passage until the middle or end of June, knowing that earlier in the season their way would be obstructed by ice.His voyages had been made in sailing ships, and of course steamers could make better progress.Still, he had no faith in the project.The Hudson Bay route was shorter by 500 miles than that by way of the lakes, but the latter was practicable six months in the year.He could not state how long the straits were open, as the time was variable owing to the diversity of seasons, but during the best seasons the time could bo but short.He thought it would be inexpedient to risk the outlay of money on building a railroad with a view of opening this route until more accurate information were obtained concerning it.London, Nov.3.\u2014The Ladies\u2019 Aid Society in connection with the Lucan

owners, and says the church will be well satistied with the $90, which when added to the receipts of the evening and the proceeds of the quilt in the item of names, will make something like £300.It is understood that Messrs Fox and Stanley have resigned their positions as churchwardens.The Newmarket Era tells us that the annual passover feast in connection with the Tunkards took place at Gormley's corners, between Whitechurch and Markham townships,Ont., on Saturday the 14th Oct.\u2014the service commencing at 4 p.m, and continuing until noon on Sunday.In the first place they kill what is termed

exhortations.Like the Friends, the sexes do not sit or worship together\u2014the males oceupy- ing ono side of the church and the females on the other.Members are exhorted to hold fast to the peculiar

inch thick and three inches wide; this is passed from one to another, each breaking off a small portion.When all are served thanks are given, and then follows the cating of the bread and drinking a

was at that time considered to Le one of the wealthiest men in the west.Ie lived in a first-class residence, kept his carriage, and was the first in this city to introduce a liveried footman.He was a brother-in-law of Judge Danicls, and was otherwise well connected.After leaving this city he went into partnership with tho well known firm of Buchanan, Harris, & Co, of Hamilton.In that city he married a niece of Mr R.W.Harris, which still tended to improve his financial standing.In the crisis which swept over the province a few years after, Mr Muir, who had been speculating freely was among the victims, and in an evil hour he had recourse to drink in order to stifle his grief.He now removed to Montreal, but it was only going from bad to worse, His career was now steadily downward, and to such an extent was ho reduced that he was obliged to travel the country as a book agent.When last seen in this city it was evident to those who were acquainted with him that he was fast breaking up.On his return to Montreal he was reduced to great poverty, and finally thru oxposure and the baleful effects of drink he fell a victim to disease and was removed to the Montreal hospital, whero à few days ago he died.During all his dreadful seasons of distress he seemed to realize his position keenly, and he kept aloof as much as possible from his former associates, his pride preventing him from making known his position to those who would have willingly stretched forth a saving hand.In his case, however, it would have apparently proved an impossibility to snatch the devotee of drink from the grave.He carefully concealed from his friends his whereabouts, and after his death in the hospital his remains were taken to the dissecting-room to be operated on, as is the custom, by the Montreal students.Just as the Professor was about to plunge the knife into the subject an old friend arrived at the dissecting-room in the eatest haste and excitement, and for- © the Professor proceeding.After some parley the matter was satisfactorily explained, and the remains of the once wealthy, influential and respected Wm.Muir were taken in charge, and decent voting went on at a lively rate until when

some money from Mrs Scratcherd and her hired man for the purchasing a coffin for the enclosure of the remains.They set out for London with about $1 in their possession, but on their way called into two taverns where they squandered all they essed for drink and did not return.he neighbors kindly sat up with the body, which was placed on the lounge without a shred of covering, all Wednesday night.Thursday came and passed, but no news of the men was received.The warden of the county was visited and acquainted with the circumstances, and immediately ordered a coffin, and on Friday afternoon the remains were interred at the Roman Catholic cemetery in presence of threo men and a few ladies, the sons not being present.The Toronto corrospondont of the True Witness writes: Observo how the Conservatives are all the time seeking to gain Ontario mounted on tho Protestant horse, Firat, there was the Orange Incorporation bill, second, \u201cMarmion,\u201d and thore is, third, the

STATES.Washington, la, November 6.\u2014While a farmer wus milking in a barn on Saturday night, accompanied by two infant sons, the lott fell in, crushing all threo beneath it.Tho hay caught fire from a lamp tho furmer was using, and both the boys and sevoral cows and horses wore burned to doath.An Atlanta, Ga, sight the other day was a cart drawn by a team of tamo alligators, New York, November 0.\u2014Mr Herbert Spencer was tendered a complimentary dinner by over two hundred gentlemen, at Delmonico's to-night.Mr l£varts introduced tho guest and paid a high tribute to his work.Mr Spencer, on rising, was applauded.Ho spoke with some effort, owing to his feeble health.lle said, along with the kindness of his American friends there came to him a great unkindness from fate, ilo then mentioned many attentions and proffered hospitalities he met with during his late tour, and said : \u201cIt seems to me in one respect that Amoricans have diverged too widely from savages.I do not mean to say thoy are in gencral unduly civilized.Thruout large parte of tho population, even in long settled regions, there is no excess of these virtues needed for the maintenance of social harmony, especially out in the West.Men's dealings do not betray too much of \u201csweetness and light,\u201d which, wo are told, distinguish the cultured man from the barbarian.Nevertheless, there is a sense in which my assertion is true.You know primitive man lacks the power of applieation.Spurred by hunger, danger or revenge, he can exert himself energetically for a time, but his energy is spasmodic.Monotonous daily toil is impossible to him.It is otherwise with the more developed man.The stern discipline of social life has gradually increased the aptitude for persistent industry, until among us, and still more among you, work has become with many a passion.This contrast of nature has another aspect : the savage thinks only of present satisfactions, and leaves future satisfactions un- cared for.Contrariwise, the American, eagerly pursuing future good, almost ignores what good the passing day offers him, and when future good is gained, he neglects that, while striving for some still remoter good.What I have seen and heard during my stay among you forced on me the belief that this slow change from habitual incrtoess to persistent activity has reached