and the time is not far distant when many Ca-\" nadians may be glad to aid in the development of the vast resources of that great country\u2014sufficient to employ the labors of its millions were the capital but provided.However, for the present a little more encouragement for those here to become \u2018settlers\u2019 would not be amiss.Discrimination against the Chinese is naturally unpleasant to them ; but they are producers in various way, and our acceptance of them upon registration ought to ensure them fair play, which is not the case in our city at the present time.They have to date paid into the Ottawa treasury over $800,000 since the capitation tax was imposed in 1886, while according to the report up to June, 1895, 7,237 of these had taken out certificates of leave of the 15,000 or so that had come in.It will also be remembered that this immigration is from a British port, Hong Kong, and under the British flag, without any responsibility on China's part.\u2018 PHILOCHINESIS.\u2019 Oct.19, 1896.ps OTTAWA, THE WASHINGTON OF THE NORTH.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir,\u2014The proposal may be examined with profit.Though not a politician of the \u2018looking to Washington\u2019 type, yet a glance in that direction may not be unprofitable.In your editorial of Oct.17 you state a fact of importance in the following words: \u2018Among other reasons for preferring it (Montreal) to Ottawa was the fact that in a small place the atmosphere is created by the government, and statesmen are out of touch with the people.\u2019 To any observant man fortunate enough to live butside of Ottawa the statement of your editorial is corroborated by his experience for years past.The opinion to a resident of Ottawa was not to be questioned that all political questions must be decided in the interests of the Capital.The country existed for the city of Ottawa and nothing less than a probability that a certain course would lead to a change in the government was worthy their notice.But this they came at last to regard as an impossible contingency.Now the political atmosphere has been disturbed and we trust that in time it will be purified, but we do not wish the creation of the sa conditions under the new gavern- ment.Ottawa wishes to be the \u2018Washington of the north.\u2019 Washingipn is a beautiful city and a beautifully kept city, and nature has provided that Ottawa may in time be a beautiful city,-too.But many thousands oi dollars must be expendeu before this can be realized.Should the taxpayers of Ottawa, already burdened, be crushed under the additional taxes necessary to accomplish the commendable effort to make our Capital city in some sense worthy of the distinction she now bears in name as the Capital of our magnificent country ?I think not; and believe that the.sense of justice pervading Canadians will sustain me in this opinion.How is it done in Washington ?When a million dollars are needed for city improvements the Federal Government pays one-haif and the District of Columbia, including Washington, the other.But another condition is annexed which is of great good to the country at large and that is this, the people in the district and city can- not excrcise the federal franchise.This ! .le 2 oy BAe EE fo By So SB Bp TR san mc» i Sa aA La EE ldo y, Û y) FA ii rey Werte the fight before Berj! found that his troops were making but an indifferent stand before the trained Egyptian forces under their British leaders.In order to inspire them with courage he rode by himself straight at a regiment of Egyptian cavalry composed of Soudanese, who.are the finest fighters in the Egyptian army.The troopers, nothing loth, rode out from thPir ranks to meet him singly.The accompanying cut is taken from \u2018Black and White\u2019 from a sketch fur- nisbed by their special artist in the Soudan, Mr.Charles M.Sheldon.etre NOTES AND NOTICES.New York trains, via Adirondack Mountains, leave Windsor street depot at 8.15 a.m., daily, except Sunday, and 4.26 p.m.daily.Returning, leave New York 8.30 a.m.(Empire State Express) daily, except Sunday, and 6 p.m.daily.Dinner in dining car on six o\u2019clock train: Rooms and Board.TO LET, A NICE FRONT ROOM, WELL furnished, hot and cold water, bath, etc.Apply at 80a Bleury street.24 ROOMS, TWO NICELY FURNISHED rooms, double and single, with board;

on the contrary, they kneel down themselves ana say their own prayers.\u2019 The brave :nstinet of {he confessing Christian heart was better than the politic and smothering compromise of the chaplain-general of ine forces.The confession accomplished what the had forever pouuc compromise missed.\u2014Wayland Hoyt.ADVERTISEMENTS: \u2014 Ë PILLS?WHAT PILLS?Ayer\u2019s Pills THEY CURE HEADACHE, DYSPEPSIA, \u201c BILIOUSNESS, INDICESTION, CONSTIPATION, OF COURSE.THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.3 EE * 9 pha \u20ac DAILY FOOD.SATURDAY, OCT.24.And Ahab called Obadiah, the governor of his house.Nôw Obadiah feared the Lord greatly \u2014AI! the saints salute thee, chiefly they that are of Caesar's household.\u20141 Kings xviii., 3;

and if it could only be brought home to her, it is one of the least hopeful signs that her supremacy will be of long duration.She is a human orchid, who requires an artificial atmosphere in which to bloom.Hence money, and plenty of it, is essential to her existence.In an indirect way, therefore, she is responsible for the trusts and rings, and other repulsive features of the race for fortune in every state of the union.Nor is extravagance confined to the rich.It is as general among all classes as gambling.Sometimes it gives rise to amusing incidents.Some young western farmers in Now York were once asked by a smart reporter why they -had come to Castle Garden in -search of wives.\u2018If we married an American.girl,\u201d answered one of] them, \u201cwe should have to employ a.foreign woman to take care of her,\u201d Ne = Fe So the indictment proceeds till it ends in the following: \u2014 \u2018It is in social intercourse that the American woman 18 seen at her best, and, it may be added, at her worst.In a country where the political fleld is largely occupied by the \u2018\u2018boss\u2019\u2019 and the Irish agitator, and the importance of the army, navy, and civil service dwarfed by the pretensions: of the millionnaire, it is the only outlet for her ambition outside of thè literary and artistic arena.That it is so regarded by the great mass of the people is proved by the nature of the American girl\u2019s education.She must be amusing at all costs.She must be a past-master in the mysteries of raillery, too often at the expense of earnestness and sweetnass.She must never be at -a loss for a reply;

and, besides, being noted as a steady workman, whese veracity is unquestioned.It is a well-known fact here that Mr.Wal- dren had to quit work in January, 1896, on account of a severe attack of sciatica, and for eleven weeks was unable to do a tap.Knowing that he was again at work, a \u2018 Mercury ' reporter called at his residence one evening to learn the exact facts of the case.Mr.Waldren, when spoken to on the subject, replied quite freely, and had no hesitation in crediting Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills with his remarkable recovery.\u2018I am not one of those people who are seeking newspaper notoriety,\u201d said Mr.Waldren, \u2018neither have I been snatched from death\u2019s door, but from the day when I quit work, until March 30, when I started again, I was confined to the house with sciatica.It located in my hip and would shoot down my leg to my foot, and was very painful.I could not move about the house without the aid of a cane, and then only with great pain.I was totaily useless as far as doing my work was coricerned, was never free from pain, and it made me feel very much depressed, for beyond that I felt strong and anxious to be about.1 am a member of three benefit societÿes, from which I drew pay, viz:\u2014The Three Links, the Iron Moulders\u2019 Associafion recommended a sure cure.I didn\u2019t try half of them.It was not possible, but I tried a great many\u2014particularly remedies that I had been in the habit of using for lumbago\u2014but I found no relief.I tried Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills.After using two boxes, I noticed an improvement, and I kept on using them.When I had used six boxes I was back at work again.I kept on until I had finished the eighth box, and I never felt better in my life.\u2019 \u2018Have you noticed any recurrence of trouble since?\u2019 queried the reporter.\u2018I have not,\u201d he replied, \u2018suffered a single twinge since.\u201d Mr.Waldren has worked in all the moulding shops in the city, and was never in his life laid off sick as long as he wag free from the attack of sciatica.He hardly knew what it was to be sick, and is of that tough, wiry nature that he can stand much greater physical strain than most people would imagine.Almost any person in the city can verify his story.Mr.Waldren said, as the reporter got up to leave, \u2018I only hope some poor fellow who has suffered as I did, may notice my case and get relief as I did.\u2019 Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills create new blood, build up the nerves, and thus drive disease from the system.In -hundreds of cases they have cured after all other medicines had failed, thus establishing the claim that they are a marvel -among the triumphs of modern medical science.The genuine Pink Pills are sold only in boxes, bearing the full trade mark, \u2018 Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills for Pale People.\u2019 Protect yourself from imposition by refusing any pill that does not bear the registered trade mark around the box.24 to surpass the achievements of Lady Derby, or Blanche, Lady Arundel.But the worst that can be sald of her in her social character is \u2018her tendency to ostentation and extravagance.She is al- 80 too fond of making paltry class distinctions and of giving dress the importance of birth in Europe.She would do well to lay to heart the pregnant remarks of an eminent American on literature in his own zountry.\u2018\u201c@Ve have need of a more vigorous and scholastic rule, such an asceticism as only the hardihood and devotion of the scholar himself can enforce.We live in the sun and on the surface\u2014a thin, plausible, superficial existence\u2014and talk of muse and prophet, of art and creation.But out of our shallow and frivolous way of life can greatness ever grow ?\u201d\u2019\u201d : All \u2018this strikes' us as absurdly overdone, and not a little spiteful and {ll- natured.The truth is, the American woman is to a great extent a myth\u2014a creature of \u2018newspaper paragréphs and gossip.As a matter of fact, the women of ninety-nine American families in a hundred are exceedingly hard-worked, careful women, and if their mên-folk err it is not in treating them like idols, but in, letting them get careworn and overworked.The expense and difficulty] of getting.servants is by itself enough to coitradict the pampered-idler theory.As for the women of the rich and \u2018refined classes, they are like rich women elsewhere\u2014occasionally very idle, luxut- ious and extravagant, and also occasionally very simple and austere in their lives.These attacks on American women as a whole are as senseless and as tasteless as the equally silly attacks on the ordeal of Ann Askew, or enable her } VA he dd ERAS Ss + cd Bo To Br Nol 7 0 00R 00 | adi à ta.Pp \u2018 à Vs.LR 2 a Bd Au : ;

