THE HAWAIIAN REVOLUTION. San Fkancisco, July 10.—Whilo all nationalities wen represented in the successful revolt made against King Kalakaua, Americans were predominant in the revolution, ns sisted by English, French, and Portuguese residents. Speeches at the mass meeting, at which' demands were made upon the king, were in English, with the exception of two in the Hawaiian tongue. The declaration, however, that the natives wore true to the king proved misleading, as it wns from their vengeance that ex-Minister Gibson seemed most to fear. The meeting wsb presided ovor by P. 0. Jones, merchant at Honolulu, who in his address used Ihe following language: "I feel honored at being nominated as chairman of this, the largest and most important meeting that was ever assembled in this city. Wo have assembled in a constitutional manner and propose to conduct our operations in a constitutional manner. We are here for the purpose of asking for good government, a thing we have nob had, but which we earnestly desire. Wo as repre sentatives of all nations are assembled here and we can afford to conduct ourselves in a firm and dignified manner because we are firm and determined in what wo ask." Wm. L. Green, also a merchant of Honolulu and named by the populace for fj.iuii- liUj.Ioiwi, tu .Ho uiui.l o£ ft speech said the government haa ue- come intolerable, and that it was necessary to demand, and if necessary fight for, a constitutional monarchy. W. A. Kinney, anothor speaker, said he would prefer to have the country independent, but the flag should be kept clean at all hazards. "We need a new constitution," said he. "The miserable rag we have does not give adequate representation nor impose proper restriction upon the power of the throne. The franchise will be reconstructed, and the king will have power as great as the ruler of Great Britian, and that ought to be enough for him. If to his own rights he wants to add the rights of 75,000 subjects he is not going to have them. Revolution of thought will be followed by revolution of arms, It always has been if our reasonable requests are not granted." S. B. Dale, another speaker, said they would give tho king just one chance to reform and no more. O. lt. Bubig, a resident of the island since 1840, said the people must have constitutional reform or fight. L. A. Turston, representative from the island of Molokai, said the Hawaiian king had in past tried to stay revolution by changing his ministry, but that the people should stop short of nothing but a new constitution. Liables said the American flag was what he wanted, but tho Hawaiian would suit him under a new constitution. Hon. 0. E. Oilbron said tho Huwailnnn were willing the lting should remain on the throne, but it could only be under a new constitution. This speaker said: "If Queen Victoria were to act as badly as Kalakaua she would not live an hour." W. H. Eice spoko in tho Hawaiian tongue and said that the people must deolareopen war against the king if ho refused thoir demands. When tho committee of thirteen waited on the king they found him in an absolute state of trepidation. His body guard had disappeared and there was no one to man any of tho guns whicli had beon taken into the palace. The king said ho would give an answer at once to the demands of the populace, but the committee said they desired hi, reply in writing. Tho king then, on the following morning, called upon the foreign diplomatic representatives and asked them to assume the direction of affairs, but they declined, as already stated, whereupon the reply of the king was forwarded to the oomraitto of thirteen. Tho arrest of Walter Murray Gibson, the deposed minister, occurred at 10 o'clock on the morning of July 1st. Ool. V. V. Ashford, commanding tho Honolulu rifles, made the arrest with a squad of his troops, These troops acted us a royal force, but on the first sight of revolution took sides with the consfitutiouil party. They number about iJ00 ind are mainly Americans and-Englishmen. During the night Gibson made several at tempts to escape and had he accomplished his designs thore is no doubt he would have fallen into the hands of tho infuriated populace. Gibson is an American, and has been in Hawaii, for nearly 40 years. His career is well known, In an ex^ra edition of tho Honolulu Gazette, issued on the day the Mariposa sailed, the following mention is made of the fallen minister: "It is a sad commentary on this, man's whole career to think that he has lived