Orrawa, March 19.\u2014The address in reply to the Speech from the Throne Was on division in the House to-night, and after being duly engrossed, will be sent to His Excellency Lord Aberdeen.\u2018l'his passing of the address after a two days debate is sufficient evidence that the Opposition have no intention of unnecessarily pro- jonging the session.They have contented themselves with pointing out several reasons why, if a correct representation of the country\u2019s condition were given, the address would have to be differently worded, and pow they await the declaration ot the Government\u2019s policy on the several questions which constitute the political menu.PRIVATB BILLS INTRODUCED.re several notices ot motion on the moder | paper when the House met this afternoon, but on motion of the Premier they were allowed to stand over till the conclusion of the debate on the Address.The following bills were then introduced: \u2018An Act to secure the better observance of the Lord\u2019s Day, commonly called Sunday.\u2014 > on.MnO hatte repeal the Electoral Franchise Act and to make certain provisions in place thereof.\u2014Mr.Charlton.An Act to disfranchise voters who have en bribes.\u2014Mr.Weldon.oh Act to amend the Railway Act.\u2014Mr.aclean (York).An ri to vend the ballot to the Northwest Territories.\u2014Mr.Martin.An Act respecting Ocean Freight rates on Cattle.\u2014Mr.Mulock.An Act to amend the Railway Act.\u2014Mr.Mulock.: An Act respecting the Senate and House of Commons.\u2014Mr.Mulock.An Act further to amend the Acts respecting the Duties of Customs.-\u2014Mr.harlton.An Act to amend the Criminal Code, 1892.\u2014Mr.Coatsworth.Co An Act to amend the North-west Territories Act.\u2014Mr.Daly.THE FRENCH TREATY.Questions by members was the next tem.Mr.Laurier asked : \u201cWhat is the policy of the Government with regard to the commercial treaty with France ?Is the Government to ask or not to ask the ratification of the treaty ¥\u2019 In reply Hon.Mr.Foster said two important delegations had asked to be heard in regard to this treaty and the Government had decided to defer the examination of their.policy until after they had heard the delegations in ques- ion.This very politic and very nebulous reply, elicited derisive Opposition cheers.ADDRESS DEBATE RESUMED.The debate on the address was then resumed by Dr.Macdonald (Huron.) Commenting on the statement in the Speech trom the Throne that there was reason Tr congratulations at the rogres made b Canada, Mr.Macdonald said hab it woul indeed be strange if a people like the Canadian people should not have pro- greased.They were bound to make a certain amount of progress year by year, no matter how unfavorable the economic conditions.But this progress was not commensurate with our natural resources, As an example of the unsatisfactory condition of our commerce, Dr, Macdonald cited the trade returns with several foreign countries.With South America our export trade had shown a steady decrease cos from $1,889,000 in 1889 \u201cto $1,007 ° ( in 1892.ith Germany our exports ie Were $943,000; in 1893 they were 5 1,000, In 1873 our export trade with rance was 8736,326; in 1853 it was $677,- hy and in -1893 $632,000.Our export \u20ac with the West Indies showed also mentable falling off, * quoting the figures of Canada\u2019s trade N wo arp ment supporters were wont ether i He though © of Don \u20acXports 3 criterion of He did not, Amount, of Can Jaures representing the adian expor ° cause for satisfag ports afforded the Speech fro ction referred to in the Coudinn sg yop ron, He was a loyal these facts wp; 1: te ENS in pointingtto ian unfayopr Tight show his country be the policy of 1) ht.But it seemed to overnment to blind al condition of affairs me his painful dug Liberal party to show the people to the act and lb therefore becs and the duty of the 10gs as they Were, cout EXTENSION oF TRADE, John's rébepet Macdonald referred to dy to the Goyer 2 his speech the other ; overn ?j tension with Aunt 8 Projects of trade \u20ac, and yet these same pompete With foreign the markets of the [ when eir ware > J transportation to the Oh utside If, on the other à manufacturer could ; i ; inly she 4 outside mar- Monopolies, and ; : li amon ° a g the pralities Owing their exist ne Pac n sy ntioned \u201coh v.t vear > found the marke | otton Combing na 225,000 ey forthwith » Where jt Pot en Was io hen neue their SUrplus » ombi i oc to ton dermmediately Taised On the cottons, anne] vor of the Hanne] in ds of si Tong .lirtin av er s ora ee slaut 45 pe , ete, the dut , \u20ac Tiore ex .+, While tie ; Vie Articles ay \u2018pensive varieties of t} Flag to i) Éraged only about 25 \u2018ese same by ¢ 7 SeTy narked Success a Refer.48.ulturistg gp the Clieve 5, tweeds, \u20ac es op réuadian applied to the Governor-General.Worlds | hered to a tariff which firmly closed the doors of the world to us.The present Minister of Agriculture had advised the farmers of the Northwest togo into mixed farming and the member for Ottawa (Sir James Grant) had attributed to the lack of mixed farming the slow progress of the country.What inducement, he would ask, was there for the farmers of the Northwest to undertake mixed farming?They would not be able to scll their produce if they did, as their nearest market was closed against them, nor indeed did the facilities of transportation in the Northwest allow of a mixed system of farming.MR.CHARLTON\u2019S REMARKS.Mr.Charlton, in rising to continue the debate, expressed surprise that the members of the Government should have remained silent during the arraignment of their policy by previous speakers.He desired to allude to just one point,\u2014the French treaty.He thought the Government should give the public some idea of what they proposed doing in this regard.No doubt the Government was surrounded with great difficulties, but the Government was occupying a humiliating position in refusing to meet the question.It was understood that the Government was opposed to the ratification of the treaty and that the High Commissioner and Minister of Marine had made certain threats if it were not ratified.Concluding Mr.Charl ton suggested that the Premier might refer the matterto a Reyal Conunission, which would at least relieve him of the embarrassment during his incumbency of office.(Laughter.) THE TERM VICEROY, Hon.David Mills on rising said that in the Speech from the Throne it was stated that certain amendments were proposed to be made to the North-West Land act and also to the Indian act.What the nature of these amendments were neither the mover or seconder of the address had explained.Yet the House was asked to vote the address on what they knew nothing about.Adverting to the passage of the speech in which the Governor General was styled Viceroy.Mr.Mille stated that this was obviously an incorrect term.To be a Viceroy it would be necessary that His Excellency should be clothed with all the powers of a sovereign, and that a vice-regal government should exist under him.Mr.Mills then took up the several measures mentioned in the address.First | camé \u2018the revision of the tariff which was referred to very briefly and without having any light thrown upon it.Nor had any of the Government's speakers afforded any iden.of what was intended to be done.He thought that some general outline, ut least, should be given of what the Government meant by this paragraph in the Speech.The Speech also contained a reference to the Behring Sea arbitration award.His own opinion of that award was that Canada certainly had no cause for self- congratulation.Coming to the French treaty, he said that it was a matter for surprise and regret that the Government were unable to announce their policy.They said that before arriving at any decision they desired to listen to a couple of deputations.He thought the period for hearing deputations was past, and that when the House met for business the Government should have been prepared to announce their position, THE PREMIER'S REPLY.Sir John Thompson here rose to reply to Mr.Mills\u2019 eriticism of the term viceroy, as It had been, he said, customary so term the Gov- ernor-General of Canada viceroy.and he thought there was nothing inaccurate about it.In support of this he read from Lord Duflerin\u2019s reports in which the latter styled himself viceroy.THE NEW WINNIPEG MEMBER, When the House met after recess Mr.Joseph Martin, the new elected member for Winnipeg, resumed the debate.Mr.Martin in his remarks, showed himself a very forcible speaker and a valuable acquisition to the Liberal party in the House.He criticized at length the record of the Conservative party, and he did it in that vigorous manner characteristic of the young and vigorous Western country from which he comes.He scored the Government for its action in the case of McGreevy and Connolly.He did not consider, he said, that these men should have been released simply because they were dangerous to the Premier and his Government.That there were men high in authority who merited