened upon our first villa in winter, when Fiesolan villas are not in demand ; the serond was tucked away too securely for any but adventurous eyes to find.\u2018How did you ever happen here ?\u2019 was everybody's first question.\u2018How charming it must be, if one can afford to live so,\u2019 said the friends flying from pension to pension and fondly thinking they were geeing Italy.Nesting in her very heart, we laughed quietly to ourselves and ran up our accounts with satisfaction.And it happened that lingering there until every stranger had fled,\u2014until Florence was given up to the Florentines, and our Fiesolan garden was a bloom of roses by day and a glow of fireflies by night,\u2014lingering from sheer inability to tear ourselves away, and finding that as life grew lovelier, living grew cheaper, we flashed upon a third prin- : ciple of economy-\u2014Go everywhere out of season! And we found this the plan of pure delight as well.In summer, when not an Inglese nor an Americana walks the streets, when the pensions and hotels are deserted, one has no longer to think of cold or damp.Rooms may be had for a song, and there is all Florence to choose from.Then and then only her galleries, cloisters and churches are all to yourself ; and her narrow, dark streets are always cool.One has but to avoid the broad piazzas and blazing Lung\u2019 Arno at midday, and turn to them in the enchanted evening.Summer {8s the perfect paradise-time of the year for Florence, the only time truly to see, know and love the loveliest city of Europe.When the \u2018tramottana\u2019 and the tourist sweep the town, up go the room-rents, and it is time to pack up and be off.Where ?Why, to any summer resort In Italy.Along the Mediterranean there must be dozens of them like the one we, looking \u2018for softer airs and greater quiet, found a refuge in.Long, low, sleepy little hamlets, given over in winter to the sea and sky und the fisher-folk of Italy ; swarming in summer with Ital- jans, English and Americans, and every corner coining gold.In the fall, the winter, the spring, these summer resorts are villas of closed houses where one rents two charming rooms for twenty-five francs a month from a dear Îittle \u2018padrona,\u2019 who renders perfect service and throws in the poetry of her happy life.One rents, too, the stretch of sea and sky, the purple Carraras and sunsets unimaginable.It is true there is no restaurant nor tafe, but there is always the oll-stove.Tle shops are amazingly good ; the sea provides for your table ; and one lives simply well on\u2014I am afraid to say how very, very little.Henceforth it is a maxim with me to be out of season ; to fit when the tourists do\u2014and in the opposite direction.HOW TO TRAVEL.To travel cheaply one should dispense with all but hand-baggage so far as possible ; and to go without more is pos- sihle for months at a time if one is trav- ceiling rapidly, making short stays which admit of no room-hunting.A valise a shawl-strap for everything.Even for the flying trips it pays, we think, to take one\u2019s friendly cofiee-pot and package of coffee ; and whenever it is a question of a month here and three weeks there it pays richly to carry the small trunk, which means independence, comfort and home in each city.We have tried travelling first, second and third-class.In Italy one may go third-class for a tiny run,\u2014two or three hours,\u2014but ons must beware of being ino clever ! On long distances the \u2018omni- buz\u2019 train often contrives to lose you a night somewhere, and to stay over is to pay more than the difference of fare, even if you don\u2019t\u2014as ten to one you and will-\u2014take first-class to catch up.Sec- ctnd-class is the safest.Travelling thus\u20145short stages third- riass, long ones second\u2014with hand-bag- gage only and stopping at the best Ital- fan hétels,\u2014the best English are too °stly and the second-best Italian are intolerable,\u2014one may wander over all rorthern Italy comfortably and cheaply.As for the travelling establishment, I forgot to say that obviously the oll-stove cannot go in the trunk ; but it has been known to travel fn the shawl-strap._ These are the large economies ; the liitle ones\u2014to borrow a.native idiom\u2014 \u2018learn themselves.\u2019 By instinct, one Coax to purchase at Italian shops rather tlan English, and to bestow the Jjudi- villa Centesimi here and there which retirn In francs\u2019 worth of comfort.What it costs to live is one thing ; the cost of life is another.That depends upon the Individual ; with how tach fortitude one can turn one's- back Epon stick-pins, photographs and embroidery, costing so little that not to pur scems sin ; with wbat constancy one (IN nverlook vellum volumes and parch- ont bindings, costing next to nothing; with what measure of self-denial one vsists tha thousand and one temptations Wuith \u2018Eust nothing at all\u2019 and yet play such havoc with your yearly reckoning.It depends upon whether ons has a cost- 1¢ pct fad or none ; it depends somewhat upon the magnitude of one\u2019s foreign cor- regpondence.But all this has no more to do with Mving in Italy than in Aquitania.The cost of life rests with the individual ; that of living is a matter of economy.One lives in Italy for a few francs a day; and in Italy, as everywhere else, blessedly.The best of life is without money and without price.\u2014\u2018Youth's Companion.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014 DAJLY STEPS UPWARD.THURSDAY, MARCH 22.He spared not His Son !

