The Canadians are still laboring to effect the
organization of an Immigration Bureau, but it
seems difficult to make the thing work. In
the mean time emigration to the States is rap
idly emptyng more than one of their provinces
of laboring men.
IT is understood, says the Montreal Ne,cs,

British North America to separate from the

THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.
There are several asprants for the Office OF
Mayor of the next election in December. but
it seems to be generally concluded that the
present incumbent, DR.. Shurtleff, will be re-
elected. Although Democrat, the Doctor
has made good Mayor, and under his ad
ministraton the city has been wonderful,

al expenditure of money, policy which i.
sure to pay.
THE LECTURE SEASON.
The lecture season opens next weel, arf
promises to be very brilliant. Several differ

chance for all to "pay their money and TAKE

OUR STEVE when last heard from was "do-
ing" the goodly city of Manchester N. H. He
reports business Aourishing, all the corpora
tons running on full time and employing
about 5000 hands. DESTROYS of ascertaining if
working in cotton mill is profitable, he made
some investigations into the savings bank &C.
counts of the operatives, and finds that only
one quarter Of the whole number have laid by
anything for ''rainy day." STEVE CLOVIS
with righteous indignation as he writes that
many who have worked for years in these
mills, have put their entire earnings upon
their backs, and made no provision for times
of sickness and trouble.
Several hundreds have saved upwards OF
$500 each, but only twenty-six have deposited
over $500 each and in making these savings
STEVE pathetically observes, they have sever
ally toiled and spun and looked yellow for
many years.
The Merchants and Milliners reap harvests
for few days after pay day, and large por-
ton of the months earnings find their way into
these money drawers. But STEVE tells one
story about the way of doing things in Man
chester which is SO monstrously wicked, that
if he were not the most veracious Of mortals,
We should regard it as utterly without foun-
dation.
He says that one ofthe most magnificent
furnishing stores in the city for ladies, has an
anti-room where these delicate creatures drop
in and sip their wine and whisky, and In this
way relieve the tediousness of shopping and
their own and husbands purses at the same
time We should think nuisance of this
character would SO offend the moral sense of
the community that it would be speedily
abated.
The land is so poor in the vicinity of this
city, it is not worth while to report of the
crops. In the back towns the farmers report a
good yield OF potatoes, and grain, and slim
crop of corn and apples.
A large part of the hay used is brought by
the cars from the lower part of Rockingham
county.
The fish markets are supplied from Portland
and Portsmouth. The coal is brought via
the latter city Portland he says will derive
a larger trade from these parts on completion
ofdirect railroad communication.

cy is supplied with articles of excellent quail
ty, selected expressly for these purposes. No
liquors will be sold at the Agency except those
purchased of the State Agent, and they can be
relied on as pure and of standard proof, as GER

JAMES FISK, JR.'s startling statements in
the New York World, eagerly indorsed nv tho
Argus, are nothing but the reckless chatting ot
agambler. He feels ehagrined, disgraced and
alarmed, aud strikes blindly about him to
clutch somebody else in his fall. His charge
that the President was in the gold ring is a
piece OF impudence falsifed by his own subse-
quent statement. The only thing really cbarp.
ed upon Gen. Grant is that Corb;n mo rid ri.
sister, and Corbin was confederate in the Gold
gambling. Corbin denies all the accusations
of Fisk, but that is neither here nor thsra
One thing is apparent even in Fisks sensa-
ton declaration designed to make Rome
hosOl, shat Gen. Grant smashed the whole
scheme, and drove the gamblers into ankrupr-
cy by his prompt requirement that Boutwell,
should sell $4,000 900 in gold.