punishment even more than McGreevy and Connolly was no excuse for their liberation.He ridiculed the panacea recommended to the farmers of the Northwest by the Minister of Agriculture that they should go in for mixed farming, This idea of mixed farming the honorable minister had, he said, probably picked up during his study of the science of agriculture in the library adjoining, for he had recommended it everywhere he went.He had told the farmers of Manitoba that their trouble would all end if they tried mixed farming.He had then gone to British Columbia and he had told farmers there that in mixed farming lay their salvation.His farmers of the West, however, did not take any great amount of consolation from the prospect of this mixed farming.If they were allowed a frec interchange of products with the United States then they would be able to grow those things which were best adapted to the peculiarities of the soil, and barley, for instance, was a product for the raising of which the soil and climate of Manitoba were peculiarly adapted, yet lack of a market for this product precluded all idea of growing it.What the farmers of the West wanted was not lectures on farming by men who knew nothing about the subject, but a market for their products ; *\u2018and,\u201d continued Mr.Martin, \u201cmy presence in this House is an evidence of the revolt of the farmers against the fallacy of protection and against the present Government.My opponent, Mr.ampbell, professed himself as in favor of a radical revision of tke tariff, but the electors knew that, whatever his personal predilections, no satisfactory revision could be expected of the present Government.\u201d Mr.Martin then referred to the report which had been given circulation in Con.Servative papers to the effect that he owed 18 election to his advocacy of the abolition of separate schools in Manitoba, He would say that such was far from being the case.On the contrary Mr.Campbell, who had opposed him, had made this one of the principal planks in his own platform and had done his utmost to gain votes by pos- ng as the champion of the public schools, As for himself (Martin), he had never once in any of his speeches during the campaign made the Manitoba school question an 1ssue.He had, it was true, opposed the Principle of extending the separate school System to the Northwest.He had done this pot for religious reasons, but because he leved that it was no part of the duty Senatorial Appointment, (Special to The Herald.) Orrawa, March 19.\u2014Mr.Laurier has given notice that he will move for all correspondence between the Government and any member thereof and Sir Chas.Tupper, asking for and giving explanations with regard to the following statement made by Lord Dufferin, Her Majesty\u2019s Ambassador to the French Republic, and Sir Chas.Tup- per, to Mr.Deville, French Minister for Foreign Affairs, on the 6th of February :\u2014 \u201cWe take this opportunity of confirming what we have already made known to Your Excellency, during the progress of the conference, namely, that the Canadian Parliament, favoring the development of commercial relations between the two countries, has voted a subvention of $100,- 000 for the purpose of establishing a line of steamers to run between a Canadian port on one side and the French terminus on the other.\u201d INTERVIEWED MR.FOSTER.Messrs.Weldon, MacLeod, Hagen and Chesley interviewed Hou.Mr.Foster yesterday, urging a reduction of the duty on coal oil and agricultural implements, asking also that sugar up to and including No.16 Dutch standard be made free and that a certain class of books be also placed on the free list.The deputation also urge that a time be fixed to bring the new tariff into operation.The question of subsidy to the proposed fast Atlantic steamer service was discussed and further interviews on the matter arranged.REPORTED SENATORIAL APPOINTMENT.Jt is reported here to-night that the Government have decided to call to the Senate Hon.Joseph Arsenault, of Prince Edward Island, who is 66 years of age, of Acadian descent.The vacancy was created by the promotion of Hon.Geo.Howlan to be Lieutenant-Governor.There were many applications for the position.Among those who came to Ottawa to work for it, and are now here, are Messrs.Owens, Jenkins and Hunt.Dr.Jenkins was given every encouragement, and as he was overlooked for the Governorship, expected the Senator- ship.THE BUDGET DELAY.The Government never had any intention of bringing on the budget on Wednesday.In the first place the Government do not control the business of the House on any days except Tuesdays and Fridays, and in the second place, when it is the intention te acljourn for the Easter recess from Wed- -nesday to Tuesday, there are many members who have not yet come to Ottawa, and who will not come until the holidays are over, and it is rather out of the question to present the budget to a half empty house.The announcement has, however, caused the remark that the Government are apparently not going to consult their supporters as to the changes in the tariff which has been fixed up by Messrs.Foster, Bowell and Wallace, a trinity of virtue and wisdom.This remark is more than justifiable after to-night\u2019s proceedings in the House, when the Government was unable in any possible way to defend the terrible arraignment which had been made against them.They asked their followers to vote for an address to a speech, particulars of which they knew nothing about.SOME NOTICES OF MOTION.Mr.Mills has given notice af a resolution to the effect that sale of timber from any Indian reserve in any other way than by public auction after due public notice would be highly unsatisfactory to the country and detrimental to the interests of the Indian bands having a beneficial interest therein.Mr.Laurier has given notice that he will move for papers and eorrespondence concerning the Behring Sea case.He will ask for all petitions and memorials made by the sealers of British Columbia for compensation by the Imperial Government or the Cuna- dian Government for losses arising to them out of the award of the Behring Sea Court of Arbitration.Mr.Laurier will also ask for the correspondence between the American Government, the Imperial Government and the Canadian Government; for the inspection of immigrants landing at Quebec.Mr.Delisle will move on Wednesday next for returns of all memorials received; tenders demanded or received, contracts awarded concerning the establishment of a fast steam service between Europe and Canada.Mr.Laurier is moving for information concerning the construction of the Ya- maska dam.Mr.Mulock is once more after the Royal Military College, Kingston, and has moved for a batch of information concerning the same.He will move for particulars concerning the Britlsh Columbia Penitentiary changes published in the press concerning the same and as well as the report of investigation made into the same.Mr.Mulock is also moving in the matter of the superannuation of Mr.Van Koughnet, Assistant Superintendent General of Indian Affairs.Another matter in which Mr.Mulock is moving, is that in regard to the live cattle export trade.THE CURRAN BRIDGE MATTER.Mr.Gibson, of Lincoln, intends taking up the Curran Bridge case and will move for all correspondence, etc., in relation thereto and regarding the manner in which such work was being carried out, including expenditure and claims not settled respecting such work and of all official reports on such complaints and charges ; also a statement showing the estimated expenditure for the construction of the bridge and of the actual expenditures thereon and of the amount of unsettled claims for such works; also all copies of communications and reports and orders-in-Council relating to any inquiry into matters connected with said contracts, works, complaints and charges of all evidence taken in such enquiries and of any findings on the evidence or otherwise and of all papers showing the decision arrived at by the Government or any member of the Government or officer of the Government on any question so inquired into.Also a statement showing if any work still remains to be done to complete the said works and estimated cost of the same.Mr.Lepine is coming out as a tariff reformer.He gives notice of a motion to place the following on the free list: Flour, oatmeal, corn, oats, meats, butter, cheese, eggs, strawberries, small fruits and lard.Mr.Lepine has given notice that he will move for all communications received by the Minister of Agriculture in regard to the establishment of a bureau of labour statistics.IN THE SENATE, The Senate commenced to wrestle with Continued on Page Right.the address to the Speech from the Throne this afternoon.Senator Ferguson moved the address and it was seconded by Senator Casgrain.Senator Scott replied at some length after which Mr.Bowell spoke.The latter had the floor when the House adjourned at 6 o'clock.QUEBEC CIVIC ELECTIONS.Many of the Former Councillors and Aldermen Re-elected.(Special to The Herald.)

