dredging expedition in the Atlantio, under the auspices of the Royal Irish academy, Dublin, returned here lust night after u successful cruise.The expedition was the result of à de- sireon the part of the academy to ascertain the nature of animal life at the bottom of the Atlantic at a depth exceeding 300 fathoms.The discoveries show thut the ocean teems with life at a depth of more than one thousand fathoms.The first soundings were made in 345 fathoms, A beam trawl and a small dredge were sent down, and they brought to the surface a good haul of rare and unknown specimens, in north Intitude 50 deg.52 miu., west longitude 12 deg.2 min.Again they sounded, at a depth of 1,020 fathoms, and succeeded in bringing up a few ounces of globigerina voze.The deep trawl wag then shot with 1,270 fathoms of steel Tops, and on being brought to the surface wan found to contain some interesting creatures, a perfectly black Ish with white eyes being Alter more dredging they closely examined the various specimens secured, which showed there were many strange deep sea fish.In the House of Commons on Friday night Baron Henry do Worws, replying to a question, said that there was no treaty with China giving Chinamen the right to emigrate to the British colonies, nor had England engagod to admit Chinese emigrants.China had simply engaged not to prevent the emigration of Chinese subjects.He was hopeful that the proposed conference to consider the matter would arrive at a decision satislactory to the colonies, while not wounding deeply the susceptibilities of the Chinese.London, June 5.\u2014The Prince and Princess of Wales, having said that it would afford them sincere pleasure to aecept as a silver wedding gift the picture drawn by Me Hume, of Toranto, of

picture is framed in Canadian oak and birdseye maple, and Captain Harston and his wife presented it nn behalf of his brother officers of the Royal Grenadiers.The Prince's private secretary hay written, thanking Captain Harston and wife, acting for the Grenadiers, far the interesting present, assuring them it will be always highly valued.A thunderstorm of great severity broke over Scotland on the 19th ult., and during its progress 5 persons were killed by lightning.In the afternoon two boys, named Charles McDougal and Wm.McFedries, were struck down on Glasgow Green while watching thé

the storm under a clump of trees, were struck bv the lightning.About an hour afterwards they were discovered Tying on the roadside.One of then, George Ingram, a.joiner, was dead, but the other, Wm.Bharpe, also a joiner, recovered.Near Bathgate a lad named Gowan was killed while walking behind hishorseand cart.AtClose- burn, in Dumfries-shire, # farm servant at the plow, and bis two horses,

