and only 07 in 1883» To Ibis Mr.
W. Van Allan tbe county gaole-
saya:— ■"■•'-.
"In my opinion thu main reason of
tho decrease of arrests in this county
is on account of the suppression of the
liquor truffle. There has been very
little crime in (lie county during the
two last years. Tho number of arrests
during the present year np lo date are
138, but nearly all of these are what
are called tramps, who have been in
jail ovor night, the same as are put in
the lock-up in other towns where there
is one, there being none in this town.
There hnvo been no criminal arrests
belonging to the county this year, and
we have nad an empty gaol for five
weeks excepting a woman in insanity.
But we are now e: peoting three hotel
keepers for violation of the Scull Act;
they are sentenced to two months eaoh,
and warrant, nut for their arrest."

bim' on a motion of ceinph, and
lhey now announce their intention
of wrecking bis Franchise Bill unless
he will dismiss two of his colleagues
for an offence which has no existence
except in imaginations steeped in
■lander. Tf he can persuade himself, as he apparently does, that he
has solved the Irish problem' this
only proves that it is as diBcilt for
unwelcome truth lo find access lo
uncrowned as to crowned kfaia. Of
the responsibility the largest measure rests, not upon the Government,
but upon the selfishness and profligacy of the fac'ions, both Tory and
Radical, in the Houso ot Conmorna.
Bnt the upshot is tbat by io conceivable course of action soulil the
question bave been brought tjnlo a
much more dangerous state tban
that in whioh we Bee l*.at pttsent,
Thai* la a general "prising** the
Cejsia and- Koomo GMtoH'i IfSfcry,
in a spirit of the moat rartco'oiis enmity against British civilization.
Philanthropy may dream and rhetoric may plausibly demonstrate that
this uprising will be quelled, and
that harmony and security will be
restored by the concession of political power to ignorant und half civi
lined people who avow beforehand,
and with unquestionable sincerity,
that they intend to use their votes'
for the destruction of the Common
wealth.. Every mall brings proof
tbat harmony and security are not
likely to be restored till tbe Irish
shall have satisfied themselves by
some decisive lest that irresistible
force is on the side of the Union.

Great B.iUin ia furnished in t>e

with in Scotland, and tlmt Sir Staf-
fovd Noiihcote has received. In

no geneml enthusiasm. E.;tensive
Kirangflmenji wem made for bis
viiu to Eriinbniffb, but the airair
wm only an ordinaly moL'opolitnn
demonstration. At othei points the
name absence of enthusiasm was
noticeable. Crowds wiU not gather
to hear bim, the people wil\ not
demonstrate over tnm. Instead of
being wayla-d with addresses and
oongratn la tions at every corner like
Mr. Gladstone, tbe programme of
Ihe managers of tbe tour hu been
adhered to in every pavtioular And
nowhe e brs he received anythirg in
the shape of a sponinneons popular
reception. The people of Scotland
are overwhelmingly with M«, Gladstone In hit) great e.Toi ts to enlarge
the liberties of the people.—Toronto

Speaking of the I<ish Agitation
ihe Week says; Concilia!fon so far
bat failed. Tlie Lord Lieutenant, a
man endowed personnlly with every
quality whioh csn sommand popularity as welt as rospeot, i« received
whenever be goes with scowls, o?
hatred. The language of the agitators is more venomous thrfu ever;
and Mr. Gladstone, instead of being
spared as a beliefaotor>f* singled out
ua special mark of their abuse.
Thslr gratitude for atl that he hu
done, endured and risked on their
behalf was shown' by voting against
Coast Surveys.
For some time past the question of
a thorough survey of .the route to
Alaska has been agitated. Active
measures have at last been taken, and
in all probability work will ba com*
menced shortly. The American government has bui.' and equipped, a
steamer for the purpose of making
the survoy, and she is now on her
way to the Pacific coast. The Orego*
nion advocates a co-operative survey
of the line, so that the route might be
thuroughly known. It lays: "Now
comes the time for a concurrence of
action between England und America,
with the design of fostering interests
nf importance to both untiuns—interests whioh are yet in their infancy,
but likely to develop into the greatest importance, Not only are there
minus'of unquestioned richness aud
boundless forests of tho most valuable
limber- but the fisheries sre increasing
in value evory dny; and each oaMoo
has an interest in the security of navigation. The British Authorities should
at once begin a survey of the coast
lying between Semiahinoo and the
mouth of the Skeena, wh'ch is the
southern boundary uf A'aska; and
sume way should be devised to have
ihe maps and churls of both Alaska
and British Columbia completed simultaneously. Of course, if ilieru were
uo cu operation botween ihe twu vessels, Ihere would still be lhe English
official map and the American "fttc'al
chart when the survey was completed.
But the beiler way would be, if both
surveys were iu progress at once, lo
ptftce an American officer on board
the British vessel, and vice vena, to
transcribe the bydrogranbic work as far
ns performed, It would lead lo a great
many ■ excellent results, to iho best of
our belief. The British- cherts hnve
always been regarded by mariners as
more thorough than our own; though
why that should be we cannot readily
understand, as the American survoys
have never been hurried or restricted
in their action for wsnt of i. me. And,
perhaps, by an interchange of action
in the manner proposed, wo shall be
enabled to gain equally accurate information for mariners, and in a more
expeditious manner than has heruu ••
fore characterized the operations uf
the American coast survey."

