BLOODY RIOT.
Two Factions of a Trades Union
Fighting in Quebec.
Five Men Killed and Dozen Seriously
Wounded.

QUEBEC, Aug. 15.-The ship laborers trouble
eliminated in a fearful free fight in the lower
town. A section of the society, composed
almost entirely of French Canadians, seeded
from the parent branch and estabnshed an
independent society. This morning they par
AIDED through the streets and were set upon by
large numbers of the parent society, who
opposed their further advance. There were
about 5000 ON the French Canadian side, and
not so many on the other side, which were
principally u Irish Catholics Shots and blows
were freely exchanged to the injury OF great
number. The Canadians were finally driven
back, having lost five killed and several
wounded. The Mayor did not allow the police
to interfere, as he has but 40 men.
QuEBEe, Aug: 15-(E Evening KNOTS OF men
are congregated all along Champlain street,
talking over the events OF the morning. They
express themselves determined to keep the
Union Canadian men out OF the streets and
have three cannons in position. Ihey are
armed with revolvers, boat hooks and axes,
but are quiet and respectful when spoken to.
Here and there on the sidewalks marks of
blood show where some one was wounded.
The French Canadians, before being repulsed
at Allan's wharf, were warned by the water
police against advancing further. About hye
minutes later they were in hot retreat, turning
at times to fire on their adversarieS. How 1T
happened more was not killed is marvel to
every one A dozen are known ia be seriously
wounded from revolver bullets. The process
sion then went down to Cape Blanc, where
three houses inhabited by Irish people have
been sacked by them. Hardware stores have
been entered and firearms distracted. The
difficulty now assumed the appearance of a
war of races.
QUEBEC, Aug 15.-Evening-A meeting of
French Canadians was held this afternoon at
the close of which they repasred to the plains
where they and their friends assembled in
large numbers When they were able to mus
ter 1900 men duly armed with rifles, shot guns,
revolvers, etc., a rush was made for the city
and the principal streets of the st. Louis
suburbs were rushed through by the mob
firing shots and bowling. Volunteers are to be
called out and bloody work may be expecte d.
OTTAWA, Aug. 15.-Reports from Quebec
cause great excitement here, and considerable
bitterness exists between French and Irish cit
liens.

A Short Lesson in Money.


a To print greenbaekstopa tie @bond-holder
seems clear gain to the amount of the bonds
1t has the attraction of making something out
of nothing, and the still more attractive flavor
of cheating the creditor. To take so cents
worth of silver and stamp it a dollar, and make
the public creditor take it, looks like making
20 cents on the 81 out of him. This seems a
fine transaction to the instructive statesman.
We have seen a barrel of editorials ground
over and over on this. But is this clear shave?
Where does this money go? The bondholder
does not eat it. He pays it out, and it goes in
to circulation among the people. They have
to receive the so cents in silver as 81. And the
public treasury has to take it right back in
place of 81 of gold. Who is cheated? Not the
bondholder The people are cheated. And
when these paper or silver dollars by such issue
shall depreciate, as they are bound to do, the
shave by the depreciation will come out of the
people. Moneyed men need not care very
much what kind of money is issued; for they
always make by its shifting value; but the
workman has to stand all the shaving of uncer-
tain and shifting money. An honest dollar is
the workman's friend.-Cincinnati Gazette.

The New Religion.

The New Religion is paper which eharitably as
sumes without particle of proof that the Belfast
journal has for years been drawing on the RepuDl-
can campaign fund. In the same spirit of charity
we ask from which corruption fund, the Greenback
or the Democratic, the New Religion is subsidized
for its support of Honest Major Smith?-Portiahd
PRESS.
The New Religion is one of those ephemeral
sheets which are from time to time started IN
various parts of the country by some fellow,
half fanatic, half fool, and, after a 1rantlc
struggle for existence, always speedily dlsap-
pear from sight without leaving so much as
ripple. The idea that the journal, with its
standing and resources-we may say 1t without
vanity or boasting--should draw upon any
body's campaign fund, is simply ridiculous,
and could have its origin only in an obscure
and irresponsible sheet like the one referred to-
The paper with the comical name of New Re-
: ligon was started with the avowed purpose OF
sripplanting the old and well established Gospel
Banner, which could not but look with pity
upon its puny effort. In its struggle for life it
has gone over to the support of the Greenback
candidate. The original root of its hostility to
the Journal is found in the fact that we de-
clined to enter upon our exchange list paper
the days of which were so evidently to be few
and full of trouble, and which, in its columns.
lacks every element of interest.-Belfast Jour-
