thence in a westerly direction along the property of Mr.Joseph Rielle and the estaté Galt a rt distance of about one half mile until the high land in reached.It is the continuation of the St.Gabriel levee which was built by the corporation of Montreal about eight years and which has been themeansof populating thelargedistrict now known as St.Gabriel ward\u2014which, previous.to the bullding of the levees, was annually subject to inundation.The total area of land, which will be acquired by the corporation of the Village of Verdun, forthe construction of the levee, will be elose upon one million superficial feet, and the area of land to be protected from inundation bythe levee will be about six hundred acres and: will extend from the River St.Lawrence to the Montreal Water Works aqueduct.The levee will be huilt of selected clay and will be a thoroughly water-tight embankment.All the clayemust be drawn in carts to increase the solidity of the dump.It will have a width of ten feet ontop, with a slope of one and a half horizoutal to one vertical, and is to have an average height of fifteen levee will be two feet above the high flood of April 18, 187%, The top of the dyke will form a good way for an electric car ser vice, and it is confidently expected that cars will \u2018be running on it as soon practicable after its completion.contract for ita erection iven\u2019 to the lowest tenderers, Mesars, en and Doheney, for the sum of $27, AS \u2018ne n Charles.The men to Lo engaged: on the work will probably be all from Montreal \u2018and district.The work will be commenced by the 15th: of May, sooner il the weather permits, and is to finished by the 1st of next October.James Adam C.À is the engineer.\u2018 A RETURN VISIT.Jamee Young will visit Ottawa and Que bec, returning here for a matinée and night rformance at the Queen's Theatre on Pood Friday.} John Kingan, Jos.de fest along the river bank.The top of the | 27,000 The firm is & well known one-otf-Point-St\u2014|.- THE JACOB © TICKET ELECTED BY THE SIR JOHN A.MACDONALD CLUB.A Lively Meeting on Saturday Night \u2014Wrangling as to Who Should Fill Some of the\u2019 Offices-\u2014A Compromise the Result.\u201cT have the floor, and I'm going to keep it, s0 sit down.\u201d \u2018These were the words, in which Mr.J.H.Jacobs, Secretary of the Sir John A.Macdonald Club, addressed his doughty opponent, Mr,.Austin Mosher, at | she sixth annual meeting of the Clab which was held at the Windsor Hotel on Saturday evening, For some time past rumor had foretold lively times at the Club's annual | meeting, and although rumors are not always Lrue nevertheless in this particular case it came very near the mark.Thechair was occupi y r.McLennan, the president of the Club, and among others present: were Messrs, H.B.Ames, Joseph Horsfall, Peter Crosb;

the Solicitor- General desired to thank the members for their kindness in tendering them a banquet, and to say that both Sir Donald and he bad decided to decline the honor, but would suggest instead that if the banquet were tendered to Sir Mackenzie Bowell at any time to suit his convenience, it would be much better.The meeting agreed to the suggestion with applause.- Mr.J.H.Jacob, hon.secretary, then submitted the annual report, which covered a great deal of the same ground as had been gone over by the president in his opening remarks, with re, to the work done before the revising barrister.Altogether the Club bad gained 215 names for the Federal voting list In St.Lawrence Ward.\u2018Fimancially the re showed that the expenditure had slightly exceeded the receipts, the figures being\u2014expenditure $400, receipts $377.It was felt that t credit was due to the ns who had canvassed for new members to the Club, which now has a membership of four hundred.THE RLECTION OF OFFICERS wasthen proceeded with, Messrs.Hyde, Topp and Doughty being appointed scrutineers.Sir Mackenzie Bowell was elected honorary resident, and Sir Donald Smith and the fon.J.J.Curran, honorary vice-presidents;

Approve of Claims Made to the Upper Nile Region\u2014 Hanotaux's Evasive Reply Very Unsatisfactory to Britain.* LONDON, April 8.\u2014The relations of France and Britain In Africa are becoming \u201ca topic of much interest in Europe.According to the latest advices Belgium, both diplomatically and practically Will support France in her claims in the Upper Nile Valley.The Belgian Congo State expedition under Van Kerchoven which started in 1803, effected a march towards the Nile, penetrating to a great distance inland.This was all that was generally known of the expedition until very recently, its movements having been kept dark.Through a report of Commandant Franqui, who was left in charge of the advanced st, which Van Kerchoven established,the fact has been disclosed that a number of Belgian forts have been erected on the Upper Nile basin.This is the first authoritative information that the expedition had penetrated to the Upper Nile, that has been made public.Commandment Franqui bas made a report to the Administration of the Congo State.informing the authorities that the dervishes are menacing his position and urgently requesting that reinforcements be sent him before it shall be too late.Onthe strength of this, it is said thay King Leopold \u2018is projecting another expedition, with the ostensible pu of strengthening the outpoats of the former one.Iv is suspected in the Foreign Office, however, that under an agreemént with France, concluded IN THE AUTUMN OF 1894, King Leopold will co-operate with France in the establishment of a