pleaded guilty and paid bis fi i [ARSE i ' .THE FRENCH PROBLEM.IN the April number uf Le Canada-Français, à magasine conducted by a committee of the laculty of Laval University, Mr Adolphe Poisson has collected some interesting official statistics relating to the growth of the French-Canadian population in the English countios of Quebec.The Ensterm Townships comprise the old counties of Arthabaska, Drummond, Megantie, Richmond, Wolfe, Compton, Sherbrooke, Shefford, Stan- stend, Brome, and Missisquoi.The other English counties in the proviuce are Ottawa, Huntingdon, Ar genteuil and Pontiac.In 1831, the Enstern Townships contuined 37,964 Protestant, i.e., British settlers and 4,242 Roman Catholics, of whom Mr Poisson thinks about 1,200 were Irish Catholics, leaving the number of French-Canadians 8000 or therenbouts.In 1844, account was taken of uationality and the figures stoed 48,308 British and 14,622 French; in INGE, 60,109 British and 84,066 French; in 1861, 76,317 British and 60,319 French; in 1871, 78,591 British and N3,705 French; and in 1881, when the last census was taken, 77,805 British and 109,042 French.In other words, since 1881, the French population in the Fast- ern Townships has increased from 3000 to 109,000, whilst the English-apenking population in the same period haw increased from 88,000 to 78,000, that is, the English have doubled their number, while the French have multiplied over thirty-fold.In the other four English counties, the figures stand thus: In 1861, the British population was 48,650, in 1871, 49,754 ; in 1881, 54,410; whereas the French population in those years was 23,620,33,795 and 46,5615 respectively.So perishes, cries Mr Poisson, the attempt to brenk up the Fronch mass by planting English colonies within it.It will be understood, of course, that the French.Canadians have swamped the English counties in this fashion solely by the force vf their own expansion and without the aid of immigration from old France.In fict, the census of 1881 shows that in the 15 counties in question there were only 571 natives of old France.Mr l\u2019oisson ascribes the success of hikcompatriots in thus overwhelming the English settlements, first, to their fecundity, and, secondly, to their parish system, which keeps them together and enables them to move and bemoved with the precision of a machine, Hedoes not, perhaps, attach sufficient importance to the part played by the tithing power of the church.The right to tithe the produce of Roman Catholic farms, and to bring those farms within the operation of the fabrique- assessment luw, furnishes the church with à direct incentive for getting rid of the English-spenking settler and puttinga habitant in possession of his land.With out doubt this feature of the parish system, which was dwelt upon by Lord Durham in his celebrated report, accounts in some degreo for the very meagre growth of the English-speaking population, The peculiar school law of the provinee has likewise helped in certain causes to dishearten the English settler.InOntario,n Roman Catholic ehild can attend u publicschool without much danger to its religious faith, for aurdystem of education is non-sectarian.In Quebec, on the other hand, the public schools are purely Roman Catholic institutions, as much so as the confessional; so that in those districts where they ure notsufficiently numerous to afford a separate school, the Protestant settlers have simply to choase between she children at bome ur allowipg them to be trained in the croed of the majority, \u2014Torunto Mail, The British have been described as warlike but not militury, and this brief characterization of their qualities asa nation is in the main correct.The British do not believe with the Germans that the main business of life is to drill and be drilled; nor do they think with the French that the roll of the drum is the sweetest of all music.They rate military glory at its proper value, which is simply nothing at all if considered apart from the merits of the cause for which men fight, But us the reign of force at present prevails in Europe and ns treaties have ceased to be of any binding value against the ambitious views of any State strong enough to break them, England has to maintain an army of cone siderable size at a cont of about $92,000,000 a year, independent of the expenditure on account of the British troops in India, which is borne by the Indian Government.The military expenditure of the latter Government is $85,000,000 a year, su that the cost of the defence of the British Empire hy land foroes is $177,000,000 annually, without reckoning what Cann.da and the other self-governing colonies of the Empire pay for militia and defence services.The British isthe only European army that is recruited by voluntary enlistment.All the other great powers of Europecume pel every able-bodied citizen to beeome a soldier hy serving a certain number of years in {ho active army, and the remainder of hw life, or until he has passed th limited age of military service, in the reserve.The term of active service in Russia is six years, in France five, and in Austria, Germany ard Italy three years.The British army, recruited aa it is, cannot claim to, equal in numbers the prodigious forces ramed on the Continent of Europe by universal oonscription, but the British taxpayer, il he pays a high price for a comparatively small force, is not without his consolations When his army expenditures have heen liquidated the matter is at an end, and there is nothing more to pay, but no German or Frenchman can tell what the army is costing his country, The Government expenditures in the army form but a fractional part of the enormous loss which both countries must sustain by the withdrawal of all their young men for 80 many years from the active pursuits of life.Even in tirnes of peace the strain of the army on the resources both of Germany and France is almost too great to be borne, wbile & war, if protracted beyond a few months, would inevite ably ruin one or both of the colghainnts hy destroying all Lusiuess and drying up every source of revenue.The Britisharmyat the present time numbers 210,000 officers and men of all rank, exclusive of 150,000 volunteers and militiamen in England and Scotland, and the reserve of men who have acrved thu short term in the regular army.\u2018The short service system has un- doubtediy been of great benefit to the army in making it popular, bringing into it a better class of recruits and in creating a reserve of trained soldiers.About 40,000 men enlist in the army annually, sixty percent.of them being under twenty years of age.These re« cruits, as regards height and chest measurement, are uot inkerior 10 any that have borne the British flag triumphantly all over the world, and in education they are far superiar.19 a recruit who enlists in the army in illiterate he is obliged to attend school until he is in possession of a fourth clase certificate of education, The great majority of recruits, however, hava a far education, 82 per cent.of the army are included among those who are returned as better educated, while more than 18 per cent.of the men are holders of first or second-class certificates.About 70 per cent, of the army are English, 20 per cent.Irish and 10 per cent.ofch.The Queen has