an extreme from which there must begin a counterchange and reaction.Everywhere I have been struck with the number of faces which told in strong lines of burdens that had to he borne.I have been struck, too, with the large proportion of grey-haired men, and enquiries brought out the fact that with you hair commonly begins to turn some ten years earlier than with us.Moreover, in every circle I met men who had themselves suffered from nervous collapses due to stress of business, or named friends who had killed themselves by overwork or been permanently incapacitated or had wasted long periods in endeavors to recover their health, I do but echo the opinion of all ohserving persons I have spoken to : that immense injury is being done by this high pressure life.Physique is being undermined beyond serious physical mischief, caused by overwork.There is the further mischief that it destroys what value there would otherwise be in the leisure part of life.Nor do the evils end here, There is injury to posterity.Damaged constitutions reappear in children, and entail on them far more ill than great fortunes yield them of good.When ife hes been duly rationalized by science it will bo scen that among man\u2019s duties the care of the body is imperative.His constitution will be considered as an en- uninjured, if not improved, to those who follow.We have somewhat too much of the gospel of work.It is time to preach the gospel of relaxation.A Chi man gave bail for the woman who had shot him, in order that she might be free to nurse him while he was recovering from the dangerous wound.She had intended to kill him, but he believed that she was sorry, and would take the best care of him as a matter of self- interest.The Rev Thos, Guard, a highly esteemed Methodist pastor of Baltimore, wrote to one of two sisters who had gone to California.Ho meant to address the younger, \u2018but made a mistake in the name, and so sent the letter to the elder.After considerable correspondence he made an offer of marriage, and was accepted\u2014by the wrong woman.He got released, but was never successful in the other quarter.Preparations for a christening were interrupted by a murder in the tenement- house at No.72 Jackson street, Now York.Rooms on the third floor of the building have Leen occupied for less than a year by John J.Caldon, a carpenter, twenty-eight years old, his young wife, and his father- in-law, Thomas Donohue.Caldon\u2019s famil was increased on last Friday by tho birt of a son.The father was away iu Eliza- bethport, N.J., working at his trade when the babe was born.He arrived home with his week's wages, and ho began at once to make arrangements for & christening.le wont out and purchased some liquors, and the liquor dealer, named Norton, promised to act as godfather.Other friends were invited to the house, and before 9 p.m.Caldon was drunk.1lis father-in-law had often upbraided bim for being intoxicated, and he began to rail at him in the presence of somo of the guests.At longth Donohue, who was an impulsive Irishinan, went up to his son-in-law and struck him in tho face, at tho samo time cursing him.Caldon was cutting his nails with a

Ireland was to remain on its ancient foundation or bo broken up.The Government had not scrupled to uso the powors entrusted to them with vigor and determination ; at tho samo time they rolied more cenfidently on measures of justice.le could now record his conviction that a now tone of sentiment was dawning among the Irish tn seek the amelioration of law by peaceful efforts.Ho ventured to say that the foundations of socioty in Iroland were now but in little danger.Tho monthly return of agrarian outrages wa« now 111, compared with 511 in October, 1881.There might be in Ireland extravagant opinions and denires that could nover be fulfilled, but, if the Irish would be content te walk in tho ways of legality, the Empiro was strong and free onough to entertain in a friendly, kindly spirit any demand made for froe dia cussion and perfect publicity in matters relating to ite [rinh policy.British inatitations would have strength onough, he was firmly convinced, to effect a settlement of every political controversy by bringing it to a completely satisfactory, or at least à fair and tolerable, issue.Mr (Gladstone highly praised tho conduct of the British forces in the Egyptian campaign, which he believed would be memorablo in history.The Government must not be too confident of the future.The vast extent of the Empire ex- osed them to ever-recurring anxiety.Yet o cherished tho hope that England would ever be able to prove her power in associa tion with liberty.It seems somewhat hard to mulet a de- fondant in damages for breach of promise of marriage when in open court

serious consideration to our rulers and business men that the crop of Ontario is going to realize nearly a third less than was counted upon, which will have a.great effect upon the purchasing-ability of the country.As wheat continues to decline in England, a still further reduction in prices is to be looked for.The relieving feature in the situation is the abundance of the crop, for if the farmers get less per bushel they have more bushels than usual to sell.In this Province, the fall in prices is not so much felt.Its staple grain, peas, brings a a fair price, dairy produce is not much below the average of the 3 past years, while horses (an important item in the income of this District) were never so high.TE Ox Monday there was a slight panic in the shares of leading banks dropped from 3 Montreal stock-market, when - the to 6 per cent.\u2018The cause is the increased dearness of money and the curtailment of bank loans on stock-securities.Whether this little flurry is an indication of an approaching financial crisis remains to Le proven.The general impression is, that it is only a temporary ripple.The bank returns for October show that the discounts increased 3 millions and the issue of paper money + millions during the month, while the deposits have fallen off G million dollars.This tells plainly enough of inflation.It is unfortunate that, on this continent, business men know nothing of the happy medium between caution and enterprise in their ventures, In times of depression, we have stagnation unjustified by the facts, and in times like the present, speculation runs wild.We are always going too fast or too slow, and gradual and sure progress is unknown.PE A PAMPHLET, entitled \u201cThe Country the Party, and the Man,\u201d has made a stir in French-Canadian circles.It is written by a Blue, who signs himself Castor, and is a powerful indictment of Chapleau, Laying bare the scandalous private life of the ex-Premier and his failure as a lawyer, the writer states that he toek to politics as a means of replenishing his purse, and to advance himself used the priesthood as a lever, covering his irregularities by his professed devotion to the interests of the church, His connection with Dansereau and Senccal is traced, the writer being evidently conversant with all that passed behind the scenes, and the little jobs by which Chapleau has managed to pay his debts and accumulate a fortune in little over 6 years arc described.His resigning at Quebec and going to Ottawa is ascribed to fear of the consequence of his misdeeds.Castor closes