so long and escaped the gallows in other lands to be captured by tlie very, class bo laughed at and spurned in thofnst, but who-4M*>have the whip on this miserable apology for* human being and will see to it that justice is meted out to him to tlie full extent, and who wOl also compel him and his son-in-law to disgorge some at least of their ill-gotten gains? which they succeeded in lilchiiig from the public purse. It is a long lane which has no turn, and it is pleasant to know that this brace of accomplished swindlers of tho public have reached their goal and the limit of their power to do further mischief." Shortly after ex-Minister Gibson and his son-in-law were imprisoned iu tho warehouse, six mounted riflemen and other guards were detailed to look after them. They will be watched night and day until further orders from tho citizens' committeo. Tho ire of the populace was roused Against George W. Macfarlane & Co. for bringing iu rifles and ammunition from Australia to bolster up tlie Gib- 011s government. Macfarlnne's party havo hastened to deny everything. The arms were sent by Hoffning & Co. of Sydney, N.S. At tke^time of the seizure a great crowd went to the dock with tho Honolulu rifles ready for a fight. Whon these munitions were taken tho last hope of tho Gibson faction expired, as the citizens have hunted out every large supply of Are arms. Tho rifles imported from Australia are of British make, part being Enfield - and part Martini-Henry. The ex- minister took good care that there would bo abundance of ammunition, having ordered an additional supply from Sydney. The extent of his preparations will be made manifest when next steamer from Sydney reaches Honolulu. A detachment of Honolulu rifles has been assigned the duty of watching every steamer coming in. On tho night of Juno 30th J. S. Walker. aiulitor-Kenernl. auil F. S. Pn»H. noticed to carry from the pslaco a basket-full of documents which are supposed to have had some connection with the opium bribery case. Kalakaua also announced to the citizens' committee that the halls to be given at the palace would be discontinued from this time. The king also gave notice of a reduction in the force of attaches ubout the palace, and agreed to clear out tho harpies and hangers-on who hove lived in luxury for li years. Ho will also givo up his hula-hula dancers. In nn interview with the resident Hawaiian consul a representative of the oscociated press was informed that as far as was known at the consulate tho action of the king was satisfactory, and that peace would be finally restored to the kingdom. The government is constituted entirely anew and tho consul expressed the belief thnt the revolution would stop short of any change in the ruler. The now cabinet is as follows: Wm. G. Green, primo minister and minister of foreign affairs; L. A. Thurston, minister of the interior; Godfrey Brown, minister of finance; C. W, Ashford, uttorney-geueral. San Fbancisco, July 10.—Interviews aro printed here with merchants as to the probablooutcomo of the present crisis in the Hawaiian kingdom, but they nre somewhat conflicting. Some of those familiar with affaire on the island contend that the trouble has only commenced. lTpon the fat© of Gibson considerable is thought to depend. In the past ho has had considerable influence with Kalakaua, and should ho regain his ascendancy it is possible thoy might make n fight against the revolutionary party. One merchant expressed the belief thnt as tho whito population had. determined nn a chango and had control <il tlie military forces, thoy would, if necessary, declare n monarchy in the ond or sot up n republic. The next steamer from Honolulu will be tho Australia, to arrivo next Wednesday, when more news will be available.; KV1CTIONS. DiniMN, July 10.—In evictions at Culgraney county, Weokford, to-dny, a man named Borcy nnd three daughters inndo such a defense in their house against the bailiffs who attempted to eject them that the rifhcen ill angor attacked the girls and badly injured one of thorn in tho head. Three bailiffs wero arrested and charged with assault for this, in the next house the tenant and his wife made considerable resistance but wore put out and wero arrested for scalding the police with hot water.

Vikoinia, Nev., July 10.—Supt Lyman came up from the 1500 level of the Consolidated California & Virginia mine this morning and report, that tho drill broke through into the Best & Belcher cross cut about 4:30 o'clock.