benefits, ete., of $96.59.The Banquet Discussed.The Sir John Macdonald Clul met at the Walford Hall last eveniug and proceeded to discuss the divisability of holding a banquet.Considerable adversity of opinion existed on this question, and after an hour\u2019s discussion it was finally decided to leave the matter over until the following meeting of the club, which is the annual gathering and election of officers.Mr.C.A, McDonnell, the present President of the club, in the course of a speech stated that he had decided to vacate the President\u2019s chair for the coming year in favor of

afterwards they broke into Superior\u2019s second-hand store on Craig street, and walked off with revalvers, watches and a concertina.Detective Robinson last night arrested one Camille Lanctot.On being searched a gold watch belonging to Superior was found in his possession.A further search of his room brought to light the major portion of the stolen goods, SLIGHTLY AT VARIANCE.Two Statements of the City\u2019s Financial Position.ONE INCINERATOR RECOMMENDED.The East End Station Question Shelved Until Next Week\u2014Dis- cussion on the Merits\u2014Different Asphalts\u2014The City\u2019s Morgue\u2014 The Ste.Jean Baptiste Property to be Resold.There was an evident determination on the part of certain aldermen yesterday to bring up the East End depot question.but their plans miscarried.To begin with, a statement was prepared and submitted to the Finance Committee by City Auditor Dufresne, which showed that, after allowing $710,000 for the East End station, and $375,000 per annum for the next three years ($1,125,000) for permanent works, there still remained $426,000 as a balance available for hospitals for contagious diseases, incinerators, etc.The statement differed largely from that published by City Treasurer Robb on the 6th inst.Some of the aldermen were satisfied with it, while others expressed themselves as unable to reconcile themselves to the difference in figures.The statements are reproduced below.The differences will probably be explained when the statements are discussed.There was quite a lot of business on when the City Council met, and when at a few minutes before six o'clock an adjournment of the Council was proposed by Ald.Me- Bride, without having considered the East End Depot question, there was a vigorous objection made, but it resulted in nothing, as the motion to adjourn was carried on a close division by 12 to 11.Those who voted in favor of the motion were : Ald.Turner, Jacques, Lyall, Leclerc, Smith, McBride, Rainville; Beausoleil, Penny; Marsolais, Nolan and Stevenson.Against\u2014Ald.Le- febvre, Grothe, Reneault, Hurtubise; Savig- nac, Brunet, Dupre, Prenoveau, Robert; Prefontaine ond Hurteau.Ald.Robert made an unavailing effort to have the vote reconsidered.Health Committee Meeting.The Health Committee yesterday, on the casting vote of Ald.Beausoleil, the Chairman, deoided to rceommend a building on Perthius Street for a morgue.SANITARY STATISTICS.The weekly statement which Ald.Beau- soleil has exacted from the department was read.The principal items are as follows : It shows that 98 cases of scarlet fever existed on Saturday last; and two of measles; houses now placarded, 74; disinfected during week, 20; examined and found in sanitary condition, 130.The number of houses examined for defective plumbing were 97; in bad sanitary condition, 11; dwelling houses visited, 1,455; orders issued against nuisances, 379; actions in court, 2; judgments, 1; arrests, 3.Removal of garbage averaged 283 tons per night at a total weekly cost of $861.14.Patients in scarlet fever hospitals : General, 23; Civic, 13.In reply to Ald.Lyall\u2019s questioning as to whether the persons examining houses were actually qualified, Mr.Dore said that they were not plumbers, but they had been years at the work and were qualified to do their duties in a thorough manner.Ald.Lyall insisted that plumbers should be employed, and then wanted to know why he had been unable to get the sub-committee on plumbing to sit.Ald.Lyall said that no other city on the continent was without a by-law on plumbing.Ald.Brunet\u2014*\u201cA by-law to that effect has been on the order of the day for the past two years.\u201d It was finally decided that an effort be made to pass the by-law.SCAVENGING BUSINESS, It was decided to accept the Exposition Company's offer to use their land back of the present grounds as a dumping ground for the present and to recommend same to Council.It was decided to meet Dr.T.Wesley Mills on Thursday next with regard to a conference to be held on behalf of sanitary regulations concerning the care of cattle, horses, etc.The Finance Committee.Ald.Hurteau presided at the Finance Committee meeting.The Health Committee\u2019s report tor the morgue on Perthius street was approved.Ald.Beausoleil then brought up the question of incinerators.He dwelt on the necessity of immediate action.He was willing that one Thackery incinerator should Le built to test its merits, and if it did not work satisfactorily, another system could be adopted.Ald.Smith moved that the Health Committee\u2019s report be concurred in with the distinct understanding that only one Thackery incinerator be built at a cost of $39,000; that none other be built until this had proved satisfactory, and that 20 per cent.of the amount of the contract be deposited as a guarantee, and also that 15 per cent.be retained until the incinerator should prove satisfactory; the city to have the option of choosing any other system in the future, even should ithe Thackery prove satisfactory.Ald.Savignac proposed an amendment to the effect that a $25,000 deposit be made to secure the efficiency of the incinerator.This amendment was lost, the main motion carrying.THE CITY AUDITOR'S STATEMENT.Statement showing the financial position of the city on 31st December, 1893 : WAYS AND

with some or other of the Montreal\u2019s financial institutions, had gathered in the Crystal Rink.A score or move of ladies occupied damp seats on the east side of the rink and stayed the whole game through.\u2018The ice was in anything but good cou sdition.Though not soft, It was so covered with water that gondolus would have proved fully as convenient for locomotion as skates, but even this

Keily, considered by many to be the griatest baseball player that ever ijved, is out of the National League.\u2018This man, who, for many years, was a popular idol, for whom Boston paid Cnicavo 810

whose services the National League and Brotherhood fought so bitterly and who last year was alternately the pride anl the curse of the New York Club, is finally considered such a back pumber chat no

the Game.Little need be said of the momentum lays.They were introduced last year y Mr.Deland, though they were seen for the first time at the Harvard-Yale game at Springtield, practically at the end of the season, and their use therefore did not become geuersl.They have spread not only over the East, but into the far West, and been played, one might vay, universally by all teams professing any knowledge of modern footbali.They have been more instrnmental in raising this cry of \u2018\u2018brat- ality\u201d in football than any set of plays taat were ever put forth.However, they have dune some good in convincing careful students of the gume that, after all is said and done, straight, fast football will score more points in a game than showy tricks.They have been very hard on the men, which is quite easy to understand.and it is surprising indeed there have not been more serious auci- dents.Naturally it was a question of very short time after the introduction of flving plays before they would be met by flying resist ance, and eo this reason we have seen offensive flying plays met by flying defensive work, aud what the result has beau every footbailiman knows.Thesa imomen- tam or flying playe should all be legislated out uf the game.\u2018There has been some talk, I note, of retaining the flying wedge on the kick off, but 1 do not see any more ronson for keepiug this wedge on the kick: off than of retaining it throughout the game.There 18 nothing particularly skilful in it.It is merely adding speed to the old wedge, the principle being that it is much harder to stop wen on the run.It would continue to be met by flying de- fonsive play, au d we should be perpetustiug one of the most offunsive features oË the game, Ciassed with the momentam plays must be considered the flying interference, which we saw very skiltully done by the University of Penusyivania team as well as by Harvard, though the former carried it off much more successfully.This is the style of play that, while not so trying on the men as sume of the others of the flying species, is of & pattern not at all desirable.Moreover, this flying interference play, particularly as shown by Harvard this sea- sun, was not a ground-gainer.It will have to be legislated out along with the rest of the new-fangled tiying plays.And it will not take very eiaburate legislation to do away with all this flying

