80 years In business, in which time from small
concern they have built up their present large

NEXT.-The great advantage possessed by them
of being themselves LARGE IMPORTERS OF
FOREIGN GOODS; an experienced Buyer from

MARKETS twice a year. and making their. pur
chases direct from the manufacturer thus saving
to our customers the profit made by an Importer
when he sells to the Jobber or Wholesale House
and also the profit made by the Wholesale Dealer
when he sells to the Retailer. Whereas In deal
ing with us, there is but one profit between the
Manufacturer and our customers.

LIFE.

LIFE.
Lie hath its barren years, -- Oh
When blossoms fall untimely downs
When rlpened fruitage fails to crown
The summer toll when natures frown
LOOKS only on our tears.
Life hath its faithless days
The golden promise of the morn,
That seemed for light and gladness born,
Meant only noontide wreck and scorn;
flushed harp instead of praise.
Life hath its valleys, too,
Where we must walk with vain regret,
With mourning clothed, with wild rain wet,
Toward sunlight hopes that soon must set,
All quenched in plying dew.
Life hath Its harvest moons;
Its tasseled corn and purple weighted vine;
Its gathered sheaves of grain, the blessed sign
or plenteous ripening bread and pure rich
Full hearts for harvest tunes.
Life hath its hopes fulfilled:
Its glad fruti0ns, its best answered prayer,
Sweeter for waiting long, whose holy air,
lndrawn to silent souls, breathes forth its
Grand speech by joy distilled.

PARIS, July 10.-Orchid has introduced
bill in the chamber of deputies authoriz-
ing the taking of seundings for piers for a
railway bridge from Cape Grisnez on the
the French coast across the strait of Dover
to Folkestone in England.
Intelligence from Hue, the capital of
AHnam, says the French consul at that place
has been insulted and attacked on the pub
licstreet.
PARIS. July 10.-In the chamber of dep
uties M.Challemel laIC Occur, minister of for
eign affairs, in replying to questions, said
that the French force in Tonquin was suffi-
cient for any opposition it was likely to
encounter. In the event of unexpected
difficulties during the parliamentary re-
cess, the government would Immediately
convobe the chambers. NJ. ChaIlemel la
Occur continued: 1t is now evident that
Tudoc is Frances enemy, and there is no
longer any question of negotiating with
him. France must now resort to fighting.
ii. Harmand, the French civil commission
er in Yonquin, will recommence retreating
as soon as possible after the opposition to
France had been subdued. France will
occupy only the Tonquin delta. She has
no intention of conquering AMMAN Re-
ed. 1 am able to state that pacific rela-
tions will be maintained with China.
Frances policy is to insure respect for her
treaties. China at first objected to the
occupation of Tonquin, but after the
Hanoi affair she recognized Frances right
to chastise Tudoc. The Marquis Tzeng.
Chinese ambassador, did not deny posi-
lively the understanding between France
and China in the last interview be-
tween NJ. Tricon, French ambassador at
Shanghai, and LIE Hung Chang, Chinese
commander. The latter adopted con-
ciliatory attitude. LIE Hung Chang left
Shanghai July for Tientsin, but China's
objections will no! stop the course of
France, who is powerful enough to execute
her projects, in regard to Tonquin with
out waging war with China. France de-
mands of China not to embarrass her &C.
ton. She proposes subsequently to con-
clude convention with China
with view of insnring respect for their
respective Frontiers. If China, contrary
to indications, should follow disastrous ad-
vice, the chamber will not hesitate ener-
getically to defend the interests of the
country
NJ. Paul De Cassagnac made violent
attack upon the government. He called
Prime Minister Ferry the worst of towards
and liar. NJ. De Cassagnac was censured
for his language, and ordered to be ex-
cluded from the house for fortnight. An
order of the day, expressing confidence in
the firm and prudent policy of the gov
ernment, was adopted by vote of 81