RUSSIAN PRESS PROTESTS. St. Petersburg, July 10. — Tho Russian newspapers unanimously disapprove of the election of Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg Gotha to the Bulgarian throne. They all pronounce the choice of the sobranje the result of Austro-Gennsu intrigue, and urge the ports to intervene and the powers to witndrnw their representatives. The Nome Vrmya says Russia in no case will allow Prince Ferdinand to go to Sofia, and adds that if he arrives with an Austrian escort Russia will ask Austria to keep her hand, off.- ■ THE BOniES RECOVERED.

Public meetings and picnics are being held in many places through out Ontario for the purpose of discussing commercial union with the United . State; and obtaining an expression of opinion on the question. Ai nanny of ■ these meetings Mr. •Ernstus Winmn has delivered addresses, and in solne cases the gatherings have been addressed by American gentlemen, as well as Canadians. The question has likewise come up for discussion at various' gatherings of farmers which usually take place during the early summer, and it is worthy of noto that of tho opinions expressed a very large proportion aro in favor of commercial union under certain conditions. Among other methods employed to ascertain public opinion is that of inviting replies to certain questions. The Montreal Witness lately addressed a number of enquiries to its readers, and received a; great many replies showing that a majority of its patrons favored commercial union. In view of the extent of this agitation it is. quite possible tbat the question of commercial union will before long be taken up as a political issue by one of the great political parties of Canada, and in this way it may be forced upon the attention of the whole country. Canadian parties are now muoh more evenly divided than they have been for a number of years, and those in power are, therefore, less able to resist any popular .movement. The majority ,' ia large enough, however, to prevent any sudden revolution, and it may safely be assumed that the merits of commercial union will be well discussed before the principle is adopted—if it is adopted at all. Tke Hawaiian Rerolution. There seems no reason to doubt that the revolution in the Hawaiian kingdom is quite a serious affair. For a long time the government has been growing more and more unpopular. The extravagance and dissapation of the king, and the conspicuous corruption of himself and his court have been a standing disgrace to the nation and a constant menace to the stability of the empire. The absence of the queen, who has been paying her respects to Queen Victoria during the jubilee festivities, seem, to have been made the occasion of still greater excesses by the Hawaiian king, and these exhibitions were more than the patience of bis long-suffering people .oould-endure. The. result of the revolution is not easyto,foretell. ten lor a long timo < •■ '•mere hat been^ISFTnonjj certain feeling of antagonism between the native population and tlie foreign element, and that antagonism will doubtless have considerable influence in shaping the destiny of the kingdom. From the reports already received it seems that the necessities of ' the case have been such, however, as to bring about a more! cordial feeling between the various elements than was supposed to be possible. It is very plain that no party in the kingdom, unless it may be the party of boodlers, wishes to we the old administration continued. The white population, com posed chiefly oi Americans and Britons,'seem to have taken a lead ingpait in the demand for constitutional government, but the demand seems to have had the cordial approval and support of a proportion of the natives as well. In the despatches nothing is said of the Chinamen, of whom there are known to be large numbers on the island. As a rule Ohinese are not very forward in agitations for constitutional rights, and it is quite possible they will preserve strict neutrality in the present tight. The position of the Hawaiian islands is such as to make them an object of solicitude to several nations. They lie in the line of transpacific trade/and are so situated as to make them invaluable to the power which aims at ' supremacy on tlie Pacific. For some time the peoplo of the United States, whose citizens do a large trade with Iho inlands, bore om. discussing the propriety of assuming a protectorate over the coveted kingdom, It ia claimed that whenever this island surrenders its independence it mutt oome under American influence, because America could not tolerate the establishment ot a great foreign power so near her western coast. Great Britain, Russia, France, and Germany would all be glad to get hold of the island, both for the sake of extending their trade and in view of its advantages from a military point of view. It is probable, however, that King Kalakaua will be permitted for the present at least to remain on the Hawaiian throne, and ihe revolutionists will be content to aocept a new constitution in whioh proper safeguards tin given for the liberty of the subject. The islands are in seme places very productive, and the kingdom is by nO means without resources. The population is about 78,000. It ia here that the great navigator and discoverer, Capt. Cook; met with his death at the hand, of the natives in 1779. King Kalakaua is now 61 years of age, and has occupied tho throne for 17 yean.

