these same Probibl- tivnists Lave never given tbe subject à serI- vu-thouzsbt.Very many of your readers will doubtless properly appreciate the value aud character of such thougutlessness.As It is sotue time stoce wy rst letter appeared, let me now restate calegorically my positions, and then as shortly as may be crit: ze your correspondents\u2019 contentions.Freedom 1s that condition of society in which the individual enjoys the liberty or 1s free to satisty any desire not necessarily iujurivus to society.t has not been proved that the temperate induleence in iutoxicatinz liquors is detrimental to the highest moral, mental, and muscular efficieucy of the individual nan, or vf suciety.Theretore to forbid Lhe tein- purate indulgence of this desire is to assail the principle of liberty, which, iu à societ which prulesses to govern itself in accoud- ance with this prineiple, and which owes its prosperity to the growth oi this principle, is dangerous, is unjust aod 13, therelore, 1 the true sense of the word Unmoral.That the local option acts now in existence are thinly velled class legislation atid are uatair as permltiing the temperate rich man to obtain drink waile they forbid the -alue privliege tw the temperate poor man.l'bat to reader a now legal occupation criminal and punish the parliament created vcriminals with swilt ruin is public robbery.That so far where this l\u2019robibitional injustice has been tried it has failed as an efficient preventive for drunkenness and has not, therefore, even the comparatively poor plea that it is a thorugh success while at the same time it has brougbl io its train aod intensided a ouwber of well knowu social evils.Such are my positions; let us now examine the criticisin to which they have boëun suv- jected.Noone has so far coutroverted inv detinition ot trendom, or a+ iL 1s more usually designated, the liberty of the subject, therelors it may i the meantime pe assutued to be a sound definition.My ~ecoad position that Lhe ternperate use of liquor is no.necessarily injurious, your correspondent \u201clegyp\u201d mee by the very common argument that, to put it shortly, a huimnvber OF emivent authorities declare alchohol to be à poison 1f vou take enough of it.Tunis I añ quite w:llius to allow, but it does Bot validate my position, for, like a great mauy other cases, it only shows that tu abuse of a good Lou may become highly injurious aud even taal if carried too far.Let me iilus- trate tue weakness of this argument by the two exalnples of tea and tobacco.It is well | known that numbers ot go d Women, perhaps some of our lady ptonibitiouists, seriously injure their constitutions by intem- perauce Iu Lea drinking, sod still more men by intemperaoce 10 tovacceo.Yet so far wo are not asked to believe thal the temperate eajoyincnt of tea anid tobacio are necessarily mjurious to tbe huinan rac~.This argu- tuent, however, applied to the liquor tratlic is most eff .ctively and practically met by asking ourselves the question as to how many of these tnen who have been tbe most conspicuous 10 history as carrying human energy to the highest point have been total abstainers.IE the vast wajority of our human giants have not Iallen within this category, then it Is obvious Lo ocdinary understanding that the temoerate use of abetolie liquors is not uceessarily injurious to the race.Is, then, the prohibition of this not necessarily injurious 1ndulgence Witerterence with tie liberty of the subject ?Your correspondent, Mr.Campbell, as well as \u201cTegyp.\u201d thivks not.As the former -cems to tue to fall into rather a common misapprebension of iny contention on this potut, [ shall carufully try to show Îts essential souvdness.| should be, as a true radical and democrat, the last person to deny the legal right of the majority to override the uunority.Lut it is quite open to me to show that the exercise of this legal right in such or such direction is a moral wrong.Now, | pol that th> legal right of tbe majority to intertera with the liberty of the subject, if acted upon, becomes a moral wrong.But, your correspondents answer, the majority must interfere in certain ways with the liperty of the subject on the principle ot the * greatest happiness to the greatest uwibor\u201d If tos Were so, it, would not necessarily show that the majority was not a wrong doer, uniess indeed your correspond- ebts lay Jowp the principle that the majority can duo.no wrong.But a careful consideration of my detinition ul liberty or treedom will show that the instances in which itis alleged that society interferes with the liberty of the subject are not open to this charge, and are not analogous to the Prohi- Litiomst demands.Lat us test this by Mr, Catnpbell\u2019s instance of compulsory vaceina- lon and Tegyp's instance ob licenses.Nu one desires to have the smallpox, and, as Mi.Catopbell truly says, the preponderance of fact and opinion declares tlunt vaccination is an absolutely necessary safeguard against smallpox; theretore so- viety cails où the individual to submit wo vaccination où pain of doing an injury to soctity, which is not liberty bat license up- der