the Rev.James Spurgeon, brother of the late Charles Spurgeon, and the Rev.Thomaa Spurgeon, son of the late Charles Spurgeoa.The résignai ion of the Rev.Jamea Spurgeon from hie temporary pastor.i le was accept'd and the meeting passed, by a majority of 2 -000, a resolution that the Rev.i'hoin ¦ Spurgeon be invited to officiate in the pulpit for one year, with a view toward becomi: g the permanent pastor of tho congreg&tiou.The Rev.Thomaa Spurgeon will begin his duties at once.FRANCE.Paris, March 29\u2014The Chamber of Deputies to-day voted an annual pension of 6,000 francs to the widow of Ernest Renen.M.Ribot, the Prime Minister, tc day notified M.Andrieux that his offer to arr Arton has been accepted and that M.Clement, an experienced officer, had been detailed to assist him in capturing Arton.Siuce the scandal was made public Arton has been reported to have been in many European Capitals and smaller towns, where he is said to have spent money lavishly and with no apparent fear of his mode of life attracting attention to him and- thus leading to his arrest.His whereabouts at present is not a matter of public knowledge.GERMANY.Berlin, March 29\u2014The mining town , is another worthy son of the Dominion.But ho has preferred to wait, and we may eay here, that no more popular appointment to a distinguished Order could be made, than that of our late Lieutenant-Governor, whose whole public career has been patriotic, useful and honorable.But the Queen has decided to reward for faithful service to her Colonial Empire, a certain number of men who are not in the ranks of her statesmen.The first among these is Doctor Sandford Fleming, already a C.M.G., an ex-President of the Royal S'iciety of Canada, a scientist of the first order of merit, and the Engineer of the Intercolonial Railway, and part of the Canadian Pacific Railway.Dr.Fleming is the author of many monographs of great historic, scientific and economic value.He is the originator of the 24 o\u2019clock system of time reckoning for railways, and he is also a gentleman of fine literary taste.His advance in the Order of St.Michael and St.George will be appreciated by Canadians everywhere.Dr.Powell, of Ottawa, is named as one of the new Knights, and this is also a recognition of scientific achievement in Canada.Dr.Powell attended Sir John A.Macdonald during his last illness, as our great statesman\u2019s principal physician.Chief Justice Strong, of the Supreme Court, Ottawa, naturally drops into th^ ranks of Bachelor Knighthood, by virtue of his high office, his predecessors, Sir William Buell Richards and Sir William Johnstone Ritchie, haring held that honor.Mr.Christopher Robinson, Q.C., a lawyer of great repute in Ontario, is a so set down for a K.C.M.G., ana Gen.Herbert, as Commander-in-Chief of our Militia, is, of course, entitled to have his breast decorated by the insignia of an Order of Knighthood.Altogether the list is a most satisfactory one, and Canada will have no reason to complain this year that her leading men have been overlooked.Coast Balllalrge.This is the New Titi-e of tue City Attorney.Mr.L.G.Baillairge, Q C., for many years City Attorney,and well known for his numerous benefactions to religious ami charitable institutions, has been created a Roman Count by the Pope.\t, _\t, On the sacerdotal jubilee of Cardinal Taschereau, Mr.Baillarge presented His Eminence with the sum of $16,000.The news of this princely gift and of the many good works performed by Mr.Baillairge, being brought to the Pope by the Archbishop of Cyrene, Mgr.Begin, His Holiness was pleased to recoguizo the merits of our eminent Fellow-citizen.\t.\t.\t\u201e The Holy See has conferred on Mr.L.R.Couture the tille of Commander of St.Sylvestre.This is one of the highest orders into which a stranger is admitted.Canada has had only two Commanders, Hon.L.H.Lafontaine and Hon.Judge Berthelot.This honor has been conferred on Mr.Couture in recognition of the services he has rendered to the Roman Catholic institutions in Levis, among which is his princely gift of that fine edifice now in course of erection, the Levis ( ol.ege chapel, which will cost in the neighborhood of $60,000.Flogs were yesterday flying from all the public buildings at Levis in honor of the new Commander.On Sunday next, the citizens will present Mr.Couture with an address and he has the best wishes of everybody for long life and prosperity.OPINIONS OF THE PEOPLE.(To the Editor of the Morniutf Chronicle.) Sir,\u2014The City Police arc apparently determined to »how their thorough inefficiency.In their yearly report, published soma time back, there were three arrests for fast driving.Since then I have seen hundreds of cases of furious driving, in the most public streets, and that in the greater part by vehicles be longing to well known citizens, to well known carters and to well known shop-keepers.As to the amount of carters who drive with no numbers, or with only onj, it would be h&rd to tell.A few days past 1 was nearly run over by a carter.I would have had him ar rested, had he only had a number on the back of his sleigh.While on the subject: there is a by-law forbidding milkmm from carrying garbage with their milk ; yet this dangerous habit is going on the same as ever.The fact is that six good detectives, in plain clothes, would be far more useful than all the City Police Force, rolled into one.Sincerely yours, Stop her, Joe.Quebec, March 29, 1893.labored in attemptiugcommercial negotiations with both France and Spain owing to the fact that, as he was simply a commissioner for Canada, all official representation» had to be made indirectly through the British officials.Canada had no facilities for coming face to face officially with the foreign governments with whom she wished to deal.Sir Charles set to work to remedy this state of things, with the result that, in the cose of Spain, \u201cfor the first time in the history of the world Canada, a colony, was given the right to send her own plenipotentiary to conduct negotiations on her own behalf.\u201d Through a variety of circumstances no negotiations have yet actually taken place with Spain, though the prospect now has considerably improved, and there is\u2014or was possibility that a start would be very shortly made.Then came the case of a commercial arrangement with France.The high commissioner was appointed joint plenipotentiary with the British ambassador, and tho treaty drawn up was the first actually negotiated by a representative of any of the colonies acting as the specially appointed plenipotentiary of his country side by side with a British plenipotentiary.It is specially unfortunate, Sir Charles holds, that a treaty arranged under such conditions should be thrown overboard by the Government which had authorized him to sign It.Dress Goods, Costumes, Trimmings, Mantle Capes, Jackets, Mantle Cloths, &c., &c.We have now received all our Spring Shapes in Bentlemen\u2019e Hats Fashionable Tailoring !

