The scruti- neers have made reports from all places, which give Mr. Baker 23 majority on the total count. It is very likely that this will be found correct when the official returns are received.

The New York Suw of the 4th inst. gives a lengthy notice ef the arrival in New York of the Duke of Argyll. Several foreign Ambassadevs, ex-Mayor Prince, of Boston, and other celebrities stepped on the Scythia. The Sin continues :-— Then came a pleasant, somewhat stout gentleman, with red hair, gray whiskers, and slightly freckled face, who, it was whispered, was the Duke of Argyll. He wore a dark mixed summer overcoat, stand- ing collar, and black cravat ; and although he had three or four servants in attendance, was littered up with the small traps of a traveller. On the Duke’s arm was his eldest daughter, Lady Elizabeth Campbell, a tajl, delicate-complexioned blonde, with light auburn hair and pale face. She wore atdack cloak of some plain stuff, witha black fua collar, over an ordinary tfavel- ling dress. Behind this couple came Lord Valter Campbell, a younger son of the Duke, and almost+ an exact picture, saving that he looks younger, and that his hair is redder, of his brother, the Marquis of Lorne. Lord Walter wore a blue flannel yachtman’s suit, a blue checked shirt, and black tie. He escorted his youngest sister, Lady Mary Campbell, a. pretty young woman of eighteen or twenty, with wavy avburn hair, who was dressed like her sis- ter in travelling dress and plain black cloak. On the pier a cheer was given the Duke, in response to which he lifted his hat. The Sun further remarks that :— Until the last week we have never yet had a duke visiting New York, though two royal dukes, those of Kent and Clarence, have favored our Canadian and Nova Scotian nejghbors, and the Duke of Kent ence touched at Norfolk, Va., in a British man-of-war. The Duke and his family kept close within doors last evening. The Duke wrote or dictated the following, which was shown to the various visitors who called to pay him their respects :— Left England May 24; delightful pass- age. Leave to-morrow at 10.30 for Que bec, via Niaga:a Falls and St. Lawrence River, where he will meet the Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise. Returns to England, via New York, July 16.

Ever since the Vanguard, ironclad, was sunk by the Iron Duke she has been a source of danger to the passing vessels, and it has been necessary to station a lightship in the neighborhood, with a view of dimin- ishing the danger. The Admiralty have de- cided upon removing her masts, and to make the work a source of instruction to those employed. They, therefore, ordered the Valorous to proceed to Ports- mouth to embark officers and men with stores from the Verhon, torpedo ship, and to convey them tothe wreck, where tor- pedoes will be used to destroy the masts, —_—_—_—- ++ > The late heavy rains appear to have done a world of good throughout Ontrario, Quebec and some of the North Western States, The grass crop has been immensely benefitted in the Upper Provinces, and grain crops of all sorta have profited greatly. | CONSTANTINOPLE, June 8. | ; NO. 17. a a RYTENSIVE SALE —_OF— persons of good position were) tussophile Min-, BAN KRU PT STOC K, BY AUCTION !
