estent of land, and pow furnish employment ' to à number of new settlers without means, | who have taken op adjacent luts, and who\u2018 work three or four duys n week for the: Trappisis to obtain provisisions for the entire : week for themaelves and their families.They have erected a sawmill which is operated by j water power [rom the falis near by, and have stones in it for grinding grain for feeding their eattle.For next year they intend Lo perfect the present milling arrangements so as to grind their own wheat and make their own flour.Their last year's wheat was un ex- 4 ceptionally good crop, aud this year's promises equally well.Buckwheat, cata potatoes have a splendid a, nce, and the kinds of vegetables suitable to the climate.ù are ly large and turnips very good.The monks expect to make a! feature of fruit growing at Mlistaseibi, and bave planted apple and plam trees and gra; vioes, besides garden Oka the monks raise something like 100,000 fruit irees a year for transplanting sod vale.The members of the Order say that the climate there is as good as that of Montreal | for fruit trees, while potatoes are much better and drier.The Monastery owns shree good horses and five cows.The latter are the natural French- Canadian Jerseys, of small siz» it is true, but of admirable milk and butter din, espacity, which the Tea; know full wei how to i of them were picked up as young calves from farmers who were sanding then to the butcher.These latter will learn by experience how to dis- si à good caif.rere aS res some forty families of pew settlers in the vicinity of the Mooastery and more are coming in.Many of these, as already explained, work for the Trappists.Fally 80 people attend mass each Sunday in the Trappists\u2019 private Chapel, snd the Fathers are naturally anxious to erect a church for the people of Lhe place as soon es possible, especially as the present Chapel is being overcrowded.[hose desiring to aid in this work may send contributions direct to the Revd.Father Superior of the Trappiste, Lake St.John.Much better {and than that awarded the pity of it.The fact that the monks can ob- taio such excellent results frum light sof) is in itself au encouraging and useful lesson to mew settlers.The great secrets of their success are agricultural knowledge, application and work,\u2014the latter especially.drain the rich swampy portion an hose who work for them earn their own li ing and learn the secret of the Trappists\u2019 soccess.It should be mentioned too that the community at Mistassibi commenced operations thers without any aid whatever from the parent establishment at Oka.It had only a little money that one of the Fathers begged in Quebec and elsewhere.time they te manufactare, as ai Oka, the famous Canadian mass wine which resembles the very light French wine and is sold quite cheaply, and the splendid cream cheese known as the \u201cPort du Salut,\u201d the recipe for which is a secret of à member of the Order now at Uka, just asthe Benedictines preserve the secret of the noted liqueur which they make and give a name to.\u2018The time is evidently not far off when the Trappists\u2019 Monastery at Mistassibi will be the centre of a rich agricultaral commanity.Acoording to the Chicago Tribune the town of Pullman was not reslly named after Mr.Pallman himself.The story is that W.W.Reman, the architect of the town, being justly d of his work, came Lo the proprietor nd naked that it be named *\u2018Bemsn.\u2019 \u201cUm\u2019m,\u201d said the magnate, pet is, 1 had thought of cslling the place *Pullman,\u2019 from the man who built it and paid foe it.However,\u201d Mr.Puliman added, as he observed a look of disappointment on the architect's face \u2014*However, I'm not particular.Now, what do you say to a compromise?Suppose we take the first syllable of my name, \u2018Pull,\u2019 sod the second syllable of your name, \u2018man.\u2019 There we have it.\u2018Pull,\u2019 \u2018man\u2019\u2014\"Pullinan.\u2019 { You see.that combines your idea with mine.\u201d { Me.Pallman\u2019s suggestion prevailed, and the Dame, it seer, is a compromise.Qhlidren Cre for Pitcher\u2019s tastori Ask to soe the best 97c.Brussels Caspets at 8.Carsley\u2019s, Notre Dame street, Montreal.\"dred a Trappists remains to be taken ap in the vici- | Part of i their land is sandy, rt SWAmMpY.ey | oy bo Vis take t portions of ite soil to enrich lighter land 1 \u201c QUEBEC, Bigger Than Mistassini Is the Great Lake Michikamaw.And the Best Falls in America Are Those of the Hamilton River.MOUNTAINS OF IRON ABOUND, ' AND THERE ARE SPLENDID SPECIMENS OF A PRECIOUS STONE.Messrs.Low and Faton of the (ieological Survey of Canada and four Indians have reached here, the two former on their way home to Uttaws from a perilous journey of fifteen months through darkest America, the interior of the Labeador peninsula.A brief outline of their trip from Lake St.John 10 Ungava Bay fA the extreme north, which con- ! nectywith Hudson Strait hasalready appeared, based upon personal letters from the: explorers.Not only have they now filied in this story with a record of valuable discoveries made during this portiun of their trip, but they have also brought with them one of the most wonderful reports of hitherto unksown American territory ever made public atone time.Where the maps contain dotted lines signifying the existence of an unknown Jake, Mr.Low has found au inland body of water ss large as Grand Lake Bistassini.The Hamilton River Falls exceed all that was expected of them aml are undoubtedly, saye Mr.Low, the finest in America, if not in the world.Hundreds of square miles of rich mineral deposits have bees found, and the world of science has been enriched by the collection of notes and specimens of the Hora), fauna and geological formation of this far-northera country.Early in the vear the expedition left Eskimo Bayor Hamilton Inlet to recross in- torior of Labrador.Mr.Low