with an indictment against Mr Chapleau containing 75 particulars and appeals for the formation of a Government composed of pious Programmist Conservatives, which, in plain English, means the return to office of Dr de Boucherville and Mr Ross, pe A sMALL but influential meeting was held in Toronto en Friday evening to expound the views of the \u201cNational Liberal Union,\u201d a political association which has existed for some time in that city.The Mayor, Mr McMurrich, who is President of the Union, was the speaker of the evening.He said the Union meant to try and supply the want of those who had become disgusted with both parties, with a reasonable and patriotic platform.Ho said : The fight over dead issues of the pub the traditions of the party, the fear of the consequences of acting independently of the party, the accident of birth should not keep, as they have kept, the men who think alike on the present living issues of the day from uniting together and carrying out these new thoughts, these new principles, these new courses of action which the ever-varying wants and conditions of the country, as it so rapidly pro- greases, demands.At no time in the political history of the country bas there ever existod à fecling of -fellowship classes into which the Canadian people have over been divided, and unless their minds are actuated and stimulated by common motives and their settlement directed by common impulses, no people ever had or can have the degree of political unity which alone can make them great.* * * At no period in the history of the Dominion has there arisen so great a necessity for the formation of a true national policy, because at no period of her bistory has Confederation been in greater danger than it is at the present time, owing to the feuds and evil legislation induced by party politics.Right-minded men are asking how long the present sys- tein of things is to continue, how long is the party machine to be the embodiment of political power.When the Government is pandering to sectional and sectarian influences, when not the merits of the man but his religion or devotion to party is the passport to power or honorable distinction, when members of a party arrogate to themselves the right to represent and dictate to Governments, and ecclesiastics what shall bo doue for them and sectarian purposes, it is surely time for all true Canadians to awake to the necessity and need that exists to take such steps as will induce such a change of affairs that love of country and not of party shall Le the emanating principlo to guide the clectorate, and those that shall represent them in our legislatures and governments.Coming to describe the now platform, the first plank laid down is \u201cNo creed, no province, no nationality, but Canada one and individable.\u201d To attain this a change in our present relations with Great Britain is unavoidable, and what its precise nature should Le is uncertain.The Union favors a federation of the Empire and the colonies, and if that is found impracticable\u2014 There can hardly be any great difficulty in taking the first step in this direction by tho formation of a commercial zollverein Letween the Mother Country and the colonies, so that they would be able to trade upon more favorable terms with one another, and exclude foreigners from the benefit of such trade.It is quite evident that the colonies must either be brought more closely into alliance with the mother land than at present, or set up as independent allies.On coming to particulars, the reforms defined by the Union are rather vague, the chief one being the rendering of the qualification for voting uniform thruout the Dominion.The great obstacle to the welding of Canada into a unit, the underlying cause of all the divisions the Union deplores, is tho existence of a State Church in the Province of Quebec.Possessed of emoluments collected by authority of Parliament and of exclusive privileges embodied in our statutes, the priesthood, in their own interests, are impelled to interfere in politics, and to use their great influence in securing the election of candidates who will be zealous defenders of their church, The consequence is, that three-fourths of the members sent to Ottawa from this Province have not been chosen on account of their ability to serve the country, but of their willingness to form a rampart round the immunities of their church.No party can exist without the votes of this phalanx, and it is the bidding for their support and the subserviency to their views, which is the origin of the demoralization among our politicians and of the sectionalism and pettiness of policy which the Union wishes to see changed.1f really in earnest, the Union will not rest content with uttering platitudes, but lay it down as its fundamental purpose, the severance of Church and State in the Province of Quebec.If it does this, it will command a rospectable following east of the Ottawa of men who care very little about party names.Should it hesitate to take so bold and patriotic a step, the Union will effect little in bringing about the unification of the Dominion it professes to have so much at heart.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE constitutional amendment in New York State, providing for the abolition of tolls in the canals, was ratified by a majority of 200,000, The rural districts voted against the amendment, the farmers justly objecting to being taxed to maintain canals for the conveyance of Western produce free, but their vote was more than counterbalanced by that of the cities.The effect of this vote on Canada is of moment, for, as a result, we may oxpect the Government will propose to make our canals free also.The tolls now collected upon them do not pay running expenses, but go a good way toward doing so, so that their total abolition will result in increasing the burdens of the country.And why our farmers should be taxed to give free passage to the ocean to the grain and dairy products of a foreign country, aiding the farmers of the Western States to compete with ours in Liverpool, we fail to see either the justice or prudence.Wo do not believe in Protection, and much less do we believe in offering a bonus to competitors.Yet we anticipate nothing else than that the advocates of the National Policy will be proposing, at next session, to remove the tolls from canals the construction and enlargement of which have sunk the Dominion deep in debt.in the minds and hearts of the various| THE Manitobe Legislature passed, at ita] the age\u2014s mental philosopher who has last session, acts incorporating 3 compe- nies with powers to build railways leading from the boundary line into the interior.All have been disallowed by the Dominion Government, on the ground that they conflict with the charter of the Pacific Syndicate, one clause of which enacts that for 20 years no company shall be permitted to build a railway south of its lind, The intention was to give the Syndicate a monopoly of all international trade.There is considerable indignation in Manitoba over the disallowance, meeting have been held, a delegation is to wait on Sir John, and an appeal to England is threatened.There is something very inconsistent in all this.When the contract was Leforo Parliament, the Manitoba members