CoMMouoN IN THE LoBBY.-It became known
around the House hall this morning that Mr. Stead

the position. This created intense excitement in
the lobby. 1t seems that Mr. Steadman sold his
contract in the course of the last session to Mr.
Cornelius Wendell for S34 900, which, it is said he
has been duly paid. He has demanded more, and
Wendell declining to meet his demand as made he

Wendell of the work. We give the story as it is

INDA.-A league-the very existence of which is
seemingly ignored by the London iournals-has
been formed at Calcutta for the redress of native
grievances. 1t is called the British India Associa-
tion, and numbers among its members the wealth
lest rajahs, zemindars, and bankers of Bengal. 4
similer Association exists at Bombay. These Re-
formers remind the British Government that moral
influence alone can hold hundred and fifty millions
of natives in subsection to handful of foreigners
They scout the idea of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland, with a population of
twenty-eight millions, aifording perennial sup
ply of troops to keep in subsection ISL 900 900 of
people, dispersed over an area of l,466,576 square
miles" In harmony with this, they oppose the
system of pouring in European troops, abolishing
the native army, conlounding the loyal with the
disloya portion of the native population, dealing
out indscriminate punishments denying the natives
all share in the administration of their country,
and depriving them of all situations of trust and
emolument. Indeed, the national party at Calcutta
is not afraid to state that should the policy of stimu-
lating European soldiers to burn and plunder vii
lagos, and to shed the blood of their prisoners
without trial, be persevered in the revolt, hitherto
confined to north western Hindosta will extend
throughout the length and breadth of the British
dominion in Asia.-Netr York Tribune.

THE BEAvER.-At a recent meeting of the Cana
dian Institute. it stated that this little animal
has again made its appearance in many places in
Canada, and is rapidly increasing. In the north
part of Peterborough thev have become very nu-
merous. Quite a number to be found within
three hours ride of Toronto and they frequently
found in the Nottawasaga river and in the neghbor
hood of Angus One gentleman stated that in YES
pra thousands Of acres of land flooded every
spring, when innumerable trees cut by the animals
to be found. 1t is quite probable that they will
become still more numerous, since the fur of the
beaver is replaced by other skins, and the
hunting of that animal is longer a remunerative
occupation, the value of the skins per pound having
deprecated more than one-haf
From 1885 to 1900, hundreds of thousands of skins
were annually exported from this continent; but
from the latter date the animal gradually disap-
peared, until it met with only in the least
cessibe waters of the Northwest. That the species
would become entirely extinct at distant day,
has been the general belief. Hence their reap
pearance in Canada is matter of considerable IN
terest According to paper read by Prof. Wilson,
of Canada, the beaver was at one time indigenous
to the British Islands, and a,so in Scotland and
Norway. Traces of beaver villages have been
found far south louisiana.

handsome rewards. As the water recedes it is
fully expected that large quantities will be found

The Landing of Africans at Brunswick Ga.
SAVANNAH, Dec. 13.-The Republican of this
morning says that the bark Wanderer positively
landed cargo of Africans Brunswick. Jo-
seph Ganabe, District Attorney, arrived here on
Saturday with three men believed to be implicated
in the affair." named Juan Rigesta, n. A. Brown,
and Miguel Agino or Regent, hailing from New
Orleans. Mr.. Ganabe refused bal-the charge be-
ing piracy.
The prisoners were committed to Jail, and the Dis
trict Attorney is using every exertion to obtain
evidence against them. He has sent to Brunswick
to elicit information and the examination will prob
ably take place on Thursday. A steam tug was dis
patched to Brunswick to tow the Wanderer to Sa-
vannah but the shipmaster aboard refused to give
her up.
1t is reported that Collector Daridppstates that
the Wauderer has appearance ofshaving had
slaves on board.
The Republican says it is rumored that the Afri-
cans were landed at Jekey Island, and that a steam
er left Savannah and took $50 of them and conveyed
them past Savannah to the river plantations and
scattered them through the country.
The cargo is supposed to have consisted of $50
Africans. The Wanderer halls from st. Helena
but is without regular papers. We have no Con-
sui there, but she has informal papers from native
officials without seals.
