Hului-dny Morning, June «. ltttt, oiirreiit Events and Oiilnloiis. Tlie experience of the hist two months lias taught the CuniuIiaiiK tlmt the Indians do not require much encouragement to join a rebellion, and that when they are on the war pnth they nre treacherous, lirutiil and relentless, thoir post fair treatment by the Canadian government apparently not inspiring a spark of gratitude in the savage breast.—Montreal Herald. India has in no manner relaxed her gigantic preparations for war. The policy now being pursued in (hat country evidently is to be prepared for any future contingency. Lord Dulierm's suggestions in almost overy instance aro being carried into effect. 80 strong is India in her fortifications, and so perfect her army organizations that be is of the opinion that India alono can now defend her mighty empire. An era of railway development is to bn inaugurated, a loan of §50,000,000 is proposed for railway construction which will enable the government to mass troops on tho northwest frontier as readily as Russia can mass hers from the Caucasus, Three lines are proposed west of the Indus, and another line on the east bank, The line up the liolmi pass will be opened to Mach next month, shortening the distance to Quettab by forty miles, Abundance of military supplies have been sent to Quettab and Hindu. Quettab secures the Bolan pass and overlaps tlie Afghau frontier. From there to Candahar the route lies chiefly over an open plain, through cultivated fields studded witli villages. There are no serious ditlioulties to railway construction to Candahar, on the Wrgend river. The importance of Candahar lies in the fact that it is on thc great caravan road between Persia and Western Afghanistan ou ono band and India and Eastern Afghanistan on the other hand, aud its possession will bring England within easy striking distance of Herat. Tlie Khan of Kbelat, whose territory commands the iiolim pass on tbe south, is the firm ally of England -Times. It appears that commotion is again brewing in France. Such is the impression of an acute and well- informed observer who writes to us from the spot, and says that symptoms meet his eyes of the same kind as those which he observed in 1869 ami which heralded the downfall of the Empire. What will happen he does not profess to foresee; but he feels sure that things will uot remain as they are. In thu newspapers, iu the scribblings on the walls aud in tbe windows, are seen manifestations of popular feeling such as betoken a coming crisis. Written ou walls and windows are "The End of tho Republic," and the names of the Ronapartist aud Orleanist Pretenders, while the outbreaks of fury against M. Ferry, our correspondent says, aro frantic in tlieir violence. The party in power has no doubt repeated the old error of the Jacobins, It has precipitated the change of institutions without being ablo to produce a C0,',,,esP0,u'inS change in national ideas, i*n *ts uttuc'ts UP°" religion, especially, it to* Kono n,uch to° fast for its own eiuls- The women in France, partioui-.'W tll° l,eilsailt women, are still relife"10118- Ev^11 the male peasant, though, aa ll l'u'e> he is not religious, seldom J°ea.to church, and, ns a landowner (u'>I'lv" ing his title from the Revolution, has a vague antipathy to the priest as a natural partisan of the old reijime, yet looks upon his parish priest as an essential element of the commune, nnd is hardly prepared to be left with no social guide or adviser but the gendarme. The creed of Science, which the new Jacobins wish to install by force iu placo of Catholicism, makes almost as little way among the masses as did the Theophilanthropy of their predecessors, and the demoniac blasphemies of their extreme satellites must be revolting to every mind iu which r particle of reverence, or even of decency, remains. Tho instability of the party government, also, cannot fail to mako a vast number of quiet citizens sigh for any settlement which may seem likely to be permanout, and to promise security to society and industry. What, sueh people naturally nsk themselves, can bo worse for us than a government which is upset by a tornado twico a year I To a revolution, therefore, tho desire for rest seems to be leading; and the restlessness points in the same direction. If France cannot disturb her neighbors, she must have disturbance at home. The First Napoleon gavo her, aftor tho troubles of the Revolution, what he called peaco with glory; that is in- The British Columbian. VOLUME 27 NEW WESTMINSTER, B. C, SATURDAY, JUNE