Telegraph Notes.

The schooner ‘‘Addie Winthrop” arrived at Gloucester, Mass., on the 11th inst., with Mr. Edgar Parsons, wife and six children, taken from the wreck of the schooner ‘‘Herald,” of LaHave. They were passengers from St, John’s, N. F., bound to Boston. The vessel was towed into Port Hawkesbury.

M. Herrison, Minister of Commerce, has commissioned M. Lomdelet, Vice-President of the National Union of Commerce and Industry, to go to the United to study American manufactures, and report whether improved methoda may not be borrowed by France, with a view to the counteraction of the formiable competition of American with French products throughout the world.

A despatch from Hong Kong to Reuter’s Telegram Company states that two war steamers have started from Hong Kong to protect life and property at Canton. A despatch states that there is reason to be- lieve that after a preliminary understand- ing relative to the Tonquin question shall have been arrived at by France and China, England will tender her offices for a settle- ment of the Tonquin difficulty.

| A despatch from Hong Kong states that a Chinese mop at Canton burned the houses of several European merchants and also their wharves, causing great consternation among foreign residents, most of whom sought refuge on the vessels in the river. No violence was offered to their persons. Chinese troops were called out, which quickly dispersed the rioters. On receipt of the intelligence at Hong Kong several gunboats were despatched to Canton.

A despatch from Paris to the Exchange Telegraph Company, states that M. Tseng, the Chinese Ambassador, prier to leaving Paris for London, communicated with M. Challemal Lacour, the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, relative to the reinforce- ments of French forces in Tonquin. In reply, Challemel Lacour says he cannot stop the despatch of reinforcements while there is danger of war, and that this can only be made by the settlement of a basis npon which a treaty can be made.

The demonstration of Waterford, on Sun- day, under the auspices of the Irish Nation- al League, was attended by over thirty thousand persons. The meeting passed resolutions demanding a Parliament for ireland, not only in name but in reality, and declaring that Ireland must have that which England, from necessity, had granted Canada because Canada was rebellous. The adoption of the resolution was greeted with loud cheers. Michael Davitt, in his speech, denounced the Land Act as entirely inade- quate to thé needs of Ireland. He stated that not over one-sixth of the land cases had yet been heard, and that when they had been all settled the reduction of rent would not amount to £100,000.

The Standard’s correspondent at Paris says: If the article of Republique Francaise represents the views of M. Challemel Laceur, a Chinese war is merely a question of days, and will involve the expulsion of the ministry that entered upon a war which the country utterly rejects. It is stated that Germany has edvised China, through Li Fong Pao, ta arrive at an agreement with France. The Chinese Government has taken the greatest precautions to pro- tect foreign representatives at Pekin. During a riot at Canton on the 11th inst., the mob threw the contents of the build- ings they attacked upon wharves and looted

them. The riot lasted several hours, and order was not restored until the arrival of the Chinese troops. The natives are so excited against

foreigners that a renewal of the riot is mo- mentarily expected. A despatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company, from Paris, says the rioting in Canton has caused a great sensation in all circles and will, it is feared, result in a collision between the Frencb and Chinese.

TEE DAILY BXAMINER, SHPTHMBER 18. 19&¢

Totelligence reached Halifax on Friday that a man had been shot and dangerously wounded near St. Margaret’s Bay, on | Tuesday last. The man who committed |the deed is a brother-in-law of Mr. Wm. | Maher, whose wife was visiting her father’s |house, the latter being ill Mr. Mahar, | accompanied by his brother Michael, went |to see his wife, and when about leaving the house was requested by his mother-in- jlaw to take with him a barrel of apples, | which she wished him to dispose of for her. Wm. Mahar and one of the Umlah’s, took the barrel of apples and started with it down the road, followed by Michael Mahar. When they had got a short distance from the house, Dave Umlah, a brother of Mahar’s wife, seized a shot gun which was standing in a corner, and pointing it out a window, deliberately fired after the three

'men, the shot taking effect in the side of the head and face of Michael Mahar. He.

fell to the ground but was picked up by his companions and conveyed to his home, and medical assistance summoned at once. All the shot have been extracted, and it is said the condition of the wounded man is favorable. A warrant waa issued for Umlah, but up to the present his arrest has not been effscted.—St. John Telegiayh.

A Sketch of Lord Melgund.

The new Governor General of Canada is to be congratulated upon the fact that he will be accompanied to Canada by Lord Melgund, who goes out as private secretary. Lord Melgund, although only in his fortieth year, has seen considerable active service. He joined the Scots Fusilier Guards in 1867, and retired in 1870, but in 1877 was attached to Colonel Lennox,the English military attache with the Turkish army. e was present at the bombardment by the Russians of the Turkish works Nikopo- lis, and also at the crossing of the Danube and the retreat of the Turks on Biala, and was a short time with Riouf Pasha on the south side of the Balkans. He came home to England knocked up; but in 1881 he joined Sir Fredrick Roberts in Afghanistan, and served as a volunteer with him in the Kurum Valiey. He also took part in the Egyptian campaign, and was wounded at Matffar, the first action after leaving Is- maile. Lord Melgund is honorably known in the sporting world, and under the nom de plume of Mr. Rolly, won several races. In 1876 however, he ceased to ride between the flags, and now that he is about to be- come the husband of a charming young lady—who will accompany him to Canada— he. will devote more of his time to the graver duties he is well qualified to dis- charge. —London Figaro.

The fact that the Marquis of Lorne is soon to retire from the office of Governor- General of Canada and return to England has set the English press speculating as to his future. It is widely believed that he will be appointed to succeed Lord Ripon in India, Of this the London World says:— ‘The report that the Marquis of Lorne will proceed to India as Governor-General when Lord Ripon retires has been renewed with such persistency and has commanded go much credence that it cangot be summarily dismissed as an idle fiction, The chief re- commendation of this appointment is popu- larly supposed to be the circumstance that the Marchioness of Lorne is a Princess of the English Blood Royal.” Another rumor, published in the Figaro, is that the Marquis is to be called up to the House of —_ by one of his father’s supplementary titles,