Toronto, March 3L.\u2014The discussion of the fee system brought a number of 4 members to their feet.Messrs, Balfour, McKay, Clelland and others defended the action of the Government in ap-' painting a commission to investigate the question so that in making a change to salaries the interests of all might be conserved.Mr.Balfour twitted the Opposition with merely trying to delude the Patrons of Industry with the idea that their platforms were identical.Mr.E.F.Clarke, in opposing the system and supporting the amendment to the \u2018Budget, declared that for party purposes two registrars had been appointed for Toronto, so that the enormous amount received as fees might all of it go to reward political workers for party.services.One registrar, he argued, would have sufficed,who should have been paid a reasonable salary, and the surplus have gone into the civic treasury.A number of Instances of excessive emoluments received as fees were quoted by Mr.Meredith\u2019s supporters, and each case was characterized in sweeping terms as a public outrage.It is sald that to embarrass the Gov- ernmént the Opposition will strongly support Mr.Conmee's separate school ballot, which, it 1s thought, will be vigorously opposed by the Hon.Mr.Fraser.The Legislature will adjourn from tomorrow until Monday.Mr.Joseph Tait will introduce a bill making the Saturday half holiday compulsory in

his first lecture on constitutional law at Stanford University, last week, he gave the press copies of the full address, because of public interest in the opening of the course.When he came to deliver the second lecture he announced that he would give a digest of about 1,400 words to the press, and no reporter was admitted without his promise not to take additional notes for publication.Mr.Harrison said he proposed to publish his lectures, and as he had copyrighted them he naturally desired to get any benefit there might be from their sale.smuggled in a stenographer, and his paper printed the

FUTURE.Mr.Gladstone in writing to Mr.John Crown, chairman of the Mid-Lothfan Liberals, from Brighton last Saturday, in reply to an address of the Edinburgh Liberals, after thamking them, says: \u2014 \u2018I consider my career as beginning with the Reform act of 1832, which for England meant improvement and extension and for Scotland political birth.Three score years later they offered us pictures which the higtorian will recognize.The great legislative and administrative period\u2014perhaps the greatest in our an- nals\u2014would be the story of emancipation, political, social, moral and \u2018ntel- lectual.Almost numberless have been the causes which have been brought to issue in that period, and in every instance I rejoice to think that Scotland has done.battle for the right.Another perlod opens, a period which has possibly yet greater moral dangers and certainly a great ordeal for those classes which are now becoming largely conscious of their power, but have never hitherto been subjected to its deteriorating Influence.This influence has been kept to the classes above them, because they were the sole possessors of this power.Now is the time of every friend of this country to remind the masses that they owe their present political elevation to mo principles less broad and noble than these, love and Hberty for all without distinction of classes, creed or country, and resolute preference for the interests of the whole people of narrow scope.I am sanguine that Scotland will show the Irish a sense of duty no less lofty than in the past.I do not doubt the sufficiency of her influence and power to obtain without serlous difficulty everything meedful to satisfy her speclal wants.For myself, IT need say little more than that I carry with me out of office the political opinions I professed in it.It is, indeed, a source of satisfaction to me that after sixty years of a highly contentious life I can be honorably relleved of some of that active participation in political conflict of which I have had so full a share.But I recognize the great and growing demand of \u2018these countries for satisfying their legislative wants.I lament that the discrepancy of sentiment between the two Houses of Parliament has been revived to such an extent as to raise a question between the chamber responsible and the chamber totally irresponsible to the nation and raise it in such a form as will demand at no distant day a conclusive judgment from the constituencies.I feel deeply convinced that until the first demands of Ireland are satisfied as the House of Commons tried to satisfy them neither will the legisiative wants of any portion of the United Kingdom be adequately met nor will the Empire attain the maximum of its union and power nor British honor be effectually cleared of the deepest historic stain ever attached to it.