#eoend commandant, Lafontaine: leutenants, MuPot, Durivage, and Audemard; ensigns, Gareau, De Nazelle, and Brisson; mddshipmen, De Saint Saloy, Demadrille, Champoiseau, Dye, Garnier, and Quecianl; surgeon, Fossard; paymaster, Panet; engineer, rbler.CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, held yesterday afternoon, it was decided to raise the fee for life membership from $20 to $100.Mr.Morin gave notice of motion to strike off the list of members all those who have not paid their fees for one year or more.The secretary, Mr.Cote, called attention to the fact that the rooms of the Chamber are always at the disposal of the press, business men and general public, who will always find there all the principal commercial newspapers and reviews.Mr.Laporte propcsed the formation of a lmnited partnership with a view to obtaining from the Ottawa Government a charter that will enable the Chamber to purchase a property.Messrs.O.S.Perrault, Alfred Trudel, H.Dufort and J.E.Beaudry were admitted as new memhbevs of the Chamber and the meeting adjourned.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 DOMINION ALLIANCE.IMPORTANM MEETING TO BE HELD.An important meeting of the executive of the Quebec provincial branch will be held on Tuesday evening, Sept.11, in the Young Men\u2019s Christian Association rooms.Several matters of special interest will be considered.The action to be \u2018taken by the temperance electors in the next general election, the legislation to be asked from the provincial legislature and the question of provincial plebiscite are among the items to be discussed.All organizations in sympathy with the work of the Alliance are invited to send a delegate to this meeting.res FRESH AIR FUND.DIXIR'S SYMPATHETIC LITTLE ONES.Six little children, Paul, Hugo and Ruth Mactariane, Alice and Kate Latimer and Olive Richardson, desirous of helping the \u2018Children\u2019s Fresh Air Fund.\u2019 gave a concert, tableaux vivants and magic lantern entertainment last evening at the residence of Mr.R.J.Latimer, Dixie.The efforts of the children were much appreciated, and successful to the extent of gathering in the sum of $9.05, which was duly handed over to the proper parties.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 INDISCREET POSTMASTERS.The \u2018Moniteur du Commerce\u2019 complains of the indiscretion of some postmasters in country districts where postcards and unsealed letters are sometimes read and the contents made known to strangers before the persons to whom they are addressed receive them.elf PERSONAL.Mr.Ernest Tetreault has been elected president of the Law Students\u2019 Association of Laval Uuniversity.She will remain here until next \u2018Royal House of France.CD A © OPEN BUNDAYS SRN | À, 5 / = itn à ne +10 essere her en M ATTITUDE OF SOME POLICEMEN ON THE SUNDAY QUESTION.COUNT OF PARIS DBD.END OF AN INTERESTING CAREER.London, Sept.8.\u2014The Count of Paris: \u20acéled at Stowp House shortly before eight o'clock this morning.He began to sink visibly at midnight, but at intervals was clearly conscious, recognizing the Countess and his children -as they bent over him, and murmuring words of affection for them.All the members of his family were around him when he died.© Louis Philtppe Albert d\u2019Orleans, Count | à Paris, son of the late Duc d'Orleans, and grandson of the late Louis Phi re.'

and on Dec.22, 1872, the Assembly voted the restitution of the property of the Orleans family.On Aug.5, 1873, the Comte de Paris had the celebrated interview at Frohsdorf with the Comte de Chambord, whom he acknowledged as the head ofthe After the death of the Comte de Chambord (Aug.24, 1883) the great majority of the Legitimists acknowledged the Comte de Paris as his successor.A remarkable article entitled, \u2018L\u2019Allemagne et ses Tendences nouvelles,\u2019 which appeared in the \u2018Revue des Deux Mondes,\u2019 in August, 1867, and attracted considerable attention, is sald to have been written by the Comte de Paris.He was also the author of \u201cLes Associations Ouvrieres en \u201cAngleterre,\u201d Paris, 1869.an English translation of which, by N.J.Senior, M.A., was published the same year in London, under the title of \u2018The Trades Unions of England\u2019; and of \u2018Histoire de la Guerre Civile en Amerique,\u2019 vols.I.and II., Paris, 1874.The con- Sludieg volumes of this work appeared in 1883.In 1886 the Government in\u2018ro- duced and passed the Expulsion.bill, forbidding the soil of France to the direct heirs of .families that had reigned in France.This was chiefly directed against the Comte de Paris, who accordingly, amidst demonstrations of sorrow from a multitude of friends, left Treport fdr England in July.The Comte de Paris married his cousin, the Princess Marie-Isabelle-Francoise d'Assise Antonia Louisa Fernanda, eldest daughter of THE COUNTESS OF PARIS.the Duc de Montpensier, May 30, 1864, and has six children, two sons, Prince Louis Phillippe Robert (born Feb.6, 1869), and Prince Ferdinand Francois (born Sept.9, 1834), and three daughters.The Comte and Comtess celebrated their silver wedding at their seat near Tun- bridge Wells, in July, 1889.1 SECOND VISIT TO AMERICA.The Count's seonnd visit to America was padd in 1890.The chief object of his journey was to see Gettysburg and other battleflelds of the civil war, and to visit Washington and the Niagara Falls.He was received with great cordiality.Among the most notable incidents of his few wecks' stay was a dinner given to him in New York by over a hundred of his old frierfis and comrades of the army of the Potomac, when he was toasted as \u2018Our Comrade, Captain Louis Philippe d\u2019Orleans.\u2019 Before leaving for Europe the Count extended his tour to Canada, spending several days in Montreal and Quebec, where he was received with enthusiastic hospitality.STOWE HOUSE: Stowe Heuse, where the Comte de Paris has resided with his family since his exile, was the seat of the late Duke of Buckingham and Chandos.The Duke left it to his oldest daughter, Lady Kinloss, THE DUKE OF ORLEANS, FH His Eldest Son and Heir.who is married to Captain Morgan, and it was from Lady Kinloss that the place was taken by the Count.A considerable sum had to be spent in redecorating and refurnishing, for about half the house, which resembles -an immense barracks, had been closed for over forty years.Stace the sensational sale of 1848, which followed the financial crash of the second Duke's affairs in 1847, the place had never been properly kept up, and many of the rooms are empty.The gardens and park +R - ;

