The Markets.
Sir,—Fish market for the past week has been fairly aciive, still prices in all lines are rather heavy.
In mackerel our shore fleet are still giving us heavy stock of small sized fish, and sales of. fares have been made as low as $2.75 to $8; dealers are full on this jine of goods; large mackerel are wanted at $7 to $10. Several fares have been landed from the Bay and sold at $9 to $10.
Receipts'from Nova Scotia are not large; still, as quality and size is no better than that’ of our shore fish, they are not sought for by our dealers and would sel] at $3.50 for small and $7 to $7.25 for large.
Island mackerel received last week were sold at $12 for unculled fish, and we hope to see the same figures for this week’s stock. The boat was behind time aad we have no sales to report from her.
In dry. fish, the stocks at all points on our shores (held in butts) are very heavy, and it looks like a low range of prices all through the season ; prices are now weak and buyers are not at all anxious for stock ; would quote large pickle cured codfish, $375 te $4; mediums, $3 per atl.; large dry shore (kench cured) $4 25; large dry Bank, $3.50; mediums, $3; large pickle Bank, $3.25; mediums, $2.75; hake, $2 25; haddock, $2: cask, $2.26; cod oil, J8 to 40 cents; herring oil, 25 t0 30 cents. Have not had as large receipts of barreled Herring, still prices are heavy; laage Nova Scotia Shore splits, $450, round, $2 09, gibbed, 2.25, Bay Shore gibbed, $2.24, Bay Shore splits, $2 25, Bay of Islands splits, $2.25, Alewives, $3. 25 to $5. 50, Salmon is dulier than we haveever known it to be,and it is hard to move them, sales have been at $12.00 to $14 per bri.
Eggs dull, and 18} cents per doz. is the best to-day for Isiand and Nova Scotia stock. Canned lobsters 1 lb. cans, $1.60 per doz., blueberries 14 lb. cans, $1.30 to $1.40 ger doz., all labetied goods.
Yours truly,

Montreat, Sept. 2:—Betore 11 a m., the hour of meeting, the Montreal Gymna- sium, where the geographical section meets, was densely crowded, on the strength of the announcement that Lieut. Greely would take part im a discus- sion on Lieut. Ray’s paper on ‘Arctic Experiences at Point Barrow.” Greely read a discourse on the recent discoveries in Northern Greeuland,, being an account of his own explorations. He spoke clearly and looked very well, but showed the riervousness of weakness now and then. He! was complimented elabo- rately by Lord Rayleigh, Sir H. Lefroy, Sir Erasmus Ommanney, Capt. Bedford Pim and other great men of the association. The list of papers in every section was to-day much lengthenee, hard work being necessary to avoid an extensive ‘‘slaughter of innecents.’’ The popular section F, economic science and statistics, filled up rapidly with Canadians after Lieut. Greely had been heard, a paper by E. Wraggie and Alex. McDougall, civil engineers, on transport by jand and water, bore particu- larly on Canadian routes, the authors maintaining that railways have the advan- tage of canals, a position warmly assailed and captured by their opponents in the disenssion, Secretary Foxwell then read a profound paper on land laws, by the erhi- nent Belgian economist, Emile de Lavaley, tafter which Miss Rye, Mrs. Burt and Mrs.
| Joyce discoursed on female emigration,
with particular reference to Canada. In tnis section it was a ladies day, the women holding their ground firmly during the reading and discussion on T. 6. Sprague’s paper on ‘‘The probability that a marriage entered into at any age wall be fruitfui, and that a marriage childless for several years will subsequently become fruitful.’ —————— ope oom
A Mysterious Gold Mine.
GUARDED BY MIC-MAC SUPERSTITIONS.
The Aspy Bay correspondent of the Bad- deck Island Reporter tells the following curious story about a gold mine:
There are many reports going the rounds about a valuable gold mine somewhere in the mountains between Aspy Bay and Cheti- camp. It issupposed that the place is under some fascination or superstition, and that no one know or can find it but the Indians Very few Indians are living to-day that knows where it is. At Sydney afew days ago, an old squaw was consulted about it, but she said, “If me tell me die. My poor husband go show it to whites, an he die: Ingonish; me never tell.” There is another old Indian at Whycacomagh, who was often at the spot, but he says, ‘‘Me wai um Short Line take me there; me no walkum, and me no tell,” Whatever is their view in keeping this a secret, we can’t compres hend, but they are bound unto death not to tell, and they make out that if any of their tribe shuuld go and attempt to show it, it is certain death for that person. It seems to beathing unknown, wrapped up in a mystery. At one time two squaws came out of tho wood at Cheticamp and stayed for dinner at the Priest’s house. On leaving they gave him a few stones, which they supposed would pay for the dinner. e, suspecting somethirg, made enquiries as to where they got tiem, and offered to go back with them to the spot. They refused either to go or to tell where it was found, but in pressing them closer, they said it would be found on the Island on the fork of land where two brooks are joining, but on any consideration they would not go. After these stones were assayed their value was twenty-pounds. Mr. Joseph Guinn, of this place says he remen bers well, al:hough a lad at the time, when ¢.¢ Indians used to come 8 § s8 from Chetic.m
i “Bg ad oa 8
‘camps frequently, and on several occasions ‘saw them break up stones and throw them in the fire until something yellow would ‘melt into a mass in the ashes, and then ithey would teke up this stuff, cut it and pbrake it with hammers into rings, and when polished it would shine as bright as any gold. How to solve this mystery is pene great question that is trout ling the excited speculators of to-dsy; but if they wait for the Hogomagh Indian and the |Short Line, undombtedly the long unknown secret will be revealed,

Maud 8S. and Her New Owner.
