the better has been noticeable in the various departments of our wholesale and retail trade during the week.February has passed away without bringing the usual amount of snow, which is at present greatly needed to improve the roads ard enable country merchants to enter the city and purchase merchandise for the spring trade, The election contests engrossed the public mind in the early part of the week, and wholesate buginess at the time was for the most part neglected.Iron and hardware are still dull and sales of importance are rare.In England the improvement which was expec®d to take place at the latter end of 1875 was not realised, and the twelve months ending January 31st, 1876, were about the most disastrous ever known in the trade.Orders were frequently taken at a loss to keep machinery going and men together until trade regained somewhat of its former vigor.In the United States and Germany business in this department has also been dull, and all descriptions of metals have shown a heavy decline.Lately, however, signs of improvement hae been manifest in these countries, aud it is hoped this important branch of commerce will shortly recover.Dry goods travellers will soon return from their first spring trip.Orders that have been received are for comparatively light amounts, which, it is noticeable, are placed in fewer hands than in former years.Groceries are without change of importance, and dealers for the most part are en- geged filling orders for the local trade.Sugar has been active and a considerable quantity of this article has arrived in the city, for which a ready sale was experienced.A better feeling is apparent iu layer raisins.Tea, spices und rice are unchanged as regards price.The United States market for Rio coffee was quiet during the early part of last weck, but towards the close there was a better demand, owing to an improved jobbing trade.Raw sugar was quiet and unsteady owing to the slowness of trade and some increase in the importations.Refined was in fair demand.Molasses, rice, spices, tea and forcign fruits, steady at former prices.The leather trade in this city has -continued quiet, prices remaining the same, with the exception of Spanish and slaughter sole, which are less firm.Fish have beenin.moderate request.,Oils and salt, quiet.Business on the Corn Exchange has been unusually dull, and several times not a single sale has been made.Until the navigation opens no movement of any consequence is expected, as dealers operate from Southern ports during the winter season.Now that the Presidential affair hus been disposed off, business in the United States is expected to be more settled, and renewed activity is looked for.Frour per barrel of 196 lbs.: Superior Extra $7 05 @ 720 Extra Superfine 875 @ 88> 8

Government to employ its constitutional power and influence to establish the rights of the people it has emancipated, and to protect them in the enjoyment of those rights when they are infringed upon or assailed, is also generally admitted.The evil which afflicts the Southern States can only be removed or remedied by the united and harmonious efforts of both races, actuated by motives of mutual sympathy and regard, and while in duty bound and fully determined to protect the rights of all by every constitutional means at the disposal of my administration, I am sincerely anxious to use every legitimate influence in favor of honest and efficient local self-government as the true resource of those States for the promotion of the contentment and prosperity of their citizens.In the effort I shall make to aceomplish this purpose, 1 ask the cordial co-operation of all who take an interest in the welfare of the country, trusting that party ties and the prejudice of race will be reely surrendered in behalf of the great purpose to be accomplished in the important work of the restoration of the South.It is not the political situation alone that merits attention ; the material development of that section of country has been arrested by the social and political revolution through which it has passed, and now needs and deserves the considerate care of the National Government, within the just limits preseribed by the Constitution and wise public economy; but at the basis of all prosperity, for that, as well as for every other part of the country, lies the improvement of the intellectual and moral condition of the people.Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education ; to this end, liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State Governments, aud, if need be, supplemented by legitimate aid from the national authority.Let me assure my countryman of the Southern States that it is my earnest desire to regard amd promote their best interests, the interests of the white and of the colored people both and equally, and to put forth my best efforts in behaif of a civil policy which will for ever wipe out, in our political affairs, the color line and the distinction between North and South, to the end that we may have not merely a united North or a united South, but a united country.I ask the attention of the public to the paramount necessity of reform in our civil service, a reform not merely as to certain abuses and practices of so-called official patronage which have come to have the sanction of usage in several departments of our Government, but a change in the system of appointment itself\u2014reform that shall be thorough, radical and complete, a return to the principles and practices of the founders of the Government.They neither expected nor desired from public officers any partizan service.They aeant that public officers should owe their whole service to the Government and to the ople.They meant that the officer should e secure in his tenure as long as his personal character remained untarnished, and and the performance of his duties satisfactory.They held that the appointments of office were not to be made nor expected merely as the rewards for partizan services, nor merely on the nomination of members of Congress às being entitled in any respect to the control of such appointment.The fact that both the great political parties of the country, in declaring their principles prior to the election, gave a prominent place to the subject of reform of our civil service, recognizing and strongly urging its necessity in terms almost -identi- cal in their specific import with those I have here employed, must be accepted as a conclusive argument in behalf of these measures, It must be regarded as the expression of the united voice.and will of the whole country.\u201cBeth political parties are virtually pledged to give it their unreserved support.thé Biiesident: of the United

essential importance the principles of their party organization, but he should strive to be always mindful of the fact that he serves hi# party best who serves the country best.In furtherance of reform, and in other important respects, we seek a change of great importance.I recommend an improvement to the constitution, prescribing a term of six years for the lresi- dential office, and forbidding a reelection.With respect to the financial condition of the country, J shall not attempt an extended history of the embarassment and prostration which we have suffered during the past three years.The depression in all our varied commercial and manufacturing interests throughout the country, which began in September, 1873, still continues.It is very gratifying to be able to say that there are indications all around us of coming change to prosperous Upon the currency question, intimately éonneeted as it is with this topic, I may be permitted to repeat here the state- mént made in my letter of acceptance, thet in my judgment the feeling of uncertainty inseparable from an irredeemable paper currency, with its fluctuation of value, is one of tie gi«ule>.obstacles whatever to prosperous times.The only safe paper currency is one which rests upon a coin basis, and is at all times and promptly convertible into coin.I udhere to the views heretofore expressed by me in favor of Congressional legislation in behalf of an early resumption of specie payment, and 1 am satisfied not only that this is wise, but that the interests as well as the public sentiment of the country imperatively demand it.Passing from those remarks upon the condition of our country to consider our relations with other lands, weare reminded by the international complications abroad threatening the peace of Europe that our traditional rule of non-interference in affairs of foreign nations has proved of great advantage in past times, and ought to be strictly observed.The policy inaugurated by my honored predecessor, President Grant, of submitting to arbitration grave questions in dispute between ourselves and foreign'powers, points to a new and incomparably the best instrumentality for the preservation of