15.\u2014The Porte hag communicated te the Ambassadors a fresh note, regretting the warlike preparations of Greece, which are bringing trouble upou the peace of Europe; aud to terminate such a state of affairs, which is disastrous both to Turkey and Greece, the Powers am invited to sud instructions to their Ambassadors at (on.stantinople fbr a European Conference.The Forte hopes a pacific solution will thus be at.thincd.The note has created a good impression, Reports have been received at the Forvign Embassies here that Greece intends attacking Turkey about the end of January, l'ants, Jannagy 15.\u2014Barthelmy St.Hilaire bas instructed the French Minister at Athens to declare that the Berlin Conference conferred no rights upon Greece, and that if Greece persisted in to war she must not count upon the support of France.The Paris Temps counsels the Powers to concert a solemn collective declération that Greebe has misconstrued the bearing of the decisions of the Berlin Conference, and defining their real character.The Temps says such declarations would give the King of the Hellenes the power he nceds for resisting the popular current.The Vienna says it is now proposed that the Powers shall take an identical step to avert war.; LepSnox, January 18.\u2014Telegrams from « Athens aennounes that yesterday's evening papers bighly approved the reported verbal re-

Wahsatch about the heads of Little and Big Cotton Woods sine Christmas, The mountains surrounding the ming district of Alta are steep and high and trees have been cut off.The tramway sheds of the Wahsatech and Jordan Valley Railway have been swept away at several places for five miles below Alta, rendering ingress or egress almost impossible, Two weeks ago a snow-slide carried away a man named Darley.A continuous storm increased in fury with the opening of last week.Ou Wednesday night snow fell in slects, and the wind became a luuricane.A slide carried away the flagstatt over a house and 400 feet of railroad sheds were swept across Flat Creek to opposite the moun- tam.Lately another slide passed over Victoria nnd Imperial House, burving two meu who dug their way out in ten hours.Continuing it swept away Grizzely boarding house, in which were Mr.and Mrs.Jonathan Hosking, and four children, Charles Simons, Robert Howarth, sud Evan Morris, Of these, Mrs.Hoskins and daughter, Jane Howarth, and Morris, were killed, Another slide smashed and buried the Toledo Works, and a boarding house, killing Charles Barbridge, and Frank Daporte.On \u2018Fhursday and Friday, work stopped at the principal mine, and wany men left for the valley.The storm continued and increased in fury, the wind blowing a gale and piling snow just over the crest of the hill north of Alta on all sides.other slide, halt u wile wide, on Friday night, which would have completely demolished Alta, but wus partially diverted by a flat area just above the head of Main street.It struck a large, heavily-built stone store in which five men gathered for safety.Two sleeping in the gecond story were thrown ont, comparatively unhurt.Three had taken refuge in the basement, and built a fire\u2014Jno.Fitzgerald, P.B.Lec aud Wm.Hollingshead.The house was crushed in on them and fired from the stove, and they perished.Richard Williams and John Washington, who remained looking after the Job Lawrence property, with instructions to | sleep in the tunnel, are missing.The avalanche swept away every building owned by the Job Lawrence Company, with their tramway, It buried the Buffalo House, but three men had retired into the tunnel, and were rescued exhausted.Fifty péople came down last night, leavin about twenty, who, for various reasons, could not get away.\" The trip down was fearful.They left home with nothing but the clothes on their backs.Women wallowed through the snow as best they could, the men carrying the children.There remains enough mountain slope still andenuded to complete the destruction of the town amd it may slide at any moment, Eight miles of Upper Big Cottonwood are said to be one huge slide covering everything.À big slide in Mayfield Guich blocked the creek for 400 yards, and made quite a lake.While there is no loss of life yet reported from Big Cottonwood Mountain, many are leaving the canon as fast as possible.When the snow becomes deep and heavy on the steep mountain slopes, an avalanche may be started by a party wading across their face or by the concussion sometimes of a blast.IRISH AFFAIRS.Obstruction Tactics in the House of Come