(From the Turf, Field and Farm.)
The sale of Maud 8, is still the talk of the town and country. Mr. Bonner highly appreciates the compliment paid to him by Mr. Vanderbilt, and he does not intend to place the Queen in absolute retirement She will never again start for purse, stake, or wager, but she will trot in public. Bair arrived in the city Saturday, and on Mon day he and Mr. Bonner came tw an under standing, and Wednesday morning Maud 8. and her old trainer and groom journeyed by special car to Hartford. The prepara ion of the mare was interrupted after the 2.09% at Cleveland, but she is in good heart, and Bair hopes to have her keyed up fora fast mile in about three weeks. He is very confident of still further reduc- ing the record. In fact, he counts upon driving the queem in 2.08. Mr. Bonner will practice patience, and if the weather does not prove exceptionally bad, the public will have an opportunity before the evd of October to see Mand §. sent for all that is in her. Jay-Eye-Sée will not be permitted to wear the crown if she can pre- vent it. The deeision of Mr. Bonner wiih regard to trotting Maud S. has given the widest satisfaction. Thousands believe that the full powers of the great mare have never been developed, and it gratifies them to know that sheis to be given another chance on the course. Associations will eagerly compete for her, but as money is no temptation to her owner, as he will a) the bills and ask for no returns, it is not probable that we shall see her on avy but really good tracks, -If Charter Oak does
net.suit her she will be taken to Provi-
dence. and tried on Narragansett. But Bair thinks that the Hartford track will will suit. Russella, the four-year-old sister of Mand 8,, will also be trained by Bair, and Mr. Bonner has confidence that she will prove worthy of her breeding. She has shown, with very little handling, some fast quarters atthe farm. Both Bair and gvaut state that Maud S. stands firmer on her legs than she did three weeks ayo A little foot balancing hes much improved her in this respect. Maud 8S. was deeply grounded in the afféctions of Mr. Vanderbilt. The follow- ing letter,Swhich is published with his con sent, reflects great credit on him :-- [A correct. copy. } Unrren States Borer, Aug. 20, 1884. Robert Bonner, £sq.: Dear Sim,—Inelosed please tind receipt for Maud 5. I must congratulate you upon being the owner of the fastest and fm st horse in the world. Tam sure you will find her simply perfection itselfiin every particular; She is always ready to do anything you want to have ber, always «Xpecting fina treatment, and the fullest contidence that she is not to be hurt. *he seems to know as much as a man, and is of the most aflectionate disposi- tion.’ These are great requisites. Neo one can but admire them, and we must all love the anima) possessing them. That Maud 8. will please you. please her self, and every ove cownected w iti her, is the carnest wish of Yours very truly, Wo. H. Varprrstcs. —— - -4d- Emerson’s Americanism.
Emerson's Americanism, therefore, was Americanism in its last and purest analysis, which is giving him high praise, and to America great hope. But I do not mean to pay him, who was so full of modesty and humility, the ungrateful compliment of holding him ap as the permanent American ideal. It is his tendencies, his quality, that are valuable, and only in a minor, in- cipient’ degree his actual resulte, Ail human resu'ts must be strictly limited, and according to the epoch and outlook Emerson does not solve for all time the problem of the universe ; he solves nothing; but he does whatis far more use- ful—he gives a direction and an impetus to lofty human endeavor. He does not anticipate the lessons and the discipline of the ages, but he shows us how to deal with circumstances in aych a manner as to secure the good irstead of the evil influ- ence. New conditions, fresh discoveries, unexpected horizons opening before us, will, no doubt, soon carry,us beyond the scope of Emerson’s surmise ; but we sholl not #0 easily improve upon his sim and attitude. In the spaces beyond the stars there may be marvels sach as it has not entered into the minds of men to conceive ; but there, as here, the right way to look will still be upward, and the right aspira tion be still toward humbleness and charity. —Julian Hawthorne, in the Manhattan.