travelled 500 miles in dog sleigho making explorations, \u2018Then about lst March, the whole party com.the ascent of Hamilton river.Six or eight Kakimo half breeds were engaged to assist in hauling provisions, &=., but were dispensed with after a fortnight, each of the remaining men having 800 Ibs.of supplies to earry, necessitating three trips, or five includ- + ing returns, and that over a distance of 300 miles, equivalent to a journey of fifteen hun- lisa.Up to about the 19th May, the explorers ascended the river in sleighe.Then the ice gave way and the ress of the party was rendered extremely ngerous by reason of the large masses of needle shaped ice floes which met the canoes.One canoe upset and two Indisos were in the water for nearly half an hour.TRE GREAT VALLS.of Hamilton river were reached and explored jor to going out of the ice, and numbers of tiful photographaobtained fromall points, and also of the ice cones, &c.No previous dition could have had a full view of Lhe Fails, as only when the river is frosen can they be approached.Ju five miles the river has » total fall of eight hundred feet, centre ef the drop there in a sheer vertical sod the river is generally as large as the Ottawa, Iu a quarter of a mile, there is a rise of 700 fort in the portage lead ing to the head of the Falls The cataract is confined within walls 500 to 800 feet in height and perfectly vertical.In places below the Falls the canyon narrows to some twenty Lo fifty feet io width, through which the rush of water is indescribably grand.Near the foot | of the Falls, Mr.Low's party found remains of the boat, the burning of which by tha carelessly left remaine of « camp fire, inflicted such misery upon the members of the Bowdoin College exploratory expedition.The records of that expedition were discovered in s bottle above the Falls, and Mr.Low added to them those of his party.The canyon is gradually eating its way back, and the glacial period of the worll's history has left on- douhted marks upon the face of the country.Michikamaw was found by Mr.Low to be as large or larger than Lake Mistussini.It isatleast a hundred miles long, ot filled ; with islands like the latter mentioned, and ith « much greater width.The dotted A lines that purport to represent it upon exist.; manastery has à capital garden containing all ! log maps place it fifty miles away from ite jactusl position.The whole of this northern country iv a Mr.Low complains of the difficulty of kesp- ing the road through it.When the river in fect network of waterways.\u2018 Pe | nacending leads into a large lake it is often fruit sbrube.At Eee find the way oat again by the inlet.Several lakes LANGER THANX LAKE BT, JOHN : were found in the north-seat.The fish in these northern waters are ex- coodingly plentiful and include large white fish, lake and brook trout, ousoaniche and red and white carp.At Natvak, ses trout ap to 14 Ibs are taken.The explorers have .brought back with them a large collection of birds, insects, plants, ete., and more important still a large lot of beautiful Labradorite, the ious variety of the gem, and specimens of iron ore which correspond with that of Marquette, Michigan, and is of great ! value from its immense extent.There are whole mountains of the almost solid metal containing millions of tons each and this + iron-bearing formation extends Irom latitude * 50 to Ungava, covering a tract of land 300 by 200 miles in extent.Immense herds of caribou cross the northeen rivers in lute autumn, usually furnishing ample food sup- {ply to the Indians, who slaughter them by thousands.Theirgentire absence last Jori which caused death by starvation of hundreds .of Indians, is supposed by some of the abori- gives to have been caused by polluted atmos- « phere, due 10 the number of carcasses left to : decay in the previous season.Up to the time thal Mr.Low resched Mingan this month, he had received uo news from civilisation of later date than 15th December last, which resched him 20th March.Whither Are We Drifting ?\u201cWe have zome\u2014or we are surely fast comiog\u2014to the point,\u201d says the New York Evangelist (Prea.), \u201cwhere we shall be forced j to stop, snd ask ourselves, What is the meaning of the enormous wealth in ion of suocesslul men ?What is its function ¥ What its power?And rightly to answer we must 1 beable to suswer the converse questions, What are the meaning, the functions, the power of poverty ?Our Lord, we know, chose | to enter life as à poor man; that He might : understand the sorrows of the poor, we say.i No doubt ; but was that the only reason?St.Francis of Assisi thought not.He imi- , tated Him in voluntary poverty, for Lhe sake, / pot of its limitations, but of ite (reedom ; he chose to be poor in order that being utterly without the cares and preoccupations of wealth, or of earning or spending, he might ! be free, not only to serve, but also to enjoy ; free to give his time, his labour, his thoughts, bis love, Lo those in need, but also free to delight in this world of God's and ours; the splendour of the grass and glory of the flower, the companionship of and beasts, the peace of summer bights, and the joyous elixir uf wintry day ; free also to live within his own heart, and meet God there.With all the boasted freedom of our country, and our time, there are few, indeed, who have this liberty to-day.+ Posts to Be Pitied.Pity the poets who get stuck in their efforts to ronke words rh, a man hunti for a rhyme Tor the word, \u201c'Pelists \u201d A were only in the singular\u2014\"Pellet\u201d he might praise the \u201cPellet\u201d and bid you smell it, tell it, Tell it sell it and what pot.But \u201cPellets\u201d in to match.At leat Dr.Pierce's Plesssnt Pellets are matchless sa @ Cure for biliona attacks, indigestion, conatipation and sick headache.are preventive as well as curative.Hacdly larger than mustard seeds.They work wonders.'

