it is as plain and as true as that two and two make four, Neglect to purchase those lots wiil evince a lamentable want of intelll- gence, a positive dislike to make and save money, where there 13 aot the shadow of à chance to lose.Young men should bear partioularly in mind that an effort to become proprietors is the first groat stop towards establishing a name and credit- showing that thoy intend to sow other seeds than wild oats.The place 18 fast becoming a very important suburb ;

myself and some others who are not intuitively cognizant of our municipal regulations, beyond the confines of Common and Statute Law, answers to the following queries, especially by Ald.Hood, would be thankfully read, and may be the happy means of averting any contrefemps such as the one now under investigation: ; 1.If a gentleman happens to be outside his house after a certain bour in the evening, does that fact alone render him liable to arrest and incarceration, and, if so, from what hour ig he so liable?(In Ireland a century ago the hour was seven, during the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act only.) 2.If a gentleman in the most amiable manner address a policeman by the familiar name of \u2018\u201c bobby,\u201d universally used in England, shall he be at the noble officer\u2019s mercy, as to passing a night in the cells?3.If a gentleman be brought to the station\u2014say, aocused of insulting the police, for this seems to be the most heinous crime in the catalogue, judging by punishment\u2014shall he be cast into a felon\u2019s cell, or worse, no matter what amount of bail he may offer, and rigorously exoluded from all communication with friends or counsel ?From the vigorous argument of Ald.Hood, as reported yesterday, I am apprehensive of affirmative answers, but a certain knowledge on these points will lead one to shape his conduct in such a way as to avoid acquaintance with the swarming colonists of the Central cells, JUSTICE, THE LACROSSE CHAMPIONSHIP.To the Editor of the STAR : SIR,\u2014The Montreal Lacrosse Club evidently do not feel satisfied with their defeat in Toronto, and especially the reporter of the Gazette, who is a member of the Montreal Lacrosse Club, is not satisfied.He has been throwing out all kinds of mean insinuations in regard to the Toronto Club\u2019s unfairness, &c.Now, the Toronto Club has always, in my mind, had the reputation of being composed of gentlemen, holding just as good positions in society and business as the Montreal Club, and none of ug would think of charging the Montreal Club with a mean act, The Gazette reporter thinks the Toronto Club are afraid to meet the Montreal Club on their own ground ; now such is not the fact, They would only be too glad to have a friendly game in Montreal, providing their expenses or half the gate money were guaran: them ; and this would be only fair, when you take into consideration that they would only come to satisfy the Montreal Lacrosse Club, The Toronto Club are now making arrangements to play another match with the Shamrock Club in Toronto, which shows that they are not afraid to meet any team in Canada, the Shamrocks being a far more formidable team than the Montreal, The Montreal should have a match with the Shamrocks this fall to prove the above.The following appeared in the Toronto Telegram : ¢¢ It is not easy to be well-beaten and be thankful.The lacrosse match on Saturday presented no great mystery as to the de- eat.A.telegram from Montreal explains the mystery, The explanations are as 2 | numerous and as satisfactory as the darkey he coroner\u2019s verdict :\u2014¢ The deceased came to his death by a blow from a crow-bar, and he was thrown overboard and was drowned, and, finally, was washed up ashore and frozen to death.\u2019\u2014The Montreal lost the game because : 1st, the Toronto field is narrow ; 2nd, the Toron- tos are good checkers 3 3rd, the Montreal- ers were too light ; 4th, Bowie was ill; 5th, Elliott did not play as well as Bowie would have done, if he had beenthere, and had piayed better than Elliott ; 6th, the Montrealets have played less with each other than formerly.Now, this isall very clever.The one real, simple reason of the defeat of the Montrealers is that the To- rontos are up, and down, and all the way round, the best players,\u201d The above is a very good reply to the Gazette's report of the match, and the question may be pertinently asked: If the Montreal team p ayed so well ag the Gazette makes out, why didn\u2019t they win ?Yours truly, FAIR Pray.OUR TABLE.Best TmoueuTs AND Discourses.By C.Moody.Toronto : J.B., Ma- gurn.* Montreal : Dawson Bros.This is a neatly got up

taken from \u2018\u2018 Annals of our Time,\u201d which wettles the controversy about the Road murder case: 25th April, 1865, Great excitement caused in London by a statement in the evening papers that the mystery of the Road murder was at length solved, and that Miss Constance Kent had given herself up as the murderess, Short- before four o\u2019clock, two inspectors con- uoted the prisoner to the private room of Sir Thomas Henry, Bow street.Miss Kent was attired in deep mourning and wore a thick veil, which almost screened her face from view.She was said to be slenderer and much taller than when formerly in custody, She was attended by the Lady Superior of St.Mary's Hospital, Brighton, in which establishment she had been * a visitor\u201d during the last two years, and\" by the Reverend A.D.Wagner, of St.Paul\u2019s, Brighton, to whom she had confessed her guilt.He detailed the circumstances under which the confession was made, and, in answer to questions put in various forms, said the act was entirely spontaneous on her part.He held out no inducement io her, and was merely a passive agent in the matter, He understood it not as a private, but an open public confession.Again warned by the presiding magistrate as to the serious character of the step she was taking, Miss Kent handed to the Clerk a written confession :\u2014* I, Constance Emilie Kent, alone and unaided, on the night of the 29th June, murdered, at Road Hill House, \u2018Wiltshire, one Francis Saville Kent, Before the act was done, no one knew of my intention, nor afterwards of my guilt.No one assisted me in the crime, nor in the evasion of discovery.\u201d She spoke firmly, though sadly, and was accommodated with a seat during the enquiry.She was then given into the custody of an In: spector, who, in company with Mr, Wagner and Miss Graem, conveyed her to Trowbridge for examination by the Wilts magistrates, and by whom she was ultimately commit ed for trial.23rd August, 1865.\u2014Sentence of death was passed upon Mies Kent, but after- Yards commuted to penal servitude for e, S\u2019POSIN\u2019.One of Max Adeler\u2019s characters enters a lawyer's office, and says: \u2018\u2018I called in, Judge, to get your opinion about a little point of law.S\u2019posin\u2019 you lived nexb door to a man named Johnson.And s\u2019posin\u2019 you was to say to Johnson that a splendid illustration of the superiority of the human intellect was to be found in the power of the human eye to restrain the ferocity of a wild animal.And s\u2019posin\u2019 Johnson was to remark that that was all bosh, and you should declare that you could hold the savagest beast that wag ever born if you could once fix your gaze on him.Well, then, s\u2019posin Johnson was to say he'd bet a hundred dollars he could bring a tame animal that you couldn't hold with your eye, and you was to take him up on it, and Johnson was to ask you to come down to his place to settle the bet.You'd go, we'll say, and Johnson\u2019d introduce a dog bigger\u2019n any four decent dogs ought to be, and sick him on you, and he\u2019d come at you like a 16-inch shell out of a howitzer, and you'd ge\u2019 skeery about it, and try to hold the dog with your eye, and couldn\u2019t, And #\u2019posin\u2019 you\u2019d suddenly conclude that maybe your kind of an eye wasn\u2019t calculated to hold that kind

