this And how will it affect Can- but whether they carry it or not, there 1s httle doubt that 1t will be carried.1f \u2018they\u2019 could not face parliament without some such measure, it 13 little

morning 10 84 Bleury street, was opened on Sal- Uday, but after Mrs.Marr had given bei evidence and Drs.Mclaggart and Dugas had made their report on the autopsy, Coroner McMahon adjourned it until Wednesday morning.The policed are to gather further information concerning the case and Coroner McMahon wishes to learn more about the girl's character from relatives.At the n- quest Drs.Mclaggart and Dugas said congestion of the brain, whuoh might have been caused by either poison or overwork, was the cause of death.Mrs.Marr did not know the girl very well, and said she might have had troubles she knew nothing of.However, sh: had never heard Miss Marcotte complain and was surprised to hear her moaning on Friday morning, at which time Dr.Ricard was summoned to attend her.RUN DOWN BY AN

Feb.16.\u2014A valuable de posit of graphite has been discovered at Frenchvale, Cape Breton, by Mr.Neil 1).Campbell, who, at a depth of 25 feet, found a 13-foot seam.Samples were analyzed, and were

on the Bras d'Or lakes.The greatest deposit of graphite at present is found on the island of Ceylon.The Ceylon product finds ready sale in New York at $120 a ton.A number of minor deposits are found

THRONE.\u2014 London, Feb.19.\u2014It is understood that the King\u2019s speech at the opening of parliament to-day will include an expres- ston of satisfaction on (Great Britain's continued peaceful relations in Europe, especially with France, and a desire for a imendly solution of the Moroccan conference.lt will also contain an announcement concerning conditions in South Africa, the appointment of a commission to proceed thither to examine into the question of a franchise, and that meanwhile the importation of Chinese to the Transvaal shall be stopped, and the terms of the Chinese ordinance subjected to revision.The suggestion of the following legislative programme will be made: \u2014 An education bill, a trades disputes bill, a workmen's compensation act.an amendment of last year\u2019s act for the relief of the unemployed, the repeal of the Irish coercion act, the instruction of a Scottish education bill, and of bills for the equalization of rates in London and other Minor measures.No official forecast of the speech from the throne has been issued, but the fore going \u2018indicates its general drift.It is quite certain that the speech will be the most radieal ever put into the mouth ot a sovereign.Although it is known that the government will not attempt a home rule bill for Ireland, well-informed persons assert that the cabinet has discussed the possibility of some sort of a devolution measure or scheme for relieving the congestion of parliamentary business.It is even stated that the King\u2019s speech will contain a hint of such an intention.The Earl of Aberdeen, the Vicerov of Ireland, while a guest of the College of Surgeons on Saturday, made a significant reference to Irish affairs.After remarking the great change in public feeling in England towards freland in the last thirty years, as full of hope for Ireland, be said: \u2014 \u2018There is another auspicious feature in the outlook.I allude to well-grounded belief that His Majesty the King is actuated by a warm solicitude for the welfare of Ireland and her people.\u2019 IN GREAT PERIL.Surrounded by Many Hidden Dangers.There are thousands of people who are quite unconscious of the dangers they court in allow; their health to run down.From a f-sick, half-well condition, it is only a step further to some disease like Typhoid or Pneumonia.When nerves are irritable, sleep is always disturbed, appetite is poor, and the blood is thin.In the very worst way you require a course of Ferrozone, which has restored many thousands from enfeebled, run-down health, and will make you vigorous and strong in a comparatively short time.\u2018The benefit derived from Ferrozone,\u2019 writes Mr.W.P.Grinell, of Moncton, \u2018is really astonishing.For two years 1 was never free from nervous headache and acute pains in the back and side.The regular use of Ferrozone made my health better than ever before.1 am ten pounds heavier, and feel stronger and better in every way, as the result of Fer- rozone.\u2019 Mrs.M.W.Schneider, of Portland, writes: \u2018Eight months ago l was so 1ll with stomach trouble that I never expected to be well again.Everything I ate fermented and caused dyspeptic pains.My head ached so I thought it would split.I found Ierrozone a treasure.Eight boxes made me as healthy as any woman could wish to be.; Ferrozone is a specific for all diseases of the nerves, stomach, kidneys, liver, bladder, and positively cures rheumatism, sick headache, and tired, nervous feeling.Price, 50 cents per box, or six boxes for $2.50, at all

