One of the principal topics of discussion at the late Imperial conference was the propos- ed trans-Pacific cable between British Col- umbia and New Zealand and Australia. The strong representations made by the colonial delegates, headed by Mr. Sandford Fleming, who may be considered the father of the scheme, in favour of its adoption has led the Imperial authorities to thoroughly consider the matter of afurvey. The Do- minion Government has recently received an intimation that the British Government cannot undertake the cost of a special sur- vey unless some guarantee is given that the cable will actually be laid. ' In view of this decision, Mr Fleming a few days ago wait- ed on Minister Foster and urged that Can- ada’ should take the initiative in proposing to the other colonies the making of a survey, suggesting that the Dominion‘s proportion toward it should be the loan of a vessel. Mr. Foster was favourably impressed with the proposal, and if his colleagues are agree- able the Australasian Government will be asked to co-operate in the scheme. AMERICAN. Robt. A. West was fined $2,000 at Detroit last week for opium smuggling. A New York Anarchist declares that to save his ,condemned brothers in Chicago In Montreal a. few days ago, an interes‘ing find was made in connection with the old Portuguese Jewish Synagogue, now being pulled down. While the corner stone was being moved from its position a small lead casket with "1835" stamped on its face was noticed, with a. number of ancient and mod- ern coins lying on top of it. Amongst these were coins of Spain. Portugal, Great Britain, and the United States; and some early Spanish coins which are supposed to have been brought out by Jewish colonists. They are in good state of preservation, although some of them are dated 300 years ago. On opening the casket a. package wrapped in helium was found, containing an inscription dated 1777. It showed that the first Jewish Congregation inCanada was formedin Mont- real in that year. A number of copper plates were also found, and a copy of the Montreal Herald and Homing] Courier of date June, 1835. A dispatch from San Francisco says : ~The agents of the United States Transcontinent al roads are beginning to realise the fact that the Canhdian Pacific railway is not en- tirely depending on the advantages given to it by Congress through the Inter-State Com- merce bill. Indications are clearly appar- ent that the Canadian road has live agents in New York, Chicago and other Eastern cities, The steamer Mexico which arrived last week from Victoria, B. 0., brought seven earloads of miscellaneous freight, all of which came from the East by way of the Canadian Pacific. ' Passenger business east and west bound is also good, and Agent Soern, of the Canadain Pacific road, is in addition securing his shrine of the'A-ustralian business, much to the discomfiture of the Burlington road, which has hitherto practiâ€" cally monopolized it. Mr. Charles Maguire, shipping merchant of Quebec city, Lhas been. firrested, on a capias of $17,000. The firm of J. & W. Ma- guiré, of which the prisoner is a member, failed for half a milli n dollars some time ago. " It is alleged by t e trustees of the es- tate that a few days before the failure Charles Maguire, then representing the firm in New York, purchased a. ship for $17,0 .0 and drew on the firm here for the amount, subsequently transferring it to a German Jew in New York, but notwithstanding that, the members of the firm in Quebec entered the ship amongst their assets. It is alleged that Charles refused any satisfaction. He only arrived a few days ago in Quebec, and proceedings for his arrest Were. taken at once. He is now held in default of $17,000 bail. The Mormons intend to obtain a. foothold in the Canadian North “lest. Twelve fami- lies have settled in Southern Alberta, and it is thought that others will settle shorth near Medicine Hat. It is said that the Mormon rulers hmie been in correspondence with the Canadian Government on the subject and that the answers they received Were not such as to prevent their endeavoring to ef- fect their purpose. If the Letter Day Saints wish to establish any settlements in Canada they must leave behind them polygamy and all organised immorality. HOME. Applications are pouri in from all parts hi the country from men esiriug to enlist. for service in “ C" Buttery, British Colum- bia. Sir Arthur Blackwood, who has just re- turned to Montreal after a tour over the Canadian Pacific railway to the Pacific coast, states that in his opinion the C. P. R. route for the mail service to Japan and China would save little in point of time over the Suez canal route, its advantages beingr national rather than postal, but ,admitted that it would be of the utmost value as an alternative route in case of war or European complications. iIndlan hammers iu the North-“'est Terri tories have done remarkably Well this year and those of ()1 ooked Lg’ke will be keen com petitors at the forthcoming agricultural con ventlon. It appears to be definitely sewed that fifty miles of the Northwest Central rail- way will be built this year, probe.ny in order to save the charter. In is rumoured that Mr. J. H. E Secretun, w'xo recently visited Orcawa, has‘been appointed engineer of the line. Mr. Sproule fqueported to have been awarded the‘contrach for-building the fifty mileé. The corner stone of the new synagogue for the Spanish and Portuguese ctmgrega» tion in theweat end of the city of Montreal waéhid onThnrsday afternoonmf 22nd inst, , by Mr. Gersham Jose h, the repxeaentative or one of the oldest} ewish families in the city. The new synagogue will be in the Egyptian style of architecture, and will be one of the most handsome Jewish places of worship in North America. Hon. Mr. Gingms,‘Legislative Councillor 84 years of age, Was married in Quebec on the 'Z‘Zud, to Miss Gadbout, of St. Lawrence, aged 28 years. Mgr. D'herbomcz. of British Columbia, who has been a. guest of the authorities at the College nf Ottawa. {pr some days, has left for the \Vest, accompanied by ten priests, who will devote their fling. to missionary labour among the Indiana. beast of the Rev. Fathers are from France, on y three out of the ten being,7 Canadians. THE WEEK'S NEWS. To Care 3. Corn. lThere is no lack of