Chief Secretary for Ireland, has taken to Dublin a draft of Mr.Gl&dstoue\u2019s Home Rule Bill, which will be submitted to the Irish leaders.Mr.Morley will explain to them the main provisions of the measure with the view of receiving suggestions as to mollifications they may deem essential.It is understood that the measure provides for the relation of the full strength ot the Irish party in the Imperial Parliament and for the strengthening of the Imperial veto.Tlie determination of Mr.Lahouchorc, t ho well-known Radical member for Northampton, to move an amendment to the Address in reply to the Queen's Speech on tho question of the retention of Uganda, has already obtained for him promises from a score of members that they will support such an amendment.Should the Govern ment majority disappear on the first division, which appears likely, when a vote is taken on the Uganda amendment, the Government will be saved from a collapse by the Unionists, who sup-irt the Government's policy so far as ganda is concerned.The expected Radical desertions will not overthrow the Cabinet.The police have decided to prohibit the torchlight parade of unemployed workingmen.Mrs.Parnell, who recently took advantage of the Bankruptcy Act, has offered her creditors ten shillings on the pound.She admits that she lias a net annual income of I'SOO.Her liabilities are £6,869 and her assets £4,825.A compromise with her creditors at ten shillings on the pound would, therefore, be very favorable to her, leaving her £1,319 of her assets.Mrs.Parnell was recently examined by a doctor, who pronounced her prospects for living long very precarious.He declares that her life is an absolutely uninsurable risk.The Church Mission Society is anxious that the British East African Company shall remain in Uganda and is trying to raise £40,000 early to subsidize tbe Company to protect \u2019roteatant missions in Uganda.The 7Wfyra/)A\u2019* cor respondent at St.Petersburg sends an account of a horrible crime committed by peasants at Zostrzki, in Lithuania.The peasants assembled in the night at the house of a horse thief, who they wished to punish.The thief was asleep at the time with his wife and five children.The jeasanta set fire to the hut and kept watch or the occupants.As the shrieking inmates tried to escape, they were met with fiendish Yells by the heartless wretches and driven 9Ack into the (lames with scythes, knives and other weapons.One of tho inmates was murdered.All the others were burned to death.The culprits afterwards surrendered in a body to the police.The Madrid correspondent of the Netcs says that at a Cabinet meeting yesterday, the Queen Regent presiding, the Premier, Senor Canovas Del Costello, announced that the treaties of commerce had l>een concluded with Sweden and Norway, Holland, Denmark, Switzerland and Portugal.The Standard's Paris correspondent quotes the Journal d>s Delia's as expressing the opinion that little will come of the Panama Canal inquiry, the Comwiittee\u2019s powers being too limited in scope.The Journal fails to see how the Chamber of Deputies will ba able to deal with charges against Senators.M.Spoiler expresses similar views.The Paris correspondent of the Daily News says :\u2014The Panama Canal Investigation Commission lias decided that no reports of proceedings shall he issued to the press, but that members of the Commiision may impart to journals such information as they may see fit on their own responsibility.A Paris correspondent says that the passive manner in which Abomey was captmcd by the French, is a disappointment to the 1 rench artisan class, which hud expected a brilliant victory, and a correspondingly brilliant celebration of it.The French Tribunal of Comme-ce has decided that racing tips are

