SIR PETER LUMsDEN's RETURN.

What is more serious is Sir Peter Lumsden's
singularly open and extremely damaging criticism
on the conduct OF the Ministry toward himself
toward the Frontier Commission and toward the
whole Russo-Afghan question. Sir Peter Lumsden
arrives In London to-day. His opinions have ar
rived before him. to the effect that the reputation OF
England for good faith has suffered in India; that
Rnss,a only urged the recent demands because it
was convinced that England would not fight; and
that further demands and further aggressions are
only question of time
The Ministerial and Russian organs in London
attack Sir Peter Lumsden with bitterness, which
most people accept proof that he has been and
is entirely right.
To-day's papers all publish an appeal in behalf of
Princess Louises fund for the relief of the sufferers
by the recent rising in the Northwest The Princess
says that Great Britain cannot see the Canadians
suffer without offering her sympathy and showing
them that the mother country does not forget them

Burdett-Coutts and others sign TIE appeal
MR. HARRISON AND MR. SPENCER.
The HaIrsop-spencer controversy was supposed
to have been ended by Mr.. Spencer's honorable re-
solve TO suppress the publication In America to
which Mr. Harrison had justly objected. A New
York telegram to-day says that Messrs. d. Appleton
Co, refuse to withdraw the book. If this be true
they are taking the course best calculated to in
crease the odium In which sundry American pub
fishers are held In England.

Joaquin Miller on RieI.

Joaquin Miller writes the Chicago
Times recalling a visit two summers
ago among the French in Canada. He
says:
took up my abode in the remote
little city of st. Hyacinthe, in the great
Richlieu valley, where you never hear
Saxon word spoken or see a Saxon
face, save that of traveller, from one
years end to another. | had a good
chance to study these people and i'm
proved it. l think this st. Hyacinthe
only a sample of other remote French
towns in Canada. And if this is so,
here is a people to be desired in any
land worthy and most desirable citi-
Zens for the States.
Miller then goes on to describe the
efforts he made to save RiePs life-the
letters he wrote, and the assurances he
received that Riel would not be hung.
The writers, he believed, were not de-
ceiving him. "They were being de-
ceived by the English DULLES at the
head of Canada"
After severely commenting on the
method in which Riel was executed,
and speaking of the good work Cana
dians were doing in the States he con-
tinues:
This 1 say to French Canadians
Don't 60 back at all to Canada. Stay
IN the States. You are a thousand

A Contested VIII.

The late V. p. Noyes of this city is
reputed to have left 81 100000, all OF
which goes to his brother, Julius Noyes
of New York city, save $4,000 left
him in trust by his father, which he
bequeathed to a sister. He has one
more sister living here and nephew,
who now purpose to contest the will
and have retained Judge Luke P. Po-
land and Henry Ballard of this city to
see if ways and means cannot be de-
vised to persuade the poor brother,
worth his hundreds of thousands to
"divy" little with his sister here, who
needs little pin money at least. The
result is, the estate is now tied up, and
something of a compromise may be ex-
pected. The deceased NOyes was a
banker he made money and saved it.

A Missionary Romance.

The story of an interesting romance
comes back from COnstantinople con-
corning the little party of missionaries
sent to Turkey from this vicinity by
the American Board six months ago
Among them was a DR.. Graham an es-
Unable young man, descendant OF
Robert Bruce, and a graduate of the
University of Michigan. He did not
go under the auspices of the American
Board, ..although travelling with the
party. Early last summer he volun-
teered to go to Turkey as missionary
physician. The officers of the Ameri-
can Board were very glad to gain SO
valuable recruit, but the young man
was unmarried. 1t is an infexible rule
of the American Board not to send
single young men to the mission fields
The services of unmarried young
women are readily accepted. DIR. Gra-
ham, was urged to provide himself
with wife before the time of sailing,
Oct. 3. The young man hadn't thought
seriously of matrimony. He certainly
had no specific plans made. He did,
however, make an earnest search for a

horses. Having occasion to leave the
stable for short time he left the
shears lying on the ground within easy
reach of the monkey. He had scarce
quilted the building when the monkey
climbed up to the shelf, and, securing
the bottle of liniment, withdrew the
cork and drank the entire contents.
Scarcely had the liquid entered his
stomach than he became aware that
he had been monkeying with some
thing he had no business with. The
burning pain he suffered set the ami
NAL frantic, and selling upon the shears
lying close by he scissored his own
tail off. The monkey has survived his
terrible experience, and will know bet
ter next time.-[ Eastern, Penn, Free

glish nOblemen enjoy themselves hang

John p. Towards Request.

