the annexation plot to be \u201c\u2018grosd, wilful and.deliberate lying.\u201d Its Washington correspondent asserts that the members of the Senate Committee de- claro the chargo to be false.They all deny that Mr.Farrar, the Mail Editor, ever appeared before the Committee.Edltorially the paper denounces the charge as à piece of professional jealousy, and published the foliowing telegram [rom Senator Dolph 1 \u201cKE.0, Farrar, Toronto: \u201c1 hderstandiug (hut what purports to be an in- Terview with me bus been publi: shed to the effect that you had made certain statements before the

lar.All the other alle gations are as false in substance.It is not true that Mr.Farrar discussed the question of annexation with the gentleman bpamed.No reterence is made by the paper directly to the evidence of Mr.Wiman, nor ishis name mentioned in the matter.THE GLOBE\u201d TAKES A HAND.The Globe takes a hand in the fight, and gives tho following from its Washington correspondent: \u201cMr.Hitt, chairman of the Foreign Aifairs Committee, when asked by the Globe correspondent what were the prospects of the passage of his bull, replied that it a good time just now to bring it up in the Committee, because other matters of importance were attractin attentioh, Mr.Hitt rurther made the following casual statement to the Globe: \u201cMr.Farrar, when here, told me he thought we were offering too much: that the House of Representatives had done enough, and that if it waited long enough, the Canadians would offer us anpexation,\u2019 THE CHARGES REITERATED.The Linpire to-day republishes its charges, and gives interviews with a number of prominent persons.Mayor Clarke's remarks are a good sample of these.He said: \u201c1 was very sorry to see à paper that had occupied such a position charged with aiding in promoting the annexation of this country to the United States.I was disposed to look upon the whole matter simply as the work of newspaper paragrapliers until explicit statements were reported in the Empire as having been made by Senator Dolph and Mr.Wiman.If these gentiemen are reported correctly, the: position of Lhe Muil seems to be a very unenviable one.\u201d WHAT SENATOR HALE SAYS.An interview is aiso published which Sen- tor Hale had with a Detroit Free Presa reporter, in which the following sentence occurs: \u201cMr.Farrar, of the Toronto Mail, had been in Washington for some time, and he (Senator Hale) had spoken with him on the subjeét of trade relations.Mr.Far- rer was a pronounced annexationist, and he (Hale) had for years believed that annexation was only ag a question of of time.\u201d THE ATLANTIC MAIL CONTRACT.Rumor Regarding the Allans \u2014 The Live Stock Trade.TORONTO, January ry 23.\u2014 The following - special appears in this morning's Globe, dated London, January 22: On enquiry here I can obtain no confirmation of the statement cabled that the Allan's had secured the mail contract on the promise of a speed of.seventeen knots an hour.At the Allans* London office nothing was said to be known of the matter, but they would not authorize a contradiction.The general feeling here for some time past \u2018has n that some such arrangement would be the outcome of the present position of affairs, and would satisfy most parties.connected with -the Canadian trade.It js much to be hoped that the Dominion Government is not interested, as was -re- cently reported, in promoting a change in the live stock trade relations by permitting the shipment through the Unitea States \u20ac of live stock for England via Obleago an Montreal.Itis very unlikely M Sapin will agree to any lessening of the restrictions now enforced, but it ia still more important to remember that if United States cattle are admitted with Canadian cattle any outbreak of disease among the former is a most certain to prove fatal to the whole trade.SUFFERING AND DESTITUTION.A Terrible Tale Brought From South Dakota By a Reporter.CHICAGO, January v 23\u2014A reporter, just returned from the north, brings a tale of terrible suffering and destitution in nineteen counties of South ota, gathered from eye-witnesses.The

of a labor union at Cork yesterday as a usurpation on his part of the leadership of Mr.Parnell, and viewing his \u2018action in vhis light are alsposed d to resent it.Mr.Davitt bas stoutly.resented this imputation upon his motives and declared that he opposed any.phase of the proceedings calculated to produce such an impression.He is now ready, as he has always been, to ablde by the decision of Mr.Parnell in any matter affecting Ireland's in- teresats, but does fot admit that anything that was sald or done by himself or the others present at yesterday's meeting antagonized Mr.Parneil or his