Stax, delivered regularly at their homes by careful newsboys, will please send us their name and address, THE GREAT GALE foretold by the New York Herald came at last, but a little later than the day set for it.The damage effected in its circuit has been very large, and its violence was almost unprecedented.The Herald was the butt of a good deal of small wit on the failure of the storm to come to time, but the heavily losses it did entail when it broke over the country, will, we think convince the skeptical that there is something in meteorology after all Ix ALL PROBABILITY England will be forced into a war that will bring no glory, and very little satisfaction, by the conduct of the King of Dahomey.This potentate refuges absolutely to pay the fine imposed upon him, and enraged at the blockade of Whyddah, he threatens to invade Lagos, and murder every white man he can reach, Should he carry out his threat war will be inevitable, and as the King seems intent upon resisting to the bitter end, it will be a rather unfortunate undertaking for him, The worst of it is that it is in his power to vieit his wrath upon a great many Europeans and their innocent workpeople before a sufficient force can be brought to bear to effectually teach him how dangerous a thing it is to play with fire.Intelligence from Commander Howell is, meanwhile, being very anxiously looked for in England.Press AND PLATFORM REFORM,\u2014 When Mr, Mackenzie saïd in his speech at Brant- ford, \u2018\u2018It is time this doctrine of vituperation and blackguardism should end,\u2019 he said a good thing.He echoed completely the sentiments of decent people who have become thoroughly disgusted at the mud throwing which is the main characteristic of party warfare now-a-days, and, having thus posed himself as the leader of a most desirable reformatory movement, he will be expected to exercise, by his example, a salutary influence upon his followers in restraining their tongues and their pens within the bounds of the decorum which should mark discussions between gentlemen, Dolitical controversy has degenerated into what is little better than the exchange of slang between corner idlers, and the party which will attempt and carry out a change for the better, will earn the thanks of all respectable people, Let Mr.Mackenzie begin at once and put his precepts into practice, remembering always that reform, like charity, begins a$ home, He is not himself free altogether irom blame, and the manifestation on his part cf a change of heart will be warmly welcomed, If he can induce his party to lead the way, there is little danger but that Lis opponents will give up their share of the reproach which hasfallen upon the political press and platform, The task is by no means an easy one, for habit becomes second nature, but it is not too grave a one for the Premier to undertake, sud we hope he will enter upon it in earnest.PUERILE APOLOGISTS.\u2014We hate to keep digging at the Government organs which are endeavoring to justify the Anglin, Huntington and Vail printing iniquities, but when they come forward with the grossest puerilities, and thrust them upon the public as ample reasons for the perpetration of jobs, we are obliged to speak out on behalf of the people who have to pay the piper.It is not denied by the Ministerial press that the contracts in which Ministers and Liberal-members are interested, were really granted; the boldest defence made is that which appeared in the editorial columns of the Globc\u2014ihey were granted \u2018\u2018by inadvertance,\u201d but this acknowledgment of inadvertance is an actual confession of guilt, and it is now too late for the satellites to attempt to defend the fault which the central luminary hag already admitted, It is really distressing to observe journals, claiming to be respectable, arguing that, because, under the head of \u201cImmigration Services,\u201d copies of the Mail, to the amount of $5.82, and of the Gazette, to the amount of $5.66, were purchased by the last Government, and $269 worth of print- iug was done at the office of the Ottawa Citizen, the present Government are justified in awarding the Speaker printing contracts to the extent of $9,009, to the printing company in which the Minister of Militia and the member for Halifax is interested to the amount of $10,000, and to the Herald Company in which the Postmaster-General and a Liberal Senator are interested to an extent not yet precised, but which must be rather heavy.It is impossible to base upon au expenditure, justifiable enough, of $10.98, an issue of profitable jobs to the tune of £25,000.$1,200 was expended upon copies of the Weekly Globe for circulation in England for emigration purposes, the organs ought to sing very small.The fact of the matter is simply this:\u2014The printing jobs cannot be defended, and it is useless for the Liberal prints to attempt to justify the action of the Government by citing five dollar accounts of the Mail and the Gazette of 1873.This Government entered into power promising an absolute and radical reform in the administration of public affairs, and to come forward now, demanding confidence be.«use their faults are only a little worse t ian those of their predecessors, is simply absurd.If they would retain a hold upon the affections of the people who voted them into power they must demonstrate p airly that they have done, and are about to do, better things for the people than there whom they displaced.But they \u201c have not done so ; all they claim is to be ne blacker than those who went before them, Where is the boasted reform that was to bring about a golden age in Conadian itics?Where is the cleaning out of iggan stable that was promised in hetoric when tho present Opposition benches?of the standard In view of the fact that some.of public morality,\u201d and \u2018\u2018the putting into practice of such principles as honest men might support?\u201d We fear our Ministerial friends have seriously gone back upon the promises of their days of immaturity, All they claim, and all it would appear that they ever intend to claim, is that they are no worse than their opponents, It is a rather bitter reflection that for this barren fruit the people of Canada agreed to undergo the consequences of a general election, and to run the risk of experiencing the effects of the crotct ets of Free Traders.CITY NEWS.\u2014 Temperance entertainment this evening at the Inspector street Church.\u2014 Eighteen applicants for protection