Medical Discovery will cure it, if taken in time and given a fair trial.This world-renowned remedy will not make new lungs, but it will restore diseased ones to a healthy state when other means have failed.Thousands gratefully testify to this.It is the most potent tonic, or strength restorer, alterative, or blood-cleanser, and nutritive, or flesh-builder, known ta medical science.For Weak Lungs,

watchman at Ocean V iew, Va., a sinnmer resort near the mouth of Chesapeake Bay, this afternoon picked up on the beach at that place a champagne bottle with several corks tied about its neck and with a letter enclosed, giving alleged inform ation of the sinking of the White Star Line steamer \u201cNaronic.\u201d Tho letter was as follows : \u201c3 10a.m., Feb.19, ss \u201cNaronic.\u201d White Star

watch, ami the great ship is deck level with the sea.^ Report to the agents at Broadway, New York, M.Kersey & Co.Good-bye.John Olsen, cattle man.\u201d a hostile feeling.But other ciruumstancos, Sir Charles also contends, make this action at Ottawa still more regrettable.French feeling is distinctly hostile to England, and there was at the outset no disposition to grant any special concessions to any part of the British empire.As the result, however, of six weeks work in Paris, Sir Charles claims that he was able to bring about a much more friendly attitude towards Canada and to persuade the French Gevernment and the French public that mutual benefit would accrue from such a commercial arrangement as be proposed.This good feeling, he considers, may bo scriouly endangered by tho policy of the Dominion Ministry.Moreover, France is to provide the president of the tribunal by which the Behring Sea arbitration is to be carried on, and at this juncture nothing oould be more foolish than to injure French susceptibilities.On all these points Sir Charles dwelt at length and with characteristic emphasis.To him personally, 'so far aa his feelings were concerned, he declared the Government\u2019s action was relatively unimportant.But to Canada the matter was one of great moment and, in his judgment, Mr.Foster\u2019s statement was most unwise.As to the treaty itself, Sir Charles contends that it secures for Canada far greater advantages than the United States secured by the treaty negotiated by Mr.Whitelaw Reid, and this, too, in return for concessions much smaller than those given by the United States.In the case of the States, France was allowed the free import of goods to the value of 10,000,000 francs, and the States got in return the minimum French tariff for United States timber, pre« served meat, hops and some fruits.In the case of Canada, France was given the free import of goods to the value only of 1,500,000 francs and a reduction of duty, ad valorem, on high wines, on sparkling wines, Castile soap and nuts.In return Canada got the minimum French tariff for timber, preserved meat and fruits\u2014\u201call the goods similarly dealt with in the case of the United States,\u201d said Sir Charles Tupper, \u201cexcept hops, which I did not ask for and which we do not want, and a long list of other articles in addition.\u201d RATIFY OR RESIGN.\u201cAs to the modifications in the draft which was approved at Ottawa?\u201d I asked.\u2018We have bur, only two modifications in tho draft,\u201d Sir Charles replied, \u201cand these are both jo favor of Canada.One in view of the growing use of wood pavements in France admitted Canadian deal ends on the minimum tariff, and the other extended the provisions of the treaty to Algiers and the French colonies.\u201d What, then, is the position of the Government, Sir Charles, in regard to the treaty can they throw it aside altogether ?