voted for it and the Manitoba Legislature acquiesced in its provisions.When Mr Blake moved an amendment to strike out the cluuse in question, it was voted down.The Dominion made a bargain with the Syndicate\u2014a onesided and outrageously extravagant bargain the Liberals thought\u2014and it has to be respected.AX outery having been raised by the Conservative press of Ontario that Archbishop Lynch is favoring the Liberals, a letter that dignitary wrote to Bishop Jamot, then of St Catharines, when the general election of 1367 was pending, has been brought to light, and in which he said :\u2014 We know that amongst Catholics in Canada there are some Reformers, We know also the great majority of them are Conservatives, and have supported Conservative Governments.I would therefore say to the Catholics in the first place\u2014give a fair trial to the present Government, which has successfully brought about the Confederation of the Provinces: give the present Government a share of that confidence which they have not as yet forfeited to Catholics.In the second place I would say, join the Catholics of Lower Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick in support of the present Government.It would be a misfortune to the Catholics of Ontario to sever themselves in politics from their co-religionists of the other provinces.There is no more likelihood to-day of the Catholics Leing materially divided than there wag in 1867.The Democrats have been subservient to the Hierarchy in the United States and the Conservatives in Canada, and both parties have got a solid vote in return and will continue to do so.Tue Archbishop of Quebec, last week, issued a pastoral dealing with the question of the French-Canadian exodus, which, despite the N.P., continues.He deplores that so many leave for the United States, where they suffer much and are in danger of losing their faith.The causes of the exodus he does not attribute to excessive population or the fact that those who go can do better in the United States than in this Province, but to the prevailing taste for high living and to intemperance.The Archbishop states that the habitants of to-day \u201care deplorably given to indebting themselves beyond measure for fashionable clothes, rich furniture, the entertainment of their friends, and for splendid horses and carriages, capping the whole too often with a lavish expenditure for strong drink, conducive to their own physical wreck, as well as to the impoverishment of their unfortunate families, and ultimately resulting in exile to a foreign land.\u201d He dwells feelingly on the injurious effect upon body, intellect and soul of factory-life, and urges parents to encourage their children to keop to farming, and \u201cinstead of dividing up the paternal\u2019 homesteads between them until they dwindle down virtually to nothing, to encourage their boys to go manfully forth, as their forefathers did, into tho forest and hew out an independent livelihood for themselves, and to eschew from this out the ruinous extravagances which prevent thom taking this patriotic step and so often drive them into exile and slavery, in a land where they lose their health, strength, and morals.\u201d The practical part of the pastoral is the instruction to priests, heads of colleges, seminaries, and religious communities to take up a yearly collection, from house to house, of 10 cents from each member, to be remitted to him and applied by a colonization society he is going to form for opening up and settling the wild lands of the Province.As an inducement to contribute the required 10 cents, the givers are to receive \u201ccertain spiritual benefits.\u201d The new society is to have the Archbishop for its President, who is to be aided by 2 lay and 2 clerical assistants of his own choosing.It will not only spread information about new settlements and endeavor to induce young people to go to them, open up roads and give some assistance to settlers at the first start, but \u201cwill come to the aid of the propagation of the faith in building chapels and providing missionaries for such new settlements.\u201d HERBERT SPENCER, whose remarks on Amerioa we copy in this and à previous issue, is the leading political economist of endeavored to apply the theories of school- men to the practical improvement of society.His comments, therefore, are to be received with deference.SET At a dinner given him by the citizens of Victoria, Lord Lorne spoke of the Indians of British Columbia as being of a different character from those West of the Rocky Mountains.His estimate of them is so surprising that we copy his remarks : 1 beliove I have seen the Indians of almost every tribo thruout the Dominion, and nowhere can you find any who are so trustworthy in regard to conduct, so willing to assist the white settlers by their labor, so independent and anxious to learn the secret of the white man\u2019s power.Where clsewhere are met constant de- mauds for assistance ; your Indians have never Asked for any, for in the interviews given to the chiefs their whole desire seemed to bo for schools and schoolmasters, and in reply to questions as to whether they would assist themselves in securing such institutions, they invariably replied that they would be glad to pay for them.(Loud applause.) It is certainly to be desired that somo of the funds apportioned for Indian purposes be given to provide them fully with schools in which industrial education mag form an impor- taut item, (Hear, hear) But we must not do injustice to the wilder tribes.Their case is totally different from that of your Indians.The buffalo was everything to the nomad.It gave him house, fuel, clothes, and thread.The disappearance of this animal left him starving.Here, on the contrary, the advent of the white men has never diminished the food supply of the native, Ile has game in abundance, for the deer are as numerous now as they ever have been.He has more fish than he knows what to do with, and the lessons in farming that you have taught him have given him a source of food supply of which he was previously ignorant.Indians anxious to work, who never ask for help, and who look for the schoolmaster, deserve to be encouraged.\u2014 @3 On Thanksgiving day the Methodists and Presbyterians of this village held a union service in the Second Presbyterian church, when the Rev J.Wilson preached.There was a good attendance and the collection, which was for the Montreal General Hospital, amounted to $23.&2 The Rev A.A.Campbell of Crathie, who has recently been appointed Domestic Chaplain to the Queen in Scotland, was for two years under the private tuition of the Rev Mr Muir of St Andrew's church in this village.&ZF Mussrs Stroop & Quick of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, visited this neighborhood last week to purchase Clydesdale brood mares for their stock farm.Owing to the high prices they offered, they managed to pick up a number of choice animals.From A.& J.Bell they bought 4, two of them being the prize takers in the teams at last Fair, and for which $600 was given.They also got 1 from Henry Seely, 1 from David Watson, 2 from David White, and 1 from Daniel Brims, being his pure-bred yearling, for which he was paid the handsome figure of $800.ZF A new post office has been opened in the parish of St Antoine Abbe, named Garland, and of which Dennis Cross has charge.