which has unfitted them for bread earning by the practice of any purely me chanical craft or petty trade, and has imbued them with many of tbe tastes and sympathies that can only be productive of bappiness or even enjoyment to those who are enabled to take their stand and maintain it in one of the upper social spheres.These youths have been \u201cput through the mill\u201d with a severity of which the British public schoolboy and university \u2018\u2018man\u201d have not an even approximate notion.Nothing is less like the school life of Eng- gland than that of Germany.In the first place it is entirely devoid of the element of play.Games, such as those which constitute an important feature of our educational curriculum and are specifically associative in character, are unknown to the boys who attend German gymnasiumsand Real- schulen.Ail these establishments are in the nature of day schools.They do not take in boardars.No leisure mon:ent of the scholar's life is spent within their precincts; consequenily no playgrounds are attached to them, and they are exclusively utilized for study.There is no such thing as cricket or football, rowing or paper chasing at a German school, nor were those or any other open air sports tolerated by the management of any educational institution would there be any time for indulgence in them.It may be said of the average German schoolbuy that during the seven years or so which he passes in working his way up from \u2018sexta\u2019 to \u201cpriwea\u2019\u2019 his labors never cease save during meal times and sleeping hours and are only lightened to a certain extent by his annual summer vacation, which, bowever, is abuadantly fraught with tasks calling for careful fulfillment ere he returus to the regular routine of school life.This routine Lugins at 8 à m.and lasts, with an interval for necessary re freshine at, until a late hour of the after- poon.Sbould the \u201cgymnasiast\u2019\u2019 happen to reside at any considerabie distance from kis school, he is compeiled to rise at 8 or a little after in order to dress, get his breakfast, cast à glaoce av his lesson books and exercises, and reach the gylanasium in time to avert an imposition for nnpunctuality.Vvhen he returns home at the end of school hours, he carries with him a quan- ti: v of work, the adequate preparation of which for submission to his teachers next morning will occupy him until 10 p.m, if he be a quick studeut and probably until midnight if he be à siow one.For healthful recreaiion\u2014nay, for absolute rm :t\u2014he has not had five minutes at

his officers are on board the Portuguese war- Ph ps Mindello and Alfonso de Albuquerque, which left Rio yesterday afternoon.No proiest or other opposition was made to the vessels leaving the bay with the insurgeut leader and his followers on board.While it is not definitely known where Da Guna and his officers are to be taken by the Portuguese ships, it is generally believed they will be put ashore at Monte Video, and, if possible, they will proceed to Santa Catharino, or Rio Grande do Sul, where the insurgents are still active.The success of Da Guma and his companions in getting out of the bay is said to be very gratifying to their sympathizers in Rio, who were anxious least they should in some way fall into the hands of the Government, in which event they would undoubtedly hav e been shot as the result of a spuedy trial by court martial.in St.BEET ROOT SUGAR.The Growers of the Root Desire a Large Bounty.Messrs.Robert Gault and 'Theodule Le- felivre leave for Ottawa to-day to

four years.The object of the deputation i is to secure, if possible, a promise from the Govergment that the bounty will be extended for a term of ten to twelve years.They say tnat the amount of the bounty is large enough, but that the large capital required to establish beet-root sugar works will not be expended unless there is a certainty of the continuation of the bounty for a term of years.If the Government guarantees the extension of the bounty it is claimed there will be immediately a large investment of capital in this industry.PERSONAL.W.J.Williamson, New York, is at the Waverley.Henry

Y.W.C.A.Building Fund.The Work of the Association-De- scription of the Proposed New Bullding\u2014A Worthy Addition to Montreal's Public Buildings \u2014 Plans for the Future.NCE and again princely gifts have been made to some of the city\u2019s Christian institutions.Just now the friends of the Young Women\u2019s Christian Association are joyful over the donation of $4,750, made to their funds by Miss Jessic Dow, Beaver Hall Square.As Miss Dow has already given $250, this he generous amount of $5,000 to- en the proposed Association building.For a long time past the ever-increasing work of the Association has made it plain that a new building, equipped with all the advantages of modern Association buildings, was absolutely necessary.Two years ago the Board of Management made the first step in that direction by the purchase of a pite on Drummond Street, just above Dor- chester Street.The land cost about $12,- 600, which has been paid by degrees, until now only $2,850, exclusive of interest, remains due.They have a year yet to pay it in, but wish to have it cleared off before the annual meeting, which takes place next month.They are now looking forward anxiously to the time when the new building shall occupy the site, but they have wisely decided not to build until half of the $60,000 necessary is in hand.They now look to their friends to help them, and hope that Miss Dow\u2019s munificent gift will stimulate others to give of their abundance.THE PROPOSED BUILDING.The plans which have been drawn by r.A.C.Hutchison, provide for a building which will be a worthy addition to the many beautiful examples of architecture which Montreal can boast.It will be five stories in height, with a frontage of 79 feet and a depth of 127 feet.The material used will be red pressed brick, with stone dressings.On the ground floor well be a large auditorium, with gallery, to seat about three hundred.A restaurant will furnish well cooked, wholesome meals at a moderate figure, and will prove a great boon te young women.A gymnasium will provide means of recreation and physical evelopment.Comfortable, well-lighted class rooms will be available for the numez- ous excellent educational classes which the Association carries on.On the first floor there will be a library and reading room, secretary\u2019s office, parlors and other peces- sary offices.The remaining three flats will be utilized for bed-rooms, of which there will be about sixty, mostly single.This will vastly increase the capacity of the boarding home, a department of Association work which is of great importance.The building will be lit by electricitw, and will be heated and ventilated on {ie Smead- Dowd system.The officers of the Association may well be in a hurry to get into the Rew premises.THE WORK OF THE ASSOCIATION, _ The Association will complete its twentieth year of useful Christian work at its next annuol meeting, having been organized in May, 1874.Tis object is to promote the social, physical, intellectual, moral and spiritual welfare of young women, and it has established several much - needed branches of work.In the boarding home twenty-five young women, students and employees in different capacities find a safe home, free from the many temptations of city life.An employment agency is open at all times, for all but domestic servants, he educational classes, which are taught by efficient teachers, comprise book-keep- ing, shorthand, type-writing, French, Ger- Than, mathematics, singing, elocution, mil- nets, dressmaking and physical culture.Work the ; outside agencies are the o orking Girls Rooms, Drammondstreet the Onvalescent Home, the Day Nursery, ain Street ; kitchen garden work Ho 8 Young children, and the Helping Then ewing-school for older children.Meteatte 30 the Association has been 101 vas \u20ac Street for the past twelve years, work 18 now totally inadequate for the « carried on.Miss H.É.Tenney is large ga se secretary, and