Franco-Belgian {tion on the left bank of the Upper Nile Petore the English can secure a similar position and accurately define their aims.M.Hanotaux, the French Minister of ____ Foreign Affairs, demands that E as the first step in the pending negotiations, shall define what are suppcsed to be the boundaries of her sphere of influence, This demand has acted as a check to the policy of the Foreign Office.The Sultan of Turkey holds the suzerainty of the whole region in question, including the equatorial provinceformerly governed by Emin Pascha.A section of the British Cahinet are reported to be in favor of making a decisive declaration, clalming the whole valley of the Upper Nile to be within the British sphere, and denying that the Sultan has any rights in the Emin territory.It is believed that M.Hanotaux is willing to refer the matter to arbitration or to conference.But, on the other hand, 1t Is suspected that England ls unwilling to do either, lest the question of her occupation of Egypt.should become involved.Meanwhile, the strain between the two governments, despite the pacific words of M.Hanotaux, becomes interisided.= e-disputeis \u201cWR keenest interest in Berlin.Nothing since the Anglo-Belgian agreement, and the Emperor's interference to frustrate it, has caused such general comment among the colonial enthusiasts throughout the German Empire, says a Berlin telegram.The newspapers are almost unanimous in sup- portion France against the claims put forth y Sir Edward Grey in the House of Commons on Thursday of last week.The same tendency is apparent in official circles.The sympathy of the Gorman Foreign Office undoubtedly is with France, partly owing to a fresh dispute with England as to the claims of the British Africa Company.Supported by the British Government, this Company planned the ac- qujrement from German syndicates of vast stretches of territory within the German sphere of influence.The arrangetients were complete, but the transfer HAD NOT BEEN EXECUTED when the matter was brought forcibly to the attention of the Berlin Government, which at once interfered to prevent the Company from a\u2018tempting to- occupy the land.The dispute concerns territory along the British boundary, and the Germans are jonvinced that, in one way or another, the ritish Government is still planning to ab- gorb the territory in question.This conviction irritates the Colénial _Department, although it is certain diplomatic communications between Berlin and London wili lead to the abandonment of the English claim.The Berlin Krenz Zeitung, Tory and anti-British, commends France's attitude toward Sir Edward Grey's state ment.It praises also the energy.with which France proceeded against the con- sumiation of the Anglo-Belgian treaty and her subsequent skill in reaching an entente with Belgium.\u201cGermany.\u201d adds the Kreuz Zeitung, \u201cought to find inspiration in France's example.We ought todefend our interests with equal energy, and curb England's encroachments, t lng.to obtain the dominant influence in the South African regions where England is beginning toshow signs of weakness,\u201d The Koclnische Zcitung makes this comment \u2018on M.Hanotaux's statement in the French Senate on Friday evening: \u201cM.Hanotaux is right in asking England for an ueéurate detinition of her claims to territory in the Upper Nile region.He is right also in contending that the Germau and Italian treaties did not commit France to recognition of England's hold upon the Nile Valley.\u201d The press of the Colonial party calls] for an understanding with France and against England and her pretensions in Africa, even to the cx- tent of letting France seize and hold the Upper Nile until England shall get out of Egypt.The Tayebluits special correspondent in Madagascar,the explorer Herr Wolff, ir sending stroux anti-British letters from the island.He says the German merchants there are delighted with the prospect of an active French protectorate.\u201cThey are eager to get rid of the English adventures,\u201d he says, \u2018\u2018and to see [France deprive these men of their spoils and open the country to settlers and traders.\u201d The Hovas, according to Woltl, are alrendy exasperated with their English partisans who advised the dwar.\u201cLÉ they do not-cut -the throats of these Englishmen before the French ar rive,\u201d he predicts, \u201cthey will at least have them shot without pity.\u201d .NEW YURK, April 5.\u20140f the Franco-An- glo situation Harold Frederic cables the Times: \u201cM was expected that M.Iano- taux would deliver the reply uf the French Foreign Ottice to the British détlarations on Wednesday last, and the postponment of this utterance to Friday measurably increased the anxicty here.\u201d Now that the reply has come there is a unanimous agree: ment here that it will not do.M.Häno- taux electad to speak in the calm atmosphere of the Senate rather than inthe ox- citable Chamber of Deputies, and so far as form went nothing could be more temperate and courteous than Lis words, BUT THEIR SUBSTANCE IS BAD, France, wo are told, denies utteriy that England has territorial rights on the Upper Niger, and is incredulous about lier claim to predominance in the Upper Nile valley, uite as significant is What ive did not say, be chief point of Sir Edward Grey's speech last week was hisexpression of official hope that France would disavow the armed cx- ilions reported to be now in both the iger and Nile territories.Except.infer.entially, some remarks about courageous explorers, M.Hanotaux did uot mention these expeditions at all.This, of course, amounts to a French official sanction which.the British Forelzu office has Publicly described to Parliament on he hypothesis of their existence \u2019 as unfriendly.and of a most serious nature.