ROBSON, ^a-AJLtr**?. S3 LATE FORGIVENESS. '!NcrMisfer." said Uncle Jake, "I , af n't Bpllcoil!,nor never was." I'or iriany'years Uncle Jake hnd kept it Utile tavern near ono of the tnlets whom (.lie sea breaks through the long kuikI- l»r Into tho Great Bouth Bay, at a point about fifteen mil,, (rom Now York, Of a pleasant Sunday In Summer It was a nrotly lively resort Unelo Jake mndo a Jovial host, and people used to Say that he owadhis good health In a .»r?at menntire to the frequency with *h|r!ih» drank to it himself. Most of , Ui» fundus parties from tho; harbors olon,i the bay stopped hero for a clam- Itake end a cucKtall; yachtsmen an* t'horod near the Inlet nnd sportsmen would put up atthe tavern for a week or two nt a time. But tn winter .It was a dreary spot. Tho monotonous turmoil of the surf was broken only now and then by the shrill cry of the gull or tho shrieking of the wind ai lt whirled across the bar. Brio, the lo»l» storms only an oiroa. JemlyttMW*-- ——■— saving station i it. storms rorapati visited tl jatrol from tho life- _ the place, ond at any time In Winter a party like ours was a rarity. A real Bohemian freak had brought us down to Unole Jake's that night. The evening before a dozen of us artists had met at a little reunion in the studio of one of our number, and one of us seeing a sketch ot Unole Jake's tavern on the easel, had proposed paying him a Winter's visit. We nil knew Unole Jake, and the idea ,o|* Winter's villi to him was too muoh 'fa novelty to be resisted. So we sot out for the tavern the neit day, and arrived there before night timo. Uncle Jake know that the trip across the bay hnd been a rough ono. '■ (So he staited a roaring wood fire; and when we had finished supper be put a steaming bowl of punch on the table. But despite his attention and tbe jollity of our party, he wasn't in the best of spirits. Not that he didn't dip hU glass Into the punoh bowl pretty often, hut he seemed moody end didn't talk much.'- '.;' > His low spirits seemed also to hare a depressing effect on Samson, his big mastiff, who was about as well known . .along the coast as Unole Jake.himself. I'suajlj he barked a friendly welcome to everyone who came to the house. But ho huil been sullen and silent ell the evening and had sat neat Uncle Jake, resting his head on his master's knee mid now and than looking up wistfully at him. I had known Uncle Jake and his big dog longer than the others had, and I noticed that something was wrong. The old man seemed glad enough to see mo again and made mo sit next to him. But Kelt that since I.had beon * there eome change had come'over him and the dog and the old plaoe; aud at : times ho looked as though ho would like to tell me something but hesitated on account of the others. 1 remembered a pretty, bright-eyed lass, about 17 years old, when I lost snw her, who was at the tavern in former yours, and whom wo used to call " Uncle Jnko's little girl." Sho made herself handy about tho place, and was so simple and graceful in her bearing that alio was a favorite with all who wont there. The sun had browned her face and arms, and the wind had played with her fair hair until it hung over her forehead Ilk, tangled sun- beams. . She was tall ud lithesome, and as strong as she was graceful. Often, whon she was a mere girl of 10 or 12, I had seen her pulling Tier skiff across tlio bay and hailing the old fishermen as they souddod past In their smacks. Many a time they would ley to and. take her aboard and tow her skiff homo; and then she wonld take the helm from tlio skipper, trim the sheet and shout with glee as the spray came dashing over ihobow. I wondered whet had become ot her and asked Uncle Jake, but he didn't seem to hear my question, though the dog sprang