one Hundred and Eighty.foui
Deaths.

MONTREAL, Sept. 30th,-There were
1874 deaths from smallpox in this
city during the last four days ending
on Tuesday night, besides tifty-one
in adjoining municipalities. Alphon-
so Movais and VIM. Beebe, who were
arrested during the riot on Monday,
were to-day sentenced to four months
Imprisonment. Four young men,
three named Perrault and one named
Cowan, who were arrested on st. Au-
gustine street last night were dis
charged to-day. Over 100 placards
were torn down in the Eastern Dis
trict yesterday, but the sanitary po-
lice replaced them to-day. This af-
ternoon three members Of the Fifth
Royal Scots were badly beaten by a
crowd of roughs. A firm of lumber
merchants gave their employees the
option of being vaccinated, or of leav-
ing their works. Forty of them this
morning went ON strike. They got

his presence is needed. Everything
remains quiet up to this hour.

According to the Gregonan calen-
dar, which was adopted in the 4th
century, the 3 hours, IS minutes and
4S seconds more than 365 days were
accounted for by adding one day to
every fourth year. This worked well
enough, but in the course of time the
II minutes and II seconds multiplied
into hours and days and it was found
that day was still lost in every l29
years. To remedy this it was decreed
in 1852 that Oct. Bird should be the
l4th, thereby moving up the calendars
IL days, in order that the seasons
might begin at the proper time in the
year. Since that time the calendars
have not been interfered with, but by
the same process a day was lost in
the l29 years following 1852 and end
ing in 1881 and the calendars should
be set right by the addition of al
extra day. AS we do not fee
authorized to make the proper decree
we have written these lines in ordel
that attention may be directed to thu
matter.

Resotfed. That all dispatches sent by the
Associated Press Agent at CaidWell, relating
to the status of statement OF the Oklahoma-
lands, deu4 ing that then Or now catlemen=
are holding large herds of .ock enclosed by
fences on said lands, are Wilfdily false and

colonies-was postponed until to-day. 1T
is the intention to make general move
ment on the Fifth of next March into thef

ment in such numbers that the move can
not be successfully resisted.
The idea of general organization IS.
to make arrangements to furnish neces-
sary aid to the boomers who go down
into the Territory. The greatest enthu--
siasm prevails. There is a steady deter
mination to make the settlement under.
apy circumstances. The feeling is very
bitter against President Arthur and to
some extent against the Kansas delega-
ton in Congress, as it is claimed some OF
them are interested in the cattle cases.
