patient.Breckinridge had on his side all the political heelers and managers of the primary meetings, wbere the delegates are elected, and it was claimed that his workers had the power to fix things all right so that his delegates would be elected.They passed a regulation requiring that in the primary meetings all who voted should be pledged to support the choice of the delegates, knowing that many of the Owens voters would not pledge themselves to support Breck- inridge if nominated.This regulation was set aside by an injunction of the court.Finally, when it was too late to have it contradicted, Breckinridge started a report to the effect that Owens had been guilty of the most hideous immorality.In spite of all his eloquence, of all his ability, of all his work, of all his tricks, Breckinridge has been defeated by.Owens by a majority said to exceed three hundred in a total vote of over fifteen thousand.This is not as decisive a victory as, con- Bidering everything, ought to have been gained, but it will have a good effect, and Breckinridge is consigned ?by it to the political and social ob- security he ought to have voluntarily sought long ago.INSPECTOR STREET

Montrealers, who know a good thing when they find it, have purchased property, while some houses are rented in the summer months.There are no cars, only the dally boat to vary the stillness of the rural scene, but the air is fresh and pure, and just now the chief pictures in the landscape are orchards laden with red apples, the branche; bending and breaking with their fruitage.In its season each fruit ®® grown, and much of the city's supply of garden raspberries, currants and gooseberries, early tomatoes, grapes and apples are from this undisturbed corner.The apple crop this year is heavy and in driving along the highway one passes trees of this fruit by the wayside and in fields that are apparently unguarded, yet seeming to bo no temptation to any one.There is a cheese factory that takes the milk supply from the dairy farms, but the general farming is mixed, being a little grain, a little dairying and in most instances an orchard and a garden that includes a little of everything that gardens can supply.The soil is a rich loam and crops are easily raised, while trees planted as they are by \u2018rivers of water,\u2019 grow luxuriantly and resist drought better than in the uplands.THE SUMMER RESIDENTS, include Mr.George Boulter, of the city, whose cottage is the rendezvous for well- known yacht men from the opposite shore.A very successful lawn party was given there In August for the ambitious purpose of rasing money to lay a sidewalk between the basin and the upper village, a mile above, where the two churches stand.It was a bright fairy- like scene, lighted up by Chinese Jan- terns.There was an out-door platform, where singing and speeches, and gay music made the evening a pleasant one to be long remembered.Young ladies pretty costumes gold candy and ice cream and as a practical result it is expected that half a mile of sidewalk will be laid this fall.Social ovenings, bay waggon drives and the usual boating and fishing excursions made time pass pleasantly, and the close of the summer was celebiated by a concert at Hillside, the residence of Mr.Robert Jack, one of the cldest settlers at the Basin.The affair was almost Impromptu and marked the close of a very pleasant summer.A number of young ladies and gentlemen took part with great credit, and the \u2018 Holy City\u2019 was sweetly rendered by the Misses Doulter, one of whom played a violin obligato.Miss Ross, of Montreal, sang with great pow- \u2018er and finish of the planistet, Miss Jean Ross, showed a proficiency and patetnce that was marvellous.It was a fortunate incident that Mr.Ritchie Bell was present, and he delighted the audience with his singing, and the power and drollery of his inimitable recitations.Others, whose names are not so familiar, called forth encores.So closes the summer, and now tha birds of passage, with trunks and bundles and household furniture, will be seen on board the steamer \u2018Fil- gate,\u201d wanding their way homeward, and the autumn days come bringing wild duck and bright hued leaves, harvesting of fruits and vegetables before the rigors of a Canadian winter sets in._\u2014\u2014\u2014 JONES-CAMPBELL.Toronto, Sept.17.\u2014Society circles were somewhat agitated on Saturday morning on reading among the marriage notices in the \u2018Empire\u2019 that on July 3, nearly three months ago Miss Marjcrie Frederica Sand- with Campbell, daughter of the late Sir Alexander Camptell, K.M.C.G., Lieuten- ant-Governor of Ortario, had been married to Mr.William Wallace Jones, barrister, son of Clarkson Jones, and a well known figure among cricketers.The engagement of the couple is a romantic story.Three years ago they went to Europe to be wedded but something cccurred which caused the match to be broken off.Since then the breach has been healed but estrangements have taken place several times.The wedding has been expected at different times and delayed for some cause until friends of the young folks began to be fearful of speaking on the subject to those concerned for fear that fresh developments had taken place.Since their last meeting it was whispered about on Thursday that the couple were married and today it transpires that they have been married for thres months.