CABLE ROUTE TO AUSTRALIA.Interview With the Agent General of New South Wales.WixxireG, Man, Aug.19.\u2014Sir.Saul Samuel, agent general of New South Wales, arrived here to-night en route from Australia to London.In course of an interview he said he believed the question of transferring the mail service from American to Canadian lines had not been seriously considered, but was under the imgression that the present contract, via San Francisco, would be renewed for another year.Concerning the Pacific \u2018cable scheme, he was not in a position to express An opinion.As faras he knew of the question it had not been considered officially, certainly had not been brought before the Colonial Parliaments.He understood that Owen Jones had interviewed the different colonial governments touching the matter, and had been favorably received.He had no doubt the scheme would be carried out.It would bea boon to commercial men, as it was a second cable route and had become a necessity, The Pacific cable route was second best, preference being given generally to the pre]x sed route from Ceylon to Western Australia, across the Indian ocean.He spoke in the most eulogistic terms of tLe present C.P.R.systein, and described the transport facilities and accommodation as being the best in the world, in fact,it could scarcely be better.As to Chinese immigration, he said the question became a bitter one, and tbe people would take active measures to exclude them.FROM THE PRAIRIE CITY.More Railway\u2014Murder by a Montreal Student\u2014-Duich Johnny's Fate\u2014 Steamer in the

~Number of Bilis passed\u2014Long Session expected.\u2018WasHixgrox, D.C., Dec.19.\u2014To-morrow (Monday) will be the 200th day of actual session of the 50th Congress.Only three Congresses, the 27th, 31st and 32nd eat later this date.The 27th and 32ud sat until Aug.31st, and the 31st sat until Sept, 30th, The general impression now is that the Fiftieth Congress will braak the record and sit until sometime in October.The number of bills and joint resolutions introduced in this Congress is, in round numbers, 15,000, of which about 11,500 were introducel in the House and 3,500 in the Senate.Of these 15,000 measures introduced and sent to committees, about one-half have been reported upon, the number of reports from Committe being about 6,000, but many of them including more than one bill in a single report.The House has passed over 1,000 of its own bills and 360 Senate bills.The Senate has passed over 1,100 of its own bills and 450 House bills.Of those passed by both the House and the Senate, many wers amended by one or the other of the bodies, and are still in Conference Committee, or awaiting final agreement.Of those passed and finally agreed to 353 Benate bills and joint resolutions have gone to the President for action, making a total of 1,614, Of those 88 have been vetced and 50 allowed tn become law without the Presidential signature, while the remainder, with the exception of a few now on the President's desk, have been signed and become law.Of the 88 bills vetoed by the President 60 originated in the House and 28 in the Senat2, though the jy zrcentage of House and Senate bills vetoed by him has been about equal.The total number of vetoes sent to Congress by Mr.Cleveland since he has become President is 233, being eight times as many as sent by any other President, and more than twice as many as sent by all his predecessors in the presidential chair.The number of bills introduced in this first session of this congress is greatzr than ever was ntrcduced in both sessions of any other congress, and 15 per cent.in excess of these introduced in any first session heretofore, while the number passed and sent to the President is also 1n excess of these of any other congress in its first session.Ten of the appropriation bills have become law, and of the remaining, five sundry, civil, army, navy fortification and deficiency, All save the deficiency bill have passed the House.\u201cIt is understood here that Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World and St, Louis Post and Dispatch, will soon start a two-cent morning daily as an organ for the Democracy.The World's cable and special despatches will be used.AUGUST.20.1838.SUBSCRIPTION $6.00 PE] 8ANNUM MASONIC PICNIC.The Brethren of the Mystic Tie Hold Their Annual Outing at Missisquoi Park.One of the most successful picni.s ever held by the craft in the District of Montreal took place on Saturday last to Highland Springs, Vermont.The train was made up of fourteen cars and carried upwards of five hundred people from Montreal alone.The Grand Lodge was represented by R.W.Bro.Dixon Anderson, D.G.M., R.W.Bro.Fyfe, D.D.G.M., and R.W.Bro.Henry Dunne, G.Registrar, R.W, Bre.Frank Baxter, P.G.S.W., (who resides a few mules from the Springs), Was also present.Montreal contributed to the gathering between twenty-five and thirty masters and past masters, amonyst whom were noticed W.Bros Couper, As- pinall, Trepannier, Maisonneuve, Crosby, Anderson, Hill, Walker, Leslie, Hx- ginbottom, Doherty, Briggs, Griftin, Mitchell, Byrd, Wilson, McRobie, Terry, Wiiliams, Smillie and Willis.The several stopping places on the way helped to swell the nureber of pleas- ure-seekers; the run out wa: made in a little over two hours.The train from St, Albans brought a considerable number of pussengers and there must have been over fifteen hundred people on the grounds during the day.The beauties of Missisquoi Park, with its magnificent trees and shady, well laid out walks, are too well known to call for special remark, suffice it to say the weather on Saturday was Queen's weather, the cool breezes off that gem of lakes, \u201cChamplain,\u201d tempered the heat of ths sun, and everybody enjoyed themselves to their hearts\u2019 content.Immediately on arrival those who came provided with picnic baskets hastened to secure a table (of which there is no lack) under the trees on which to spread the many good things brought out to supply the cravings of the inner man; others crowded the refreshment rooms, and when this important part of the programme had been got through with, they hied themselves to the part of the park where the games were to be held, which commenced at one o'clock.The various committees were ably presided over by the foliowing brethren : General

efforts of the master of ceremonies, Bro.Dave Stevenson, who worked like à Trojan.The jodgee also had their hands fuil, but the impartiality of their decisions prevented any contre-t nips.The

Jacksonville\u2014The Negroes Frightened\u2014Insuflicieney of Workers Among the Sick\u2014Scarcity of Money.JACKSONVILLE, Fla., August 19.\u2014The feeling of safety which beran to be felt in the latter part of the week was succeeded tc-day by the old fright when the announcement that flve new cases bad been discovered was made by the members of the Board of Health.The returning of fugitives has been changed into & second exodus.Trains going out of the city are again loaded with psople who can scrape the necessary money together, and the unfortunates who remain have taken on a look of almost sullen despair.To make the matter really worse, two negroes were among the new cases and the colored population have taken fright and are exodusing to-night with all the alacrity of their white brethren.As the negroes have heretofore been really about the only unconcerned people here and could consequently be relied upon to do the manual labor necessary in infected districts and around the hospitals, their alarm has served to seriously complicate the question of taking care of the sick, lfthe fright continues it will be an impossibility to secure laborers, money to pay the exorbitant prices being inacceseable, locked up in the suspended banks.The work of disinfecting goes steadily on with undiminished vigor.Houses from which the sick cases continue to be taken have been condemned and will be burned down.Strenuous efforts will be made to prevent à further spread.In the meantime developments are awaited witn anxiety.There was one death reported to-day.\u2014_ THE FRENCH

of the arrangements for the Welsh picnic, which was to have been held at the Back River on Saturday, changed their programme and held their celebration in the Armory Hall.Indoor games and a concert helped to pass the time pleasantly until noon, when lunch was pariaken of At 2 o'clock the company took an enjoyable drive in three of King\u2019s expresses around and to the summit of Mount Royal.On tie mountain Mr.Parks, the well-known photographer, photographed tte members of his the first Cambrian organization ever formed in Canada.The company then returned to the armory where they enjoyed an excellent supper.They met again in the cencert room at 7 o'clock when gcngs of Wales were suns and addresses in both Welsh and English delivered.The following tookpart in the proceedings Mr, Morris, of Mrs.Ives & Co., Mr.K.T.Williams, Mr.Evan Jons, Rev.W.Wyme Davies, of Aberystwyth College, Mr.and Mrs.Richard Roberts, Mr.and Mrs.Mills, Mr.John Lewis, Mrs, Howell and her two daughters, Mr, Edwin Jones, of Liverpool, accompanied by Miss Gladys Jones and the president, Mr.Jabez Jones.The prize given by Alderman Clendinneng was won by Mr.Richard Rolerts, he having been the best of six in his three minutes\u2019 impromptu'speech on the subject,\u201cNothing.\u201d An interesting part of the proceedings was the presentation of an address to Mr.and Mrs.Thomas Mergag on their departure to Wales.It was in their house the Montreal Welsh Union was formed nine months ago.The audience heartily joined in the quaint farewell grip and chorus of \u201cEr Muryn yr Amser Gynt.\u201d Ag there was left much surplus provisions consisting of bread, cake, {ruit, ete., the president deemed it a duty and privilege to hire a carriage, which he drove to the noble institution of St.George Lociety, and there cheerfully de- rosited the surplus supplies of this the first picnic of a Welsh organization in Canada.The Rev.W.Wynne Davies preached an eloquent Welsh sermon yesterday in the Union\u2019s room, Y.M.C.A.building.The room was filled to its utmost capacity.An AMUSEMENTS.Theatre Royal, UNDER THE GASLIGHT.The company which presented the melo-drama, Under the Lash, at the Royal last week, closed a successful engagement on Saturday night.The attraction at the Royal this week, commencing this afternoon, will be Augustin Daly\u2019s highly popular and well known play of Under the Gaslight.The company which presents it is said to be an excellent one, and comes highly recommended by the press of cities already visited.Dominion Square Coneeris.To-night, Monday, at 8.15 the