peace, and will, as I believe, become a beneficent example of the course to be pursued in similar emergencies by other nations.If, unhappily, questions of difference should at any time during my administration arise between the United States and any foreign government, it will certainly be my disposition and my hope to aid in their settlement in the same peaceful and honorable way, thus securing to our country the great blessings of peace and mutual good offices with all nations of the world.Fellow citizens, we have reached the close of a political contest marked by the excitement which usually attends all contests between great political parties, whose members espouse and advocate with earnest faith their respective creeds.The circumstances were, perhaps, in no respect extraordinary, save in the closeness and consequent uncertainty of the result.For the first time in the history of the country it has been deemed best, in view of the peculiar circumstances of the case, that objections and questions in dispute with reference to country electoral votes should be referred to the decision ofa tribunal appointed for this purpose.That tribunal, established by law for this sole purpose, its members all of them men of long established reputation for integrity and intelligence, and with the exception of those who are also members of the Supreme judiciary, chosen equally from both political parties, its deliberations enlightened by the research and the arguments of able counsel, was entitled to the fullest confidence of the American people, and its decisions have been patiently waited for and accepted as legally conclusive by the general judgment of the public.For the present opinion will widely vary as to the wisdom of the several conclusions announced by that tribunal.This is to be anticipated in every instance where matters of dispute were made the subject of arbitration under the form of law.Human judgment is never unerring and is rarely regarded as otherwise than wrong by an unsuccessful party in the contest.The fact that two great political parties have in this way settled a dispute in regard to which good men diff:r as to facts and law, no less than as to the proper course to be pursued in solving the question in controversy, is an occasion for general rejoicing.Upon one point there is entire unanimity in public sentiment ; that conflicting claims to the Presidency must be amicably and peae- fully adjusted, and that when so adjusted the general acquiescence of the nation ouzht surely to follow.It has been reserved for the government of a people, where the right of suffrage is universal, to give to the world the first example in history of a great nation in the midst of a struggle of opposing parties for power, amidst all its party tumults, to yield the issue of the contest to adjustment according to the forms of law, looking for the guidance of that Divine Hand by which the destinies of nations and individuals are shaped.I call upon you, Senators, Representatives, Judges, fellow-citi- zens, here and everywhere, to unite with me in an earnest effort to secure to our country the blessing not only of material prosperity, but of justice, peace and union\u2014a union depending not upon constraint of force, but upon the loving devotion of a free people, that all things may beso ordered and settled upon the best and surest foundation, that peace and happiness, truth and justice, religionand piety, may be established among us for all generations.His appearance was greeted with shouts .of applause from the thousands who stood closely packed together in front and behind, the long line of military extending from one end of the capitol grounds to the other.The address, although read from manuscript, was delivered with great animation, but al-, though his voice was clear and strong, it could not be heard at any considerable distance owing to the hum of conversation and the struggles of the crowd.At the conclusion of the address the oath of office was administered to the President by Chief Justice Waite.: Hayes, escorted by Grant and Wheeler and Senator McCreery, then proceeded to the Executive Mansion.The torchlight procession last night in honor of the inauguration of President Hayes was a great success, fully 5,000 men being in line.President Hayes received a large number of friends at the Executive Mansion in the evening.À great many Congressmen were among the callers.À grand reception was given to him at Willard\u2019s Hotel, under the auspices of the Columbus Cadets.There was a dense crowd in attendance.New York, March 6.\u2014The Herald this morning, commenting on Hayes\u2019 inangural, says : \u201c\u2018His formal declaration of intentions is so wise and satisfactory that it is difficult to point out any particular in which it could ke improved.It reflects just the sentiments of the majority of the Ameriean people of both parties, and the President who proclaims his purpose to do things which the enlightened public opinion of his countrymen most urgently demand cannot fail, if his method is as skilful as his objects are well chosen.\u201d DOMINION PARLIAMENT.Orrawa, March 5.\u2014Hon.Mr.Mackenzie presented a number of returns, asked for in reference to the Intercolonial Railway.The Speaker laid upon the table a list of

see no reason to object, but he might do so as the enquiry progressed.Sir John Macdonald said, on behalf of the old Government and of himself, he had not the slightest objection to this matter be- ng referred to a committee, and the whole matter\u2014as to the mode of audit in England, and as to the practice here\u2014being gone into.It was worthy of remark, however, that the Premier wasa member

unnecessary appointments, and conso- quently increased the burdens of the people, He found, however, that in the year 1878, when the appointments in question were made, the expenditure for salaries in one department was $886,685 as against $909, - 265 in the following year, under the pre sent Government, although the latter had thought it their duty to cancel a great many of the appointments made by the late Government.(Hear, hear.)

Why, in neither public nor private life could he talk of pwrity\u2014(cheers)\u2014 unless he he had a face of eopper.(Cheers ; cries of \u201c* Order,\u201d ¢ Chair,\u201d and general clamor.) Hon.Mr.Huntington rose, attempted to say something, but could not be heard for the noise.The Speaker threatened to adjourn the House.: Hon.Mr.Huntington continued, attempting to make himself heard, amid cries of \u201cOrder \u201d and ¢ Chair.\u201d The Speaker\u2014The hon.member for Shef- ford, as 1 understand, has risen to a point of order.1 want to hear what he has to say.Hon.Mr.Huntington \u2014The hon.gentleman said I had a face of copper, and that I had no respectability in either public or private life.The Speaker\u2014No, he did not say that, The hon.member said that the hon.member for Shefford cannot talk about purity in public or private life.What the exact meaning of that is I cannot say.Hon.Mr.Huntington\u2014I challenge the the hon.gentleman\u2014{Criesof * order\u201d from the Opposition, and cheers from Government members, in the midst of which the \"last words of the hon.member were lost by the occupants of the gallery] \u201c been so much excitement in the course of the debate.The hone member for Cumberland bad not cherged the Minister of Justice, 50 The Speaker said he was sorry there had a \u2014 1 [LO aE emt far as he (Mr.Speaker) understood him, with being a \u201cfoul-mouthed slanderer,\u201d but he (Dr.Tupper) had said that if the hon.gentleman went into the constituency and charged the hon.member for Kingston with being a criminal, that constituency would say he was a *¢ foul-mouthed slanderer.\u201d Sir \u2018John Macdonald rose again, amid cheers, and remarked that Le thought the warning of Mr.Speaker had not come a bit too soon.The hon.member for Shetford had called him (Sir John) to order in his first Lreath, aud then challenged him (Sir John) to repeat what he had said; having secured Mr Speaker\u2019s decision, that he (Sir John} could not say it, he (Huntington) challenged him (Sir John) to say it.(Laughter.) The hon.gentleman had alluded to what he (Sir John) had said before in the House, and he gaid in reply that if the hon.gentleman had not run away from the subpœna which was issued at the time of the Pacific scandal investigation, but had remained and told the truth, he (Sir John) would have proved him (Huntiugton) to be in league with alien men to dispose of the best interests of the country, but he (Sir John) regarded not the statements of that hon, gentleman ; he would hand the hon.member over to the tender mercies of the hon.member for Chateauguay.He would hand him over to the courts in Scotland.(Cheers.) Hon.Mr.Huntington\u2014You have already done that.Sir John Macdonald \u2014Yes, and the hon.gentleman was obliged to disgorge his ill- gotten gains.