[ES SIGHT SEERS AT HINCKLEY.THE TOWN RISING FROM ITS ASHES.Hinckley, Minn., Sept.17.\u2014Excursion- tests flocked to this region from every direction yesterday.The rains on Friday put out all the forest fires.The railways supplied trains free and excursionists paid for the transportation any amount they pleased.One party from St.Cloud, contributed over $1,000 to the relief fund.The gloom over this region has been dispelled to somes extent, and Hinckley is now the busiest place in Minnesota.A large amount has been appropriated by the Btate commissioner for the people of Hinckley, and more than half of it is being expended in rebuilding the place.Many men bave been given employment, SPORTS AND PASTIMES, THE FALL

diminutive evangelical alliance, was organized early in June.The body consisted then and does still of Mr.T.H.Allan and seven or eight gentlemen.Mr.Allan himself is constantly active.The contingent is subject to occasional variation, and sometimes ladies have assisted in its work.The function of the body is to hold street meetings in places where traffic will not be interrupted.On Sunday morning there is very little trafic anywhere down town, and virsually none upon the wharf and at the Bonsecours market.These have therefore been favorite resorts for Mr.Allan and his friends.who sometimes speak from the \u2018Gospel Patrol Waggon, stationary or in motion, and sometimes while standing on the ground.The first two Sundays on Which meetings were held on the wharf all passed off smoothly.is air) \\ > dl, 5 3 ARS 5 E-\u2014, 9 NY fl JO X A.à were attracted by the novelty of the proceedings, and the sincere religious eiement which is never absent from Mr.Allan's audience seemed to pre- dcminate.Some idlers hooted on the outskirts of the crowd as they passed, but that was all.The preachers were not so fortunate the third Sundays That day two or three drunken men came over from St.Helen's Island and incited six or eight others to assail the parity in the manner that citizens of Montreal are so familiar with through newspaper articles of late.The evangelists had to beat a retreat under the halïf-hearted \u2018protec- ton\u2019 of a few policemen.In a few weeks they were molested again.They managed to carry on the meeting in spite of the substantial protests of the mob, in the shape of corn cobs, tomatoes, etc., until a big man.who pretended to be a policeman, appeared and ordered the meeting Lo AISperse.na.Allan, thinking at the time that the man was what he reprasented himself, ceased speaking.Again, when two ladies were among the occupants of the locomotory pulpit, the waggon was assailed by half a dozen roughs, who removed the horse from it, cutting one of the traces.One of Mr.Allan's party struck with the whip the man who cut the trace.This is the only instance of resistance on the part of the band.A riot, which was fully reported in the \u2018Witness.\u2019 occurred on Sunday, Aug.26.After being driven from the beat of a policeman, whose number Mr.Allan took, and forbidden ever again to enter it, the evangelists were set on by roughs.Some policemen interposed, but made no arrests.These atrocious manifestations of malignity culminated in the inter-' ference of a week ago Sunday.The crowd about the waggon numbered eight hundred or a thousand persons.A fraction only of these, perhaps forty or fifty, participated in the actual disturbance at first, but they were encouraged by the preseûce and the sympathy of the others.Sa- lcon-keepers, it is said, were the instigators.The upshot was that three or four hundred people followed the waggon with hoots and missiles from St.Paul street to McGill street.Several of the same persons reappear in every riot.The rowdies who disturb Mr.Allan are not distinctively French, although the French element predominate.Yesterday the occurrence, which has been a disgrace to Montreal, was repeated.It is the same story over again.differing slightly in details.Mr.Allan was preaching at Bonse- ccurs market to an attentive audience.It has been said that the meetings distur, the services in the Roman Catholic churches.But yesterday the meeting was a good distance from Bonsecours Church, and it wis held at an hour when those services are over, About twelve o'clock scme thirty or forty persons in Mr.Allan's audience proved refractory, and aroused many more.The usual missiles