#47 Mr Bergeron, M.P., has returned from his European trip and\u2014unmarried.&&F During the past Summer St Andrew\u2019s church congregation has expended about 3600 on the Manse and church.The Manse has been newly painted and other- ways improved.In the church a new and handsome gallery has been erected, capable of affording additional seat accommodation for 100 hearers.A new and elegant chandelier with side lamps has also been put in the church.By the liberality of the congregation the money has all been raised \u2014another evidence of the good times prevailing in the district.#25 On Monday forenoon a young man calling himself Horatio Bedard drove into the mill-yard of the Athelstan grist-mill, in such haste as to create suspicion in Mr Cameron's mind that all was not right, After feeding his horse his suspicions were still further aroused, when the young man offered his horse, waggon, and harness for sale below their value, and so far from home, as he said he belonged to Hemming- ford and had driven from there that morning.After he put a price on the whole rig, Mr Cameron told him he would find him a purchaser, which he did in Mr Geo.Anderson, In the meantime, before Mr Anderson had paid him for the same, the customs officer put a seizure on the rig, on suspicion of being American property, until such time as he could prove ownership and Canadian property.The young man, altho assured that he would ut to no trouble or expemse further than roving the above, evidently thought he ad a difficult case, as during the afternoon he cleared out and has not since been seen or heard from.The horse was put in charge of a responsible person and awaits further developments, #8\" Owing to

the ratepayers of the village.ar On Tuesday evening while Mr David Robertson of Hinchinbrook was driving to the Lines, at David Ewing's hill the axle snapped at the shoulder, throwing both himself and his wife out of the buggy.He held on to the lines, and succeeded in preventing the horse running away, and was not hurt to speak of.Mrs Robertson, however, was in great pain, and on Dr Cameron arriving he found that her shoulder was dislocated.He at once set it and she is now recovering.VALLEYFIELD.Tho weather for the past fortnight has been favorable for out-door work, and mason work is nearing completion.The water broke thru the coffer-dam on Sunday, and had it not been checked in time would have caused heavy damage to the contractor of the Cotton mill.Mr Boyer, notary, has decided on building a residence in the East end, The material will be stone with cut-stone corners.Mr Provost of Montreal is the contractor.Istimated cost, 35,800.It will give some idea of the advance in real estate here to mention: 12 months ago Mr Boyer offered a few acres of land fronting on the canal for $2,500, and could not find a buyer.Yesterday he arranged with Mr Provost to build him a house worth £5,800 and $2,500 in money in exchange for the same piece of land.Among the arrivals by Str.C.Anderson on Monday of last week we noticed Mrs and Miss Stirling of Redwing, Minn.The machinery for the new Cotton mill is beginning to arrive.English machinery will Le brought by rail to St Dominique thence ferry steamer.800 cases are expected in December and January.Mr Whitaker is attending very closely to his duties and an increase in profits will be the result.Ope Bougie, for disturbing the peace in the West end Tuesday night, appeared before Justices Plante and Madden Wednesday, and had his choice of $28 or two months in gaol.A few more such lessons are much needed in town.The steamers St Francis and Bohemian were loaded to the gangways on Tuesday night.Grain buyers aro more

of the Gazette.Sir,\u2014So much has been said and written about the Northwest that I had imagined every ono who felt any interest in Canada well informed about it.Therefore, 1 had not the slightest intention of inflicting on the public another Northwest letter, But sinco my return last week from a somewhat lengthy journoy to the Cochrane Ranch Co's range, on the Bow River, 1 have found that much ignorance prevails about tho fertility, resources and oxtent of that country, especially the portion of it West and Northwest from the Province of Manitoba.This igno- ranco, if passive, might be overlooked ; but it is having the effect of preventing settlers from going thero, as the following will show, and is thus doing injury and injustice to one of the finest whoat-growing countries in tho world : À couple of days ngo a young Scotch farmer waited upon me for advice as to farming in this country.He was an intelli- gont man, and had been some little time in Canada, and when I asked him why be did not go West, to my surprise ho told me that from what he had heard and read about the largo omigration to the Northwest, he supposed all the good land was taken up and the country overcrowded.Another case was that of a Montreal gen- tloman, who come to ascertain from me as to the truth of the existing impression, that all the good farming land suitable for colonization purposes had already been secured by the large companies now formed.These and other cases of a like nature, to- ether with à desiro to do the ceuntry fustice, are my reasons for giving you a brief account of what I saw and learned, and how 1 was impressed.I entered the Canadian Northwest Territory from Montana, and travelled on a trail about N.N.W., or nearly parailel to the base of tho Rocky Mountains, via Fort McLeod to Calgarry, a distance of about 150 miles, passing thru the land set apart by the Government for grazing, for which it is particu.larly well adapted, whilst for agriculturs] purposes 1 am satisfied, from information collected and the experience of the Cochrane Ranche Company aud others, that no land : west of Calgary can bo cultivated profitably, or is fit for farming, chiefly on account of the severe summer frosts.This I affirm, notwithstanding the efforts of parties, from political motives, desiring to prove the contrary.From the best information I could collect, the number of ranchmen who have placed stock on their ranges is twenty-five, with an aggregate of about 30,000 head of cattle, of which 15,000 are owned by the Cochrane Ranche Company.These berds, almost without exception, have been most judiciously chosen and aro principally of a high grade of short borne, superior to what is to be found in our Eastern Townships, the balls belonging to the Cochrane Runche Company being chiefly pure-bred Polled Angus, Herefords and shit horns.In addition to the cattle, a largo number of brood mares aro on tho ranges, tho Cochrane Rancho Company now owning 500 horses.With regard to the land west of Manitoba, I find an impression oxisting in which there may bo a shadow of truth, viz., that the C.P.R.has new reached the wostern limit of the best farming land; but in admitting this, it must be borne in mind that it has reforence to tho deep, rich prairie loam, of which there is such a largo extent in that province.llaving travelled over the surveyed portion of the C.P.R.from tLe Rockies to Swift Current Creek, a distance of about 350 miles, and from thence by rail to Win- nipog, I can speak from actual observation of the land lying between