New YORK, July 1O.-The market for
stocks was hammered from the opening by
the room traders, the majority OF whom
appear to be on the bear side The de-
clines were not al ali serious. It was al
most o'clock when Northwestern broke to
130, this being the most marked change
for the day up to that time. The feeling
then became somewhat feverish and prices
gave way slightly throughout the whole
list. There were no rumors calculated to
depress stocks, but the trouble seemed to
bo that there were no orders to support
anything. There was considerable activi-
ty, with quite fair business, in the lead
ing properties. Manitoba twas again a
sufferer, and the price at one time touched
11738. Western Union sold at 8215 with
hardly rally from that figure. The
feeling at the last was stead
ier. There was quite a
demand from the shorts, who covered a
good many stocks. In the closing half
hour there was some buying for long ac-
count with good many believers that an
up turn should follow the depression of the
past few days, The recent bull movement
was favored By operators and manipula-
tors who are noted for turning financial
somersaults, and have a we'll established
reputation of being Slippery Dicks. The
decline was attributed by some to the fall
ing off in the shipment of the east bound
freight and revival of rnmors of diff
culties on the trunk line pool, the yellow
fever scare and break in provisions,
though others would have it that it was
merely from the fact that for the moment
there were more sellers than buyers.

nephew of the Hon. A. S. Hewitt, of New

LONDON, Jnly 10.-Right Hon. Hugh C.
Childers, chancellor of the excheuuer, an
nounced in the house of commons this
evening that the government hoped the
provisional agreement respecting the
second Suez canal could be reached to-
night. Henry Chaplin, conservative mem
Der for Mid Lincolnshire, moved that in
view of the prevalence of foot and mouth
disease, the importation of live cattle
should not in future be permitted from
countries whose preventive laws or sani-
tary condition whose cattle did
not afford reasonable against security
the extension of the disease. He
argued the diseese did not prevail in Scan
dinavia and British North America, and
that these countries afforded large sup
ply. The motion, he said, would interfere
with only four per cent. of the total meat
supply. The loss of cattle by disease had
in few years amounted to millions. One
of the best means of insuring a meat sup
ply was to encourage home production,
Great Britain would not long rely upon
America for meat, as the rapid increase of
the latter's population was causing the ex-
portable surplus to become less daily.
The member for Sheffield, Mr.. Mundeller.
opposed the motion. He said
one-sixth of the cattle and
that supplied to Great Britain was for
eign., The adoption ofthe motion would be
a continued cause of enormous loss to the
consumer. Mr.. j. j, Dodsen, member for
Scarboro, said the motion meant the
absolute prohibition of the importation of
live stock. The government was unable
to agree thereto, but would assent to the
appointment of a select committee to
enquire into the question of the foot and
mouth disease. An amendment in favor
of such select committee was, however.
negatived, and Mr.. Chaplin's motion sub
sequently carried by a vote of 200 to 1872,
members of the government voting with
the minority.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 10. The state
department of agriculture has received
full returns from all counties of the state
of the condition of winter wheat, July l.
These show little improvement over the
returns for the three preceding mouths.
Reports indicate that the crop of winter
wheat in Illinois will not exceed 16, 100000
bushels, or 32,O00,000 bushels less than the
yield in 1882. The condition of winter
wheat in the northern counties was five per
cent. better July l than a month
ago, and gives prospect of 81 per cent.
of the average crop. In the central coun-
ties the yield will be less than two-thirds
of crop. The most discouraging reports
come from the southern portion OF the
state, which usually produces the bulk of
the crop, or Ga per cent. less than last
years yield. 1t is quite unusual to have
less than an average yield per acre in any
of the southern counties.
CHICAGO, July 1O.-The Farmers Re
rieaO in its issue lof tomorrow will publish
an exhaustive report on the condition of
the crops based on return from over 1000
points in the west and northwest. A gen.
eral change for the better in all crop pros
poets hos taken iplace during the past two
weeks owing to cessation of rains and the
advent of hot weather. The last week or
two combined seemed to bring forward
late corn and push on spring wheat and
oats. The weather has been very fine for
early winter wheat harvest, and the crop is
now going into stack. The spring wheat
and oat crops are unusually promising,
and are now nearly assured. 1t is belived
the corn crop is rapidly coming up to it's
condition in 1882.

MADRID, July 1O.-In the chamber of
deputies a debate raised by the Demo-

begun. Dominguez among other speakers
attacked the government as not being
liberal enough. He declared that his party
only accepted the constitution of 1876
with view of revising it on the lines of
that of 1869. The prime minister in
reply said, he was willing to embrace
even the extreme Democrats among the
liberals and to introduce by organic laws
the most liberal reforms, but he thought a
change in the constitution not necessary
for this purpose. He was not opposed to
g change in the constitution if expert
ence showed it necessary.
