It will be on the Bees of the measure submitted to the Om:rim:ea by the Sabbath Ob- servance Association of Canada, with varying needs of the respective Pro- vinces. It is in the framing of a, law Mite:tide to the country as a whole that the lawmakers of Cauada find the great- est difficulty. We cannot have it special act for eaelt Provinee, and yetin no two are conelitions exactly the same or the views on Sabbath observance eutirely in harmeny. itt the extreme west people have very hived views with respect to how the Seeley should be spent. witere- is favors greater restraint the farther east you come. Ontario has very decided views that Suntley should be observed as a day of rest, and this feeling is even stimover in the Pro- vinees by the sea. Otii the other hand, in Qifebee the opinion is numerously en- tertained that their religious duties hav- ieg been cliaeharged in the forenoon of Sunday, people are free to enjoy recre- ation in a. rational way. Moreover, the custom has grown up of aoing on Sun- fine- after Mass stone things which are ituureut in themselves, .and yet conflict with the idea of Sabbath observauece Ifewever, en this question the Romom Cettholie hierarchy are in aceorel with their brethren of the Protestant foith, and it will be surprising indeed if In re- sponse to their enited demand some law la not placed on the statote book which will prove satisfactory to the ftreat body of people who desire to provide against the bitreduetion in (amide of anything savoring of the Sunday that is even en the continent of Europe.

It opened with it sharp decline, pre- cipltatea by threats from Washington of :td - verse railroad legislation. Subsequeutly these fears were found to birsomewhat exaggerat- ed; but the selling movement was startod and liquidathm ensued, which could not. be checked until several of the active stocks had slim') severe declines. This downward tendency wrs further accelerated by what appeared to be increased London selling. on Wednesday, however, the decline was sud- denly checked by an unexpected burst of .avueity and strength in the copper stocks. Tho strength resulting from these rumors shows the extent to which the raarket io in- fluenced by merger reports; and, 0.9 other important deals are sun in prospect, the merket must continue to bo more .or lege in- fluenced thereby*.
