Splurge Causes Excitement-- The Great Cotton Famine--An Honest Man is Dead. Letter Correspondence; No. 1,395). ew York, Feb. 12.--The week just ended has been one of continual elec trie shock. The cotton market, Tuesday, d to pl ise fortunes for She hixioks ee led into ing large 8, but, be- fore the week was ended they found themselves almost literally stranded, and realized most bitterly that cotton was no longer king. One 'day it was 'THE DAILY WHIG, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 13. Gi tocrat; and in another a democrat of wealth, but he seemed y to God's almoner; he associated. with the wealthiest in the land, but he recog- nized that those who had never known fortune's smiles were his fellow men; he fulfilled the old adage: "If you see some poor fellow drép by the way,. : Don't give him a treat. nor ask him to Don't' uve him alone by himself to make shift, But stretch out your hand, man, and give him a lft." William C. Whitney reached out his hand to the poor men and lifted him up. He found him straightforward, and honest, and a stoker om a loco- motive; his good conduct had gained him /a 'conductorship on one of Mr. Whitney's railroads. In the mgke-up of men that win the great prizes of life, we find energy, honesty and am- Lition; it was these qualities that Mr. Whitey found in him; it required money to be a director of any of these railroads, and Mr. Vreeland had none; Mr. Whitney supplied it and) made him president of the street rail- road ition in New York. This was but one of the many acts which marked him as a foremost citizen of his times. Many of his farreachifig charities will never be known except to God, the recipient, and himself. He was a broad-guaged man, whom the city can but poorly afford to spare. It was not merely as a railroad man up higher than Babel's towers, the next, the speculators were struggling Si and a speculator that he was known.

'they for- got the old philosopher's caution "Never put your arm out further than you can bring it back." If New York was peralyzed with the different changes in the cotton market, Man- chester, the great weaving depot of Lagland, suliered- worse; - her looms 'were stopped on account 'of not being able to secure the raw material; thou- sands of spinners and weavers wander- ed the streets with starvation staring them in the face; and they then re- alized more fully their entire depend ence on the United States for their supply of cotton, which was to them their very life-blood. There have come to the surface wild dreams of some place which shall give a supply of this important article. Perhaps on the banks of the Ganges, or on the recently acquired acres in South Africa between the Orange Free State and Cape Town. Every spot on the globe, where cotton could possibly be grown was looked to with hope, but failed in realization. No substitute has been found for the fine-fibered Sea Island cotton, so beautifully - delicate, that y's shawl 3 a piece the size of a lad might be put into an ordinary thimble. A speculator is here now, who means to make Corea, from whom he has received concessions, a rival of the 'United States, in the raising of cotton. Here, and in England, he proposes to raise several millions, to transport negro cotton farmers from the southern states, furnish them with fortable homes in Corca and give them land and tools to work . with, where millions of acres are ready for the plow.

It was like an electric shock to New York City when the word came that William C. Whitney was dead. THE BOLE DRUG CO., WINNIPEG, man up it hard to bear, He was eminently a William C. Whitney was secretary of our navy at the most critical time 'in our history. While he occupied this office, the time came w wooden | ships could no longet be trusted for the national defence; the discoveries in electricity and other powers map- ped out the way for the greyhounds of steel, which, in defiance of wind and wave, cleave the ocean at a speed of twenty-five miles an hour. No such radical cha in a great power had ever taken place before. All De to the memory of our noble secretary who has been called from our midst to receive his reward. He needs no eulogist to record his imperial. ser- vice to the world, for om the stome beneath which he sleeps the epitaph shall be, "Here lies an honest man." | BROADBRIM. Catching Cold.

It is proposed to divide the kpisco- pal diocese of Nova Scotia Lape bre ton and Prince kdwafd Island would go to form a new diocese. 'the joint committee represending the two Methodist Connexions in Irclanda has agreed on a basis of union which is to be recommended to the two con- ferences. To Archdeacon Sandiord, one of the best known *+ the clergy of the west of England, has been entrusted the work of editing the Archbishop Temple. The unanimous call of St. Paul's church, Nelson, B.C., to Rev. J.T. Ferguson, M.A., of Cupar Fife, Scot land, has been sustained by the Pres- bytery of Kootenay. Rev. J. A. Morrison, formerly of Ta- ronto, but now of St. John, N.B., has received a call to the First Presby terian church, at Chicago. 1his church has a notable record. At a meeting of the board of the Methodist church an invitation was extended to the Rev. Mr. Sykes, past or of St. James church, Montreal, to become pastor of the Smith's Falls church. Rev. J. Flanagan has raised £2, 000 of the £3,600 required for purchas- ing. the freehold oi the St. Ueorge's Hall, Southwark, the headquarters of the Primitive Methodist South-east London mission. : The selection of Prebendary Bev- an, rector of the Chelsea, for the archdeaconry of Middlesex, England is meeting with strong opposition, on the ground that Mr. Bevan is suffici- ently provided for already. The Presbyterian Church Missionary officials in the United States are much interested in events in Corea. They have 312 churches, with 6,391 com- municants: and 6,000 Sunday school pupils in the Hermit Nation. Rev. John F. Damon is dead in Seattle of pneumonia.

Centennial Methodist church, Vie- toria, B.C., has a young men's club that has rooms fitted, up for reading, games, etc. It is aiming at providing a means of social enjoyment among voung men who are without friends in the city." The board of Trinity College, Dub- lin, has offered the heads of the Rom- an Catholic church pemmission to ap- point a suitable person to look after the religious training of Roman Cath- olic students in the university, but the offer has been sternly refused. In the last three years more than 2,000 have been added to the South- ern Baptist mission churches in Braz- il.

Dr. Dickie, of the new Ameri- can Church in Berlin, a Christmas gift of $1,000 to be applied to endow "The Canadian Pew' for the use of students or visitors from the Domin- ion. Mr. Jordan desired in this way to establish a memorial of his moth- er. Benjamin Fay Mills has launched a new religious crusade, with social and economic bearings, in San Diego and Los Angeles. His gospel, he says, is "a restatement of the fundamental truth that unselfishness is the solu- tion of every individual and social problem'; it is "Christian in the true sense, and teaches that the life we be- lieve Jesus to have liyed is the life. men ought to live, and it recognizes the same gospel at the heart of every great relirion." Not many people are probably aware of the fact that the founder of the En~lish Ragged School Union is still alive. Samuel" Robert Starey is eighty-three years old, but can still take a keen interest in the progress of the work in which he was a prime mover so many vears ago. He has re- cently written a letter to the children who are helping the Ragged School Union, and in it he says : "My work on earth is almost done--vours is just beginning. pe I would commend to vou the loving care of other child- ren less favored than vourselves--the oor. the crippled, the blind, the rac hatever vou do for them in the true spirit of Christ, you do for Him, 'Voluntary' Christian work should be the very best work done on earth.