auy known foriu of government If, however, as is contended hy many, vaccination does not surely prevent sinalipox, and ou the\u201d other hand brings almost or aito- gether as great ovila in its train as smallpox, Lhen is compul-sory vaccination an undue 1n- tertereues With the liberty of the subjent, ns itis not esseatial \u2018o the safety of suciety, and those who consuler such to be the prove eu fact have a perfect ight tw eon- demn it as unjust.On the assumption that the former contention is [true and that soclety ds justitied in compelling vaccination 4S a safeguard against siualipox, why has aociety not the right to compel total nbstinence frorn liquor in order to stop drunkenness.First of all, because strong drink is not, as smallpox is, necessarily injurious to society | secondly, because no nan ¢an by usual restraint tree himself or anciety from the risk he incurs by his refusal to bee vent whereas moat men do, apd if moral respous bAitv is not à de lustfon the mnss of men cau bv the exercian of self-restraint secure society against the abuse of strong drink.Have soma drunk- pere Poisebded or lost moral responal- ardenever | bility?- Certainly, and equally.go have somo thieves never possessed or lost moral responsibility.Our philanthropists have no however, yetdemanded the suppression of roperty as a meas of suppressiug rubbery.four correspondent \u2018l'exyp,\u201c however, considers 1 have contradicted mysoll ou this uestion of Uborty, whoa I do not object to licences, aud further states that Prohibition is the law in Cunada, the U.A.aud Great Brituiu.Then, why this demand for what is already in existence?It appears cn examination, however, that \u201cTegvp,\u201d with a curious appreciation of the value of language, uses the same word to \u2018designate what bo Las got but does not want, and what be bas not æot but does very much want.The Prohibition which be has got is the right which society assures to regulate in the interests or soclety certain legitimate occupations and pleasures under certain circumstances.It rugulates but does not prubibit the manufacture and sale ot liquors, of yuupowder and dynamite, ote; the butchoring and the sale of meat; tho killing of fish and gawe, the keeping of hotels, teinperance and non-teinperance, and so on.Bocisty's ineans of so regulating these occu- pativus that they shall not under the circumstances injure society, is Lo issue liconses of various kinds.As no one has a right to injure souiety, I fall to see that regulation of an uceupation is equivalent either to a necessary lufraction ot the liberty of the subject, or, as pretended by \u201clegyp,\u201d is a prohibition of the occupation.For society to require me to drive or walk to the vight or left, as the case may be, is neither to interfere with my liberty of driving or walking nor to prohibit my doing the ous or the other; aud so for socinty Lo require me, in selling liquor under certain conditions, to observe certain regulations, 18 n=ither necessarily to intertere with my liberty nor to prohibit iny occupation.The importance of the principles at stake in this discussion must be, Sir, my apoloxy for the length of this letter.I hope shall be able tu avswer the criticism of my other positions more shortly, snd remain RosweLL FISHER.Prohibition, i3.) To the Editor of THE STAR: _ SIR,\u2014In my former letters I have en- deavured, with what success vou and your readers may judge, to show that the position taken vy probibitionists is not both \u201cwrong and weak,\u201d and that prohibition has not \u201cfailed in the past as an efficient remedy for the evils it seeks to cure,\u201d as alleged Ly Mr.Fisher.We have now to deal with the question of compensation to the liquor trafickors in the event of their licenses to sell intoxicating drinks being re- tused.Let us keep clearly before us what prehibitionists want.We do not want to close public houses and hotels.These are necessary.All we ask is that the sale of intoxicants be prohibite!.Public houses can be carried on without their ald.They can be carried on successtully and profitably without them.In the first place, have the publicans a legal claim for compensation supposing their liconses are withheld?Mr.Fisher does not allege this, possibly, very well knowing that no legal claim can be substantiated.If, as I presume, the judges and authorities on this side the Atlantic take the view ot the license laws which has been taken by their brethren in England, then the publicans and brewers are debarred trom enforcing a legal claim.There is no vested interwst in a license.It is in the option of the licensing authoritie: to renew or to re- tuse to renew any liceR:* however old it may be.Indeed the word \u201crenewal\u201d 13 a misnomer and has given rise to the generally received opinion that a man with a license, against whom the police have no charges, has a right to demand a license every year.No license is ranewed but each year a new one has to be issued.Lord Chief Justio® Cockburn says: \u2018The justices have the same discretion to refuse a renewal as they have to refuse to graut a new license.