"harvest of the sea," ao far as it is
gathered in Scottish waters, has just
been mode ihe subject of an uflio'al
valuation by the o&icers of the fishery
board, by whom it is eti'inaied as
amounting in money io a tolal sum of
£4,280,242. The larger portion, n little short of £3.000.000, is derived from
the herring fishery, whioh has for a
long period been tho most important
njriut'2 industry of the oounlry. Ilie
haddock Is taken in vast quantities by
thu Scotch fishing boats; 54.1.508 him*
drodwoight wei-e caught during the
last twelve mouths, the cstima.ed value
of the catch being £340.693. The
Scottish oyster-beds, ItLe those in
her locali'ios, havo largely fallen off
ui productiveness, only 3/00 hundreds
of oysters (of 120 each) having betn
gathered from the onco productive
"scalps'* of Scotland. Tho total value
of the shell flab taken is sec down as
amounting to £82,840.

Wednesday Morning, Oet. 15, 1884.
Some Victorians conceived that
the government lots in that city belonged' to the municipality and not
to the government at all. They applied to the courts, therefore, for an
Injunction to prevent tho government sale. The attorney-general
showed very clearly thut the application had no ground either in law
or equity, aiid the application for an
injunction wus dismissed. Bi\t the
government can scarcely be charged
with want of generosity in this matter. Twenty-one lots were handed
over to the city corporation as pnrt
of a proposed park, and 18 others
were reserved for public purposes.
The Victorians ought to have been
satisfied with this surely.
It is not possible to ascertain with
thy exaotness the strength of tbe
independent Republic party in the
United States. It is estimated,
however, that there will bo 45,000
votes controlled by that party in
tbe state of New York alone. These
votes will nearly all be cast for Clove-
land, and will probably enable the
Democrats to carry that state hy a
sweeping majority. If the statements made by, Cleveland's friends
are to be accepted, there seems every
reason to fear that he is guilty of
the immoral chargo which hns been
brought against bim by his opponents. On the other hand it is urged
that-this sin wns committed many
years ago, when Cleveland was
young and foolish, and that a subsequent life of uprightness Bhould be
accepted as sufficient proof of reformation, The contention is not without reason. There can be no doubt
whatever that Cleveland's publio
record is far more acceptable than
tbat of Blaine. There seems to be
strong evidence agaitmt the Kepub-
lican candidate, such as a nation
' having respect for itself cannot consistently ignore.
Telephone War.
Ib A. Graham Bell the original
telephone inventor or is ho not? This
is a question which it seems the
United States courts are just uow
investigating.. Bell obtained patents for his telephone upon the
ground that he was the first inventor, but tho credit which has attached to him for this ingenious and
useful appliance is uow disputed,
It is claimed tbat Daniel Druw-
ba-igli, an obscure genius of Pennsylvania, constructed the first telephone,
and tbat the principle was known to
him long before it occurred to Bell.
The People's Telephone Co. has for
years been making aud renting telephones upon tbe pretext that it had
a right to do so on Drawbaugb's invention. The Bell Co. object to
this, and has commenced action for
an infringement of its patent. This
case enlists a large amount of pub*
' lie interest for two reasons—because
it affects nn instrument so familiar
to the publio, and because it is likely
to be one of tbe most remarkable
cases ever known before the courts.
The Bell Telephone Co. has already
Bpent four years in preparing its
case, and tho two parties have over
500 witnesses. The examination of
Dawbaugh occupied ahout 3 weeks,
and his cross examination took 5.
The court is packed with lawyers,
many of whom are high up in the
profession. It is likely the cuse will
be one of the longest and most
keenly contested ever heard of.
denounce the actions of the government
as criminal in protecting the manufacturer and strangling competition by the
many unfair na vantages derived from
such protection, while the producers aro
taxed iu order, to cheapen the cost of
production; therefore he itt resolved that
the workingnien of Hamilton condemn
the policy of tho government iu allowing the' importation to our shores of
pauper immigrants, and call upon them
to take measures to return such foreign
paupers ns are now in our land, and to
legislate against the arrival of others;
that we demand the recall of the immigration agents and lecturers employed
by the government, and the application
of the money appropriated for their remuneration to some publio work upon
which some unemployed Canadians can
earn their bread; that we especially pro*
test against the introduction Of Chinese
labor in any part of the Dominion, and
call upon the government to send hack
all tho Chineso now in Canada, or enforce such a poll tax as will drive them
hence; that we demand the repeal of all
laws that do not bear equally upon capi-
tal and labor, and tho substitution therefor of such liiwa as will protect the
laborers' rights from the encroachments
of selfish capitalists; that tbe working*
men of Hamilton refrain from giving
support to either of the political parties
in tlie future till such time as they se
cure by legislation uot promises, but
thoir rights.
It is quite evident that tbe agitation against unrestricted Chinese
immigration is extending eastward,
Onr sister provinces have become
aware that it is not British Oolumbia alone that will suffer from the
invasion. Like the Colorado beetle
these people will, if left alone, find
their way to evory province in the
Dominion, oarryiug "with them their
nasty ways and undermining the
legitimate workingmen of the country. When the nation once becomes
aroused, depend upon it the Chinese
"must go!"