compels all emigration agents to take out licenses and to submit their books o Government inspection.The bill prohiidts the emigration of men between the ages of 17 and 25 who are liable to military service.It also prohibits the emigration of Germans whose fares are paid by a foreign company or agent.(Several other stringent resolutions ate introduced, the purpose of which is to render emigration difficult The Berlin correspondent of the Times quotes the Nxlional Zeiluny os reflecting the views of the Russian Minister of Finance in maintaining that of all the countries Germany can await developments in the silver question with the utmost composure.The Na tional Zeitung holds that the increase of Germany\u2019s population and growth of her domestic commerce will easily absorb the remaining stock of 4,000,000 marks in silver thalers, and will thus relieve Germany of anxiety arising from fluctuations in the value of silver.\u201cGermany and England,\u201d it says in conclusion, \u201cthus stand side by side.They will not give (heir assent to any binding obligations.The conference will probably resolve that the choice of standards must he left to each State to decide according to circumstances.\u201d A correspondent at St.Petersburg gives an account of some armor plaie tests recently made in the presence of the Russian Minister of Marine and Grand Duke Alexander.The material tested consisted of one compound plaie made by Brown, of Sheffield, rhe two steel plates made by Uammel, of Sheffield, and one steel plate from the French St.diamond Co.\u2019s works.All the plates were ten inohes thick.The plate from the St.diamond works stood the test without being cracked.One of the Cammcl plates was slightly cracked and the others were shattered to pieces.Experiments were also made to ascertain the effects of heavy gun firing on the nervous system of animals.Rabbits, dogs and cats were utilized for this purpose.They were suspended in hags close to the line of fire and under the muzzle of the gun.The Times this morning quoting extensively from an American commission report on the persecution of the Jews in Russia, in an editorial article on the subject concludes :\u2014 \u201cThe question of the persecuted Jews seeking refuge in America concerns only the American nation, hut what concerns the whole civilized world and revolts humanity itself is the revelation afforded of a system of persecution sanctioned ami sustained by the Russian Government and the personal authority\u2019 of the Czar.\u201d The Standard's Constantinople correspondent says :\u2014\u201cA inehrated coachman, who yesterday was driving a carriage in w\u2019hicli rode Kemnn Bey, with two distinguished friends, brought about a shocking and fatal accident.The man persisted in attempting to drive tho carriage over the drawbridge connecting Stamboul and Galata, in spite of the Rlioiitcd warnings that the bridge w\u2019as open.The coach fell into the water and Keman Bey ami his friends were drowned and the coachman and a footman were rescued.\u201d Edinbukuh, Nov.25\u2014At a meeting hero of Scotch veterinary surgeons.Prof.Williams made an address in which he used strong language regarding the policy of the Agricultural Board in connection with the export cattle trade.He asserted that the Board smothered independent inquiry by destroying the lungs of all condemned cattle alleged to have «lied from pletiro-pncutnonia.The Board\u2019s advisers, he declared, were guilty either of gross errors or were abetting political fraud.The American Inspectors at Deptford, Dr.Wray and Dr.Ryder, submitted portions of the lungs of condemned animals that were lauded by the steamer \u201cBordeier,\u201d from Boston, to Dr.Nocard,

the success of his speech in the Reich- 8laK\u2019 .\t,.A Committee of ladies of Bucharest, headed by the Roumanian Premier\u2019s wife, recently started a fund in the Roumanian capital for the purpose of purchasing a wedding gift for Princess Marie of Edinburgh, who is betrothed to the Crown Prince of Roumania.Money was collected by agents with all the system of tax gatherers, and their methods caused a profound scandal, the papers openly denouncing the affair.Finally, Princess Marie wrote to the Committee asking that the money he applied to charitable purposes instead of a w edding gift.Bhusskus, Nov.25\u2014The International Monetary Conference resumed ils sitting this morning.Senator Win.B.Allison and Senator John P.Jones set forth the American suggestions, basing them on & general view their purpose, as there was not time now to build another boat for next year.William Poirier, aged 18, travelling from Collins Bay, to sec his parents here, jumped from the train os it