opened the meeting with prayer, after which a hymn, \u201cThe Cross of Jesus,\u201d was sung, the audience joining in it.The Chairman then said that he was pleased to be able to announce that the band of the Cadets would perform.It was astonishing, he remarked, what progress this band had made since the last meeting, when, ag they all knew, it had rendered good service.The band then favored the audience with some excellent music, after which Mr.Hood recited \u2018The Old Farm Gate.\u201d Mrs.Murphy followed with a song, and, in answer toan encore, gave an Irish ballad.Mr.Coates sang the \u2018\u2018 Life Boat\u201d in a very powerful manner, and followed it with a plaintive melody.Tae band then closed the first part «f the musical programme with a selection, including \u2018Scenes which are Brightest,\u201d \u201cWhen you and I were young, Maggie.\u201d A collection in aid of the school having been taken up, The Rev, James Carmichael came forward, and, referring to the Home at La- chine, raid it had been started in good faith, and those who were brought in contact with the sad and wretched cases of disease and poverty saw the benefits of the Home ; and from the number who had gone out cured, they had reason to congratulate themselves and thank God for their success, The expenses of the Home were great and would require aid.Prac- lically, St.George\u2019s Temperance Home did not now exist ; it would in future be called the Montreal Temperance Home ; ard he could say that if it had not been as successful as could be desired, it was the first work that St George's Church had undertaken which it had not thoroughly carried out.This work was the child of St.George\u2019s Church, ani it Was natural that the Church should kee the lead in its administration as long a possible; but if the Homehad continnad i the position in which it now was, it woal have been buried by the Church that gav it birth.The work of re-organizing th Home had been placed in the bands n competent and zealous gentlemen, snd i they could not succeed, then, indeed, n ore could in Montreal.Many of thes gentlemen bad subscribed largely, and when they saw that the Home was about to fall, they came to its rescue.It was pro- pesed to give four national entertaiuments in the Rink\u2014Scotch, English, American and Irish\u2014which he hoped would enable them to pay off the debts, and then ths work would be pushed forward on a larger scale, Everyone could contribute their aid ; they could talk it up, if nothinz mora.The speaker then alluded to the attempt which had been made to establish a barroom in the Academy of Music.Ho» thanked those who had spoken on that cccagion, Speaking of the D.inkin Act, he said he could speak from personal oh- servation of its benaficial effect; and, aa far as he understood it, it gave the majority, where it was in operation, the choice of having liquor sold in their village or county, or of forbidding its sale altogether, He had reslded in Kuowlton, where the Dunkin Act was in force, and in a hotel containing forty regular and many transient boarders of both sexes he had never seen a case of drunk- enness\u2014never heard of a case of a man or beast being ill-treated ; while wherever he went out of this county he saw great evidences of the evils of intemperance, He did not go in for legislation, at least in connection with this society ; if a majority in a ward of this city could prevent the establishment of grog-shops, he would go himself and canvass to séciire thaterd.(Applauée), If the law allowed us to have the same privilege in this city as they bave in the county before mentioned, it would be the greatest of blessings, A great deal depended on his bearers ; it was not the band that brought them there; it war not the speeches; it was not the singing.He would have them come and bring their friends to sign the pledge, He closed his remarks with a blessing, Mrs, Murphy then sang a touching melody; Mr, Hood closing with a recitation, \u201cModern Logie,\u201d The Rev.Mr.Carmichael then announe- ed that the meetings would be continued every fortnight, adding that Mr.Field, photographer, corner of Craig and Bleury streets, would devote his receipts on the 25th inst.for the benefit of the Home, and expressed the hope that all present would go and get their photographs taken on that day.The band then played the National Anthem, and the meeting broke up.NOON TELEGRAMS.FATHER PornT, September 19, Cloudy and cold ; light N.E.wind.SS, \u201c* Flamboro \u201d inward 6 30 p.m.yesterday, Fox River,

assurance institution, viz, the \u2018Canada Ife,\u201d i.position to publish rates uns Las *\u201c Minimum\u201d system which, from their extremely low quotations, must necessarily excite the attention of the more prudent portion of the community.The principle upon which the system referred to is based is a reduction of the rates charged for assurance by an immediate allowance of future profits, and which, for many years past, has been successfully practiced by one of the soundest Scotch offices We strongly advise all thoss young men who, from the pressure of the times, have as yet been unable to take out a policy on their Jives for the benefit of their families to study well the miai- mum rates contained in the advertisement which they will find in another columa of this journal, for, in joining a first class Canadian institution such as the \u2018\u2018 Canada Lite\u201d undoubtedly is, they have not only got security for their money, but add to the wealth of the country, by reason of the Company\u2019s funds being invested here.We beartily wish the \u2018\u2018 minimum system \u201d the success it merits.Oxx of the most curious phenomena of the proprietary medicine trade of the present day is the steady and unprecedented growth of the popularity of Gray\u201ds Syrup of Red Spruce gum.This remedy was a few yeurs ago almost unknown outside of Jontreal, to-day its fame is world-wide.The consumption of the article is something enormous, and the facilities of the proprietors have been taxed to their utmost to meet the demand, and this only shortly after they had come into the ownership of the trade-mark.They are now making large shipments to Australia, to the Western Territories of the American * Union, to our own North-west country, and to England.From time immemorial it has been held that pine forests exercise | a curative effect in lang diseases, and we lall know how the aborigines were accustomed to resort to spruce balsam for relief, The concentration of the qualities of a natural cure in compact and agreeable shape cannot fail to command attention and trial, aud when experience proves its efficacy, to establish for it a reputation and popularity thit grows with its use.At the present time Gray's Syrup of Red Spruce Gum has become a standard remedy to be found in every drug store in the country, and its maau- facture an important interest in the eom- munity.If you havea cold, or any throat affection, try it and be convinced.MORNING MONEY MARKET NEW YORK, Sept.19, 10 a.m, Gold.1097 @ 00 Sterling Exchange.483% @ 00