they were further matured he should again ' communicate with us, At the close be besought us if we could not join him that we should not discredit his scheme.No doubt the adverse criticisms afterwards of it by 1 the Canadian press and its ridicule by its | comic papers may have suggested to his i mind that **we were (ae he says) pulling the 1 vices in Canada,\u201d bat it has no foundation in fact, Then as to the dence which led up ! to the interview, he Tacribos it as making irreconcilable,\u201d that it was suspended, and after a Jong silence that we invited pointment.The call or his.It opened on the 16th March by his asking an intetview with us, and waa continued without intermission till the Gth of April, on which day Mr.Huddart wrote that \u2018as Mr.Dunlop was to visit Loniion before lung, it was not necessary to write further.\u201d \u2018The visit and interview took place on the Ilth April.There was therefore no long silence before Lhe interview, and certainly none oe our part.In it our respective interests were Bot weighed at ali the one against the other, and it never became \u2018\u2018evid- i ent\u201d from them \u2018\u2018that our interests were irre- coucilable.\u201d Then as to the nuhject matter of the corres.Pondeace, it was devoted to an effort to elicit rom him how bethought we could co- te, and as a preliminary we asked in what respect bis agreement withthe Government differed from that of the Ista Mr.Bryce Douglas, whose echeme we had examined and found impracticable, e represented Mr.Douglas's scheme as having £50,000 less subsidy than his, but we | informed him that they were slike in this.He attributed the failure of Mr.Douglas's ; scheme to this, and to other causes which he f named, as well as to his untimely desth,but his letter to you now attributes ite failure as wholly dae to his desth.Une of our letters contained matter that : was distasteful to Mr.Huddart for reasons | that came out afterwards.When referring to the abandonment of Mr.Douglas's scheme, and asking ia what respect his was more | bopeful, we wrote, \u2018* It would be u great misfortune to embark on ag enterprise that had nat the elements of success in it.Ruch ® service might last for a short period ; until the borrowing powers upon the property became exhaated, but this would be roinous to À the contributors of capital.and discreditable to its promoters.\u201d And we went on to sy, ! **We had potied in a London paper that his (Mr.Huddart\u2019s) proposal, to set aside in the hands of tréigees a portion of the Govern: ment's subsidy to meet the interest upon stock was represented as affording a securit i calculated to inspire confidence in bondholi- era, and we thought it unfortunate thats de- lasive statement of this kind should be in currency, as obviously such hypothecation of subsidy would aflord po security either for interest or principal.Il the service itself was unprofitable end could not be maintained .the payment of subeidy would cesse and so would the security.\u201d Mr.Huddart wrote à sharp answer to this for which he afterwards apologized.Ho stated that the Government was prepared to ; set aside part of the subsidy to meet bond in- !

