Provisions of the Measure.Orrawa, May 11.\u2014The Liquor Liognse bill was not submitted to the House yesterday, for the simple reason that it was pot ready.The procedure with respeot to this measure is open to oriticiam.It was premised as a Govermment uisasure in the speech from the Throme at the opening of the sossion ; after a month and « half had clapsed, the Premier admitted thnt the Government had no bill nor any basis for one, and moved ths appointment of a com- miitee, composed of members on both sides of the House, to frame a bill.\u201cThe Ovpori- tion refusing to aid in perorming a task which had been in the first place assumed, but afterwards shirked by the Government, the committees was, eventually, formed entirely of Conservatives.Tbe meetings of the codifities, and of its sub- committeo appointed jo draft a bill, bave always beca of tho * Siar chamber\u201d order.Some of the mania principles incorporated in tle bill have, Lowever, beco ascertained in one way or another and reported to you.The session is now almost onded,snd this vory important (and, as the Premier doelared at tbe opening of Parliament, very urgent) moasure has not yot made its ap- peurance in the House.Moreover, my bost efforts to obtain au advance copy of the bill or a summary of its provisions have proved in vain.So if the mea:nre becomes law (his session, it must bs rusued through Parliament and almost before press or puviic aro made scquaiated with its provisions.The iellowing parti synopsis or the bill appears in the (azctte:wbioh seems to have been specially favored with information on the subject :\u2014\u2014 \u2018It is proposed to place the control of licenses in x board to be composed of the county judge, wardou uvd a appeiates of the Dominion Government, in à | places excepting the cities of Montreal and Quebec, in which the beard will be composed of the recorder, judgo of sessions, and an appeiutee of the Government.Inspectors ef li- causes are te be appointed bv these boards, whose duty it will be to visit each licensed place at least once in three inonths, to ascertain whether the low is properly observed, and, is aduition to this smpervision, there would necessarily remain the inspeetors of the prewinocial governments, who are charged with tho duty of determining whether liquer is being soid by unlicensed parties or coutrary to tho law for the protection of the revenue.lhe board of commissioners it is proposed to invest with power to limit the number of lieenses to be grant ed within the limitation provided by the bill, bat the most important restriction perbaps is that which gives to a majority of the elesters in any distric: within which à licenre may be granted the right to limit or probibit the gramtiag of liconses.Fer the purpose ol the contemplated law, license districts are to correspond with the polling subdivisions in the Dominion Parliamentary ciootiens\u2014that is te say, they will com- pri~e sbeat two bundred voters, and in order to obtain a license tbe applicant for such must be supported by a petition sigued by at least ene- third the number of elestors.The number of hotel nnd saloon licenses in cities, towns snd incorporated villages is to be ene for every 350 of popatation up to 1,000, and ene for every additions! 500 of population.Thus, in Montreal the number of there licenses would be about three hundred.presuming that the number aliowed by law is granted.O! shop licenses tbe number is to be in cities and towus aad in the country one for sash 400 of population up to 1,200, and ome for each additional thousand of population.Theres may be granted by the board one further liceuso for Summer resorts, there are licenses for steamboats previded, but the fimportact restrietions made *respeet to these ate that under them liguer esn be seid only to passengers asd al meal tires.In all five classes of licenses are defined, as follows: Wholorale licenses for the sale of liquor in unkreken packages or in quantities met less than two gallens or one dozem quart bottles; shop licenses for the sale of liquor in quantities of not less than one imperial pia:, and not to be osnsamed oo the premises; hotel aud salen licenses for the sale ef liquor iu quaatities of net more than one quart and to be consumod où the premises, and, lastly, veszel licenses.No licease is to be granted for any shop im which other good: are sold.The meetings of the board of commissioners sre to be open to the public, and notices of all applicstisns \u201cfor lisenses are to be published, and a record of sacl license, the oonduet of the licenses, ete, kept.Hotels are defined to be in the country s public house having st least three bedrooms and necommodation or six horses and io cities and towns not iess than six bedreeur, and both hotels and saloons must bave provision for meals fer travellers, with the