Most Popular Foreman.That the \u201c Kuights of the Stick\u201d are popular as a class, none who attended heir picnic on the Island Saturday afternoon can deny.They were popular witb everybody for the attendance included among its number many prominent citizens, as well as large numbers of the rank and file of society.They were popular even with that very uncertain individual, ibe clerk of the weggher, for he granted them the buon\u2014a very rare one for a pienic\u2014of glorious cool weather, just the thing for -an event of the kind.The \u201ctypos\u201d benefited in consequence, for the crowd wae an extreme'y large one.Each boat after one o'clock carried over a fair contingent, until fully 3,000 people had gathered on the ground.In connection with the attendance a great cause of complaint among the pleasure seekers was the ferry service.They were of the opimisn that, considering the large crowd who attended the picnic, two boats should have been put on.Many people got disgusted on the city side and would not wait for the boat.In the evening, also, after she had taken on board a full load without any notification of where she was going, the \u201cBer- thier 7 turned down stream to to the disgust of those on board and made forthe wharf at Longeiul.After discharging a few passengers there she returned again to the island and took on scme additional cargo to an already well loaded boat before pointing to the city.However, to return to the pic-nic, everything went off smoothly and well.The day was inaugurated by the WHITE HAT PARADE of one hundred and fifty good-looking \u201ctypos\u201d in their \u201cbest bib and tucker.\u201d These assembled at their hall on McGill street, formed in line, headed by Pipers Matthewson and Riddell and the City Band and marched through the different streets down town.The offices of the Herarp and Post were first visited and serenaded, after which those of the Gazette, Star and Witness came in for attention.The parade was highly creditable to all concerned.On the Island everything was lovely.A tent was there for the accommodation of tbe committee and their guests.It might be mentioned that these latter were well looked after.Among the prominent citizens noticed present were the Hon.Peter Mitchell, Ald.White, Mr.J.J.Curran, Q.C., M.P.,, Lt.-Col.Mattice, Lieutenant.-Colonel Stevenson, Mr.St.John, of the IHeraip, and Mr.Robert \u2018White of the Guzctte.The people comutenced to arrive at one o'clock and the games were promptly started at that hour.They coinposed an extensive programme of athletic sports which were all well contested and worth witnessing.Simultaneously with the commencement of the games the orchestra for the dancing commenced to tune up.Phrough- out the afternoon coustant relays of lads and lasses kept up an indefatigable trip- pins of the \u201clight fantastic.\u201d The City and and the pipers also added variety to the musical portion of tho programme, The following were the judges: Hon.Peter Mitchell, Lieutenant-Colonel Mattice, James Harper, Esq, Lieut.- Col.A.A.Stevenson, R.S.White!

but small faults make a greater difference in cost than usual at the present time, and under-pricad goods are going at all sorts of figures, just as trade can be caught, and we have reports ranging from 8ic for really fine stock down to 7ic@8c for good, useful stock, including quite a number of the held over lots.The night skims ara not very plenty, but rule slow, and whils we hear of a few specials above our figures, as a matter of fact the bulk will not sell better than Gic, and some pretty nice lots go at lower rates still.We quote :\u2014 oe Finest colored.c.cveecvvnieisinisees 81@ 9 \u2018 white .8, 9 Fine white es .e .8i@ 8} Medium.crease 0 @ 8 Chicago Grain and Provision Markets.The wheat market was generally firm.highest price of the day, while October closed at the top point, 85c, date last year prices were 68}c and 704c the former closing price for September, and closed 4c down at 44} from the were $c@ic lower than the previous closing.September closed at 841c, or $c below the : At the same : respectively.Corn did not sell above , | previous day.October and November MONTREAL HERALD AND September, $13.80 October.Lard was 21c@5c up, closing at $8.95 September, $8.924 October, $8.05 November.The late New York Market is thus reported.WHEAT\u2014Spot was up about lc.under the excitement in the options.Most of the cable retusals that were sent out last night were accepted.There was a fair export demand, with some i8} loads taken up.Millers bought 7 loads.The options sprang into excitement in tho early dealings, and on very free buying a sharp advance came about.At length the gain in prices was §@l}c.Cables were of higher and excited markets, with weather and crop news worse.Cold weather was complained of from the North-west.The close shows a reaction on realizing and a decline.Tnere were about 100,060 bush.wheat also reported as having been taken via nearby ports on New York account for export.Mr.E.NicLennan, 22 St.John street (Western Chambers), reports the Chicago grain and provision markets as follows :\u2014 CHICAGO, Aug.18, 1888.yesterday.Highest.Lowest.last year.Closi .g.Closing Opening.5 645 6 52} 7 925 7 90 anes CrcaGo, Aug.18.\u2014Cabies reported quieter but firm markets abroad, with fine weather for harvesting operations.Our market opened lower on newspaper reports that the crop damage was over estimated.Later in the day messages were received from reliable sources saying that considerable damage has been done by frost in Northern Dakota, and prices took an upward turn, the market finally closing firm at 87c asked Dacem- ber.Holders of cash property delivered freely yesterday and to-day, and we now look for free shipments of the contract grade, which for months has been locked up.Corn steady and without special feature, provisions strong with advancing tendency, and lard looks like going higher next week, closed at $8.95 September.British Breadstuffs and Provision Mar.Kets.The British breadstuff markets ara quiet but strong.Beerbohm\u2019s cable ad- vices to-day are as follows :\u2014Cargoes off coast, wheat, strong;

shippers nave taken enough to cause market to advance about 25c.per bbl and make the tone very firm.As the receipts of Long Island potatoes have not Leen very heavy thers has hardly been enough to supply all the trade and mary buyers have taken Jersey stock; this has given Jersey receipts a batter market and caused the whole market on round potatoes to be affected by the operations of two or three shippers.\u2014Claus Spreckels, the \u2018Sugar King,\u201d has been asked if the report was tras that he bad given up the idea of fighting the Sugar Trust.He replied that he occupied the same attitude toward the Sugar Trust companies that he did some months ago, when he came on to select a site to build his refinery.His attitude then was one of uncompromising fight.His refinery was now being rapidly erected and in a year would be turning out 8,000 barrels of sugar per day.Mr.Spreckels, in speaking of the strife of competition, said he had a greater ambition than the mere accumulation of money.He wanted {) use what capital he bad in furnishing lucrative employment to thousands of workingmen.\u2014A New York firm writes : The stocks of hemlock sole immediately on this market are materially reduced; still, the current receipts enable purchasers to secure moderate supplies, leaving little opportunity for buyers to anticipate their wants.Our outside quotations are gea- erally obtainable for any desirable parcels, as tanners are relieved of old parcels and \u201cclear-out\u201d lots.In acid middle seconds there is a short supply.Light weight sides of all grades are scarce, and are wanted at full prices.Union tanned is in active demand and stocks small Receipts of the week, 70,814 hemlock sides and 18,836 sides oak and union.Exports 46,261 sides, viz., 30,625 to England, 15,400 to the Continent and 236 to various ports.\u2014According to the new rule just enforced at all the ports of the Island of Cuba, navigation duties have been suppressed for all vessels belonging to nations with whom Spain has a commercial treaty, and in their stead a duty of $1 for each ton of goods landed and shipped has been established.This measure considerably increases the expenses on all goods imported and exported, as will be teen hereafter.A steamer measuring 1,760 tons can load 3,000 tons of goods, and will pay: On goods imported, $3,000; on goods exported, $3,000\u2014 £6,000.Same steamer paid bafore, 62kc for each ton of measurement ; $1,100.Difference, $1,900 more now than before.A recent telegram from Madrid explains that said duty is to be collected from the consignees and shippers of the goods, and not from the vessel, as stated ia the text of the law published at first.It seems certain that anothsr port in the Vuelta Absjo, that of San Cayetano, will soon be declared a port ot entry, and open to foreign trade.The inhabitants of the western part of the Island anticipate that the opening of this port will ba more favorable to their interest than that of Mariel, which took place last year.\u2014\u2014\u2014 MANITOBA CROPS.Barley Crop Sééured\u2014Slight Frost Bus No Doimnge to Wheat.[SPECIAL TO THE HERALD, | WIxNIPEG, Aug.18.\u2014There was a slight frost in Manitoba the night before last but no damage was done to the wheat crop.À big barley crop is already se- «ured.The weather here and all through the Province is very tine to-day, and vhere is no frost as yet in the Territories.\u2014\u2014 THE CHEESE MARKETS.(SPECIAL TO THE HEHALD,) Ocpexseurc, N.Y.Aug.18.\u20143400 boxes cheese were offered here to-night;

