Mr. Geo. Rue, Colleucor of Cu.-rtoi.n8. has received ofSoial notification of aovaial important changes in the wintry procecduce of merchandise encored for customs duty. 'The Customs Department wir,h the alleged intention of malting, the entry' proceedure ca-iior and simpler, has determined lo make a complete revolution in the form of oatha required to be made by tho importer, , and also by the exporter at the, place of shipment or mauufacture. There is a pretty clear indication that the change has the double purpose or obtaining more reliable values of. the imported articles and thus insure the more equitable payment of custom duties. ' The following is a brief outline of the principal alterations, and which, will come into operation with the opening of tho' year 1399, af:er which , the ,present forms of oaths cannot be accepted : Under the, form of oath at present required to be mu.de by importers on making entry of goods, importers have to swear that the invoice presented at customs exhibits the fair market value-of the goods for home consumption in fcb.3 country whence exported, which is the standard of value for duty purposes in Canada, while in many cases the invoices are based upon special export prices, aud do not represent the fair market value. To meet such cases, and to make the oath fairer to the importer, it has, beon deemed advisable to make a change iu tho form. Under tbe new form, the importer will be required to declare that trie invoice pre&cntea at customs fairly represents the transaction, and that the value shown on the eutry [not on the invoice] ex- ^ ' -t hibiijo the fiir market value of the ' goods whet sold - for home consumption in the- , ... - ^.. country of export. Importers being required to endev their goods at the value a-i sold in the country of export, it is of course neced3ary for them to declaie that such value is the value they have stated in the entry. The department, in addition to this, has prescribed a new form of certificate to be made by exporters on their invoices. At present all the exporter has to do is to write the words \"certified correct\" on the invoice and subscribe to them. Under the new regulation he will be required to certify thaii the iuvoice ia true, and correcn. and that where there h a difference be'.vveeu any of the prices shown therein and the ordinary credit prices at which the same articles are now sold bona iide by the exporter in like quantity and condition for consumption in the couutry of export, the latter prices are shown on the margin or else- wh< re on the invoices. This certiiicate does, uoc apply to goods sold for entry un- d-tr t'-.e preferential tariff until otherwise .^i.ti r.- J, nor does it apply to gooda not he- n;^ inerchaninsv, free good*, or gocrls _,ub- jeut for a 3poc:lie duty.

He dropped one hand carelessly, and inserted it jauntily in his pecker. \"Zounds; but you look like a little, t?srress,\" he exclaimed, admiringly. \"Really, rage becomes you vastly, but it's wearisome, after all, my dear.

I adore you tbo same as thon; I desire to make you happy just tlie same. You havo put a deep gulf between yourself and your home ; you can not go back ; you would go out from here to meet a worse fate, to fall into worse hands. Come, dear, put off that frown.\" Ho mado a gesturo as if to draw her to him.

Not a step nearer the door, my dear; and no more defiance, if you please. You perceive I temper my tragedy with a little politeness,\" ho added, paronthetically. \"I the block.

Suddenly .there was a rush cf feet ard Henry came flying clown, tho whites of his eyes looking as if they would never resume their natural proportions.

