determined to draw him in triumph to his homo.Upon arrival at St.Ann's Hall two addresses were presented to the rev.gentleman, one on behalf of the parishioners and another on behalf of the Shamrock Lacrosse Club, which also presented him with a goldheaded cane, In his reply, the rev.Brother described the warm reception he had met with all over Ireland.The reports of murder and other agrarian crimes said to be rampart there must not be believed.The farmers were happy and contented, but still looked fo rward to the time when their long struggle for liberty would be ended.He assured those

of this debauch of young fellows.\u201c What makis the evil worse is that all of them are near soma saloon, and when they win they drink, becatiie their money was easily come by.When they lose they drink, because they are chagrine»! at their losses.Then, when they get home, all the I>olitene*s disappears and the fuddled fellow gives wife and children the worst of it.That m the meanest feature in the miserable busi-ness, but the hardest of all h that the money that should go for children's comforts goes over the bar room counter.\" The gentleman who gave the information says that there is some

OrrAWA, August 21, AlthouRh Sir Ricliârd (Jii twrixlit wan abuaed for Advising, in hi« Torouto aiieccb, tho diacui ¦iou of independence, annexation or any other kchen.o vital to the intereeta of a free people, even hi* political opponenta now acknowledge by their practice that Sir Richard'* wai a rea \u2022enable proposition.An effort i* being made to \u2022how that Mr.Hlake advocated Itni>eriai fedora tion in hi* Aurora speech, but a perusal of the text justifie* no such conclusion.Mr, Ulake announce ) then, as Mr.Laurier did at Oakville on Monday, that our present political status cannot long continue, and it was for us to con aider, Mr Hlake said, whether we were to take part in the alfaira of the Kmpire or continue to be governed by men in whose election to o continuance in oftico we had no voice.He in atanced the ceding >f our canals to a foreign power, Canada\u2019s opinion not being asked.Our relations to the Kmpire was a proper subject for discussion.This was the pith aud point of hi< reference to Imperial federation at Aurora, and the wonder is that public writers will persist in saving that Mr, filake declared in favor of the scheme.UNION WITH THC UNITED STATKM.No one is at liberty to object to the discussion of Canada's future.Kurope for the Kuropeans and America for the Americans seems to be the tendency of the age.Mr.Chamberlain told us, seated in the official residence of the (/ueen\u2019s Viceroy at Ottawa, that Kuglaud would not take the held in behalf of Canada against the United States.He voiced the opinion of the British democracy.John Bright asserted in his place in Parliament that there is no statesman in Kugland who will venture to bring about the shedding of one drop of blood\u201d in defence of British North America.Tnat same leader cherished the hope that \" the whole of that vast continent in America might become one great confederation of States not mixing itself up with the entanglements of Europe, without a custom house inside through the whole length aud breadth of the territory.\u2019\u2019 This is annexation, and if Mr.Bright was a Canadian statesman he would be torn to pieces for bis sentiments.As it is, when Mr.Bright is sick Her Majesty hersolf enquires after him.In 1H70 Mr.Gladstone viewed the possible separation of Canada from the Empire, referring to the United States as a country \"of immense hpman energy extending itself continuously over that vast contiuent.\" This, too, was annexation.Mr.Lowe, as he was then, said in Parliament: \"It is our duty to represent to Canada that if after well weighed consideration she thinks it more to her interest to join the great American Republic itself, it is the duty of Canada to deliberate for her own interest and happiness,\u2019' Mr.Ellis, of St.John, in bis recent utterances only echoed Mr.Lowe\u2019s words.Lord Russell, when in public life, said : \"If tho North American colonies showed an anxiety to amalgamate with the United States I do not think it would be wise to resist that desire.