lord Stanley VIII Not Force Any
Policy Upon the Dominion.

On the arrival at Moville of the steamer
Sarmatian, on her way to Montreal, an in
terview was had with Lord Stanley of Pres
who is one of her passengers. His lordship
said he had acquired, while in the
colonial office, considerable knowl-
edge of Cauada's vast resources, and
had been greatly impressed with the future
in store for the country. He would not go
to his now pest, he said, with preconceived
ideas, and did not wish to force any policy
upon country possessing a responsible gov
ernment. He was confident that the domin-
ion ministers would cordially CO operate
with him, should time arrive when trouble
some cues ions were likely to arise.

the University of Vermont, gives some
interesting facts about his country. The

POTsDAM, June 14.-11:S0 p. NJ
When lying down, the emperor is
apathetic. At other times he is fully
conscious. Early this afternoon,
while reclining in the arm chair, he
wrote a few farewell words to Prince
Bismarck. Afterwards he took a
sip of food through the tube, a little
cocaine being administered. The
doctors believe the death agony Will
come soon after midnight. The
dowager Empress Augusta and the
grand duchess of Baden will arrive
tomorrow.
MIDNIGHT.-The whole family
spent the evening at the emperors
bedside. The patients fever has
somewhat abated, but his tempera-
ture is still los. He is fully con-
scious and makes himself under
stood by signs. Minister Won Ca
privi and Drs. Leyden and Krauz
returned to Berlin shortly after s
o'clock. Empress Augusta has star
ted for Potsdam. Prince and Prin-
cess Henry have arrived. There is
an enormous crowd before the castle.
1:2O A M.-The emperor is weaker,
but perfectly conscious and mindful
of the doings around him. The
comt officials remain in the palace
during the night. 1t is expected
that the night will pass quietly.

The Woodburn Damage Suit.

Yesterday, in the state circuit
court, the damage suit of Laura E.
Nendel VS.. Lemuel Walker, fol
breach of promise, was dismissed
for want of prosecution. Laura
has met another who was willing to
heal the injury done to her heart
since the suit began and is now
married, so she probably thought
the jury might consider that the
injury was not very great.

Was Bound to Suicide.

Fred Crump, the penitentiary
prisoner mentioned yesterday as
having attempted suicide by cutting
his throat,is evidently crazy, and it is
likely, if he does not kill himself too
soon, WILDE examined ere long as to
his sanity. After DR.. Byrd had
sewed up the wounds in his throat,
Crump was placed in cell on the
ground floor, and everything with
which he could possibly kill him.
self was taken from the cell; but his
hosts failed to consider the floor, and
the upper bunk in the cell, and after
all had quieted down, Crump climed
into the upper bunk, dumped on
to the stone floor, with reversed
ends, striking on his head. He was
dead to all intents and purposes for
fifteen minutes, but his head proved
to have been too hard, and he
recovered. He was getting along
very well at last accounts.

THE Hospital question must be kept be- fore the people. Waterbury must relieve itself of the reproach of having for so long dallied in indifference with this great local need; but in higher requirement., Water bury must take means and measures to re- lieve the afflicted and wounded poor. Some time ago we ventured a suggestion to the Mayor to use his official authority in call ing meeting of citizens to promote the great object; we renew our appeal to that end. Church contributions are most appro- priate, and we hope in the end, when all are heard from, will prove great auxili- ary. Personal offerings-if. good example would only be generously followed-are powerful helps, and we are pleased to see i'll the columns of contemporary that a beginning has been made in this direction. We shall, of course, be ready to act in furtherance of individual offerings; every means to an important end should be grasped at: but we hold the opinion. that an aggregate city meeting for this import ant city purpose would be the most effec- tive mode of winning the united action of citizens.

"BELow zero !" was the cry in Water bnry at early morning;and as the day grew
 older statements varied from two below to ten above. The mercury and scales in various thermometers could not, it ap- pears, come to agreement on the register; but it needed not their indications to tell how cold it was. Every man was ther- mometer unto himself; the blood obeyed natural laws just as well, but more feel ingly than the quicksilver; nose tops and ear tips were about as satisfactory-or un- tisfactory-evidence of the cold as any scientific instrument could present. And still in the midst of all there was compen- sation in the fact-and should be a cores
 bonding gratitude to the Giver of all good that we are saved the blizzard sufferings of other places. We'll, how should the grati- tude be expressed! Words of prayer and praise are all good and most needful; but the practical thankfulness of giving a little out of your competency to. Gods poor would be about the best appreciation of Gods goodness. If you, readers, we'll clothed and well-housed, with tables well furnished, feel acutely this little blizzard at your own doors, how must it be with the destitute and the afflicted-the hungry and the homeless? Let us not add hope
 less, in this City of Churches and Chari- ties -

THE New Haven News has a story of a learned professor who, returning from Washington, brought with him the news that delegation of Irish Americans in respect of MT. Troup's undemocratic mis- doings had been snubbed by cabinet officers, with the declaration: "Gentlemen, YOU had better return home. We cannot dismiss an efficient officer to gratify party spite, and as for Connecticut we regard It of no importance in the Presidential elec- tion. We can win without it." We await 1 further news. As it is, our simple com mentry is:-We don't believe it.
