the cadets will be turned into a set of rooms for one of the professors.At present two of these have their residence at Kingston, which is very inconvenient for them.I', ia, however, only a question

Cutler#\u2019 dinner, was the first opportunity afforded him of publicly speaking on the situation of affairs created by President Cleveland\u2019s retaliation message, raised expectation very hign, and the utterances of tbe Canadian representative las*, night, form the leading subject of editorial comment in the principal morning and afternoon papers, except the Times, and is the chief topic of conversation in political circles.The speech has created a favorabl* impression, ana conveys a good deal of information on Canadian and American affairs, with which tbe general public, and, indeed, some of tbe leading papers, are not as familiar as they ought to be.The Standard dwells on the importance of tho assurance made by Sir Coarloa Tupper on the subject of the fidieiim questioa.It says : \u201cWe have a light to expect that the Canadian Government will be careful not to involve us needlessly in a difficulty with foreign powers which might be avoided by conciliation and legitimate concession.In return, they may b* certain they will receive full, ungrudgiog, unrestricted support from Great Biirain m their resistince to anhwtul and unjust aggression.The fact that Eoglacd and Canada are bound to act together in this matter cannot b* too explicitely announced, or too clearly understood.charges are tbe most frivolous that were ever preferred, and surprise is expressed at Judge Smith\u2019s decision, which it is understood will be appealed.Mrs.Turnbull, of St.John, was re-elected President of the Maritime Woman\u2019s Temperance Union, Mrs.Judge Steadman Corresponding Secretary,|8nd Miss Swah Robinson Recording Secretary.The convention selected St.Stephen, N.B., as the next place of meeting.Resolutions were adopted denouncing the failure of past temperance legislation, because of ponderous machinery and technicalities, and demanding immédiate prohibition pure and simple.The convention heard with sorrow that a barroom ia kept in the House of Commons at Ottawa for the use of and by suffrage of our members, and it was resolved that they protest against this and ask the W.C.T.U.of OaUrio to unite with us in petitioning the Government to abolish it.(Jhief Engineer Schreiber was at Pugwash yesterday inspecting the works on the Short Line railway from Oxford to New Glasgow.He expressed hia satisfaction at the rapidity with which the work is