Winnipeg and the Rocky Mountains on the line of railway, \u2018And about the country along the Red Deer and other rivers, and that north of the railway towards Edmenton 1 speak from information collected from parties residing in the country.That there are occasional spots of light, gravelly and sandy eoil is to be admitted, but tho general characteristic of the scil bo- tween the present terminus of the railroad and Calgarry along the line is of a clayey nature, known to practical farmers as being well adapted for wheat growing, whilst the bottoms along the South Saskatchewan and Bow River aro simply magnificent, and equal to any land for wheat or other crops.Nono of this land has yot been taken up, with the exception of a few squatted lots at the crossing of the Saskatchewan at Medicine Hat, but no doubt will be filled up as fast as the railroad is extended, which will be next season.As to the land lying north of the Railway towards Edmonton, watered by the Red Deer, Battle, North Saskatchowan and other smaller rivers, I am assured on the authority of credible residents that thero are immense tracts of tho very finest farming lands waitiog to bo taken up, all thru that section of the country, much of which is well tim- bored.The want of railway communication thru this section must, no doubt, partially interfore with its rapid settlement; but I feel confident from what I have heard of the country, that it will not bo long before the Canadian Pacific Railway will find it to their interest to build a branch in the direction of Edmonton in order to opon up those valuable lands.Daring my journey I was much struck at not hearing of any Colonization Seciety or other organization having for its objeet the affording facilities to our French-Canadian farmers to go to that country.It is a well- known fact that in many parts of this province, numbers aro unable to do more than cke out an existence on their already worn out farms, and on this account are emigrating in largo numbers to the United States.Why is there not a move made in this direction by somo of our leading French- Canadian capitalists, and why should those natural riches bo all gathored by immigrants from foreign lands, while our hard working Canadians from many parts of the province would be only too glad to embrace the opportunity of bettering their circumstances ?If Ontario farmers, who are gonerally well to do, find it to their interest to emigrate to tho Northwest, as thoy have been doing for the last 3 years, why should it not be in the interest of many of the farmers of this province to do likewise.There being immense tracts of the best farming land still in tho market, somo of our patriotic French-Canadians should at once form ono or more colonization societies, having for their object tho settlement of somo of theso tracts by such Canadians as are desirous of bottering themselves.These societies can alone afford facilities for massing peoplo of kindred tastes, and by such means only can our Irench-Canadians be induced to leave their present homes, The religion, language, and institutions thoy prize so dearly, would thus be preserved to them undisturbed, which could hardly bo tho case when emigrating individually.My long experience in farming, and tho active interest I have taken in Provincial agricultural matters, naturally caused me to look more closely into tho country, from a farmer's point of viow, than the ordinary traveller ; sud the favorable impression produced on my mind by all I saw and heard during an extended journey, occupying nearly three months, induces me to urge upon those who are now working hard for a mere living, to go west to that rich, new and undovolop- ed country, where stout hearts and strong arms, guided by intelligence, cannot fail to secure a competence, if not wealth, That there is a great future awaiting tho Northwest, far beyond the most sanguine expectations, oven of those who have had an opportunity ef visiting the country, cannot bo doubted.5 > I cannot close this letter without accord- ently surprised, while the congregation exhibited koen interest in the circamstance, Then the reading went on, and at the

evening, at a quarter past eight, a firo com- monced in a barn yard in rear of a house occupied by Mederic Lefebvro, merchant, and notwithstanding the best efforts put forth by the fire department and the residents, it was not checked until 12 houses had been consumed along with a number of outbuildings, rendering nearly forty poor families homeless without saving any material part of their household goods, The body of Clephas Dupuis, a wealthy morchant of St Jacques, who so mysteriously disappeared at Joliette, on the 21st of last month, has been found in the Joliette river.Mr Dupuis, on the day of his disappearance, had been seen drinking in the village with five mon, and was known to have had $150 on his porson.IIo was last seen on the bridge which spans tho river, apparently running away from his companions, who wero pursuing him.On tho following morning his hat was found on the roadway.Several days ago High Constable Bisson- nette went out to Joliette for tho purpose of invostigating the matter.Suspicion of course fell upon tho five men who were the companions of tho unfortunate farmer.It was found, however, that two of them had left the place and gone, it was said, to the Upper Ottawa lumber districts.The other three remained in the village.The latter wero able to explain their movements during nearly the whole time of tho supposed murder, for sufficient information had beon extracted 10 leave hardly any doubt en this point.The men said that they had been drinking with Dupuis, and that he had suddenly started off, running in, the direction of the bridge.They had pursued him for a while, but had finally given up the chase and gone home.As a rule the result of the Lower St Lawrence fisheries has been satisfactory this year, and no fears are entertained of the prevalence of disasters among the fishor- men during the coming winter.Ottawa, Nov.10.\u2014Further details of tho alleged murder roported from Vankleek Hill have reached here.The namo of the victim was Ilenry Roberts, a man 26 years of ago, and one of four sons of à widow.Ho had bis left arm cut off in a sawmill about twelve years ago, and since that time he has not worked steadily.1le was usually employed in tho store of Mr Jamieson.On the evening of All Hallowe\u2019en Roberts loft Mr Lowe's store, about 7.30, to return to his mother\u2019s house.Ho was very drunk, and was noticed to fall to the ground soveral times.le reached the house about 8 o'clock.Ilis mother roturned shortly afterwards, and found him in his bed and moaning from the injuries he had received, but thought little of the matter, and left, to spend the night ata neighbor's house.Next morning, on roturning, she found him unconscious, and he died in a few hours.An inquest was hold, and a verdict of death from a blow roccived on tho head in some unknown way was returned.The injuries were largo marks on the right side of the head just bo- low the car, down to the angle of the jaw, and the fatal injury was on the left side of the head and broast.Constable Ilill was deputed to investigate the matter, and two brothers of the deceased man, named respectively Robert and Edward Roberts, were arrested on suspicion.Their preliminary examination was beld yesterday at L'Original, before Mr Johnson, J.P., but no evidence could bo produced against them and they were discharged.It is claimed now that the death of tho unfortunato man was caused by a fall on a heap of stones, by which his skull was fractured.While a ferry boat wag being loaded with a flock of turkeys at the Prescott, Ont, ferry dock, opposite Ogdensburg, one of thom escaped and ran under the dock.The men who went after it made a startling discovery of the skeleton of a man lying on ono of the timbers, its arms hanging down.Tho skcloton was nude with the exception of an old pair of boots and overahoes on tho feet.The river underneath where the skoloton was discovered was dragged and an old overcoat and other clothing, a silver watch and two gold chains were found.Nothing was found that would lead to the identifieation of the body.Hon J.S.C.Wurtole, the Treasurer of the Province of Quebec, has