to his feet end roamed about uneasily before he slunk back to his master's feet. I was about to ask the question again when one ot our party proposed a song. While they gathered In a group around the old piano fit the oorner, the old man stole quietly to the door of another room nnd bockoned me to follow him. Ae I jolnod him he was stooping over an old bureau tumbling among' some papers, Wlille the dog, who. had slipped in after him, watehod him Intently until he put his hand on a tin-type which he drew out. and showed mo. It was the picture of a child, and in the features I recognised " Uncle Jake's littleglrl." In the next room eome one was playing a Jangling aocompanimont and the rest were (houtlng a boisterous song. I thought then would be a good timo to' ask him what had become of the girl whose childish features we were looking at, eo I Inquired, by way of introduction, it he hod ever been married. It was to this he had replied: "No, Ulster, I ain't splloed, nor never was. But yer see," he continued, oe though he knew what I was driving at, " It's uncommon lonesome here in Winter, on' many a time when I've heard somo young ono ashore yonder as aen't eared for at home, I've got " folks to let me take it out here with lta i me, Tlie children kind o' cheered me up durln' the long Winter eventn's, an' when Summer oame I'd ask to havo 'em stay a bit longer. Ihe little ones would beg real hard, too, for I made a good deal of'em; and they thought kind o'well o' me for It. >,' Some o' them stayed a few years, but as thoy got big an' oould bo bandy at home tlielr folks fetched 'em away from mo; an' so at last they all wont; all but lllllo Haggle, her as they used to call 'Unole Jake's little girl.' Itwasobad home I'd took her from, an' afore she'd boon with me long her father wandered off nn' her mother died In the poorhouso. There wasn't no ono to take her from mo then, so she stayed hart; an' right glad I waa to keep her. " She wa* a smart, likely little thing, , an'} thought ail Ti tin tor her an' lay *',3>y5f MW mttnaj tot her. When she first came here she was no more than S, an' when yer saw her two summers ago she was goln' on 18. " Yer know Haggle was as good-look- lu' a girl as yer could find hereabouts, an' many a feller as has oome herewith • his boat In Summer haa been kind o' took m'her. I was kind o'proud to have'em So too, for I'd a precious good opinion o' Haggle, an' I liked to see 'em back me up.

But someone as had a spy- glass iini'l'llioy wasn't aboard—an'—mis- ter-tliev wasn't; ( " Tho roller as was in her eamo from tho Jursoy coast, an' ho said as a man an' afcjiiimu ldiHlod there the day before, nn' the man-ayoung, good-lookln'chap, lie wild—had paid him to bring the boat over.

"She was all the world to me,was Maggie. I took herto me as a child, an' brought her up, an' sot my heart on hor, an for her to leave me In my old days wus mighty hard. " W lien I got quieted down thoy began to eumfort me a-sayln' as she might como back. Ah, mistor, if she only had I I'd have welcomed her, for she was still my little Maggie, an' I'd ha' loved hor ns nliieh aft ovoif But It got to bo Winter un' Spring an' Summer an' on toward Fall nn' I hoard nothln'of her. "It wasn't muoh more than a.year after she'd loft when one roorhlli' a-feller curao sailing ovor from thoslioro with a toregram for me. It came from, the city, an' It read that tf I was to go to one o' the hospitals thero, I'd find a girl as'would like to see mo; an'it told mo to come quick, too, for she was very low, perliai'B a-dylu'. ..'; tet may know who tho girl wai; an' it's likely yor know, too, as I wasn't long n-gottiu' to hor. But I wasn't any ■oo soon. Sho was lyln' on a cot, au' when «ho .saw mo, it was Just'all sho could