Ottawa Notes.

Orrawa, Aug. 31. it is understood that two tenders have been received for the proposed Transatlan- tie Steamship Service. These will be con- sidered on the Premier's return to the capital.

The printing of the revised list of voters has just been completed .

To-morrow will be the first celebration of Labor Day, and as it has been proclaimed a civic holiday it will doubtless be generally observed. The celebration will consist of a grand parade in the morning, platform meeting at noon, and field sports in the afternoon.

The Dominion ritle matches commence at noon to-morrow. There are already four hundred entries, and post entries are ex- pected to swell the list considerably. The range has been somewhat improved, and the experiment of firing in threes instead of twos is expected to shorten materially the time required to complete the matches. All the provinces are represented,

An Eventful Voyage. Rimouski, Aug. 31.

The mail steamer Vancouver arrived at 5 a.m. after an eventful yoyage. Soon after leaving Moville she met a gale, and fortwo nights and aday the decks were swept by heavy seas. One passenger was washed by a wave against the vessel and had his leg broken, others suffered lesser injuries. On Friday morning while ‘pro- ceeding slowly an enormous iceberg loomed up directly ahead, and before the steamer could be checked she crushed into it. The iron plates at the bow were bent out. There was considerable alarm. Capt. Leu- dall recorded in the log, ** one of the most trying voyages | have had for many a year.” There were three hundred intermediate and steerage passengers and two hundred saloon.

A Strange Case.

Etta Simpson, aged 17, living on Bonac- cord Street in this town, went to sleep on ! Sunday last and has not yet awakened, nor ! has she taken any nourishment.
