It was shown that the amount of the capi- tal of the Province at Ottawa is practically lerger now than it was in I87S8; that the floating debt of the Province has not been sreatly increased; that nv attempt has been mide either to reduce the L:gislature or to collect the amounts due the Province as by the late ln the face of these facts the Government's eluimed Government, proposal te give away 12 per cent. of the amount due the Land Office, to close up that revenue producing institution, and to fat debentures to the amount 000, is unjustifiable and ruineus. of S185, “Under the Palms.” Tuere was a small audience at the Lyceuin last evening to witness the ren- dition ef the cantata ** Underthe Palms.” This cantata, it may be explained, is in-| tended tu represent the return of the Jews from captivity in Babylon during the reign of Cyrus; the repose of the pilgrimea oa their way to Jerusalem by Ahava River, where they prayed to God for future dir- ection for themselves and their little ones ; and the subsequent triumphant celebration ot the feast of Tabernacles. Notwith- standing the short une in which those taking part have been under Mr. Farnham’s in- structions, and the difficulties that had to be overcome, the €Xercises were given in a manner that retlected great credit upon all, The leading parts were taken by Mrs. A. A. MeLean, Mrs. J. A. Ritchie, Miss Harvie, Miss Lawson, Miss Helen Worth, and Mesars. Davison, Foster, Bruce, Hamlyn and Johnson. There were upwards of a hundied voices in the choruses, with the Artillery Band under the leadership of Mr. J. F Worth, aad organ accompaniment by Miss Fraser. The various solos, duets, quartettes, and chourses were wellsung Attheclose, Mr. Farnham, the conductor, complimented al! who took’ part upon their excellent work, and expressed regret at the smallness of the audience.

There are times and seasons, times of dazzling fitness for evary deed, but there are also captains of hundreds and captains of fifties who say unto one “Go, and he goeth,” and to another ‘‘Come, and he cometh,” and being one of the hundred and not one of the blessed great who may talk at the opera, turn up with the early vege- tables and eat asparagus tips, there was no- thing for it but to go, even gif it was on a journey around the world. But there com: pensations, and one of them is Hagland in June it prevents one thinking of the weeks to be spent doing the tight rope walk on the equator when ones shadow is re- duced to a dise on the ship's deck, and the sun, rising up early in the morning and re- maining overhead all day, makes one long to sit in his bonea to get cool afer sweat- iny like an jece-piteher, ‘At the corner of King William Street the Cansdian eye will see a sight to make hin olow with “pt ide portraits an? pictures, scenes of his own country in the Londoa oftice of the Canadian Pacific Railway. No other factor has been so important as this nstitution in bringing Canada before the yes of the world, and the country has stool the testabundantly. The newest enter- prise of this company has been the most daring. At first it aimed to carry passen- gers across the American continent, and ace complished the task five years before its completion was demanded, Now it has undertaken to carry passengers around the world, and has performed this task with eqaal success. Che steamships Empress of [udia and Empress of Japan have already been des- patched. and the Empress of China will shortly follow. These ships were designed for the route from Japan to British Colum- bia, and are sent around the world to be placed on the route. They are excelled by no ships ail at in point of comfort and con- venience, and are fitted out according to the most advanced ideas in naval construc- tion. The two first ships were crowded with passengers, induced by the low rate of passage—six hundred dollars—by the novelty of the trip, and by the sights to be seen. As an indication of the interest ex- cited in the event, it may be mentioned that when the enterprise was project- ed the Company had applications from one hundred and fifty Eng'ish and. Ameri- can magazines and newspapers for permis- sion to send a correspondent, but the num- ber was 80 great that no concessions ceuld be made, and a private syndicate was fermed to bear the expense. Canadian :ffurs are just now to the front, owing to the death of Sir John Macdonald and the elevation of Sir George Stephen to the peerage as Lord Mount Stephen. The death of the Premier was the one topic of conversation for the time, and the memorial service in Westminster Abbey was attended by all the Canadians in London, as well as by most of the notable peop'e in England. It even absorbed much of the attention created by the great baccarat case. in which the nameot the Prince of Wales was linked with that of aman who was convicted of cheating at cards The state- ment of Dr. Douglass, the father of the Methodist Church in Canada, telegraphed here, that royalty had received no such blow in fifty years, is commended here as true andthe, Prince is hounded by a yelping pack that always follows when royalty is at fault. It was a tine sight, the combat between the cham- pion velitrins of the English bar, Sir Charles Russel, and the man Sir William Gordon-Cumming. who was fighting for all that can make life endurable to a sol- dier and a gentleman. Even the omnibus strike was unnoticed. Thestrike was not an unmixed evil in the quietness and safety of the streets, caused by the ab- sence of a long and ugly procession of chameleon hued caravans. The men com- plained that they were worked for fifteen to twenty hours a day, that they were sub- ject to obnoxious fines, that they were able to instant dismissal, and that they were underpaid; but the truth «f the matter seems to be that the recent intro- ductien of the ticket system prevented the men from supplementing their wages by pilfering from the company. However, they have been granted such demands as were thought reasonable. London in the season is quitea different thing from London at any «ther time, and this is the season, when the Peers of Eng. land pass in procession every evening from four to five, when their sons and daughters ride in the Row every morning, and on Sunday all unite in having a quiet goseip aud walk before dinner. All this one may see for nothing, and it isa sight to make the intelligent foreigner stie--the best and the worst people in England, the worst and the best riders, and nothing but evidences of wealth and distinction. The name Haslemere is perhaps applied to the most notable place iu England. The p'ace is down in Surrey and is the head. quarters for tie summer of most of the literary and scientific people in England. For examp’e, this “copy” is written in the house of Dr. Hu'chinsun the greatest living English surgeon, the ssme in which Tennyson lived before he built his present place over the way.

The new in- cumbent was last evening placed at this division to distribute important let: ters amongst boxes that he possessed no knowledge whatever of, and the result was that the delivery of the letters to the holders of the boxes was inexcusably delay- ed, and in several instances were delivered not through the owners’ own boxes, but at the hands of others who found them in theirs. ‘Therefore, | do not think | use tov strong a comment when I s-y that the conduet of the person responsible for plac- ing the new incumbent where he was plac- ed Was simply outrageous. [ make no charge against the new clerk. He simply had to go where he was put, and he cannot be held responsible for his utter ignorance of the locality of the boxes im which he was required to place the letters and newspapers. Whatl do say, is that he should be shown inthe day time where the boxes are, and who own them, and his p -acticing should be apon Inland ma:la a1 d net upon important mails from Kugland and Canada, letters coming by which re- quire to be answered immediately. { ama subseriberto and reader at the Young Men’s Christian Association, —the letter box of which was unfortunately in the divi-ion alotted to the new clerk, and last night, owing to the lateness ut which the Reading Room papers were placed in the box, it was practically impussible to get even 3 summary of the news before ten o'clock, at which time the room is closed May we, as special favor, ask the Postmaster to take the matter in hand himself and endeavor to arrang- it so. that the newly appointed clerk will get his lessons at such times that no inconvenience will be given the public.