\u201d The Hon.Joseph Howe, the Nova Scotia statesman, when in England said he heard a noble Marquis say that we \"mightannex ourselves to the United States if we pleased,\" and added, \"The Marquis made the statement and not a man rose to contradict him,\" If the North American confederaticn joins the older federation of the United States English statesmen may not be surprised and perhaps no one need be sorry,\" spoke the Examiner in reviewing the San Juan award.These are some of the utterances of leading public opinion in England looking to a union between Canada and the United States.There have been many voices outspoken for THE INDBI INDJCNCR OP CANADA.As early as 182N tho Colonial Secretary thought \" the tune had come for the separation of Canada Iron, tho mother country, and her assumption of an independent state.\" At the same time Lord Howick said, \" We ought to prepare for colonial separation, not by fortifying the Canadas, but by preparing them to become independent.\" The Karl of Kllenborongh in ISôl said in the House of Lords, \"I hope the government will communicate with the North American colonies with a view to separation.\u201d This was thu same occasion when Lord Brougham said, \"I am one of those who desire a separation of Canada from tho mother country,\" an opinion shared by Lords Ashburton and S».Vincent.In 18t54 Lord Derby, whore authority our present Governor General will acknowledge, said, \"We know that these countries must before long be independent states.\" Mr.Gladstone, in advocating the separation of these colonies from the empire, said it was no new policy ; \" persons of author ity of every shade of politics have adopted it.\u201d In Mr.Gladstone\u2019s view they looked U|»on confederation as a means of getting rid of thn heavy charge involved in the defence of Canada, In tho House of Lords, in 1870, Lord Grey said that the principles laid down by successive colonial secretaries must necessarily lead to a dissolution of our colonial empire.\u201d After Lord Mnck remrned from the discharge of his duties as Governor-General of Canada,he said in the House of Ijords that Canada \" should be taught to look forward to independence.Tho true mission of Canada is to proclaim its inde iiendecce.\u201d Sir George Campbell said : \"I believe Canada to be a bu-den and a risk to us.' The Right Hon.W.K.Forster favored imperial f*,deration1 but ho recognized \" a common belief that some day the colonial must become independent.\" Lord Derby, in 187,i, v deplored that no workable plan bail been de-\\ vised for a closer Imperial connection The /scheme of Colonial representation in the Imperial Parliament was pronounced by Mr.Gladstone as \"altogether visionary.\u201d \"We can not, ho raid, \"overlook the countless miles of ocean rolling between them and us.\" HOME CANAPIAN VIEWS.At Kamia, in 1870, Hon.Alexander Mac-kec/ieea d :\t\" Wo have now assumed the pro- portions of a nation.'\u2019 Hon.Edward Hlake, in a speech in 1877, said : \"The present form of connection is not deatined b> be perpetual.My opinion i* that tho day must come when wo shall cease to be dependent.\" At Oakville, on the 13th mst., Sir Richard Cartwright said: \u201c England isfu ore of an Asiastic than a Euro-pean power,\" his object being to show that our future cannot be bound up with England.Again Mr.Blake, at Bowman ville, in 1882, said :\t\" I wish to see a Canadian national spirit spread through the Dominion.\" lu 1881, l,ord Dutferin, in his Winnipeg speech, said :\t\"1 believe the Canadians are well able to take care of their future, and the outside world had better listen to them instead of promulgating weak and mild theories of their own.\" Was this a hit at the Imperial Federation idea?Now for n slashing opinion to close with.It is from La Mincrvt in 18-81, and hits olf one of the Juliette orators of the summer of 18n8 , \" It is important, in considering tho future of Canada, to estimate the French element in our population.They would to-mor row bo a unit for independence, notwitbstaml ing Sir Hector's utterances of loyalty to British connection.\u201d There was never written iu Canada a tiuer line.All this goes to prove, not that Canada\u2019* pre- sent status could be improved by change, bet that it is no treason to discuss either indepea dence or annexation.NOTES AND NOTICES.Do Not Fobckt the cheap excursion to Portland, Me., and return via thu Canadian Pacific Railway and the White Mountains, on Aug 2fth &