(2) the yeculiar appearance given to the country by the farms being divided and suv- divided into long narrow strips; (3) the unsightly piles of stones which disfigura the fields in all directions, evidently accumulations from year to year.This is notably the appearance of the couutry nearly the whole way from Levis to Trois Pistoles, and betokens rather primitive methods of farming.That the soil for the most part is fertiie is evident from its very appearance as well as from the healthy-looking crops growing wherever ordinary attention has been given to cultivation.It would seem that all that is wanted to make that part of the Province one of the richest farming districts in the Dominion is good surface drainags, occasional application of mussel wead (if that can procured)and a judicious rotation of crops.The land in many places gives evidence of having been cropped from year to year without change, with the result that its fertility is seriously exhausted.This would b> largely restored by a rest of a year or two in pasturige aud a change of crops, even without the application of manure.The division cf the farms into long narrow strips.naturally strikes Scotch ard English farmers as peculiar; bat, while it gives the appearaves of inconvenience and want of compactness, the Fre: ch farwers claim that it has advant- a; es\u2014the numerous lines of fences contributing to a deeper fall of snow on the fields which protects the grass roots in winter by preventing the frost from penetrating too deep into the soil.Still, for advantageous farming purposes the long, rarrow fields must be a great drawback; and it is a question if a good deal of the fencing could not be dispensed with by the planting qf rows and clumps of trees, which would be a practical application of the principles of forestry and Prove ornamental as well as useful.The appearance of huge piles of stones -ercumbering the fields cannot be excused on any principle of advantageous farming.They are neither ornamental mor useful, and in the aggregate prevent the cultivation of a considerable area of soil, besides being a serious impediment to farm work generally.To strangers passing through tte Province they give the appearance of want of thrift, and are apt to convey the impras- sion that the valley of the St.Lawrence is & poor farming country, and thus injure its reputation.By all means our French-Canadian farmers should remove the stone piles\u2014either convert them into fences or duanp them into places where they will not be an eyesore or prove an impediment to farm work.Their removal would improve the appearence of the country immentely and prove a substantial gain to the farmers themselves.There are points of practical importance to which our farmers should be urged to give attention.Primitive farming methods do not pay now-a-days, and there 18 no reason why some farmers should lag behind others in this respect.What is wanted is'that the French-Caua- dian newspapers should ventilate.the subject and set the farmers a-thinking; once they entered upon the work of reform they would be pretty sure to carry it out thoroughly.Members of Parliament might also do good service by giving their constituents practical advice on such importaut matters.The farmers only require the advantiges of improved methods of farming pointed out to them in a practical way to induca them {to enter upon the work of reform.The clergy, too, might do much good if they would supplement their religious teachings by occasional practical talks to their people on theso matters.Flevation of the standard of farming means the elevation of farmers in the social scale and a corresponding gain to religious and benevolent iustitotious.The farmers of our country, of ail nationalities, raquire to be fired with more ambition to excel in their calling, and all contributions t) that result by the press, our pnblic man, and the clergy of all denominations constitute truly patriotic work, which will have its reward in the healthy development of the agricultural capadi.ties of our country.4 QUESTION OF LABOUR.Hon.James G.Blaine on landing from the steamship City of New York, on his return from England, was the object of a serenade, supposed to have been the spontaneous offering of the labour element ; but, in reality, the result of the engineering and the expenditures of that capital for which the fiscal policy of the Republican party has dons so much.In his reply \u201cthe plumed knight\u201d declared \u201cthe issue befors the people to be from first to last a question of labour,\u201d and presented to his auditors the alternative of \u201c living in as poor houses, eating as poer food and ra- ceiving as low wages as the operatives in England receive,\u201d or * bettering your condition, the condition of your children and your children\u2019s children \u201d by \u201c maintaining the industrial system of protected interests that prevails in the United States.\u201d It would not be exceedingly difficult, we think, to show that where poverty does exist in the Unitel States\u2014and there is plenty of it there\u2014 the squalor and the misery are greater than in the case of the majority of old country people, while, as concerns crime, there is among the lower classes resident in the United States a depth of depravity which it cannot be said has been attained among the people of the old country.While making this observation, it is only fair to say that this condition of things is probably due to the fact that the United States have become the last refuge for thousands of the worst foreign criminals, under whose joint auspices the state of things here ra- ferred to has been brought about.It 18 not the intention now to talk about the \u201cpoor food\u201d and \u201clow wages\u201d with which Mr.Blaine sought to terrify his hearers, but it may not be out of place to repeat the remarks of an influential American paper that, if Mr.Blaine be its earnest exponent, \u201cthe keynote of the Republican campaign is one of undisguised demagogy.\u201d Who, it may be asked, have, in the main, been the parties principally benefitted by the Ra- publican fiscal policy ?Not the working classes ; for however \u2018tariffs my ba voted up to suit the capitalists, no tariff has yet been devised by the protectionists by which labour has been adequately acknowledged.Ths manufacturers have had the sole benefit of the tariff laws, for, as the evidence taken before the Canadian Labour Commission showed, labour has obtained no increased rewards, while the capitalists who have put un the colossal buildings and reared the tall chimneys have reaped immense fortunes.The testimony we refer to demonstrated that the Redpaths,\u2014who spend their Cana- dian-made fortunes in England\u2014and many others who might be mentioned, have had all the benefit; and that, if anything, there have been mora oppressions than ever upon the masses who were taught upon election platforms, to believe that the Governmant were goin z to bring back to them the gollen age As has been the experience in the United States, the working classes have baen compelled to fully realize that while wages cannot be voted up or voted down by Parliament, taxes can be increased to their disadvantage and luss.It is worthy of note\u2014and Canadians sheuld not lcse sight of the fact\u2014that the Republican party of the United States\u2014 and they are in a measure synonymous with the Conservatives of Canada\u2014 enumerated in their platform six schemes for spending the immense surplus at rresent existing, and only one alterna- tive\u2014the abolition of the whiskey tax\u2014 for preventing it.Why the Republicans are not prepared to reduce the tariff is that it is upon the American manufacturers, the trusts and monopolies, which owe their existence to the high tariff that the Republican party dep:nd for that aid and financial support on which they rely for their maintenance in power.As President Foster, of the Republican League, wisely put it, \u201cif they\u2014the\u2014manufacturers\u2014who made large fortunes, when times are prosperous, think the Republican party is going to maintain a high protective corps for their tenefit, and the men who do the work in that party are going to keep up the expenses of a campaign out of their own pockets, leaving them to reap the fruits of the tariff without any deduction for political expenses, they are very greatly mistaken.\u201d The capitalists are for these reasons called upon to come down and \u201cgend along another ten thousand \u201d or as much more or legs as they feel disposed to do to the campaign fund, In a word, while the monopo ists are protected and encouraged the only thing that is done for the unprotecjed worker is to endaa- vour to cajole him as Mr.Blaine did, into the belief that his, will-ba th> low wages, poor food and misery that | were represented to ba the lot of the un- | protected British workingman.| As an instance of how the rant and demagogism of the Republican protectionists is supplemented, it is noted that | a well-known Brooklyn manufacturer has | declared that if tariff reduction is ac- ! complished and the result is to reduce , the amount of his profits hs will make | the loss good by lowering the wages of | his employees.He has acknowiedg:d { that in a good season his profits are as | high as 33 ver cent.and he doas not, if ; he can help it, intend* ta take any less.| Most men are glad to get 10 per cent.net : profit from their invested capital, but the protected manufacturer upon both sides of the lines is not satisGed with so ham- ble a revenue; with profits, indead, that bear a more reasonable proportion to the profits derived by men in unprotected industries.The.threat of the manufacturer in question reminds us of threats tha! have heen made on the o:casion of at least every election in Canada of late years, and shows how hollow is th> Pry- tectionist\u2019's regard far labour, whose rap- resentatives it is eadeavoured to fl atter into the belief that so much is being done for it by high tariff.\u201cNO SURRENDER?! It will not be forgotten that when Prince Bismarck advocated in the Reichstag the new army bill, he made a speech which caused considerable disquiet on the continent and lad people to suppose that the great desire of himself and bis master, Kaiser Wilhelm the First, was to have a renewal of hostilities with France, in which event should tbe German troops ouce again enter Paris they would not leave it without more forcibly impressing upon it the marks of their presence.Peaceful counsels being, however, all-prevalent at Versailles, there has so far been no pre- \u2018text upon which the Germans\u2014who are now the great military power of Europe \u2014should attack their former adversary.There were no Bonapartes, lusting for military glory, to arouse the susceptibilities of the French nation, and with subsequent more peaceful declarations on the part of the man of * blo od and iron,\u201d the affair passed over, no doubt not to the dissatisfaction of the aged Kaiser, Bismarck and Von Moltke, who had baited their badger, but he would not draw.On coming to the throne, however, the present William made further disquieting deliverances, and, as was specially noted at the time, his first address was to the army\u2014and not to the psople, nor to their constitutional representatives.He declared Germany to be a military nation and there the matter rested, his next announcements being of a mach more pacific character, the only deduction from his subsequent statements being similar to that of Napoleon the Third just before he forced Germany to fight, being that \u201cthe Empire was peace ! He intimated that it was the policy of himself and his advisers to promote reforms at hom3 and im prove tbe conditions of Lis paople,an1 by his personal and cordial intercourse with the Czar, the Emparor of Austria, and the King of Portugal, le gave what may be supposed to be, evidence of his sincerity.He has, however,shown no disposition to conciliate France, nor indeed, Great Britain, for that matter, which hss becowe to be generally regarded as the natural ally of the nation across the channel.On Thurslay, however, on the occasion of the unveiling of the monumeut at Frankfort to tbe Jate Prince Frederick Charles be proposed a tcast to German unity and in the course of his remagss de:lar- ed that forty-six millions of Germans would cie rather than deliver a single stone of Alsace-Lorraine to Franca.Here we have the old gall of bitterness distinctly asserting itself, and the manifestation of an unquestionable disoosi- tion to provoke the French Republic into some act which shall serve as an excuse for him to launch out against it the million and a half of men whom Le can at once call out.TRUSTS IN THE UNITED STATES 1t is worthy of note that, at the present moinent, the existing trusts aad combines in the United States are hpfore three tribunals\u2014viz., the Civil Courts, the great assizs of the nation, as represente | by Congress, and the court of final ap- peal\u2014the people.As coacerns the legal j rocess, the Sugar Trust proper, represented by Messrs.Havemeyer, Matthies- sen and others, it is alleged by the attorney General, that although they ara not legally incorporated they have assumed to act as though they were so incorporated, that they have taken the rights and the franchises of a corporat: name, hold property in trust and issus and divide stock into shares.These acts done by an unincorporated body are alleged by the Attorney-General to be usurpations of the power of a legally incorporated bocy, against the welfare of the people, and prayer is made that the court enjoin the defendants from further acis of usurpation.As concerns the North River Refining Company it is sat forth that the defendant is a lawfully incorporated body, and that for the purpose of establishing and maintaining a monopoly of the manufacture and sale of sugar, of controlling the market, of raising or lowering prices at pleasure and of regulating the volume of production of sugar, it combined and confederated with all other sugar refineries in the State, and with many refineries outside of the state ; that the agreement was that all refineries not than parties to the compact should be induced or forced to become parties thereto, and that the capital stock of all such companies should be assigned to the trust proper, by it to be divided and the profits from all such companies to be divided, and the price and product of the manufactures of all such companies to be controlled, increased, or lessened as the trust proper might deem fit.These acts ara alleged by the Attorney-General to be in excess of the powers of a lawfully incorporated company and detrimental to the welfare of the people.These respective issnez bave to be decided according to the interpretation of existing legal provisions, and if the evidence be sufficient to bring the respective combinations under the provisions of the law, thera can be little doubt as to the result, unless, as wus said to have been the ease in the days of Vanderbilt, the judges are the property of the combinations.Then we further note that certain American legislatures who are notowned by the monopolists are becoming serions- ly alarmed by the aggressive metho ls of the \u2018\u201cTrusts,\u201d and Seaators Raazan and Sherman have introduced billg int» Congress tn meet the evil, which, if passed, Kill break np these associations The monopolists of the Unite! Statos are running riot just now under tha nro- tection system, and are determine l to squeeze the public for the las: pouuy 4 that can be got from them.The ramifications of the Trust system are so wide and so deep that it is needless for us t> atteint to describe them, suffice it to say tuat there are many who believe that if the State takes no action the people themselves will, There are others who believe that the evil is one with which State Legislatures are powerless to deal, and it is for Congress itself to take action as well by repressive legislation, a3 by withdrawing from ths trusts that fiscal protection which they have thus far enjoyed.Public sentiment demands protection at the hands of Conzress and will have it if it has to change the entire complexion of the national representation, and doubtless, at the coming election, the massas will have their say and will do their utmost to return to Congress and to the highest offices in the State, mon who are not the tools of trusts and the craatures of the combines.THE REAL ANNEXATIONISTS.Because the Liberal party desire to acquire the most valuable market in the world for Canadians, and to stop the public robbery that is the foundation of Sir John Macdoaald\u2019s policy, his organs whine in a pitiful kind of way, and say that the Liberals are aunnexationists.That there has been a considerabls inclination towards annexation during Sir John's last regime is shown by the fact that about 500,000 Canadians, a large proportion being Conservatives, have annexed themselves to the United States to escape the present destructive administration, and that of the million or so immigrants that bave bean brought into Canada, largely at the public expenss, nearly three-fourths of them have shown in the most practical way their preference for annexation.They have gone t> the States.If it could be told to the people of Canada by an infallible authority that the country would ba compelled to endure another ten years of Sir Jobn Macdonald's rule, there would be such an exodus, of both parties, from the Dominion, that the Americans would suppose a pestilence had broken out in Canada.Itis only the certainty which is felt that Sir John's regime is fast approaching its end that makes Canadians patient under the ills they bear.The return of Sir John to power at the next general elections\u2014fortunately the most improbable thing in the world\u2014would set Canada back for a generation.SINCE THE CasTors have ceased to support the Orange-Tory party, Sir John Macdonald's organs lose no opportunity of insulting them.The Gazette, yesterday, returned to the attack by saying that \u201cThe Castors don\u2019t want harmony ; \u201cit is bondle they are after.\u201d NorxixG is more amusing than the coa- cern which the Tory newspapers show, because of alleged difficulties experienced by Mr.Mercier in the management of his party.Their anxiety is duly appreciated, of course, but they ara unno:es- sarily distressing themselves; Mr.Mercier is getting along with safety and despatch.\u2014 The Montreal Typographical Uaion\u2019s picnic, which took place at St.Helea's Island on Saturday, was a great success.There were a large number of prizes and no lack of contestants.The clerk of the weather had entirely recovered after his late outbreak, and the visitors were numerous and well pleased with the ca- tertainment.\u2014\u2014\u2014 TeE insinuation of the Winnipag Cull conveyed in the following paragraph is natural to its author :\u2014 A question naturally arises whether it is because there is more bodie for Martin and Greenway in the Northern Pacitie deal than they could hope to reap from the other (the H B.road) which would be in the couaatry\u2019s favour.The Call\u2014and indeed another Tory journal which has made a similar re- mark\u2014probably knows how railways manage Tory governments, and supposes that Liberal governments can be \u201cowned\u201d in the same way.WHAT OTHERS SAY.{Toronto Globe.]} The Globe has of late been predicting, on what authority save thatof spseches made years ago does not appear, that Sir John Macdonald will attempt à coup by vaulting to th: Opposition platform on this question.The tone of the Government organs gives no coior to such a conjecture.That amounts to nothing as an index of coming policy.The London Free Press right-about-faced on Protection in one day at the word of command.The Montreal Gazette did not take much longer.The Æmpire would have ty rat in one minute if told tp do so.Sir John Macdonald always nails his weathercocks through the tails with their heals pointing where he says tke wind is blowing from.[Canadian Gazette.] The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council last week decided to refuss leave to appeal from the judgment of the Canadian Courts affecting the owuershin of one-sixth part of the island of Anticosti, The real question at issue was merely vus of the right of possession of this section of the islacd as between Dame Forsyth the original holder, and Bury the subsequent possessor.This point the Canadian Courts decided in favour of Bury.Dame Forsyth now sought to establish the existence of a doubt a9 to the validity of the Dominion Act by which tne preseat p(ssessors of the island were incorporated 4s the Anticosti Company.That cons stitutional question had not, however been argued before the Canadian Courts when the question of granting the decree of gale was under review, and their Lordships held that it was too lata now ture-onen the question.THe Agvertising Department of \u201cThe Merald\u201d ix under the charge of Me Je sep Mitehell.NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.MONET TO LEND ON CITY PROPERTY, 185 Address, Mou rt Hernldalin INTERCOLONIAL RAILWAY.A Specimen of the Government's Administration of Railways\u2014Does Mr.Pons Know How it is Carried On ?WHO POCKETS THE FINES?\u2014 The people of the Upper Provinces have no idea of the almost universal dissatisfaction which exists inthe Maritime Provinces with the management of tae I.C.R., which is denounced by Conservatives as well as Liberals.This dissatisfaction is not confined to the business or travelling patrons of the road; the employees of all grades, and without regard to party politics, are intensely dissatisfied with the treatment to which they are subjected.Train men are held responsible for accidents over which they have absolutely no cuntrol\u2014such as breaking of axles and car wheels and damage to rolling steck due to faulty construction, and are suspended or fined accordingly.Political favoritism is the bane of the service.Officials or employees who have influential political friends at their back can do pretty much as they please and come out \u201con the top of the heap\u201d no matter what peccadilloes they may be guilty of ; but woe betide the unfortunate official or employee who blunders into an offence, no matter how trivial, if he has no political influence to stand between him and danger or happens to be a Liberal.The result of this vicious system of mismanagement is that many of the best men on the road, who have been for years in the service, are leaving in disgust and going on to United States or \u2018Western railways.A few illustrations as to how men are treated will be in order.Some years ago an obstruetion was placed on the track in New Brunswick.Fortunately the engine driver saw it in time to prevent an accident.The miscreant who placed the obstructions was caught, but owing to lack of positive legal proof escaped punishment, and the ofticial who investigated the matter gravely recommended that the conductor of the train should be fined for lLeing obstructed! And he was fined, by having $20 deducted from his month\u2019s pay.Tnat was Schreiberism with a vengeance.Last winter a freight train got canght in a season storm on the northera division, in New Brunswick.In getting out of the drift the train broke apart, and the locomotive and some of the cars went forward to the station, leaving half the train with the conductor and one brakeman on the track.The engine driver did not discover the accident till he got to tha station.In the meantinie a furious drifting storm had set in with the thermometer away below zero, and the conductor was afraid tosend a brakesman to the nearest station\u2014four miles\u2014lest he should perish in the storm.He, however, put out signals to warn approaching trains.In due time, the engine of the broken train got back to the beleagarel portion and drew it into the semapnory signal at the station.The brakeman volanteerad to goto the station aud report, leaving the conductor in clarge of the traia, which was kept standing on the main line outside the semaphore for one hour and fifteen minutes.Yew peopie will discover wherein the conductor in atl this had been guilty of any serious fault.Yet that employes, who had been oa the roud thirteen years\u2014five years a conduc- tor\u2014and who never had had a black mark scored against him, was suspended for two months, aud reduced to the rank ofa brakeman.He was a Liberal, and a certain Tory of- ticial had been watching for a chance to get him into trouble.The expectation Was that,rather than submit to reduction in rauk, be would tlhirow up his job and thus wake room fur some pet ot the official in question.As Le could not afford ts go idle he accepted the reduced pusi- tion.A train despatcher gave a wrong order to trains, which might have resulted in a collision, but fortunately did not.He was uuceremoniously \u201cbounced\u2019\u2014sev- ere, but proper punishment.Another train despatcher gave a wrong crossing order to two trains.The result was that a terrible collision was avoided by the space of four fret.\u2018That train despatcher was not dismissed, he was not suspended even for a day.He was fined a small amount and retained in bis position.Explanation\u2014he was brother-in-law of a Tory District Superintendent and bad other political influences at his back.The fact is, I.C.R.employees, and especially those suspected or known to bu Liberals, are subjected to a system of espionage which is disgraceful to the the service, and which is fast driving the best and most experienced men off the road.On pay days employees often find that a fine has been deducted from their month\u2019s pay, and are rarely furnished with an explanation, even when they demand it.They simply have to submit to the extortion or give up their situation, so relentless is the systematic tyranny which Schreiber has impressed upon the officials immediately under him.What becomes of these fines is a question no one outside the ring has been able to ascertain.There is no return of them furnished in any publie document, and they are not mentioned in the LC.R.annual report.Do they go into the Tory election fund?Judging from what is knwn at some points the fines imposed on employees along the whole line must aggregate a large sum in the course of the year.The matter is one which might well be made the subject of parliamentary enquiry.The blackmailing features of the Customs Department are scarcely more reprehensible than the tyranny, extortion, espionage and favoritism which characterize the management of the Inter- colonial Railway.The root of the trouble is that the Minister of Railways has no practical knowledge of railway management, (except in the matter of railway subsides) and is therefore wholly at the mercy of Schreiber, who is thoroughly bated from one end of the line to the other, by the publle and the employees.Selfish and tyrannical by nature, and utterly devoid of all natural feelings of sympatby for the employees of the road, Le rules everybody under him with a rod of iron from the Superintendent and District Superintendents down to the humblest oflicial or employee.The result is that universal dissatisfaction prevails with the management of the road, except in the case of the few favorites who have political influence behind them, and even they are uneasy as to the ultimate results of such a system.MARITIME Amherst, Aug.13, 1888.TO LET OR FOR SALE.The Bradsireet.Company \u201ccing abou\u2019 to TFINOLVE 10 its new « thees, No 17!

