Within the past year the old-time mode ot punishing a class of criminals iu Canada with the application of the lash has been rapidly revived. The St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary, In the Province of Quebec, was the scene of a well -merited flogging last week. rwo weeks ago one Joseph Donnois alias Corson, who has been wandering around the country in the guise of a priest, was sentenced, in accordance with the new Dominion law, to two years in the penitentiary, and to re- ceive thirty lashes for assaulting little girls. 'l'he guards, keepers and offi- cers, to the number of 40, marched down to the basement; where they formed three sides of a square. After having divested himself of his coat, Curson stripped to the waist, walked with firm step to the triangle, to which he was strappedby four guards. A stuffed leather strap was then put around his neck to protect it. In a minute there was asound, and immedi- ately afterward the nine knotted ends lashed the white flesh. Curson never winced, but at the third blow he groan- ed piteously, and kept it up until the. end. When the end was reached: half of the back from between the shoulders down was one mass of lacerated flesh. When be was unfastened from the try angle, Cursen walked over to the bench where his clothes lay, and his back was covered with a sloth saturated with salt and water. Curson then dressed himself, and, accompantad by two guards, walked firmly upstairs to his cell.

Wednesday revived the hopes of the farmers, but treinendoua downpours since have seriously injured'their prospects. The expectations on the ncorage of 1889 have lessened 1,000,000 quarters as regards wheat, although outs and barley are uncer- tain, English wheat in Loudon advanced 2a 9d on the fortuisht, with a smaller in- crease northward. Most markets advanced Gd to is. Tho sales of English wheat for the week amounted to 28,237 qrs. at 33s 10d against 38,3.79 qrs. at 29a 4d for the corre- sponding petioli last year. The trade in foreign wheat was disappointing,; although the tune ou Friday was somewhat encourag- ing. Tho stocks aro liberal, but the markets show no animation. The spring corn is in favor of satire. The immense quantity of maize afloat prevents an advance. Barley was alightly dearer. Oats in noses places made a slight advance. Beans favored sellers outside of London. To -day there was a light attendance, and only a small business was done. Of English wheat there was an extremely reduced Guppy and fancy prises were demanded, the outside figure being 40s. Foreign wheat was ir- regular; California was 9d dearer, Russian 3d and the others between those figures. Flour favors holdera. Maize sells well and prises are steady ; barley was firm, but there were few sales. Rye was Gd dearer. American and Sweediah oats were firm ; Russians were hard to place. Beans and peas wore steady. At the close holders were asking 36s per sack for flour. The Russian Government bas ordered the building of four new ironolads. !aih(anabg Zlylo:! J 0 N z CD 0 0 0 lJ THL BEST YET !