derstanding of it ary to an intelligent ! public and Privas coent relations to our true historical me le He followed the germs modern complicated cod.\u20ac, that of the Ro was followed by Ur Written law and es ;: 1\u20ac first .man Em Sreat the great Code Justinian, OWer Canada, a 4 many provinces of criminal and constitutional procedure.; Our law relating to wumen, though antiquated, nevertheless signalizes a great progress upon former times.Now, spinsters and widows over twenty-one years are practically upon an equality with men, but married women are placed under heavy disabilities in favor of their husbands.The lecturer considered firstly, the position of the woman in the family of her father during her minority and later when she becomes free of paternal authority; secondly, her position in the family, of her husband; and thirdly, her position during widowhood.Until a woman has reached the age of twenty-one years, she is under the control of her parents, whom she must honor and respect in return for the care which her parents must have for her maintenance and education.During minority the daughter may acquire property and may contract, buy, sell, etc., but the contract is not binding -on her.By taking a refuge under a plea of minority she ray escape loss, but also surrenders any advantage.She is liable for any damage caused by her positive act to another.When a minor marries she is ipso facto emancipated, not subject to her parent\u2019s control, but to her husband\u2019s.When the age of 21 is reached, full civil capacity and responsibility is then ae- quired.A spinster may make contracts, buy, sell, lease loan, enter into partnership, act as agent, speculate, sign promissory notes, control her own property, etc, and do usual acts of civil life, As \u2018to the effects of marriage upon woman\u2019s legal status, the age fixed by Roman law and the Code Napoleon, at which our women may marry, is 12 years, the consent of the parents or tutor being necessary as well as that of the woman herself.Suits to annul illegal marriages can be taken by the parents, by the husband or wife, or by the person on whom the \u201cdeception was practiced within six months after its celebration.Besides the Deceased Wife\u2019s Sister Bill, our law recognizes certain religious disabilitics\u2014perpetual vows taken by persons belenging to certain religious communities of tiie Catholic Church.The Ursulines of Quebec and the Sisters of the Hotel Dieu, for example, are civilly dead, cannot make wills or acquire property, or act as witnesses.The first obligation incident to marriage is to support and educate the children; the duty is reciprocal between parent and child.Husband and wife mutually owe each other fidelity, snccor and assistance.\u201c\u2018A husband owes protection to his wife; a wife obedience to her husband.\u201d This duty of obedience is limited by the abuses of the husband when a personal separation may be ordered by the court.The husband can compel the wife to live with hin; but he must treat her with respect and consideration.He is obliged to receive her, and furnish her with the necessaries of life according to his rank, means and condition.The heaviest disability of the married woman is her absolute incapacity to contract in any shape: or form, or to accept any civil charge.For all legal contracts she must obtain her husband\u2019s authorization, if this is withheld without reason, she may apply to a judge.\u2019Therefore no promissory note made by a married woman is of value.The education of the children Is the exclusive power of the husband irrespective of any clauses in the marriage contract in regard to this.The wife must follow the husband where- ever he goes, if he so require it.With her widowhood a woman regains full civil capacity, limited only by the will of her dead husband.A common clause fs that they forfeit the revenue from the husband\u2019s estate upon re-marriage.This is to protect the property rights of tlie orphan children.The lecturer brought his remarks to a close by some appropriate and witty quotations to the effect that *\u201c marriage is not a republic; it is a monarchy.\u201d Also that ¢\u2018 the duty of man is to acquire ; that of woman to preserve.\u201d From this just equilibrium will, in the fulness of time, spring the noblest development of civil and social life.THE FASHIONS.Very pretty vine-embroidered, brier.stiched, or tuck and insertion, all-over fabrics in lawn, French muslin and Indian linen are shown this season, designed for yokes, waists and borderings for summer dresses.New creped zephyr \u2018goods come in stripes, chine, and dotted effects, some of the fabrics showing a creped colored stripe alternating with one in cream or ivory-white, likewise crinkled.Besides the leagues of fancy lace of every imaginable design, and of every width, from, one inch to one yard, in cream, ecru, white, black and butter color, are more novel garnitures of frilled tulle hung with sparkling spangles and sequins, These will be alike popular for bodice trimming and decorations in millinery.There is already a large sale of chine taffetas, many of the designs showing a mixture of lovely tints which produce an effect much like a one-color warp, with the added result that the splotches of soft color, instead of being even and defined, shade gradually into the delicate gray-white of the ground.One grows tired of repeating that these huge Incroyable bows more or less wide and more orless long, are considered almost indispensable to the fashionable toilet of the moment.Much smaller bows appear upon someof the new fancy Parisian waists and blouses, fastened here and there upon them, front, back, and on belt, neck, and shoulder.The ribbon- manufacturers must be making their fortunes, for no article of dress, including fine underwear, is without its trimming of ribbon._1f the run upon ribbons of every color, kind, and width is phenomenal, so likewise is the demand for moire\u2014black motre more particularly.Moire is watered in many novel patterns.The watermark remains, but it is supplemented with dots, lozenge figures, shadow figures, floral effects, ribbed stripes, and similar designs.\u2018hese certainly lend novelty to the material, but to many winds this is novelty devoid of charm.R.E.M.\u2014There is an unusually large stock this season of black dress fabrics in all wool from which to select a *¢ partial mourning\u201d outfit.They include beautiful qualities in