G, 1885, NUMBER 45 ternal tranquility compensated by filibustering aggression upon Europe. But glory is not now so readily attained. JYance is girdled round with strong and united nations, and tho Second Napoleon found that be had fallen into an anachronism in checking bis trunks for Berlin, The indispensable febrifuge has now to be sought in remote China, and even thero is no longer gathered with ease. It can hardly be gathered with ease anywhere, if a single reverse to the French anus is sulliciont to overturn tlie government whicli is conducting the war. Napoleon tlie First, unliko M. Ferry, could lose a wholo army without being ejected from power. Thc Republic, in a word, is in some danger, and appeals to the factions in the Assembly to suspend then- strife, if they would savo the com monwealth. When did a faction listen to such an appeal 1—The Week. Dominion Lands. On tlie evening of tho 19th May, in thc Commons, Hun. Edward Blake, in discussing tho forty-mile belt, Dunn nion lands, in this province, said; 1 wish once again tu cull attention to the fact that tlio question whioh I put with reference tn the correapundonco botween the Canadian Paciliu railway aud tlie government, and as to tlio 40- inile railway belt in British Columbia, have not yet houn answered. Sir John A. Macdonald—With reference to tho 40-milc railway bolt, I have received this memorandum: "Tlio government hava received from Mr. Picicu S. Hamilton, a well- known journalist nf Nova Scotia, but uow, it appears, residing in British Columbia, a iiioiiiiitinl address to bis excellency the governor in council respecting tho claims of squatters within the unsurveyed portion of the railway belt in British Columbia, Mr Hamiiloii, iu the memorial in question represents himself ns secretary to 1 mooting held at Port Moody, at which the resolution.'* contained iu tiiu memorial wero adopted. In reply, Mr. Hamilton waa furnished with 11 copy uf tho Dominion Lands Aet, thu provisions of which, he was informed, in an far as they arc applicable, would bo extended to British Columbia. Hu was further informed that it was the intention of tho government to protect buna tklo squatters upon agricultural laud, within what is known as the railway licit in British Columbia, and tliat surveys of tlm belt woro then, as they aro now, being prosecuted undor instruction from tho Department of tho Interior, and so soon as thoy wero RUtticiuntly advanced to per mil uf claims being adjudicated upon, such chums would ho at once disposed of. The surveyor-general of Dominion lauds is now, ami has buuu for some timu, iu British Coiumbin, personally supervising the prosecution of those surveys. Tho government have no means of knowing how many people have settled on the unsurveyed lands in tlio belt, and there is no reason why there should hu anxiety or discontent among these settlers The regulations for thu survey, ad ministration and disposal of theae lands havu been adept ed by tho governor in council, and pub lished in tho Canada Gazette and British' Columbia Gazette} and, as already stated, tho surveys nro uow, and were, during tho season of 1884, being vigorously prosecuted. Until surveys have been made, it is out of the power of tho government to graut patents to lands, but lhe Dominion Lands Act and tho reg 11 latin us mako ample provision for tho protection of the claims of persons settling in advance of stir voy." _^__ The Smash ut Untoiiclic. A correspondent of the Winnipeg Free Press,\writing of thu final chargo at Batouclie says: Poor Dick Hardisty was dead, and tho Ninetieth were mad, oflicers and mun. So wero tho Grenadiers, the Midlands aud tho Artillery. I don't mean to say thoy wore mutinous, but they had nearly reached tho limit of sullering and being strong. The oflicers were ovon more angered than the men, sinco thoy know tho mettle of the troops, and that Gen. Middleton was unjust in saying ho dure not trust thorn to charge. It was tacitly agrued among thu field otliceis —at lea^-L each reached tho samo conclusion--that thu next opportunity thu rebels should he charged and driven back, no matter what the orders to tho contrary from the genera! commanding ahould bu. Howard had boggod tu tako hia Catling forward, to tako it apart aud put it in the church, to do anything and everything, in Miort, to m-cure 11 victory; but ovory oii"'1' ftU(' 8UBK*!Stion was pooh-poohed or'w^hfld at, and Middleton wound up oiie conference hy saying: "My dear follm.'- four gun is liko the rest of the arti!.,^.

