Halitax Herald: The “Canadian Gov-

1 eroment Railway Sysiem which cut such a

figure some months ago, appears to have faded away from the scene of the present. The new time tables bear the vimple aod rensible old legend, “lotervolonial Rail- way.”

St. John Telegraph: The people of the United States are now beginning to under- staud something more about actual war than they did atew weesxs ego. They hav~ discovered that it is not a holiday partime to be lightly undertaken, but a serious and bioedy businese, the last argu- ment of kings or of nations, aad only to be embarked io when everything else bas failed. It is well that this view of war should ¢ink deep into the mind of every Christian nation, for unless it is made the governing-idea in the relation of nations towardseach o'her there can be no peace in the world.

Moncton Times: Sir Adolphe Chap- leau’« estate is shown by his will to be not more than $125,000. This is nota very large sum for aman of his talents and opportuniticva, Ie nearly every #mall town 10 Canada there may be found men of very mediocre ability whoare posse-ted of large fortunes. When Sir Adolphe was inactive politic, on the Conservative side, his Opponents were woot to credit him with the possession of great weal.h,

tbe im outatio) being of curse that he hax,

secured it by questionacle means. The “ame charge, equally groundless hus beep mede against Sir Charies Tupper and other public men, some of whom when thev die may ijeave estu'es even less vainable than that of Sir Adolpbe.

Montreal Star : [t was arevil d y for the country when the epoilemen and = the spendthrifts of Liberalism got on top. Much was expected from Sir R chard Cart» wright, but he appears to have gone to sleep in his sentry box. Sir Oliver Mowat was another hope, but he was bardly ip the Government until he was out agai. The Senate has done much for us, block- ing the Yukon outrage aad the Dram-~ mond County folly, bat still we are paying more taxes, we are being bled for more exper ditare, and weare being addled with more debt than we ever bad to bear urder the Tories. The Supply bill is the smugzler which does usthe greatest barm, and the S nate has vo power 10 make it stop and Oven ite susp cious pack. If the alleged ecooomists iu the Ministry wil! not stand on guard, we have no defence until this Parliament has run its course

St. Joho Suv: Mr. Blair’s business mapagementof tue Lucercolouial is a worn out topic. He agreed to pay $2,097,000 for the Drummond Counties railway, aod when the senate refused consent be im~ mediately secured an option of the same road for $1,600,000, with a lot of extra improvements thrown in. He agreed to pay the Grand Truok five per cent interest ut the cot of al] extensions snd im rove- ments in the railway and te. menus used by both roads. The s-n.te would**not allow tnisand a few months later Mr. Biair wade avew arrangemen® calling for On'v four per cent interest og less than half tne cost. Mr. Blair took: over the Baie "- Chaleurs railway to be a vaiuable teeder and # source of protit to the Intereolouia! During the period of operation the rosa earned $6,725, while the working expenses were $15,679, making a dead loss of $11, 954.

Tne Revation or Trva>ip Morranity AND SevernaGe.—Typboid fever is the sanitary index of acity. The mortality has everywhere declined with impruve- ments in the sanitary conditions. Mr. J W. Hill, av eng-neer, hus receatly tabulat- ed the statistics Of sixtystive cities with reference to the death rate from typhoid fever during the five years 1890-4 inclu- sive, and has grouped them into seven Classes. I am sorry to say that Class I, © wprising thirteev cities which have a death rate from typhoid fever under teu p-r oue hundred thousand living, contains no Ameriean city. On the other band, Clas VIL, which compri-es thirteen cities with a death rate from typhoid fever over sixty per one tmodred thousand inhabi - ants, all are in this country, except Milan, Cairo, aod Alexandria. The lesson of sev- era) of the European cities is worth reed ing. I can take timetoreferovlyto Mu nich. The moriality per one hundred thousand of inhabitants in thet city in 1857 was two hundred and nineiy-one, aid kept at a high rate until about 1865, when there wasao improvement in the water supply, with a reduction of almost fifty pr ceot,in the number of cares of typbod fever. Afer theistroduc ion of the new evs em ofdrainage the mortality was «tll firther reduced, and iw 1837 it was only

tea per one bundrel thousand of the inbab- -

CAPTURE OF A VETERAN.

