SS ITS OUR RED MEN, We have received from the Depart- ment the Repert of the Superintendent of Indian affairs from British Columbia for 1872 and 1873. The Report is not void of interest and for the short time the com- missioner has been in the department the report is full. He divides our British Columbian Indians into eleven nationalities numbering in all about 28,000 , Wo men, and children. The Cowicans are the most numerous being 'over 7000 strong ; Tsimpsheans come next 5,000 in number ; then the Quackewith's 3,500 and so on down to the Comose with only 100. The moral, intellectual; and babi. tual picture drawn of these Meople is not over reassuring #nd appear to indicate that our lately acquired 'red brothers and sisters are no great credit to the family ond may likely prove a bill of expense ere Jong. The Cowicans way be regarded as the aristocrats of our Indian tribes. They dabble a little in Christianity and are well advanced--as Indians--in Agriculture.-- They bave an Anoual Industrial Show amongst them in which the handy amongst the women show some fine work. The men in general look to fishing and hunting for a means ol subsistence. Education bas no place in these tribes and agriculture is at a sad discount -- Their marriage ceremonies are not overly complex. 'The suitor gives a small sum of money or other gift to the guardian of the girl he wants, and if the guardian or relatives are satisfied he may take away his bride without further ceremony and she has got litile to say in the matter. -- There is no restriction as to tbe number of wives: The commissioner says : ¢ The women of the coast tribes are depraved and "corrupt--virtue being al- most unknown and unappreciated by them. 'The young girls of the northern tribes, especially the Quackewliths, are sent down regularly to Victoria and various places ou Puget Sound for the purpose of pro- stitution. After a sojourn of (bree months they retarn with canoe loads of whiskey and other proceeds of their ill gotten gains, which are given over to the chiefs and their tribal relations. 'I'he disease and drunkeness consequent upon this dis- gracelu! mode of life causes a large de- crease in the population of these tribes.-- 'The coast tribes retain many of their barbarous customs, the existence of which totally unfits them: for the higher life of civilization, and, morally speaki ale most degraded. Being both thievi¥h and Hicentious, their corruption and depravity under the present system is promoted by . the lower grades of the white race, with whom they are mostly brought into con- Bad whiskey is said to be the grand stumbling block in the way to Indian im- grovement, Large quantities of this active poison are both given and sold to these miserables and if had before they get it they become perfect devils under its influ- ence and the darkest, blackest crimes in the calendar of drgradatien are then but pastimes fie : The Dominion will doubtless be called 10 incur Abe expense of exten: ¥ hen ow to. these, se | from Port Perry was "also here. AK INTERESTING SIGHT, " The gtand display of celestial fireworks in the shape of flying stars, will doubtless be looked for by many of eur readers on the night of Sunday, 10h inst., and in order to make no mistake there will be no harm in having en eye sround early on Sunday morning. The earth in her rapid annual wheeling round the sun, passes about the 10th of August, through a belt of meteors nearly 200,000 miles wide. These meteors are the dispersed fragments of a comet which before it became disorganized paid us a visit once in every 120 years. Ittakes the earth about 6 hour to pass through this belt of meteors and when it passes through the belt in the night time and the weather favorable for seeing them the display of meteors is gorgeous, It is supposed that at least four millions of these flying stars (meteors) cross our at- mosphere every day and deposit matter enough on the earth's surface daily to add 1,000 Ibs. to the earth's weight. These meteors bring us specimens and show ne the composition of those bodies found in the far off realms of space. Be on the look out early and late on the 10th, ttle A-- hin EXCURSION SEASON. We are now in the midst of the Ex- cursion Season and all classes of the com- muni'y appecr determined to participate in 'this highly rational, inexpensive and in- vigorating mode of spending a holiday. -- There is perbaps mo better eriteron by which to judge of the moral and intel- lectual status of the people than by the manner iz which they spend their boli days. Parties doubting the truth of this proposition bave only to turn up the pages of history to have these doubts effectually removed. We go still farther and assert that the present stability and at least the immediate future of a people may well be judged by the character of their spotts.