International Conference.A RUSSIAN REGIMENT DESERTS.GREAT BRITAIN.London, Nov.25\u2014Before the English d.-legates to the International Monetary Conference started for Brussels, the instruction i given by Sir William Vernon Harcourt, rimnccllor of the Exchequer, to Sir C.Freemantle, the deputy of the Minister, and Sir C.Rivers Wilson, w\u2019ere to expedite the deliberations and obtain continn-out sittings daily, with the exceptions of Saturdays and Sundays, so as to bring the Conference to an end within a few weeks.Sir Win Vernon Harconrt had learned that the American delegates contemplated such a full discussion, with time given to all sides to prepare arguments, statistics and facts, and for leiponding to their exponents, os would enable them to present exhaustive statements.This course, involving os it did an adjournment over Christmas, neither met with the approval of the English Minister nor certain of the English delegatos, who are strong single standard men.On ths eve of the day the delegates started for ffHnwels, the representative of the Associated Fre« learned from a high authority that if tba Conference was prolonged beyond three weeks, the leading English representatives would return to London, leaving tbe most imoortant members of the delegation to watch the proceedings.Private advices from Brussels snow that Fir C.Rivers Wilson opened the opposition to prolongeai debates as soon as the delegates began their iuter-cornmnnications.He objected to the proposal that President Levi made on the suggestion of the American delegates and supported by a majority of the conference, that an interval of a day for preparation be allowed between each sitting.Sir C.Rivers Wilson and his colleagues only finally assented to President Levi\u2019s proposal on finding that they stood alone.The incident has created theimpression among tbe members of the conference and Brussels officials that the British delegates want to break ap the meeting or cause it to fail to achieve any definite result.In the meantime they have received a decisive check.A great majority of the delegates evince every disposition to go thoroughly into the matter and to give themselves up to it until every plan promising international concert has been examined.Mr.Gladstone will return to Hawarden on Thursday.Though the Cabiuet does not resume its councils until January, the Ministers will occasionally meet.The industry of the Ministers is unprecedented.Autumn Cabinet Councils were never kbown to begin so early, meet so often and sit so long.Whatever the Cabinet may accomplish in the extent of its legislative proposals, the Liberals fear that the session of Parliament will see no important measure passèd.The House of Commons will présenta unique spectacle at theopeuing of the session.As the Irish parties have decided to sit with the Opposition, the anti-Ministerial side of the House will be crowded to overflowing, while the Ministerial benches will he sparsely filled.Some Conservatives rely confidently upon the moral effect of such a sight, hut wheu the Irish members troop io the Government lobby to vote with Mr.Gladstone, the effect will be the other way.M.Rchbat, the French Foreigu Minister, recently communicated with Lord Rosebery, fcfec British Foreign Secretary, requesting a statement of the position of the present Cabinet with reference to the rights of Francs in Newfoundland.Lord Roeebery, in bis response, announced that the present Government had adopted the policy of Lord Salisbury with reference to Newloundland.The latest developments in municipal socialism are found in the resolutions adopted at a conference of delegates from the London Vestries and District Boards, appointing a deputation to wait upon Mr.Henry Fowler, President of the Local Government Board, and to demand a Government measure fixing judicial rents for London workmen.The conference also instructed the delegates io ask the Government to find work for the i n-employed io public works at trades uuiou wages, or employment on lands not uudtr cultivation.The Archbishop of Canterbury approved^ the Church of England scheme for the formation of an old age pension fund.Lord Rosebery is included in the Royal dinner party to be given at Windsor Castle Palace to-night.There are renewed rumors of a probable alliance between Lord Rosebery and Princess Victoria.Additional w-eight is given the rumors because of the frequent appearance of the Foreign Office Secretary at gatherings of the Royal family.The Grand Duke and Grand Duchess Sergius will bid farewell to the Queen tomorrow and will proceed to Italy.The Queen has evinced much pleasure at the visit of her granddaughter and the Grand Duke.The Prince of Wales will terminate his visit to Lord Allington\u2019s