THE SITUATION AT THE FRONT

Further examination of the ravine revcais

the {act that fifty-five good horses were killed there in Friday's battle. The bodies of three Lodians which were too near our]

lines to be removed were also found. The officer at Qu Appelle says that s sttlers are needlessly alarmed and that Indiaus aud Half-breeds are quiet. The mounted police have issued orders at Reginathat no arms or ammunition shall be sold to half breeds, sod parties violating this order will be ar rested at Scouts under General Middleton capturing rebel cattle and horses opposition. A despatch from Battleford reports that scouts under Col. Herchimer have discovered the Indians in that district who raided the settlement, to be encamped in force about live miles west of They are faring sumptuously on settlers’ cattle and are driving their horses and buckbeards. Col. Otter is making prepa- rations for an early settlement of accounts with them.

Couriers will occupy two days going and two coming. Major-General Strange with a force of 150 infantry, will scout between Edmonton and Pitt. Major Douling believed that Capt. Steele arrived in Edmonton on the 3lst ult. with his scouts and police. Immediate

and active measures will be taken to drive Fort Pitti, Saddle Lake and Frog Lake Indians to the north branch,

where they will be run down by the ferces under Col. Herchimer. The Halifax batta- lion has arrived at Swift Current. The Winnipeg Guards have been equipped, and entered upon their first duty at Fort Osborne on the 50th ult., other troops hav- ing all gone to the front. Seven carloads of horses and waggons, purchased in Dakota, have arrived from the south, and were forwarded at once tothefront. Arch- bishop Tache has been interviewed upon the situation. He confessed that he was very much annoyed at the way some Eng- lish papers treat the French-Canadisns. On all hands they were accused of disloyalty. It is not long since the very word ‘* Cana- dian ”’ English and Scotch people, because it was associated with the French. Now the meaning has been changed, and instead of being referred to as French-Canadians we are simply spoken off as ‘the French.’ it isnot long since a member of the local Parliament referred to us as ‘foreigners.’ After having feught and died for the country for generations,is it not hard to be insulted, on all hands to be told we are dis- loyal? There is one important point which seems to be lost sight of entirely and that is our religion binds us to loyalty, and it would be directly against our religious principles to go into rebellion. With re- gard to the accusation that we sympathize with Riel in his movement, | can only say that my sympathy is of the nature of a father’s towards his child doing wrong.

INDIANS MUST BE CAPTURED.

The special from Winnipeg, dated 29th : ‘R eports from QuAppile are conflicting. Chief Commissioner Wrigley,of the Hudson Bay Co., to-day received a letter from Factor McDonaid: ‘There is no cause for excitement among the settlers here. The Indians and half-breeds are all quiet so far. The difficulty is in keeping settlers from getting excited. Major Walsh's view per contra.’“’ The following in a report of an interview with Major Walsh who returned to Qu’ Appelle station from Fort Qu’ Appelle on Monday evening

‘What do you think of the situation of aifaire!

They are serious not only in this district but weet. The Indians in every direction are trying to coerce the government. There are 400 troops at Fort Qu'Appelle, and 400 here; yet the Indians are not deterred from committing depredations. Several houses, situated but a few. miles from Fort Qu’Appelle, have been plundered within the last 36 hours. I see but one policy for us to pursue, that is to send into the coun- try a suilicient force to thoroughly conquer the Indians, disarm and dismount them, compel them to remain on reserves and feed them there. This severe measure coming from me may surprise you, but in no other manner, I fear, can settlers’ families be made safe, and the country restored to per- manent peace,

THE NORTHCOTE ASHORE.

_ The Mail's special from Clarke's cross- ing of 29th says: Word has just been received that the Norhcote ran ashore two days ago, on a sand bar 90 miles south of here. The troops and supplies will now have to come by land, but there will be some delay as there are no wagona Gen. Middleton cannot move another mile with- out supplies. The wavons coming in by the trail from Qu’Appelle and Humboldt carry very light loads, and are so long on the way that the men and antaals eat up a large portion of the freight. The general has the utmost confidence in Col. Williams and the Midland wing with the Northcote, but is evidently extremely anxious to hear from them. Everything now depends on the supplies. When they arrive Gen. Mid- dleton will push on at once upon Batoche’s. lf she does not turn up we may have to return here. The rebeis are reported to have gone back a little, but their scouts are still near here and the main body is doubtless between Gabriel’s and Batoche'’s.