The Leaven Working.
Somo time ago. we piiblislioil an
extract from the Toronto Globe
commenting upon the Otiineso quos-
tion in view ol tho demonstration
which waB ahortly to be made at
Hamilton, Ontario. In tliese comments 'the Globe discussed the question very' fairly, and maintained
that the timo had arrived when
I! some action should be taken by
the Dominion government to remove or mitigate the evils of
Chinese immigration. This wns
very encouraging to the people of
British Columbia, for the Globe is
i undoubtedly one of the most powerful and influential organs in Canada. The Hamilton demonstration
has taken place, and here is one of
resolutions which found unanimous
'approval and passed without a dissenting voice:
Wh.HU tlie system of importing pau-
Sr md Chinese labor to this country by
. several departments of the Dominion
ol Canada doe. not in any way protect
the Industrie, of our country or increase
tbe wealth of tne producers, but the importation of pauper and coolio labor, in
an already glutted market, bring, and
. iatnaate poverty and its attending evils..
The enforcement of labor contracts mule
in fonlgii countries, detrimental to the
Interests of wage-earner, of Canada,
will result lu a degrading competition
that will break the noble spirit of labor
and leader our slavery unbearable. We
For somo time tho opposition
newspapers in this province have
been howling because, thoy asserted,,
the government was giving away nil
the public lands. The Kootenay
bill, the island luilwny agreement,
tho Peace River surrender, the Kaglo
Pass contract, and numerous minor
matters were put forwurd ns examples of the "giveaway policy"
now prevailing. This kind of cry
might have some merit in it if it
could be defended upon any principles of publio polioy, or if tho assertions so recklessly made hnd been
founded upon fact. It is not possible for us yot to estimate with any
precision Ihe effects of the Kootonay bill. It has thus fur resulted in
attracting a good denl of attention
to a portion of tho provinco which
is supposed to be vory wealthy, bnt
which was almost absolutely unknown. The company which has
undertaken to open up and develop
this region in consideration of tho
privileges granted may mako a fur-
tuno or lose' one. tfhey must tnko
the risks, and in any case the coun
try gains a substantial benefit. The
results of the settlement bill are
more apparent Tlie railway lands
in tliis district have been nearly .ill
taken up, the dry dock has been
taken over by the federal govern
ment, and the construction of the
island railway is in actual progress.
All these things seriously affect the
province, and affect it for good.
Both tho mainland and the island
feel the stimulating influence of expanding industry and increasing
business. Beyond the editor of the
Standard nnd his representative in
this city we doubt if tharo could bo
found in this province a man who
would he rush enough to assert that
it would be an advantage if tlio
province went back to the condition
it occupied in tho beginning of 1883!
Since that timo the country has
made mure solid progress than it
made during the preceding ten years.
It would be absurd to claim all this
progress ns due to the government
polioy, but thero is very little doubt
but thnt policy had a great deal to
do with it. But the organs aro just
now engaged iu a very different kind
of-cry. They aro denouncing tho
govornment with characteristic venom because it would not give awny
tho minerals in the railway belt,
and because it would not give away
its city lots in New Westminster
and Victoria. Tho Dominion government claims that the conveyance
of land carries with it the minerals,
while the province maintains that it
doos not—and theso very organs ox-
press the greatest anxiety to Bee tho
Dominion government winl This is
patriotic, surely; and it is consistent, tuo, because theso organs would
not bu consistent with their record
unless they were chargeable with
inconsistency!

What is thk Matks I—Lut even
ing the tug Pilot, with Captain Revely
on board, started for the Sand Heads
lighthouse, Fraser river. Hia sudden
departure for that place is explained
u follows : On Tuesday lut, when the
steamer Princess Louiae left New
WeatfninBter for this port, ahe took on
board a man whose name we are unable to learn at present for the lighthouse above mentioned, and on arriving at it the keeper, with his assistant,
took the mail off in an open beat.
Since that date the light hu not been
aeen by vessels passing that way, nor
by partioB who were accustomed io see
it from the shore. As a heavy, sea was
running and a strong wind blowing
when Ihe boat left the .learner, it is
supposed she wu swamped in the
breakers on the Sand Heads and that
the men wore drowned. This belief ia
strengthened by the fact that the
blocks and tackle for hoisting the boat
out of reach of the waves have boen
dangling loosoly in the wind ever since,
—Standard of Mondesi. The man
who went down on the Louise wu Mr.
Fruer, brother of the lighthouse
keeper.'
Many forget that the hair and scalp
need. cleansing u well as the hands and
feet. Extensive use of Ayer's Hair
Vigor lias proven that it is the best
cleansing agent for the hair—that it
prevents as woll ess removes dandruff,
cools and soothes the scalp, and stimulates the hair to renewed growth and
beauty. .

