The closing of mills and worksE ops
consequent upon heprevalence OF the
smallpox epidemic in Montreal has
created great suffering among the pop.
ulation of that unfortunate city. 1t
is said this stagnation in business is
costing Montreal So, 900 day for the
support of its poor, and that the ex-
penditure is likely to run up into the
millions. One result of this poverty
and distress is to drive large bodies of
French Canadian paupers over into
the United States. Drs. Cohn and
Watson, of the New Hampshire
board of health, have investigated the
immigration of paupers from Mon
treal, and say that within the past
month no less than SIX hundred have
landed in the city ofManchester alone.
They invade the mill towns, and every
where offer to work for much lower
wages than are usually paid American
operatives. 1t is believed that large
exodus will occur during the coming
winter, and how to lawfully prevent it
is question with the New Hampshire
authorities.

In the matter of the Marine Bank
of New York, and the firm of Grant &
Ward, anew suggestion has been made
by United States District Attorney
Dorsheimer, which is, that under the
statute of New York, the immense
sums paid as bonuses by Ward and
his associates to those who loaned
them money can be recovered. There
is no question as to the law; the stat
ute is explicit. He estimates that
nearly seven million dollars can be re-
couped. This is an enormous amount:
considered as a usurious account, but
there is no question as to the fact oil

District Attorney.

Bradstreet's journal notices at
length new process of lighting and
heating that promises to work revo-
luton. 1t is a fuel gas that yields the
greatest amount OF heat and light for
the cost of materials. 1t is claimed
with apparent reason that this fuel
will cost 1Oc. to 15c. per 1000 cubic
feet only, and that it gives to one ton
OF anthracite, the economic value OF
ten tons of such coal burned in the
usual way. Stating the cost of such
coal to the personal consumer at Sc
per ton, the saving is the difference be-
tween So and $50, or the respectable
sum of S54. And to effect this econo-
my it is only necessary to construct a
q machinery plant costing $4,000 to
$4,000, according to the number of
dwellings or business places to be sup
piled with heat. An adjunct appa-
ratus, or the same one used alternate
ly, can furnish illuminating gas to the
same consumers. The processes are
detailed and it is asserted that there
exists no doubts of the complete sue
cess of the new invention. Its value
will be at once appreciated by reference
to the above figures.

Bishop Berkeley to Have a Statue.
1t is a little more than century
and half since Bishop Berkeley was
appointed to the see of Cloyne, and al
last monument is to be erected to his
memory. 1t will be set up in the
course of the present month in the
cathedral in which he often otficiated,
and if the recognition is tardy, at leasl
the homage comes from wide area.
Much of the money is subscribed from
America and some of 1t from England
1t is curious writes correspondent,
dating his letter from Cloyne, how few
and faint are the traditions of the ole
bishop to be found upon the spot. Borr
in Kilkenny, and educated at thu
school there, graduate of Trinity
college, of whit he was ultimately 8
fellow. Berkeley was an Irish pre- ate
at a time when Irish sees were Otter
filled by English clergy. He was /.
patriot, too, and a protectionist, de
local industry, so that he made a poini
of ordering his clothes and even hit
wigs from the tradesmen of the city o.
Cloyne. The see was joined with tha
of Cork and Ross in the year 1855.
and the Bishops palace is now let tt
a gentleman farmer. But still there
remains traces of the old occupancy.
A clergyman in those days not unfre
quently mingled a little knowledge O.
medicine with little knowledge O.
theology-the herbal lay on the shell
with the concordance. 1t is reported
of the bishop that he had an extraor
dinary faith in the efficacy OF tarwater'
They pointed out in the grounds O
the palace some remaining shrubs-'
row of myrtles---of his planting, th'
roots of which he carefully tarred be
fore the clay was shoveled over them
For twenty years he held the see o
Cloyne, and when he left for England
in 1852, there is contemporary recort
that ..his neighbors and the countr'
folk, with sorrow in their he arts, ac
companied him to the ship and watch
ed it's white sails as they disappeared
behind the rising shores of Spike. ~

LITTLE THINGS.
A simple rhyme, a childish grief,
A blossom on a lovers tomb,
A bud exnandinp into leaf