-- Not that we would attempt to assert that the manner of spending their holidays or the character of their sports is the means by which a people is established and made great. The people under these circum- stances being left to the free selection of such manner of enjoyment as they prefer, show by their selection of such only as cast that the public mind is sound and therefore gives every reason to hope for a still brighter future. . When the hands of a clock or watch regularly indicate correct time we-do not attribute this to the hands put to the machinery which moves them ; in like manner it is not the spending of the holidays which effects the stability of tbe natjon but it is a sure indication of the soundness or uasoundness ol the delicate machinery of the mind of the people which controls their choice in the character of their amusements. A moral and intellectuai people united in purpose are invincible and must advance. Happy would that nation be whose public amusements were all such as the wisest and best could sanction, parents could approve and the clergy and laity join with no discredit to themselves, either as active participants or spectators, and a properly conducted excursion comes under this category. -------- GRAND UNION EXCURSION. --_ ' The Grand Excursion on the 1st inst. from Whitby per 1ail and Port Perry per steamer to Washburn Island was a capital affair. At early morning the weather looked about as threatening as an August morning possibly could ; it seemed more to threaten a deluge than offer the slightest prospects for an excursion and this doubtless prevent- ed many who otherwise would have been there from a distance. But as the morn- ing advanced-the wind veered to the N. W. and speedily cleared the heavens of its murky clouds and ushered in one of the finest days of the season. The indefatig- able committee who appeared to have no misgivings as to the weather went on with their preparations and bad everything in readiness when the time approached.-- About 8:30 a. m. the train from the south came tearing iu with about 250 excursion. ists ; these were met and welcomed at the station, All soon got upon the boat-- boat djd we say ? why! the fieet! there were two steamers and two scows all abreast. After a rousing display of the strength of lungs of the steamers and cars the party--about 500 was whistled "all aboard." The fleet sot sail and from its formidable appearance give one a faint idea of the lavibcible Armada of Spain's palmier days. The arrangements were complete, noth. ing being left unprovided for which could in any way contribute to the enjoyment of the party. Tiere was an' abundance of choice music provided and . the light fan- tastic was indulged in without restraint. -- On arriving at Washburo the scene was most exciting; bere were some two hundred representatives from Lindsay who bad just arrived on board that excellent craft the Champion. id steamer Vao- derbilt which carried excursionists There then six fine steamers hovering {around the island. . A hearty and friendly reeting took place between the northern tents of many made to change po o-osition 2s a ell filled baskets were | Protonite would say. Afrer Ei ing, '| varios amuse were indulged in, parties selecting those best suited to their tastes. A large number preferring aqu- her. took to the to boats to take part. One watch or | of the chief attractions was a yacht race - | between Lindsay and Whitby, or, perbiaps more 5 bet | toria and Oniuno for he champignship -of | awl The race was a ten mile ove f are of a highly moral and intellectual ds, after which the con- |' ted | sale from this time vp t -- acknowledge with some confusion that our otherwise noble county came in a fearfully bad second-- there were only two boats in the race-- Lindsay beating bos aotagonie by at least two miles. Our Whitby friends bad better go into training in nautical science for some time ere they again seek to measures prows with the Tin y eons of Neptune. \ There was some bathing but from the proximity of so many eyes the parties did not divest th Ives of their garment not even of their hats. Two chaps got into a bark canoe--not a canoe couch damask--and being anxious to show her keel to the crowd tipped her over and slid into the water, They got to shore alive. The home trip was equally pleasant with the outward. The municipal officials, did themselves credit and added to the interest of the occasion by their presence and thoroughly enial habits. The worthy Reeve of Whitsy town, Colonel Donovan ; of Port Perry, Joseph Bigelow, Esq., and of Scu- gog, W. 8. Sextcn, Esq, all took part in the proceedings. The committee are deserving of all praise for the excellent and complete ar- ravgements for the comfort of all. The names of this committee will in future be regarded as a sufficient guarantee for a pleasant time. et en ANOTHER EXCURSION, An unusually pl t took place on Tuesday last, 5th_inst., under the auspices of the officers and teachers of the Port Perry Presbyterian Sunday School. The day selected happened to be one of the finest of the season. By 10 a. m. a cheerful, intelligent company, numbering close upon 250, set sail on a scow attached to the tidy craft ¢ Oniario'® for the now famous rerort, Washburn Island. About 80 of those on board belong to that class to whom we look with confidence as the future hope of our country --the child- ren, especially thuse belonging to our Sun- day Schools. There were four rev. gentle- men aboard and a preity fair representation of all otkers interests. The music provided was on a generous scale and though we bad only one instrument (an organ) we almost hal an unlimited supply of the sweetest of all instruments, the human voice divine, and an abundance of choice pieces supplied both going and coming.