An invitation having been extended to P. E. I. and Nova Seotia, by the New Brunswick Union, with a view of enlarging the field of action, the local Union in @harlottetown dciogated the secretary. Nova Scotia responded by sending. two delegates from Halifax. In consequence the Provincial Union of New Brunswick has submérged intoa Union of the Maritime Provinces; by exerting a much wider degree of influence. It is hoped that the ten ce women of the Provinces will band themeelves together, under the above initials, and press forward in line of action with our sisters acroes the border, who are achieving glorious victories. We are anti- a very shortly a visit from Miss

iliard the President of United States Women’s Christian Temperance Union, whe we have no donbt will work her way into the hearts of those to whom she may appeai and stir up our women tv take their true position on the side of total ab- stinence; then, having taken that position themselves, give their husbands and sens no peace until they do likewise. Two resolutions were submitted and carried at ‘the convention. let. That whereas the drinking usages of society largely tend to increase the amount of in- toxication, it is most earnestly requested by the members of convention, now being held in Fredericton, that women refrain from in- troducing anything in the form of spirits and wine at calls, partics, and entertsin- ments, The 2nd resolution is addressed ta the Medical Beard, soliciting otr doctor's prescribing stimulants so largely to fall in with later treatment of the question, which oes to prove that other treatment can safe- y be adopted.

The Export Cattle Trade.

THE ALLEGED FEVER AMONG GANADIAN CATTLE IN LIVERPOOL— IMPORTANT RESULSS OF SIR CHARLES TUPPER § PROMPT ACTION,

“The Minister of Agriculture has received an im t communication from Sir

Charles r, High Commissiover for |Canada in } , Telative to the resent attempt to slaughter two cargoes of Cana- \dian cattle at Liverpool, a disaster which,

if pot prevented, would have had the effect placing C ,on the scheduled list in United. Kingdom and have struck a serious blow at the cattle trade from Cana- da, which has now risen to such large pro- portions. The facts are these: Mr. Dyke, the agent in Liverpool of the pt of § Agriculty informed Sir Charles Tupper that she cattle which arrived in the S. S.,‘‘Oregon” had been stopped by Mr. Moore, the inspector of the Privy Council. Sir Charles immediately saw Mr. Peel, Secretary of the Council, on Monday, and was informed by him that these cattle were infected with Texan fever, and that Pro

fessor Duguid, who had been epecially sent down by the Imperial Department, had repor to that effect. Sir Charles then obtained a letter from Mr. Peel instructing Professor Duguid to place all possible information on the subject in the possession of Sir Charles, and give him every oppor- tunity of investigating the matter. On proceeding to Liverpool, Sir Charles found that the decision arrived at by the Govern- ment officials would necessitate the imme- diate slaughter of all the Candian cattle which had arriven by the steamships *“‘Oregon,” ‘Lake Nepigon” ard ‘‘Anjer- Head, <I] these cattle having been placed by the inspector in the same category, and of which the result would have been the placing of Canada on the scheduled list. The rties interested in the trade had ob- ined the presence of Professor Williams, the President of the Veterinary College at Edinburgh; Mr. W. R. Reynolds, the veterinary surgeon of the Liverpool Cor- poration; Mr. W. Bains, veterinary sur- geon, Liverpool; Mr, J. Lewis, veterinary surgeon, of Crewe; Mr. Joseph Wellsby, V.8., Liverpool, and Mr. Weels, V. 8. After Sir Charles Tupper had delivered his letter to Professor Duguid, this gentleman proceeded with him to the Canadian cattle lairage, where they met the owner and Mr. Montgomery, of the Deminion Steamship mpany, and other parties interested in the cattle trade. Mr. Montgomery de- manded that si= of the cases, which the local inspector conceived to be the worst, sheuld be selected for slaughter and ex- amined, This demand was at first met by a prompt refusal, onthe ground that the matter had been already decided. Sir Charles here made himself known, and in- sisted, under the authorization he had re- ceived from the Privy Council, that this re- quest should be complied with. The selec- tion was then made, the animals slaughter- ed and acareful post mortem examination made, the result of which showed that the local inspector and Professor Duguid had made a very serious mistake in the matter, the animals aot being infected either with Texan or splenetic fever. Mr. Morne and Professor Duguid acknowledged their mistake, but stated that they were unable to release the the embargo that had been placed upon them in consequences of their previous communication to the Privy Council, but that they would report promptly to the Sec- retary the result of the inspection, Sir Charles immediately afterwards returned to London, arriving at midnight, and on the morning of the 29th he had an interview with Mr. Peel at the Privy Council office, who, after a full discussion of the whole question, stated that he was exceedingly giad that Sir Charles had been able to get to Liverpool, and that an order would be immediately given for the prom,t release of all the Canadian cattle.

A‘ the conclusion. of these proceedings the steamship companies wrote forraal letters of thanks tu Sir Charles Tupper for the

lwere killed

cattle from)

important services he had rendered to the Canadian cattle trade, The thanks of all Canada sre also due to him for his prompt and energetic action in a matter se impor- tent to a large portion both cf the agricul- tural and mercantile community of the Dominion.

Charley Ross’ Abduction.

DISCOVERY OF TWO IMPO"TANT LETTERS FROM THE THIEVES. —SOME STARTLING INFORMa- TION,

Everybody has heard of the abduction of Charley Ross some years ago. All hopes of discoveriug his whereabouts have long since been abandoned by his heart-broken parents. The matter lias once more been brought before public notice, by the FINDING OF TWO LETTERS,

in the effects of the late chief detective of Philadelphia, dated November 22 and 24, 1874, which throw additional light on the case. Too much time, say the abductcrs,

has been already wasted, and a day must be decided u the matter must be settled. ‘*We they say, “have

$20,000 or you | WILL NEVER SEE YOUR BOY,

It seems to us you think more of mone than you do of your child, or you

have settled this business long ago. Yoa can look at you $20,000 a thousand timee, but it will not bring your child. We ere not murderers yet, God forbid ; but unless you meet us in New York ca the 24th of November this business will be over for ever.” The writer then refers to Ross’ ad- vertisement, declaring that the exchange of mouey for the boy must be simultaneous, and added ‘‘that can never be.” “They

perforin what they say.” He ; there are four concerned in

although detectives never got ava o

other than Mosher’ and Do while rob uke of Jadge Van Brunt on 8 Island; on December 14, 1874. The letter continues, ‘Two of us kidpapped the boy, and two have had him in their posaession ever since. Your ¢20,000 would only be $5,000 a piece. That is nothing to what we expect to make out of the scheme in hand. If we had knowa your financial condition we would not have taken your bey. Now that we have him we must have a ransom, So on November 24th, we

boy is in charge of our two confederates. If the matter is settled satisfactorily we can gend by wire all is right, and he is de‘iveted all rightto you. Ifwe send ‘all wromg,’ then no power on earth can restore Lim to you alive. This matter then muat be settled by November 24, at 1 oon, or never. lf you want your child alive keep true faith and meet us at New York.” The abductors mailed a duplicate of their last letter, fear- ing it might misearry, Nothing was: ever heard from them after thie. Altogether six levters were received from the thieves. They were allin a disguised hand, but evi- dently written by the same person.