(Cheers.) He had thought that the amicable arrangements which were established between the Minister of Justice and himself (Sir John) would have prevented him (Blake) using the unjust and injurious language towards him (Sir John) that he had, Ile (Sir John) thought that if the hon, gentleman had believed him to bea convicted criminal, as he said on the hustings in Toronto, he would not have held out the right hand of fellowship to him and invited him to his hospitable board.He (Sir John) had believed that Le hud regretted that even in the hour of political triumph or excitement he had ever used that language towards lim.He (Sir John) could not pretend to say that everything he had done had been correct.He has often confessed that, looking back on bis long political carcer, he found many things which, seen in the light of experience, he would wish to have undone.He hadno desire to raise himself falsely in the estimation of his countrymen, but he believed he had earned that esteem in the country ; that the dispassionate jndgment of those who were politically opposed to him, as well as of those who supported him, was that with all his faults, with all his failings, with all his frailties, he still did what he thought best for the goad of the country [cheers.] This testimony, coming to him from the plain Grit farmer of Ontario, was still more pleasing to him than what came from his political friends.He grieved extremely at the tone which the Minister of Justice had adopted towards him to-night ; he was going to say that he was swiprised, but after the language which the hon.gentleman had used on previous occasions, he could not say that.He had thought that a new era was about to commence when he heard the lon.gentleman appeal to the House the other day to set aside all strong language and irritating feelings, and to try to carry on their discussions in the future in a parliamentary strain.Sir John went on to explain the ecircum- stances under which the testimonial had heen got up.In 1870, during the session, Le (Sir John) was struck down by an illness that it was supposed at the time would be mortal.This made his friends begin to consider what would become of his family, and they ascertained that whether from his fault or from his devotion to public duties, he would leave them but slenderly provided for.After he recovered, he was taken down to Prince Fdward Island, and left there all summer, quite unaware as yet of what his friends were doing, and he never learned of it until he returned to Ottawa in the fall, and saw some statements in the newspapers.Mr.Macpherson submitted to him (Sir John) three names as trustees, and they were those of men who, he thought, would have seen that nothing dishonorable was attached to either their own names or to his in connection with the matter.They were the Hon.George W.Allan, Colonel Gzowski and Colonel Bernard (cheers).He (Sir John) declared upon his honor, and he would be willing to do upon his oath, that he did not know the name of any one of the contributors to that fund, excepting the Northern Railway, of which he had been made aware by the present report, and the Great Western Railway, of which he had been made aware by newspaper articles, He had something to say with regard to the Mail newspaper.The Mail was not subsidized by the Northern Railway.Col.Cumberland became a subscriber to so much stock, and he [Sir John] saw him write his name on the book.The Mail was got up to counterbalance the influence of the Globe.The Northern Railway did not subscribe to the stock ; it was Col.Cumberland.He | Sir John] believed there was no justification for the commission, and he believed that if the Minister of Justice had been in Canada he would not have sanctioned it.\u2018Mr.Young moved in amendment to the motion :\u2014\u2018\u2018'That the allegations in the report, and the evidence of the commission as to the application of money payable to the Government, deserves the serious consideration of the House, and that a select committee of nine members be appointed to enquire into and report on such allegations, with power to send for persons, papers and records, and to report from time to time.\u201d Hon.Mr.Blake said in relation to the legality of the commission, he stated that no witness need have attended at the commission, had they thought proper not to do so.With regard to his candidature in West Durham, he had only to say that his political friends had invited him to become a candidate, and they had also paid his expenses.\u2018Whether Mr.Simpson had been asked to contribute to his election he knew not.He had the honor to say for South Bruce that he had been elected in the same way, He did not think there was anything dishonorable in that.With reference to the statement he made in Toronto, that the right hon.gentleman was a convicted criminal, with regard to his connection with the Pacific Railway, he (Mr.Blake) had used the term before in the House, but he used it in a political sense.He regretted to have to use it, but it was the only adequate term he could find.A noisy scene here occurred, brought about Ly a discussion as to whether the present Government had bribed Prince Edward Jsland by the promise of a seat in the Cabinet.Sir John A.Macdonald moved \u201cThat the Commission contiune to enquire into the affairs of the Northern Railway Company and the Norihern Extension Company, so as to complete {lie cnquiry left before the Commission.\u201d .The motion and its amendments were carried.The House adjourned at 1.45.Commercial, STAR OrricE, March 6, 1877.The following properties were sold yesterday by Messms.Benning & Barsalou, at the office of Mr.Thos.Darling, official assignee: Block of houses on Ontario and Platt streets, consisting of two tenements on Ontario street and three cottages on Platt street, sold for $14,000 to Mrs.Thompson ;

and, on every question that arose, the Republican view\u2014or the view that agreed with Lepublican interests\u2014was supported \u2018y.the Repntlicans, and the Democratic view by the Democrats.The Supreme Court Judges fell into their places just like the rest.Those whose antecedents were Republican were invariably on that side, and those whose anteceden!s were Democratic on the other.In scanning their votes we could not help being reminded of the occasion when the disputed questions connected with the arbitration between the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec came before the Dominion Parliament.\u2018 These were questions of account, of debtor and creditor, on which it might have been supposed that no two honest and intelligent men could disagree ; and yet every Ontario man in the Commons and in the Senate took the Ontario view, and every Quebec man the Quebec view.By some extraordinary miracle, every man was guided\u2014while following, of course, a perfectly impartial rea- son\u2014to the precise opinion that aecorded with the interests of the Province he represented.Not one Don Quixote was found on either side to say that he saw any reason or force in the arguments advanced on the other side.Surely such a fact is enough to stamp as a mockery our hoasted system of free discussion in and out of Parliament When the result of discussion is for every man to be confirmed in holding by what his own interests require or suggest, it might be well to dispense with the farce of discussion.\u201cDispense, dispense ** ought, in simple decency, to be the ery.\u2018Why should we argue if we are only to find ourselves in the end precisely where we started?Better far to say at once: \u201cWe want it to be so, and we shall insist on finding that it is so.