were thrown and a few stones.And new, for the first time, Mr.Allan had police protection werth speaking of.Two constables came to his side and saw him safely escorted to the City Hall, where he secured two more.The mob, which had followed them up, retreated before them.Two other policemen joined the four, and one ruffian, well was | known to the missionaries, chased into a dive on St.Paul street, Mr.Allan interposed for him, and he was not arrested.Mr.Allan is satisfied that he will be likely to receive police protection in future.After the disturbance of Aug.26, as our readers remember, Mr.Allan visited Chief Hughes and requested his protection.Chief The spectators : Hughes received him and his petition roughly.He then went to Ald.Penny, who told him to state his complaint in a letter.This he did, and Ald.Penny read the letter in Council.The matter was to be attended

Mr.Ames's statement about the rabbits on the farms would be correct if he had said hares, instead of rabbits.Rabbits are (as \u2018Albion\u2019 says) vermin; but Lares are game and must not be killed by a farmer on his own land\u2014a sequence of the land laws.May I add, as one who has tried to keep in touch with politics in the old country, that Mr.Ames seems to have got a very good Insight into the political status over there and will, without doubt, be all the more valuable to the country where he has already made his mark.ENGLISHMAN.[> PERSONAL.Tuftts, B.A., of Hawkes- paid a visit to the \u2018 Witness \u2019 Brooklyn, Sept.\u2018 Witness.\") The Rev.W.bury, Ont., office to-day.Messrs.Richard A.Ahearn, Inspector, of Boston, Mass.;

better than anyone can tell me.\u2018How is that ?\u2018Well, I have studied medicine.\u2019 \u2018Indeed! Have you studied it much 7 \u2018Much ?Well, I have passed examinations in it.These boots, you see, sir, are not overgood for a man with a cough like mine.\u2018No, indeed,\u2019 and the Superintendent of the Medland Hall Free Shelter surveyed the broken and dilapidated boots critically.He had seen many very old boots in his time, and these, we take it, were as disreputable as most.\u2018Now, I should say,\u2019 he continued, \u2018that a hot foot bath would not come amiss to you, eh ! while we see if we can find a pair of boots to match these in gize.\u2019 \u2018No, indeed, thank you very much, sir.\u2019 Most of the night's inhabitants of the Free Shelter had now departed, and the applicant for the boots could talk pretty freely without being heard by the others.The Superintendent had noticed that he had come to seek shelter for several nfghts past, and the marks of refinement and the manner that told of the true gentleman lingered about him yet, and marked him off from most of the usual occupants of the hall.\u2018As you know something about medicine, what remedy do you suggest ?We will try and get it for sou\u201d The broken gentleman looked up for a moment surprised.\u2018Oh, thank you very much, indeed, sir.I will write a prescription, if you would be so kind as to get it made up.\u2019 \u2018A prescription, eh ?\u201d And watching the man write down a formula for the medicine in the usual caba- listic Latin characters, he added, \u2018Why, you are quite a doctor V The man smiled\u2014a wan and feeble smile, and answered, \u2018If diplomas can make me a doctor, I am one indeed.\u2019 The Superintendent scrutinized his face more keenly than ever, as he tried on a pair or two of boots, and noted that there were no traces of drunken debauchery on his features.his face, neither drink nor any other gross vice had contributed to his downfall.But it was the face of a man who had suffered greatly, and exposure to the inclemency of the weather had made its mark.\u2018There! I think that pair will do,\u2019 he said, presently, looking at the new boots, which he had drawn on, and which seemed to fit him very well.\u2018I suppose,\u2019 he added, doubtfully, \u2018you have not any odd jobs of work you could give me, or even any wood- chopping.\u2019 \u2018Well, you seem hardly suited for chopping wood, do you \u201d said the Superintendent, \u2018and we have so many applicants.Still, we will see what we can do for a day or so.But how is it that you have come down to this position ?\u2019 The man looked thoughtfully at his new boots ; then lifted his head and gazed round the empty hall.Finally he brought his face round to view his Questioner, and there was a some- What weak and irresolute look upon It as he answered, \u2018Really, I hardly know.Some people have said very Severe things about me, that I was reckless and extravagant and spent ny money too freely.But I never pèbh to excess and I never gam- \u2018Then you had money,\u2019 said the Su- rerintendent.Well, I earned it.I had a good bractice {in the Midlands,\u201d said the ar sadly, but with yet a touch of Pride in his tone.\u2018What town ?'

