A correspondent of the “The Hon. William Camphell, missioner of Public Works, and T. J. Bai- ley, the Governinent Engineer, were in Souris last week. Their mission was open- ing a new street and'arranging jabout land” damages. By this visit Mr. Campbell has saved the Government some hundreds of dollars.

The New Minister of Militia at the Club Cartier.

Says the Quebec ¢ hrenit le of Friday:

Notwithstanding the very inflement

weather, and the short notice given, there was a Jarge and influential meeting of the

Club Cartier, and other friends of the Hon-

orable Mr. Caron inthe club reoms Jast evening. Amongst others were the Presi- dent, Mr. ‘T. C. Casgrain, Hon. Atterney- | General Loranger, Hon. Solicitor-General

Lynch, fon. P. Garneau, Mr. Vallee, M. P., Mr. Tourangeau, Mr. Valin, Mr. Hamel and Hon. Mr. Sullivan, Premier of Prince Edward island. A resolution was adopted amid loud cheering, congratulating the Hon. Mr. Caron on his being called to the Privy Council, to which the hon. geutle- man replied in a happy speech. resolu- tion was also adopted, thanking Hon. Mr. Sullivan for his attendance, who replied, thanking the meeting for their kind recep- tion of him. The ,jhon. gentleman is a pleasing, and, to judge by his few remarks, an eloquent speaker. Hon. Messrs. Loran- ger, Lynch and others also addressed the mee‘ing—all promising assistance in the event of a contest, but which the general impression seemed to be would not take

Word-Hunting—I.

UMPIRE- GULLIVER,

Max Muller, speaking of the science of Etymology, says : ‘* Mere guesses, however plausible, are completely discarded from

the science of Etymology. We know words

to be oF }

the same origin which have nota singie letter in common, and which differ in meaning as much as black and white. A derivation, even though it be trne, is of no real value if it cannot be proved—-a case which happens ne’ unfrequently.” Bear- ing these words in mind, these papers will endeavor te prove the derivation of the words presented. If the proof cannot be given—‘*acase which happens not unfre-

qguentiy’’—the anggestion must be taken for what it is worth.

With reference to the’ word Umpire, con- jectural Etymology has been very buay. Accurate scholars have found that the old spelling nompeyr (Piers Ploughman’s vision) left no doubt that this word eame from the old French nompair, uneven, odd. But now, there is much doubt concerning this derivation. A trutwwretched guess is that given by Webster, viz.: unperium, com- mand. In aecepting nompcir «s the origin of the word, we should be taking a simple adjective as representing a person, which is very objectionable if we can find a substan- tive. A substantive is soon feund. The Freneh homme, man and pair, equal, shew to us at once THE IMPARTIAL MAN, the great quality of impartiality being desired ina referee. Hlomme-pair, or Homo- “par (Latin), have some resemblance to Umpire.

Comtnentaters have been found expound- ing on the most philosophical gnd_ recon- dite principles, parts of Goethe's ‘** Faust,” which the author himself pronouncee tu be

not only without meaning but. absolute nonsense. The same principle prompts

sume persons to deduce the name of Swift’s

hero * Guiliver” from the words Gull-i-ver, to deceive or guil in truth. To gullin iruth, would be avery awkward expres-

sion, and there is a strong presumption that ‘* Gulliver” possessed no such inten- tional meaning on the author’s part. To the present day, in that part of the country where Swift spent many years, the name Gulliver is a well known naine, and many

families rejoice in its well known reputa- tion MAIL SELRAHC, ee. ~<a