mained lukewarm in their support; while.the Radicals, who declared from the outset their distrust of him, subjected him | gradually to increasing attacks, and did: not dissemble their determination to oust him from the leadership.Finally, Mr.| John Morley, originally one of his most: zealous supporters, made his leanings to-' wards Sir W.Harcourt clear, by avoiding ail reference to his nominal chief during his election four months ago to his pre-, sent seat.Even if Lord Rosebery were! not as sensitive as he is known to be, of | a due show of loyalty on the part of his] following, no one could longer entertain doubt as to the entire absence of ex-| plicit support.\u2019 But the crowning indigni- pw ty came when in his two recent speeches Sir WilHam Harcourt ostentatiously passed over the very name of Lord Rosebery; while in his Armenian speech he formulated, as an authoritative declaration of the Liberal party, a proposal for the denunciation of the Cyprus Convention.Now, Lord Rosebery, the titular leader of the party and late Foreign Secretary, was not so much as apprised of this intention.He was kept equally in the dark as to the course which Mr.Gladstone meant to follow in his great speech at Liverpool, where Lord Rosebery was conspicuously absent both in person and in name.Wounds which have been left to work themselves deep are not healed by temporizing.It is puerile to blink the fact that the Liberal party ig irremediably shattered.that turn in the party history of this country which has been long foreseen.A far-reaching change has been going o for some- time 5 wur jme i 2 .& party ceased before it.Individual erals may linger on, much as there are fossilized Tories still to be met with at rare intervals.But the political cleavage will be in future between Radicals and Conservatives.The withdrawal of Lord Rosebery completes the break-up of the Liboral party begun by Mr.Gladstone\u2019s Home Rule bill.Another great defection from its ranks is about to take placs.The magietic personality of Lord Rosebery, his ability, his social power, his wealth, exert a strong hold on many Liberals who will resent the triumph of In Liberal Scotland ez- pecially his influence is paramount.Unless, therefore, either Lord Rosebery withdraws his resignation, or .his opponents surrender unconditionally\u2014both highly improbable contingencies\u2014the second disintegration of the Liberal party will be final and permanent.It is exactly what the Radicals desire; they also wish to \u2018clear the air.\u2019 It is already announced from Constantinople that the Sultan is in raptures over the division in the camp of his arch enemies the Liberals.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE CANTEEN MUST GO.(Fredericton \u2018Reporter,\u2019 Oct.16.) For years the temperance people in this community have been pointing to \u2018the disgrace of the liquor selling in the canteen, apparently sanctioned by law, and an open temptation to the young men who attended the school.The matter was brought up in parliament when the Conservatives were in power but the rum interest prevailed and the -canteen went on with its damnable work.We notice that since they have got out of power, many Conservative members, and about the whole Conservative press, called loudly for the abolition of the Commons\u2019 bar, and after this was done away with, an attack was made on the Senate bar.Strange how assiduous these quondam temperance men have become since June 23.Possibly some of those who could see no harm in the canteen \u2018when their party was in power, may change their opinion, now that it is enjoying the cold shades of opposition.A year or so ago this matter of the canteen came up in parliament and the way it\" was affecting the corps was discussed.Mr.Gilmour of Charlotte County, was the gentleman who drew the attention of the government to communications in the government press regarding the debauchery ef the young men that attended the school, which resulted from this cause.But nothing was done.The department of militia was presided over by one who had no sympathy for the temperance cause; an examination was held which was slurred over as can be so easily done, when a source of rev- | enue is being considered, and we doubt if a report was ever presented.whole thing is a fraud.The It is a disgrace ahd shame to Conservatives that the party allowed rum selling in the canteen.We hope the Liberals will clear it out with the other abuses that they allege have crept into the government management.The evil of rum selling in the canteen is not a new thing by any mecns.few years ago, a most heartrending case came before the editor of this paper, and which he brought before the atten-|- tion of the authorities, but Hke-so many instances, no attention was paid to it ry - The present situation marks | A and the evil has continued, though possibly of late, not to such an extent as formerly.The case referred to was on the returning home of the short term men.The writer happened to be going to St.John, when a number who were going to their homes in Nova Scotia went Through by train.The men were simply paralyzed with drink.They made no bones of the fact that they got it at the canteen, and produced bottles, repeatedly drinking openly in the cars.In fact they made so much disturbance with blasphemy and obscene language that the conductor threatened to stop the train and have them removed.And we ascertained from a lieutenant who was returning home, that some of these men were from Christian homes in Nova Sco- tia, who had learned to drink at the sR.R.C.I.canteen.What their parents would think of the system of military instruction that would return thelr sons to them\u2019 in such :condition we leave it bE MT RE eet.ti unm orl ry g cher a :.no JONES in the school, and no amount of sophistry can cover up the fact that liquor\u2014 liquor we are creditably informed obtained at the canteen\u2014was the cause.Qne of the brightest and smartest young men of the school\u2014a resident of Nova Scotia by the way\u2014crazed by ' liquor, committed suicide.The details are most horrifying.Yet right here under the commandani\u2019s own eyes the system which robs from the drinkers to help pay for sustaining the \u2018library\u2019 of the school is the direct cause of the untimely end of one of Canada's citizens.A jury may pass all kinds of platitudes and find causes for regret in a death caused by momentary insanity, but someone is responsible under heaven for the death of this young man.We hear some of our valiant militia talk of loyalty to the Queen, love of their country, and the\u201d patriotic feelings that inspire them, but the patriotism that will condone and carry on a business that debauches the youwg men, that sends them home drunk to their parents, that makes them insane so that they commit suicide, is patriotism that is veneer.It is worse, -it is rotten.It deserves nothing but contumely on the part of the public.The R.R.C.1.is not responsible for this state of things.We are credibly informed that the men would rather not have liquor sold at the canteen.It is because we have a high regard for the men and would like to see these temptations removed, these disgraces done away with, that we have repeatedly called upon the authorities to do away with it.A court of law, presided over by one who is most careful, and one who Has had an opportunity of thoroughly looking into the status eof canteens in Scott act counties, has declared the sale of liquors illegal.If it were not a source of revenue to some one, if some one did not make money out of it, long ago it .would have been wiped out.But so long | as the revenue from the cantéen and the officers\u2019 mess bar goes to pay some expenses that would otherwise have to come out of some of the pockets direct of those in official positions, there will con- ne to be drunkards made at the R.R.1.\"We confess with sorrow that we gave up, long, long ago, any hope of getting any redress from the Conservative Government when they were in power.Be it said to their shame, that those who were leading the party were by all odds better temperance men\u2014apparently more anxious for the \u2018moral\u2019 welfare of the country\u2014when in Opposition than when holding the reins of power.They were always too anxious to cater to the rum element in their midst, and they came into their reward.We peal to the Liberal Government, we appeal to all good Liberals to condone the of- \u2018fence against public morals no longer.Temperance people, not only in this community, but all over the Maritime Provinces will hear with genuine pleasure, thet the sale of liquors in the canteen has been abolished.SUCCESS OF CANADIANS IN CHICAGO Dr.Arthur D.Patton, who has just returned from Chicago, says that the \u2018lergest ward in 3Jcok County Hospital, in that city, is in charge

1896.\u2014The conditions under wkich the Canadian lobster industry are carried on demand the immediate attention of the people and government of Canada.Last year the Bowell Government was furnished with a detailed acocunt of the canneries\u2019 establishments of this coast, and the awful con- The anewer was received that the government was in possession of all the facts, but nothing has ever been done, and the insanitary condition of the factories continues.The government taxed the lobster fishermen ten dollars as a license and permit for fishing, but the factories, balonging to wealthy men, are untaxed, and apparently free from government regulation or inspection, and are in a state which calls for immediate reform.The packers who are mostly French girls and young women, are badly paid, poorly housed and are fed on salt beef and pork for the two months employed.English people are not employed and \u2018would not dream of coming down so low.\u201d The so-called \u2018factories\u2019 are mere weather shelters; they are dirty and abound with unmentionable insects.There is an attempt to partition the rooms for the sexes, but the shelters are so open in construction that the partitions are of little use.There are no sanitary arrangements, not even such provision as Moses declared nocessary in his desert- camp.The pay of the female packers is two and three dollars a week, including the \u2018salt-board.\u2019 The work done is, as any one might suppose, under such conditions, of the worst kind.There is not a firm either in London, New York, Boston or even Paris but has compldined of the dirty state of the \u2018packing\u2019 and thousands of ceses are yearly classed \u2018unsaleable\u2019 unless at very much reduced rates to those of the contracts, thus entailing heavy losses to al the countries concerned.Such a state of affairs would not be tolerated in Denmark, for that little country is too careful of its reputation for cleanliness and morality.The lobster merchants or dealers, or perhaps more correctly stating it, the capitalists, are directly responsible for these evils.The store system is in use.They furnish rgpe, very expensive (a protected manufacture) clothing, flour and salt meat, of course at enhanced rates, as it all passes through their hands, and at the end of the season many of these factory runners are in debt and their establishment mortgaged; some escape across the frontier, when they see it is hopeless to recover themselves.Some of the mortgages are made out at compound interest.The profits of these capitalists are enormous; I dare not mention them for fear of revealing my identity, and they live in mansions worthy of their profits, contrasting painfully with the people who live in homes, some -of them not even \u2018weather shelters.