I am convinced that Middleton, who had ridden forward to the church (o'ir akirmiah lino having driven ihu enemy from that vicinity and into tlio ravine, whore the trouble commenced on Saturday), did not know Iuh forces were out in full, and I know ho liad said the river was to be a rccounoisauco in force. Soon it was evident that the mon and their oflicers wero determined to have more than a icconiinisanco. They did not stop nor cea&o tiring, though Middleton cried, "Why, iu the name of God, don't you ooaro Tiring7" but kept right on, and iu teu minutes the whole line, advancing to the tune of a ringing eheoi, led by Van Strati- ben/ie and the other colonels, was 011 tho keen run Into the ravine.

Lewis Mortgagee's Sale NV. N. Bole Situation Wanted This Ollice Special U. H. Goodwin i i.—— ■ lhe British (Eolumbmn. •Nihirdii.v Morning, .lime », 1883. Fair riii). A good deal has lately lieen suid on the street ahout our representative at Ottawa ncglecLin^ the interests of his constituents, and it is even stated tliat one of our citizens lately telegraphed to Mr. Homer that lie would shortly he asked to resign. It is not always manly to bring accusations against a man when lie lias no chance to defend liimself, and in tins case it seems to us wholly unnecessary. If Mr. Homer is not attending to our interests, it would not be possible to send any person to lill liis place at tlio present session, and thero is nothing to ho nceom- ph'slied, therefore, iu charging him with Unfaithfulness with so much haste. When tho session is over, and Mr. Homer lias returned to this city, let tliose who have charges to bring against him bring them before his face, In the mean time we have no hesitation in expressing tlie opinion that Mr. Homer is faithfully and conscientiously discharging liis duties ns our representative, and we shall continue to hold this opinion until we have satisfactory proof to the contrary. Much Needed Work. While large appropriations appear in tlie estimates for various harbor and river improvements in the eastern provinces, it seems that the patient people of Uritish Oolumbia must continue to suffer from neglect. It has been pretty clearly shown that by the expenditure of a comparatively insignificant sum the mouth of Fraser River could be so improved us to admit vessels of the largest draught. Only 6.10,000 is the estimate. The Fraser is the first river in British Columbia in point of real magnitude and commercial importance. It is thi great highway through which the country's trade lias hitherto been carried to and from the interior, and notwithstanding the railway it will always continue to he an important commercial avenue. t There are many of the province's most valuable industries situated on Fraser River, and the development and success of tliese industries depend very much upon the facilities for crossing the sandheads. It is to be hoped tliat no unnecessary delay will be allowed to postpone the undertaking of this work. The sum asked is so insignificant compared with the benefits reasonably expected that the government ought not to hesitate a moment. We are sure Mr. Homer will use his best endeavors to secure the necessary appropriation. United Wc Stand. It will be seen by the letters which appear in another column that the hostility to the new land regulations is not by any means confined to a few. Indeed, everywhere throughout the region affected hy these regulations, the voice of the people seems unanimous against them. Tt was stated by Mr. Hendry at the public meeting held not long ago in tins city that tiie provincial government was preparing a protest against the obnoxious regulations, No doubt that protest hus already been forwarded to Ottawa, and we hopo it has been made explicit enough to arrest the attention of tlie persons by whom the regulations were framed, Tlie protests of tlie provincial government will go in with the protests already sent by the board of trade at this city nnd the city council, and it will be backed up by tlie resolutions passed at tlie public meeting and tiie petitions which are now being signed throughout the district. Altogether there seems to be a sentiment of great unanimity upon this subject, and if this sentiment be well directed and utilized, wo limy look with some confidence for at least an abatement of the grievance. It is to he hoped the representatives of British Columbia at Ottawa wi' show an attitude similar to that which has been manifested by the people. It is to be feared that our representatives do not at all times present in thc house such nn unbroken front as they might, and that disagreements among themselves, or apathy, sometimes destroy the success of tlntr endeavors. Our contingent h a small one, but hy strategy it piay accomplish wonders. It is not always the general with tlie largest army who wins the victory. Generalship is shown in tactics, and mere handful of united forces may sometimes prove more than a match for a force which greatly outnumbers it. If the few representatives from Uritish Columbia stood together upon all qin'stions affecting the general interests of the province we should not wonder if these interests would be better protected. In these observations we do not wish to insinuate that any of the British Columbia representatives have neglected tlieir duties, or that they arc incompetent. They are probably not much behind the representatives of other provinces in point of ability or courage; but it may be doubted if they have worked together with tliat singleness of purpose which ensures success. United wc stand — divided we fall! The other Side. When people permit themselves to lie dazzled by the prospective achievements of War and victory, they sometimes forgot to look at the other side. War may bring glory to the victors; but it brings shame and confusion to the vanquished, and to both it conies with bleeding hearts, homes that are desolate, famine and starvation. The London Fiuaro has been reflecting upon this phase of the subject, and asks attention to the following observations: "Every Englishman who by a single word endeavors at the present moment to stir up angry passions against Russia "is destitute of patriotism, and an enemy of liis country. We shall not lie accused of any sympathy with the Peace-at- any-priee party; but, considering the fire-eating tone assumed by most of our contemporaries — especially by some Radical organs—-it seems requisite to inquire whether the people who are looking forward to a European war with such light hearts have realized whnt war with Russia would mean, Whatever engagements we have entered into with the Ameer of Afghanistan, we must, of course, fulfil, and it is possible that war to save Herat may be inevitable. That side of the question may, however, be left iu the hands of a now quite too utterly warlike government, an undecided opposition, and the party newspapers. Perhaps if the government had been a little less lamblike when Sir Peter Lumsden first pointed out to them that his Russian colleagues on the Commission had not arrived at the frontier, tliere would have been no excuse for their present unnatural attitude of stern resolve. Hut the danger is the obscuration of the other side of the question. Whether necessary or unnecessary, justifiable or unjustifiable, war with Russia would mean to the Uritish public the stagnation of trade, and thc stoppage of enterprise; it would make a shilling income tax, and a shilling loaf; it would mean an expenditure of many millions of money, and the slaughter of thousands of fathers and sons, and husbands and brothers; it would mean thousands of aching hearts mid desolated homes, and thousands of widows and orphans; it would mean months, if not years, of suspense and terror; it would mean wide-spread poverty, far-reaching misery, and semi-starvation; it would swell the army of bankrupts, fill the unions, and increase tint number of lunatics; for tlie few it might benefit, it would ruin many, and if a victory of the British arms might augment our prestige, a reverso would have to be wiped out in another deluge of blood." We nre afraid the picture presented by Figaro may be scouted as overdrawn, but lot any person enquire into the circu instances which have actually followed great. wars and learn how terrible are the Bufferings even to a victorious nation. About L',784 years ago the great Ben-hadad, king of Syria, came up against Samaria witli an Immense army, and with him 112 kings. Umi-hadad was extremely boastful and sent a most insulting message to Abab (king of Israel), demanding everything of value in the country, and accompanying the demand by boastful threats. Allah's reply was worthy of a king: "Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as lie that puttetb it off." Rut Ren-hadad rushed into conflict, relying upon his superior forces, and was both defeated and taken prisoner, fn a conflict between (treat Britain and Russia we have no misgivings as to wliere victory would bo found perching, but the accompaniments even of victory are too sad for human expression.