\u201cThe matter, of course, does not end here Where it will end it is in np man's pow to say.Questions will be\u2019 asked in _t House of Conimons, but whether the Go ernment will be ready then to talk is not Jot certain.It is reported from Paris that with the {- 3 freeh 1 tion in the tise pret ak Sora there le to be a Chamber oft ance that, the ou added (rnoulence, and many rauh things will be said by the Deputies in the debate, noe will never dare to go to the length of au actual war with Englaod, it only for the reason that it wo mean sacrifice of all continental aspirations for rts, and lovyin as ransom for towns like Marseilles avre, an_ indemnity larger than the Germans exacted.Another Loudon cable says: M.Hano- taux\u2019s exposition of thle views of the Government on the serious African questions wherein the interests of France and England conflict, naturally arouses much interest in London, The tone of his speech fis not regarded as hostile, but \u2018none of the London papers consider that it answers the complaints of the Rosebery Cabiner.He has said \u2018not one word explaining the expedition to the Niger region, the irritating policy of the Niger company In monopolizing trade and preventing the transit of other people across its territory.Heargues that tl © company's claim is contrary to the treaty of Berlin, and cannot be recognized until the question is settled by diplomacy.He has afforded vance of the French expedition to the pper Nile, but dexterously claims for France the recognition of her rights over the Upper Ouboughi.He denies the British claim in the Upper Nile, but on this point, as on all others, he has overlooked the fact that the French frontiers are lust as indefinite as the British.There is nothing reassuring in the apeech.\u2014_\u2014 BRITISH POLITICS.The Domestic Happenings of the Motherland.LONDON, April 8.\u2014Parliament has rarely.had before it so technical and so complex a measure as the Irish Land bill.The kernel of this proposal lies in what is called the improvement , Clauses.ese commend themselves-so much-to the Ulster\u2014ten: that body, Mr.T.should cordially, heartily and strenuously support Mr.Morley\u2019s bill.\u201cThis action n doubt, Lelped to force the hand of the landlords, and to it is largely attributable the circumstance that the bill was unopposed on the second reading.Mr, Balfour admitted that the act of 1881 should be amended in some form, but this measure re-opens too widely the whole land question, and would encourage further demands on the \u2018part-ot-ténants for the perpetuation of a i me 0 tion of this is found in Mr.Sexton's declara- the Land League and would result in the further manipulation of rents with a view \u2018to some\u2019 future superstructure of purchases.It was certainly a sensible suggestion that the bill should be referred to a committee of both Houses, because the landlords rit in the one and the tenants in the other.The real struggle over the measure will come in comsnitive, by pressing the Government to threaten last yeay's gagging.Any such step would dry up whatever sympathy the Lords may have for the measure, and several of them are not unfavorable to many of the elauses.Iv is expected that- within the next few lain and Ba of the great body of Tories as\u2014well.is not only a savage feeling between the Tories and Unionists over the Warwick seat, where the whole Tory party is in mutiny against.Peel's son, but a bitter attack on Chamberlain in \"the New Review has been traced to two of Balfour's intimate friends\u2014which bas the effect of oil on the flames.\u2018 The retiring Speaker, Arthur Wellesley Peel, will deliver his farewell address to the House of Commons to-day.7 The Cabinet has now declared its intention of supportin » Gully's nomination for the speakership.This is virtually yielding to the pressure of the Radical section in Parliament, and as the Irish vote will probably cast with the Radicals, Dr.Gully\u2019s election is now assured.The whole object of this nomination is to prevent the Oppost- tion from securing the speakership for one of their own party in the person of Sir Matthew White-Ridley.Certain of the Gladstonians who were favorable to Sir Matthew White-Ridley, personally now declare to treat this aflair purely on party lines, and his support will be limited to Conservatives and a few Unionists.HH the Conservatives should be successful in the next general election and should decide to Appoint one of their own arty color to the £ kership in the New Parliament, Mr.Gully will probabl have the first judgeship at the disposal ot his party.The whole transaction is now reduced to a miserable party issue.John Sweetman, anti-Parnellite M.P.for the éast division of Wicklow, has resigned his seat.In a letter to his constituents he says: .It the Irish party were actuated by the old spirit of Parnell we should not see a Government favoring Home Rule discredit itselt by clinging to office while admitting that it is powerless to legislate, Mr.Sweetman requests his constituents to re-elect him as an Irish Nationalist, independent of all English parties.THE POLITICAL SITUATION is decidedly tame.The Conservatives, who have been in expectation that the House of Lords will absolutely reject the Welsh Church Disestablishment Bill have been badly shaken up by .a report that Lord Salisbury is in communication with the Bishops, for the purpose of advising them that the better way to treat the Bill would be simply to nlter it in Committee in the House of Lords so as to secure genarnns terms for the

