TIE BARONY OF LOVAT.
An Ancient Peersse Claimed By a Mining
Engineer.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York SUM-
A peerage case Of peculiar features
and romantic interest is about to be
heard before the Committee for Privi-
leees Of the House Of Lords. The
present Lord Chancellor, Earl Of Sell
borne, Lord Blackburn. Lord Bran
well. and some other able judges are the
law lords of the committee.
The claim to which we refer is that
Of John Fraser, mining engineer OF
Carnaryon, to the barony Of Lovat.
We all remember the story of Simon,
Lord Lovat, who was beheaded on
Tower Hill in l747 for having taken
part in the rebellion Of Charles Edward,
the young pretender. His career was
singular combination of cunning
and daring, of treachery and cour-
age. Early in life, upon the
death of his cousin Hugh, the
ninth lord, who left no son, Simon
eloped with the eldest daughter. Anne
liza, and when she left him seized her
estates. For this and other deeds Of
violence he was attainted. He then
forced the widow Of Hugh to marry
him, and for this crime Simon was out
lawed and compelled to flee to France.
He returned to Scotland some years
later and fought against the ia
collins in the rebellion Of Ills, earn
ing thereby a pardon under the
great seal. and the restoration OF his
estates. He obtained a decree granting

found by the pack-train, which went to
bury the bodies, the dog was in such
weak condition that he had to be dashed
or mule and carried to the fort, where
his forlorn condition enlisted the SYM
pathies Of Mrs. General Carr, who
gave him the best Of attention. He
soon became the pet Of the regi-
ment, the Sixth cavalry, and re-
tanned his place until the company was
ordered out Of Arizona, when he lost
his kind mistress and was transferred to
the care Of Messrs. Stewart q Norton,
post traders at New Fort Grant. where
he can be seen at all times standing
guard over their butcher-shop.
1T was during this raid that the
gallant Captain Hentig, of the Sixth
cavalry, was killed and so horribly
mutilated.n

A Quietus.

A Presbyterian correspondent of the
Canada Presbyterian put quietus on
the vague rumors that the rebellion in
the Northwest was fomented by the
clergy of the Roman Catholic Church.
Writing from Winnipeg. he says; In
this country no clergyman has de-
nOunced the wickednesS Of this rebel
lion in more unsparing terms than his
Grace the venerable Archbishop Of
Winnipeg. and the fact that seye-
raj Catholic priests remained firm
in their allegiance to the Queen, and
exposed their persons to the violence of
the bloodthirSty Indians, and died at
their posts in cndeavoring to restrain
the murderous ferocity Of sayageS.

Those men did not flee for safety to the
older settlements. nor even betake
themselves to the fort, for protection.
but died like brave men OF the post of
sacred duty. Such behavior should
forever silence such calumny.'

by Mr.. Bignell half degree out. An
other result Of the expedition IS IN
showing the incorrectness on existing
maps Of the height of the land which
forms the natural boundary between
the Province of Quebect and Rupert's
Land.
Between lakes St. John and MistaS-
SIM the country consists principally OF
gneiss rock. neither the forests nor the
land being Of much value. Around the
latter lake the formation is of lime
stone. and hardy cereals and vegetables
grow to perfection. While the winters
at Mistassini are excessively cold. the
summer is not more than month short
er than that of Quebec.
The ice on the bay opposite the liud-
son-Bay Company's post moved out on
Nav 9th. but on the main body of the
lake it was still firm when Bignell left.
The ice formed on the small bays last
fall on the ODD of October. In Decem-
Der the thermometer fell to fifty-tive
degrees below zero. and in March to
fifty-two degrees below. In December
and January the average temperature
was twenty degrees below zero.
The expedition, led by Mr.. Bignell,
left Quebec on the 10Th Of July last.
1t assembled Bersimis river for l25
miles into Lake Pipimankan. and
through it up its principal feeder, the
main inlet, for 1870 miles to Lake Mani
wOunes. Then, crossing the height of
land, the party reached MiStassini by
the Rupert river, On the way
up Mr.. Bignell surveyed large
track Of country south OF the
height of land. to connect surveys al
ready made Of the headwaterS Of the
0utarde. Bersimis, Mawrewan, and
Peribonca rivers. The return from
Mistassini was made by way Of Grind
stone lake down the Sapincroche into
the Chief river, and thence into the
Chaumonchonan, feeder Of Lake St.
John. In descending these streams the
party had no less than forty-two por-
tageS.
Mr.. Bignell having been recalled, Mr..
Lowe, of the Dominion Geological Sur
vey, remains in charge. The expedi-
ton being short of supplies, will pro-
badly return before winter, though there
was some question Of it wintering at
Rupert's House, on James bay.
Among other interesting facts con-
cerning Lake Mistassini cited by Bignell
it may be mentioned that several islands
nearly as large as Orleans Island, at
Quebec, and containing large lakes, are
found scattered through this inland sea.
The Indians north of the height of land
are nominally members Of the Church
Of England, very intelligent, and well
supplied with prayer and hymn-books,
Testaments, &C., printed in the Cree
language, with characters resembling
stenography, by Bishop Horden, of
Moosonee, whose headquarters are at
Moose Factory, on James bay.
Another expedition, to be led by Mr..
Bignell, Jr., who last year conducted
his fathers supplies to MiStassini, will
leave for the great lake on the 23d
instant, and will include Professor
Lafammc, of Laval University, noted
geologist, and Section Kerr, Of the Royal
Geographical Society Of England.