We hope the packers will continue to receive u liberal patronage. The Colonist takes refuge from our remarks mi customs receipts in the plea thnt to mention the decrease would be to the disadvantage of Victoria's trade! It must surely bo a precarious trade that needs to be fostered .by the suppression of truth. There were 1) cases before the county • court which aat in this city last Wed- ;tiosday, but only oue was disposed of.

The Guardian stated a few days ngo that the provincial secretary had been asked if the $37,600 promised by the govornment for tho branch railway would be available this yoar, and replied that he would come up and talk about tho mutter. The statement is like a good many others coming from the samo source—it is not truo. Roads.—We aro glad to learn that arrangements have beon made to put the road between this city and Hastings in good coudition, and also to improvo and keep in ropair the new road to Granvillo.

Tho witnesses for the prosecution were two men named Salmon and Brooks, who swore that they saw the liquor bought. Salmon, it seems, is a special constable, and Brooks was with him as a witness. The defence was that the liquor wus not sold to Indians at all, but half-breeds, n Pined ?50. Wo believe Mr. Levi has appeal ed from this decision.

It is nothing less I him an edition of thn Police Gazette under a new name to elude thc vigilance of the Canadian customs authorities. Tho illustrations are of the most sensational and bloodthirsty kind, and tho reading mutter is not fit for perusal. Wo have received some sample copies of this paper but would not have noticed them were it not that a paragraph appeared iu the Inst issue of the Guardian praising it without stint!

Tie Chung Yuen was summoned by Mr. W. K. Bull, collector undor the uct, for refusing to pay for a license. Action was brought under section 5. Attoruey-Gonoral Davie appeared for the prosecution, and Hon, A. N. Richards for tho defense. The caso was confined entirely to the constitutionality of tho law. The attorney-general quoted tho British North America Act to show that tho legislature had power to pass the act, and contended that it also had the right to impose differential taxation, quoting Hodge vs. the Queen in support of hia argument. Mr. Richards held thut thu law was ultra vires, and compared it to a former aot, passed by the Walkem government. That act imposed n tax of $40, and when it wns attempted to enforce it, Judge Gray hud decided that it was unconstitutional. Ho argued that thu law was an invidious one, and that legislation of this character could only bo passed by thu Ottawa parliament. Hb inude the points that it was an interference with trade and commerce, an interference with aliens, and also an abrogation of tho powers and duties of the central government, which, as part of the British Empire, woro directly responsible to the Imperial government.

Editor Columbian; —All governments seem to bo alike determined to drive the hard working people to desperation by foolish regulations, and there seems to be only one remedy, one means to bring those who have dominion over us to their senses, viz., brute force. It has been tried iu Ireland and succeeded, Witness the land net. It has been threatened in the North-west, uud succeeded. Witness the free homesteads. Let us hopo it will not have to be tried here to enforce the withdrawal of the injustice to settlers contemplated in the new regulations for the disposal of Dominion lands.—Yours, .te., One in Earnest. Langley Prairie, June 1, 1885. Editor Columbian. — Bo the Canadians think that they are to havo all the good things to themselves because they can out-vote us in tho Dominion parliament? Are they to have free homesteads and wo none . If our representatives hold together they can do for us wlmt Parnell aud his brigade have done for Ireland. If gentle means wont prevail others must. Let them make use of the l'aruellite tactics of obstruction and their constituents hero will support them. The Irish 40 turned the scale iu tho British parliament; the Columbia 7 can make it warm and mako it worth white for the jealous Kastcrns to conic to terms.—Yours, &c, A SQUATTER. Langley Prairie, June 1, ISSfi. Editor Columbian.—The information as to the new land regulations has only just reached ua iu the bush. We arc glad to sec that your valuable paper lias taken up the cudgels iu our behalf. If the men who at present represent the interests of this province in the Dominion parliament are not equal to thc occasion they may be assured that others will he sent who will make a better fight. The proposed terms, if enforced upon the present settlers, will ruin 09 out of every 100 and throw back tho struggling settlements ten years. It is time something wus done und that quickly to show Sir John or whoever is to blame thut we are not to be trifled with, with impunity. Ranch k«. Lnngley Prairie, June 1st, 188"). Editor Columbian.--If the proposed regulations affecting the disposal of tho Dominion lauds in Now Westminster district are carried into effect, not one man in teu iu the new settlements east of Langley will be able to conform to them. Rich men do not take up bush land to settle on, and poor men cannot pay the price asked. Not half n dozen men iu these settlements are likely to pay $2.fi0 pCl- ttcro, so that need not he discussed. As regards the homestead clauses, do those who framed them know what they mean ? Had a man nothing else to do but to clear his land and put in the seed, by dint of hard work he might possibly have tho 40 acros in thc condition specified by the end of the 3 yetirs, but many other matters have to be attended to which run away with the time, A house is to be built, food and implements to bo procured and packed often two and threo miles along bush trails, unless thc settler is lucky cuougl to bo on the main rond.