\u201d Had the constitution of the special Commission at Washington been varied by the substitution of one Democrat for one Repu\u201d- lican, Tilden, instead of Hayes, would now be President of the American Republic.Oue vote would have changed all.It is not pleasant to think that, in so dignified an responsible a body, party spirit should rule with as much despotism as in some village gathering ; but the steady vote of 8 to 7 re mains as an abiding proof that the ultimate argument on every point discussed was party interest.It is possible, of course, that one side was completely in the right and the other completelyin the wrong ; but, if we admit that, we still have no reason for believing that those who were in the right would have voted differently if they had been in the wrong.We must congratulate our ncighbors, however, on having passed safely through another great crisis ; and we trust they have awaiting them four years, and many more years, of peaceful progress.The tendency of things in this country is towards the curbing of party spirit, and there is reagon to hope that,in the American nation, the general increase of enlightenment from year to year will work in the same direction.Projected Improvements.1t has, doubtless, occured to many dwellers in the Dominion that our climate is susceptible of great improvement.Not that the climate of Canada is singular in this respect.All experience tends to show that fault has been found with every climate under the sun, but very few climates are so completely under human control as is that -of Canada.That the work of amendment has not cre this been undertaken is, doubtless, due to a variety of reasons, among which the thought that failure might result can hardly be counted.It is well-known, at least, the Liverpool Post says it is, that all the disagreeable features of the climate of Canada ave due to the Straits of Belle Isle.If there were no Belle Isle Straits thie icy stream from the Northern Sea would pour directly into the Atlantic without touching Newfoundland, Anticosti and the month of the St.Lawrence.The winter would be reduced by about three mionths, end the great river would be open all the year round.Such being the case, it is proposed to block up the Straits, and so shunt off the annual train of icebergs and floes into waters where they would meet a warm stream which would promptly thaw them.It is said that the result would be \u201ca new climate for Lower Canada.\u201d Land now desolate would be rendered highly productive, and large tracts would \u2018become valuable either for the cultivation of.crops or the raising of stock with which to supply the English market.\u201d Is not that worth striving for?If the climate of Lower Canada would be thus improved, what beneficial change might we not expect the climate of Upper Canada to undergo?It seems to be a simple case of rule of three, If, by blocking the Straits, Quebee\u2019s clime is changed to that of France, what would that of Ontario change to?Italy?But how is this great improvement to be accomplished ?There is nothing like coming down to de- Glittering generalities are very well that character, but in a practical matter of such serious moment as the reorganization of a climate it is best to keep well in view .the matter-of-fact bearings of.the case, The advocates of the scheme frankly admit that .Boston.flag at half-mast.a & - >< de it is startling at first sight.That is well.1t is pad policy to belittle the difficulties of any project.But there are compensatory considerations.It is true the Straits are eight miles wide at their narragest point, but then the plummet line has failed to find a greater depth than ninety feet.Bat, better still, the material wherewith to fill the gap is close at hand.We read that \u2018\u2018at the narrowest point there are immense roeks, which only require to be blown into pieces and laid down.\u201d What more could be asked ! Of course, if a mine of giant powder or nitro-glycerine could be discovered somewhere in Je vicinity it would help matters greatly, but he would be a churl, indeed, who would cavil at what Nature has already done in the way of- providing facilities for the accomplishment of the great work.Then, as to the cost, a mere bagatelle comparatively speaking\u2014twenty-five millions of dollars.¢¢ A mere trifle,\u201d says the Post, \u201c\u201cto an increasingly prosperous country like Canada.\u201d Exactly.It is true a deficit of a million or so in the Dominion Treasury causes a good deal of excitement in the country, but this is doubtless owing to the party spirit which is infused into the matter.But the improvement of the climate could hardly be made a party question.The sun shines on the good and bad alike, and nobody can monopolise the rain.No doubt when the appeal is made in due form, the twenty-five millions will be promptly forthcoming.And when the glorious results of the work are seen and felt ; when we can go to Newfoundland by the overland route, and sail down the St.Lawrence to spend Christmas at Quebec ; when Ulsters are no more, and frosthites things of the past; when the Ven- norian struggle is docked of three months of its agony, and the period when \u201cheavy storms\u201d and \u201ccold dips\u201d may be vainly predicted, is vastly curtailed, then may we not expect that yet greater thing: will be attempted ; feats of engineering skill which will dwarf the Belle Isle Block, and proclaim with ten-fold force the triumph of mind over matter.The conversion of the Great Desert into an inland sea, and the severance of North and South America by the Darien canal are comparatively old schemes.By the time the Straits of Belle Isle are abolished they will probably be accomplished works.\u2018That great bore\u2014the tunnel from Dover to Calais\u2014will have been put through or the Belle Isle plan will have been copied, and an embankment thrown across from England to France with a draw-bridge in the centre, or at cach end, for the passage of vessels, But a greater work awaits us on this side the Atlantic.The Niagara Falls are notoriously neglected.Not by bridal parties or vendors of Brummagem ¢ curiosities,\u201d but by those great engineering minds which give countries new climates and such.Yes, Niagara has yetto be utilized.How?Well, it can hardly be expected that the details of such a project can be gone into at the end of a newspaper article, but, briefly, it may be hinted that the scheme is to make the Falls of Niagara supply water for household, fire and manufacturing purposes throughout the eastward portion of the Dominion.It is believed that this can be done by diverting the river, or as much of it as may be deemed necessary, into a huge tube, just above the falls.It is caleulated that this would give \u2018head\u2019 enough for all purposes.A great main would run like a trunk line through the country, and cities, towns, villages, even individuals would be allowed to tap it to suit their convenience.The smallest village would have as good a pressure as the largest city, and the mates of insurance would, of course, go down.Once fixed there would be no more expense, beyond the small amount to provide for ordinary wear and tear.We fancy we hear some one say the scheme would be too costly.No doubt it would entail a large expenditure at first, but acountry that can (as the Liverpool Post says) spend twenty-five millions upon a new climate could surely find the required funds.An Absconder in New York.Thomas McDuff, whose default in connection with the firm of Gilmour & Co., lumber merchants, in this city, is a matter of notoriety, and which is supposed to have led to the disappearance of the senior member of the firm, has been traced to New York, where he was trying to obtain a passage to England.lle was stopping at the Occidental Hotel, corner of Broome street and the Bowery, and while there he gave indications of being in an unsound state of mind, le mysteriously disappeared from the hotel, and was subsequently traced to Enquiries there has led to the belief that he returned to New York or its neighborhood.The police are hunting him up, but so far without success.New York, March 6.\u2014The Times\u2018 Cim cinnati special reports that Judge Matthews will succeed Senator Sherman, and Attorney- General Taft will be reserved for gubernatorial nomination next fall.The Sun\u2019s Washington special says : Interviews with about 25 Southern Democrats, since the delivery of Hayes\u2019 inaugural address, show that they all concur in the opinion that, if Hayes adheres to the policy indicated, his administration will meet with the approval and support of the Southern people.The Tribune\u2019s Washington special says Wait, Sherman, Schurz and McCrary have positively accepted the positions tendered to them;

songs by Messrs, R.Patton, S.S.Baiu and \u2018Wm.Miller ; an essay on temperance by H.McKenzie Wilson, and a reading by Mr.Bingley.The meeting afterwards dispersed.Meeting of the Bar.À meeting of the members of the Bar was held\u2018this afternoon, Mr.Kerr, Q.C., Baton- nier, in the chair.Mr.Davidson made a motion to adjourn, as there was no quorum.Mr.Duhamel said that it was always the case ;

