yesterday tells a j;ood story about the picnic. Mr. Laurier was in the midst of his address and was sayingthat ‘‘Mr. Blake’s Adminis- tration, when formed, would be just as strong as the platform upon which we are standing.” As the last word rolled out of his mouth,down went the platform. The moral is too obvious for comment.— Hc. Herald. Ae = eee

Tue tank at the head of Queen street, which collapsed last fall, has been rebuilt by Measrs. McGuirk an Connors, under the in- spection of A. N, Large, Esq., Chief Engineer of the Fsre Department. It was filled with water. by Rollo hingine, last evening, and the fact that the water up to the present has not lowered the eighth part of an inch, proves that the tak is water tight, and is, therefore, a creditable job to all concerned.
Tre brigt. ‘ Lionel,” McLean, master, owned by Messrs. Peake Bros. & Co., on passage from Plymouth to this port with a cargo of limestone, yesterday morning, struck Heron Rock, off Arichat, while sailing in a thick fog.

THe nomination for Argenteuil took place on the 9h at Lachute. Hon. Mr. Abbot, lately unseated, and Dr. Christie (Grit) were dominated. Up to the present time little interest has been taken in the election. It was not until the last moment that the Grits decided to put a candidate in the field. Some time ago Dr. Christie positively declined to face the music. Now that a contest is to take place matters will become livelier, and it is probable that some outside oratorical talent will be imported. The election wil! take place on Thursday of next week.
A $55,000 Haci.—New York, Aug. 8.— Forty thousand dollars worth of securities were missed froin the safe of J. OC. Wol- cott & Co., of Broad Street. They were stolen on Friday by a young clerk, A. D. Wheelock, who was left alone to close up the business of the d»y. Me also tilled out three cheques already signed by the firm, drew $5,000 on one from the Continental Bank, and obtained on others letters of credit to the amount of $10,000 on foreign bankers. The letters are negotiable in any part of the world where first-class banking houses exist. A de- ecription of the stolen securities has been tele- graphed throughout the country. Wolcott & Co. are brokers.
Sate or A Spuspy Youre Trerrer.—The sale of the trotting mare Fanny Witherspoon to W. R, Armstrong, of Almout, Mich., for $10,000, is ann¢ Fanny Witherspoon is a chestnut mare with a light stripe in her face and white t. the ankle on her left hind
inced
leg, and staniss xtee: aud a quarter hands high. She was red by Horace Witherspoon, of lawre ceburg. Ky.. and was foaled in 1874, hér sire being Almont and her dam Lizzie Withers;oon, by the thoronghbred horse Gough W gner, by old Wagner. Al- though a big mare, weizhing about 1,00 pounds in coudition, itis a remarkable fact that she carries less wei-ht than any other trotter of note in America, her foreshoes
weighing but nine ounces each, and her hind ones seven. Her record is 2.193, made at Buffalo on Friday last. In the heat in which she acquired it sie was privately timed from the half-mile pole to the wire in 1.07}.

He refuses point blank te make any state- ment, and the other trustees join in his refusal. The charges are that the conduct of the trustees has been most scandalous, and that they have appropriated money to improper uses. The fund alleged to have been squandered is composed of $200,000 collected by the Clan na Gaels and $92,000 skirmishing fund.