I has since transpired that Mr.Huddart's preliminary pectus contemplated raising £2,750,000, of which £1,500,000 were to be secured in the manner alluded to.If £1,500, 000 could be raised on the so-called security | of the subsidy, the enterprise, however bad in itself, could go on until it lost the bulk of the | , \u20ac1,500,000, for it could borrow inoney on the security of the fleet in which it and other capital raised might be invested, and which, , if the enterprise failed, would wholly dis- ; appear.the company earns no subsidy that interset ! © had thus at an early sf put our fioger on a weak point of Mr.Huddart'a + scheme, which raised his ire.So much for the correspondence and interview, ! Mr.Huddart adversely critizes other parts of our letter.He represents uv as trying to | show that it is a disadvantage to have to + y work with three great railways, and adds : | i \u201cIt appears to him that if he had not these \u2018 railways to help, his position would be more ditficult.\u201d In this be agrees with us, that he is mainly dependent on these, und our pur- pues was to suggest that they were insufficient.Our remark was, that it was \u2018\u2018got a cheerful lookout for a line that has to develop .Brear trade that it should be de, pleut y tl co-operation aad good-will of rail- ! ways (« vingie Hne in winter end two in summer), which, however friendly, were to have uo stake in the undertaking.\u201d With reference to the ditficulty we felt and stated in regard to a scheme which reynired 1 vessels of great speed and cost, whose speed could not be utilized, he would have you believe that we argue that a 20-knot speed cannot be safely run where a 14-knot may be.Everyone knows that the one may be as safe as the other in clear weather.Our representation wasthat in the weatier and waters where this service is to run, the high speed cannot contisuously, nor to the same degree as on the New York route, be safely maintained, and a trade and subsidy that is to be made and earned by such speed in the Cana- , dian route is at serious disadvantage.* Mecontrasta thé safety of mail with cargo steamers as if it proved something favorable to the former, ignoring the fact that there sreonly tive mail steamers on the route against an enormous fleet of cargu boate, and also that even the present mail ts subor- .dinate « tosafety.In n recent voyage the swiftest she uteamed -only\u201d 190 * of one i knots one day sad 71 the next because of 3 ull speed being 350 knots.: hg ee mys rh not his intention to run his boats at twenty knots, but bow is he to contend with boats thai maintsin even \u201cevident that our respective interests were on .\u2014her future, if not ber peerl, ia the sobsidy tn be pail* He also fecls assured that the period for which he will receive the subsidy will run for twenty years.This will be a new experience among governments.The history of the past everywhere has been that when services are once ished Lhe tendency is to reduce the sub- We once had a very high subsidy guaranteed for seven years, but before the peri«l was run we had to take half the amount because of lessened spoed that we deemed necessary for safety.Mr.{luddart remarks that in stating that safety is mainly due to increased watchful ness we gave our case away, for it brings in the human factor, the difference between nne man and another.Surely Mr.Huddart does not here wish to contrast the difference between himself and us to our advantage! If this be his meau- ing, we can only say that we know nothing of Mr.Huddart's management of ships, hut it is not safe for any one to claim superiority over another, and we notice that the Canadian Gazett:, of the 2nd instant, which repurta sn interview with Mr.Hauddart, alan records that the steamer *\u201cMiowers,\u201d which he is said to manage, has been twice ashore, once on the rocks at the entrance to Honolulu harbor, and again on the 31st July on the west coast of Norway.Mr.Huddart hes some remarks to make upon the Allan toyalty to the Daminion that we think he might have spared.IF he succeeds in gaining the confidence of the moneyed public, and establishes successfully à ner- vice that none of the companics engage in the Atlantic trade have hosn wiiling to embark their own fortunes in, or those of their friends, he will deserve and receive a high place in public estimation.Weare, Yours truly, JAMES AND ALEXR ALLAN.23 Bothwell atreet, Glasgow, Auguet 16th, 1994.Incidents of Lord Coleridge's American Visit.I had the honor, in company with the iate Lord Hannen, the late Lord Bowen, Sir Horace Davey, Mr.Bryce, M.P., aud Mr, Marten, Q.C., formerly member for Kilkenny, of visiting America with him in 1883, We were invited by the liar of the State of New York, and some of us were subsequently the guests of Mr.Villard, then the President of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, on the first through journey by that route across the continent to the Pacific slopes.Lord Coleridge did not accompany us on this parce our travels; but in several of the New ; England States he received marks of honor, all of us enjoyed the proverbially generous hospitality of the great American pe le.Thie visit added à fous number to ia budget of anecdotes which he used to tell with moch enjoyment, although now and then some of them told against himself.[le.sirous of information, d Coleridge was inquiring from Mr.Evarts, the distinguished New York barrister, formerly Secretary of | State, how American lawyers were remunerated for their work.Lord Coleridge \u2014Pray, Mr.Evarts, how do clients pay their lawyers with you ?Mr, Evarta\u2014 Well, my retaining fee ; it may be $50, or it may be $5,000, or $3,000.Lard Coleridge \u2014Yes : and what does that cover ?: that is simply the repaid for as the work is done, cooriding to the work done.Lord Coleridge\u2014VYes, Mr, Evarts ; and «do clients like thet ?Mr.Evarts\u2014Not a bit, my Lord, not a bit.They generally say, \u2018I guess, Mr.Evarts, I should like to know how deep down [ shall have 10 go into my breeches pocket to sse this business th h 1 Lord Coleridge\u2014Yes, what do you say then ?Mr, Evarta\u2014Well, my Lord, I have invented a formula which 1 have found answer very well.I say : \u201cSir, or Madame, as the case may be, I cannot undertake to say how many judicial errors 1 shall be called upon to correct before I obisin for you tinal justice.\u201d Lord Coleridge used Lo tell with glee an anecdate concerning à dinner gives to him in Chicago b: collapse of the banquet was threatened owing to the too vigilant attention of the sheriffs ofticers who held a writ of £.fa.over the - host's goods and chattels.threatened da occasion, he ha owever, the r was averted.On the same stipulated and was assured that there would be no speeches ; but, to his .discomfiture, he saw his host retire into a corner with his secretary before dinner was announced 16 settle the final proofs of n specch which he later delivered with much success at the bangnet.Lord Coleridge was a good deal bothered by that product of the nineteenth century, tke interviewer; and ' on his way to Chicago one of these gentlemen, failing otherwise to draw him out, an to belittle the old country in the matter of lakes and rivers and mountaing, and even men.Lord Coleridge bore i patiently ; finally, the interviewer said : I am told,\u201d my Lord, you think a great deal of what you call your great fire of London.Well, 1 guess that the conflagration we had in the little village of Chicago m «le your great fire [ok small.\u201d To which Lord Coleridge blaudly responded : \u201cNir, I have every reason to believe thet the great fire of Loudon was quite as t aa the ple at the time desired.\u2019\u2014From \u2018The be Lord Chief Justice of Kogland : Some Reminiscences,\u201d by the present Lord Chief Justice, the Right Mon.Lord Russell of Killower, in North American Recwr for September.Bmbarrassed by their Riches.(New York Herald.)