\u2019 And yet the toilers, l.e., the operatives, unlike workers in iron or wood, do not need to be skilled laborers, and as they carry on all the work without supervision, they ought to reap the principal profits; but, on the contrary, they are worse paid than any laborer met with in the Old Country.ist?To crown all, the governmént of 1895 did not tax the capitalist or lobster merchant, but put it on the chief operative or factory runner and fishermen.The capitalist bad in nearly all cases to pay the tax before the fishing permits were granted, and it was charged in the fisherman\u2019s account at the end of the season.\u2018To license tax, paid ten dollars.\u2019 The fact is, that not a fisherman or operative had ten dollars to his name.They are podr, especlally at spring time, when every one seems to be Hard up, both farmer and fisherman.Co \u2018 The trade is a lucrative one.There are people in England and elsewhere who Should this state of things ex- will have gcod lobsters at any price, and their money is sure, but I know that thousands of dollars are lost.every year to New Brunswick alone by bad canning, because of the causes I have mentioned.There should be a government inspection, and if it is necessary to protect the lobster so much as to restrict it being trapped for only two months of the year, it should be deemed quite as necessary to protect humanity from its own oppression, and indirectly, the consumers of this valued crustacean.But the restrictive regulations are a fraud and deception, for lobsters are caught, canned, poached and carted away while the guardians are snug in bed.[A A TAX LESSON FROM MONTREAL.(To the Editor of the N.Y.\u2018Evening Post.\u2019) Sir,\u2014The article in your issue of the 3rd inst.entitled \u2018 Discontented Taxpayers\u2019 shows that New York may learn something from Montreal with regard to methods of taxation.In this city there is no tax whatever on the whole &f a citizen's personal property; a few light taxes are levied on carriages and the like; real estate almost alone bears the cost of municipal government.The present rate is one percent and one-quarter more for school tax.Until about 1870 real estate here, especially if unimproved, was assessed at much less than its selling value, and there was a good deal of compiaint such as that voiced in your article.While one proprietor with a \u2018pull\u2019 was paying on one-third value, another proprietor was paying on two- thirds.Within the past ten years the expenditures of the city have increased enormously, chiefly for the widening of many streets and avenues bequeathed from the days when a thoroughfare of twenty or thirty feet was deemed ample.Under the necessity of laying their hands on every available dollar of revenue, the assessors have step by step brought their assessments to the full selling value of all realty; indeed, they have occasionally passed that limit, as testified by advertisements of real estate for sale below its assessed value.To-day, therefore, the old outcry against inequality of assessment has died out; if the assessors overvalue a property, they stand ready to rectify their error on adequate proof.In their aid these assessors enjoy access to the deeds of sale as registered; the figures therein recorded are transferred to their rolls and are indisputable.Still, as sales are few in comparison with leases, It would be well to require that leases be registered, as deeds of sale are now, and equally serve as a basis for assessment.If a proprietor owns one- thousandth part of the real estate in this city, or any other, he should pay .exactly one-thousandth part of the real- estate tax.To pay less is to shirk part of a just burden; to pay more is to carry \u2018part of some one else\u2019s load.A plan which might meet the acknowledged difficulties of justassessment would consist in requiring every owner to assess himself by formally declaring every year what he deems his real estate worth-\u2014 that sum to be a legal offer of sale to any one who within twelve months tenders the amount, plus, say, 10 percent in the case of leased property; plus, say, 20 or 30 percent in the case of property occupied by the owner, who might suffer special loss or hardship if dispossessed; plus nothing if the realty is unimproved.This method would overcome all existing obstacles in ascertaining full values, and smooth the way for clvic and other improvements.The enormous discrepancy between what a proprietor says his property is worth when he disputes a tax bill at the city hall, and what he claims when his real estate is wanted for a park, or sureet, or school, would disappear as if by magic.Had this plan been adopted in Montreal ten years ago, the city would have saved millions in the cost of opening new streets and widening old ônes A comparable sum would have been saved by the Canadian Pacific Railway in effecting its new en-\u2019 trance to the city, and in obtaining land for its new terminals.: GEORGE ILES.Montreal, October 10. 12 CPE FACTS AND FIGURES.How the City's- Money Has Been .Spent.REMARKABLE GROWTH OF THE INTEREST CHARGES.Now that the aldermen are again concocting schenies io prevail upon the Legislature to increase the city\u2019s borrow- irg power\u2014which means millions more to squander\u2014the following faets and figures, which show the rapid growth in our Interest charges, and a number of jobs upon which millions and millions were sunk, may be of some assistance in c:ermining the wisdom of allowing the request of the aldermen for more mil- ons.The bonded debt of the city runs back to 1843.That year by an act of Par- llament the city was authorized to issue bonds to the amount of $200,000 to purchase water works, which up to that date had been in the:hands of private persons.In 1851 amnGther loan of $200,000 was made to extend the old water works.Shortly after it was contended that the works were too small and that new works were needed; so a loan of $730,000 was effected.This was in 1852.Four years later a loan of $250,000 was made, while in the year 1861 a loan of $200,000 was effected.In 1865-66, $375,000 were borrowed.All these amounts were borrowed in order to still further increase the efficiency of the water works.Soon after the incorporation \u2018of the city the work of improving the streets was begun.The Road Committee spent $205,000 the first year, $60,000 during each of the next three years, and sums averaging from $10,000 to $40,000 annually during the next ten years.This expenditure was met partly out of revenue, but also partly by promissory notes, and tgm- porary loans.In 1852 this accumulated indebtedness, which amounted to $413,- 667, was consolidated.The same year the city obtained a loan of $800,000 from the government.The corporation then increased its expenditure on the roads to $129,464, Another consolidation was made in 1860, amounting to $486,000, and at the same time a special issue of bonds amounting to $48,400 was authorized to be spent on the Jnarkets, Bonsecours market had already been constructed at a cost of $200,000.During the next decade the city contributed $400,000 to the Grand Trunk; spent $400,000 for sewers; $114,000 for widening Notre Dame street, from Bon- secours to St.Sulpice, and $126,000 in acquiring the Hay Market and erecting the old Drill Hall Up to that time a special act of the Legislature was required each loan, and the objects towards which the proceeds were to be devoted were always defined.In 1868 the first issue of bonds became due, The aldermen then obtained an act and carrving the borrowing power to $5,- 000,000.This was increased in 1869 by a special act authorizing the city to borrow $350,000, to acquire Mount Royal Dark, and $500,000 to enlarge the water works.The great demand for work in 1874-75 led the city to undertake the construction of main sewers, and of new reservoirs on the mountain, etc.This ex- psnditure, coupled with a considerable sum spent on expropriations, caused a rapid increase in the debt.Under Mayor Abbott the terminable de- permanent stock and \u2018the sinking fund was abolished, which reduced the annual charge by over $200,000.in twenty-five years the value of all the than trebled and the annual expenditure has been guadrupled.The revenue has increased faster than the value of real estate, which only shows that the rate of taxation has been raised.In 1850, the revenue of the city was.$154,273; in 1860, $448,732; and in 1879, $805,656.The \u2018expénditure in the latter year was $723,809.In 1880, the revenue was $1,514,000, and the expenditure %1,502,000.In 1890, the figures were $2,240,000, and $2,351,374 respectively.The greatest increase in annual expenditure has beer within the last decade 1884-1894.It exceeds a million dollars.to authorize: consolidating the whole debt of the city: While

\u2018 what next?\u2019 And so the \u2018 Herald \u2019 was known for a while as the \u2018 Gallery.\u201d That journals war maps became afterwards a famous feature, and undoubtedly helped to establish the prestige of the paper.The day has long gone by when a political candidate can be elected without first -making the public acquainted with bis physiognomy, although the great enterprise and foresight of the elder Ingram has confined much of this to certain weekly papers in this country, rather than to spread it among the dailies, as is done on the other side of the Atlantic.A notable instance of a paper prejudiced against pictures being compalled \" EGYPTIAN PICTURE WRITING.to adopt them.is found in the files of the New York \u2018Sun.\u2019 Its first efforts in that direction were -unfortunate, and in 1880 destroyed every hepe of its candidate, Holoran, for the Presidency.It is safe to say no mewspaper cut ever attracted so much notoriety before or since, and after another attempt, this particular journal abandoned illustratien ror a veriod.to + When the New York \u2018 World\u2019 burst forth with pictures one Sunday morning in February, 1884, and ths thermometer of its circulation rose to such a height as to leave its contemporaries excesding- ly cold by comparison, \u2018 To THEY IN SELP-REFENCE \u2018proceeded to raise the mercury in their hprometers by improving the quality of \u201c| their reading matter, in the hope that, acéprding to meteorological law, \u2018a rising barbmeter produéés a fallin the *hermo- falister.\u2019 But\u2018inrwain\u2014the crusfde against rection of Charles Knight, the first num- SA\"URDAY, OCTOBER 21, 150g | the picture paper failed, and the \u2018Sun\u2019 resumed pictures, some of them very admirably executed.Then, a year cr two later, came the announcement that newspaper illustrating had had its day.and no more illustrations would appear in the \u2018Sun.