weët* ip on its continuance in ordér te facilitate.travelling arrangements, must complete such before Sept.25, if they are to enjoy the reduced rates which have =o long prevailed between certain points.The C.P.R.has accepted the decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission that it is not entitled to the.differential daimed upon its \u2018through lmisiness.to\u2019 the coast, and will Speretory restore | \u2018its The offetaifioxt OF the decision\u201d bas} not yet { promulgated, \u2018but a special | copy was forwarded to the C.F.R.This shows some variance from the alleged text as originally printed, but, upon the whole, the first report proves to be fairly accurate.In a circular issued to the executive officers of competing and connecting lines, Mr.Shaughnessy, vice-president of the C.P.R., announcing the adhesion of the company to the decision of the commission, says that it was not understood by the company that that body would go into the question of the differential, and in consequence the company was not prepared with the evidence in detail upon which the C.P.R.based its claim; but the commissioners having, notwithstanding, dealt with this subject, and given.it as their decision that the company was not entitled to the differential, the latter accepts the judgment and will act accordingly.|; Mr.Shaughnessy naturally quotes those passages in the report which regard the attitude of the C.P.R.favorably.For instance, the commission finds that the company did nothing in the premises which savored of constraint.In claiming a differential, the C.P.R.was doing what many other American lines had done.The C.P.R., in ing the course which it had done, was acting as it only could have acted in view of the stand taken by some of the American lines, notably the Great Northern, which had undertaken not only to aboliah the differential, but bad actually: taken-g diff bial J unfair in the present ie of the C.P.R.before that body.a offered to arbitrate the question at issue with its rivals, which was a mode provided for in the constitution of many railway systems.The C.P.R.might be wrong in its contention, but it could not be said thit it had resorted to the mode of the highwayman to sustain that contention.The C.P.R., in the circular referred tn, is not slack to point out that while the commission was of the opinion that the C.P.R.had no right to the traffic Letween New York and San Francisco, nwing to the greater length of its route, it had, at the same time, notwithstanding almost equal proportionate difference in distance between points in eastern (anada and Manitoba\u2014suspended the operation of the fourth section of the Interstate Commerce act, known as the \u201cTeng and short haul,\u201d to enable the American lines, via Chicago and St.Paul, tn compete with the C.P .R.for purty Canadian business to and from Manitoba, without disturbing their intermediate rates.The C.P.R.ventures tn believe that this point will receive the further consideration of the commissing.Mr.Shaughnessy praises the epirit of fairness which animated the commission ard takes pains to point out that every step the C.P.R.has taken from the beginning of the contest has been justified by the finding, which was marked by a spirit of fair play, all the more satisfactory in that the C.P.R.was a \u201cforeign corporation,\u2019 while on the other side was a combination of American companies represeating seventy thousand miles of railway.Mr.Shaughnessy urges this point of importance: The commission seemed to have lost sight of the fact that while tie CP.R.was competing with the Tne States railways for interstate tro?several of the more important lines in the United States are active mretitars of the C.P.R.for Cana- \"in traffic: and\u2019 the

TEMPERANCE DRINKS.A delegation from the Licensed Vie- tuallers\u2019 Association, accompanied by their counsel, had an interview yesterday with Mr.Brosnan, comptroller, and Mr.Lambe, collector of provincial revenue, with a view to induce the government to submit the question of the le gality of the sale of the so-called temperance drinks, without a license, to the Court of Appeal, the highest tribunal in the province, in order to obtain a final judicial decision.As it is, the decisions given in Quebec and in Montreal are conflicting, and being convinced that the Court of Appesl would maintain Judge Desnoyer\u2019s opinion, that all alcoholic beverages come under the license law, the victuallers wish to have a decision from that tribunal.They prefer this to waiting for the report of the commission appointed to test the.different grades of beer, w:cently confiscated, particulars regarding which have already appeared in the \u2018Witnees.\u2019 \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 tte BAD