and the meeting fully endosed this view.Irish Protestant Society.The new Temperance Hall, 359 Notre Dame street, was well filled last evening by members of the above Society, on the occasion of its 21st annual meetin, The President, Mr.W.J.MacMaster, in the chair.Present : Messrs, Christopher Healy, Major Linton, M.H.Gault, Percy Black, secretary; Ald.McCord, McKeown and others.After routine, the Secretary read his annual report, substantially as follows : The society was congratulated on its success in the past year ; the resignation of Ald.Clen- dinneng as president, and the election of Mr.MacMaster in his stead, was referred to ; $168.43 had been netted at the concert given in the Victoria Rink on the 22nd: June ; the society, being the proceeds of Mr.Robert Kerr\u2019slecture at the Mechanics\u2019 Hall in November last.At a mass meeting held in same month the question of founding a \u2018home \u201d was argued, and the roll of members was largely augmented.Thanks were returned to all who assisted at the above enumerated assemblies, The annual concert, which took place in December last, had realized $50.00, about $34.00 of which had not been received yet.The prog ject of a Home had not been pushed, owing to the prolonged absence of the President.The Council recommends that no further steps be taken till the required sum be subscribed}; at present four members had contributed $1,350, It is suggested that a thorough canvass of the -ity be made with a view of relieving the Irish Protestant poor.Thanks were r~turned to Mr.Robert Irwin, Chairman of the Charitable Committee\u2019; Mr.Daly, Dominion Emigration Agent ; Méssrs.& A, Allan, for reduction on passage rates ; oseph Hickson, General Manager of the Grand Trunk Railway, gentlemen of the Outdoor Board of Relief, Messrs.Brown and D.McMillan and other friends, for their kind asgistance.Allusion was made to the death of a young man named Synnot, in the General Hospital, which is supposed to have been accelerated through want of the necessaries of life ; this showed the urgent want of a Home.The financial report gives the receipts as $1,446.42, and the expenditure $1,442.69 ; balance on hand, $3.83; total | assets, after deducting all liabilities, $4,- l 047.68.The President then moved the adoption of the report, but before it was adopted a discussion ensued, in which objection was made to the words \u2018\u2018he had to starve and die,\u201d referring to the death of the young man Synnot.Mr.Robert Irwin thought these words might do for the Witness, but they did not become the Irish Protestaut Benevolent Society, adding that Mr.Me- Millan, the Superintendent of the House of Industry and Refuge, always received appli- \u201ccants for relief with proper consideration.The report was adopted with the obnoxious words removed.Sixteen new members were elected.The election of officers by ballot then followed : President, Wm J MacMaster ; First Vice- President, Robert Irwin ; Second Vice-Presi- dent, G À Holland ; Third Vice-President, Ald D R MoCord ; Treasurer, T H Mooney; Recording Secretary, W G Wilson ; Assistant Secretary, Jas Carmichael, Jr ;

this power, too, was too | much to vest in the hands of any ane mas, and he should be assisted by the Council.Mr.Domville said there were retien companies in England as well as in the United States, and we should be careful how we throw stones at our neighbors.It is true American compenies had been wound up during the hard times, but so had Canadian and English companies, and the American companies showed better dividends than we did.In England 38 companies had gone up at one time.Mr.Mackenzie suggested that the fourth dause be amended so as to provide that li- enses shall issue on the approval of the Treasury Board.The clause being put from the chair, was adopted without amendment.On the fifth clause being taken up, Mr.Young said it was not to the interest of the people of Canada that the American com- panics should be compelled to withdraw from the country.They were dissatisfied with the restrictions already put upon them, and it wes the general impression that this clause would have the effect of drawing them out of the Domiriion.He thought American securities should be accepted from American companies.Mr.Domville called attention to the words \u2018\u2018 United Kingdom securities\u201d in the bill.He thohght there might be some difference of opinion as to what were United Kingdom securities, ANNEE > VON Mr.Cartwright believed the clause should be left as it was.As to American securities, the discount sometimes gave them much trouble.a Mr.Domville suggested that no American securities, except Government or municipal securities, should be accepted.Mr.Plumb thought they did not want cheap insurance, but safe insurance.Mr.Mackenzie replied that the question was as to whether the companies should be allowed to invest in those securities which prid the best rates of interest.He believed municipal bonds were as good as Government secnrities.Mr.Irving\u2014No.Mr.Mackenzie\u2014If the hon.gentleman would allow him to believe it.Mr.Irving explained that when a municipality failed to provide for the payment of interest, bondholders could not recover without going through the formality of alaw- suit ; whereas, the Government always provided for the interest falling due on its bonds.Mr.Mackenzie\u2014\u2018\u2018 Not all Governments; Turkey, for instance.\u201d (Laughter.) Mr.Plumb moved an amendment, restricting future depesits to Government securities, Mr.Young opposed the amendment, on the ground that most of our companies invested in municipal securities, by which they were enabled to pay better dividends.Mr.Gibbs moved an amendment\u2014That Canadian municipal debentures should also be accepted.Mr.Cartwright explained that, at present, the highest class of municipal debentures were received at par.Mr.Smith Selkirk) was informed that some companies paid enormous commissiens that, if restricted, they would do a safer business.On being put from the chair, Mr.Plumb\u2019s amendment was negatived.Mr.Gibbs\u2019 amendment was then put and lost.The fifth clause was then adopted.The sixth clause, providing for further deposits in certain cases, was adopted, and the Committee adjourned until 10 o'clock on Thursday.City News.\u2014 The Out-Door Board of Relief is to receive a percentage of all the money taken at 8.Carsley\u2019s during the present week.\u2014 A man named W.Naze was killed on the Grand Trunk by being run over west of St.Hyacinthe.Coroner\u2019s jury returned a verdict of accidental death.Academy of Music.Boucicault\u2019s ¢ Shaughraun\u2019\u2019 was reproduced last night at this house, with pretty much the same cast as before, and was well reeeiv- ed.It will be given again to-night.\u2018 St.Patrick\u2019s Sochedy.Lest evening, the usual monthly meeting of this Society took place in their hall, corner of Craig and Alexander streets, Mr.W.A.Doan in the chair.After the routine business was finished, a resolution was moved, the object of which was to form an * Irish Catholic Couneil,\u201d\u201d to be composed of the various Catholic societies.It was then moved and seconded that the officers of this Society be instructed to take part in the formation of the said council.After zome discussion, a resolution of condolence with the family of the late Mr.O'Mahoney was passed, and the meeting adjourned.George Odger.The cable announces the death of George Odger, the notorious London (England) agitator.Deceased wes a shoemaker by trade, but for many vears past forsook the last for politicaland social agitation.He was the first President of the International Workingmen\u2019s Society, but when the excesses of the Commune took place in Paris he resigned the position, and allied himself only with the English Trades\u2019 Union, of which he subsequently became President.He thrust himself forward as a so-called Workingmens\u2019 Candidate, at the general election for the large Borongh of Southwark, but was ignominiously beaten by Colonel Beresford, Conservative.Odger was self-educated, bad considerable natural talent, and was obstinately attached to hisown extreme radieal opinions.He was a gocd stump orator, and we have heard him make some slashing speeches against the Whigs, in Hyde Park, under the Reformer\u2019s Tree.He wrote many fugitive pieces for the magazines and weekly London press.He published a small weekly per in the metropolis for a short time in the interests, as he said, of labor, but it died for want of appreciation.He has been acting latterly as Lecturer and General Secretary for the Unions in England, from which he derived a support.He was about 60 years of age at the time of his death.SUBURBAN NEWS.ST.JEAN BarmisTE \u2014At the usual monthly meeting of the St.Jean Baptiste Council, held on Monday evening, a petition was presented by the proprietors on St.Lawrence Main street, praying the Council to negotiate a loan for $6,000, to be employed street, it being understood that the proprietors would be held responsible for the loan.The petition, whieh seemed to he favorably received, was taken into consideration, an answer to be given at the next meeting.Petitions were presented from three tavern \u2018keepers, asking for licenses, which were refused.Three tavern-keepers resigned their licerrsen on acrount: of leaving the village, Amognte ovek $300.III Sion .8 LECOURS, 102 1 \u2018 - Assignee.Montreal, étp March, 1877.85 \u2018which it is not the intäntion of \"the Council \u2018ta replace.9-7 : \u2014as much as 60 per cent., and he believed\u201d in the water supply and drainage of that NoTRE DAME DF GRACE.\u2014At a meeting of the Council of the Muuicipality of Notre Dame de Grace, held in the new school-house in Cote St.Antoine, on Monday, the 5th inst, the following named genilemen being present: W.Rutherford, J, K.Ward, Alex.Murray and W.F.lewis as Councillors, John Dunlop, Esq., Secre- tary-Treasurer.J.K.Ward was chosen to serve as Mayor for the current year, and J.D.Crawford, Richard Jellyman and Richard Warminton as CounciHors, to fill the places of T.F.O\u2019Brien, Alex.Mills and Chas.Chaput, Esqrs., whose term of office had expired.Financial.STAR OFFICS, 4 p.m, | March 6.The money market is without features.Sterling Exchange, 94 to 94 over the counter ;

