Tho day generally was accepted as a holiday, little if any business being done. Everybody talked til everybody else about the great meeting whtch wss to open in Convention Hall at noon. As early ns 8 o'clock small groups began to gather around tlie vast building, but it was not until nearly two hours later that those who wore fortunate enough to possess tickets found their way to the place and entered the hall. Shortly after this the sound of music and tramp of many feet signalled the ap- ?roach of bands and uniformed clubs, he groups, which by this time had swollen to an immense crowd, became enthusiastic and gave vent to oheering and applause, whioh was manifested as the various delegations and men of prominence arrived. Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, was ono of the earliest of tho notables to arrive, and his appearance was greeted with renewed applause. He was followed by tho Cleveland club of Buffalo which entered tho hall with the band playing "Dixie." Shortly before noon Collins, of Massachusetts, who is to be the permanent chairman, quietly msde his way down tho aisle. The galleries by this time wore filled with spectators, many ladies being among them. The entranco of different state delegations with their handsome banners wss met with long applause. By noon everyone was roused up to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. It wss after half-prut twelve whon Chairman Barnum, of tbo national committee, called the convention to order. Lieut.-Govornor Whito, temporary chairman, waa presented and delivered t stirring addross. Mr. White said that the experience of the last fonr years hsd demonstrated that the charges brought by the republican party were unwarranted and that the peoplo were right in demanding snd cc mpelling a radical change. He then paid a high tribute to the ability, trustworthiness, and statesmanlike qualities' of Cleveland and said: "For years it has been gradually conceded that it was necessary to reform tariff. Therepub' lican party, whilo not denying the necessity for reform, has ever failed to suggest any remedy, and uniformly thwarted the efforts of the democracy to afford the necessary relief. If the tariff had not been modified it is because of republican obstruction." In conclusion the speaker said the election of Cleveland is demanded by tho patriotic sentiment of the land, and that if democrats do their duty the republican party will be unable to retard the progress of country. Senator Gormsn, Maryland, moved the nil call of states. As the names were culled tbo principal leaders reoeived applause. The list of committees were; then officially announced. At 2 p.m. it was voted to take recess until 10 to-. morrow morning. Preseualln aad Address. evening a goodly number of mechanics and workmen employed in the sash and door factory of the Royal City Planing Mills wsited on Mr. Thos. W. Kerr, at his residenos, to present to him a fine silver watoh, pitcher and salver and a silver butter dish aa a token of their appreciation of' his just aud fair dealing with them, This gift wss presented on the occasion of Mb resigning bis position aa foreman for the company—a position which ha has held and filled with the greatest fidelity for the greatest portion of ten yeara. Tho pitcher was presented by Mr. Russel Smitber, who, on behalf of his fellow workmen, delivered the following address: To Thos. W. Kerr, Esq.:—Wetheuri- dcraigned employees of the sash and door factory of the Royal City Plaining Mills hearing with regret of yonr departure from among us and wishing to give you some token of our appreciation of tbe . kindness and courtesy that has marked your dealings as foreman with nl, take this opportunity, on tbe occasion of your resigning your position, to present to you this silver pitcher and salver, and this silver butter dish, with cur best wishes for yonr future prosperity and happiness. Mr. Kerr, in reply, said that he wai taken completely by surprise, but that ho waa most gratified at thia expression of feeling ou the' part of his fellow workmen, and he assured them thnt he had always striven to do the fair thing with those under his charge, and, furthermore, that he should prise this gift most highly, and that he should regard it as une of his most valuable possessions. . ., Mr. Ira Ewing and others mad* short addresses and paid a high tribute for his impartiality and consistency as foreman of the factory. Mr. Ewing said lhat he had worked under various foremen for a period of 30 yean, and by none had he been accorded more gentlemanly treatment than by Mr. Kerr. Some music followed, and all were invited to a well-spread table, whioh Mrs. Kerr had kindly provided, and the inner man was comforted with plenty of good things, not least of which was a dish of fine strawberries and cream. Mr. Kerr leaves the factory to take charge of a sawmill at Ladners Landing, the previous owner of which he has bought out, and where all his friends wish him the success he so well deserves.

