The ‘‘morality demonstration’ at Hyde Pack on the 22nd inst., was attended by an enormous crowd, estimated at 150,000. At 4.20 the meeting equalled in numbers the great assemblage which gathered at the same place sowe months ago to make a de- monstration in favor of the enlarged Franchise Bill, Thousands{of women were ‘in the crowd and ten times as many men |were on the way in the procession to the ‘park, One of the waggons in the proces- sion carried twenty-four little zirls dressed in white. These girls held aloft a banner bearing the inscription, ‘‘shall the innocents ibe slain?” Another cart carried a large fac simile of the Queen’s letter to Mra. Booth, approving the Salvation Army’s, work in rescuing young girls from vice. The East end contingent of the procession staried towards Hyde Park promptly at 4 o’cleck. This body had three bands and carried sixty banners, all having inscribed on them such mottoes as ‘Save our daughters.” etc., and had four-horse waggovs. With the exception cf one bearing twenty-four girls under thirteen years of age and dressed in white, the waggons were laden with womea dress- ed in the deepest of mourning, while the _ vehicles themselves were all heavily draped ‘with black. Fcllowing the waggons were jabout two thousand men on foot. All traffic had to be suspended during the pro- | gress of the precession along its entire route. The demonstration included temperance, Good Templars, Band of Hope lodges, the Salvation Army and various trade anc friendly societies, the Ladies’ Wational ‘society in waggons, and Young Men’s Christian Association from nine se. tions of _the metropolis, besides excursi parties | from the provinces, numbering maBy thous- jands, Bands headed each contingent. Ten | platforms were improvised around the Re-| ‘formers’ tree in Hyde Park. A _ resolution | was passed simultaneously at all the plat- ‘forms, pledging the meeting to assist in en- | forcing the provisions of the Criminal | Amendment Act. The affair was a decided /success and the entire preccedings were orderly. Zoe | — | The Loan of Treasury Bills. (Montreal Gazette.) | It is announced that the Canadian Pacitic | Railway notified the acting Minister of Finance that it desires to return the five millions of treasury bills borrowed a few 'weeks ago in accordance with the terms of | the act to re-arrange the securities held by the Government for the loan to the com- pany. It wes originally intended that the treasury bills should be loaned to the com- pany for a year or more to enable its float- ing debt to be discharged and immediate | relief had from pressing financial obligations but the successful issue of $15,000,000 of first mortgage bonds in London at the satis- factory price of 95, made it evident that be needed only in fact until such _ time the company could print its bonds and| deliver them to the subscribers. The treasury bills are, therefore, te be returned and cancelled. It has been the fashion with opponents of the Government to treat this temporary advance as a permanent obligation on the country, a virtual increase of the public debt, the reduction of which could not reasonably be anticipated, and many an effort has been made to alarm the people with doleful predictions of the pro- bable large sums the railway would yet require from the Government. These anticipations are already disproved. The company has obtained in the open money in line twenty | not contagious. It is VOL. 17.---NO. ey), CURRENT NOTES.

Rumors that the Vatican has arranged with China for mutual diplomatic repre- sentation are denied. and strike ior The chain makers of Staffordshire Worcestershire have resolved to an advance of 20 per cent.

