The card was written and presented to 1 the man, who shook his head at it, and, the job being finished, he arose from the chair. “ it’s all right, boys,” said he, as he laid down fifteen cents. “ I don’t mind your talk any, I can stand it first rate so long as you didn’t say anything about base-ball, third term, or the whiskcyhring frauds.” He disappeared, and those barbers sat down and thought about him. » Umwx 5" A big, green seaâ€"turtle splashed impa- tiently in the narrow limits of a large box in front of a.

A big six-footer appeared at the stable of the Toronto Street Railway, in York- ville, the other morning and requested employment, and added that he had been used to horses since his infancy, His appeal was made to one of the employers instead of the foreman, and the man shook his head as he looked the man over.

The agricultural interest in Canada was paramount, and even in manufacturing Eng- land the agricultural wealth was represent- ed at $320,000,000, the other interests only at one third that amount. This was due to the farmers ofGreat Britan having a home market. To get this home market what did England do? She protected and fostered her agriculture maniact'uring interests until she could not supply her own people, and then she threw herself open to the world. Would it not be well for Canada to pursue the same poll cy.See the Unit-ed States and Russia, they are pursuiug the same course, and the former had prOSpered marvellously.

The plaintifl‘, Annie Morley; a very interesting young woman, 22 years of age, daughter of' a,postmaster atNewa ark, becameaequainted some years ago with the defendant, who was a chemist» also at: Newark, of the age of 31. There was no dispute that there was an engageâ€" ment. and the defendant gav‘ethe plaifk tifi an engagement ring, though he hesi- tated for some time to do so, thinking it unlucky. Other presents were remitting-- ed, the conple were photographed. in 'a' group, they went on expeditious together, and things for a time went on smoothlyt‘ The parents of the young lady took no notice of the courting, but the friends of the defendant were not. so indifierent. Meetings did not occur at either of the houses, but in public, or at the houserbf a mutual friend. The defendant wanted. the plaintiff to go to America to be mar: ricd, but she refusing,r to do so, the defen- dant became cool, and when taxed with it said that his mother objected to the match, and that she was as hard as! a stone. The plaintifi' asked whether she was not. considered good enough, and was told she was not, because she had no fortune. The mother then went to speak to the defendant, and he said he did not intend to marry poverty, adding, “ You don’t know what povertv is l” The defendant has since married another woman, said to be rich. . . For the defendant it was contended that the young lady had released him from his promise because she once found him tipsy.

The central office is at Toronto, under the superintendenee of Professor G. T. Kingston, M. A, a gentleman ot‘ recognized scientific repute and a most zealous official. The internal work of this ofiice consists in the construction of the necessary apparatus; testing instru- ments before issue; compiling monthly, weekly and occasional reports from all points in the Dominion, and correspond- ing both with the Canadian stations and the Weather Bureau at Washington: Another chief function is the issue of storm warnings. A storm warning is a publication of an opinion to' the effect that shortly after a time specified, or 1m- plicd, a storm will probably occur in some portion ofa certain region within a radius ot'lOOlmiles of the port warned. The port which receives the warning must be regarded as merely a convenient point for advertising a fact which is applicable, not to it alone, but to the whole region. In~ deed, if it were certain thatthe port in question would be exempt, the publica- tion of the warning would be proper either to deter ships from running inlto the storm, or to prepare them to encounter it. A warning, or more strictly a prediction, is said to be verified when a gale of strength suflicient to be dangerous occurs within the prescribed limits, either'at the place indicated or within the distance above named. Warnings were issued on 55 days in the course ofthe year 1875. In the vast majority of cases the warn~ ings were verified, a satisfactory evidence of the advance of meteorological science and the competency of the men at the central officeâ€"Canadian Ill. News. An ofiicial despatch from Constantino- ple announces that Sultan Murad Ef- f'endi has been deposed, and that. Abdul Hamed, (who is his younger brother),has been proclaimed Sultan. The event is not among things unexpected ; it has been foreshadowed during these few weeks past aslikcly to happen. Reports from various sources have been to the effect that Sultan Murad had become a wreck both in body and mind, and in some oft hem delirium Iremens has been mentioned as the immediate cause of the anticipated catastrophe, the certainty of which is now announced. The reflection will come to us; howaver, that Constanti- nople is not a good place for ascertaining the foal truth as to the condition of the occupant of the throne while he remains such, or yet as to what actually becomes of him after he has ceased to occupy it. ‘And on some points relating to the rise, the reign, and the fall or disappearance of many of the successors of Othman‘ western curiosity receives but scant satis- faction.