Maple Ridge, Oct. 13.—-Land slips
are tho order of the duy. Thu railway
along the river is submitted to a severe
test. Such a continuous down pour
of rain haB not occurred boforo in the
memory of tho oldest inhabitant Tho
"glorious" climate is spoken of in
ironic terms by many of the now arrivals. Some are speculating on tlio contrast in the weathor of B. C. nccording
to Professor Proctor's estimate fifteen
million years hence. The contract for
building the road across Pitt meadows,
is awarded to Mr. Goorgj Swan for $35
a chain. The difficulty of exit for the
settlers of that locality is at Inst solved.
The rival claims pf Stephons and Wilson were' settled last week by arbitration. Both claimed to have a prior
right to a government lot in township
12, The decision was given in favor
of Wilson. Those who on iny the "light
fimtustio" are looking forward to a
jolly time noxt Wedneaday evoning in
the Westcott House where a free ball
and supper will be givon by tho enterprising proprietors. Tho literary society will discuss again on Saturday
evening the merits and demerits of the
execution of Charles I:
Dominion and Province.
Within the prwl few day* an notion
in tho Supremo Court has been oom*
meiicod against the Chiof Commissioner at the suit of ths Attorney General
of Canada, the object .of which is to
prevent the provincial government
issuing orown grants of thoso lands
within the railway belt which, previous
to the Settlement Act, had been preempted or purchased by individuals.
Tho scope of tho action is wide enough
to embrace other questions, ob, for example, the right to the precious metals
and the sovereignty of tho lands within the railway belt. The writ asks for
a declaration that Hur Majesty is entitled to these lands, i. fi., Her Majesty
at represented by the- Dominion, and
further seeks an injunction against the
Chief Commirsioner, which we take to
mean an effort on the part of the Dominion to osUblish a sovereignty ovor
theso lands as distinguished from a
mere ownership of them in tho churuc
tor of trustees for railroad purposes.
We un willingly refrain from discussing
the merits of thia case, because, though
the matter is now launched beforo the
court, it is a subject, not of the ordinary ownership of the land, of whioh
there can bo no little dispute; it is of
far deeper interest j it involves the
right of sovereignty, of escheat, of precious metals, of right of way and of
water, and a host of cognate subjects.
The case is replete with considerations,
vitally affecting provincial rights, and
while abstaining from the discussion of
them we desire to inform our readers
of the litigation in which the Dominion
has embarked. Incidentally another
question arises, the power of tho supreme court to interfere, by injunction,
with the functions of the executive.
It is not to be wondered thut the Hon.
Mr. Drake, who has been retained by
the Dominion government, feels himsolf compelled to retire from the cabinet. It could not be otherwise. We
shall endeavor to furnish the public
from time to time with u faithful and
impartial report uf the proceedings before the court, being assured such proceedings will he of the greatest interest.— Colonist.
Police Court.
Before W.Norman Bole, Esq., P.M., anil
W.D.PerrlB,Es('.,J.P.
On Monday, Donnley, charged
with vagrancy,- was called. Chief
Constable Wiggins testified that prisoner had been playing the "idle dodge'
for some time past. He was well
dressed and had no visible means of
living. He considered him to be a bad
character. Police Magistrate Bole
said these well-dressed loafers were as
a general thing the worst kind of vagrants and were deserving of good sound
penalties; so that, in the light of the
evidence before bun, he imposed a fine
of $25 and imprisonment for throe
calendar months.
Charley Smith was brought before
the Court, charged with vagrancy, to
which charge he pleaded guilty. He was
given one month's imprisonment.
The next case called was J. S. Clute
vs. George Williams, charged with maliciously and intentionally breaking
windows in the residence of Mr. Clute,
in the latter part of July last. The
Court advised Mr. Williams to compromise the matter with Mr. Clute, stating that boys' testimony was generally
unreliable and contradictory, and in
the event the case went against him,
the penalty might demand a committal
of the defendant to jail, which would
be very humiliating to say the least.
Mr. Williams said that from what he
knew of the affair he had good reason
to believe his son innoceut of the
chargo, and believing this, he did not
intend to throw money away in compromising u case which he thought unfounded; he would lot the law take its
course.
J. S. Clute testified that the house
was unocoupied, and the damage done
to the property by Gordon Williams
and his playmates waa estimated by
Mr. Scoullar, glazier at the Royal City
Planing Mills, at $39.33.
Horry Wert testified that he, iu com
{tany with Gordon and George Wil-
iauis and Harry Parsons, in the latter
part of July, went up to Mr. Clute's
houso and broke sume of the window
glass, nfter whioh they ran away.
George Williams was sworn and testified that he was at sohool on the day
that the deed.was committed. He
saw the windows were broken ou Saturday, and he attended school every
week-day; said he first saw tho broken
window gloss on Saturday when going
after water.
The Court said tho boy's testimony
was very unreliable -and conflicting;
Mr. Ferris said Mr. Williams must
have boen misled by the boy's statement to him; tho evidence iu the case
was very strong.
Robert Parsons was sworn and testified that he in company with George
and Gordon Williams and Harry Wert
did in the latter part of July last break
tho gloss in the windows of Mr. J. S.
Clute's houso.
Mr. Ferris informed Mr. Williams
that at this late stage of the case tho
Court would givo him an opportunity
to compromise. Mr. Bole Baid it was
a wretched thing to bring children into
court. Their testimony was so unreliable that they made a farce of a case.
Mr. Williams said that he thought
with the witnesses he could produce
he could fully substantiate the boy's
innocence; but since the evidence was
against him he thought he had better
accept the compromise.
The Court then imposed a tine of
85; costs of court, $0.50; and $8,
damages ou Mr. Clute's property; total, $22.50; and in default of payment
oue month's imprisonment.
J. S. Clute vs. Gordon Williams,
charged with maliciously breaking window glass in Mr. Gluto's residence in
the latter part of July lust, to which
charge Mr. Williams plead guilty for
his son. The Court thon imposed a
tine of 50 cents and damages on the
property of Mr. Clute of $8; total,
$8.50; or in default of payment, 14
days' imprisonment.
Ontario Bribery Commission.
Tobohto, Out, 2.—The Bribery Commission met this afternoon. Hon. Mr.
Mowat was examined at length by Mr.
MoMaster. He said his information as
to bribery wob obtained iu n general way
from his colleagues. Uo left the conduct
of matters entirely to them, and, though
he was prepared to accept a share of the
responsibility, he could give very little
information. So other witnesses wure
examined.
Toronto, Oit. 3.—Hon. Mr. Hardy
wns examined before the Bribery Commission this morning. He emphatically
denies that he ar any member of tlio
government had deputed McKim or Balfour to endeavor to entrap Bunting. Tlio
government had placed Bunting ou a
piano with other offenders, and were
anxious to punish all. He told nothing
that has not already been made publL-,
Toronto, Oct. 4^-At to-day's session
of the Bribery Commission K. J. Vicars,
a strong Conservative, swore that a few
nights previous to the exposure of the
Slot in the house, Messrs. Fraser ami
lardy passed him on the street and he
heard Hardy remark; "H our littlo
Bchome with Balfour works we will fix
them," Hardy and Fraser entered the
box and gave the statement nu unqualified denial. Tlie latter said it wat: a lie
from whole cloth and promised to look
un Vicar's antecedents. The commission
adjourned until Monday, when Messrs.
Bunting and Meek will call witnesses in
their own defense.

