The only Di could have been offered by the President to the attacks made upon him, and in this way the novel idea was turned to a useful and altogether unimpeachable purpose. Uf course the professed interviews never took place, an | everybody understood s0; indeed, there has been a good deal of disâ€" cussion as to whether it w«s the President or the journalist who wrote them. They were accepted for what they undoubtedly were â€"cleverly conceivei and well writ ten articles in vindics ion of the Chief of tha Executive carrying with them much more force and directness than mere newspaper editorials, aad yet evading the scope of the conventional rule which mule it a breach of etiquette for that ofticer to address himself to the public expressly, or in any other way than by a mestage to Congress, . That the plan served the purpose o( those who resorted. to it well, and that the appeals thus adâ€". dressed to the reading public bad the anticipated effect, is conclusively proved by the hold it took almost imâ€" wonder is that men of the intelligence dnd education by which * interviewers‘" genâ€" erally are characterised could be induced on any consideration to do such dirty work. Some of the forms into which ‘interviewing‘‘ has resolved itself, have been of such an oftensive character that many of the papers which still adhere to the practise in other and more elevated shapes, have protested vehemently. Of these protests, the latest we bave seen is , rhuaps one of the most welcome, as it is one oi the most remarkable. It comes from the New york Heraild, a journal wiich, beyond any other that ever existed has done more to debase and bring into disgrace and disrepute the whole profesâ€" sion, and especially the "interviewers." Perkhaps the testimony owes a good deal of its force to that very circumstance, in the same way as does the declaration and warning against crime of the sentenced but penitent crimival. As oar readers doubtless know, two very celebrated perâ€" sonages in the United States, visited by a sovere dispensation of the Almighty‘s providence, hâ€"ve for some years been bereft of _ reason, and _ have _ of late been submitted to the restraint of a lunatic asylum. The personages in question are Mr. Robert Dale Owen, the veteran scholar and philanthropist ani Mrs. Abrabam Lincoin, wife of the late lamented President of the United States, whose tragic fate accounts for the unfortunate calamity that has overtaken his widow. It would be the very least Uhrre is probably none among the many degrading customs which have of lat« years characterized American jourâ€" nalism more repugoant to the cultivated taste than the practice of "interviewing." ~o gieatly, indeed, has it deteriorated from the s anding of the journalist whose} business it is, that the modern "interâ€" viawei" is regarded in a light very little more favourable than the common in former. The public men of the United States, from the frequency with which their views are set before the world in the: torm of an "isterview," might be supâ€" posed rather to court the system than otherwise, but the truth is that they have been kicked and cuffed into acquiescence by those who control the newspapers. Lhe origin of the ipiquitous practice, or at least that which gave it vitality, was of its¢il a very harmless, and under the cirâ€" cumstances an almo«t necessary proceedâ€" ing, 1t is almost needliess here to say that it arose from the fact that an Ameriâ€" can President, who was very much abused by lis opponents, and whose mouth was practicaliy shut except when it became his duty to address Congress by message, detecmined to turn his familiarity with the Washington _ correspondent of the New York Tribune nto good account. He accordingly arâ€" ranged with his friend for the publication of a series of "interviews," in which it was represented that certain questions were put by the correspondent with raâ€" gird to.current to pics, and certain answers returned by the President. The questions were so arianged as to elicit in reply the most plausible and forcible defence whic h Mr. Mackellar had no influence, and deso: ved to have none. â€"In proof of this assertion it pointed out just the other day that he had only a majority o0! seventyâ€" tive in West Kent at last election, which it regurded as an iniallible sign of his waning popularity. _ If, therefore, in his capacity of a member of the Government le was hbalf as weak and wanting in inâ€" tluence as was represented, as Sheriff of Wentworth, a| Logether separated from the political arena, without even an office in his gift, he must be a very harmless in:â€" dividual indeed. _ The Mail draws a comparison letween his couduct in the premise= and that of the Lieut, Governor, who declined, at least for the ume-bo'mg,' a banquet which his old