A LAWYER of more than local repute
G. - by name, DIVE ling and practic-

west. had for a long time suffered the an
neyance of an intolerable bore Old A
was known to every one as gabbling,
meGdiesome creature, without grace or

papers, always gave his opinion unasked
whoever might be present, and in brief
made choice nuisance of himself Fex-
ed at last beyond measure, c. de-
termined to give the party such thrust
as would pierce even his elephantine hide.
Turning blandly upon A. one after
noon in the midst of half dozen clients,

lawyer said: = 80 yr.

up all the sweet truths, the noble self
sacrifices. which this FIRE has brought to
light! What heroic achievements! =
More than we knoB-not more than angels
chronicle. Let rs waste no more tears
over Chicago. She is not dead but sleep
eth. Hope is characteristic Of that com
munity. Manhood is struggling up in
Chicago to-day. Men are digging through
ashes TO lay hot foundations. lsnotman-
hood better than gold? This spectacle is
making the country rich and oh, the no
bic examples Of love. The Queen of En-
gland, from her imperial throne, flashes
an order to Canada to empty the store
houses Of blankets and send them to Chi
cago. That touches M heart. There Is
more in those blankets to bind CanaCa
and Great Britain to our hearts than all
Enaland's muskets and all her ships OF
war. In our late war there was some
feeling aroused between England and this
country. She has touched the other side
Of the chord now. The city Of London
gives one thousand g%uineas from its own
treasury. Thank God, there is one city
in the world that's got a thousand guineas
to gIve-whose treasury is not completely
empty. Churches and theatres combine
in the noble work. God bless the thea
tres The whole world is marching to
n tune the drum stops, and the heart
Of love beats, and that's the music We are
marching to to-day.

1t is now nearly one year since this man.
mouth Hotel was opened to the public
1t commenced its business upon a scale OF
magnifceuce unequaled in modern times,
with accommodations unsurpassed in any OF
the cities of the new world.
1t made complete innovation in prices,
combining all the elegance and comforts, and
ease, of at once the most fashionable and do
nestle of hotels, at rates that took quick
hold upon the public mind, and which it has
sustained throughout the year with unparal-
leld success.
We record with pleasure the fact, that the
patronage it has secured has been worthy its
high and increasing reputation, and that its
numerous advantages have placed it in the
foremost rank of the worlds enterprises.
We understand that no efforts will be spared
to make it during the approaching autumn,
the same favorite resort for families and tour
lists.
1t continues to present a freshness of ap-
pearance, perfectness of appointments, and
an eastern splendor of beauty and elegance
in strong contrast to most of its rivals, anC