The Premier of Quebec haa hastened to ex* pLin that the ooofiscation clause in his Conversion bill ia a mere brulum fulmen.He lias communicated to the 2'iracscorrespond*nt at Philadelphia a mcmcnniam, in whim he declares positively that \u201cthe Government will renounce iti conversion scheme if it cannot be earned through voluntarily with tho bondholders,\u201d Then why, Mr.Mercier, did you not make it a Voluntary scheme o-a the face cf it ?If it was meant to be purely voluntary, what occasion was there to put io the compulsory clause, which has caused all this Uuncc3«sary trouble, and done so much harm to the credit of Quebec ?Mr.Mercier may protest as much as he pleases that it means nothing ; but if he believe* hia own words, why did he do such a tnerninglrss piece of mischief ?Moreover, why did he persist in it afier it# mischievous character had been again and again pointed out to him.?By hi* own account, before t e could g«t the bill through the Legislative Council, his Government had to pledge itself that there would be na pressure put on tha bondholders.Tne Cans-diau press strongly opposed the obnoxious olanee, as we can judge from copies now before us of the Week and the Monetary Times.Mr.Goldwin Smith\u2019* organ rejoins ve^y pertinently and pithily to tbe Government disclaimer of violent intentions :\u2014\u201cEven so ; and accepting the piedg) as giveu in good faith and absolutely leliible, it is difficult to see what the Government had to gain by incorporating in its wise Act a clause of more than doubtful morality, thus taking powers they have no intention to)pse, and whose use would be morally indefensible.\u201d If Mr.Mercier had taken time to reflect on that question, and to answer it tensihly, his CO'ltirC i- tioo clause would never have been heard of in London.When a boy clamour* for a loaded pistol and asserts that he dore nut intend to fire it, his friends naturally ask him what he wants it for, then?Canadian statesmen seem to be growing very fond of loaded pistols which they do not intend to use.(The Colonies and India.) The paragraph in cur issue of a fortnight ago respecting the Act of tho Quebec Legislature, authorizing an arbitrary reduction io the interest of a portion of the provincial debt, hss had the effect we anticipated.It has caused quite an excitement in city circles and a protest against the measure has been forwarded to the Secretary cf State for tho Colonies by several cf the leading financial houses, aikiog Lord Kuutsford to \u201ctake such steps as will withold the assent of the Crown from such ao set of confiscation as is now proposed.\u201d Judging from the s'atenr.est of the Premier of Qaebec, mvde through tho medium of the Times' correspondent at Philadelphia, Mr.Mercier is also alarmed at the courte the matte; i* taking, and se.ksto minimise tbe importance ot tho act he was instrumental in passing.But his explanation is \u201ctoo thin\u201d to nse a transatlantic expression.Mr.Mercier admits tho justiceol the complaint* made against the mea-snre by stating \u2018that bafore it was pv-sed by the Legislative Council his govertmeut give an assurance that the conversion would not be proceeded with if it could noth* arranged with tha consent of the bondholders.But an assurance which can be evaded is cf no value against an act of Parliament which is the law of the land.If the c'ause objected to was not intended to be put into force in any circun stances, why was it ever inserted in the bill ?Our reader* will remember that whsn we first called attention to the act.w* give th* Q tehee Government the credit for go^d intentiocs : but wo still maintain that the proper coarse is for the act to be disallowed.Tneu the Governmeot can piss another measure next sestiou without the offeading s.ction, and no one will rahe any objection, for any modification in the original agreement between tho bondholders and the Government iotereit* the two parties alone, hs long as tho arrangement ia voluntary, and to coercion is attempted.(Canadian Gazette.) The Premier of Quebac\u2019s attention having be»n directe I to too excitement in London over the Qubc* onnvorsion #< heme, hs makes the following public declaration t > the Times correap m lo it, but surely it is hardly necessary to p lint out that an act of Pailiamont indurés, while promises are easily broke:).As for Mr.Morcier\u2019s rofeience to the Canadian Gazette we have noth ng to withdraw of what wo said lust week.Tna demand we then made for the cxarcho of tha veto has been much strengthened by subi'quent evonta \u2014 not least amoog them Mr.Mercier\u2019s own statement\u2014and the same demand wo now desire most unhesitatingly to repeat.(London Times, August 25.)

Tupper, Sir Hector L.Lanvievin and Sir Sparrow Thoxson on the fisheries question, continue to elicit discussion, not only in Canada, but in Great Britain and the United States.The utterances of our public men aro warmly praised for their considerateness, their wholesouled patriotism, and their calmness at a time, when feeling is apt to run high.Sir Charles Tcpper\u2019s remarks at the Cutler\u2019s banquet proved the subject of editorial treatment in all the chief English papers, save the London Tivies, and we can well understand why the ** Thunderer \u201d remained silent.The High Commissioner revealed its short-comings as a purveyor of news when he referred very plainly to the sensational despatches of the Time*» Philadelphia correspondent, who undertaking to speak for the Dominion, voiced only the opinions of American reporters.Of course,the Standard treated the question at length, and profiting by the rebuke administered to it, for its rather foolish and sanguinary article of a few days ago, by thinking men generally, its editor speaks justly and moderately on the situation.Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s speech is praised for its clearness and point.The honorable gentleman did not lose his head.Much was expected from him, and he did not disappoint the popular expectation.The Cutler\u2019s banquet at Sheffield gave him the opportunity of expressing himself, for the first time, on the President\u2019s message since that document had been sent to the Senate, in reply to the rejection of the treaty and its terms.Sir Charles certainly made the speech of the evening, and his admirable defence of his colleague, Mr.Chamberlain, was in good taste, and most skilfully emphasized.(Mec & Laic SI.Joim Railway.FREIGHT-]* OTICE.flOMMENCING ON TUESDAY, 11th