representatives at Ottawa the advisability of giving Mr.Clemow all the support they can in the legislation he has proposed for abating this great and crying nuisance.THE transformation of the Lineral party of this province into the National party recalls an incident in the French Revolu- flon.A man who showed wild beasts at - Paris had à tiger from Bengal called the tiger.But when royalty and everything royal was abolished, he was afraid of the charge of \u201cincivism,\u201d and, instead of \u201cRoyal tiger,\u201d put on his signboard \u201cNational tiger.\u201d till the tiger did not

the United States?The same doubts seem to have suggested itself to the people themselves, who decline to be \u201crepatriated\u201d even at the expense of - the Quebe: Government.According to the American press Mr.Mercler has found a way out of the difficulty and has made up his mind that if the French Canadians in the United States will not come to Quebec, he will take Quebec to the United States.This, however, is probably a libel on the Honorable Premier, as he never talks annexation on this side of the line.UNLIKE the contest just decided in New Brunswick, the general election now pand- ing in Prince Edward Island is a square party fight.The Government which has gone to the people for endorsation is Conservative, and is led by an able man, Mr.Neil McLeod.Mr.John Yeo, who leads the Liberal Opposition, stands equally high in the estimation of his party.As usual, both sides claim a victory in advance, while admitting that the struggle will be both obstinate and close.At the last Dominion elections the Island returned a full dolega- tion of six Liberals to the House of Commons.The questions at issue between the parties turn upon the financial record of the government which has had nine years of power to explain and defend before the people.The elections take place this month.WE hope the House of Commons will not take long to throw out Mr.Taylor's \u201c Anti- Alien\u201d bill.Whether the measure is conceived in à spirit of retaliation against the United States or in a spirit of emulation it is unworthy of Canada.The Act of Congress forbidding the immigration of foreigners to the United States under engage nent to work there ts about the meanest piece of legislation on our neighbors\u2019 statute books and almost every week its operation places the United Btates Government in a most humiliating position.Had England legislated in ~- this spirit against foreign workmen, Engiish bandicraft would never have reached its high repute.The clase of people we want to exclude from Canada are not those under contract to work, but those who come under à tacit understanding with themselves not to work 1f they can help it.This policy of isolation can be carried too far.Ir M.Flourens said, as reported in the oables, that the existing treaty gave France govereignty over the strip of Newfoundiand _ooast called the-Franch shore, hisstatement was in direct conflict with fact.Boverelgnty over the whole Island of Newfoundland, inoluding the Frenoh shore, is reserved to Great Britain in distinct terms.All the right the French possess under the treaty is to land and dry their fish ana perform other operations in connection with their flsheries.Through the culpable apathy of the British the French have been permitted to assume rights that are not recognized by the treaty, and these they now insist on maintalning to the great disadvantage and retardation of the colony.This is a question which must be eventually settled in accordance with the demands of the Newfoundlanders.It is sheer absurdity to suppose that a great extent of valuable territory, capable of sustaining a large population, rich in timber and minerals and with wide reaches of excellent agricultural land, shall be locked-up in perpetual savagery and withheld from settlement and development in order that a few French fishermen may dry codfish and repair their nets.The treaty of Utrecht, the settiement under which the French claims are held, was a wretched piece of bungling on the part of British diplomatists apd will not be held binding when Newfoundlanders are in a position to \u2018asport their territorial rights.THE DUAL LANGUAGE SYSTEM IN THE NORTH-WEST- -Mr.Dalton McCarthy's proposed ameond- \u201cwent to the North-West Territories Act\u2019 will be a good test of the patriotism and statesmanship of the English speaking members of the House ot Commons.Could the members vote as do their constituents, by ballot, Mr.McCarthy's amendment would be carried by a sweeping majority.Not an English speaking member really wishes to see the dual language difficulty ereated in the North; West.The most plausible sxouse for a vote against Mr.McCarthy's amendment would be that French being practically a dead language in the North- .Wèst already it i8 unnecessary to kill §t by legislation.But, although French ts ; 14tle more than an official language in the : Lerritories, séniros elem being an official language it isa useless expense at present und an rent of danger for the future.Nobody oan pretend shat the interests of a