paying teller of the Consolidated Bank, there were geveral errors of fact.It was stated that Mr, J.C.Ritchie had only lately ceased to do business in the bank where the large check of Messrs, R.& J.Moat was pald, The contrary is the case, as Mr.Ritchie , had changed his account to the Metropolitan Bank iully goo years ago.The boy | also to whom so large an amount of money waspaid, without question, bythe teller was entirely unknown tq him, and had never been sent to the Consolidated Bank on any former occasion to get a check cashed, which also shows the carelessness, or, perhaps, we should rather say, thought.essness of the teller.It is a mere assumption to allege that brokers and others would be indignant at tellers declining to pay checks when presented by boys.There is no sensible or prndent man of business, be he broker or merchant, who would find fault with a bank official for taklng ordinzry precautions to prevent the abstraction of their customers\u2019 money.Even the teller did know the endorser\u2019 signature it was not sufficient reason for his paying so large a sum to a mere lad.Had ordinary intelligence been cised, the teller might have known broker was not likely to want so sum of money on the eve of three on the last day of the month, when all business men are depositing their last dollar to make up balances.Our correspondent may not see any sufficient reason to refuse to pay the check under the circumstances, but to most men, not blinded by personal friendship, there was abundant reason for doing so.Besides, the fact of the boy running off in great haste, and leaving some of the money on the counter behind, was enough to excite grave suspi- teller should have sent to Mr, Ritchie at once to ascertain how matters stood.We agree with our correspondent that Mr.Ritchie is not free from blame in entrusting so much money to the care of a youth who had only been four months in his service, but in that respect he has not been different from other mercantile men, whose recklessness have often cost them very dearly in having their confidence abused.\u2018We are glad to hear that precautions are now universally taken to stamp all checks \u201c\u2018for deposit\u201d before they are sent to the bauk, This is the \u2018\u2018 moral\u201d arising out of the too serious and regrettable loss of a very worthy citizen.DOMINION BUILDING SOCIETY, LOSSES AND GROSS IT REGULARITIES \u2014LEGAL PROVEEDINGS TO BE TAKEN AGAINST THE DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS, A meeting of the shareholders was held at 505 Craig street last night, to take the affairs of the society into consideration.Mr.Alderic Ouimet, M.P.P,, presided, and Mr.J.B.Lafleur acted as Secretary.The report, which is the result of an investigation, was submitted, by which it appears that the losses will probably reach $116,000.The direct causes of this loss were loans on insufficient security, the application of the funds of the society to speculation on appropriations, the mismanagement of the late Secretary- Treasurer in his double capacity of advocate and secretary, and lastly the neglect of duties devolving on the Board ot Directors, It appears that the deeds of properties, on which money was loaned, were not properly examined.In 1874 and 1875 the late Secretary-Treasurer borrowed from the Board of Directors $33,000 on inadequate and unacceptable securities, He neither signed the bond deed for those loans nor furnished the titles of his properties, certificates of search or valuation ; yet he daily took the funds of the society to an amount considerably exceeding what was allowed him.Finally, in September last, he consented to give a deed of transfer, bond and security.His own account amounts at the present time to over $55,- 000, representing money borrowed, interest and costs ; and the moneys borrowed by him, conjointly with others, amounted to the further sum of $50,000, capital and arrears, the society will have to make provision for a payment of $23,869, which may cause some embarrassment, while the amount now payable to the Society is $61,490, with $43,115 accruing between 1st August and 1st February, or a total of $104,605, The report recommends that the capital paid up on appropriation shares be converted into permanent stock, instalments on appropriations to be continued to 1st May next, to enable the Society to off liabilities, after which time share- Rolders would be entitled to half-yearly dividends on permanent stock so converted.Mr.Quinn then entered into an explanation, stating that the book-keeper, whose name was Quinn also, but who was not related to him in any way, had spent ten times more money than he (the speaker) had done.When he was informed there was a deficit he had given a uarantee mortgage for $40,000.The ok-keeper had drawn £16,000 in fourteen months, and a curious thing was that all the memoranda of the book-keeper had been made away with, and yet he (the speaker) was charged with malversation, He admitted he had not been careful enough as to the value of properties, and he helieved the Directors had lent money on what proved to be too light valuations.He had been told that if he would give $25,000 additional security the report would, though in type, be suppressed.The book-keeper had given $1,500 security.The new directors should make the book-keeper, Quinn, disgorge.Mr.C.E.been robbed ; and he asked that legal proceedings beinstituted against the parties responsible for these losses; neither the directors nor Mr, Quinn were excusable.On motion of Mr, Kennedy it was then resolved that legal proceedings, criminal or civil, be taken against the directors and officers of the society.The report was adopted and the meeting adjourned.THR

reported a defalcation of $1,000 in the money received by Mr, L.W, Tessier, the accountant in the Police Department, for the month of August, The unfortunate accused is laboring under mental derangement at present, and no communication is allowed with him, So far as we can learn, the Corporation have no security from their employers, with the exception of heads of departments, in the rsons of the City Treasurer and Auditor.Khe Finance Committee has passed a resolution to require all their subordinates who have the receipt or payment of money to furnish proper security, On Mr.Tessier\u2019s recovery he may be able to account for the money, and it is scarcely fair to pass a severe judgment on him at present, His books are all correct, we are assured, but the money is short to the extent stated.MEETING OF CITY COUNCIL Ald, Foster in the chair, PETITIONS, The following petitions were presented : \u2014Julien Picard, for a situation; E.E, Jolicceur, to be appointed clerk of the Hay Market ; widow of late Policeman Carter, for a gratuity.A letter from L.Bernier & Co., offering to sell brick for the Craig street sewer.Also, a letter from the Citizens\u2019 Committee submitting two resolutions adopted by the Committee, respecting the collection of arrears of taxes, The resolutions recommended that all items in dispute be adjudicated upon with as little delay as possible ; also, that in view of the large amount of arrears of water taxes, which there is reason to fear cannot be collected, that stringent measures should be