\u201d Mr.Baron Pollock, and with him concurred Mr.Justice Lopes, says: \u201cTho notion thut there was a property of the iandlord in the license could pot be considered as sound law.\u201d Mt.Justice Stephen says: \u201cThe legislature says, * when we talk of renewal we do not mean that, but we mean a new license granted toa man who has had one before.\u2019 It says, \u2018Do not suppose that we mean a renewal, but the granting of a license by way of renowal.\u201d\u201d Mr.Justice Field says: \u201cIn every case in every year there is a new license granted.The legislature recoguizes no vested right at all in any bolder of à license.\u201d Mr.['homas Nash, counsel to the Liapnsed Victuallers Association, agrees with these decisions, and recomuends his friends to avoid the use ot t phrase \u2018vested interest,\u201d \u201cas it infuriates every court from the Queen's Bench downward.\u201d So that we may conclude that the idea of there Leing any vestad interest in licenses is a burst bubule, brixht and beautiful whtle it lasted, but now vauished io thi air.Then we must cousider the claim for compensation from another standpoint.\u201cSociety,\u201d wiites your correspondent, \u2018has for agus condoned the offence of making and sulling intoxicating liquors,\u201d and therefore, ne argues, \u201cin accordance with the dictates of comumon honesty, society should compensate thuse whose property (7) it is obliged to contiscate 121.\u201d Well now, sir, let me placs a caso before Mr.Fisher such as might arisv, abd bas arisen under the present laws.Suppose a license holder applies for a *\u2018re- nowal\u201d of his license but the authorities decide that, in their opinion, the necessities ut the peighborhood are fully supplied by other licenses and retuse him à license for another year.Who compen- sales the license holder, and who compen- sutes the brewers and distillers, whose productions he purchased, and who, consequently, suffer a reduction in their output through his ceasing to buy ?Io this business, 8s is very well known, the rule is that the fewer the facilities for procuring the drink and the less drink is procured, or, in uther words, Lhe suppl yargely creates and coutrols the demand.ere is a gross case of \u2018confiscation : \u2019 of confiscation, not by a majority ot the people, but by a minority, a lev men ho are appointed to license.Would Mr.Fisher charge them with obvious dishonesty.!f not, how ovuld he reasouably lay a charge of dishonesty against a majority of the people ?If an appeal be made at all, it must be addressed, not to the bouesty, but to the gvuerosity of the public.Even then, it seems to mo, it will be difficult to make out a good case.For years an earnest agitation, dauy growing more carnest and emphatic, dally receiving accrotions from amongst the bost educated and most enlightened proles- sion aud classes, has been carried on against tho liquor traific, and Le must have been iudeed blind to the signs of the times who could not furesee in the near future a large dinunution, if not a total suppression, of liquor licenses.The vendurs of strong drink have, years ago, received notice to quit, and it Is uot our fault if they have persistently refused to take any precautions in anticipation of such à contin- geucy, which every year grows less contingent and more certain.Who will be toblame, Sir?We, the Probibitionist party, who have spoken with no uncertaib sound?They, who have been warned and urged to provide against the day when their licenses will ceases but who have stopped their ears to the warning ?Or those advocates of theirs who bave patted them on the back; told them to cheer up, to hold on to their \u201cvest- od interests,\u201d and flight out the battle to the bitter end ?st us put it another way.Here is a man who has obtalued for a number of years a licease, i.e., be bas obtained from Govern- meur a privilege, denied to the majority of bis tellows, of making money in a certain fashion.At last, this privilege is withdrawn.He balances up his accounts and flnds that, owing to this privilege, he has made money faster and easier than his less favored countrymen, and has a good balance In hand.For what would you compensate him ¢ Unless you hold that the poesession of wenlth is in itsell an ovil, surely you would nut compensate him for haviog so much money.But, suppose he finds that alter paying all his workin and household expenses for the torm of years he has held the license, he stands exactly as he stood when he recvived this special Governmental privilege.What plea for cuinpensation can be bring forward ?Ho hus lost nothing if he has gained nothing.But suppose he finds his balance sheet shows a deficit.Sunould he not be only too grateful to a paternal majority for depriving 1itn of the chance of losing morv money ?His is the only case in which thero is any show of reasou for compensation, and, if he can suo stantiate his clasm, then let tho country tind the money and pay him out, and tne money so expended would be fully and soon refunded by the increased prosperity and freedom from polica and lunnoy taxes which would be cousequent on the suppression of the traffic.But the question would Le, could he substantiate bis claim, to the =ntisfaction nf any tmpariial arbitrators ?But, Sir, there is another way of looking at this question of coinpensation.Licenses to make sud sell goo nad to drinking.Drinking leads to drunk- euness, with all Its attendant evils, The Rt.Hon.W.E.Gladstone says \u201c that greater calamities are inflicted on mankind by in- teruperunce than by the three great bistori- Cl scourges of war, pestilence and fainins.