Previous to his acquaintance with Lucius Seth Huntington, he could not have mustered one hundredth part of the capital required. Of course he didn’t get anything from the Purists for the concocting of his little story.â€"Strat~ ford Herald. The little knot of self suflieient semi- somethings who have formed themselves into the “ Boston Free Trade Club” are doing their best, and with no inconsid- erable success eitherftomake themselves the laughing stocks of all sensible people. The Chicago Evening Journal thinks the club ought to be fenced in or given to some showman for exhibition. Fence them in by all means, and don’t omit Canada’s member, Mr. Mackenzie, he can be spared gladly.â€" Stratford Herald The Committee have, however. de- cided to pay the first prize to the English crew. ' Resolved-That, whereas, this com- mittee has no other option ihan to abide by the decismn of the umpire and the rules and regulations of the Schuylkill navy, in payment ofprizes, they desire to express the unanimous opinion, that the honors of the international four-oared professional race belong to the Halifax crew. The International Reéattu Committee have received from the Halifax crew a protest against the decision ofthe umpire, in declaring the Thames crew winners of the race with them. The following resolution was adopted by the honorable committee ofthe Inter- national Eegatte :â€" GENTLEMEN,â€"The Queen having been graciously pleased to summon me to the House of Peers, 1 return to you the trust which, for so many years, you have confided to me as your member in the House of Commons, an assembly in which I have passed the greater part of my life. It has been a period of trying occasions and memorable events, and if I have been permitted to take some part in their management and control, next to the favor of our Sovereign, I am deeply conscious I am indebted for that opportunity to the fidelity of your feel- ings. Throughout my public life 1 have aimed at two chief'results. Not insensible to the principle of progress I have endeavored to reconcile change with that respect for tradition which is one of the main elements of social strength ; and in external affairs 1 have endeavored to develop and strengthen our Empire, believing that combination of achieve- ment and responsibility elevates the char- acter and condition of a people. It is not without emotion that I terminate a connection endeared to me by many memories and many tles; bnt I have the consolation of recollecting that, though I eeaSe to be your member, I shall have the happiness of living among you, and that, though not directly your represent- ative, I may yet in another House of Parliament, have the privilege of' guard- ing over your interests and your honor. â€"Your deeply obliged and ever faithful servant, B. DISRAELI. Mr. Disraeli has issued the following address :-â€"- ‘ To the electors of the county of Buckingham. Mr. Ray M. P., of Annapolis, Nova Scotia, has been appointed Collector of customs at that Port. Mr. Ray was one of the gentlemen who crossed the floor during the excitement anent the “ Pacific Scandal” in 1873, and now has his reward in a fat berth. A» Centennial excursion train from St. Thomas met with an accident no lives lost. The Citizen Publishing Company, of Halifax, is composed of Mr. Vail, min- lister of Militia, Mr. Jones, M. P., for l Halifax, and the Hon. James Cochrane‘ a member of the government of Nova Scotia-, &c., &c.; and yet according to the post ofiice report for 1875, the am- ount of Dominion printing received by this Company amounts to $0174.74; being more than the whole printing re- quired by the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, by nearly $3000. This is a nice way of carrying out the Independ- ence of Parliament. After all the blow and talk about purity and morality upon the part of Mr. Mackenzie and his friends, it is somewhat humilating to find that they are no better than other people.

DISRAELT’S VALEDIC- TORY ADDRESS. SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED Also they said to their jewelers; “ In- stead of making five watches make nine. The cost of making nine is not more than five, by very much. Sell five to us at the usual price. Then sell four to the Northeudians very cheap. This will soon kill out watch-making trade." 'N ow the Southendians were the largest family and the richest. And, since the desire for pelf grows bigger and bigger as the store of pelf' gets more and more, they determined to take away all the more profitable trades from their poorer and honester and stupider neighbors the Northendians. And so they put one of the cunningest fellows they had where the road ran through the two farms and said :-“ When any Northendians come to peddle any of his boots and shoes or tweeds or flannels among us, make him pay yor fifty cents for each dollar‘s worth of goods he has, and say that it goes to keep up the general expenses of our family.” So in a very short time all the men of Northcnd who made watches, boots, jew- elry, shirts, gololshes, mirrors, glue, mowing machines, and paper had to turn farmers again, or go and live am- ong the Southendians. And then pres- ently a dreadful thing took place. The farmers at Northend had found that the most profitable point of their crops con- sisted of things that cost but little la- bour and fetched a high price. Ten bunches of radishes fetched as much as a whole bushel of corn. Four good to- mato plants brought in the price of a whole ton hay. But all these‘things got wilted and spoiled before they could get them to the Southendian homestead. And then came something worse still. It was worth $5 to team a loaded wag- on from Northen to Southend and bring it back. Now hay was selling at $11 a ton at Southend. So when the wagoner had sold a ton of Northend hay he kept $5 for himself and the poor Northend farmer only $156 while the Southend far- mer got $10 or $10.50 for' his hay. But when the wasoner had put $1,000 worth ofjewelry and clothes on his wagâ€" on, and sold at Northend, he kept $5 for himself and gave the Southend jeweler and olothier $995, so that he never felt the “ Cost of Transportation.” And then the rich treasury of Southend paid their sugar boilers money, to help them to undersell the sugar makers of North- end and so kill out their sugaries. And this destroyed a very profitable trade which the Northedians had had with the sugar cane growers of the Islands of the South. And so the whole of the North- end bought a poor harmoniun at twice What it cost to make from Yeasty & 00., down South, and sat down together and sang the song of “Hard times come again no more.” And at last some of their meanest Sachems rose and said let us ask the Southendians to make one family with us. Then the great Sachem awoke in ter- rikle wrath and said. “ Not so I Never ! lest we learn their tricky ways. No, my children. Death before dishonour. Northendia expectq every man to do his duty. Ne plus ultra / E pluribus zmum / ! Let us try “ tit for tat. ” And so they tried tit for tat and lived happy ever after.-â€"(]anadian Ill. News. Now they both very soon found that the easier the work, the more the pay. The farmer sons had to sweat all day to earn a dollar while the doctor would charge a dollar for twenty minute’s thought, and the lawyers sometimes got $5 or even $20 for a half'hour's pleasant chat with their clients. The shoemaker earned his $2 the clothier $3 and the watehmaker $5 for a day’s work so light that when the “ ox-loosing ” came, and farmers went to do their chores, their mechanic brothers could sit down and enjoy book or music. But when chores were over the poor farmer was too tired and swinked to read a newspaper, and was only to glad to tumble into bed. At meeting of Leicestershire employers ou'J’uesdav, a. deputation representing a large number of men now idle, attended and snbmitted a. proposition from the col liers to the effect that they should be allow- ed to resume work at the former rates. The employers declined to deviate from their agreement wnich involves a ten per cent. The men being aversem any reduc- tion, the dispute continues. Let us suppose that two families, the Northendians and the Southendians, live side by side. Both originally were far- mers. But in course of time some of the sons had to act as doctors, watch- makers shoemakers, clothiers &c., for it was found that by division oflabour they could work more profitably for all.

