it is to concentrate all power and authority absolutely in one centre, The Czar is the earthly Providence of the soldier and officer, as well as the embodiment of the military power and glory of his country.I have seen old officers go overcome with this mark of distinction that they went about for ten min- ates after like children, weeping, with the prired decoration in their hands, showing it round.half dazed.No system can be imagined more calculated to stimulate individual efforts to the utmost.Yet, with all thisspurring there is something wanting.It is the individuality and the habit of spontaneous action, which only the education snd modes of thought of a free people ofn supply.Whether it ba the long standing taint of serfdom, whether it be too much imperialism, the initiative is wholly absent.You tell the Russian what to do, and he will spring to it like an obedient child.In a year it never would have occurred to him to do it of himself.+ Fires.Quesre, Nov.6.\u2014A fire at three o'clock this merning destroyed the atabling attached to the house occupied by Mr.Partridge, on the St.Lewis Road ;

but I have no hesitation in saying that I received no knowledge directly or indirectly from them of their intentions in making such purchases; my business and my duty was to see that those loans were secured by sufficient securities, Q.Do you mean to swear that the directors or any of them never to your knowledge speculated in stocks with funds obtained fron the Bank?A.1 have no positive Knowledge of their naving so speculated.Q.Is it rot true that the Bank bas bsen in the habit of making loans agzregating a very large amount upon collateral security of Canadian and American stocks, including those known as \u2018* Speculative Stocks \u201d and that it censidercd itself quite entitled to do go?A.All loans made by the Bank, as I said before, are secured by securities which the law authorized it to take.I am at a Joss to understand what is meant by \u2018Speculative Stocks,\u201d as this applies more porticularly to the stocks of our leading Canadian financial institutions.Mr, Davidsan\u2014Your answer does not cover the questions.Witness\u2014I think I have most clearly.After some discussion examination proceeded.Q.What is the highest aggregate amonut in which the Directors have ever been indebted to the bank ?A.I cannot exactly say from memory because the amounts have varied considerably.Q.Give anapproximation ?À.At times, when our bankers insisted on our reducing our balances, some of the directors would invest in securities assuming themselves the risks of depreciation, and at those moments the amounts were consderable \u2014 say about seven or eight hundred thousand dollars.At other times the amounts were very much reduced, but their aceounts were not active as are generally accounts of a speculative character.They partook much more of the natare of investments.Q.In the event of a rise who would enjoy the profits?A.They, of course, as they would have to meet the losser if any mod Q.Upon what class of seeurities was is the habit of the Bank to make thase advau- ces to Direotors® A.Upon what I considered first-class security and first-class stocks.Q.How many Directors are there upon your Board?A.Ten.Q.Is it not true that you yourself caused the fact of the Bank intending to institute suits against the directors of the City Passenger Rsilway to be published in the papers?A Il don't remember anything of the kind.Q.Is it not true that the information contained ¢\u2018 must disgorge, etc.,\u201d which appeared in the Montreal daily STAR of 19th July last, now shown to you (paper produced), was communicated by you or soma other person on behalt of the Bank?A.I emphatically declare that I have no knowledge of that or any other newspaper communication before I saw it;

A.It appears so by the writ.Q.Is it not true that said item isa correct digest of the action of the Bank against the ex-directors?A.I do not know.I think that the article shown me corresponds with the action taken by the Bank against the ex-directors.Q.Is it not true that this action was referred to, and ils details given in all the city papers ; and that in the Montreal daily Witness of August the 4th, over a column is devoted to publication of the Bank\u2019s declaration?A.I believe so, but I deny having hed anything to do with those publications.Q.Did you yourself distribute any printed copies of the Bank's declarations to third parties?A.I may have given one or two.Q.Are yon aware of your counsel or the directors distributing them ?A.Iamalmost sure they did not, as the copies have never been out of my possession.I cannot speak for counsel.Adjourned till 10 a.m.Thursday.New Advertisements this pm Z THE QUEENS, TORONTO, ONT.neem EN a Reflnibaln§ The leading Hotel in the Dominion; with haud- some Passenger Elevator, thoroughly heated with steam throughout; patronised by Royalty and the best families.Prices graduated sinee 1874, viz.: $2.50, $3 00, $3.50; Rooms with Bath, &c., or Suite, $4.00 per day.McGAW & WINNETT, Proprietors.Montreal, 7th November, 1877.283-1y SALE OF A SAW MILL, &c.THE SHERIFF of Joliette will sell at the Church door of the Parish of Repentigny, on Wednesday, the 14th November Inst , at ELEVEN a.m., the SAW MILL PROPERTY, at Repentigny, of Messrs.CUSHING BROS., consisting of about two