provisions.They vary from two to ten , dollars for cach infraction.To the employers who break the law this will scuterly som a | very terrible penalty.The Bill, however, in its sunitary provisions and in creating inspectors, is undoubtedly thorough sud practical, and with the amendments we have suggested will prove very Leneticial.It should be added that children under ten years of age are sbsolntely prohibited from working aud those between that age and fourtecu years must attend sshoel during sixteen weeks of the veur.We would j Suggust six months as y prefemble term.How ever, in the Committee, to which this Bill will be referred, thorough consideration will be given to all these details NOTE AND COMMENT.Mr.Blake's Montreal meeting was a ticket.of-leave affair\u2014those who had no tickets were compelled to leave.\u2014 Toronto Muil.If the great English landlords do not foresee what is waiting for them in the immediate future they are short-sighted men.\u2014New York Sun.© : : Very little boys have started very big fires beforo now, Greece is a little country, but Greece way set Europe in a bluze yet.\u2014 New York Sun.Wendell Phillips says that no reform, moral ! or intellectual, ever came down from the upper | classes of society.Bui nobody questions the | ! blue Llomd in the veins of Wendett Phillips.\u2014 Boston Hevald, © Nodoubt the Laud League is costing the Crown u great deal of money, but if that leads , 10 sume measure of justice being meted out to the tenant class of Ireland, much good will result, où the whole, from the expenditure, ;

or we must accept the doctrine that in matters solely affecting Ireland, Irichmen must be the best judges of what is to their advantage.There is no third course, and the sooner we realize this, the better it will he for us.\u2014 London Truth.Canada has now a debt of something over $200,000 006.It was 199,125,323 last July, sud projected public works will largely increase it.This is larger, in Proportion to wealth, than the debt of the United States, and it will be an argument ou this side against the annexation of Canada.It is no argument, however, agninst reciprocity treaty, which would be ndvantageoux 4.to both countries.\u2014 Boston Herald.AN great popular movementsare attended more or less with breaches of the peace and local outrages, and it ia by no means to be ex- rected that Ireland should be an exception, owever much these are to be deplored.It is honorable to the present lender of the Irish hosts that he deprecates violent measures to promote success, and that he boldly invites examination on the subject.\u2014 Boston Post.dn the long run English sense has always triumphed over English sentiment.England may\u2018 be, and probably is, thoroughly Radical at thé present moment.But because it is Radical there is no reason to make ns think that Englishmen have divested themselves of that respect for law and order which is the heritage of their history for that they have suddenly changed thejr conceptions-of the principls lich soulet y ean bo chified St Londo Torta, While Canada wants al] tho bumigrants she can get, there will be a good deal of risk in bringing none but lish peasants.They know little about farming, and as has frequently been pointed out by those who ought to know, they are lazy and drink more than is good for them.This may be owing to their.unhappy condition of servitude, which crushes all ambition out of them.Nevertheless, it appears to be the fact, wo that the experiment of converting them into Canadian farmers, will be watched with a good deal of interest.\u2014 Toronto Telegram., The Liberal éreed in regard to our Colonics has always been that they, not we, benefit by their connexion with ux, and that they are free to maintain or to break off that connexion.1 know of no more reason why we should annex tho Boers than that the Boers should annex us, exéépt that might makes right.ing Lord Beaconsfeld\u2019s tennre of office, Liberals agitated against all these Imperial abominations.\u201d Now ta Liberal Government has succecded that of the Jingo crew, we must be true to ourselves, and, wherever it be possible, reverse: a policy that we have declared to bo wirkad, unwise;

ærious desire of the Irish nation, apd that if * the land question is settled satisfactorily it will be still less so.He, moreover, expresses an opinion that the Irish temperament would make havoc tu a local parliament.Disorder would prevail.A false commercial sys- ten would be sought to be inaugurated to develop Irish industries.Bounti subsidies, | \u2018 een A i > | tion held its regular fortnightly meeting in the grants would be given, apd woney would be accordingly freely borrowed.Then a cry would be raised for a protective tariff ju the interest of ! : r $ ! ! , munirated an interesting and complicated case : and attended to by a physician.Irish industry ;

done.Since the date some years ago when the estate first came tuto my hands {at which time if I had chosen to defraud 1 could have appropriated $25,000, as that amount was in bank subject to my private cheque, with the consent and knowledge of the other trustees), feeling my own credit to be good, and requiring funds, without any defraud, 1 utilized several sums, upou which I paid fen per cent interest.About two years ago, the matter preying upon my mind, wrote to one of the trustees, Mr.- W.K.Hepburn, the gentleman'who instituted the proceedings agninst me, stating all the facts, and