and I was afraid of her.Many and many a time had I cursed my folly and wickedness in departing, even for a homent, from the straight path of rectitude.1 wondered that I had been able to delude myself into the belief that takin even a few hundred dollars for a brief peri was not a crime.Be warned, O young man, againstthe first wrong step.While you cheat others, you are the greatest dupe yourself.In the excitement of seeing the wonders of London I had found some relief from the goadings of conscience, and from the terrors of the future.Almost every day I met some Americans, seeing the sights which attracted strangers.I avoided them, for I feared that I should be recognized by some one from Boston.Lilian desired to see these Americans, but I was obliged to lead her away from them.I was not only an exile from home, but I felt likea leper among my OWL coumtrymen.; 1 was now to face a genuine trial, not a fear, but a reality.After reading the paragraph in the newspaper, my wife had evidently measured my conduct by the suspicions she entertained.By this time she was satisfied that I had not resorted to so much concealment in leaving Boston for the reasons I had alleged.My course was inconsistent from beginning to end.I could easily imagine what had passed through her mind since she read that paragraph.Possibly I might succeed in lulling her suspicions for the time.I might even argue her out of them.She was innocence and simplicity, like her father, rather than her mother, and would try to believe what I told her.But what was the use to attempt to deceive her any longer?The truth would soon dawn upon her.Yet I had not the courage to be candid with her.* Why don\u2019t you tell me about it, Paley ?\u2019 repeated she, anxiously, as I turned over the newspaper.\u201cWhat shall I tell you, Lilian ?\u201d \u201cTell me that you are not a defaulter.\u201d \u201cWell, I'm not, then,\u201d I replied, with a smile, which 1 am sure was a very grim one.She looked at me, and I saw her eyes fill with tears after she had gazed at me in silence for a moment.think that my tone and my looks belied my speech, and frithout heeding the value of the words I used, they conveyed to her the impression that I was guilty.\u201cWhy do you cry, Lilian?\u201d I asked, tnoved by her tears.\u201c1 don\u2019t know.Ican\u2019t help it.I feel just as though something was going wrong,\u201d she replied, covering her face with her handkerchief, \u201cWhy, what do you mean, Lilian?\u2019 \u2018Everything looks very strange to me.\u201d \u2018What looks strange ?\u201d \u2018That we should have left so suddenly ; that I could not even tell dear ma where we were going ; that you were in such a hurry to reach your new place in Paris, though we have stopped a whole month in London.What is the reason I have no letters from home ?* \u201cBecause none have come, I suppose.1 have not received any,\u201d I answered, struggling to be funny.cs Paley, you told me, if you left for Paris, that you should write to the bank officers, and resign your situation.You did not do so.This paper says you hae been missing for a week, and there is a suspicion that your accounts are not all right.Tell me the worst, Paley.I will try to bear it,\u201d she continued, wiping away the tears which filled her eyes.I was tempted to do so.She had been worrying for weeks about her letters, and she would continue to do so as long as we remained in Europe.No letters would come ; none could come.Her parents and her sisters were as anxious about her as she was about them.I could never make peace on the plan which I had laid out at home.My wife would become more and more unhappy, and after the facts of my defalcation had been fully published, I should be still more in dread of meeting some American who would recognize me.Asa teller in the bank I was well known to many of the wealthiest men in Boston.Under existing tresties, | could be arrested in most of the European nations, and sent back to the scene of my crime.There was no place of safety for me.1 could not flee from the wrath to come.: ¢ What do you suspect, Lilian ?\u2019 I inquired.\u201c1 should not suspect anything, if this paj er did not say that your accounts were supposed to be wrong.I don\u2019t know anything about such things, but this paragraph set me to thinking how strange your movements were when yeu left Boston.I wish I could believe it is all right.Why don\u2019t you go to your place in Paris?We had to leave home at twenty-four hours\u2019 notice, because there must be no delay.\u201d \u2018We are going next week.\u201d ¢\u2018 But you have laid your plans to travel in Europe for the next year, at least.\u201d What was the use for me to attempt to explain?It was worse than folly.I had told Lilian so many stories, without regard to their consistency, that she knew not what to believe.I was disgusted with myself.\u201cI don\u2019t see where you got so much money, either, Paley,\u201d she added.¢ Do you think I stole it?\u2019 T asked, somewhat severely.\u201cI'm afraid you did,\u201d she answered, with a shudder.\u201cYou are ?\u2019 \u201cWhen 1 think of it, I am really afraid you did.Here we are in London under an assumed name.All your papers call you Charles Gaspiller.You told me you had over thirty thousand dollars, too.\u201d ¢¢ I should have had more if Thad not lost any,\u201d 1 replied, in rather a surly tone.Tell methe whole trath, Paley.Let me Know the worst.If my husband is a\u2014\" \u201c À wbat ?\u201d \u2018 À defaulter, a thief.Let me know it,\u201d said she with a burst of agony.\u201cA thief!\u201d I exclaimed, springing to my feet, \u201cDon\u2019t be angry, Paley,\u201d \u201cWhen my wife calls me a thief, we have been together long enough,\u201d I added, stern- 1 y.I took my hat, and rushed out of the room.I was angry, but my wrath was of only a moment\u2019s duration.I went out into the Strand and walked at a furious pace till I,reached the American Agency.I wished to know the worst.If Ihad been published as a defaulter in Boston, I was no longer safe in London.I wished to see a file of Boston papers.I had not thought of looking at them before, because I desired to banish my native land from my mind.I turned the folios till I came to the one which Lilian had seen.I read the paragraph again.It was very vague.It did not say that the missing teller was a defaulter ; it only hinted at something of the kind, for the inference always is, when a bank officer disappears, that his cash is short.I turned over the sheet to find something more about the matter.There was nothing else about me or the bank ; but as I examined the paper, my eyes rested for a moment on the list of deaths.«In Springhaven, 15th inst., Miss Rachel Glasswood, 67 years.\u201d My aunt had passed away on the very day that I sailed from New York! How I cursed myself again and again! If I had not fled I should certainly have been able to pay my debt to the bank in a short time, for I was confident she had left me enough for this.I had banished myself from home for nothing.TI had suffered tortures which no innocent man can under stand or conceive of, and years of misery were still before me.I had made up my wind long before that honesty was the bes policy, and I even had a glimmering concep tion of something higher than this.I wa sure I should have been happier with porer ty.and hard labor for my lot, if I could only have been honest.How I envied Tom Flynn! His piety, which I had derided, seemed to me now to be the sum total of earthly joy.I do not believe in cant of any kind, but if ever a man was convicted of sin, I was, though I had not yet the courage toattempt to retrace miÿ steps.My wife virtually called me a thief.It was only the truth; I deserved the epithet, and more than that.I turned to the next paper.There was - nothing about me or the bank in it, and I : continued my search till, in a subsequent issue, 1 found anathon .The writer was happy to-assure.thepublie that the bank would not lose a dollar by the missing teller.1 was surprised at this announcement, for 1 was indebted .to the bank in the sum of thirty-eight thousand dollars.I could not understand it.TI turned to the stock lists in the several papers.The shares in the Forty-Ninth had been affected by the first paragraph, but the quotations showed that they had been