taeeption of a eertain number in cities and towns, i may be exempted frem this requirement at the discretion of the commis sieners.In addition to those provided ip the bill municipal conveils may prescribe further conditions for hotel licenser.Any applicant for a license who is refused such by the commisrion- ers as an unôt person 1s to be disqualified tor three years from obtsiving a license, and stringent provisions are framed to prevent disorderly ar mproper eonduet in any licenred piace.No part ef » saioon can be used fer the purposes of à eensert or dausing hall, and do hotel er saleen keeper is permitted to receive payment for liquor exoopt in cash or cheque.The hours of closing saloons and hotel bars are curtailed over the Do- minien to those prevailing in Ontario, namely from scvea o'clock om Saturday night until six o'clock on Monday morning, and from eleven o\u2019cloeic at night to six o\u2019cleck in the morning, on other days.An excollent provision is that pro_ bititing the sale of liquor to minors, while another clause declares that whem it is proved in open court Lhat may person wastes bis estate, greatly injures his health or interrupts the peace of his tamily by drinking, the judge may prebibit the sale of liquer to him for a period of ene year.A further proposed enactment of this charseter permits 1 husband \u2018 er the wife.and the parents and guardians of miners, in the.case of excessive drinking, te give notice in writing to a hotel or asloonkesper te prekibit the sale of liquor to the party preceeded azafust, and the licensee is required under pain of penalty to observe such motice.Stringent provisions against the adulteration ef liquor are aiso made.Only one appesl fram the desisisn of the sommission- ers is permitted, whieh can be made te a superior court Judge.It is proposad te bring the Act into foree on January 1st, 1884, exeept as respects licenses whien do not expire until a subsequent period, and exeept ns respects shop lisenres now in foree, whieh it is intended to exemp: from the operations of the Ast uatil May

Crime\u2014 She People Bosomiog Infidels.Boston, May 10.\u2014The Journal reporter who went to Pocamet at the time of the Freeman child-murder, four years ago, revisited the scene on Sunday.He writes that the shock to the faith of \"the adventists when God failed to interfere and restore the child to life resulted in a tendency towards skepticism, and now pearly all of those-deluded ones who breathlesaly awaited the resurrection during the funeral, and afterward at the grave wrangled over the open coffin, are unbelievers in even the fandamentäls'ôf Christianity.For some time alter the burial of the child some of Freeman's followers sought to comfort themselves and to answer their neighbors by asserting that they had simply miscalculated the time appointed for the resurrection.À few claimed that three uaya had been mistaken for so many years, but probably now all in their hearts are convinced of thejr great error.Some are still too proud to acknowledge their delusion, but probably none would again walk ynder Freeman's leadership.Qne of those who believed most strongly in \u201cthe Christ of the niuetesnth century,\u201d now says that Freewan's insanity began when he was converted, and that any one who believe, or claims, to believe, in miracles is just as insane as he was.\u2018lhe same man was aux- ious that Freeman should have a thorough trial, with inquiry tuto the cause of the insanity, in order that the world might learn \u201c\u2018what religion was good for in practice instead of in theory.\u201d Otliers are not so bitter.They simply state their uubelicf in any established.doctrine.One or two have drifted into spiritualism, and they claim to have visions and manifestations from frieuds who have gone.One only bas resumed worahipin the Methodist Church, irom which all were expelled during the religious excitement of which the tragedy was the culmination.The Advent meetings bave been abandoned, and probably none of the old band want Freeman to return.The other citizens, who are a pious, intelligent class, would, it is thought, tar and feather him if he should reappear ainong them.THE FISHERIES EXHIBITION.The Opening i» Louden.Loxpon, May 132.\u2014At the opening of the Fisheries Exhibition ia spite of the uniavorable weather, there was a tremendous attendance.The approaches to the temporary buildings were packed with carrioges and foot ugers at an early hour and long betore noen the twenty-three acres ot buildings were filled with spestators from alliparts of the world.The details of ornamentation and arrangement were uot complete owing to the unexpectedly heavy amount of work the preperations entailed, but the desorations were so mansged that they cons, oealed, in a large degree, the temporary ofects.The general effect was grand.The arrival of the Prinee of Wales was the signal Jor oontinued ap plaose and cheers.The royal party were taken threugh the hall of exbibits devoted te Grest Britain, passing thence into the departments whore were displayed the piscatorial treasures of Omnada sad the United States.These were given considerable attentien, aud attracte-i much favorable comment.Deputations of fishermen were drawn up aleng the routs, nod among the most picturesque of these wero the Indians of Canadas.Mr.Lowell, tbe U.