roast beef and potatoes, six cents; turnips, two cends; tomatoes, iwo cents; tapioca pudding, three cents; stewed pears, three cents; grapes, three cents; bread and butter, two cents (two slices for thre cents);

Spencer on the other hand became acutely sensitive to the facts of life about him.\u2018Mill was taught to look upon all the problems of social and political sclence as capable of rapid and entire resettlement, while Spencer early learned to ronsider every possible question on every possible subject as open to frosh examination and a totally new answer.\u2019 Mill's father seemed almost to defy nature in planning the education of his son, while Spemcer\u2019s father aimed rather to be nature's assistant.Mill in youth hardly felt the contact of any other mind except that of his father, but Spencer was subjected to the vigorous influence of his uncle.the Rev.Thomas Spencer, a Radical clergyman in a Tory chureli, a teetotzaller whan tippling was universal, a Chartist when Chartism seemed the sum of all iniquities, a picneer in the anti- \u2018corn agitation, and an urgent reformer in all that concerend the physical.moral and soclal welfare cf the people.Fresh from the teaching of such a man, it is not to be wondered at that Spencer's earliest ventures as an author were directed at political and social questions.HERBERT SPENCER.The lack of the traditional university training in Mr.Spencer's case has been the subject of much debate.Mr.Spencer\u2019s dislilte, often expressed, of the classical curriculum has given this university digpute more prominence than it deserves.It is possible that if he had gone to Cambridge and had found it as antique, aristocratic, exclusive and conservatively humanistic as it is said tO have been half a century ago, he might with all these darwbacks have found university life more suggestive than he anticipated.It certainly could not have modified seriously the bent of a mind so decided as his.It might even have hastened his development.No university could have prevented him from working out his synthetic scheme of philosophy.That passionate love of ordar which is the incoherent homogeneity at the boltom of the coherent heterogeneity of his writings, would have been lessened.In \u2018Social Statics,\u2019one of Mr.Spencer\u2019s early books, there are many turns cf thought and expression which connect the author's later thinking with the telealogy of the eighteenth century.In that book Mr.Spencer's theory of progress was intimately associated with the metaphysical conception of a preordained order in the universe.In his system as finally matured this preordained order has no place; but it remains in his youthful work to show that his Synthetic System is not an (solated phencmenon in the history of philosophy, but that it has some roots in the past.University training would probably have made him more clearly conscious of his relation to the past than he or his partisans seem to be.Formally the carly writing of Mr.Spencer are in contradiction with his more mature thought, but historically they are not.They record the steps of his progress toward the goal which he was seeking.It ig a curious fact that he should have wished to supress his work on \u2018Social S:atics,\u201d [t would seem to indicate that the apostle of evolution would have been glad to prevent the application of his favorite principle to the study of his own career.Without the preliminary essays, the synthetic philosophy would seem to be related only to contemporary selence; but with them it can be viewed in a long perspective.This fact has an Important bearing on the controversy respecting the relations of Spencer to Comte.It is true enough that every trace of Cemtism has been removed from Mr.Spencer's system, and yet it may fairly be doubted whether that system would have been perfected without the stimulus which Comte gave to hte thought of the generation that followed him.Here, it may be imagined, lies the truth between Mr.Spencer and his disciples on one side, and the adverse critics on the other.If anything were needed to prove the historical affinity be-J tween Comtism and Spenceorianism, it could be found in the religious aspects of the Spencerian philosophy.Whether Mr.Spencer meant it so or not, he can be looked on as the founder of a religion.The worship to wbich his theory of the universe leads is as far as pcesible from that of deified humanity which Comte proposed.Stating the matter broadly, and regarding only its negative aspect, the Spencerian doctrine cuts the ground directly from beneath all forms of anthro- Mr.Svencer\u2019s pers st- tent use of the word/\u2018unknowable', has enabled adverse critics to assume that Mr.Spencer's doctrine of the atsolnte is a vacuum\u2014a mere negation of thought.So far from this heing the rase, it is claimed that for the Spencerlan.the truth.that hohind all we know and ean know, eluding thought and transcending imagination, there is the one Eternal Reality.is the corner-stone of all our knowledge-the one fact that can never be either analyze l or got rid of.And here we may natice how in thls firal datum of conscionaness religion and science find their complete and permanent.reconciliation.For the supreme and everlasting power which re- | Hgion calle God is the eternal and inseru- table energy which science finds at the back of its widest gen.ralizations and beneath its deepest investimations.All science leads at last io the mystery with which religion becins Aro Mr.Fæencer's socioiogy and ethics an integral part of his system\u201d The opinion is widely diffused even among whe most loval adnerenis of Mr.Spencer, that his social doctrines, espousrd Jong before the working out of his general system, formed no proper part of it.Mr.Spencer himself has acknowledged in the preface to his most recent volume that he found a difficulty in applying his evolutionary formula to the complications of human Hfe.Tho experiment was certainly a dar- Are one ans its success is still dubious.