By the Commander In Chief of Dis Head- quarters.

‘Say, mister, bave you seen a mean lookin little cuss with a blue suit an brass buttons on hangin raoun bere this week?’’ said a tali woman to the clerk at a Lewiston hotel] Friday.

‘*Don’t know that Lhave. How mean does he look?’’ was the reply.

‘‘He pertends to be a vitran,’’ con- tinued the woman regarding the clerk over her glasses, ‘‘an ginrally about Grand Army time he disappears from his wife’s bed an board an goes off an licks the hull south. I want to see him. I want him to come home.’’

Up the corridors came the sound of laughter.

A party of veterans were telling tales of war.

A familiar voice smote upon the air. The womun’s lips closed tightly.

“I tell you, comrades, I jes’ enjoyed that air fight at Chancellorsville more’n I did the bull durned muss from fas to Jas’. Yousee, Gin rul Jackson was off on to our lef’ a-trampin like the very devil to outflank the Union lines. That air mornin my cap’n he sez to me, sez he, ‘Jake, you take a detachment o’ five men ap go aout an see what Stonewall’s doin! Ef you suspect—ef you suspect,’ sez he—‘that there’sany kind o’ sneakin er beatin aroun the bush goin on, you jes’ lay low an kyboot for the Union lines.’ ‘Well, sez I’’’—

Just then a woman sheved through the throng and liuked her arm in his.

The words died on his lips? The fight died out of his eyes. A spasm passed over his countenance that left it asickly green, the color of the hide of a sour cucumber,

*‘Jabez,’’ said the woman, ‘‘be you here a-lyin ag’in? What made you take that air boss au drive him here to this G. A. R. spree? Hev you been a-drink- in? Hey you been a-forgettin of your commandment net to lie? Did you tell these gentlemen that as fur as you got to war was to Augusta, an thet you got so feared over there thet you was sick for three weeks? Gin’rul Jackscu! You little lyin thing you! Did you tell tbe Grand Army men that you was drafted an thet they couldn’t find you fer six weeks where you was a-bidin in the woods?

**Come bome, Jabez—the caows and the pigs need you.”’

And tbe little old man in the blue coat looked up into the woman's face with a gray, misty, tearful look in his eyes. The glad light that had been in them was gone. His little bit of glory Was at an end.

Poor old fellow—after all!—Lewiston (Me.) Journal.

BONAPARTE’S DAUGHTER.

The Princess Charlotte Spent Many Happy Months In America.

**Queen Julie never joined her hus- band, Joseph Bonaparte, the fugitive king of Spain, in this country,’’ writes William Perrine in The Ladies’ Home Journal, ‘‘but late in 1821 their daugh- ter, the vivacious young Princess Char- lotte, determined to console ber father in his exile. She arrived at Philadel- phia in the ship Ruth and Mary, com- mapded by Captain Mickle. Tho ship's wharf was covered with a crowd anx- ious to see her. Only 19 years old, of highly animated temperament and de- lighted at the ending of the 40 days’ voyage, the young girl was in an ecstasy of pleasure, She waved her fur bonnet at tbe persons on the wharf with such careless delight that it fell from her hands over the ship’s rail and into the river. In ber transport of enthusiasm she snatched Captain Micklo’s hat from his bead, gayly placed it on her own and saluted ber admirers anew.

‘Joseph was highly pleased with Charlotte, whom he had not seen since she was 13, an tried to give ber as much compensation as he could for the pleasures of the continental life she had left behind. He took her to Long Branch and Saratoga, but he soon discovered that ber chief taste was for painting. Atthe old gallery of the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia were exhibit- ed.several studies and landscapes from her brush.’’