Appeals sat till a late hour las: Lerdon, Ont, Sept.eye night with closed doors.Dr.Carman presided.The result of the appeal created cons'derable sensation.The Rev.J.C.Ash's appeal agalnst the Bay of Quinte | Confareonce being sustained on a techni- cailty as to procedure.Mr.Ash was deposed fron: the pulpit and expelled from the ~hurch some months ago for immorality, which before the Investigating committee he was considered to have con- fessod.The case goes back to the Bay of Quinte conference to be reopened.If Mr.Ash succeeds In finally upsetting his expulsion and deposition he will in spite of misconduct, secure his superannuation allowance.- THE BICYCLE ARRAIGNED.(To the Editor of the \u2018 Witness.) Sir,\u2014At such a time as this when the city council are in much need of finances why not tax all bicycles on the streets ?All other carriages are taxed and I think it would bo justice to all if a tax was levied.The thought came into my mind for this cause: I have had the experience of being nearly run down several times by bicycles.Teke for instance in getting of a street car, either a carriage or a bicycle wili fly past.I would suggest +hat each bicycle be taxed and have a number, so that if any accidents occur by them their number can be taken, whereas, as it now is a person can be run down and there is nothing to show who the party is.When the streets are so crowded with cars of all kinds something will have to be done to pro- tact the lives of citizens.Hoping, Mr.Editor, that you wili find space in your valuable paper for these few lines.A CITIZEN AND CONSTANT READER OF YOUR PAPER.If bleyclers are to be licensed and numbered why not all other citizens ?We have sometimes thought how convenient it would be if every citizen was required to have his name upon him in big letters in full view.The sense of being known wherever we went would make us very mindful of our ways.We hardly think we should like it, however.Seriously, however, beginners at bicycling should confine thtemselves to places where they have plenty of room; in the street there should be some warning sound produced by tho machine.\u2014_ DOES MONTREAL NEED A REVIVAL ?(To the Editor of the \u2018 Witness.\") .Sir,\u2014Not many Sabbaths ago it was my privilege to worship in one of the churches of Montreal.Being from the country I felt no small interest in ascertaining how religion was prospering in a \u2018city boasting of having no fewer than .seventeen Presbyterian congregations, and \u2018a great many more congregations of other | Protestant churches.\u2018If the congrega- | tion I worshipped in be an Index of the others (and I think it would prove, on careful examination, to be even pretty near the top in the scale of spirituality) | Protestantism in Montreal is sadly in i peed of a revival of the New Hampshire or Dundee type.Let me give a few \u2018facts to impress the above sad idea of religion in your fair city on the minds of , the readers of the \u2018 Witness.\u2019 .| 1.In the first place several of the city pastors leave their congregations for two or more months during the summer or leave their pulpits for others to preach from.Others, finding that the great bulk of their well-to-do parishioners have gone to the sea shore and that the poor need not have the gospel always preached to them, close up their churches for a month or more.Of course it 18 weariness to the flesh to preach when the thermometer is at eighty degrees, and, better still, it does not pay.What effect can such a system have upon congregations composed, as they must be, of different classes of people, apart altogether from its deadening influences ?t certainly will not help to make the working man have much faith in his spiritual adviser\u2019s interest in him; ; and it will undoubtedly give, in bis es- i timation, the lie to the common saying, i\u2018 We be all brethren.\u2019 I am far from {saying that city ministers should not have hotidays, and also should not give their congregations the privilege, if it is a | privilere, to hear strangers now and | again.But why take these holidays when the season would give an occasion ; for the poor people to think that their minister was the mintster of the rich and | not of the poor as well ?.I was very much struck with the \u2018politzness of the officebearers of the church !I worshipped in.But politeness and \u2018kindness are two different things.The .two when together make a splendid com- .bination, but the former without the lat- , ter is cnough to freeze the marrow in the \u2018bones.One would naturally expect, that rulers in the church would have some of | the spirit of the Master in them, and \"that strangers would receive a warm ' Christian welcome from them.Instead of that he was treated with dead formality.3.On complaining of the above treatment to a Montreal resident I was told that the very church I worshipped in had ; some families worshipping in it Sabbath after Sabbath for years past and they have never yer been spoken to by the officebearers.Is that Christianity ?How \"lgng at that rate will our Protestant !enhurchez of Montreal take to convert its , Reman Catholic popuiaticn to the religion : Of Jesus Chrïst ?T am afraid if our city brethren do not better their cbndition ; spiritually the question may he put gqif- i ferently.Where is the fruit of your late | revival under B.Fay Mills ?1 am afraid - that experience of yours when you stated i that rhe city was shaken to its foundatinn was pretty much like that of the poor ; woman who used'to confess at every revival that she was never converted until then.Cortainly Montreal neeas a revival of the right kind now for its enirt- tual life is at a very low ebb indeed.A COUNTRY MINISTER.\u2014\u2014 CITY ITEMS.A notice of a suit for 3500 damages for false arrest has been served on the city by Mr.A.Guertin.The