adopted to enforce payment of the rates, and the present system of collecting in advance should be strictly adhered to, THE FINANCE COMMITTEE, This Committee innovated on a very wholesome rule yesterday, and sat with closed doors, From our knowledge of the men who compose the Committee, [and especially the Chairman, who believes panine += strongly in keeping tie tax-payers au courant with the disposal of their money, we have no fear of the secret system being again permanently introduced.Itis, besides, wholly unnecessary to exclude the press, as it always accedes to the request of any Committee not topublishanything that might be prejudicial to thepublic interests, whilst the presence of reporters exercises a wholesome restraint on those who are extravagantly inclined.No one knows better than the Chairman of the Finance Committee that his exertions to prevent waste: ful expenditure would often have been rendered nugatory but for the aid given him by the press.We have, therefore, no fear that in future the meetings will ba beld with closed doors.No such retro- rade movement can no be introduced.The meeting yesterday was chieny to ratify the action regarding the vote of §5,- 000 for the St.Hyacinthe sufferers, Ths money will be paid from the reserve fund.A CASE OF ARSON.THE INVESTIGATION TO-DAY, Peter McCullough, the man accused of getting fire to a dwelling-house, at the corner of Amherst and Lagauchetiere streets, was brought before Mr, Austin, Fire Commissioner, this afternoon, and depositions taken against him, The prisoner is about 40 years of age, wears a black moustache, stands erect, and has something of a military air.He is by occupation a beer-driver, and about a fortnight ago his wife left him, taking with her their three children, The first witness examined was his wife Annie McCullough, who deposed: Hard been living with her mother and three children in Mr, Pell\u2019s house for two weeks, having left her husband; at about half past 10 o\u2019clock last night witness was in the house with four others\u2014Mr.and Mrs, McGillis and Miss Daley; the children the room, coming from the outside; on looking out, Mr.McGillis having opened the door, found a plece of paper saturated with coal oil burning close to the door; swore the door was on fire; yesterday her husband was at the house where she resides ; he was not sober then ; he said he would fix her if she did not return the goods ; he spoke about some things the witness took out of the house; saw pri- soner again after the alarm of fire at his own place in Papineau square ; suspected The City Council met at 3:30 0clock, were in bed ; all at once saw a light in him 88 suen as witness found fire at the | door ; before he was arrested he said he bad not been In Amherst street tht night; suspected nobody else of setting fire to the place, The next witness was the proprietor of the house, George Pell, trader, who deposed: An attempt was made to burn his house last night about half-past ten ; was in the house at the time ; was in his own apartment ; ancther part of the house is rented to Mrs, McKillear, who occupied it with her daughter, Mrs, McCullough, and her three children ; witness had found this door singed or charred by fire; Mr, MeGillis, who also lives in the house, saw pieces of paper saturated with coal oil at the door burning, so he told me ; witness saw no one light this fire ; was asleep at the time; a Mr.Maxwell, who also lives in the house, awakened witness ; the house is built of wood.John McGillis was next examined, his testimony corroborating that of the previous witnesses.The examination being concluded, Mr.Austin, the Fire Commissioner, committed the accused to take his trial at the ensuing term of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench.FINANCIAL.STAR

Helen was amoag the first who called upen Lester Raymond to explain the remarkable affair which had had so unpleas- | ant a termination for him, Her inguiriee were dictated by the most intense desire to asceztain if her suspicions were correct, but her acting was a masterpiece : it had the air of a very natural curiosity only.The ordeal, however, was yet to come, By general request, eagerly urged, Lester Raymond commenced his recital.Helen perceived that he closely and scru- tinisingly perused her features while he spoke, and a strange feeling took sudden possession of her.; It was a contemptuous consciousness of a superiority in the power of deception.She knew that he was trying to read what wag passing within her heart.She applied herself to the task of baffling him, feeling that she could accomplish it with ease.It was her first direct essay under strong pressure, but she went to the task with the skill of a practised adept.- Bhe was naturally an accomplished actress, and with no great effort could have seemed as full of natural wonderment at what had happencd as her sisters Margaret and Evangeline, but she decided upon adopting a defiant aspect\u2014one which should say to Raymond, \u201c You seek, by an attempt to confuse me with your steadfast gaze, to compel me to make an admission\u2014I defy you.\u201d It was a mistake, because it at once raised an impression in the mind of Raymond that she bad something to conceal\u2014that though she listened to his story attentively, met his gaze at certain parts of the recital unflinchingly, made remarks and put ques- tions\u2014all tending to disconnect her with any share in the transaction\u2014she was in some degree mixed up with, if she was not one of, the principal actors in the little drama.It is true that Evangeline exhibited emotions of distress and confusion, but he detected in her conduct no sign of guilt, nothing by which he could presume her to have been a participator in the scene he believed himself to have disturbed, even if she were a confidante ; but Helen, by her manner, challenged his suspicions, and, as it appeared to him, laughed them to scorn ; yet in doing so, giving him reason to form a conviction that they were well grounded.He set his $eeth, and felt the blood mount to his sallow features.It was but for a moment, and he became as pale ag usual, but he determined to apply himself to the task of making himgelf master of Helen's secret, and by its possession master of her, to be used as his own selfish interests might dictate.\" He related to his marvelling auditors how he had escaped from the heated room to allay the heat of his fevered blood in the cool air playing among thas fragrant flower-beds, and sighing through the gxaceful trees in the elegantly-arranged garden, For the sake of effect, the speaker adopted a poetical style of narration, not without success upon the majority of his listeners.The Yip of Helen curled ; to her the chosen language was another proof of this man's art, and she scarcely attempted to dieguise from him that such was her impression.A sense of her estimate of his display, added only to the intensity of his resolve to obtain entire power over her, that he might make her endure tenfold the annoyance\u2014it was something mere\u2014which she made him suffer now.He could moé quite comprehend why so suddenly they stood in an antagonistic position to each other.It was enough that they did so, and that he believed it to be in his power to avenge himself for being viewed in a light insulting to his vomi ty.Proceeding with his tale, be said that, as ke slowly paced the gravelled walk in the broad moonlight, he fancied that he heard the murmur of voices in a retired part of the garden, low and subdued, in truth, but still he was struck by the sound, which was that of two persons in secret conference.He reached the spot from whence it appeared to come, and foemd himself fronting a small cluster of trees, into which hedirected hisgaze ;