City Conncil.
Council met on Monday night, His
Worship the Mayor in tho chair; present, Councilman Elliott, Johnston,
Hendry, Curtis, Cunningham nnd
Henderson.
Communication from Chief Engineer Fire Department received, in
reference to reception of steam fire
engine and recommencing that the
present quarters be enlarged enough
to accommodate both engines, and not
thinking it advisable to form a new
company ns enough men could be detailed from .the present company to
equip hoth engines.
The Chief Engineer of the department reportod 58 active members on
the roll.
Councilman Curtis said he thought
the Chief'Engineer's report iu regard
to the number of active members was
a farce and was over-estimated. To
his certain knowledge several of those
whoso names wore read by the clerk
wure not and never had been active
members. Ho thought it proper to
exempt only those who turned out and
earued by active servico the title of
"active member."
Coun. Johnston said those who paid
the annuel fee of $3 were enrolled as
active members, whethor or not they
rendered services to the company.
Moved by Coun. Johnston, seconded
by Coun. Curtis, that tho report of the
Chief Engineer be accepted. Oarried.
Coun. Curtis thought it was a mistake of the council to receive tenders
for the sale of the oity lots in a lump
sum. He said that where the eity allowed a certain percentage of the proceeds of the sale to the auctioneer it
stimulated him to get all he could for
the property, because the city's gain
would be his gain; tnd evon though
tho seller made more on percentage,
the advanced price he would bring in
the sale of the city property in thia
way would compensate the city tenfold for the extra amount paid the'
auctioneer. ,
Moved by Coun, Cunningham, seconded by Coun. Johnston, 'that the
previous motion be rescinded, and that
tenders be called for on a percentage;
tenders to be handed in at the next
regular meeting of the council. Carried. >
The following accounts were presented: Columbian, $40.98; R. C.
Planing Mills, $36; D. L. Smith,
$107.50; Woods & Turner, $97.50;
Dominion Saw Mill, $122; T. R.
Pearson & Co., 50 cents; Jas. Cunningham, $8.39; Wm. Rae, $9.
The finance committee presented a
report of receipts and expenditures for
September, showing a balance of $477
iu the treasury.
Mr. Corbould instructed the city to
sue W. J. Armstrong at once, to recover the arrears found to be due on the
lease of water frontage, The eity solicitor advised the counoil to pursue
this course at * once and savo further
controversies, .
Moved by Coun. Henderson, seconded by Coun. Johnston, that the clerk
inform Archie BurnB that the water
frontage property which he applied for
a lease of iB n<4 on lease. Carried.
Ou motion, it was resolved to call
for tenders for printing 000 forme of
agreement and 300 forms of conveyance.
It was resolved to change place of
sale of city property from tlie counoil
chamber to the court house.
On motion, it was resolved to move
all Indians from oity streets ond
squares,
Coun. Hendry stated that the pres*
ent ferry system was giving very poot
accommodation in rotation to the handling of neiglit. They would not re*
cuive freight fr.nn their wharves on
either side of the river or unload it
from the boat. Shippers in order to
insure the delivery of goods were obliged to accompany them, and pay fare
both ways. He thought something
ought .to be done to improve this very
inadequate means of transportation.
His worship stated that he heartily
coincided with Coun. Hendry in regard
to the wretched system of ferry trans*
portation. This having to load and
unload your freight on either shore of
the river, and pay your way besides,
was ridiculous in the extreme. Some
arrangements ahould be made with
the owner of the ferry to form a
schedule of freight rates which would
justify them in handling freight.
Council adjourned.