The mayor occupied the chair nnd Mr. D. S. Curtis ncted ub secretary. It wus moved by Mr. R. Campbell, seconded by Mr. W. Elsim, and resolved, tliat Dominion Duy bu observed at this city. Ou the mayor's suggestion Messrs. Insloy, McColl and Webb wero appointed collectors to raise funds. Mr. Wm. Juhnstun moved, seconded by Mr. R. Campbell, that the mayor be requested to invito the peoplo of Nu- natmo to join in tho celebration. Mr. Curtis thought wu hnd botter mako sine first that funds enough would bu forthcoming. Mr. Johnston said tho funds would be all right, ns a great many peoplo had already expressed their willingness to subscribe. There wus no time to bo lost. Mr. D. Robson ugreed with Mr. Curtis thnt it would be safer first to seo how the subscriptions camo out. He suggeatod that tho collectors roport to tho mayor, who would be authorized to exercise his discretion in inviting tho poople nf Nanaimo. This suggestion was agreed to, aud thu meeting adjourned till 8 o'clock Tuesday night. Fine Points.—The Whatcom Reveille at a late date saya; "Tho border line between British Columbia and Whatcom county affords tho residents of Seminhmoo considerable nmuscmeut. It is a vory disagreeable day when some fellow does not do something mean on thu Uritish side aud then slip across lo Seminhmoo—the modern city of refuge. A concern known as the Dominion Sawmill Company of British Columbia contracted debts with Semiahmoo parties and afterward intiinitod that thu creditors might whistle for tlieir pay. Last week some eattle belonging to the sawmill company strayed or wero stolen across the imaginary lino which existed between the British Columbia swindling concern nud the Semiahuioo creditors. Attachments wore placed on said cattlo by Messrs.

The case was triod beforo Justice Upson, Cluis. I. Ruth appearing for tho Dominion Sawmill company, and tho Williamson attachment was desolvod.

[Wo know of no way in which the license court cnu be prevented from issuing a license in Richmond. As the law now stands it seems thnt in any municipality where n bylaw has been passed regulating tho issue of saloon or tavern licenses the license court hns power to grant as ninny licenses as it sees fit even if every resident of the municipality should protest. The Mini Bay license is a caso in point. A majority of the people thero wero opposed to thn granting of a license, uud expressed tlieir opposition before the court, but in spite of all thut the licenna wus issued. In unorganised districts, or iu municipalities where a bylaw regulating licenses does not exist, uo liquor licenses can bo granted except on a petition signed by two-thirds of the residents. It is a great pity thnt such a regulation should uot hold in all municipal i ties,- Bn.] A lndy writes; "I was enabled to remove the corns, runt ami brnncli, by the use of HoUoway'a Corn Cure."

Boston, Juno 2.—The Herald says that iho report of the Canadian Commissioners on the Chinese problem bIiows that these gentlemen approached the subject in a more philosophic and statesmanlike manner than those of our con n I ry men officially appointed to mako a similar investigation. The Canadian Commissioners remark that thoso who object to tho Chinese do not object to Italians, or.©yen Japanese, If they object to these, too, thoy do not do so on any large publio ground, but because of some Interference which they experience in thoir personal affairs. Of such a race antagonism tho govornment should not take notice. Either immigration should bu free to all, or if prohibited or restricted, the restrictions should be based upon broad genoral principles applicable to all immigrants, no mutter from what country they mny como. It is uncertain whether tho Canadian legislation will be framed in accordance to tho report of tho Commissioners, or controlled by the interested opinions of those representing the dwninaiit pnrty in British Columbia.' M London-, Juno 3.—United States Minister J'helps was the principal guest last evening at a banquet given to judges by Lord Mayor Fowler at the Mansion house. The lord mayor, in proposing thc toast to the United States, stated that he hoped soon to have the honor of entertaining ex-President Arthur. Mr. Pliclp3, in responding to the toast, said ho hud no such claims to the hospitalities of the United States to Englishmen as liis predecessor, Mr. Lowell, had established, and therefore thnt the flattering reception that had been accorded him was all the more gratifying. Be ascribed the warmth of his welcome to the natural and abiding love between Englishmen and Americans, which was fostered and constantly broadened and deepened by tlieir great international intercourse. He assured his hearers of thn pleasure with which Americans viewed tho scttlcineut of the questions at issue between England nud Russia, und eulogized the British judiciary, whose decisions were revered in the United States. Winnipeg, June 3.—Jollyn, Riel's private .secretary, whose leg was amputated at- Saskatoon, died on Sunday and was buried the same day. The other wounded, including Corporal Lethbridgc, are all doing woll. Copts. Clark, Man- ley, and Mason arc now almost convalescent. Great excitement was created at Saskatoon last night by a report that Dumont was in a settler's house a few miles distant. Cnpt. Manley, with i) men started immediately for the scene, but on arrival found the man was not Dumont Imt a half-breed named Tortier. Tho report tint Dumont was captured at A-'siunihi-i,..* is not credited ut Saskatoon. It is believed he is hovering around Batouclie awaiting an opportunity' to get his wife and family nwny. Father DeDcn, ricul' of St. Albert, near Edmonton, with reference to Big Boar, said: "Before I loft, Big Bear was sending scouts from his reserve to different reserves around tho neighborhood. The message he gavo them was to this effect: We me doomed and will be killed one ', after another by the whites, but before wc die or disappear altogether we must enjoy ourselves us much as possiblo, and, therefore, wo must plunder the stores and kill as many whito people as we cun." Supplies are getting short at Edmonton, ond volunteers and people are on half rations. Battleford, Juno 4.—Only one courier has arrived hero since Geu. Middle- ton left. He reports tliat Geu.

