Mr.Chaplain, who declared they would not submit their claims to the Montreal show, as to whether they should prepare articles for the Centennial Exhibition, the following resolution was carried unanimously : Moved by W.Chaplain, seconded by R.H.Smith, \u201c That the proposal that all goods intended for exhibition at Philadelnhia must be first exhibited at Montreal, would tend to destroy any chance of such goods having a fair chance at the Philadelphia Exhibition, as the extra handling and exposure of said goods, would spoil their appearance ; and that such proposal, if insisted on, must tend to stop many intending exhibitors.\u201d FROM B SOCKVI I LF.Sentenced to Death.Brockvxlle, Ont.March 30, The trial of Greaves and Dr.Sparham, for abortion, which has been proceeding for three