GOVERNMENT CROP REPORT\u2014WHAT SHALL IT BE.Wheat opened about steady to-day at yesterday's prices, but later quotations were much as not to give the bulls an over-con- fident feeling.Corn opened about % of a cent below yesterday's closing figures, but later on recovered and gave promises of going higher.Advices from the West indicate free consumption of wheat for feeding purposes.There is considerable speculation upon the Government report of the corn crop which will be issued next Mon- dav and the guesses cover a pretty wide range.The lowest estimate seems to be about 1.300,000.600 bushels.In view of the growing Interest manifested in the use of wheat as animal food and the probability of such becoming an Important factor in the market a large Chicago commission firm gent to a large number of correspondents throughout the West a letter asking for information as to what extent the farmers are using their wheat for feed purposes.A greal many replles were received and all showed that wheat is being used extensively for fced purposes.WHOLESALE PRICES.Bearbhohm's céble advices to-day are as follows: \u2014Cargoes off coast, wheat slow; do.maire, nil.Cargoes on passage

in his address as president of the Literary and Scientific section of the Grindelwald Conference, dealt with the problem of how to make the most of life.He said: I once knew an engineer who had charge of a large stationary engine which had been at work for about ninety years, and had had eight masters, seven of whom had died or become disabled.\u2018Very strange,\u201d sald the engineer, \u2018that an engine should last so much longer than a man.\u201d But the engine was equable in its work, it never ran loose, it was bright as a new pin, true in its vocation, clean in every point, was served with the simplest food of its kind, and {its furnace tubes kept clear, and drank nothing but water.So it lived on, while Its masters died.A striking lesson.A man or woman who lived frugally, who took sufficient of the stmple food they were made to subsist on, and no more, who drank the one natural fluid, water, were fitted primarily to make the best of life, the atrongest, the most active, the most enduring life.Presuming human beings are born of good and wholesome constitutions, they are, except for acei- dental destructive agencies, in a fair way to live five times their maturity, that is five times twenty-one years, the ratural term of the anatomical life, namely 105 years, a term few reach, but which is attainable as a matter of experience, and so attainable, as a matter \u2018of natural law, that the majority of men and women would attain it if they lived properly.\u2019 RELIGIOUS NOTICES.DORCHESTER STREET METHODIST CHURCH, corner St.Urbain.\u2014Services at 11 a.m.and 7

Draper, Ot- tana: Metcalfe, of Montreal, and two others.This is the beginning probably of an amalgamation of interest between these two great classes, the farmer and the artisan ænd if they united at the polls in enforcing their common demands then there would de projected into thé political world a force before whose weight the existing political parties would bend or break.The following resolution bro t on by a special committee was ad : That the present system of immigration expenditure be abolished and that a scheme of unemployed citizen celonization be adopted in specified sections of the North- West under which direct financial assistance from the Dourinioh resources would be advanced to each settler under certain defined and liberal conditions, this resolution to be laid before the Dominion gov- | erument.Resokrtions were carrted calling for the appointment of a factory inspector by the Quebeo Legislature for the Ottawa district and a2 inspector of scaffolding.It was moved by Mr.Dubreull, seconded by Mr.G.S.Warren, that the government be urged to change the law so that the parents who send their children under foyrtesn fo work in shops or factory b>» made liable to punishment.The mover told the congress that in the Hochelaga Cotton mdls pereuis took six, eight, or ten of their children to work, and the books Inspected by the factory inspector showed children aged -ten, eleven or twelve to be 15 or 16 and the parents if examined would declare them to be fiftesn or sixteen.These miis, sald Mr.Du- breutl, are unhealthy and the things that are going on there are something dread- fui.The resolution was opposed by the vice-pregident, Mr.Jobin, as an interfer ence between parent and child, but carried.The Dominion Gbvernment was asked by resolution to appoint.letter carriers fn all towns over five thousand imhabitants.At present \u2018the limit is ten thousand.A resolution asking the government to introduce a bill making an eight hour day compulsory on all public contracts, was carried.Mr.Page, of Hull, moved, seconded by Mr.P.C.Chatel, that the various legls- iaiures be petitioned to authorize the run- ring of street oars on Sunday.This rais- el a storm of protest.Mr.Darlington declared that it was a disgrace to Mont- teal to have cars running on Sunday.The cngress bad no right to endorse an immoral act and no right to take pleasure at the expense of Sumday læbor.Messrs.Caulter.Jebin, Carey.and Susithendorsed these sentiments and Messrs.Macdonald, oI Ottawa, moved in amendment that the «> COBB, BATES & YERXA.BEAL, HIGGINS & HENDERSON, ROBBINS & APPELTON.R.H.WHITE & CO.HOUGHTON & DUTTON.HALLET & DAVIS PIANO CO.OLIVER DITSON.FITCHBURG R.R: CO.CHASE & SANBORN.ADAMS EXPRESS QO.JOHN P.LOVELL ARMS & CO.EDISON GENERAL ELECTRIC co.During the past two months in Montreal the Warehouses of MESSRS.GAULT BROS.& CO.MONTREAL WATCH CASE CO.MESSRS.JAMES JOHNSTON & CO.THE DOMINION ROLLED PLATE CO.MESS8R& H.SHORTY & CO.MONTREAL SILK MILLS CO.MESSRS.ROBT.LINTON & CO.Have been equipped with this Fire Alarm.The Canada Board of Underwriters allow a rebate on insurance for its use.We shall be pleased to quote prices for the installation of the same for Warehouses and Factories.THE DOMINION BURGLARY GUARANTEE COY., Lid., 181 St.James Strect.Drink _ tserrat Lime Fruit Juice It is a Refreshing, Iovigorating Temperance Beverage.Made from ripe fruit, it is absolutely pure and wholesome.Dilute with water and sweeten to taste.Wu.ASTOR.THE BRADSTREET CO.McKESSON & ROBBINS.YOU HAVE THE BEST VALUE!

