Serr nent neem certs weet Naming the Baby.

They ga her in solemn council The chiefs in the household band ; They sit in the darkened chamber A conclave proud and grand ; They peer in the curtained cradle And each with one voice exclaim, As they point to the new-found treasure, ‘* The baby must have a name !

They bring forth the name by dozens, With many an anxious look ; They scan all the tales and novels, They search through the good Old Book ;

BRKINS & TERNS.

Till the happy-voiced young mother Now urging her prior claim,

Cries ont in the fondest accents — “Oh vive him a pretty name

“His grandpa was Ebenezer s Long buried and gone, dear soul,

Says the trembling voice of grandma ‘As the quiet tear-drops roll. x

“Oh ! call him Eugene Augustus, Cries the youngest of the throng—

‘* Plain John,”’ says the happy father, ‘‘Is an honest name and strong.

And thus is the embryo statesman

Perhaps, or the soldier bold,

Respecting his future title Left utterly out in the cold ! And ye®, it can matter but little To him who is heedless of fame’ For no name will ionor the mortal, if the mortal dishonors the name.

The Opposition Press and the Pa- cific Railway.

Com “eNnTING on the decision of the Gov- ernmerit to adhere to Burrard Inlet as the westeri: terminus of the Canada Pacifie Railway, the St. John ‘‘Telegraph” adopts a very (lifferent tone to that of the ‘‘Patriot.” | Tho ‘elegraph” says :—

‘We. hardly expected the Government would have done so well for the country, and we give them such credit as is due for working on this and other lines of their predecessors in pushing on a work which however prudently managed, will severely tax the financial resources of Canada to bui!2 it, and, perhaps, still more to run it.

The Telegraph says further: ‘*The im- portant fact is that the read is progressing as rapidly as the circumstances of the coun- try will admit, and this at atime that the} eyes of so many cultivators of land in the old country are turned towards Canada, and that, as lately pointed out in the Telegraph, the members of the English Land Commis- sion were on a visit to the Northwest and spoke warmly in regard to it. In an article which we published the other day on this subject, we referred to the urgent need of bringing Marritoba into communication with the rest of Canada by means of a railway having its terminus at Thunder Bay, on Lake Superior. That desirable consumma- tion, it is expected, will be reached by the Ist July, 1882, and there is a possibility that it may be accomplished sooner.”’

The Toronto Mail says: The public

3 recognize the fact that the Opposition have

a bad time of it. To denounce the adep- tion of this route, and yet claim credit for Mr. McKenzie as its originator; to abuse Sir John for ‘‘neglecting and betraying his constituents,” and yet to approve of that betrayal and neglect; to declare that the time is too short, knowing that if it had been longer they woukl have sworn it was t20 long—a role like that is too difficult even for such expert charlatans as our Grit con- temporaries and the greater charlatans who inspire them.

The Montreal Gazette says :—‘‘The ac- tion of the Government in fixing upon the Burrard Inlet route as that for the the British Columbia section of the Canada Pacific Railway has ‘had a depressing in- fluence upon the Opposition press. As the best they can do they are claiming that the Minister of Railways has been compelled by their efforts to change his opinions. As a matter of fact, although it was attempted to be shown, both in Parliament and in the press, that the repeal of the order-in- council fixing Burrard Inlet as the terminus means the adoption of the Bute Inlet route, Sir Charles Tupper emphatically protested against such an interpretation being put upon his action. He repealed the order- in-council simply to leavethe question gpen, because, although there were strong opin- ions in favor of the Burrard, Inlet there were also strong opinions in favor of the other. As he had to take the responsibility of finally deciding the question, he resolved to get further information. information has been obtained and it has resulted in the Burrard Inlet route, for which Sir Charles, in his speech in Parlia- liament, expressed his own preference, being adopted. That is the whole matter and it is difficult to see where the ground for tle attacks upon the Government comes in.

SHIPMENTS TO ENGLAND.

A despatch from Toronto, dated October 14th, says :—‘‘ Mr. Robert Cummings, of Ottawa, has received a letter from Liver- pool in reference to the exportation to Eng- land of horses, sheep and cattle. The writer strongly deprecates the idea of any further exportions from Canada this season as the market is over supplied. He suggests that persons should export geese and turkeys about the middle of November, as there will be an active demand for them. He also recommends the exportation of pota toes, as there has been quite a falling off in the potatoe crop in England this-year.”

FREIGHTS.

A further advance in leading produce prices has served to restrict busiress for trans-Atlan tic ports, but with light arrivals and a limited supply of available tonnage the stronger rates current at the close of last week have beer sustained, and some grain vessels have been taken to arrive for November loading at very ‘nearly spot quotations. Long voyage tonnage continues exceedingly scarce and very much wanted to load oil, ete. for the far East at full rates. With this exception the petroleum trade is quiet, with rates steady, and for special cargoes very strong. ‘There is very little inquiry here for cotton tonnage, but at the Southern ports there has been considerable business, especially by steam, at the quota- tions current in our last, say 7-16@16-32d. from Atlantic ports, and 14d. from the Gulf to Liverpool by steam, and such charters as have transpired have been given during the past week. Naval store freights from the South remain quiet, the rates offered bein relatively lower than or obtained for grain a other cargoes. Deal freights from the British Provinces also continue relatively low, and the Season is so far advanced that no sub- stantial improvement is now leoked for. There has been a further advance in wheat freights from San Francisco to Europe 60s per {ton having been paid for wooden ships and 65s for iron to direct ports, which are the highest paid for a long period. There has been a mederate business in short foreign freights, especially to the Windward Islands, and full rates have been paid, but the Brazil and River Plate trades continue quiet with quotations nominally as before. Cvast- wise rates remain substantially the same as for the past four monts, if we except weaker rates ‘on lumber, with an average business.

Murphy Wins the O’Leary Bolt.

A New York despatch of the 11th says The greatest enthusiasm was caused in the O'Leary walk about 8.30, when O'Leary strode along beside little Briordy, and had to run to keep up with him. Murphy went to his room at 8.37, having made 505 miles and one lap. At 8.45 here-appeared wear- ing the O'Leary belt and rolling before him a wheelbarrow filled with bricks. The ap- plause was deafening, Murphy retired at 8.51 with a record of 5054 miles. He was taken out quietly by a side door and went to his hotel. He was put to bed. Briordy, the plucky little Green Point man, struggled along until 10.21. He finished 475 miles ; he was then taken off. The only man left on the track was Howard going for his 500

miles. The official and final score stood :— Xetired at
