be found published elsewhere.As regards the earnings of the Merchants Bank, a statement of which we have already given, we notice that the general manager, Mr.Hague, in his remarks at the meeting, felt more than pleased at the result of the year\u2019s business which, however, as he pointed out, was only accomplished by the most careful watchfulness on the part of the manage ment.He dwelt at some length upon the unwise course of bankers permitting any great expansion in credit and kindly cautioned commetcial borgowers te reflect and be cautious in this matter.A warning word was also thrown out against over- trading and overproduction, and the great benefits in the future to the Dominion to be derived from developing the resources of the North-West Territories by means of the Canadian Pa cific railway, were ably pointed out.The speech of Mr.Hague is deserving of careful perusal by all interested in the welfare of the country, and we doubt not will have a beneficial effect upon tie business community.At the meeting of shareholders of La Banque Jacques Cartier, the President, Mr.À.Desjardins, M.P., read the report, showing that the profits of the Bank during the year ending 31st May last amounted to $66,772, which, with the balance at credit of profit and loss for the preceding year $10,563, made a total of $77,336.Of this $35,000 was paid in the two half-yearly dividends, and $15,000 added to the rest leaving a balance of $27,336 to credit of profit and loss.The rest is now $140,000, or 28 per ceat.of the capital, and a sufficient amount 18 set aside to meet all contingencies.The report refers to the vacancy made on the board by the resignation of Mr.St.Onge, and that it was thought advisable to wait until this meeting to fill the vacancy.After the ordinary votes of thanks to the President, Directors and officers of the bank the vote for the election of the Directors for the ensuing year resulted as follows: \u2014A.Desjardins, MP, A.S.Hamelin, J.L.Cassidy, L.H.Huot, L.Mount, J.O.Gravel, A.Couillard.At a subsequent meeting of the Directors, Mr.A.Desjardins, M.P., was elected President, and Mr.A.S.Hamelin, Vice-President.The report of the President of the Ville Marie Bank pointed out that though the\u2019 times were not very bright still with prudence a fairly prosperous year might be anticipated.The past year\u2019s business of the bank had been most satisfactory, and a large portion.of the bamk\u2019s real estate has been disposed of, and it is the intention of the directors to dispose of the balance.The statement showed that the net profits of the year were $31,892 which, with the balance carried at credit of profit and loss on 31 May 1882, made a total of $56,047, Of this $13,927 was paid out for the dividend of December, 1882, and $13,929 for that of June, 1883, $1,650 has -been deducted for real estate, $20,000 carried to reserve fund, and $6,641 is now at the credit of prafit and loss.At the annual meeting of the Bank of Hamilton, in Hamilton, yesterday, Messrsdnc.Stuart, Jas.Turner, Ed.Gurney, Dennis Moore, John Proctor, Gee.Roach and A.G.Ramsay were elected directors, andiMr.Stuart and Mr.Jas.Turner President and Vice-President respectively.The meeting of the shareholders «of the Ontario Bank was held in Toronto on Tuesday last and was:most satisfactery to \u2018all present.A full report of the preceed- ings will be found in another column.The money market developed no change \u2018eday, and rates of discount were un- -Changed at 6#/@7 for prine mercantile pa- -per and 5#/@6 on call loans

steamers in the Continental Insurance Company, of New York, at 1 per cent., whilst the insurance companies of Canada demanded 13 per cent.We are to-day in receipt of advices from New York, stating that the Continental head office has ordered the risk to be immediately cancelled, as it was taken by an agent out of the city, and without the approval of the President of the office in New York.We presume that our Canadian companies will highly ap prove of Mr Hope's action, whatever the Navigation Company may think of it.Mr, Hope is one of the most conservative and reliable underwriters in the United States \u2014 The Yarmouth (N.8.), Duck and\u2019 Yarn Company has been organized with the following provisional directors: \u2014Wm.D.Sovitt, Samuel Killam, A.C.Robbins, Frank Killam, Bowman Corning, Thos.E.Kelly, John Oldfield.Capital $100,000.The factory will be of brick, 130x170 ft., three stories, to give employmeat to 150 to 200 hands and turn out 1,000,000 yards cotton duck per annum.\u2014The shipments of coal from the ports | of Sydney and North Sydney, from the opening of navigation to June 2, show & the corresponding Mie International and Reserve Pier, 31,335 196 vessels arrived, against 85 for the same period 1n 1882.\u2014A meeting of the creditors of James A.Young & Co., boot and shoe manufac turers, was held at four o\u2019clock this after noon.All those having claims on the estate were represented, The statement submitted for consideration showed liabilities of $42,000, with assets of $29,000, a deficiency of $13,000.It was decided to place discretionary power in the hands of the trustees as to the disposal of the estate, with the proviso that it should be disposed of in three blocks, viz., stock, book debts and machinery, either by public auction or private sale.\u2014A compromise which will likely be of & permanent character has been effected between Chaudiere lumbermen and cap tains of American boats in relation to freight rates.It will be remembered that the captains struck for $4 per thousand feet to New York and $3.75 to Albany, to which the mill men very reluctantly acceded.The following tariff of rates io established from Ottawa to Burlington and Whitehall, $3.25; Troy and Albany $3.50, New York $3.75\u201425c.extra on ships to Albany and New York.\u2014A despatch from Pittsburgh to-day says the revival of rumors of financial embarrassment of an iron firm and the report of a deal in Chicago caused great uneasiness to holders of oil yesterday.At one time a great panic was imminent.Members of the syndicate which holde ten million barrcls stemmed up the tide.The sales were heavy.\u2014There were rumors to-day of impending financial difficulties in speculative circles, arising through heavy losses sustained by the series of ¢ breaks\u201d in the Chicago option markets.\u2014TheSS.\u201cGlenavon\u201d sailed from Amoy on June 9 for New York with the \u2018first cargo of the new tea this season.PRODUCE AND

constructing railway stations and work shops in the city of Montreal and that this committee consist of Ald.Laurent, Rainville, Brown, J.C.Wilson and the mover onder.Carried.A eotion of Ald.Robert, seconded by Ald.Berger, the 16th Order-of-the-Day was taken up, recommending that the City Hall Committee be allowed to vary certain items of their appropriation.The report of that committee was read, and, on motion, was unani- ly adopted.me arent then moved that the Mth or er of the day be taken up, recomin oat leave be granted te Phe St.Lawrence Sugar Refining Company to erect a bridge across Queen street, from the company\u2019s sugar house to their offices, the company to be held responsible for any accidents which might oceur.id.Laurent moved, seconded by Ald.Roy, the adoption of the report, which was carried after an objection was brought by Ald.Mooney that the bridge was already erected.His Worship the Mayor here entered and took the chair.Ald.Grenier, seconded by Ald.Stevenson, moved that the Council dornow go intoja committee of the whole for the further consideration of THE C.P.R.BY-LAW, Ald.Fairbairn moved that the committee do not go into committee of the whole, but that it give instructions to the special committee in the C.P.R.by-law to take into consideration and report to Council the advisability of acquiring the property of the C.P.R.Ald.Grenier held that the motion was out of order.; * His Worship declared the motion in order, whereupon Ald.Grenier appealed from thé Mayor\u2019s decision, and the question being put to a vote, the appeal was carried by a vote of 12 for and 6 against.His Worship-then put Ald.Grenier\u2019s motion to the meeting, and it was carried una- nimousty.Ald.ainville then took the chair.Ald.Mooney objected to the way section 80 of the by-law: had been adopted the day previous.He claimed that there had not been a quorum, and\u2018declared that the way that certain members of the Couhcil had n rushing through the business by \u201c gag-law,\u201d was a perfect mockery.He aléo held that when- \u2018ever any members endeavored to change any gection of the by-law, they had been scorned \u2018and sat upon.Ald.Holland thought it would be advisable to proceed slowly in the matter, and also stated that there had not been a quorum when section 30 was passed, and remarked that it would Be well to have it reconsidered.His Worship the Mayor held that there had not been a quorum, while Ald.Grenier emphatically denied such a statement.A SCENE IN COUNCIL.Ald.Mooney requested the chairman to roduce the voting list so as to prove there Pad not been a quorum, but at the same time he held there had not been for four or five of \u2018the members Lad left the chamber before the motion was put.\"Ald.Grenier remarked that all those who left the chamb r were nothing but cowards.This incensed Ald.Mooney who emphatically denied that there was a coward in the Council Chamber.A great uproar here ensued in the midst of which Ald.Grenier said tha: Ald.Mooney was personally a coward while thatgentle- man repudiated the charge by calling Ald.Grenier a liar.After a great deal of discussion Ald.Grenier accused Ald.Holland of having agreed to favor the by-law but thut he had suddenly been influenced in some manner to vote against it.Ald.Holland said te had never made any such agreement.Ald.Stevenson finally put an end to the discussion by moving the reconsideration of section 30.The notion was carried and Ald.Stevenson then moved, seconded by Ald.\u2018 Beausoleil,that the section pe adopted.Ald.Moonry moved in amendment ;\u2014 That the reading of the section from the 8th line be alterel so as to read :\u2014** Provided also that the sald corporation may, after a notice or'six months to the said company, to be given within the twelve months immediately preceding the expiration of the first ten years, and of every subsequent five years until the end of the suid twenty-five yeurs, assume the ownership of said railway and all its real estate, appurtenances, plant, horses and vehicles belonging to the sald companyon payment of their value, to be determined by arbitration.\u201d\u201d Provided further that section 3 be further amended by striking out all the words after the word \u201c* But\u201d in the 2st line, as follows: \u2014* But the said company shall be entitled to the preference should their terms and conditions be as favorable as those of others tendering for such rallway.\u201d The amendment being put was lost by a vote of 7 for and 9 against.Ald.Holland moved in amendment, That section 2 he amended as follows :\u2014\u2018\u201c To strike the words,\u2018\u2018 said 25 years\u201d from the eleventh line, and insert the words * first ten years, and of every subsequent five years until the end of the said twenty-five years,\u201d and that linea 15, 16, 17 and 18 be struck out as far as the word \u201c provided.\u201d This was also lost by a similar vote.Ald.Beauchamp moved in amendment that the words from \u2018\u2018referring\u2019 in the eighth line to \u201cprovided\u201d in the nineteenth line be replaced by the words \u201cthat the said company will be held to remove the rails and put the street in a state of repairs,\u201d and that the words from the twenty-second line to the end be struck out.\u2014Lost.Ald.Tansey moved also in amendment that section 30 be amended in the eleventh line by substituting 5 ycars for 25 years, with the additional words, \u2018\u2018and at the expiration of every subsequent 5 years.\u201d This was also lost by a vote of 5 for and 14 against.Ald.Robert moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.Roy, that all the words in the last four lines, \u201cbut the said company shall be entitled to the preference should their eondi- tions be as favorable as those of others tendering for such railway,\u201d be struck out and that the section thus amended be adopted.This motion met with a more general approval, andon being put was carried by a vote of 14 for and 5 against.Section 31 was then read, and Ald.Stevenson moved that it be adopted as amended.Ald.Holland moved that the seventh and $ighth lines be struck out.\u2014Lost by a vote of 0 8.The main motion was then put and carried.Section 32 was then read and adopted.Section 33, when read, gave rise to a short discussion, and was finally amended by .ild.Mooney suggesting that the words * offence \u201d\u2019 and \u2018\u2018 for\u201d be added in the 5th line after the word each.The section, as amended, was adopted.Sections 3¢ and 35 were carried without opposition.Ald.Grenier then submitted a system of an 8th district, which he proposed would run along Craig from Panet, up Visitation street to Sherbrooke and return to the point of departure on Craig street by way of Amherst street.The plan was laid on the table.Ald.Grenier then moved that the committee arise and report on the by-law.\u2014Carried.The council then adjourned till Tuesday next at three o'clock.LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.Court of Queen's Bench__Crown Side.The Court resumed at 10.30 o'clock yesterday.Present\u2014Chief-Justice Sir A.A.Dorion.QUEEN VS.SELLAR.Chief-Justice Sir A.A.Dorion then rendered judgmett, upon the application of Mr.Kerr, Q.C., for a new trial in the case of the Queen vs.Sellar.His Honor said that, upon examining the authorities that had been cited, he had come to the conclusion that after a defendant had once been put in jeopardy and acquitted lie could not again be tried for the same offence.The only case on record in which a new trial had been granted after acquittal was in a case of nuisance.In the case of malfeasance where the punishmen! was imprisonment, no new trials have eve.been granted after convie- tion.His Honor referred to a large number of cases that \u201ctad been cited, and expressed himself very strongly as of opinion that in cases of misdcineanor no new trial should be granted after conviction.The motion would herefore be re ected.It would be unneces- Sary to go into the merits of the question as to whether the Court was right or not in its charge to the ! ury, but he might observe that having exami ed the matter more maturely he saw no reason to modify the opinion he had then expressed that there was no proof at all that the defendant and the Robert Sellar mentioned in the affidavit were one and the same person.Mr.Kerr, Q.C., sald His Honor might still reserve the question for the full bench, His Honor replied that it would be useless to do so as he had just given it as his opinion that a new triut could not be ordered even if the court were in error in its instruction to e jury.Mr.Maclaren, Q.C., cited the chapter and section of the Consolidated Statutes relating to reserved cases, showing that the gourt had only power to reserve points in cases where the defendant was convicted, and not in cases of acquittal such as the present.The counsel for the prosecution concurred in this, and the court then adjourned.The libel case was thus finally terminated.HOME ITEMS.\u2014 AH your own fault If you remain sick when you can Get hop bitters that nsever\u2014 Fail.The weakest woman, smallest