French.Canadians of a provisos of Quebec have an undoubted F \"be cerried on without any ap r | newed last evening.The Polish Faction, led \u2018 pare will probably nobody disputes, to ued their J

would prefer their own language to survive and each has rights in the matter which the other 18 bound to respect.In the North-West the position is altogether different; the French population is not large enoush to-Justify the use of French as an official language, and the only possible reason for maintaining it is to gratitfy the aspirations of those: who dream of the Domin- jon ultimately becoming Gallicized.The debate on the second reading promises to be an interesting one and we trust it will als to race or religious prejudices.That it will be decided on its merits would be too much to hope, there is not enough patriotism or statesmanship in the House.Each party knows that the balance \u2018df power rests In the pivotal Province of Quebec.There are lots of members in the House who could afford to vote regardless of the Quebec vote, but their party cannot afford it.MONTREAL'S AL'S NEEDS.THE DEPUTATION AND THE PREMIER- The Need of Harbor Improvements Pointed out to the Government at Ouawa\u2014 Kir John Macdonald\u2019s Reply.Orrawa, Jan.22\u2014The reception of the Montreal deputation on harbor improvements took place last evening in the Premier's private room.The members wete received by Sir John.Other members of the cabinet present were Sir Hector Lange- vin, Sir Adolphe Caron, Hon.J.A.Chapleau, Hon.Mackenzie Bowell, Hon.John Cos- tigan and Hon.C.C.Colby.The members of the deputation present were His Worship | Mayor Grenier, Ald.Rolland, Mr.Prefon- taine, M.P, / Aid.Thompson, Wilson and Cunningham, representing the Cit Cour cil; Hon.Senator Drummond and Messrs.A.Budden and D.A.Watt, repre- sonting the Board of Trade; Messrs.Hugh McLennan, A.G.Me Bean aud C.H.Gould, representing the Corn Exchange; Messrs.i Montagu Allan(in place of Mr, Andrew Allan, who was detained at home b indisposition), John Torrance and Kobert Keford, and Mesars.Andrew Robertson, H.Bulmer, V.Hudon and J.O.Vitle- neuve, representing the Harbor Commissioners.City surveyor bf.George and Harbor Engineer John Kennedy were also present.he deputation was accompanied y Messrs, J.J.Curran, Jphonée Desjardins, M.P.; A T.Lavine, ) M.8 H.erger on Hash McMillan, M.P.: R.$ White, M.Fo, Hon.Senator Thibaudeau and Hon.Speaker Ouimet.THE WANTS OF MONTREAL EXPLAINED.Major Grenier explainea the project for harbor improvements and flood protection, The city had voted a million dollars, and they feit justified in asking the Government for the balance, inasmuch as the harbor was the entrepot of ihe trade of the whole Dominion, and whatever benefited it benefited the whole country.Mr.Hugh Mcliennan, representing the Corn Exchange, stated that the trade of the port had falien behind owing to a lack of proper facilities.They believed the plan chosen out of several would be satisfactory.The trade of the past year encouraged them to proceed, for.they knew if they did not advance they must retrograde.Hon.Geo.A.Drummond, on behalf! of the Board of Trade, said the Government 80 far had not done anything for the port of Montreal, notwithstanding its great Importance to the public.he port of Montreal was in reality the port of Ontario and the Western provinces of the Dominion and the terminus of two great railways, both of which had received liberai assistance from the Government.But there was a link wanting after the goods had arrived at that port, aud with a view of completing this, carefully prepared plans were made and were now to be placed in the hands of the Government for their consideration and approval.It would not be just if it were a purely local work for them to ask for public aid.The port of Montreal had shown no material increase in its dimensions for mauy years.There have been additional piers built here and there and 1 CONSIDERABLE GROWTH in the eastern part, or the Hochelaga district, but when compared with the facilities at Antwerp, Hamburg, London or Liverpool they wero at a standstill.They wanted to make Montreal the port of the Dominion in fact as in name Mr.Henry Bulmer having s oken for the Harbor Commissioners, and Robert Re- ford for the shipping interests, Mr.Curran, M.P., summed up the arguments and said Montreal had never received a cent as a port from the Government.He earnestly commended the question to the attention of the Government as one of the most important which was or haa been before them for many years.The prosperity of the Domin- lon depended upon the progperity of Montreal.Sir John Macdonald, in reply, said: We are very glad to have met you and to have had an opportunity of this conference with you.We have not yet seen the plans, but they can be left with the Government.It is à little unfortunate, as you say, that you have come at a-season when we are so busy, but that cannot be helped.As Iunderstand it you are anxious for the approval of the plans as being sufficient for the purpose for which they are prepared.There is a further proposition that the Government should ask Parliament to ald in carrying out these plans, I will not enter into a discussion whether Montreal has received any money out of the treasury or not.The city seems to think it is at & disadvantage owin competition of the Lachine canal but they CAN HAVE ALL THE BURPLUS after the expenses of collecting the tolis are defrayed, if that will satisfy.(Laughtor) We are ail aware that it is the great port 0 Canada and that à very large portion of the summer trade tinds its way to Montreal, It is, therefore, a great harbor for the whole of the Domiñlon, for western Canada as well as for Montreal.The Government, however, could not grant the money.It is necessary to ask Parliament to do so and we do not know what Parliament might say to us on the matter.We have got the name of being an extravagant Government (laughter)and, having got.the name of extravagance, we are relieved from the thought of Coin ox- tra scouomical.Then there are.our astern masters, the PR ublic, and the finger of the leader of the pposition pointing at us although in this case, with a desire to help Montreal, his hostility might be somewhat lessened.There is also one thing that you all represent, the north bank of the St.Lawrence, and ont know how these improvements might affect those on the south bank of, the river, as it has been Bald that protecting Montreal from these floods was merely transferring them from Montreal to the other side.I, however, understand from Mr.Buimer that the Flood Commie sion goes fully into thät eubfect, and reports that the adoption of these plans will not injure or affect those on the opposite side of the river.This is fortunate.may say that we will give our early and earnest attention to this important subject.Ald.Profontaine having explained thatthe scheme would not affect the south shore of tha St.Lawrence, the de eputation then took leave of the ministers an se, asins, Horrible Outrages ina à Cemetery.PLYMOUTH, Pa., January 23, The tr rouble at the

