abe original Indian Treaty with Lear
eeutrh.
The following is a u.py of the original
treaty between Lurd Selkirk and the In-
dus Choate, for the transfer .f a : ind-
erabl. block ..f land show the Red end
Assiniboine Rivers, on which was formed
the Selkirk Settlement. It will be rib
*erred that the quit rout agreed upon is
not of a very formidable character. We
• are nut, however, to oenelude that the
\ Earl took advantage of the isnoranee of
the natives to secure a wide tract of land
for almost nothing. At that time, and
in those reveals, land was really of very
little worth, and the risk and expense
attending such a undertaking as that
which the Earl planned, would not justi-
fy very much outlay fur • portion of that
land of which the Indians had more than
they knew what to do with. Though
the Indians were very 'fond of tobaoeo,
it is very possible that the quantity men-
tioned was merely a peppercorn ack-
nowledgement. Be that as it may, thus
runs the treaty:—
Thu indenture, nude on the 18th day
of July, in the 57th year o f the reign of
our Sovereign Lord King George the
Third, and i■ the year of our Lord 1817,
between the undersigned Chiefs and
Werrion of the Chipeway or Sautesux
Nation, and of the Kittistino or Cree
nation on the one tart, and the Right
Honourable Thomas Karl of Selkirk on
the other part, Witnesseth that, for and
in consideration o1 the annual present
or quit rent hereinafter mentioned, the
said Chiefs here' given, granted and
oonfirmed, and do by these presents give
tfrant aad confirm, unto our Sovereign
Lord the King all that tract of land ad-
jacent to Red River and Osioihoyne
River, and beginning at the mouth of
Rad River and extending along the same
as far es Great Forks at the mouth of
Red Lake River, and along Osiniboyne
River, otherwise called Riviera dee
Cha,npignona, and extending to the dis-
tance of six miles from Fort Douglas on
every aide, and likewise from Fort Deer,
And al*e from the Great Forks, and in
other parts extending in breadth to the
distance of two English statute miles
Woo 4roui the banks of the said riven
on each side, together with all the appur-
tenances whatsoever of the said tract of
land, and to, have and to hold forever
the said tract of land, and appurtenances
to the use of the said Earl of Selkirk,
and of the settlers being established
thereon, with the consent ant permis-
sion of our Sovereign Lord the King or
of the said Earl of Selkirk; provided
always, and these presents are under the
express condition that the said Earl, his
heirs and successors, or their agents,
shall annually pay to the Chiefs and
and Warriors of the Chippeway or Sal-
taux Nation the present or quit rent,
oonsistin,{ of one hundred pounds weight
.1 good and merchantable tobacco, to bo
delivered on or before the 10th day of
October at the Forks of Osiniboyne
River, and to the Chiefs and warriors , f
the Kittistino or Cree Nation a like pres-
ent or quit rent of one hundred pounds
of tobacco, to be drlivere1 to them , n
or before the said 10th day of October,
it Portage La Prairie, on th, banks of
the Osiniboyne River. Provided always
that the traders hitherto establishel up-
on any part of the above mentioned
tract of land shall not be molested in the
possession of the lands which they have
already cultivated and improved till His
Majesty's pleasure shall be known.
In witness whereof the Chiefs afore•
said have set their marks at the Forks
„f Red River, on the day aforesaid.

ated, one heiun Sir Alexend.r 1'. Galt,
formerly Canadian Minister of finance in
Sir John Macdonald's ministry, and
since 1878 1 uutinion cotnmissioner, at
the court o1 St. James. From his early
youth Hugh conceived a passion for the
stave, and later, in the face of his par-
ents' remonstrances, joined a traveling
theatrical troupe. He was then in his
sixteenth year. The company in the
o,urse of time went to Edinburgh, and
there young Galt accidentally met his
father. The latter, after some trouble,
induced the wayward atm to return
home. But Hugh did not remain long
under the parental roof. One day the
stage fever seized him and he disapnesred
again to return no mon.
Naw CHATHAM THIATat
A yoke or two afterward, after travel-
ling with • troupe all over England, he
came to America, where he has remained
ever since. in this city he became con-
nected with several theatrical enterprises
and in 1848 vested Canada, and there
met his brother Alexander, but a clerk
in Government employ. Upon his re-
turn to New York Galt was trade stage
manager of Purdy's national theatre,
otherwise known as the new Chatham
theatre the last remains of which fell
down upon a wan a few days ago, crush-
ing him to death. In this capacity he
had much success, and beoame very
wealthy. In later years he obtained the
position of manager of the Park theatre,
and in 1807 went out went.
A HOr1Liaa CARL
No definite data could be obtained
yesterday in regard to all his movements
since that hour, but certain it is that he
has slowly "gene to the dogs." A year
ago, it seems, he turned up suddenly in
his old haunts in Houston street, and
rarely let a day pass without getting in-
toxicated. His brother Alexander, who
heard of his sad plight, repeatedly sent
him small Bums of money to keep him
from starving, but Galt only spent the
same on liquor. Agentleman told Troth
last evening that Galt had shown him
ten months ago a letter from Bir Alex-
ander couched in the moat affectionate
terms, in which the unfortunate man
was entreated to turn over a new leaf
and give up his old associations. Yet
no remonstrances or pleadings would
evail, and so Galt died a drunkard's
death.
Verbal artws to he barred Unites.
The following examples of the more
common errors in the use of words are
taken from "The Verbalist":
Accord fur give; as "the information
was accorded him."
Aggravate for irritate; aggravate is to
make worse.
Alluded to for refer to or mention.
As for that; "not as I know" for "not
that I know."
Avocation for vocation; a man's voca-
tion in iris business; avocations are
things that occupy him incidentally.
Balance, for rent or remainder.
Character for reputation; one may
have a good reputation, but a bad char-
acter, and the two words should never
be comf..unded.
Dangerous, for in danger; a sick man
is sometimes most absurdly said to be
dangerous, when it is only meant that
the poor fellow is in danger himself—a
very different thing.
One of the editors of the Liverpool
Mercury is willing to rink his reputation
as a public man. whatever that may be
worth, that the wont nes of small pox

woe of cream of tartar dissolved in one
post of het water, drank at intervals