discoutinuel, July 21 13A 1% 6 THE THINGVALLA IN PORT.Pe \u2014 by One of the Saved.The following graphic account was given by a young druggist named Jansen Castherg, who was a passenger on board the Thingvalla, enroute to Galveston, Tex., with his sister :\u2014 i \u201cIt was just about daylight, and all with the exception of myself and a few friends were asleep, when all of a sudden we heard a scuffling of feet on deck and then a crunching noise.Then for a moment all was still.In a second all the batsengers were out of their berths, and all rushing for the companionway.The screaming and din were deafening, particularly from the lower deck, where the people with families were located.After considerable difficulty I got on deck, and rushed to see what tis damage was, and just Liere I wish to state most emphatically that no whistles were blown on the Thingvaila before the collision.\u201cI went to the front of the vessel and saw a gap of about twelve feet.On the left side the plates wera rolled up, and on the top of them lay a part of tte corpge of a man, and the whole stem was covered with human blood aad fragments of flesh, which were soon washed off by the waves.The captain then ordered every one on deck, and after an examination the passengers were told there was no danger, and they became quiet.The women on the occasion behaved splendiily.On the right side the plates were broken off completely, and I saw the bow of cur ship go clean into the stateroom of an officer of the Geiser, who climbed up by the chain attached to the anchor.Daring this time there was a terrible rainstorm which was more the cause of the intense darkness than any fog.Then the Geiser began to sink gradually, and in eight or ten minutes passed down out of sight.There was an effort made on our ship to lower the boats, but it wus very slowly done.It was sodark that,we could not see whether they were human beings or net that were floating around the ship, but a man\u2019s voice screamed out in the midst of the excita- ment that he was bitten by a shark.The screaming was something awfal.It was fully twenty minutes before the boats were lowered.We all stood on deck looking at the people Leing saved but powerless to do anything ourselves.I saw thiree boats of the Geiser, one turned upside down, another smashed in the stern, and the third had two men who were holding a woman between them, who seemed to be dead.Several had life preservers on, but were swallowed up in the whirlpool made when the Geiser went down.Some came again to the surface and were picked up.A number of us got life preservers and stood ready ty cast them out, Lut Imust say I wondered thatso few were seen after the ship's sinking, A great number must have beeu drowned in their berths.In about an hour and a half the boats returned and the saved were hoisted on board by ropes and partly by the aid of a safe ladder which ad been lowered over the side.When they were got on deck they were each made to sit down, and they were given a glaes of brandy apiece.They seemed for the mest part to be in good spirits, except one man, who was covered with blocd.The doctor sent him to the hospital.The boats were sent away again, but they only found a dead woman.The immigrants were well treated by the people on the Thingvalla.Tho passengers and crew then went to work to shifc the Narrative .cargo from the stern to the stern, as well as the chains, anchors, etc, on the Thingvilla.This bad a good effect on the passengers, and all got cheerful and hopeful, as all we had to fear was a storm,as the shattered bulkhead had becn backed with planks and hogsheads, and could stand a little shock.We wer making about two knots an hour when | at noon we saw the Wieland.After some talk between the captains we were taken on board the Wieland, being only allowed to take a small valise each.It's wy first experience of à voyage across the Atlantic, and I think it will last me my lifetime.\u201d The passengers of the Thingvalla were registered in Castle Garden this morning and only await the arrival of their baggage.A number of the women seem not to bave fully recovered the shock yet.=