American Navy, the Parnell Commission and Home Rule.LONDON, January 22.\u2014Mr.Gladstone, speaking at Chester to-day, declined to oriti- cize the course of Lord Salisbury in the dispute with Portugal until he is more fully informed as to the detalis of the case.He considered it a duty to avoid cavilling at the foreign policy of the Government.Turkey appeared again as inviting England to intervene to protect the suffering pepulace of Crete and Armenia, but he warned the Sultan that England's reply would involve a reference to that mockery of justice, the trial of Moussa Bey, and the reply would be that he would not obtain British sympathy in times of trial and difficulty unless he governed with humanity and justice.Referring to the United States and the pians for an enlarged pavy, Mr.Gladstone said that country is still enjoying the blessings and comforts of a restricted trade and would, thereiore, pay 40 or 50 per cent, more to build navy than it would if cou- tented to \u2018compete on equal terms with other nations, But its resources are so great that it cap afford to pay forthe lusury of protection, The worst of it was that while America would cite England's example tor enlarging her navy, England will rive à similar excuse for further naval increase, The policy of governments thus tended more and more to jeopardize THE PEACE OF THE WORLD.\u2018The country would be likely soon to hear much aboat the Parnell commission.Without anticipating the judgment he would say the subject must be probed with the deepest attention of the country and of Parliament.His opinion was that the cumbrous proceedings constituted a chaos of oppression practised upon an individual by a legislative chamber and executive government without a parallel since the evil times of the reign of Charles the Second, Ho commended Scotland's unvarying support of Liberalism.If Scotland demahded home rule, meither Tories nor dissident Liberals would bow the war trumpets against It, in the name either of the union or the integrity of the empire.Scotland had a good ciaim to home rule, because the Tory majority assisted a handful of Scotch bers to outvote the Beoteh majority.Tné conflict for home rule is a territic struggle of powerful influence on one side against conviction on the other side.It is the principle of Liberalism to trust the e qualified by prudence.It isthe roche of Toryism to distrust the people qualified by fear.He yas confident of the ultimate judgment of the country.It ready to meet dissolution, but without impatience for it, it was because hae feit strongly the justice of the cause and knew it must triumph.QUEBEC NOTES.\u201cL\u2019Electenr\u2019\u2019 on the New Brunswick Elec- tions\u2014The \u201c Chronicle\u2019 Critical