This way, sir.\" ' Ho threw open tho door and stepport back. Entering the room, this is what Clarence Yaughan saw: Lying upon tho floor in a pool of blood., tho splendid' form of Lucian Davlin, one arm \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD dripping tho rod life fluid, tho other clasping close the form of a beautlfill girl. His eyes wore closed and his faco . pallid as the dead. The eyes of tho girl were staring wide and set, hor faco expressing unutterable fear and horror, every muscle- rigid as if in a struggle still. One hand was clenched, aud thrown out as if to ward off that death-like grasp, while the ohter clutched a pistol, still warm and smelling of powder. ' ' ' Jfc was tho work of a moment to stop the flow of blood, and restore the wounded man to consciousness. But lirst ho had removed the insensible girl from Diivlin's grasp, laid her upon a bed in the inner room. and. removing the fatal weapon from her hand, instructed Henry how to appiy tho remedies\" a skilful'surgeon has always about him, especially in the city. At the first sure symptoms of slowly returning life, Doctor Vaughan summoned Henry to look after his master, whom he left with rather unprofessional alacrity, to attoud to the fair patient in whoso welfare lie felt so much interest. As he bent over the still unconscious girl, his face was shadowed with troubled thought. She was in no common, faint, and feeling fully assured what tho result would bo, ho almost feared to seo the first fluttering roturn of life. At last a shudder'agitafcod her form, and looking up with just a gleam of recognition, she passen into another swoon, thence to another. Through long weary- hours she only opened her eyes to close them, blinded with' tho vision ot unutterabio woe; aud so the long night- wore away. Dr. Vaughan had given brief, stern orders, in accordance with which Lucian Davlin had en trusted his wound to another surgeon for dressing, and thon, still in obedience to orders, had swallowed a soothing potion and betaken him- shall leave\" the* lady and the promises entirely In your hands, as soon as the crisis has passed. Then, as my presonce might not prove beneficial, while I carry this arm in a sling, at least, I will run down to the country for a few days. My man, here, is entirely at your disposal. Don't spare any pains to pull her through safely, doctor. I will look in again at noon.\" Ho rose, and went softly out of the room, the, doctor having answered him only by a nod of assent. \"Zounds, how weak I feel,\" ho ejaculated. \"I hopo tho girl won't die. Anyhow, I have no notion of figuring at a death-bed scene. So I'll just keep myself out of tho way until tho thing is decided. Then, I'll run down and lot Cora coddle me up a bit. I can explain my wounded arm as the result of a littlo affair at the card-fcable.\" Noon came, and slowly, slowly, stern Death relaxed his grasp upon tho miserable girl, for Death, Iiko man, finds no satisfaction in claiming willing victims, Slowly tho lifo fluttered back to hor heart; and because Death had yielded her up, and to retain it would bo to lose her life, reason forsook her. Under the watchful caro of tho skilled nurae, and the ministrations of tho young physician, she uow lay tossiug in the delirium of fever. Nothing worsa to fear, for days at loast, reportod the doctor. So the afternoon train bore Lucian Davlin away from tho city and his victim, to seek repose and diversion In tho society of his comrade, Cora. \"Sho will come out of this now, I' think,\" ho muttered. \"Then\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDOh 1 I'll tamo your proud spirit-yet, my lady!

I will not?\" His tone of aggressive mockery was maddening to the desperato girl. It lent her a fresh, last impulse of wild, defiant- enorgy. There was not the shadow of fear in her mind or heart now. The rush of outraged feeling took full possession of her, and, for a second, deprived hor of all power of speech or action. In an- othor instant sho stood before him, her eyes blazing with wrath, and in her hand, steadfast and surely aimed, a biny pitsol\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDhis pistol, that ho had taught her to load and aim not two short hours before! He was not a coward, this -man; and rage at. being thtis baffled and placed at a disadvantage by his own weapon, drove all the mockery from his faco. Ho gave a sudden bound. There was a flash, a sharp report, and Lucian Davlin reeled for a moment, his right, arm hanging helpless and bleeding. Only for a moment, for as tlio girl sprang past him, ho wheeled about, seized her with his strong left; arm, and holding hor close to him in a vice-like clutch, hissod, while the ghastly paleness caused by tho flowing blood ovor- spruatl his face: \"Little demon!