and St.Cunegonde have, at the ine stance of the Provincial Board of Health, demanded from the governors of ths Prot:stant Insane Hospital, plans, etc., of the yroposed mode of drainage connected with that institution, I desire to solicit answers to the following questions: 1.By what right or authority do they invoke, or by whom are they erhp were 1 to make any such demand to the Council of Montreal ?2.Is there existing in connection with the institution in question any danger to public heaith ?Are the Provincial Board in possession of any facts in reference to the water of the St.Lawrence and its pollution from drainage from similar institutions?If go will they kindly furnish it to us.4.Is it not a fact that Kingston takes its water supply above the city?5.Is it not a fact that the Provincial Penitentiary is situated about two miles\u201d above this point on the river side, and one mile still further on is located the Rockwood Insane Hospital?6.Isit not a fact fithat within these two institutions are confined over cne thousand inmates, and that the drainage is discharged into the river or bay?7.Do they learn from these facts that there exists now, or ever has existed,any danger of sickness?1 have no sympathy | either with national or religious prejudices that have been raised against these gentlemen on this question.I can not, however, close my eyes to one fact, viz, that they have been induced to act as they have done without fully understanding the motives of their prompters.I can only speak for myself, and so tar es 1 am concerned, will do nothing to prevent these municipal bodies from obtaining tuch plans as we possess; but I am not disposed to furnish them at the expense of the subscribers to the funds for the establishing of this institution.They have cost a considerable amount of money.I wish to add further whilst on this subject, that it has been asserted that by the erection of the hos- \"HE MONTREAL tivs ** D AND DAILY

