SMALL REVENGE.—The old grey mare owned and driven by the Rev. 8S. G. Lawson, was shorn and shaven last night, both tail and mane being closely clipped. Thisis a small and mean piece of business, but just what might be expected from the authors of the Orange circulars. They well deserve to be kept in the cool shades of opposition twelve years longer!

A Jcpce in Iowa has just entered « decision that a fellow is bound to tell his wife where he spends his evenings when he is away from home. It may be the cause of a good deal of lying, but it will result in good. If a wife spent her evenings away from home, and half the time could not fiad the key-hole when she returned, the old man would likely inquire : ‘* Where have you been ?”

Mar. Cuas. D. McAtrrxe, one of the well known publishers of Directories in the Mari- time Provinces, is now in town for the pur- pose of publishing a Directory and plan of Charlottetown.

Mr. Tuomas Caron, a commercial traveller, attempted suicide on the afternoon of the 19th at a brewery on Simcoe Street, Toronto, by shooting himself in the head with a revol- ver. He was taken to the hospital where the wound is not considered fatal. Caron travell- ed in the Lower Provinces for an oil firm and for the brewery company and had been in- dulging in a prolonged spree. He expressed his regret that the shot was not fatal. He was a married man and about 50 years of age.

AnoTuer accident to a circus train occurred at Danielsville, Conn., on Saturday. As the train was drawing out from the station a platform car loaded with empty animal vans jumped the track, wrecking several vans and instantly killing an employe named Wiley. The top was ripped completely off a cage con- taining some eight or ten monkeys—the entire menagerie and the monkeys escaped. One of the monkeys made a break fora hotel near by, and after demolishing a mirrer made its escape through a window. Robbins estimates his loss at $15,000.

Cuavrcu Tea.—We call the attention of our readers to the Tea advertised to be held on Wednesday, the 28th inst., at Cherry Valley. The Methodist people (Rev. George Steel, Pastor,) are repairing and renovating their Church, and are deserving of help. The Tea will be held in the Church. It will be a pleasant drive of between 11 and 12 miles from the city. No doubt many will take advantage of the drive, and also help at the same time a good cause, There will be a sup- ly of choice sweets, temperance drinks, etc. iiforts will be made to give visitors a pleasant afternoon and evening.

Aw American paper has applied for a copy- right on a new word, ” It is far better than abscond, and conveys a clearer meaning. A bank president may go off on a leave of absence and drift away to foreign shores with great deliberation, and, his ac- counts being short, be termed an absconder. But the cashier who jumps aboard the light- ning express and strikes for Canada is an ab- scooter, from scoot, to slide out; ab, from.

THe general verdict of the smokers of the Myrtle Navy is that it is the they have ever used. There can be no mis- take upon this point for it is proved by this tangible evidence. The large demand for this tobacco shows it to be true, and the character of the demand gives further proof. It has never been of the spasmodic kind, up one month and down the next. It has been a sus tained and constantly increasing demand. The unsurpassed quality of the tobacco ac counts for this.

We understand that advices have been re- ceived from the Dominion Government that an order in Council has been passed recommend- ing that in view of the decision recently given by the Privy Council in England in the Ex- change Bank case, it would not be in the pub- lie interest to press to the full extent the claim of the Government against the Bank of Prince Edward Island, but that instead the Government rank as an ordinary creditor. This action of the Government will enable the Liquidators to close the affairs of the Bank without much further delay and they can pay the depositors about 10 per cent. more than if the Government had insisted on payment of ‘ts claim in fall—a right which the Supreme Court of Canada decided it had. The decision in the Exchange Bank case was decided in the law of Quebec and in no way touched on the Government's right to payment in full from the Island Bank, but the Government evident- ly thought it would be unfair to act different- ly in the two cases, even although the law enabled it to do so.

Bosten Markets.

Boston, July 17. Poratogs.— There has been a short sup- ply of potatoes the past two days and prices have advanced. The best grades are in de- mand at $3.50 per bbl., but with more liberal receipts, prices would soon drop off again.

Eaes.-—The market has sustained a firm tone, with a good demand for fresh stock. Eastern extras have been scarce, and readi- ly sell at 16} to 17c. Nova Scotia and P. E. Island firsts are selling at 15$c., and Canadian, 15c.

Fisn.—The jobbing trade is steadily im- proving, but the market for round lots is about as dull as ever. Receipts of mack- erel continue small, but dealers have no courage to operate. Recent consignments from Nova Scotia are held for higher prices. The best quotation is $5 to $5.50 per bbl. for new No. 3. Old continue quiet at $4.50 to $5.50 per bbl., as to quality. Fresh mackerel from Nova Scotia command full prices, say $7 to $8 per 100. Pickle cured Bank Codfish are quiet at $2.25 and dry at $2.75 to $3. Very little demand for Pickled Herring and prices are nominally unchanged. Canned Lobsters, $1.45 to $1.50.

PortLanb, July 21. , , , . W.S. Jordan & Co.. the schr. Harrineton, who wrote to the Canadian Minister of Customs, a few days ago, asking for the remission of the $400 tine recently

owners of

imposed upon their vessel for a tr vial violation of the Domimion cus- toms laws, have received a_ reply in which Minister Bowell writes: “The laws are rigidly enforeed

against our own vessels and cannot there- fore be relaxed in favor of those of foreign countries. It is true gt much leniency was allowed during the existence of the Washington Treaty, but that was, as I un derstand it, by mutual consent on both sides of the line, but since the repeal of that treaty the law has had to be enforced.”

Mr. Burleigh, of Williard & Co., said to- day that the draft which the Captain of the schooner J. L. Kennedy had given for lighthouse dues when in a Canadian port was presented for payment to-day, but his firm declined to pay it as they did not be- lieve that the Canadian authorities hada right tu demand it.

Active but Unfortunate Practice |

Haurrax, July 21.

McGuire, a member of one of the hose reel teams which are to take part in the Firemen’s Tournament, fell and broke his collar bone, while running ina race at a picnic yesterday.

Gentles, a member of the Dartmouth hose reel team, fell under the wheels of the hose reel on the polo groun@@last night, whilst practicing and had his arm broken. Both are considered to be about the best men of their respective teams.

The Dilke-Crawford Seandal.

Lonpon, July 21. The Crawford-Dilke case is still on. The courtroom was again crowded yesterday. The evidence presented was decidedly the

most interesting yet given in the trial. Mrs. Crawford testified that she disliked her husband because he was too old: that

she loved Foster because he was handsome and of pleasing manners; that she hated Dilke and¥committed adultery with him for the sole purpose of obtaining a divorce from her husband, and that she spared Foster because he was about to marry. Under a strict cross-examination she con- fessed that she had committed adultery only with Sir Charles Dilke and Foster, and exculpated two other society men who had been previously incriminated. A re- markable feature was when Mrs. Crawford was asked some questions, for imstance, with regard to the French vice of adultery, etc., she answered with the utmost calm- ness, ‘‘Yes,” and even smiled, thus showing that she was an utterly abandoned woman who gloried in her shame.

Rioting in Marseilles. Paris, July 21.

in Marseilles last evening mobs attacked the officers of the royalist papers. A force of gendarmes defended the building success- fully, preventing the rioters from sacking the premises. The mobs turned upon the gendarmes and severe fighting ensued. The police and soldiers overpowered the rioters and finally restored order. A number of the rioters were arrested. Many of the police are seriously wounded.

Serious forest fires are reported as raging in the mountains near Farewell, B. C. These probably originated the canard about the second burning of Vancouver.