&.Minister, joined the party with otherdiplomats.After viewing several ether exhibits the party returned to the dais, where the addresses of the committee were presented by the Duke of Richmond.lle sxplained the objeets of the exhibition, and said that the committees had kept steadily before them the faet that the exhibition was for the million, and it would be open several nights eseh week for the bone of the working classes, He Jremaly weloomed the Prinee of Wales and The Privee, reffiying, boped that the oxbibe tion would be the means of bringing te the notice of the pesple the latest and most efficient methods of securing the bounty of the streams, lakes and oseans.He dwelt oa the importanee of the lifesaving section of the dirplay, and conveyed the thanks of the Queen te ali the sountries represent - od.He was warmly applauded.Loxvos, May 13.\u2014At a banquet in the Fishmongers\u2019 Hall given in honor of the international fisheries exhibition, the Prinee of Wales said the contributiens of the United States to tbe exhibition were especially deserving of credit Mr.Lowell, replying to the toast ef the \u201cForeign Representatives,\u201d thapked the Dake of Edinbergh for the kindness with whieh he had propesed the toast, aad raid the kindness which he had met with in Eagland convineed him that he reprasented the eider danghter of England, ratber than a foreign ecun- try.NORTH-WEST INDIANS.The Creen on the War-path\u2014 A message ta the Eritisni efficern HrLExA, Montèna, May 13.\u2014The commandant at Fort Assinibeine has information that the Cres Indians are preparing for a general war.Three bundred lodges under Big Bear, Lacky Man and Little Pine are camped within 25 bniles \u2018of Fort Walsh, ready to enter Mon- tans to avenge the loss of the Crees in the last horse-stealing raids.The commandant has sent couriers to Fort Walsh demanding that the British euthorities prevent the Indians trom crossing the line.It is thought the first attack will be made on the (ros Vendres and the Assimiboines, causing s general going on the warpath and loss to the Northern Montana stock interests.A party of Crees a few days ago stole forty horses from the Benton & §¢.Louis Cattle Co, and are being pursued by two companies of cavalry irom Fort Aminiboine.A fight will probably result.The Edison Lightinx Station Now At ome of the busiest points in New Yerk where Fulton and Pearl

cur- ront as it varies with the lighting or extinguish ment of lamps in the distriet; as the current grows strenger 4 is eat of from the conductor ; and as it grows weaker through increased oon- su n, more current is introduced from the swiftly rotating dynamo-machines.The meters for the consumers are ingemiously devised, no mechanism varying in its movement with the strength ot a current has bees found practicable, so the Edison meter gives its results by an application of electroplating; by a nice division of the current just ome thousandth part is directed into a galvanic cell wherein are placed two carefully woighed pieces of sine; when there is no eurrent, neither is affected by tho solution in which beth are immersed; the passage of electricity, however, causes one piece to grow at the expense ol the other.Monthly the zines are removed acd care- tally weighed, and the charge for the light is calculated therefrom.To provide against tromble through treeziag, at the bese of the meter is a folded strip formed of two different metals, whish foreibly contracting with cold, at a temperature of 40° Fahr.mako à connection which ignites s lamp from which enough heat radiates to

foundation stone of the Indian « Inetitote at Oxford.\u2018The new institution is the outcome -of an idea of Professor Monier \u201cWilliams, Bodea Professor of Sanserit at Ox- fond, who has beeæ for some years profoundly .impoessed by the ignorance of Oriental Tongunges which characterizes the nation which governs India.The Institute is intended principally to prepare candidates for \u2018the-Indian-Civil Service, bat is also intended, dm the-words-of Professor Williams, \u201cto give effactive and trustworthy teaching in all süb- | Jocts that relate to India and its inhabitasts ; \u2018to promote and encourage Indian researches ; de oomcentrate and disseminate Indian \u2018Sdess by united effort and combined action.