In 1845, the Derby stakes at Epsom, in
England, was woo by Mr. Gratwick's
bay colt Merry Monarch, rode by F.
Bell, the value of the stakes was £6,000
clear to the winner; thirty-one horses
started, won by half • length, 20 to 1
against the winner. In the winter of
1844, a Mrs. Clifton, wife of • wine
merchant in London, dreamed that she
saw the Derby stakes at Epsom won by
a hay horse, whose jockey wore a brown
body, crimson sleeves and green cap,
and wanted to beak the horse for twenty
pound& Her husband, like moat others
would do, pooh-hoohed the dream, but

burrowed a Racing Calendar. But lok-

1. Advertisements callingfor tenders
ere issued on the 24th of Otober last,
and in answer thereto fourteen tenders
were received and were opened un the
1st of February by Messrs. Trudeau,
Schreiber, and Braun.
2. The tender of McDonald & Charle-
bois, of Montreal, for $2,277,000, was
the lowest of the fourteen by $209,255,
and it was accompanied by a deposit
cheque for $20,000 as a guarantee of
good faith. The cheque was dated 23rd
January, and was stamped by the bank
on the 24th "guod for two days only."
3. On the 4th February Sir Charles
Tupper instructed his secretary to call at
the Bank of Montreal at Ottawa and
ask the manager if he would pay the
cheque. The secretatycalled onthe Gth,
and was told it would be necessary to
enquire at the head office. The mane -
get euqutred by telegraph, and at one
o'clock he handed the'secretary the an-
swer: "Strike out -For two days only'
from our acceptance. The cheque will
be good until paid.' It was handed to
the Minister the same afternoon.
4. On the same day (6th February)
Mr. Schreiber reported to Mr. Braun
that the tender of McDonald A Charle-
bou, though lowest, was irrevular for
the reason that the cheque for $20,000
was marked "good for two days only,"
and he recommended the tender of An-
drew Onderdonk for acceptance.

I must trespass upon your kindness', F• en Sora.' -Mr. T. W. McLaughlin
Mr. Editor, with the relation of a neat
aingular dream, or what might be called
a treble dream; which was attended with
serious consequence&
In the time of the Wars in England
between King Charles the 1st and the
Commonwealth, the market town„ of
Newarck-upon-Trent, in the county of
Nottingham; one of the must loyal towns
in the Kingdoin. This t own was very
strongly fortified witho,ut, and stout
hearts within of a determined stamp,
held Crowmell's forces at bay througq
several Beiges; they put out a flag of
truce, and sent one of their party t , try
to arrange. The person was met with-
out the walls, at what was called Mill -
gate; he was then blindfolded and oon-
ducted to the King Hall, which stood,
and yet stands, on the north aide of the
market place. After the conference,
he was again blindfolded, and taken out
the way by which he came in. The
house nearly adjoining the King's Hall,
where the town authorities sat in coun-
cil, was owned and occupied 'by alder-
man Hercules Clay, During the night
following the attempted arrangement,
(March 11, A. D. 10451, Mr. Clay sud-
denly sprang out of bed, saying the
house was on fire ? After looking
through the house and finding all right,
they returned to bed. In a short time
he again called out the house was on
fire. After again looking round. they.
returned to bed a again; but after a very
short space of time, he again jumped
out of bed, dressed as [quick as possible;
immediately opened the door into the
market place, when a homb struck the
house and burnt it to the ground. In
consequence of the extraordinary deliv-
erance of himself and family, by a
dream, he gave by his will the suet of
two hundred pounds to corporation, in
trust, to pay the interest of one hundred
pounds to the Vicar of Newark, fora
sermon to be preached on the llth of
March, annually, it being the day on
which the event happened. And the
interest on the other hundred to be
given in bread to the poor, on the came
day. A Latin inscription upon Mr.
Clay's marble tomb in the south-east
angle of the church, amply testifies, to
the truth of the foregoing statement.

