The ceremonies of distribution of the Exhi- bition prizes took place to-day in the Palais de le Industrie, in the presence of an immense audience. At 1.30 Marshal McMahon, Presi- | dent of the Republic, opened the ceremony of distribution. He thanked the foreign princes for their presence, and the Governments and peoples who had contributed to the success of the Exposition. He said that the result showed what seven years of self-concentra- tion devoted to labor have effected in relieving past disasters. ‘‘The recollection of those misfortunes,” he said, ‘will teach us to de- velop and maintain a spirit of concord, abso- lute respect for our laws and institutions, and an ardent, disinterested love of country.”

The Minister of Commerce, after replying to the President’s speech, read a list of awards and distributed the prizes. The following Americans have received decorations of the Legion of Honor :—

The Mayor of Montreal to be Sued for Damages. .

[From the Montreal Wttness. |

Mr. Joseph Doutre, Q. C., of the firm of Doutre & Doutre, attorneys at law, who was the defending counsel in the Orange cases leaves for Europe to-day. It havi been suspected that his mission to re was in connection with the case mentioned above, a reporter for the Witness called at his office this morning to ascertain the truth as to the object of his visit to the old coun- try. Mr. Doutre was found busy prepar- ing for his lengthy trip.

‘‘Mr. Doutre,” said the reporter, ‘‘it is rumored you are going to Europe.”

‘*T am sir.”

‘‘Has your journey anything to do with the Orange case ?”

‘‘None whatever. I have half a dozen cases to plead before the Privy Council.”

‘‘What is to be done with the accused Orangemen while you are away!” ,

**Well, you see they have got off, and the case will therefore lie over for a month.”

**Are they to be prosecuted on a second charge, then /”

“No, but they are going to prosecute Mayor Beaudry for damages.”

‘‘How many are going to sue him?”

‘“‘The five that have just been acquitted, and two more who were arrested and dis- charged. before.”

Mr. Doutre then excused himself from further conversation on the ground that he was busy preparing for his departure this afternoon.

The Inditns of the Northwest.

From information received recently from the Northwest, the Mail has reason to believe that one of the first duties of the naw Admin- istration will be to see that the provisions of the treaties made with the Indians are faith fully carried out. The Canadian Indians are well disposed, but exact the fullest compliance with treaty stipulations. The minds of those in the Territories are much exercised by the presence of the American Sioax. Their de- ceo age for subsistence is mainly upon the

flalo, though some of them are making a laudable effort to cultivase the soil. The posi- tion brought about by the presence of the American Sioux refugees is a grave one, They have no means of living except by the chase of the buffalo ; and, with the present pro, of its extermination, persons well-informed believe that within three years this animal will be almost extinct. The present season has been an exceptionally severe one, as owi to the want of water caused by the absence rain, the buffalo have perished by thousands, When this source of food fails it will affect the entire Indian population of the Northwest.

Mr. Giavstronr’s Lingace.—A correspond- ent of the Scottish Amerian Journal writes : In the account of the ‘‘Gladstones,” by your intelligent correspondent Mr. W. Ballantyne, I was surprised to tind that he failed to notice the fact that they are descended from the Kings of Scotland and land by the mar- riage of James IL. with the Lady Jane Beau. fort. From this alliance is clearly traced the descent of Andrew Robertson, Provost of Dingwall, and sheriff substitute of the Count of Ross, W. E. Gladstone’s dfather. It will thus be seen that Mr. Gladstone, whilst addressing an English audience, made a slight mistake when he stated ‘‘That every drop of blood in his veins was pure Scotch.” 44>

The people of Belfast will entertain Lord Dufferin ata banquet on his arrival there. The Belfast Whig says: ‘‘We said, when he went away, that though Canada was a loyal Province, Lord Dufferin would leave it even more loyal than he found it. What was then a prophecy is now a generally acknowledged fact. We may say of Lord Dufferin, as Sir Robert Peel said of Lord Palmerston, ‘We are preud of him.’

The Boston ‘‘Herald” contains a long article on the Courtney-Hanlan race, in which are answers to a large number of questions put to Courtney by his judge, whereby he seeks to relieve himself of the odium of having sold the race. He denies any crookedness on his part, and ascribes his defeat to obstructions on the course near the finish,

The *‘ Penn Monthly”, of Philadelphia, re- ferring to the Canadian elections, says: ‘The new Protectionist movement is directed, not against the English wares which do not sell, but against the American wares which do sell in Canada. It is to meet American competi- tion that the Dominion has swung into line with us as a Protectionist country.”

Jt is believed that the Rothschilds have agreed with Rivers Wilson, the Egyptian Fi- nance Minister, to loan Egypt thirty million

} dollars to clear off her floating debt.