\u201d Ths importance of two races which mhatit the same country, understanding each \u201c okber\u2019s language cannot be overestimated.No _greater-barrier to unity of sentiment, unity of Jmepose and unity of action, cam exist than the \u2018difficulty of interchanging ideas.A man is always mere-or less suspicious of that which he doss.not understand ; two peoples may \u2018ve together of different races and \u201cdifferent religions, and scarcely recognize {he existence of any barrier between then, \u2018bat-if they are unable to converse with each æthez, the barrier is alwavs conspicuous ; they \"1\" Jay become intimately mixed, but they can Jl; mawer- become really united.The dual lan.| guage question is of just as much interes: in the Province of Quebec as in British India \u201cVe do pot quarrel with the sentiment of \u2018the French-Canadian people which leads them to cling to the language of their \u2018Face even at the sacrifics of their material in- rterests ; it is not a question for the Fieneh Canadians only, or even chiefly, English a \u2018speaking Uanadians residing in this Province must recognize the fact that Quebec has two + - Inngasges, both healthy and showing every évidence of prospective longevity, and that it is - almost as necessary for them to learn the one as the other To the great eredit of the French Canadians, be 4 mid, they are as a rule much better acquaint ed with the Kngiish language than the British \u2018md Irish are with the French tongue.Bat till the most conspicuous characteristic of each \u2018ace is its ignorance of the language of the other.The result is, not only a great incon- Fsnisnce but 6 tendency to alienate two peoples, .which the more they know each other, the better .(Shey will like each other.This is a matter \u201cvo worthy of considerable attention from the 44 Provincial gevernment and from all patriots of 4: both nationalities.Everything possible ; inhoud be-dane to encourage the ftudy of both \u201c Mnmguages.The exigencies of commercial life \u2018perbaps do more than anything else in this \u2018@rection at present, but the knowledge of French end English is necessary to all, and something more is needed.A -deowledge of both languages should \u201cbe made an indispensable qualification for the FOlvil Service, and for the service ef the govern- Wot inany capacity.Ths manicipal authoritias ; shuld also move in the same-direction, and the ; bensficial in more ways than one.ware that one of the first results rs s better chance of employment it, the pablio service than English speaking .It is a great mistake to regard \u201c§ificial appointments as rewards for being = i, 6f being English, of Trish, or for vot- this way or that.The most important be 3 about an official appointment is to Fo A5 sance the best servie for the public, seeing that the public speak v po-languages it becomes a necessity thg} public Mptvents should speak both langusges also.it is not the fault of the French Cana- vassapetitors-do-mot speak French.On which ide the fault is greatest may be easily seen at es of the City Council; nearly all the A Canadian aldermenspeak English, bnt if \u201c@myof the English or Irish aldermen speak \u201cthey do not often exhibit their mastery rmiding over a meeting where he is being \u2018addressed in French looks the very picture ol ES little incongruous for an English alder- to demand that the motion which 8 ben discussed for an hour, be 3 Miad'in English in order that he may understand what his confreres have been talking about.It doubtiess take time to improve the Council Un this respect, but in the meantime the Council 7Wbd met perpetnats the trouble among the wééficiale under its control.We believe, { learning both languages, but facilities po Wihted for learning them, and the Super- Autendent

the steps taken by the Philadel Couventien.Mr.C.J.Doherty, the President, oceupied the chair, and there was a large attendance.The Chairman baving explained, in detail, the steps taken by the recent Convention, at which he waz a delogate, raised the question as te whether this branch weuld centinue to go on as it had done, or affiliate with the National League, \"as it had been decided to merge the Land League into this body at the Convention The only condition of affiliation with the National Leagne was that the different branches should subseribe a dollar each year fer each member in good stand - iug, ad tbis entitled each society with a membership of less than fifty to oue representative at the Annual Convention, aud those with a membor- ship of over Afty te two delegates vach.Mr.Pureel! was of the opinion that if it was desired te have the mew organisation 8 represents- tive Irish society the co-operation of all the Irish sucieties of the city should be asked to assist in forming it.Mr.Donovan suggested that the president of each segiety should be placed on the