The crops have been a failure, and poverty has prevented a corresponding import of food.

On both sides the line buffalo have been struck and pemmican is growing plentiful among the red men. Information to this effect comes from Capt. McLeod, in the North West, who is in the best possible position for learning the facts. This news is all the more pleasing because of the change in the aspect of the Indian question south of the boundary, there being now reason to hope. since warlike Utes have surrendered for trial braves accused of murdering an Indian agent of the Washington Government, that possibly there may be no renewal of Indian wars in the United States. ttecnesin — GAMBETTA is persuaded thatif girls are not educated up to the level of the Republican ideal the Republic will fall down to tneir no- tion of what it ought to be. It will become a disguised monarchy or theocracy, until the time is ripe for the Pope and Cesar to ad- vance upon the stage and invest themselves with all power. Gambetta said the best ad- visers he ever had—not alone as to the con- duct of his private life, but ‘n politics—were good women, whose minds were emancipated trom sacredotal tyranny. The French woman, in his opinion, is a marvellously gifted crea- ture, and would be, if emancipated, simply peerless. It was of vital importance to the commonwealth that the fullest justice should be dome to the girlhood of Franee. Honor to a P. E. Istanper.—We learn from the columns of the Quven’s College Journal, that Mr. A. A. McKenzie, B. C., at present attending the Glasgow University, Scotland, has been elected non-resident Vice-President of the Alma Mater Society of Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario. He is very popular among his fellow students, and enjoys also the high regard of the Professors. It will gratify his friends in this Province to hear of the well-earned honor thus shown him by the principal society in connection with the Canadian University of which he is a distinguished graduate. From the same source we learn that a popular lecture was given, on the 2ist ult., by Principal Grant, on ‘‘Norman McLeod.” The Journal notices it thus: *‘We can only say that the large audience, all of whom had heard Principal Grant before, were not disappointed, It was a sketch of the life of a good man, sketched by one who had the good fortune to knew him, and the better fortune to ap- AMINER.

Orrawa, Dec. 18. - Sir Charles was at St. Catharines yester- day, and inspeeted some proposed changes in the canal near thers. The new depart- ure of Sir Charles and Sir Leonard, by per- sonally inspecting matters under their con- trol, is eliciting warm admiration, in con- trast to the customs of their predecessors, who viewed everything from their Minis- terial seats through the misty advice of de- partmental loafers. Teronto, Dee. 18. Judge Barton has been compelled to re- tire temporarily from the Bench, owing te the complete loss of hiseyesight. It is be- lieved that he will recever the use of one of his eyes after a poriod of rest. Sussex, N. B., 18. Sir Leonard Tilley, accompanied by Hon. G. E. King, Major General Domville, and others, arrived here by train at 2.25 o’clock this p. m., and was met by the Reception Committee appointed by the citizens of this place. Sir Leonard was evcorted to the factories in and abont Sussex, and ex- pressed himself as much pleased with the evidences of prosperity visible in the dif- fereut industries. Having completed hie tour°of the manufactories, the Finance Minister proceeded to Victoria Hall, which was crowded with the leading men of Sus- sex. When the applause which greeted Sir Leonard on his entrance had subsided, the Chairman called on Nelson Arnold, Esq., who read a highly complimentary address, to which the hon. gentleman made a suit- able reply. Orrawa, Dec. 18. It is rumored that the Manitoba elec- tions have resulted in the defeat of the Government by 14to 10. As the returns are not yet complete, the exact resuits are unknown. The Montreai Witness says:— Seldom has honor been better earned than the homage paid by the temperance men of New Brunswick to Sir Leonard Tilley. All his life he has served his generation in the ad- vocacy of this reform, and has neither in point of public eminence nor public recog- nition failed of his reward. ' A silver medal has been donated by His Excellency the Governor General to the Ottawa Ladies College for competition. | The principal Grain Elevating Company im Mor ‘real has an increase of 20 per cent in its pusiness this year over last. Thirteen cars of iron ore were shipped from Belleville yesterday for Buffalo. There is a rumor from Quebec that Mr. Chaveau is to be appointed Judge of the Quebec Police Court. In consequence of the revival of the cotton trade in Lancashire, Cheshire and Derbyshire the weavers will apply for an immediate increase in Wages. : Despatches from Paris predict the early announcement of a new Frerch Ministry, perhaps on Saturday, with Defreycinct Pre- mier and Waddington as Minister of For- eign Affairs. IRELAND. Dvusiin, Dec. 18. Special cablegrams to the Toronto Mai! state that the Duchess of Marlborough, the wife of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, intends to start a relief fund for the suffer- ers in Ireland, and she appeals for contri- butions. She says while the present dis- tress is not for a moment comparable to that of 1847 , in some parts of Kerry, Gal- way, Sligo, Mayo, Roscommon, Donegal and Cork there will be extreme misery and sufferiug among the poor. EUROPEAN. VienNNA, Dec. 18. The Emperor Francis Joseph, in replying to an address from the delegations to-day, said : ‘‘ My relations with all foreign pow- ers are most friendly. My close under- standing with the German Empire offers a strengthened guarantee that universal tran- uility, which ensures practical labor its full development, will be established. The Prohibition on Cattle Im- portation. The Privy Council of England has revok- ed the following orders :—That of Febru ary 10th, rendering American cattle subject to slaughter on landing or quarantine ; those of May 16thand January 13th rela- tive to American swine, and that of Novy- ember 4th, rendering American sheep sub- ject to slaughter or quarantine. The revo- cation is to take effect on the 31st inst. The United States, however, does not ap- pear in the Gazefte’s official list of countries whose live stock is exempt from slaughter or quarautine. It is presumed, therefore, that partial restrictions will continue in force as to the United States, Killed by a Meteor. News from Nemah County has reached Kansas City, Mo., that David Meisenthaler, a well-known stock man, was killed by a meteor or aerolite. He was driving, catile from the field when the meteor de- scended obliquely. through a tall maple, cutting the limbs as if it had been a cannon ball. It struck Meisenthaler near the shoulder, passing through the bedy obliquely, and burying itself two feet in the earth. The meteor is composed of iron pyrites, round and rough, about the size of preciate him.” a common patent bucket. See wo. ee png ee a om aneiguarannensta
