The Nova Scotia Coal Deal, SOME INTERESTING ITEMS.

Orrawa, Feb. 21.

Mr. Burns, M. P., left yesterday, en route to Englaiid. He will not return be- fore the House rises

The opponents of the Nova Scotia coal legislation in its present form take courage from the Premier's remarks in the House of Commons on Friday. Dr.{Weldon and his half hundred associates are confident that when Sir John Thompson makes himseif fully acquainted with the scope of the legis- lation he will see «ys to eye with them, fromjaC. nidian,as weilas an imperial stand-

vont. The last of the matter has not yet heen heard of cn the floor of the House of Commons or in the count:y.

Hon. Mr. Ouimet laid on the table the annual report of the Department of Pub- lic Works.

In reply to a question, Hon. Mr. Foster said that the Government was not yet pre- pared to give the particulars of the treaty signed with France.

Mr. McLean, of York, gives notice of a resolution that it is expedient to substitute & nickel coinage for the present copper one; and Mr. Davies of an enquiry as to the freight charged on the I. C. R. for the car- riage of coal from Stellarton to Londonderry mines; also, the rate on pig iron from Lon- donderry westward.

Hon. Mr. Laurier has promised to pay 4 political visit to Manitoba aud the North- west in the spring.

The interest taken by the Quebec and Ontario members in the Nova Scotia coal deal is not the result of mere idle curiosity Ac- cording to reliable data, well up to 700,000 tons of coal from that province were shipped to Quebec points last year, and yet there are people who say that our inter-provincial trade is not growing.

Dalton McCarthy is expected to tuke a hand in the budget debate to-d»y or Wednesday.

Terrible Storms.

LOSS OF LIFE. Damage to Property.

Boston, Feb. 21.

Despatches from northern New England say that jthe storm of yesterday was the worst since the blizzard of 1888. Lonpon, Feb. 21.

A fishing boat wert down with nine oc” cupants yesterday in the storm off Hanff on the Scotch coast, Two fishing boats foun dered in the storm off Wick. Allof the nine- teen men in the boats were drowned. A terrific storm has swept the northeast coast of Scotland. Much wreckage has drifted ashore and reports of losses of life at var- icus points are received hourly.

Great Expectations for the Future.

Lonpon, Feb. 21.

Edward Biake’s speech in the House of Commons on Friday night was much ap- plauded in the House and in the press.

Leonard Courtney, a Unionist and De- puty Speaker of the House, who followed Mr. Blake, expressed the belief that Mr. Blake would in time reach a position im Great Britain equal to that ocevpied by him in Canada. The Canadian’s speech is expected to herald Mr. Blake's selection as the man tolead the Irish party. In this way itis hoped that the Parnellites and anti-Parnellites will be united.

We have bought the entire Stock of MESSES. PATTON BROS. consisting of General Dry Goods and Carpets.

Khe Pattons are hard workers, energetic and obliging, honest as the sun; but through the desire of the strong to crush the weak they have had to retire, not. however,’ before they were the means of revolution- izing the prices on several lines of goods, for which the public should ever be grateful to them.

They did not intend to close up so soon, but through the misfortune of Messrs. eo Carter & Co. by the late fire, they have sold out and rented the Store to them, in order that they may at once resume their Seed business, which is so important at this season of the year, thus showing their big-heartedness and kindly teeling towards the unfor- tunate.

The Stock is one of the largest ever thrown on the market, and must be sold, so everyone may be sure of getting bargains.

The Stock includes 30 pieces Black Cashmere and Merinos, 200 pieces Colored Dress Stuffs, 80 dozen Shirts and Underclothing, ‘arpets, Curtain Poles; House Furnishings of every description, Fancy Goods, Men’s Felt Hats, Fancy Ties, and a good assortment of all kinds of goods found in a first-class Dry Goods establishment.

We most respectfully’ request everybody to cal! and have a look threugh, No trouble to show goods, and if you do buy it won't cost much. One man’s misfortune is another man’s gain.

Mr. Charles Patton is now in our employ, where he will be happy to see all his old friends, and bring lyour friends with you | Remember, it is very seldom you can get such a chance to secure Dry Goods, Carpets, Clothing, etc. Khe goods are all fresh, as the boys have only been in basiness for about one year and a half. Come one and all to the Great Bargain Sale.
