The latest advices from Indian Head, near Chief Pieapot's reserve in the North- west,state that the Chief and 70 lodges. about 600 men. were threatening to raid Battlelord it they did not get assistance. The onl Indians now out on the reserve are five odges, and they are all sick and unable to get away. Chief Pieapot and five sub~chiets had a talk with the Indian agent. and stated they would do no harm it they are led. but could not, and would not stay on their reserve. as it was too low and swampy. and that their people are dying. live and six each day.

A large glacier on Tunnel Mountain took an immense slide on Saturday night. and hundreds of tons of ice came thundering down the side of the Rockies. The men in the various camps along the line were roused from their sleep, and every one imagined that the mountain itself was tumbling down. The noise was heard many miles distant. Advices from the end of the O. P. R. track report that tin has been discovered in the lower Selkirk range in British Columbia by a party of miners prospecting for gold. A similar discovery was made some time ago at Barney’s Peak, in the Black Hills region. The mine in the Selkirk is said to be a surface one. and to contain an extraordinary abundance of ore. ‘ The Calgary Herald reports the discovery, ‘ a few days ago, of a very fine specimen of natural cement on the banks of the Bow River. a few miles west ef the town. It is the same kind of material as that which was found near Morlev last fall. and which is reported to he plentiful in Florida, where The Calgary Herald says that the March and April “Ives on the ranches have nearly ell been saved, and are now lively and hesrty.

The other night Sarah Miner, daughter of J amen Miller, C.P.R. section foreman at Regine, eloped with John Kellett, another section foremnn, who was boarding at Mil- ler's.

The British newspapers have been dis- cussing lately the earthquakeon the eastern coast of England With an amplitude which shows how the nearness or the novelty of an event has often more to do with the attention paid to it than its intrinsic im- portance. Historical researches disclose that in 1816 an earthquake " twisted the spire of Aberdeen church ;" and that in 1813 a like calamity “ damaged buildings." and that in 1852 a shock threw down some walls at Shrewsbury. Obviously. however. all these disasters combined were'nct equal to the trembling felt on the 23rd of April at Colcheeter. Langenhoe and . Wyvenhoe. where chimneys and some other structures were actually tumbled down. This, to be sure, is not quite so bad as what has hap- pened to Casamicciola and Caracas. but it provokes even that scientific authority. the Engineer, to say that “ it needed but slightly greater velocity of wave particle not only to have laid low the towns in the eastern counties. but to have made mountainous heap. of briokbats and rubbish of London." Mr. Kilpatriok, Smishston. one of the oldest farmers in Ayrshire, died on April 22nd. He was over 80 years of age when he died.

He was Vice-President of the North Chicago Rolling Mill Company. and one of the rich- est men in the city. He created a great social ssnsat ion by marrying Lizzie Thomp- son, one of his servant girls, on March 26th last. and had just returned from an ex- tended bridal trip to occupy a new 8100,- 000 home.

The Princess is spoken at as having great delicacy of features. but with a sameness of expression. “ Dignity and graoelulness." it:is said.

Let young men be teetotalers, if only for economy's sake. The beer money will soon build a house. If what goes into the mash- tub went into the kneading trough, families would be better fed and better taught. If what is spent in waste were only saved against a rainy day. work-houses would never be built. The man who spends his money with the pubhcan. and thinks laud- lord's bows and “ How do you do, my good fellow ?” means true respect, is a perfect simplston. We don't light tires for the herring’s comfort, but to roast him. Men do not keep pot-houses for laborers’ good ; if they do they certainly miss their aim. Why. then. should people drink “ for the good of the house?" If I spend money for the good of any house, let it be my own. and not the landlord's. It is a bad well into which you must put water; and the beer-house is a bad friend, because it takes your all and leaves you nothing but head- aches. He who calls those his friends who ‘ let him sit and drink by the hour together is ignorant, very ignorant. Why. Red Lions, and Tigers, and Eaglesand Vultures are all creatures of prey, and why do so many put themselves within the power of their jaws and talons? Such as drink and live riotously, and wonder why their laces are so blotchy and their pockets so bare. would leave ofl' wondering if they had two grains of wisdom. They might as well ask an elm tree for pears as look to loose habits for health and wealth. Those who go to the public-house for happiness climb a tree to find fish. ._ __â€" Vivâ€"Q w a- mirror. All night long the sailing ships went on their course. All night long the sea-gulls and other birds. of which by the way there are marvellpusly few in N orway. were flying acros's our bows. and the minutest objects on shore could be distinctly seen. The effect was intensified by the appearance of the moon. which was at full ; and just as the sun set in a warm glow in the northwest. the moon became prominent in the southeast. clear and cold and silvery. As going to bed *on such a night was out of the question. we remained on deck till sunrise. which came ‘about 2 o'clock. As that hour approached the glow, in the northnortheast became more intense. Suddenly the orb appeared in a niche formed by the intersection of two islands, and sent out level rays which flooded the islands and the hill-tops with young light. Presently as the vapors on the rocky islet became condensed, a weird halo was formed around the sun’s disc. so that it seemed like the eye of an eagle look- ing out on the desert of waters. Deep and dark were the shadows cast by fishing-boat and rock. The shimmer on the rippling water was like that of moonlight. By-and- by. as the sun got clear of the horizon. rosy hues stole over the sky, and nature rejoiced in the glories of a new day.â€"â€"Good Words. Rev. G. H.

In June. the sun sets between 10 and 11 ; it rises again before 2; so that. though its orb is below the horizon for three or four hours. there is sunlight all through the night. Snob. at least, was my experience last June. In the far north- west there were streaks of clond,gray. rose. pink, orange and purple. beneath which the sun suddenly dipped into the sea and went out of sight; but the glory of sunset con- tinued all night.

During the three years mentioned. 11,564 stray dogs were captured in Paris and the Department and deetroyed.â€"S¢. James' Gazette. The bite of a mad dog. it would appear. is not so fatal as is generally supposed. A report upon the subject for the Department of the Seine, issued by the Paris Prefecture of Police for the past three years. shows that of 156 persons bitten by rabid dogs in 1881, 80 died ; in 1882, 9 out of 67 bitten died ; and in 1883, 5 only cut of 45. With regard to the treatment of the bite of a rabid animal. the experience of the French doctors shows that the only remedy which can be depended upon to destroy the virus is the prompt application to the wound of oautery by red-hot iron. Twenty persons died of hydrophobia in the Department of the Seine in 1881. 9 in 1882, and 4 in 1883, as far as the oflicial returns show.