bat he had not proceeded far ere the sounds which had previously attracted his attention were renewed.The position he had gained enabled him to command a view of the thicket, He fixed his deep dark eyes upon Helen, but her eyelid never wavered, nor did her face undergo any change.Lester Raymond proceeded\u2014feeling himself baffled for one moment-\u2014to say that he retraced his footsteps, and when near the clump of trees paused, with the intent of catching, if possible, some of the words which passed between the two persons engaged in such deep and earnest conversation, Not, he added, hastily, as he saw the eye of Helen glitter as he believed with scorn, to play the part of a paltry eavesdropper, but to ascertain whether he had unconsciously encountered a couple of enamored servants deep in a love.passage\u2014with what withering emphasis he used those words\u2014or had detected a brace of thieves in the act of concerting measures to rob the house of Mr.Grahame, While standing irresolute as to the steps he should take, a female emerged from the thicket and fled past him towards the house.\u201cTowards my house ;?cried Mr.Grahame, elevating his eyebrows with astonishment.\u201cEven so,\u201d returned Lester Raymond.\u201cSurely she did not enter it 7\u201d he cried, his eyes sparkling with fury ; \u201cno nameless person would dare\u2014\u2014\" My impression is,\u201d said Lester, observing how intently, and with what remarkable self-possession Helen regarded him, \u201c that she disappeared in the shrubbery in front of the house, 1 cannot be positive, for the next moment I was in contact with her companion.\u201d Still Helen\u2019s face was rigid, her features composed, and her eye steadily fixed upon bis.But there was no expression of wonder upon her countenance, as upon tbat of all the rest.What more needed Lester Raymond to tell him that it was her he had seen flitting from the grove of trees across the garden to the house, and that she held secret meetings with some person unknown to her family ?tt And this wretch\u2014this insolent scoundrel,\u201d cried Mr.Grahame, \u201c you fastened upon him, 1 presume, and thus was most murderously assau ted.\u201d \u201c No,\u201d said Lester Raymond, speaking slowly, and with distinctness, ¢ the moonlight fel upon his face\u2014that I saw clearly and well-defined.\u201d « You would know it again 7\u201d exclaim- ?« Most monstrous !\u201d exclaimed Mr, Grahame, with an air of indignant pride, \u201c I never heard of such an outrage, You can describe the man, Mr.Raymond, 50 that the police may be able to track him, and take him into custody ?\u201d * Oh accurately, \u201d replied Lester, ¢ but not to-night.My head aches, and the task would be an annoyance\u2014to-morrow with pleasure, but to-night excuse me.\u201d « But the creature with this desperate person\u2014cou'd you not, my dear Mr, Reymond, describe her\u2014if it were only her attire ?\u201d \u201c She may be in the house,\u201d interposed \u201cfw, Grahame, feeling thata deadly out- \u201cgeen committed upon thefamily And so ends my house returned 08 d rected at | ing an absence of mind which might have Helen ; \u201call I can inform you, ip reply to your question, is that her dress was of some light fabric, but as she fled past me Hke 4 phantom, I was not able to observe | sufficiently well fo give a description of the lady.\u201d \u201cThe lady, indeed,\u201d exclaimed Mrs.Grahame, in a tons of withering contemph.\u201c To.morrow, Mr.Grahame, this strange affair must be thoroughly sifted.\u201d ¢ Indeed, Mrs, Grahame, it shall be,\u201d he replied, ; \u201cHow widiculously wowmantic, Miss CGwahame,\u201d exclaimed the Duke of Castle~ Rose, addressing Helen, .Helen started as he spoke.She haa listened to the aneering sarcagms of Lester, and to her mother's expressions of withering contempt, as though she had been exposed to an atmosphere of flame, and was bound to endure its tremendous torture without one sob of pain.great as wag her agony, her thoughts would fly away with her to him who had occasioned this scene.She was, therefore, thankful to the duke for thus check- caused remark, and replied to him with a vivacity which somewhat astonished Lester, though it helped to confirm the suspicions he entertained connecting her with the interview in the thicket.She adroitly contrived to place the affair in a ridiculous light, without openly giving cause of offence to the Hon.Lester Raymond ; because, with affected sym.pathygshe deplored the injury he had received; but she went so far as to cause him to observe, with a sickly smile\u2014 \u201c Perhaps, Migs Grahame, you conceive that the affair, after all, was a mere fancy, occasioned by the fatigues of my journey to-day 7\u201d ¢ Or the stwength of our fwiend Gwa- bame\u2019s fine old Pawt\u201d exclaimed the duke, with a loud laugh.Mr.Grahame instantly took Helen to task in so serious and go stately a manner that Lester Raymond interfered to obtain pardon for her, which was granted to her, at his instance, in a manner that mortified her only more bitterly than she had yet been.\u201cI will bring him a suppliant to my feet,\u201d she said, mentally, as her eye, sparkling like a star, fastened upon him, \u201cand when he is down, prostrate, abject, I',1 crush him remeorselessly.\u201d The next evening, Helen and Lester were walking together in the garden.She bad already begun to weave her web round him, and he seemed likely to become so enmeshed as never more to escape from it.Suddenly, when near the ornamental water, \u2018he paused.He drew from his breast a small but exquisitely fine cambric handkerchief.¢ I beg your pardon, Miss Grahame,\u201d he said, \u201c if I betray any impertinent curogity, butI am desirous of knowing whether you are acquainted with this handkerchief.\u201d She looked at it.Ina corner, embroidered, were the initials \u201cH, G.\u201d It was her own, and one of value.She smiled.\u201cIndeed,\u201d she answered, \u201cI ought to know it well, Mr.Raymond.\u201d \u201cI found it beneath a tree, there,\u201d he added, pointing to the thicket in which she bad parted with Hugh Riversdale, She had, no doubt, dropped it on leaving him.She felt an acute pain run through ner heart, as she saw in what direction his finger pointed, and that as he spoke his eyes were absolutely glaring upon her, She detected, in an instant, how much depended upon her answer, controlling, as before, with a remarkable exertion of self- will, the expression of her features, She assumed an air of indifference, and, flinging the handkerchief into the stream, upon the bank of which she was standing, she answered\u2014 & Possibly ; it Is one I sometime since gave to my maid, Chayter.