MAGOG.Magog, Que., Sept.7\u2014The twenty- fourth annual session of the Grand Lodge of Quebec, I.O.G.T., is now in session, and about fifty delegates are present, among them being Mr.W.H.Lambly, G.C.T., of Inverness, and many others prominent in the order.Last evening the welcome reception to the delegates was a very pleasant affair, and the visitors were at once placed at euse by the cordiality of the gathering.The session opened at ten o\u2019clock this morning in the District Degree, with Mr.J.V.Jackson, D.C.F., in the chair.Several candidates took the degree.Immediately after the Grand Lodge was called, with Mr.W.H] Lambly, G.C.T., in the chair.After the report of the credenial committee, twelve candidates took the Grand Lodge degree.The Grand Chief Templar then presented his annual report, which showed an-increase of \u2018membership and told of the work done by himself and some of his deputies during the past year.He laid special emphasis on the plebiscite campaign, and urged every Good Tetnplar to go into the fight .The report -of the Grand Electoral Superintendent was next presented.The Grand Superintendent of the Juvenile Templars then presented his report, and showed two temples in working order.The executive _ session is now in progress.re EARL OF AVA AT TORONTO.Toronto, Sept.7.\u2014The Earl of Ava, whose given name is Archibald Jones Leofric Temple

well-known composition \u2018Vive la France.\u2019 This brought out a speech from the French statesman, who expressed his pleasure in meeting the young generation\u2019 who were the hope not only of

ought to consider tho matter coolly and in isolation, and if they come, as we believe they must, to the conclusions we have, they ought themselves to propose to the Americans the abrogation of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and the substitution for it of another treaty by which England and America shall mutually bind themselves to allow no power except the United States of America to make or control nny canal across the isthmus, and to declare that if and whén the United States shall make such canal, it shall be open on equal terms to the ships of all nations at peace with the United States.\u2018That is a treaty which might be the be- _ ginning of a distinct understanding between the United States and England.We are not in favor of a formal alliance, but such a treaty as we have described plus a treaty binding both power to refer all their disputes to arbitration would séon grow into an understanding {ar more secure than a hastily formed alliance.Depend upon it, the Clayton- Bulwer treaty is worth considering, and depend \u2018wp it also, the-more clearly it 18 considered, the more \u2018evident it will become that the sensible thing is to allow America.to make the canal either Ly the Nicaraguan lake or by buying cut and finighing the Paname canal.Personally, we would rather ask no quid fro quo for the abrogation of the treaty, for England\u2019s friendship for America is not in reality based upon mutual ad- x e, but on, something far deeper.If.however, the diplomatists must have n quid pro quo for fear of feeling that they have somchow been \u2018done,\u2019 we have re doubt that the State Department at Vashington will be able to afford them a good oficial excusc for allowing the abrogation of the treaty of 1830.There nrc a dozen points in regard to Canada which might\u2019 be set agninst the tearing v un of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty.\u2014Lon- den \u2018Spectator.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 COLD SEEKER DROWNED.Winnipeg,

reprobation if there should appear to be any kind of carelessness.Canada has an equal calamity every week\u2014 a far greater one measured by the resultant misery\u2014in the fatalities whieh result from the liquor traffic, but, because we are aceustomed to it, we, for the most part, contemplate the disaster and ruin with equanimity.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014vam A correspondent expresses wonder at the apathy of good people on the very eve of a contest involving the supreme interests of our country.No doubt every one who contemplates the question shares this wonder, and at such moments most of us no doubt wonder at our own indifference.Those who are working day and night wonder at earnest Christian congregations whe are so busy organizing their ordinary means of work that when appealed to for workers in the prohibition eampaign they cannot afford even one.The Woman\u2019s Christian Temperance Union has called on Christians everywhere to observe to-day | as a day of prayer for victory.Those! who fall in heartily With this proposal will no doubt keep their minds\u2019 long: enough on the subject to consider what | may be their own duty towards the ang swering of that prayer.res The British Government ought to insist upon an immediate settlement of the Cretan trouble.For the past two years the British have borne by far the greatest share of the burden of restoring and maintaining order in the island, while such powers as Germany, which make trouble and prevent a settlement, share almost none of the burden.Great Britain has had ten warships at Crete, Italy four, Russia three, France threo, and Germany one.Great Britain has had on shore 2,020 troops, Italy 1,412, Russia 1,400, France 1,250, Austria 600, and Germany eleven.And yet it is Germany which has done little or nothing in comparison with other powers, which has time and sgain prevented a settlement being forced upon the Sultan by the powers.The Britigh; Govern ment has now an opportunity of enforcing & settlement, whieh, it in to be hoped, it will make the best use of.y.| {body \u2018à 'grest principle, as well hé*to.ins) dieato a.racial instinet in the devatop- ment of eiwilisstion, ,