so-called cures for the common 8.111 191;; known 3.5, gonna. The vege-l table,unima,' and mineral kingdoms have been ransacked. for cures. ‘It is a. simple nmfiter to‘remove cor'ns without pain, for if you will .go'to _any dmggist or medicine dealer and buy a. bottle of Putnam’s Painless Corn Extractor and apply it as directed the thing is (10119., Getg “Putnam‘s,” and no other. The coroner’s jury in the case of the vic- tims of the Exeter theatre fire has rendered a. verdict that they came to their death through an accident, but biames the architect of the building for not providing sufficient means of exit, and censures the authorities for not having this defect remedied. According to the most recent figures the Channel Islands are hardly a source of profit to the British em ire. The total receipt from all the Islam for the last five years were about £500 below the expenditures, the Isle of Sui-k contributing the magnificent sum of 125. 63. towards the maintenance of the English Government. _ > L The armorclsd barbette fast cruiser War- spile, which cost the British Government half a. million sterling and proved a. failure, is to be employed as a. training ship for boys. She will be the most expensive of the kind possessed by any power in the world. It is officially stated in Constantinople that the Bismarck‘Kalnoky interview did not result in favor of a settlement of the Bulgarian question, Count Kalnoky not con- curring with Prince Bismarck’s views as to the removal of Prince Ferdinand by pressure 11an Bulgeria. Dr. Mackenzie was reported recently to be at Milan inquiring as to a. suitable health resort: for Crown Prince Frederick William of Germany, Toblach having become too cold. The German physicians aver that Dr, Mackenzie is far too sanguine regarding the Prince's condition. The coroner’s jury in the case of the Mid- land railway accident, on the 22nd inst, rendered a. verdict of man-slaughter against Taylor the engine driver. and the fireman of the express train from Liverpool. The Naval Department, after a. long series of secret trails, has just adopted an automa- tic torpedo which passes throngh Water for four hundred yards at the rate of ‘27 knots an hour, steered with absolute certainty and set to remain at any depth. Ardhbishop Welsh has issued a pastoral in which he says he hopes the people will refrain from violence and continue in the paths of justice. Such a course only, he says, will bring peace to Ireland. ' The magistrates of Exeter have issued a summons to the lessee of the recently burned Theatre Royal, calling him to accc unt for a. breach of the building law regulations. Financial houses in Paris have subscribed for 48,000,000f. worth of shares of the Sim- plan Tunnel Company. The London Standard accuses Mr. Mich- ael Dwitt of-cowardice in leaving Ireland at present. ' A French Cabinet Council has been held to decide upon the expediency of expelling the Orleanist Princes. Ml. Parnell'is recruiting in the South of England, and has not been seen by his col- leaigueg s_i_1_ic_e the progqgatipn of Parliamezit. Much ill-feeling still exists between the English and French fishermen in the North Sea, and the presence of British cruisers continues necefisary. There was great excitement in Toledo last week owing to an immense oil confla- gration in the Wood County‘roil fields. The fire was caused by an explosion in the Park- e1 well No. 1, the greatest oil well in the world. The oil caught fire from the engine and rapidly spread to the other derricks and tanks. At the time of thelexplosion, without warning, 8. column of blue flame or smoke, shot up into the air at least a thousand feet, and extended over 'acres 'of ground. The heat was so intense that it‘was impossible to approach nearer than half a. mile. It could be plainly felt two miles away, and the sight of the burning well was visible in Toledo, thirty miles distant, One of the drillers was caught in a. whirlwind oi smoke or flAme and Wes so badly burned that no hopes were entertained of his recovery and other drillers it was feared had perished in the flames.- ‘ ' -- from the gallows he even to firing a. city.’ Threé thousand people are going into Kan- sas every day. Is it any wonder it booms ‘3 Never before in the history of the Suite has the population grown so rapidly, unless it was in that time just after the war, when emigrants tumbled over each other in their haste to enter the land of promise. All the crops on the bottom land between Mammoth and Benson, 'Ariz., have been destroyed by the recent floods. Fields of growing can: and Corn are now but a. bed of sand. Such a rush of waters has never before been known. It will take several years before the ranches can recover from their losses. Amammoth salt company, composed of all the salt manufacturers in the United States, is about to be formed. It will be known as the National SJJ‘ Union, and will be the head-quarters for the salt supply of the whole country. The object of the union is mutual protection, audio keep up to the prices so as to be able to compete witx foreign manufacturers. The organiza- tion will be composed of 63 companies. A lawsuit which came to a conclusion in Atlanta, in“, a few days ago involved the question of the ownership of not only a. lot of mules, horses hogs and cattle, but of sixty slaves as well. The suit was institut- ed in the year 1859, but was never tried nn< til this year. The value of the property in question was over $50,600, and thesnit was brought upon a. written transfer ‘of it signed Sept. 13, 1858. On the same dayâ€"(22nd Sept.) of the present month a. jury set the transfer aside and rendered a. verdict for the defendant. In the meantime the mules, horses, hogs and cattle had died, the negroes had been set free, every lawyer originally in the case except one had died, nhn had grown grey waiting to testify, and children had been born and raised, after the case was brought, to sit upon it as jurors. Superintendent Homer, of the Kansas Silk Station, at. l’dubody, has given away 100,000 mulberry trees to be planted in Western Kansas. Mr. Homer advocates the planting of Russiah mulberry"trees in Western Kansas, not only for'forest pur- poses, but: chiefly for food fqr silk worms and thus [my the foundation for 'an import- ant Kansas industry.