country seat, Crit-chell, in Dorseteliire, to-morrow.His shooting in reserves yesterday resulted in 1,600 head of game, making for the three days 3,300 for the Prince.He will now proceed to Windsor.FRANCE.Paris, Nov.25\u2014Thirty persons were severely injured in a railway collision which occurred near Beauvais tc day.Four carriages were entirely demolished.RUSSIA.St.Petersbitro, Nov.25\u2014A great sensa tion was caused in this city to-day over the mutiny of the Novoscherk&s Regiment, which* has been garrisoned here for some time.The men of the regiment have long been complaining of tbe ill-treatment to which they have been subjected by their otfij cers.Being no longer able to endure sach treatment, they deserted in a boefy this morning and started for their homes.As soon as the fact of the mutiny became known, another regiment was sent in pursuit and the mutineers were overtaken about 12 miles out and brought hack to the city.It is expected that drastic punishment will be meted out to them, as the Russian military law is extremely severe in cases of mutiny.united States.Port Jefkerson, N.Y., Nov.25\u2014Thos.G.Hodgkins, of Settauket, died yesterday, aged 89.Mr.Hodgkins was a philanthropist and has given £20,000 to the Royal Institute, London, £200,000 to the Smithsonian Ic-stitute,

Paris has a guest in her midst in the person of Sir Charles Tupper, High Cora missioner for Canada in London, whoso presence hero should not be overlooked We are glad to welcome this distinguished statesman, who conducted so ably and well the delicate and thankless negotiations entered into with the Colonial Office by the Prime Minister of Montreal {sic) Macdonald and Abbott in opposition to the application of the Bait Bid ; to the Treaty of Commerce with the United States, the work of Sir William White way, Prime Minister of Newfoundland to the additional duties which the same Sir William Whiteway placed upon Canadian products, and other hostile measures in spirea by that egotism of Newfoundland t he irreconcileable character of which we are familiar with, witness the latest Yellow Book.But we wuh above all things that the mission entrusted to the High Commissioner to have a successful issue, and that ho will not quit our capital without having completely accora plished his task.Sir Charles Tupper has come to Paris as a Minister plenipotentiary of Her Britannic Majesty, specially accredited to the Government of the Republic conjointly with the British Ambassador, the Maiquis of Duffenn and Ava, with full powers to negotiate and conclude a commercial treaty between France and the Dominion of Canada, which he represents.Our readers kno w t he reasons for the strong opposition among the majority of the two Chambers against the system of commercial treaties.In the present case there is however nothing that can give rise to the slightest objection, Canada offers us a treaty containing notable advantages in favour of French products, and asks in return only one thing, the benefit of our minimum tariff.Its basis is entirely in conformity wi'h the spirit, and the letter of the new Customs tariff voted by Parliament at the commencement of the present year.This commercial treaty should be made law, no opposition of any kind whatsoever being possible ; on the other band there are numerous reasons to be adduced in support of its adoption, which we propose to state briefly.First of all for reasons of equity we have in fact just signed a new arrangement with the United States to whom wa have granted the minimum tariff on a number of articles instead of the maximum, on the condition which has l>een agreed to in Washington, of their removing entirely the duties on sugar, tea, coffee, and hides, and we give this to a nation which has striven against us quite recently as an economic foe, with that severity which the McKinley Bill sufficiently indicates.While the great American Republic was making war upon us, with prohibitory tariffs, what was the attitude that Canada assumed towards our exports 1 It admitted free of duly sugar, tea, coffee, hides, and it levied much lower duties upon tobacco than those imposed by its neighbours to the South.In all the ports of the Dominion our wines, nur spirits, and our liquors entered freely after payment of duties averagii\u2019g from 15 to 20 per cent lower than those raised in the ports of the Union.The latter moreover excludes