do to stretch her arms out to me, so she oould put'cm around me nn' press hor poor, palo faco against mine. " ' Father,' she whispered, ' I went back'on yor^-on yer who'd Won so good an' kind to mo; an', father', I want yer to say before I die as you've forgiven .mo.' " I couldn't say nothln'. mistor, I just hold hor closer. I held her till they told mo sho couldn't speak no more, an' then I. luid her baok. It was only a few minuted aftor that she lived, but afore she dlod she opened hor eyosoneo moro an' moved her lips, t bent down to her an' sho could just whlspor: " 'Father, I'm sure yer haven't gone hack on nio. I'm sure yer forgive mo. But— father—I want yor to forgive him, too. For—father—1 vo forgiven-—' " I forgive, her, mister, un' I've tried to forgive lilui. I'll try again, mister; I'll try hard for tho llttlo girl's sake. I know as his sin's n-goln' to drlvo him back hero somo tlmo—drive him back that he may go on his knees to me an' toll mo how he wronged hor an' mo." Tho man's voice broke In hie emotion. I had always boen fond of Undo Jake, but after what ho had told me I Uked him better than ever. I knew that his " little girl's " death weighed heavily on him; and so after that I got up ae many parties as I could to visit tho tavern and cheer Mm up. Ono day toward Autumn, two years afterwur.ls, in ono of my not infrequent visits to tho tavern, Unole Jake culled mo aside ami said r, "Mister, it's gcttlu' kind o' lonesome for tho dog an' me down hero Winters, an' I guess I won't slay bore no longer aftor tho Fall. I've got a houso as I took over In the village ashore yonder, near to whoro tho llttlo girl's burled. The dog an' I want to bo nour Maggie, an'If yerll oome down oft an' on, we'll be glad tor soo yer, for lt ain't muoh company we'll bo h'ftVIn'," Well, Undo Jake took tbe houso and I did go down thore ae often as I could. Tho blazing logs and the singing kettle Boomed particularly oheery one January night. A fierce wind was howling uround the house. It had been snowing all day, but as lt grew colder the snow had stopped, and now thegusts sent ley particles rattling against the window panes. Tho dog seemed sleeping peacefully— at least he hadn't stirred—when Uncle Jake wont to the hearth to lift up tho kettle. The old man had brewed a punch, and was Just raising the glass to his lips, when suddonly Samson sprang toward ono ot tho windows with a furious bark. As I turned In the .direction in which he sprang 'I saw what might have boon an illusion, it vanished eo quickly—a man's face, pale, haggard and driven, pressed against the pane. A moment later the dog was loaplng against the door. I sprang toward lt and threw it open, letting out the dog, who remained outside barking and howling for half an hour after I had olosed the door. I told Undo Jake, that, I thought a man hod been but there, but all he said was: " I guess It's ono o'thorn tramps ns comes around. Samson ain't particular fond of 'urn. But if the fellow was cold and wanted a drink why .didn't ho knock nn' ask for it decent-like? Suro he'd ha'got it." The next morning was bright nnd oloar and- very cold. As the wind had subsided, unole Jake proposed to go over to the grave-yard—ho hardly lot a day pass without going there. Tho grave-yard was a llttlo enelosure a trine further out of tho vlllutre than our houso. As we entered the gate the dog suddenly darted forward barking furiously as he hod the night before. Following him hastily wo saw what ho was barking at. A thin, white hand had clasped the headstone, and oyer the grave lay, face downwards, the body of a man. Uncle Jake grasped me and held mo buck a moment. Then we tried to loose the hand. But It woe clasped eo (Irmly that we could hardly draw It from tho stone.