And as she lay listening to the soft, regular breathing of the pretty little croat- ure who nestled serenely amoung her pillows in the next room, a feeling almost akin to hatred rose up in her breast! | \u201cHave I grown so wicked\u2014so base?\u2019 she asked herself, recoiling from the idea with a shudder.\u201cDo I hate that soft, lovely woman, because, in all ignorance of my real identity, she confides her plans and prajects to me, unconsciously becoming my riwal in the lists wherein woman can least endure competition?She ls In no way to blame; it is only Ithat am in fault\u2014but1t is a fault that can never be corrected in this world.Oh, merciful Father! keep me from becoming a-monster of malice and wickedness, in spite of myself!

Notwithstanding all her good resolutions Sylvia Burton's heart ached the next morning, as she saw how very pretty Mrs.Franklin Seymour looked, in her tiny hat of white Straw, bound with blue velvet ribbon, and shadowed with the feathery dicop of à blue welvet willow lume, while her dress-of white piqué was little rched foot, in a dainty Balmoral t, suitable for morning strolls ower dewy paths and damp grass.i \u201cAm 1 all right, dear?\u201d «demanded the blonde Iairy, as she eyed berroay seif in the.And Sylvia truthfully answered \u2018I never saw you looking more lovely.\u201d Mrs.Franklin Seymour gaveSylvia a hug and à kiss, in token of hex extreme gratification.; \u2019 \u201cThat's yourself,all over, Jane Chauncey,\u201d she cried, gayly.\u201cI always declared thére wasn't a spice of jealousy in your whole nature!\u201d 7 +.It Mrs.Seymour had bat known the flerce {bitter flame of jealousy which was corroding bylvia\u2019s heart at that very instant!

QUEBEC.January 23.\u2014At the afternoon session of the House yesterday, Lhe following bills were presented: An Act respecting the Department of Agricultural and Public Works, by Mr.Robi- doux., An Act respecting expropriations, by Mr- Robidoux An Act to amend the Code of Civil Procedure, respecting abandonment of property, by Mr.Robidoux, An Act to amend article 1571 of the Civil Code, respecting the signification of transfer of debts and rights of action, by~ Mr.Robidoux, 7 An Act to amend the Code of Civil Procedure, respecting summary matters, by Mr.obidoux.An Act to amend the Quebec Election law, by Hon.Mr.Pelletier.An Act to extend the territorial jurisdiction of the Superior and Circuit Courts of the district of Montreal, by Mr.eron.Mr.Shebyn said that at present it was impossible to reply to the following questions by Mr.Flynn: * Aside from the $2,268,874.70, mentioned in the return No.13 to the order of the House of the Sth February, 1889, has the Government made any other payments up to the last named date out of the loan of $8,500,000 (50 Vict., .80, what is the amount of such payments?Did eny balance of .this loan remain unexpended at the above mentioned date?If so, what was this balance, and has it been expended?A question of order was raised on the fol lowing question by: : Mr.Faucher de Saint-Maurice.\u2014The official statistics of the Department of Agriculture show that the brewers of Great Britain annually import from forelgn countries 40,000,000 bushels Of barley In addition to what they buy in £ng- land; of this quantity 1600 bushels, that is to say, a quantity equal to about two car loads, comes from the Jrovinos of Quebec.In view of these facts 18 1t the intention Of the Government Lo encourage the cultivation in the Province of Quebec?Another question of Mr.Flynn brought out the fact that the total proceeds realized from the sale of timber limits on the 9th of January was $56,000 and from his last.question it appeared that by the sale of fishing rights $10,874 was realized.REPATRIATION.The next thing was the motion for correspondence in regard to the repatriation of the French Canadians in the United States of two rowed barley and much time was was in long worded speeches even ter the mo tion was adopted.Mr, McShane thought was nonsense to Spend money in trying to bring the French Canadians back when they were doing so well in the States.Why in the little town of Plattsburg, the Irish and French Canadians were runnin, everything.In the States these peo je could getiive and six-dollars a day agdinst a dollar and a half here.* if the hon.member meant too any good for his country,\u201d said » Mc- Shane, * I'll show him the way.Let him as: the Government of the Domiaton to spend some money in developing the country instead of spending it on docks in Quebec that are never used.Then the people would not have to leave to better themselves, but after bettering themselves, like two young men from Laprairie, who are now prominent members of the Chicago Stock Exchange, a position which they never would have attained in this country, it would be foolish to bring them back.fact of seeing six hanging around each door of this House at any rate is far from encouraging.I koow the honorable member's feeling for the country is g at heart, but 86 is mine, and I think that the $700 spent last year in this matter might just as well have been given to the poor\u201d : MOTIONS PASSED, The following motions were then passed : By Mr.Pelletier\u2014For a Ust of all the mining iota in ce.roving By M.Nantel\u2014For documents respecting the dismemberment of the county of Terrebonne.By Mr.Flynn\u2014For correspondence relat to the resignation, Appointment and dis; of land agents or sub-land