the death of Mr Charles Fallon, a young momber of a well-connected and independent family in this city.The deceased, who was 21 years old, had long beon imbuod with deep religious feelings.He was a member of Christ Church cathedral, which his family attended ; he took an active interest in tho Young Men's Christian Association, attending all its meetings and conferences.For the past two or three years those most intimate with him noticod some strango features in his conversation, which led them to think his mind was wavering, but thero were no signs of a developed insanity.About three months since ho became unwell, and remained at home from office business, His family thought it was a mere cold, and would soon pass away under medical treatment.Iowover, ho ud- denly stopped eating, and on bcing quos- tioned on tho eubject ho declared bo had received a vision from the Almighty commanding him not to taste food.Dr Howard, an expert in mental diseases, and chief of tho medical staff of the Longuo Point asylum, was called into consultation with the family.All his advice and reasoning with the ob.stinato maniac bad no effect in getting bim even to take the most delicate nourishment, The Dean of Montreal, who had great in- fluonco with the patient, was absent at first, but whon he returned ho spent a great dex, of his time in trying to bring reason back to the mind of his young friond, but al! was fruitless, for tho deluded patient alwoys had a Scriptural quotation to prove bo Was doing, as he thought, God's service.Ilis family being unwilling to resort to force to compel the young man to resumo eating, his total abstinence continued for 33 days, when the physicians resolved to take extreme measures to administer nourishmont as his end appeared to be near at hand.Whilst arrangements were being made without bis knowledge to make him swallow some food, all of a sudden ho remarked he had received another vision counselling him lo eat.Ilo commenced very sparingly at first, but being carefully treated he seemed to improve until yesterday morning, when an adverse turn camo on, und he died before evening.The case was a very singular one, and has oxcited

and a proud, hard look settled in his eye, which froze the opposition of father and mother, and was Early dimmed by encountering the grieved glance of poor Hepsy Ann Nickerson.Poor Hepsy Ann ! They had talked it all over time and again.At first she was in despair ; but when he laid before her all his darling hopes, and painted for her in such glowing colors the final reward which should come to him and her in return for his struggles ; when she saw him, her love and pride, before her already transfigured by this rare triumph, clothed with honors, his name in all mouths\u2014 dear, loving soul, her heart consented, \u2018ay, if it should break meantime,\u2019 thought she, as she looked proudly on him thru her tears, and said, \u2018Go, in (iod\u2019s name, and Gud bo with you ¥ CHAPTER II, Perhaps we might properly here consider a little whether this young man did well thus to leave father, mother, home, his promised bride, sufficient bread and butter, healthy occupation, all, to attempt life in a new direction.Of course, your man who lives by bread alone will \u2018pooh ! pooh I' all such folly, and tell the young man to let well enough alone.But consider candidly, and decide : should Elka- nah have gone to New York ?On the whole, I think, yes.For, He had a certain talent, and gave fair promise of excellence in his chosen profession.Ho liked it, felt strongly impelled toward it.Let us not yet scrutinize too closely the main impelling forces.Few human actions originate solely in what we try to think the most exalted motives.He would have been discontented for life, had he not had his way.And this should count for something ; for much, indeed.Give our boys liberty to try that to which their nature or fancy strongly drives them ; to burn their fingers, if that seem best.Let him go, then ; and God be with him ! as surely he will be, if the simple, faithful prayers of fair, sad Hepsy Ann are heard.Thus will he, thus only can any, solve that sphinx-riddle of life which is propounded to each passer to-day, as of old in fable-lands ; failing to read which, he dies the death of rusting discontent ; solving whose mysteries, he has revealed to him the deep secret of his life, and sees and knows what best he may do here for himself and the world.But what, where, who, is Elkanah Brewster's world ?While we stand reasoning, he has gone.In New York, his friend Graves assisted him to a place in the studio of an artist whose own works have proved, no less than those of many who have gathered their most precious lessons from him, that ho is truly a master of his art.But what are masters, teachers, to a scholar?It\u2019s very fine boarding at the Spread-Eagle Hotel ; but even after you have feed the waiter, you have to chew your own dinner, and are benefited, not by the amount you pay for it, but only by so much of all that with which the bounteous table is covered as you can thuroly masticate, easily contain, and healthily digest.Elkanah began with the soup, so to speak.He brought all his Cape Cod acuteness of observation to bear on his profession ; lived closely, as well he might ; studied attentively and intelligently ; lost no hints, no precious morsels dropping from the master\u2019s board ; improved slowly but surely.Day by day he gained in that facility of hand, quickness of observation, accuracy of memory, correctness of judgment, patience of detail, felicity of touch, which, united and perfected and honestly directed, we call genius.He was above no drudgery, shirked no difficulties, and labored at the insignificant sketch in hand to-day as tho it were, indeed, his masterpiece, to be hung up beside Raphael's and Titian's; meantime, keeping up poor Hepsy Ann's heart by letters full of a hope bred of his own brave spirit, rather than of any favoring circumstances in his life, and gaining his scant bread-and-butter by various honest drudgeries which I will not here recount.So passed away three years; for the growth of & poor young artist in public avor, and that thing called fame, is fearfully slow.Oftenest he has achieved his best when the firat critic speaks kindly or savagely of him.What, indeed, at best, do those blind leaders but zealously echo a sentiment already in the public heart, which they vainly endeavor to create (out of nothing) by an awe-inspiring formula of big words 1 Men grow so slowly | But then so do oaks ; and little matter, so the growth be straight.Meantime Elkanah was getting, slowly and by hardest labor, to have some true conception of his art and his aims.He became less and less satisfied with his own performances; and, having with much pains and anxious prayers finished his first picture for the Academy, carefully hid it under the bed, and for that year played the part of independent critic at the Exhibition.Wherefrom resulted some increase of knowledge, tho chiefly negative.