like General Kitchener's ad\u201d vancé on Khartoum, neither hastens nor delays in its march to a definite goal.par Out of the good understanding which has arisen between Great Britain and the United States has come, there is rekt son to believe, the extraordinary change noticeable in the attitude of the European powers.Down to the time of the breaking out of the late war, and while its issue was undecided, that attitude was one of ill-concealed hostility and.menace to Great Britain.Her isolation and the possibility of her humiliation: were themes for almost constant refed ence in the columns of the continents] press.Now all that is changed: stead of Great Britain isolated, thé continental nations find themselves con fronted with a power in the -shapé of a united English-speaking people, whose \u2018genius they cannot hope\u201d to quell.The firstfruits of this vos] deol shape age: tan.De smn Ale famougyince Hoop the effusively expressed friendubip Germany for both Great Britain and \u2018the United States, the satisfaction shown by Austria and Italy at the prospect of sh understanding being reached by which arbitration will take the place of war in the settlement of international dis putes.A change so marvellous in so short a time is due to cohditions that flowed from the Spanish-American war, and in particular to that great act of brotherly service and lofty British statesmanship which crushed with a word the threatened combination of Europe against the United States.It is doubtful if the world yet fully realizes the grandeur, the far-reaching, world-wide revolution brought about by that one word of supreme diplomacy.It has done more for the peace of the-world and the welfare of mankind than all the battles that have been fought since the crusades.The whole fabric of international relations, built up on mutual jealousies, has been shaken to its foundations, and can hardly again reassume its former shape.\u2014\u2014 A feature of the capture of Omdurman and Khartoum which has per not attracted the attention which \u2018significance entitled it ta, was the running up of the British flag as well es the Egyptian one over both cities.There were those who doubted whether the \u2018Witness\u2019 cartoonist and the New York \u2018Tribune\u2019 writer, who both flew the British flag in their presentation of the situation, had not drawn on their imagination wholly for this feature, but it was as true literally as it was metaphorical- fact that the Egyptian a is a mere D -creation of the British War Department, as much as the Anglo-Indian

and under the command \u2018of\u2019 British officers.as the \u2018native army of India is never sent out.on an expédition without being stifiened by a British division, so the Egyptian army of twelve thousand men sent against a fos fanatically brave and overwhelmingly strong in numbers, \u201cwos backed by & British division unugually strong, numbering cight thousand choioe troops, who marched, of

peoples, against the arrogance and greed of Germany, whieh oppressed the natives and supported the claims of & rival to the throne in order to create trouble which would give her an excuse for seizing the islands.Great Britain, the third power interested during the most critical period of the struggle, rather sided with Germany and against the United States, we are sorry to say.j Later, hawever, she took the right side, but Germany had then secured too firm & hold upon the islands, and though a settlement by which the true king, Malie- toa, was placed on the throne, was foreed by the United States and Great Britain upon Germany, the latter pa- tion has been able to render it of no avail.In 1877 the native chiefs of Samoa invited Great Britain to take the islands under her protection because of the frauds and oppressions of a German firm in the islands, named Goddefroye & Company.There was no objection on the part of | any other power, but Great Britain aid \u2018not care to add to her responsibilities, and declined.The German firm changed into an Incorporated company, the \u2018Deutsche Handels und Plantagen Gesell- schaft der Sudsee Inselm zu Hamburg, of which Count Otto.Von Bismarck was #ip{&ahateholder.Until the.arrival of he.Sermon mien, Up: Detiinh wad.curr traders: had contanied \u2018themselves with buying the copra, or dessicated cocoanut kernels, from the natives as they prepared it, storing it and sending it away in the schooners that ealled periodically at the stations for it, leaviog frésh supplies of goods to barter for the copra.i The Hamburg eompany pursued a different course.By selling rum and firearms, the sale of which had been discouraged by the British and American traders, it managed to induce the natives, hitherto very reluctant to do so, to sell their fertile lands, which are not very plentiful.On the lands thus secured the German cotnpany controlled the manufacture of tha copra, virtually muking slaves of the natives, who worke1 for it.This course was the cause of the trouble with the mild and placid tempered Samoans, and led to the German oppression complained of by the natives to the British.These quarrels, of course, involved King Malietoa, and the Ger mans supported a rival who quickly made his appearance under the circumstances in one.Tamatese.The American con- su! supported Malietoa, and managed to ta defend him in his rights, though the Germans sent warships with a force to | support their favorite.For years the wars beiween-the rivel king went on, involving the American and German consuls and naval forces in the.squabbles.The forces of the two nations seemed to be on the point of coming to a fight when the hurricane of the fifteenth of March, 1889, wrecked the warships of both nations in Apia harbor, only the British corvette \u2018Calliope\u2019 being able to steam out into the open sea in the face of the tropical tempest.It was on this occasion that the American seamen drifting to death on their own ships cheered the British on the \u2018Calliope\u2019 as she slowly \u2018made her way past them out in the teeth of the storm, an incident which thrilled [both Anglo-Saxon; nations.To the honor of the humanity and Christianity of the Samoans they worked hard to have-the lives of the German sailors, their etiemies, as well as those of their friends, the United States

