DWARD ISLAND, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1878.
NEWS BY TELEGRAPH.
Lonpon, Oct. 22.
A Vienna despatch says it is expected that, at the meeting of the Reichsrath to- day, Baron Von PretesCognado will inform the House that the resignation of the min- istry has been accepted, and that he has been charged with the formation of a new cabinet. The house will then, no doubt, adjourn and the real work of forming the cabinet be taken in hand, as the intention seems to be to form, if possible, a parlia- mentary cabinet which may reckon on the support of a majority. This can only be carried into effect by negotiating with the parliament of parliament, as it were. Here there is no trace of parliamentary parties, but only fractions, which must be combined to get a ready working majority, although
athered in different parliamentary clubs.
he cohesion of the fractions is rather loose, there being a tendency to secede and join other clubs ; nor was this surprising as long as the ministry, instead of leading parliament, stood outside of it, having little or no influence. The process of getting together a parliamentary majority must, under these circumstances, be rather slow. On Sunday most of the clubs held a pre- liminary conference, and on Monday the more prominent men of the liberal German clubs met Baron Von Pretes Cognado to hear overtures and report upon them in their respective clubs.
BERLIN, Oct. 22.
The North Geiman Gazette, commenting upon the Ultramontane opposition to the Socialist bill, declares that so long as the Ultramontane party in the Reichstag forms a centre around which all elements blindly hostile to the institutions of the Empire and Prussia group themselves, every at- tempt to terminate Kulturkampf by a peaceable understanding must remain fruit- less, notwithstanding the best of intentions on the part of the Vatican.
Lonpon, Oct. 22.
Stafford Northcote, speaking at Wolver- hampton, admitted that he was not able to say he was sure there would not be renewal of war; it was impossible to ignore the fact said he, that difficulties are being reised against the execution of certain parts of the Treaty of Berlin.
FREDERICTON, Oct. 22.
Robert Robinson, Esq., ex-M. P. P., has been appointed a member of the Legislative Council in the place of Hon. John 8. Saun- ders, deceased.

The liabilities of Cowper, Scott & Co., of Glasgow, are $20,000.
Berwin, Oct. 22.
Before leaving for home, 264 deputies in the Reichstag signed a declaration that, in view of the protectionist measures adopted in the neighboring States, a reform of Ger- man tariff is indispensible.
Lonnon, Oct. 22.
The Limited Liability Cotton Spinning Companies, of Oldham and Ashton Under- lyne districts, publish a very unfavorable report of the last quarter’s business. Of 30 companies one will pay a dividend of 34 per cent. per annum, nine reports very small margines of profit,and twenty report losses, some of serious magnitude. Further reduc- tions in wages are threatened at Bolton, Oldham and neighborhood.
A Constantinople despatch says Admiral Hornby, in the despatch boat Helcion, has gone to Cyprus to meet the Lords of the Ad- miralty. On his return the fleet will anchor in the Gulf of Ismaid. The intended with- drawal of the fleet from the vicinity of Gal- lipoli has been abandoned in consequence of recent movements of the Russians.
Bessarabia was surrendered to Russia on Monday. All Roumanian authorities have quitted the Province.
There have been runs on some buildin associations, and a very uneasy feeling sti prevails, which may develop into a panic at any time.
Cowper, Scott & Co., of Glasgow, en- gaged in the African trade, have failed.
Lonpon, Oct. 22.
It is thought that an advance into Af- ghanistan will be impossible for some time. The fever is steadily increasing among the troops stationed at Jamrood and encamped on the frontier.
Vienna, Oct. 22.
There is a deficiency of 15,307,740 florins in the Austrian budget for 1879, which it is proposed to cover by the issue of gold rente or by an addition to the floating debt.
Rome, Oct. 22.
Prime Minister Cairole to-day informed King Humbert that the whole cabinet had resigned. The King protested warmly against this action, and ead that even if the Cabinet persisted in resigning he would charge Signor Cairole with the for- mation of another. Signor Cristi publishes a letter attacking the Cabinet for humili- ating Italy in the eyes of Europe. This in- creases Signor Cairole’s difficulties.

The Orange Cases.
(From the Montreal Gazette. )
We are are quite sure that there will be, among those who have watched the so-called Orange trials, but one feeling, that of re- gret that our Courts of Justice should have been made the scene of so solemn a farce, The objection taken by witnesses to declare themselves to be Orangemen, or, in other words, to identify as Orangemen the per- sons who had been arrested, which they could not do unless they were Orangemen, which was sustained in the highest Court, made it impossible that any decision could be obtained upon the question which was really important, namely, whether the Or- ange Society in the Province of Quebec is an illegal association ; and all the proceed- ings subsequently taken, therefore, it must have been known, from the first, would prove abortive. The end is precisely what everybody expected it would be ; although one may well feel amazement that a number of people should have been for days kept away from their business, dancing ance upon the Courts, in reference to a case which has resulted in se mis- erable a fiasco. We notice that a cou of our contemporaries over the question of which contention has been vindicated by the result of these trials. The truth is that nothing has been decided. The matter remains precisely where itdid before the 12th July last, ex- cept that we have had another illustration of the power of the Magisterial Court in this city, is that free and easy administra- tion of the law to which the long. suffering people of Montreal so. meekly submit, to annoy and harass those whose misfortunes it may be to be brought before it. Beyoud that nothing has been settled.

A NuMBER of citizens of Dakota have taken about 100,000 acres of land near Fargo, which they intend to cultivate on the principle ef co-operation. There will be a superintendent to every 2,000 acres, and the land will be tilled on the most ap- proved scientific system. The enterprise is well calculated to succeed, and those who have embarked in it are doubtless convinced of the soundness of co-operative efforts in agriculture. There is, perhaps, no buasi- ness in which this system could be carried out with greater prospects of success than in farming. In America farms are not cultivated well by any means, and the de- crease of population in some of the New England States of late years has been di- rectly traced to ignorance and wasteful cropping. A large, well organized co- operative farm has all the advantages of a governmental system, and can be made immensely remunerative,

Some curiosity is felt in literary circles as to the execution of the biography of the late Charles Mathews, the inimitable actor, which has been undertaken by Mr. Charles Dickenr, commonly called (though he is middle-age i and the father of a large family) “‘young Chad les,” to distinguish him from his celebra sire. In spite of his parentage, and his inti- mate connectiou with literature asthe editor --the indefatigable and vigilant editor—of All the Year Round, Mr. Dickens is not known és the author of any book, and is not understood to be a contributor even to his own periodical. The, so to speak, official life of his father was written by the late John Forster, and a sup- plement, to consist of the author of ‘‘Pick- wick’s miscellaneous correspondence, which is in preparation, is to be edited by his aunt, Miss Hogarth, a sister of Mrs. Dickens senior. The life of Charles Mathews will be the ‘‘young” Charles Dickens’ first book. His father, you may remember, once wrote or edited *‘Memoirs of Grimadi the Clown.” A life of the late Charles Mathews isa somewhat | higher biographical enterprise.