\u2019 But the ¢ World\u2019 kept creeping up in circulation, and curiously enough, a fact already noted by many Americans, it stood at exactly what the London \u2018Daily Mail\u2019 averaged for the third and fourth months of iis new namely, 203,000 and 222,000 copies a day.When the \u2018World's\u2019 average reached ed to illustrations, and has often used, in its Sunday edition, as many as two hundred cuts.But two hundred pictures is nothing to what a New York paper can do, and has done.The New York \u2018 Journal \u2019 recently printed oter four hundred illustrations in a single issue, several of these being printed in color.Te show how general the custom is of employing youthful artists as editors and reporters, the doyen of New York illustrators, Mr.Walter McDougall, of the \u2018World,\u2019 is barely thirty-five.This paper alone has twenty- four artists on its staff.London newspapers are proverbially conservative.The \u2018 Daily Chronicle\u2019 as an illustrated journal has an existence to be RECKONED BY MONTHS.yet some of its drawings by Messrs.Pen- nell, Wirgman, Hartrick, and cthers, have been excellent.It was oniy the other day that the \u2018 Daily News broke away from its traditions by engaging the services of Mr.Harry Furniss.The evening and Sunday papers now illustrate more or less profusely, but chiefly in the direction of caricature.Regular topical illustration is left to the \u2018 Daily Graphic\u2019 and the weekly periodicals.As regards the way in which newspaper Illustration is done, it should be borne in mind that one artist cannot be expected to \u2018cover\u2019 every line of illustrating.He himself will no doubt allege that he can do it, but this is merely a pardonable egotism inherent in his artistic nature.Each artist has a talent in a certain line, and curiously enough this is the one he usually cares lcast to work in.The editor must find out which class of subjects an artist is best adapted for, and engage him for that only; because the artist who draws architecture or landscape well, will not retain the likeness if he attempts portraits.Herewith is an EXAMPLE OF A PORTLAIT of Mr.Chamberlain executed by an architectural artist.The mechanical draughtsman cannot master the mystery of a fashion plate, neither will a marine artist understand sufficiently the anatomy of a horse.The fact that an artist is a grcat painter will, MR.CHAMBERLAIN, (Drawn by an Architect.) as a rule, indicate that he is totally unfit for newspaper work.Newspaper illustration on both sides of the Atlantic, but especially in England, is in its veriest infancy.The day will no doubt come when the \u2018 Times and the \u2018 Standard,\u201d the \u2018 Morning Post\u2019 and the \u2018 Globe,\u2019 whether they resist the tendency or not, will appear daily with dozens of drawings.\u2014London \u2018Daily Mail.\u2019 mr CHATEAUGUAY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.A VERY SUCCESSFUL PLOUGHING MATCH, The Chateauguay Agricultural Spciety held a very successful ploughing match on Wednesday on the farm of Mr.James Mec- Gowan.The day was everything that could be desired.There was a fair crowd of spectdtors, including many ladies.Among others present were Messrs.W, Ewing and James Johnsen.The judges were Mr.G.Buchanan, Mr.Emile Delorme, Montreal;

yet neither of us could in long range shooting at live game, suc- cesafully compete with these men of stolid temperament and iron nerve, many of whom thought nothing of bringing down a small antelope at a distance of six hundred yards.No wonder, then, that they had, In the lately closed war, been so uniformly successful against well-disciplined European troops, comparatively few soldiers, in any regular army that I have ever | seen, being what I call good marksmen.On the sixth morning of our stay, Franz Wynkoop, Charlie Tryon and I.with three attendant Zulus, rode off to >.HUNTING AN ELEPHANT.All three of these men\u2014in addition to their mother tongue, Dutch\u2014spoke English fluently, and all instantly recognized and warmly greeted me.After manfully helping to make away with a prodigious supper, I said to our host :\u2014 \u2018Well, Hans, what's the prospect for sport ?Is game as plentiful as when I was here before ?\u2018\u2019There\u2019s no great falling off in buffalo, eland, springbok, gnu, and such like,\u201d he replied, \u2018but lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes and even ostriches, are getting rather scarce.\u2019 \u2018That's a pity,\u2019 observed Charlie Tryon, \u2018for there's nothing I'd like so much as to got a shot at an elephant and take home with me a pair of tusks of my own procuring.\u2019 The whole family seemed to have already taken a great fancy to my bright- faced young chum; and Kranz, the elder son, now said :\u2014 \u2018Perhaps you can do it, Mr.Tryon.\u2018After you've got tired bagging smaller game, I'll take you two to a tree jungle, about ten miles from here.I've heard that a solitary old tusker is hiding there and has lately played the mischief with the poor Kaffirs\u2019 cornfields.If we can find him, and if you then feel l'ke it and will shoot exacily as I or your friend tell you to do, you shall have the first crack at the beast.\u2019 \u2018All right,\u201d responded Charlie, \u2018I'll obey orders like a soldier and will try to keep my nerves steady, though I've read that these \u2018rogue\u2019 eléphants are mighty dangcrous brutes to tfickle.\u2019 \u2018 They often are,\u2019 rejoined Franz.\u2018Yet a single heavy bullet put in the right spot, will Jown the biggest of them ; and we'll take care you get a fair show.What loads do yout guns carry ?\u2018 Both our rifles are, as you see, 52.calibre breech-lcaders, and some of our shells are charged with eight drachms of Hartford powder behind one and a quarter ounce steel-pointed bullets,\u2019 I explained.\u2018The very thing for elephants, lions and buffalo.You couldn't have anything better,\u2019 approvingly remarked old Hacrs.We spent the first few days in bunt- i that part of the Bosch veld (bush country) previously referred to.On coming within a half mile of the particular tract in which the \u2018roguc\u2019 was supposed to be, we dismounted, left our horses in charge of the blacks and proceeded quietly on foot, Franz having meantime carefully coached onr inexperignced young friend how to act in any emergeney likely to arise.- For some little time we walked slowly along the\u2014to us\u2014impervious, matted growth of tree jungle, keeping -always forty or fifty yards from its\u2019-edge, and| keenly watching for any break that might indicate the passage of thé.huge brute we wished to interview.But nens such occurred, nor could we anywhere see elephant spoor until we had reached an outlying Kaffir cornfield.Here ,we came upon traces of the beast with a vengeance; for scarcely a stalk of corn was left standing, and gverywhere the rudely cultivated soll was marked by its footprints, as wide \u2018across as as half- bushel measure, \u2018I guess we've found the old fellow at Jast,\u2019 gleefully exclaimed Tryon.\u2018Not just yet, I'm afraid,\u2019 replied Franz.\u2018Likely as not he's miles away, being too cunning to stay long near a field he's destroyed.See, the tracks don't lead back to the : bush, but right cver the open veld.We'll have to do à little n:ore tramping.For a short distance we succeeded in merking the elephant\u2019s course, but soon lost all trace of it in the dry, elastic grass.Yet we went on, hoping to find scme spot where he had made an opening into the jungle for us, though we did not expect to find him nedr the entrance of such, for, as Wynkoop said, and 1 very well knew, the sagacious brute would probably make a great cireuit after seeking cover and return to the outer edge of some especially dense thicket, perhaps directly behind the ravaged ficld, whence; Himself absolutely motiénless and invisible, he might watch the neighboring plain.I have known a group of four full-grown élephants to remain for many hours so perfectly concealed that hunters repeatedly passed and repassed within ten feet of them before suspecting their propinquity.We had gone nearly a mile beyond the | rtined cornfield, carefully scanning the line of jungle, when Franz suddenly stopped, gazed intently for a moment, and \u2018then said: \u2018Be ready, men! If I'm not mightily mistaken, I caught the glint of an elephant\u2019's eye in that clump of mimosa and wait-a-bit thorn,\u2019 pointing to a patch of thicket that looked almost solid enough to defy penetration by anything larger than a mouse.As previously agreed upon, we now ranged ourselves a few feet apart, all facing the jungle, and Tryon occupying the post of honor in the centre.While we stood in an expectancy that might well have tried the nerves of a veteran hunter, Charlie quietly listened to and promised to obey the reiterated instructions of our guide, who was evidently astonished at .the boy\u2019s nonchalance.Indeed, watching him closely, I could not deteet the tremor of a muscle.The only signs of suppressed excitement were a slight paleness of face and a firm compression of his beardless lips, as he calmly said: : \u2018If there really is an elephant in there, I'm going.to shoot for the prize of my lite, and I'll win \u2018it, sure !\u2019 \u2018That\u2019s the pluckiest youngster I ever saw,\u2019 smilingly observed Franz.\u2018Do you have many like him ?Here he comes ! Steady now, boy\u2014steady !\u2019 Fer, with the curious instinet common to most wild creatures, the eJephant at once knew that he\u2019d been discovered; and, I suppose, gradually, working himself into a rage at the scent and sound of his plotting enemies, made up his mind to annihilate the puny things.At any rate, without the slightest warning, he charged furiously out on us, crushing down great saplinzs like s0 many reeds a8 he emerged from cover, and tearing his way through a network of cling vines, as might a strong bird through a spider\u2019s web.Not more than fifty yards of open ground lay between us and the thicket, and the stupendous brute\u2014an unusually large male\u2014presented a truly terrific sight, as, with upraised trunk and harsh, screîm-like trumpetings, be rushed on like a fiend-possessed mountain of flesh\u2019 and blood.But not one of us moved ! All stood, with rifles poised, as coolly get trap.I glanced at Tryon.The boy was actually smiling! I could not, repress a thrill of pride as I noted his resolute bearing.a trick,\u2019 I hurriedly said.where stood the undismayed, young student.But, exactly as foretold by Franz; when within ten yards; he lowered the shielding trunk and depressed his huge head for the final assault.Then, seeing the critical moment had come, the Boer softly said: \u2018Now\u2019s your time, boy!\u2019 Whereupon my gallant chum, far more steadily and quickly than if shooting in his home club, threw up his rifle, aimed point blank at the hollows of the enormous beast\u2019s forehead and touched the trigger, while we stood ready to supplement, if necessary, his fire by our own.But no second shot was needed.The heavy steel-pointed bullet, piercing the elephant\u2019s skull, tore its way clear through his brain, and the mighty creature, though already dead, was borne so far forward by his own momentum that he came crushing down so close to Charlie, that the boy had to spring aside to aveid belng crushed.Then, all need for repression being past, the young marksman gave free yent to his delight, laughing, shouting and hurrahing.A very excusable jubi- -lation,, for not one inexperienced hunter in ten thousand could have performed the feat of which he (and I for him) was so justly proud.' ) The Zulus had slowly followed us; and t now, hearing the firing, came up with the horses, when all hands went to work, of axes and a peculiar saw, brought along for the purpose, cut out the elephant\u2019s tusks.These splendid trophies, as we afterwards found, weighed one hundred and thirty-six pounds, and were worth on the coast at that time the equivalent of four hundred dollars of our money, though 1 presume their happy possessor would not have parted with them for twenty times that sum.Leaving the immense carcass to be disposed of by the great crowd of blacks, who, by some mysterious intuition, began\u2019 to flock to the feast from all sides, we lashed the tusks to two of the Zulus' horses and got safely home with them, drick Wynkoop, who both declared that they had never before known a mere boy, and a green hunter at that, to stand firm in the face of a charging elephant, much less.to kill the brute at his firet shot.