map making that cannot fail to be appreciated by business men.The atlas contains the most complete maps of all portions of the Dominion of Canada and the United Stases, as also excellent maps of all the foreign countries.The work contains nearly 400 pages of maps with dates and statistics.Immediately preceding each map is a most ingenious ready reference index giving the true location of all towns and villages, togetner with the population of each, designating telegraph, money order offices, banks, post-offices, etc., etc, in each.By the index a piace can be located on its proper map as easily as a word can be found in the directory.The maps are excellent specimens of the engravers art; the coloring is not too gaudy but pleasing to the eye.A very valuable feature of the work is the tracing by hand of each railroad in a separate column, The publisher, Mr.A.A.Grant, who has had a long experience in his line, and bis knowledge of what is den anded by business men is evident cn every page.CANADIAN PACIFIC PUSH.(New York Times.) Eastern railroad circles have been sar- prised by the announcement that the Canadian Pacific road bas signed contracts with St.John and European receivers of Western grain and other merchandise to transport the freight to St.John this Fall, and such shipments are to begin the latter part of September.All the rails in Maine will then be laid save one section, and existing roads can be used until December, when this will be completed.At Greenville, at the foot of Mocsehead Lake, trains wiil leave the Canadian Pacific, travelling over the Bangor and Piscataquis to Milo, thence north to Brownville, where the main line will be again taken.The State of Maine has now the only American road tappicg the Canadian Pacific, and communication that way to the West will be opened in one month.The last mile to be completed is known as the Greene wood car p mile and will cost $300,000 to grade, \u2014\u2014\u2014 TBEY INSURED THEIR LIVES.A Sad bat Snggestive Story From the {Mountains of Tennessee.The facts of rather a peculiar case of life insurance have just been made known in Tennesse, There lived in one of the remote agricultural districts of that State two brothers, Sam and Bill Henly.They were twins, and the age of 35 years found them unmarried.They had no relatives.They were devoted to each other, and in common owned and cultie vated a small farm.One day, a number of years ago, Sam, addressing his brother, said : \u201c Bill, I've got a schemes by which one of us can make gome mouey.\u201d \u201cIf one, why not both of us?\u201d Bill asked.\u201cPllexplain.We will go to town and have our lives insured for ten thousand dollars each.I will keep up your policy and you keep up mine.If I die first, you get ten thousand dollars.If you die first 1 get ten thousand.\u201c That is & good idea,\u201d Bill replied.\u201cWe are likely to live long, aad oue of ue, at least, will be well cared for in old age.\u201d The policits were taken out.At Grst the payments wers easy enough, but at lergily when abad crop year came the brothers were 80 hard pressed that they were cot pelled to sell one of their horses, \u201cIt comes pretty hard,\u201d Sam remarked, \"ut it will pay one of us in the long run.All we one in this life we owe to each viber, remember.\u201d \u201cYes, and we will try to meet our as- cessments, Lut they do seem to be com- bg pretty thick.\u201d The next season a wet spell \u201d almost rnined the early crops.A heavy assessment came and the brothers had to part with a fav.rite yoke of steers.\u201cStriking us harder and harder,\u201d said Bill, \u201cbut we must stand it.\u201d \u201cYes.\u201d Sam replied, \u201ceven-il we are compelled to do without coffee this season.\u201d Two years later such a financial disaster overtook the brothers that they were forced to mortgage their farm, and, the vear following, the mortgage was f reclcsed.\u201cThis is extremely hard,\u201d said Sam, \u201cbut we must put up with it.We have à couple of axes left, and we will chop cord-wocd for a living.Old man Gray says that ve may have his cabin over yonder in the woods at reasonable rental.We've got no bedding, but we can sleep on the floor.By working hard we can get a little something to ¢at occasionally and keep our policies paid up\u201d \u201cYes, we must now make every possible sacrifice to keep up our insurance.\u201d They rented the cabin, slept on the flcor and had nothing to eat but corn bread and bacon.In the winter they were almost frozen, and in the summer they were nearly roasted, but their devo- t on to each other kept their heroic de- armination from beuding.One morning several days ago Sam, upon awaking.said \u201cBill, I can\u2019t work to-day, for I am as sick as a horse.\u201d \u201cYou hit me, then, Sam, for I, using a comparison almost as tims-honored, am as sick as a dog.\u201d ÆTrey did not get up during the day, and the next morning a naighbor who chanced to call, summoned a physician.The doctor pronounced their illness swamp fever.They grew delirous, but cne day\u2014with that rationality which sometimes smiles upon a victim just bee fore his demise\u2014they recovered consciousness.The doctor told them that they could notlive through the day.\u201cSam,\u201d said Bill, \u201care you going too ?\u201d \u201cYes, Bill, I am with you.\u201d \u201clts pretty tough, isn\u2019t it, Sam ?\u201d \u201cA wet coonskin is no comparison.\u201d A few moments later, vellow shadows, the last respects of swamp fever, the p.P.¢.cards of that insidious disease, lay upon their faces.Just as the neighbors were turning away a fellow who bad just come from the post-office brought notices of another assessment.\u2014Opie P.Reid.\u201ca Nothing Bat The Truth.Srrs, \u2014 Il bave found Dr.Fowlers Extract of Wild Strawberry to be the best remedy I ever used for dysentery and all summer complaints among children, and I think it is recommended noue too highly.\u2014Ahie A.Reagh, Victoria Vale, Annapolis Co., N.S.THE HAYTIAN REVOLUTION History of the Events of the Black Republic.President Salomon in Exile.The recent disturbances in the Black Republic date back to the early part of July, when two atiempts were made\u2014 on the 4th and 7th of that month\u2014to burn the city of Port-au-Prince.The first of these fires was started in the Chamber of Deputies, and spread until about a tenth of the city had been consumed.Three days later the house of the Minister of Justice was fired and another large part of the city was laid in ashes.Both fires were of incendiary origin, and in each case a day had been selected when there was a high wind.Many of the most important buildings inthe place were burned, including the buildings of the Departments

solliers themselves could not be dependel on, and several of the foreign consulates and legations were guarded by detachments of 1 sailors from a French war vessel in the harbor.Further troubles has been looked for all along, and it has been charged by President Solomon's enemies that lie had made provision himself for a1evolution.It was asserted thut he had dep sited in his own name with Paris bankers a large amount of public money.The trouble is supposed to have had its origin in an epidemic of Chagres fever, which had ravaged the town.In consequence of this epidemic all the people possessing suflicient means had fled from the city, and thus left a free field for pillage, of which the lawless and revolutionary element promptly availed itself.There was no eilicient police system, and the supine authorities were unable to cope with the mob.THE FUGITIVE PRESIDENT.Louis Etienne Felicite Salomon, the fugitive President of Hayti, is a remarkable looking man.He is described as a massive, broad-shouldered giant, 6 feet 4 inches in height, with the physical proportions of a gladiator and weighing about 500 pounds, but without the usual signs of grossness.His face is jet black, but of the Caucasian type.He has snow- white locks, keer, restless eyes, glittering like diamonds in a setting of jet; high, intellectual forehead, and a form, despite his advanced age, erect as a pillar of stone, with a dignified air.Salomon was born in Aux Cayes in 1820, and is of pure African blood.His family is an old one and well-to-do, belonging to the class known under the colonial regime as \u201c men of color,\u201d made up of free blacks and mulattoes.In his youth he received the best education that could be obtained under French teachers and became an accomplished linguist.He is a person of much more than ordinary ability, and is noted for his brilliancy as a conversationalist, When he was about 18 years of age Salomon entered the Government service under the Administrator of Finance in his native place, and it was while in that position that the eventful revolution of 1843 occurred.HIS ADVANCEMENT.After a series of unfortuaate events, such as the constant changes of Govern- merts by acts of violence, including a blocdy civil war, Colonel Salomon was in 1848 placed ut the heud of the financial administration of Aux Cayes.After Lis coup d'etat President Soulouque appointed Colcnel Salman as Minister of Linance, Foreign Relations and Public Inetruction and Justice, positions which Le filled with ability and Lonesty during Seulouque\u2019s Republican Administration, and algo during his reign as Emperor of Hayti under the name of Fanstia L, from 1849 to 1859, On the fall of tho rs- public be was created Duke of &t.Louis du Sud, in 1849, and general in 1655.During the disastrous campaizn against tLe Doniinicians, on the fall of the Fuopire, iu 1859, and tue re-establish- ment of the Republic, with Geffrarl 28 President, General Salomon left for France.A few months later an alleged measure of public safety was taken to keep Lim away, an unsuccessful revolutionary movement having occurred at Chol- lais, near Aux Cayes, in May, 1862, Many friends and relatives of the general, among them his eldest brother were seized, sentenced to death and executed.The general, than at St- Thomas, was included in the sentence, as being in contumacy.fu 1865, while in Kingston, Jamaica, he was made a victim of the 1eign of terror which succeeded the affair known as the Morant Bay massacre, when, under Governor Eyre, the planters and British officials, civil and military, butchered in cold blood over 1,000 poor, inoffensive negro men anll women, The general, after brutal treatmens from tha British, was expelled from the island.At the fall of Getfrard, in March, 1867, Solomon was appointed by Salnave.then provisional President, as Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of Hayti near the French, Euglish and Spanish Governments.In June following be was confirmed in that position by Salnave, who was then President of the Republic.SENTENCED TO DEATH.In January, 1870, a successful revolution having overthrown Salnave, who was ultimately shot on the 15th of that month, the Provisional Government dismissed Salomon from his post and forbade bim to return from Iayti.In March, 1873, Salomon was again sentenced to death in contumacy.General Salomon did not retura to his native land until after the election to the preeidency to the Boisrond Canal, in 1876.Notwithstanding there was a powerful political party in the country opposed to him, he received the personal friendship and protection of Canal, but was again gent into exile in March, 1878, when his life became endangered theough the attempts at revolution by Gen.Louis Tanis.ELECTED PRESIDENT.General Solomon became the leading candidate for the vacant Presidency, to which he was elected by the National Assembly on the 23d of October, receiving the votes of 82 out of the 87 members present.From that date up to the recent disturbances, he has remained the ractical dictator of the Black Rapublic.His tenure of office, however, has bren at all times insecure.As early as Jaly, 1880, General Boyer Bazelais started a congpiracy, which, however, was soon Suppressed, some of the captured leaders being sent into exile and others put to death.From that time until the spring cf 1883 there was a ser.es of conspiracies and uprisings which culminated in the pital on the existing site, the adjoining | C h i Id ren Crv for Pitc her\u2019s Castoria.last-named year in & formidable insurrection in which the mulattoes througli- out the Republic were pitted againat the blacks.RE-ELECTED FOR SEVEN YEARS, The suppression ot this formidable insurrection served to consolidate his power, and in June, 1886,he was reelected President for a term of seven years by the unanimous vote of the National Assembly.From that time up to the beginning of the recent troubles the country has remained at comparative peace.General Salomon will probably be able to live comfortably in exile, but it is not certain that he has baen able to amass the great fortune that he is re- portrd to have invested securely in France.The statement recently made that be had sent $3,500,000 out ot the country can hardly be true, as there was not that amount of ready coin in the country.Hayti has, in fact, a contract with the Credit Industriel of Francs, which collects the revenue and banks it, and therefore the President had no actual control over the fvnds of the Republic.His.nominal salary was only $25,000 a year.He is married t> a French lady, and both he and his wife are devout Rowman Catholics.ROTYS OF THE DRAMA.The second tour ot whe Idwin

