Lord Dufferin is again spoken of as likely to assume the CUovernor (Greneral- ship of India at an early day.

A Chicago man’s nightmare turned out to be the shadow of the wife’s foot onthe bedroom wall, instead of an un- earth] vy monster with five horns.

[t is said that organized drilling is g0- ing ov in the west of Ireland. The re- port may be false, or the drilling may be of a strictly constitutional kind.

A poor young man fell in love with an heiress. and the passion being returned, it only wanted the parent's consent to muke them happy. At length, meeting the father he asked for the daughter’s hand. ‘How mueh money can you command ?’ exclaimed the millionaire, gruffly, ‘Not much,’ was the reply. ‘What are your expectations.’ ‘Well, to tell you the truth, | expect, if you refuse your con-~ sent, to run away with your daughter and marry her without it.’

An American lady, who has lived in England says :—* For the street Koglish women dress horribly, but for dinner parties and balls they are lovely. They wear usually either white or black, and skins aud complexions are dazzling. But every English woman when she gets to be thirty-five or forty has a rash break out on her nose. I believe it is because they drink so much. They are always drinking wiae and all that with their meals. ‘They don’t get faded and worn. looking as we Amoricnza women do; but they get very stout, and their beautiful complexions get to be really ‘beery.’

The Gladstone family belongs essenti- ally to the middle elass—and Mr. Glad- stone himself would claim for it no other honor—but the zealous Burke connects the marriage of Sir John Gladstone with Miss Robertson to a royal descent from Heary IIL. of England, and Rober Bruce, King, of Scotiand. The alleged pedi- gree is thus traced—Lady Jane Beau- ford, who wasa deseendant of Henry ILL. married James J. of Scotland, who was a descendant of Bruce. From this alliance it is sail that the step can be followed clearly down to the father of Miss Rob. erison. A Scotch writer upon gencaology, aiso referring to this matter, states that Mr. Gladstone is descended on the mo- ther’s side trom the ancient Mackenzie of. Kiatail, through whom is introduced the blood of the Bruce, of the ancient Kings of Man, and of the Lords of the Isles and the Earls of Ross; also from the Monros of Fowlis and the Robertsons of Strowan and Athole. What was of more consequence te Gladstones of recent gen- erations, however, than royal blood, was the fact that by their own energy and honorab!e enterprise they carved their own fortunes, and rose to positions of

yablic esteem and eminence.— Life of Myr. G'/ is ‘one.

Tho Late Attempt to Assassinate the Czar.

Further developments in the matter of the atte apt on the Czar’s life show that a mine, the explosion of which wrecked a baggage train, was placed under the rails, and was so arranged as_ to be exploded by electricity. A wire attached to machine ter:nina‘ed in a house a short distance from the railway track, where the conspirators were concealed awaiting the arrival of the Imperial train over the spot. For some resson, which can only be explained by

the co:spirators themselves, the mine Was exploded until the baggage train arrived immediately over it. The

theory <enerally accepted of this cir- curistance is that the person engaged in carrying out the plot, mistook the train —a change having been made in the order

in which the trains started, The plan was most ing miously arranged, and that it fail- ed is attributed in Contrt circles to the hand of Providence.' The police are alert in searchin « for the conspirators, who are sup- posed to have fled at onco after they be- came aware of the result of the explosion, aul it is believed they will soon be captur- ed. excitement has been raised by the event, and the friends of the Govern- ment declare that the Emperor of Russia bears a 1 lif A public Thanks- giving w the churches for

Overwork—The Breakdown.

I met a man some time ago who used to travel on business, and almost passed his life upon the rail. He came home one evening, and walking across the dining-room he staggered like a drunken man. Un- charitable people who did not know his. habits, might have thought him intoxicated. He sank into his chair and he was a prison- er in his chair all the rest of his life. He was completely paralyzed in his lower limbs. The incessant travelling on the rail had at last proved too much for his nerveus sys-- tem. Hence the collapse ; and | have strong impressian that other collapses might be traced to a similar source.

I knew of a lawyer who was in a great rush of business. He liked his fees; but like all men who succed, he liked business for its own sake. He was unable to refuse business ; and, indeed, to refuse business is the hardest trial which can happen to any professional man. His mistake was, that he did not provide himself with adequate assistance. The ill-treated brain took to softening, and then all business came to an end. I knew of a man who was enormous- ly wealthy. In addition to the constant employment which his own vast property gave him, he was trustee for ever so many widows, orphans and charities. He worked hard at accounts until the small hours in the morning. <A boy clerk at 15s. a week might have done it all for him.

But he preferred ‘‘doing his own work himself,” and accordingly he had to quit this inferior existence, where such a con- dition of things is not possible. ° One of the best-known men in the country told mo he was going to take a six weeks’ holiday at the seaside. I was rejoiced to hearit. No man better required or deserved sucha holi- day. Then he told me he was going to take his new book with him to the seaside, and hoped to have it ready for publication by the time his holiday was over. I expostu- lated with him. I explained that he was only exchanging one kind of hard werk for a still harder kind of hard work. But he took the advice of what is often a man’s worst counselor—himself. His book was successful; but he never knew of the suc- cess. —London Society.

PRINCIPAL:

The Rev, John Padfield.

HIS SCHOOL offers, at very moderate

cost. the advantages of a comfortable and

pleasant home together with a thorough and refined education.

The course of Instruction is the same as that of the best Schools in England and is founded upon the University Examinations for Women. Eight young ladies from this School passed the Local Examination of the University of King’s College in June last. This is the only School in Canada that has passed pupils at a University Examination,

The nuinber of pupils is limited, rendering the School select, and while it possesses all the educational advantages of a large public school, each pupil is enabled to receive that individual care and oversight which is so important, and which cannot be given ina large establish- ment, .

Mr. and Mrs. Padfield are*assisted by a staff of four resident governesses, besides visit- ing masters.

Parisienne French is taught conversation- ally. There are two resident French Gov- erncsses.

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman saya of the Constitutional Ren.edy.

T. J. B. Harprne, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:—

Deak Sir—It is now two years since your ‘Constitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced to me.: Ihave waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good to true.” I was afilicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward “drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like stnothering and be compelled to sit upin the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite clear of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head.

A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send yee this cara u Fieate. , with leave to make what use of it yon may see pro Yours truly, z f a