Mr.Hutton said that they must raise the money wanted in some way and unless they could raise it by assessments on the members they would be forced to take it out of vhe mission fund, which would, be unrighteous.The question being put to the Assembly by the Lord Birhop, it was decided by a standing vote that the names of the parishes which had not paid their assessments be read.There were only five: \u2014West Shefford, Stacinthe, Hemmingford, Glen Sutton, Mille Iles, two of which, West Shefford and Hemmingford, were vacant.Rev.J.8.Low, of Carleton Pla e, Ont.,Rev.Jos.Fennell, of the Diocese of Niagara, and Rev.M.H.Fothergill, of Q 1ebec, were introduced to the Synod.The election of the several committres was then proceeded with.The executive committee being the first, the Rev.J.Cattermole, the Rev.W.B.Longhurst and Mr.P.C.Moor were appointed scrutincers on the clerical side, the Rev.Canon Norman, Dr.Church and Mr.L.H.Davidson for the lay side.The election of delegates to the Provincial Synod came next.The scrutineers were Rev.F.Smith, the Rev.J.W.Garland and Mr.King on the clerical side ; Mr.James Hutton, Mr.Ë.Garth and the Rev.W.H.Nye on the lay side.he Bishop explained that they were to vote for seventeen names.A lively discussion followed as to whether it was necessary that seventeen names should be upon the ballot.Mr.Macrae said that it was absolutely necessary that the seventeen names should be entered, as otherwise it would be impossible to carry out the canon.; The Rev.Archdeacon Evans considered that it would not be right to force a man to put more names on his ballot than he could conscientiously do.After considerable di.- cussion, in which Mr.L.H.Davidson, Mr.Thomas White, Canon Davidson and others took part, Mr.W.Thomas suggested that for some twenty years they had not thrown out ballots because they had more or less than seventeen names, and no great harm had come of it.The Bishop ruled that they would go on voting a8 they had formerly done, but at the same time they were conscientious!y bound to vote for seventeen names if they oould.The voting was then proceeded with.The election of officers of the Diocesan Court was then vrodeeded with, the secrutineers being the Rev.John Ker, the Rev.J.Merrick, Mr.Meldrum, clerical side; Mr.C.E.C.Brown, Mr.R.Alcombrack, the Rev.George Rogers, lay side.; Several notices of motion were then given, and the Synod rose for recess.AFTERNOON SESSION.The Synod resumed at 2.15 o'clock, and proceeded to the consideration of the Executive Committee's report of its proceedings during the yegr 1882-3.\u2018 The usual formal statements of the meetings of the committee held during the year, with the business done, were adopted without dissent.THe scale of grants to missions for the year 1883-81 was next taken up for consideration, and was as follows: Adamsville, $400; Aylmer, $200; Aylwin, $370; Bolten, $40); Boscobel and North Ely, $1); Bristlo, $:.s; Clarendon, $300: Edwardstown, $9; Franklin and Havelock, $ 0; Glen Suiten, $4); Grenville, $239; Huntingdon, $20); Iron Hill, 350; Kildare, $23); Lacadie and Savanne, 1(); Lachute and Arundel, § 1: T.iprarie, 2.3; Mille Iles and Morin, $° ); Milton and South Rexton, $30); New G.a gow, $7); North Gore, 35); Norta Wakefield, 30); Ormstown, $203; Papineauville, $7); Po tage du Fort, $ ©); Potion, 7%; \"~~ co 1; South Stukeliy, $44); Tuorne, 5.23 Upion, 150; North Gore and adjoining missions, 1093 total, 89,702.The Committee on Grants reported.Their first object has been to plr -e the salaries of the clergy upon the scale of\u2014 deacons, $500; priests under 5 years, $60): over 5 years, $7¢); over 10 years, 3863.Mr.8.Bethune, Q.C., moved the adoption of the above scale of grants.Rev.Archdeacon Lindeay asked if this would preclude any other grant being made.Mr.L.H.Davidson said vhe Synod had no power to increase the grants suggested by the committee, but could recommend that a grant should be made to any other parish.The grasts were then confirmed.Mr, £ Bethune, Q.C., moved the adoption of the followimg clauses, which were also carried unanimously :\u2014 The committee would urge the adoption of the system of weekly payments, to change the present wretched custom of obliging the churchwardezs to go around first to obtain names upon the subscription list, and then go to collect the amounts, which involves.often several journeys to the same house, gives a :great amount Qf unnecessary trouble, and \u201ctakes away the religious character of the -affering.The committee would recommend the promotion of local endowments, to be held by the ysod.The committee would also recommend the grataitous circulation of missionary intelligence, especially showing the work of our own diocese.The.zommittee hoges that the recommend- | ation of Synod, 22 Session, page 280, may be\u2019 Canon Norman, Ven.Archdeacon, Lonsdell, «arried out: \u201cThat the third day of Synod be set apart for the consideration of Mission work in its several departments, Dioeesan, Domestic and Foreign.\u201d\u2019\u2014Carried.A discussion arose om the next clanse, which read as follows : If was resolved, that in order to raise the sum of $500 per antlum, pledged by the synod of this dioeese for a period of five years towards the support of the Bishop of Algoma an assessment be made on the several parishes for thig purpose ; this assessment to calculated at the rate of one per cent.on the amount of the clerical stipends.Mr.White, M.P., gaid that the difficulty in the clause appeared io him to be that there was no assurance that they would receive the $59, as it was & mere voluntary matter on the part of the parish and not & tax.His Lordship said that it had been the custom to assess a certain amount on each parish, based upon the stipend of the clergyman.Mr.8.Bethune said that the method was one that had been followed for the past several years.The clause was then carried.The annexed report on endowments aud trusts was also a lop.ed.Ar annexed report of the Committee on Graats, recommending, among other grants or the past year, 8 bcaius of $'°) to a city missionary, was next considered.t.L.H.Davidson asked if there had been a ci ¥ missionary during the past year, and if xOt, to whom had the money been paid to ?\u2018His Lordship said that there hal been no city missionary and the money kad not been 1 expended.Mr.Davidson then contended that it should not have been entar~d, but the difficulty was obviated by adding the words \u2018for the ensuing year.The following clause was next considered : That in view of the very limit-d means of the widow of the late Major Hi.am Mills, she be paid an allowance of $15) ver annum, payable quarterly during her lifetime, out of the following wunds: 375 out of the Sust:ntation Fund, acd $75 out of the Superannuation und.Mr.S.Bethune movcd that the clause be alopted.Mr.L.H.David«on objr>!2d, as one of the trustees, on the groundthat the £ustentation Fand had been raised by representations to the public that it was only to be expended in aid of old and enfeebled ministers and not In aid of any individual however deserving, He held that by slonting the clause they wou'd be roting i'legaily and laying down a very dangerous precedent.Mr.John Crawford thought that there was a discretionary power vested in the Synod, and though he azreed with Mr.Davidson as far as piinciple was concerned, he thought-a wholesome exercise of this discretionary power might be exercised in the present case.Mr.F.W.Thomas, a.i>r referring to the numerous chatit\u2019es and liberal b-oquests of the late Major Mills, referred to the fact that McGill University, which hed received a donation, made a grant to the widow of Major Mills, and he thought it would be only fitting for the Synod to do so to.Mr.L.H.Davidson said he simply desir: 1 to have his pro.est entered as a trustee, in order that he might be relieved from any responsibility in the matte=.Mr.Davidson\u2019s protest was accordingly entered, and the clause then unanimously adopted.Mr.S.Bethune then moved, .seconded by Rev.Canon Carmichae!, that the Treasurer\u2019s statement annexed to the Executive Commitcuce*s report be adopted.MTSSION WORK.Mr.Thos.White, M.P., said that before the report was adopted he wished to call the attention of the Synod to the fact that while the contributions in the city towa:ds the mission fund had largely increased during the past year, the country contributions had rather decreased than increased.One of the principal objections of sc ne people in the city towards contributing to the fund was that in their opinion not as much was done by the country as might be done.For instance in the Deanery of Bedford there were 571 families, of which 493 were subscribers and of this number 107 families only contributed $l each, 98 32; 36 $3; 47 $4; and 102 families $5 each, and the same trouble existed in some of the other deaneries.He thought that a great deal more might be done by the deaneries towards placing tneir ministers on a proper footing, and said that they might rest assured that the city would do its part, on condition, however, that the people who received the benefits of the missionary should contribute more towards the support of the work.(Applause.) Rev.Mr.Brown suggested that a deputation of laymen should be appointed to visit the different parishes on the matter Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay said he was at a loss to understand how Mr.White had arrived at his conclusions.He contended that the figures furnished by Mr.White were altogether defective.The total amount contributed by the Deanery of Bedford, amounted to $25,0 ) a year.Andhe thought it would be very wrong tolet it go forth, that those who contributed so liberally were not contributing enough.He held that there was no part of the diocese that contributed so largely to the church as the Eastern Townships.Mr.White said he had only referred to the amount contributed to the mission fund, and notwithstanding what the Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay might say the fact still remained that there were 107 tamiliesin the Deanery of Bedford that contributed only $1 each to the mission work.Rev.Rural Dean Lindsay said that the statistics had been carefully prepared and the figures were correct.He considered that the people had not yet been taught how to contribute.Mr.Thos.White, M.P., said he was dealing simply with the missions and not the deaneries or rectories, and he contended that the missions were not doing as well as they might.And in his opinion they would never be better as long as the ministers said that they were doing all that they could.Rura* Dean [Mussen was of opinion that as far as the deaneries were concerned, they all did very well, and each family in the parish contributed something.Mr.F.W.Thomas said that the fact remained that while the city contributions had increased the contributions from the country had decreased, aud he thought this should not be so.Mr.L.H.Davidson said that in his opinion their country friends made this mistake, that while thinking of the amount contributed for all purposes, they forgot to think of the relative support per family tewards the support ofthe church\u2019s werk outside of each particular parish.Mr.John Crawford questioned the propriety of comparing the city and country, as he thought it should be rsmembered.that the circumstances of each were different, and the financial position of the residents of the city much better than those in the country.Mr.W.Hackwell said he wished some of the city ministers and laymen would come out to the country and see the hardship they had to put up with.Tue Treasurer\u2019s report was then adepted.THE DIOCESE OF HURON\u2019S GREETING.His Lordship Bishop Bond here read the following message that he had just received: LONDON, Ont, June 20th.To the Synod of the Diocese of Montreal : The Bishop and Synod of the Diocese of Huron, in session assembled, reciprocates most heartily vour fraternal greeting, and earnestly pray for the Divine blessing upon the work in which you are engaged.BISHOP OF HURON.The message was received with applause by the members of Synod.A BIOCESAN TEMPERANCE SOCIETY.Mr.L H.Davidson then moved, that in order the more effectually to bring to bear the influence of the church upon the great evil of intemperance, it is desirable that a Diocesan Society, en the lines and principles of The Church of England Temperance Society, in the Mother Church, should be forthwith organized for this Diocese of Montreal.That a committee be named to prepare a constitution based upon the principles laid d wn as the basis of The Church of England Temperance Society, and to nut the society into operation as soon as possible.Rev.Canon Carmichael, in seconding the resolution, said he would have been more in favor of a Diocesan Total Abstinence Society, but still he took great pleasure in seconding the resolution.The motion was carried unanimously, and His Lordship named a committee composed of Mr.LH.Davidson (Convener), Rev.Canon Carmichael, and several others to act on the matter.THE ELECTION OF OFFICERS.His Lordship then read the report of the serutineers on the elections, which showed the following results :\u2014 DIOCESAN COURT.Rev.Canon Déwidson, Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay, Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, Rev.Canon Ellegood, Rev.Canon Henderson, Rev.Archdeacon Lonsdell, Rev.Canon Norman, Venerable Archdeacon Leach, Rev.Canon Carmichael, Rev.Canon Johnson, Rev.Canon DuVernet, Rev.Rural Dean Mussen, Rev.Canon Anderson, Rev.J.Constantine, Rev.Archdeacon Evans.EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay, Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, Rev.Archdeacon Evans, Rev.Rural Dean Mussen, Rev.Archdeacon Lonsdell, Rev.Canon Norman, Rev.Rural Dean Lindsay, Rev.Canon Carmichael, Rev.Canon Davidson, Rev.Canon Ellegood, Rev.Canon Robinson, Rev.Wx L.Mills, Rev.Rural Dean Rollit, Rev.Canon Anderson, Rev.J.8, Stone, Messrs.S.Bethune, Q.C., F.W.Thomas, Thos.\u2018White, M.P., L.H.Davidson, A.F.Gault, Chas, Garth, R.P.Hannaford, Thos.Simpson, W.Drake, Joel C.Baker, R.Evans, T.P.Butler, L.G.Macdonald, Ron.W.W.Lynch, W.R.Salter.;

(b) that she possesses such characteiistiics as in the judgment of the persons testifying fit her for atleast one of the branches of duty above defined.Such testimonials shall be signed by one presbyter of the church and by five lay communicants, of whom two shall be men and three women.The Bishop shall also sacisfy himself that the applicant has had an adequate preparation for her work, both technical and religious.which preparation shall have covered at least one year.4.No deaconess shall work officially in this diocese without the exnress authority in writing of the bishop of ths diocese.5.A deaconess may at any time resign her office to the ecclesiastical authority from which she received it, but no deaconess having once given up the commission shall be re-appointed, unless in the judgment of the bishop such resignation was for weighty causes.6.A deaconess may be transferred from this diocese to another by letters dismissing, upon request of the bishop of the diocese to which she is transferred.7.In case of deaconesses joining together in one community the constitution rules and overnment thereof shall first be submitted o and approved by the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, and shall be in harmony with the usuges of this church and the principles of the nook of Common Prayer.8 No manual shall be used by any such community unless it be submitted to the shop.9.No deaconess shall be sent to any parish or mission without the consent of the incumbent of said parish or mission, Verv Rev.Dean Baldwin, in moving the adoption of the resolution, said that one ofthe great signs of the mighty life and earnestness that was at present pervading the church was that a disposition was shown to use evel v member of the c'iurch in its work.Woman\u2019s work especially had risen to an immense degree of importance, and was becoming more valued every day.(Apolanse.) The great work that woman had doue in India was beyond all praise, and she had done and was doinga work that no man could do.Something had to be done as regarded their domestic missions, and in every par.sh there was work to be done that could on'y be successfully periormed by women, such as the case of contagious diseases, which prevailed in the city, and it pained him to say that in several instances their people had 10 .call in the services of the sisters of the Roman Catholic Church simply because noone else could baz found to attend totheir wants.No one, he said, could have a stronger dislike toanything approaching the nature of a Sisterhood, but while ignoring tue one he would choose the other, and whilst strongly opposed to the one as anti-scriptural, he would heartily give his support to what he had proposed as alike in accordance with the word of God and the precious traths of the English Churéh.Mr.L.H, Davidson, ia seconding the motion, said tliat he regarded the movement as oneo\u2019 the signs of the times and that in reusing 17 avail themselves of the services of women in the past they had done wrong.Me agreed with the Dean in opposition to any thing like a permanent life vow and thought | that the members shold be free to come and free to go.(Applause.) He also agreed that they shov'd be under the control of the Bishop and the Diocese, and thought that every provisien had been ,made in the Canon for any danger that migat avise.Rev.Aruhur French took exception to the rema\u201dksof Very Rev.Dean Baldwin regarding Sisterhoods.the members of whom he thought hau done a noble work in the past in connection with the Church of England at home.Rev.Canon Norman thought that Rev.Mr.French had misunderstood the remarks of the Dean, who in his opinion had intended to refersimp'y to the sisters of the Church of Rome.He had given the subject now before them a great deal of attention and had arrived at an opinion entirely in accord with the Dean.He considered that an order of deaconesses was in accordance with scripture and had existed in olden times until stifled by the Church of Rome.He was cutirely opposed to life vows and anything like the imitation of a sisterhood,as he was convinced that a voluntary vow was the most natural.He was also opposed to the members forming independent communities, but thought that they should be responsible to the bishop.He thought that a great good might be done in future with the aid of womea.Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, in answer to Rev.Mr.French, said he did not wish to be understood as depreciating the self-sacrificing work ofthe members of the sisterhood.He could appreciate the seli-sacrifice of the nuns of Rome; he could honor them although he might differ from them in their principles.Bu he was opposed to a system of sisterhood first, because they took life vows, which he held were utterly unscriptural, and also because he disliked anything that savored o Rome.(Applause.) ; The motion and canon were then unanim- Ously adopted.DECEASED MEMBERS.Mr.Thos.White moved, seconded by Rev.Canon Carmichael, That this Synod bowing with prayerful submission to the inscrutable Providence of Almighty God in the removal by death of WE.Scott, M.D., N.S.Whitney, M.H.Sanborn, and W.B.Simpson, for many years members of this body, desires to express its sense of the great less which the church in this diocese has sustained by their death, its appreciation of the earnestness and Christian devotion which marked them in all the relations of life, and its profound sympathy and condolence with the bereaved families in their sad loss.; That a copy of this resolution be communicated to the families of the deceased.The motion was carried unanimously.His Lordship named a committee, consisting of Rev.Canon Anderson, Hon.Judge Armstrong, Dean Baldwin, Messrs.Bethune and White, to draft a resolution on the death of the late Archbishop of Canterbury.THE REVISED TESTAMENT.On motion of Dean Baldwin, seconded by Rev.Canon Norman, it was resolved\u2014 That this Synod, recognizing the great importance of New Testament revision, and the necessity that existed for its speedy accomplishment in order that the authorized translation might more faithtully represent the original Greek and meet all the demands which a reasonable criticism might exact, desires to express to the English and American Board of Revisors its hearty appreciation and grateful recognition of their most learned and valued services, and while not committing jtself to the approval of every individual alteration, accepts the result of their labors as a noble triumph of profound scholarship and chastened zeal.On motion of Chancellor Bethune, seconded by Rev.Canon Davidson, the report of the Committee®on Canons was adopted and it was resolved : That \u2018ix hundred copies of the revised edition of the Constitution, the Rules of Order, Canons, Rules and Regulations of this Synod, submitted by the Committee on Canons, be printed, and that a copy be furnished to each member of Synod.A motion by the Rev.Canon Davidson and an amendment by Rev.Archdeacon Evans regarding the Superannuation Fund was,after some discussion, on motion of Mr.Thomas White, M.P., referred to the Committee on the Superannuation Fund.ENVELOPE COLLECTION.Rev.Canon Carmichael then moved, seconded by Mr.L.H.Davidson, Co That this Synod endorse the principle of collecting for the Mission Fund of the Diocese by envelope offerings in the church, during divine service, and recommends the adoption of the system wherever practicable.That the Lord Bishop be requested to set apart a special day or days to be known as \u201cMission Sunday,\u201d when such offerings might be made.That His Lordship appoint a commitee to report at this Synod as to the means whereby sueh day or days may be made most useful to the diocese.;

but when old and oung, rich and poor, pastor and docjor, awyer and editor, all testify to having been cured by them, vou must Lehieve an try them yourself, and doubt no longer.ON THIRTY DAYS\u2019 TRIAL- TrE Vouraio Berr Co., Marshall, Mich., will send Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Electro- Voltaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guarantee ing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014Norisk is incurred, as thirty days rial is allowed.J.RIELLF, Land Surveyor, 146 ST.JAMES STREET, GIBBONS & McNAB, Barristers and Attornies\u201d OEFIC à Corner Richmond and Carling Streets LONDON, ONT.Gzo.MoNas.2 Gro.C.GisroNs | January 3 YES!

