Another Bank Gone Under.

ROCKFORD, H., Sept. I5.-N. c. Thomp-
sons bank closed this morning. A notice
was posted on the door of the bank, and
signed by N. e. Thompson, presidents stat
ing that: Sowing to the stringency of the
money market am unable to meet my obi
cations as they mature, and am compelled
to suspend. Ny assets belong to my credit
ors until their demands are satisfied. Be-
heving from common experience that an as
signment would result in unnecessary loss
to creditors, have determined to apply my
assets directly to satisfy my debts. If such
course shall not meet my creditors approval
as soon as accurate lists of property and liza
bilities can be made, shall be glad to meet
my creditors in consultation as to how their
interests can best be subserved." The La
bilities are stated to be half million. The
assets include stock in the Y. G. Thompson
Manufacturing company. Ii is believed
there are sufficient to cover all liabilities.

The Canadian Voyageurs.

QUEBEC, Sept. 15.-The steamer Ocean
King with the Canadian voyageurs on board
for the Nile, arrived here last night and was
visited this morning by the governor general,
Lady Landson and Hon. Caron, minister of
militia. His excellency addressed the Of
ficers and men in well chosen words, spoke
of the dangers of the Nile, but did not think
it more dangerous than our Canadian. He
spoke the name of Gordon, whose name is a
household word wherever the British flag
waves, and he felt proud to see Canada so
fully represented in such an expedi-
ton as this. He stated that Wolsely,
who had previously been among our
boatmen when on the Red river expedition
knew what sterling qualities they were pos
sessed of and it was through this that they
had so earnestly been asked to accompany
the expedition, something of which they
should be proud. He paid special tribute
to the Indians, and spoke at some length
upon their natural qualities which beftted
them SO much for the present undertaking.
The party left the steamer amidst cheers.
The Ocean King sailed this afternoon. The
vessel presented a peculiar appearance as
she steamed off, all the men being on deck
dressed in their uniforms. The vice regal
party left for Toronto