\u201d Charles Buxton, an English brewer, said: \u201cThe struggle of the school, aud the library, and the Church, all united against the beer-house and the gin palace, is but ove development of the war boetwoen heaven and hell, Ît (ie the vice of intomuverance) 13 the mightiest of all the forces that clog the progress of .The intellectual, the moral, and the religious welfare of our ple, their material comforts, their domes.ic happluess, are all involved.\u201d If this be true, and who can deny it, then the common sale of intoxicating drinks is a common hulsance, aud as n nuisance, the People have the right to demaud its extinc- ion without any regard Lo compensation.At oue time, hogs could be kept in our cities near dwelling houses, und society coudoued the nuisance.But when society awoke Lo the sense of the vile swells aud evil effects of the hoggeries, the owners were compelled lo remove tbe nuisance, and J remember hearing of no instances of compeusation being paid for empty stys and

Rational View of Prohibition.To the Editor of THE STAR: SIR\u2014The pros and cons of prohibition bave ot late been so repeatedly and so variously laid before your readers, that caution is required in a further discussion of the matter, If we are to avoid the snare of utter- tering useless platitudes.I will preface my remarks by referring to the number of representative citizens who in Montreal bave recently in a public manner ideuntitied themselves with a measure which to the minds of the vast majority is utterly impracticable.A great Inany years ago a very able essay was written by a statesman, who to-day is foremost in British politics.The writer, in defending the subject under consideration, based sowe of his arguments upon what he claimed as the Paternal character of Civil Government, upon the strength of which premiss he built an exceedingly formidable structure as a mouument to his theory.1 will venture the remark that Prohibitionists believe in this theory, absolutely.It 1s well at this juncture to keep in mind the numberless ils that afflict society with several of which it is clearly certain that Government has nothing to do.The curing of drunkenness 1s embraced In this latter catalogue.With regard to the claim that the only pos- slble method of checking drunkenness is by entirely stopping the sale of liquors, rmit me to remark that it seems almost neredible that so sanguine aset of people live in our midst.If it has been found impossible to prevent the desperate adulteration of wines and\u2019 liquors so proverbiallv true of these days, what are we to think ot people contemplating a project of infinitely greater difficulty.If we are not vet able fo accomplish the lesser, what hopes are held out about our succeeding in the greater.With regard to the adulteration of alcoholic drinks, who is there that does not know that\u2018as a rule, tie purchaser buys according .to the label, and.not accmding to the supposed contents of the bottle, it being proverbial that the wines, etc., generally sold by the glass, are either adulterated almost beyond recognition, or are an gatirely counterteit article.Let me observe here, t the liquor trade enjoys a monopoly in its bold position in selling systematically counterfeit drinks, some of which are supposed to be imported as per label, but actually made here.If u trader in any otber line of business did this, he would be prosecuted.Why this apathy, when so much is said about curing intemperance.A ready, practical and intelligent plan, well worthy of trying, is this-emnloy Government officers whose duty it will be publicly, and at their discretion, to visit the hotels, etc, and to demand, from the shelves aud cellars of the establishment, samples ol their stock, for public analysis: and should the result of the analysis prove unsatisfactory, confiscate the entire stock, withdraw the proprietors license and impose a fine with imprisonmen!.The carrying out of this vigorous law, if success- fui, would open up a way for conference with the more radical reformers whose aim is entire Prohibition.The immediate need is relief, rathar than total cure.No legislation can cure drunkenness.I will only add that any mewsure which means in plain English that our rulers are to decide what kinds of drink we are to have upon our dinner tables (which is Prohibition) ia not likely to meet with the endorsement of Canadians, injustice Leing stamped upon its ace.A MONTREALER ABROAD.A Seaman's Life.1o the Editor of THE STAR: SIR,\u2014In the case now before the Police Magistrate, it seems a very frivolous complaint that men were keot on deck in their \u2018 watch below,\u201d b@R that it was hardship and injustice, especially whon added to bunger add weakuess, caused by short allowance of food, will be understood by the following: The ship's crew are divided equally into starboard and port watches.At 7 bells, that .is at 7.30 a.m.the starboard watch, we will say, is below in bed; it is called, the men turned out, et their breakfast and then come on deck.