executive committee, and Mr.Clerau preposed that a com- mitlee be appointed to visit the various societies to eulist their sympathies in the cause.After somu further discussion it was moved by Mr.Donovan, seconded by Mr.Cennaughton, that the treasurer be imsiructed to settle all debts and realize the assefs, forwarding the balance to Dr.Webb, Central Treasurer of the Loague.This gave rise to anéther discussion as te whether the Branch was not already consected with the pew League in view of the resolution of the Philadelphia Cenvention.It appeared to be the generul opinien, however, that the Branch was still eonuveeted with the League until the connection was dissolved by resolution of the memberz, aud it was decided to continue under the old constitution until arrangemeats eouid be mado with the oiher societies.The yuestivn was finally settled by carrying the foiluwing resolution on metivon of Dr.Guerin, seconded by Mr.Cleran: * That a committee of twelve be appointed to wait en the different Irish societies, in sub-cemmittees of two eaeb, to lay before them and expiain the programme adopted at'Philadelphia, aad represent to them the desirability of affiliating with tho lrish National Seciely of America, and formiug an exeoutive er governing bedy iu this city, to be

miraculous eseape form death by drowning ever cxpenenced by tbe hardiest voyager tovk place Saturday morning at Lacuine.le secins the tugbuat \u2018John MacLobald had towed Fy valuable raft of timber from Chateamgauy to the head of tne Lachine kKapids with the intentien of leaving it iu the Seuth channel.However.just as the raft had neared the channel in question the current, which bore takes a sharp bend, swept it arouod with terrible velocity to, wards the more dangercas and rocky Seuth Channel, whence eseape is rarely made.The strain was ro great that the hawser parted aud the raft was dashed dows the tortuous rapids st lightoing speed.The men us beard, 13 ia sumber, assembled on the front of tbe rait per- teetly powerless to save themseives {rom taeir imminent peril.They had uot proceeded fur, however, before a terrible shock was felt, the raft having struok à roei and parted in twe pieces.Tbe men still escaped unhurt and managed te raise a sail with the intention ot steering

PLAN OF PRISON REFORM.The Governamest Im«pector on the Pres ent systems.Mr.Walter Smith, Government Inspector of Prisons, was encountered Saturday afternoon by a STAR reperter at the St.Lawrence Hall, and in the course of a friendly eoaversation whieh ensued, Mr.Smith stated that he thought a penal reform was much necded in Montreal.\u2018* The present jail 15 much too smuil and there is not work enouyh for the prisomers to do.The magistrates kcep on sentencing men to hard labor when there is actually not enough hard laber for thew ail.\u201d \u201c But are they not set te werk breaking stone ?\u201d querted the reporter.* Yes, there is some stone breaking there at a Joss to the Government.I have been pressing on the Geverument frem time to time the establishing of an institution similar to the Central prison in Terèmto.Ihore, ail the prisoners de cnough werk to pay fer their keep, making brick snd at other industries.The ommoereial Hetermatory where the women are sent to is made spaying concern by being turned into an immense lanndry, the inmates doing the washing for the hotels, railway companies, etc.The Canadian Paeifio Railway have spoken about sequiring the present jail here as an extension to their workshops, and I would, if my plan was adep:ed, build a large prison outside the city limits mer some quarries and elaypits, where stone could be got out, brick ahd drain pipes made, and I would introduce other indadtries, which the outside manufacturers would net object to.I weuld have prisoners from all the outlying distriets sent in to work at the jail, and in this way they would be no cxpense to the Government.\u201d CORPORATED CONTRACTS.A Grew! Regarding the Weod Contract.A good dea) of dissatisfaction exists amongst somo of the leading sad most respectable lmmber men of the city in connection witb the manner in which the lamber contraet for the Road Depart: ment is énrried out and it is claimed that not only the eitizens are being subjected to à less but alse that the other firme who tendered for the contract are thereby being unjairly deait with.Itappears that the specifications for tamarae timbers required that they should be eight inches and upwards at the small end whereas tis cuntraot or who is now supplying the department is only furnishing tamarac floats or gaft traverses which do mnt measure more than fiverinches, and are not worth more than a quarter of the price of those sailed for by the department.The depart- mont has been notified of Lhe fast, but it appesrs that, 80 far, nothing has eome of it.Menawbile, the oiizens have to pay the piper.BUSINESS NOTES.Changes and Nettlomenta.Hdward Faateux, demier in fanoy