Tutuila, with an area of about fifty-five square miles only, but also well wooded and watered, and possessing in Pango-Pango Bay tlie best natural har- hor, it is said, in the South Beas.Over this bay the United States has long held treaty rights as a coaling station.To Great Britain is allotted the largest island of the group, Sawaii, seven hundred square miles in area, but almost entirely occupied by lofty and barren mountains, without rivers or streams, with a porous soil, orn which nothing grows, and possessed of but one harbor, and that an indifferent one.With the Fiji Ie- lands comparatively close by, Great Britain hardly wants another coaling or cable station, and what use she could put Sawai to is not clear.There are ten smaller islands in the group, but all little more than barren rocks, The total trade of thé island for 18968 amounted to only $307,070, of which Germany\u2019s share was $180,446, Great Britain\u2019s $72,611, and that of the United States $34,013,

CHAP.IV.\u2014THE GLOOM OF SORROW.Meantime, a great sorrow shrouded the humble home of the Bethunes.After Henry had gone to pay the rent, the parents became anxious, as they noted the increasing violence of the storm, which raged around the little cottage like a demon, shaking windows and doors as if trying to force itself in upon the little group sitting round the cheerful open fire-place.; As the minutes and hours passed, without the return of their boy, the mother became very restless, and paced back and forth from her seat near the fire to the little window, frequently pulling back the blind and peering out through the frosty panes.The old-fashioned clock on the mantel-piece struck eleven.* James, dear, I fear something has happened to Harry.Harris and ask his advice.\u2019 \u201cI am anxious, too, wife.He should have returned an hour and a half ago.1 don\u2019t know what can keep him.Entering the tidy little bedroom adjoining the kitchen, the mother fell on er knecs, and sent up such a petition to our Father in heaven, as can only come from the depths of a mother\u2019s heart for a well-beloved child in danger.Then putting on her bonnet and shawl], she hurried out through the night and the blinding storm.Heedless of the furious wind and the deep piles of snow, she hastened on.Her heart was full of misgivings, whilst her soul was pouring out its strength in prayer for her darling boy.\u2018Why ! Mrs.Bethune ! What brings you out on such a night as this ?\u2019 exclaimed the minister, when the poor woman, pale and breathless, was ushered into his cosy study.\u2018I hope nothing serious has happened at home 7 \u2018No, sir, but Harry left home about eight o'clock to go across to South End to pay the rent as our landlord threatened to turn us out of doors if the money was not paid by noon to-morrow.I'm afraid he missed his way crossing the ice.It's very\u2014 \u2018He intended to cross the Tiver over the ice, did you say ?\u2019 the minister quick- \u2018Yes, fr.We knew the wind was off shore; but Harry did not think it risky, so he took the short cut, instead of going by way of the bridge\u2019 \u2018Well, if that\u2019s correct, I'm very much afraid Harry is carried away to sea, for Gecrge Harvey informed me that the ice was moving swiftly from land nearly two hours ago.\u2019 The poor mother nearly fainted when she heard the terrible news.\u2018Oh, sir,\u2019 she cried, \u2018 what shall we do?What shall we do ¥ \u2018I'll make Jem saddle Russet, and go round to your landlord to enquire wha- ther Harry arrived there or not, and of so, which way he intended to return by.\u2019 \"But before twelve o'clock that night, the little village was awakened by the lusty strokes of the school and church bells, sounding loudly sbove the roar of the wind.Men, women, and even children came forth to learn the news.Harry Bethune was lost.It was supposed he was carried out to sea on the ice pack, which was now many miles from land.The villagers bestirred themselves.It would be utter madness to put to sea in the frail punts in search of the lad.The only thing they could do was quickly done.On Point Bully Head, and other points of land, large fires were kindled, whilst from time to time guns were fired, in the hope that if Harry did land somewhere on the coast, he might find his way home through the boisterous night.The hours passed swiftly and daylight came; but Harry did not return.Not a piece