THERE were two Concerts in town last night. Mr. Earle’s benefit concert anda concert under the auspices of the Reform Club. We are compelled, from want af space, to haid notices of both over till to-

morrow.

A mestine of the liquor dealers of this city was held in the hal of the “Commercial House” last evening. The resolutions passed were ordered to be kept private. We suppose they are to the effect that the new license law will be tested before the Supreme Courts of

the Dominion.

Tur report of the untimely death of a young man named Alexander Carroll, for- merly of this city, was received here last night by his friends. The deceased was a carpenter, and while at work on a house in Boston, he fell from a considerable height, and received severe injures, from the effects of which he died.

The Toronto Mail says: If the Government would only send the resurrected Mr, Brown to represent us at the Baden Baden Congress, Mr. James Young's chances of ‘*‘just dropping in —to the Cabinet would be much improved. The dictator’s reappearance has probably thrown the hon. member for North York alto- gether out of the running for the Cabinet va- cancy. But then there’s the Auditorship.

After all, we were wrong. The Patriot isa morning paper. The forms are locked up immediately before going to press, and they go to press as the clock is ony the last stroke of twelve (St. Dunstan’s athedral time) Immediately after the press work is completed—say 12.15—the ‘‘ forms” (of the staff) are ‘‘ locked” in sleep, until it is time to send around the paper.

Suppen Deata oF aN JstanpER.—Mr. Simon Cavanagh, of Lot 30 in this Island, was killed by falling into a pit at Lexington, Mass., on the 24th of February. The de- ceased was employed on the farm of Ham mond Read, of the above named place ; and, while attending to his work near the pit, accidentally fell in, breaking his neck, and causing instant death. The deceased was 30 years old. To his friends in Lot 30 and this city we tender our sympathy.

Tas New Generat.-—The dispatches vague ly announce that General McDougall will take command of the forces in Canada next May. This is probably Major General Patrick Leon ard McDougail, who now holds the position of Deputy Quarter Master General, Intelligence Department, at Horse Guards. The dispatch odds that General McDougall will be autho-- ized to raise 10,000 Canadians for service in Europe, in case of war. Here’s a chance for many to serve their country, and earn the bub- ble reputation.

iron and hardware trade in England is a ‘ae depressed condition. A Cheshire manufacturer writes:—‘‘A well-known Leeds ironfonder, wishing to erect an enormous iron shed, absolutely let the whole job to a Belgian firm. Again, we see that the great patriot Mundella, the colleague of Mr. Bright, re moved his enormous iron business to that favored place, and hence, if we look “aie the

in almost any ironmongers 8 in Sesiend, we shall find three-fourths of the stock is foreign make, though in many cases bearing English brands.”

Affairs in Queensland, Australia.

The state of Queensland is described as something frightful, and unless (writes a correspondent) we get rain there will be far worse famine than the Indian in Queens- land. In the country districts they have to carry water ten or fifteen miles, all the grass is burnt up, and riding out twenty miles last week there were cattle dead from star- vation all along the route. The hide is the only part of the cattle worth anything, and now they are reduced in price to next to nothing, from Sid. per Ib. to a Id. ; and people don’t feel inclined to buy at that. Then the kangaroos and wallaby are so nu- merous that if there is any green feed they devour it all before them, and the cattle have no chance left. Some, in fact nearly all, the farmers have lost hundreds of cat- tle, while a larger proportion have not a single head of cattle left, and are thus left destitute, with no money to pay their rents, und nothing to depend on except a dried up crop. Yet they keep deluging the place with immigrants. Only the opening up of Government railways and other works will prevent the greatest disaster. It is the gen- eral talk of the whole colony, and nothing else is thought of but rain, rain, rain. It has been prayed for for months, but only slight thunder showers have yet come to re- lieve us. Not only are the farmers affected by this drought, but it throws a shadow

Advices from Rio Janerio reports that yellow fever prevails there.

The number of deaths from the disease in the city were from 40 to 50 in the first fortnight in February.

Orrawa, March 6.

Mr. Plumb spoke till recess. He said the financial views of McDonald, of Toronto, were Empirical ; the causes of depression lay deeper than over importa- tion. The Opposition did not seek to gain by the spectre of hard times. The Party making politieal capital out of the depres- sion was unworthy of confidence. He was astonished at the slur cast by Mr. McDon- ald of Toronto, in saying that manufacturers would need no protection if they had more intelligence, capital and character. That gentleman’s business as an extensive im- porter explained his views. Mr. Plumb disclaimed advocating a pro- tective system like that of the United States He reviewed the expenditures of the late Government, claiming they were justified by the financial position of Canada. He animadverted on Cartwright’s calculations, and deplored the failure to provide for meet- ing the deficit. Mr. Plumb declined Mr. Dymond’s proposal to talk right through the dinner recess, and resumed at eight, speak- ing till ten—four hours and a halt in all. Mr. Bertram said he was disappointed, after listening to so long a speech, to hear no policy enunciated. The freight on goods was less from Liverpool than from New England ; our protection being therefore greater against the United States than Eng- land. It was only the last two years the Conservatives had raised the Protection cry. We had been fairly successful in de- veloping our resources ; had expanded ter- ritory ; had contributed great public works, and were we to repudiate a poiicy under which this had been done, and try another ? He asked the Conservatives to pause before trying further to launch the country into an experimental Protective policy.