Statutes and the Municipal Code to municipal councils, since the month January last.Mr.McShane begged to make a statement.It seemed generally understood that he opposed Col.Rhodes\u2019 bill for the widening of streets.\u2018This was not so.-His- amendment was to the effect that the streets arranged for at present were to remain, but new streets were to be 66 feet.THE GAME BILL.Mr.Gladu\u2019s bill about the Game Laws was received with a universal \u201cquacking\u201d ali over the house.\u2018Mr.Boyer moved for a six months\u2019 hoist, but this was lost by a mixed vote of 28 to 18, and the second reading ordered for Thursday.: When the \"B.A.\u201d bill came up Mr.Hall arose to explain it, but refrained at the suggestion of Mr.d'aillon, who thought that it might be considered carried on division and discussed in committee, the reference to be made on Thursday.The District Magistrates bill was then read for the third time, and after the House went into committee on the bill to amend the law of public instruction.It also went in committee on the bill for colonization bridges.They ,were both carried with slight amendments.The House adjourned at 6.30.CHAIRS FOR THE MEMBERS.For a long time the members of the House have had to sditlsfy themselves with common wooden armchairs, while the ministers have had something gorgeous, with soft red cushlons to sit upon.This, however, will be shortly changed, and the first instalment of new chairs ved yesterday.They are very nice, with black leather.séats and backs, and cost twelve dollars aplece.Sav- eral of the members, especially

ministerial caucus, held yesterday, when it was decided to follow the course taken in regard to the district magistrates act, the Premier exho his \u2018followers to take more care in keeping the business of the caucus secret.I'he STAR, he said, had managed to publish everything that was done, and this should be guarded against in the future.- MR.DESAULNIERS DISMISSED.ki \u2026 Mr.P.L.Desauln:

Auxillary\u2014Addresses by Bishop Bond and Others.The Book that tells the old, old story and Îte otroulation among the nations of the earth was the theme of lsst night's meeting in the 8t, James Msthodist Church.lt was thesixty-ninth annual gathering of the Montreal Auxiliary Bible Society, the oldest of the religious associations whose unniver- Baries are belng celebrated this week: and the one most generally known throughout this section of Canada.By a wise custom thie meeting has Jong held a central place n anniversary week, symbolizing, as it were, the place which the Bible hoids in the work of evangelization, which all these annual gatherings are caloulated Lo bring prominently before the people.The at- ndancg last night Fas large.Sir William Dawson presided, and around him were seated some of the champions of Christian work In Moiitreal, among them being His Lordship Bisbop Bond, Revs.Dr, Wells, Dr.Shaw, Dr.MacVicar, Dr.McKay, Archdeacon Evans, James Henderson, A.B.Cruchet, 8 P.se, L.Lafleur, É.Dewey, Mr.D.W.Ross, and Mr.Alex.Robertson.The meeting opened with the hymn, \u201cThy Word is a lamp unto my feet.\u201d Rev.Jas.Hendersôn theu-read a portion of the 115th Pealm, after which he offered up prayer.Before calling upon the speakers named on the programme, Sir Willlam Dawson said he was glad to again meet them on tho TRULY CATHOLIC PLATFORM of the old Bible Society.This was the time of innovations and new departures, but not for the work of their Society, for they stood by the Word of God and it was unchanged.It was ahead of our age as it had been of every age in the past, and as immovable as ever.It was not partial like our own little books made to mend the world, but was universal and, like the sun, lighted everything.The work of their society was to circulate this book and to let eople read and learn for themselves.The ible was now tranelated invo two hundred and ninety languages and last year more than four millions of copies had been cireu- lated by the British and Auxiliary Societies, Even at that rate it would take two hundred years to carry the Word of Life tu every household in the worid.The parent society needed more funds and he trusted that the free grant of £100 suggested would be sent by the Auxiliary to the Home Board.In the absence of Dr.Cornish, prevented through illness from attending, the chairman then called upon Dr.Shaw to re THE ANNUAL REPORT.It stated that the return from the branches was $7239, the sum of $2410 being purchase account; the free contributions were $4995; the receipts of sales at.the Bible House amounted to $3034, an increase of $120.The total number of copies issued were: Bibles, 1854; Testaments, 7275; portions, 4705; total copies, 20,583.The gratuitous distribution had been: Bibles, 1652; Testaments, 2179; portions, 1583; total copies, e 5414 receipts, including last year's balance, were $31,320; \u2018and the disbursements were 30,- 002, of which $7714 were paid for scriptures, 1385 free grants, $120 to Quebec auxiliary, $2255 for colportage, $1070 paid Bible women, se ,000 on account of new Bible house and $1938 for alterations in the building.The report also referred to the faet that Sir William Dawson had been elected a vice- president of the parent society.Dr.Shaw moved the adoption of the report and the election of the tollowing officers: President, Sir William Dawson, LL.D., F, R.8, C.M.G.; oe-prosidents, Right Rev.W.B.Bond, L.D, 1shop of Montreal; Rev.George Douglass, LL.D.cl, of the Wesleyan College, Montreal: Rev.D.H.MacVicar, D.D., LL.D., principal of the Presbyterian College, Montreal; treasurer, Mr, Samuel Finley; secratary, Rev.George Cornish, M.A.LL.D, corresponding secretary; and Professor Alexander hnson, M.A, LL.D.recording secretary.Also the committee composed of the Protestant clergy of the city and a large number of representative] ishop Bond, in seconding the resolution, said that the Binle was the basis of human liberty, and the solution of those great social problems, in which there was apparently so mu that was antagonistic, would all be found in the great Book.He pointed out the advancement Canada had made during the past fifty years and the silent influence the Bible had exercised upon our national life.\u201cIs not this a free country?some may express a doubt.\u201d Well then, will say, is there not in our country a spirit that will not be beaten down, and will insist upon civil and religious liberty, = COST WHAT IT MAY?Iam not thinking of Quebec alone but of Ontario as well, and I think e act of many of our so-called statesmen are very unstatesmanlike indeed.ow- ever, am not in accord with those who indiscriminately assail Mr.Mercier.When we went before him in re- tesy and courage were admirable.Ilay stress upon the words, his courage, for I believe that without it we should .not have had our asylum.\u201d In concluding, the Bishon said they cared not for the spithet, fanai.c, they might win in vindicating the liberty of.the Bible.It had been borne by greater men than they.Their Book possessed the power to break the fetters of sin, and if his hearers.| ference to our Asylum for lisane, his cour- .\u201cbetioved in it let them show it by something tangible.A resolution was passed embodying the ratitude of the Society for the sympathy f had met with, dnd giving £100steriing to the parent v.8.P.Rose, of Dominion Square Church, in moving the resolution, said the aim of the Society was to place the Bible in the hands of every man, Woman and child.Until the end was attained the work must be pushed with vigor.Although the Bible -was read by 200,000,000 ot people, the goal iety.Was by no means reached.o-thirds of the human race were yet in total darkness, He claimed the Bible to be the forerunner of all true rogress, and made an urgent appeal for the support of the Home Society, He referred to the broad spirit of Catholicity that characterized the Bible Soci closed by sayin that millions were in darkness yet.Should they withhold from them the light of the blessed Gospel ?v.Dr.Wells seconded the resolution in a very felicitous manner.The speaker touchingly alluded to the absence of the latejSenator Ferrier and a number of others \u2018Who in past years had done SUCH NOBLE WORK in this most noble calling but who were now with the great majority.The Bible, he said, was the great centre from which ali influences radiated.What was this Bible Society?What work had It done in these eighty-six years of its existence?He then referred to.the work of the foreign missions, particularly those of the Southern Hebrides.When John B.Geddy, of Nova Seotla, went one of these isiands he found not a single Christian, when-he left it was his roud boast that he ieft not a single then.He spoke of the diffioul-.\u2026 01.fhe\u2026mis-.sora of the cannibal islands.He cited one instance when it took fifteen years to reduce the native jargon to.a written language.If we experianced some of those difficulties we should know better how to appreciate the beloved Gospel.In speaking of Africa he took ocession to get in a blow at Mr.Mercier by saving that ha knew of a certain king in that dark land who was a better prohibitionist than the Quebec Government.He closed by urging his hearers to go out and possess the land for Christ and Christ oniy.À collection wus then taken up in aid of the Society, and tno benediction was pronounced.ANNUAL GREEN STEEPLECHASE Of the Montréal Bnowshoe Club \u2014 Last Night's Tramp.Last evening the Montreal 8nowshoe Club beld