-- The organ was well handled by many of the ladies present to whom, with the gen- tlemen and others 'who took part in the singing, the company was munch indebted for some charming music. Mrs. Thom, the good lady of the Presbyterian minister, Port Perry, also Mre. Bates, the good lady of the Baptist minister, Port Perry, Miss Harrington, Miss Walker, Miss Bush, Miss Thom aud one or two others whom we did not know, all did capital service on the organ and most of them sang particularly well. So that the trip which from the ex- cellent arrangements, egreeable company and pleasant weather would in itself have been highly enjoyable was rendered doubly 50 by tho extellent music. Arrived at the island a general scramble was made for the heights, where after the necessary pre- limmary of re-victualing, the company en- gaged in a variety of amusements. But we had not been long there ere a some- what formidable flest of six boats was. seen in the offing coming (rom the Cartwright shore. In order il possible to appease the approaching foe--as we supposed-- we gave them three rousing cheers, and as they approgched we found that they were thoroughiy equipped for war, provided even with a medical staff of which Dr. Mont- gomery, Williamsburg, was chiet of staff. A nearer approach, however, brought on a mutual recognition and 8 general shaking hands was the result. Our good friend the Dr. and his numerous companions were heartily welcomed. The inexorable whistle reminded us that pleasant spot. It certainly is a pleasantispot, one of the most charming which one could wish and once its beauties become better known they will be more highly appreciated and enjoyed by large numbers who are not now aware that so charming a resort is fo be found witha few miles from Port Perry. Washburn Island 'contains 400 acres of land one half of which is owned by Mr. Cody, of Oshawa, and the other by Mr. Washburn, The land is well timbered but the timber is neither heavy nor valu able ; but a comparatively small expense resorts in the Province. The scenery from the [sland is very good indeed. The sail home was in every way equal to that going out. Little worthy noting took place on the way if we except a few pairs of loving ones who gave every symptom hat this would be the last trip they would take in a state of single bless- edness, while scme of the reverend gentle. men displayed considerable tact with an eye to bis. in going up to the young can- didates for a change of lite and making their particular acquaintance, and--we suspect --lettiog them know where they may be found if their services are re- quired in any way. Taken all in all we never took part in a more enjoyable com- pany ; and all credit is due to the Com: mittee for the excellent and highty satis- factory arrangements. ------------ eee REMOVAL: AN IMPORTANT CHANGE OF PLACE OF BUSINESS. We call public attention to Mr. Rob- erts' new advertisement which will be found in another column in this issue.-- 1t will be seen that he is about (on the 1st of September next) to remove his Mammoth Wardrobe from his present place of business to Davis" handsome New Block in one of the finest busi locations in that highly prosperous village.

A somewhat formidable wheat ring has just rudits course in the city of Chicago.-- The term Ring being justly regarded as disreputable by these cunning tricksters they have adopted the somewhat eofter title of " Corner" by which to designate' their knavish tricks. Here is the way they work it. Say that it 1s a wheat corner that is to be formed j a number of those having the largest of funds and well up in the business agree together that up to a certain day' say two or three weeks hence that the sale of gain shall be so re- gulated as to secure the price ata given figure, at least it shall not be allowed to fall below that figure any of the time agreed upon by the ring. To make it profitable the corner men must have a good supply on hand and they must control all that comes to matket while the corner lasts, getting it as cheap as they can but allow- ing no outsider to get it at any price ; by this means 'they get full control of the market. There are grain dealers who have pot been taken into the ring and these too must have grain, some to fill crders, others to keep mills But the members of the ring have got hold of the grain and secure all that comes into market so that others have to purchase from them, and theysonly sell on the rise ata given date, i. ¢. the price shall be gulated ding to the market price of