vigorously all our wines which are above 14 (sic) of alcoholic strength.The same difference exists in the Customs duties\u2014on our sparkling wines, 50 per cent heavier in New York than in Quebec\u2014on nur woollens, the duty in Canada is 22i to 27^ percent ad valorem according to quality, in the United States 35 to 45 centimes specific duty per square yard, and in addition 40 to 50 per cent ad valorem\u2014ou our fringes, braids, tassels, cords, etc., 30 per cent ad valorem in Canada, 3 francs per pound specific duty and 60 per cent ad valorem in the United States\u2014artificial flowers, one of the most important Parisian industries, are charged 25 per cent ad valorem in Canada,and 50 per cent in the States\u2014on our laces and lace goods Canada imposes a duty of 30 per cent ad valorem, and the States 3 francs per pound and 60 per cent ad valorem\u2014 on toys and doll-*, another important branch of Parisian industry, Canada 35 per cent ad valorem, the United States 36 to 60 per cent ad valorem, etc., etc.W e might continue this enumeration at length, but the foregoing appears tous sufficient to prove that we shall be only doing Canada proper justice if we give her the advantages we have given to our economic adversary on tho other side of the Atlantic.We now come to the reasons dictated by self-interest.Canada is a country with a grest future ; the prosperity it is enjoying at present is a guarantee of what it will he when the population has reached a normal development ; when the fertile wheat lands of the North-West, tho rivals of those of tho valley of the Mississippi and of the basin of the great lakes, have once been fairly turned to account, thanks to the civilizing agency of the Canadian Pacific Railway.It is therefore of the greatest imi>ort-ance to us to open up this huge market, to prevent the population of Canada becoming exclusively tho customers of tho United States, and to do velope the commercial relations which are already progressing favourably.As matter of fact tho \u201cbalance of trade\u201d according to the statistics of Montreal (sic) our exportation to Canada is ten times larger than Canada\u2019s exportation to us.In 1889-90 importation of French goods into Canada was $2,616,000, and Canadian exports only 8278,000.It is clear then that we must do what we can to secure as large a share of the 130 millions of dollars which represent the total importation by the valley of the St.Lawrence.Tho reasons based on sentiment remain to be dealt with, and which are by no means the least important.We cannot forgot the two millions of French Canadians who are of our race and our blood, who speak our tongue, who have ever preserved a warm affection for the mother country, and who defend so courageously the influences of French customs, and French ideas on the American continent.We cannot treat them with less regard than the Anglo-Saxons of the United States, nor weaken our commercial relations with the emigrants from France or Quebec, who are colonizing and peopling Manitoba, and the basins of the Saskatchewan and Ottawa rivers.To all these foregoing reasons we have to add that of gratitude, for we must recognize the Francophile initiative recently taken by the Federal Government of Canada.In renewing the subventions to the Atlantic line of fast steamers, the Cabinet of Montreal (sic) laid down the condition, as is known, that a French port must he tho terminus of the subsidized line, and it has pledged itself to an annual subsidy of 3,760,000 francs (£160,000) to a company who will establish the most rapid service of steamers between France and the St Lawrence.This initiative has a signifie ance the importance of which will startle everybody.It is from these several mo tives that we shall aid with all our power the action of Sir Charles Tapper.The treaty he proposes is a fair one, and an advantageous one ; it is in addition in con formity with the law.Nothing ought in consequence to stand in the way of its being concluded.We hope therefore that a new Franoo-Canadian commercial con vention will in a short time draw more closely together the bonds which unite the mother country to its old colony, and the French people on both shores of the Atlantic.Felix Leseub.The Provincial Taxes.Hon.Mr.De Boucherville's Reply to tlie Montreal Merchants.LV ABLE AND TEMPERATE DOCUMENT.The Salvation Army.(To the Editor of the Mominq Chronicle.)