Wilde is languishing in gaol as a criminal, without bail, on a heinous charge\u2014still he has a number of in- Huential friends-who are zealous in his defence, notwithstanding that they are intimate

looking of the family.Before: the death of his eldest brother, Viscount Drumlanrig, he was well and favorably known as Percy Douglas.He has-an un- smirched reputation and is entirely different in avery respect from his effeminate next younger brothér, Lord Alfred Doug- tas.ut since his return from Australia last autumn, Lord Douglas of Hawick, has been an almost constant associate of Oscar Wilde.In an interview he said that every one in his family, excepting his father, refused to believe the accusations ainst Wilde.He, himself, he said, was willing at any time to go upon the witness stand in W.'s behalf, and he was vehement in his denunciation of Wilde's counsel for having withdrawn the suit.: The maximum penalty of the crime with which Wilde is charged is life imprisonment, and not two years as stated, and the minimum is twenty years.Until 1 when the law was modified, the penalty for e offence was death.: One thing Is certain, howevet\u2014no matter what may be the outcome

purposes, was cleatly enough shown in the law re- + garding it which he caused to be-passed when Premier and Minister of Justice.\u2018The Crimigal Code of 1892 was particularly \" his own work.Now Section 133, of that Code providas, among other things, that: Every one is guilty of an offence and liable to & fine of not less than ons hundred dollars, and not exceeding one thousand dollars; and to im- eo prisonment for aterm not-excecding one year and not less than one month, and in default of payment of such fine to imprisonment for a fur ther term not exceeding six months, who, having\u2019 any contract with the Government for the performance of any work, the doing of anything or the furnishicg of any goods, eff:cts, food or materials, and having or expecting to have any - \u2014 daim or demand against the Government by rea- soû of slèh contract, either directly or indirectly, by himself or by any person on his behalf, subscribes, furnishes or gives, or prom- {ses to subscribe, furnish or give, any money or other valuable consideration for the purpose of promoting the election of auy candidate, or of any number, class or party of candidates to a Legisiature or to Pagliament, or with the intent in any way of influencing or affecting the result of a Provincial or Dominion election.An additional clause adds that \u201c\u201cif the value of the amount or thing, paid, offered, given, loaned, promised, received or subscribed, as the case may be, exceeds one thousand dollars, the offender under this section is liable to any flne not exceeding such value.\u201d Sec.134, provides that \u201cEvery person convicted of an offence under the next preceding section shall be Incapable of contracting with the Government, or of holding any contract or office with, from or un- ~~\" der it, or of receiving any benefit under such contract.\u201d Couldlaw be writ plainer?Sir John was the leader of a political party which must sooner or later appeal to the country; but - so far as ho could help it\u2014and he armed himself with a law to make his will the stronger\u2014that party should not rob - the country to fill its campaign treasury.-i \u201d ve ® I \" ' \u201c 5 i 3 re Unluckily for this Canadian people, Sir ., .John Thompson caunot now enforos this .law of his own making; and it remains to \" be seen how his successors will forward the work be began, The Toronto Globe tells us that Mr.Laurier suggested this provision to Sir \u201cJohn Thompson during the session of \u201891, which puts behind it the opinion of the ___ Liberal leader as well as the framer of the Code.It must, indeed, em- \u201cbody the convictions of all honest men.This system of squeezing enor mous subscriptions out of public contractors has been so flagrantly and in- » decently manipulated in the past, that it is \"in the last degree expedient to prohibit Ly law the very opportunity for its continuation.Now it is simply a matter of law en- - forcement.The Globe naturally.distruste the probable strictness of this enforcement.Jt says: ; The contractors for all Government works in progress or in prospect bave been found at Ottawa recently.If they yield to any pressure exercised upon them to contribute to the election fund for tho by-elections they will bave themselves to blame for the consequences.It may be that a Government will soon be in power - which will put into force every provision of the - law inat them, including impri t, fines and forfeitures of contracts.Special commissions will undoubtedly be established to investi gate to the bottoin all breaches of the law by public contractors.This is a timely warning, which indi- \" cates the policy that the Liberals will moss certainly pursue toward the contractors that give comfort to the enemy\u2014whatever they may subsequently do for their friends, should they get in power.It is the hope ot the publio-æptrited, however \u2014 and they may soon be numerous emough to make It a command\u2014that the law will be observed for the future by ._ 487 who may be In power.Could we reach : as dutedé publié works weald become 1 fit of the 112,915 possible that we dare not noi ventère