and the cost of the trans.Pacific cable, In connection with the Crafereace, Sir Adolphe stated thatihe French Canadians had been delighted with it, and added :\u2014 \u201cThe ion of he delegates si

people all about the mistakes of Sir Jous Txomrsox and This Cabinet, the Toronto Globe is adding Planks to the Liberal platform, At pre.went the timber consists of sixteen pieces.Some of them are very good.Others arc mot ao good.The Globe advocates the abolition of Government House, thus flattering the Now Brunswick Government by imitating it.It also wishes to do away with Rideau Hall appropriations.That enght to be done, and the way to doit would be to tear the old place down and build » handsome new official residence for the Governor-General.The expenditure made every year on Rideau Hall, for repaies and what not, is a scandalous waste of public money.The place never seems to be in good condition or habitable.Our contemporary inaists on the abolition of exemptions from taxation and the destruction of the Federal Seoate.Tho Senate has always been objected to by the Glowhieh sees no usefuloess in that institation foragedand worn-out statesmen.Then, the Toronto organ pleads for the one man, one vote, and one voters\u2019 list, principle, in forcible terms.The number of Ministers next cogages the editor's pen, and he would like to see fewer portfolios.Should the Liberals come to power, the Senate will not beabolished, nor will there be a less sumber of Ministers appointed.The spoils will belong to the victors, as usual.The Globe wants s Railway Commission to prevent unjust discrimination.The Mi- Eitis Department, it thinks, needs reformation.That Dopartment always comes in for hard knocks.The superannuation system is said to be unfair and unjust, and the Liberal ides, as developed by the organ, is to make it better.These avo the main features of the programme wrhich the Globe urges the Liberal party to acoopt ns its policy, when the country is appealed to.Inthe good old days, when Canad: Sourished under the French King, the anneal arrival of ships from the mother land, lnden with young women in search of hushands, was eagerly Jooked for by the lome young mou of the Colony.Under British rule, the system is no longer observed.To-day, we sound to Britain fer our domestics, though the importation is not as large as the good house-wife demands.Western Australis, however, has gone back to first principles.There is a great scarcity of maidens out there, and the bachelors are pining for female society.They want help-meets, but the raw material is not at band.Hence the adoption, by them, of a plan, by means of which, the happiness they crave, may be gratifed.They have asked their Gorerament to instruct the London agent of the Colouy, to ship a few cargoes of eligible young persons of the fair sex, to West Australia.It is stated that the vomarried uen of the distant Colony run far into the thousands.The London agent is informed, we learn, that the passages of the young girls from Liverpool, will be paid by the Antipodean Government.The British matrimonial market will experience, during the course of the next few weeks, quits a boom in marriage.\u2018able sscurition.The selector of eligible partners bas & serious task before him.It is to be hoped that he will accomplish his mission without getting into very hot water.The fast Atlantic Ocean service continues to claim the attention of the Eogliah news papers, which are discussing the prospect, of the en with considerable zeal.The London Times, bas, of late, devoted much of its valuable space to the project, long editorials and letters appearing at frequent intervals, in the columns of our great contemporary.In the Times of tho 2st August, received by the last mail, thers is a lengthy article, bristling with figures, anent the scheme.The question asked is will it pay?Mr.HopparT and she capitalists associated with him, are very sanguine on that point.From the vory first they never bad any doubt about the matter.The existing lines say that there would not be much money in tbe ventare, and it is for that reason that they refuse to embark in it.If the syndicate has confidence in its power to run the steamers, ou the trafic that will be attracted by the fast service promised, and the Government subsidy, that is quite their own affair.Our impression is that they understand thoroughly their own business, else they would not undertake the tuk they offer, où certain conditions, to perform.There are no shrewder or harder-headed business men in the world than the great operators to be found in London.They say that they are satisfied with the terms.Thengive them a chance to put their ideas to à practical test.Canads can lose nothing if the projectors of the fast line fail to suc- coed.Not a dollar of the subsidy voted nat session by the Dominion Parliament, will be given until the service for which the subsidy is granted has been performed The article in the Times, to which we _ Juve alluded, begine by showing that the project would be a great thing for Canada in avery way, as well as a good thing fur the British Empire generally, and the extension of Intercoloniai trade.In England the subject is not viewed with fe clever lines addressed to; rand, the author of \u201cThe Heavenly |.fers on that score.The Tus the Author of \u201cThe Heavenly | diaapproval.In some quarters there is doubtas to whether the line would pay, but the projectors themselves have, apparently, ; gres into the financial aspects of the case pretty fully, and we give the figures here, in onder that oar readers may see for lhemselves what the \u201cThasderer\u201d thinks of the