The Three Unities.
IAN the Year Round.


AS VIC have said. the groundwork OF
" The Cid " is wholly Spanish, but the
beautiful poetry Of many of the lines
is wholly Comedies. And had Cor
nellie been allowed to follow his own
instincts, and write his play as his
spirit moved him, it would probably be
free from many Of its absurdities.
He was bound to observe the laws
of 1.-THE three unities," which
the French pedants Of those days
thought necessary to make incum-
bent upon every one who wrote for the
stage. These ignorantly-learned men
imagined that Aristotle on his own au-
thority had promulgated laws to be OBJ
served in the composition Of a dramatic
poem, and that they should be always
binding. The events in every play
were to be comprised within twenty-four
hours, the scene could not be changed,
and in the play there should be only one
interest or one line of action. These
laws were as the sword of Damoclcs
held over the heads Of the French dra-
matists as they sat at their work.
Richelicu had lent his voice in favor of
the edict, and they dreaded being
found guilty Of INSTRUMENTATION. The
authority of Aristotle was too high to
be questioned, and because the Greek
writers had SO written they must
be followed. The great Condo
expressed himself as being ter
ribly bored by a tragedy by
the Able d'Aubignac. A friend Of the
author tried to excuse the play, saying
that it was written exactly after the
precepts Of Aristotle. Condo replied
- am charmed that the Able d'Au-
bignac should have followed Aristotle
so carefully, but ! cannot forgive Arts

bignac write such a detestable TRACE

The NEST Unmi,issted scoundrels on the
Face OF the Enr,h-Their Habits.
THE London Globe.I
The Sarik Turcomans, who have been
so successfully exploited in the Russian
interest. may safely be considered the
most unmitigated scoundrels on the face
Of the earth. For half century west
ern nations have been in possession OF
incomplete accounts Of the regular sys-
tenn Of man-stealing pursued by the
Turcomans, but it is Of compare
lively recent date that we have laid
bare the sickening details of torture aud
inhuman barbarity with which their
maraudings were invariably accom-
panied. OF course there are some hon
orable exceptions, especially among the
tribes in close proximity to the Caspian
and Persian Province Of Astrabad, but
nothing can be urged in favor OF the
Sariks. OF a race of robbers aud muir
derers, they are the worst, and, being
rather more favored by nature than
their Tekke brethren, cannot plead the
extreme poverty that often drove other
wise well-meaning Tekkes to take part
in the forays:
The Sariks are supposed to have oc-
cupied Mery, in conjunction with the
Sailors. at the time of the Arab con-
quest. but this seems rather doubtful,
If we accept as true the statement that
the Turcomans formed the vanguard oil
the army of the Seljuk Turk princes
who crossed the 0xus from the north
in 1887, or nearly 400 years after the
first appearance of the Arabs. AT any
rate, there seems to be little doubt that
they have occupied the Merv oasis for
about eight centuries, and are quite
justified in regarding the TekkeS as
usurpers of their inheritance. During
this time they have formed part of the

At the time he left Mistassini, May

size of the great inland sea. 1t is,
however, believed to be at least six
times as large as Little Lake Mistassi-

River of the Devil. The little lake was
found by Mr.. Bignell to be over one
hundred miles long, though its size as
represented on the Government maps