well that she is about to extend the provisions of her Manhood Suffrage Re- Kistration Act to towns, ne novel feature of this law is not really the manhood suffrage principle but the\u2018 \u2018registration\u201d system which provides an easy method for the preparation of voters lists under which they are always freshly prepared for every election.No other plan can so effectively disentran- chise the graveyard and limit the fleld of the \u201ctelegraphers\u201d operations.The Federal franchise system has the double defect of costliness and inefficiency; and the man most fearful of the extension of the franchise could not object to the exceeding.\u2018ly slight change that the substitution of manhood suffrage for the present law would make.Fear has been expressed that registration woüld not take place \u201cunder sufficiently responsible direction.In answer to this it may be pointed out that the Ontario Act provides that in county towns the Board of Registrars is to consist of the county judge, the police magistrate and the clerk of the County Court.In all other towns the police magistrate, the town clerk, and the clerk of the Division Court will constitute the board.Here, surely, is enough official- stability behind the system.The county judge is, indeed, the revising barrister under the Federal law in many places in Ontario; and there is little room to doubt that the work of registration will be decently and legally done.Of course, the perfect electoral system is yet.to appear.It will probably precede by very little the perfect.politica.But, in the meantime, economy, efficiency and common sense [argue together for a federal manhood suf: frage and voluntary registration law.SECOND BALLOTTING IN BRIT.M, Dalziel\u2019s proposal to introduce the second ballot principle into the British electoral system is a logical result of the-divi- sion of parties into \u201c\u2018grotips.\u201d Naturally, under present conditions, the Liberals are inclined to favor this scheme; for one danger which threatens then in the coming election is the possibility that the appearance of a Liberal and a Labor\u2019 or a Radical candidate in the same constituency may result in splitting the Rosebery vote and giving a Rosebery seat to a Conservative or Liberal Unionist, The diffi culty between these two latter groups as to the succession in the constituency that Speaker Peel is about to vacate, may destroy the Happy understanding under whieh they now avoid all collisions; and s0 make it convenient for them too to have some second ballots in disputed dis.| tricts.No doubt, the avowed object of any electoral system as to get at the real will of the electorate; and if groups are permanently to replace parties in Dritish politics,\u201d something like second ballotting will become advisable.But it is yet to be seen whether or not the present crop of \u201cgroups\u201d is anything more than the inevitable unevenness of formation in moving to new ground.THE REFERENDUM.Mr.R Stanldy We Weir expounded the principles of the Referendum befors the leasant Sunday Afternoon Society yesterday.There was a audience.The speaker endum as an excellent method of Applied Christianity.He pointed out that representative government as applied to municipal affairs had proved a fal ure, as it had none of the checks, which made such government efficient.Our.eouneil had no: second chamber; the yor had no veto wer and there was no revising board as n England.Nor were such devices desirable, The great abuses of to-day were in connection with gas, electric and rail- francises.The people should have the rig t Lo pronouncè upon any by-law dealing with such franchises by voting upon them, The possession of such power would probably make its exerciss very seldom necessary.Amendments to the charter should be {nsisted upon at next session, so that the people should have this means of checking dishonest or foolish waste of valuable city rights.If public franchises were sold at their.real value, a at diminution of taxation would be easily possible.e and interested vocated the Refer- A SERMON ON \u201cWAR.\u201d Rev.D.C.Sanderson, of Centenary Methodist Church, is preachin à course of sermons which are attract] considerable attention.In his sermon ast night on \u201cWar,\u201d he spoke strongly on the subject of imperial unity.Canada and the other colonies ought to be represented in the highest court of the empire.With local self-government in England, Ireland aud Scotland, a higher law- -making power should be convened, and' which should s and be representative of even the remotest colony.The position of England in the Councils of the nations would much higher than ae is to-day.He looked forw to al federation, when our cousins to the sou uth, as part of the Anglo-Saxon family, wo 1d have an alliance, offensive and defensive, with this Greater Britain.When that time came these confederated powers would be able to declare that war should cease on the earth.| CAVE-IN AT THE STATION, Vehicle traffic on Notre Dame street has been blocked at the site of the new C, P.R.Station by the caving in of