matter.Touching the alleged dangers of the St.Lawrence mute, the Times considers them as having been disposed of already.The article will bear attentive reading: \u2014 \u201cThe financial prospects of the scheme are doubtless of first importance, and they are difficult to forecast.Lord Jersey asked at the Conference for figares which might assist him in forming some estimate of probable cost.He was told that the est capital required for the nine steamabips to be employed on the Atlantic end Pacific s of the Vive would be £3,000,000 sterling.This left the working expenses sad the profits still entirely vague, and some estimate of what the» may be expected to amount to is essential if we are, as Lord Jersey suggested, to endeavor to render ourselves spre that any company undertaking the contract will be in a position to folfil its obligations.Such an estimate can on'y be arrived at on the supposition of some moderate measure of success, Assum ing thatthe vessels when built are of the steaming and earrying capacity promised, assuming good management and the condequent satisfaction of the travelling and tradin, publie, it is possible on the present retorn: oi trade and traffic to make a rough \u201caiculation of probable revenue and expenditure.Exports estimates have been made both in London std Canada at various times for other ojected lines, and we shall probably be noi ar wrong if, following them, we take some such summary of figures as fvllows : \u2014 PRN ENUR.Untward Journey.Pras fares calcolated at 60 posted! the Le capacity of the vessels .Freight 900 tons weight at 100.£450 Freight 480 tons measurement at

Depreciation and commissions Management, office expenses, adver- Umingg.22 2 Lee rence ; £14,420 The figures must, of course, be taken ae merely spproximate.Avery slight recast.À of estimate would work out ai ro profit imatead of loss.Indeed, à estimate based on somewhat different calculations and arriving st very pearly the same result, summarizes the expenditure for the year at £53),000, and gives the estimated earnings at £376,000, thus showitg an sp t surplos of £56,000.Both estimates ve subsi-lies ont of count and both are for the Atlantic portion of the line alone.With regard to the Pacific portion, it bas been found by experience that with the insufficient number of steamers now on the line trade has increased steadily from three months to three months, It would be manifestly onwise to atiach too much importance to any such calculations as have been quoted.All that they can be said to do it to five a general idea of the commercial possibilities of the scheme, and as they stand they would seem to show that there iv a substantial of success if the subsidies asked for be granted for ten years.This was the limit fixed by Mr.Hodfant when he me examined before the Conerence.he Imperial subsidy, if granted, will be ted, as he pointed our, Fey in return for service rendered, and the whoie scheme is based on the anticipation that the devel t of commercial and other intercourse between different parts of the Empire, which increased facilities for communication are likely to Jromote, will, within the coming dooney Justi ly the line asa financial cres- The Attorney-General is looking sharply after the managers of gambling devices, throughout the Province.He has instructed his agents here and clsewhere, to soppressthe petty swindler.Even the little machines which take in small coins rad give out, in return for good inoney, bad cigars and cheap cigarettes, are not exempt from the strong arm of the law.There is a great deal of this low cheating guing on in our city.Almost every refreshment saloon, we are told, possesses ane of thems boxes, and the patronage daily drawn from customers is large.Mr.CasGRais has made up his mind to stop the whole nefarious business, and all persons found with these gambling implements on their premisss will be rigorously prosecuted.When the Attorney-General makes up his mind to act he always acts with great vigor, promptness, and determination.This warning note is sounded 20 that all who are liable to prosecution for running gmnbling games, may govern themselves accordingly, aod take in their

a people that we should maintain a military force for defence against foes from without and for the preservation of order within, it is well that the public take an interest in our re- gene That they do this is evident om the crowds at parades and re~\u2018cws, and from the attention **al is given to military news.I is also evinced in a smaller degree by contributions from a section of the public in turtherance of the aims the regiments have in view.Various entertainments of a raventic-producing kind which are gctttn up by our military contingent are duly ** patronized,\u201d as the ohjectionable word is.Prizes for shooting, etc., are also forthcoming, respecting which the injunction of the old proverb about *\u2018 never looking à gift horse in the mouth\u201d is strictly obwerved.It may be affirmed, however, that people would take more interest in military matters if they were acquainted with the inner working of the regiments ; Îf they knew the amount of time and money that is spent on them by the officers ; and if they estimated at their true value the hearty good will and rit de corps of the rank and file.tically speaking, our military es- tablubment depends on the officers.They are the backbone of the organisation.The Government adopts the prin ciple of contributing s pa¥t only of the expenses, leaving the rest to be provided by private enthusiasm.Our three city regiments, for instance, are kept up to the strength they exhibit by the officers puttiog