Navigation'ot the Fraser. The announcement made in yesterday'** (KN.UNBIAX, that, rtlironih the persistent efforts of the Hoyal Oity Planing Mills Oo., a vessel has at last been chartered to load lumber at their mills in this city for the foreign market, will be received with gratification by the majority of our readers, and particularly those in thii oity. The matter of the free opening and subsequent maintenance of the Fraser river to all classes of sea-going vessels is of tho utmost importance to New Wostminster city and district; and a beginning, howevor small, has only to bo made in order to demonstrate tho perfect feasibility of large vessels coming to this port, and to explode the fallacies which have been heaped upon tho subject by interested parties. For several months past the Westminster Board of Trade, as well as the E. 0. P. M. Ca, have been doing everything in their power to move the proper Dominion authorities to a realization and fulfilment of their duty in this much-neglected matter of tlie Fraser river channel through tho sandheads. A reluctance, if not hostility, has invariably been manifested by the authorities when urged to do the commonest justice in this important matter. Inadequate appropriations have been made—a masterly inactivity has been displayed—buoys have been allowed to get and to remain out of plaoe-—no official chart of the ohan nel has yet been furnished—and neither the Sir James Douglas nor the Samson, both Dominion government steamers, have been available when wanted, by reason of "red tape" or other causes. Misleading reports have even been made by the agent of the department iii this province, who resides in Victoria, concerning the depth of water in the channel at different stages of the tide, as witness the wide difference in the reports published yesterday as a result of the alleged soundings taken by Oapt. Lewis, of the marine department, and those made by Oupts. Johnson and McAllister, tlio well-known pilots. These latter measurements aro supported by the evidence of Oapt. Rogers, who is well qualified by a long and continued experience over a route involving the paasago of the sandheads. Before a meoting of the Board of Trade, held last March, he stated: "I have nevor found less than eighteen feet at dead low tide nt Woodward's Slough. I wonld undertake to bring up .any ship drawing 24 feet. There is good protection ut the mouth of the river, und ships could wait with safety. A buoy placed at inch side of tho entrance to the channel would be an almost infallible guide to navigators." Capt. Me Allister, in his report of the 28th March, to tho "Yale and New West minster Pilotage Authority," says that he finds very much improvement in the channel sinco the work had been comim ncod on the sandheads, and that when the work then in progress was completed there would be no obstruction in the way of ships crossing the sandheads. The river, he adds, could easily be confined in the channel so as to ad- rait vessels of any draft coming to this port It waa necessary, he said, that tho channel should be sounded and the buoys properly placed monthly during the high-water stage. A noticeable and gratifying feature in connection, with the honest reports of competent pilots is that soundings made by them from time to time invariably demonstrate that the channel quickly responds to the smallest outlay, thus establishing beyond a doubt that with a moderate expenditure and ordinary precautions the river oan be placed nnd maintained in a first-class condition as a highway and port for the largest vessels. The importance to West minster city and distriot of the early accomplishment of this work will be partially apprehended when we consider some of the issues at stake. Before a meeting of the Board of Trado in March last Mr. W. H. Higgins, of this city, stated that he represented a company of mill-owners and luinbitrniiiu (Messrs. McLaren it Boss, of Ottawa), who were desirous of locating on the Fraserln»«r near Westminster. The mills which they intended to establish, for the export trade exclusively, would, he calculated, utilize 100,000 to 150,000 feet of logs per day, dis- bursements ih their works and