SPEAKINe of protocols and treaties,
Mr.. Laubouchere tells this story: "Years
ago I was in America, and went down
with the English Minister in the
United States to ANAL inn in Virginia,
where We we're to meet Mr.. Marcy, the
then : United States Secretary OF
State, and reciprocity treaty between
Canada and the United States was to be
quietly discussed. Mr.. Marcy, the
most genial of men, was as cross Is a
bear. He would agree to nothing.
What on earth is the matter with your
chief2' I said to be q secretary who sc-
companied him. He does not have his
rubber of whist answered the secretary.
After this every night the Minister and
played at whist with Mr.. Marcy and
his secretary, and every night we lost.
The stakes were very triaing, but Mr..
Marcy felt fattered by beating the
Britishers at what he called their own
game. His good humor returned, and
every morning when the details of the
treaty were being discussed we had our
revenge, and scored few points for
Canada"

THE Brownsville Clipper of this wee

The Brownsville Clipper of this week
says:
"The corps of engineers surveying
the proposed route of the T. V. & Z.
rail way, on the west side Of the Mon
ongshela, arrived at West Brownsville,
finishing the locating on last Thursday.
Many queries have been propoupded
questioning the time and probability OF
this road being built this season and on
which side of the river. 1t is very con-
elusive that the railroad authorities
would not be at the expense OF ascertain
ing by means Of large corps of we'll
paid engineers, the actual cost OF build
I. ing the road on each side OF the river
unless they messt business. Shantles
have been put up at Port Perry for the
use of the men who went to work on
the bridge at that place on Monday.
The route as surveyed from Mononga-
hela city to this place Is found to be
little over mile longer on this side OF
the river, and necessltating more grad
ing. A bridge must be built at some
point below Monongshela city, and we
are informed Godfrey q Clark, OF the
Elkhorn paper-mills, made the PROPOSE
ton to build bridge at their place at
their own individual expense. A meet
ing of the directors and officials tthe
road will be held at the general office in
Pitts burgh to act on the report OF the
engineers and decide what to do in re-
gard to it. We have been informed by
an official. that should the interested
parties on this side of the river take
stock in the road to the amount of $780,.
600, the road would come up on the
Fsyette county side beyond doubt.
Now this is q matter for the capitalists
to figure on. We want the road
on this side, and hope sufficient en-
enlargement maybe given to secure it,