| Indeed, their admiration of Charlie\u2019s prowess was so great that, though money- loving men, and by usage entitled to share in the proceeds of all our hunts, they joined with Franz and me in insisting that he, Charlie, should be sole owt- er of the-magnificent pieces of ivory, and must take them to America with him; as if waiting for the springing of a tar-| On and on, faster and faster, his smal; pig-like eyes glowing with- vengeful fires; qd came the enraged monster, stralght té.Leap and in the course of an hour, by the aid.to the great content of old Hans and Hen- PIII v his long vacation, while I stayed several more months in the Transvaal, enjoying such sport as could nowhere else be found, and finally, through the sale of ivory and rare pelts, clearing a quite considerable sum of money.| I have not seen my now old friend Try- on for more than twenty years, but have lately met one of his sons, who tells me that the tusks taken from his father\u2019s first and last elephant are still treasured by him as the most precious mementoes of his South African outing.\u2014N.Y.\u2018 Ledger.\u201d \u2018 _\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 [For the Boys\u2019 Page.CANADA.Talk not to me of the old world\u2019s name, In history\u2019s royal page; Tis dark with her deeds of blood and shame .That frown from each rolling age.Her kingdoms to-day Own the tyrant\u2019s sway; Men quake at a despot\u2019s nod; Freedom's a name, but a name alone, Thousands in death on the hills are strewn, For putting their trust in God.° But here, where the glad, free breezes blow, \u201c> Where Canada\u2019s banner waves, No sign is seen of that pomp and woe, Where thrones are guarded by slaves.Here no tyrant reigns In his gilded chains, Nor fettered is thought and word; But from the plains where the strong 7 secythe swings, Down to the coasts where the sea-surge sings, .Sweet liberty\u2019s strain is heard.From Canada\u2019s soil her yeomen win A life that is free and bold; Her tolling sons in the city\u2019s din With their sweat, earn honest gold; The flsherman\u2019s barque, When the day grows dark, Comes back with the ocean spoil\u2014 Over our Canada\u2019s happy land, Labor and plenty walk hand in hand, And contentment reigns with toil.The miner\u2019s pick rings out in the west; Her ships plough the distant sea; For her sons are strong and brave as the best, And men wherever they be\u2014 Onäocean or land, In the forests grand, Or down in the darksome mine, \u2018It\u2019s all right, Charlie.You'll do th$!

institutions, who was at one time a storeman.Do you think any business man in the city thinks one whit the less of him for it ?Not at all.Yet how would the society ladies of Montreal look on a woman who ha® done something similar?Suppose you yourself with all your present education, should go into domestic service.No matter how well you would do it you would at once be snubbed by those you now count your friends.You would even cease to be called Miss A., and in six months\u2019 time you would be chiefly known and spoken about as Mrs.So-and-so\u2019s servant.And no matter how your circumstances should improve, even if you lived to be as old as Methuselah, it would be held against you and you would never have the entrée of the same set again.I knew a man a few years ago in a leading Canadian city, who married the woman who had been his housekeeper.Instantly they were dropped by almost every one in the church, and they finally left the city for no other reason I firmly believe than to get rid of the odium- cast upon him and his wife and start again where they were not known.The ladies of that church had been quite willing to receive that woman among them, as Mr.B\u2014's housckeeper, but as his wife \u2014as their social equal?No.And for no other reason than that she had been his housekeeper.\u2019 \u2018Oh, I really do not think it is as bad as that,\u2019 the lady protested.I was talking with a friend the other day on this subject.She sald she was quite willing to call a girl Miss So-and-so if she could only get one who would do the work she needed, and I am sure I should.\u2019 \u2018That is all very well.A few of you will maybe, but you do not represent the great body.Now there is my wife, and I consider her infinitely better than the most.Yet sometimes I find even her saying, \u2018Oh, she is only a servant!\u201d I tell you a girl will work long hours in a factory and half starve on her pittance of wages before she will put herself in such a position.\u2019 \u2018But you men cannot free yourselves from all blame,\u2019 the lady protested.\u2018How many of the young men in your employ, for instance, would be willing to call upon a girl who helps me do my housework?Yet he would have no such scruples about a girl who stands behind the counter of a dry goods store.\u2019 : \u2018Ah, but why?Don\u2019t you know that it he did do so in nine cuses out of ten he would, at the very least, be ordered to come in future to the basement door.\u2019 \u2018Can you suggest any way out of the difficulty?\u2019 \u2018I think the whole thing must be put upon a different basis.There should be large training schools for teaching housekeeping in all its branches.There should be a well planned curriculum and regular exam.nations and diplomas given.Some other name than \u2018servant\u2019 would need to be given to the graduates, just what I do not know, and I would advise a uniform.Housekeepers should be trained just as nurses are.From the \u2018Sairey Gamp\u2019 type nurses have developed till now there is no profession more respected than that of nursing.It should be the same with the profession of housekeeping.And I think the end desired will only be reached in\u2019 something of the same way.\u2019 \u2018But is not that matter largely in the hands of you men?You have full charge of our school curriculums.You profess to ?believe that the office of house-mother is the highest a woman is called upon to fill, yet what provision do you make for it ?Even cooking is not taught in any of our schools, and a girl's studies are now so exacting that she has even no time to learn a little at home by helping her mother.\u2019 \u2018You are right,\u201d was the reply, \u2018and if I had any influence on our school beards, I would do my best to have that altered.But you women should move in the matter.Petition our school! boards and urge that their methods be made to meet the housekeeping needs of the day.\u2019 Now, what the Home Department would Hke is more expressions of opinion on this subject.Is this man right or not?If he is right, what can be done in the matter now?MISS AGNES E.SLACK.W.C.T.U.women of Montreal are looking forward with interest to hearing next week Miss Agnes E.Slack.the honorary secretary of the World's W.C.T.U., a sketch of whom appeared in the Home some months ago.Miss Slack is vouched for by all who have heard her as a public speaker of unusual ability.She has made her name quite outside of the temperance ranks.She is a member of the Women\u2019s Liberal Federation Executive Committee, which is the right arm of the Liberal party in England, a member of the Central Suffrage Society, and in her home in Derbyshire was for some time the only woman Poor Law Guardian.\u201dTwo years ago she devoted nearly the whole of the month of November to speaking at various strategic points in England on behalf of women can- MISS AGNES E.SLACK, Hon.Secretary of the World's W.C.T.U.didates for Poor Law Boards.She may be said to be a teetotaller by inheritance.Her fatiier, a leading Wesleyan in Derbyshire, was a total abstainer, and in his house such apostles of temperance as Dr.Lees and Mr.Raper always made their home when working in the neighborhood.Miss Slack says that even as a little child she became convinced that there was no greater boon for any one than to be able, by God's as- gistance, to save some people from i0isery and clear away the temptations of drink.\u2018Miss Slack,\u201d says a London writer, Mrs.Fenwick Miller, \u2018is the right person for the office she is now holding.She is well edu- cuted, of a good old English family, pretty to look at, still in the bloom of her years, and yet experienced in labor for the public good.She is a fine speaker, and is sufficiently free from private ties to give her best to the work she holds worthy\" of her best.\u2019 Miss Slack declined a stated salary for her W.C.T.U.work, asking only a certain sum for clerical help.She is here for two purposes, to become thoroughly acquainted\u2019 with the work of the W.C.T.U.in Canada and to help Canadian workers to be up in all the work of the world's union.All temperance workers, especially sll W.C.T.U.women, will be glad of the opportunity of hearing her when she comes to Montreal next week.MORE ABOUT A HAT.I was very glad to see friend Ruth's letter about a hat.Do let us keep the subject stirred up.I am sure we only need to think.Women are not cruel by nature, but I am afrald we often are by thoughtlessness.Every Sabbath, before me in church, sits a tender loving mother who nightly hushes her beautiful babies to sleep, and she wears in her hat two lovely tufts torn, it may be, from the breasts of brooding mother birds.Do you imagine she would wear them for a moment if she thought?But the milliner says, \u2018Oh, but they are lovely and so stylish,\u201d and on to the hat they go when something else would be far lovelier.There are so many dainty pretty things now-a-days to make and trim with that we might surely let God's feathered minstrels alone.And we need not fear in the least that our hats will lack in beauty, because we leave the birds to flash their bright wings and trill their glad songs where the loving-Father meant they should, in His free air.I received a catalogue.from a leading house the other day, and there were birds and wings and ospreys in every variety, with the note: \u2018These will be much used for this season.\u201d Out of thirty-four cuts of hats twenty-seven were trimmed with those things.\u2019 I quote from an American paper: \u2018Our birds are fast disappearing.In the South the once plentiful mocking-bird and red bird have been thinned off,and in the North the blue bird has hardly been seen for the last two years.Women are almost entirely responsible for the killing of the song birds and the bright denizens of the fields and groves.It is time for them to be ashamed of themselves.\u2019 Well, as I said before, it is time for us to stop and think.If we went back in thought to the mangled little body, and perhaps heard the cry of the starving baby birds, surely our womanly nature would shrink from adorning ourselves at such a cost, own hands.Men will not kill these birds to any extent for mere sport.It is for the money there is in it.If we refuse to buy the traffic will stop at once.Let us be independent and say \u2018not another bird shall be killed for me to wear.\u201d Killed for me to wear ; that sounds ugly, doesn't it ?True it is, nevertheless.They are killed and not too mercifully sometimes either.But I hear the snip of the editor's scissors.Somebody else \u201cplease speak; do not let the subject drop.DOROTHY DAYS.A CONQUEROR.