The total exports via Montreal to date were 41,267 head, an increase of 8,242 over the same period last year. Henceforth she should not be called the Princess Beatrice, but the Princess Henry of Battenburg. The Queen herself in The Court Circular is authority for the chance | of style. Lord Wolseley says that no reward was ever offsred by the British for Pain, and that ‘‘no British officer in the Soudan would have given five shillings for Pain’s head on or off his shoulders.” Hawarden, Mr. Gladstone’s country seat. in Flintshire, North Wales, is pronounced jas if it were spelled Harden. It is a most delightful place and is visited by many | Awericans as well as Englishmen received in New York, | Saturday, from the General Frieght Agent |of the Union and Central Pacific Railroads iat Omaha says:—‘ The last train which jearried to New York tea shipments via |San Francisco made the run from ocean to |ocean in six days, three hours and thirty ‘e'ght minutes—the fastest freight time |ever made.’ | A telegram In Spain Cholera is assuming the fury | with which the doctors are unable (o cope. ‘The viciims die suddenly without occur- |rence of diarhoea or vomiting. ‘The patient | feels coldness which cannot be counteract, jed by reactives, even by the most violent friction. Two hours after death the body becomes black. Aithough epidemic, it is feared that 100 deaths daily will soon be recorded. The wet end hot weather prevalent of late in the vicinity of London, Oat., besides assistance from the Government would injuring the grain crops, has had a serious for a very brief period, | effect on the potato fields, blight having ags| appeared in many places, especially on low undrained soils. When it appears, the dis- ease is very rapid in its progress, whole fields turning black inside of tweuty-four houre. Digging the potatoes does not seem to prevent their destruction, the gerins of disease apparently lying in the tuber A farm in the town of Eliot, Me., has been the home of nine generations of one family, having been hended down from father to son for nearly 250 years. The first house was built of bricks imported from the old country, but in 1736 it was so shaken by an earthquake that it was torn down and the present structure built of heavy oak timber. Upward of 75 children market, upon its own securities, all the money required for the completion and| and equipment of its enterprise, it is about | to deliver back the treasury bills tem- | porarily borrowed, and there is little doubt/ that in a few months the twenty millions) obtained from the Governments in 1884) and secured by a like amount of bonds will) also be paid off. Railway Accident. A terrible railroad tragedy occurred al mile out of Ottawa, on the Rideau River bridge of the Canada Atlantic Railway, on | Saturday afternoon. As a freight train was crossing the bridge, the engineer saw | four children on the track. He immedi-| ately signaled down brakes but it was too) late ; two of the children stepped aside and | seized hold of wires strung along, but the) second eldest, a girl, fainted on the track. | Her sister, eldest of all, stopped to drag) her off. It was fatal heroism; in a second | the train struck them both, and nearly the whole train passed over them. They were cut into pieces, fragments of their bodies | being found several feet away. One girl’s | head wascut right off atthe neck. The! pieces were gathered together, pul into a} tool} chest and brought to the city. The girls were eleven and fourteen years of age | and named Toban. They were buried on) Monday. | a Re esos | A Story of Duck Lake. Terrible John Weymiskirch, who was at the battle of Duck Lake with the Prince Albert volunteers, says that when Crozier saw that | the police and volunteers were being sur-| rounded by the half-breeds, he gave the | order to fire, and that several of the half-, breeds fell from their horses at the first | volley. He is an old soldier and has been | in active service in Europe, but he says) that was the hottest fight he ever saw, that both parties were well armed, and were at close quarters. He never saw men acting as coolly asthe police. He asserts that the rebels lost seven half-breeds and seven Indians killed in this fight, ond that another Indian, now at Duck Lake, is cer- tain to die of the effects of a wound re- ceived there. Gabriel Dumont was wounded in the head and _ his two brothers killed. He is certain that the rebels have greatly understated their losses. ‘mens. have been born and brought up here, and it is recorded that only one unmarried per- son has ever died in it, except one child, who was accidentally killed. Lord Wolseley may have his wishes with regard to a campaign on the Nile this autumn confirmed after all. In spite of the efforts to hand over the Soudan difli- culty first to the Turks and later to the Italians, tkere is said to be a Bedoin incursion coming down on Debbeh and Dongola, where - it would have to be immediately met by a Nile expedition. The Egyptian Govern- ment is eager to face the music with its own army, and as the movement is no longer one inspired by religious fanatacism, but merely a raid by a hungry rabble for food, of which the country sovth of Don- gola has been ewept clean, it is not im- probable that it could do so successfully. Should the English army get again seri- ously involved in the Nile deserts, the tone of Russa and France toward England would be speedily affected by the fact, While wandering about South Yarmouth I unearthed a new industry,which for want of a better name, I call eel farming. I have heard of all sorts of farming, from baby farming down, but this is a case of farming eels. Two gentlemen of the place, whose experience warrants them in trying the experiment, purchased a large fresh water pond and into this they put 30 barrels of salt water eels of all sizes. At a rough guess there must be in the pond 20,000 eels at the present time. These are expected to increase in size and weight at least three- fuld by the first of October, when they will be taken out end shipped to the New York market, where there is always a great demand for them. Here on the sea coast no one ever thinks of eating a fresh water eel; its flesh is soft and very fat, but they are continued a great delicacy by city people, and the larger the fish the better prices they bring, To feed them 9,000 ** horse feet’ were caught and kept in a pound in the river, and twice a week 700 pounds are thrown into the pond, and by this time the eels have learned to know when they are fed, and the water soon ‘becomes alive with these squirming speci- The scheme hes not found much favor with the village people generally, but perhaps when winter comes the gentlemen most interested will be the ones to laugh. te ee ad . rE ee ee
