UF APPEAL MONTREAL, January 27 MONETTE (plaintiff below), appellant, and \\ THE ST JEAN BAPTISTE ASSOCIATION OF VAL- LEYFIELD (defendant beluw), respondent.The facts were that the appellant had been expelled from the St Jean Baptiste association\u2019 of Valleyfield, for disorderly conduct at the celebration of the fete of St Jean Baptiste, 25th June, 1881.Several persous had been invited to the celebration, among them Mr Beique,! superintendent of the Beauharnois canal.This gentleman being called upon to address the assembly, the appellant interfered and exclaimed against Mr Beique, erying : \u2018Pas de Beique.A disturbance followed iu which blows were struck, snd the upshot was that the directors of the assuciation expelled the appellant from membership.He brought the present action to be reinstated, and Mr Justice Belanger, at .Beauharuois, maintained the demand, holding \u2018that the expulsion was without cause.The case was taken before the Court of Review, and there the judgment was reversed, and the petition dismissed, Dorion, C.J, giving the judgment of the titled to notice of the charge against him, in order that he might defend himself - It was proved, however, that he was present nt the meeting at which the resolution of expulsion was carried, and spoke on the subject.By this participation he submitted to the authority of the meeting, and waived his right to notice.The judgment of the court of review would, theretore, be confirmed.CANADA.Canada has the longest line of continuous rails running east and west on the continent, This means that we have the biggest railway in the world.Lady Macdonald, wife of the Premier of Canada, writes that she gave up wine drinking on Christmas day, 187, in consequence vf one of her guests saying at the diuner table that \u201cpractical total abstinence was impossible for anyone in society.\u201d Emptying a half\u2019 glassful of sherry into the finger glass she said : \u201cI will try.\u201d Since then,\u201d she writes, \u201cthavk God, 1 have never found any vecessity for wine.\u201d Of all classes in the community, bankers require to be the most cautious.A few days since a portion of a fivedullar bill was presented to the Merchants\u2019 Bank, Montreal, for redemption.Lest the other half of the bill should be similarly presented,the Bauk naturally required some prouf\u2014either an affidavit or statutory de- claration\u2014of what had become of it.The following statutory declaration was obtained and presented to the Bank as conclusive proof of the honesty of the presenter of the ragged frag- went of the bill: 1,\u2014\u2014 \u2014\u2014, of the town of Listowell, Unt, do solemnly declare, 1st.That I occupy tke position of ledger-keeper, in the Bauk of -\u2014 at Listowell, 2ud.That on or about the second day of January, 1886, I did see one bull-terrier pup, named Jencks, tear, mutilate, and doing bis utmost to destruy # $5 bill of the Merchants\u2019 Bank of Canada, hereto annexed.Upon discuvering the said dog mutil- lating and endeavoring (in the innocence of his heart and animal nature) to tear into pieces the said Bank uote.I immediately requested him to discontinue this unique and somewhat extravagent pastime, but not until he had demoiished, swallowed, and completely hidden from view, the date, number, and signature of the President of the said Merchants\u2019 Bank of Canada.And 1 believe and cunscien- tiously state that said dog at that moment had in bis actual internal pussession, the missing portion of the note hereto attached.And l make solemn declaration conacieutivusly believing the same to be true, and by virtue of an Act passed in the 37th year of Her Majo ty's reign, intituled, \u201cAn Act for the suppression.of voluntary and extra-judicial oaths, &c., &a It is needless to say that the bank accepted this most tational solution of the affair and paid the bill.\u2014 Witness, Quebeo, Junuary 26.\u2014A native of Naples, giving the very un-Neapulitan name of (George Rows, was taken before Judge Chauveau at the Quebec Police Court yesterday, charged with baving in his possession counterfeit coin and dies for the manufacture of thexame.A habitant from Char- lesburg, numed Lupoine, received one of the coan- terfeit hulf dollars of which the public have been so frequently warned of late, in exchange tor soma of bis market commodities.Tenderin, it at 8 store he wus promptly informed of its «purious nature and made a complaint to the police.He furnished a description of ibe purty from whom he bud received the counterfeit, and this proved to be an admirable clue to the detection of the supposed uffender.An Jtalian constable of the Ancient capital, named Kowlonaski, thought be recognized in the dexcription a countryman of his own, and after a conference with the detectives, a dexcent upon the residence of the suspect was decided upon.When first seen, Ross relused to give up the key ot his room, trying to throw it away.On seurching the apartment, several spurious fifty cent pieces and the dies in which they were cast, were discovered, the latter being found hidden away in the ashes of the stove, counterfeits are a poor imitation so far as feel, ring and weight are concerned, being evidontly court, said the appellant urged that he was en-!diet of old shoes, bootjucks, lumps of \u201cconl and The - urdays The reason amsigned is a dexire to curtail expenses, and that there is a scarcity of work to do.An explosion in a coal mine nea+ Newbury.West Virginia, on Thuruday caused the dea of 39 miners.The force of the explosion was terrible, A solid heading of coal and slate 80 feet thick was blown out and a mule was hurled through the mine a distance of GO feet.All the men killed were poor, and 22 of them were warried, Kansas City, Mo, January 27.\u2014A report was received here to-night of an engagement that occurred about the 10th inst, in the mountains of Sonora, between à party of Mexicans and a small detachment of Crook's cavalry under Captain Crawford.The parties met while in search of the renegade Apaches, and the Mexi- caus, it seems, fired on Crawford while he was waving a flag of truce, inflicting wounds from which he has since died.The troopers returned the fire, killing the Mexican captain and four of bis men, Sir Roderick Cameron, who lives in New York, \"recently lost bis pet bear.Tho bear Wan on y à cub, but for some time past he has made it lively for the neighbors.lle chewed up every struy cat he came across, and lived principully upon a similar