CANADA'S COMIC JOURNAL GREAT IMPROVEMENTS FOR 1887. THE AIM OF " GRIP" is to set forth, In In an Impartiul and Independent manner, the pasHlng events of Canadian political and sncliil life. Its Curtoons speak more definitely and more pleasingly than who'e columns of editorial. In this pungent, easily appreciable, and artistic style of presenlhiKu subject, tbo whole situation Is revealed nt a glance. The success of Grip shows how well this fact Is appreciated—I(h Cartoons on the passing political events of the country being even more eagerly sought nftcr than the chaste and humorous letter-press of the napor,— though the latter is equal to thai of any similar publication on tho continent. Tho publishers of Grip are making ex tensive Improvements-for 1880. The old cover Is to bo discarded, and the Journal will hereafter comprise 12 pages, and be printed ou heavy toned aud calendered paper,—every number being so urtlstlnal ly executed as to compart* favorably with the best papers on tho continent. The advts. wilt ho compressed and more systematically arranged; while similar lm* provements will be made ns to the letterpress, A new and hatulBome design will adorn tho title page; while tho Cartoons will certainly not sutler from extensive improvements in the artistic department. Tlie price of Grip will hereafter he 92 a year, which Is lower than that of any inper of Its kind In America,—most of liem sellfnf for S5. c"—'" *—*- * CWjJWlll bo 10 cents.

Tho coucern has been for nearly a year owned and controlled hy tlio British Columbia Stationery and Printing Company, of Now Westminster, Victoria and Vancouver. Tlio object of tlio new company is to continue tho pub* ligation of tho Uhitisu Columbian newspaper ond carry on a general printing and publishing concern, controlled entirely by tliotio whoso Individual interest it will be to promote tho development, especially of tliu Mainland. Thero will ho no slackening of the energy hitherto dis* played in tho management of tho establishment, and its patrons may rely upon receiving full value for their money. The Com mn an will continue to be entirely independent in both Dominion and provincial politics, nnd will devote itself to tho advancement of sncli schemes as may bo considered in the public interest. The concern is now entirely separate from any other business, tho book aud stationery establishment in this city having been taken over by Mr. T. R. Pearson, who will continue to carry it on in his own name and for his own benefit. It is desirable thnt a daily newspaper should be maintained in this city, and the now company asks for public patron* age ou the ground that it is engaged in an enterprise calculated to promote the public welfare It aska that the Columbian bo judged on Its own merits and supported only so long as its policy is enconsistt with its professions.

Thore was some difficulty at first in obtaining tho names of tho unfortunate men, and it was reported that ono of them was a saloon-keeper in this city.

Mr. Yockilo, who keeps a ranch near tho river, was crossing it in a small boat in company with his wife and child. It is not known how tho accident occurred, but the first intimation pf the disaster was given by Indians, who reported that they saw the boat, bottom up, floating midway in tho stream down the river towards the rapids, and that Mr. Yockilo's small dog was sitting on it, howling piteously. Whon near the rapids tho dog jumped and swam aBhoro. No trace of the occupants of the boat wus discrnible nnd it was nt once surmised that they had been drowned by tho upsetting of the boat, and that they were probably unable to reach tho shore and wero dashed to pieces on the rocks in the rapids.

Mr. Daley has just come from Granito Creek and brings news of a mining excitement nt Rock Creek, near Keroineus', where a ledge of very rich gold quartz has lately been discovered. If the reports aro not exaggerated tho finders of the ledge, one of whom is Mr. Finnoy, a Cariboo miner, are to bo envied. Mr. Douglas, a representative of nn American syndicate, has examined the ore and ollered Mr. Finney and his partner §75.000 spot cash for their claim, which these gentlemen promptly refused. The ore is of the very richest kind, somo of it being almost a mass of yellow gold, and when broken by the hammer the pieces will hang together by numerous shreds of the valuable mineral. Tho discovery has caused intense excitement and miners are flocking in groat numbers to the spot, and claims are being located by tiie dozen. Almost every white man at Granite Creek has deserted thnt place, and will try his chances in the new El Dorado. Fire at Centrevlile. The Pleneer Hotel I. Bnrnril nml Muuy Innate. Narrowly Escape.

