COld.-Only % degrees below zero
last Saturday morning, with a blast from
the Northwest that continued with no
intermission all day and into the begin
ming of another week Just such a
night as was last Friday night, is the
night of all others 10 let the mind go
out on tour of euquiry-go as an an
gel would go, out from the heavenly
places, coming to the lowly aud strick-
en- with consolation and comfort. We
don't mean to ust sit still by your
glowing FIRE and think how cold it
must be for old Jones, or how Widow
must suffer on such n night as
this" but let your thoughts, like a
'forlorn hope" in an attack upon a
stronghold, examine, recouuoiter, even
though they be crucifed in so doing,
and when they come back to you
with o er true tales of punched and tree
zing humanity, then go yourself with a
pocket of good things, or an ak where
with to make the old dilapidated CRATE
to glow with rudy Goals. That's re-
ligion. 1t isn't necessary that meet
ing house spire be mixed up with it,
though that don't hurt any if you keep
your minister paid up and comfort
able as you ought, OF course this don t
apply to as here. Not bit Are y2u
feverish, you who read this? lfso
just imagine your self seated astride
the weather cock Of either church stee-
pie or clinging to the cross of the
Catholic spire, on such night as last
Friday ushered in, arrayed in linen
coat, cotton socks, chip hat and cotton
gloves, and your summer Of discomfort
will be changed to a glorious winter of
consolation.

MONEY STEADY.
The money market was active but comparatively
steady. The bulk of the days business was at per

other. Translated into more usual terms the rates
for money to-day ranged from to II per cent.

Foreign exchange was nominaly unchanged, but
for prime bankers sixty day sterling and 1885 for