of the immense ice-field could be seen when the sun got up.The sympathizing villagers could do Do more.Fires and guns were no longer of any usc.Sadly and slowly, the people re turned to their homes.In the home of the Bethunes was heard bitter crying.The little children wailed in their sor row.The father was frenzied with grief.Only the poor, loving mother bore up bravely, and although her heart was ready to break, endeavored to cheer the husband, and soothe the little ones.She was a woman of prayer and strong faith, Her heart was filled with a great sorrow, yet she thanked God for the comfort he gave her, in the thought which filled her mind\u2014that Harry was alive somewhere.That was a sad day, too, amongst the boys at school.Instead of the usual sports during recess, and after school, they walked up and down the snowy strezts, often gazing out to sea, and spoke im subdued tones to each other, as if they felt the presence of death was near.The teacher, who was very fond of the messing lad, also had a heavy heart.The bright, intelligent scholar was gone, bis place was empty.He cculd not look in the direction of Harrv\u2019s desk, without feeling a great lump in his throat.Several days passed away.The gloom I must go to Mr.|, lifted from the village end things went on as usual.The landlord could not find it in his heart to turn out the poor family, who were now in dire distress.mother\u2019s faith was greatly tried but above her troubles rose the sweet thought, wirich; she knew came from above, that she would see her boy in flesh again.- (To be continued.) mp Lisst\u2019s great skill with the piano was in part due to his immense, industry.For years he practiced ten hours a day.\u2014* Popular Science News.* Ap English tourist visited Arran, and, being a keen disciple, of Izaak - Walton, was arranging to have a day\u2019s good sport.Being told that the cleg, or horse-fly, would suit his purpose admirably for a lure, he addressed himself to isty, the Highland servant, \u2018I say, my girl, can you get me some horse-flies ?\u2019 Christy looked stupid, and he: repested his question.Finding that she did not yet comprehend him, he exclaimed, \u2018Why, girl ! did you never see a horee-fly ?\u2019 \u2018Naa, sir,\u2019 said the girl.\u2018But a wanee saw a coo jump ower a preshipice.\u2019\u2014 Exchange.So the days passed into weeks, The.FOR BILIOUS AKD NERVOUS DISORDER such as Wind and Pain in tho Stomach, Qiddiness, Fuiness after mesls, Headache, Dizziness, Drowsiness, Flushings Loss of Appetite, Costiveness, eo entra] brooms and ail tur eep, srvous abd.Trembling -Sqnsations.\"HR FIRST DOSE WILL G RELIEF A.WONDERFUL MEDICINE.BE AM'S P1LLS, taken \u201cad -direct- ed, will qulekly restore Females: ts som- -.plete health.They promptly remove : abs ttons or irregularities of the sys- ;

but did not he accident med a few minutes before the noon-hour, and several.men who had been on the bridge had just walked ashore.Among them was Mr.Simmons, the Phoenix Bridge Company's hief engineer.© To your correspondent to-night he said \u201cI can hardly realize that the bridge is gone.I told Mr.F.D.Anthony, the chief engineer of the Ottawa & New York Railway Company, this morning, that the bridge was practically ready for trains to cross.All that remained in their way was the hoisting engines on the shore span.A gang of men were at work taking down the big traveller, and 8 few rivetters were finishing the rivet- ting.I had just gone ashore, and was looking towards the bridge when all at once the pier in the centre of the two south spans seemed to crumble away, and the two completed and finished spans, with the thirty odd men working on them, tumbled into the water.\u2019 Most of the men were caught in the iron, and are probably pinned to the bottom of the river, which, at this point is over thirty feet deep.None of the bodies have been recovered, although the tug \u2018Beaver,\u201d with scows, divers and ping of men worked sll afternoon in the wreckage.Many of the wounded were hurt by jumping down to the bank.The newa was at once sent to Cornwall, and with all possible speed and care, the wounded were conveyed across Cornwall Island, and the north cban- nel to Cornwall, where their wounds were dressed in the Hotel Dien Hospital.Every doctor in town was present, and willing hands did all that could be done DES, ve ed:\u2014 JOHN WILSON, Malden, Mass, leg crushed;