(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox.) I saw an angel with majestic mien, And radiant brow, and smile divinely sweet.Strong human passions writhed about his feet.: There, too, expired those coward faults which screen \u2018 Themselves behind inheritance; and lean On dead men for their strength ; and think it meet That all lay prostrate \u2014 owning their defeat.Then to the Spirit with the eyes serene, I cried aloud in wonder and ip awe: \u2018Oh, mighty One, who art thou, thy glance Can circumvent heredity, cheat cliance, And conquer Nature ?What thine occult law ?Art thou incarnate Soul ?\u2019 The Angel answered, \u2018I am Self-Control?that Fate\u2014the Over- DEFINE YOUR WORK HOURS.Dear Editor Home,\u2014Although I am not one who keeps a servant, afer reading all that has been sald in the Home Department, I am constralned to say a few words on the question.It strikes me that the easiest and most satisfactory way to settle the matter, would be to engage the household help just as men hire clerks or chore boys; pay them whatever can be agreed upon, and then decide upon so many hours\u2019 work, after which the time is their own to do as they like.Only I would make a proviso that they should not be out after a certain hour in the evening without some good Pedason.If wanted for work over-time, pay them extra.I believe there are many women who object to their servants having company; then I would suggest that the girls have a club room where they can meet for a little recreation of an innocent and elevating character, and perhaps the ladies for whom the girls work would contribute books, games, ete, etc.But to my mind to make and keep a good servant every well appointed house should have for the servant's use a bright little sitting room off from ihe kitcHéh' where she can have her easy chair, small lounge, table for reading, and writing tf terial, and any pretty little.ornaments that she might like, to make her life pleasant We have the remedy wholly in our | a | A RULE THAT WORKS BOTH WAYS.Dear Home Editor, \u2014Once more I venture to intrude in our Home Department, to give a few remarks on the domestic problem which is making so many housekeepers slaves, and so many girls living libels.I want to ask the writer of the letter signea \u2018Bridget O'Flaherty,\u2019 if she will apply the Golden Rule when managing her own household?Will she be willing to always get her evening meal and clear it away?Will she allow her servant girl to go out when she likes, without asking permission?If housework is so distasteful on account of Sunday work why do not our milkmen, train-hands, mgtormen, drug store clerks, nurses, doctors and ministers \u2018kick\u2019 too?Will \u2018Bridget\u2019 have as much time to herself when she has a husband to get breakfast for at six in the morning, and two or three children to dress and get ready for school by eight?Single girls have few cares.You servants of the present day, Attention give to what I say; Your useless hands, you know it's true, Neglect so much that you should do, And yet profess you are Al.But, really, I can find not one Who can a perfect kitchen keep, But everything is in a heap.Would you have ladies hire to you To teach you all your duties through?Pray tell us, servants, what you ask Or what you call your daily task?We're tired of hearing these complaints Of household helps; \u2019twould tire a saint.Why not give up your stubborn ways And do whate\u2019er your mistress says?What do you do when work is ended?Read novels, with your clothes unmended; Or else you go out for a walk Not caring If your mistress talk Why not improve the shining hour Your pots and pans and kettles scour?There's but one thing appeals to you, Your monthly wage when it is due.ENGLISH PRACTICAL HOUSEKEEPER.A NOONTIDE PRAYER.Dear Sisters of the Home, \u2014 Those of you who are W.C.T.U.sisters, and were at the convention at Knowlton, will remember the request at one of the noonday prayer meetings, or, perhaps it may have passed from your mind, but don\u2019t let ft.That is the object of my letter to-day.I know not yet whether that prayer has been answered or no.If is has been, and God by the influence of his Holy Spirit, has constrained that man to give up his unholy and unlawful traffic, still he will need your prayers, that wisdom and guidance may be hig: for when a man has spent all the best years of his life dealing in that which blights and blasts all that is \u2018pure and lovely and of good repute,\u201d it would seem that his own resources must be blighted, too.But God is able to keep and direct all: that is ,committed unto him.So my sisters, and all who read this, will you not continue to plead with God, that this stubborn will may be broken and brought into Harmony with the Divine will, and no more liquor to be sold in Ayer\u2019s Flats.H.M.E.and happy.Then if the mistress would Cook\u2014\u2018Phwere do yez live?\u201d Mrs.B.\u2014 Orange, ma\u2019am.\u2019 Cook\u2014\u2018Dthot\u2019s in the counthry7* Mrs.B.\u2014Yes, ma\u2019am.Cook\u2014\u2018Is there a Polishe foorce there ?Mrs.B.\u2014\u2018Yes, ma'am.A very good one.\u2019 Mrs.B.\u2014\u2018Very.\u2019 you're amiable, an\u2019 not à big ayter, mebbe to-morrer.\u2019\u2014 Harper's Bazar.\u201d Cook\u2014\u2018Well, O1\u2019ll sphake to the lady as lasht did your cookin\u2019, an\u2019 East Hatley, Oct.16, 1896.THE INTELLIGENCE OFFICE OF THE FUTURE.Cook\u2014'Are the mimbers agreeable loike?- it she says O#fll thry yez fer a month.Come back now and then present her with a good book or pretty ornament, or teach her and get her interested in some pretty, useful needle work, many girls would not care to roam about after hours.I would like to say to those women whose lives are given up mostly to pleasure and society, it would pot lessen their dignity if once or twice a year they would allow their servant to invite in a few friends and hergalt assiat in making it pleasant for them and fur- cishing light refreshments.In that way I believe she would keep the respect and Jove of a good servant, and be doing better missionary work than she knows of.Hoping this will not take up too much of your valuable space, I am, respectfully, \u2019 A.J.B.Bedfcrd.\u2014_\u2014 WOMEN MUST WAKE UP.The returns from the Methodist conferences, remarks the \u2018Congregationalist,\u2019 show a falling off in the vote in favor of the amendment admitting women to the General Conference which threatens its defeat.The women must wake up, and wake up the men or they will find themselves ex- cluded after.all.A FRESH WATER AQUARIUM.In reply to the query how tô make and keep a fresh water aquarium, Mr.G.A.Lucas sends the following:\u2014A good adua- rium is not only a great ornament but also a never ending source of pleasure and delight, and the antics of its occupants would arouse the sense ofthe ludicrous in the dullest observer.The construction of one is a very simple matter.Procure four school slates, of large size, and replace the slate in three of them with glass.The fourth is to be placed next the window, and is left of slate, to avoid excess of light which favors vegetable growth on the glass.Fasten these around a base made of inch oak, with screws 80 as to form a box with three sides of glass and one of slate.Fill up composed of resin, four parts; bees-wax, one part; a little boiled oil.When melted stir in a few spoonfuls of plaster of Paris.Soak the aquarium for four or five days, then fill to the depth of.an inch, with a layer of sharp sand, and a few pebbles.Plant a few water plants, procurable in any stream, to supply oxygen to the fish, and then the water need not be changed at \u2018all, it all matter that might decay be re- the corners and all crevices with cement moved.Floating weeds will flourish for months, and cast a shadow in which the fish delight.These weeds will even send rootlets down to the bottom of the tank.Success depends on adjusting a fair balance of forces, only introducing as many fishes as the plants can supply with oxygen.A gasping fish indicates an insufficiency of oxygen; one standing on his tail indicates disease, and it should be removed.Stock with minnows, perch, chub, water beetles and snalls.These latter are the scavengers which keep the sides of the tank clean.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 CHRISTMAS OR WEDDING CAKE.Dear Editor Home,\u2014In answer to \u2018Arc- Ha\u2019 I send this recipe: Christmas or Weddiag Cake.\u2014Flour, butter, sugar, raisins (stoned), of each three pounds.Six pounds of currants picked washed and dried; two dozen of eggs; orange, lemon and citron peel, of each one- quarter pound; mace, nutmeg and cinnamon, of each one ounce, and one-half-pint sour milk.Beat the butter to a cream, add the sugar and beat all till soft and light.Stir in the yolks of the eggs beaten to a froth, thert the froth of the whites, continue beating, mix the currants, raisins, spices and peel, cut small, with the flour on a cake board, stir this into the mixture, stirring some time longer, then add the milk and mix that well in.Butter two large cake ting and divide the mixture; one should be a size smaller than the other.Bake three hours in a well-heated oven and when done turn out to cool: Place one on top of the other and ice.Won't some of our friends give us some hints on household eéonomy.Young housekeepers like myself would like to know what to cook and how to cook it to save money.I like the hints on how women can earn money at home and abroad.Give us some more, friends.One womarf I know makes mixed pickles in glass jats for a store and another cans tomatoes in quart glass jars.I enjoy this department very much and would like to exchange hints with my sister workers.JENNIE.\u2014 THE OLDEST WOMAN PUBLISHER.The oldest woman publisher is Mrs.Charlotte Fowler Wells, of the phrenologi- cal firm of Fowler & Wells, New York.She has been president of the firm since 1884.She still keeps her desk at the publishing house although eighty-four years old.MAPLE LEAVES.I went to church last Bunday evening and, like many other people who go to church and listen silently to some disagreeable sentiment which they don\u2019t like and often don\u2019t even believe, I longed to \u2018sass- back.\u2019 As that was, of course, impossible, I kept up a \u2018heap o' thinkin\u2019.\u2019 The clergyman compared man\u2019s life to a day.He dwelt at length upon the cloudy day, and impressed upon us how sin dark- | ned our lives and hung like a great cloud over our little world.From this be worked on to another kind of day.One upon which the clouds at morning hung dark and threatening; but at evening they broke into a glorious sunset.And then he reversed the order of things and spoke of bright young lives darkened in their bright young promise.After a few moments more of war waged against clouds in general, the benediction was pronounced and we all went home.Now, that clergyman simply ignored the day that was bright from morning until night.Yet the truth which I know he meant.te teach might just as well have been worked out from the bright side.It was God\u2019s works he wighed to teach.Yet in his endeavor to do se he dwelt at length upon Satan's part of the life.Granted there is sin and sorrow upon the earth, we must also grant that there 18 goodness and brightness even as the earth is God's creation.Sin awakened our first parents from an unconscious unfon with God.Purity brings us back to a consclous union with him even as he said: \u201cThe pure fn heart shall gee God.