However, the guard was holding the -door open, go there was nothing for it but to get out, which she did, taking Dick by the haud, a proceeding that necessarily put her identity beyond a doubt.\u2018The momeut she got her foot on to the platform, the crowd saw her, and there arose such a tremendous shout of welcome that she very nearly took re uge again in the carriage.For as moment she stood hesitating, and the crowd seeing how sweet and beautiful she was (for the three months of sea air bad made her stouter and even more lovely), cheered again with that peculiar euthusiasin which a discerningz public always shows for a pretty face.Du even while she stood bewildered on the platform ehe heard a loud \u201c Make way\u2014 make way there!\u201d and saw the multi tude being divided by a little knot o\u201d officials, who were escorting somcbody dresged in widow's weeds.In another second there was a cry of Joy, and a sweet, pale-faced little lady had run at the child Dick, and was hugging him against her heart, and sobbing and laughing both at once.\u201cOh! my boy! my boy!\u201d cried Lady Holmhurst, for it was she, \u201cI thought you were lead\u2014long ago dead ! \u201d And then she turned, and, before all the people there, clung about Augusta\u2019s neck and kissed Ler and blessed her, because she had saved her only child, and half removed the dead weight of lier desolation.Whereat the crowd cheered, and wept, and yelled, and swore with excitement, and blessed their stars that they were there to sce.And then, in a haze of noise and excitement, they were led through the cheering mob to where a carriage and pair were stanoing, and were helped into it, Mrs.Titomas beinx placed on the front gest, and Lady Holmhurst and Augusta on the back, the former with the gasping ick upon her knee.And row little Dick is out of the story, Then ancttier event occurred, which we must zo back a little to*explain.When Eustace Mecson had come ts town,aiter being formally disinherited, he had managed to get a billet as Latin, and Old Engtish reader in a publishing house of repute.As it happened, on this very afterncon he was strolling down the Strand, having finished a rather stiif |.day\u2019s work, and with a mind filled with these idle and somewhat confused odds and ends of speculation with which most brain workers will be acquainted.He locked older and paler than when we last met him, for sorrow and misfortune had laid their Leavy bands upon him.When Augnsta Lad departed, he had discovered ti:at he was head over heels in love with her in that unfortunaie way \u2014jor ninety-nine times out of a hundred Ît is unfcitunate\u2014in which many men of susceptibility do occasionally fail in love in their yo ith\u2014s way that brands the heart for life in à fashion that can no more le ellued than the stamp cf à Lot iron can be effacei from the plhicicat ina», Sich an affection which Wwretaltogether où the earti\u2014aiil, wnen it OVerreu+& an, prove either ths greatest Lessing of Ing life or ons of the heaviest, m- se enduring curses that a Maliguart \u2018nie can beap Upon bis head For it pe webicves his desire, even though he ærve Lis seven years, surely for Lim Jie win le robued of half it evil.But 2 fw lose her, either through misfortune « r Lecatse he gave ull thi.to ene wiv Cid net understand the gir, Or cLe Wl-o i0-hed at love and on berseli as a cur.eicy wherewith Lu buy her place snd tie luxury of days, then he will be of ii mien among the most miserable.1 or hunting can give him back that whic) Las une from him.Kustace hud never seen Augusta but twice in 10» 1s; but then passion doss not meceseary depend Upon constant previous intercourse with its objsct.Love at first sight is common enougt, and in this ins une Eustuco was not altogether depr1.dent upon the spuken words ofhis ado1=4, ur en his recolletion of her Very palpatle bvauty.Fur he had her books.To tuuse wlio know something oftle write \u2014anflicient, let US say, to enable lim tp put an appreximate value on his or her sentiments, so as to form a moze or less accurate guess as t> when he is speaking from his own mind, when he is speaking from the mind of the pup- petin hand, and when he is merely putting a case\u2014a person\u2019s books are full of information, and bring tha; person Into a closer and more intimat3 contact with the reader than any amou it of personal intercourse.For whatever is best and whatever is worst in an individual Will be reflected in his pages, seeing that, unless he is the poorest of hack authors, he must of necessity set down therein the images that pass across the mirrors of his heart.Thus it ecenied to Eustace, who knew \u201c Jemima\u2019s Vow\u201d and also her previous abortive work almost by heart, that he Vas very iutimately acquainted with Augusta, and as he was walking home that May evening, he was reflecting sadly enough of all that he had lost through that cruel shipwreck.He had lost Augusta, and, what was more, he had lost Lis uncle and his uncle's vast fortune, l'or he, tou, had seen the re- Port of the application re Meeson in the Lies; and, tuough he knew that he was disinherited, it was a little crushing.He ad lost the fortune for Augusta's sake, and now he had lost Augusta also; and © reflected, not without dismay, on the ong dreary existence that stretched away efore Lim, filicd up as it were with pros- Pective piles of Latin proofs.With a 8ighhe Lalted at the Wellington street Crossing in the Strand, which, owing to the constant stream of traflic at this Point is one of the worst in London.There Was a block at the moment, as thers generally is, and he stood.for some minutes watching the frantic dashes of an old woman, wha always tried to cross it athe wring time, not without some amusement.Presently, however, a boy With a bundle of anfolded Globes under 18 Arm cate rushing along, making the Place hidecns with his howls.Woncertui es-ope cf & lady and ban Want!\u201d he reared.\u201cAccount of the sur- Yivers of the Kangaroo\u2014wouderiul éscape\u2014desert island \u2014arcival of tha Magnolia with the criminais.\u201d Eustace jug ed, and instantly bouzbt #8 copy cf Le paper, sieppiig into tbe THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE MONDAY.AUGUST.20 doorway of a shop where they sold Ma- i must have sonic jewels of every size and hue, in order to read it.The very first thing that bis eye fell on was an editorial paragraph.\u201cIn another colunmn,\u201d ran the paragraph, \u201c will be found a short account, telegraphed to us from Suthampsion just a8 we are going to press, of the most remarkable tale of the sea that we are acquainted with.The escape of Miss Augusta Smithers and of the little Lord Holmhurst\u2014as we suppose that we must now call him\u2014from the ill-fated Kangaroo, and their subsequent rescue, on Kerguelon Land, by the American whaler, will certainly\u201d take rank as the racst romantic incident of its kind in the recent annals of shipwreck.Miss Smithers, who will be better known to the public as the authoress ofthat charm- Ing book \u2018 remimas\u2019 Yow,\u2019 which took the town by storm about a year ago, will arrive at Waterloo Station by the 5.4 train, and we shall then\u2014\u2014\" ustace read no more.Sick and faint with an extraordinary revulsion of feeling, he leant against the door of the masonic shop, which promptly opened in tbe most ncspitable manner, da- positing him upon his back on the flosr of the estallishment.In a second he was up, and had bounded out of the shop with such energy that the shopman was on the point of holloaing \u201cStop thiof !\u201d It was exactly five o'clock, and he was not ore thau a quarter of a mile or so from Waterloo Station.A hansom was sauntering along in front of him, ha sprarg into it.\u201cWaterloo, main line,\u201d he shouted, \u201cus hard as you can 2o,\u201d and in another moment he was rolling across the bridge.Five orsix minutes\u2019 drive brought him to the station, to which an enormous number of people were hurrying, collected together partly by a rumor of what was going on, and partly by that magnetic contagion of excitemant which runs through a London mob like fire through dry grass.He dismissed the hansom, throwing the driver half a crown, which, considering that half crowns were none too plentiful with him, was a rash thing to do, and vigorously shouldered his way through the crush till he reached the spot where the carriage and pair wero standing.The carriage was just beginning to move on.\u201cStop!\u201d he shouted at the top of his voice to the coachman, who pulled up again.alcrgside, and albre, sweeter and mora beautiful than e¥er, he once more saw his love.She started at bis voice, which she seemed to know, and their eyes met.Their eyes met and a great light of happiness shot into her sweet face, aud shone there till it was covered up and lost in the warm biush that followed.He tried to speak, but could not, Twice he tried, and twice he failed, and meanwhile the mob shouted like anything, At last, however, he got it ont\u2014*\u201cThank Gcd \"\u201d he etammered, \u201cthank God, you are safe !\u201d For answer she stretched out her hand and gave Lim one sweet lonk.Ile took it, and once more the carriage began tu move on.\u201cWere are you to be found *\u201d he Lad the presence of mind to ask \u201cAt Lady Holmhurst\u2019s.Come to- marrow morning;

