CHARLES Srreamox, the celebrated London divine, who hes been ill for Boone time is not expected to recover, Hon. W. E. Gladstone, England's Grand Old Man, is also failing rapidly and may drop off very suddenly. WE have much pleasure in suggesting the name of Thos. Street-Ianx•Reeve of Grey, for the Ivacent County Clerkship. Mr. Stu -ellen is well acquainted with municipal affairs and his experience in the Co. Connell and his knowledge of the various municipalities would make him a worthy successor of the late highly es. teemed Clerk. TIIE deeper the probing in the Quebec) scandal ihe more rascality is brought to the surface. One day this week Martin I'. Connolly, bookkeeper for the firm of Larkin, Connolly di Co., geve evidence in which he clearly stated that various sums were paid to Inspectors Pelletier, Brunelle and Germain for certifying to work which had never been done. The witness admitted destroying receipts and erasing entries from his oash book in order to coneeal the bribery. Instead of wasting time over a Commission war- rants should be issued for a score or more of these plunderers and have them get their full deserts at Sae band of the law. Many a poor man has had to pay the penalty for small thefts and am- ' bezzlements while these gentry trusted with the administration of publio affairs have been fattening by their ill gotten gains. It is hinted by the Toronto World that Hon. Mr. Haggerty's de. partment may be opened up to public view also when other startling revela- tions are expected. (ones -a1 Iews. The Shah of Persia is seriously ill. Ex -Emperor Dom Pedro is improvi in health. At New York Monday $600,000 go was ordered for export. Sarah Davis, said to be 138 year's age, was buried at Indianapolis Monde Five youths were drowned off Donega Ireland, Monday by the oapsising of pleasure boat.

Barns were destroyed, live stoo killed and large trees thrown to th ground. No loss of life is reported bu details are meagre. A. feature of Chinese econorriy just die covered at San Francisco has 'created some alarm. On the tops of many of the buildings in the quarter (=opted by the Celestials wooden kitchens have been constructed. They are made of rough boards, and the chimneys in them extend scarcely above the gab roofs. Here all kinds of ordinary and laundry operations are carried on with reckless disregard of the constant danger frorn fire. The 'mace between the buildings, on narrow alleys, has been utilized in the same way. Sometimes these fire boxes are three stories in height, with fires blazing in them constantly. He had a car to himself, and at one station up in the Alleghany Mountains had left his car for a minute or two to run forward to the engine, whioh was taking water. The water tank was di- rectly west of the great tunnel, and when the tender was filled and the oar started the mail clerk sprang for his oar. The entrance to the car was on the side and a solitary handle was grasped,where. by the clerk pulled himself up to the door, To his horror he found that the door had been jarred shut and could not be opened from the outside, and the eee- ond he dieeovered this fag the train shot into the tunnel. With a desperation horn of a terrible death stating him it the face the °Jerk hammered and kioked on tne door and shrieked for help, but the noise of the train drowned his cries, and with both hands grasping the handle, his feet on the iron step and hie body glued to the side of the oar for fear of being dashed off by the jagged sides, he was carried through the tunneto As the tunnel is a mile long and the atmos- phere therein is almost stifling, this luck. less mall cleric's experienee 3Etn better be imagined than described. When the train shot into daylight again the engin- ear looked back, SS is the custom, to see if his train was following all right, and diectovered the clerk in his harrowing peeition. Quickly stopping Ins engine the engineer ran baok, and with the as- sistance of the conductor helped the al. mOst demented man to the grouna, where he utterly collapsed,the strain Igen his nerves being too great. For six monthe be was under a physioian'a care, and after he had become a well man again be said :—"/ thought that tunnel was ton miles long, and my head, I imagined, was hollow, with the dense smoke rushing in my mouth and nostrils and coming out at my ears like ateam pipes, Whenever I think of that ride my brain role, and I feel myself (smelting es I did upon the outside of the oar during that horrible experience." ng Id of y. 1, a se (Ultra eoutinues to opreed in Mem.

The English have learned by experience to buy. from lotto of several barrels poured out in heaps upon the floor. Mrs. Thomas Lochridge shot her three ehildren and herself about 1 o'clock Lost Sunday efternoon at her home in Nash- ville, Tenn. Mrs. Lochricige was BO years of age, her eldest ohild 4 years old, Mao second 3 years old and the third 4 months old. The awful deed was done with a double-barrelled breech loading shotgun. As near as can be learned from the surroundings Mrs. Loohridge had drawn up her children's clothes one by one, placed the gun sgaiost their heart and fired. Then she placed them side by side on a pallet, which she had made for the purpose, and arranged their dress neatly about them. Standing at the feetland probably gaziug down upon the the distracted mother placed the muzz of the gun at her own heart and sent he own soul iota eternity. She left a net Lor her husband, which shows that he mind was affected. The London Times thus summarize the harvest prospects of the world. I Russia there is it grave deficiency, th peasantry are staving and there is mai hope of relief. In India it serioo anxiety prevails over a considerabl portion of the country, Madras, Rajub atha and the Patmjale are the wors sufferers. There is drought in Bangs and the need of more rain is urgent Bombay alone promises a good harvest The American harvest will he good in quality and amount, but with the failure of the Indian and Russian sup plies it is of the utmost importance tha the English orop shall not be short.
