Chaplean will retire from the Cabi• net at a very early day. It ie also said he has been offered the posi- tion of Lieutenant -Governor of the Provinco of Quebec, but so far has not accepted it. following will give the impressions of his late trip to Japan;. A' very interesting ball hour was spent yeeterdey with H. W. Meyer, Q, 0,, of Wingham, Ont., by a repre. 'tentative of the Free Prem. Mr. Meyer chatted pleasantly ou many topics, chiefly in connection with. his late visit to Japan ; he has evi- aently beth tit ettiervant tiefeelTer and he brings out many interesting points about perhaps the most inter- esting country in the world of to- day. Mr. Meyer thinks that in- tending visitors to Japan should lose no time in making the trip, as the life of the couutry is raptdty losing much of its pristine interest and Unique character, owing to -its becoming so punch "Europeanieed" not to say civilized. The month of April, the time of Mr Meyer's visit is, he thinks, the very beat season to tarry there, for the land then looks its loveliest,, and the foliage is wonderfully beautiful. He mentioned Kioto and Nikko as two especially charming spots, whore also are the finest temples in Japan. At the former- place there aro fine waterfalls and rapids, which are "shot" by the traveller. Mr. Meyer said much concerning the modes of locomotion of the country, and extols the Japanese railways. Several are run by companies and the rest by government, The Japs are now makii g their owu cars and and engines. A three-foot six inch guage is adopted in the coun• try, in confoamity with the natural teudeocy Co a small to a small scale throughout the country. The Jap - 'mem make excellent engineers, end their service has been made use of i» India. As long an a Jap, undersized himself, confines his work to a email scale the result is stip and correct, but in anything olarge proportions the fact that their eyes have not been educated to large dimensions become appar- ent; for instance in a large building such as a hotel, their architecture and construction go astray. The rickshaw is the chief conveyance fot ordinary travelling, and with good men thirty-five miles a day can be made; the lives of these rick- shaw men are much shortened by their work, and they rarely test more than nine or ten years. It may not generally be known that the jin rickshaw is not a native invention, but was' first introduced by an Eng- lish missionary. While in Yokohama Mr. Meyer met an old Winnipegger, John A. Peebles, formerly manager of the Hudson Bay Company store here. He is now in the commission busi- ness, Atihanghai he was pleasantlysur- prised by being tapred on the shoulder with "Why, Harry, how are you 1" The tapper proved to be the former chief of the fire bri gade when Mr. Meyer was mayor of Wingham. Mr. Meyer advises any tripper to Japan not to take lace boots Ivith him, but those with elastic sides, as on entering any ,tore or private house you have to take ori' your boots and adopt a pair of sandals. A polite but firm hint is invariably given as to the necessity of thio. Chairs are but seldom seen, anddho traveller soon becomes adept at sitting on his toes, -Tho chief characteistice of the Japs are, in Mr. Meyer's opinion, their painstaking industry, their exactness, and their imitativeness. In reference to the last they have modelled their army on that of Germany, ever since their victory in the Franco-Prussian war. Ger- man is a language that is very much studied, and the well educated Jap has the command of both the Ger- man and the English tongue. Mr. Meyer was much interested by a visit over the penitentiaries of of the country and says that the prisoners are well cared for. The institutions turn out all manner of manufactures and compete with trade. He thinks a good- trade for Canada could be opened up with Japan in butter, cheese and apples; also in flour, which is at present largely imported by C. P. It. steam- ers from San Fi•ancisno. Beef is scarce but:Kobe beef of "mall cattle is excellent. Mr, Meyer found "Canadian Cod" on the bill of fare at the club in Shanghai. It is necessary for every traveler to be armed with a passport and thereon is inscribed - Tho local regulations referred to above forbid the following and similar offences: 1. Travolling at night in a horse carriage without a lantern. 2., Attending a fire on horseback. 3. Disregarding notice of "No Thoroughfare." 4. Driving quickly on a narrow road . .a. 14ot err r4ftlwltl to pie tarty or- brldgo tell, • D04tkuiltia4 'i r d.Qfitpernellt of Itotioo boarli4, h*uee, taiga or wile poste. 'T.

