THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF CANADA A POL- ITICAL DOCTOR.

| J am conscious that the only personal claim I have to represent Her Majesty in thi- country is that I have had some experience in that great law making assembly in Great ‘Britain, her House of Commons. But here ] cccupy a position unknown in the consti- tution of ether countries, as a political doc- ‘tor, because whatever prescriptions I give ‘must be such that they can hardly be ‘visible to or appreciated by the public. -They must be written in invisible iuk, and ‘I can only give a prescription at all when [meet with other physicuns in consulta- ‘tion; and any remedy given must be given, not by myself, although it may be acmin- \istered by any others of those whom | meet ‘in consultation. This is a peculiar posi- tion and one which is totally incomprehen- sible to many foreign docturs.—The Marquis of Lorne at Kingston, in June, 1879.

inictsienalle LORD CHIEF JUSTICE MANSFIELD’S ADVICE TO A GENERAL ABOUT TO ACT AS A COLONIAL JUDGE, | A general officer in the army, a friend of Lord Mansfield, came to him one day in great perplexity, saying that he had got the appointment of Governcr, of a West India Island, which made h:m very happy till he found that he was-not only to be Commander-in-Chief, for which he thought himself not unfit, but that he was likewise

THE PULTENEY GUINEA.

William Pulteney, afterwards Karl of Ba‘h, was remarkable alike for his orateri- cal talents, and his long and consistent op- position to the measures of Sir Robert | Woelpole, the great Whig Minister. On the ‘Lith of February, 1741, a time when party

fee.ing was at its height, Walpole received ‘an intimation inthe House ef, Commons ‘that it was the intention of the Opposition to impeach hin. Toethis menace he te“ R clied with his ustuabeconposure and self- complacence, merely requesting a fair and

with the quotation from Horace of,—

it Nil.conscizg sibe, nulti pallescere tuplae.”

(To be conscious of no guilt; Amd “to Carn pale at no charge.)

With his usual tact, Pulteney imuie- ‘diately rose, and observed, ‘that the right honorable gentleman's logic and latin were

jalike inaccurate, and that Horace whom

j

he had just misquoted had wrirten, * nla palles-cere culpa.’” Walpole maintained that his quotation was currect, and a bet was offered. The matter was thereupon referred to Nicholas Hardings, Clerk of the | House, an excellent classical echolar, why \decided against Walpole. The Minister ‘accordingly took a guinea from his pocket and flung it across the house to Pulteney. The latter caught it, and holding it up ex- claimed: ‘‘It’s the only money I have re- ceived from the Treasury for many years, and it shall be the jast. This guinea, hav- {ing been carefully preserved, finally came into the hands of Sir John Murray, by lwhom it was presented in 1828, to the , British Museum, The following me- ;morandum in the handwriting of | Pulteney, is attached to it: ‘* This guinea I desire may be kept as an heir-loow.” It was won of Sir Robert Walpole in the House of Commons; he asserting the verse in Horace to be *nulli palles-cere culpac,' whereas I laid the wager of a guinea that it was ‘nulla palles-cere culpa.’ He sent for the book, and, being convinced that he had lost, gave,me this guinea. I told him I could take the money without any blush

GUILLOTINE.

This instrument of death was not, as is generally supposed, invented by Dr. Guii- lotine nor was he one of its vietims, as has jbeen frequently asserted. Dr. Guillotin had nothing whatever to do with it, though by a combination of circumstances it came to be eventually called by his name. It was first called La Lowison, from Louis, an eminent surgeon and secretary tothe College of Surgeons in Paris, who, in March, 1792, improved the mechanism and recommended the adoption of an old instrument of the same kind. Dr. Guillotin was very much annoyed at finding his name attached to this instrument of death ; but he lived to the Restoration in extensive professional practice, and was much respected, in spite of the afffieting associations of his name,

INDEX EXPURGATORICS,

The ‘Index Expurgatorius’’ means at Rome, where the expression originated, ‘© A catalogue of the books whose publica- tion is only prohibited until they have been purged or corrected.” The “Index Pur- gatorius,” or simply the ‘* Index,” means ‘“A catalogue of the books actually and strictly forbidden or prohibived to be read.”

A Lively Eviction Scene.

A Dublin despatch of the 1th says:— Eleven persons were arrested yesterday at the eviction of Farmer Somers at Colliole. Somers and his assistantsoffered strenuous resistance to the evictors all day but were finally overpowered. Two hundred police arined with a battering rant attacked the house, which was fortified with earthworks and surrounded by treiches, Aiter three hours of hard fighting an American gentle- man who was present among the spectators, offered to pay half of Farmer Somers’ rent if the police would cease their attack. This offer was,’ however, refused. The attack was resumed and an unsuccessful battle waged by the constables till 6 o'clock, when the gabe of the house caught fire. Mr. Redmond, M. P., and Canon Doyle, who were present, then advised the defenders of the place to leave the burning building. This they did, and all who had been in the house were arrested.

A Wounded Heart.

A novel breach of promise case is threat- ened in Moncton, in which William Craw- son is the plaintiff and Mrs Gaskin defend- ant. Crawson is a widower aud Mrs. Gaskin a boxom widow who lives at Coverdale, about three miles from Moneton. The fair widow is the owner of a fine farm, and Crawson has been wore or less about the place for some years, part of the time as farmer in charge. The couple at «ne time frequently drove to church together and were in each other’s company to such an extent as to cause some gossip, but in the course of time love did not run smooth in this case, the pleasant relations between the couple were ruptured and Mr. Crawson wants $5,000 as a solace for his affections. The fair defendant is reported to be about 45 years of age and has a grown up daughter.

—- Italians and Finns.

About three hundred Italians and Finns from New York, arrived here this week, and will go through to the provinces, They are secured under contract to work on the Bay Chaleur R. R. some 130 miles from, Moncton, N. b., which isaiow being constructed. Mr. Horneck, the superintendent of construction on this read, anda veteran railroad builder aod contractor, js im the city to-day, and he says that men for railroading are scarce in the provinces, and they cafinet get men enough to do the work:. He pays the Italian dott mea from $1 to $1.40 per day, but the men car live well on $2.50 a week in that country. —- Bangor Commercial.

Detective Power's Claim.

A Saco, Me., despatch of the 15th inst., says : Detective Nicholas Power of Halifax, who last winter presented a claim to the Saco and Biddeford Savings Institution for ser- vices in arresting defaulter Frank C. Me. Neally last September, aud a claim for the reward offered by the bank for the stolen se- curities, has begun legal proceedings against the bank. A writ of attachment to the amount of $10,000 has been served on Treas- urer Melville H. Kelly. The case will he tricd at the September te: in of the Supreme Cotitt of York county. Frank C. MeNeally, the young deiaulter, is still in the Dominion of Canada. He has not yet settled down to work. It is believed that the bank paid him all or part of the reward offered for the stol- yn bonds after they were returned to the in- stitution.