Their Reports to be Submited to the General Assembly in June.After the union of the several branches of Presbyterianism in 1875 the books of praise used in the four uniting bodies were used, just as before the union, for a number of years.In 1580 the General Assembly sanctioned and commended the Hymnal which bas been in use for fifteen years.Three years ago the Supreme Court of General Assembly instructed its Hymnal Committee to obnsider the question of enlarging or revising the Hymnal.The first meeting of the Committee, with this end in view was held in Montreal in June, 1893, and this was followed by a prolonged meeting, running over seven days, in Toronto toward the end of the year.The Gen \u2018Assembly, at the time df giving instructions for the enlargement mission to the Hymnal Committee to confer with similar comraittees of other Presbyterian churches, in expectation of the preparation of a Book of Praise which might be used in common among the Presbyterian churches throughout Christendom.hen the Pan Presbyterian Council was holding its sessions in Canada in 1893 the bly arranged for a comference, which w.participated in by representatives from t tablished Church of Sco\u201d, e.F) Church ot Scotland, the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland, the Presbyterian Churoh in England, the Presbyterian Church in Aystralia, and the Presbyterian Church in Canada.The immediate outcome of the conference was the passing of a resolution in the following terms: Inf the he judgment of of this meeting it ia very de- siral lymnal for the amo es in the British £ Empire holding the Pres- bytorian system, and it is agreed to appvlnt a \u201coomuittes vo propars & 5taïéinènt to be coniibu- nicated to the Supreme Courts of the churches here represented, and to correspond at ence with ymnal Committees, whore such exist iñ the several churches, in order to have the matter of a comman Hymnal brought under the notice of the Supreme Court at as early a date as pussible, and to take an further steps necessary -to secure the objcèt in v .At the General Assembly of 1893, held in Brantford, the Hymnal Committee re orted progress in the work, and asked the Assembly to adopt certain recommendations.\u2018Some of the Committee's proposals were accepted, others were altered or replaced by substitutes.Before the Assembly com- leted its work in connection with the ymnal in 1803, a resolution\u2019 og nassod adopting t recommendations «they represented no judafnent of of the Court, tue Draft Praise which ittee had submitted was sent down to the) various Presbyteries in the church, with instructions to report their views thereupon to the Assembly of 1884, Last ear at the [meeting of:the General Assemb- vin St Jobu, N.Be, great deal of time was taken up with pital matters.The committee réported that thirty-seven Presbyteries had expressed' themselves ou the subject remitted to them.Twenty-nine out of the thirty-seven declared in favor of retaining the whole Psalter.This the committee said was in accord with their own judgment.The Assembly therefore resolved that the 150 Psalms in metrical form in common use throughout the church retained as part of the new Book of Furthermore twenty- -two Presbyteries exp desire for some new versions of salms in metre, and eleven Presbyteries aeked for selections from the version now in use and from other versions.The Hymnal Committee expressed themselves unanimously in favor of such selections, and a resolution was passed by the Assembly that some new versions and Teeloctions from the Book of Psalms, in verse, should be incorporated In the new Book of Praise, and that the selections submitted by the Committee, when approved or revised, should form the first part of the new Hymnal.The Preabyter on gene nerally, called for selections from the araphrases, now in use, to be incorporated with the hymns of the new hymnal, which accorded with the views of the General Assembly as set forth in an additional resolution.It was furthermore passed by the St.John Assembly that the new book shall be called \u201cBook of Praise,\u201d and that it should include the whole of the Psalms in the metrical version now in use, selections from the prose version of the Psalms and other portions of Scripture for chanting, selections from the Psalms in the ordinary metrical version and in other versions, hymns approved and adopted by the Assembly, and Scripture sentences.In view of the liberty which belongs individuals and congregations tojuse a of praise in one or more 8, as it may issue from the publishing bouse the Assein- bly ordered that no book containing any ortion of the materials included in the ook of Praise shall receive the imprimatur of the Supreme Court, unless it contains one of the two following portions, viz., the metrical Psalms as a whole, or else the approved selections from the same.After the passage of other resolutions bearing upon certain details, it was finall determined that the Book uf Praise, including the 150 Psalms, selections and h submitted to the General Assembly, s should be sent down again to Presbyteries for consideration, with instruction that they report their views respecting it.on or before Mareh 1, 1895, through the Hymnal Committee, with a view to its submission to the General.Assembly, which is Lo convene in London, Ont., in June of the present year, The Presbyteries throughout \u2018the church have had the Book of Praise under consid- to k eration throughout the year.Until the committee arge tabulates the returns, an presents them to the Assembly in June it will not be known fully what the pro- notincement of the Presbytery bas been.It is known, however, that a very mark interest has been shown ja the preparation of the work in all parts of the church from the Atlantic to the Pacific.This is as it should be in a matter of such importance as the production of a book of praise for so large and influential a denomination as the Prenbytoria n vod in in Canada, rood good eal has a