restored bythe information contained in the second.I concluded that the bank had determined to conceal my deficit to avoid the loss of public confidence.But while I was trying to satisfy myself with this theory, a better one was suggested to me.My aunt died on the day of my de re.Within the week the substance of her will was known to Captain Halliard.She had left her whole fortune to me, and it was to be used in making good the iency in my cash.Of course Fad no idea how much she had left, but I supposed it was enough to satisfy the bank, or to pay the loss with the suns for which my bondsmen were liable, One thing was plain, that, if the bank acknowledged no loss, it would not proceed against me ; and I realized that I was safe from arrest while in Europe.I could find no further allusion to the missing teller in any of the papers.If the deficit was made good, doubtless my friends would labor to cover up my errors.As the matter now stood, the money in my possession belonged to me.1 tried to make myself believe that it was Aunt.Rachel's fortune.But 1 could not wink out of sight my blasted reputation, for, whatever the papers said, or failed to say, people would have their own opinions about my sudden departure.I was far from satisfied.If my financial record were explained away, 1 could not get rid of the consciousness of à my own guilt, which was positive suffering to me.I was convicted of my sin, aud I had even prayed to God for merey under my mise (To be Continued.) LOVED TO THE LAST; OR, LOST AND FOUND.CHAPTER I\u2014(Condinued.) She had tied the awkward sleeves down from its shoulders with knots of faded pink ribbon, taken from her own cap, and was holding it at arm\u2019s length with a broad smile of triumph, when the nurse passed the bed with her checked apron folded over some object that she held to her bosom.\u201c What Lave ye there, Mrs.Kelly, saving yer prisence \u2019 inquired Mary Margaret, holding her baby poised in mid air, and turning her kindly eyes upom the nusge.¢¢Tt isn\u2019t dead, sure ?\u201d \u201cThe mother is,\u201d answered the .nurse, nodding her head.Mary Margaret held her breath, and tears stole to her eyes as she stood up, trembling beneath the weight of her infant, and looked towards the pale face of the dead.* And the poor young crathur alongside, what has happened to her?\u201d imquired Mary Margaret.\u2018 She\u2019s as good as.dead ; don\u2019t you hear how she raves ?Mutter, mutter, she hasn't strength for more; Ml the doctors on earth couldu\u2019t save her.\u201d ¢¢ And her baby ?' asked Mary Margaret, filled with compassion, and hugging her own child fondly to her bosom.\u201cOh! that's yonder by the dead woman, as cold as she is I\u201d Mary Margaret held her child closer, and the tears streamed down her face.\u201cGive me a look at the motherless cra- thur,\u201d she said, laying her child upon the bed, and stretching forth her arms.The nurse hesitated an instant, aad then flung back her apron from the face of the infant.*¢ Poor thing, poor thing! how deathly it looks! what great wild eyes! how it stares at ome I\u2019 exclaimed Mary Margaret, sobbing.\u201cIts half dead,\u201d answered the nurse, lookimg dowm upon her burden with a callous smile ; \u201cit won't feed.To-night will see the end on\u2019t.\u201d 1 t glanced at her own sleeping child, then turned her brimming eyes upon the other.¢ Give it here,\u201d she said ; for both\u2014give it here.\u201d The nurse frowned and drew up her apron, \u201cthere's enough \u201cThe doetor must settle that.It's not my business, Mrs.Dillon,\u201d ske said, harshly.\u2018The doctor! Well, where is he ?Be quick and ask him, or let me.\u201d \u2018\u2018 When he comes in the morning will be time enough,\u2019\u2019 answered the nurse, preparing to move on.\u201cThe morning ! \"1 be gone afore that,\u201d persisted the kind woman, stepping a pace forward, and supporting herself with difficulty.¢ Let me have it, I say !\u201d The nurse jerked her arm from the feeble grasp laid upon it, and harshly bade the woman return te her bed and mind her own business.Mery Margaret tottered back, and set down upon the foot of ber couch.It'll die, it'll die, afore the blesssd day is over,\u201d she muttered, sadly, for her maternal heart ached over the orphan, ¢ Ar- mh, if the doctor was only to the fore !\u201d She ended this piteous exclamation with a joyful cry of \u201cThe saints be praised, here he is ! welcome às cowslips in spring !\u201d and, regardless of her feeble state, she arose, and stood ready to address the doctor as he came down the ward.The nurse uttered a sharp exclamation, and, advancing fiercely toward the bed, flung the famished child down by the sleeping babe of Mary Margaret.There, take the brat !\u201d she said, with an unnatural laugh.\u2018\u2018 I meant that you should nurse it all the time, if you hadn\u2019t teased one\u2019s life out about it.\u201d Mary Margaret did not answer, her limbs were trembling like aspens, and she sank upon the bed overpowered with fatigue.Drawing the little stranger softly to her bosom, she watched its great eyes turned upon her own, till, as if struck by the same mesmeric influence, the woman and the infant slumbered together, a sweet picture of helplessness and charity, a noble proof that no human being can find a place so humble upon earth, that some good to others may not be brought out of it.CHAPTER I.Late in the evening, after the scene we have just described, the hospital nurse, who had been an evil actor in it, stood with a candle in her hand in a closet or store room where the patients\u2019 garments were kept.From one of the shelves she took a bundle tied up in a coarse woollen shawl, and drew forth a long merino cloak.She folded the cloak cautiously around her, then, selecting a bonnet from & score or two that filled a side cupboard, she tied a thick veil closely over it and extinguished her light.The woman had evidently intended to disguise herself, and she stole like a thief down the dark passages of the building, avoiding the offices, and keeping close to the shadow whenever she came within the range of a light, like one who feared to be seen.At last she came out in front of the hospital.Here she paused, and, heaving a deep breath, walked more leisurely forward, drawing her veil closer, and folding the cloak over her garments more resolutely as she advanced.An omnibus stood at a neighboring corner ; she entered it, and, seating herself, subsided, to all appearance, into a state of passive indifference.The hospital nurse got out in Regent street and disappeared, atter walking half way down one of the cross streets.Again she was threading her way up through the darkness of a large building, divided into offices and rooms of various sizes, mostly untenanted at that hour of the night.The passages were profoundly dark; the staircase narrow, and winding in and out, with no regard to architectural rules; in some places considerably out of repair, while in others bits of coal and nutshells crunched under foot, and gave evidence of a general state of untidiness- perceptible even in the ark.At last the woman reached a door, at which she paused.A gleam of light came through a crevice over the threshold, and struggled around an iron key half turned in the lock, and through it came a faint noise as of some person moving within.Jane Kelly knocked at this door rather timidly, as if she were a little uncertain whether it was the place she sought.There was no answer.But the noise of a moving chair, and a shuffle of feet asifap- proaching the door, kept Jane Kelly stationary.After some delay, the door was parti- | ally epened, and a face looked through.\u201c Who are you?What do you want Why the poor crathar À 4 1 here with a veil on that nobody can see through ?Go away ! said a sharp, angry voice.\u201c You told me to come,\u201d said the woman, lifting her veil and bending forward that her features might be seen.sé Not at this time of night,\u201d cried the voice, which nowexhibited a slightly foreign accent ; and, without having really seen the face presented for her inspection, she was about to close the door entirely.«Youdon\u2019t know me?I come from the hospital,\u201d said the nurse; \u201cyou told me to come, and I\u2019m here.\u201d * Thehospital ! Oh! and in the night.Come in, come in.Has anything happened?Anybody dead-\u2014eh?\u2019 .The door was flung open more generously, and the visitor half-pulled, half-invited, through.\u201cThere, there, sit down,\u201d criedits inmate, sweeping a Jean, grey cat from an old chair with one arm broken, and\u2019 presenting it to her guest in a quick, eager way.¢ Any news !\u2014anything to tell?Why should you come so late! Why don\u2019t you k \u201c Yes, I've got news.Its all over\u2014\u2014\u201d \u201cWhat! Dead?Reallydead?But which of 'm?Not both! That would be too good juck !