\u2018he port watch, which has been on deck since 4 o'clock a.m., then goes below; gets breakfast, and turns in to sleep until 11.3v a.m.when they get dinner and relieve the starboard watch until 4 p.m,, when they in turn relieve the rt watch until 8 p.m.These last from 4 til! 8 are the dog watches and serve to break the time so that the men are not oo deck at the same houra every day, the men being sixtenn hours one day and the next eight ours on deck or below alternately, and reliove the starboard watch who go below until 12 midnight, then come on deck until 4 a.m.when they are relieved.This is the routine day after day wblie the voyage lasts.The bardship lies in being fed nt most times ou food that no shore laborer would or could live on, then being \u201chazed\u201d by being kept up for spite in the atternoon watch at frivolous work when the men have a right to be below mending or washing clothes, sleeping etc.A sailor's life Is hard enough at nny {me either afloat or ashore, but to be nagged at, hazed aud forced into so called mutinous couduct by those placed over him, by law, and very frequently not nearly as ood seamen practically as he is, ts hard on is manhood, and if he growls or sulks he is abused in a foul-mouthed manner, struck.placed in irons aud starved until he is rought \"to his senses.There has buena good about the owber deal of legislation lately, but for the food of the seaman.The time as oome when vessels must be better pro- visfoned, as cannnd food and vegotables are plenty and cheap; the old time rations are played out and must be improved upon, and the seamen fed as well at least as an emigrant ; and, further, if kept on deck

dlscus- sion now in progress, respecting the muuch needed reforms which Mr, Norton 1s hoping to effect in the worship of Almighty God as ft i3 conducted in, what is supposed to be the Cathedral Church of this city and diocese, To those who have been usad to cathedral services in England, or even in the Ultra- Evangelical Churcu of Ireland, all these meetings, and counter-petitious, and insinuations as to \u201cthe thin end of the ritualistic wedge,\u201d would be very amusing if they had not in them an element ol! sndness, very disheartening to ull who love the Church of land, avd who really desire hor progress and peace.Apart, however, [rom considerations such as I refer to, the opposition that has been offered to the proposed Introduction of a surpliced choir, reveals a lnmentabis nck of breadth of view on the part of some connected with the Cathedral congregation who, whila they are never done boasting that theirs is \u2018the Cathedral Church of the Diocese,\u2019 are nevertheless quite content that the *\u2018Catbedral\u201d service should be about as effectively ren- dored as it ordinarily isin asixth-rate parish church.And this brings up the whole question\u2014a uestion that ought to be settied at once and or ever: Is Christ Church (by any arrange- mient that would Lo held valid in a court of law), a cathedral; or is it, like St, Slartin\u2019s, or St.Judu'x, or St.George's, merely a parish church © If the latter, if in reality it is only on parish church that goes by tho name ot the * Cathedral,\u201d perbaps the pewholders are within their right in resisting changes of which thoy do not approve, and the value of which they, probably, do pot understand.But let the tact ne made kuown; let the cuthedral flag be honestly and honorably hauled down, and placed away out of tbe | reach of those worthy and versatile members of the congregation who are In the habit of flyinæ it, or furling it, as It suits the end they have in view.On tbe other hand, it the Church is really a Cathedral first and above all things, and ouly a parish cluurch in a secondary and incidental sense, then let the members of the congregation rise out of the parochial rut and assist their enlightened and largehearted rector in his efforts to make the service in sonie degree like what a cathedral service ought to be.It must be confessed that to an educated gentleman, one who has seen the cathedral service as it is in England, snd who has \u201clived and moved\u201d in it for vears, as Mr.Norton has dnne, the service in the Montreal Cathedral can hardly fail to seem iuexpres- sibly dreary.Strangers visiting our city, tourists from the United States and other parts of the world, even people from Africa have been amazed at the coldness and the baldness, and the utterly inadequate nature of the services at what professed to be the Cathedral of the great Diocese of Montreal.During the rectorship ot Dean Baldwin the Cathedral was simply a large preaching house.It is true that the preaching was most eloquent and fervent, and that it.often attracted crowds, but how