\u2019 As the sun\u2019s rays breaking through the cloud-banks soon dis- pol the darkness, so pure and merry hearts and tongues and actions, were all well disposed people to adopt them, would more quickly dispel surrounding evil than a great deal of upholding of that evil to cen- gure.Clouds certainly do come and are necessary.If some life is so filled with shadow as to make that person blind to the sunshine, touch such a heart by a sun- tipped cloud and lead it away from sorrow to brighter days.I would suggest for the common good and comfort of all that we club together and outshine any possible existing evil until the whole world shall be a glad song like a spring day and all that is not good and.pure and honest shall flee away like the gaunt shadows of night before the approaching day.Then clergymen in their pulpits shall preach the goodness and beauty and grandeur and true womanliness and manliness of the ideal for which they wish us to strive, and all humanity shall desire to be good rather than fear to be evil, and vice shall have no place in this Canada of ours anyway.As Canadians our lives can not be symbolized by a cloudy day.The vigorous young maple is our true symbol.The young leaves give evidence of health and vigor.Free grace and health mellow these into beautiful autumnal tints, And as our country grows older and more cultured why shall it not be that ideal land of which a good old thinker wrote and called for \u2018A Christian Athens.\u2019 K.M.V.COMFORTABLE LUNCHES AT LOW PRICES.Dear Editor Home,\u2014In last Saturday's \u2018Witness,\u2019 under the heading \u2018Cheap Lunches,\u2019 the writer In referring to the necessary appetizing food, adds: \u2018What is needed too, {8 a pleasant luwnch-room where a cup of hot tea would be included, for the same price, ten cents.\u2019 As an additional answer to those already given, allow me to mention the Y.W.C.A.Branch Home, 2434 St.Catherine strest, where this desirable ad- | junet to a comfortalle 1 [low price, may be dun.t who go there have exnr.{tion with the arrangerre- - also is central and co: SECHE ORPHAN Git.Dcar Editor Home.\u20141 « \u2018Sister Grace\u2019 my experi;

in 1892, 10144 percent ; in 1893, 11% percent and 10 percent \u2018extra\u2019; in 1894, 12 percent ; in 1895, 12 percent.There is no need to insist upon the fact that the existence of such corporations as these, holding a position of tyrannical supremacy in a certain industry and paying large dividends on an enormous capital, is detrimental to the interests of the consumer.It is the fashion to abuse competition in these days, and to contend that the race to outstrip one\u2019s fellow-crea- tures in producing a good and cheap article is not consistent with the Lighest ideals of humanity.Without attempting to soar with modern criticism into the empyrean of transcendental economics, we may perhaps point out that there is something to be said for a system which provides our poorer classes with the neces- series of life and many of its lesser comforts at a rate which leaves the most modest income some margin to be devoted to culture or other purposes.The effects of the \u2018combine\u2019 system, though its organizers have worked it tactfully and discreetly, always endeavoring to stop just short of the point at which their exactions would become intolerable, may be judged from the fact that one of the £great parties in the United States has been \u2018captured\u2019 by enthusiasts who can see no way to salvation except through the destruction of the whole commercial fabric of the country.It is not only that the consumer has to pay more for his goods, and that the power of the trusts Is closely con- | nected with the truck system which nearly provoked a revolution in England in the days of the Chartists.Owing to the existence of these huge monopolies individual enterprise is crushed ; no one can dare to \u2018set hip for himself\u2019 with the certainty that if he works up a business worth having he will be driven out of the field and his connection will be seized on by a corporation with millions of capital, and a centralized organization behind it ; and thus opportunities for the legitimate development of trade are hopelessly lost, because the great corporations, though their existence\u2018 keeps the small trader from starting, cannot possibly spy out all the, open- + Morceco vase;

so with tea, one pound of \u2018Salada\u2019 Ceylon Tea, will yield more tea extract than twice the quantity of inferior teas; not only twice the quantity, but twice the quality.\u2018Refined gold,\u2019 not mixed metal.Of course,there are very many counterfeits of \u2018Salada,\u2019 as there is counterfeit gold.You must watch for the registered trade mark: \u2018Salada\u2019 on every sealed lead packet, the same as you look for the Government stamp on gold.24 Fur Repairs.\u2014If you have furs to repair, it is the best time to bring them to us, before our busy -séason begins, we will do.them at extremely low prives.First-clasg cuiters and fitters.Perfect fit and workmanship guaranteed.Wave your furs repaired in a reliabls establish.- ment.Old furs made as good as.naw.Charles Desjardins & Cie, 1637 St.Cath- Lyn Ri re Ea gemmes À Ë PS J I ua A;

Three \u2018Henty books\u2019 are worthy of mention next.Mr.G.A.Henty\u2019s industry is so well known that no one will be surprised to hear that three new works of his have been brought out by Scribner\u2019s for the present season.Of these, \u2018At Agincourt\u2019 might almost be called an historical novel, as the careers of several personages are developed simultaneously, and a valiant young woman receives her meed of admiration and marries the hero.\u2018On the Irrawaddy\u2019 is a tale of the first English war with Burma.Stanley Brooke, knowing the Burmese language, penetrates the wilder part of the country, has hair-breadth escapes and performs gallant deeds in the usual manner of Henty\u2019s young men.Points of honor come up of which the mention is doubtless useful to boy readers, but the author has not included the consideration of how far deception is fair in war.\u2018With Cochrane, the Dauntless,\u201d gives the adventures of a young lieutenant in South America and elsewhere.He sails with Lord Cochrane (better \u2018known, perhaps, as Dundonald) on some of his later voyages, and the earlier part of the admiral\u2019s career is told him by an old officer, so that the story practically includes a useful biography.(W.Foster Brown, $1.50 each.) \u2018Through Swamp and Glade,\u2019 by ; Kirk Munroe (Scribner\u2019s), is a story of the Seminole war in Florida.Indians and white people are alike sympathetically .- drawn.The author feels strongly for the wrongs of the - we - anne > RE a A RTI AR CREA, ae 5 FA Mat Indians, and weaves a romance of love and friendship round the facts of their struggle for a free life in Florida, which is entirely suitable for young people and calculated to inspire a love of justice.(W.Foster Brown, $1.26.) \u2018The Log of a Privateersman, by Harry Collingwood, author of \u2018A Pirate Island,\u2019 is a fine example of the old-fashioned sea-story which is occasionally rather clogged for the ordinary reader, though not for boys, by such language as this: \u2018\u2018\u201cWest- and-by-noth, and nothin\u2019 higher, sir,\u201d answered the man easing his weather helm a couple of spokes as I turned away to see the preventer backstays being rigged.\u2019 Pirates play their part in the story, but the manner in which the interest is made to centre rather around the well- meaning people shows considerable Skill The writing is in some parts most effective.(Scribner\u2019s, $1.50.) PRINCESS OSRA.\u2018The Heart of Princess Osra,\u2019 by Anthony Hope, is published in Long- man\u2019s paper edition.It consists of nine stories about different admirers of a wonderful princess who lived in Strelsau,near Zenda, but might as well have lived in fairyland, so typical and free from the exigencies of actual place and time are her adventures.There is something Shakespearian in the quality of Osra\u2019s womanhood.She has some heart for almost all the suitors, but not an undivided heart for any, and is much puzzled thereabout, and resolves not to wod at all.In the last chapter a duke wixs her by courting her in the disguise of a poor student, whose hopeless love makes him melancholy and interest: ing.The story about Stephen, the silversmith, who dies in defending the princess, is extremely beautiful.We have glirhpses of another side of Osra\u2019s character in some of the tales.She goes on one occasion to a fair dressed as a peasant girl to help a poor man-\u2014a highwayman, as at turns out.He has made a wager to bring to the fair a prettier girl than the bride of his neighbor Otho.The poor little bride is in tears.seeing all eyes turned upon the newcomer as if fascinated\u2014even Otho's.\u2018Ah, my dcar,\u201d said Osra, \u2018see he still loves you, dear.Ah, why did I come ?But I am going away, yes, now, and I shall never come here again.I do harm where- ever I go! Yes, but you'll be the prettiest girl in the village always.Otho, Otho! Kiss her, Otho! Tell her that you love ber, Otho.Don\u2019t stand there dumb.Oh how stupid men are! Don\u2019t you see what she wants?Yes, do it again.I never saw anybody so pretty, Otho.Yes, yes, dear, keep the bag.It's from me; you must keep it and buy pretty clothes, and be prettier than ever, for Otho's sake, because he loves you.\u2019 By the time the Princess Osra had ended her consolations,behold she was very nearly crying herself! But Lotta put her arms round the Princess's neck and kissed her, because she said that Otho still loved her, and in her gratitude for this she forgot thanks for the bag of crowns, or even to wonder who this girl was that could give away a thousand crowns.How mediaeval this is in ecircum- stance, how modern in spirit ! MISCELLANY, \u2018The Worlds Money Problem\u2019 (Part 1), by Theodore Marbury, shows that the financial difficulties of the United States are not caused solely by conditions within that country.The history of bimetallism in Europe and America is reviewed, with the conclusion that \u2018the slightest undervaluation of one of the metals under any system by which they were both used as a money ba- Bis led to an inevitable loss of that metal\u201d An improvement in the state of commerce generally, the author thinks, is about to dawn, and the United States ought not to make hard times an excuse for dishonesty in any case.A few good words are said on the subject of national honor.(Cushing & Co., Baltimore, 15.cents.) \u2014\u2014The X Ray,\u2019 by Wm.J.Morton, M.D., in collaboration with Edwin VA Hammer, electrical engineer, gives full directions for the taking of X-ray photographs.It also explains very simply and fully some of the commonest {echnical terms in connection with this new art, and gives examples of its utility.(American Technical Book Co., New York, 50 cents.)\u2014 \"Feeding in Barly Infancy,\u201d a pamphlet by Arthur V.Meigs, M.D., gives a very good mode of preparing a food for young infants by mixing very creamy milk with water, milk-sugar and lime- water.As is well known, cow\u2019s | milk contains too much casein for in- Pres FÉES dde FE Pr tai issus liao heir-apparent The Czarites with the Grand Duchess Olga.THE .CZAR\u2019S VISIT The Czar.The Queen.The Prince of Wales TO THE QUEEN: FOUR GENERATIONS AT BALMORAL.\u2014London \u201cGraphic.fants unless diluted.(W.B.Saunders, Philadelphia.)\u2014\u2014'Lean\u2019s Royal Navy List\u2019 is a full directory of the officers of the British navy, even to \u2018Retired assistant paymasters.\u2019 Ligts of those naval officers.possessing.the Victoria Cross and other decorations and medals help to swell this quarterly publication to a good size., It is à reliable book of reference.(With- erby & Co., London, England.)