Anson Arnold, farmer of Hickory County, Ind., were committed to the Jacksonville, Ill, lunatio aeylam on Baturday, raving maniacs.By depriving themselves of Lho neces~aries of life for years they hud all acquired largo fortunes which they were per~uaded to in- vost in 8 mythical Nevada silver mine.On learning thut they hud been awindled they al! became uflicied at once with a vinlent form of insanity.MISCELLANEOUS.A touching incident is related of a recent shipwreck on the New England coast.The captain's wife and children were lost.They had on board a few tame duves.When the body of the wife was found on the shore a duve was on the budy and flew to the house to which the remains of the drowned woman were conveyed and pecking at the window gained admission.The Lancet, an influential medical journal not yet converted to total abstinence, is moved to declare that \u201cit is high time to define what modor- ate drinking is not.It is not drinking in public- houses; it is notdrinking on the sly; it is not drinking early in the day ; it is not drinking by itself at other than meal-Limes ; it is not drinking to procure sleep or to relieve pain.All men, and especially all women, who do such things are not moderate drinkers, and hud better beware.A moderate drinker takes a very limited quantity once or at most twice a day with food\u2014such a quantity as does not make bim stupid or even uleepy ; euch as leaves him cool and unexcited.\u201d From even the Lancel's point of view it will be seen that the present facilities for drinking are enormously beyond the requirements of what it considers true \u201cmoderation.\u201d With much significance it adds: «It is terrible, bowever, to sve how soon a drunkard is made by thoughtless drinking, and how complete is his physical do- struction when he, or perhaps she, comes under medical notice.Juundice, or dropy, or albumi- nari, or delirium tremens may have been reached before friendn, unwilling to admit what they fear, will nend for the medical adviser and make u clean breast of it.Alongside all the teetotslinm that exists there is still an appalling amount of tippling which does not distinctly intoxicate, but saturates the principal organs and destroyes them more quickly than an ocoasionul debauch.Bat, as we bave said, thin iv Dot moderate drinking, it is mortal drinking.\" Ex-Governor Archibald proves that the expulsion of the Acadisns, of which tragedy Longfellow s0 sweetly yet from an historical point of view eo incorrectly sung, was suggested and partially planned by a Massachusetts governof.The operation was carried out by Massnchusetts officers, troops and tran«ports, and was beartily approved by the whole Mussachunetts colony.The Englieh were of cour-e responsible ; bat the suggestion of the expulsion and the carrying of it out, must be laid by our United States neighbors at the doors of their ancestors, not of ours, It in not generally known, but it is nevertheless a fact, that many of the Acadiens found their way back in happier times to the old home, and many of their descendants are living in the vicinity now, Grand P16 is a pleasant spot; but in the old days it had none of the benuties Longfellow describes.How in a new rettiement could the preulisrition of & well-cultivated country have existed ?It has come to be a common practice in Irish hunts to warn the crowd

