Owrn_ CoNNOLLY, Esq., has just completed at Montague Bridge a warehouse 200 feet long, 46 feet wide, and 15 feet post, with mansard roof, at a cost of only $4,000. In its con- struction there were used 60,000 feet of boards, 180 m. shingles, 100 m. bricks, and 5 ton iron. There is a cellar beneath the building 9 feet deep, which is capable of holding about 50,000 bushels of potatoes. The building was put up in theshort space of one month. Mr. Connolly has two other warehouses at Montague, each two storeys high, and about 80 feet long. This would seem to indicate that Mr. Connolly must be doing a large awount of business at Montague.—Argus.

A Runaway.—It is said. when the tele- graph line was first put up on this Island, an old unsophisticated, in surveying it for the first time, was heard to exclaim: ‘‘What a fine thing it will be for the runaways. If they once get en it, the d-—l cannot catch them.” As arule, the telegraph is a bad thing for the runaways, although it often fails to overtake ticket of-leave-men. One of its greatest in- conveniences is that one cannot telegraph a capias or warrant orany other legal instru- ment. The other day one of the promising youths of a promising town in the east set out for Colorado without first paying his honest debts. Not many hours clapsed after his de- parture, before the whole town and part of the country round was fully aware of the ‘‘facts”’ of the case. The creditors of the youth, to the number of half-a-dozen made a general

stampede for the telegraph oflice. ‘Stop him” was wired in several directions. One of

the creditors, more impetuous and impatient than the rest, started in chase on horseback, only to find on arrival at a place abont 60 miles from home that the dishonest little bird had flown. Iwo constables, bravemen andtrue as everhandledasummonsora bowie-knife, were despatched in hot pursuit; but partly owing to the depth of the mud and the darkness of the night, this: braves were unable to pro- ceed further than a country inn, about four miles away, where they halted, baited, cried “eureka !” and turned back. An attempt was made by telegraphy to arrest the yunaway ata courttry towh intthe West, but the Colorada bound youth walked down the wharf past four constables who knew him not, went on board the steamer, and waved his hand triumphantly to the constables, who stood gazing after the steamer as she lent en- chantment to their view.

CANADIAN. Hatrrax, Dee. 7.

On Saturday the 250,000 for the Menuta- gue gold mines was paid over by the Am- erican purchasers.

The weekly 8S. S. ‘‘ Moravian” brought 1,836 tons freight—148 for Halifax, 56 1. C. Railway stations, 659 for the Upper Provinces and 971 for Baltimore.

A short time since the Nova Scotia Hu- mane Society offered a premium of $5,000 for the invention of an improved stock car in which cattle could be ~ fed and watered without remoyal while in transit. Mr. Thomas Clarke, of Truro, made a model of a ear which he believes will be admirably adapted for the purpose, and he has ap- plied for patents in Canada and the United States.

A new factory is to be started at Round Hill for the manufacture of pails, buckets, etc.

UNITED STATES. Troy, N. Y., Dec. 7.

This morning a fire broke out in Suther- land’s beiler shop on River strest. Heavy wind was blowing at the time. The flames immediately commmnicated with the ad- joining building, destroying one occupied as a boiler shop and machine shep; Monk & Hawley’s laundry and other property, including several maunfactories and mach- ine shops; six tenement houses and the German Lutheran Church. The losses ag- regate $360,000, 1800 employes, 1000 of whom are girls, are thrown out of empley- ment. It was the largest fire in Troy siuce 1852.

Naw Yor«, Dec; 6.

The Tribune says that several influential men from Mexico have been in this city recently, in conference with leading citizens discussing a plan whereby Mexico can be placed under a more stable Government. It is stated that the dictatorship of Mexico has been offered to Gen. Ben, F. Butler, but he has given no definite answer. It is also stated that Gen. Grant will visit Mexi- co at the invitation of leading citizens of Mexico with a view of obtatning his opinion upon the subject of the annexation of that country to the United States.

Sr. Lovis, Dec. 7.

Extensive arrangements have been made for a mass meeting of Imslimen to-morrow night to consider the best means of extend- ing aid to the needy peasants ef Ireland.

IRISH AFFAIRS. Lonpen, Dec. 6.

John Bright does not favor any large scheme for Government relief in Ircland, but hopes something may be done. Uo thinks there will be no difficulty in carrying a drainage scheme in Parliament. He re- commends the Irish meibers te unite with the Liberals, otherwise the fujure of beth countries is doubtiul. :

SPAIN. Maprip, Dee. 6. _A Cabinet Council was held to-night to discuss the Cuban Roforms Hill. There was a decided difference of opinion amoung the members, the Ministers of Interior, Justice, Finance and Works, being opposed to the measure in its present form. Al- fonso has accordingly asked Gen. Compos to iry and constitute a Cabinet. FRANCE. Paris, Dec. 6. There was a collision yesterday on the Eastern Railway line, near Bondy, during asnow storm. One person was killed and nine wounded.

Baker Pasha.

Cvionel or Pasha Baker’s career in Asia Minor, #8 representative of the Sultan, in tho administration of affairs in Asia Minor, will be watched in many quarters with the deepest interest. If he has the necessary power for the perfermauce of the task os- tensibly entrusted to him, a splendid chance is afforded him for winnning lasting distine- tion. He-is admitted to be a brillinut soldier and a man of fine capacity general’ y. Should he succeed in effecting in 2 solid manner the reforms provided for in the Anglo-Turkish convention, the results may be of vast importance in almost every point of view. Bui considering the obstacles to be surmounted, success on a large scale sp- pears to be extremely doubtful. It is un- derstood that his appointment is in ac- cordance with the wishes of the British Government.
