A LECTURE was recently delivered in

Montreal, showing thet consumption is often caused by drinking milk from diseased cows. Said the lecturer: ‘* The imparting of con- sumption from animal to man has been so clearly proven that the theory is now scarcely ever called in question. The mother feeds her child from the milk of a diseased cow, resulting in the premature death of many a young man and woman.” Tre barque Eliza Barss, which arrived here op Sunday, the 16th inst., sailed yesterday morning for Bermuda with a cargo consisting of 3,000 bushels oats, |,200 barrels potatoes, and a quantity of barley and other produce. she carried on deck 12 horses, 8 head of cattle and 20 sheep, and a number of geese and tur- keys. The cattle shipped were very fine ; among the best ever exp ort-d fiom the Island, and were bought from Hou. D. Ferguson, H. Longworth, Esq., and other well known breed- ers. The barque was loaded by Mr. Horace Haszard, of this city, for the firm of Pearman, Watlington & Cv., of Hamilton, Bermuda, who are also the owners of the vessel.’ Mr. Watlington, of the above firm, was on the Is- land all last week, and thinks very highly of it. He was much pleased with the cattle shipped, and with the despatch in loading the vessel.

Home News from Abroad,

A San Francisco, Cal, exchange contains the ‘ollowing despatch:

**New York, Oct. 11.—J. E. Grant, who has returned from Prince Fdward Island, re- ports progress in the work of connecting the Island with*the mainland. A submarine rail- way is being constructed by a well known New York engineer, through which in all sea- sons of the year, freight and passenger trains will pass between New Brunswick and the Islan The subway will be nine miles in length, and soundings have been made by the Dominion Government, the route fixed, and wharves constructed on the New Brunswick side. The only means of communication be- tween the Island and the mainland during the winter time has been by means of boats, fitted upon runners. The New York engineer has guaranteed to build the submarine railway for $5,000,000, and will allow the Dominion Government twenty years in which to pay its cost, he furnishing the necessary capital for cariying out the work.”

How true it is that it is sometimes neces- sary to go abroad to learn'what is happening athome! Mr. Grant’s intentions may have been good enough, but he is just a “little off” with reference to the progress of the subway.