red in prit ut, anda deal more has bien said that has not attained the prominency of printed matter, about additions to and subtractions from what has hitherto obtained in the books used in the praises of the sanctuary.Opinions have been exchanged about the place of the metrical Psalms,and the burden of diversity in judgment on the wholé matter of t! preparation of the new k as found in connection with the selections from the psalms.As matters appear at addition will be made to the book which the Supreme Court will sanction, but what will be the choicest and the best along the\u2019 lines of doctrine, heart, rhythm and tune; and nothing will be subtracted which can warrantably interfere with the hallowed associations that have come down from generation Keneration alo with the bistorical and admirable Paaiter.Two members of the Hymnal Committees are in the motherland at present negotia-

reasonable expectations regarding it.Although business is still quiet, the indications of improvement are imore numerous than heretofore, and this is perceptible in the number, character, and volume

close, and as rezards renting, owners generally are disappointed at the results so far of the season's business.The necessity of economy has forced a many tenants to look for cheaper rents, re theyhave apparently not lost anything by waiting.Failing everything else, there isal ways somespot in the country whereone can \"Ed to and by the time summer is over something will turn up, or business will have improved.One source of comfort to the owner is, that there are not many new houses under way, and the number planned far construction \u2018during this year sul he much less than formerly, so that the demand will have an epportariey of catching up with the supply.There is no change this month in the mortgage loan market.\"Money is plentiful, and 5 per cent, is the ruling rate for fa! \u2018r amounts when the application is firat class in every respect.Lenders are cautious, however, and insist on a proper margin.There were 181 real estate transfers in | the city wards aud

afternoon, choosing for his sub- ect, \u2018\u2019Godliness-is profitable for all things, aving the promise of the life which now is, and of that which is to come.\u201d The rev.| gentleman illustrated in a pointed manner how the Christian life benefitted the y, soul and mind of the individual.Young men often thought it good for the soul, but not for the body or mind: but the aker's thirty years\u2019 experience in the Christian life had proved that it benefited all three.It brought health and prosperity to the body, happiness and Christian love to the suul, ease and contentment to the mind.Young men were exhorted to begin the godly life while they were yet young, and to allow sobriety and pur ty to have such an influence over their Setions that others, - seeing works, might strive to imitate their example.: This evéning the closing \u201cmeeting in connection with the social work of the Association for 1894-5 will be held in the parlor, and will take the form of an

Address.[SPECIAL TO THB STAR] \u201c QUesee, April &\u2014Thère is very liltle appearance of an election in Quebec West, although the nomination takes place tomorrow.IL was expected that a Liberal candidate would have entered the field at the last moment, but it has now - been decided that the Liberals will allow Messrs.MeGreevy and Dobell to fight the battie out between themselves.The constituency has always been.represented in both\u2019 cal and Federal Parliaments by Irish Roman Catholics, and when it became know that the writs would be issued Senator Pelletier called a meeting of prominent Irish Roman Catholte Liberals to \u2018select a candidate, No agreement could be arrived at on that point although the names of Messrs, C.Fitzpatrick, Q.C.1.\u201dA.Hearn and L.Lynch were mentioned.Mr.Fitzpatrick was unwilling, it appears, togive up his mandate as the representative for Quebec County in the local legislature, so the Liberals have thrown, in their lot with Mr.Dobell and will sapport him as he declares himself in_ favor of reciprocity with the United States.One of the Liberal leaders of this city in couversation with a STAR correspondent this morning said: ** We hav \u2018done our best to bring out an Irish Roma Catholic Liberal but we cannot get them to agree on a candidate.Now we do not think jt right to nominate a French Canadian Liberal and it would be ridiculous to allow Mr.Motireevy to be elected without opposition\u2019 after fighting him so hard in parliament.If we did not oppose him somehow Mr.Laurier's friends would naturally think it strange that in a city, one of the divisions of which he represents, he could not o] Mr.McGreevy.Lowell shall support Mr: Dobell.\u201d However, matters are pretty well mixed | at present, as a number of Irish Liberals will nut vote for Mr.Dobell, who will\u2019 ob tain a large French and a good English vote.Un the other hand, Mr.McGreev will have the large majority of the Iris Cathoiics and a good number of English and French supporters, The friends of both candidates are contident of their success on the seventeenth instant.\u201cMr.Dobell's nomination papers were signed last autumn and contain names representing all creeds and nationalities.A number of prominent liberals signed his requisition this morning.\u201d Mr.Dobell's answer to the electors requesting him to come forward will be published to-morrow and is as follows: To the Electors of Quebec West: GENTLEMEN, Owing to the death of your late member, the 116n.John Hearn, a vacancy has arisen in your .Lhave to acknuwledge the