\u2019 ce WANT THE TARIFF READJUSTED.MANITOBA FARMERS ASK FOR FREE AGRICUL TURAL IMPLEMENTS, BINDER TWINE, BARBED WIRE AND COAL OIL.Winnipeg, March 19.\u2014The Liberal- Conservatives of Rockwood held a mass meeting on Saturday at Stonewall.The following resolution was carried: \u2014 \u2018That we, members of Rockwood Com- servative Association, have faith in the leaders of the great Conservative party to enact such a change in the present fiscal policy of the Government as will {meet the requirements of the farmers of Manitoba.The present policy of rro- tecrion has not fulfilled the expectations of iis promoters; competition has been | prevented and gigamtic combines have been formed that have sapped the lifeblood qut of the people of this province and combined with the exorbitant freight rates charged for carrying our produce to the .seaboard has practically killed the farming industry in the prcvince.\u2018Resolved that this association would ask the Dominion Government to readjust the present tariff so that the farmers of Manitoba will have the benefit of free agricultural Implements, barbed wire, binding twine, coal oil and other articles which are enhanced in price through the operation of the present protective tariff and that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Hon.Geo.E.Foster, minister of finance.\u201d \u2014_\u2014 BIG SUIT AGAINST THE G.T.R.Chicago, March 21.\u2014Messrs.Swift & Co.'s celebrated common carriers\u2019 suit against the Chicago & Grand Trunk, begun four years ago, is again on hearing before Judge Burke.An enormous mass of evidence is in hand for introduction, and the hearing is expected to consume several weeks.The litigants are represented by a number of the best railway lawyers in the country.The suit involves claims flled by the packers for $100,000 as rebates on consignments of meats, and bears upon the legal ability of the railways to charge whatever prices they choose as common carriers, the plaintiffs contending that exorbitant freight charges have been made by the defendants.The first witness called was David Hartwell, secretary for Swift & Co.He was called to show the capacity of the plaintiffs\u2019 business.He said that his company pays on an average $6,000,000 a year in freight charges and that it employs between 40,000 and 50,000 men in its business.About 130 cars of meat are shipped over the different ralil- ways \u2018each day.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 DISMISSALS ON THE WELLAND

through.Fortunately, with the incoming of this month a milder spurt has set in which gives promise of an early spring.A BROAD DAYLIGHT MYSTERY.The McCarthy murder case, to which I referred in my last letter, still continues an unsolved mystery.Though committed in broad daylight and in a crowded thoroughfare no real clues have been secured.One man, named Carri- gan, is in custody, the principal evidence against him being that he has a hard reputation, but there seems to be nothing substantial to connect him with the crime.It is an unpleasant but just commentary on the condition of our police

backward, and an agitation for its betterment, promoted by many clergymen and others, is now in progress through the press.As I have already observed regarding politics, everything here is worked on the denominational basis, and education is especially the victim of this practice.Each denomination, Episcopatian, Methodist, Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Congregational, and Salvation Army, has its educational grant and administers it as it chooses.The evils of this are not felt in the large settlements, where each religion has sufficient adherents to make the grant, which ie distributed on a per capita basis, sufficiently large to support fairly good schools, but in smaller setilements and impoverished localities the system ls ruinous to the purposes for which™it is intended.Small places, containing 100 or so children, of from five to fifteen\u201d years of age,\u2019 are scatter ed all over the island, each \"with a separate school for Roman Catholic, Episcopalian and Methodist children.1tis perfectly obvious that this course is ruinous to the cause of education.The grant, which, if combined, would suffice to equip one good school, with proper teachers, is divided up, with the result that all three schools are useless, or nearly so, The scbool buildings are poor and miserably equipped, (in fact, the people themselves frequently erect the buildings by their free labor), the teachers are but mediocre as might be expected, when the average teacher's salary is about $160 per annum, with infinitesimal fees, and the results of educational work may be gauged by the figures published by a zealous Methodist minister, who is vigorously combating the present system, viz.: that out of 66,948 children in the colony between the ages of five and fifteen, 