that day (fixed by the ring) when payment is to be made. The puy day is never put too far off as the ring might not be adle to control the market so long ; but it must be put a certain time ahead in order to give them time to raise the maket to the figure agreed to amongst themselves and as much bigher as possible. From the time the ring is formed every effort is put_forth to raise the market up till the time agreed vpon, and in order too this they must secure all that comes in at whatever pricg it can be got. The only danger attending the operations of the ring is that they may not be able to control the market, that the high prices may divert grain from otber markets and come in in larger quantities than the ring can take or dare risk ; in which case they would be fairly chrushéd, an event which has taken place more than once ; but in gen- eral the ring have their plans laid so se- curely that they come out all right and the outside dealers are made lo smart. We bave juet had one of these Corner opera- tions in Chicago, Cnicaco, July 31.-- The excitement over the crrner in wheat was not so great after the close uf the regular Change this p. m., and prices dropped to $1 40, which appears to have been the figure the ring had st as the minium price for settlement. A good many shorts were settled at this price, but a few are still out, and will, perhaps, try to make a market to-morrow forenoon upon which to settle. The amount of shorn wheat was much less than is psval mn a heorner, and though some parties have been rqueezed pretty hurd, there are no failures | reported, and it is not believed there will be any. Chicago, Aug. 1-- Wheat was kept up by corner until 1 o'gl ck) pony to $1.40 cash, the figure upotr which the ring were mak= ing seitlements ; afier 1 o'clock, the time for making market on the corner having expired, the price dropped to $1,19, FIGHTING SHY. San Francisco, Avg. 1--Thus far only nine ships have cleared with wheat car- goes from this pert against fourteen to the same time last year. Farmers are inclined to hold the new crop anticipating higher prices. . eee RISING TO EXPLAIN, pb Mr. McMullen, whom the Toronto Mail newspaper has been holding up to the world as the perfaction of rascality, bas asked that paper to rise and explain and with a view to compelling his Mailship to rise, McMullen bas commenced an action for libel against the that newspaper.-- Mr. McMullen bas retained Mr. Kenneth McKenzie, Q. C., and Mr.. Robert A. Harrison, Q. C., as his counsel in the case. Messrs. Mackenzie, Delamere & Brooke are the attorneys for the plaintiff ; and Messrs. Robinson & O'Brien for the defendants, The damages are laid at $50,000. The cause, it is expected, will be tried at the next York Assizes, when Mr. McMullen and tis accuser 'will con- front one another in open court. --_------ MANCHESTER MONTHLY FAIR, The Manchester August Fair will be held on Tuesday, 12ih inst. The activity of the late fair both as regards ready sale and fair prices will doubtless be more than sustained at the coming fair ; we expect also to see a large number of fine cattle offered and lots of good buyers to take them, Farmers and eattle dealers generally cannot be too frequently reminded of the great benefits these fairs confer upon them aod of the: prime necessity there exists for keeping the monthly fairs in an 'efficient and actiye state and still in- creasiog from month to month. All concerned ought to determine not only to give their countenance and moral sup-- port but their personal presence as fre- ueotly as possible, and a small amount of penal help when pecessary.

The municipal council of Cartwright met | L0Jges at their Hall, Williamsburg; on Monde 4th inst. Members all presens--the i in the chair. ¢ 'The minutes of read and approved, 3 HL, (The Reeve stated that he had 'placed in his hands by Mr. Hamphreys, an acconnt for sidewalks in the village, amounting to $68.97 less $25 being the amount of com. muted statute labor for the village: The account was demurred at by the Council and laid over till next meeting. Mr. Hyland presented the account of H. Humpbreys, 79 rods of ditching at 85 cents per rod and 12 rods at 50 ceuts per rod, making in all $73:15, less $10 already paid on said acconnt. : On motion an order was graated in favor of Mr. Homphteys for the balance $63.15, Mr. Hyland presented an account ot $5 for work done. Z On motior an order was granted tor the amount. The Clerk read a communication from the Co. Treasurer setting lorth that the amount to be collected by the township of previous meeling were Gravel Road is $420 and for the Municipal Loan Fund $55. : The Reeve stated that he had not had an PP ining the p since the last meeting and consequently could not report as he had expected. The Reeve stated tht in consequence of the obange of site of the school house of School Section No. 9, it became necessary for the accommodation of said Section that the road between the 8th and 9ih conces- sions opposite lots 22 and 23 be opened for travel. On motion the Reeve and Mr. Hyland