far it benetited the Church of England by attracting into ber fuld those wbo were without, or balding up in her taith and usages those who were within, are matters upon which great difference of opinion exists amongst church people.Certain it is, that those good men who caused the Cathedral to be built, intended that it should be something more than a mere preaching place; they designed 1t to be a sanctuary whore not only the (Gospel of Jesus Christ (as the Church of England understands it), might be proclaimed in all its Catholic fulness, but also a place where, in this new country.the matchless liturgy of the Chureh might be rendered with the lke simple splendor and reverent attention to details which characterize cathedral worship in the Mother land.This was the dream of the faithful and saintly Fulford, and of those who were associated with him in the erection of what was, to them at «ny rate, Christ Church Cathedral.As 1 remarked before.Lhe definite and final settlement of the parochial or cathedral aspect of the cHurch calls loudly for attention.Let it be either one thing or the other.If a cathedral, those who Jdislike a cathedral service can go elsewhere.IL is true that in the matter of services they will have difficulty in finding as low a deep elsewhere as they have heen accustomed to, for years past, at the Cathedral.But, if they are not too hard to please, there are still some two or three churches in the city in which their peace will not likely be disturbed, either by too frequent communion services, or by improvements and retine- ments in the mode of worship.-However, this is not by any means a probable settlement of the difficulty.Those who profess to know the whole state of the case assert boldly that the building is *\u2018a parish church, just like any other patish church in the dio- cess,\u201d and that \u201cits being, in any legal sense, & Catbedral, as Euglish Cathedrnis are, is all moonshine.\u201d If this point be well taken, man Queer things follow! If there is no leg \u2018athedral in the diocese, then what becomes of the office of Dean?and what of the numerous Archdeacons ?and what alas!) of the innumerable multitude of the Canons?These questions suggest an- swars so utterly, utterly heart-rending, that I realty canuot pursue the subject any further.Yours very truly.ANGLICAN.The Discussion Likely to Do Good.To the Editor of THE STAR: SIir.\u2014The quantity of ink that has been spilled on the question of the Cathedral ser- vioes 18 something amazing, and the amount of ignorance in Church matters displayed by people who ought to know better is somewhat surprising, leave alone all the nonsense written.I would not return to the subject again myself were it not that I see the very words and expressions ot my first letter to you, used,by certain correspondents and reporters of other papers hore who are but too glad to spread discord iu the ranks of the church, as 1f spoken by the Rev, Mr.Norton, giving the lwpression that he bad instigated the letter, iI not written 1t himself.Now, there is no need of my taking Mr.Norton's part, or fighting his battles, for he is fully able to take care ot himself; but I think it but proper he should be set right before the publie, and I write to say that Mr.Norton never spoke to me at all on the subject of church services, is Dot in any way responsible for what I! have written, and does not even know who I am.All I wrote came from myself alune, and was prompted solely by a desire to see all good things done right.Some people.1 know, have no idea of the \u2018\u2019eternal fitness of things,\u201d aud could not give a reason for kneeling at the Lord's prayer, standing up to sing, and sitting at the reading of the lessons.How could such people understand whv they should rise whan the clergy enter the church, or remain in their pews until they have left it, etc, as suggested in my letter in order to make the service more impressive ?And where is the differsace, I would like to know, between doing as much as they now do and doing the little more that they might do, and which is just as proper and as right.I have heard several of my friends lament that this * ritualistic war \" (as the Witness seems to delight in calling it) should be raging.1 soo nothing lamentable in it; 1 even think it is a g thing.A great many will get more knowledge of church matters now than they ever got before; and I must say it was sadly peeded.Who «ver heard, for instance, of the Church of England being governed bv a majority, as one correspondent sald it should be; or of a minister of the Church of England preaching according tu the wishes of his congregation,as another wrote that he should do! Such ideas are simply absurd, gir, and 1 say again I believe it iy not a bad thing that this ** war\" is givi some en- lIightenment in that direction.You will see also that truth is mightv and will prevail! It is time, too, that people should declare and ba what they are.If they belong to the Church of England, lot them act up to the rules and regulations of the Church; or, if they don\u2019t care to do that, join whatever disseotient sect they more properly balong tn.I thank you, Mr.Editor, for vour courtesy to me and my humble opinions, apd I beg also to commend the independent and unbiassed position you have taken in the matter.Yours respectfully, Always continuing to be A STICKLER.About the Library and Other Things.To the Kditor of THE STAR: S1R,\u2014I hope the movement you have so successfully inaugurated fora public library in Montreal will not now lag for want of Interest on the part ot those who will be specially benefited.The Carnival will very soon be on us, and probably will be the all engrossing topic for some thine.Then when that is over the library question will come où aguin, and serve as un Kind of stock ~ub- ject until at last somethi definite may tes dope.