(im. rium of Europe. But a quarrel in the middle of the wildest part of Asia promised to have little effect upon tii balance of power. Hence when it began to be rumored a fow days ago that Bismarck proposed to mediate in the Anglo-RuBBian quarrel, the question immediately asked was, What is he to get 1 Thut question is now believed to be answered. There aru good reasons for believing that Bismarck is eagerly desirous for tho restoration of Ismail Pushn to the throno of Egypt, und thut her consent to the arrangement, whicli means practically the extinction of English influence iu Egypt, is tho prico whicli England is to pay for Germany's good offices with Russia. Whon Ismail Pasha was deposed at tho instigation 'if England und Franco iu 1870, Germany's interest in Oriental oft'airs was very smull. During the past few years it has grown immensely. It is now the pet ambition of Bismarck nud of tho Crown Prince Frederick William to muko Germany a great colonial power, Many of her colonial enterprises aro located in Africa, uud it would bo to their ud- vantagu for Germany to have control of tho most important country on thut continent. Bismark's interest in Egyptian a flairs has been strikingly shown within tho past few weeks by the course of tho German delegate to tho Suck Cannl conference and in many other ways. If Ismail Pnsha Ib to be restored, it may be taken for grantod that it will be as a tool of Bismarck, and il is said that he hns already givon pledges to that effect. Ismail himself has been known to bo intriguing very actively for years past to secure his return to the throne of Egypt. Although nominally bankrupt by the surrender of all his property in part payment of the British bondholders, ho lias lived with his harem in regal splendor ever since liis retirement, nnd hns spent money "ike water in bribing newspapers and politicians throughout Europe to support his cause, The project uf Ismail's restoration is said to have the approval of France, Austria, and Italy. The French are impelled to support Bismarck's programme on general principles by their jealousy of English predominance in Egypt and by a belief that the interests of French bondholders would boat least ns well protected by Germany as by England. Italy is Baid to have hesitated until England announced her intention of evacuating Egypt and coolly ignored Italy's claims by proposing thut Turkey Bhould henceforth garrison lhe country. It iB furllier snid thut England is not unwilling to have Ismail restored, being disgusted with the weakness of Tewtik Pasha, the present khedive, aud half suspicious of his fidelity.

IL Pearson k Co's, * From tlie Toronto Globe, Perhaps the most artistic building on the exhibition ground is the pavilion of the Dominion Organ and Piano Company of Bowmanville. It is moreover one of the most interesting to lovers of good music as being the locution of a magnificent collection of instruments. The erection of this building, whicli cost about §1,000, became necessary to meet the requirements ot the company, which bail been cramped for room iu the Main Building, where it is impossible to judge the merits of high-class instruments. -H'hc enterprise displayed by the Company in providing suitable quarters ou the grounds for their business has beeu rewarded. The large number of visitors who call, inspect, nud purchase proves beyond question thut the public approve the provision made for their convenience and comfort. Here a crowd may be seen listening to test performances on first-class instruments made by leading eity and country musicians. Right woll do tlie Company deserve the success which thoy have achieved, The present prosperous concern had, like all great institutions, its day of small things. It had its origin in Bowinanvtlle ubout fifteen years ago, the stock being nt that time largely Iteld by parties unacquainted with thc business. About ten years go John Wesley, the present secretary and treasurer; Ocorge Plggott, the manager of the manufacturing department; and Vf. S. Russell, superintendent of the tuning department, bought out tho shareholders and assumed control. Since thnt dnte the business has been booming. A further stimulus wns given to the concern by the admission of a Detroit millionaire as a partner. Piano- making was added to the organ-mauu- fnctuiiiig, and the establishment was increased, until it now occupies a leading position among Canadian undertakings. It turns out about 200 organs and 50 pianos per mouth. These ure produced by 2.10 hands, who receive in wages about §15,000 per month. The whole civilized world is the firm's market, and they have branches in London and Manchester, Kngland; Hamburg, Germany; Adelaide and Sydney, Australia] Auckland, New Zealand; and St. Petersburg, Russia. The instruments on exhibition in the pavilion arc fair examples of tho Company's workmanship. An upright piano of burr walnut is a splendid instrument. Of square pianos there ure two kinds, n sipiare nud n square grand. The former is intended for standing against the side wall of a room, and is convenient for comparatively small apartments. The square grand is finished ou nll sides, presents n hands me appearance, and is suited for occupying a prominent position iu drawing or music room. These two instruments arc of rosewood, with a superfine polish, secured by hand rubbing with oil for hours. The touch is quick and easy, thc tone brilliant and powerful. In musical quality und appearance they nre equal to the best American pianos. The organs made by tho Company are known almost everywhere. They nro manufactured iu all styles, and at nll prices, ranging from |50 to$1,000. Many sample orgnns are shown in the pavilion, The largest, organ which the Compnny will exhibit, a double-bank pedal, is nt present at the Dominion Exhibition, Montreal, but is expected here at the end of thc week. It is arranged to bo blown by Turk's water motor, which has been placed iu position to await the nrrival of the big instrument. Tlie organs run through all grades, from tho thousand dollar instrument down to the parlor favorite. The cases show wonderful variety. Many of these ure of rare beauty and skilful workmanship. The ease which secured for the Company a pri/c at the Centennial Exhibition at I'liihtdelphia is still much admired, and is largely manufactured. Cases for parlor organs are chaste in design aud nrtis tic iu execution. The musicians who tested the organs affirmed that for sweetness of tono and elasticity of touch they aro model instruments; while visitors can themselves judge as to the betuty and style of the cases.