and eighty-eight.Present : His Honor Elzeab A.Dkst, Recorder.The City of Quebec, Plaintiff, vs.Alice Walsh, widow of John Barry, heretofore of the City of Quebec, in the District of Quebec, Confectioner, now of parts unknown, Defendant, The St.John Globe, Liberal, says good word for Sir Hector Lanoevin and his recent speech on the rejection'of the treaty.Our contemporary pronounces the effort of the Minister of Public Works, a calm exposition of the question, and very properly considers that it expresses the Government\u2019s opinion on the subject.Sir Hector never \u201cslops over,\u201d and his utterances on any question always possess a distinct value for the reason that he carefully weighs every word that he says.To Mr.Laurier may be left the talk about shouldering muskets To some other gentlemen whom we could name, may be left the task of firing off tho fire-crackers of rhetoric.Sir Hector knows that in this matter Canada is right.He knows also' political charlatanry when ho sees it, and he has great faith in time.His speech has had a remarkably good and satisfactory effect on the country.In order to^say an unpleasant thing, the Moncton Transcript observes:\u2014 \u201cIn connection with the collapsed Fishery Treaty Sir Charles Tupper gets a baronetcy : Mr.Thompson, a Knighthood, and Mr.Somebody else some other geegaw, but will anyone, tell us what the Canadian fishermen get.It looks as if everybody but the fishermen had benefited by tho treaty.\u201d The remarks of the Transcript would have more weight, if that paper had supported the treaty in the first place, instead of wantonly condemning it.The Transcript is one of those journals which has been persistently telling the fisher men of the Maritime Provinces that the Canadian Government had sold them out, body and bones to the United States, that Canada had basely surrendered all its rights, and that the United States had, by the provisions of the compact now every trick in the game.Now that the treaty which it abused, has been rejected by the Senate of the United States, to which coun-try, our contemporary says we ignomini-ously gave away our rights, it illogically says that \u201c everybody has benefited \u201d but the very \u201c fishermen \u201d for whose benefit it was drafted.In insulting the gentlemen who have accepted Imperial honors, the Transcript virtually eats every word that it uttered against the treaty, and says now in effect that the \u201ccollapsed treaty\u201d was a good one.We are afraid the Transcript is manifesting peevish symptoms.competition is open to all Canadian Garrison Artillery.In repository exercises there will be two shifts of a 58 cwt.gun.The particulars of one of these shifts are announced before hand.The nature cf the second shift is not much known until the momont of competition arrives, being intended as a test of general knowledge and ready adaptability.Id addition to tho shifts tho batteries that

of 1888 89.Mr, Thomas Ryan mnkes the following remarks regarding the composition of the \u201cMendelssoho Quintette Club.\u201d:\u2014\u201cIn organizing the club X found it necessury to engage artis\u20186, strangers to the American public.Bearing in mild the rapid development of musical taste, it was clearly my duty to engage only artists possessing a very high quality of executive ability.To effect that purpose I went to Europe, and there found the gentleman with whom I have the honor to associate myself.I think it is no arrogance on my part to say, when I state over my name, that my new associates are fine or even superlatively fiue.The general public, the managers of societies for whom the Mendelssohn Quintette Club has played so often, have full as much reason to believe my words, ae the» which appear in newspaper articles, be they ever so honestly written.\u201cExcelsior\u201d must bo my motto.The Quintette Club has always stood at the head of its class.It must now beat its own record.I am prepared to say we will do that thing.I have made one change iu the musical organization of the club, by droppiog the flute, Instead of the usual Flute Soloist, I have engaged a second Viola player, who also plays Violoncello.Tnis improves tho str ng ensemble and enlarges the repertoire, for it enables us to phy the quintette written for two Violoncellos,and provides a bass for the Violoncello Solos.It is with pride and confidence I re-introduce my daughter, Miss Alice Ryan, as our singer, as a debutante only, she sang with us tho season before lost.Aspiring like a true American girl for tho highest honors, she returned to and placed herself once more under her devoted teacher the celebrated Mdme, Marchesi, iu Paris.Eschewing all operatic aspirations, she has studied exclusively for concert and oratorio.Having confidence in my judgment, I present her to my musical friends as a good concert sing'-r,\u201d The host tonic kn

and Mr.Wallack\u2019s carcor as manager ended with the close of the season of 18S6-7, when tfce theatre passed under the control of Mr.Henry E.Abbey.During the following season it was coutiuued as a stock theatre ;