opportunity of meeting you and hearing the remarks which you had to make, as well in your own name as in the name of those who delegated you to us.The right to make any representation or suggest iou to those who govern is inherent to the British constitution and, far from having any fear of the remarks which you had to make to us, we wished to anticipate your desires, and to come into your midst, so os to hear you am! endeavor to satisfy you.It is impossible for us to forget that this great and prosperous city of Montreal has specially given us a glorious and unanimous testimony of its confidence on the 8th of March last.To tell you that we recall this with feelings of pleasure and gratitude is to pr >vo to you, I believe, that we are disposed lo do our utmost for you within the limits of our duty, ami of the terrible responsibility devolving upon us.Gentlemen, we inherited a very unwieldy estate when wc assumed the reins of power, and the task we had before us appeared a very ungrateful one.THE GOVERNMENT\u2019S DUTY.Allow me to tell you that we counted on the help and on the public spirit of our people, w hen we decided not to recoil before tho painful duty of putting our financial condition in order.I know that I am writing to business men, and I am convinced that they will readily understand me, w\u2019hen I tell them that the present administration would not remain in power one minute longer, if it was not firmly resolved to restore an equilibrium between receipts and expenditure.We were firm in the face of an enormous de ficit.We had to make it up.If we allowed it to accumulate any more we would consider ourselves unworthy of the confidence you have bestowed on us.The Province was reduced to the necessity of living upon expedients, on ruinous loans, and our fair name had become a vain word o i the money mar kets.The last temporary loan of $1,500,000 contracted by the late Government had been effected at the rate of 6 per cent., and, out of the authorized loan of ten millions, it had been scarcely possible to obtain fourmillions in Europe at a rate of interest, which, taking everything into account, would amount to more than 6 per cent.This position had become intolerable, and was leading us straight to a financial cataclysm, which any school boy could foresee and calculate.THE WAY OUT OF THE DIFFICULTY.To meet this situation there were two ways possible : to practice economy and create new sources of revenue.Now, these two means must be combined, for either of them applied alone, would not be of any efficacy We set to work courageously, and for tho first year we have effected reductions amount ing to a considerable sum.We hope to con tinue in this course, and do more next session than we did in the last ; but wo did not wish to go too rapidly at first because we had to exercise prudence in the matter if we did not wish to upset everything.Besides this we had to create additional revenues.I believe that everybody will admit this without hesitation.The result of this all is that our legislation of last session differs from your views only as to the means to he taken to arrive at the proposed aim We hail but little time before us, and we hail to prove at once that we were decided to ask for sacrifices at the hands of the public if we wished to regain confidence on the money market.Now we have so far succeeded that we have been enabled to meet the most pres siug amongst the enormous obligations which our predecessors had bequeathed to us, by obtaining the money we needed for that purpose, at rates of interest much lower than those of the last financial operations under the late regime.Now, you are of opinion that certain classes of the population are called on to do more thait their share, may lie that our work, in this respect, is not perfect.Human works seldom are, and we nave not the presumption to believe that this one was so.\t.WILL REMEMBER THE DELEGATION.We are, therefore, happy to hear any sng gestion made to us, and you may rest assured that in our further deliberations the reasons you have given will receive the consideration and study which they deserve, not only for the sake of their intrinsic value, but also lie cause they have been furnished to us by in telligent citizens, for whom we entertain great deal of respect and consideration.Y ou will readily understand that it is impossible for us to give you an immediate answer on all the points you have mentioned.We will look into the whole matter, as public men anxious to do their duty, should, and we will try to correct as far as possible for the years to come the defects that may occur in the lost legislation.To do this we hav many things to take into account.We will make it our duty to consult seriously the members of the House, and it will necessarily follow that while we have a desire to meet your views as much as possible, we must also take note of theirs.We will then lay before the Legislature the result of our deliberations and ask the country to help us to continue our work of restoration and reparatiou.You can rely upon us when we tell you that we will take