Fraudulent Transactions.—There
are many frauds perpetrated in medicine,
and many advertised remedies worse
than useless. Not so with Hagyard's
Yellow Oil. It remains as ever the best
internal and external medicine for all
rain, soreness and injuries with whioh
human flesh is afflicted.
Maple Bldge Council.
Council met on the Sth inst.; all the
members preseut. A communication
from Turner, Beaton k Co. was read,
asking permission to build a wharf and
shed on municipal property at Port Hammond, The clerk was requested to answer the same. Angus Morrison was
allowed to work one day on road as der
sired by him. It was resolved that the
C. V. It. Engineer be informed of the
obsti notions on road in front of Mr.
Hindi's property. The Bum of $15 was
granted to open a ditch east of Mr,
Cook's farm, township 12. The council
unanimously endorsed the prayer of a
numerously signed petition asking the
provincial government for a grant to extend tho town. line northward and the
Kanaka oreek road eastward. The following bills were ordered paid: C. P. N.
Co., 1.1 (froight); Joseph Stephens, $5

Adelaide to bring visitors from below.
We are likewise under great obligations

Rond Work.
Editor Columbian.--I soe that $600
has been appropriated bythe government
for the Johnston road, and it is being
spent ou men hired by the day to work
on the road at $2.30 per day and board.
Mr. Johnston mid his two sons, with
two other men, arc doing the work, and
Mr. Johnston has charge of the job.
lHow, does not everybody know that
good men cau be got at this time of tho
year tor just about ono half of that pay?
I think the work should be stopped and
the rest of tho money spent by lotting a
contract, so that every one would have
a chance to bid on it. It is shameful
how gover ment money is being thrown
awny in this municipality by employing
men to do road work by the duy. 1
hoar that the money appropriated for
tho- Semiahmoo road from Mud Bay to
Bemiahmoo Bay is to be spent in the
same way. This Is a shame, and I hope
the citizens of Surrey will hold a meeting and protest against such m waste of
thoir appropriations.—Yours, fto.,

of tlie first Arab invaders, who found
their way to Ohina about tho tenth
century. They bave not preserved
tho faith of Mohammed in a high degree uf perfection, and in externals of