Hearing tho pistol shot, and almost simultaneously a heavy fall, Honry hurried through the long passage and threw open the door. Oi.e glance sufficed, and then ho rushed down the stairs in frantic haste. Meanti-me, Clarence Yaughan, punctual to the tisie appointed, had driven rapidly to tho spot- designated by Madeline. He was about to alight from tho carriage, when ho drew back suddenly, and sat in tho shadow as a man passed up the street. It was Lucian Davlin, and ho entered the building bearing the number Madeline had given in her note. Instantly Yaughan comprehended the situation. She had sent for aid in this man's absence, and his roturn might frustrate her plans. Pondering upon the best course to pursuo, ho descended from the carriage, and paced the length of self to other apartments. Henry had summoned a1 trusty nurse well known to Clarence Vaughan, to assist him at the bedside of Madeline. In tho gray of morning, .pallid and interesting, with his arm in a sling, Lucian re-appeared in the sick room. Evidently ho had not employed all of tho intervening time in slumber, for his course of action, seemed to have beon fully matured. \"Sho won't be able to leave hero for many days, I should fancy?\" he half inquired, in a low tone, sinking languidly into a sleepy-hollow, commanding a view of the face of the patient, and the back of tho physi cian. \"Not alive,\" was tho brief but significant answer. \"Not alivo! Great heavens, doctor, don't tell mo that my miserable accident will cost thc little girl her lifo!\" \"Ah ! your accident: how was that?\" bending over Madeline. \"Why, you see,\" explained Davlin, \"she picked up thc pistol, and not being acquainted with tho use of fire-arms, desired to investigate under my instructions. Having loaded it, explaining the process by illustration, she, being timid,' begged me to put it up. Laughing at her fear, I was about to obey, when moving around carelessly, my hand came in contact with that chair, sotting tho thing off. Tho sight O.J my bleeding arm frightened her so that I saw sho was about to faint. As I caught her, I myself lost consciousness, and we fell together. But how will she come out, doctor? toll me that; poor little girl!\" \"She will come out from this trance swoon, to die almost immediately, or to pass through a-fever- stage that may result fatally later. Her bodily condition is ono of unusual prostration from fatigue, ahd evidently sho has been sustaining somo undue excitement for a considerable time. \" \"Beon travelling, and pretty well tired out with ths journey.

If she comes out of this, and you will leave her in my hands, I will, wish tho aid of this good woman, \" nodding toward the nurse, \"undertake tp pull her through. It will be necessary that sho have perfect quiet, and sees no face that might in any manner excite her,' during her illness and convalescence.\" Davlin mused for a rew moments before making answer. He did not care to excite remark by calling in unnecessary attendants. Dr. Vaughan he knew by,reputation was a skilful physician. As well trust him as another, he thought, and it rras no part of his plan to lot this girl die if skill could save her. In answer to his natural inquiry as to how the doctor was so speadily on the spot when needed, Henry had truthfully replied that he knew the medical man by sight, and that, fortunately he was passing when he ran down to tho street for assistance Davlin was further convinced that he, Henry, knew nothing save that the young lady rang for him to show her out, and he, acoording to orders, had obeyed. \"Well, sir,\" Davlin said, at last, \"I [To be Continued.] NAUTICAL TERMS.

Sheffield, Out: Nature's Stiver Works. The process^by which nature forms such accumulations of silver is very interesting. r K ( It must be remembered , that the' earth's crust is full of water, which percolates everywhere through the rocks, making solutions of elements obtained from them. These chemical solutions take up small particles of the precious metal which they find scattered hero and there. , ' Sometimes the solutions in question, aro hot, the water having got so far down as to be set boiling by tho internal heat of the globe. Then they rush upward, picking up the bits of metal as they go. Naturally heat assists the performance of this operation. Now and then the streams thus formed, perpetually flowing hither and thither below ground, pass through tho cracks or cavities in the rocks, where they deposit their loads of silver. This is kept up for a great length of time, perhaps thousands of years, until the fissures of the pocket aro filled up. Crannies permeating the stony mass in every direction may become filled with the metal, or occasionally a chamber may be stored' full of it, as if a myriad hands were fetching the treasure from all sides and hiding away a future bonanza for some lucky prospector to discover.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDPearson's Weekly. k A French statistician has calculated that to shoo tho wholo population of the earth, so far as known, the following number of animals would bo required yearly: Cattle, 345.8S1,3S4; goats, 90,084,- G4S; sheep, 25,482,000; horses,'80.520,000, and kangaroos, 25,000,000.

While in the United States they are emerging from the--spoils system, herein Canada we are acting upon the Jacksonian principle of \"to the victors belong the spoils.\" The signs of the coming political battle are multiplying.

The message of President McKin- ley to Congress on Monday declared the United States must keep its pledges with Cuba and permit it to form a government for itself. Of course the American army will not be withdrawn until the -last Spanish soldier has departed, and its friendly presence no longer required.
