Loudon, Ont., in addition to a splendid

system of waterworks, has now a system This latter was put in operation quite recently. After describing the circumstances con- nected with the occasion, the Free Pers says :—

The boilers, two in number, are 26 feet in length and 60 inches in diameter. They are set on solid foundations on the ground level with brickwork in the ordinary man- ner. While they are ranged alongside each other, they will be perfectly distinct in action, and by a syste: of valves, une can be shut off from the other at a meoment’s notice. The fuel used will be oil tar, which, it is caleulated, will effect a saving of one-half on the cost of coal, and by the use of the burners, one man will be sufii- cient to control both boilers.

The boiler house is built of brick, 51 feet by 50, with a slate roof. In the centre of the buildings a large chimney, 86 feet in height, has been constructed, and the Com- pany intend, whenever the. demand will warrant the outlay, to have two or mere boilers placed on thd north side of the chimney. There is also reom forgtwo ad- ditional boilers immediately south of the ones now in use.

The steam which will be supplied te the consumer in the same manner as gas,will be paid for in proportion to the amount used, as indicated by a meter, and can be used for heating, cooking or motive power. The inyentor of this steam-heating system claims that it has many and obvious advautages. The air is purer and healthier and the heat. more equitably distributed than by anyother mode. Itis contended that by this system fires and the attendant annoyances and dis- comforts that result from carelessness. of servants are dispensed with; there is no in- convenience from dust being @rawn through the registers where furnaces are used; 1% does not necessitate the preparing of kind- ling, and the lighting of fires that have be- cone extinguished, or the removing of ashes aad especially Goes Tt possess"an “ad*an in warding of colds and inflamatory Ciseases from the sudden and great changes of tem- perature, and that the heat, moderate er extreme, is present at all times, and may be

jincreased or diminished by the consumer in

the simplest manner possible.

Lord Roseberry a Coming Man.

One thing Mr. Gladstene’s Scotch cam- paign has demonstrated ‘is the fact that Lord Roseberry is the most popular man in Scotland. Wherever he appeared he was cheered, whether the crowd were assem- bled in Edinburgh, Glasgow, or the coun- try side. Aithe installation of the Lord Rector at Glasgow, on Friday, he received an ovation secend only to that accorded to the hero of the day. The students leaped on the forms and shouted madly for ‘‘Roseberry.” But the young Earl is as modest as hoe is clever, and could not-be induced to take on himself to lengthen the progr@fmme by an improptu speech. ‘The same thing happened at the mass meeting in St. Andrew’s Hall. When Mr. Glad- stone sat down, the multitude yelled for Lord Roseberry ; and Dr. Cameron, being put forward to move a resolution, was fain to stand speechless for several minutos whilst the cry was for ‘‘Roseberry.” It was the old story of the managers recommend- ing Fal-de-lat-Tit, whilst the~audience in- sisted upon their preference for Fol-de-lol- Dee. Lord Roseberry’s brief speeches and his excellent management of the meetings he-was called on to preside have greatly raised him in public estimation, and streng- then the impression that we shall hear much more of him in days to come. —Lng- lish Paper.

A page of the Czar’s diry, if we may be- lieve the San Francisco News Letter, runs as follows: ‘‘ Got up at 7 a. m., and order- ed my bath. Found four gallons of vitriol in it, and did not take it. Went to break- fast. The Nihilists had placed two torpe does on the st«irs, but I did not step on them. The coffee smelt so strongly of prus sic acid that Iwas afraid to drink it. Found a scorpion in my left slipper, but luckily shook it out before putting it on. Just before stepping into the carriage to go for my morning drive, it was blown into the air, killing the coachman and the horses instantly. Idid net drive. Took a light lunch of hermetically sealed canned goods. They can’t fool me there. Found a poison- eus dagger in my favorite chair, with the point sticking out. Did net s#down oni . Had dinner at 6 p. m., and made Baron Laischounowonski taste every dish. He died before the soup was cleared away. Consumed some Baltimore oysters and some London gtout that I have had lecked up for five years. Wentto the theatre, and was shot at three times. in the first act. Had the entire audience hanged. Went home to bed, and slept all night on the roo! of the palace.”

Some people have an unconscionable lot of cheek. It isa notorious fact that if an affair or a Party_~vants puffing, the first thiags the parties interested do isto run to the local paper and ‘“‘sponge” in the way of pufling, what the publisher should get from five to twenty-five dollars for. Then if

handbills, tickets, &e., wanted, they give the job to some bummer or a printer in another town. If people who do this sort of thing think it is all right, well and good; but they would confer a favor on us when thoy call at our office on such business, by keeping a respectful distance from our irate editer. Patience in this case has long ago ceased to be a virtue.

The New }'rench Premier. {

Freycinet is a name which has suddenly been forced into prominence in the cable despatehes. -To the great masz of readers it is unknown, though it is quite above mediocre fame in France.. The man who is to head the new Ministry is Charles Louig De Soulces De Freycinet, who was born at Foix, Nev. Li, 1828, and was educated at the Polytecnic school, whence he graduated with honors as a student of engineering,

2 Was y at therage of twonty, on many important public works, and became at length engineer of the mines at Mont Marsau. He performed similar service at Chartres in 1855. He was then appointed chief engineer ef the network of southern railways, and made himself fameus as the organizer of a railroad system which. was copied by nearly every other company in France. In 1864 he was nominated ordinary engineer of the first class, and when the war with Prussia broke out, in 1870, was a member of the General Council of the de- partment of Farn-et-Garonne. The revolu- tion of September, which followed the fall of the Empire at Sedan, brought him te the front a® Prefect of that department, and when Gambetta became Minister of War in the provinces—still Paris was being slowly starved out—he made De Freyeinct his delegate, and gave Lim supreme control of the Province. The war ending, De Feryei- net retired to private life for a time, en- tering politics again, howeuer, in January, 1876, when he headed the list of saccess- ful cadidates for the French Senate from the department of the Seine. His term of expires in January, 1882. In the Dafaure Ministry, formed in December, 1877, he held the post of Minister of Public Works. Such is the story in short of the new French Premier.