logging camps would amount to nearly a thousand dollars per diem, nnd two ships a week would be required constantly to load their lumber fnr tliu foreign market. This company hnvo recently purchased tho Mclnnes ranch near this city, whero thoy in tend to erect their immense lumber ing works, they havo secured extensive timber limits, und the only thing that can retard their progress is the possibility of the necessary work at the river mouth not lining pushed «» rapidly as it should. Our readers have only to glance nt these facts, then to ptojeoti their thoughts into tho future, allowing something for the development of the industry whioh we havo touohed upon, of others which Lava boon long established, anil of the consequent and certain birth of new industries, to arrive at the inevitable conclusion that the matter of tho placing of tho free navigation of the Fraser beyond a perudventui'o is of paramount importance to us—not oven second to the Southern railway.' iiqinctliiiig 'has-been done, it is true, Imt much remains to bc*4$!ie. In tiiirinsiie of ■yesterday it whs stated thnt"' tifWHry feet of water in the channel is absolutely necessary before tho port can be registered us open to all classes of merchant vessels." Although a great deal of navigation can be carried on before this point is reached, still it must be attained, and, the sooner tho better, and the Dominion authorities must take immediate steps to issuo an official chart for registration at tiro proper places throughout the world. For lack of this wo nro handicapped, nnd have to oiler special inducements to vessels chartering for this port, as was done the othor day by the undauiit cd and enterprising E. O. P. M. Co., in the matter of chartering tho ship Cannula, Capt. Gordon, which is expected here about Saturday. It is matter for congratulation that such enterprise exists amongst us, but it should.not be handicapped thus, Our citizens should do their best to favorably.impress Capt. Gordon on his arrival and during his stay here. We believe some official recognition by the city of this important episode has been mooted, and it would not be out of place. Late Canadian News.

Kotes from Practical Experience In Stocking Gamo Grounds. Bomo yeara ago I brought from North Carolina to New Jersey some fifteen or twenty-pairs ol quail to put out on my own placo, I kept them in my barn from February to the middle of April, feedlm? I I hem on split peas, their favorite food ln North Carolina! and giving them free access to wateh I found they became very tame, and wben tbey were turned out in April tbey , continued to remain for some time in the vicinity of tho barn. Tbe place was very favorably situated -for stocking, a stream running along the edge of a wood, with cultivated laud on i one side, at intervals patches of good woodcock grounds and two or three dry > bottoma of old mill dams overgrown with alii'jiH ami raspberries. I bad food scattered in various places [ (or them until they paired. The most of r thorn raised breeds, but they continued 1 to bo much tamer than the native quail, f nnd wi it consequence were nearly all shot tbo first season; some of them before tho law was up, by outside parties, no attention being paid to the fuel that tho land ^y.'.ts posted. From my observation I would say peas Icons: it ate pood food for quail. Patches fof pejis uud buckwheat should ho sown in Ishidt-M-i'il places on tho grounds where lliir-u are turned out. When these are Ifaii-ly started It is a good plan to scatter flight, I 'ranches and bramble over them, so liis to furnish shelter from hawks while lili- birds uro feeding. Thick patches of IbriinihiD furnish the best shelter. T ere should be turned out ns early as -pusslblo an equal number of cocks aod ■bens. 11 is snld that unmated cocks break pip tho ucsts nnd destroy tho eggs of the mates t bey could not win. The hinli should not be on hand long fcwmgii to become familiar with man and lo becomo tame and dependent, if they Vecnuiu so—and they can be made as fen ic kens—some method should be used to luako them wild before they uro shot at.*— ■i'l-rtst uud Stream.

The wator in tho river did not rise any highor at the 0. P. N.

