Protestant principles were so strong, but it was a new society and he wanted to be at the head of it. Indeed, when I made his acquaintance, he was a member of the
| surpliced choir of St. Alban’s Church and | was very enthusiastic on the subject. I
think it was Heber Haslam whom he in- duced to accom pany him one night to St. Alban’s, where the cantata of the “ Passion” was being sung during Lent, at which he assisted most devoutly. Aitogether, the case is a most mysterious one, and it will be hard for Hooper to explain the pur- chase of the poisons and the falsehoods he told to procure them:—the notices of his wife’s death, yublished twice before she died, and representing the occurrence to have taken place in two different vears

Lady Thempson and her daughter hav- ing returned from England, Sir John and they may be expected io settle down again to domestic life. I was much amused at reading a very silly paragraph, copied into the Patriot, about “strained relations” be- tween Sir John Thompson and Sir Charles Tupper. It went on to say that “the Ministers were not invited to the High Commissioner’s house in London, and when Sir Charles was in Ottawa it is al- leged that he went near none of the Minis- ters, but kept himself to himself and his friends at the Rus-ell House.” The Min- isters who were in London last summer were Sir John Thompson, Sir Adolphe Caron and Sir Charles Hibbert Tupper. No one hints at any estrangement between father and son. Ido net know whether Sir Adolphe was at the High Commis- sioner’s or not, but the I do know that Sir John Thompson was not in London, during the whole time he was away, for more than two hours. He sailed direct from New York to Havre, and went thence to Paris. On his way home he arrived in London about 9 p. m., and was in Liver- pocl next morning, ard while Sir John was in London Sir Charles and Lady Tup- per were in Liverpool, and their London house closed. After his arrival in Can- aia, when Sir Charles went West to Winnipeg, he never left the car at Ot- tawa, and on his return he stayed a couple of days with the young Sir Charles, and

I noticed a paragraph in the Islaud press, a few 2 ago, copied from the Mainland papers, to the effect that Mr Joseph Pope had completed arrangements with English publishers, for the produc- tion of -his life of Sir John Macdonald There is no truth in the report. Mr. Pope’s book is not yet finished, and while he may have consulted English publishers, it is almost certain that it will be brought out in Canada. Itis to be regretted that Mr Pope’s labours on the great chief’s mem- oirs should have been: interrupted by his employment on the Behring Sea Commis- sion. Still we should be gratified that his talents are in demand, and what are more valuable than talents, hia in- dustry and perseverance’; for brains ere mighty little good without application will'be glad to learn that Mr. Pepe’s work in Paris was highly apprectated -by the Britixh side of the case. Independent of the Colonial Secretary’s letter, already published, and Sir Charles Hibbert Tup- per’s opinion, Sir Richard Webster wa» pleased to express his warm commenda- tion of Mr. Pope’s services, and only yes-
terday_ he received a note from Sir -Char-
les Kuseell praising his work in the strougest possible terms.
I have several times wondered that Tue Exayiver névér contained “any extended allusion to my old friend, Mr. C.: Birch Bagster, a notice’ of whose’ death E read with much regret » few morths ago. Here, perhaps, 1 may be allowed to relate an incident connected ‘with him, which goes to show how small our world really is. Soon after coming to Ottawa 1 form- ed the acqueintance of Major ‘Hollins worth, a son of a brave officer in Her Majesty's service, Capt. Hollinsworth, who was one of the great Napoleon’s guard at St. Helena, and who was afterwards one of the “Military Knights of Windsor,”? One evening my friend Hollinsworth took from his desk a couple’of photographs, Laaked whose ‘they were. He replied: “My irather and his wife”’ His brother’: photograph waa that of an extremely fine- looking man, while that: of ‘his wife, a handsome woman, did not look so well, a+ it was.taken in a white dress: Casually ny friend remarked that she had been a Miss Bagster -I said the name was familiar. He added, that her family was that of an exfénsive. publishing: house in London. I said that I had a friend, in Charlottetown,. who was connected with that house—Cornelius Birch Bagster To make a long story short, Mra; Vievor Hollinsworth was Birch Bagster’s daugh- ter, her mother having’ been a “Misé
Aitken (whom I remember well); a ‘sistet*
of the late W. B. Aitken, of Georgetowti. It took fully tWo hours for .HoHinswerth and me to talk the matter over that ‘hight. Birch Bagster’s mother lived at Windsor, where Captain Hollinsworth was in“ at- tendance on the Queen :--there Mrs. C. B. Bagster and her family lived after they left the I land. The young people were well acquainted, and Victor Hullinsworth (called after Hér Majesty) married one of the girls, I forget which. Victor Hollins-
worth was a tea-planter .in . China, but is now, I think, living in England. My friend reminded me of
an incident T-had-heard Birch Bagster re- late, that his mother lived to be over 100 year of age, and that on “her Siundreth birthday the Queen sent her a choice bou- quet of flowers.
Two years ago, when Rubert McGréevy was busy swearing away honest men’s characters and betraying his companions in rascality, he was hailed by the Opposi- tion press a3 a hefo, a martyr and” sundty other titles expressive of ali the virtues, For the past month he has lain in Ottawa goal, detained as a witness for the Crown, because no two persons could be found to 20 security for his appearance at the trial next month. Where are al) his friends and panegyrists of two yeara ago with their-professions of friendship and _ affec-
tion ? They vowed the highest confidence in him then; what has lie done since to destroy it?
I regret to observe that the Examiner has been misled by the rumour that Lord Aber- deen has demanded the enlargement of Rideau Hall. This is another of the can ards manufactured by press correspondents of lively imagination. The new Governor General’sentowrage is larger than that ofany of his predecessors,but it will cost the coun- try nothing more, They are only so many more mouths to feed and bodies to clothe. The Governor General’s salary is not cal- culated according to the size of his family ; it would be the same whether he was a bachelor or had 600 in his retinue. Lord Aberdeen isa man of wealth, which he and his wife spend generously and to good purpose, in works of wide charity. Their character La: preceded them ; and, apart from their high: position, they deserve good treatment at our hands. Enouzh for this time. W. C.D.