anyone having & modicum of skill and judgment.Many people have a foolinh horror ot the lancet, and will endure pains for days from a trifling welling rather than submit to its use.It is w common improssion thut a boil should bo allowed to \u201ccome to a head\" betore being opened.[iin a mistake, for then the boil hardly requires opening, as it will burst and discharge of itself.The incinion of the lancet in almost painlexs and affords instantaneous roliof.\u2018The proper time to open a boil or abscoss is when itgives u baggy feeling to the touch.This is an indication thut matter bus formed.As soon an thin pus has vont to escape the pain occasioned by its presence and effort to free itself coaves.If this vent is not made it eats throngh the tinguon lying above it, whioh process is the occasion of the severe pain always exporiencod when a boil is \u201ccoming to » bead.\u201d Whon a gumboil in to bo opened the lancut should be rolied uboût with a hace of soft rag Lill within an

water.Water is the bent dressing for ail wores thut need wtimulating, woothing, or healing action.A fuw drops uf cur- bolio acid should be put in clear, cold wuter, and tho application made with a piece of lint.A piece of oiled wilk in then placed over tho lint to retuin the moisture, and 1s kept if place by a banduge.Water dressing is sometimes used instead of poulticen for swellings which are to be wonthed and reduced, and to wounds after they huvo been properly strapped.Adbesive plaster ought to be cut in stripes instead of being kept in a roll.[tis then ready for ure ut a moment's notine.Before putting iton a wound you must be careful to see that it is perfectly cleun, and no sund, gluss, or uny other substance in it which would cuuse fertoring.A wound «hould never be covered entirely up.No matier what the wizo, use long, narrow stripe of plaster.Warm the buck of the plaster when ready to apply it and place it neroms the wound, leaving a small xpace on each side for the lymph 10 excupe.Bticking pluster has no healing gouli- ties of itself, the benefit derived from it« une being entirely mechanical.Clean cuts are better bound up wiih the blood, for the plaster is aneleas until the bleeding ntop.If the wires have oven white edge« aud but little discharge they do not require stimulating.Ulcerating rores require a stimulant applied with lint in the same manner us tho water drossing.Sach sores ure largely depen- dont, however, on the condition of the constitution for healing.They can only heal when well supplied with flesh forming muterial, und this must be furnished by the blond.\u2018Therofure, it ie necessary to strengthen the bluod with gnod food, not to thin it by various purgatives, À atimulat- ing lotion is made with either powdered alum or

of any kind.be simplest poultices are made of oatmeal, linssed meal, or bread and water.\u2018The last is made by pouring boiling water over pieces of bread, covering up the vus- sel for a «buort time, and then draining off the water.Charcoal in a demirable addition in cure of ulcers, Linseed meul poultices are made hy stirring the meal into boiling water unul thick enough to npresd on the

is not a generally known fuct that 8 muntard plaster applied to the -tomach in cuses of pain from indigestion and the various forms of dynpeptic nilments, such us retching and vomiting, will afford relief, although of no permanent value as a care.Onion poultices are made by mashing up halt ros-ted onions and spreading them on a cloth.Before putting an onion poultice on the chest for cold, the skin should be rabbed with a little warm turpentine.Ao onion poultice should never be applied [to & spot where the skin is broken.A well-made, roperly applied pouliice is a great benefit, but Soenil
