General Grant has sailed from Hong Kong for Japan.

The Champ de Mars, Montreal, was . . * . ? lighted by the electric light during the parade of the Prince of Wales battalion.

It is said the Spanish Government contemplates re-establishing a state of siege in the Basque Provinces.

In England, since January, six car goes of American cattle have been found infected with plearo pneumonia.

The St. Catharines City Council has rranted $75 to the fire brigade for the proper observance of the Queen’s Birth- day.

General improvements, notwith- standing the general cry of hard times are being made this spring in and about Quebec.

J. Bird, an Ottawa dealer in boots and shoes, has received an order from the Countess of Dufferin who is now at St. Petersburg.

The following cities will hold their Queen’s Birthday celebration on the 26th: Hamilton, St. Catherines, Brant- ford and Cobourg.

The Brooklyn Presbytery at its meeting on Monday refused to take any action with regard to Talmage’s manner of preaching.

The Indian Government has offered a loan of £5,000,000 at 43 interest. Nine-tenths has been taken at 94, prin- cipally by Indian bankers.

The retirement of the Hon. Mr. Masson from the Ministry is again spoken of as imminent, and Mr. Coursol, of Montreal East, is freely spoken of as his successor.

Three or four ordinary gas flames consume as much atmosphere in a room as a dozen individuals, and unless ven- tillation is supplied the human system will inevitably suffer.

A Paris despatch says it is reported there is a possibility of the marriage of the Archduke Rudolf, Crown Prince of Austria, to the Infanta Maria del Pilar, King Alfonso’s sister.

Phosphate mining is being again vigorously carried on in the rear of Frontenac, Ont. The price of the article is said to be again advancing ; it has been very low for a long time.

It has been discovered that persons who work in petroleum if they have any bronchial troubles, are at once re- lieved of them; pulmonary affections ulso yield before the same influence.

Dr. Newman, in replying to the Con- sistorial messenger announcing his ele- vation to the Cardinalate, made a long speech, the gist of which was that he would hereafter, as he had in the past resist with all his power the spirit of liberalism in religion, the doctrine that there.is no positive truth in religion, that one creed is as good as another, and that this is the teaching which is gaining substance and force daily. It is inconsistent with the recognition of any religion as true.

An O_p Masonic Document.—Says the Amherst Sentinel :—‘ We have been shown a very old, masonic document, dated 1784, and in the year of masonry 5784, being a dispensation granted by the Grand Lodge of Halifax, John George Pyke, Grand Master, and J. Peters, Grand Secy., to William Allan, jr., to form a lodge in Cumberland. It is not known whether a lodge was formed under that dispensation, or not, but there are few older lodges in Nova Scotia than the Amherst Lodge.’

Lord Beaconsfield, in his speech in the House of Commons on the 29th ult., on the distress enquiry motion, said:—“L think it cannot be denied that a state of great national prosper- ity is quite consistent and compatible with this country being in favour of pro- tection of nativeindustry. Thatis a po- sition that was years ago denied ; but I think that the experience we have around us, with the experience we have of France and the United States of Ameri- ica, the two most flourishing countries now existing, it cannot for a moment be maintained that the protective system is not consistent and compatible with its flourishing condition.”

The Talmage case is likely to occupy the attention of the Presbyterian Ec- clesiastical Courts for some time to come. The recent trial of D . Talmage was on the charge of falschoo.! and de. ceit. Itis known that some co. those who voted in his favor at the recent trials are severe critics of his sermons, and he may not get through the Pres bytery without censure. [is adver- saries, who are dissatisfied with the result of the trial, will take an appeal to the Synod of Long Island, which is composed of two Presbyteries outside of Brooklyn, numbering about eighty members, and the members will try the appeal, as the Brooklyn Presby- tery will be regarded asa party. This trial cannot take place before the an- nual meeting next October.

"9 the Editor of the Examiner.

Sin,—The New Era and Herald are hard on our city representatives—Messrs. Pope and Brecken —anent the Railway and other Do- minion offices. Perhaps it would not be amiss—and it would certainly be amusing— if these gentlemen favored the public with the number of applicants for each office sup- posed to be at their disposal. Many an office- seeker-——though he may not have one solitary qualification for the otlice he covets—thinks his claim the only one entitled to considera- tion. And yet the largest share of the acci- dents that are daily happening on railways, etc., are clearly the result of carelessness or incapacity. ‘The lives of the travelling public cannot be entrusted to men who are realy, rashly, to undertake the performance of cuties ' which can only be acquired by long practice and carefulness. For my own part, I would rather, when travelling by rail, etc., put my safe keeping into the hands of a practical and experienced (though case-hardened) Grit, than trust to an inexperienced, though well- intentioned, Liberal-Conservative.

True it is that to the Grits we owe the sentiment, ‘‘ Vo the victors belong the spoils” ; and it would be only justice to the men who have borne the heat and burden of the fray, that they should reap whatever benefit may accrue from the advent of their Party to place and power. But a certain amount of discrimination is at once allowable and necessary. Though a wholesale removal of the Grit innocents might be acceptable to many, yet it might not, perhaps, in regard to public interests, be altogether a prudent move. The recent dismissals of the heads of depart- ments is a beginning which foreshadows the appointment of Liberal-Conservatives to the subordinate oflices as vacancies or opportun- ities may occur. The old Scotch gentleman’s advice to the young Hotspur who sent him a challenge, ‘‘Dae naething in a hurry but catching fleas,” was a sage advice, and appli- cable in many cases besides his own.

No one can, for a moment, doubt Messrs. Pope and Brecken’s eager readiness and wil- lingness to favor their political friends. But these gentlemen are not in the position of dic- tators nor autocrats of the Dominion. ‘They can only have their say on matters in general, and can have but little in their power in mat- ters of detail, and, doubtless, at times must waive their ewn wishes and opinions in defer- ence to those of their colleagues.

Like the fable of the countryman and his ass they are to be pitied if they attempt the hopeless task of trying to please everybody. But they are too old campaigners to do that. Yours, ete., A LIBERAL-CONSERVATIVE, May 17, 1879.

The Death-rate of

Onur country is getting to be fearfully al- arming, the average of life being lessened every year, without any reasonable cause, death resulting generally from the most in- significant origin. At this season of the year, especially, a cold is such a common thing that in she hurry of every day life we are apt to overlook the dangers attending it and often find, too late, that a Fever or Lung trouble has already set in. Thou- sands lose their lives in this way every win- ter, while had Bosshee’s German Syrup been taken, a cure would have resulted, and a large bill from a doctor been avoided. For all diseases of the Throat and Lungs, Bos- ehee’s German Syrup has proven itself to be the greatest discovery of its kind in medi- cine. Every Druggist in this country will tell you of its wonderful effect. Over 950,- 000 bottles sold last year without a single failure known.

CATAR REL

Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES CATARRE.

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy.

ARRIVE,

——

T. J. B. Harpine, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:— DEAR Sin—It is now two years since your ‘Constitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced tome. Ihave waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the Dy effects seemed to me to be “‘too good to true.” : I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in man ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying lon I would feel like smothering and be compelle to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriousiy affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quacter o the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not ssed any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head, A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- rompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of if yon may see proper. Yours truly,

W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister. Port Elgin, Ont., Aug. 24, 1878. Ask for Littlefield’s Constitutional Catarrh Remedy and take no other, T. J. B. Harprxe, Dominion Agent, Brock- ville, Ont. For sale by all Druggists at only one Dollar per bottle.
