They escribe it as about sixty feet in lenght, with a black body aud moving somewhat similarly to a porpoise. There seems to be no doubt now, in the minds of many, that some such vast creature really exists in the lakes of this country.

Notes and Clippings.

— Kingston News : been able to discover even from universal history, that optimism is not a more logigf belief than pessimism, It this be true of universal history, which, viewed too narrow- ly, appears to displaya retrograde tendency, itis more than certain that pessimism is utterly illogical in Canada’scase. Canada's future will be the product of the same fac- tors ..at went to produce her present prosperous condition, viz.: the energy of

her sons, her natural wealth and her wise administrs*ion. The only important differ ence bet;....1 the future and the present

is that the future will be the present mag-

nified in every detail of its prosperity.

— New York Zribune: Sir John Mac- donald continues to be the sprightly old

man and astute politician that for so many years have made him the idol of the Tory or Conservative party and the terror of the Grits or Reformers. The other day a

dinner was given at Sherbrooke, Quebec,

to Mr. Pope, who is a member of the Do-

minion Cabinet, and Sir John was one of the guests. In response to calls upon him

he made one of those clever speeches for which he is famous, in which he sounded

the praise of his colleague and of his own

policy so deftly that even his enemies could not take offence. On very few previous occasions has he appeared more at home or

made a more skillful speech. Mr. Chapleau

is recognized as the orator of the Dominion

Cabinet, yet neither he nor any other of

its members can get so near to the hearts of the people as Sir John.

—Boycotting is a punishable offence in

Canada. That is the meaning ofthe judg-

ment of Queen’s Bench division of the

High Court of Ontario, given in the case of Regina vs. Gibson, an appeal from a con- viction of the Wentworth sessions. The three defendants were members of a brick- layers’ union, which passed a resolution forbidding its members from working at the new city hall, then being built at Ham- ilton, while Buscombe was employed by the city authorities. The jury found the defendants guilty of conspiracy, and the highest appellate court in the province has confirmed the jury’s finding, Chief Justice Allen holding that *‘ what the defendants and the other members of this union pres- ent at the meeting conspired to do was not within any of the purposes of their combi- nation permitted by law, nor was it even within the purposes of their constitution and rules.”

—It appears {that Lord Lansdowne will associate with the vice-regal offjce the ad- ministration of the foreign portfolio of India, and the hope is expressed that, in directing negotiations with the neighbor- ing states, he will show a firmer hand than his immediate predecessor. This criticism and suggestion were called forth in refer- ence to the Ampa or representative of China in Sikkim, when Lord Dg ferin’s ex- cessive tendency towards conciliation had rendered—after the fashion of half-civi- lized rulers or functionaries—more arro- gant than before. He had also, it is alleg- ed, been playing a double game; for, while pretending that the Thibetan authorities were obstinately opposed to the arrange- ment proposed by the Indian Government, he hac himself been suggesting objections and counter offers of an insulting kind. It is expected that Lord Landsdowne, deal- ing directly with the Pekin authorities, will be successful in bringing about a sat- isfactory settlement.

Odds and Ends.

Amidst all disorders, God is ordering all wisely and justly, and to them who love Him, graciously; therefore we ought not to be dismayed. ‘

If thy conscience blame, though ever so little, despise it not, nor neglect the secret check; ’tis a messenger from Heaven sent to summon thee to thy duty.

Leopold, King of the Belgians, has never signed a death warrant, and, although the statute has never been repealed, capital punishment is practically abolished in Bel- gium.

Natural gas has been struck at Kings- ville, Ont., and the story that the well yields eight million feet a day reads as if it had absorbed a good amount of the actual outflow.

The mind is heaven-born, and comes im- mediately out of the hands of God; so that to speak properly, we are more; nearly re- lated to the Supreme Being than to father and mother.

Our duties are like the circles of a whirl- pool, and the innermost circle is home. The road tu home happiness is over the step- ping-stones which lie above the brook of daily discomforts.

So far the New York capitol building at Albany has cost $1 8,000,000 and is not yet

finished. The original estimate was §7,- 000,000. The New Yorkers are beginning

to suspect something.

Nest is for Heaven, toil is for earth. We often speak of being **settled in life,” we might as well think of casting an anchoz in the midst of the Atlantic Ocean, or talk of the permanent position of a stone in rolling down hill.

A Rome despatch says there is talk of 8 betrothal of Prince Emanuel, eldest son of the Duke of Aosta and nephew of King Humbert, to Archduchess Margaret, daughter of Archduke Charles Louis Austria.

Human reason can no more reveal what is divine, than the rays of a candle can re- veala star. Darkness is God’s medium through which we must see the star, and

'we must accept His way to find truth, eveen

though it seems as darkness.

The thistle at the antipodes seems to Its root penetrates to s depth of from twelve to twenty feet, and this root, even when cut into small pieces, retains vitality, each piece producing a new plant,