arpents, three perches and some feet, on the Queen\u2019s High Boad, ana a SAW MILL, Fngines end other Machinery, Booms, private houses and their dependencies, The timber limits on \"he Rivers L\u2019Assomption, Black, Ducharme, Maskinonge sud Lacowarreau, and in the townships of Ki'kenny, Wexford, Don- oaster and Chertrey, can be acquired by the purchaser on application to Messrs.BETHUNE & BETHUNE, Advoeates, Montreal, 7th November, 1877.263 DERTAKING in all its Branches.ROBERT ANGUS, 71133 Craig street.WIBE-FRAME TURKISH CHAIRS, the best Easy Chair in use.to order b; Made y ROBERT ANGUS, Upholsterer and Undertaker, 711 & 7114 Craig st.ORPERS FOR EVERY KIND OF UPHOLSTERY WORK and CURTAIN BANGING 3 romptly attended to.ROBERT ANGUS, Upholsterer and Undertaker, 711 & 711% Craig st M ETALLICand other COFFINS AND CABKETS always in Stnek ; full assort- mont of Trimmings, Orapes, âc.; First-class ROBERT ANGUS, Undertaker and Uphoisterer, 263 711 & 711%; Craly street.Bow Advertisements this p.m.Six O'clock P.M.Extra Edition.50 CABES OF DRY GOODS DAMAGED BY SOFT WATER, Part of tte se goods ave wet and part are quite perfect.The whole has to be sold THIS WHEK at unprecedentedy Low Prices: 10 ba.es trey Cotton (wet), only 4c.8 cates good Flannel Bhirting (wet), only 126.8 casts Scarlet Flannel (wet), only 15c.8 bales Groy Blankets (nut damaged), t0c per palr, 8 Lales Trimmed Hor:e Rlamkets (not damaged), worth at least $2.50, for only $1.25 each.1% cazes beautiful Plaid Flannel Shirtiag (quite perfect), worth 44 c, for only 20c.8cases first quality English Print, only Se.1 case of Towels, onty 3e.And reveral other small lotr, more or less da maged.Fur the price of all our Dry Gods, gat one of our Books.7 A.PILON & CO, 615 and 617 St.Catherine Street, MONTREAL, AT THE GREEN BALLA.PILON.L.J.PRLLETIER.$6.50 PER BARREL.= FOR SUPERIOR EXTRA FLOUR.SHANNON & CULLENS, 455 COMMISSIONERS STREBT, Orvrosrrs 99, Axn's MARKET, 255 + FURS AT COST!

Mr, John McDonald was reappointed Auditor.The Chairman read the report for the half-year, ending 1st of October, After the report was read Mr.J.H.Joseph asked what portion of the revenue was derived from tickets sold, and if any passes were issued ?The Chairman\u2014One third is derived from tickets.No passes were issued since the let inst., except to directors.Mr.Joreph thought it was time benevolence was done away with and the full fare charged.The tense of the meeting was in favor of leaving the matter with the directors.Mr.Joseph recommended that extensions sheuld be made oui of recerve.Mr.Bolton asked if the assets were taken at the same figure in the report as they were when the present directors had the valua- ticn made after their accession to office ?The Chairman\u2014 Yes.Mr.Edward Murphy moved the reception and adoption of the report.Mr.Murray seconded the motion.Mr.Thomas Caverhill objected, on behalf of himself and his late colleagues, to the adoption of thereport.The valuation that bad been made was false, and Ross\u2019 report referred to was erroneous in its facts and figures.He objected principally to the directors\u2019 recommendation to caneel the new stack, amounting to $600,000 at the time it was proposed to be issued by Mr, Frank Bond on behalf of the Bank of Montreal and City and District Savings Bank he was opposed to its issue, but he was now decidedly opposed to its cancellation, It was intended to carry out the extensions of the lines and he saw no reason for not going on with them.He moved an amendment against adopting the report.Mr.Charles Geddes, sen., seconded the amendment.He remarked that it was not possible for him to be present at the last meeting, but Mr.Caverhill was there however to vimdicate his late colleagues.He (Mr.G.) could not tolerate the report of Mr, Ross but he would take his own time to oppose it.He was not opposed, like Mr.Caverhill, to the new stock being cancelled, but he disagreed with Mr.Caverhill, in thinking it TUL heen an bl wonld AIEROTVE a) The Chairman said The stock had isn issued on improper representations before the shareholders, [+ Mr.J.H.Joseph proposed the reception ofthe report.Mr.Caverhill said it was a question for the shareholders to endorse the valuation made of the assets and hand them over afterwards to the Corporation at that valuation, The Chairman, said as a shareholder, he would not give the property at that valuation.Mr.Caverbill\u2014The compel you, A number of shareholders said no.Mr.McLednan said the eancellation must Le by resolution.Mr.Caverhill would not adopt the report as he did not concur in it.Hop.J.L.Beaudry moved, and Mr.David Lockwood seconded, a resolution authorising the directors to apply to the } rovincial Legislature for power to cancel 1he stock in question, and make such other changes as may be necessary.Mr.Geddes said this was like hurrying the matter through in haste, like the action taken to issue this stock.] The Chairman\u2014It is by po means analogous, as when the motion to issue the stock was brought forward it was sprung upon the shareholders like a mine, whereas it bas been common talk for some time that the course now taken was resolved on.Mr, McLennan said he would vote for reduction prorata in the stock when he would yrobably receive fifty per cent of his stock, which he would be very glad to have re- tuned.Corporation will (To be Continued.)