discontented. The Ohinese, although

A REMARKABLE STORY,
It was no more than Harry's second
or third visit when she pointed him
out to her mistress walking past in Iub
summer-morning suit, whioh the long
evenings permitted a young man to
retain while daylight lasted and he
could be about. Harry waB very
carefully got up; he wore light clothes,
and ties of the most interesting description. Ho bad always the stick
which was iu fashion, the hat of the
moment: and a very pleasant sight ho
was, striding along in the summer
-evening, going where love carried him,
with honest intentions und a simple
heart He was not perhaps capable of
a very refined or poetical sentiment.
He had at that time no doubt what
ever that Hester would accept hiin
gratefully, not so much for himself
(in whioh point ho hnd on instinctive
humility), but for tho good things he
florid give her. The glamour and lhe
thousand little enchantments of lovo
were not in him, but he was honest
and true, ns Hester hud said. He
meant tliis poor girl, whom most poople, in Catherine's drawing-room and
elsewhere, passed i.y without notice,
though some thought her pretty—he
meant her, as his wife, to bo a happy
and much-honored woman. And what
was more, he meant to be good to his
mother-in-law. He. might have boon
a romantic paladin, or a man of genius
and not have been so excellent, so
worthy of atl admiration as that. It
never occurred to Har.,; to go another
way, to conceal what he was about
from prying eyes. He jvas not
ashamed of what ho wa3 about. All
the world misht watch his sieps so
far as he cared, and it must have required a distinct effort on tho p-rt of
any holiest heart not to liko tho ni'*ht
•f him aa he went a-wooing and wish
Mm a happy ending. Perhaps it
would be too much Lo say lhat Catherine made that effort, but she wna
not favorablo to Harry as to his cousin
who was under hor own roof.
It is scarcely, possiblo for any eyes
hut* those of a parent (nnd even the
eyes of a parent are not always impartial) to look upon two young candidates for favor with exactly the same
sentiments. If it is too much to say
that one will be loved and the other
hated,, at least the balance wilt be unequal. Edward bad found means
from the beginning to please Iub patroness and relative. He had been—
is not this the grand reason?—so good:
he had been ready at her service when
she wanted hiin, he had stayed at
home, he had been son snd daughter
to the lonely woman. All that she
knew of him was excellent, and she
had no reason to imagine there was
anything to know which was not
equally good.
Catherine was one of tho poople
who say tbat they do not Iook for
gratitude. If Edward had not appreciated the bindnesi which picked him
up as it were from the roadside, she
would hut havo laughed, she would
not have shown either surprise or pain,
hut the fact that he did feel her kindness, and devote himself to her,
touched her deeply. She was as well
off as if he had beon her son—far better off than many mothers with hoiis.
But Harry was veiy diil'oront. For a
long timo she had made up her mind
that Harry was her great failure. He
and liis sister had nevor attempted to
attach themselves to Catherine. Thoy
had 'considered their elevation to tho
White House and the honors of tlio
bank ns owing tu their own merits,
and had set up a sort of heir-apparont
establishment always in opposition,
With tlio luitu.-iU instinct of a woman
she had concluded it all to be Ellen's
f'iuK; hut Harry had not tlie good
sense to separate himself from hiB sister, oc even to imply that ho did not
support her iu her proceeding; -far
from that, ho stood by her with the
utmost loyalty. Though he never was
anything' but deferential aiid respect'
ful in Irs dull way to his benefaoiress,
he never would allow it Lo be supposed thnt he did uot approve of his
sister and hook her up. If Catherine
saw the .merit- of tliis faithfulness it
waa in a grudging wny; and, ai a matter of fact, Bhe did not like Harry.
There was nothing in reality to find
fault with him. He was very .steady
at his business, not withstand in1; the
rival claims of cricket in summer aad
foot-ball in winter. Aud when he
was asked to dinner at the Grange, be
was as punctual ns clock-work, with
nn expanse of shirt-front that would
have heen a credit to any man.. But
he did not please Catherine. He had
given her a reproof which stung, on
that occasion when he ''took down"
Mn, Jo'i.i, without waiiing to knew
what porso-i of importance should
have gone before. .Nothing that could
have been said would have sturgCatherine so muoh as that good-natured
net, and it was all the more hard upon
her that in her hearl (always a good
and generous one) she approved Har-
if. It was a reproach to her, and
still more, it was n reproach to Edward, who had never tfken the slightest notice of Mrs. John's presence,
but left her among the neglected ones.
Catherine had been doubly an^ry with
Harry ever since that evening, bhe
would not allow even tlmt he was a
handsome fellow.
"He is big enough," she would say,
resenting the fact that he was a head
taller than Edward, nud twice as
strong. "He is a fine animal, if you
like, but I don't see how a man with
white eyelashes oan be considered
handsome."
Edward did not appose his aunt in
this any moro than In other things.
"I allow," he would say, "that ho is
not defer." But ho shook his head,
u one who would deprecate a too true
accusation when Mu Vernon held
Harry up to ridicule. "No, he is not
derer; he will never set the Thames
oa fife," Edward said.
Miss Vernoh uw Harry pa-athe
third time he went to the Vernon;.',
awl afterward she looked for him regularly. "Who wai it for?" she asked,
- with an ardent feminine appreciation
of tha unly motive which oould induce
i man to hurry over his dinner and
Eat to the Vernonry in turn for the
amble communiiy's tea. This wai a
question not very hard to answer,
seeing that the next moment sho nil-
■ did to henelf, "Who else could it
bit" It could not be Matilda, or
Martha, who. were neither young nor
fair. It wu very unlikely to bo Mrs,
Reginald, though she was young enough, and not without beauty. "But
Harry ft not the man to burden him-
emit with A lot of children," said Calh-
eiln-t, with an unnecessary scoff at the
poor follow who wu not her favorite.
Thus there wu only one person whom
it could be. It gave her a sort of
fang itl amusement when she con-
eluded upon this—Heater! that proud,
troublesome creature—she who would