Didn't I put on its cotton shroud myself?I marked the coffin, too, with my own hands\u2014letter B, with chalk.If you want to be satisfied, it\u2019s easily found, and can be kept till the mother is coffined.It'll save expense, besides being so imter- -esting.\u201d \u201c Expense I\u201d cried the occupant of the room, with a look of sharp enxiety., ¢ Expense ! 1 thought the institution bere that.Do they charge for putting a miserable baby and its mother into the ground 7\u201d ¢ No, but then most people like a single grave, you know ; it only costs a pound or two.\u201d (To be continued:) Agricultural.{This department is presided over bygentlemen of enlarged experience in all the branches of farming and stock-breeding.} At the public sale of Messrs.Carnaghan & Lawrie, at Toronto, February 15th, the Ayrshires were withdrawn after one cow was sold for $150.One Clydesdale stallion sold for $2,200 ; one for $450, and a mare for $1,200.Few buyers were present.Hints About Work.Keep a Note Book.\u2014Perhaps there is no business in which there are always so many beginners as farming, and these, whether new at the business or an old hand at it, should make a practice of noting things as they occur to him, or as they happen ; and a note book is handy to have in one\u2019s pocket, New Things are continually coming into \u2018notice.Now it is a new fodder plant, some new variety of wheat or corn, a new cross of some domestic animal, or a new tool.It is well to try any promising novelty in a small way, at first, to test its value.If successful, it is afterwards easy to add to the stock.The cost of Draining can hardly ever be less than it is now.Labor is very low, and those who have improvements to make, and have the money, or see their way clearly to repay it, if borrowed, could have no better opportunity than the present.Standing Water.\u2014A very important wark is to let off any water that accumulates upon the surface.This requires constant attention, and the use of the hoe or a shovel.\u2018Whether there is a crop in the ground or not, it is equally necessary to do this thoroughly, else the soil is soaked, and dries very slowly.The amount lost through water remaining upon fields would edch year buy for every farmer who permits it, a good peper and more books than he could well study in a year, Barn-y ards, especially, should be freed from water ; the wesh from the roafs should be carried off before it has soaked through .the manure and dissolved all the valuable parts of it, Live Stock.\u2014 When the coat is shedding, the use of the card, or smooth œurry-comb, should not be neglected.There is thea an irritation of the skin, which is allayed by brushing or carding, besides, the loose hair is removed and does not rub off on to the elothes.A teaspoonful of sulphur daily, to every animal, for a week or two, would be helpful.Vermin.\u2014As the warm weather comes on, tice and ticks become active, and annoy the, animals greatly.A mixture of equal parts oflard and kerosene oil, put on the back and brisket of cows, calves and sheep, will have a good effect.Horses that were hard worked during the winter, should have a little rest before the spring werk begins.The loose ¢omt should be well brushed out, and some linseed meal given in the feed, to help the shedding of the hair.wet, wash with water and some soap, and rub dry with a piece of woollen blanket.It will prevent cracked heels.As the days grow warm look out for galls, and wash the shoulders with cold salt water, Scrape the inside of the collar, and keep it smooth an® hard.Cows.\u2014Pure water, slightly warmed, with drink for cows that have recently calved.Garget may be prevented by milking, before the udder is hard and hot, give two drachms of saltpetre daily ; and directly after calving a drink of bran gruel, with eight ounces of Epsom salts, and sweetened with molasses.+ If the cow will not drink this, give it through the drenching horn.Prompt remedies are required for parturient troubles at this time; hut prevention is safer and easier than any remedy.Meadows.\u2014Grassland and pastures will be much improved by harrowing with a heavy harrow.Spread any fine fertilizer, that may be needed, befare harrowing.Old pastures may be thus renewed by the help of fresh seed upon the weak spots.Extraordinary Inhumanity.London Times, February 15.\u2014At the Petty Sessions yesterday at Slough, Bucks, Robertson Francis Morris, a farmer, living at Iver, near Uxbridge, and his wife, Janet Morris, were charged on remand with maiming and wounding Caroline Carter, à nurse-girl in their employ.The accused, who were defended by Mr.Straight, were several times bissed and hooted in court.The girl formerly resided with Ler parents at Richmond, and was taken into Princess Louise's Home at Wanstead.She entered the service of the accused in May, 1876.described various acts of cruelty which she said the accused had been guilty of towards her, and she now further stated that she bad been beaten with a walking-stick, that Mrs.Morris bad run a scissors, right through her band, had cut her head open with a poker two or three times, and strnck her with a shovel, Mr.Morris kicked her as she was going down stairs, and again as she was coming up.On Sunday week, inthe morning, after the kicking described, she left the house and went to a Mrs.Pigott\u2019s, and fell down four times on the way there.She was examined there, a policeman was sent for, and he took her in a cart to the Eton Unien \u2018Workhouse at Slough, where she still conti- uued an inmate, Mr.Morris once ran a steel fork in her band and once a silver fork.He left the steel fork in her hand, and ske took it out herself.She was not allowed to send her clothes to the laundress because there was blood about them.In cross-examina- tion she said that she should have left before if she bad been allowed to go.She was not allowed to speak to the other servants.Mrs.Monk, a housekeeper, was called, and proved that on some occasions the girl complained to her.Mrs.Pigott, the Matron at the \u2018Workhouse, proved that the girl was covered with bruises from head to foot.Mr.Dodd, surgeon, gave evidence as to the condition of the girl.When he firs saw her on the Sunday afterwards she was very weak and frightfully bruised, and her left arm was broken.The fracture could not have been caused by a fall, and it was not likely that the injuries LEY'S BRUSH WORKS, 18 and 20 Little St.Antoine street.If at night the fest are muddy or a quart of bran stirred into it, is an excellent | calving, a cow that has a very full bag.If Last week sho THE \u2018MONTREAL DATLYI STAR \u2018RUBSDRY, MARCH 4, 1877.had been selfinflicted.A haiddresser wag called, who gaid that the gisl's heir had bean pulled eut and had not been out.The Magistrate decided again to remand the prisoners for a week, in order to avoid a committal\u2019 for trial atthe present Assizes.Bail was refused.op me Montreal Five Alarm Telogaaph Boxes DISTRICT No.1.: Box No.LOCALITY.1.Custom House (North cormer.)