ersun issuing them als9 printed.*\u201c Otlier houses had an imitation of a bank bill printed, of different denom ina- tions from five cents to fifty.\u201c All these things pagsed current; and the sterekeepers\u2019 promise to pay cireu- Jated as freely as a hank note.Storekeepers had their credit to preserve and honored their shinplasters whenever presented.\u201cThere was a hotel on Fuiton street, New York, that issued notes or bills of In ancther moment he was | twenty-five and fifty-cent denowinations.! They were well executed by a bank-note rinter,andccsta large sum to print.The name of the hotel appearsd in the place of he usual bank name.\u201d \u201cBut what hes all this to do with the postage stamp?\u201d \u201cI am coming to that.There were times when smaller change was necessary, and the postage stamp was then given.As there was some responsibility in the shape of the national government for tue issue ot à postage stainp the people began to have more contidence in them than in the private shinplasters.It ' was also stated that the latter were issued in defiance of law, and no court could : 3 .: never fails to \u201ctry his weight\u201d at least compel a storekeeper to redeem them.Fven cities had issued these shinplas- ters, making them redeemable in the payment of taxes, and altogether the number became great, and many irresponsible persons pnt forth a mass of worthless paper on the market.\u201cAs soon as distrust arose the working clasees preferred postage stamps, and storekeepers found them useful in mak- ink small change.made a large sum of money, a8 there were many postage stamps destroyed in more ways than one, but principally by adhesion.Aftar a while the postage bills wera withdrawn and the fractional currency issued in its place.These remained in usa until tbe restoration of the specie payments in the share cf subordinate silver.\u201d ITALIANS IN AMERICA.They Rever Forgive an Injury and Never Steal.\u201cMy people never forgive an injury, and scmetimes kill each other, but they never steal.\u201d The gentleman thus discussing the car- diral virtues of his countrymen was | Alersandro Mastrovalerio, travelling editor of L\u2019Iialia, of Chicago, one of the best American-Italian parers.By the Italian draft system, he entered the navy before Le was of age, served six months in quarantine duty and then went tosea with the Italian fleet.He was on the Esmeralda, and made a tour of the world, returning to Italy when 23 years of age.His time of service then being up, Le left the navy and came to America, where he has been connected with the Italio- Americano, of New York, and the Italia.\u201c My people are thrifty, virtuous and upright, if not over cleanly,\u201d continued he.\u201cI will tell you a remarkable fact.In New York alone there are 160,000 Italians.There is not an Italian woman in a house of ill-repute in all that great city, nor has a man of them been arrested tor stealing or for drunkenness.The records will bear out my statoment.They are revengeful of a fancied or real injury, however, and murders occur with greater frequency than I would wish.\u201cThere are about 300,000 Italians in the United States, and they are in every part of the land, but of course the most of them are in the eastern cities.In Winnipeg, with the thermometer 50 degrees below zero in winter \u2014 a decided contrast to the balmy air of Italy\u2014ihere is a settlement of 400 families.The majority of those who cowe to this country are workingmen from the mountairs, and, in nine cases out of ten, they never saw a city until they landed in New York.Some who were in better cireurustances at home are also here, but the majority is tbe class with which we will deal, and those are laborers.Italians who Leld good positions in their own country Leld them here.\u201cThe Italian would be thought more of if he would become naturalized.They don\u2019t tee the use of becoming citizens.I can\u2019t tell why it ie.They certainly do nct seem to retain an Italian national Epirit.The papers published in Italian bere are pressing tuis duty which they owe tLemselves and owe America, home to them, ard with good effect, I think, If they would become citizens, sucha vetivg population would be of great importance, and their condition would be elevated by contact with the Americans.\u201c1t isnot the padrones that the Italians in America should fight shy of, but the brexes, and j presume it 1s the hosses who were meant when the papers denounced padroues recently.\u2018I'he bosses i are the men who can speak Epuslish, and act a8 agents for railroads and other con- tracturs to Lire the men.The Italians cannot speak Luglish, as I said, and are therefore at the werey of the bosses.If ore of them tells the men they will have to work for 75 cents a day; that he can\u2019t make better terms for them, they have to accept cr sturve, and t e contractor and agent ehare the 50 cents or 75 cents a day which they deduct from the wages of the men by fraud and ruisrepresentation, The bcszes also act as intelliseuvs asents for the men, charging a dolisr or a> for getting them jobs, Then, to, they board the men when out working on new railroad embankments away from the towns, und make from them in that way.The Italian in the eastern cities is therefore obliged to work six months in the year on the railroads at starvation wages and then spend six cribs more in the cities living by rag picking and upon what garbage he can collect, \u201cItalians are good farmers in their own land, and come mostly from tue fruit farms.If they could only be guided to the plains iu the west, they woull become the best fruit raisers in Awerica.Instead of that, they remain in the crowded cities in squalor and poverty.\u201cThey think a great deul of relatives in Italy, and much of their earnings goes to bring parents, brothers and sisters acroes the ocean.In the eastern cities, where they ars in great numbers, they earn only shout 75 cents or a dollar a day.In the west they get from $1.25 to $2.50.They are consequently in a much better condition in the west.They copy the manners of the people they cowe in contact with, and their diet is a peculiar mixture of American and Italian dishes, the 1uaczroni, of course, predominating.They live admirably upon fifty ceuts à day.BISMARCE'S WEIGHING CHAIR.(Irom the London Figaro.)

Fabien Guilbault, dvellirg and outhouses demolished ; jexsudre Leblan:, some damage ; Chry- solgue Muntpetit, house demolished ; Joachim Lalonde, outbuildings and Lures destroyed; ¥.NX.Prieur, kitchen and barus destroyed; Francis Laionde, house and bsrn demolished ; Hormis- das Pilon, Jos.Duval and Lpurem Scuve, dwellings demolished.The roof of the vestry of the paris church of | St.Zotique was blown away.Telegraph posts were struck for a considerable dis- | tance along tle railway line, and some of them fell so near tue track that the ; trains were in danger of being wrecked.One of the oldest residents of the locality ' says that he never saw such thunder and lightning.Losses are already estimated at over $20,000.The woman killed was an old lady of 83 years of age.The suf- lerers say that the whole thing did not last over five minutes.\u2018Trees, ome 20 , inches in diameter, were torn up by the what Gargantuan weight of 247 pounds, ' roots, twisted like mere straws, and carried away a considerable distance.Planks and houses and barns have besn carried away over the fields, where long tracks of ground have been literally ploughed | up by thew.Thanks to determined perseverance in the system, \u2018 the German Chancellor was last Friday : able to anncuuce at the breakfast table, ing only weighed 190 pounds.Europe, which Las such a deep interest in Prince hfe and good + heuith, would do well, if possible, to sz cure for inturwution a daily return of | the weights recorded in the Chancellor's little diury.-\u2014 .onthe head.TRIAL BY JURY ABOLISHED IN AUSTRIA.currency of the color of the stamps.A five2cent pcstal bill liad the representation of a five-cent stamp on ite face, and a twenty-five cent bill had five five-cent stamps laying side by side and lapping over each other.vellow.\u201cA ten-cent postal bill had the repre- septation of a ten-cent postage stamp, and a fifty-cent bill five ten-cent stamps arranged as before mentioned.The color was green.\u201cThese small biils were redeemabla in legal tenders or greenbacks whan presented in sums of £6 or more.Aft>r a while these bills drove out tha postize stamps, except for sums less than five cents.\u201cBut during the time the stamps wera in general use the national government The color was orange ;