elegant.Now the model is so vulgarly overburdened with trimmings that it is quite impossible to guess what the normal figure is.There are enormous double or triple revers, shoulder-flaps, capes, collarettes, sleeve halloons, flounces, and puffs, surmounted by a monster scarf in front with braces and bands beneath it, and extra frills heaped on, apparently with a desire to see how much material it is possible to uge.SEARGENT CRESTS.BY CAPTAIN CHARLES KING,™ CHAPTER V.- CONTINUED, Curran was utterly disgusted with the whole affair, **Ten chances to one,\u201d said he, **them fellows will never come back to the post, and Pll never get a cint of me money.\u2019 Curran, as the party most interested, was persistent in his cross- questioning of the major, who was eager enouglr to explain, but not to Curran.In brief, he suid he had brought in that sole-leather valise nearly twelve thousand dollars with which to pay Winthrop\u2019s command.\u2018The rest of his funds, sealed in his little iron safe, were turued over to the express company to be iforwarded to Butte, two days later on, by which time he had expected to return to pay the infantry at the fort and then go on to the outlying posts to the northwest.By cvening, too, Rhett had received tcl- egraphic orders to hold his little battalion of foot in readiness to take train to Pawnee and thence march across the range to the lower Mini Ska.Although exaggerated, the reports of rapine and murder were only too true.The Sioux were indeed at their devilish work.In the sub- duced bustle of preparation the paymaster\u2019s excitement and distress of mind created less sympathy than would ordinarily have been the case.Eagerly hc was showing his despatch to ofticer aiter ofii- cer, .and asking whether any one.would not have acted just as he did under the circumstances and on receint of so genuine a, message, and gentlemen who under other circumstances would unhesitatingly have said yes, were now disposed to be a bit conservative, to look judicial and suggest inquiries.Wouidn?t it have been better to stop the train at Alkali and see if the report were true?The bridge was only half a mile {rom the station, and somebody would have hecn sure to know.These are times when cvery- body*s backsight is so much better than his foresight.Everybody could see with half an eye that had the paymaster caused the conductor to stop the train at Alkali some of the escort would have been on the platiorm to meet him, and they would have told bim that there was nothing in the world the matter with the bridge, that the whole thiny was a plant.But Graves pointed out that he didn\u2019t own the road and coulde\u2019t make the train stop unless he meant to get off, which he didn\u2019t.Lieutenant Edwards had wired him to come on to Minden, Everybody knew Edwards.He had escorted Graves on the winter trip to the Black Hills cantonment.It was most natural Edwards should have been selected to escort him this time, He was with the battalion, first lieutenant of Frank Amory\u2019s troop, True, as matters turned out, Edwards had not been sent at all, Uld Sergeant Daly, with eight troopers, was considered amply sufficient.Of course, it was a plant, a most successful plant, and more than likely, said the paymaster, somebody closely connected with the cavalry had engineered the whole scheme.Everybody knew there were some very shady characters among the men enlisting during the Centennial year.Every body knew fkhbat train would fetch him out from department head-quarters.The plotters would not wire in time to admit of his making enquiries, but waited until the last moment, then, dressed and equipped as the cavalry were dressed and equipped, they had sent two of their number into Minden Station with a despatch signed by an officer whom they reported a mile or two behind, coming up with the wagon and main body.Everything looked straight to the operator, and so it was sent to Pawnee and there handed to the Pullman porter.What could have been more complete?The troopers who met him at the platform addressed him confidently and respectfully,.saluting exactly like old soldiers, Où course he hadn\u2019t a personal acquaintance with the whole regiment, but this he would say and did say, that he believed Mr.Lacy, his clerk, was wiil- ing to swear that the two men who met him at Minden were bona fide members of the Eleventh Cavalry; Mr.Lacy had seen them before, and could identity them again.The sherifi's people were already working on the clue.1t was nearly tattoo that evening when Morgan left the Major's and went slowly homeward, Voices in eager conversation, were audible in the kitchen as he entered, then became as suddenly still and the door was quickly closed.It was his custom to go to the children\u2019s roony and kiss and pet them a little aiter Connie had prompted them through their prayers,-devotions over which, in their infantile depravity, they were far more apt to fall asleep than during the subsequent ceremony.But the sounds from aloft as he entered were those of lively contention rather than adoration, lively controversy rather than the lisping pray- crs of childish lips.Lot and Billy were still up and astir, it was evident, and so engrossed in their tilt that the father\u2019s slow coming up the creaking stairway failed to divert their attention.Halting at the door and looking in, the veteran trooper enjoyed a coup-d\u2019oeil of the scene.Perched on the Led in the bifurcated vestment of canton flannel referred to as his \u2018*\u2018nighties\u2019 was the burly son and heir, barefooted, flushed, truculent, bouncing up and down on the bed springs as he conversed with his sister, who, equally flushed, if a trifle less confident in mien, and just about half undressed, was standing with one of her spring-heeled, buttoned boots in hand, half concealed, half disclosed, as though she lacked determination to hurl it aiter its mate, now reposing on top of the bureau beyond the hed, surrounded by the wreck of a glass toilet set, once their mother\u2019s Aunt Lottie\u2019s one present to her army sister.\u201cI don\u2019t care,\u201d said Lot, sturdily; \u201cyou did it.» **0h, you\u2019re woseé\u2019n 'Annanice \u2018Afire.I didn\u2019t!\u201d \u2018\u2019You did, too! and you shan\u2019t call names,\u2019 \u2018I shall if you \u2019cuse me again,\u201d said Billy, stoutly.**You fired that shoe at me when I wasn\u2019t even lookin\u2019 at dolly, and it smashed everything.\u201d I don\u2019t care,\u201d reiterated Lot; \u2018\u2019it was all your fault.It never would have hit \u2018em at all if\u2014if you hadn\u2019t dodged.So there!\u2019 Axd then Lot, triumphant, *uxn- | came i what had happened.She flew around the ed, saw her father\u2019s grave her nerve.Running to him, che burst into tears, whereupon Billy bheean 14, whine per sympatheiically, C Ra \u201cHush, Lottie.Never nind who «id it now,\u201d said Morgan, taking her in his arms.\u201cHush, child, Weil sette that some other time.Where's Cappo Where was she when this happened; Minny called her to the kitchen, Sergeant Hinkel\u2019s wile comed,** sobbed.Lottie, \u201cand she told Billy not to step on my dolly, und he\u2014he\u2014just danced it off the hed a purpose, and I\u2014and Jen and here the sobs overmastered her\u2018 and Biil- ly came tumbling ofi his perch in dire dis- nay.And this was the situation when Connie!ls low voice and tient Îooustepa were beurd on the stairway, and Littie Mother hurrying in.One mlance told her face, and lost hed to the burcau.\"Oh, Lottie, Lottie, how could you: she cried.\u201cOur dear mother\u2019s set>Aunt Lottie's present!\u201d \u2018Never mind Connie, never mind it now dear.She wasn't aiming at jt,\" said pa- terjamnilias with his patient smile.\"she vas aimin\u2019 ut me!l® burst in Bile ly, whose distress at sight ot Lotiic\u2019s grief was suddenly tempered hy the pru- spect of her getting scot irce, as was often the case when the father acunminis- téred justice, \u2018\u2019and then she said | did it, \u2018cause I dodged.\u201d \u2018Wen, he called me names,\u201d sobbed, Lottie,\u2014\u2018said 1 was worse\u2019n Annanice Afire,\u201d \u201cWhat on earth is Annanice Afire?\" asked Morgan blankly of his eldest.\u201cNothing, father dear.1 read them the story of Ananias and Sapphira when Billy told a story the other day.Let me undress Lottie, now.\u2014Come, child.\u201d But Morgan noticed instantly how nervous and flurricd was her manner, how tremulous and «cold her hand, Ijis little Connie, his hig tall Connie now, so.tenderly, so fondly loved.Not until the little ones had forgotten their squabble, had hegged each other's forgiveness at Connie\u2019s knee and.cried themselves lo sleep, did the father sec her again.She seemed to busy hersglf a long time aloit instead of coming down to his den.Meantime, Fenton, officer off the dav, came hurriedly in: **Here\u2019s the latest, Morgan.Schuliz and Schramm tock dinner together at Con- the Empire stable, and didn't start un- the i\u2019mpire stable, and didn\u2019t start until nearly three o'clock.The sherifi has sent a posse after them.He claims that Lacy\u2019s description of the robbers fite\u201d them both.\u201d

The tariif changes which are to be made are outlited in The Star of last evening, and probably its forecast is in- spirod.It has lL.tely been displaying an umount of party activity in the divection oi siangwhanging the Opposition aud rreising the Ministers which entitles it to rank with The Empire and The To- vento World as a medium for the announcement of Government information.The changes are also slimenough to justify a belief in the zuthenticity of the report.As outlined, they are in many cases liable to create more outcry than the most offensive provisions of the present tariff.The duty en mess pork will be doubled, tbus adding largely to the cost of ourrying on lumber operations and waking it still nore difficult for Cusaadiun lumber merchants to sell their output in the United States in rompetition with the American companies.Free corn\u2014one of the greatest boons which conld be conferred upon the agriculturists of Canada\u2014is to be refused in deference to the behests of Conservative members for Western Ontario.Agricultural implements are to be protected only by a lifteen per cent.duty, in place of 35 per gent.as st present.This is a sweeping reduction ; but will the Government still continue to tax the implement manufacturers 30, 40, 50 and 60 per cent.on their raw material by maintaining the cutrageous tariff on pucdieil bars and bar iron?If they do, the manufacturers will have a just grievance, for they will be absolutely handicapped fully 30 per cent.in their competition with the great American manufacturers.If the Canadian manufacturer gets his iron and steel at free trade prices, not only will he not need any protection, but he will rapidly build up a Inrge export business.The right policy for Canada on this question is free iron and steel and no duty whatever.But it appears thas this wise Govern- nent, whiie chopping off the duty on agricultural implements is going to in- zvense the duty où iron.Possibly Mr.Foster and Mr, Angers, who bearded the terrible Northwest farmer in his den last year du not, know that threshing and mowing machipes are chiefly made of steel.The Star says that \u201cscrap iron, at present \u2018nported free, will be taxed.\u201d What The Star was probably iustructed ts say was that the duty en scrap iron, which is at pre- ent 32 per ron, will be raised to a point quaiuing it with the duty on paddled bars which 5 §9 per ton.This is what the forge masters and all the red hot pro- tecticiiist ioctrinaires havo been clamoring for ; ana if che Covernment has yielded and added yet another story to the present outrageous iron Jduties, we thiuk it safe to predict that there will bea very lively tim= when the iron schedule comes to be discussed in Parliament.Duties on cotton goods snd woollens are to remain unchanged.Was it not in The Star that the information was given to the world some threo months ago, that the cottou lords had graciously consented to 4 reduction in the duties on their fabries ?What has ied to their recauta- tion of their ** consent?\u201d And having in a moment of weukuess consented, why did rot the Governinent hold them to their bargain # Thus it appears that this great revisiun vË tho tariff is going to leave uutouched the cotton dutics\u2014ene of the most burdensome schedules in the whole tariff; the woollen duties which sre least twice too high; and by increasing the duty on scrap iron is going tc add sumctlfing to the aiready extortionate price of The cotton trusts, the woollen trusts, the nects of hardware trusts, are to be touched very ginzerly.In fact the revision is goixg tu be a gigantic fraud, which the Government, with the aid of its howling dervishes in the House, and in the partizan press (which includes The Star) is going to try to pass off as the genuine article.The country has been *\u201cLuncoed\u201d in the past most successfuily in this manner, but we believe it is now sufficiently alert to never again be fooled by a came so transparent as the confidence trick Mr.Foster is preparing to play at hardware.No vogus tarif reform ! form for revenue only | A tant ve- | patriots, but now Am AN IN EXORABLE TENDENCY.A curious misapprehension of the truth appears in the following remarks by The Canadian Gazette upon the distress in Toronto : Could there be anything move paradoxical the annuuncement which comes froin \u2018l'oron:o by teiegram that 2,000 men are clamoring at the City Hall for work, while ail round them lies a land of boendicas natural wealth crying out for cultivation?The trouble is a natural sequel of tie overbuilding of Toronto in the peal, and we soc that the civic authorities are talking of staring city \u201cimprovement\u201d works, which will relly improve nothing and which are not really wauted.How mu.h more sensible to put those who will and can work apon som\u201d of the vacaut wads of Ontario, and let them carve out an independence for themselves!