\u201d Lester was unable to utter a word\u2019 in reply ; he was baffled.He watched the handkerchief float away, and he said to bimself\u2014 \u201cYet it was you who stood last night in the thicket alone with the fellow who felled me to the earth.Despite this check, I will prove it, and to you !\u201d { To be continued.} THE EXPLOSION NEAR.THURSDAY, SEPT, 21, THE DAY ON WHICH HELL GATE IS TO EE BLOWN TO PIECES, Ope hundred and forty groups, containing 3,800 charges, org 9,800 separate cartridges, were ready for priming yesterday afternoon, at the Hell Gate excavation.This carries the work so far toward completion that Gen, Newton is now enabled to fix definitely the day for the explosion, and anneunces that it will be Thursday, September 21, From time to time it has been found necessary to abandon some of the holes drilled in the rock, but yesterday the final number of holes was fixed upon, and 3,681 will be exploded, that is, 180 gremps of 20 holes each, and 9 groups containing 9 holes each, The work of preparing the performed on the scow anchore Point, under the al supervision of Mr.Julius Striedinger.There the work of getting the fuses ready, making connection of the differemé wires, and setting up the batteries goes on steadily.The priming will begin on Monday morning if no disappointment be caused by the contractors, The primers are made of brass, covered with paper, and have for safety been dipped in paraffine, in order to prevent explosion \u2018by concussion in case one should be dropped while the roof-holes are being primed.Dynamite is the explosive with which these primers are charged.They are all united by electrical fuses, which are placed in them ions to their being stopped by corks which have been boiled in beeswax, rosin, aud tallow.The primers are to be secured in their positions by springs attached to their bottoms, pointing to the openings of the holes, The explosion of the fulminate in the head of the primer will induce that of the dynamite, with which ie body is charged, and that, m ton, will cause the explosion of the entire number of cartridges in the hole, at tho outer end of which the primer is placed.Each primer will contain one pound of dynamite, and will be forced home by a flat stick secured by a wooden key, The work of priming will be simplified by the use of boxes, one for each group, which will severally contain the reel of wire cut to the required length (the distance from the holes to the batteries) and imers is near the the quantity of primers required for its particular group of holes.The different ' sized primers are attached to this wire, and correspond to the sizes of the holes, 80 that mistake in using them seems to ba almost an impossibility.Each twenty primers contain one fuse connected con.\u2018 tinuously in each circuit.Tho duty of the charger will consist simply in entering one primer after another in the drilled holes.When the twentieth, or last primer, has been put in place, a connection will be made between the connecting wire and the one leading wire on the reel, and the reel will then be brought out through to the shaft to the hattery.\u2014N.Y.Sun.September 15, \u2019 TWEEDS EXTRADITION, It seems » waste of energy for any one to trouble himself as to how or why it is that Tweed is surrendered to us by the Spanish Government.There is no doubt of the fact that he is to come hither, and the fact is what is important ; and the whole public must equally rejoice that, whether his coming is or is not an embarrasement to any person or any party, the discredit of his escape through : the sli f local prison keep- nothing, but he inflicted upon my fore- | mi vob be iEscad by hin son Lop head a blow with some weapon which | ers may yet be effaced by his punishment for the offences of which he has been ilty.Itis, however, but natural that it should stir the wonder of the people to find a man thus snapped up and handed over to justice by the authorities of one of the countries with whigh we have no | treaty for the surrender of fugitive offenders, and a country within whose limits it is commonly accounted that a criminal from this country is safe.There is no end of queer surprises in the administration of justice, but it is a very queer surprise indeed that if Tweed had gone straight to England\u2014a country with which we have a treaty\u2014he - would have been safe and might, likeseveral other fugitives, have snapped his fingers at us, while his roundabout journey to a country with which we have no treaty simply lands him at last in Ludlow street, Be Spain the Government order on a subject of this vature issupreme.Though nominally a constitutional country, the habeas corpus is rot a thorn in the side offfjustice, and there is no paint of support in the law to protect a fugitive rogue from the supreme apthority, An extradition tresty in such eircumstances 18 not necessary.It is only necessary to have the good will of the government, and that, it appears, hadbeen gained by us in this case by an act of the same nature, our government having delivered to the Spanish authorities a fugitive from justice.It is said that in so doing our governmentarbitrarily trampled on the law, which might be a nice point for courts to deal with, but its discussion elsewhere would hardly be profitable.It must beremembered, however,that Mr.Seward was not ignorant of our laws and not be man to wantonly offend them.\u2014N.¥, Herz!d, 15\u20ach inst, .THE INTERNATIONAL CHESS TOURNAMENT, COMPLETION OF THY GAMES, The grand international chess tournament which commenced on the I6th ultimo in the rooms of the Philadelphia Chess Club has terminated.Mr.Mason, of New York, played the concluding game vith Max Judd, of St.Louis, and won.Ths remaining game to be played between these gentlemen, which, if won by Judd, would have produced a tie, they agreed to call a draw, This secured to Mason the first prize, censisting of $300 and a silver goblet, and Judd the second, $200 and a gold medal.Jacob Elson, of Philadelphia, played a game with Bird, the ex- champion of England, aud, the latter winning, secured the third prize, $150 and a gold medal.'Fhis leaves Elson and David- gon tie on the fourth and fifth prizes, and it is doubtful how they will decide, Mr.Roberts, of Philadelphia, has secured the sixth prize, a gold medal, The referees of the tournament were: \u2014 Emerson, Bennett, W.H, Gayne, aud Wm.H.Helmbold.The longest game of the tournament was that between Bird and Mason, lasting 9% hours, and consisting of 108 moves.The shortest game was between Barbour and Mason, 45 minutes and 30 moves.A CLERICAL JACK-OF-ALL-TRADES, (From the Pall Mall Gazette.) An interesting instance of clerical versatility is mentioned by M.Alphonse Dau- det in the Journal Officiel.The Island of Houat, which lies off the coast of Brittany and is attached to the Department of the Morbihan as the Isle ot Wight is to Hampshire, contains only 219 inhabitants, over whom the parish priest yields supreme power.In addition to his priestly authority he exerciges every ind of administrative function.He is Mayor and Muni- pal Council all in one ; he has the char, of