into serious consideration, in any future legislation, the remarks which you have made to us.THE PRESENT POSITION.I wish to draw your attention, as well as that of the public, to certain points which to us seem to be important.A great many pco- Sle have, up to this, fulfilled towards the overnipent the obligations imposed oq them, We counted on these revenues, and they are indispensable to us.This is enough to give you to understand that the requirements of the public service will not allow us to refund what has been paid.And it results, as a con sequence of this, that whatever may be the extent of the changes which the expression of your views and of your desires may bring about, it is, so to speak, impossible for us to waive the collection of what is due for the current year.If we did otherwise we would commitagreatinjqstice towards those who have paid until now, and they woqld have a right to heap on us reproaches which wo do not wish to deserve.MORE REDUCTIONS IN EXPENSES, It has been stated somewhere 'that there were certain savings that we might make and did not.As explained above, wo propose to make more considerable reductions in the budget, whatever the recriminations it may çapse, but we wish to act with prudence and discernment.Therp a,re, bo^'ever, certain pretended savings which are easily made on paper, but which are utterly impossible in Erâctice.For instance, the abolition of the .egislative Council is mentioned.Now, without discussing the question from other points of view of extreme importange, you know', as well as I do, that it is impossible to abolish the Legislative Council without the consent of the Council itself, and that any measure passed by tho Legislative Assembly in this direction would be a dead letter if the Council did not concur in it.The Council is opposed to its own abolition, and none of its members, no matter of what party he may belong, has thought of proposing it.We oan do nothing legal or valid without the concurrence of the Council.We shall make every possible and practicable reduction, and wo sincerely hope to give complete satisfaction on this point to those who have not made up their minds to find fault with us at any rate.AN EXTENSION OF TIME.To sum up, the Government does not be-lieve that it is possible under the circumstances to suspend for this year the collection of what is now due.Your objections will be carefully noted and will receive full and entire consideration for the future.And the alterations which wc w ill make in our legislation at the next session will avail for all alike, for those who have already paid and for those who will pay.We appeal to your patriotism and public spirit, and we are confident that you will admit that our decision is the only possible one under the circumstances, and has been dictated to us by a painful but strict sense of duty.In order to facilitate the payment of what is now due for the current year, we will give instructions to extend the delays already given until the 5th of December.We trust that at the next session we will succeed to put everything in such a shape that for the following years you will feel that your position is more satisfactory.I have tho honor to be, Your most obedient servant, C.B.de Bouciierviixk, Prime Minister.I niler a New Same.The Liberté is to be the name of the new journal which the present editors of

will breathe a sigh of relief.Rumors concerning his position and intentions recur at intervals throughout the entire year.Just now he is again subject to speculation, rumor, denial, assertion and counter asserrion over the question whether he is to be Lieutenant-Governor of Quebec or not.I met him this afternoon on Parliament Hill on his way to a Cabinet Council and asked him if he would confirm the report which was current, yestcr day, in Montreal, that he had been appointed Lieutenant-Governor of Quebec.He replied that it was not true, ami added : \u201cThere nothing in it now,\u201d with an emphasis on the \u201cnow.\u201d The hon.gentleman i» looking very ill, in fact I have never seen him looking so bad, and it is very evident that his health will not stand the strain involved in attend ance on the House of Commons.Some weeks ago in conversation with Mr.Chapleau on the same subject ho dwelt on the fact that the duties at Spencer Wood would not make such a drain on his physical forces as his posi tiou in the Cabinet here, responsible to Par liament for one of the departments of Uov eminent.It is probable he had at that time made up his mind to retire to the Viceregal residence at Quebec.There is now no doubt about it.It is quite settled that Mr.Chapleau becomes Lieutenant-Governor.It is likely that the formal Order-in-Council was passed nt this afternoon's meeting of the Cabinet though its promulgation may be delayed.SOME CONJECTURES.Mr.Bowell will probably resume charge at the Customs Department, but who Mr.Cha pleau\u2019s successor in the Cabinet will be is a matter of conjecture.The name of Mr.I).Girouard, Q C., member for Jacques Cartier, has been connected with a Cabinet position for some years.He holds a respectable position in the party but has no following it\\ the House.The possession of patronage would, however, reiqeily that in a little while.The return of Mr- Chapleau to provincial politics will undoubtedly be the cause of change in the local ministry.He has not been on speaking terms with Premier De Boucherville nor Mr.Beaubien, the Minister of Agriculture, for years, and it is understood that he is not on good terms

