The JAPANESE TorEL BILL-The bill for
entertaining the japanese at the Metropolitan
Hotel in New York,-we refer to that tritie OF
"say si05,OOo," for which no items were
given,-.has not yet passed. Thehotel proprie-
tors have given the items to the committee and
will do no more; the committee on their part
deny any knowledge OF the items. In answer
to inquiries BY the reporter OF the Evening
Post, Messrs. Leland. the proprietors, said that
one reason why their bill was large was that
every day they had to provide dinners for lao
Common Councilmen and friends, and 1t was
screen Seal and the "best Of everything" oil
the time. What with councilmen, aldermen,
policemen and supernumeraries say that about
$50 persons were aided TO their establishment
while the Japanse were there. changing the
whole course Of their business. Altogether the
matter docs not improve in appearance, as time
goes on, and the Common Council are In no

GoLp IN Nova ScorIA.-The Halifax Tran
.,ript furnishes the following information in
gard to the reported discovery Of gold in the
eighborhood Of Pictou:
s.From time 10 time we have heard reports
rat gold has been discovered in Nova Scotia,
at heretofore those reports have failed to
rove true, many specimens VI supposed gold
aving turned out to be something else.
During the week we have seen and examined
,ecimens brought from the new diggings
hich have the appearance Of being gold in q
cry good quality. These specimens OF gold
I'VE been tested by persons competent to judge
no pronounce them to be OF n quality equal
California, but not so good rs Australia gold.
. he ledge Of gold bearing quartz from which
,ese specimens have been taken, is situated be
yeen the settlement VI Musquodoboit and the
,ore near the head Of the Tangier river. The
Elm of gold already discovered leads those who
re best able to judge to believe that large
uantity of gold exists there. And taking into
,ns;.ier~,ioa the great wealth Of THE province
other minerals, such suppostion Is by no
cans improbable. The rush Of people to the
iggings during the few past days has been
nmcnse. What they can do there without the
roper implements is more than we can say.
g understand that several parties are fitting
ut in this city with all the appliances for q
,ccessful search for gold.
IL is reported that from eight to twelve hun
red persons are already upon the ground look
~ for the needtul.'
