The aged couple are wondetfully wiU preserved. There. was great excitement at the lower bridge in Belleville, on Wednes- day morning. If was alleged that a sea serpent had just been Seal- in the' river. Several hundred persons quicklYcolleet- ed, firearms were produred, and the mon- ster fired into many tinim, and finally a barbed Bah spear was plunged; into the • object, and: it was brought Ashore, and discavered to be,—a long strip of cedar bark. There is a' man at Duluth who has ---4--itsvested-nearly-433.0:00-in4he-1ast..taltsa- ty years in lotteries, raffle'', polioy-play-t inis, and dice -shaking, and has never iron 'much more than a glass of beer. He says he is bound to keep at it until he hits a fortune, but his four bare-foot- ed children are a bit doubtful.:if they 'can get along without shoes until- that time arrives. In the last raffle theman bought twenty-four Oat of fifty chance, and lost at that. ' Prof. FOrbes, State E'ntimiologist, has coreplet,ed a thorough moiruination of Southern Illinois wheat -producing coun- ties, where losses have been cansed by the ravages of chinchbegs, and he fihds . that the infested area. has largely in- creased during -die -year. EtessettissiciOr the outlook in Consequenee'VerY gloomy bfor the 188-7' wheat crop in that section; unless some unusual fitato of weather should destroy the brOod while betebing. A deputation front the directors a the Infants' Home, Torente, and citizens waited upon Attorney -General Mowat, on Tuesday afternoon, and.called his at- tention to the rapid development of baby -farming in: tbe City,- and: its atten- dant evils. They seggested the license' system as in Ileglaticl -and sem of the States. It was stated that in many Of these houses there skere4roecilliiiriri-- nine children, and most Of the keepers' • were ...connected with lying-in hospitals: Mr. Mowat expressed •bie•'surprise at these statement's, and said he would give . the matter his earnest etttentioti. . Exs• Mayor Boswell was asked to•nrepare. a 'report On the subject. and subtnit it to the Premier. A Bismarck, •Dak. telegram says : A phenomenon is reported 'frOin Coal Harbor, 50miles north: Dtrring the coldest hour Monday the heavens seemed' -aglow with the most brilliantfire, and about 4 o'clock in the afternoon an im- mense blaze of fire shot down through 0. the frosty atnicasphere, its passage being accompanied .by a lend., hiesing_noise; As the flame descended a breath of warm air passed over the vicinity, and the stl'ange visitor fell on the opposite side of the river. Its 'contact with the. , earth was accompanied by an explosion, which, sounded like thirfiring of newt; .non. An examination of the Spot where the fire setimed to :fall was made soon after, and the only dvidence of aa ex- plosion werethe shattered' ice and a bare depression in the earth. No one can account .for the .phenomenon, but it is believedto have-beena meteoric frag- ment. Its' direction was • from north- east to south -110E10. About a it:tenth-ago Laura Chartin, young French girl of renSarkable beauty, was arrested in Portland, Mna. on a of vagrancy, and was tient to jail for four months. •Quito' re`dentlY, a young • Swede, named Frank Evetson, called at jail to see her, and without loss of time asked the girl to marry him. She con- sented. A license was obtained, and they were married on Sathrday. The .girl as Everson's first love, but fate separated them and be married another. His wife died, and, after a season of mourning, he crossed the ocean in search of his ldst love, who had removed with • her family tO Canada, fle found on arriving itt Montieal that she had gone to Portland, and so followed her, He was shocked to learn of Ler arreat, but found that she had been taken from Oil assOciateil, and had only been imprudent, A greet interaitt is felt in the pair, and • it is underateed that Croverner Relate will be asked to add to their haPpiness by letting the bride goft'. An Ottawa correspotident says:—It iestated on the Very bOat 'antbOrity to- day that there is sothe hitch itx the ad- .ustmetiVoradearritta and -final -set tlement- position to say what%the difficulty was, It is learned, heweVer, fromr otlaer reli- able resources, that the Government are opposed to the Company making thqir Atlantic terminus on the United States seaboard, itnd refuse to cone to a Anal settlement until the -Company give Some. assurance that they will have their ter- minus in Canadian territory. In order to secure the passim of the, contract with the Canadian Pelapific through Par- liament, it will be remembered, Sir John Macdonald had to pledge himself to see that the terminus of the road was with. in the Dominion, Be pledged himself to the people to see -this carried out, but the railway company, who by their eon - tract are not prevented front running thoir line to an Amerioen port, are not willing to accept any such proposal. How matters will terminate it,is hard to eay, and if the Grivernmeni have to accede to the demands of the Company, no final eettlement will be effected, at lout before the elections for the Pro: - vines) of Ontario are over, as the ac- knowledgement that he, Sir jeltp, had to ,back 'down, would very materially affeot the cease of the Conservative party throughout the Previa**. witikt three bey., two seas ef Geo.
