of relations between the two countries, the rapidity and growth of which has no parallel in the history of any country.Yonr attention is drawn to the strong sentiments of loyalty to British

earnings of the Bank of Montreal, which was a surprise to the \u201cbulls\u201d and more thau fuifl\u2019.led the expectations of the bsars.About a week ago the \u201cballs\" were confident that the figures will be equal if not exceed those of the corresponding last half year, and it was whispered tnat ther® was a surprise in store for the \u201cshorts.\u201d The surprise came all right to-day.for the most pronounced bears did not ex\u2019pect Ie>s than six per cent for the half year, and the statement issued yeeterday morning shows only a little over five and half per cent.The earnings for the same six months last year were over six and three eighths.Speculation is now rife as to whether the usual two per cent bonus will be paid next June.Even bets were made to-day that it would not.Despite the weikness in Bank of Montreal other stocks were fairly held, particularly Commerce, which opened at 117 J and forced up to 1194 by the \u2022 bulla applying their jack-screws as a supporting order against the weakness in Bank of.Montreal, which so far all attempts have been futile in checking.The decline and values are daily disappearing as snow under a warm spring son.The amount of traorac tiona on \u201cchange\" this week was muc smaller than for «ome time past, being only 5336 shares against 7631 for last week.Bank of Montreal opened the week with sales and gradually

members of the Toronto Reform Club were present at the binquet to the Hon.W.Laurier yesterday afttrooon.Hon.Oliver Mowat presided and proposing the toast of their guest spoke in very flattering terms of the Liberal leader.Mr.Laurier in his reply after referring in general terms to the Liberal party and his selection as leader said for some time they had been anxiously expecting tbe result of the Quebec Conference.It was only two days since they had seen the result of that conference.Speaking for himself he could say that _ h*d certainly exceeded all his expectations, he had expected that a groat deal of good would be the result.When he read the resolutions which had been adopted and saw their bearing and purport and possibiliti:s, he was glad to see that they were such that the Liberal party as a whole iu all the Provinces ef the Dominion must rejo ce at their adoption beo .ose iu saw iu them a brilliant future for the party.(Cheers ) No one could deny tnat the administration of confederation f or tne last few years underthedirectionof Si* John Mac lonald had bien such as not to strengthen, but, on the contrary, to weaken the ties which bind them.(Hear, hear ) Tbe administration of Sir John A.Macdonald had not been for the benefit of the country, but had been directed Itogether for one purpose,\u2014for the coafirma-tion of the power of one man (Hear, hear.) Tne princ pies of the Confedtration ave been violated day after day and Mr Mowat knew it better than anybody e!ee, though it had been his privilege to defeat all the attempts made against his Province.(Cheers).Some of the other Provinces had not bsen as successful.As a CaoudLo, wishing for tbe welfare of his country ; as a Cana dian, hoping that, at no distant future, it will be possible to bring all the races which Providence has p\u2019aced in this corner of the British Empire to be one nation, he rejoiced in tha resolutions which had been adopred iu the Quebec Cooference.(cheers), and if carried out it seemed to him that tbe dedgu of Confederation to make us rne nation would be P'-onr.oted.Mr.Laurier left for the East last night.MEiMLONE BAILW1Ï C>F O.A.1XI A T> A.The Direct Route between the West and all Points on the Lower 8t.Lawrence and Baie des Chaleur, Province of Quebec ; also for New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward and Cape Breton Islands, Newfoundland, and St.Pierre.All the Popular Summer Sea-Bathing -AND- FISHING RESORTS OF CANADA ARE ALONG THIS LINE.New and elegant buffetsleep ing and Day Oars run on Through Ex press Trains between Montreal, Halifax and St.John Canadian, Enropean Hail, and Tassenscr Route !