made by an American contemporary we learn that in the United States last year 121 criminals were hanged according to law, and that no less than 117 wretches were lynched\u2014namely 50 in the north and 67 in the south.In addition to this it is stated that about five out of every six of the murderers who were duly tried, convicted and sentenced to death subsequently escaped the gallows, by legal quibbles, the use of money or by political influence.This is a truly lamentable state of affairs ; but the most distressing feature of it all is that things appear to be becoming worse instead of better.Not a day passes but we hear of lynchings.Our despatches arc filled with the particulars of such sutrages.Here arc a few cases reported within the last few days.In Enterprise, Miss.,, a mob hanged a young negru named Harris without the benefit of judge or jury in this way :\u2014 \u201cThey quietly made their way to the jail, which was but slightly guarded.It took but a few moments to overpower the turnkey and b:at in the cell doors.Harris was quickly secured, and in spite of his piteous appeals for mercy was taken in charge by the mob, They conducted him to the railroad bridge but a short distance away, and soon the negro\u2019s life- le:s body was dangling at the end of a gwaying rope.\u201d A despatch from San Antonio, Texas, reports another case of double lynching in these words :\u2014\u201c Information from Cotulla is te the effect that the carcasses of a negro and a Mexican were found hanging in La Salle County.The negro was minus head and lower limbs, but was recognized as Joe Anderson, a notorious thief.\u201d Here is another case, which took place in the town of Sheboygan, Michigan, a State in which, by law, there is no such thing as capital punishment :\u2014* Warner, a sailor, accused of assaulting and stabbing an eight-year-old girl at Sheboygan, Mich., was taken from jail and hanged by a mob.He asserted his innocence to the last.\u201d Again, from Dallas, Texas, we are informed that \u201cHenry Brock, a notorious thief and counterfeiter, was hanged near Cotulla thie morning by a party of lynchers.\u201d Once more, from Brinkley, Ark., the news comes that \u201cat midnight a mob, chiefly composed of white men working on Major Palmer\u2019s plantation, near here, took Grant Granville (colored) from the county officers and hanged him to a tree till he was dead.Granville had murdered a white man.\u201d From the State of Alabama comes word to the effect that a man named Jordan Corbin was taken from prison and hanged by a mob.These few cases are but the record of two days.They indicate that the entire criminal system of the United States is rotten to the core in practice, however sound it may be in principle.The enraged populace are driven to commit these crimes simply because juries will not discharge their duties fairly, fearlessly and honestly.Asa New York paper says, juries can no longer be trusted.\u201cThe acquittal of Congressman Thompson, after perpetrating a deliberate homicide, by a jury in Harrodsburg, Ky., and the immediately preceding acquittal of Dukes, the Pennsylvania Assemblyman, who has since paid the penalty of his infamous conduct aud character at the hands of a private vendetta, were notable indications that the law under the interpretation of the ordinary jury is no longer efficient for the protection of life from individual appeal to summary violence, Unless such events shall have the effect of shocking public sentiment into a reform of the clements of which juries are composed, that system must surely and speedily go to pieces.\u201d J RINE TEST RE AN LTE] DEATH JF BISHOP COLENSO.The death of Bishop Colenso, which is announced in our despatches, recalls at once to mind a controversy which, twenty-one years ago, made a great commotion in the Christian world, in which bishop of the Church of England was | brated fr found taking a strong stand against the authenticity of the Pentateuch.The deceased bishop was born in 1814 and graduated as second wrangler at Cambridge.He became eminent for his scholarship; and was one of #%e masters of Harrow School fror- 1538 to 1842, and afterwards for fo«F years a tutor at St.John\u2019s Colless Cambridge.In 1846 he became th- rector of a Norfolk parish, snd in 1854 first Bishop of Natal.Prior ;0 this appointiment, he had become cele- his well-known works on #gebra and Arithmetic, but the fame of these soon became usignificant in comparison with that of his controversial writings.Attention was first called to the peculiar views he held by the dedication of a volume of sermons to the Rev.Mr.Maurice, at a time when that gentleman was in disgrace with the orthodox section of the Christian world.In 1861 his letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury in regard to converts from heathenism created a general sensation.In it he reccommended that such converts, when they had several wives, should not be forced to put all except one away.This view of the matter was loudly condemned by the clergy generally, but in 1862 he gave them much more serious reason to be dissatisfied with him by publishing \u201cThe Pentateuch and the Book of Joshua critically examined,\u201d in which he undertook to prove that these books, as they stand, were not the products of the age to which they were generally assigned or of the authors whose pames they bear.He also questioned their historical accuracy.Colenso was fiercely attacked for this work and was declared by his Metropolitan, the Bishop of Cape Town, to be deposed from his See,but on appeal to the Privy Council the deposition \"was declared null and void.Since then Bishop Colense has chiefly been brought into notice as the advocate of the rights of the Zulus and other African tribes against the injustice of the white man.He was a man of benevolent character and blameless life, and modern thinkers, even among the clergy, have advanced so far beyond the opinions which he held, that the fierce controversy of which his writings were the cause would not new be remembered by the majority of people but for the tidings of his death.ne THE MERCHANT'S BANK MEETING.The annual meeting of a corporation whose assets foot up twenty millions of dollars, is an event of no slight importance, While the report of the Merchant\u2019s Bank has been in the hands of the shareholders for the past two weeks, the explanations of the General Manager were looked forward to with a large amount of interest.All who have transactions with our banking institutions, and all who share the responsibility of their management, will appreciate the thoroughly practical character of Mr.Hague\u2019s remarks, While Mr.Smithers dealt very \u2018ably and impartially with some features of the bank\u2019s relations with the outer world, Mr.Hague treats no less successfully of other features which called for the candid criticism and advice which the General Manager of so large an institution was so well fitted to offer, not merely to those with whom his position brings him in contact, but -to customers of all other banking institutions.Mr.Hague dwells upon the abuse of the credit system, explaining how it embarrasses both the lending bank and the borrowing customer, extending its evil effects in an ever widening circle.His remarks upon the \u201ceternal vigilance\u2019 which is the price of successful lending will be appreciated by brother managers and carry conviction to the minds of all who are capable of comprehending the responsibilities of those great monetary institutions without whose support and active assistance the wheels of commerce could not revolve.We notice that Mr.Hague favors the establishment of a sort of Banking Union for regulating the rates of discount, interest and fexchange\u2014a proposition which the banks\u2019 customers may not regard with as much complaisance as some of the bank managers will probably do.Mr.Hague\u2019s suggestions on the insolvent law, the Pacific railway, ete, are all of the practical character which is stamped upon his address as a whole.The report of the proceedings, which we publish in another column, will repay careful perusal.INTERESTING TO SPORTSMEN.The facts stated in the following telegram to the HErALD will, no doubt, interest some Montreal gentlemen who have been anxious to secure fishing privileges on the rivers which the New Brunswick government offered for sale yesterday.When it is considered that the privilege was sold for a single year it must be conceded that fancy prices have been paid.From a few streams the Government has realized $3,435.Our Fredericton correspondent telegraphs as follows :\u2014 \u201c The.right of fishing [with the rod only] on the principal rivers of New Brunswick, was offered for competition to-day at the Crowa Land office.The licenses are good tor one year.There was a large number of fishermen present.The following is the result :\u2014 \u201cNo.1, from Toad Brook to Indian Brook on the Restigouche, A.L.Light, [represented by Mr.Clinch, of St.John] ; $825.\u201cNo.2, from Indian Brook to Tracy Brook, Restigouche, to Dr.A.L.Mason, New York, one of the directors of the Restigouche Fishing Club ; $500.\u201cNo.3, Restigouche, H.R.Ranney, St.John ; $600.\u201c Kedgwick River, H.V.Habersham, Savannah, Ga; $510.\u201c No.1, Nepisiguit River, J.W.Nicholson, St.John, $300; No.2.Nepisiguit River, J.W.Nicholson, St.John ; $360.A \u2014 eae.a ~~.« Upsalquitch River, from the Falls up ; H.V.Habersham, Savannah ; $200.\u2018Jacquet River, Henry R.Ranney, St.John ; $130.Total, $3,435.\u2018 There will be another sale of fishing lots next Wednesday.One of our citizens has been commissioned by a New York party to secure specified privileges regardless of cost.The upset price on the Kedgwick was placed to-day at $1,000, but as there were no bidders at this price, it was reduced to $500 aud knocked down to Mr.Habersham for $519.The competition was 30 sharp that opponents insisted on the purchase money being paid down by the successful competitors before the next sale was proceeded with.A number of American and other sporting gentlemen are here.A report is current that there is a representative of Vanderbilt here in connection with the sale.Mrs.Habersham and Mrs.Dr.Mason are now encamped with a party on the Restigouche.\u201d WE OBSERVE with much satisfaction that the people of St.John, N.B., have been successful in establishing more rapid communication between their city and Boston than would have heretofore been deemed possible.The railway time between St.John and Boston has been reduced from twenty-four to fifteen hours, an improvement so great that we need not enlarge upon it.Nine hours, the saving in time effected, is a very large part of a day of human life and might make or mar a man or a firm.The announcement, with regard to Boston, at once suggests the idea whether something might not be done to obtain more rapid railway transit between St.John and Montreal, At present the time from St.John to Montreal, by the Intercolonial, is nominally thirty-four and a half hours, but, practically, thirty-five hours or more.By the St.John and Maine, the Maine Central and the Grand Trunk, the time nominally is thirty-three hours.We think that this time might easily be reduced to twenty-three hours, and that the fast train to Boston affords a ready means of accomplishing this.At present the passenger who leaves St.John y the western route, bound to Montreal, takes his departure at 9 p.m.He reaches Danville Junction at 11.30 a.m.and has to remain there nearly four hours before the Grand Trunk train from Portland comes to pick him up.When he begins to journey towards Montreal he finds that he has to stop an hour and a half at Island Pond, and two or some times three hours at Richmond ; so that he hardly ever reaches Montreal earlier than 7 a.m., or 34 hours from St.John.The fast St.John express now goes from Waterville to Portland via Augusta, but there seems to be no reason why it should not go wie Danville Junction.If it did, a passenger who left St.John at 7 a.m.would be at Danville Junction at about 5.20 p.m.If, therefore, the Grand Trunk train which now leaves Portland at 130 p.m.would postpone its departure until 4.30 p.m., it would enable passengers from New Brunswick, who would come to Danville Junction by the fast express to connect, and to reach Montreal at six next morning, thus reducing the time between St.John and Montreal to 23 hours.No one will pretend that 135 hours is not abundantly sufficient for the run from Portland to Montreal; for the present running time, including extraordinary stops, is far better than that.All that is needed is to reduce the detentions at Island Pond and Richmond to reasonable limits, and to make the connection above indicated, to bring St.John, N.B., and Montreal within 23 hours of each other.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 REFERRING to the Canadian cattle trade in England, the London correspondent of the Toronto Globe remarks :\u2014\u201cI had a conversation to-day with Mr.G.PF.Frankland, of Teronto, respecting the Canadian cattle trade.Mr.Frankland fully confirms all I have previously said as to the prospects of the trade this season.Moreover he assures me that there is a very appreciable improvement in the quality of the cattle being sent over from the Dominion, They are decidedly superior ta the consignments in previous ears, and now rank on quite the same evel as the best United States beasts.Mr, Frankland, however, still complains, and I think with justice, of the restrictions put upon the trade by the English authorities.Of course some of those rules are absolutely necessary to effectually prevent the introduction of disease.But of others this cannot be said.As it is impossible to send cattle from London to the provincial markets, some consignments to Mr.Frankland have been shipped by his partner, Mr.Morse, to Bristol.But here the authorities will not permit any cattle to enter Somersetshire unless the shipper can declare that he has had them in his possession on English soil for fourteen days.A few days back Mr.Frankland sold some beasts at thd market in this ciety, but at the close of the day buyers found they could not remove them, owing to the regulation to which I have just referred.A considerable pecuniary loss was ef course the result.\u2018It is difficult to see on what grounds such an arbitrary rule can be justified.Mr.Frankland will remain in this country some little time longer to receive several more large consignments during the season.\u201d \u2018 Most PEOPLE are probably not aware that for che past eight or ten years a rather extensive business has been carried on in the shipment of hacmatac knees for ship building from Ontario to the States of Maine and Massachusetts.Maine has been so long looked upon as a land of inexhaustible forests, that it is with surprise we learn that the fine ships of which its people \u2018are so proud could not be built but forthe assistance of Canada.There are plenty of small knees in Maine, but large knees of 8 inehes and upwards are very scarce, and those that exist are in laces not easily reached.Among the Bret to operate in the shipment of knees to Maine was Mr.J.8.Edgerley, of Fox Meade, Ont., although a Maine man.There are eight or nine persons now engaged in the business.Most of the knees go to Bath, and the cost of carrying them over the 1,100 miles of railway between the place where they are cut ard Bath is $85 a car, or about $2 each.The price at Bath varies from $7 to $8 and $9 each, so that ship knees are, by no means, cheap.During the present summer it is expected that large shipments of knees will be made to Maine from 3 21-10.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 D DAILY (COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, THURSDAY, © 1\" 21 YB find the followingfin a Scotch paper that came out by the last mail \u2014\u201c About midnight on Saturday two steamers conveying large quantities of fresh and kippered herrings arrived at the western terminus of the Highland Railway.The fish was consigned to the London markets, and the instructions were to have it at once conveyed to its destination.About one o\u2019clock Sunday morning, however, the residents of Strome assembled in large numbers and protested against the sanctity of the Sabbath being thus invaded.They took possession of the pier and railway property, resisted the efforts of the police to dislodge them, and refused to permit the removal of the fish during canonical hours.\u201d No doubt the people were sincere in acting as they did, but it does seem a contradiction, that while it was thought wrong to move goods on the Sabbath, there was no wrong in fighting on the Lord\u2019s day.\u2014_\u2014 YESTERDAY Trinity Church was the scene of a fashionable wedding between Mr.P.A.Crossby, Manager of the Dominion Type Foundry, and Miss Ellen Winifred Carruthers, a relation of Dr.Perrigo, of this city, Miss Jennie Robertson acting as bridesmaid and Mr.William J.Jarvis as groomsman.The rector of the parish, the Rev.W.L.Mills, was the officiating clergyman.On the entering of the wedding party Mendelssohn\u2019s Wedding March was appropriately played by the organist, Mr.F.W.Mills.The happy couple left for New York on the conclusion of the ceremony.They have our best wishes.JUNK DEALERS everywhere will be interested in the announcement that the Imperial Government is calling for tenders for H.M.S.\u201cCharybdis.\u201d The Government, \u2018by the way, is probably not aware that Mr.Senecal has not yet completed the purchase of the Allan line of steamers; so that until this event has transpired it is difficult to discover where the capital is to come from to buy so expensive a craft as the \u201c Charybdis,\u201d unless the junk men come to the front.THE annual report of the Superintendent of Education of the Province of Quebec for the year ¥882 has just been issued.From the figures given we learn that there are in the province 4,440 schools; that the number of pupils on the rolls is 236,699; and the average attendance, 180,463.YESTERDAY the General Manager of the G.N.W.Telegraph Company received from London the following cablegram which he has placed at the disposal