$500\u2014 The Oxfnrd License Case-\u2014-Long List of Law-broakers\u2014Several Sentences Pronounced.SPECIAL investigation was begun yesterday afternoon in the Court House by Dr.Aylin, Iuspector : of Government Build- \u2018 \"ings, into the escape of ths three prisoners, Young, Mocaey and Ennis, on Saturday morning last.The first witness calied was Joseph Hetu, a prisoner who was in the cell at the time of their escape.His exuinination threw very iittle light on the subject.He said he had seen Yourg and Mouney conversing secretly tozether during the morning ia one of the cells «nd alse stated that Deputy High Constable Bissonuette had entered the cell shortly before they escaped, but of which he, the witness, was not aware until Bissonnette retuined threc minutes afrer- With two insco prisonere, when he asked witness what had become of the escaped risoners, but Le could not teil him because e was looiiing cut of the window all the tirae and naid no attention to their actions.He bad seep a paper passed in to Mooney through the window during the morning.Heard the door click when Bissonnette departed the first time, but could not say whether iie locked it or not.When Bis- sonucite brought the two prisoners dowu she second time, he heard him turn the key in the lock before lu eutered.ad ust changed his position from the window until sexed Ly Bissonnette about tA: three escaped prisoners.Could not say who was in charge of the cell.Michael Ennis, the ve-captured prisoner, was the next witness and after being cautioned said that he was in the cell on Sat- .Urday moruing with Hetu, Young and Moonay.Had scen Young and Mooney secrctly couversing and at times going to the door and examining the lock.After Bissonnette Lad left the cell between 12 and | ¢\u2019clack Mconey reachsd on top of the cells and took down a piece of thin iron which he bent straixit and then he opened the lock cf the outer iron barred door.He gave the piece of iroa Lo Young and told him to pat it in the closet, which ho did.Mooney then walked out and unholted the partition door and was quickly followed by Young.Both were much excited.They went out by the Police Court entrance.When they had got through the outer door I thought migiit as well go along with them: and have a look at St.Patrick\u2019s procession.When I got outside, I saw the two turning down St.Gabriel Street, and I ran after them and caught them on St.Paul Street.\u201d Dr.Aylin\u2014\u2018 Was there anyone in Police Court when you three escaped ?\u201d \u201cYes, a clerk was sitting under the magistrate\u2019sbench, reading a paper and for a moment owing to Young and Mooney slamming the door after them I was afraid he would look up, but he did not do so, but kept on reading his paper.Had he looked up he must have seen ine pass out.Hetu, the other prisoner, did not smell the rat wd I had no time to inform him.\u201d An adjournment was made to the cell to vxamine the lock, ete.On the top of these cells was found a lot of old piping and thin bracing iron, the same as was used to force the lock.\u2018The outside wiring on the window was found to have been broken and a pain of glass broken.The lock was next examined, and it was found that it could he prized back easily, whether it was double locked or single.This satisfied the inspector as to how they made their escape, and the party adjourned upstairs to resume the enquiry.GOVERNOR VALLEE\u2019S STATEMENT.Governor Chas.A.Vallee was thon examined, and testified that the prisoners from the jail were taken in the Government van to the Court House.When the van was first organized he looked after the prisoners for the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench and Special Sessions.High Constable Bissonette taking care of the Police Court ones.This only lasted for two weeks, when he received special written instruc: tions from the Sheriff to hand them over to High Constable Bissonnette.In order to assist him, however, as he has so many prisoners to attend to, he had one of his guards to assist him, but on this occasion he was looking after some the session yesterday morning under the presidency of Chief Justice Lacoste, Tue first case brought up was that of Michael Lanis, the re-captured prisoner, charged with receiving meat kuowing it to have been stolen.\u2018The jury found him guilty.RE-CAPTURED CONVICTS, The two convicts, Eugene Hamilton and Camille Bougic, who ran away from St.Vincent de Paul and were re-captured by Detective Lafontaine 75 miles from the city, were found guilty and received three months imprisonment each, to be added to their previous seniences.Three men, Marci!, Coupe and Dubois, charged with stealing a geld watch from a Mr.Jeunne.of St.Agathe, in à saloon in the Fast End, were found guilty.The court adjourned at 5.45 p.m.until 10 o'clock this morning.TWO EXPERIENCED RURGLALS.The two old jail birds, Kerr and Le- vescque, whe were arrested by Detective Gladu on Saturday night were brought be.tore Judge Desnoyers yesterday mornin.Levescque pieaded guilty to having broken into three places, but Kerr, who has spent 26 years in jail, pleaded not guiliy to breaking into Leclerc\u2019s grocery store on Ontario street.They were both ve:nanded for cnnucte.THE ST.LAWRENCE RIVER.Condition of the Ice\u2014 Navigation Expected to Open Suon.The ice in the river is still soiid, aithouzh it

