THERE were More passengers yesterday in the “ Orwell Boat’--the new Heather Belle — than we have seen for many seasons. This, we presume, is partly due to the fact that the senth-eastern sections prefer driving to Brush Wharf and taking the boat to the city, re- turning at very cheap rates.

Taere is a curious diversity of taste among smokers as to the kind of pipe they prefer. Sonze like like the clay pipe best, others prefer the briar root, others again the meerachaum, some must have the pipe well seasoned before they can enjoy it, others again must have a new pipe and throw it away when it gets a little old. But though this diversiity of taste among them is curious it is not at all curious that there is substantial unanimity among them that the “‘Myrtle Navy” brand of Messrs. Tuckett & Son is the genuine article.

Ir is high time that something were done towards repairing the sidewalks on Queen Street. The sidewalk near Bruce’s is particularly dangerous to life and limb. A gentleman passing there this afternoon tripped over a projecting plank and narrowly escaped serious injury. There appears to be no earthly use calling the attention of either the Street Committee or City Surveyor to a matter of this kind. The hot weather is evidently too much for these gentlemen, ard we suggest the propriety of trying the watering cart as a reviver,

[Sexcrar Duspazcuns To THE Maxaman.) The Fishery Question.
Orrawa, June 27.
In the House of Commons, yesterday, Mr. L. H. Davies attacked the Government for their delay in giving attention to the fish- eries of Canada,
Hon. Peter Mitchell followed Mr. Davies. He was quite willing to leave the matter in the hands of the Government. These were delicate negotiations, Our neighbors across the border were sensative on the fishery question. He wanted no money compensation, and believed in Re ciprocal trade relations. He was quite
willing to give six months of our most valuable fisheries if goed results could be obtained. lf
nothing came out of the proposal then he hoped the Government would take means to protect our fisheries,
Sir John Macdonald said the final accept- ence of the proposed arrangement only took place on the 22nd of the present month. He pointed out that the Senate of the United States was Republican while the House of Representatives was Democratic, aud it required both Houses to give effect to the arrangement.
The discussion then dropped.

Arthur W. Greehan Dead. A GENTLEMAN WHOSE KINDLY ACTS MADE HIM HOSTS OF FRIENDS.
(Morning Journal, June 24.)
Arthur W, Greehan, of the business de- partment of the Morning Journal, died yesterday morning of Bright’s disease of the kidneys.
Mr. Greehan was born of Irish parents in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, thirty-three years ago, and was graduated from the normal school in his native town when littlo more than a boy. He became attached to the Charlottetown Herald asa reporter ard soon was raised to the city editorship.
Being of an energetic and ambitious na- ture he struck out for the United States, and secured employment on the (olden Rule, then edited by Adirondack Murray. He also reported for several of the Boston dailies, and then went out to the Black Hills, where he “‘ roughed it” during the gold excitement.
Returning to civilization he located at Buffalo and ‘ melted” all his money in rupning a weekly paper. He afterwards worked on the Albany papers. His next move was to Jersey City, where, after working as a clerk for the Standard Oil Company, he started the Eagle, which had a brief but warlike and successful career.
About three years agohe came to this city and after working on several papers he secured a responsible position in the Morning Journal office, becoming one of the most successful men in the business in which he embarked. Mr. Greehan wasa man of fair intelligence, manly, courteous, generous and popular, yet unassuming. He was an untiring worker, thoroughly con- scientious in all his dealings, and incapable of doing an injustice to any one,
He enjoyed the esteem and confidence of many of the most prominent business men in this city, with whom his position brought him into daily contact and who were pained at the news of his death.
He had a very large circle of friends in this and surrounding cities.