THE RUSSIAN WAR,

PURTHER PARTICULARS. Odessa advices montion the fact that the

—_—— Grand Duke Alex , Chief Commander of the Russian navy, is expected there soon. The fitting out of men-of-war at Nicolaielf s nearly completed and it is rep wrted that | Russia is prepared to encamp 55,000 troops at Merv. ‘Turkey has ordered native | papers to keep strict silence respecting the position ef the Dardanelles in the Afghan ‘question. The London Daily News says lthat the idea of localizing the war 1s chimerical, The Baltic powers have no more right to claim the Baltic in the event lof war than England and France have to iclese the English Channel. The London | news thinks that Turkey is entitled to close | the Dardanelles, but says that those who | believe that

| must be exceedingly credulous and would | probably also believe that the Sultan wants to see Russia at Constantinople. The limes says we have no means of knowing | whether Russia is or is not advancing be-

lyond Maruchak. She may be at Bala | Murghah or even nearer to Herat than that ltown is. The London Standard says: i‘Russia gains in strength every hour by

ivaining time. If we are forced to draw the |sword, let us do so before the moment for striking with effect has been sulfered to pass iby.” The Odessa division of the Russian army, numbering 30,000 men, has been | ordered from the Black Sea to the Caspian.

Garrisons in and around Odessa will be re

placed by troops from the interior. The lsum of 1,150,000 roubles ($975,000) has | been awarded to complete the defences of /}Odessa. The London Daily News, in an leditorial says: ‘If the Ameer refuses to |yield Maruchak, we are bound to

jand occupation. The News also suggests that itis aserious question whether there lis any use of continuing negotiations with Russia.” ‘Two hundred workmen have been sent from St. Petersburg to Orenborg to strengthen the military defences at that ‘important post. The government is buying coal abroad at any price, and is engaging the services of a large uumber of laborers. Arsenals and shipyards are overwhelmed with work. The breaking up of ice in the harbors is dangerous to navigation. The Vienna T'agblatt’s St. Petersburg correspon dent says: ‘‘A council of war was held on the 28th. It is believed the council dis- cussed the necessity of occupying Herat. Eleven vessels of the Croastadt fleet have gone to the Baltic. The Amsterdam Han dels bad says that in an interview Prince Mirski, aide-de-camp to the Czar, stated that Russia was unable to respect an

KOMAROFF S REJOINER.

The Official Messenger publishes the fol- lowing telogram from Gen. Komaroff, despatehed from Askabad on the 24th inst, : “A telegram forbidding the occupaticn of Penjdeh reached me March 23rd. I only communicated it to the commanders of the outposts avd did not make it general- ly known. Col. Zacrzevski, with my per- mission, interviewed by some British officers in a private capacity. | did not admit their right to treat officially. I addressed my demands direct to the com- mander of the Afghan forces. General Alikhanot! with a sotnia of Tureomans rode in the direction of Morkals, along the river bank on the Russian side. It was by no means my intention to advance on Pend-

jeb. To;march the sotnia in the rear of 4,000 Afghans was inconceivable. One company of Russians marched on the

heights on the right bank of the Murghab river, but did not reach our videttes on the left bank of same river. When Afghans epproached, however, this one company by order returnedt» camp. thus concludes his despatch: ‘ lu view of the constant movements over hundreds of versts of territory and owing also to heavy floods it is impossible to furnish regular reports.’ A DASH TO HERAY.

A despatch to the Times from Tirpul, dated April 27th, says: ‘* Large Russian reinforcements are coming from the Cas- pian, but the number of troops east of the Caspian is exaggerated. Russia doubtless intends to make a dash to Herat. The statement that the Afghans attacked Rus. sans at Zlficar is untrue. People of Penj- deh were quiet and industrious. Russian troops are closs to Aklapa. Commanders have occupied gevernors’ tents and issued edicts as yove:nors. They have also forei- bly demanded the surrender of all presents given the Afghens by Sir Peter Lumsden. It is generaly believed that war now, although it wonld give Russia a few suc- cesses against Afghans, would result in the breaking up of the Russian empire, while by waiting a year or two, when Russia will have completed her railways, the issue would be uncer/ain. The tirm attitude of England excites warm devotion here.

RUSSIA'S CONDITION AS A NAVAL POWER.

The New York Herald's correspondent in Russia professes to have just visited Kron- stadt and the navy yards near St. Peters- burg. At least ten thousand workmen are working all day and all night by electric light putting the fleet on war footing. Two iron-clade, the Admiral Nakhimoff and Alexander I1.—each of which is claimed to be a match for British vessels of Devasta- tion class— will be ready, for sea early in the summer. They are over eight thousand tons, fourteen inch armor, aud will each carry fourteen guns of twelve and nine inch calibre. Tho Baltic fleet now consists of 215 vessels—of which 33 are iron-clads and 100 torpedo }»oats—ready for active service in ten days. All the Russian naval officers at Kronstadt look forward with the greatest delight to a brush with England.

A well-known Russian Admiral said to the Herald correspondent: ‘‘]f England tries to blockade the Baltic we shall come out and fight her in the open sea. Onur navy now is in splendid fighting trim. We have the greatest confidence in our torpedo boats.”

