it was not such that the directors would have authorized the advance of $300,000.Craig's transactions with eard were on his own authority.Before gividg lines of credit or opening accounts, the Board of alrectors shouid be consulted.ee otha y ened small accounts out authority, but always repor them afterwards to the Board.ve repo To Mr.Atwater\u2014Did not know how long rd's account bed been opened.He was aware that in July, 1883, Beard was indebted to the Bank to the extent approximately gf $40,000; but was uot aware of auy further indebtedness.The directors bad the fullest confidence in Cralg, but they did not allow him to make any transactions he pleased.He issued a few letters of credit, but generally reported at the next meeting of the directors.Cralg never reported these con- tracy or advances to Lhe Board; bis reports were therefore taulty.Mr.Atwater then addressed the Court in behalf of the plaintiffis.He heid that tne fact that the directors had no knowledge of these letters bad nothing to do with them.Craig said that the letters were copled into the Directors\u2019 book, and they had such implicit contidence in him that they took his plain statement.Mr.Geoffrion, ting forth some prosecution.Mr.J.N.Greensbields spoke at length in defence of the Bank.It was incumbent on the prosecution, he held, to show that the TBOR Or persons who executed such a cont has been duly authorized to do so.If the president of a bank can, by writing a small sheet of paper, pledge the security of all the assets of the Bunk, there is no necessity of having a buard of direciors.Lhe case was then placed before the Court, the counsel for ihe defence reserving the right to examine Messrs.Buotin and Bulmer, directors of the Bank, if required.THE LACHINE BRIDUE.Mr, Sandford Fleming, C.E, and Mr, Hugh Ryan Visit the Scene, Mr.Sandford Fleming, C.E., Chief Inspector of Government Rallways, accompanied by Mr.Hugh Ryan, tho well known contractor, has visited Lachine and examined th site of the proposed bridge, which it ls ex pasted will cross the river about half a mile low the village.It is understood thatthe latter gentleman is securing general information prior to tendering tor iis construc- oy also proceeded to Caughnawaga and inspected the quarries, which will, it is expected, prove an inexhaustible source of supply for the structure.Yesterday engineers were at work In the village taking measurements.Lachine will be reached by the road which, It wili be remembaged, was oonstructad from Mile End through Cote St.Luc to a point beyond Blue Bonnets several years ago.Connection with the southern system will probably be attained by buiid- ing a line either to St.Johns or Chambly.The cost of the proposed structure wil} prof ably not cxceed $1,500,000.It is not known hether the work will be commenced this \u2018All until the return of Mr.George Stephen from England.C., followed in French, set- urther arguments for the Preparing to Go.The Government police, who will be disbanded for the Winter on Lhe lstof the month, are utting things in order to make thelr fare- Rell bow.To-day Chief Murphy and, his staff wore engaged in packing up the rifles, pisto'sandammunition,cte.and stowingthem away in the upper part of tho building, this being Decessary as a precaution against floods.The station is in a good state of repair and cleanliness.and.on the whole, the season has beeu a satisfactory and quiet one a3 regards the field of operations.The re- rt of the department may not be expected lor some weeks yet;

of cavaliers wbo Lad fougbt for Kiu Charles, of gallaut gentlemeu who had followed their country\u2019s flag under tho burning sun of India, over tke sterrus of Spain, aud in the wilderness of America.And ofali tbese she was the last, aud ali that ancestral lory was bound up in her, a Joan and fragile girl.Deeply she regretted at that moment that she was not a nan, so that ahe might confer new lustre upon so exaited a Deage.As she wandered through the rooms and alleries all her childhood came back before er.She recalled her nother, her fond love, and her early death.That mother's picture hunæ in the great ball, and she gasod at it long and pensively, recalling that noble face, which io her remembrance was always softened by tba sweet expression of tendnrest love.But il was here that some- \u2018ping mot her eyes which in a moment chased away every regretful thought and softer feeling, aod brought back in fresh vebrmence the strong glow of her grief and indignation.Turniog away from her tnoth- er\u2019s portrait by a natural impulse to look for that of her father, she was at first unable to find it.At length at the end of the Une of Dalton portraits, she noticed what at tiret she bad puppased to be part of the wall out of repair.Another g'ance, however, showed that it was the back of a picture.In s moment she understood it.It was her father's portrait, and the face bad been turned to the wall, .Stung by a sense of Intolerable insult, her face flushed crimson, and she remained for @ toy moments rooted to the spot glaring at the picture.Who bad dared to do this -to heap incult unon that innocent and suffering head, to wrong so foully the memory of the dead?Her first impulse was to tear ii down with her own hands, and replace it in ita proper position; her next to soek out Wiggins atonoe and denounce him to his face for all his perfidy, of which this was the fitting climax.But à more sober thought followsd\u2014thr thought of har own weakness.What could her words avail against a man like that?Better far would it be for her to wait until she could expel the usurper, and take her own plaos as ack mis- fress in Dalton Hall ode continuedd' s.r aR ee LC NE J ©» *.$ ., °° .\u201c* .«® °, * *, «® ., ® *, ® *, «?Ln «® *.oe\u201d s, «® *e ve he Te?>.» .SA ue 3 pe?.A Fa ea : AS 0e a° Ca 4 LYDIA E.PINKHAM\u2019S * VEGETABLE COMPOUND * *2*2\" ISAPOSITIVECURE * 2*.* For all! of those Pujuful Complaints and ® ® \\Weakpennes no Courmon to eur best * * 2 * , *FEMALE POPULATION.* à * 2 ® IT WILL CURE ENTIRELY THE WORST FORY OP FEMALE COMTIAINTS.ALL OVARIAN TRO!
