Tun naughty "Grits" have scored
again, This time it ie in an eleetion held
Tuesday to fill the vacancy in the Quebec
Legislature for Montreal Centre, caused
by the death of the late member, Patrick
Kennedy. The result was the eleotion of
Dr. Guerin (Liberal) by a majority of 1,-
261 over 0. A, ,McDonald (Government).
Ie is officially announoed that W. B.
Soarth, a Winnipeg ex -M. P., has been
appointed Deputy Minister of Agricul-
ture for this Dominion a8 auooeseor to
Jno. Lowe, who has spent a quarter of a
century in the public service, and now,
at the age of 71, goes into the haven of
rest, viz., the superannuation list, at the
close of next month.
MANS and varied are the devices of the
man nnwilliug to work, whereby he may
make an easy living. One of the latest
comes to hand from Toronto, where two
men have been arrested for cleaning and
re -selling old postage stamps. The gents
will likely board out for a year or so,
Kingston being their poatof&se address.
R. S. WRITE, M. P., of Montreal, has
resignedhie seat in Cardwell. He gives
pressure of business as the reason but an
Ottawa correspondent says he has had
the promise of the Collectorship of Cus-
toms at Montreal for over two years and
is determined to bring the. Cabinet to
time in keeping their word. In addition
it is hinted that Mr. White is favorable
to the eetabliehment of Separate Schools
in Manitoba and would probably vote
that way in the House while Cardwell is
very strongly Orange and opposed to in.
terference with Manitoba's rights. To
throw open a oonstitnenoy just at this
particular time and under these peculiar
circumstances is said to be anything but
pleasing to the Dominion Cabinet.
WE -understand that several of_.the
leading business houses in Brussels, who
`are not now doing so, intend •conducting
baeinees on a oaeh basis on the opening
of 1896. This is right and is becoming
more convincingly apparent every day.

out of debt people will be better friends,
as many serious squabbles bave origin-
ated over old amounts. The cash ons•

purchases where he pleases and ie under

to the old, played-ont long credit.

al, comprising 1,459 barrels, were sold at
Liverpool. Of this fruit, Kings brought
from 16s to 23s ; greeninge, from 12s to
16s, and various other kinds from 14e to
188 per barrel. The demand was good.
No California fruit has been received.
TORONTO, Ont., Oct. 22.—Receipts at
the Toronto cattle market today were
lighter, and buying was somewhat better,
but in most lines the feeling was only
firm. There were 65 car loads of stuff,
which inoluded 1,342 sheep and lambs,
1,413 hogs and 26 calves. Export cattle.
—The feeling was improved in this line,
on the strength of better cables from
Britain and a slightly better quality of
the stuff offered. Prices ranged from 3gc
to 4o per pound. Too many big rough
cattle, not fat enough, are offering. 10 Is
likely that there will be some demand
for exporters all winter.