BY PERAMBULATOR.

The commanding form of the Hon. John | Longworth is missed from our thorough- fares. In pose, dignity of demeanor, and | in general deportment he was everything |

that a gentleman should be. (Eur since I came to the island, better than twenty years ago,

| always found Mr. Longworth, in his eftice, at his residence, (where | must say i only met him in his professional capacity) on the street, or in travelling conveyances, always courteous and always dignified. It isjnot oftenjthat one meets with a handsomer specimen of manhood than the Hon. John Longworth presented in his prime, and he preserved an excellent presence even down to the day of his death: Few supposed that he was in his 71st year. I am sure that whea I last spoke to him in the Prothono- tary’s Office, I had no idea he was much past sixty.

As-asample of degeneracy in these days, I may mention the coarse attacks on Mrs. McLeod in the Herald. They possess a degree of smartness, at the expense of a ls ynsitive woman ; and this procedure on the part of the editor of the Herald is so foreign to the spirit which actuated the late Charles DesBrisay, Esq., who was one of the most polite and courteous of men, especialiy to womankind I have often seen him per- forming little acts of kindness and attention to poor women, and he was always as cour- teous to those beneath him socially as to the grand dames of the community. He seemed incapable of offending or wounding the feelings of one of the most inconspicu- eus of the opposite sex.

A few years since, among the many sew- ing machine models in the Patent Office at Washington, 1 saw what I, and thousands uf others, it seems, supposed to be the first sewing machine ever made ; but according to the Baltimore Hera/d, the real original sewing machine invented and made by Elias Howe, the father of that great branch of modern industry, was recently on ex- hibition in that city. Itis the property of lthe danghier of the late Mr. Howe, who, although she is the possessor of millions, values this plain, unattractive- looking piece of handiwork more than she does any of the treasures of her mansion. And well she may, as the little machine, invented by her father, produced the millions of dollars which she inherited. The little machine from which the model at the Patent office was made, has had a singular and eventful history. After Howe firmly established his invention and began to acquire fame, he carried this particular machine with him on his tour to Europe, and the dainty and jewelled fingers of royalty have tarned many and many times the little fly wheel, and the eyes of kings and

journey, with its monotonous cluckey- clack clackety-click. Once, when poverty overtook him, Howe pawned the machine in Londov. For some years Howe suffered intensely from proverty before he could get the public interested in his invention ; but when the tide of fortune once turned, millions flowed into his coffers. It is said that Howe, while a clerk in a clothing establishment, overheard a gentleman one evening remark to one of the firm that if aby person would invent a sewing machine he would make a fortune. This first set Howe to thinking on the subject, and the result was the machine we mention. Amongst all the thousands of improve- ments, two great features of the sewing machine, as devised by Howe, have remain ed—the shuttle and threading the needle at the point. In all other attempts to pro- duce sewing machines previous to Howe's, the experimentors attempted to follow the old method of threading the head of the needle. Howe used the point, and hence the great measure of his success,

Britain is not without soms compensation —whether adequate or not—for the enor- mous sums spent in the Soudan war, and for the sacrifice of hundreds of precious lives therein. She has added the Arabic word Zareba to the English vocabulary. The term means a temporary fortification, made of wegyons, brush, boxes, and the veual impedimenta of camps or warlike expeditions. The thing is of common occurrence on the western plains of North America, where emigrants form a zareba at night for protection against Indians.

Two patents have been recently taken out in the United States, it is said, for tools which the inventors say will bore square holes. There will now be no need of ‘* shoving a square man through a round hole,” or a ‘‘ round man through a square hole,” as proper ones may be chosen by reason of these inventions.

Ee Sve A Montb Under the Snow.

TERRIBLE FATE OF SOME Denver, Cot,, April 27.—The rescuing party which left Laadville yesterday for the scene of the terrible ca'amity at the Home stake mine reached their destination at 8 o'clock. Several excavations in the snow were made before the cabins could be locat- ed. The first one found contained provi- sions, etc., but no bodies. The bunk house was next reached, where 11 bodies were found. One body stood erect with the head thrown forward as if listening, the whole position indicating apprehenion. Near him lay one of his companionsin a bunk with his face downward, and arms crossed under the head. Three bodies were found in an upper bunk clasped in each other's arms and so strongly interlocked as to re-

them. One man was found beside his bunk in an attitude of prayer. In another part of the cabin were two bodies crushed betveen fallen timbers, Other bodies were found lying about the cabin as if thrown from the bunks by the shock. Owing to the fact that all of the faces were covered with half an inch of white mould, the features could not be recognized. No doubt death was caused by suffocation in nearly every case A clock and a waich were found which had stopped precisely at 3.30. Krom letters and papers found it is believed that the slide occurred between the 20th and 25th of February. The report that some of the men had been seen a fortnight ago proves unfounded.