ORm ARv.—The subject of this notice
Mrs. Wm. Armstrong was born in Ar-
magh, Ireland, in 1832. With her fath-
er Matthew Hunter, she emigrated to
the township of Downie when 13 years
of age and in those early days when the
settlers had to work hard, Sarah was al-
ways found ready to do her share. She
married to her bereaved husband on
March 3rd, 1852 and after living in Bev-
erly township two years, they re -'loved
to Glenallan any from there to Mitchell.
Twenty three years ago they moved to
Brussels and opened a hotel, called the
"Queen's Arms," where the American
now stands. The place was well known
to the travelling public, and the ability
of the deceased to make guests feel at
home and supply then[ with the deli-
cacies of the season was well known.
Five years ago they left the hotel and
moved to their faun near Brussels.
Mrs. Armstrong had been poorly all

cut her head, erysipelas set in and was
partly the come of her death, which oc-
curred on Wednesday night about 11 p.

At the meeting presided over by Car-
dinal Manning at the London mansion
house, for the relief of Russo -Jewish re-
fuges, a letter was read enclosing a
memorial signed by 1589 Oxford under-
, graduate& It said: "We wish publicly
to state our belief that it is only by
granting to all classes equal rights and
j privileges before the law, and by frank-
ly laying aside prejudices of race and
religion, that the common welfare of
Europe can be advanced.- Cardinal ' t
Manning said that he knew of nn more h
nnpreeedented or gratifying outburst of
feeling from Oxford undergraduates
was informed by theSecretary of theDe-
psrtment of Railways that his tender
was accepted.
G On the 8th the Minister'amemoran-
dum was endorsed by the report of a
committee of Council.
7. On the 10th McDonald & Cherie -
bets telegraphed the Minister that their
tender being the lowest they were await-
ing notice from the Department to com-
plete the deposit. Mr. Braun replied
that their tender could not be consider-
ed "fur want of cheque marked good.-
8. On the 14th they petitioned the
Governor in Council, setting out that
their tender was regular; that it was
$200,000 lower than any other; that the
cheque for $20,000 was still g..od, was
in possession of the Department, and
would have 1 ••'n cashed at anytime;
declaring the., they were ready to exe-
cute the contract, and praying that it
might be awarded then*.
9. On the 20th Sir Charles Tupper re-
ported on the petition to the Council,
recommending that it be not entertain-
ed, and on the following day this recom-
mendation was adopted by minute of
Council.
10. The draft form of contract with
Onderdonk was submitted to the Depu-
ty Minister of Justice for examination
on the 20th, and was reported correct in
form.
From this narrative of facts it is plain
that McDonald & Charlebois' tender w -as
not rejected because it was too low, or
for my other reason than that their
cheque was not marked "good;" that
the acceptance stamp of the bank mana-
ger, "Good for two days only," was a
matter to form, and was se regarded by
Sir Charles Tupper; that on the 6th u
February Sir Charles was informed in
answer to bis own enquiry that the che-
que was goon, and would be good until
paid; that in the teeth of this assurance
he next day rejected McDonald & Char-
lebois' tender "for want of cheque mark-
ed good"; and that the contract was not
signed before the 20th, when all the
facts were known to the Cabinet.
It is a clear case of plunder. Sir
Charles Tupper could be no guiltier had
he in the face of ten thousand witnesses
thrust his hand into the public treasury
and put $200,000 into his own pocket;
and his fellow -Ministers are not less
guilty than Sir Charles.

1ESIIare unreasonably inquisi-
Sonne people
ties and curious, especully about mat -
tam which du not contain thein in the
least Fur example, here is a correspon-
dent who is a ce,nstant reader of our
valuable and influential paper, and
would like to be lnfureled why an editor
or newspaper writer, when speaking of
himself in his writings, invariably naw
the plural pronoun "we" instead of the
singular "1."
There are several reasons. Self pre-
servation is the first law of human na-
ture. It begins at home, like old mo-
ther Charity. There is some human na-
ture about an editor, public opinion to
the contrary notwithstanding. An editor
thinks too much of his "I's" to wear
them in mourning, and therefore when
speaking of some dab -sided six footer as
a miserable rod nosed, pusillanimous,
wife enoczer, he consideres it is the bet-
ter part of valor to drop in au occaaaional
"we." This creates in the mind of the
six footer the impresaion. that the editor-
ial force consists of a standing army,
armed with deadly "we"apns.
Furthermore, in cases where the vic-
tim conies around to the office to kill the
writer of that particular item, it is so
pleasant to have the guilty man's iden-
tity buried in the obscurity of the plural
"we."' The editor-in-chief, the co6tmer-
cial editor, the city editor, the local edi-
tor, the reporters, the book-keepers,
compositors, book -binders, jobbers press-
men, devil and all the delivery boys are
thus placed on a common footing by the
little pronoun "we," and when the en-
raged person looks about hint ai%d finds
how many homes he would snake deso-
late, how many wives hr would make
wid,ws and how many children orphans,
by killing off all included in the little
"we" at one fell swoop, he sickens of the