It was a black night.Monsignor | stepped to the barometer and said to the hard-faced lady that there was a fall.\u2018Small wonder,\u2019 said he, \u2018that the ; fellows who are on deck should be glad to have Captain Sinclair to take charge.\u2019 \u2018Hark ! Macbride.It reached the ear in a hollow, echoing rumble, and was accompanied by the hoarse yowling of pulling and dragging sallors.\u2018They have let go the maintopsail .halliards\u2019 said Colonel Wills, who had made the passage often enough to know the ropes, \u2018and are going to reef the sail, I suppose.\u2018Surely they never would have sent the captain adrift in an open boat on such a night as this,\u2019 exclaimed Mr.\" Macbride, whose face looked as white; as his clerical tie as he and his wife sat swaxing to the swings of the ship whose lggpwgrd fetches were growing | sharper and sharper.i It was long before I could sleep for wondering what they meant to: do with the passengers.All this while the ship was rushing south, to what part of the world had they agreed to steer her ?I lay feverish with the hurry of my thoughts, miserable with amazement and anxiety.My berth was to leeward, and my bunk just under the cabin port-hole, and every minute the ship as she swept along the slant of the roaring ridges plunged her side into the seething cataract that swelled about my head with the thunder of a hurricane.It blew a black, wet, hard gale.The creaking and rending noises in the ship drowned all other sounds, yet I knew by the motion not more than by the flashing of white brine that they held her throughout the wild hours ceaselessly rushing through it.In the morning so great a sea ran that it was scarcely possible to walk.What's that 7 cried Mr.SCARCELY POSSIBLE TO WALK.By clinging and clawing 1 reached a seat in the saloon.A few passengers sat here and there; they were the picture of dejection ; the comedian of a grimy blue for want of the razor, and Mrs.Wills scarcely recognizable through her hair having floated out of curl.The steward was making some show of preparing breakfast, but he moved in a manner that gave us no promise of a meal for another hour at least.The cabin ing thing.In the middle of breakfast Captain Sinclair came below.He pulled off his streaming sou\u2019-wester and oilskin coat, and let them drop on the \u2018OH, CAPTAIN, DON'T TALK S80.\u2019 deck by the side of his chair, making a bow to right and left before seating himself.His face had hardened into an iron mask.I met his glance\u2014it, was a distortion of the lips, no smile certainly that he returned my nod with.\u2018What news can you give us, Captain ?\u201d howled Colonel Wills.\u2018None that you\u2019ll thank me for.\u2019 \u2018Have the men decided upon a destination ?' enquired Mr.Jackson.\u2018Yes, sir.\u2019 Every face seemed to turn wild and white with eagerness at this\u2014 every neck was stretched.Monsignor put his hand to his ear.The captain remained silent.\u2018Will you name the place to us, Captain ?' shouted the grasshopper.\u2018The Great Salvage Island,\u201d answered my stepfather.\u2018Where was that ?\u2018It's a rock between Madeira and the Canaries,\u2019 the Captain sald, chewing his food slowly, and speaking as though he forced himself to an effort he abhorred, and looking at those who questioned him full and straight under his dark brow.Questions crackled like discharges of musketry, and the distracting motions of the ship, the dartings and leapings of lamps and swing trays, were in that confusion of tongues to heighten it to sheer sick dizziness.How far was the Salvage Island from England ?What was going to happen after the ship arrived there ?\u2018Say I' sings out the Colonel, \u2018are they going to bury the gold buccaneer fashion ?If Madeira isn\u2019t far off from that rock, what's to stop us from sighting it, and privately sig- palling for a man'of-war to follow us ?.\u2018Or couldnt you put into Madeira by mistake, as it were ?said Mr.Jackson.\u2018There\u2019s nearly always a British ship of war lying there.\u2019 \u2018Who says so?\u2019 said the Captain.ell, sir, I don\u2019t know,\u201d answered the comedian, who looked ferocious with a nervous attack, \u2018but I must have read of it, and it\u2019s in my head that it Is so.The Captain slowly masticated his food, looking fixedly at Mr.Jackson.\u2018After all,\u2019 continued the comedian, \u2018since there\u2019s no navigator amongst was sunk in gloom ; nothing better: than a wet, dim twilight sifted\u2019 through the windows when the ship lifted the weeping glass to the gray.sky.\u201cThis wind will carry us very far south ; we shall be crossing the equator in a little while,\u2019 exclaimed Monsignor in a melancholy voice.he steward informed us that the sea was running mountains high ; nevertheless, the ship was sweeping before it under a foresail and reefed' maintopsail ; the gale was on the quarter, and you felt the weight and volume of the mighty ocean surge in each swift, giddy, launching uphea- the twelve scoundrels who've seized us, which of them's to know you're heading for Madeira till we're close enough to the island for distress signals to be seen ?' \u2018Were you ever off Madeira 2° demanded the Captain.\u2018Not to my knowledge.\u2019 \u2018It's a large lump of land, and looms in a big shadow many miles distant,\u201d said the Captain.\u2018There's scarce a man of the twelve who wouldn't know it as we approached when miles off, long before we should be in sight from Funchal, and perceiving that I meant foul play there's val.I asked after my stepfather,: ° \u2018He's been kecping the deck more\u2019 or less all night, miss,\u2019 said the stew-' ard.