37,554, or considerably over half, are unable to read or write.It is true that these figures, owing to the imaceuracy of the census returns, have been questioned, but none will deny that prompt and effectual reforms are needed in our educational policy, and the agitation will likely result in forcing the legislature into action, through the power of re- nominationalism is so great and has existed so long, and with such deep-rooted prejudices, that many liberal-minded and public-spirited men despair of a change.OPENING OF THE LEGISLATURE.The Legislature opened on Feb.15, and the governor's speech promises a very meagre programme of work, only two measures being outlined; one, on the revision of the tariff; the other on the indispensible French shore question It being the first session of a new par- lament a Speaker waa required to be slected, and Mr.Geo.Emerson, the former occupant, was chosen unanimously, mtwithstanding that a petition is Figed against his return on the grounds o! bribery and corruption.The Government speech has already been telegraphed to you in condensed form.It \u201cas simply a resume of the colony's afairs during the year, which it de- \u201cared to be, on the whole, very satis- \u2018artory, and it particularly dwelt upon \u201822 immunity which Newfoundland en- ;\u2018Yed from the prevailing depression in the civilized world last year, which was Les: proved by the total absence of all business failures during that time.GREAT RAILWAY PROGRESS.Another gratifying fact noted was :\u201d progress being made in rallway con- Le tion, The rails are mow graded to \u201cAin thirty-seven miles beyond Ex- © 93, or 294 from St.John\u2019s, and with- 7 cighteen months the two extremities = the island will be united by the ra!l- \u201cay.This summer the coal and tren - DO LS in tke interfor, claimed to be \u2018\u201drr valuable, will be reached, and ex- \u201ciments will be immediately begun to fst their worth.It is to be hoped \u201chese will be a success, as a carbomi- \u2018T7us area in the interior would Le of (>mense benefit.The intention of the \u2018\u2019Vernment is to reduce the tariff so * tD bear less heavily on the poor TINS necessaries of life, and to in- \"2se the rates on the rich man\u2019s : but in reality it ts to provide larger revenue, as the present ig in- ad late to meet the demands of the on ».C service and the heavy yearly (érest in addition, which the comp:e- cours Ties, revision on the lines of reduction fer the poor man will he favorably recelved \u2014if, which is doubtful, the reduction will be anything more than go Name.The French Shore legislation is to be a permanent bill to supersede the temporary one now in operation to legalize the modus vivendl on the lobster question.SUCCESSFUL PISCAL CULTURE.The work of the Fisheries Department in this colony is worthy of the highest praise.The successful result of its operations has practically de- montrated that it de possible to hatch both cod and lobsters even in immense quantities, and thus help greatly to replenish the fishing grounds around our shores.During last year 517,353,000 lobsters were successfully hatched at Dildo, in Trinity Bay, where the Department has $s headquarters.The work of hatching cod has been no less successful, 201,435,388 young fry being planted in good condition in the walers of the bay.It is Impossible to cver- estimate the value of this work in a country like Newfoundland, where the fishing interests are the chief dcpend- ence of the people.= ELECTION CONTEST TRIALS.Concurrently with the opening of the Legislature, the trials of the members petitioned against for bribery, began in the Supreme Court.The first is that against the Hon.H.J.B.Woods, Sur- veyor-General, his colleague, Mr.E.Moores, both of whom represent Bay de Verde district.The petitions include seventeen members of the Government and all the Executive Council.The Opposition, who filed them, hold that this is the worst and most flagrant case of the lot, and therefore made it a test action.Should it succeed, it is more than probable the whole of ihe Executive will be unseated; if it fails, the other charges will be withdrawn, The case opened on Feb.13, and the petitieners or, plaintiffs\u2019 side occupied till the end of the month.It included the examination of fifty-five witnesses, just begun, and at present, of course, it is impossible to say how it will end, but the evidence is very strong against Mr.Woods, whose chances of escape are thought to be very small, though Mr.Moores may get clear.In connection with the evidence, the Hon.R.Bond, Colonial Secretary, came near getting into some trouble with the Court.One of the witnesses for the prosecution, a .clerk in the Board of Works Office, was being examined, and inquiries were made for the books of his Department which he had been subpoenaed to \u2018bring.He stated Mr.Bond had told him not to bring them without an order from the Government.The Judge animadverted very strongly on this conduct, but Mr.Bond, when he was called, showed the matter in a different light; saying he had told him not to bring the books ment.This sufficed for the Judge, and what came near being an unpleasant episode, ended quietly.It Is rumored that if Mr.Woods is umseated, the Government will immediately resign, appeal to the people, and have another general election in May.x FINANCES OF THE ISLAND.eral, has presented his first Budget.After briefly reviewing the trade conditions for the past year, he then gives the foi- lowing statistical information: The total revenue of the colony last year from The customs returns showed a shortage of ,167, against 1892, but the abnormal imports after the fire in that year renders this matter for no surprise.Against the revenue of $1,764,791.64 there was an expenditure (including $310,289.96, \u2018thie colony\u2019s total interest on its debt for the year) of $1,807,099.70, This would leave a deficit of $42,308.06 om the year's transactions, but as the municipal council of St.John's owes the Government $42,333.- 97 interest, the payment of this sum by the council would give the Government the magnificent surplus for the year of twenty-five dollars and ninety-one cents.The public debt of the colony now stands at $8,255,546.56.It has been Increased by the following sums.\u2014 For Hall's Bay railway construec- TION L.2.00-a0e0 ee caro cec ne vc eue $1,014,000.00 For western railway construction 545,760.00 For railway connecting road.00,000.90 For rebuilding df St.John\u2019s.202,419.15.$1,862,179.15 It will be observed that nearly the whole of this increase has been for railway construction, which work is being pushed forward rapidly.The floating debt has not been increased the past year.It stands at $664,800, and am arrangement has been made for adding it to the funded debt.The estimated revenue for 1894 4s $i,- 706,470, of which the customs is expected to contribute $1,630,000, or about a hundred thousand dollars less than the past year.The estimated expenditure dis $1,701,625, which will leave a surplus of $4,846 TARIFF KEFORM POSTPONED, The promised tariff revision which formed part of the Governor's speech, has been pogtponed till mext session.Owing to the destruction of statistics in the great fire, the Government did not feel themselves in a position to proceed with jt this year, but will take steps ito collect all available data during recess, and - present a thorough tariff measure next session.FRENCM SHORE \u2018QUESTION.Newfoundland is likely to witness a renewal of the French Shore trouble thts season.The subject has recently been discussed both in the Imperial and Local Parliaments.In the former, Sir Edward Grey, Foreign Under Secretary, gave an explanation of a new plan of operations by the French, and further announced the agreement of the British Government in the policy pursued by our authorities regarding the collection of duties.Last summer, French lobster packets imported quantities of lobster cans from Halifax, in the steamer \u2018Harlaw,\u2019 a British ship.They wanted to get them in free of duty, but our Government refused and confiscated the goods.Then the French Admiral came down here and demanded a return of the duties, and when refused, saflled away in high dudgecnm, curtly declining to attend the dinner given in his honor by the Governor.The Imperlal Government now supports the course taken by our authorities.In the Local Legisature a lengthy \"OH es em

in London seeking a less objectionable \u2018Coercion\u2019 bill, as &# was termed, than the one before the British Parliament, they sought to have the judges to be appointed selected from the Newfoundland Bar; fo have a right of appeal to \u2018the Supreme Court of this colony; to have compensation atlowed our people who might be sufferers by the arbitration award.On the first point Lord Ripon conceded that \u2018the formal appointment may be vested in the Colonlal Govern ment,\u2019 though the sclection and payment of the judges will be retained by the Imeprial Government.On the question of appeal he admits that \u2018the point is one on which T have no doubt an arrangement could \u2018be arrived at by further discussion; and as for compensation the concession is apvarenitly made that this shall be afforded by them, provided we admit the principle that the damage be azsessed by an Imperial officer.This point must be more ex- plicily dealt with.Lord Ripon inslsfts on the passage of @ permanent measure to enforce treaties and the award of the proposed lobster arbitration.He says: Newfoundland\u2019's grievances til] ithe er- hitration has been completed and the