sustained a severe loss In the decease of its late lamented president, Sir Hugh Allan, by whom the Bank was originally founded, and who had sustained the responsibilities ofa director continuously for a period of twenty years.The energy, enterprise and ability of the late president in connection with the great shipping and commercial enterprises of the Dominion are so well known that no special mention of them is needful here.His decease, which was unexpected, took place in Scotland, shortly after he had spent some time in negociations connected with the English arrangements of the Bank, so that he may be said to have passed away in the midst of active service for the institution.After a fitting interval, during which the duties of the president were carefully fulfilled by Mr.Robert Anderson, the vice-president, Mr.Andrew Allan was appointed to the vacant office, under the provisions of the Banking Act of the ominion.Mr.Benny, whe was elected at the last annual meeting, havin detlined to serve, the directors appointe the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott in his stead.The vacancy created by the death of the president was filled by the appointment of Mr.John Duncan.The year just closed was marked by very great activity at its commencement, succeeded by a period of curtailment and monetary pressure towards its close.Symptoms of unhealthy expansion were generally manifest last year, both in the extension of buildings for manufacturing purposes, and also in the imperts of the products of other countries.Your directors have earefully watched the course of commercial affairs, and have taken such measures from time to time as were necessary to protect the interests of the bank, .They have endeavored, amidst increas- Ing monetary pressure, to discriminate carefully between the various transactions brought before them, and to note the first indications of an inflated or speculative style of business in the operations of their customers, Their object has been to build Up a sound and safe connection, and they believe the business of the bank has shown a steady improvement in quality, notwithstanding manifestations of unsound- Less in various quarters, and the com-

now set in.The country is being rapidl opened up by the Canadian Pacific rail- Way and its connections.A large immigration of a highly satisfactory character Is taking place; and it is believed that business and values will henceforth rest OR & more satisfactory basis than formerly.During the year the bank received, with great regret, an intimation from Mr.Mac- Arthur, of Winnipeg, that he had decided to retire from the position he had occupied as Manager of the Branch there from Us commencement.Your directors have marked their sense of the great value of - services by the presentation of a

sums from time to time as a foundation for it.The fund has, so far, been invested in the stock of the bank, and was sufficient to purchase 67 shares.This year the sum of $4,000 has been set aside, so as to enable the holding to be increased to 100 shares The directors trust this will meet with the approbation of the stockholders.Experience having proved that the funds of the bank could be employed with as much net profit in New York as in Chicago, and with d'minished risks, the branch in the latter city has been closed.New branches have been opened at Regina, the Feat of Government of the new territory in the north-west, and at Sherbrooke, in the Eastern Townships.The business in both these places is being conducted with much caution.In conclusion, your directors desire to express the satisfaction they have had in the zealand energy with which the various officers of the bank, from the highest to the lowest, have performed their duties, and to state that, as an incentive to renewed exertions, they have appropriated a sufficient sum from the profits of the year to provide for a bonus on their salaries.The whole respectfully submitted, ANDREW ALLAN, President, \u2014 GENERAL

and it has brought with it, in many quarters, its usual accompaniment of commercial trouble.For, gentlemen, I speak from long conviction in saying that the credit system\u2014 although the very life of both commerce and banking\u2014is sometimes very seriously abused in Canada.There has been, in various quarters, an entire lack of pru- deuce and consideration of circumstances, both with regard to the present standing of customers and their antecedents; leading to the giving of credit to far larger amounts than the case warranted.Customers, also, notwithstanding excuses urged (such as importunity of travellers, &c.,) are often equally blamable in taking credit, and buying goods to an amount far beyond their ability to meet within a reasonable time.The responsibilities involved in taking credit are often entirely overlooked, \u2014 responsibility to keep well insured for example.If there is a brisk season, it is taken for granted it will always last.No provision 13 made for contingencies, or changes; for a reverse of trade, or for altered circumstances, But reverses and changes are art of the ordinary contingencies of life.They come inevitably after a time.Then, those who are unprepared are found with heavy stocks of goods they cannot sell, book debts they cannot collect, and engagements they cannot meet\u2014 possibly also with lots of real estate, bought also on credit, the payments on which are coming due simultaneously with payments for merchandise, all finally leading te entanglement and embarrassment.Now, it may not strike you as it does me, but the simple fact is, that the burden of most of this want of prudence falls upon the banks.It is sometimes said that the banks have themselves to blame for many of the troubles that befall themselves and their customers.This is perfectly true.Bankers are, no doubt, often to blame for being good natured, and for yielding to importunity.The fact is, we must make, up our minds to be blamed in any case.For my part, I would rather be blamed for refusing the accommodation which will do a customer harm, than for granting it, and doing him an injury thereby.(Hear, hear and applause).This is a question of the very first importance for bank stockholders.It is generally your money in reality, gentlemen, that is at stake when ever-crediting is being carried on.You are all, therefore, interested in diminishing this great evil.But so far as active steps are concerned, it is fer directors and bank officers to take measures to check it.In so doing, they have the real in ter- est of customers in view.I hold, indeed, that a judicious banker may often prevent his customers from making shipwreck of their business, if they will only listen to his advice, and limit credit within reasonable bounds.So far from being restive and sensitive under such advice, a prudent merchant will be glad to take all the hints he can get.And if the banker oes further and absolutely refuses to al- jo certain lines to be increased, the last thing a wise trader will do will be to endeavour to place the paper elsewhere, I need not say to you, however, that this is only too common a practice.But itis done at your risk, and sometimes at your expense.The risk of all this falls on bank stockholders, and they have to meet its consequences, occasionally in the most unpleasant shape possible.A prudent merchant, I repeat, will not seek accommodation in other quarters when a check is put upon the amount done on certain names.He will rather restrict his dealings with these customers, and in so doing he will generally save himself from loss, perhaps from failure.The practice of keeping two or three bank accounts is not a judicious one.I speak this after twenty years\u2019 experience.Itis only the very strongest houses that can afford to run the risk of it.It prevents the merchant having the benefit of the banker\u2019s information and the banker\u2019s judgment as to the amount of credit he is giving, This wholesome check being removed, credit is apt to be extended until that dangerous period is reached when accounts get entirely beyond control.In nine cases out of ten, when this transpires, the failure of the merchant himself is only à question of time.have long noted it, as a matter of fact, that in nearly every case of mercantile failure, two or three banking accounts are kept.Far, indeed, am I from saying that every merchant who discounts at mere than ene bank is in an unsound position.But I do say this\u2014that the practice leads to undue extension of credit; deprives a customer of the benefit of the banker\u2019s information and judgment; and leads indirectly to losses which may ultimately bring the merchant down.I am satisfied, from long years of observation, that many mercantile failures, and those of a large amount and importance, would have been, in all probability, prevented, if only one account had been kept.(Applause.) Itis generally an unreasonable amount of credit, given to a few persens, that causes a merchant\u2019s ruin.Now, if the paper of the amount is-likely to be noticed and a check imposed before much mischief is done.But if the paper is spread over two or three institutions, the amount is not so large as to excite special attention.The mischief then goes on unchecked until it is too late to be remedied.There is this further to be said, that parties who keep accounts with two or more banks have no claim on any of them when a time of pressure comes.Although aware that this strain of remark may be unpalatable, a sense of duty to the bank and its constituents leads me to take it up.The bank, let me say, can have no interest but in the welfare of its customers, and it would be a matter of pride and satisfaction to us all were the customers of this bank so dealt with, that they would avoid disasters, and continue in business steadily year after year; surviving the hard times that trouble us at intervals, and keeping accounts that were a source of equal satisfaction to themselves and to the bank.This I believe to be possible, if customers will give us their undivided confidence.The subject of credit is of the very essence of our business.We dispense credit ourselves through ager, addressed the meeting as follows :\u2014 fl nsolvent estates, the discharge of A.Ma = Gentlemen, \u2014It'; , source of satisfaction i our customers.If they are judicious, \u2018has been well maintained, amidst a com- Otherwise they trouble us and themselves There is much said just now of over- trading and overproduction.But over- trading rarely takes place except by abuse of credit.The same applies to overproduction.People rarely\u2014if ever\u2014over- produce when they are working on their own capital.It is by means of borrowed money, and high discounts that mischief is done.Excuse me, therefore, dwelling on it at such length.These remarks bear with force on the state of things which has prevailed during the past year.It'has been a year, as I have said, of Very considerable anxiety.Our discounts have been high, Every branch of business has been carried on with great enterprise and activity.Canada had a ood harvest, and our forests yielded well.his state of things always stimulates business, men are hopeful, and ready to buy and sell.They areready also to give and take credit.Promissory notes and bills of exchange always increase at such times, and the banks are heavily drawn upon for loans and discounts.Men are ready also to extend old enterprises and engage in new ones.There has been much of this, as you are aware.The extension of our cottor and woollen factories has been very great, and has absorbed very large amounts of capital.Railways have also absorbed immense sums.We have, in fact, been converting our floating into fixed capital at a very rapid rate.Hence the drain on eur deposits and the tightening of moneyg But it is to be noted that banking profits, so called (for all isnot gold that glitters), are generally very good at such a time as this.A note of caution, however, as to large profits is not out of place at present.They are the result of lending large amounts of money.Now you cannot lend additional sums of money without having additional risks, as well as additional interest.I took occasion, once, in this room, to call attention to the fact that all banks are in the habit of crediting interest before they really receive it.We take credit for profits while our risks are running.Bayt, gentlemen, I need not tell you that the Ultimate issue depends upon the gooduess of the loan.At the very time\u2019 when a bank is expanding its discounts, and swelling up its interest receivable, it may be preparing the way for disaster.'Indeed, it certainly will do so unless vigilance goes on increasing as loans expand, These observations are not theoretical, They gre gathered from Canadian experience.Two years before the difficulties of the Bank of Upper Canada begap, its profits mounted up to 25 per cent.But in that very year the seeds of its ruin were sown.The profits of all the banks were very heavy in the years preceding the great reverses of 1876 to 1879.There is no absolute necessity for a period of good rofits to be followed by reverses.Engh and Scotch experience proves the contrary.But there can be no question that such times are apt to disturb a banker\u2019s judgment.Vigilance is apt to be relaxed when profits swell up to large figures.But we never need to be so vigilant\u2014and I will even say suspiciously vigilant\u2014as in a time of heavy business and large profits.If we are vigilant we may see the elements of trouble beforehand and avoid them.Then we shall keep our profits, and go on adding to them.year by year, no matter how hard the times may Le.AU this, however, points to the wisdom of holding large amounts of profits in reserve and not dividing them, We ave making progress in building up a substantial reserved fund or Rest, and with a few more years of good business, well watched, we may hope to accumulate sufficient to satisfy every possible requirement in that direction.e are on the way to it ; and for the next few years any energy aud experience we have at command will be devoted to bringing about this desirable consummation, special THE NORTH-WEST.Let me now say a word or two abou: that interesting subject: the North- West, We have a large business in the North-West, as you are aware ; and you are equally aware that a very heavy reaction has set in there from the over- abounding prosperity of a \u2018vear ago.This reaction, I may say, was foreseen by us long before it came about.It was made the subject of much correspondence with our judicious and able manager, Mr, MacArthur.We had set,our faces resolutely against discounts based on real estate (applause), and, I may add, had become very unpepular with some people in consequence.We have watched our North-Western business persistently and carefully, Our late lamented president and myself visited all our Manitoba branches last Augustit was no holiday visit.The whole of our business was then thoroughly reviewed, and directions given as to its course.The Assistant General Manager, who has, I am glad to tell you, co-oper- ated with me most efficiently since his appointment, has been twice up to the .North-West durin the year.when he made a rénewed and searching examination of our business at all points.\u2018This has cost a good deal of money, but the expenditure has been well repaid.Though we had to pass through a very severe ordeal during de winter, we came through it comparatively free.Our new manager, Mr.Miller, is proving thoroughly competent for the position he occupies, while, as you have heard in the re- ort, we retain the valuable services of r.MacArthur as local adviser ; not for Winnipeg only, but for the whole North- West.The business of the bank generally, petition that has not always been judicious or reasonable, in certain quarters.With our prittipat-vætghbors we have had pleasure in cultivating good relations and Rave acted with them in matters of mutual interest.It is extremely desirable that such a condition of mutual cooperation should be brought about between the banks in Canada as exists in Scotland.(Hear, hear.) There, the rates of discount, interest and exchange, are settled by a committee chosen from the different banks.These are communicated to all the branehes and agencies of the banks simultaneously, and no manager or agent would ever think of departing from them.(Applause.) This system keeps competition within reasonable limits, and I am persuaded it is as beneficial to the mercantile community as to the banks, The oppesite system here has led to that very abuse of credit which has been already referred to, and to not a few losses; some of them serious ones.Ido not know that it is to the interest of anybody that banks should make losses.Banks cannot lose money until their customers have become bankrupt.That cannot be for the interest of the bankrupt himself, or of his creditors, or of his supporters.Certainly, gentlemen, it is not they prosper and help us to prosper.If » oA as 4 iia oh a _ _ I can assure #ou { would just like to say with regard to that His last visit wa made during the winter, } fund now amounts taa very large sum ity generally.Anything therefore that would strengthen the tone of business and diminish insolvencies must be a public benefit.INSOLYENCY LAW, This is the second year during which we have conducted our business without an insolvency law.During that time we have had to do With every interest in the country, both-great and sumal!, without a single exception, Of the magnitude of our business you may judge, when I state that we have passed through our books in loans and discounts the sum of $95,495,000, and we have passed over our counter in cheques, deposits, etc., the sum of $1,275,183,000.Now to handle that amount of money without.losing a part, lending by, is not a very easy thing to do.(Hear, hear, and applause.) Fortunately we have not to do with many cases of insolvency of late, but my deliberate conviction is we should have had many more in Canada, if traders bad had it in their power to procure, by force of law, a discharge of their debts without paying them.There are many and eighty reasons why a law for the equal distribution of insolvent estates is desirable.But a law which gives to any person debts is to the last degree undesirable, The law should be for the enforcement a contract is entirely a matter for the parties to it.An honest but unfortunate debtor can always count on fair treatment by his creditors.But to compel the breach of a contract, by law, opens a wide door to dishonesty and incapacity.(Applause) Practically, (tg speak plainly), it punishes the honest, capable and cautious trader for the faults and follies of the incapable and incautious.Experience has proved \u2018it to be a direct incentive to insolveney, a discouragement to a trader who can only pay his debts by a struggle, and a hardship and injustice to those who have conducted their affairs \u2018with prudence.(Hear, hear and applause.) The absence of alaw of equitable distribution undoubtedly works to the disadvantage of creditors in certain cases.But as a choice of evils has to be ade, I respectfully submit that the pre- ent condition of \u2018things leads to far less evils than the former one It may ccasionally lead to some cases of hard reatment by creditors.Such cases, however, in this couniry sre of rare occurrence, and can never be cited as reasons for legislation which undermines the commercial tone of the whole community.PAST DUE BILLS.You may probably notice that our past due bills still swell up to} large proportions.There are more of them than we like.But many of them are of a casual character, and caused by a fim handling of accounts and refusing to renew.Past due bills always accumulate when such a policy is pursued.Bus it is the surest way to obtain payment and prevent ultimate loss.For such bills and debts as are doubtful we have made provision by our Contingent fund, and I may say a considerable pa=t of the addition to that fund this yesv, hes been for the purpose of strengthening the provision formerly made for doubtful matters ; not for meeting new losses.; Before sitting dowa 1 will detain you or amomentlonger to call attention to an item of profit specially mentioned in our report, | mean that arising out of the sale of Pacific Railway bonds.When we were asked by our good neighbors the ank of Montreal, to take an interest in oating these bonds, , I strongly recom- ended the Board to agree to the proposal.We had, of course, fhe prospect of profit.But I would have recommended it even if there had been no very considerable profit in view.It was a matter of great public importance to have that loan floated, aud I should \u2018have been glad could we haveseen our way to take more of it.(Hear, hear.) The construction of the Pacific railway is of the highest value to every interest in Canada (hear, hear and applause), but especially to the North-West.Itisa matter of pridesto us as Canadians that we ave doing so much out of our owa resources.(Applause.)