THE POPE AND THE ROYAL ITALIAN WEDDING.Victor Emmanuel, Prince of Naples and to thé throne of Italy, finds that the course of true love runs no smoother for persons .of exalted rank than for those of humbler mold.The father of the lady of his choice offers no impediments, and to his parents Princess Helen\" of Montenegro is welcome.as a daughter-in-law.But an unexpected cloud has arisen in the shape of political antagonism from the Pope.The \u2018Strass- burger Post\u2019 writes on this subject as follows : \u2018Princess Helen's change from the Orthodox Greek to the Roman Catholic: form of faith, which must precede the wedding, is not likely to oause trouble, urless there is some difficulty in arranging that she leave Montenegro as a member of the Greek Church\u2014as her father wishes her to do\u2014and yet arrives in Italy as a full- fledged Roman Catholic\u2014as the Italians would like to receive her.Some way out of this dilemma can be found, however.Nor is there any ground for the supposition that a hitch will occur in the ceremony to be performed by the civil authorities.The real difficulty lies in the circumstance that now, for the first time in history, an heir-apparent to the throne of united Italy is to be married in church at Rome.\u201cWhen King Humbert and Queen Marg- herita were married Florence still was the royal residence, and Victor Emanuel .had not yet \u201csoiled his hands by robbing the church,\u201d as the adherents of the papacy express it.It must be remembered that the Italian monarchy, in accordance Articles.(The Massey Press, To-.with the constitution, recognizes the Ko- man Catholic faith as the state religion.It is therefore necessary that the nuptials of the Crown Prince should be performed at Rome with much ceremony, and that the church should give its blessing.But the struggle between the royalty and papacy is not yet ended at Rome ; the Vatican will not allow an imposing ecclesiastical ceremony.The Pope will refuse the higher prelates permission to participate, and it is possible that he will interfere in the choice of a suitable church.If the marriage took place at Monza or at the Cathedral of Milan, the House of Savoy could obtain all the ecclesiastical pomp desired for the occasion without any trouble, and, indeed, the Cathedral of Milan has been mentioned as tho best place.But many reasons make it desirable to show that Rome is not only the residence but also the capital of the kingdom of Italy.The court Is therefore compelled to- let the Vatican have a say in the matter.So far the Pope maintains his attitude of enmity against the Quirinal.He will not empower a cardinal to perform the ceremony, and refuses to give permission for the use of one of the Roman basilicas.Yeét the Pope fears he may go too far, and he will probably point out some other large.church for the royal wedding.The wedding will take place in the latter part of October or the beginning of November.\u2019 pere QUEEN VICTORIA\u2019S RECORD.Queen Victoria has reigned longer than any other British sovereign, and longer than any European prince except Louis XIV.of France, who was king- for seventy- two years, but: who remained under tutelage as\u2019 a \u2018minor for a> long.period after his as- censfon to the throne.Queen Victoria has .outlived all the members of the Privy Council: who were alive in 1837; all the peers who held their titles in 1837, except two; all the members of the Commons whe sat in the House on her ascension except - six.During her time there have been eleven Lord Chancellors, ten Prime Ministers; six bishops of every see, and five or six of many sees; five Archbishops of Canterbury, and six of York, and five Command- ers-in-Chief.She has seen seventeeñn Presidents of the United States, ten Viceroys of Canada, and fifteen Viceroys of India.During her timo France has been ruled by one King, one Emperor and six Presidents, Five Kings have cccupied the throne of Prussia during her reign, and three.Emperors\u2019 have ruled in Russia.The Kings of Prussia have enormolusly increased their power by the unity of Germany.The insignificant Italian states have been con- gclidated under the Kouse of Savoy into a powerful empire.The Sultan of Turkey has :4 lost the majority of his possessions, and new and prosperous states have arisen in the Balkan.Navies have been built wbere none were befors, and the position of Great Britain as mistress of the seas is seriously disputed.In the United States and in Germany, industy and commerce have been developed to such an extent that both sources of wealth are no longer in the sole Speakers of the Commons; at least three ; dre ey VI ad Si EE nde Lida possession of Great Britain.In territorial expansion the British Empire under Queen Victoria almost kept pace with Russia and the United States, but the only attempt made to conquer a nation of European descent, the Boers, failed.Neither in science, nor in art, nor in engineering has Great Britain fallen behind any of the most civ- {lized nations.eee BLOOD-THIRST.The passion of which the word \u2018blood- thirst\u2019 is truly descriptive seems to be a kind of temporary munia excited in human beings by killing human beings, and in them only by that act.Animals are fres of it.Even the great felidae, with their ferccity developed by generations of hunger, never display it\u2014never, for example, attack whole herds for the pleasure of killing beasts which they cannot eat.There is a faint approach to it in the dog who \u2018worries\u2019 a flock of sheep, but he does mot kill on the spot, and seems at all events to be actuated not by lust of blood or even by the spirit of tyrarny, but by an insane desire for a special dainty\u2014the fat of the sheep's liver.The human being with the blood-thirst on him wants most to kill after he has been killing.Soldiers, otherwise most respectable, have acknowledged tho feeling as rising in them after a hard-fought day when many friends have fallen round them \u2014and there are moments in battle when, as the soldiers say, they \u2018see red,\u2019 and in many armies, perhaps in all, it is difficult for their officers to induce them to give quarter.| Killing relieves their burning thirst for vengeance.There are moments in almost every campaign, as all military historians know, when even highly disciplined soldiers seem to lose their reason, when their officers are powerless, and perfectly useless carnage cannot be stopped.The existence of this passion, which no exnerienced soldier doubts, is the true ex-| planation of the awful slaughter which occurred in some ancient and some Asiatic \u2018battles, and of that ghastly incident of warfare among savages, their almost constant habit of killing the wounded.It explains also the devilish excitement and thirst for more slaughter which, as the record of scenes like the St.Bartholomew murders or the murders recently committed in Constantinople proves, falls upon a crowd which has shed much blood.Many, perhaps a majority, do wot feel it, but the ferocious remainder seem to £0 literally and medically mad.with an impulse which has in it that of the murderer and of the hunter combined, and unless controlled by some form of terror they will go on killing while victims remain to be discovered.A separate passion of blood Bhedding arises in them, and tigers would be less cruel, the cruelty\u2014it is one of the strangest of the arcana of humhn nature\u2014 increasing with the absence of resistance.It might, indeed, be possible to hold them partly irresponsible, but for the fact that they can instantly be reduced to order and sanity by appealing to their fears.À few soldiers, a:wvolley, and the wildest mob, mad, literally mad to all appearance with the blood-thirst, will become on the instant reasbnable, will take orders, will abandon, and in aome instances even regret, its frightful excesses.A whiff of grape-shot would have calmed the French Terrorists at any moment, and a thousand of the Irish Constabulary with rifles would restore the worst mob of Constantinople to comparative sanity in ten minutes.\u2014London \u2018Spectator.\u2019 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9 1854 \u2018chimère,\u2019 (For LY THE UNiux 21.\u2018The flag that braved a \u2018> ., The battle and tre ;-.\u201ca Still waves aloft as if - Britannia\u2019s stormy wes.Her numerous foes, fi: Cry out that she rue And even herself some: She neared destruciio: But when the hour of And the stout British - Were called to fight as « In many former wars &hen rose the shout of + As from deep ocean's c.« To heaven it rose, defy: - \u2018Britannia rules the «.-.\u201cLégen 7 Er But when these famous +;
