New Routo Across. the Atlantic.

An Ottawa, Can, dispatch states that
company of Boston, Mass, capitalists
has been quietly developing the founda-
tions of q seaport at the east end Of the
Straits of Canso, N. S., and If expecta-
tions are realized it will have an impor-
tant bearing upon future communication
between Europe and America. The
place, which is to be called Terminal
City, is five miles east of Port Null
grave, on the Intercolonial railway, and
the Government has consented TO an
extension of the railway to the place,
and agreed TO operate the extension as
part of the Intercolonial system. Ter
minal City is situated on one Of tho
finest harbors on the Atlantic coast,
having sufficient depth of water for tho
largest vessel afloat, being completely
land-loeked, absolutely free from ice,
comparatively free from fog, and open
to navigation at all times. A straight
line on the map Of the world from Chi
cago to Liverpool passes through this
point, and the distance between them
is 400 miles shorter Chan by Portland,
Boston or New York. 1t viii take four
days from Terminal City to Liverpool
by the new steamers proposed TO be put
on the route. When the railroad is
completed and wharves are built, all
passengers and mails from Europe will
be delivered in New York or Montreal
one day sooner than by any other route.
1t is the most easterly port open all the
year round, and appears to be natural
shipping port for the products of tho Do
minion to Europe.

Mrs. Cornythe's Importance In the Anairs
of Bismarck Archipelago,
The Suffrage journal of Manchester
contains, among other items Of interest,
an account of the marvellous success as
a land d-owner and trader on an extensive
scale Of Mrs. Cornythe a lady Of some
what mixed nationality-neing the halls
caste daughter of former American
Consul at Samoa, and having been mar
ried TO an Englishman. After his death
she settled in New Britain, one OF the
largest Of the group Of islands
now known as the Bismarck Archi-
pelago, and there effected largo
purchases of land about ten years ago.
She holds collectively more than the
whole number OF traders and land own
ers settled on the island, her property
and that Of the firm OF which she is the
head amounting to 100000 acres, while
that possessed by German merchants is
only %. 600 acres, and by other foreign
ers $500. She owns the only steamer
trading among the islands OF the Arohi-
pelago, and exports large quantities OF
copra, pearl she'll, beche-de-mar, and
South Sea Island cotton grown on herown

peans and several hundred natives. The
trade with the natives is all carried on
by barter; and the imports { insists of
tobacco, pipes, axes, hammers, knives,
nails; also kerosene. lamps, beads, cot
ton goods, timed salmon, sugar, flour
and salt. New Britain in about 800 miles
long and thirty or forty broad, situated
in the east of New Guinea, is about six
degrees south. The interior is noun
famous, but the soil on the slopes OF
the mountains is described as being one
of the richest in the world and capable
Of growing any kind Of tropical product.
Timber trees are plentiful, and there Is
a good supply OF water. The native in
habitaRts are chiefly Of Papuan origin,
and follow a curious custom also found
in New Guinea of shutting up their
daughters in cages till they are mar
ried. They are filthy in their habits,
cruel and treacherous, and practice the
loves vices Of savagery, infanticide and |
cannibalism. The Archipelago, of which /
New Britain and New Ireland are tho
chief islands, with a rSultitude OF /
smaller islands, nominally belong to /
Germany; but tho trade carried on with /
them is far more in the hands of En- /
glish and Americans than OF Germans. !

BURGLAR KILLED.
A Farmer and His Wife Attacked
by Two Desperadoes. .
Desperate Struggle Ensues, In Which One
of the Robbers is Fatally Shot.

CREsTLNE, o., Feb 1s.-Sunday night
at o'clock an old farmer, J. $. Tringle.
two miles east of this place, sent a bur-
glar to his long home by his unerring
aim, and wounded another. At the hour
named two burglars raped at the door
and called out to open up, that they had
dispatch for him. Mr.. Tringle and
his wife we're in the act of retiring
when the door was opened. AS soon as
they got glimpse of Tringle one made
rush for him, and the other for Mrs.
Tringle, and desperate struggle
ensued. Mr.. Tringle in the struggle
succeeded in downing his antagonist.
and reaching for his revolver with his
right hand held the burglar with his
left and fired, the ball entering the
right breast. The burglar ran out OF
the house. Thon Mr.. Tringie, ster-
ping up to his wife, seized the other
burglar and fired at him. He, too, ran
out of the house. Mr.. Tringle then
locked the door, and upon going out
at daylight found the dead bur.
glar in the yard. The alarm was given,
and two hundred people went out
yesterday morning. A registered letter
given at Beaver Falls, Pa, gold watch
and some money were found on his per.
son. Two men were arrested, one with.
out a hat, and the other crippled. A
hat was found in Tringles door-yard.
No bullet-marks can be found inside the
house, and the supposition is that the
wounded man carried the cold lead away
with him. The dead man was brought
to town yesterday afternoon. His body
was dressed for burial at Heibert.
shausen's and search was made Of his
pockets. A registered letter receipt,
dated Beaver Falls, Pa, Letter "a. from
G. M. Devinney to Mrs Anna NJ Devin.
ney, Williamsburg, Pa, Allegheny Coun.
ty, was found. The two men who were
arrested on suspicion of being his pals
were released upon examination yester-
day afternoon, Farmer Tringle and his
wife fought most desperately, and their
heroism is complimented everywhere.