were appointed a committee to examine the road with a view to estimating the probable cost of the work and report to next meeling of Council. Mr. McRae came before the Council ask- ing to have his lot in School Section No. 6 section No. 9. \ Mr. Smith, a resident of section 9 urged Mr.McRae's case with considerable warmth Mry Philp, a resident of No. 6, took Mr. Smith to task, said that Mr. Smith bad a greater regard for Mr. McRae's assistance in maintaining his section than any regard he had for the convenience of the children. Mr. Philp plead like a lawyer for sec-- tion No. 6 and urged that many others in the section were as badly situated as Mr. McR4e and besought the council not to make the change without due .considera- tion and that they need not mind Mr. Smith as he only came to the council when he had some favor to ask. Mr. Smith then asked the council to eppropriate a sufficient amounf to build a culvert, and gravel a certain portion of his beat as the Ratue labor cou!d not over- come it. Mr. Hyland said he would advise the council to be cautious how they made appropriations this year as the taxes will he high the best that can be done and every effort will have to be put forth to keep them at least as low as possible and any road that can We got along with at all ought not to be touched during the present vear. The council need bot mind Mr. Smith for his road is not by any means so bad and he is generally asking som: grant. It must not be forgotien were the general taxes of the township no larger than usual many of the school sections will be very much higher than usual on account of building new houses or repair. ing the old, so that in the meantime road or other appropriations ought to be kept at the lowest possible rates that ean be got along with and he will oppose the grant asked by Mr. Smi bh. On motion Mr, McRae's application was laid over till next meeting of council. On motion the sum of $10 was granted to Mr. Smith in answer to his request. The Clerk stated that all the path= masters who had made their returns had the work all completed except Mr. Van- camp's and on that there were a couple of days which had not been done, The council ordered the amount to be put on the Collector's roll to be collected with the taxes. The Reeve called the attention of the council to a defective culvert on the gra- vel road opposite where the 7th con. line strikes the gravel road. This culvert is nearly opposite school section No, 7 and in wet times the children can scarcely get across it at all and certainly not without getting into the watef, On motion the Reeve was impowered to have the work done aud present the ac- count to the council al its next m:eting. Mr. Wm Dinsmore opplied for a small appropriation on the side live between the 4th and 5.h concessions. . Ou motion the sum of $20 was appro- priated and Mr. Taylor was appointed commissioner to expend the same. > On motion an lorder for $4.50 was granied to Mr, Goggin fot eedar furnished by him. * ! The following amounts were asked to be inserted on the Collectors roll by the trustees of the several School Sections, viz: Section No. 2, 8280 ; No. 4, $240; No. 5, 8300; No. 6, $1,200; No. 8 $475 ; aud No, 9, $420. Mr. Parr introduced and carried 1hrough a by-law to provide the above sums. Mr. Fallis complained that the quarter line between lots 18 and 19 requires repair as some' of the logs are giving way and must be repaired. On motion Mr. Fallis was instructed to see to repairing the same, the cost not to exceed $5. The Council then adjourned to meet on the first Monday in September, ODDFELLOWSHIP, x ite and those who know its principles best admire it most.

It is supposed that one of the carpenters lit his pipe and thrgw the match on the floor and put his foot on it.-- Supposing that everything was right he went up stairs to work, and happening to look down saw that everything was in flames. He had just time to get out of the building but could not save the tools or any~ thing else. Loss not more than $600. rather expensive smoke. 0 Bese A DARK TRAGEDY.

THE BILL ON ITS THIRD READING, London, August 1--The bill granting £25,000 per annum to the Duke of Elin- burgh, on the occasion of his marriage, came up to-day lor a third reading. Sir Charles Dilke made a long epeech against the grant. Mr. Gladstone replied with bitterness, characterizing the persistent opposition to he bill as indecent. Mr. Muniz, membet for Birmingham, protested against the epithet ¢ indecent." Mr. Gladstone then withdrew the offen- sive expression. Mr. Newdegate asked if the marriage would be solemnized according 10 the forms of the Church of England. Mr. Gladstone distinctly and absolutely declined to answer the question. Mr. Anderson, member for Glasgow, moved an amendment providing that in the event of the Duke of Edinburg succeeding to the Grand Dachy of Saxe Cobourg, the annuity should cease. After further debate, the amendment was withdrawn, and the biil passed in commit- tee. UNHAPPY SPAIN. * The Spanish rebellion increases in fero- city.