a reporf which was current this morning that Oscar Wilde has at- temp to commit suicide and it is not true that even a rumor to this effect was current here yesterday evening.Further startling revelations in connection with the Wilde case are hinted at.It is said that Alfred Taylor has determined to drag down with him all he can if he is | prosecuted, and that this will involve one of the must prominent men in England whose name has been freely whispered about in connection with the scandals which have just come to light as à result of the card which the arquis of Queensberry left at the Albe- marie Club on February.18 last for Oscar.Wilde.The trial: of Lord Russell's matrimonial suit at this time intensifies the loathing which bas manifested itself in England concerning the revelations in the.(Wilde case.Thé same charge Is at the basis jn the Russell case.The finger of on suspicion now points at many other public men.The police have reason to believe that the recent exposures are causing a panic- stricken exodus from England of wan persons, \u2018such as followed the Clevelan Street scandal a few years ago.The police have, since the arrest of Alfred Taylor, searched his house, and are said to have certain photographs and autograph letters in their possession which incriminate many members of the Taylor- Wilde cult.Taylor spent $60,000 furnishing his house, which les with oriental splendor and sensuous luxury.One of the features of the drawing room is a marble fountain which spouts perfume instead of water.Taylor's mania ollowed the sudden accession of opulence.His father, who was prominent in the city, was once close to the Lord Mayor's be used to gratify every physical appetite.The newspapers of this city openly denounce this disgrace to society.The Tcle- gram says: There is more than the indivi- ual himself to be considered in the matter.The just verdict of Saturday must be held to include with him the tendency of hia uliar career, the meaning and influence of his teaching, aud all those shallow and specious arts by which be and his like have | attempted to establish a cult and even to set up new schools of literature, the drama and social thought.These men, linking a certain real sense of beauty.with profligate tastes and pro- \"fane mockery, have exercised a visible influence upon the generation cursed by their presence.You may trace them to- \u2018day, we are ashamed to declare, in the outlying regions of the press, where a certain class of publications strives to exiat which bas for its inspiration the

domain of fiction, so that we see novel after novel aspire to a moment's popularity mainly on the grounds of prurient sexuality or of ignorant disbelief, The Chronicle saya: \u201cFor a long time past

retains its present attitude and refuses to submit to arbitration the right to the territory which Vene- ruela claims has been \u2018usurped by British Guiana.There is no question that Venezuela, in the event of trouble between herself and Great Britain, would look to the United States tor moral, financial and material support.Venezuela's army on a_peace footing does not exceed eight thousand men but it is claimed that she vould raise 100,000 troops within sixty days.Many of these troops charge of obtaining money under false pretences.Shepard will be well remembered in Montreal.\u2018 \u201cShepard came here to rob people,\u201d said Mer.Juhi A.Grose this morning, \u201cwe had him arrested under the charge of obtainin money under false pretences, Hestarte what was known as the International Labor Bureau in Place d'Armes Square.e had a branch on.Chaboilelz Square and another on Dorchester street, \u2018and would advertise in all the newspapers that he had- situations vacant for bookkeepers, clerks, housemaids, housekeepers, cooks, codchmen, or in fact ahything to suit the taste of people who were out of employment.ben_.they visited him he always charged a feetof from one to ten dollars, accordink to the'appearance of his victim, but \u2018failed, to obtain any positions.Another \u2018scheme of his\u2019 was to advertize for partners to act as managers.By these meuns he fleeced several young men as well as married men, from the surrounding country byholding out inducements to them which he could never fill.Thase whom he would place in positions as managers would pay him sums averaging from $100 to $300, this giving them, as he alleged, a share in the profits of the business.Some of these were rent to Ottawa aud as far west as London Ont.The more money he got out of them the further away he would send them, in the hope that they would never eome back again.Although She has had labor bureaus and worked the same game in a number of cities in the United States, and has been arres several times on the same charge,\u201d continued Mr.Grose, \u201cMont real is the only city in which he was ever convicted.He is now under arrest at Trenton, N.J., and 1 wired the Chief of Police there this mording telilng him that we could give him his record, it Acces, but, 1 do not think they will cofvict him \" thero® : *\\Why do you think that?\u201d \u201cBecause it {s a long and tedious undertaking to work up evidence of this kind and they do not feel like entering into such a lengthy and expensive proceeding in the States, Shepard is certainly one of the mast polished confidence men that I ever met.Shepar went from here to Salt Lake City, opening a labor bureau there: and then he weut to Brooklyn, N.Y.He to different cities and when-the
