DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, Ottawa, Oct. 14, 1879.

| Regulations, dated the 9th duly last, gove ing the modé of disposing of the Public Lan situate within 110 (one hundred and ten) miles on each side of the line of the Canadian Paci- fic Railway, which said Regulations are here- by superseded :—

1. ‘* Until further and final survey of the said railway has been made west of the Red River, and for the purposes of these provinces, the line of the said railway shall be assumed to be on the fou:th base westerly to the inter- section of the said base by the line between ranges 21 and 22 west of the first principal meridian, and thence in a direct line to the

can't be found by surveyors. It was 2 smull section of the Pacific Ocean.

The epidemic of typhoid tever and measles, at Cape Clear, [re., continues to extend. One hundred cases were re- ported on Sunday, and deaths have been numerous. Many inbabitants have left.

Halifax papers announce the death ef Mr. George Buist, for many years manager of the Halifax Gas Works and avery active and energetic citizen of Halifax. Mr. Buist was by birth a Scotchman.

Levi T. Heilbron, twenty-three years old, shot Cora N. Shaw, seventeen years old, to whom he has been paying ad- dresses, in a store in Boston on Satur- day, wounding her in the head, and then shot himself twice. Neither wil! die. Jealousy.

The Rev. James Nugent, of Liver- pool, England, is visiting Minnesota to arrange for an immense exodus of Catholics from England and Ireland next spring. The Very Reverend Dr. Kelly aad the Reverend Father Murphy, also of Liverpool, are in Canada _pro- spectiay in the same interest. They, too, will visit the United States.

Oa Thursday, October 30th, Arch- bishop Bourget reached the age of eighty years, in perfect health. His Lordskip was bern at Point Levis on October 30th, 1799. Ordained in 1822, when twenty-three years of age, he was fifteen years later made Coadjutor Bis- hop of Montreai, and in 1840 appointed Bishop. He resigned the See in 1877, atter thirty-seven years of service in his diocese.—Montreal Star.

A notable case of maternal love was furnished at the Recorder’s Court on Monday. John Ryan, jr., arrested last week for stabbing his mother, was dis- charged on the request of the latter who stated that the stabbing was accidential. The affair was caused by drink, and whether it was accidental or not, the love of the mother was so construed it is equally commendable, A man who so narrowly escaped the gallows through liquor should surely never touch alcohol again. The lesson is ap- plicable to all drinking men.—Montre- al Witness.

= Doing Housework.

There is a continued and large de- mand for intelligent competent girls who can take a little of the responsibility and eare of housework upon themselves, and thus relieve our women of one of their greatest trials. Many of you would leok upen this work as beneath you, and some of you will read this with a feeling of scorn and yet this work is far easier, better, an pleasanter than many of the employments that you look upon, with your experience, as elegant, easy aud refined. With a month’s atudy and experience you could become good cooks or housekeepers, and you could take with you to your labor all the dignity, sweetness and graces of your wowanhood, and thus dignify the work you leok upon as beneath you.

if girls would go to waiting homes with kind hearts, sympathy, and a determina- tion to do their duties cheerfully and well, they would soon win the appreciation and respect of their mistress, and if in true goodness and nobleness of character they are her equals, they will be treated as such, and find themselves esteemed members of happy families. There are thousands cf women who would give intelligent, faithful

lowed to retain the same as a ilomestead, and

confluence of the Shell River with the River Assiniboine.