meteon.logist of the Mississippi Valley,
whose contributions to his favorite study SEEGMILLER
have given him an almost national re-
putation. On a recent lecture through
the Northwest, the Prosessor had a
narrow escape frau the serious conse-
t uences of a sudden and very dangerous
illness, the particulars of which he thus
refers to: "The day after concluding my
course of lectures at Burlington, Iowa,
on the 21st of December last, I was seiz-
ed with a sudden attack of neuralgia in
the chest, giving me excruciating .pain
and alnx,at preventing breathing. My
pulse, usually 80, fell to 35; intense nau-
sea of the stomach succeeded and a cold.
clammy sweat covered my entire body.
The attending physician could do noth-
ing to relieve me. After suffering for
three hours I thought- as I had been
using St. Jacobs (til for good effect for
rheumatic pains-- I would try it. I
saturated a piece of flannel large enough
to cover my cheat, with the Oil, and ap-
plied it. The relief was almost instanta-
neous. In ane hour I was entirely free
from pain, and would have taken the
train to fill an appointment that night

No Apologies for Dauer.
Apologies for poor dinners are gener-
ally out of place. But when a lady has
a forgetful husband, who, without warn-
ing, brings home a dozen guests to sit
down to a plain family dinner for three
or four, it is not in human nature to
keep absolute silence. What to say, and
how to say it, form the problem. Mrs.
Tucker, the wife of Judge Tucker, of
Williamsburg, solved this problem years
ago. She was the daughter or niece (I
am uncertain which) of Sir Peyton Skip -
worth, and celebrated for her beauty,
wit, ease, and grace of manner. Her
temper and tact were , put to the proof
one court -day, when the judge brought
the accustomed half -score or more of
lawyers, for whom not the slightest pre-
paration had been made, the iodize hav-
ing quite forgotten to remind his wife
that it was court day, and she herself,
strange to tell, having overlooked the
fact.
The dinner was served with elegance,
f and Mrs. Tucker made herself very
charming. Upon rising to leave the
guests to their wine, she said :—
"Gentlemen, you have dined to -day
with Judge Tucker ; promise me that
you will all dine to -morrow with rte."
This was all her apology, whereupon
the gentlemen all swore that such a wife
was beyond price. The judge then ex-
plained the situation, and the next day
there was a noble banquet.

Many of our Reform journals have al-
ways regarded the N. P. as an unmiti-
gated evil. We have never done so.
We believe it has benefitted certain in.
dustries. But while we admit this we
emphatically deny that it has been the
great blessing to the country its sup-
porters maintain it has. Mechanics, and
working men generally, do not find that
it has cheapened food and clothing.
lowered houserents or raised their wages.
Farmers fail to see that it has been in
any way a benefit to them. It is im-
passible to prove that whatever in-
creased prosperity the country has en-
joyed during the past three years
ought to be credited to the N. P. For
the last few years there has been a steady
stream of immigration from Canada into
the United States, where mechanics and
others say they can get more employ-
ment and better wages. Now that
stream has swollen into • flood and is
peering into the North-west at an un-
precedented rate. 1f the N. P. has been
s, beneficial in its operations why this
extraordinary exodus? it is hardly be-
lievable that so many mechanics and
working men, could they find plenty of
employment and good wages in their
own country, would seek • foreign shore.