yfiw/vil of Ntw York)\u2014\\)r.Flagg, of Philadelphia, said : \u201c I think it not too strong ground to take, that bristle brushes do infinitely more harm than Sood.\u201d Similarly, Dr.Cook, a famous Brooklyn entist, said : \" While bristle brushes, when soft, aud properly used, are of great benefit to many ismule, yet it may be seriously questioned whether they have not, on the whole, been of injury to civilized people.\u201d When a bristle brush has bwen used a short while, the hairs lose tin ir parallel set and become loose.A brush of this sort should be immediately thrown away, The stragglers are apt to perforate the cheeks, gums and palate, and by carrying small pieces of food from between the teeth, to jioisoa the minute perforations.With the felt it is dif fereut.It does not come apart, nor does the abrasion make any appreciable loss of substance.It cleanses the teeth, and through the edges reaches the sides and angles where the bristles of the old fashioned brush do not penetrate.It polishes the enamel rapidly and easily, and when aided by a good dentifrice removes tartar and stains without dilticulty or trouble.With the felt brush the felt lasts from one to three vvoeks, and then can be replaced by a new block.The handle and metal hoop are almost indestruc tible, so that from an economic standpoint, a felt brush is not one-tenth so dear as any other.In conclusion, it may be stated that no one who has given the new invention a trial will ever go back to the brush of our fathers.The increased ease and comfort of it* use, tho greater polish, health and

TM),000 cans this summer, representing perhaps ISO,000 SALMON.The catch seems to average 12 i>ounds, the spring salmon about 2.'i pounds, and occasional specimens range from r«0 up to 7'.* pound*.The tx'aîf», flat bottomed and unreaworthy, art» manned by about equal numbers of whites and Indians who extend nets across tde inlets in certain tide*.The fish caught in meshes by the gills are taken to the cannery, and thrown in a gleaming heap on a raft.They are' then conveyed into the building, where Chinamen and Indian women are engaged in cleaning them.Ice hca-.i and tails are removed and they are then cut, crammed idto tins which aremado on the spot, soldered and tested, boiled, and tnen baked After being again tested, they are finally piled upon a stack, which numbered ten* cf thousands when I sawfit.Tnecans are ultimate ly lacquered, laMled and packed in boxes t\"rned out from a neighboring saw mill and factory.They »re then shipped to the Victoria market, where the demand exceeds the supply.I consider the actual process cleanly : a'tnough some of the canneries are I'NArPBOACHAT.LE VOR TOCLNESS at low tide.Severe measures should be tak*n by the Government or a fearful outbreak of illness will some day occur.There i« a chance on tuecoftftt for » certain cla«s of white men, such as Maritime Province fishermen of temperate habits and with moderate families.Pay averages about $60 a month for the canning seasjQ, anl th- year can be eked ont with gardeem\u201d wood cutting and hunting.Fish and deer meat are absurdly cheap, and small game snd wild yrur correspondent, ascending the Oxstall Inlet for some miles to the We twin ot/.a cascade.The scenery improved with every mile, the mountains becoming more precipitous, the water-full» larger and more beautiful, until opposite the cascade it reached a climax.We had just passed a precipice 2,000 feet high, an 1 a gem of an islet, when the crests of a precipitous snow clad mountain, with walls of 3,000 feet, barred the way.The mountain walls wt re slate, slashed with silver grey, and far up to the right was a large glacier half hid in cloud.Rounding a |'«'int where tine grouj* of pines stood high over the bright underbrush we came to a bay, and at the far side, landing beside a broad chute, paused above a jiool in the woods, and a gravel ^ach.From the far side poured down a dar/.ling white cascade some two hundred feet in apparent height, and broadening as it thundered from steep lodges, casting out spray and vapor, and drowning the voices of the surrounding hills with a tumult of sound, and calling forth a jwrjietual echo.Not only does the We-tsim otra rank among THE UHEAT CArABACTS OB CANADA, but it is surrounded by unusual attractions apart from the superb scenery.There are trout and salmon, deer, bears and wild geese.Here is wild fruit in the woods, good bathing and endless chances for pleasant exploration of un-visited place* near