having the same snow-white locks and bright blue eves, as well as the deep, ruddy complexion, the latter of which was so distinguishable a feature in gentlemen of a past generation.As president of the local St.Andrew's Society, he attended in that capacity the usual round of public entertainments, wearing the insignia of his office, a massive gold chain for the neck with the badge or crest of the association anpended thereto.He filled the office for an extended period, perhaps for twenty or twenty-five years, being annually re-elected to it by his attached and devotel zountrymen-and as such took part with Sir Adolphe Caron\u2019s father, then Mayor of Quebec, in the public demonstration given by the \u2018Herd of Hugomont,\u2019 at the castle of St.Lewis, in honor of the birth of the Prince of Wales.MR.PRIMROSE'S EDUCATION AND CAREER.Mr.Primrose had received a university education, and was, I understand, 2 barrister of Lincoln's Inn.He had likewise sat in the English House of Commons, but the death of George III.causing a dissolution of Parliament, he was unable to bear the expense of a second election, and so retired from public life.It was frequently asserted during his lifetime and after wards that he Had taken part with Lord Brougham jn the defence of Queen Caroline, but this, I am assured, by one of \u2018his old students (now a distinguished member of the Caradian Judiciary) was not the fact.He attended the trial, but simply as a spectator, and was very fond in after years of relating incidents and ar ecdotes connected with it.On his arrival in Canada, Mr.Primrose, as an English barrister, was paid the compliment of being called to the Iccal bar, without examination.His commission as an advocate and barrister of Lower Canada is of record In the office of the Registrar-General of Canada at Ottawa, and bears date of*Nov.23, 1822.About 1828 he obtained an appointment under government with the title of Ir spector-Genera! of the Royal Domaëén.This gave him the management of all the government signiories, entailing also the collection by him of the feudal dues payable to the Crown.He was also the solicitor of the Bank of Momtreal, and subsequently, olerk \u2018of Her Majesty's Land Roll or Papier Terrier\u2014the income from which several offices, united to that derived from Mis iaw practice, which Was considerable, enabled him to live with comparative comfort, for one of his birth and positinn in society.Latterly.hig income was largely augmented by the receipt of a yearly allowance from his brother.the fourth earl, and father of whe present Prime Minister, with whom, during his lifetime, he maîn- tained an uninterrupted and affectionate Intercourse.Mr.Primroze was created a Queen\u2019s Counsel in 1842, his mama standing third.I think, in a smal! batch of appointments, which included Louiz Hypolite Jafontaine.Charles Richard Ogden, Come Seraphin Cherrier, Duncan Fisher, Thos.Cushing Aylwin, and Augustin Norbert Marin\u2014the very cream and flower of the legal profession in Lower Canada at that perind.LOBED ROFESERYS IN%EKERT IN CANADA In manner and disposition Mr.Prim- Tosa has heen described to me 23 having bacn exceedingly frank, generous and courteous, anid as beng a man who attracted towards him the regard and affection of all persons, but more especlal- iv those gerving under him in whatever eapagty.fie was of a charitable and rhilanthropic turn.and for long labored with Bishop Stewart, a brother of the Tlar! of Galiowar.Bishop Mountain, the\u2019 Rev.Dr.Harkness, Capt.Elgee, R.E.: Dw.Bartlev, H.M.15th Foot: John Char]- ton Fisher, Sutherland Stayner, and otnar devoted Christian men of the past, in a work having for its object the reclaiming of the oriminal classes.In fur- \u2018herance of! this design he became n weekly visitor at the old Quebec jail, now Morin College.and there undertook mirch of the same Xind of labor as that for which the late Jeffery aie and the Inmented Willlam Holmes Howland were afterwards distinguished in other Has never entered the political fleid to my Knowledge.\u2018Brannazh\u2019 is right in surmising that one, if not two, of Mr.Primrose's sons were for a time in the drect line of ~aldest daughter died early in life, them having been born before the present Lord Rosebery.Ome of the boys entered \u2018the commissariat service, and died guddenly at the St.Lawrence Hall, Mont- Teal, during the American civil war.THE BEAUTIFUL MISSES GORE.Mrs.Primrose was a daughter of Colonel Ralph Gore, of Barrow Mount, Kilkenny, heir to the dormant Bartdom of Ross, and a warm personal friend of the Duke of Wellington, at whose instance the Colonel had been appointed to the office of Ordnance storekeeper at Quebec.Colonel Gore possessed five daughters, all remarkable for their beauty, grace and accomplishments.They were the Gunnings or Moncrieffs of the provincial society of the day, and naturally much sought after.The unmarried;