brink of a political crisis.The split in the local Cabinet has been daily growing more and more serious, and Premior Norqcay is considering the question of resigning, and making a direct appeal to the country on the disallowance policy.Attorney-General Hamilton, whom many of our readers met during the conference of the Provincial delegates, last month, has been summoned to Winnipeg by telegraph.The Treasurer of Manitoba, Mr.Larivierf, has had his relations strained to such a de-gr3\\ that he can no longer remain in the same Cabinet with his colleagues.He has, report says, accordingly resigned his trust.But his resignation has not been accepted, pending the more serions action of tho Government as a whole.The whole trouble of dissension and rebellion in the ranks of the ministry, has been caused by the failure of the Red River Valley Railway scheme, and the dark charges preferred against the Government in connection with the Hudson\u2019s Bay Railway Company.Tho Pro.vincial Government has been charged by the Winnipeg Free Frets, with having issued $256,000 worth of Provincial bonds to the contractors, Mann and Pelt, and with having given 256,000 seres of land, without having taken the precaution to exact security according to the provision emphasized in tho Provincial Statutes.The Dominion Government has declined to hand over the land grant, on the ground that the contractors did not complete the work to the proper standard, and the Province has no security for the money expended.Of course, the \u201cBoodle cry,\" has been raised in Manitoba over the matter, and some prominent persons arc said to be implicated, but it is difficult to say-how much truth there is in the stories circulated broadcast.One \u2018Jiing is clear.A grave political crisis has been developed and it is only a matter of a few days when decisive action, one way or another, must bo taken by the Premier.Dissolution and a general election seem the only way out of the difficulty.There have been several important Cabinet Council meetings at Ottawa within the last few days.At the one on Friday night all the important members of the Government were present, including Sir Charles Tltper, who had arrived from the field of victory' in Nova Scotia, stronger than over, and Sir Hector Lanuevin, whose health seemed quite restumd.At this meeting, .ve hear, the chieftopics of discussion were the late Interprovincial Conference, and the coming Fisheries Conference at Washington.There will be several other Cabinet meetings held until to-morrow, when it is expected that our Commissioner and Mr.J.S.C.Thompsonf who prepares the legal statement of the Canadian case, will take passage for the American Capital.They go by way of New York.The impression in Ottawa is that the Commission will be able to agree upon a liberal basis of settlement of the vexed question.The only fear is that Congress or tho Senate wiil refuse to la-tify the proposals of the Commission.It is too early, however, to entertain a proposition like that.At least, Congress and Senate\tHouse\twill wait\tuntil the result\t»t the\tdeliberations reaches them,\tbefore\tdeciding\ton what course they will take.We are\tinclined to regard the statesmen belonging to those bodies in the light of reasonable men, and we shall be much mistaken if they decide on taking ikastic and unreasonable measures before they know officially* the cpn-clusions arrived at by the commissioners.The fishermen of Maine and the adjoining States talk loudly, and shout against having any settlement at all ot an amicable character.But the fishermen of Maine and the adjoining States Jiave not the power of the whole country in their hands.The question to be Bottled by the convention is not local at .all, but a broad, open question, involving important interests to the United States as a whole nation, and the Dominion of Canada.A mere section, though not without influence of a certain sort, is not competent to prevent the signing of a treaty between Great Britain and America.The interests of the Maine fishermen will, of course, find development in the discussion, aud they will be considered in any arrangement that may be agreed upon.But Maine and the adjoining States cannot check the progress of the country.NOTES AND NEWS.HERE AND ELSEWHERE: LOCAL ASD OTHERWISE.Our Christmas Supplement.Wo

invite the members of the Montreal Fruit Growers\u2019 Association, to attend a meeting in this city, this winter, to hear a valuable lecture on a branch of their profession.Mr.Charles Gibb, of Abbotsford, who has spent some months in Russia, and visited tho orchards of the Eastern and Northern parts of that Empire, and ascertained data concerning tho varieties of trees suitable for the colder latitudes, has an interesting and instructive lecture on tho subject.It treats principally of apple trees, and has beeii written with a view of instructing fruit growers residing in the colder sections of our Province.The idea is an exceedingly good one, and we should like to see it carried out.The Horticultural Society of Quebec should lose no time in moving in the matter.The expenses need not be heavy*.Mr.Gibb takes great interest in the movement.He brought thousands of grafts from Russia, and these he has distributed free to orchardista living in different sections of our Province,,