Auxiliary letters testamentary have
been granted by the surrogate of New
York to the executors of the will of the
late John p. Howard of Burlington,
who died in England October 16. At
ter making many requests to relatives
and friends, he sets apart $40, 900 for a
statue of Lafayette to be placed in the
park in front of the university build
ings in Burlington. The rest of the
estate is to be divided equally among
these organizations Association for
the relief of aged INDECENT and respec-
table females of New York home for
destitute children of Burlington New
York society for relief of ruptured and
crippled st. Luke's hospital in New
York juvenile asylum; children's aid
society of New York, and New York
orphan asylum. He leaves $4,000 for
the endowment of the Episcopal diOce-
san school at Rock Point in Burling-
ton in case $4,000 shall have been
raised within year after his death and
in case the buildings shall have been
erected and paid for.

DeKOntski's Passport.

When the Chevalier de Kontski, the
composer and pianist, made journey
to Russia while pianist at the Prussian
court, funny error was made in his
passport. For the word pianist Peian-
itsa (drinker) was substituted. Com
ing to the frontier in his travelling
carriage, he stopped at little village
where every arrival was an event
When the officers read his passport
and found it to read that the gentle
man was "drinker to his majesty, the
King of Prussia" Kontski did not COR
rect it, and soon all the village turned
out to see this curious court official.
He was requested to show his capacity
and finally it was proposed to him,
"Your excellency, our beadle is the
greatest ,drinker in these parts, will
you not drink together that we may
know which can drink the most q"
Kontski declined and went his way
feeling that as "drinker" he had made
more of sensation among these viii
layers than if they had believed him to
be the greatest pianist in the world.

wife during the few weeks interim.
The details of his search no one knows
but himself. At all events, the time
for departure came and lac was wife
less. The American Board declined
to employ him and he decided to go at
his own expense. He selected Aintab,
Turkey, as his field of labor and he
sailed from New York with the rest of
the party. Among his fellow mission
aries was Miss Ella Bray, a young wo-
man of % years, of great attractions of
mind and person, who for some time
had been teacher in Mt. Holyoke
seminary. She was assigned to Adana,
Turkey. Intelligence comes from Con-
stantinopie to the effect that mutual
attachment sprung up between DIR.
Graham and Miss Bray in the course of
the voyage. The romance eliminated
in the marriage of the couple at Con-
stantinople ON the 1st inst. Both DR..
and Mrs. Graham will now go to Ain
tab. The American Board will now
probably make both husband and wife
its missionaries, and under all the cir
cumstances the Board might fairly be
expected to assume the expenses of
DR.. Graham's mission from the outset.

Why this Discrimination +?

The Boston Herald points out the
very evident fact that in this country
political preferment is almost entirely
confined to members of the legal pro-
fession. Others have wondered, before
the Herald, why this should be so, es-
pecially as it is not the case at all in
other countries. Less than one-fifth
of the members of the last English par
lament were lawyers. That body was
principally made up of manufacturers,
merchants, journalists, authors and
professional men. The coming man,
Mr.. Chamberlain, in English politics,
is manufacturer. In France journal
lists enjoy the chief political prefer
ment. 1t can hardly be claimed that
members of the legal profession in this
country enjoy monopoly of wisdom
or information on great national and
constitutional questions. Why, then
do they enjoy a monopoly of political
preferment P-[Burlington Free Press.

What the Monkey Did.

Augustus Long, of Bethlehem, is the
possessor of an ostrich and monkey.
Upon a recent day the ostrich, through
some manner, sprained one of its legs,
and the owner ordered his hired man
to battle the injured leg with a power
full liniment. The hired man did as di-
rected, and secured a lotion, which he
applied in the stable in the presence of
the monkey who was an intent observ-
er of all his actions. After the process
of bathing had been performed the
hired man placed the preparation upon
a shelf and busted himself in trimming
the hair from the fetlocks of one of the
