PROF. WILSON'S LEcTURE.-Last Tuesday
evening City Hall was crowded, floor and gal
lery, to hear lecture from Prof. Wilson, of
Rochester, N. Y The Professor is fluent
speaker and addressed his large audience in
well-chosen language. Belonging to the Re-
formed School of Medicine, he came down on
the use of calomel in good set phrase, and
warned the people to beware of this deadly
poison. His reIharks to the boys were timely
and appropriate, telling they must not swear
nor smoke nor chew, nor to set up late, but to
rise early in the morning, obey their parents,
and behave well on all occasions. The young
men, too, came in for share of good advice.
He warned them against alcoholic stimulants
and the use of tobacco in every form. He spoke
to the ladies, and urged upon them the import
ance OF taking proper exercise, OF sleeping in
well ventilated rooms of standing up straight
and giving their lungs fair chance for the
circulation of air through them. He pounced
upon hair oil in every form, and told them to
use cold water on their hair. and avoid all
kinds of grease; and therein we think he was
about right. He told them also to keep their
teeth clean, and be sure and not leave any
victuals between them-excellent advice
Hair eoloring he considered dangerous. Su-
gar of lead, lac sulphur and other coloring
ingredients generally used are injurious to the
nervous system; and therein we think he was
right. His lecture was well received.
He gave notice at the close of his lecture
that his consulting physician, DR.. McCoombs,
| may be found at the United States Hotel dur
| ing this week and until next Tuesday, where
he may be consultedsfree Of charge.

The COMING CoUNTRY.-Mr. T. B. Webster,
an English statistician, is beyond measure ex-
utant over the acquisition of the Hudson Bay
Compapy's territory by the Dominion He
says that the total population of the British
North American possessions is now 100000.
Canada doubles its population every 18 years
and the United States in % years. Therefore
the population of Canada, all the more certain
to increase with the additional stimulus to EN-:
igration arising from the annexation of the
fertile belt, will be sixty millions in 1885, and
soon after will be as great as that of the United
Statas

LAGER BEER holds its own in the Massachu-
setts Legislature. The attempt N the Senate
to strike outthe amendment to the prohibitory
law which permits the sale of the German
beverage was defeated by four majority. The
supporters of the amendment hold that with
out clause exempting lager beer the law
cannot be enforced. But now arises the diff
GUILTY. The claims of lager having been recog-
nized and it having been duly declared an in
noxious beverage, those who prefer ale and
detest lager, come in with their amendment
saying with some reason that it seems unjust
to discriminate against ale drinkers as is now
proposed. The question Of adding ale to the
list of exempted beverages is still pending.
The door for lager being open the whole race
of fire water spirits crowd in.

A CITY AFLoAT.-The Montreal witness
has come to hand with vivid sketches of some
of the scenes which were briefly noted by the
telegraph. The Montreal police and the Wit
ness reporter embarked in boat loaded with
bread for pull thro Ugh the streets of Griffin
town, which were covered by water to the
depth of two, four, and in some places six feet.
AS the relief party passed along the streets the
chamber windows of the houses were filled
with women and children clamoring for bread.
Men stood upon chars in the doorways pre-
ferring the same request, and boys were sent
from distance ON RATS with asimilar pressing
petition. Mothers, with infants in their arms
and surrounded with their little ones, were
calling from almost every window, telling how
many children they had got, and how long it
was since they had anything to eat Passing
through Colborne, Ottawa and Murray streets

NAPOLEON THE LITTLE has addressed. a note
to his Minister of State concerning the cele-
bration of the centennial anniversary of the
birth OF Napoleon the Great, which occurs ON
the 18th of next August. He proposes that all
the surviving soldiers of the first Empire shall
on that day be presented with pension of 25O
francs. The man of December says one very
true thing in the very first paragraph of his
communication, viz: "On the 18th of August
next hundred years will have elapsed since
the Emperor Napoleon was born. During that
long period many ruins have been accumulat-
ed but the grand figure Of Napoleon has re-
mained standing 1t is that which still guides
and protects us-it is that sOhich, out of nothing,
has made me whdt am.' Certainly, the old
surtout and cooked hat of the first Bonaparte
made the third Emperor of that name.

AND he did many wonderful works, inso-
much that his name was pronounced in many
tongues. And there came unto him, Judith,
from the seaport of New Bedford, who had
been sick for many years; and after some days
her pains were gone. She slept soundly, and
did rejoice in eating her food. And Asa, from
those which are called Quakers, in the great
city of Philadelphia, wrote an epistle saying:
o, Doctor! accept thou this money, which is
called greenbacks, and hath the picture of
Abraham, thy friend, on one end. For verify

Randall, McAllister & Co., go Commercial ST.,
cheerfully testify to the following results The
platform was loaded with coal and iron to the
amount of seven tons. One half ton was
then added at the extreme corner, the weights
used being those of the city sealer. The beam
indicated each additional weight of fifty
pounds, with utmost sensitiveness. The Seal
ers' weights were then removed and the load
increased to 1904 lbs. This being done, the
Sealer's weights were added as before on the
corner of the platform, till the whole load had
reached 20,064 lbs., the beam exhibiting the
same sensitiveness in this as in the former
addition.