GERMANY AND TUE JEWS.The Jewish Question in Germany as it Appears 10 A Distinguished Professor of Geneva.Professor Carl Vout, of Geueva, writes as follows in the Frankfurter Zsitung concerning the Jewish persecution mow going en in Gere wany : * Wherever 1 met with Jews T found their cqudnet no life the same.They are 1udustrious, intelligent, frugal, at times to excess, chutita- ble, bitte disposed to violence or crimes aud nut addicted to drink.They arcaccused of lacking dignity, of being obsequious aud cunning in trade.Ou the whole they have the good ual ities qud \u2018faults of highly avilized nations.The picture which Europe would present if jwo- pledexqlusively by Israelites would bea strange one, 1ere would be no wars, aud conxequent- ly the moral sense would not be so frequently outraged as 1t now is; millions of men would not Le taken from the plough, the wirkshop and the counting house to bleed in buttle ; public debts und taxes would decrease ; sciences, letlers and arts\u2014especially music\u2014would be highly cultivated ; industry and commerce would flourish ; felonious assaults would be of rare occurrence und crimes against property seldom accompanied by violence ; owing to the effect of gun and regular labor combined with econo- y wealth would largely accumulate\u2014wealth that would be devoted to noble charities ; there would be no conflicts between church and state, except perhaps in affairs of little import ; Lut unfortuntasly thisie \u2018would be considerable bribery and little firmness exercised by public _officers.Marriages would be frequent, vontract- ed early in life and y respected.Asa natural result the evils produced by immorality would be almost uakoown.These characteristics, together with a few good hygienic rules, would produce a beautiful and healthial people.Births would be numerous, the average duration of life would be longer, and the population would rapidly increase.\u201cNo great effort of the imagination is required in drawing the foregoing sketch, as 1 is founded upon well established facts.Bur | hasten to add that a commonwealth thus formed \u2018would lack vitality.If only a few of the descendants of the ancient Greeks or Lomans, the Cantabues or Celts, the Teutons, Slavs or Huns were left in Europe or the adjacent countries then the immense Israeltish population which we imagined would soon be subjugated, rrushed and plundered.The greater their wealth the quicker their pillage.The more beautiful the race the soouer would they be treated like the Circassian women and the young prisoners who once sat in Babylon and wept.}n short, the supposition of a large, highly civiliged\u2014i.e., very humane, very meek, very intelligent and very rich\u2014population, without plumlerers and despots taking advautage of it, isas little in accord with known facts as the hypothesis of a continent inhabited by herbivorous animals without birds ur beasts of prey.(ine could cob- struct theoretically a highly civilized commonwealth having nothing in common with barba- nism: but this would not be a pertent state, for such a society could not offer any resistance.** How can we account for the fact that this small, world-wide scattered Jewish community possesses virtues aud vices which so admirably represent a progressive state of civilization! Certainly uot by the usual theories of phuloso- phers aud historians, \u201cIf religion alone would determine the character of Jew and Gentile, we might expect to find the reverse of what we really see.The Israelites follow the Old, the Christians the New Testament.The Old Testament promotes roughuess of manner aml injustice in î An Illustrated sample sent to all on rect of 6 cents or age.The author refers, by permission, to linn, P.A, BIS- PELL.M.D., President of the National Mcdical Associa- on.Address Dr.W.EH.PAR- HEA KER, No.4 Bulfinch et, Boston, Mass.Tho author may be consulted on all diseases rcquirng oki THYSELF and experieuce.> _ 233x Lancy Goods.NON CTU NAS mes TO ARTISTS, ARCHITECTS, ALWAYS IN STOCK A CONPLITE ASSORTNENT OP Winsor & Newton's Artists\u2019 Reguieites.Wbatman®s band-made Drawing Papers Sagar's and Winterbottom's Tra Linen, either Glazed or Dull Back.w:dtd 38 and 42 inches.Hand-made and continuons Drawing Paper, mounted op Linen, from 35 to 36 inches wide.Ckesterrgan'e Metail:c and êteel Papes and Land Chaine Boxwood and Ivory Scales, dc.| Mrssts.SCHLEICHER & SCHULL of UREN, PRUSSIA, Sole Manufacturers of the Colebrated SAND-GRAINED Axt GRAINLES® DRAWING PAPE.LBATHER avo DULL BACK TRACING PAPERS a Have appointed us !
