The Pictou Branch.

An Ottawa despatch says:—‘‘It is under- stood that the Local Government of Nova Scotia are quite unprepared to furnish the Dominion Government any reasonable proof of the completion of the Eastern Exten- sion, and are also unprepared to show that they have any proper equipments for the Pictou Branch, even though it should be entrusted to their management. It is not probable that the Dominion Government will accede to their demand to hand over the branch until more tangible and satia- factory evidence is placed before them. <siailipiichaes

The Route Through the Rockies,

Rey. Dr. Grant, principal of Queen’s College, Kingston, who has just returned with Sandford Fleming from a trip through the Rocky Mountain route of the Canadian Pacific, reports Major Rogers in charge of the Rocky Mountain survey, having suc- cessfully achieved a triumph for a direct line. There are three distinct passes as follows: In the Rockies proper, Kicking Horse; in the Selkirk range, Roger’s Pass, and inthe Gold, or Columbia range, the Eagle pass. This virtually settles a long disputed question, and gives the Canadian Pacific the shortest of all trans-continental railways. From Winnipeg to Port Moody on the Pacific is only 1,480 miles. soncoliaonans Summerside Exports.

Tur WeaLtniest IN THE WortD,—The tacts and figures gathered by the census and other means of a like nature will show this to be the wealthiest nation in the world, says @ Washington despatch. Counting the rail- roads,shipping, lands, live stock, investments, houses and furnishings, and all representatives of wealth, the grand total of wealth is put down at $50,000,000,000, while that of Great Britain is nearly $10,000,000,000 less. The wealth per inhabitant in this country 15, therefore, practically $1,000 per head. In Great Britain it is a little above that.

It is just as possible that we may in time raise up 4 man here who is, if not the equal of Hanlan, at least the equal of any English champion of former days. I don’t think we have any right to oer we could raise up a man to the equal of Hanlan, who is one entirely by himself; but it is quite fair to suppose we could raise up & man the equal of Higgins or Kelley, or Renforth or Cambers, or whosoever may be taken by his admirers to be absolutely the best English sculler that ever lived.”

The race for Halifax harbor champion- ship will take placeon Thursday next, either on the harbor or Bedford Basin as the weather permits.

Hosmer on his final return to Boston last week was givenadinner by his admirers, and made a speech in which he promised to take good care of himself through the coming winter, and to bring the champion- ship to Boston next season if possible.

An Australian contemporary announces that so great was the furore created when Laycock expressed his willingness to row Hanlan on the Paramatta river for £1,000 a side, that the amount of his stake money could have been forthcoming three times over.

The Government Suit against the Bank of Montreal.

The following are the particulars of this case. In 1881 the Bank of Montreal which acted as the government bank, re- ceived from the treasury department a cheque for $30,000 on the Bank of Prince Edward Island, which at that time had a running account with the Bank of Montreal, and acted as the latter’s agents in the Is- land. The cheque was accepted by the Bank of Montreal, and credited to the gov- ernment account in that bank. The cheque was then forwarded to the Bank of Prince Edward Island, and this institution after holding it for two or three days charged it to the government account, A short time afterward the failure of the latter bank came, and the Bank of Montreal, to secure itself, reversed former entry, and charged the Government with the $30,000 lost by the failure. The government claims, however, that the bank is the re- sponsible party and should bear the loss, and entered an action against the bank to