their hands into their pockets, and by the men allowing their annual Government pay to be funded for the benefit of the regiments to which they belong.Only in two regiments jn the Dominion last year was the Government allowance sufficient to pay for the uniformm of all tho men.The Government therefore expects from the preponderating number of our military men a very t amount of work, and that those who do it shall have the privilege of helping to pay for it.The Governinent has not beon disappointed in this expectation.These very conditions lift the service out of the region of the mercenary, and confer on it a high title to respect.Nor is the respect likely to be lessened if the «qualifications of à good officer are considered.An officer cannot take up military work as a mere sideline athletic sports, amateur theatricals, atna- teur politics, music, clfrch sucials, lawn tennis, and all the numerous fascinating things that bid for à man's leisure.If he does, he speedily has to confess that he is not in the front rank of efliciency.The officers of our regiments are, for the most part, men of business who have their responsible daily positions to fill, and if they mean to be up to the mark they must devote the principal part of the leisure that their business leaves them to their military duties.A glance at the paper of questions set year by year for officers by the Militia Department shows that an amount of study is necessary which will take up many earnest hours, if the students who have to tackle them arc concerned for the honour of their reyi- ments and for their own efficiency.There are drills and parades to attend, which involve a good doal of detail that ia by no means play, while the mere management of the rogiment as an organization is a matter the demands of which only those know who have had experience of it.The model officer finds that military work is a pursuit in which there is generally something to be done.He finda that in that, as in most things, the attempt to achieve loomplete saccens demands a Jarge amount of zeal and industry, and that such is the urgency of the position that its demands must either ke complied with or tho whole pursuit relinquished, It is a gratifying thing that in connection with our city regiments, as in many other places in Canadas, a class of men have come to the front who have been ready to devote themselves to this work with the roquisite amount of thoroughness and oarnestuess.The high ideal which has been net should be maintained, and the only thing that will do it is the carrying out of the principle that if a thing is morth doing at all, it is worth doing well.THE GOVERNOR-GENBRAL'S PRISE HOW IT WAS WON BY LIKUT.W.H.DAVIDSON, Orrawa, August 31 \u2014There have been exciting sommes on the Rideau ranges duriog the inion Rifle Association matches, but there never was one like to-day, when the tie-off was shot for the Governor.General's prizes of $500 and the special badges.This watch is the big oue of the meeting, only those are allowed to compete in it who are in the grand te hundred.The morning up with the shooting off nf the seven men tied for the six last places in the grand aggregate.The results stood as follows :- Siafl.J.J.Bell, M.G.A.24

firstrfew shots were in excitement began, for in spite of the wiod, being about half-past five o'clock and rather tricky, bali's-eyes and inners were in order.There was a triple tie for the first place, two Ontario men against Quebec.Others were alo tied for the uext seven places, but the interest centered in the first.Then came the shoot off, fired at the 600 yards extra series targets.Pte.Heller was the first to fire, making a bull's-cye for a sighter ; then Marris made an outer, and Davidson, for his ighter, also made a bull's-eye.Heller's first shot was an inner ; thew Marris followed with a ie, and Davidson with an inner.Heller, for bis second shot, pat in an inner, and Marris followed witha bull's cye, and as Davidson made another inner, all three were still tied with threo shots each to go.Inthe next round Marris dropped out as he ooly male an outer, but as both the others made magpies, they were still tied.Heller brought ha rifle to the shouider again to ses whether he abould be $250 or only $130 richer, The nervousness of à green man told here, and after the disk came up it was seen to be an outer, and the Quebec men were relieved, as their representative, Davideon, bad only to make an inner to win.He wasequal to the occasion, in fact did better, and put on à bull's-eye nearly plum centre and won the match.Below are the results, first

Plains of Abraham, before thousands of en thusiestic spectators.The spectpcle wa a moat impressive ~~e and was well calculated 1» cell up all the loyalty that fills the heart of the average Quebecer to such an eminent degree, and naturally ao, for is vot this the oldest city of the oldest Province of Canada, at the same time the second garrison town of British North America, acd \u2018e it not also rightly styled the alter of America, a title of which ail {ta people are quite justly proud.Without its grim walls was fought the famous fight that determined the destiny of a continent and gave to Lhe greatest Empire that the world has ever seen, one of the gems that sparkle amid the jewels of its glorlous crown, What more befitting then than that the successors of the gallant conquerors of Canads should give to us, their sons, » brilliant show of mimic warfare.As for those who have not such loyalty to that Empire on which the sun never sets, and who do not owe to it any allegiance, the display was calculated to inspire them with respect for the wonderful discipline and efficiency of those valisnt ten, who so ably rule the sons, and when occasion demands, the land also.The men were about 500 in number mad they landed with four field guns.The sailors who dragged them up therocky heights were sixty-four in number, sixteen to each piece.They all carried that famous weapon oown as the cutlass, which sioewy British: arms #0 well know how to wield.The rest of the force was composed nf sailors, marines, infantry and artillery, the ambulance, pioneer and signal corps and the band of H.M.