Two first-| class passengers and cargo (win-prepell-| er boats will be built en the Clyde this winter, and will be put on the reute early next season. They will be of a| suitable length to pass through the|

canal and have accommodation for One | hundred first-class and one huodred | iIntermé@dlate passergers and 700 tons ot) cargo, besides bunkers and will steam | Une ol}

The other will leave Boston Saturday, | arriving at Halifax Monday, and North | Sydney Tuesday. They will be timed ! so as always to make the 1:uu through | the lakes in the day time. In the | winter season they will be employed| betweed the West [ndies and ports north of Hatteras in the sugar and pas-| senger tradg.

Building Towns and yet Poor.

It is curious how often the men who are capable of the greatest entei prise fall short of achieving financial success, Mr. Grainger, who rebuilt Newcastle and earned for himself the soubriquet of the Northern Haussmann, was finan- cially as unfortunate as from an arehit- ectural point of view he was succesful. And now asimilar case is reported from Birmingham, where Mr. Alfred Humpage has failed, with liabilities estimated at £130,000. After build- ing a large central areade’ with suites of offices, a large colon- ude iD New-Street one of the arehitectural features of the town, and a Birmingham Lincoln’s Ion, he has colapsed. The extent of his assets is not yet ascertained,but they are expec ted to exceed the liablities. The failure is reported to have beon caused by Mr. Humpage’s liabilities under the covenants of mortages of property which he owns outside the centre of the town, and which he has been called upon o meet— Pall Mall Gazette.

The “ Princess Louise” Disaster.

Regarding the loss of the “ Princess

Louise,” at Digby Gut, Captain Scott, |

R,N. reports:— ‘Seeing that the barometer had been falling since noon, and that Captain Guilford had a valu- able charge upon his hands, it wasa grave error in judgement not to attempt to carry the ship into a place of satety before nightfall. When the * Princess Louise” left Cumberland Basin she ought to have been better prepared for the voyage; her bow anchors should have been shackled on board and all her sails bent to be used in case of necessity. It is now impossible to ascertain why these things were omitted. When the hawser parted it was impossible for the Newfield to afford any assistance to the “Princess Louise,” as it was as much is she could do to save herself, but had the sails been bentin the new ship they both could have proceeded on their voyage with the wind abaft the beam.”

The Colored Man His own Bene- factor.

The Brooklyn Eagle says, the real benefactor must bea negro himself. As soon as the Americian of African descent has put forward representatives of his own race who can hold their own against white men inthe departments of life, intellectualiy, morally and socially, he will find his equality recog- nized. ‘Till then he will not, because there will have been no evidence of its existence. He will not win it by legis~ lation whicb is based upon folly and which seeks to give him privileges that are still denied in some parts of the country to white foreigners.

The Milwaukee millers are getting

down to some nice points in the econo-|

mies of their business, as is so generally the practice nogvadays in all industries, They have resolved hereafter to use only ten-hoop instead of twelve-hoop barrels. Some of the millers have been using only ten hoops for months, but on December 4 the Millers Association passed a resolution that all would here- after use only ten-hoop barrels—after the present supply of barrels was used up—on all their patents and other flour. It is said that in this way they will effect a saving of three cents a barrel, or enough to pay the cartage on wheat and the subsequently cartage on the flour. a

The old project of a railway between Vaudreuil and Ottawa, which,as our readers will remember, was an alterna- live proposition to the Northern Colo- nization Railway when the latter was projected, is being revived; and applica- tion will be made under the coming session of Parliment for a charter authorizing its construction. The rail- wey would be of great sdvantage to the counties of Vaudreuil, Prescott and

ussel, opening up an important section of country, and would compete with x Canadian Pacific and the Canada

Uaatic for a share of western traflic.