Tlio supposition that the expulsion of the Russian Poles from Prussian territory, where they hud settled to escape Russian despotism, was duo to an understanding between iho governments of Russia and Germany. seems to hnve no sufficient foundation, Russia, it appears, is anything but pleased nt the action 61 the Prussian authorities und is entingud in the ox- etition of a rolnliatory measure, nud many Germans residing in Russia are being forced to return to their native country. Hardly any notice i.-i given thein that thoy nre required to return, and much hardship and suffering attends tho expulsion:*. In many ill- at|incea these refugees roach the German frontier in u destitute condition. Londin, JniiC 1.—An ofiieial statement published in the Pally News to- dny from Granville to the effect tliat tho Russo-Afghau boundary question was still unsettled, has highly disconcerted tbo Liberals aud made thc Tories jubilant. Beerbouin's circular states that tho wheat crop of the United Kingdom will be 10,000,000 quarters short of lust yenr. The circular also states thut the estimated wheat crop uf Germany and Belgium will be short thia year 1,500,000 quarters; that nf Austria, Hungary, Smith Russia, and Spain, 1,500,000 quarters. London, Juno 1.— The polico are informed that two dynamiters Imve arrived in England and only await u favorable opportunity to curry out their designs.

Nkw York, June 1.—Tne Evoning Po.it Montreal special snys: Lust week the customs authorities hero seized a largo consignment of patent medicines from tho establishment of J. C. Ayer A Co., Lowell, Mass. Au investigation has beeu going on for tho purpose of showing that for the last 10 ur 15 years this firm by undervaluing thoir consignments, defrauded the Canadian revenue. It is claimed by ollicera here that tbey havu succeeded in proving thnt at least §25,000 a yenr has beon lost iu this manner and the firm dofend their action by saying that the medicines wero not compounded, nnd were therefore sent iu bulk, and valued merely at cost. An old employe of the firm testified, howevor, thut the goods wero compounded, nml ready for sale ut u price fifty por cent, higher than they wero invoiced at. The goods now under seizure are valued ut ovor 8150,000. Full of Klinrloum, FRIGHTFUL SLAUGHTER OF THE INHABITANTS. (Dongola Letter to Ltiuilou Xews.i Two men arrivod here yesterday (April llth) whoso story throws somu fresh light on the capture of Khartoum. T'uey wero soldiers iu Gordon's nrmy, taken ut the time and sold ns slaves, but who ultimately escaped. Their names aro Said Abdullnh and Jacob Mahomet. I will let them tell their own history: That night Khartoum was delivered into the hands of the rebels. It fell through the treachery of the accursed Furig Pasha, the Circassian, who opened tho gate. The gulo was called Bonri. It was ou thc Blue Nile. Wo wore on guard noar but did not see what was going on. We wore attacked and fought desperately at tho gute. Twelve of us woro killed und twenty-two retroutud to u high room, where wu woro taken prisoners* And NOW OAMBTHK BNMNO, The red flag with the cresont wns destined no more to wuvo over tho palace) nor would the strains of tho hymn of his Highness the Effoudhin bu hoard nny more at evening within Khartoum. Blood wub to How in hur streets, in her dwellings, iu hor vory mosque, and on tho Kounisoh of the Nursiru. A cry arose, "To lhe. palace! To tlio pulnco!" A wild nnd furious bund rushed towards it, but thoy wero resisted by tho black troops who fought desperately. They know thut thoro wus no mercy for them, and thot oven wero tlieir lives spared thoy would be enslaved, and the state ef the slave, the per petual bondage, with hard taskmasters, is worse than death. Slaves are not treated we'll, as you think; heavy chains nre round thoir ankles and middle and they nro lashed for the least ■jli'encc lill blood Hows. We hnd fought fur thc Christian Pasha and for the Turks, and we knew that we should receivo no mercy. We (the party 1 was willi) could not help being taken prisoners. The house was sot on firo. Tho light raged and tho slaughter continued till the streets were SUl'l'HUY Willi UI.OOD. The rebels rushed onward to the palace. Wo snw ti muss rolling to and fro, but did not soo Gordon Pasha killed. Ho met hia fnte as he was leaving the palaco near tbe largo treo which stands ou the esplanade. The palaco is not u gunshot distance from the Austrian consul's houso. He was going in thut direction, to the inagu- tiiue uu lhe KennisehjU long way nff. We did not hour what became of his body, nor did W0 hear that hts head was out off, bill wc saw the bond of tho traitor Furig, who met with his de- sorts, And uow tearful scenes took place ill every house und building, in tho largo market place, in tho an mil bazaars, There were the sume terrible scones iu the dwellings whore tho window sills uud dour lintels wero painted nzrak, whero there had been inany feuals and funtusins, where incris- au had flowed ill plenty, und wliero the wallB wore built of wuhul and tho roof built of dhooru stalk. Men