\u2018He's on deck now.not a man of the twelve who'd grant me a minute for prayer before sending a bullet through my head.\u2019 \u2018Oh, captain, don\u2019t talk so! cried Who's | Mrs.Wills, upheaving her shapeless he a-going to trust to keep a look-| mass in a start of horror upon the chair, and she dried her great face on her handkerchief.\u2018What I am doing I am forced to do,\u2019 continued the Captain, closing his knife and fork and addressing Monsignor.\u2018It\u2019s a horrible obligation.Yet should I be serving you by so acting as to place myself at the mercy of men whose instant gift of grace would be the yardarm or the knife ?I tell you straight, ladies and gentlemen, that were I to sulk, shut myself up in my cabin, decline to come to any sort of terms with them, they\u2019d toss me over the side to perish in an open boat with no more compunction than I feel in breaking this ;\u2019 he snapped a biscuit, whilst his eyes seemed on fire as he talked.\u2018I may be of service to you and the ship whilst I am on board\u2014 there are no certainties at sea\u2014a few hours might easily find all well with us.\u2019 Mr.Macbride clasped his hands and looked up.\u2018But I tell you as things stand, we are helpless.The men have posses- slon of the decks, and they are armed.I have no fears for your safety, nor for your personal property.I have stipulated for that.If they leave the vessel at the Salvage Island we shall have to work her to the Canaries or to Madeira amongst ourselv2s.He stood up, and said, \u2018I ask your sympathy for my situation-\u2014no, your forbearance will suffice.I have lost my ship.I am miserable enough to be obliged to see women and children, both here and in the \u2019tween- decks, placed in my charge, distracted some of them, wretched all of them, by the feeling of insecurity, by the tragic uncertainty of their position, by the fears that their lives are endangered.More\u2014I know by this stroke (unless I save the ship) that I am professionally ruined.\u2019 His voice broke.It seemed as though he would speak on ; bowing hurriedly he withdrew to his cabin.I thought hé would wish to talk with me presently, and watched the cabin door, thinking to see it open and himself beckon.He came out indeed after half an hour, but merely to pick up his oilskins, put them on, and stalk up the steps.The gale hummed fiercely throughout the morning, but shortly before mid-day a flash of wet sunshine slipped in white splendor from one reeling cabin window to another, and shortly afterwards the tarpaulins were removed from the skylights, the companion doors were opened, and the steward descended.I think we were nearly all of us then assembled in the saloon.\u2018Ladies and gentlemen, said the man, \u2018any half dozen of you, three ladies and three gents, who would feel disposed to take the air are at liberty to go on deck for their enter-{ tainment,\u2019 \u2018Who sent that message ?\u2019 called out the Colonel, savagely.\u2018I was stopped as I came along by the man called Owen ; he sent it, sir.\u2019 After some talk it was arranged that the three men to go on deck should be Monsignor, Colonel Wills and the actor ; and the ladies were the hard-faced lady, another, and myself.I know not how it was with the rest, but my own heart burned with the humiliation of being let out like Newgate prisoners in a little gang \u2018to take the air.\u2019 I was the first ready and passed on deck.The THE SENTRY CAUGHT ME.companion doors were opened on my knocking.1 stooped low and gained the deck, staggering and nearly falling to a sudden giddiness raised by the whirling, roaring, brilliant life of the day after the gloom of the saloon.The sentry caught me by the arm.I shuddered, instantly rallied, and went a little way to look about e.My stepfather stood upon the ship\u2019s quarter with a sextant in his hand.He saw me but made no other sign than glancing.The man at the hatch was armed with a cutlass ; he was draped midway to the heels in pilot cloth, and wore jack boots and a yellow sou\u2019-wester.Others about the deck were clothed in apparel which they.certainly had not worn nor brought with them in their long boat.Monsignor came to my side and begged me to take his arm, and together we stood looking.It was a marvellous fine scene of ocean.Nothing grander ever rolled under the heavens.The sky above the horizon was painted a delicate dusk with cloud, and the sea flashed like sunbeams against that soft darkness.A vast green noble surge swelled with us as we ran.It foamed to our bulwark rails, and lifted wus high, and our wake was a highway of yeast that topped the lift of the billow and dled out in the dim liquid flickering distance.The sky was a race of large, torn \u2018cloud, white as milk ; the sun of a windy whiteness sprang off their edges, and at each lean the whole surface of the pouring south\u2019 flashed into hills of dazzling light.In the midst rushed the ship ; she stormed along under a few breasts of canvas; her spars looked naked, her rigging yelled, every slack rope arched forwards with her course, and her lofty mastheads reeled to the sovereign height of their white trucks.I observed that a man with a cutlass dangling at his hip lurked about the main hatchway ; no steerage passengers were visible ; of the twelve of a crew eight were to he counted, including the helmsman and a sturdy, broad, red-headed fellow who trudged in that part of the deck which they call the gangway as though he were in charge of the ship.Colonel Wills and the comedian stood staring along the decks and up at the sails; the THE TWO LADIES HUNG TOGETHER.two ladies hung together at the companion unable t~ walk.