The < old Water Cure- Last ovcuing between i) and 10 o'clock, on Columbia street, Mr. Trapp's pony became balky and lay down on the road, refusing to move, although vory ntvong inducements were made to persuade it to do so. The animal was attached to a dog cart at tho time, and tho numerous positions it managed to gut into (if ten placed the vehicle in a dangerous position, but fortunately no damage rouulted from thoso freaks. After trying numerous devices to make tlie animal rise someone suggested that the hose he turned on und give the pony a drenching. This was considered good advice, and a stream of water was soon washing the dust out of the animal's hide, but the scheme seemed to bo a failure, as the pony lay perfectly quiet, apparently enjoying the cooling stream. Another person then proposed that the water be directed into its ear, and this was tried with tho greatest success. The pony got up with n rush, stood on its hind legs and snorted loud aud long after which its nige gradually subsided and in a few minutes it walked peacefully to the stable as docile as a limb. The Clara W* Young. The Clara W. Young moda her trial trip to-day. Sho is a decidedly handsome ciuft aa to proportions, model and finish. Hor dimensions are: Length ovor all, Gl ft., width of beam, 12 ft. 8 ins.; depth of hold, 9 ft.; 11x12 cylinder, and 35 to 40 horse-power engine. She was built by tha McPheo Bros., at thoir shipyard below tho R. C, P. Mills and is iho property of tho British Amorican Packing Co., of which the genial salmon-king, Bon Young, is manager. Sho has the latest improved machinery and stool builurs, imporLed from John Doty's works, Toronto, and is in every retipect complete. The machinery, which worked splendidly, was put in under tho superintendence of Mr, -J. C. Buchanan,* machinist, of this city, who lias earned quite a reputation iu this line, having superintended the samo worJ(.in connection with tho Falcon and Clara Port, built lately. Cn her trial trip to-day the Clara W, Young took a spin around tho river, -flyiug tho Union Jaok, and afterwards took.a new somr, which hus boon:, built here, down to tho B.A.P.C«.'s establishment. Thb new ateamer will be usod iu the cannery busineos. Iluine From Ottawa.. Mr. D. Chisholm, M. P., arrived last night from Ottawa after a rather interesting trip of soven days across the continent. Mr. Chisholm is -looking remarkably well, the winter in the east having apparently agreed with his health. The trip homewards was interrupted by a delay at Gravel River, east of Port Arthur, whero a bridge had beon carried away by n freshet, and another detection occurred near Donald, caused by a landslide which damaged tho road-bed considerably. In speaking of his parliamentary duties at Ottawa, Mr. Ohisholm' says it was very hard work getting appropriations from the government, and it wus only by thu ni'St persistent application he managed to get the amounts voted. In thu mattor of the improvement of tho mouth of tho Fraser, Mr. Chisholm feels confident that he 'Will bo able next session to secure a sufficient sum lo complete the improvements and put the rivor in a first-class navigable condition. The amount necessary to put tho rifle range in good condition and pay ofi' the remaining debt, also tho loan of rittuo to the association Mr. Chisholm curried through successfully, but not without thrao trouble. Mr. Ohisholm has been busy all day shaking handn with hia numerous frirnidfl who wero all dolighted to see him safe bomo again.

Thnt Sural Fracas. We received fome time since from tlio clerk of the magistrate's court at Maple Ridge a full C'-py of the certified tvidenoo in the ''cane of RoUm*: Ste- pheiu vs. John Hinch, for awnult with intent, lo do bodily hmii." Ypfltfordtty two tett&rseumfl to hand, ouo from .John Laity, the magistrate whose decision la impeached by our o irrespnml- ent, "Vox, and the other from a new corresnoudful who signs himself "Vox No 2,' Both . f these communications call in toijii.