Treepassiug ou fields, planta Ilona, enclosed or genie preeervea. 10. Lighting flree in woods, or on hills or 1n04re, Mr. Meyer ,poke very highly of the excellence of the C. P. It. line of steamers, The ordinary Eng- lish globe trotter, a prince of grow- lers, can feud absolutely nothing to erurrsble at in their appointment and fare. The vontilatiou of the Enlistees of Japan is so good that Mr. Meyer could go blindfolded into-tl,e oabiu with -Lea -Chinese.. therein, and not toll by his nose he was among pig tails, "What is Sir Edwin Arnold thought of in Japan 1" asked the" scribe. Mr. Meyer's answer was not at all favorable to the poet, and corresponded not a little with re - porta that have been published of Sir Edwin's disregard in Japan for the proprieties, or rather for his parade of improprieties. Mr. Mey- er belives that the immorality in Japanese cities is !rut e0 much native as the etfebt of "civilization," for in the iuterior of the country ordinary morality is a fraud. The mikado does not set his subjects a briltaut example, for he has some thirty concubines, and the acknow- ledged heir to the throne is the off- spring of a concubine, Mr. Meyer was taken ill on his return from the coast and spent some tinso at Calgary recuperating, enjoy- ing much the fine air there, lire thiuke Calgary worthy of more con= sideration from the C. P. R. as to the time of arrival of their trains, and pleads for a reasonable hour. Mr. Moyer also visited the Prince Albert and Edmonton districts and was much impressed by their re- sources andadvantages form mixed terming. He dwelt not a littleon the progressof the west. "Ten yearsago I wasin Regina and there was not a building; new there is a find town. Teti years ago'I thought Winnipega fairly _easy place to fine my way about in, but 1 find -now I can veryeasily get lost." THE CULTIVATION OF HERBS. Front Harper's Bazar, Thyme, marjoram, sweat basil, summer savory, sage, caraway, cori- under, fennel, dill, rosemary, laven- der -what a sweet old-time sound these names have, and how they suggest good cheer, pleasant old- fashioned gardens, stores of fragrant linea, and calm, wrinkled faces in quaint bonnets enjoying a ruabbatli rest in the old meeting house, a fra- grant leaf or two held with the fold- ed handkerchief in the work -worn betide! The time wag when every garden, however humble, bad its plot of herbs. Some to be used in com- pounding remedies for various ills, some for their sweet odors, others as garnishes and flavors for certain dishes, the receipts for which have been banded down, for several gen- erations, from mother to daughter. What a 'search through store and market there is to find the particu• lar herb wanted ! Very often when found it is in the form of a little package two or three inches long and two wide of dried leaves and stems, and it is well the label says what kind, for neither taste nor smell can determine. Doesanot this suggest to the girls and women who. live in small town's, villages and on farms, and who desire and feel the need of earning money, one way in which it can be done? A reason often given for the general and widespread diecontent among young women with village and farm life is that there are so few things a woman can do in such places to earn money, and that in a city opportunities are plenty. Is it not possible the quick eye to see and the energy to use the oppor- tunity is the chief lack 7 Gardening does not require more strength of the expenditure of more musoular force than many kinds of housework, and is certainly more healthful. Exercise in the pure out -door air, and working in the soft, brown earth with the clear sun- shine over all is nature's own tonic, and it will give tone and force to the whole system. Why not try the cultivation of herbs in a real strong business effort for the money it will bring? -Passengers in the sleeper at•• tacked to the Baltimore & Ohio ex- press, which passed Newark, 0., at two o'clock ono morning last week, complained of a peculiar noise under the car. The train was stopped, when a horrible discovery was made. A man named Henry Edwards was stealing a ride on the trucks. Ilia body had fallen off, his feet catching and holding to the trucks, while his head was bounced from the road bed to the bottom of the car for miles, being literally beaten off.

The two retired to bed between ten and eleven o'clock, Mrs. Balfour at the time complaining of a pain in her left side. A few minutes after Mr. Balfour got up to get sonso mustard or something to apply to the region of distress, but hearing his wife snake a peculiar sound, he raised her in his arms and he found that life had fled. The trouble was some affection of the heart. The deceas- ed..was not much over thirty years of age. -There was a very funny motion e before Master in•Chamb rs Win - cheater, Toronto.

He never received money directly or indirectly from Ross & Co. for election purposes or from any of the directors of these com- panies, and had never had any deal- ings with them. He did not re• member any conversation with Sir A. P. Caron relating to the election fund, but had himself asked antis scription from various persons. He had no.knowledge of the money having been taken out of a railway subsidy. Caron did not say where the money came from. -A St. John, N. B., special to e Globe says :-Rev. Sidney ilton, Baptist minister, Rev. C. Wilton, retired minister, but ently agent of the Union Mutual urance Company, and Dr. E. C. ndall, of Hillsboro', N.
