The Hon. Peter Mitchell.
( From the Montreal Gazette. »
The latest canard comes from Ottawa in the shape of a despatch to the Herald to the effect that ‘‘some extraordinary revelations con- cerning the Administration of the Department of Marine and Fisheries under the Hon. Peter Mitchell, recently unearthed, will be made next session. They are said tobe of the most ** damaging character.” That such a despatch should be sent at such a time, only shows how bitterly the Government and their friends feel at the fact thateven in his temporary defeat Mr. Mitchell has been the receipient of marks of favor and evidences of popularty in his own Province, which the locally successful party have been denied. We do not suppose any one believes this latest story. Mr. MacKenzie aud his friends have devoted five years to the task of unearthing so-called scandals. The whole foree of the department has been em- ployed at times in this work. The Comuit- tees of Parliament, under the guidance of a tyrannical majority, have been engaged every session in similar work. And, after all, the Department of Marine and Fisheries. notwith- standing that during Mr, Maitchell’s control of it, itdid an immense amount of yaluable work, came out without discredit. And now, just as these gentlemen-are leaving the depart- ments, when they are busily engaged in des troying the evidence of their own misdeeds,— and remaining in office for that purpose after receiving from the people a most unequivocal notice to quit, we have this extraordinary story sent abroad simply upon the principle that if mud enough is only thrown, some por- tion of it is almost certain to stick.
There is a feature of this malicious attack, however, which should not be overlooked. Mr. Mitchell, during the last five years, has been in Parliament ready to answer any attack made upon him or his ement of the de- pana over which he presided for six years.
is conduct in Parliament certainly did not indicate that he had anything to fear from his opponents. His opposition to them was pre- nounced and vigoreus; and he knew them well enough to know if they could injure him, they would not be restrained by any consideration they might have entertained for him. During the whole of that time no word was uttered of this great exposure. But now, when for the moment he is out of Parliament, and not therefore in a position to meet his traducers on equal terms, this malicious slander is sent broadcast over the country. The Government and their friends are counting without their host in this matter, however. If half that we hear of the means by which Mr. Mitchell’s de- feat was accomphshed be true, his opponent’s triumph will be very short lived. The Courts will soon re open the constituency, and then it will be seen that Mr. Mitchell, although tem- porarly beaten, is not vanquished; and that the electors of Northumberland only wait the

The Fishery Award.
A Washington despatch to the New York World says that, ‘‘ Aside from the interest felt in the result of the re-opening of the con- troversy over the fishery award, from the fact that the arbitrator was M. Delfosse, the Min- ister from Belgium to Washington, some of the members of the Diplomatic Corps are from higher considerations inclined to informally discusss the possille upshot of the correspond- ence so lately inaugurated by the Secretary of State. The result of this is the impression that the award will be paid and not set aside. In fact the claim that the award was not agreed to by the American members of the commission, and is therefore invalidated, is regarded as a most untenable one, from the fact that an arbitrator is selected on all inter- national commissions to decide only when either representative of the respective govern- ments is a dissentient, and that this was ex- pressly provided for in the Treaty of Wash- ington authorizing a commission on the fishery dispute. The further claim that the commis. sion went outside of the real issue, and vir- tually included inferential damages in the award of asum in gross tobe paid Great Britain, is said to find its parallel in the Geneva award, where a large sum in gross was awarded to the United States after the latter had abandoned a specific claim for consequen- tial damages, but which, nevertheless, covered a large excess of actual damages, as the distri- bution of the award has shown.”
The award is payable, by the terms of the treaty, on November 23rd next, and in that time the President will be called upon to des cide whether, under the law of the last sesa- sion, he will refer it back to Congress or direct its payment.

Miscellaneous News.
ee
A Berlin special confirms the report that Dr. Petermann, the great geographer, com- mitted suicide. He was divorced from his first wife in 1877, and remarried. Four months ago his recently divorced wife commenced to persecute him. He also suffered great bodily pain, and was haunted by the fate of his father and brother, who killed themselves. These things combined drove him frantic, and he hanged himself.
The Russians are much pleased with Puncii's eartoon of Lord Beaconsfield as ‘* Humpty Dumpty” sitting on the wall. It has beer copied into the illustrated papers and leading articles written upon it in the dalies. The translator experienced some difficulty in find- ing an equivalent for Humpty Dupty in Russ, and at last bolted it entire as ** Doompty,” with the foot tiote appended the word implied ‘‘ something big, broad and breakable like an egg.”
The members of the English medical pro- fession are determined to have, if ibke, a large number of representatives in the House of Commons at the next general electior. Medical men complain that at present they are almost entirely without representation, while the bar, the railway interests, trade, commerce and all the other interests have numberless spokesmen in Parliament. Dr. Andrew Clark, it is said, will be urged to stand for the University of London. Sir Henry Thompson is also spoken of as a pro- bable candidate for a seat.
Dr. P. G. Tait, Professor of Physics at the University of Edinburgh, and a colleague of Sir William Thomson, has transmitted to the International Review, of New York, a reply to the recent article of James Anthony Froude on ‘Science and Theology.” Professor Tait holds that there is no incompatibility between science and religion, that humanity does nct require a new revelation, and the t me- jority of Christendom do not expect it; that from the most absolutely common-sense view, independent of ail philosophy and speculation, the only religion which can have a rational claim on our belief must be suited equally to the necessities of the peasant and of the phil- osopher, and this is the specially distinguish- ing feature of Christianity.
BaLtimore, Mp., Oct. 6.—--A tragic affar occurred at St. Stephen’s Catholic Church- near Franklinville, Baltimore County, about 7 o’clock this moruing, involving the fatal shoot, ing of Joseph Miller by John Shanahan. It is charged that, about two years ago, Miller bc- trayed a sister of Shanahan’s, at that time only ten years old, and, after the affair became known to the girl’s friends, left the locality, returning only a few weeks since. Shanahen saw him for the first time since his return this morning at the church, and at once ay- proached him. Miller exclaimed, ‘‘ Hallo !” which greeting Shanahan returned with a similar exclamation, and, drawing a revolv- er, fired upon Miller twice, one shot pene- trating his left breast, and the other his abdo- men. Dr. Gittings entertains’ little or no hope of his recovery. The parties all moved in respectable society. After the shooting, Shanahan proceeded to Towsontown and sur- rendered himself. He is about 22 years old, and bears an excellent reputation. Miller is between 35 and 40 years old.