&tioiitho value of the certified ovidencn asigivinga-fairl^-se of tho csho. Mr. Laity Bays that "iu summary convictions many questions are asked and answered whioh only a stenographer could note." "Vox No. 2'' remarks that "Mr. Laity is woll known to oppose tho granting of any liquor licenses in this municipality,'' and draws certain inferonce therefrom of ultorior motives. Wo trust that our eorrospodeiits will appreciate our position when wo say thut the matter now on hand in re this case would fill three columns of Thk Columihan, and that wo could not, in fairness to all concerned, publish auy one of these separate articles without publishing tho whole, and in justice tothe majority of our readers we cannot give so much Bpace to this matter. We admit its relative importance, but tho different views on the question have already been stated in these columns, and we fear it would terminato whero it began —in u difl'erenco of opinion. There was certainly a wide difforonco of opinion in tho decisions of tho two magis-1 trates—Mr. Harris and Mr. Laity— already published in this paper. They both had the same evidence, such as it was, to go nn, and both aro hound by the same magisterial obligations. Judges of the supreme court do not always concur, and the fact of two magistrates-"-agreeing to disagree" would not necessarily oonviot either of violating his high trust, If, however, any ,ouo is aggrieved by the finding of a magistrate, the aggrieved party, wo believe, has recourse to an appeal, which would bo more satisfactory and final than a newspaper discussion could possibly be. With duo respect to our correspondents, we must dcclino to give any more space to this matter. The people of this country have spoken. Thoy declare by their patronage of Dr, Thomas' Kclectric Oil, that they believe it to be an article of genuine merit, .adapted to the euro of rheumatism, as well as relieves the pains of fractures aud dislocations, external injuries, corns, bunions, piley, and other maladies. A Willi VlR Hunt. Several years ago a litter of pigs, for want of attention and home comforts, strayed from their ancestral, hogpen and took to the woods in rear of the up^e^o-M^ti'tirtho city, preferring the wild freedom of the forest to tiio restrictions uud abuses practiced at home. Forest life has evidontly agreed with these lovers of freedom, us they have increased, multiplied and devastated the earth to such an extent that residents living in the outskirts havo become alarmod at the progress they uro making. Gardens, potato patches, turnip and cabbage fields nre frequently visitod by these pigs and four bits will usually purchase tho remainder of tho crop ufter these animals have satisfied themselves. Many attempts havo been made t" exterminate theso pests but all have failed. There is a tradition among old-timers that some great Knglish huntsman' killed oue, but the feat is veiled in bo much obscurity that only very credulous people put any confidence in the story. Tho fact is the pigs aro up to snuff, and are more than a mutch fur tho average huntsman, which many an ardent sportsman has found to his sorrow at the end of a long day's tramp. A few of the most ardeut devotees of tlio great Nimrod have been quietly organizing for the pnst couplo uf woeks for a regular old- fashioned, out-and-out, cutcli-as-oatch- can'.feoal hunt. It is safe to say that ho hunters ever arrayed themselves with more confidence, as to thoir suo- coss, than did these gentlemen. Armed with eyorythjng from, a riflo to a re* •folver, fiom a Uojic-spoar to a Bkeue dhu and from an Australian boopimiig to a Zulu assegai thb party mado ft very picturesque and charming appearance last evening as tbey marched to tho camping grounds of the gay nnd festive pigs, ln the party wns noticed a veteran who has clmwol the wild boir all over France and mado. tbat beautiful country ao hot for tho boar tribo that the moat of them moved to Norway and Sweden aud became, like the French nobility uf, tho timo of the revolution, genuine cmgret.' Another of tho party, In yeats gono'by,' chased tho wild buffalo oyer. tho tracltk-es prairies and gaily followed the cinnamon bear aud mountain lion In their rooky dens in tlio theii unknown wild, wild west; With such experts an these in the throng who could doubt tho ultimate success At the chase? Arriving on tlm scene tho hunten formed themselves into a half-mooh and proceeded cautiously into the forest for a distance of six miles, after which they turned about and made their way buck.to the point of commencement, where thoy awaited the clmriui'tlu shadows of night to cover thorn as b- uine.-l, tired and annoyed they stealthily made their way home by dark -streets and narrow lanes. Out of regard for the families of the hunters, who are muoh respected in this city and uro not really responsible for the conduct of these Nimrods, we withhold their nauios, ■ SILK RIBBONS I Tliose.of our readers who would like to have an elegant, large package of extra fine, Assorted Ribbons (by mail), in different widths and all tho latest fashion' able shades; adapted lor Bonnet Strings, Neckwear, Scarfs, Trimming for | Hats aad Dresses, Dews, Fancy Work, Ao,t can get an astonishing big bargain, owing to the recent failure of a largo wholesale Ribbon Manufacturing Co., by sending only $5 cents (ntamps), to the address we givo below.