\u2018er what positive lesson is taught to any by that yearly show of what we flatter ourselves by calling art ?Eight hundred and fifteen new paintings this year, shown by no less than two hundred and eighty-one painters.When you have gone patien ty thru, and looked at every pictare, ses you don\u2019t wish the critios had eyes, and a little common-sense, too.| How many of these two hundred and eighty-one, if they live to be a hundred, | will ever solve their great riddle ?and, once solved, how many would honestly go | back to shoemaking ?Why sheuld they not paint ?Because, | unless some of them are poorer men than I think, that is not the thing they are like to do best ; and a man is put into\u2019 this world, not to do what he may think or hope will most speedily or effectually place him in the list of this world\u2019s illustrious benefactors, but honestly and against all devilish temptations to stick to that thing by which he can best serve and bless\u2014 Whom 7 A city?public ?A king ?No, but that person who is nearest to and most dependent upon him.Look at Charles Lamb\u2014and then at Byron and Shelley.The growth of a poor young artist into public favor is slow enough.But even poor young artists have their temptations.When Elkanah hung his first picture in the Academy rooms, he thought the world must feel the acquisition.Now the world is & notoriously stupid world, and never does its duty ; but kind woman not seldom supplies its omissions.So it happened that, tho the world cared nothing about the picture, Elkanah became at once the centre of admiration to a coterie of young ladies who thought they were appreciating art when they flattered an artist, and who, when they read in the papers the gratifying intelligence, invented by some sanguine critic over a small bottle of champagne cider, that the American people are rapidly growing in true love for the fine arts, blushingly owned to themselves that their virtuous labors in this direction were not going unrewarded.Have you never seen them in the Academy, these dear young ladies, who are so constantly foreseeing new Raphaels, Claudes, and Rembrandts ?Positively, in this year's Exhibition they are better worth study than the paintings.There they run, up and down, critical or enthu- siastical, as the humor strikes : Laura, with big blue eyes and a loud voice, pitying Isidora because she \u2018has never met\u2019 that dear Mr Herkimer, who paints such delicious, dreamy landscapes ; and Emily dragging everybody off to see Mr Smith\u2019s great work, \u2018The Boy and the Windmill, which, so surprising is his facility, he actually painted in less than twelve days! and which \u2018promises so much for his success and the future of American art,\u2019 says this sage young critic, out of whose gray eyes look the garnered experiences of almost eighteen summers, Whoever desiderates cheap praise, let him cultivate a beard and a sleepy look, and hang a picture in the Academy rooms.Elkanah received it, you may be sure.It was thought so romantic that he, a fisher- man\u2014the young ladies sunk the shoemaker, I believe\u2014should be so devoted to art.How splendidly it spoke for our civilization, when even sailors left their vessels, and, abjuring codfish, took to canvas and brushes ! What admirable courage in him, to come here and endeavor to work his way up from the very bottom ! What praiseworthy self-denial \u2014No !! is it really so ?cried Miss Jennie\u2014when he had left behind him a fair young bride ! It was as if the true aim and glory of every man in a civilized community should be to paint pictures.Which has this grain of truth in it, that, in the highest form of human development, I believe every man will be at heart an artist.But then we shall be past picture-painting and exhibitions.Don't you see that, if the fruit be thuroly ripe, it needs no violent pluck - ing ?or that, if a man is really a painter, he will paint, ay, tho he were ten times a shoemaker, and could never, never hope to hang his pictures on the Academy walls, to win cheap wonder from boarding-school misses, or just regard from judicious critics ?Elkanah Brewster came to New York to make his career, to win nothing less than fame and fortune.When he had struggled thru five years of art-study.and was now just beginning to earn a little money, he began also to think that he had somehow counted his chickens before they were hatched\u2014perhaps, indeed, before the eggs were laid.\u2018Good and quickly come seldom together,\u2019 said old Uncle Shuhael.But then & man who has courage commonly has also endurance ; and Elkanah, ardently pursuing from love now what he had first been prompted to by ambition, did not murmur or despair.For, indeed, I must own that this young fellow had worked up to the highest and truest conception of his art, and felt that, tho the laborer is worthy of his hire, unhappy is the man who lowers his art to the level of a trade.In olden times the priests did, indeed, cat of the sacrificial meat ; but we live under a new and higher dispensation.A state?A re- [To BE coNTINUED.} \u2014\u2014\u2014 Many farmers injure their farm implements more by exposure to the weather than by use on the farm.An implement which with good care would last twenty years, will, when exposed to the weather, become useless in five yoars, or oven less, A farm cart which, with good usage, would last almost a lifetime, will last only a few years when exposed to the sun.The False Prophet, who is now carrying fire and sword from Soudan into Egypt, is tho eldest son of Senoussi, the founder of a powerful monastic order in North Africa.he father, on his deathbed, predicted that Islam was to have a now Messiah in the person of his son, Kl Mehdi.Tho sudden appearance of EI Mehdi on the scene, after rving passed some twenty years in mya.terious nolitude and scclasion, and his declaration that the time has come to realize the prediction of his illustrious father, have worked tho natives up to a high pitch of religious excitement and to a determination to fight for the glory of Islam.The False Prophot accordingly finds himself at the bead of an inflamed population, who are reinforced by the cannibal tribes of Central Africa, and who throaten to give tan- other taste of the devastations of oo P NOW OR NEVER.Fall and Winter 1882-83\u2014B8tock Now Complete, | W° offer the largest and best assortment of Tweeds, General Dry Goods, and Groceries to | be found in Huntingdon county.; i Best Scotch, English, and Cavadian TWEEDS, WORSTED COATINGS, OVERCOATINGS, BEAVERS, LADIES\u2019 JACKETINGS, &c.'