\u2018If this wind la~23\u2019 said the priest, \u2018it will put an end to uncertainty.Madeira is not far off ; the Great Salvage is close to that island.\u2018Can you imagine what the men intend ?[ \u2018I believe they wifi disembark with the money, then bury it, and sail away, keeping us in the ship, but what they will do afterwards I can't conceive.\u2019 \u2018Is this the result,\u201d said I, \u2018of a prearranged conspiracy, or were the men really shipwrecked wretches, who have been taken on board, risen, and seized the vessel 7\u2019 His French blood rug he gave.y \u201cI should hold that it had been prearranged but for this,\u2019 said he.\u2018What confederates could they have had in the ship ?They sent the original crew, mates and all, out of her.\u2019 \u2018Might not that have been part of the conspiracy 7\u2019 \u2018How could Hayes ?\u2018Supposing\u2014for argument\u2019's sake\u2014 that Mr.Gordon was in the plot.He contrives without suspicion of my stepfather to place the ship on a given day in a position settled upon.\u2019 The priest shook his head.\u2018He secretly helps the men by telling them where the arms\u2019 chest is, or perhaps by taking them to it in some black hour of the middle watch.Nevertheless, Mr.Gordon is put into the boat and sent away with the rest of the people\u2014\u2019 \u2018Why ?He would want a share of the booty.It is not likely he would leave the ship had he betrayed her into the hands of these pirates.\u2019 \u2018Perhaps not,\u2019 said T.Colonel Wills and Mr.Jackson came up to us.\u2018It seems to me,\u2019 said the Colonel, gasping hoarsely in his efforts to make us hear him above the wind, but with a voice that should not reach the companion sentry, \u2018that it ought to be no difficult matter to re-capture this vessel.There may be eight or ten men in the steerage ; then there are ourselves.It's to be done.\u2019 \u2018It's to be done,\u201d exclajmed the comedian, sarcastically, \u2018if they'll let us all out and allow us to arm ourselves, and give us a fair chance, as man to man.But put me into that hole again,\u201d said he, pointing to the companion hatch, \u2018and let that chap there be ready with his cutlass to jab me over the head on my showing myself, and what sort of a draw am spoke in the it serve them, Miss Hr #4 # #4 y \u2018 tt + TTT IF Vi I THOUGHT HE WOULD SINK IN A FIT.I going to make of this ship\u2019s recapture 7\u2019 Just as he said this my stepfather passed us.\u2018Laura, I want you,\u2019 said e.o and I followed of his sextant.and closed the when we were in it.his sextant, seated himself, and s0 postured that my breath left me; I thought he would sink in a fit.He laid one hand upon his breast, the other upon the table, and strangely and slowly clenched his fingers till.the veins showed like whipcord upon: his fist ; meanwhile he looked down upon the table with an expression of grief full of wildness and anger.\u2018Do you remember,\u2019 said he pre- gently, \u2018what Christian sald to Bligh when that captain was getting into the boat ?\u201cI am in hell.1 am in hell.\u201d Tis so with me.\u2019 \u2018Colonel Wills just now on deck said that he thought this ship might.be re-captured.\u2019 - \u2018By whom \u201d' \u2018By Wills and the other men in the saloon ; and then there are eight or ten males in the \u2019tweendecks who would fight for their lives and their liberty, surely.\u2019 \u2018Wills is a Yankee houncing hrag- gart, full of fine possihilities-for other men.He married that huge woman as something to get behind in time of danger.I would advise him to be careful in his talk.words reach the ears of the men who hold the ship I'll not answer for his life.pened.\u2019 \u2018How do you mean ?° sald T.| us.\u2019 \u2018Ay, but they don't know before them; said he.pointing to a locker that I should sit.I watclied \u2018The man Owen and some others came to me on the quarter-deck about an hour ago, and their plan's this : the whole of the passengers, bag and baggage, are to be put ashore on the Great Salvage Island.I am then to carry this ship to a certain Bahama Cay.\u2019 He stopped, eying me intently.\u201cWhy.said I.fetching my breath, \u2018I don't think the passengers will object to being set ashore.Anything better than being imprisoned.living in a constant state of uncertainty and terror, never knowing hut that we may all be butchered if it should suit the ruffians to change their plans.\u2019 \u2018Yet they'll not like to be put ashore on the Great Salvage Island.It's a bare rock, not much bigger than half a dozen ships of this size.Did vou think there was a town and hotels on it \u2018The people will be glad to get out of this ship anyhow, [ said.deira is not far distant \u201d' \u2018Nor the Canaries,\u2019 said he.\u2018And I suppose,\u201d said I, \u2018that skips frequently pass within sight of the island ?He nodded inattentively, and said \u2018They\u2019ll not like it.I hate the idea of assenting to it.again, clenching his fist in the former odd slow way, as though he did it in his sleep, or was catching at dry sand.\u2018And not only ruined ;