Troy and Albany $3.50, New York $3.75\u201425c.extra on ships to Albany and New York.\u2014A despatch from Pittsburgh to-day says the revival of rumors of financial embarrassment of an iron firm and the report of a deal in Chicago caused great uneasiness to holders of oil yesterday.At one time a great panic was imminent.Members of the syndicate which holde ten million barrcls stemmed up the tide.The sales were heavy.\u2014There were rumors to-day of impending financial difficulties in speculative circles, arising through heavy losses sustained by the series of ¢ breaks\u201d in the Chicago option markets.\u2014TheSS.\u201cGlenavon\u201d sailed from Amoy on June 9 for New York with the \u2018first cargo of the new tea this season.PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.MeNTREAL, June 20.Frour\u2014There has been à better enqui- ingtoa light supply holders have the advantage, and it follows that a firm offering is made.About 400 barrels changed hands at $4 974 @$5.But when the other grades are considered a very dull market is found which favors buyers.A car load of spring extra sold at $4 65.The supply, of all grades below superior is more than.ample, and prices are greatly nominal.We quote: \u2014 \u2018 Superior Extra, per brl.34.971 @ 35.00 Extra Superfine.- 480 D 4.85 Faney.0.00 @ 0.00 Spring Extra 4.65 @ 4.70 Superfine.4.25 @ 4.35 1 Strong BaKkers\u2019 (Canadian).5.15 @ 5.25 Strong Bakers' (American) 625 @ 6.75 Fine .ame nse en sacs000s 3.80 @ 3.9 Middlings .\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.3.55 @ 3.70 Pollards es 3.25 @ 3.40 Ontario bags, (medium).2.40 @ 2.50 | \u201c \u201c (spring extra).230 @ 2.35 1 \u201c ¢ (superfine).,.225 @ 230 | | City bags (delivered).3.05 @ 3.10 GraiN\u2014The dull features of the local) grain market are retained unmodified in any particular.Business is practically | suspended, and will probably remain in abeyance until foreign markets become more settled.We quote prices nominal ;

of the by-law: had been adopted the day previous.He claimed that there had not been a quorum, and\u2018declared that the way that certain members of the Couhcil had n rushing through the business by \u201c gag-law,\u201d was a perfect mockery.He aléo held that when- \u2018ever any members endeavored to change any gection of the by-law, they had been scorned \u2018and sat upon.Ald.Holland thought it would be advisable to proceed slowly in the matter, and also stated that there had not been a quorum when section 30 was passed, and remarked that it would Be well to have it reconsidered.His Worship the Mayor held that there had not been a quorum, while Ald.Grenier emphatically denied such a statement.A SCENE IN COUNCIL.Ald.Mooney requested the chairman to roduce the voting list so as to prove there Pad not been a quorum, but at the same time he held there had not been for four or five of \u2018the members Lad left the chamber before the motion was put.\"Ald.Grenier remarked that all those who left the chamb r were nothing but cowards.This incensed Ald.Mooney who emphatically denied that there was a coward in the Council Chamber.A great uproar here ensued in the midst of which Ald.Grenier said tha: Ald.Mooney was personally a coward while thatgentle- man repudiated the charge by calling Ald.Grenier a liar.After a great deal of discussion Ald.Grenier accused Ald.Holland of having agreed to favor the by-law but thut he had suddenly been influenced in some manner to vote against it.Ald.Holland said te had never made any such agreement.Ald.Stevenson finally put an end to the discussion by moving the reconsideration of section 30.The notion was carried and Ald.Stevenson then moved, seconded by Ald.\u2018 Beausoleil,that the section pe adopted.Ald.Moonry moved in amendment ;\u2014 That the reading of the section from the 8th line be alterel so as to read :\u2014** Provided also that the sald corporation may, after a notice or'six months to the said company, to be given within the twelve months immediately preceding the expiration of the first ten years, and of every subsequent five years until the end of the suid twenty-five yeurs, assume the ownership of said railway and all its real estate, appurtenances, plant, horses and vehicles belonging to the sald companyon payment of their value, to be determined by arbitration.\u201d\u201d Provided further that section 3 be further amended by striking out all the words after the word \u201c* But\u201d in the 2st line, as follows: \u2014* But the said company shall be entitled to the preference should their terms and conditions be as favorable as those of others tendering for such rallway.\u201d The amendment being put was lost by a vote of 7 for and 9 against.Ald.Holland moved in amendment, That section 2 he amended as follows :\u2014\u2018\u201c To strike the words,\u2018\u2018 said 25 years\u201d from the eleventh line, and insert the words * first ten years, and of every subsequent five years until the end of the said twenty-five years,\u201d and that linea 15, 16, 17 and 18 be struck out as far as the word \u201c provided.\u201d This was also lost by a similar vote.Ald.Beauchamp moved in amendment that the words from \u2018\u2018referring\u2019 in the eighth line to \u201cprovided\u201d in the nineteenth line be replaced by the words \u201cthat the said company will be held to remove the rails and put the street in a state of repairs,\u201d and that the words from the twenty-second line to the end be struck out.\u2014Lost.Ald.Tansey moved also in amendment that section 30 be amended in the eleventh line by substituting 5 ycars for 25 years, with the additional words, \u2018\u2018and at the expiration of every subsequent 5 years.\u201d This was also lost by a vote of 5 for and 14 against.Ald.Robert moved in amendment, seconded by Ald.Roy, that all the words in the last four lines, \u201cbut the said company shall be entitled to the preference should their eondi- tions be as favorable as those of others tendering for such railway,\u201d be struck out and that the section thus amended be adopted.This motion met with a more general approval, andon being put was carried by a vote of 14 for and 5 against.Section 31 was then read, and Ald.Stevenson moved that it be adopted as amended.Ald.Holland moved that the seventh and $ighth lines be struck out.\u2014Lost by a vote of 0 8.The main motion was then put and carried.Section 32 was then read and adopted.Section 33, when read, gave rise to a short discussion, and was finally amended by .ild.Mooney suggesting that the words * offence \u201d\u2019 and \u2018\u2018 for\u201d be added in the 5th line after the word each.The section, as amended, was adopted.Sections 3¢ and 35 were carried without opposition.Ald.Grenier then submitted a system of an 8th district, which he proposed would run along Craig from Panet, up Visitation street to Sherbrooke and return to the point of departure on Craig street by way of Amherst street.The plan was laid on the table.Ald.Grenier then moved that the committee arise and report on the by-law.\u2014Carried.The council then adjourned till Tuesday next at three o'clock.LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.Court of Queen's Bench__Crown Side.The Court resumed at 10.30 o'clock yesterday.Present\u2014Chief-Justice Sir A.A.Dorion.QUEEN VS.SELLAR.Chief-Justice Sir A.A.Dorion then rendered judgmett, upon the application of Mr.Kerr, Q.C., for a new trial in the case of the Queen vs.Sellar.His Honor said that, upon examining the authorities that had been cited, he had come to the conclusion that after a defendant had once been put in jeopardy and acquitted lie could not again be tried for the same offence.The only case on record in which a new trial had been granted after acquittal was in a case of nuisance.In the case of malfeasance where the punishmen! was imprisonment, no new trials have eve.been granted after convie- tion.His Honor referred to a large number of cases that \u201ctad been cited, and expressed himself very strongly as of opinion that in cases of misdcineanor no new trial should be granted after conviction.The motion would herefore be re ected.It would be unneces- Sary to go into the merits of the question as to whether the Court was right or not in its charge to the ! ury, but he might observe that having exami ed the matter more maturely he saw no reason to modify the opinion he had then expressed that there was no proof at all that the defendant and the Robert Sellar mentioned in the affidavit were one and the same person.Mr.Kerr, Q.C., sald His Honor might still reserve the question for the full bench, His Honor replied that it would be useless to do so as he had just given it as his opinion that a new triut could not be ordered even if the court were in error in its instruction to e jury.Mr.Maclaren, Q.C., cited the chapter and section of the Consolidated Statutes relating to reserved cases, showing that the gourt had only power to reserve points in cases where the defendant was convicted, and not in cases of acquittal such as the present.The counsel for the prosecution concurred in this, and the court then adjourned.The libel case was thus finally terminated.HOME ITEMS.\u2014 AH your own fault If you remain sick when you can Get hop bitters that nsever\u2014 Fail.The weakest woman, smallest

Mr.Hutton said that they must raise the money wanted in some way and unless they could raise it by assessments on the members they would be forced to take it out of vhe mission fund, which would, be unrighteous.The question being put to the Assembly by the Lord Birhop, it was decided by a standing vote that the names of the parishes which had not paid their assessments be read.There were only five: \u2014West Shefford, Stacinthe, Hemmingford, Glen Sutton, Mille Iles, two of which, West Shefford and Hemmingford, were vacant.Rev.J.8.Low, of Carleton Pla e, Ont.,Rev.Jos.Fennell, of the Diocese of Niagara, and Rev.M.H.Fothergill, of Q 1ebec, were introduced to the Synod.The election of the several committres was then proceeded with.The executive committee being the first, the Rev.J.Cattermole, the Rev.W.B.Longhurst and Mr.P.C.Moor were appointed scrutincers on the clerical side, the Rev.Canon Norman, Dr.Church and Mr.L.H.Davidson for the lay side.The election of delegates to the Provincial Synod came next.The scrutineers were Rev.F.Smith, the Rev.J.W.Garland and Mr.King on the clerical side ; Mr.James Hutton, Mr.Ë.Garth and the Rev.W.H.Nye on the lay side.he Bishop explained that they were to vote for seventeen names.A lively discussion followed as to whether it was necessary that seventeen names should be upon the ballot.Mr.Macrae said that it was absolutely necessary that the seventeen names should be entered, as otherwise it would be impossible to carry out the canon.; The Rev.Archdeacon Evans considered that it would not be right to force a man to put more names on his ballot than he could conscientiously do.After considerable di.- cussion, in which Mr.L.H.Davidson, Mr.Thomas White, Canon Davidson and others took part, Mr.W.Thomas suggested that for some twenty years they had not thrown out ballots because they had more or less than seventeen names, and no great harm had come of it.The Bishop ruled that they would go on voting a8 they had formerly done, but at the same time they were conscientious!y bound to vote for seventeen names if they oould.The voting was then proceeded with.The election of officers of the Diocesan Court was then vrodeeded with, the secrutineers being the Rev.John Ker, the Rev.J.Merrick, Mr.Meldrum, clerical side; Mr.C.E.C.Brown, Mr.R.Alcombrack, the Rev.George Rogers, lay side.; Several notices of motion were then given, and the Synod rose for recess.AFTERNOON SESSION.The Synod resumed at 2.15 o'clock, and proceeded to the consideration of the Executive Committee's report of its proceedings during the yegr 1882-3.\u2018 The usual formal statements of the meetings of the committee held during the year, with the business done, were adopted without dissent.THe scale of grants to missions for the year 1883-81 was next taken up for consideration, and was as follows: Adamsville, $400; Aylmer, $200; Aylwin, $370; Bolten, $40); Boscobel and North Ely, $1); Bristlo, $:.s; Clarendon, $300: Edwardstown, $9; Franklin and Havelock, $ 0; Glen Suiten, $4); Grenville, $239; Huntingdon, $20); Iron Hill, 350; Kildare, $23); Lacadie and Savanne, 1(); Lachute and Arundel, § 1: T.iprarie, 2.3; Mille Iles and Morin, $° ); Milton and South Rexton, $30); New G.a gow, $7); North Gore, 35); Norta Wakefield, 30); Ormstown, $203; Papineauville, $7); Po tage du Fort, $ ©); Potion, 7%; \"~~ co 1; South Stukeliy, $44); Tuorne, 5.23 Upion, 150; North Gore and adjoining missions, 1093 total, 89,702.The Committee on Grants reported.Their first object has been to plr -e the salaries of the clergy upon the scale of\u2014 deacons, $500; priests under 5 years, $60): over 5 years, $7¢); over 10 years, 3863.Mr.8.Bethune, Q.C., moved the adoption of the above scale of grants.Rev.Archdeacon Lindeay asked if this would preclude any other grant being made.Mr.L.H.Davidson said vhe Synod had no power to increase the grants suggested by the committee, but could recommend that a grant should be made to any other parish.The grasts were then confirmed.Mr, £ Bethune, Q.C., moved the adoption of the followimg clauses, which were also carried unanimously :\u2014 The committee would urge the adoption of the system of weekly payments, to change the present wretched custom of obliging the churchwardezs to go around first to obtain names upon the subscription list, and then go to collect the amounts, which involves.often several journeys to the same house, gives a :great amount Qf unnecessary trouble, and \u201ctakes away the religious character of the -affering.The committee would recommend the promotion of local endowments, to be held by the ysod.The committee would also recommend the grataitous circulation of missionary intelligence, especially showing the work of our own diocese.The.zommittee hoges that the recommend- | ation of Synod, 22 Session, page 280, may be\u2019 Canon Norman, Ven.Archdeacon, Lonsdell, «arried out: \u201cThat the third day of Synod be set apart for the consideration of Mission work in its several departments, Dioeesan, Domestic and Foreign.\u201d\u2019\u2014Carried.A discussion arose om the next clanse, which read as follows : If was resolved, that in order to raise the sum of $500 per antlum, pledged by the synod of this dioeese for a period of five years towards the support of the Bishop of Algoma an assessment be made on the several parishes for thig purpose ; this assessment to calculated at the rate of one per cent.on the amount of the clerical stipends.Mr.White, M.P., gaid that the difficulty in the clause appeared io him to be that there was no assurance that they would receive the $59, as it was & mere voluntary matter on the part of the parish and not & tax.His Lordship said that it had been the custom to assess a certain amount on each parish, based upon the stipend of the clergyman.Mr.8.Bethune said that the method was one that had been followed for the past several years.The clause was then carried.The annexed report on endowments aud trusts was also a lop.ed.Ar annexed report of the Committee on Graats, recommending, among other grants or the past year, 8 bcaius of $'°) to a city missionary, was next considered.t.L.H.Davidson asked if there had been a ci ¥ missionary during the past year, and if xOt, to whom had the money been paid to ?\u2018His Lordship said that there hal been no city missionary and the money kad not been 1 expended.Mr.Davidson then contended that it should not have been entar~d, but the difficulty was obviated by adding the words \u2018for the ensuing year.The following clause was next considered : That in view of the very limit-d means of the widow of the late Major Hi.am Mills, she be paid an allowance of $15) ver annum, payable quarterly during her lifetime, out of the following wunds: 375 out of the Sust:ntation Fund, acd $75 out of the Superannuation und.Mr.S.Bethune movcd that the clause be alopted.Mr.L.H.David«on objr>!2d, as one of the trustees, on the groundthat the £ustentation Fand had been raised by representations to the public that it was only to be expended in aid of old and enfeebled ministers and not In aid of any individual however deserving, He held that by slonting the clause they wou'd be roting i'legaily and laying down a very dangerous precedent.Mr.John Crawford thought that there was a discretionary power vested in the Synod, and though he azreed with Mr.Davidson as far as piinciple was concerned, he thought-a wholesome exercise of this discretionary power might be exercised in the present case.Mr.F.W.Thomas, a.i>r referring to the numerous chatit\u2019es and liberal b-oquests of the late Major Mills, referred to the fact that McGill University, which hed received a donation, made a grant to the widow of Major Mills, and he thought it would be only fitting for the Synod to do so to.Mr.L.H.Davidson said he simply desir: 1 to have his pro.est entered as a trustee, in order that he might be relieved from any responsibility in the matte=.Mr.Davidson\u2019s protest was accordingly entered, and the clause then unanimously adopted.Mr.S.Bethune then moved, .seconded by Rev.Canon Carmichae!, that the Treasurer\u2019s statement annexed to the Executive Commitcuce*s report be adopted.MTSSION WORK.Mr.Thos.White, M.P., said that before the report was adopted he wished to call the attention of the Synod to the fact that while the contributions in the city towa:ds the mission fund had largely increased during the past year, the country contributions had rather decreased than increased.One of the principal objections of sc ne people in the city towards contributing to the fund was that in their opinion not as much was done by the country as might be done.For instance in the Deanery of Bedford there were 571 families, of which 493 were subscribers and of this number 107 families only contributed $l each, 98 32; 36 $3; 47 $4; and 102 families $5 each, and the same trouble existed in some of the other deaneries.He thought that a great deal more might be done by the deaneries towards placing tneir ministers on a proper footing, and said that they might rest assured that the city would do its part, on condition, however, that the people who received the benefits of the missionary should contribute more towards the support of the work.(Applause.) Rev.Mr.Brown suggested that a deputation of laymen should be appointed to visit the different parishes on the matter Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay said he was at a loss to understand how Mr.White had arrived at his conclusions.He contended that the figures furnished by Mr.White were altogether defective.The total amount contributed by the Deanery of Bedford, amounted to $25,0 ) a year.Andhe thought it would be very wrong tolet it go forth, that those who contributed so liberally were not contributing enough.He held that there was no part of the diocese that contributed so largely to the church as the Eastern Townships.Mr.White said he had only referred to the amount contributed to the mission fund, and notwithstanding what the Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay might say the fact still remained that there were 107 tamiliesin the Deanery of Bedford that contributed only $1 each to the mission work.Rev.Rural Dean Lindsay said that the statistics had been carefully prepared and the figures were correct.He considered that the people had not yet been taught how to contribute.Mr.Thos.White, M.P., said he was dealing simply with the missions and not the deaneries or rectories, and he contended that the missions were not doing as well as they might.And in his opinion they would never be better as long as the ministers said that they were doing all that they could.Rura* Dean [Mussen was of opinion that as far as the deaneries were concerned, they all did very well, and each family in the parish contributed something.Mr.F.W.Thomas said that the fact remained that while the city contributions had increased the contributions from the country had decreased, aud he thought this should not be so.Mr.L.H.Davidson said that in his opinion their country friends made this mistake, that while thinking of the amount contributed for all purposes, they forgot to think of the relative support per family tewards the support ofthe church\u2019s werk outside of each particular parish.Mr.John Crawford questioned the propriety of comparing the city and country, as he thought it should be rsmembered.that the circumstances of each were different, and the financial position of the residents of the city much better than those in the country.Mr.W.Hackwell said he wished some of the city ministers and laymen would come out to the country and see the hardship they had to put up with.Tue Treasurer\u2019s report was then adepted.THE DIOCESE OF HURON\u2019S GREETING.His Lordship Bishop Bond here read the following message that he had just received: LONDON, Ont, June 20th.To the Synod of the Diocese of Montreal : The Bishop and Synod of the Diocese of Huron, in session assembled, reciprocates most heartily vour fraternal greeting, and earnestly pray for the Divine blessing upon the work in which you are engaged.BISHOP OF HURON.The message was received with applause by the members of Synod.A BIOCESAN TEMPERANCE SOCIETY.Mr.L H.Davidson then moved, that in order the more effectually to bring to bear the influence of the church upon the great evil of intemperance, it is desirable that a Diocesan Society, en the lines and principles of The Church of England Temperance Society, in the Mother Church, should be forthwith organized for this Diocese of Montreal.That a committee be named to prepare a constitution based upon the principles laid d wn as the basis of The Church of England Temperance Society, and to nut the society into operation as soon as possible.Rev.Canon Carmichael, in seconding the resolution, said he would have been more in favor of a Diocesan Total Abstinence Society, but still he took great pleasure in seconding the resolution.The motion was carried unanimously, and His Lordship named a committee composed of Mr.LH.Davidson (Convener), Rev.Canon Carmichael, and several others to act on the matter.THE ELECTION OF OFFICERS.His Lordship then read the report of the serutineers on the elections, which showed the following results :\u2014 DIOCESAN COURT.Rev.Canon Déwidson, Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay, Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, Rev.Canon Ellegood, Rev.Canon Henderson, Rev.Archdeacon Lonsdell, Rev.Canon Norman, Venerable Archdeacon Leach, Rev.Canon Carmichael, Rev.Canon Johnson, Rev.Canon DuVernet, Rev.Rural Dean Mussen, Rev.Canon Anderson, Rev.J.Constantine, Rev.Archdeacon Evans.EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.Rev.Archdeacon Lindsay, Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, Rev.Archdeacon Evans, Rev.Rural Dean Mussen, Rev.Archdeacon Lonsdell, Rev.Canon Norman, Rev.Rural Dean Lindsay, Rev.Canon Carmichael, Rev.Canon Davidson, Rev.Canon Ellegood, Rev.Canon Robinson, Rev.Wx L.Mills, Rev.Rural Dean Rollit, Rev.Canon Anderson, Rev.J.8, Stone, Messrs.S.Bethune, Q.C., F.W.Thomas, Thos.\u2018White, M.P., L.H.Davidson, A.F.Gault, Chas, Garth, R.P.Hannaford, Thos.Simpson, W.Drake, Joel C.Baker, R.Evans, T.P.Butler, L.G.Macdonald, Ron.W.W.Lynch, W.R.Salter.;

