The Government of (Quebec is taking steps to separate the idiots from the insane in the public asylums. The Montreal (razetie puts the case in thjs way: ‘** The two classes of patients are on separate and distinct footings. The idiots have nothing to hope for; their life is a blank. All that ran be given them is food and comfort Che ordinary Junatic, on the other hand, imay be relieved or even cured by skill and attention He requires more care, more watching and more intciligent treatment. Che two classes should never have been herded together. The Province is also ikely tu save money by the proposed ar- rangement, as it should not cost so much to provide for tho simple wants of the harmless unfortunate as tu care for those we should receive the best care of medical experts, in \ddition to maintenance.

"Suffering and Destitution. A TERRIBLE TALE BROUGHT FROM sOUTH DAKOTA BY A REVORTER,

A recent despatch says: A reporter, just | returned from the north, brings a tale of terrible suffering and destitution in nine- teen counties of South Dakota, gathered from eye-witnesses. The failure of four years’ crops has reduced those formerly well-to-do to the direst distress. Many thousands of families lack the means to purchase the necessaries of life. The con- dition of the people in Kingbury and Minor counties is heartrending. In the latter county they have no flour. They live on a scant supply of badly-ground cornmeal. Every farm is mortgaged heavily. Most of the stock has been sold by the sheriff et ridiculously low prices. The women and children have pinched and meagre faces, and in many instances are unprovided with proper clothing. The railroads have given out a little coal where it was most needed. Oreo

Personal. vev. Mr. Spurgeon is crippled with sciat- ica, and is unable to leave Mentone.

Ex-King Milan's pension is £16800 a year, of which the Emperor of Austria pays £4,800.

Edmund Yates says that the advance tixed by the Irish Land Purchase Bi:l wiil be limit- ed to £10,000, 000.

The King of Spain has got over his illness, but his constitutional weakness is 80 great that it is extremely unlikely that he will live to grow up.

Mr. D. Gordon, the Steam Navigation Company's agent at Summerside, was among the passengers in the Stanley from Pictou yes- t: day.

Rev. Father Lynch, of Harbor Grace, Nfid., preacheit Hign Mass in St. Dunstan’s Cath. edr.l ysterday The rev. gentleman is meet- ing wi'h much encouragement in his collecting tour throughout the provinces. He left to- day for the eastern part of the Island where he is meeting with very great success.

Mr. Thomas B_ Aldrich, who has just weathered an attack of the grip, compares the sensation that it produces to that of ‘‘a misfit sk. li that is too tight across the forehead and pinches behind the ears.”

The Duke of Verague, the new Spanish minister of commerce, is a direct descendant of Christopher Columbus.

General Sir Donald Martin Stewart, GC. B., is to be appointed field marshal in place of the late Lord Napier, of Magdela.

The Duke of Argy!l, on behalf of the Scottish Geographical Society, has sent con- gratulations to Stanley. Word has been re- ceived from Stanley of his intention to visit the German Emperor in March.

The Sultan of Jurkey has ordered a reduc- tion of ali state s#liries and in bis own house- hold expenses. The Turkish budget shows a deficit of £4.000,000.

Adam Foerepaugh, the well known circus manager, died at Philadelphia, last week, aged 68 years. He was attacked a week or two ago with the prevailing intluenza. Next to Barnum Mr, Forepaugh was the largest show- man in America.