&.\u201cBlake.\u201d The sailors and marines were armed with rifles snd bayonets, and the whole force wore buff leggings, wl the sailors wore airy linen jackets, of white, trimmed with blue.These are much lighter and easier to work in than are the bie jackets, from which the men derive their name.Capt.Hamilton and Commander Baile: tom.mand of the parsde and at 9.30 ail their men

little fiell work Lieut.Campbell put the sailors throsgh the Manual and Firing Exercises, which they performed with the precision and accuracy of a machine.It ie doubtful if anything as fine of the kind has ever been seen even in Quebec before and it certainly could wot be excelled anywhere.The Marines next went through the new bayonet rxercise in excellent style, and then came the part of the drill that was most eagerly looked for on all sides.Thie was the gun drill by the field detachment.The way in which the men got the guns into position, and limbered them up again, and the manner in wbich they changed the wheels of gon carriage and limber were simply wonderfal and drew out the warmest admiration of the assembled throng.The most amusing feature of the whole performance, however, was the dismembering of the limber and gun carri which were all taken to pieces, the gun dismounted and the different parts carried off for some distance.The enemy that got holl of them in such shape would be puzzled in- desl to discover how to make avy use of them.They were equally quickly put together and the trcope then reformed.This really terminated the drill, but, sa iu all well appointed shows, the tid bit had been kept for the last in thie case it was the grand sham fight that wound up the proceedings.A portion of the milors with the marines and one field gun were entrenched to the noutih and west of the gaol on the height upon which it is situated.The main body of the sailors with the remainiog three guna started out from the western end of the Plains to dislodge the garrison and right well did they carey the position.Volley after volley the defenders poured into the advancing forces while their artillery hurled shrapoell sad canoister imo the aitacking ranks.The latter however in skirmishing order crept closer and closer, firing judiciously as they went, while the guus which cover up their advance made matters lively for the de fenders by dropping comnmon shell and shrapnell into their midst, One might have sup posed that when the nine or ten foot fence at the eastern end of the I'lains was roached, the advancing column would be found in fault, but defeat is a thiog unknown to the Britisher, and the men, agile ns monkeys, scaled the barrier as regularly as wheo an hour before they had marched past the saluting point.A minute or two longer of skirmishing aud the men, by this time in line with Wolfe's monument, rose in their feet and with a rioging cheer charged upon the i nary fort.A volley or two the defenders fired, and then not waiting to become acquainted with fixed bayonets and cold steel they turned and fled.e bugle sounded the recall when the garrison were in full flight and the mimic fight wes over.The two de- techments joined forces and returned to the Plains and then, when they had been formed up, they marched back to their boats, headed by the ered thom Artillery Band, which also pla; them u he ance the men Fe noires admire and they really looked to be a pretty tough lot tw tackle.Their work in the field precy conclusively established the fact that behind their iron walls is not the only place in which the British sailors can fight, Some of the incidents u the field were rather amusing.At one time, while the men were standing at ease, 8 lad with a conple of baskets of apples went out to offer them for sale to the Tare.He was soon relieved vf every one of them and those which the purchasers could not eat themselves they handed round to their companions or stuffed into the capacious waiste of their jackets.At another time during the charge oue of the future Admirals of Her Majesty's service fell at full length on the ground, and only picked himselt ue in cime toavoid being run over by the dashing followers at his heels.A large force of police under Lieut,.Col.Vohl and a mounted detachment of \u201c\u201cB° Battery rendered excellent service in keepin, the field clear, but there was no clubbing oi helpless women and children as in Montreal.Aon immense number of spectators lined the Terrace to see the men embark on the ships, and this proved to be quite a novel proceed: ing.About three boats at a time, each loaded down with as many men as could be crowded into it, were taken io tow by one of the steam launches of the ships and brought up to the side of the vessel.Un behalf of the people of Quebec we ver: heartily thank the popular Admiral and h alinost equally popular men for the very interesting sight that they treated them to yesterday.It bas been reported, and we hope correctly, that the three ships now in the harboar will remain here until after the Exhibition.H.M.8.\u201cCansda\u201d and *Magicienne\u201d have gone to Nicaragua, the acene of the -Bluefields trouble, while, as