the milifary fortifications in the island, and whenever the fishermen of the island bave a dispute as to their respective shares in the haul he \u2018has to act as juge de paix.When his parishioners make too much noise at the public house he slips the Mayors tricolar scarf over his cassock and acts, if circumstances render it necessary, as village policeman.A few years ago there was no such thing as à public house upon the island, and the priest had the monopoly of the sale of wine and spirits, which were distributed by a Sister of Charity from behind a grated window of the presbytery.He also held the key of the one oven upan the island, to which all the inhabitants were compelled to bring their flour.These were \u2018 survivals\u201d from the time when communication with the mainland was only possible at rare and uncertain intarvals, and when it sometimes became necessary for the priest, assuming the authority of the captain of a vessel, to put the inhabitants upon rations.A SHOCKING MURDER.AN OLD WOMAN OF EIGHTY YEARS POUNDED TO DEATH BY A NEW YORK BUTCHER, At & quarter past eleven o'clock last night, says the New York Herald of Friday, another shocking murder occurred in the Ninth precinct to add another tragedy to the already long list of recent crimes in this city.The victim, Margaret Seaburgh, aged seventy, was the sister-in-law of Hannah Bourne, who was living with her second husband on the first floor of the tenement house, No.70 Gansevoort street.Daniel Bourne, the husband, did not live very eaceably with his wife, He is a butcher Fr trade, but being left without employment a short time ago, became very brutal in the treatment of his wife and her sister- in-law.This disposition increased so much of late that the two women determined on leaving him and seeking another home, He discovered their design and last night returned to the house where the two women were, bent upon satisfying hisanger, Mrs.Bourne was in bed sick from a kick that the brute had given her last Monday.Mrs.Seaburgh had locked the door, but he had got in through a window and commenced beating his wife, The other woman cried for help, when Daniel, becoming enraged, took up a stick of firewood lying in ane corner and struck her several blows acrose the head with it.The last blow cut a fearful gash in the back of Mrs, Seaburgh\u2019s head, fracturing the skull and killing her instantly.Officer Jowell, of the ninth precinct, attracted by the noise, ran to the house just in time to prevent Daniel's escape.He was taken to the station house and locked up.Mrs.Bourne was also taken there and detained as a witness.A reporter had an interview with Mrs, Bourne at the station house early this morning, The pain in her wounded leg hardly allowed the poor woman to talk, but the reporter succeeded in learning the principal facts in her brief story.She said that they had not already taken other apartments, but merely threatened to do 80 to make her husband go to work and not be a burden to her.She had to support him by doing housework at No.863 \u2018West Fifteenth street, until rendered unable to do so by his brutal violence.In beating his wife last night, before attacking Mrs.Seaburgh, the villain had dragged her from the bed and seriously hurt her, BANK ROBBERS ON A RAID.A STARTLING DAYLIGHT SCENE IN A MIN NESOTA TOWN.A Northfield (Minn.) special says: About 2 o\u2019clock this afternoon eight men, well mounted, entered the town and proceeded to the bank.They entered it and sprang over the counter, ordering the cashier, J.L.Haywood, with a knife to his throat to open the vanlt.At the same time all the persons in the bank, A.E.Bunker, assistant cashier, and Frank Wil.aox, clerk, were ordered to hold up their hands.Mr.Haywood refused to obey their orders to open the money.vault.His neck had been slightly scratched with the knife, and still per- misting, the robbers put the muzzle of a pistol to his right temnle zuà fred.Haywood fall dead.They then turned to Mr, Bunker and ordered him to open the vault.He said he did not know the combination, As the robbers made demonstrations toward bim he ran out the back door.They fired at him, shooting him through the shoulder.Mr, Wilcox was not interfered with.While this was transpiring within the people of the city without were doing good work, Two of the robbers were killed outright, and oue was wounded.The wounded man was taken away by his confederates, one of whom was killed and one captured, The robbers did not get into the vault, nor did they find the cashier's drawer, except the nickel drawer, and the handful of nickels taken from it was thrown to the floor.The robbers were well mounted, and armed with navy revolvers, When they entered the town they drew their revolvers, and putting their horses into full gallop dashed through the streets, shouting to the people on the walks to get inside, While three men were engaged in the bank the others stood on the street, threatening to shoot any one who interfered, and firing several harmless shots.Pistols and gnns were quickly secured by the citizens, and a young man named Wheeler, from a window opposite the building, picked off one of the villains, shooting him through the heart.Another shot prostrated another, when the surviving robbers mounted their horges and beat a retreat, A third robber was hit, but escaped, A band of fifty citizens was organized, and, headed by \u2018Wheeler, started in pursuit.At last accounts the robbers were only twenty-five minutes ahead of the pursuers, and are almost gure to be overtaken, There are all sorts of rumors as to the robbers, many believingthem to be some of the gang heretofore operating in Missouri and Kansas.\u201d ROOTS AND OIL CAKE FOR SHEE] If farmers -were more thoroughly aware how much the profit of sheep depends on right feeding, more care and economy would doubtless be exercised on the subject, One great reason why the combing wool sheep run out when brought from England or Canada is that they do not get the same care and treatment that they had in these countries, and are often kept on soils they are not adapted to, and are ot sufficiently fed.If growers of combing wools would raise sheep primarily to produce mutton ; if they would attend to the breed, and keep their sheep well fed, and care for them generally ; and if they would also try to mature them early, we should just have the wool that is wanted for combing\u2019 and delaine purposes, Farmers cannot expect to keep these large sheep on lean pastures, with but little care of them, and have good wool.Growers will yet learn that these large sheep need more to eat than the small merino, and their food, moreover, should not con.aist too exclusively of Indian corn, bab they should have, also, some roots, mangel wortzel, and especially oil cake.When sheep are fed solely or mostly an corn, they are apt to become too hot and: feverish, and the wool consequently harsh and britvle; while a proper supply of various kinds of food, including roots and oil cake, would produce, soff, sound.and elastic wool, such a$ is now too seldom found in the market, MISCELLANEOUS.YEING AND CLEANING, The establishment of J.M.CARRON, 501 Cralg streot, is remarkable for the beauty