Jubilee Sunday School Picnic and Excursion. While our American cousins have so nobly and heartily entered into the jubilee celobratiotiB of thisyoar,paying tributes of luve and honor to Briton's worthy and beloved Queen Victoria, we, as Canadians, take delight to not only do honor to our own distinguished 1st of July, but to gladden the hearts of Chilliwhack's American visitors by observing the 4th. On the, lovely sunshine morning of last Monday 11 largo -'number of all ages aud sizes assembled at Chllliwhack landing to await the arrival of the William Irving to convey them to the prettily located town of Hope on the Fraser River, the boauty of whose groves and walks charm eye and invite the visitant. After waiting for the unloading of freight, two hours later than the time specified, the whistle gave the signal and off tho steamer floated with her Union Jacks waving in the breeze. Tlie afternoon was pleasantly spent in social converse, vocal and instrumental music, and admiring nature, in all her mountain and rill grandeur. But notwithstanding the enjoyment experienced on tho water we were all desirous of arriving at Hope In time to take in the beauty of the surrounding* before the shades of evening drew the curtains, An apparent needless delay of half an hour to take on wood was an unexpected exercise on the patience nf some on board. As we nearcd the destined port, the organist resumed her sent on the front of tho steamer, surrounded by happy hearts and glad voices, who struck up ** We aro Coming," and " God Save the Queen." Whilo we guzed at the shore lined with whites, Ohincsoaud Indium ready to hail our approach, our thoughts wus absorbed with the dear absent face aud viicimt face of one. who a year tuzo could have extended & loyal and coidinl welcome to his many Chilliwhack friends, but, while Uope lias lost the loved and true, tho heaven above ban gained. As soon as the gang-board was ox- tended, the joyous party sought the shore, scattering tn the groveB and rivulets, Niunii riding and more walking, many culling ou friends, admiring flower gardens, Ac, It. wob with regret thnt we learned tho absence of ono of the leading families of the town who would havo spiritedly joined in the commingling. Un account of tho late hour of arrival the excursionists partook of refreshments on tho boats, n large spaco being granted for table room. The evening was pleasantly passed, eome resorting to private homes, "making melody with their hearts unto tho Lord " in sacred song,.with piano accompaniment, while a larger number engaged in sacred aong on the boat, The children having tho use of tho deck, and tho evening being propitious, enjoyed running and amusements such as afford the happy little ones pure delight, As wo remained at Hope and so soundly enjoyed " Tired nature's sweet restorer," us not to hear the gentle whistle of the William Irving, we were not favored with the opportunity of a morning good-bye to the pienic party, whom we trust would have a charming ride down the river and safe return to Chilliwhack valley. We regard this interchange of friendship as conduoive to the best of feelings and largely corrective of selfish* neis that is apt to creep in wore communities live altogether to themselves, of the happiness of their sister localities, as well as, of the divine injuno- liou, "Look not every man upon his own things but on Iho things of others," Wo trustthistrip theon majcslioFras- re will be often repeated repeated, and that the Hopeana may duly know when tu expect their Ohilliwhack friends that thoy may be ready to give ex pression to their loyalty and extend a cordial welcome. Wo would not forget to thank the Giver of all good for His loving caro and enciroling arm of protection, aud that nothing occurred to mar or sadden the jubilee excursion. A lady from Chilliwhack remained over for a week for the benefit of rost and reinvigoration, who is groatly on- joying tho pretty walks and drives, and who is already feeling physically improved. Wo think if the people in the cities were aware of the beauties of Hope they would doubtless seek its cool shades as a summer resort aud a most desirable spot for recuperation. A Rbturnrd Hopijan. Mrs. A. Nelson, Braatford, writes:-- "I was a sufferer from chronic dyspepsia for eleven years. Always after eating, an intense burning sensation in the stomach, at times very distressing, caused a drooping and languid feeling, which would last for several hours after eating. I waa recommended by Mr. Popplewefl, chemist, of our city, to try Northrop k Lyman's Vegetable Discovery and Dyspeptic Cure, and I am thankful to say that I havo not beon better for years; that burning sensation and languid feeling has all gone, and food does not lie heavy on my stomach. Others of my family have used it with beat results. 1 Wholesale fllty Market.