(b) that she possesses such characteiistiics as in the judgment of the persons testifying fit her for atleast one of the branches of duty above defined.Such testimonials shall be signed by one presbyter of the church and by five lay communicants, of whom two shall be men and three women.The Bishop shall also sacisfy himself that the applicant has had an adequate preparation for her work, both technical and religious.which preparation shall have covered at least one year.4.No deaconess shall work officially in this diocese without the exnress authority in writing of the bishop of ths diocese.5.A deaconess may at any time resign her office to the ecclesiastical authority from which she received it, but no deaconess having once given up the commission shall be re-appointed, unless in the judgment of the bishop such resignation was for weighty causes.6.A deaconess may be transferred from this diocese to another by letters dismissing, upon request of the bishop of the diocese to which she is transferred.7.In case of deaconesses joining together in one community the constitution rules and overnment thereof shall first be submitted o and approved by the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, and shall be in harmony with the usuges of this church and the principles of the nook of Common Prayer.8 No manual shall be used by any such community unless it be submitted to the shop.9.No deaconess shall be sent to any parish or mission without the consent of the incumbent of said parish or mission, Verv Rev.Dean Baldwin, in moving the adoption of the resolution, said that one ofthe great signs of the mighty life and earnestness that was at present pervading the church was that a disposition was shown to use evel v member of the c'iurch in its work.Woman\u2019s work especially had risen to an immense degree of importance, and was becoming more valued every day.(Apolanse.) The great work that woman had doue in India was beyond all praise, and she had done and was doinga work that no man could do.Something had to be done as regarded their domestic missions, and in every par.sh there was work to be done that could on'y be successfully periormed by women, such as the case of contagious diseases, which prevailed in the city, and it pained him to say that in several instances their people had 10 .call in the services of the sisters of the Roman Catholic Church simply because noone else could baz found to attend totheir wants.No one, he said, could have a stronger dislike toanything approaching the nature of a Sisterhood, but while ignoring tue one he would choose the other, and whilst strongly opposed to the one as anti-scriptural, he would heartily give his support to what he had proposed as alike in accordance with the word of God and the precious traths of the English Churéh.Mr.L.H, Davidson, ia seconding the motion, said tliat he regarded the movement as oneo\u2019 the signs of the times and that in reusing 17 avail themselves of the services of women in the past they had done wrong.Me agreed with the Dean in opposition to any thing like a permanent life vow and thought | that the members shold be free to come and free to go.(Applause.) He also agreed that they shov'd be under the control of the Bishop and the Diocese, and thought that every provisien had been ,made in the Canon for any danger that migat avise.Rev.Aruhur French took exception to the rema\u201dksof Very Rev.Dean Baldwin regarding Sisterhoods.the members of whom he thought hau done a noble work in the past in connection with the Church of England at home.Rev.Canon Norman thought that Rev.Mr.French had misunderstood the remarks of the Dean, who in his opinion had intended to refersimp'y to the sisters of the Church of Rome.He had given the subject now before them a great deal of attention and had arrived at an opinion entirely in accord with the Dean.He considered that an order of deaconesses was in accordance with scripture and had existed in olden times until stifled by the Church of Rome.He was cutirely opposed to life vows and anything like the imitation of a sisterhood,as he was convinced that a voluntary vow was the most natural.He was also opposed to the members forming independent communities, but thought that they should be responsible to the bishop.He thought that a great good might be done in future with the aid of womea.Very Rev.Dean Baldwin, in answer to Rev.Mr.French, said he did not wish to be understood as depreciating the self-sacrificing work ofthe members of the sisterhood.He could appreciate the seli-sacrifice of the nuns of Rome; he could honor them although he might differ from them in their principles.Bu he was opposed to a system of sisterhood first, because they took life vows, which he held were utterly unscriptural, and also because he disliked anything that savored o Rome.(Applause.) ; The motion and canon were then unanim- Ously adopted.DECEASED MEMBERS.Mr.Thos.White moved, seconded by Rev.Canon Carmichael, That this Synod bowing with prayerful submission to the inscrutable Providence of Almighty God in the removal by death of WE.Scott, M.D., N.S.Whitney, M.H.Sanborn, and W.B.Simpson, for many years members of this body, desires to express its sense of the great less which the church in this diocese has sustained by their death, its appreciation of the earnestness and Christian devotion which marked them in all the relations of life, and its profound sympathy and condolence with the bereaved families in their sad loss.; That a copy of this resolution be communicated to the families of the deceased.The motion was carried unanimously.His Lordship named a committee, consisting of Rev.Canon Anderson, Hon.Judge Armstrong, Dean Baldwin, Messrs.Bethune and White, to draft a resolution on the death of the late Archbishop of Canterbury.THE REVISED TESTAMENT.On motion of Dean Baldwin, seconded by Rev.Canon Norman, it was resolved\u2014 That this Synod, recognizing the great importance of New Testament revision, and the necessity that existed for its speedy accomplishment in order that the authorized translation might more faithtully represent the original Greek and meet all the demands which a reasonable criticism might exact, desires to express to the English and American Board of Revisors its hearty appreciation and grateful recognition of their most learned and valued services, and while not committing jtself to the approval of every individual alteration, accepts the result of their labors as a noble triumph of profound scholarship and chastened zeal.On motion of Chancellor Bethune, seconded by Rev.Canon Davidson, the report of the Committee®on Canons was adopted and it was resolved : That \u2018ix hundred copies of the revised edition of the Constitution, the Rules of Order, Canons, Rules and Regulations of this Synod, submitted by the Committee on Canons, be printed, and that a copy be furnished to each member of Synod.A motion by the Rev.Canon Davidson and an amendment by Rev.Archdeacon Evans regarding the Superannuation Fund was,after some discussion, on motion of Mr.Thomas White, M.P., referred to the Committee on the Superannuation Fund.ENVELOPE COLLECTION.Rev.Canon Carmichael then moved, seconded by Mr.L.H.Davidson, Co That this Synod endorse the principle of collecting for the Mission Fund of the Diocese by envelope offerings in the church, during divine service, and recommends the adoption of the system wherever practicable.That the Lord Bishop be requested to set apart a special day or days to be known as \u201cMission Sunday,\u201d when such offerings might be made.That His Lordship appoint a commitee to report at this Synod as to the means whereby sueh day or days may be made most useful to the diocese.;

the amount required : the purposes to which the subscriptions to be obtained will be applied, and the names of the officers speclaliy in charge of the work.That in every case in which such authorization shall be given by the bishop the person authorized to collect shall be required to keep an accurate and detailed account of each and all subscriptions and of any condition in regard thereto, and also a full and particular account of the expenditures incurred and cha-geable aga'nst said subscriptions; and that yearly, or on the completion of any tour or collecting trip so authorized, * full account in the foregoing particulars with a list of the subscribers and amount of subscriptions be rendered to the Lord Bishop of the diocese, showing also the actuel balance paid over to, or realized for the special object to be aided, and signed by the clergyman or other collector and by the wardens of the parish or mission.That the Lord Bishop be respectfully requested to lay year by year before this Synod a list of authorizations so granted by him, to submit them w.th the statements and accounts herein before referred to in order that the same may be duly audited and appear of record in the diocesan reports.On motion of Mr.Hutton i$ was resolved that the anplication of the Bishop of Algoma be referred to the committee on the widows and orphans und.On motion of Mr.Hutton, seconded by Mr.Garth, it was resolved, That the Chancellor, Treasu er and Secretary with the Rev.Canon Norman and Mr.C.Garth be a committee to make arrongements for the meeti ng of the Provincial Synod.Rural Dean Rollit moved That the amendment of the Canon on Rural Deans, passed at the 21st session, and printed on page 149, be confirmed, viz.: That the con stitution be amended by striking out the word \u2018\u2018 both\u201d from the second clause of the chapter on \u2018Rural Deans,\u201d on paze 1 (9 of eighteenth report of this Synod, and inserting in its stead the words *\u2018 the licensed clergy.\u201d Carr:ed.Very Rev.Dean Baldwin moved, scconded by Mr.L.H.Davidson, that the Canon on Superaanuation be amended by the addition of he following clause: That any clergyman who may be entitled to a fixed pension either through the Society for the Propagation ef the Gospel, or irom the Clergy Reserves, or otherwise, shall not be permitted to rank upon this sand, except to the extent of the deficiency, if any, between the pension s0 received and the sum to which he would have been entitled otherwise under the Canon, and on compliance with the requirements of the Canon as to subscriptions aud collections.Caviied.THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY.Rev.Canon Anderson reported, on behalf of the committee apvoointed to drait a rese- lution on the death of the late Archbishop of Canterbury, that the following resolution had been framed : Tuat the Synod of the Diocese of Montreal cannot permit this session to pass over without expressiag its deep sense of the great loss the wholo Church of England has sustained in the death of His Grace the late Most Rev.Archbishop of Canterbury, Archibald Tait, D.D.His eminent services and great personal worth.his lorty sense of duty, have elicited admiration, and won or him a name and fame which will be co-extensive with the empire itself.On motion of Rev.Canon Anderson, seconded by Hon.Judge Armstrong, the resolution Was unanimously carried.THE LATE REV.MR.ROBINSON.On motion of Rev.Archdeacon Evans, sce- onded by Rev.Rural Dean Mussen, it was re- solved,\u2014 Almighty God, in hisinscrutable wisdom, having called from his labors and taken unto Himself, one who was a brother among us, the Rev.Gco.C.Robinson, Rural Dean of St.Andrews, the members of this Synod do now place upon record their appreciation of his self-denying missionary zeal and devotion which characterized his life for so many years.The second day\u2019s proceedings were then brought to a termination with the benediction by His Lordship, and the Synod then ad- Jjourned until this morning.Ir seems impossible that a remedy made of the common, simple plants as Hops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &c., should make so many and such greatcures as Hop Bitters do; but when old and oung, rich and poor, pastor and docjor, awyer and editor, all testify to having been cured by them, vou must Lehieve an try them yourself, and doubt no longer.ON THIRTY DAYS\u2019 TRIAL- TrE Vouraio Berr Co., Marshall, Mich., will send Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Electro- Voltaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guarantee ing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014Norisk is incurred, as thirty days rial is allowed.J.RIELLF, Land Surveyor, 146 ST.JAMES STREET, GIBBONS & McNAB, Barristers and Attornies\u201d OEFIC à Corner Richmond and Carling Streets LONDON, ONT.Gzo.MoNas.2 Gro.C.GisroNs | January 3 YES!