\u201d \u201cIt is their treaty just as much as the Washington treaty was the treaty of the Government of the day.They are bound to carry it through or resign.I sent it to them immediately after it was signed, on February 6, and from that day till the cable arrived on Wednesday I had not received the slightest intimation of their disapproval of it.ft was negotiated in accordance with their instructions, and it is their duty to ask the House of Commons to ratify it.If I did not carry out their instructions it was incumbent on them to take action to remove me from the office I held under them.It was because of the in jury which I consider their policy, if not reversed, must inflict on Canada that though I am their subordinate I took the strong and unusual course of publishing on the receipt of Reuter\u2019s telegram a statement in correction of the remarks alleged to have been made by Mr.Foster.SALE G.Ê.REMEW & CO., The general meeting of this Association will be held at the office of 35 4 37 BUADK STREET, UPPER TOWN

chilled crust, ami a magazine article in support of such a theory has recently attracted much attention.A very largo part of the natural philosophers consider it most probable that the rocks at and near the surface of the globe would expand in melting.If the caith were thus constituted a time would come when the solid crust would crack from its own weight, or from moderate internal disturbance ; and then block after block of the crust, region after region of the world we know and love so well, would plunge slowly and heavily to meet the rising, molten flood, while whirlwinds of scalding steam would shroud Krishing humanity.It would require a into to do justice to the tragic side of this theme.A hard-hearted physicist would simply remark that a crust of such dimensions resting on a fluid of inferior deusity is in unstable equilibrium ; the rest being an evident consequence.Statements such as this are commonly considered as extremely uninteresting ; but the Dantesque view of the subject has been indicated sufficiently to show that the earth\u2019s interior is within the sphere of human interest.Aside from ignoble fears, there seems scarcely any topic better suited to excite a legitimate intellectual interest among men than this most fundamental question concerning that little planet, our world.Is it a molten globe with a pellicle of cool dry land, or is it really terra

that there is no fear whatever for the crinoline.The new spring mantles are quite short and verj\u2019 full, the tidiness being arranged in round pleats resembling the flutes of an organ.Bla-k silk and black s&tin arc favorite materials for these.Mollifications of the Russian blouse are still often seen on well-dressed women.The newest jackets have quite short basques, a total change back again to the styles of three years ago.It is the better, however, for the thrifty-minded than a change to long ones, for it is a simple matter to cut the long ones short, whereas it is a most difficult business to add to the length.Empire mantles in lace depending from a yoke of black velvet trimmed with jet are prepared for wear when balmy breezes replace the sharp, cold winds of winter.One of these was the yoke and high collar in pansy-purple velvet, the rest being in pleated Chantilly lace, with long Empire lappets of lace fringed with jet hanging down from either side of the bodice in front.Another has the shoulder part in biscuit-silk, covered with a mass of rich embroidery in beads of almost every shade of brown, gold, bronze, primrose, and biscuit-color.The lace is black, of course, and falls sheer from the bust to the edge of the dress beneath, which fits to tho^ long-waisted figure as accurately as if the Empire style had never been invented.These anomalies are thought nothing of now, any more than they are regarded in the furnishing of our houses, where Greek vases look down on Persian carpets and Chippendale tables rest on Turkish rugs, while Japanese bamboo work holds Chinese gods and^ Indian chessmen.The \u201cdress-as-you-please\u201d is the only league at all likely to be successful at the*present moment.kind, containing gooda,mcrcliandize.provisions, or