But what can 1 do?I came here only to implore the Lady of Ringstetten\u2019s pardon for my rude language yesterday.| have no doubt you meant what you did kindly, goble dame; but you little knew what a trial your words would be to me, and 1 was so alarmed and bewildered that many à hasty.wicked word escaped my lips.Ab, forgive me, forgive me! am unhappy enough already.Only consider what | was yesterday morning, even at the beginning of your feast, and what | am now.\u201d Mer words were lost in a flood oi bitter tears, and Undine, equally affected, fell weeping on her neck.It was long before her emotion would let her speak; at length she said: \u2018You shall go to Ringstetten with us; all shall be us we had settled it before; only call me Un- dine again, and not \u201clady\u201d and \u2018noble dame.\u2019 You see, we began by being exchanged in our cradles; our lives have been linked from that hour.and we will trv to bind them so closely that no human power shall sever us.Come with us to Ringstetten, and aH will be well.We will live like sisters there; trust me for arranging tbat.\u201d Bertalda looked umidly at Huldbrand.The mght ot thin beautiful forsaken maiden atfected him: he gave \u2018her his hand.and encour- aged her kinily to trust herself to him \u2014 and his wife.\u2018 As to your parents,\u201d ssid he, * we will let them know why you do not appear\u2019; and he would have said much more concerning the good old folks, but he observed that Bertaida shuddered at the mention of them, ant therefore dropped the subject.He gave her his arm, placed first Her and then Undine in the carriage, and rode cheer fully after them; he urgad the drivers on so effectually that they very soon found themselves out of sight of the city, and beyond the reach of sad recoi- lections\u2014and the two ladies could fully enjoy the beautiful country through which the road wound along.; After a few days\u2019 travelling, they arrived, one sunny evening, at the castle of Ringstetten.Jte young lord bad much business with his steward and laborers to occupy him, so that Undine was left alone with Bertalda.They took a walk on the high ramparts of the castle, and admired the rich Swabian landscape, which lay far and wide around them.A tall man suddenly came up, with a courteous obeisance; and Ber- talda could not help thinking him very like the ominous man of the fountain.The Likeness struck her still more, when, upon an impatient «nd even menacing gesture of Undine\u2019s, he went away with the same hasty step and shake of the head \u2018as before.» Do not be afraid, lear Bertalda,\u2019 said Undine, \u2018 the ugly man shall not.hagm ou this time\u2019 After which she told er whole story, beginning from her birth, and how they had been exchanged in their darlieat c ood.At first her friend looked at her with serious alarm: she thought that Undine was possessed by some delirium.But she beeame convinced that it was all true, as she listened to the well-connected narrative, which accounted so well for the strange eventg of the last months; bemdes which, there is something in genuine truth which finds an answer in ev heart, and can hardly be mistaken.he was bewildered when she found herself one of the actors in a living fairy tale, and as wild a tale as any she had read.She gazed upon Undine with reverence, but could not help feeling a chill thrown over her affection for her; and that evening, at supper-time, she wondered at the knight's fond love and familiarity toward a heing whom she now looked upon as rather a spirit than a human creature, (To be continued.) prets The exclusive rights in Canada Tor a splendid Serial Story, have been soocured by us and It will begin as soon as the present short tale is finished.DIVINE BREATHINGS.MONDAY, FIBB.19.BEWARE OF MEN.Believers are to .be on guard lest they be led astray by man\u2019s teaching.Three tunes the Lord warns us on thie point.(Matt.vii., 15; x., 17; xvi., 6.) Beware is sometimes translated \u2018to take heed.(1.Tim.i, 4; iv, 1; Titus i, 14.) The Spirit speaks of men who will fall away from the faith, giving heed to the teaching of demons, and turn from the faith to lies.(II.Pet.ii, 1; I.Tim.iv, 1; l{.Tim.iv, 3, 4.) + 1 We are to take heed to ourselves and to our teaching, and thus preserve ourselves and others.(I.Tim.iv., 16.) Paul says, \u2018Woe to me if 1 preach not the gospel.\u201d (L Cor.ix,, 16.) What that gospel is and how Paul received it, he tells us in I.Cor.xv., 1.Paul's foundation was Christ crucified and risen.(I.Cor.iii.11.) In John's Gay many false prophets were in the world.(I.John iv., 1.) There are many such in these days, whom we are not to receive.(II.John.) But special- lv we need to watch ourselves, or rather to trust in Christ's keeping, and the Spirit's teaching, to have a right understanding of the Scriptures and of Bible truth, and thus be sound in the faith ana able to teach others the first principles of the oracles of God.(lleb.v., 12; Rom.iii., 2; II.Tim.iii., 15: ii, 15.)

Speaking as a banker.he believed he expressed the sentiments of his asssociation when he said that their one object in life was to keep cut of the hands of the legal fraternity.(Remewad laughter.) ; .Mr.Knight, Mr.Morin and Mr.Ca- telli also replied.; The toast of the Bar was briefly proposed by Senator Dandurand and Mr.Meredith.SOUND LEGAL ADMINISTRATION.Responding, Sir Melbourne ait emphasized the fact that the progr admn- i ai istration of justice had much to do with the progress of the country and the hap-: piness of its people.Good administration of the law meant security of person and property to a degree which was hardly : realized by the people until brought to\u2019 their notice by comparison with the cen-, i other country\u2019 ditions existent in some !