where it was anchored and sunk to the bottom.The; cribs were sixty-two by sixteen feet.They were filled with stone and concrete to within \u2018a few feet of the top, after.which the water was pumped out and the layers of stone began.The locating.of the cribs was accomplished with considerable the depth of the The three spans of the bridge were each three hundred and seventy feet long and about thirty-seven feet above the water.Each of the spans weighed in the neighborhood of 350,000 pounds.The span: the false work, but the centre span toppled over on its side.The loss, including the necessary delay, is said to be in the neighborhood of $100,000.The case of the two foremen, Cubby and Jackson, was very sad.Cubby was married to a Cornwall young lady a cdu- ple of months ago, and Jackson was also only recently married.They were fine young men.Louis White got his injuries while making a desperate leap for life.He was high up on the bridge near the American shore, and with his natural presence of mind took in the situation at a glance, and, running shoreward, he sprang off the bridge on to the rocks on the river bank,:nearly fifty feet distant.He is one of the most intelligent and best.educated Indians in Canada.Another pathetic feature is the fact that when the first man to lose his life on the job, William Macauley, was buried last week, his fellow workmen subscribed a hundred and seventy-five dollars to ereet a monument over his grave, little thinking that in a few days many of them would share a similar fate.Cyril Campbell, a young man, with his wife, recently returned to Corawall from Marinette, .Wis.is a native of South Irdian, Ont.He was only employed a few days as painter.Davis was also a painter.- .THRE DAR 0 oy aix] EC ER TTBS there is a general impression in Cornwall that the piers were not built strong enough in the firet place.Concrete was used instead of solid masonry.The piers appeared narrow for the heavy strain that was put upon them.It ail seems illustratory that the old way was the best when, by means of a coffer dam, an excavation was made in the bottom of a river till rock bottom was reached and then the pier was built up from the inside, which, of course, was dry.The method used in the present instance was to sink a crib to the bottom and fill it up with concrete while it was full of water, at least until within a few feet of the surface, when the masonry was built on top.It is claimed this has been tried and found to be equally as durable and strong as the other plans, but it remains to be seen whether in the present instance the strong current of the St.Lawrence had not undermined the crib work and swept it away.Some also think the pier simply collapsed under the great weight, but of course there is no means of determining that point.The only evidence is that something underneath gave way, precipitating the upper structure into the river.Through the south channel, where the accident took place, the current is more rapid, and the volume of water going through it is larger than through the north channel.It is by way of this latter that the river steamboats pass, so that navigation will not be interfered with.Only rafts pass down the other.A large outlay will be necessary to remove the débris.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE PONTON CASE.Toronto, Sept.7.\u2014A despatch from Napanee states that the Crown authorities are making an endeavor to secure a change of venue in the Ponton trial.It is stated that affidavits are being sought to show that a fair trial may not be had in that county.Mr.B.B.Osler was seen yesterday, and said it was too early to say that a change of venue was being scught, but in view of the order issued by a high court judge in the civil action against the bank, involving practically the somc issue, it was the duty of the Crown officers by inquiry to ascertain the state of public opinion in Napanee and whether or not any unjust bias ex- irted.This was the extent to which action had been taken.Mr.Osler spoke as if he thought it just possible that pul- lic opinfon in Napanee was no} in a state conducive to the dispensation of cold justice.DIolice Magistrate Daly, who held the preliminary investigation, is reported to be of the opinion that it would be n stigma on the county of Lennox to l'nve the came taken from there on the wish to acquit the prisoner if guîty.er ESSEX GRAPE CROP.Windsor, Ont, Sept.6.\u2014The Essex county grape crop will be a fine ono this year.Concords are now celling at fifteen dollars a ton.the bottom of the river he.was below\u201d water and & ten-mile per honr currest.| CEREMONY A;