IRELAND.Tax Linen trade of Ireland is now one of the important industries of the United Kingdom; it is almost entirely carried on in Ulster, and a glance at the list of the members of the * Linen Merchants\u2019 Association uf Belfast\u201d will convince the most aceptionl how thurough- ly the captaine of the industry are English and Scotch.According to the factory inspectors\u2019 reports for 1885, 61,749 persons were employed in the tlax mille and fuctories in Ireland.Of these the greatest number were in county Antrim\u2014the great town of Belfaat bringing up the total; Armagh comes second ; Down third, with Londonderry and Tyrone fur Lobind; and the other counties of Ulster represented to a very mnall extent, The supremacy of Ulster in the linen manufacture is shown iu a very striking way by taking the statistics of the number of spindles and of looms in 1885, Of the totalot 1,213,118 spindles used in the spinning of linen in the United Kingdom, 878,010 were in Ireland, nn aguinst 220,644 in Scotland and 117,559 in England.While of 49,987 power-looma employed in the trade of the United Kingdom 24,800 are in Irish mills.The application of steam power to the woaving of linenmay be said to be the wurk of this goneration of Ulstermen, as in 1850 there were only 160 power-looms in Ireland, although these hid been extensively introduced into Scotland and England.It in pleasant to know that Ulster retains her supremacy for the quality of her linens, ns well is for the quantity produced.But the linen manufacture is also a blessing to the North of Ireland from the stimulus it gives to her agriculture, by encouraging her farmers to grow the flux, which the factories spin and weave into linen.The ucreige under flax haa varied much from yor to year; in 1886 it stood ut 137,565, nlnont entirely in Ulster, and the value of the tlax produced win nearly one mile lion sterling.As four times this quantity is consumed in the United Kingdom, à wide margin for profitable increase is till left to the agriculturists of Ulster.Of the Irish counties, Down heads the list tor the production of thx, with Tyrone and Londonderry an second and third.It is a erop which seourges the ground, nnd requires good furming, but in successful years it is exe coedingly profitable.In other commerciul pursuits besides the staple industry of Ulster, the descendants of the English and Seottish settlers have shown themmelves worthy of the stock from which they spring; and have made Ulster a atriking contrast from its wealth and prosperity to the other provinces of Ireland.The Ulstermen of today, owing probably to the hard fate with fortune which they have fought for two centuries, do not excel in literature, or poetry, or the fine arts.But in the prac- tien] pursuits of life they have made their mark, and hold an exceedingly honorable position.To the share which the men of the North of Ireland had in building up the United Ktates, Americans hive ever been ready to bear grateful testimony.The Presbyterinn emigrants were among the stoutest soldiers who fought against the British in the War of Independeneo; dee scendants of Ulstermen have filled the President's chair in the persons of Jumes Munroe, James Knox Polk, John C.Calhoun, and James Buchanan; Stonewall Jackson came of the same blood ; and A.T.Stewart who founded the greatest hiislness in the world, wis Irom county Down.Of the same blood were three men who have in a notable way translated neienas into practice\u2014Fulton, one of the inventor of steam navi- gution; Morse, whose nme in

but in later formations the determining cause of the accumu- Intions of such beds is the partial deoxi- dation and solution of the peroxide of iron by the agency of organic matter.Besides this, certain forms known as Evzoon Canadense have been recognized in the Laurentian limestones, which indicate the presence at least of one of the lower types of marine animals.Where imal life is, we may fairly infer the existence of vegetable life as well, since the plantis the unly producer of food for the animal.\u2014Ser Willigm Dawson, in Popular Scienee Monthly.German Watches.WHAT AN IMPORTER KNOWS ABOUT THEM AND THEIR MANUFACTURE, A watch importer: * You need not be at all surprised if the Swiss and American watch manufacturers soon have formidable rivals in Germany, for our friends there are beginning to go into that business, and, as you know, they are aggressive in matters of trade, and of late years havebeen very successful in their now enterprises.\u2018Early this year a watch factory giving employment to thirty hands was established at Pfetterhausen, and I hear it has already been so successful that it is shortly to be enlarged to give employment to 100 additional workmen.It is understood that the German Government views with leasure the catablishment of this new industry and will take steps tv foster and encourage it, \u2018The first watch factory in Germany?Well, about that there seems to be some dffference of opinion.A statement was extensively published by the German ress to the effect that this was the first actory; but I now see this contradicted by n newspaper which states that as long ago'ss 1856 y watch factory employing 360 hands was established at Lohn, in Silesia.It Was encouraged by the Prussian Government, which guve it both moral and financial support.The factory is said to be still in existence, but no longer at Lohn, it having been moved to Silbérberg, wheiv ip produces watches of all descriptions, from unronumeters own to the commonest cylinder escapements: The same paper is authority for the statement that there has been a watch factory at Glashutte, noar Dresden, for a number of years past, \u2018Which, however, produces pnly the finest and most expensive walches, \u2018From time to time ineffsctual attempts have been made to establish factories at Schwenningen, Trigberg, Stein-sur-Rhine and elsewhere.Fur years a horological school has been successfully conducted at Furtwscycn, in the Black Forest.'\u2014 Jerwelers\u201d Weekly.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Mayes In Turkey.WHAT THEY ARE WORTH AND HOW THEY ABE TREATED BY THEIR OWNERS, According to Mr Cox, \u2018there is scarcé- ly a family in \u2018Turkey, which has the means, that does not posacss a number of \u2018women and girl slaves, black and -whité, The black are from Central Africa and Nubia; the white are Circassians sold by their parents.\u2019 Fhe price of the femalo slaves varies with their pretensions\u2019 to good looks, the comely ones being to some extent educated and taught to sing, dance and make themselves agreeable.We learn that a \u2018girl under 10 will bring $100, a maiden between 12 and 16 if she ke attractive and can play upon the zith- \u2018er, from 83.300 to 85,000.If the youn, woman be a blonde, with black eycs an otherwise of rare heatity, she may brin m $4,000 to 88,000.An amateur will y douils that for a choice specimen, well educated in Erenchand other graces.But Mr.Cox adds that\u2019 \u2018this tariff by no means ajy.ligs to the slaves from Africa the depota for whom ave in Scytari and in the villages on the Dosporus, The black male slave will bring $90, the black maiden 876.and a eunuch 8400.\u2019 We azo azrured by the author that \u2018the slave A Cariegs lagen In the Court of the Inner Pom London, after the Chancery Inns tablished, it waa resolved to set up a handsome sun-dial.It was con for an put up;

