that up to a few days ago no less than fou months acrears of money due to the con- tractors tor supplies to the Hospital for the Insane had been allowed to aceumu late. The people who had tendered to ‘supply that institution on tne basis of monthly payments were told when they applied to the secretary for their money that it was impossible to get a meéting of the trustees to pasa the accounts.

It is plain that the old plan of the fall of 1878 is now in force, andtbat a sys- tematic effort is going on to delay pay- ment until the end of the year.

France levies a heavy tax on imperts of tobacco and cigars, and this makes smug gling very tempting. Lately a wagon loaded with beavy timbers happened to excite the suspicion of a Custom House officer at Attargette. He found that the timbers were hollow and filled with choice tobacco, valued at over 10,000 francs. The driver made a jump across the line and thus escaped arrest, but he had to leave his dear sticks beliind, to lose them for-
