If thero is any truth at\nall in the rumor mentioned in our\ndespatches this afternoon respecting\nthe uprising in India, one can easily\ncomprehend tho reason of Russia's\nanxiety to iind a casus belli. A\nrebellion in India would tie tlio\nhands of Great Britain nud leavo\nRussia and Germany to work out\ntheir schemes of Turkish division\naccording to their own swoot will.\nIt is probably an idle rumor: we\nhope it may be nothing more.\nOne of the most encouraging signs\nof the times is the spirit of liberality manifested by the general public in cases of great calamities. In\nthe past few years tliis has beeu\nmanifested on several occasions, and\nthe late disastrous earthquake has\nafforded another opportunity. Subscriptions, we are told, have been\npouring in from all sides, and it is\nexpected tliere wiil be no lack of\nfunds to meet every case of real\nwant. When men who have never\nseen' or known each other will voluntarily contribute of their means\nfor the relief of each other's misfortunes, we conclude that the milk\nof human kindness has by no means\nbecome au unknown motive power\nin the world. In modern times\nmen are learning more than ever\nthe. lesson tliat a man is his brother's keeper.\nThe telegraphic reports of the\nlate Belfast riots lead ono to suppose that the Orangemen were\ngreatly to blame for the part they\ntook in that disgraceful aflair. The\nBelfast News puts a very different\nphase on the riots, and, according\nto its statement, the other party\nwas wholly the cause of the disorder. It is most difficult really to\nascertain the facts, but tliere is no\ndoubt that the primary cause of the\nriots, a very peaceable and undemonstrative sabbath-school pic-nic,\nafforded no pretext upon which any\nreasonable person could commit a\nbreach of the peace. The managers of the pic-nic wero so anxious\nto give no cause of offence that\nthey consented to go without a band\nand without banners. It is not\nlikely thnt all the blame belongs to\none party, but Orangemen claim\nthat those who committed outrages\non the Catholics were not Orangemen but common rowdies.\nThe Gull* Ferry.\n* Our friend of tho Nanaimo Free\nPress now undertakes to establish\nthe probability of a railway ferry\nbetween Vancouver ahd Nanaimo,\nand expresses the opinion, that this\nscheme will be carried out by the\nuid of the imperial authorities. The\nfurther the railway lino can be extended, tlie more will it likely benefit the country, but Wo have always\nbeen doubtful of the feasibility or\neconomy of the gulf ferry. Our\ncotemporary says Vancouver Island\nholds the key to the position, from\na military point of view, because\nthe entrance to the gulf could not\nbe defended against an eneniy. On\nthe other hand the Colonist maintains that the \"gates\" can be easily\nand perfectly defended by a battery\nat Victoria uud Esquimalt, and that\nwith this protection tbo gulf would\nbe perfectly safe! These two journals agree on the ferry, because it\nwould magnify the importance of\nthe cities they represent, but they\ndifler widely in their military opinions. If the Colonist's military\ntheory were correct, it would undoubtedly be the most complete and\nconsistent. But it Is conspicuously\nlame, inasmuch as it involves an\nimpossibility. There is not a military authority anywhere whb would\nendorse it, or even suggest it. But\nthe. Free Press, while admitting\nthat the gulf cannot be defended,\nproposes still to place the principal\ndefence on Vnncouver Island, and\nconnect that with the 0. F. 1\". by\nmeans of a ferry. If the gulf cannot be defended, what is to protect\nthe ferryi Does oui-cotemporary\npropose to make it an ironclad ferry,\nana hnve it operated by ironolad\nmen, and. carry ironclad cars on it,\nso that it will be impervious to ihe\ncannon qf tlie enemy? If not, according to his own admission the\nferry us n military scheme is a delusion and a snare, while it could\nnever become a commercial success.\nThe only safe way to extend the\n0. P. It. to Vancouver Island will\nbe by underground tunnel or by\nsome kind of bridge that has not\nyet been invented, so that wo are\nafraid the gulf will continue to\nmark the western limit of that road\nin spite of all editorial efforts to\ncarry it beyond.\nJoseph Beaudln, M.B., Hull, P.Q.,\nwrites: Dr. Thomas' Eclectrie Oil commands a large and increasing sale which\nit richly merits. I have always found It\nexceedingly helpful; I use it In all cases\nof rheumatism, as well as fractures and\ndislocations. I made use of it myself to\ncalm the pains of a broken leg with dis.\nlocation of the foot, and in two days I\nwaa entirely relieved of the pain.\"\nINSURANCE\nNewWestminster City\nDWELLINGS, # percent.\nOUTSIDE OF CITV!\nDWELLINGS, 2 per cent.\nBARNS, \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 3 \"'\nRAND BROS.,\nAGENTS CITIZENS INSURANCE 007\ndwsc2ml ,. /\nGuff Buttons Lost.\nI: OST ON THE S\u00C2\u00BBm AUGUST on the\nj Railway Track somewhere between\ntills City mul Port Moody, a pntr of Cuff\nButtons in a pair of Linen Cuffs.