\u2018The simplest feasible pian woul ap- to be \u201c for vothiug more to be of- lured, but go À .\" Let the citizens ox gaulz and let: Committees Le appointed, and the city well canvassed for subscriptions.- The societies and clubs should all do something, and so should the employers; but it must not be lef! for wealthy men to furnish all of the funds and have all of the trouble too.Do you know that to une outside, this last seems to be what is expected, and is auxiously hoped for.But \u201cJuplter helps those wbo help themselves,\u201d and I sugrest that those who are to receive direct benefit fiom the library should at least undertake the work, and furnish a part of tho funds.As an old Montrealer I shall be glad to contribute my miw at the proper time.And would you allow me before I close to plead for the bundreds of men who will spend the next six months in the lumber shanties, out of reach of all tbe blessings and refinements of civilization, beyond the mail servico and therefore Le- youd the newspaper world.Their Sundays and evenings would be brightened consider- ubly if they could but oblain some of the old disused mugazines, or worn out books, which rank put as lumber in many u bouse, Auything that would furnish instruction or amusement if forwarded to mv address, or in my name to the Synod Office, University street, would be most thankfully received and sent to some shanty or household, tar away from the beaten track.Most of the shanties are visited once or twice in the sea- sou by & clergyman, but reading matter Is very scarce, as the meu cannot carry books with them over the long portages in the Fall, aud I sometimes fancy the parson is only balf welcome if he cannot leave behind Lim some papers or books, and some of my parishioners live 20 or 30 miles from the nearest main road and Post OtHice.80 you may be sure that any printed matter would be precious there.Very sincerely yours, W.PERCY CHAMBERS.\u2018The Parsonage, Aylwin, | October 22ud, 1884.| Carnival Suggestions, To the Editor of THE STAR: SI1K,\u20141 pote your very sensible remarks in last Saturday's STAR respecting our proposed Winter Carntval, and think that the Committee cannot do batter than act upon them.I think that the programme should consist of purely Canadian Winter attractions, as we have sufficient material to work upon in our Winter sports, etc., to totally eclipse all former Carnivals.An allegorical rucession such as takes place in New Or- eans or other American cities would be no new feature to our American visitors, and might not compare favorably with what they are accustomed to for many reasous.1 think, however, that Mr.Corriveau's suggestion is good one, to have an allegorical car prepared by each ol the Winter sporting clubs; these ears could take part in and form an attractive feature of the general driving procession, and should be manned by some and surrounded by the other members of its club on foot in full costume and singing their club songs and choruses en route, 1 might bere mention the advieability of baving plenty of good band music on the streets, the absence of which was frequently commented upon last year by our guests, particularly on the evening of thesuowshoers\u2019 procession.\u2018Then again every flag should displayed and every member of our snowshoe and toboggan clubs as well as ladies who possess then should wear their blanket sults that week in the: day time on the streets, and if our volunteers would also dob their uniforms, I am sure the affect would be pleasing and thus without expense add to the holiday appearance of our city.Last year 1 suggested a grand snow ball battle on the upper portion of Dominion Square by the different snowshoe clubs, ope side to detend a snow fort against a force superior in numbers; this idea was commended Uy the press, but was given too late to be acted upon.A sham fight by our volunteers on snowshoes on the river could be seen to advantage by thousands from the revetment wall.A lumber camp, as proposed on a former occasion by Mr.Reid, 1n some suitable location would be an aitraction, as would alsu be a habitant contingent to.the sleigh- wg procession, each habitant driving nis traineau or box sleigh, and dressed in the regulation tuquu, ete., so well known to all Lower Cabadlans.Arches might ba erected in prominent parts of the city by the different snowshoe clubs, they also mannivæ them on particular occasions, such as the afternoon of the procession ; of if they take part, as I propose, in tbe pr ion, they theu could have them occupied by their lady friends in blanket suits, who would thus have a splendid view of the processiou as well as form one of the prettiest attractions of the Carnival.Ice arches with turrets would\u2019 be another pretty sight, especially when Jighted up at night.Some of the Indians might be allowed to put up regular wigwams (subject to the ap- provai ol the Carnival committee) in Do- inion, Phillips and Place d\u2019Armes Squares, where, dressed in full Indian costumes, they could soll toboggans, snowshoes, bead- work, ete, for their own hepetit.