Notes and Comments. —Chili is a peculiarily shaped country, being 2,590 miles in length, and only from 40 to 200 miles in width. A large per- centage of the couatry is mountainous and practically waste land. It is divided into s'xtsen provinces, embracing a total of 256.399 square miles. Its population in 1885 was only 2 524,476.

--®ince the election law againet brib- ery was made strict and given to the courts to entorce, sentence of disqualification has been pronounced against six meinbers of parliament found guilty of personal corrup- ‘ion. Five of these were Liberals. They were :

Mr Hughes, M P for Niagara.

Mr Walker, M P for London.

Mr Joduin, M P for Chambly.

Mr Cushing, M P for Argenteuil.

Mr Purcell, M P for Glengarry.

Mr German, M P for Welland.

Still the *‘Libarals,” with Mc. Mercier in the van, pose as they party of purity !

—The New York World draws a picture which is not likely to enamour Canadians of Ir gays :

“The prevalence of crime is at no time a pleasant topic to dwell on, but there are umes when the open snd unpunished de- fiance of law renders it a duty to call pub- lic attention to the situation. It is not pleasana to think that five notorious crim- inals convicted by the courts of this state are at large under stays granted by an ac- commodating judge; that dives fisurish un- checked in New York city; that tarring and feathering of a young girl is possibie withina few miles of this city, and that vur railroads laws aud building laws are in- sufficient to secure ordinary safety to human life The daily news reports of the papers are evidence thai we need not only many improvement in our punitive legisla- tion, but much more vigor and energy in enforcing the existing laws.”

—Sir George Baden Powell, who inspect- ed the transportation train which recen ly conveyed the marines from the Pacitic to the Atlantic, recognizes the enormous value of this means of conveying troops from one portion of the empire to another, and in a letter to the London Times he ways :—-

**Mr. Goachen's far-sighted action in

line of armed merchanimen, which can «ross to Ykohame in 11 days, now enables us to reinforce our China squadron within 22 days from England should need arise. The present troubled cutlook in China is alone sufficient to make us grateful that this pos- sibility has been opened oat to us betimes. The pioneer trooper train has proved it to be feasible to trausfer crews of ships on the Pacific station to Eng!wad within 15 days. Until this very week such transference necessitated a 50 days’ passage round Cpe Horn or via Suez. We may hereby save the material expenditure and waste of time of several waeks’ travel for every seaman and officers going toand from the Pacific. This accomplished faet proclaims eluquertly the enormous advantages we secure from the co-operation of our great Canadian Dominion in the defence of the Empire, and in our ability to support the United States in upholding the intereats of civili- ation in these remote parts of the world. We thus gain, together with a saving of expense, new and invaluable strategie ad- vartage.

Tempera ce.

An open lodge meeting, under the auspicss of the Templars of Keefer Lodge, L. vu. G. T., took place on New Year's night in the Hail at Lower Montague. The Hali wee filled by a very respectable, intelligent and appreciative audience, and the spirit that seemed to per- vade indicated that the cause of temperance has a large place in the hearts of the people, whieh augrusill for the nefarious liquor traffic. The aan of the evening were Meesrs. Annear, Martin and Creed, the latter deliver- ing an admirable address which cavnot but have a good and lasting effect on the minds of thoae present. The programme for the even- ing was carried out in « manner refiecting credit on those who took part in the proceed: ings. The programme was as follows ;

On motion of Herbert Martia, seconded by A. Young, a vote of thanks was tendered to the ©. T. and members of the Lodge, which met with a suitable response from Thomas Anvear. After singing God Save the Queen, the audience dispersed, well satisfied with the entertainment and stimulated to fight to more effect against the rum traffic.

Entertainment at Corawall.

' Quite a treat was in store for the large

number who attended the entertainment and basket social at UVornwall School on Tuesday, 29th ult. The large elass-room was tastefully decorated with evergreen, which, on s back ground of paler green, gave a very pleasing effect.

The entertainment, which was given by the members of the Temperance Division, assisted by some friends, began at 7 p. m., and consisted of a choice selection of read- ings, recitations, dialogues, etc., varied with vocal and instrumental music. As to the rendering of these selections it would not be fair to particularizs, as those who took part, though only amateurs, wel! de- served the hearty applause they received frofn an intelligent audienoe. After the musical and literary part of the programme wasended, Mr. Henry Howard mounted the auctioneer’s stand aud sold the baskets of good things the ladies had provided. For the time being the class-rooms were con- verted intv dining halla, where al] ebjoyed the contents of the baskets, except perhaps thore whose purse-strings were a little too tightly drawn.