by, Apart from the rainy climate it would be hard to find a pleasanter camping ground.SOMETHING ABOCT BKKEKA DISH VS.The diet here is curious.Salmon is the staple food ; the local cow is milked with a can oj>ener : the meat is butchesgd with the same tool; and the luxuries are oolachan or candle hsb, and \u201clebroo,\u201d or the snds of soapberry (eaten on a paddle shaped stick sitting in a circle round a wash basin m which the so l* are brewed with the unwashed band of an Indian maiden), the salmon berry, Skeena berry, common large blueberry, bilberry, thimble berry and aal-tal berry.Bear and deer meat are also much eaten.The nostrils may also revel in natural perfume* in the woods, which are a pleasant contrast to those about the village* which are very pronounced at low tide.Altogether Skeena River may well be recommended in fine weather to the tourist for sport, scenery and the picturesque, and the rveople are warm hearted and hospitable to a degree ti_°*,,pn.n?et\tThe best time is from the 10th of July to the 10th of August, when the salmon fishing and canning the berries and the hoe weather are ail in full blast.By the next boat you shall have an account of the frwi.ou* Mrtlakfthtlft and Kort Simpdou en the Chiptian peniimxlft, .*11111 at Took».Alaska, it will be possible, perhap-, to get some news of the seal fishery trouble on Behring\u2019s Sea ON THE UNIVERSITY SITE.IN81UHTI.Y AND M.I.EÜAL BDILDINOB WHKHE LAVAL IN EXPECTED TO UAÜJK ITS STATELY HEAD.The Laval University site, at the corner of Ontario and St.Denis streets, has long been adorned with a butcher's shanty, denominated by the proud owner \" the East End Beaver 11 all,\" or some such high sounding name.It was often asked why this unsightly wooden building, contrary to the by-law, was allowed to disfigure so respectable a neighbor hood.To day people aro asking why an additional shanty lias been erected right at the corner of St.Deni* street.A Wiltitts reporter, in conversation with the Building Inspector, was informed that ad action had been entered, in the latter case, against the jiroprietor* of the land,\u2014namely, the University,\u2014for allowing a building contrary to law.It seems that the University itself is not to blame in the matter, but that the unsightly sheds are due to an ex alderman who has leased the land at a nominal figure from the Laval authorities, and is permitting persons to build temporarily as described.The butcher's shop was duly ordered to be bricked by Mr.I^acroix some time ago, but the ex-alder-man in question made it his business to sen several members of the Fire Committee, and the order has, consequently, remained |iu abeyance ever aince.The structures are, of course, in-Unded to be temporary, the aite being held for the university building.In the meantime the law says that they must be bricked or raz-d to the ground.Thursday, August 23, 1888.ADVERTISEMENTS.THK ADJOURNED AN- ndai, MKETINO of iho MoNTKKAL KIKLK AMOUUTIÔN will Le !lc|j jn \u2019Ike I*.W.It, Mergeant\u2019s Mess Mourus, 8T JAUL.i HtUKKr.On FKIOAY, \u2018Hlb Iasi,, at M |i.ui.tltari», j A toll sttcudance is rtsiucteg.I».M.Mcl BAK, Eery.M S u o NG A BRITISH COLUMBIAN VIEW.THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT BLAMED KOB LEAVING THE INDIANS CNGOVEBNKD\u2014THE MISSIONARIES NOT TO BLAME.itrffuA Columbian editorially says: \u2014 l ti« Montreal B'ifnrri is deserving of credit for its enterprise in employing a special correspon-dent to visit the sc.ne of the Skeena Indian trouble in this province.In its weekly issue of August 1st it exhibits n n.ap of the north-wist const of Brituh Columbia, etr bracing tho principal Indian settlements from Alaska to the southern end of tjueen Charlotte\u2019s Island.The information given in the Witneu, although not new to British Columbians, who have often heard of the difficulties amongst the Indians on the north west coast of this province, jiresents a brief but comprehensive view of the tru* \u2022tat« 'of \u2018he Indian difficulties and their probab.e cause or causes.The people of British Lolumbia generally have paid very little attention to the report* that at times appeared with I rottB 4r' au\" 41 i jc to p regard to the trouble! between the various tribes I l*00 I\u2019*< trers are dull.of Indian* themselves and the jealousies that\tIB \" to |i Lave existed between the mi«*ii>niirie.i wit.'» a .\t5 !