heroes of fiction, or deified saints and philosophers, and each one carries to the Chinese mind its peculiar traditional or romantic association.There is very little picturesque scene tn China, and the few hills, streams an valleys which lovers of natural beauty have discovered, have done duty in decoration for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years.But these outlines, made familiar by repetition, have a different meaning when the fact is explained that the skilful Chinese landscape gardeners have made innumerable miniature eopies of these few bits of scenery in the court yards which are enclosed by the inner walls of all thé houses of the better sort.These courts, a few feet in extent, oblong or square, are laid out in little mountain sanges, showing caverns and lakes, trails wd ravinds, on every side.\u2014 Wide Awake, \u201cA Brief Betrothal, WHY DEAR ALBERT SPURNED THE LOVE OF HIS ADORABLE DUCKY DARLING.They were in all the blissful transports of a couple who had been engaged three hours anda half.It was verging on to midnight, but he manifested uo sign of going, and she trewbled lest he should du 80.Buddenly he drew a pencil from his pocket, tore a blank loué from his note ouk and said: \u2018Now, my ownlittle lovey dovey, let's make a diagram of the little home we will have.\u2019 \u2018Oh, yes let's du.\u2019 she snid, ecstatically fOur home!

sad that during the past 3 years policy-holders of three thousand doffars have paid twenty dollars on the Mutyaf plan, whije e \u2018charge by à stock Company has been thirty dollars making a difference of ten dojlars,cquivalen to fifty per cent, in favor of the Mutual, Parties wishing to insure thelr property are requested to apply to the Agent, Anpnew SonenviLte, Secy.Hantiogdon, March

$rvo of approved securities fur every $100 of lise bilities as calculated Ly government.3.Bo- cause it employs 5 inspectors for the inapre- tion and adjustment of losses, which enables it to adjust and pay all losses within from » week to a fortnight of the dats of the fire, \u2014 the usual 6 days clause being waived.3.Because it lusues a Blanket Policy covering the conteuts of Barus and Stables in a block, that is to say, providing & farmer jusures ju another compeny,one that names the amount on each article on the Specific Plan, ny $200 he oun produce, $300 un implements, $400 ov stock, as the case may be, and a bons should take place when that farmer fils his Lstu to the amount of $1000 cn implements and produce,aud If be succeeds in saving the Imple- munis, ull he could claim would be the $100 on the produce, no mutter If he loses $1000 on produce.Now, on the Block Plan, as ibe Glasgow and Londop Jnsurapce Company insur their policies agalust lou gr dpmuge by fire vr lightuing, ne matter what the build- jug coutains at to time of the lors, ro lung ax it consiste of farm produce ge rally, vis.: | Mvertock spd farming implements, including cartlages aud barney,

the baro, aud if the sfock should In in the | pastare nt the time of the loss, ag stated in the Specifie Plan, and the fumer ace to the | amount vi $300 on produce, or impl-meuts, | carriages,