(ours, respectlully, THOS.PHILLIPS, JR.Longue Pointe Asylum.10 the Editor of THE STAR: SIR,\u2014I have been at Longue Poiute Asylum now for three or four years on and off, and am, for long intervals at any rate as capable of judging of facts as must other men.I have been treated with unvarying kindness and great liberality, or, 1 may say, generosity.Judge of my surprise when my acquaintance, Dr.Tuke, came to see me, heard my laudatory reinarks, made favorable comments of his own to me, and then wrote in terms of such strong vituperation.The DAILY STAR which you are sending me is not thrown away.It passes through a stream of the poor boarders in my ward then goes to the rich boarders in the war above.and then loses itself in the vast ocean of the Government patients tothe east of us, I am, Sir, A.B.C.D.F.In 1803 the firs: whita settlers landed in Australia In 1876 died tho last survivor of the black inhabitants, hunted animals long sincw caged and quieted.The savagest of brute beasts, the tiger wolf and the \u2018l'as- maniau devil, are still living among the bilis: but the native man, unique among the varieties of his race, could not 101 al} His virtues, and he bad virtues, be suffered Lo ex- st.A Popular Fallacy.Many people think that Rheumatism cannot be cured.It is caused by a bad state of the blood which deposits poisonous matter In the joints and muscles, causing lameness, stiffness and swelling of the joints and excruciating pains.Kidney-Wort will certainly effect a cure.It acts on the Kidneys, Liver and Bowels, stimulating them to à healthy action, purifies and enriches the blood and eliminates the poison irom the System.Go to the pearest druggist, buy Kidney-Wort and be cured.An unpopular head of a department once came to Lamb and inquired \u201cPray, Mr.Lamb, what are you about!\u201d \"Forty next birthday,\u201d said mb.\u2014*I don\u2019t like your auswer,\u201d said his cbief \u2014\u201cNor I your question,\u201d was Lamb's reply.K-QUANTITY AND QUALITY.\u2014In the Diamond Dyes more coloring is given tban in any kuown dyes, and they give faster und more brillinnt colors.10c.at all druggista.Wells &: Richardson Co, Montreal, P.Q.Sample Card, 32 colors, and book of directions for Zc.stamp.A volatile young gentleman, whose conquests in the femaie world were numberless, at last married.\u201cNow my dear,\u201d said the wife, \u201cI hope you'll mend.\u201d \u201cMadam,\u201d said he, \u2018 you may depend upon it;

the leud Costumes for the approaching Winter were inspected.From those seen it would appear that the uniforms of t soasons are to be completely outdone, The designs of some of them area marvel of

STAR, in wbich It ts proposed to buy in 1,000 shares of watered stock issued by Sir Hugn Allan, when President of the Company, is the all absorbing topic of conversation on the street.It is announced by a large firm of stock brokers that in the begioniug of the week 3.500 shares of this stock will go into investment.This would àc- count for the large buying which touk place during the last ten days, every share which has been offered having been taken up at prices ranging from 55 to 58.This morning there are indications that the woney necessary to purchase these 3,500 shares, amounting to $175,000, is to be provided through a prominent broker, who is closely connected with a wealthy syndicate, recently a large holder of bank stock and which has becn attempting to advance prt in the face of a somewhat weak mgr- ot.This policy was rendered necessary to associate themselves with the holders of Richelieu, whojare also holding Merchants and Toronto, and thus coutrol the market and keep priess uo.The bears say that this move will not have the eftect of giving any more stability to the stock, as,outside of the irom interest and a well-known shipping house, there are but few English investors who deal in this line at all.The Company's profits for 1883 were $107,287, out of which a six per cent.dividend, absorbing £95,340 was paid, leaving a surplus ot $11,947.As so much bas been said of the lar amount of stock floating on the street, the following list of holders on January 19, 1884, is given from the companinrg\u2019 oficial list; Bank British America, $532.800; Bank Montreal, $200,000: Merchants\u2019 Bank, 846.000: Quebec Bauk, 860.500: Banque Hnehelaga,827,000 ; Jacques Cartier Bank, $22,500; People\u2019s Bank, $22,200; Federal Bank.$7.50: Royal Canadian