Miss Temple's gentle heart trembled at the thought of a conflict with her strong- minded cousin ; but she resolved to be brave for Laurence Drayton\u2019s sake.¢ They are your relations,\u201d he said ; \u201cand their position demands the most delicate consideration on your part,\u201d he went on, \u2018 but their place in your house should be defined distinctly.\u201d Julia acquiesced with him ; but she felt it would be difficult to define Margaret Grantley\u2019s place in the household now.In private as well as in public matters the growth of an abuse may be permitted till custom gives it a certain kind of right as unfair to acknowledge as to destroy.Miss Temple had no reasonable pretext for suddenly resuming the reins of domestic gov- erument after having let them rest so long in her cousin\u2019s hands.¢ I know I have been weak to let \u2018things go so far,\u201d she admitted ; ¢ but it seemed to save me such a deal of trouble.Anl you know a few years ago she seamed older to me than she does now.\u201d ss Because every year brings you nearer womanhood.while at Miss Grantley\u2019s age the work of time is not so palpable.Sh» is seven or eight and twenty, I should think.\u201d ¢ Yes, you have guessed exactly.\u201d * And she is a splendid woman, Julis, with a powerful mind, and & fine, imprassive pretence, But she will never beloved throughout the course of her entire life.\u201d Julia Temple lifted her soft eyes to hi face in surprise.\u201c Why?\u2019 \u201c\u2018 Such women never are.That is to say, they are never loved as women should be.A man would be proud of her\u2014admire her majestic bearing, her cold, brilliant intellect ; but the passionate tenderness which all women yearn forthe protective, caressive gentlemen like to give to those they love\u2014 will never be hers.\u201d : As he spoke, they came upon the subject of their conversation.She was sitting ona seat erected in a sheltered place for \u2018the, benefit of those who might require à -rest after climbing the steep range of hills, aad a single flash of her large deeply-set gray eyes made Laurence Drayton think she had.heard him.But her tone was\u201d superbly indifferent when she spoke.¢ Julia, dear, what a long ramble you have had, Eugene and I came out partly to look for you, and partly, I think, because Fugene wanted to play with Brutus.You do not usually forget to take your dog with you, Mr.Drayton.\u201d wo, fear ea bb dante Dim 26 teach him h6 is not always to coms with me, The powerful brute came bounding up with a stick in his mouth, leaping and ogr- vetting with a thorough participation in Eugene's enjoyment of the game ; the master of Brookdale had a schoolbey\u2019s 1eligh for a race up and down the hill.\u201c¢ 80, here you are, old fellow,\u201d he said, coming up the slope nearly out of breath.¢¢ Brutus is capital fun ; he knows me just as well as ever.\u201d «\u2018 Like his master,\u201d\u2019 said Drayton, ¢ he does not forget his friends.\u201d \u201c Will you surrender Miss Temple to me, Mr.Drayton ¥\u2019 \u2018Certainly, madam, with as much pleasure as is possible.\u201d It was not such a reply as any other gentleman would have made, and Margaret Grantley\u2019s lip curled slightly, She was purely a patrician in nature, and was not without the usual patrician errors.She liked plenty of homage, though she set no value on those who gave it, and the freeand easy journalist piqued her by his careless courtesy of tone, It was ss though he knew the kind of conduct che required, and studiously declined to give it.It wes as though he had said to himself \u2014 \u201cYou are a woman simply, after all\u2014a very magnificent and clever woman,and you put on lordly airs in a feminine way, and expect a man to lie at your feet,soto speak, as a matter of duty; but to me, my dear Miss Grantley, you are nothing but a splendid stndy\u2014something out of the com- mop, certainly, but still you are only destined for a woman\u2019s fate, and must call soma individual of the masculine gender your lord and master by and by.He scemed to have so measured her character on the first evening of their meeting, when her cutious gray eyes looked him through, to sce what manner of men it was whose coming was waited for with such pleasant expectation.Laurence Drayton and his friend Eugene walked behind the ladies arm in arm, Brutus following soberly now that play was over.*\u201c How 1-ng have your relatives been with you ¥\u201d\u2019 the journaliet inquired.\u201cThey came to the funeral of my poor father, and they have stayed ever since.You were out of Eng\u2019and then, Laurence.\u201d \u201c\u201cYes, unfortunately.I did not gat your letter till I returned three months agn,and I have been intendirg to come every day till now; but here I am at last, my dear Eugene, end Lere I wean to stay for the next ten weeks.\u201d ¢ For ten years, if you can, Laurence.\u201d \u201cI know, cid fellow, there is plenty of welcome ; but Brookdale is rather an ener- vatirg phe for 8 man whose watchword in this world is werk.Was act this cousin of yours in the civil service 7\u201d \u2018He had some appointment, but lost it, T telieve, threugh getting into d:bt, and being reported by his chief.There is not much mercy shown as a rule, and he had been irregular, perhaps ; but he belongs to the o)d family, you know, and [ like to deal lightly with his faul:s.Desides, I find him an invaluable fellow.\u201d \u201cIn what way ?\u201d \u2018\u2018 He mapages my affairs for me ;