were slain shrieking fur mercy, when mercy was not in the hearts of our savage ono- mies, WOMEK AND CHILDIIBN were robbed of their jewels uf gold and jewels of silver, of their bracelets, necklaces of precious stones, and curried off to bo sold to the Bishd'reen merchants as slaves. Yos, and wliite women too—Egyptians and Circassians who woro tho burku over their faces, thc rubtuh, and tho turban, and the kurs on their heads-Indies clad in silk nnd satin gihbehsand saltahs. Mother uud daughter alike were dragged off froin thoir homes nf comfort. These were widows, wives und duughters of Egyptian officers, aome of whom bud been killed with Hicks Pasha; wives and children of Egyptian merchants formerly rich, owning ships and mills, gardens nnd shops, Theso were sold afterward, some for IMO thalorius or move, somo fur 250, according to ago nnd good looks. And the poor bluck women already slaves and their children wero tnkon off, tuo. Theso were sold, ton, for 100, 80 or 70 tbalorios. Their husbands and masters woro slain before thoir eyes, und yot 1 boar it suid thero was no massadve at the taking of Khartoum! They lie who say so, and arc in league with Mahomet Achmet. Vou must, not believe ull that men coming frum Omdurman tell you. Mahomet Achmet and tho Dervishes Bond ynu fnlnu reports of everything, ami ynu believe them; then thoy laugh. This lighting and spilling of blood continued till tho sun rode high in tho sky - red, yot darkened by dtist and smoke. Tliere wna not and clamor, and hubbub und wrangling over tho spoil; cursing wus hoard till tho hour of evening prayer. Rut tho Maezr-iu wns no1 culled; uc-;thor were then- all) prayers offered Up to ihe mosque on that dark day in tho annals of Khur- ttiijni. But the history of those scones will not be written on its records; for all scrolls and papers and bunks in llio archives were dostroyod und .scattered abroad, Vet tho howling herd, possessed by ufnsoot und gin-- the screeching devils bespattered with gore, swarming about in droves and bauds, found not the plunder that thoy had been promised or hnd oxpected. Thou thoy were exasperated. Thoir fury know no bounds, and lhey sun-in- OUT FAHttl I'ASIIA, but he wna with thu Dervishes. Ho hud presented himsolf to thorn as one deserving well of honor und rewards. "Whore is the hidden trousuro of the Greek merchants and Ouchnlees; of Loontides and Georgio Themetrio? Yea, und of tlie Fruuchost Marquetj nf the Italian Michieln?" Furig wna questioned, but ho swore by Allah und by thn souls of his fathers buck to threo generations that Gordon had no money, and that ho know nf no hidden money or treasure. "You lie," cried the Dervishes, "You wish after a while to come hero, dig, and get it all for yourself. If thc Inglezze had nu money or silvor, how did ho mnke all those silver mudula wo huvuseon?" "Most of Ihcin nre of loud," Furig replied, "nnd ho paid every one witli paper." "It is false," thoy replied, "and uow have a cure; listen to whnt we nro going to suy to you. We arc sure you know where the money lies concealed. Wo ure not careful of your life, for you have betrayed the mnn whoso salt you had eaten; you have been thu servant of ;ho intidol, uud you havo betrayed oven him. Unless you unfold this secret of thc buried trousuro you shall surely die." Uut Farlg, it is snid— for wo wero oot tliere—seeing that his end was approaching, that, his words wero not believed, assumed a proud and haughty bearing uud AN ATTIIUDK OP DEFUNOB, "I curo not," ho snid, "for your threats. I lmvo told thu truth, Allah knows. There is no money, neither is there treasure, You nro mngnoons to suppose thoro is money, but if there were you wonld not divide it fairly among your follower:,—tn every ouo his portion, Y.ju would keep it among yniiiaolvcs. I have done u grent deed, I have delivered to your lord nnd tuns- tor the city, whicli you could nover hnvo taken without my help, You would havo been beaten bnck from thc trenches by the Inglueze, who, even now, await their timo to punish you, a"lit> I have accrete regarding tliose, which, if I dio, will uio with ine. I tell you again thoro is no trousuro, but you will rue the day if you kill mo." Ono among tho Dervishes then stepped forward und struok him, bound us ho wna, in the mouth, tolling him to cease his fool's prophecies; while another, incensed, rushed ut him nud struck him ou tho bnck of tho neck with his two-edged sword, bo that with ono blow hia head foil from his shoulders. Ho perished tho arch-traitor—may his soul bo afflicted. Hut us for Gordon Pusha, the mugunnimous, may liis soul bo "enjoying fuller knowledge!" "1 say Hourly ull thu Egyptian men woro slit In in spite of thoir casting thorn* selvtis down nnd praying for mercy. Furig Pasha's head waa then curried off to Mahomet Achmet." Furig Pasha wus probably a Circassian, it was the nuinu of the hou of llerkook, founder of the Momlonk dynasty. The story of theso men, us fur as :t goes, seems trustworthy. The Egyptians who escaped declare that they alotiu fought, uud thut the blacks gnvein; but nobody believes this.
