for the possession of the coveted article,
shabby in appearance and impression,
when shorn ot its historic associations
and significance, was a keen one. The riv-
als were Mr. J. W. Woods, manufacturer,
and Mr. A. Ferguson, barrister, both
strong admirers of the Chieftain. The op-
ening bid was $5, and from that the price
leapt steadily but surely at the alternate
figures, $5 and $1. Few thought the pre-
cious possession would in price pass the
century mark, and when the bidders ex-
pressed in turn their determination to
secure the desk, the excitement ran high.
Exclamations of surprise and conjectures
on the outcome were heard on all sides,
and as the figures climbed steadily up-
ward, the interest in the bidding grew'
space. The desk wa finally bought in
by Mr. Woods for $101. Many .predicted
that it- would in course of years attain
an even higher value.
Considerable interest was also attached
to the Sale ofa complete Indian chiefs
war outif t, presented to Sir John Macdon-
ald on the occaion of his visit to a Cau-
adian tribe, which did him the honor of
making him a full fledged chief. The out-
fit included a bead-embroidered suit of
buckskin, gaudy in color and an unmist-
akably poor fit, bows and arrows, toma-
hawks, whips, leggings, etc. The whole,
after considerable bidding, was knocked
down at $15. -
Every person seemed possessed with a
desire ty obtain something that they
could point to ns being once the proper-
ty of the late Sir John Macdonald.

_he Boers do not understand General
"&_-Carew, and are stated to be naturally
_clout at his incomprehensible pro-
`~ mllings. It was right enough for Boer
Boers who had gone through the pleasant
formality of taking oaths of submission,
and then harboured rifles, sometimes
with men engaged in letting them off at
British troops. General Pole-Carew has
not only been seizing those rifles, but
coznmandeering the adjacent forage and
live stock and burning the outhouses
where provisions useful for the Boer
fighting men were stored. A British gen-
eral who thinks -that an oath is an oath,
treachery treachery, and war war, and

“It is needless to enlarge upon the
dangers of such an innovation, or the ad-
vantages to the Australians themselves,
as to all other citizens of the Empire, of
being able to have recourse to a court ab-
solutely above the suspicion of partiality
on matters which might conceivably
prevoke much local passion. The fact that
the Parliament of the Commonwealth ob-
taing thé. right- to legislate on such
matters as ‘evternal a‘i`airs, the

battle, says:
etween the trenches and the Boer posi-
tion lay Canadian dead and dying. About
5.1!) a wounded man about 5(1) yards away
was seen to _be trying to make for our
trenches under a heavy tire, _but was at
last observed to fall. Now and then be.-
tween the volleys he was seen to wave his
hands as if for assistance. Suddenly from
the left of his trenches a. form was seen to
climb the earthworks in front of our
trenches jumping down to make straight
for the place where the wounded lay,
u.bout90yai-ds from the Boers trenches.
Utterly regardless of the scathing fire
which hissed about him, he ran on and,
at last reached the wounded manhnd
tried to lift him, but it was too late for
the poor fellow had breathed his last.
Seeing it was of no avail his would :te
rescuer walked back over the ground
he had covered, and although bullets
whistled round him and tore up the
ground in every direction, he coolly re-
gained his trenches with a pipe stuck be-
tween his teeth. I have since ascertained
his name was Private Thompson of the
Royal Canadians, and although I do not
know whether his case is one recommend-
ed for distinction or not,'stil1 I have never
during the campaign seen a case of such
coolness and pluck as that displayed by
Private Thompson. Considering the
galling Iire that swept the distance of
_four or five hundred yards which the
covered in his endeavor to reach the
wounded man, also his close proximity to
the Boer trenches, it seems marvellous
that he ever lived to get within four
hundred yards of him, not to mention
getting back without a search. F is case
is one ofthe most deserving of recogni-
tion, coming as it does from _amongst the
ranks of the gallant Canadian Volunteers
by whose side we have fought and march-