He is accompanied\nby Mr. Griffith, his companion. He\ntftpocfcs to catch' a Hudson Bay Co.'s\nboat going from Norway House up the\nNelson River to Fort Nelson. This is\nthe manner in which ho hopes to reach\nHudson Bay. His future plans aro\ndetailed below. He looks thoroughly\nin eartiest, and talks like a man with a\ngreat weight on his mind. Mr. Bonnet, of the New York Herald, and Mr.\nErastus Wiman, have provided tho explorer! with ample funds, and many of\nthe leading firms in America have liberally contributed the necessary supplies. All arrangements for the jour-\nney are, thoroughly prepared, except a\nfew stores which will be obtained in\nWinnipeg. They Will go by steumer\nfrom Winnipeg to the head of Lake\n(Winnipeg, and thence. to Norway\n: Howe, near'the source of the Kelson\nRiver. They Will go down the Nelson\nRive* withitne assistance of the Hudson Bay people to Fort York, which\nwill occupy ten days. They will there\nmeet Esquimaux and ho hopes some of\nthe people ho knew before, especially\n' one.of flu former guides and hunters\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2Who was with him during an anxious\nporiod. -Their supplies could not be\nobtained* and for days th6*y were ac- J\ntually starving before the ship arrived.i\nNATIVES ARE FAMILIAtt\nwith the coast as far as Capo Sabine,\nwhere Groely's starvation camp was\nfound. Arrangements will be made\nto liave a provision depot tliere next\nyear. They will probably stay there\nduring the -winter and then push on to\nFort Conger, in Lady Franklin's Bay,\nwhich was Lieutenant Groely's most\nnorthern station, and is situated in\nlatitude 81\u00C2\u00B0 45\ They will then make\na dash for the Pole in sledges, travelling with the natives all tho time, i\nThe colonel has had fivo years' experience in tho Arctic regions of North\nAmerica and Nortii Asia, and is perfectly familiar with the language and\ncustoms of the natives. Thc colonol\nwill, carefully survey the country with\nrespeotto the proposed short lino from\nManitoba to England via Hudson Bay.\nColonel Gildor is not a crank. Rather\nis he a man possessed with that consuming restlessness whicli throe centuries drove bold spirits into all the\nunknown nooks of tho world, seeking\nnew lands or eldorado. He is a newspaper man, backed in his present, as\nin former ventures, by tho iprostigo\nand treasure of tho New York Herald,\nFor that paper he accompanied two\narctic expeditions\u00E2\u0080\u0094that of Schwatka,\nand the \"Jeannette\" relief party led\nby Rogers. In the interests of tlie\nsame paper ho described tho ravages of\nthe cholera in France, and tho ruin\nmade by the earthquakes in Spain.\nWith Lieutenant Schwatka he spent\nthree years in\nTHE ARCTIC! R*feuIONB\nand in that, timo made himself thoroughly familiar with the peculiar difficulties of northern exploration. He\nalso learned the Eskimo language thoroughly, and succeeded in establishing\nentirely friendly relations i with tlie\npeoplo of the region. On these things\nthe success of his present attempt will\njavgoly depend. HiB plan is to perforin\ntlie various stages of the latter part of\nhis journey with the assistance of the\nvarious E&quimo tribes. Theso are\nnot expected to turn tq and help out\n* of pure love. Colonel Gilder carries\nwith him a storo of the articles which\nlio knows are, in those ice-bound countries, most coveted, viz., arms and ammunition, and various implements\nuseful in thc chase or household. In\nreturn for these, he feels sure the, natives will convey him to tho much\nsought-after crown of the earth. He\ncarries next to no provisions. Extraordinary as it appeai-s, it is a wcll-\nauthbnweated fact that tho Arctic seas\nteem with animal life. With the aid\nof his native allies, tho explorer ex-\npeota to support his party on giuno\nuntil the game limit is roached. Boyond that he will depend upon tho\nstores cached by his predecessors. At\nFort Conger, the northernmost point\nreached by whito men, less than 400\nmiles from tlie pole, there lie, safely\nhidden at presont, provisions for\ntwenty-five meii for a year. Supplies,\ntherefore, give tlw? gallant explorer\nlittle concern. Nor has he much more\n' uneasiness about his prospects of securing natives to bring him to his journey's end, for, in all probability, some\nof thom have unwittingly been thero.\nAt any rate, as near to the pole as\ncivilized mon' have gone, they havo\nfound traces of Esquiino in tho round\ncircles of stones, used for securing the\nlowor ends of tho tents carried about\non hunting expeditions. To tlio technically unlearned the sehome looks\nfeasible enough, and it has received\nthe endorsement of high authorities,\nincluding Sergeant Brainerd, of the\nGrteely expedition, who is himself\nshortly to return to the frozen country\non discovery bent. If Col. Gilder does\nreach the polo he is determined that\nhis story of success shall be bolioved.\nIt is probably to this ond that ho has\nassociated with Min Mr. W. R. Griffith, a graduate of Cornell University,\nwho has hitherto dono most of his\ntravelling in tho tropical regions of j\nAfrica, but is, nevertheless, cftger to\nbrave the other climatic extreme.\nColonel Gilder is wise in Ins generation, he\nTAKES NO LIQUOR WITH HIM\nbeyond the verge of civilization; not\nbecauso he is a teototaller, but\" so that\nhis indigenous northorn friends may\nnot be tempted'to possess themiolvos\nof the stock, and thereby lose their\nheads. Colonel Gilder himself does\nuot propose to pass any length of time\nin gathering any scientific data. Frnm\nhis experience he believes it possible\nfor him to plant his foot right-ovev tho\nspot where the pole should stick out.\nHis expedition, wliich in going and returning will occupy throe yoars, is undertaken solely to demonstrate tlie\ntruth of his belief. Once ho gets\nthore, others will not bo long iu fid-\nlowing. He is the more confident of\nsuccess because his project avoids the\nmistakes mado by other sockets. \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 It\nwas upon their own resources that liis\npredecessors relied; he moans to de-\npond >,npou tho skill of the natives,\nin the'management of whom ho expects to find scope for all his tact and\nenergy, leaving natural obstacles to\nbe overcome by. tlieir perseverance,\nstimulated by tho hope of a largo\nreward.\nBIClliCO.\nWholesale nnrl Retail i\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2DRUG GISTS!\nNew Westminster, B. 0.\nmlilOtc \t\nTHE CELEBRATED\nWHITE\nSewing Machine!\nAbsolutely Pure.\nThis powder never varies.