\u2014 CABLE NOTES.The Admiralty office has received ad- vices stating that the British warship \u2018Ringarcoma\u2019, which recently went ashore on a reef off the New Hebrides, has heen f'fcated and arrived at Port Sandwich, ci Aug.12.The (Czar has sert an autograph letter to the Queen reinviting Her Maejsty to the wedding of the Crzarewitch and Princess AlIx, of Hesse, in which he urges that himself and his whole family are anxious for the presence of the Queen on that occasion.The Queen is desirous of going to St.Petersburg.and is taking the advice of ber ministers and physicians on the subject.The Paris \u2018Gaulois\u2019 says that on the occasion of the visit of the Due d'Aumale to Stowe House, after the funeral of the Count of Paris, the lue d'Orleans, burst- irg into tears said: \u2018Exile killed my father.I will endure anything rather than inaction.I wili risk my head to return to France,and if I am foriinate to reign, I Fill risk my head rather than be driven out.\u2019 - \u2014 CANADA AND WATER WAYS.The \u2018Inter-Ocean \u2019 is in receipt of an invitation fron the deep waier-ways com- mitteo of the city of Toronto to attend a ecnvention to be held in that city from Sept.17 to 20.The subjects of the convention's deliberatien will he the best me- thoïds and routes for the construction of water-ways that will connect the ports of the great lakes with the ocean, making them the harbors for the world's commerce, instead ¢f ports of interstate or of merely continental trade.The subject is so important to the North-West, and so supremely important to Chicago, that it is with astonishment that we learn that a similar invitation addressed to the Chicago Board of Trade some time ago had not been responded to as late as Aug.20.Surely this great commercial organization will not let Chicago go without representation in so important a convention.The Dominion has been more prudent and more zealous than the Republic in the matter of facilitating the passage of heavy draught vessels from the head of the lakes to the mouth cf the St.Lawrence.It is to be hoped that a like condition is not to Le perpetual.Given a canal with twenty feet of channel and there will be a cheapening of coal to the consumer, concurrently, perhaps with an increase of price to the miner, certainly without a decrease of price at the pit's mouth The same is true as to lumber and grain; it is freight that counts.it is quite possible :c have grain selling at two cents less in Chicago and fer two cents more on the farm if the freight from farm to final market bo reduced by five cents An eminent financier of the Dominion has estimated that a really deep water-way would so cheapen freight rates as to add $120 a year to_the value of the crops of a 160- acre farm in the North-West.The United States Interstate Commerce Commission puts the cost of railway freight at nine and a quarter mills per ton per mile; compared with the freights of a quarter of a century ago this is a miracle of cheapness, and absolutely is a lower average rate than obtains in Europe.But it is a miracle of dearness when compared to cne and a third mills per ton, which was the average rate of lake freight in 1890.The Toronto convention is too important to be overlooked by Chicago.\u2014Chicago * Inter-Ocean.\u2019 NORTH WALES.A HOLIDAY AMONG ITS MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS.of Witness.\" Londcn, Aug.14.\u2014Since writing from Pezmaenmaur, I have spent a couple cf pleasant weeks exploring nearly the whole coast of North Wales.Rich in interest and wonderfully wealthy in beauty, is this famous district.In some respects the country has scen, and is seeing, very great changes: while in others it has varied little in the course of many ages.The \u2018perpetual hills\u2019 smile or frown upon the modern tourist as they did upon the banners of the \u2018ruthlosa king.\u201d or upon the legions of old Rome.And, vet, even these \u2018EVERLASTING MOUNTAING must be ever (if ever so s«light!y) changing their shape.Born of the great earth furnace and its explosions, the granite rocks stand up sharply from their brethren the slates and the sandstones, the offspring of the sediments of ancient seas, So massive are they, and so grand in their proportions, that the epithet \u2018everlasting,\u2019 seems appropriate.Yet.nature and man are hard at werk to pull dhe hills down to the level of the plain.If one climbs a mountain ledge which was cleanly hewn on the face of some giant rock less than ten years ago, it is found strewn with tons of falien debris from the heights above.Rain and frost are the great levellers of the hills.And where man finds metal more attractive, and begins to mine and quarry, and tear out the bowels of the hiils Special Correspondence lé 1 i enon Cy +0 qui FR Bone \u20ac ne 1° \u201cravie rapt on he js helping her own wary, Chile.The dorses the cloud-cappen | ove ane jngaln.Meanwhil tof some few mil.|veller may \"majesty of the loveliness of :} \u201cthat lie betve vision of ot are hills, THERE cand that wire hard and barr.their detritue from their sdes, : fnul.Jt+ is +1 at:ractiveness \u201c} rememisær.in mountain contrusted.I tried hy sana antl \u201c4 a longer vonng, I it but a very heats of the puree «limb no higher ;