made by an American contemporary we learn that in the United States last year 121 criminals were hanged according to law, and that no less than 117 wretches were lynched\u2014namely 50 in the north and 67 in the south.In addition to this it is stated that about five out of every six of the murderers who were duly tried, convicted and sentenced to death subsequently escaped the gallows, by legal quibbles, the use of money or by political influence.This is a truly lamentable state of affairs ; but the most distressing feature of it all is that things appear to be becoming worse instead of better.Not a day passes but we hear of lynchings.Our despatches arc filled with the particulars of such sutrages.Here arc a few cases reported within the last few days.In Enterprise, Miss.,, a mob hanged a young negru named Harris without the benefit of judge or jury in this way :\u2014 \u201cThey quietly made their way to the jail, which was but slightly guarded.It took but a few moments to overpower the turnkey and b:at in the cell doors.Harris was quickly secured, and in spite of his piteous appeals for mercy was taken in charge by the mob, They conducted him to the railroad bridge but a short distance away, and soon the negro\u2019s life- le:s body was dangling at the end of a gwaying rope.\u201d A despatch from San Antonio, Texas, reports another case of double lynching in these words :\u2014\u201c Information from Cotulla is te the effect that the carcasses of a negro and a Mexican were found hanging in La Salle County.The negro was minus head and lower limbs, but was recognized as Joe Anderson, a notorious thief.\u201d Here is another case, which took place in the town of Sheboygan, Michigan, a State in which, by law, there is no such thing as capital punishment :\u2014* Warner, a sailor, accused of assaulting and stabbing an eight-year-old girl at Sheboygan, Mich., was taken from jail and hanged by a mob.He asserted his innocence to the last.\u201d Again, from Dallas, Texas, we are informed that \u201cHenry Brock, a notorious thief and counterfeiter, was hanged near Cotulla thie morning by a party of lynchers.\u201d Once more, from Brinkley, Ark., the news comes that \u201cat midnight a mob, chiefly composed of white men working on Major Palmer\u2019s plantation, near here, took Grant Granville (colored) from the county officers and hanged him to a tree till he was dead.Granville had murdered a white man.\u201d From the State of Alabama comes word to the effect that a man named Jordan Corbin was taken from prison and hanged by a mob.These few cases are but the record of two days.They indicate that the entire criminal system of the United States is rotten to the core in practice, however sound it may be in principle.The enraged populace are driven to commit these crimes simply because juries will not discharge their duties fairly, fearlessly and honestly.Asa New York paper says, juries can no longer be trusted.\u201cThe acquittal of Congressman Thompson, after perpetrating a deliberate homicide, by a jury in Harrodsburg, Ky., and the immediately preceding acquittal of Dukes, the Pennsylvania Assemblyman, who has since paid the penalty of his infamous conduct aud character at the hands of a private vendetta, were notable indications that the law under the interpretation of the ordinary jury is no longer efficient for the protection of life from individual appeal to summary violence, Unless such events shall have the effect of shocking public sentiment into a reform of the clements of which juries are composed, that system must surely and speedily go to pieces.\u201d J RINE TEST RE AN LTE] DEATH JF BISHOP COLENSO.The death of Bishop Colenso, which is announced in our despatches, recalls at once to mind a controversy which, twenty-one years ago, made a great commotion in the Christian world, in which bishop of the Church of England was | brated fr found taking a strong stand against the authenticity of the Pentateuch.The deceased bishop was born in 1814 and graduated as second wrangler at Cambridge.He became eminent for his scholarship; and was one of #%e masters of Harrow School fror- 1538 to 1842, and afterwards for fo«F years a tutor at St.John\u2019s Colless Cambridge.In 1846 he became th- rector of a Norfolk parish, snd in 1854 first Bishop of Natal.Prior ;0 this appointiment, he had become cele- his well-known works on #gebra and Arithmetic, but the fame of these soon became usignificant in comparison with that of his controversial writings.Attention was first called to the peculiar views he held by the dedication of a volume of sermons to the Rev.Mr.Maurice, at a time when that gentleman was in disgrace with the orthodox section of the Christian world.In 1861 his letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury in regard to converts from heathenism created a general sensation.In it he reccommended that such converts, when they had several wives, should not be forced to put all except one away.This view of the matter was loudly condemned by the clergy generally, but in 1862 he gave them much more serious reason to be dissatisfied with him by publishing \u201cThe Pentateuch and the Book of Joshua critically examined,\u201d in which he undertook to prove that these books, as they stand, were not the products of the age to which they were generally assigned or of the authors whose pames they bear.He also questioned their historical accuracy.Colenso was fiercely attacked for this work and was declared by his Metropolitan, the Bishop of Cape Town, to be deposed from his See,but on appeal to the Privy Council the deposition \"was declared null and void.Since then Bishop Colense has chiefly been brought into notice as the advocate of the rights of the Zulus and other African tribes against the injustice of the white man.He was a man of benevolent character and blameless life, and modern thinkers, even among the clergy, have advanced so far beyond the opinions which he held, that the fierce controversy of which his writings were the cause would not new be remembered by the majority of people but for the tidings of his death.ne THE MERCHANT'S BANK MEETING.The annual meeting of a corporation whose assets foot up twenty millions of dollars, is an event of no slight importance, While the report of the Merchant\u2019s Bank has been in the hands of the shareholders for the past two weeks, the explanations of the General Manager were looked forward to with a large amount of interest.All who have transactions with our banking institutions, and all who share the responsibility of their management, will appreciate the thoroughly practical character of Mr.Hague\u2019s remarks, While Mr.Smithers dealt very \u2018ably and impartially with some features of the bank\u2019s relations with the outer world, Mr.Hague treats no less successfully of other features which called for the candid criticism and advice which the General Manager of so large an institution was so well fitted to offer, not merely to those with whom his position brings him in contact, but -to customers of all other banking institutions.Mr.Hague dwells upon the abuse of the credit system, explaining how it embarrasses both the lending bank and the borrowing customer, extending its evil effects in an ever widening circle.His remarks upon the \u201ceternal vigilance\u2019 which is the price of successful lending will be appreciated by brother managers and carry conviction to the minds of all who are capable of comprehending the responsibilities of those great monetary institutions without whose support and active assistance the wheels of commerce could not revolve.We notice that Mr.Hague favors the establishment of a sort of Banking Union for regulating the rates of discount, interest and fexchange\u2014a proposition which the banks\u2019 customers may not regard with as much complaisance as some of the bank managers will probably do.Mr.Hague\u2019s suggestions on the insolvent law, the Pacific railway, ete, are all of the practical character which is stamped upon his address as a whole.The report of the proceedings, which we publish in another column, will repay careful perusal.INTERESTING TO SPORTSMEN.The facts stated in the following telegram to the HErALD will, no doubt, interest some Montreal gentlemen who have been anxious to secure fishing privileges on the rivers which the New Brunswick government offered for sale yesterday.When it is considered that the privilege was sold for a single year it must be conceded that fancy prices have been paid.From a few streams the Government has realized $3,435.Our Fredericton correspondent telegraphs as follows :\u2014 \u201c The.right of fishing [with the rod only] on the principal rivers of New Brunswick, was offered for competition to-day at the Crowa Land office.The licenses are good tor one year.There was a large number of fishermen present.The following is the result :\u2014 \u201cNo.1, from Toad Brook to Indian Brook on the Restigouche, A.L.Light, [represented by Mr.Clinch, of St.John] ; $825.\u201cNo.2, from Indian Brook to Tracy Brook, Restigouche, to Dr.A.L.Mason, New York, one of the directors of the Restigouche Fishing Club ; $500.\u201cNo.3, Restigouche, H.R.Ranney, St.John ; $600.\u201c Kedgwick River, H.V.Habersham, Savannah, Ga; $510.\u201c No.1, Nepisiguit River, J.W.Nicholson, St.John, $300; No.2.Nepisiguit River, J.W.Nicholson, St.John ; $360.A \u2014 eae.a ~~.« Upsalquitch River, from the Falls up ; H.V.Habersham, Savannah ; $200.\u2018Jacquet River, Henry R.Ranney, St.John ; $130.Total, $3,435.\u2018 There will be another sale of fishing lots next Wednesday.One of our citizens has been commissioned by a New York party to secure specified privileges regardless of cost.The upset price on the Kedgwick was placed to-day at $1,000, but as there were no bidders at this price, it was reduced to $500 aud knocked down to Mr.Habersham for $519.The competition was 30 sharp that opponents insisted on the purchase money being paid down by the successful competitors before the next sale was proceeded with.A number of American and other sporting gentlemen are here.A report is current that there is a representative of Vanderbilt here in connection with the sale.Mrs.Habersham and Mrs.Dr.Mason are now encamped with a party on the Restigouche.\u201d WE OBSERVE with much satisfaction that the people of St.John, N.B., have been successful in establishing more rapid communication between their city and Boston than would have heretofore been deemed possible.The railway time between St.John and Boston has been reduced from twenty-four to fifteen hours, an improvement so great that we need not enlarge upon it.Nine hours, the saving in time effected, is a very large part of a day of human life and might make or mar a man or a firm.The announcement, with regard to Boston, at once suggests the idea whether something might not be done to obtain more rapid railway transit between St.John and Montreal, At present the time from St.John to Montreal, by the Intercolonial, is nominally thirty-four and a half hours, but, practically, thirty-five hours or more.By the St.John and Maine, the Maine Central and the Grand Trunk, the time nominally is thirty-three hours.We think that this time might easily be reduced to twenty-three hours, and that the fast train to Boston affords a ready means of accomplishing this.At present the passenger who leaves St.John y the western route, bound to Montreal, takes his departure at 9 p.m.He reaches Danville Junction at 11.30 a.m.and has to remain there nearly four hours before the Grand Trunk train from Portland comes to pick him up.When he begins to journey towards Montreal he finds that he has to stop an hour and a half at Island Pond, and two or some times three hours at Richmond ; so that he hardly ever reaches Montreal earlier than 7 a.m., or 34 hours from St.John.The fast St.John express now goes from Waterville to Portland via Augusta, but there seems to be no reason why it should not go wie Danville Junction.If it did, a passenger who left St.John at 7 a.m.would be at Danville Junction at about 5.20 p.m.If, therefore, the Grand Trunk train which now leaves Portland at 130 p.m.would postpone its departure until 4.30 p.m., it would enable passengers from New Brunswick, who would come to Danville Junction by the fast express to connect, and to reach Montreal at six next morning, thus reducing the time between St.John and Montreal to 23 hours.No one will pretend that 135 hours is not abundantly sufficient for the run from Portland to Montreal; for the present running time, including extraordinary stops, is far better than that.All that is needed is to reduce the detentions at Island Pond and Richmond to reasonable limits, and to make the connection above indicated, to bring St.John, N.B., and Montreal within 23 hours of each other.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 REFERRING to the Canadian cattle trade in England, the London correspondent of the Toronto Globe remarks :\u2014\u201cI had a conversation to-day with Mr.G.PF.Frankland, of Teronto, respecting the Canadian cattle trade.Mr.Frankland fully confirms all I have previously said as to the prospects of the trade this season.Moreover he assures me that there is a very appreciable improvement in the quality of the cattle being sent over from the Dominion, They are decidedly superior ta the consignments in previous ears, and now rank on quite the same evel as the best United States beasts.Mr, Frankland, however, still complains, and I think with justice, of the restrictions put upon the trade by the English authorities.Of course some of those rules are absolutely necessary to effectually prevent the introduction of disease.But of others this cannot be said.As it is impossible to send cattle from London to the provincial markets, some consignments to Mr.Frankland have been shipped by his partner, Mr.Morse, to Bristol.But here the authorities will not permit any cattle to enter Somersetshire unless the shipper can declare that he has had them in his possession on English soil for fourteen days.A few days back Mr.Frankland sold some beasts at thd market in this ciety, but at the close of the day buyers found they could not remove them, owing to the regulation to which I have just referred.A considerable pecuniary loss was ef course the result.\u2018It is difficult to see on what grounds such an arbitrary rule can be justified.Mr.Frankland will remain in this country some little time longer to receive several more large consignments during the season.\u201d \u2018 Most PEOPLE are probably not aware that for che past eight or ten years a rather extensive business has been carried on in the shipment of hacmatac knees for ship building from Ontario to the States of Maine and Massachusetts.Maine has been so long looked upon as a land of inexhaustible forests, that it is with surprise we learn that the fine ships of which its people \u2018are so proud could not be built but forthe assistance of Canada.There are plenty of small knees in Maine, but large knees of 8 inehes and upwards are very scarce, and those that exist are in laces not easily reached.Among the Bret to operate in the shipment of knees to Maine was Mr.J.8.Edgerley, of Fox Meade, Ont., although a Maine man.There are eight or nine persons now engaged in the business.Most of the knees go to Bath, and the cost of carrying them over the 1,100 miles of railway between the place where they are cut ard Bath is $85 a car, or about $2 each.The price at Bath varies from $7 to $8 and $9 each, so that ship knees are, by no means, cheap.During the present summer it is expected that large shipments of knees will be made to Maine from 3 21-10.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 D DAILY (COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, THURSDAY, © 1\" 21 YB find the followingfin a Scotch paper that came out by the last mail \u2014\u201c About midnight on Saturday two steamers conveying large quantities of fresh and kippered herrings arrived at the western terminus of the Highland Railway.The fish was consigned to the London markets, and the instructions were to have it at once conveyed to its destination.About one o\u2019clock Sunday morning, however, the residents of Strome assembled in large numbers and protested against the sanctity of the Sabbath being thus invaded.They took possession of the pier and railway property, resisted the efforts of the police to dislodge them, and refused to permit the removal of the fish during canonical hours.\u201d No doubt the people were sincere in acting as they did, but it does seem a contradiction, that while it was thought wrong to move goods on the Sabbath, there was no wrong in fighting on the Lord\u2019s day.\u2014_\u2014 YESTERDAY Trinity Church was the scene of a fashionable wedding between Mr.P.A.Crossby, Manager of the Dominion Type Foundry, and Miss Ellen Winifred Carruthers, a relation of Dr.Perrigo, of this city, Miss Jennie Robertson acting as bridesmaid and Mr.William J.Jarvis as groomsman.The rector of the parish, the Rev.W.L.Mills, was the officiating clergyman.On the entering of the wedding party Mendelssohn\u2019s Wedding March was appropriately played by the organist, Mr.F.W.Mills.The happy couple left for New York on the conclusion of the ceremony.They have our best wishes.JUNK DEALERS everywhere will be interested in the announcement that the Imperial Government is calling for tenders for H.M.S.\u201cCharybdis.\u201d The Government, \u2018by the way, is probably not aware that Mr.Senecal has not yet completed the purchase of the Allan line of steamers; so that until this event has transpired it is difficult to discover where the capital is to come from to buy so expensive a craft as the \u201c Charybdis,\u201d unless the junk men come to the front.THE annual report of the Superintendent of Education of the Province of Quebec for the year ¥882 has just been issued.From the figures given we learn that there are in the province 4,440 schools; that the number of pupils on the rolls is 236,699; and the average attendance, 180,463.YESTERDAY the General Manager of the G.N.W.Telegraph Company received from London the following cablegram which he has placed at the disposal of the public:\u2014\u201c The lacrosse team are all well.They played at Leicester on Monday before a very large crowd with great success.\u201d À DESPATCH from London to a Dublin paper