make some excuse; tell \u2019em I can\u2019t come.\u201d The want of professional enthusiasm that could coolly miss such an opportunity, carried its doom within itself, and at the end of two and a half years, the partnership was dissolved by mutual consent.Another partnership lasted but six months, and a newspaper enterprise having also proved unsuccessful, Dr.Holland took a position as teacher in Virginia, and afterwards became superintendent of public schools in Vicksburg.Here he graded the a ay KEEP ON COMING PUT YOU UP TOALL THE LATEST IMPROVEMENTS PUGK,OCT 25-1893 AGH ce 1E GAM\u2014 CHEER UP JOHNNY UNCLE © OVER AND I'LL A \u2014 \u2014 AN AMERICAN - MISTAKE CORRECTED.John Bull :\u2014\u2018 Cheer up Sammy, keep on coming over and I'll put you up to all the latest improvements.\u2019 0 A Ay ui \u2014=s yy JS _\\ \u2014 | A ss vi gs 20 ylt schools and made a brilliant success of his work.His wife taught the | primary department, earning $10 a week, enough to pay for their board.In the vacation he visited Louisiana, and wrote \u2018Sketches of Plantation Life,\u201d published in the \u2018Springfield Republican.\u2019 After nine years of such changes and experiments Dr.Holland came north and became assistant editor of the same \u2018Springfield Republican,\u201d which under the, energetic management of Mr.Bowles | had attained a national reputation.For this he wrote the \u2018History of Western Massachusetts,\u201d a work which involved \u2018the discovering and deciphering of no end of musty old! documents and a careful sifting of involved and conflicting accounts,\u201d a work which brought him the recognition he craved in the literary world.After this he prepared at Mr.Bowles's suggestion a series of letters, of moral advice signed \u2018Timothy Tit- comb,\u2019 written for plain work-a-day people.He addressed them on the commonest kind of omissions and neglects, and as to phases of their lives, had he not seen them all in the wanderings and vicissitudes and deprivations of his own.When a plain farmer's wife would hurry her bread into the oven, ; and seize her Saturday\u2019s paper, and tear off the wrapper, saying: \u2018I must ses what \u201cTimothy Titcomb says this week,\u201d before she washed her hands or looked at the marriages and deaths, we may believe that he spoke to a real want, and addressed an audience that was waiting to be taught.He touched commonplace lives to finer, nobler issues.A farmer in one of our hill towns sought the sympathy and advice of his pastor, as his married life had not proved all he had hoped for, and at that special juncture the relations between himself and wife were greatly \u2018\u2018stralned,\u201d in fact, he was contemplating separation.The pastor wisely declined to advise in a case when it was plain that both parties Were to blame.A awe wt Wy ar a A Fw ww we few days after he was driving by the field where the man was working.He at once came forward, and addressing the minister, said: \u2018I've thought that matter over again.Did you read Doctor Holland in Saturday's paper?\u2018No, I was too busy with my sermon,\u2019 was the reply.\u2018Well, Holland was talking about how husbands and wives ought to treat sach other, and I see I've been wrong myself.So I've made up my mind to stan by the woman, for better or for worse, till death do us part.\u201d The letters, published in a volume, found a permanent place in thousands of homes, and half a million of copies of this and Dr.Holland's other works were sold before his death.In 1867 Dr.Holland went to Europe, where he spent two years.In a conversation on a bridge in Geneva with Mr.Roswell Smith the publication of a new magazine was determined upon, and in November, 1870, the first number of \u2018Scribner's Monthly\u2019 -appeared, the name being changed eleven years after for that of the \u2018Century Magazine.\u2019 The new magazine started without a subscriber, but never printed or sold less than forty thousand copies a month.It absorbed \u2018Hours at Home,\u2019 \u2018Putnam's\u2019 and the \u2018Riverside.\u2019 For this magazine Dr.Holland wrote four hundred of the pungent sermonettes and short discourses on passing events called \u2018Topics of the Time,\u2019 and thus continued to be a power in the land until he died.The last sentence which he wrote, left lying on his desk ready for the \u2018next issue,\u201d was as follows :\u2014 , When Mr.Samuel Bowles lay dying he said: \u2018There is nothing the matter with me but thirty-five years of hard work,\u201d and if one cons the list of successful editors they are not a long-lived race, and it is not work but worry that.kills; it ig easy to believe EN 2 ae | ' i that the pressure to have just so much done on time creates the necessity for a strenuous style of effort, under which the very springs of life must eventually snap.The book is neatly printed and illustrated.(W.Foster Brown.) 2222 PLAINSPOKEN, AT LEAST.(To the Editor of the \u2018 Witness.\u201d) Sir, \u2014 I have lived for the last month in Montreal, and the impression made upon me by the city and its government is of a very curious character.I would like to say that I am charmed with the great natural beauty of Montreal.Its situation cannot be surpassed, and its surroundings as seen from the mountain are both varied and extensive.The number of churches suggest an ardent and zealous (if nct an aggressive) religious life, while .the many and beautiful public buildings indicate commercial activity and prosperity.\u2018Windsor\u2019 is an appropriate name for your \u2018regal hotel,\u2019 and the \u2018 Victoria Hospital\u2019 is the practical outcome of the philanthropy of your successful sons.Your railway stations are large and convenient, and your city and river traffic deserves honorable mention.One of the best organizations in the city is the fire brigade, which, I think, is second to none in the world, and I have seen many.It is a pity, however, that certain things anything but creditable should be forced upon a new sojourner within your gates, I will try to point out a few: 1.Your educational system appears to he without form and void, except your excellent university and its immediate connections.You have no code of education worthy the name, as in the mother country.No free education, or compulsory attendance.Your method of levying and raising an education