Monday next to consider Mr.Senecal's propositions.The interview, this mernisg, was of a most friendly nature, the committoe being apparently quite willing te accede to the demands of Mr.Sonecal.\u2018Lhe only discussion that took plase was on Sections 15 and 32, when \u2019Mr.Semeaal asked, at first, that the company be exempted from all taxes and licenses wnatever, until such time as they were in a position to pay à dividead of 8 per cent, when they would not only pay all taxes the City weald think proper to impose, but also pay all taxes in arrears {rom this date, the whole of .the earnings over aud above the 8 per cent dividend to be put aside for that purpese.Ald.@renier was decidedly opposed to this, while Ald.Besusoleil and Rainville thooght it Fhouid Le done.However, Mr.Semecal's proposal to return to the system of 28 tickets for $1.00 seemed to meet with general approval, and the discussion dropped, the chairman remarking that the oitizens would probably prefer not to have the special tax and get the tickets at the rate of $1.00 for 25.À plan prepared by the Comply of the propoe- ed improvements in the service was laid on the table, showing that, besides the present tracks, a .double track would be Inid through tbe whoie length o{ St.Catherine street.The track would be aoubied on Craig street from Papineau Square to Bleury street.A

would run as far ns Pine avenue.A siugle track would be laid en Windsor street from St.Catherine to Bonaventure street.Mr.Sonecal stated before the Committee that it was the intention of the Company to lay steel rails all along their line.The cost of the improvements is estimated at $400,000, for which amount a new stock would be issued.THE QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY REVIEW, A Grand Display Promised, The

behalf of Mr.-Benscal.th Bethume, Q.C., on behalf of Mr.Hatten, d that the matter bad already been referred br Mr.Justice Doherty to Mr.Justice Jotto, as having already been decided by him, and sugzest- ed that it would be saving the time of the Court\u2019 if the matter could be disposed of by Hon.Mr.Justice Jette.Mr.Lacoste insisted upon the case proceeding before Mr.Justice Loranger, and argument was accordingly entered upon, the honorable gentie- man contending that a letter prodused by the Assistant Treasurer of tHe Province on a subpena issued from the plaintiff would aid his case in establishing the ground alleged for the intervention.Mr.Bethune held that no reason whatever was shown for the delay, and read affidavits from Mr.Nichols, one of the attorneys of record, and Mr.Hatton, the plaintiff; setting forth that in their opinion the intervention was merely for the purpose of obtaiuing delay.Mr.Lacoste reiterated bis statements, contending that Mr.Senecal bad a right to rotain the bonds in question under a subsequent agreement with Mr.Hibbard.He also alleged that Mr.Hatton had acted on behal{ of Mr.Hibbard in resisting the claim of Mr.Senocal to the Govorn- ment subsidy.Mr.Betbaue interrapted Mr.Lacoste, and said he was in error, as Mr.Hatton in that instance represented the Bank of Montreal and that tbe subsidy was olaimed by the Bank as against the pretentions of Mr.Senecal, and moreover, as a matter of fact, the subsidy had been twice paid, once to the Nank of Montreal and once to Mr.Senecal.The Court intimated that judgment would be given alter recess.Mr.Justice Loranger on ascending the Bench in the First Division vf the Sunerior Court this afternoon anmounced that he woall not be able to give his deeision watil to-morrow morning, on the question for adjournment, raised by the defence in the case of Hatton vs.Seneeal.His reason for this was that be had been informed that the same question had been raisod at un earlier stage in the

Phœniz, and alse the London Assurance corporation.By a recent ap|:raisement the value of the machinery had beeu fixed at about $10,- 000, and the owner offered to take this sum from the cempanies, but they claimed a salvage of 33,500, and the London Arssurante corporation refused to pay anything, alleging that they beld wo risk in the coucern, ns Thomas was supposed to bave® anpropriated tho momey set aside to pay the premium for renewal, Iu view of these sonfl: - clements, a recourte to law was almost inevita Finally after much discussion it was reso.vod to submit the matter !o appraisement, and the result was that after two days\u2019 examination the appraieerr deckied that the damage tothe whele machinery was about $7, 6JO.A further arbitration will probably determine what portion of the property is covered by the insurance policies.Legal jrocecdings aro being instituted against some ol the directors by shareholders, arising out of the recent insoivency of the company.HOCHELAGA