If two first-class crews had just finished their work two equally good were right at their heels. Pink-shirted Halifai was first on hand,and a little later comes Paris down the course, for she had a preliminary spin about the marshy Peter. Paris (for the St. John four won that name at. the French Ex- position iii 1867)has the pole and does 'not regret it. Now the interest is at fever heat, for one look at those eight sturdy, bony men tells that it is to be a battle of the giants. Now they are in line for a__m0ment, and all is still. Out rings the word ofcantion, then of command, and they leave that starting line with a terrific dash, an altered crew, now hitting it clean up to forty-eight, and that crew Paris, while the stalwart Blue Noses are content with forty-two. Again the one at the slower stroke goes past the one of the quicker. Yes, the far-famed, the world-renowned Paris four, who rowed Rent'orth to death, who once beat the Wards, but could not do it now---and it’s a shame ‘ they have not the chanceâ€"yes, they have found their match, for these four quiet fishermen, who never pulled a race together in their lives , are drawing rapidly ahead, and look as if they could last, too. At the Bachelor’s barge, at the island top, they have a half length to the good, and both ‘ steering well and free of each other. The Scots are clean at the half; but can they stand the pace any better than did New York, for she had done all this? “Yes, indeed, 7’said the Nova Scotian commission- er at our elbow, “ ifthey could do this you need’nt fear for the rest. Paris never; gave us a chance to test her before now ; we’re all right,” and the quiet confidence in his tone was certainly very assuring. Yes, sure enough, they can.stay, and they are staying; and if anybody is getting tired it is in the other boat, for at the three- quarlers the lead is a length and a half, and the glaring lack of unformity in the other boat becomes every minute more painfully apparent. The ponderous Fulton at strokes sits canted slightly forward, and swinging his body just a little gives the peaceful water forty-four Vicious daps per minute. Behind him sits a man who hates to reach too far forward ; but when he gets hold his back goes on with a tremendous , wrench, his head even higher than (Jam- bridge Penrose's, and he plainly doing , harder work than any other man in the boat. Short and snatchy to the last de- ; gree, but terribly in earnest are the how men, and no man who saw these four at work toâ€"day could say they could of gone ‘ faster had a kingdom been theirs to win. Thev have rowed a mile and the rugged Acadians ' have sent them all three lengths astern, while the galloping horsemen on the towpath and the carriages in the park meet them and cheer them on to the turn. Now Halifax works east and crosses to her flag; but, look at that? for. as her star- board oars hold hard and dip down deep for the turn, up shoots a mass of water off their blades all of three feet, and she is about in ‘a twinkling, while the watch marks 8m. 45s. to the turn, twenty-three seconds more than the British watermen in the previous race. Twenty-four seconds later camehhe men of the swift St. John, their stroke now slackened, but only to forty-two. As they came about they sweep out and across their opponent’s wake and now both lie well to the westward. The second parisian is tired now, but the two aft men Stay prodigiously, and if any screw goes loose in the other boat the race may be theirs yet. But that is not to come to-day, for the burly, hardy, bright-faced men trom the finest harbour an this contin- ent. are flying along at a. great pace. never below forty, and opening that gap all the time, while they steer as if by mstinct. So they row off home, beating their world re- nowned rivals very myny lengths, and ruth- lessly terminating that renown in 18 m., 113. eight seconds faster than the Thames men. ' Hon.

' “The above is an extract from the speech of that great and wise Statesman Hou. Oliver Mowat, at the banquet of the Ontario Rifle Association. Perhaps Mr. Mowat would oblige the Volunteers at large by giving his reasons for such a proposition, as the Volunteers(who, in the main, are truely loyal to the (lrown of Great Britain) are always ready, as‘ has been already proved, to fight in defence of their country. I would like to know What killing the Indians, who have been treated worse than ever Were slaves in the Southern States,-â€"yes, I would like to know what patriot-ism it would be to send our Volunteers to find something to do, to help to destroy the victims of as unjust a tyranny as ever existed, and help to build up the power of a grasping Democracy, who, if they had the least chance, would gobble us up into the insatiable maw of the great spread eagle.

Referring to the remark of Mr. Mowat at the meeting of the Rifle Association if we must find something for our Volun- teers to do, perhaps it would be as well to olfer their services to them to put an end to their Indian war.