Dinner This Year.Membership certificates of the Montreal Board of Trade are property of considerable value, and are being transferred at a figure away in advance of their original cost.The annual membership fee has long been and still is six doliars, but with a view to muking the membership of the Board more valuable to its possessors, the Board decided in July, 1887, to fix the entrance fee for new members at a round one hundred dollars, and any person now joining and taking out is certificate the seecre- tary wiil have to pay that sum in order to hold a seat in this parliament of commerce.Before the entrance fee was raised, the business men likely to join such an association had been pretty well canvassed, so that the membership et at a pormally high ure, ince then members wishing to withdraw have fully equalled those applying for membership, and the new members have simply purchased the certificates of the old ones at the best bargains they could make.Eleven of these transfers have been niade, the retiring members as a rule being persons leaving Montreal, and to whom a seat in the Board of Trade would no longer be of use.Of course the price of a transferred certificate will always be under one hundred dollars, the figure at which a new one could be obtained direct from the Board, the highest yal paid being $50, the registration of the transfer costing five dollars besides.These certificates are NEAT DOCUMENTS, bearing at the top a cut of Montreal as seen from the mountain.A large red seal blazes at the bottom, which bears a ship under full sail around which are the words: * Mont real Board of Trade, incorporated 1843.\u201d On (he back is an ordinary blank for the transfer.For the convenience of persons wishing to join the Board the secre

Ministers present at their next banquet, but the early opening of Parile- ment prevented them from coming down this winter.The dinner is therefore indefinitely postponed with the probability that it will not be held until next December.DINNER OF THE CIVIL ENGINEERS.Annual Meeting of the Canadian Society Speech by His Excelleney the Governer- General.Last evening the Canadian Society of Civil

Republican Senators create an annexation feeling, is pronounced by blican members on the select committee of the Benate relations with Canada to beabsolutely without foundation.Senator Hoar, the chairman, is away, and so is Senator Allison, but Senator Hale and Dolph, the only other publican members committee, enter most unqualifled denials, They say th oy gave no hearings to any one except sue as were public, and Were attended by all members of the committee, or might have been if they cared to be present.All the testimony heard was sten- ographically reported, and will bo printed in due time, and they heard no witnesses in camera.hile they refuse to sa whether, unofficially or in a private capacity, they listened to certain statements, the fact that they had done so would amount to nothing, as\u201d the committee, they say, :in making their report, would only act on the testimony before them.BALL COMMITTEES Struck in Connection with the Jubilee Ball of the Montreal Snowshoe