Academy of Music last night by a very largo audience.; It is just what the public have been ied to expeut\u2014a production worthy of a more pretentious headline than comic opera.From start to finish it is full of beautiful music, and with two exceptions the numbers have no flavor of any previous perform.auce.| The appearance of Miss Adele Ritchie was looked forward to With much interest; uo one was disappointed.She is a charming little woman, with a sweet soprano voice of sufficient range to sing in almost any opera.Sie Acts well, too, and this cannot be said of all operatic stars.Her gowns are gems, particularly in the last act.where she looks simply like a piece of brichtly animated Dresden china.Of Hubert Wilize little need be said.He is in as good voice as ever and acts well the art of Colonel Pani, His scene with Mizs litchie and Mr.Joseph Herbert in the act is very funny and helped much to brighten up the performance.Mr.Herbert was very welcome in Moutreal.His part is not a opposite St.Helen's Island.Last year the first break up of the ico took place on Aprit A GROUP FROM \u201cTHE ALGERIAN\u201d WIT 19, aud by the 21st the channel opposite the city was clear of ice.The water was about tive feet higher yesterday than at the same date last vear.The Richelieu river is now clear of ice between Chambly and Rouse\u2019s Point.In the Back River there is very little ice left.River men hope that navigation will open early this season, hut it will probably be five weeks before the first steamer arrives.The Pickhuben was the first to arrive last season, the date being May 3rd, then followed the Sardinian and Tritonia.The earliest opening of navigation since 1842 has been April 4, and the first arrival April 24.STATE Of THE RIVER ELSEWHERE.The state of the river in

on the 7th of April, which is a week earlier than formerly.It will be out for about three weeks to allow of repairs being made.The first Allan steamer of the season, the Sardinian, is advertised to leave Liverpool prisoners in the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench dock.ft The witness was then ordered to bring | up the written instructions of the Sheriff, and the enquete adjourrzed until 4 p.m.this afternoon.A DISHONEST BANK CLERK, Alphonse Labrecque, ledger keeper in La : Banque Nationale, skipped out of the city an Saturday evening with nearly $500 of his employers\u2019 money.Labrecque had been three years in the bank's employ.The bank will lose nothing as Labrecque is in- aured for $4,000 in one of the guarantee companies.THE OXFORD LICENCE OASE.Judges Dugas and Desnoyers will sit as Licence Commissioners this afternoon and at three o'clock will hear the opposition of the Alliance against the Oxford.No more new applications will be re- oeived by the Commissioners.Up to the present

her son.were charged in the Court yesterday with having stolen property in their possession, a raccoon coat and seal cap, which were stolen irom Howard's bottling store the night of the blowing up of

The proceedings of the Canada Revue vs.Archbishop Fabre have again been stayed.Justice Wurtele's judgment Saturday after- soon had tnis effect.The case, in the ordinary course would have been heard on its merits before Mr.Justice Pagnuelo yesterday.But it was not to be.Mr.C.à.Geoffrion.Q.C., counsel for His Grace, stated at the opening of the Court yesterday morning that he had received a communication from Mr.Horace St.Louis, the Canada Revue's Attorney, stating that he (Mr.St.Louis) had withdrawn from the case.It was questionable whether such a withdrawal was permissible at such a stage.Mr.St.Louis informed the learned judge | that his manner of conducting the case had | not suited the views of his clients, and ac- } cordingly he had no option but to retire.+ i 3 Mr.Aristide Filiatrault, manager of the Canada Revue Co., was asked by Mr.Judge Pagnuelo if he had any abjection to Mr.St.Louis withdrawing.\u201cEven if I had,\u201d said Mr, Filiatrault, and smiled.It then Lieccame necessary to decide about | a postponement.Tire Hon.Mr.Taillon waated a day tixed for the hearing, as under i present arrasgements His Grace was prac- i tically a prisoner tu his Police, not know- | ing what day he mivht lie summoned to | attend Court.April JC was finally agree:l upon.and an order made accordingly.De not suffer from sick hesdache à ma- ment longer.It is nut necessary.Carter's Littie Liver Pills will cure yeu.Dose, one ttle pill.Small price.Small dose.Small ill, | | 1 ] \u2014\u2014 The Senate and the Commons.Popular is the Senar» aud the Cominons alike.\u201c\u2018Farech\u2019s l'erique Mixture\u201d is the ackrowledged favorite in the Capital as cisewnsre.Sold bv W FE.Irvine, Messrs.Date and Co.and by ail first-class tobaceo- nists.Meuaquarters, Ilirschs opp.P.O.For Over Fi*ty Years.Mre.Vrinzlow's Noothing Syrup has been sed for over fifty years by millions of i mothers and their children while teething, with perfect success.It soothes the child, i softens the gums, alleys all pains, cures wind colic, and is the best remedy for diarrhea.It will revive the poor little sufferer immediately.Sold hy alldruggistsin every part où the world.Twenty-tive cents a bottle.Be sure and ask for \u201c\u201c Mrs.Wins- .sa startlingly big one but in anybody else's hands iv would be startlingly H JOSEPH HERBERT IN THE CENTRE, [ small.Frauk David and Ben Lodge are old friends of the comedy stage, and with Mr.Herbert made a great trio.It is a pity that Dorothy Morton has so little to do.Why, for instance, should she not share honors with Miss Ritchie, hy singing the *¢ Legend of the Rose?\u2019 The ladies of the company, and there are many, are very pretty, and the costumes are exquisite, The chorus as a whole is good.in Daudet\u2019s *lartarin of Tarascon.\u201d The scene is laid in Algiers: this naturally suggests pretty scenery, and the inanagers have not forgotten the fact.Max Gabriel, the musical conductor, is entitled to much praise \u201c\u2018CARMEN\" AT THE QURBEN'S, Such a large audience as only a benefit periormance to se popnlar an institution as the Baron de Hirsch Institute could draw, heard \u201cCarmen\u201d at the Queen\u2019s last night.Rabbi Veld had the management of the event in hand, and he chose Bizet's \u2018\u2018Carmen\u201d as a winner; and there is little doubt that from every point of view the perform- Company made another hit.That Miss Irene Murphy created quite « sensation by her impersonation of Carmen, 2qes without saying.She indicated the sensuous, suggestive and vulgar character in a realistic way; every pose, movement, glance and gesture belonging to the cigarette girl.The Don Jose of the cast, Martin Pache, as the tenor, has been spoken of before, but he excelled himself in dramatic action, especially in the final scene.As the Escamillo, Wm.Wolff inade the song, Toreador, his great success.aud gained an encore.The minor soles were well cast, and the concerted music of the tavern scene, as well as others, were first rate.In the last act the scenic display was more elaborate than was expected.The financial result netted a good round sum for the Baron de Hirsch Institute.Miss Baker danced cleverly dur- -ing the evening.\u201cTHE STOWAWAY.\u201d The Theatre Roval goes on the even tenor of its way and yesterday \u2018\u2018The Stowaway?\u201d drew crowded houses.This is the first time that the production has appeared in Montreal, and it was well received yesterday.The plot is nothing out of the ordinary, but this is made up for in the excellence of the scenic work.A safe is \u201ccracked\u201d by two \u2018reformed\u2019 burglars.1n this prosaic age people, probably, through curiosity would like to gaze on the features of a real \u2018\u2018live reformed burglar.This they did not do yesterday owing to the men wearing a mask.The blowing up of the safe was realistic, extremely so,and brought forth great applause.The scene in the fourth act is a beautiful one.Never before in Montreal has a yachting scene been produced to more advantage.It was something new and greatly appreciated.Chas.Confield was good and acted his part to perfection, and his ¢iusin, Chas.Etherington, a man of not too good a character, was in good hands when performed by Mr.Lee.Percy Ewart, an easy going lnglishman, and withal an adventurer was well portrayed by Jules Kresel.Dickey Dials, a waif, one of those personages met with in large shipping centres, was made the most of by Joseph Mitchell.Miss Libbie Kirke was immense as a London newsbov.The other characters were splendid.The Royal hasa good show this week and crowded houses should greet each and every performance.MRS.MOUNTFORD.There 15 every possibility of Murs.Mount- ford again visiting Moutrcal some time in May, under the management of Geo.Sheppard.She will {deliver a course of four lectures, amongst which will be her greatest subject \u2018\u2018lece Homo.\u201d Mrs.Mount- ford will no doubt araw crowded houses.j Rice's greatest effort, \u201cVenus\u201d, The story of the opera is from an incident | ance was a great success.The Baker Opera | THE ADDRESS PASSED.Continued from Page One.of the State to interfere with the questio® of religion, but leave the individual to follow cut his own bent as best might seem good to him (cheers.)