a good bouse last night at the Jacques Cartier « P iper as though so far he haa overlooked his duty of discovering, capturing and punishing some sor(, of sedition within.Sure enough it was there.He scanned the editorial page for & moment, smashed the paper together With his knuckly hands, dropped it upon the \u2019bus floor, and, pawing it back beneftth his feet, for some time gave it a nervous kind of pounding which plainly told Am sentiments for the balderdash he had discovered.Then he fell to chewing again with his eyes quite closed, and shortly awoke with a start, to lunge towards the door and soundly berate the conductor for carrying him past his destination.I could not hear all of this scold-iug ; but it brought traffic on the Strand to a standstill; and then the scraggy, hairy, tnmblcd üp, loose-jointed old man disappeared among the cabs and \u2019busses, a tangible, irascible Altercation with a Scotch dialect, prompting from drivers as he passed the choisest blackguard quips and quirks that roll from London drivers\u2019 ready tongues.THE INCIDENT LEFT Â S»hL& on nearly éverÿ in the omnibus.A pleasaiU -fftCed man sitting beside me, noticing my look of inquiry and

a student Of Carlyle\u2014one of the most difficult tasks of my life ; and, from much reading after the sturdy old barrator in philoso phy and religion, many pilgrimages to his birth and burial place, up there in dreary Ecclefechan, and to other British localities which his strange persomtfiU And genius made something like Shrines, I have come to love his memory, And especially to have an affection for the place where for half a life time he struggled, contended, railed, assaulted, defended, suffered and repented in his humble and imperial, niggardly And uoole career.YltAT PLACE IS CHELSEA.It is London now.You cannot find a break in all the great masses of solid structures from the densest part of the borough, out tb old Chelsea and for many mdeS bëÿond.Yet tho Chelsea.regiftn is At ill most charmingly distinct.You know insensibly when you Come to it.You feel, without being told, that you have crossed its boundaries on leaving it.Without participating in its memories, knowing none of its history, if you were set down withiu it, its lovely, leafy, somnolent air has the very spirit And hush qf lingering noble presences.You dAlly and idle upon its streets as if wooed by the unconscious spell of memory, as if laggard from pleasant companionship, as if held by the gentle band of Reminiscence.In the very heart of this pleasantest of all London outer districts, Thomas aud Jane Welsh Carlyle literally battled along together, from the 10th day of October, 1834, until Mrs.Carlyle\u2019s sad and strange death In her brougham in Hyde Dark, in April, 1866.The lonely old soul that was left remained, rather than lived, in the same house to the end, in 1881.And I sOmehdw believe that the 47 years' staying of the sage of Ecclefe-ehan in No.3 Great Cheyne Row has thrown mdre of a poetic glamor over old Chelsea than all the other famous and great who hav« çortie and tarried and gone.MATERIALLY, sift THOMAS MORE ORIGINALLY MADE CHELSEA.Carlyle rounds out its fame.Vast fields of history and romance lie between.This \u201cpore house in Chelchith,\u201d as the ancieflt TOoordk speak of the home of 8it^ Thoinafi More, was not so humble an habitation after all.It had Outliving she inherited the beautiful grounds once known as \u201cChelsea Farm.\u201d Granitvillc Penn, once Lord of the 8toke Poges Manor, where Gray lived and wrote the \u201cPdegy,\u201d fell heir to the property and sold it to the Cremoruo Garden Corporation.Wicked enough it grew in time.Decorous associations retrieved it, and an innocent nursery garden now veils its unhallowed site and memories.At least three ancient taverns in the neighborhood have peculiar old-time interest.Two, one at the western and the other at the eastern edge of the purinlt, are direbtly associated with Nell G wynne.That to the west, in which 1 found a hoble sort of publican, and, oddly enough, a Cousin of that rampant little nuglliüt whose skill rtf tongUe has never been defeated, Charley Mitchell, was built by Charles It.as a home for his favorite.It was from the windows of this hoase, now a resort of Phclsrta pensioners, that Nell\u2019s eyes looked in upon the then fine meadows of King James\u2019 College, in her dream, when she saw the beautiful paluee ri«c with its thousand chambers out of which \u201cdivers mapy old aim worn out soldier men\u201d came amt cried, \u201cGod bless King Charles !\" which led to the merciful FOUNDING OF THE SPLENDID HOSPITAL.The other associated with the fame of the pretty orange-girl is a sedate