tax *s curious and its collection and distribution open to serious comment.2.Your police force is overhearing and inefficient, and the press during the last few days has been abusing (lhe chief of the police and the detective force.An ostentatious dispiay of power by batoning FN tne mel TA a pg eet \" and charging a crowd of sightseers does not go very far in proving the efficiency of the constabulary, while a considerable number of undetected burglaries does prove inefficiency.3.Gambling of an obnoxious character is carried on in your parks and public places and your police stand by without power | | and with the greatest complacency.They even indulge in gambling at their own poiice pienic.Truly your chief consiable must be a valuable-man.He appears to be able to wriggle out of any unleasent- ness or rosponsibility\u2014a veritable champion wriggler.4.Your methcd of administering justice partakes somewhat of the mysterious.1 supposed (but perhaps I am mistaken) that the Dominion of Canada formed part of the British Empire, that the law courts administered justice according to British law, and yet I read in your dally papers that a Briton tried in your courts had evidence given against him in a \u2018foreign language ' and was told by the presiding justice that he was not obliged to have the same interpreted to him.A day or two afterwards he was sentenced in the same language with the same remarks.How can these things be ?5.I'am also puzzled to know which is the national flag of Canada.I had he- lieved: that the Union Jack, or the English ensign with the maple leaves and the beaver would be the recognized emblem of the governing power of the British Empire.- Instead of that being so I have the choice of four, in the following order: (1.) The Democratic and Republican tricolor of France with the maple leaves and besver.The same without the Canadian arms.(2.) The English ensign and Canadian emblems.(3.) The Stars and Stripes.(4) The green flag of Erin, with the harp.A little information on this point inserted in your guide books, would confer a boon on many who are doubtful on ths subject.6.Your municipal affairs as reported in your papers must draw forth uncomplimentary remarks from those recently arrived from older civilization.For instance: The laborers employed by the city to pave and Improve the streets were coolly informed that there were no funds in the city exchequer and that they must wait for their wages.Pardon my presumption in making these remarks; but that is \u2018how it strikes a stranger.\u2019 SINBAD.THE \u2018VIGILANT'S\u2019 MISHAPS.It is a great relief to all Americans interested in the noble sport of yachting to learn that the \u2018Vigilant\u2019 will take no further part in English races this season.One can now take up a newspaper witbh- out a nervous dread of finding in it a cable despatch saying that some new mishap has befallen her centreboard.Nothing quite so uncertain as that centreboard has ever appeared in international yachting.In one race it was hopelessly jammed; in amother it was dropped; before another could be begun it had either fallen at the bottom of the sea or had In some mysterious manner hidden itself from the gaze of its friends.Several times official inquiries were necessary in order to say exactly what had become of it.Formal statements, accompanied by affidavits, had to be made in order to satisfy the public as to whether it bad really dropped out, or had been wedged, or its chaln had broken.Just where the \u2018pesky,\u2019 thing is at this moment, whether lying at the bottom of the sea, or hanging from the bottom of the yacht, or hidden away in its trunk, seems to be uncertain.There are many wise opinions put forth to the effect that if the centreboard had behaved better the \u2018Vigilant\u2019 would have won more races but it cannot be claimed that its behu- viour has demonstrated the seawortny qualities or scientific merits of centreboard yachts.\u2014N.Y.\u2018Pcst.\u2019 tlm CURE OF BAD SIGHT IN SCHOOLBOYS (From the London \u2018Globe.\u201d) In the French public schools 24.2 per- cënt of the scholars are shortsighted; in the German 35 percent and in the English, only 20 percent.According to M.Martin in the \u2018Journal de Medicine de Bordeaux,\u2019 the percentage is highest in the rkotoric and philosophy classes.The hygienic condition of the schools does not seem to affect the percentage of and he thinks that want of physical exercise is the cause of the trouble.By modifying the work of the classes the proportion of shortsighted scholars at the college of Giesseln has fallen from 2§.- 6 to 17 percent in five years.M.Martin recommends reasonable perlods of physical exercise between the hours of study.While preventing short-sighted- ness, these will not detract from the efficiency of the scholar, iW ; ) \u2018PTR D ON MORTHER i INSPECTOR RODBICi~ ON THE ATH 1ia-« KATCTHIEW A LONG A: 13 !< 11 (Winnipeg ro.Mr.Charles HE.LU: Government turned from a tre\u2019 Day s'eamers.\u20ac \u2018 and a half.Ho» of Fort Smith, vi mL Steg, on Tnur,da- from Calgary, where off to the nosh ro F at the north-ruste.barra distri.mies of roads en between Grand Flag and dit net canplife oh trip.Th- called a sturgeon lien rajads~ hod 1 ; at both ends which ir water, The \u2018Crew sus There is a filet of «0x of = mare the Journey thro | cargues of Finlson > Puv # ous forts, making vire\u201d steamer \u2018Athabasca\u2019 and \u2018he ham.\u2019 Mr.Roberisen descrited there as Wild and rure-d | heavily wooded, and Li \u201cncss.Bears ave vorr 4» ox He further to the noth Lack with him seine ver, OUT of conglomerate rocks, je 7 the hearts of some Lig oe \u201cmines at Edmonton nd \u201cThere are natura!