avrar give in, who put on tho airs df
iprlnoM in tha Orange drawing-io >m
and declined to go to suppar—she
with the spirit of a revolutionary and
the temper of a-—demon—(no, no,
this was perhaps too bad—the temper of a—Vernon, Catherine Baid to
herself with a laugh)—she to fall to
the tot of Harry! This was bo strangely funny, so paradoxical, so out of
character, that it amused Catherine
altogether beyond description, yet
gave her a strange blow. What a
ridiculous combination! If the world
had been ransacked for two who ought
not to come together, these two would
bo that pair. What would they do
with etch other? how could they ever
pull together—the one atl eagerness
and vigor, the other stolid and heavy?
Catherine was almost tempted to be
sorry for the girl, but the next moment she laughed again. Oh, it was
easy to understand; Mrs. John must
have managed it all. She would see
in it a way of recovering all hor lust
glories, of getting back her. footing
in that ridiculous White House, which
hnd boen adapted to her silly taste
from the oe^inning. Oh no doubt it
was her doing! She would talk the
girl ovor; sho would persuade her into
it, "with a host of petty mii::ims
preaching down a daughter's heart."
A id it waa with a gleam bf vindictive
amusement that Catherine assured
horsolf that Mrs, John would find
herself mis wkeri, AfU*r sho had
made the marriage she would bo left
in tho lurch, lliu.y was not a man
to put up with n mother-in-law. Thus
Catherine Vernon, though she wns a
clever woman, misconceived and misunderstood them alt,
But yet it did give her a natuiat
pang, 'i'hat girl, who compelled her
attention somehow, though Bhe had
no favor for hor—who inspired her
with a certain respoct, notwithstanding the consistent opposition to herself which Hester had always shown—
to think of that ambitious creature,
all (ire wid li"u being quenched in the
dul'less of Har.,', put out'in the
hcivy tr..uqnilily of-his athletic existence—to score at cricket matches
and spend long, wearisome days out
in Iho sun, watching for the runs he
got? But then sho would be well off,
would hi.ve the White House and all
sort of good things. Oh, no occasion
to bo sor j for lier. She would get
her compensation. And then Catherine thought, with n jealous displeasure
which she felt lugry with herself for
entertaining, of tho arrangements
which Harry's -marriage would make
necessary. Up to this time he hnd
more or less held his position at her
pleasure, but she had no reason, she
was aware, to refuso Lo satisfy alt her
engagements and make liim actually
independent, as he had been virtually
for a long time buck. Sho would not
have the slightest excuse for doing it,
Everything had gone ou perfectly well.
Thero were no complaints of him at
the bunk. Tho business flourished
nnd made progress, But the thought
that Hester would be thus immediately placed on a Bort of equality with
herself, aud Mrs. John reinstated,
vexed hor. It was a mean sentiment,
but she could uot help it. It vexed
her in spito of herself.
The news had been, it ia scarcely
necesBti y to Bay, communicated to
Edward nt n very early stage. Miss
Veinuii hud called him to her, aftor
dinner, as soon as he came up-stairs
to the drawing-room, to the window
from which tho road was visible winding nlong the side of tho Common to
Iho Vernonry.
"Bo you see that?" Bhe said, pointing his cousin out.
What? He saw the Common lyin*j
in all Us sweetness, it3 roughness and
undulations standing out in the level
sunset rays, every btnh casting a
shadow. Ho wns you is*, and ho had
at least & scientific lovo of nature, and
longed to be out poking into those
beds of herbage, feeling tho fresh air
on his faco; and it wns with it secret
grudge in his heart tliat he realised
tlio difference between the light,
string figure moving along buoyant
with lifo and liberty, aud he himself
in his ovening clothes in his aunt's
drawing-rnnm, seeing it ull from within four walls.
"Wlmi(" he Biiid, thinking that he
would mi her not see tho fair uut door
evening world since he could havo no
Bharo iu it. "Why—is it Harry?" and
wiien he felt lhat he hated tho follow
who was his owu master.
"He is going a-wooiug," Miss Vernon snid,
She wns silting in her favorite place
which oomm'-nded thia prospect, tie
Common, the Vernon ■„*, the UM pities,
and the red bprs of, ihu sunset behind.
The sunset was hor favorite eole.-laiu*
ment, and in summer she always sat
hero. Elwnrd stood behind, looking
over hor head. She dirt not see ihe
grimace with which lie heard ilicse
words, Aud he did not reply for some
time. Ii. g,ivo him a shuck more s'mrp
even than that which Catbe-hie herself
hnd felt atfivsr, though to be sure thore
was no rcsoii why.
"Ah!" he mid, indi-ferentlv, "who
can lie find to woo .wound here?1' Initio know ve ,' weU in his heart what
tho answer would be.
"Oiily one person so fnr as I cr.u
make out. It must be that girl of
Mrs. John's, I suppono she <s what
you call prol.y, though she hns nover
boon a favorite of mine.
"Rut yini em't tontine preltineas lo
your favorites, Aunt Catherine," said
Edward, wiih n sharp smile which ho
hod somotimes.
"No, that's true. I deserved thst
you should hit that blot. She is
pro'ty.I know. Poor Ha.ry, lie will
hnve his hands "ull, what with the
mild mother nnd the wi'd daughter.
I wonder at the girl, though. She is
an ambitious, energetic thing, and
poor, doar Harry wilt never set the
Thames on fire, as you sny."
"Did I spy it? No, I don't think
he will; but ho has solid nualilies."
"Very solid—the White House and
his share in the bank. Oh, there wit)
ho an equivalent! Ard to iXvnk Ihni
Hltle schemer, that soft lit.le woman
thnt looks us if she could not hi-rm a
fly, should hnvo mannered to secure
herself in th>s cunning way nud get
her daughter bne1. to the point she
slartod from! Who would have
thought it? There is noihingso as*
tute as simplicity."
Edward mnde no reply, aim this
was a thing Miss Vernon did not liko,
She required a'response. Silence felt
like disapproval, aud as there was a
strong, silent protest in her heart
against oveiylhiiig that wm mean or
potty in whnt she said, she wus apt to
resent this want of acquiescence nll
tho more. She lookod book at him
whon he did not o:;pecl It, and was
startled to see a took she hnd never
seen before—a look that astonished
hor—on h<s face. It was something
like a snarl of coutompt and despite,
hut it disappeared in a moment, and
sho could not holieve her eyes.