carried forward to next À (17) CPE 8,146 60 $897,113 16 The Direetors in presenting the above statement, which they trust will be accepted as satisfactory, beg to report that during the year the bank sustained a severe loss In the decease of its late lamented president, Sir Hugh Allan, by whom the Bank was originally founded, and who had sustained the responsibilities ofa director continuously for a period of twenty years.The energy, enterprise and ability of the late president in connection with the great shipping and commercial enterprises of the Dominion are so well known that no special mention of them is needful here.His decease, which was unexpected, took place in Scotland, shortly after he had spent some time in negociations connected with the English arrangements of the Bank, so that he may be said to have passed away in the midst of active service for the institution.After a fitting interval, during which the duties of the president were carefully fulfilled by Mr.Robert Anderson, the vice-president, Mr.Andrew Allan was appointed to the vacant office, under the provisions of the Banking Act of the ominion.Mr.Benny, whe was elected at the last annual meeting, havin detlined to serve, the directors appointe the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott in his stead.The vacancy created by the death of the president was filled by the appointment of Mr.John Duncan.The year just closed was marked by very great activity at its commencement, succeeded by a period of curtailment and monetary pressure towards its close.Symptoms of unhealthy expansion were generally manifest last year, both in the extension of buildings for manufacturing purposes, and also in the imperts of the products of other countries.Your directors have earefully watched the course of commercial affairs, and have taken such measures from time to time as were necessary to protect the interests of the bank, .They have endeavored, amidst increas- Ing monetary pressure, to discriminate carefully between the various transactions brought before them, and to note the first indications of an inflated or speculative style of business in the operations of their customers, Their object has been to build Up a sound and safe connection, and they believe the business of the bank has shown a steady improvement in quality, notwithstanding manifestations of unsound- Less in various quarters, and the com- tmencement of what may prove to be, un- ©33 care is exercised, a process of com- pot deterioration in the country gen- rally, > pocial attention has been devoted to the branches in the N orth-West, where a severe reaction set in during the winter.Notwithstanding the financial embarrass.ents that ensued, it is gratifying to repart that very few casualties have overtaken the bank.Improvement has now set in.The country is being rapidl opened up by the Canadian Pacific rail- Way and its connections.A large immigration of a highly satisfactory character Is taking place; and it is believed that business and values will henceforth rest OR & more satisfactory basis than formerly.During the year the bank received, with great regret, an intimation from Mr.Mac- Arthur, of Winnipeg, that he had decided to retire from the position he had occupied as Manager of the Branch there from Us commencement.Your directors have marked their sense of the great value of - services by the presentation of a suit- i stan monial; and they have pleasure sented 8 I.MacArthur has con- Tires 0 accept the position of a local the o of the bank for the business of se Ori West generally, and has for me time been acting in that capacity.a The annual review of the overdue bills, tho in liquidation and properties of vis, nk has been made, and large sums 3 en off for such items as had assumed ; eterminate position by the winding up eb- \u2018I had the honor of being elected Presiamounts were charged as customary to the Contingent fund.Full provision has been made for the casualties of the year, and for all remaining doubtful assets, by setting apart from the profits a sum sufficient to make up the Contingent fund to $255,000.The board have steadily kept i1 view the importance of clearing the books of all real estate matters, and, with tae energetic co-operation of the officers of the bank, they have succeeded in disposing of properties during the year to the amount of $186,000.This leaves the item of real estate $159,000.The working of the real estate account for the last three years is as follows :\u2014 Be arn May, Lot \u201ceee tiene Chee 3 441,748 yU10 Balance 31st May, 1882.,.$315,782 Sold during the year eerie.aa fk Balance 31st May, 1883.$150,682 Your board thought it desirable some years ago to form a supplementary guarantee fund for the officers of the bank, and voted small sums from time to time as a foundation for it.The fund has, so far, been invested in the stock of the bank, and was sufficient to purchase 67 shares.This year the sum of $4,000 has been set aside, so as to enable the holding to be increased to 100 shares The directors trust this will meet with the approbation of the stockholders.Experience having proved that the funds of the bank could be employed with as much net profit in New York as in Chicago, and with d'minished risks, the branch in the latter city has been closed.New branches have been opened at Regina, the Feat of Government of the new

satisfaction they have had in the zealand energy with which the various officers of the bank, from the highest to the lowest, have performed their duties, and to state that, as an incentive to renewed exertions, they have appropriated a sufficient sum from the profits of the year to provide for a bonus on their salaries.The whole respectfully submitted, ANDREW ALLAN, President, \u2014 GENERAL

and it has brought with it, in many quarters, its usual accompaniment of commercial trouble.For, gentlemen, I speak from long conviction in saying that the credit system\u2014 although the very life of both commerce and banking\u2014is sometimes very seriously abused in Canada.There has been, in various quarters, an entire lack of pru- deuce and consideration of circumstances, both with regard to the present standing of customers and their antecedents; leading to the giving of credit to far larger amounts than the case warranted.Customers, also, notwithstanding excuses urged (such as importunity of travellers, &c.,) are often equally blamable in taking credit, and buying goods to an amount far beyond their ability to meet within a reasonable time.The responsibilities involved in taking credit are often entirely overlooked, \u2014 responsibility to keep well insured for example.If there is a brisk season, it is taken for granted it will always last.No provision 13 made for contingencies, or changes; for a reverse of trade, or for altered circumstances, But reverses and changes are art of the ordinary contingencies of life.They come inevitably after a time.Then, those who are unprepared are found with heavy stocks of goods they cannot sell, book debts they cannot collect, and engagements they cannot meet\u2014 possibly also with lots of real estate, bought also on credit, the payments on which are coming due simultaneously with payments for merchandise, all finally leading te entanglement and embarrassment.Now, it may not strike you as it does me, but the simple fact is, that the burden of most of this want of prudence falls upon the banks.It is sometimes said that the banks have themselves to blame for many of the troubles that befall themselves and their customers.This is perfectly true.Bankers are, no doubt, often to blame for being good natured, and for yielding to importunity.The fact is, we must make, up our minds to be blamed in any case.For my part, I would rather be blamed for refusing the accommodation which will do a customer harm, than for granting it, and doing him an injury thereby.(Hear, hear and applause).This is a question of the very first importance for bank stockholders.It is generally your money in reality, gentlemen, that is at stake when ever-crediting is being carried on.You are all, therefore, interested in diminishing this great evil.But so far as active steps are concerned, it is fer directors and bank officers to take measures to check it.In so doing, they have the real in ter- est of customers in view.I hold, indeed, that a judicious banker may often prevent his customers from making shipwreck of their business, if they will only listen to his advice, and limit credit within reasonable bounds.So far from being restive and sensitive under such advice, a prudent merchant will be glad to take all the hints he can get.And if the banker oes further and absolutely refuses to al- jo certain lines to be increased, the last thing a wise trader will do will be to endeavour to place the paper elsewhere, I need not say to you, however, that this is only too common a practice.But itis done at your risk, and sometimes at your expense.The risk of all this falls on bank stockholders, and they have to meet its consequences, occasionally in the most unpleasant shape possible.A prudent merchant, I repeat, will not seek accommodation in other quarters when a check is put upon the amount done on certain names.He will rather restrict his dealings with these customers, and in so doing he will generally save himself from loss, perhaps from failure.The practice of keeping two or three bank accounts is not a judicious one.I speak this after twenty years\u2019 experience.Itis only the very strongest houses that can afford to run the risk of it.It prevents the merchant having the benefit of the banker\u2019s information and the banker\u2019s judgment as to the amount of credit he is giving, This wholesome check being removed, credit is apt to be extended until that dangerous period is reached when accounts get entirely beyond control.In nine cases out of ten, when this transpires, the failure of the merchant himself is only à question of time.have long noted it, as a matter of fact, that in nearly every case of mercantile failure, two or three banking accounts are kept.Far, indeed, am I from saying that every merchant who discounts at mere than ene bank is in an unsound position.But I do say this\u2014that the practice leads to undue extension of credit; deprives a customer of the benefit of the banker\u2019s information and judgment; and leads indirectly to losses which may ultimately bring the merchant down.I am satisfied, from long years of observation, that many mercantile failures, and those of a large amount and importance, would have been, in all probability, prevented, if only one account had been kept.(Applause.) Itis generally an unreasonable amount of credit, given to a few persens, that causes a merchant\u2019s ruin.Now, if the paper of the amount is-likely to be noticed and a check imposed before much mischief is done.But if the paper is spread over two or three institutions, the amount is not so large as to excite special attention.The mischief then goes on unchecked until it is too late to be remedied.There is this further to be said, that parties who keep accounts with two or more banks have no claim on any of them when a time of pressure comes.Although aware that this strain of remark may be unpalatable, a sense of duty to the bank and its constituents leads me to take it up.The bank, let me say, can have no interest but in the welfare of its customers, and it would be a matter of pride and satisfaction to us all were the customers of this bank so dealt with, that they would avoid disasters, and continue in business steadily year after year; surviving the hard times that trouble us at intervals, and keeping accounts that were a source of equal satisfaction to themselves and to the bank.This I believe to be possible, if customers will give us their undivided confidence.The subject of credit is of the very essence of our business.We dispense credit ourselves through ager, addressed the meeting as follows :\u2014 fl nsolvent estates, the discharge of A.Ma = Gentlemen, \u2014It'; , source of satisfaction i our customers.If they are judicious, \u2018has been well maintained, amidst a com- Otherwise they trouble us and themselves There is much said just now of over- trading and overproduction.But over- trading rarely takes place except by abuse of credit.The same applies to overproduction.People rarely\u2014if ever\u2014over- produce when they are working on their own capital.It is by means of borrowed money, and high discounts that mischief is done.Excuse me, therefore, dwelling on it at such length.These remarks bear with force on the state of things which has prevailed during the past year.It'has been a year, as I have said, of Very considerable anxiety.Our discounts have been high, Every branch of business has been carried on with great enterprise and activity.Canada had a ood harvest, and our forests yielded well.his state of things always stimulates business, men are hopeful, and ready to buy and sell.They areready also to give and take credit.Promissory notes and bills of exchange always increase at such times, and the banks are heavily drawn upon for loans and discounts.Men are ready also to extend old enterprises and engage in new ones.There has been much of this, as you are aware.The extension of our cottor and woollen factories has been very great, and has absorbed very large amounts of capital.Railways have also absorbed immense sums.We have, in fact, been converting our floating into fixed capital at a very rapid rate.Hence the drain on eur deposits and the tightening of moneyg But it is to be noted that banking profits, so called (for all isnot gold that glitters), are generally very good at such a time as this.A note of caution, however, as to large profits is not out of place at present.They are the result of lending large amounts of money.Now you cannot lend additional sums of money without having additional risks, as well as additional interest.I took occasion, once, in this room, to call attention to the fact that all banks are in the habit of crediting interest before they really receive it.We take credit for profits while our risks are running.Bayt, gentlemen, I need not tell you that the Ultimate issue depends upon the gooduess of the loan.At the very time\u2019 when a bank is expanding its discounts, and swelling up its interest receivable, it may be preparing the way for disaster.'Indeed, it certainly will do so unless vigilance goes on increasing as loans expand, These observations are not theoretical, They gre gathered from Canadian experience.Two years before the difficulties of the Bank of Upper Canada begap, its profits mounted up to 25 per cent.But in that very year the seeds of its ruin were sown.The profits of all the banks were very heavy in the years preceding the great reverses of 1876 to 1879.There is no absolute necessity for a period of good rofits to be followed by reverses.Engh and Scotch experience proves the contrary.But there can be no question that such times are apt to disturb a banker\u2019s judgment.Vigilance is apt to be relaxed when profits swell up to large figures.But we never need to be so vigilant\u2014and I will even say suspiciously vigilant\u2014as in a time of heavy business and large profits.If we are vigilant we may see the elements of trouble beforehand and avoid them.Then we shall keep our profits, and go on adding to them.year by year, no matter how hard the times may Le.AU this, however, points to the wisdom of holding large amounts of profits in reserve and not dividing them, We ave making progress in building up a substantial reserved fund or Rest, and with a few more years of good business, well watched, we may hope to accumulate sufficient to satisfy every possible requirement in that direction.e are on the way to it ; and for the next few years any energy aud experience we have at command will be devoted to bringing about this desirable consummation, special THE NORTH-WEST.Let me now say a word or two abou: that interesting subject: the North- West, We have a large business in the North-West, as you are aware ; and you are equally aware that a very heavy reaction has set in there from the over- abounding prosperity of a \u2018vear ago.This reaction, I may say, was foreseen by us long before it came about.It was made the subject of much correspondence with our judicious and able manager, Mr, MacArthur.We had set,our faces resolutely against discounts based on real estate (applause), and, I may add, had become very unpepular with some people in consequence.We have watched our North-Western business persistently and carefully, Our late lamented president and myself visited all our Manitoba branches last Augustit was no holiday visit.The whole of our business was then thoroughly reviewed, and directions given as to its course.The Assistant General Manager, who has, I am glad to tell you, co-oper- ated with me most efficiently since his appointment, has been twice up to the .North-West durin the year.when he made a rénewed and searching examination of our business at all points.\u2018This has cost a good deal of money, but the expenditure has been well repaid.Though we had to pass through a very severe ordeal during de winter, we came through it comparatively free.Our new manager, Mr.Miller, is proving thoroughly competent for the position he occupies, while, as you have heard in the re- ort, we retain the valuable services of r.MacArthur as local adviser ; not for Winnipeg only, but for the whole North- West.The business of the bank generally, petition that has not always been judicious or reasonable, in certain quarters.With our prittipat-vætghbors we have had pleasure in cultivating good relations and Rave acted with them in matters of mutual interest.It is extremely desirable that such a condition of mutual cooperation should be brought about between the banks in Canada as exists in Scotland.(Hear, hear.) There, the rates of discount, interest and exchange, are settled by a committee chosen from the different banks.These are communicated to all the branehes and agencies of the banks simultaneously, and no manager or agent would ever think of departing from them.(Applause.) This system keeps competition within reasonable limits, and I am persuaded it is as beneficial to the mercantile community as to the banks, The oppesite system here has led to that very abuse of credit which has been already referred to, and to not a few losses; some of them serious ones.Ido not know that it is to the interest of anybody that banks should make losses.Banks cannot lose money until their customers have become bankrupt.That cannot be for the interest of the bankrupt himself, or of his creditors, or of his supporters.Certainly, gentlemen, it is not they prosper and help us to prosper.If » oA as 4 iia oh a _ _ I can assure #ou { would just like to say with regard to that His last visit wa made during the winter, } fund now amounts taa very large sum ity generally.Anything therefore that would strengthen the tone of business and diminish insolvencies must be a public benefit.INSOLYENCY LAW, This is the second year during which we have conducted our business without an insolvency law.During that time we have had to do With every interest in the country, both-great and sumal!, without a single exception, Of the magnitude of our business you may judge, when I state that we have passed through our books in loans and discounts the sum of $95,495,000, and we have passed over our counter in cheques, deposits, etc., the sum of $1,275,183,000.Now to handle that amount of money without.losing a part, lending by, is not a very easy thing to do.(Hear, hear, and applause.) Fortunately we have not to do with many cases of insolvency of late, but my deliberate conviction is we should have had many more in Canada, if traders bad had it in their power to procure, by force of law, a discharge of their debts without paying them.There are many and eighty reasons why a law for the equal distribution of insolvent estates is desirable.But a law which gives to any person debts is to the last degree undesirable, The law should be for the enforcement a contract is entirely a matter for the parties to it.An honest but unfortunate debtor can always count on fair treatment by his creditors.But to compel the breach of a contract, by law, opens a wide door to dishonesty and incapacity.(Applause) Practically, (tg speak plainly), it punishes the honest, capable and cautious trader for the faults and follies of the incapable and incautious.Experience has proved \u2018it to be a direct incentive to insolveney, a discouragement to a trader who can only pay his debts by a struggle, and a hardship and injustice to those who have conducted their affairs \u2018with prudence.(Hear, hear and applause.) The absence of alaw of equitable distribution undoubtedly works to the disadvantage of creditors in certain cases.But as a choice of evils has to be ade, I respectfully submit that the pre- ent condition of \u2018things leads to far less evils than the former one It may ccasionally lead to some cases of hard reatment by creditors.Such cases, however, in this couniry sre of rare occurrence, and can never be cited as reasons for legislation which undermines the commercial tone of the whole community.PAST DUE BILLS.You may probably notice that our past due bills still swell up to} large proportions.There are more of them than we like.But many of them are of a casual character, and caused by a fim handling of accounts and refusing to renew.Past due bills always accumulate when such a policy is pursued.Bus it is the surest way to obtain payment and prevent ultimate loss.For such bills and debts as are doubtful we have made provision by our Contingent fund, and I may say a considerable pa=t of the addition to that fund this yesv, hes been for the purpose of strengthening the provision formerly made for doubtful matters ; not for meeting new losses.; Before sitting dowa 1 will detain you or amomentlonger to call attention to an item of profit specially mentioned in our report, | mean that arising out of the sale of Pacific Railway bonds.When we were asked by our good neighbors the ank of Montreal, to take an interest in oating these bonds, , I strongly recom- ended the Board to agree to the proposal.We had, of course, fhe prospect of profit.But I would have recommended it even if there had been no very considerable profit in view.It was a matter of great public importance to have that loan floated, aud I should \u2018have been glad could we haveseen our way to take more of it.(Hear, hear.) The construction of the Pacific railway is of the highest value to every interest in Canada (hear, hear and applause), but especially to the North-West.Itisa matter of pridesto us as Canadians that we ave doing so much out of our owa resources.(Applause.) It presses rather