A simple rhyme, a childish grief,
A blossom on lovers tomb,
A bud expanding into leaf,
A dewdrop in clover bloom;
How sweet, how sad, how wondrous fair,
How soon forgot, how quick to fade!
The song, the bloom, the infant care,
Pass like the play of sun and shade;
But in their passage quicken thought
As sunbeams melt on field and plain
And leave their slightest impress wrought
In blooming grass and ripening grain,-
And though each individual form
Grows indistinct its glow remains,
A halo round us in the storm,
A genial warmth that fills our ven
The critic comes with awful frown
To crush the poet, like gnat;
Frosts nip the tender blossoms down,
And childish griefs, for this and that
Are merged in Sorrows large estate,
That widens round our frosted heads;
And yet the varied web of fate
Is woven of such slender threads.
The little things of time are most
Secure of influence, prom Sc, power:
The flying seed, the insect host
Dissolving dew and transient shower;
They multiply, build up, tear down,
And write their excellence aud grace
On arid waste and mountain brown,
I'LL nCught is bare nor commonplace.
So little murmurs, joined in song,
Light bubbles that in music break
When youth is glad and days are long
In low, soft ecstacies, may wake
The living cho ds of that sweet Tyre
Which tremb es in the human heart
And prompts the genius to aspire.
The man to act noble part.
Then, Scorner' spare the little things!
From atoms all the worlds are wrought,
Peasants NAV dwindle into kings,
Or wits give birth to humorous thought;
The great be small, the small be great;
This truth holds last as death OF fate,
The humble ever are the strong.

GoLD AND SILVER PRODUCT.

The figures recently published by the
Director Of the Mint, showing the worlds
product Of gold and silver for ten years
QS74 to 1883 inclusive) are specially in.
teresting from the fact that they de.
monstrate that more gold than silver has
been produced, or out Of a total of ST.
04l, 600. 900 of precious metals. gold has
81, OS4, 0OO, 600 and silver $685., 900, 900,
being an excess Of 1927, 900, 900 of gold
over silver. Gold increased for the FIRST
FIVE years, reaching its highest product
in 1878. and in that year the score stood:
Gold sll9, 600, 900, silver sos, 600, 600, or
s24, 900, 900, more Of the yellow than the
white metal. In the last five years of
the ten gold diminished steadily, reach
ing its lowest point in 1888 of 1914, 000,-
900, or about the product of silver in
1878. During the ten years silver
steadily increased from $50, 0O0, 900 in
1874 to STA, OOo, 900 in 1883, or an excess
that year of so, 900, 900 more silver than
gold. OF this vast wealth the United
States produced more than one-third Of
the gold and more than two-6fths Of the
silver. Taking the highest yield Of the
silver product of the world we find it to
be less than the average yield of gold for
the first five years of the ten mentioned.
Taking the lowest yield of gold in 1888
we find it still sl3, 600, coo higher than
the lowest yield Of silver in 1877. The
United States promises to increase her
gold yield in future years as steadily as
her silver yield, and this is particularly
to be noticed in Nevada. Our gulches
and gold lodes are receiving more careful
development than at any previous period,
and it will not be a matter of great sur.
prise to see within a few years our gold
output about equal in value to that Of
silver.

LIABILITY 0F MOTEL KEEPERS.

Liza bAI.Irf or HOTEL AEEPEkS.
4IAccording to the Boston Advertiser
the growing tendency of trade to sell
goods by sample and the use of hotels by
"drummers at selling places have led
to the passage by the Massachusetts,
Legislature of a statute defining and
limiting the liability of innkeepers. The
liability for the loss of wearing apparel is
limited to a thousand dollars very
liberal amount. Money, jewelry and
personal ornaments must be handed over
to the hotel authorities for safe keeping
in order to entitle a guest to recover for
their loss. and even in that case the re-
thousand dollars. In the case of loss by
fire the hotel keeper is held to the ordin-
airy liability for ordinary care. "The
new law also permits and makes VALID"
says the Advertiser. "any special
contract between hotel keepers and
guests for the special care of property,
and therefore, while it does justice to
ordinary travellers. it does not compel
innholders TO maintain merchandise
warehouses, safe deposit institutions or
insurance agencies. but properly defines
their liability and places a reasonable,
liberal limit for any claim that may be
made on them for actual personal loss"
