NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—Oriicial reports of the North-West and Maniteba harvest indicate an abundant

vield that all turns uapen the har- vest weather,

SO

—At is mteresting to recal! that it is now a imtie more than a year since Andree set out on his balloon vovage to the North Pole. In what part of the 3,000,400 miles of un- known territory he has fouad a restiag piace is a myetery, and will probably ever be ove.

—The Mai! aod Empire thinks the time may yet come when Spaniarce and Ameri- cans will stand together at Manila for tne purpose of cispersing the imeurgent forces. it willbe a curiou- spee‘acle when the bell'gerents of the spring become allies of the summer.

_ The United States papers are pubilish, ing extracts f om Sr Richard Cartwright’s, old speeches about reciprocity, and catur- ally fiod them very much to their taste. For Sir Ricbard’s sake aud for the sake of Canada, asthe Gazette remarke, it was to be hoped that the =peecves would have been forgotien.

—It is announced that the United Sta‘es Governmeut wi!) assume liabilities for the claims for damages preferred

to $20,000,800, and «nie likely to reach

rher

4 lig igure. There is a suggestion that some of thLismay te recovered from

the Cuban insurgents after they have form» eda Goveroment, bnt that not very likely. UneleSam is evidently going to pay a big price for bie summer outing.

{8s

—The Victoria Colonist says it is amus- ing to read the claims in our Liberal con- tem poreries as to the credit attaching to the Laurier ministry for the good times row being enjoyed by Canada. These same papers, when tines were good before were very particular to have it understoo] that the Conservatives had nothing to do with it. The truth of the matter ia that good times and bad times come and go without any particular reference to what any government may io,

—The Government of Cape Colony is to hold aSouth African Exhibitioneat Gra- hamstown, in December next. There is said to be @ good openirg in South Africa for business in agricultural mplemente, carriages, farpiture, hardwir: and machinery. At presentthe United States g°ts the great bulk of tLe trade, but tie-e 1+ no reason whv Caneda should not get a lirger share. Exhibits will be admitted free, aud the Montrea) Gazette thinks that the Canadian menufaciurer might take the opportunity to exteud his business,

—Premier Greenway, of Manitoba, has stopped exhibiting bis fat cattle because his political opponents made capital out ot his prize-winning. The Montreal Star points out in this convection that when the Queen’s herds carry off the ribbons at the Smithfield cattle shows her Icyal compet tors do not object and her subjects tee! proud. This shou) afford “ Farmer” Greenway an excellent reason to join the Liberal procession to |Jngland to find out how popularity and cattle prizes go hand in hand. Tie Manitoba Premier is about the only ove of Lauricr’s “ good friends” who las not hada trans-Atlantic jannt at the country’s expense ¢ nce June, 1896,

Mareaiew av Moncroyn. — The Central Methodist Church was filled by an admir- ing throng at 14 o’clock yesterday after- noon to witness the marr lage of Miss Blanche Colpitts, a prominent young member of the Central Charch, to Rev. J. B Champion, of St. Martin’s, N.B. The church was handsomely d-corated for the occasion. The bride looked charming dressed in a fawn travelling suit and was unattended. Asshe entered the church th» wedaing March from Lohengrin was piayed by Prof. Watts, who officiated at the organ, and the choir of the church

During the ceremony, which was per- formed by Rev. W. W. Lodge, assisted by tev. Geo. Ross, the choir also sang “How welcome waa the call.” Mendellsohn’s wedding march concladed a very pretty and effective ceremony. Immediately after the ceremony the young couple left on the

Sresmer’s Narrow Escare.—The big Cunarder Lucania, on which Mr. F. P. Carvel wasa passenger, had a narrow es- eape from colli: ion with a sailing vessel on the Banks. The Lucania was four days from Queenstown and was groping her way through a fog. The sailing vessel is said to have passed soclose that the pro- verbial biscuit might have been tossed from one chip tothe other. Thisis probs ably au exaggeration, but the passengers on landing at New York were loud in their praises of the seamanlike manner in which the British liner had been managed. She steamed slowly, and her big foghorn | boomed every minute. The two vessels had ample warning of each other’s ap- proach, and the Lucania’s officers and men were thoroughly alert and self- possessed.

CHINA’S REAL POTENTATE.

The Empress Dowager Assumes the Reins of the Government.

Tacoma, Wash. Ang 3,--Late Pekin despatches say thatthe Empress Dowager o1 China bas relieved the Emperor ot all real power, openly taking to herself the direction of the Empire’s af- faira. The Government Minieters now apply to her for instrec~ tions on all impcrtant matters. She hax dismissed the mmperial tutor, Weng-Tong- Ho, with reprobation, from all his offices,

Viceroy Wang-Weng has been called from Tien-Tsin 10 become a member of the Tsung-li- Yamen.

The most important change made is tl e reascendency of Lix~Huog-sCuang, who ba- always been the Dowager Empress’ faye ourite. By her influence he will likely be made sole Minister for Foreign Affairs, as the Tsung-li-Yamen is bemg filled with weaklings whe will not oppose Li.

The British element in China con- sider this move very important. because of Li’s marked Russian tendencies Late in June at the Foreign Office occurred a sensational verbal tilt between Li and Sir Clande Maclonald, the British Min-~ ister. Before the entire Tsukg-li-Yamen Li told Macdonald that his fune- tionwas {to lessen difficuties, not to create them, and intimated that unlese MacDonald changed his manner China would demand his recall. Macdonald 'be- came indignart, and accused Li of abusing his power and betraving his country into the bands of its deadbiest enemy | Russia. The conteation waxed furious for sone time, to the actual terror of all the Chiwese @fficials present except Li.
