Orrawa, March, 29.—The estimates were laid on the tab'e at midnight.

They call for an expenditure in the fiscal year 1898—99 of $39,!25,889, on account consolidated fund, against 4 total] vote on this account for current year of $158,000 jess. This decrease is, of course, only apparentas the supplementary estimates will bring up the figures far beyond those of the carrect year. The capital expendi- ture calls for $5,786,691. But this is no guide as roany of there estimates are al- ways supplemented. The estimate for interest charge shows @ reduction of $251, 000, of which $225,500, or nearly the whole ie effected by another, eut in the Savings bank interest from 3 per cent to 24. The cost ot civil government is about the same as last year. The Administra- tion of Justice is increased by the salary of additional judges in Ontario and Quebec.

The estimated eust of operating the In- tercolovial is placed at $3,650,006 or $550,000 more than last year’s appropria- tion.

The eum of $15,000 is asked to straight- en the P. E. Island railway.

The total sum to be expended on yotes for harbors and piers in P. E, Island are for general repairs to piers and break- waters $6000 ; for Souris, strengthenivg of breakwater, $15,000 ; New London repairs, $750; West Point wharf, $7,400; Tignish, repairs to breakwater andextension $7009. Belfast, approaches to pier, $500; Brae breakwater, $1000; for the pnrchase of creosoted piles for genera! repairs to wharves, piers acd breakwaters, $2006; Red Point wharf, repaire, $1000 ; total $40,650.

In New York the effeet was similar and a very considerable recovery went along way to wipe out the losses incurred during the progress of the invesiigation.

Wasninaton, March 29.—The preuailing } tone, as secured from administration sources has been more reassuring in line of peace than for some days.

The geveral tone of the Spanish acawer impressed President and Cabinet most favorably, so inuch so tat it is stated that the outlook was far more reassuriog aud that Spaiu bad shown such a conciliatory tone that it was believed ehe won!ld make coucessions sufficient to permit an amica- ble aujusiment of present strained rela- tions.

This was qualified by a statement that the danger point has not yet been passed, aod that a war while not longer » probabi-~ lity was yet a possibility.

Britain is to follow suit, obtaining equal aivantages with other powers and secur- ing adequate compensation in her | our interests, This exp'aims the British naval activity at Hong Kong and elses where. Therefore a movement upon the part of Great Britain may be anticipated in the near future.

It is deemed improbable that Japan, single handed or, still lees, in conjunction with China, will combat the policy of the European powers. She will probably rest content with a compromise satisfactory to ber pride and securing the position Jue her as the fruit ef her victory over China.

Sepastorot, March 27 —Asa result of the discovery of serious and whol2sale bribery and corruption, ove hundred dock~ yard officials and officers of the Russian Black Sea _ fieet have been arrested. Admiral Kopvloff, commander of the fleet has been dismissed Five officers have committed suicide siuce their arrest.

Mule Will Kick, but Never Runs Over.

Touching the protest we occasionally hear against the dangerous practice of driving loose mules through the streets, it may be well to assure the timorous that there is no possible danger of a mule run- ning over achild. You may set a baby in the middle of Marietta street and drive a thousand mules at a wild gallop through it and not one would hurt the baby. It is well enough to give a mule’s heels a wide berth, but no one ever heard of a child or man being run over by one. You could not drive a@ mule over a child.—Atlanta Commercial,

Ethel—Mamma, I just ¢an’t consent to be the wife of Mr. Newrocks. That dinner he invited me to yesterday settled it.

Mrs. Oldbam—Why, my child, what did he do—eat with his knife?

Ethel—Oh, I could stand that. He used a corner of the tablecloth for a napkin.— Chicago Journal.

The finest shaving brushes are manu- factured from badgers’ hair, and ‘*‘camel’s hair’’ brushes are turned out in great quantities from squirrels’ tails and from the hair that grows inside the ears of oxen.

When the steamship Great Western made the run from Bristol, England, to New York from April 8 to 25, 1838, it was be- lieved the problem of transatlantic steam- ship travel was solved.