constituents proâ€" , josed to get up in his honour. The illustration is probably about as farâ€"fetch, ed and inappropriate, and the circumâ€" stances about as widely different as they could be. Besides, the Mail is not aware, «nc lias no mode of informitcg itself, for whint reason Governor Macdonald de: clined tor the present the proffered honâ€" our from Glengary. We undertake to’ ay that the exrlanation it offers is by no neans correct, and the inferences it lraws equally wide of the mark. INTERYIEWING to the peculiar duties of his position till 1852, when a terrible fire de: astated a large portion of the city aud struck terror into the hearts of all. During this year Mr. Perrigo (now clerk of the Bonseâ€" cours Market) resigned his position as chief of the Brigade, wherenpon Mr. Bertram was appointed in his place. After that period he was entirely occuâ€" pied with matters pertaining to his posiâ€" tion, and the Brigade was assiduously drilled and its arpli&nces perfected under his personal supervision. . The Volunteer Brigade then numbered 400 men ; but when the new water works system was brought into use, and it was found that there was a hydraulis pressure sufficient to put out fires, he advocated the general reduction of the brigade and the establishment of a paid force to look solely after the protection of the city. The matter was discussed in Council, and finally the volunteer system was entirely discarded, and the force reduced to a strength of 57 mén and officers. During the wisit of the Prince of Wales to Canaâ€" da in 1860, the chief and the brigade took an active part in tha display and torchlight procession, in recognition of which he was presented with a haridsome silver cup by sever:l friends, and in 1363 _ the _ firemen _ presented him with _ a _ beautiful and _ ingeniously carved â€" silver fl)blel., the â€" foot _ beâ€" ing a minature. hydrant, and the bowl supported from it on delicately carved hooonl:{-. As years passed, the brigade gradually grew in discipline and in the number of appliances which it could make use of in waging war on the fire fiend, the small Shand and Masou steam engine being the most im.po'n:l.nn. of these. This was christened "A. Bertram," and proved a& valuable auxilliary. In 1873, when he had been Chie{ Engineer far 20 years, the membars ol the br gade preâ€" sented him with a magnificent oil portrait of himself in costume, which he prized very highly. He has been connected with the Fire Department of this city for 33 years, and up to the beginning of this summer had always devoted himself closely to his duties, being present at all fires nd‘ponondly aiding his assistants and the force of their operations. lHe was always anxious to promote the happiness and welfare of his men and _ while _ strict _ in _ discipline yet his frank manner and fair spirit made him much endeared to them all. The deceased last July became troubled with a chronic affection of the intestine organ, and by the advise of n physician went up to Caledonia Springs in the hope of obtauning relief. However, the mineral waters did not aflnu to have the desired effect, and the Chief was obliged to return in a debilitated condition and suffering considerable pain. lHe took to his bed at his residence, CentrT‘ Fire Station, Craig street, and though a&li that was posâ€" sible was done for him, he grew no better, the disease (gastic fever) running its Mr. Bertram will receive a public funâ€" eral at the hands of the city. ‘The fo}â€" lowing, so far as arranged, is the order of procession, open, of couse, according to alterations as other organizations or inâ€" stitutions signify their intentior of taking The Ottaws Ladies College, opers on Wednesday the 1st a»ember. r!(r.

May we ever be preserved from the visitation. It is with no small degree of regret that we announce the death of Chief Bertram of the Montreal Fire Brigade, which took place at his residence yesterday morning. le was born in Berwickshire, Scotland, in 1811, the sou of an industrious blackâ€" smith, which business he learned with his father. _ When twentyâ€"three years old he came to Canada, and soon aiter enrolied himself as a member of the Volunteer Fire Protecting Company, continuing with it till 1841, when the Fire Department was reorganized with Mr. J . B. g‘mnsdon as chief engineer. Ne was then brakesâ€" man on engine No. 4, the Cataract, and graduaily rose to be branchman, next lieutenant, aud before 1340 was made a captain. That year he was nppoinzed assistaot engineer, and, being a very) acâ€" tive and steady man, he became invested with much respousibility in the manage ment of the forces. He received a gift from his fellow firemen on the occasion of his elevation to be assistant engineer, and continued to devote much of his time outrage cannot be more appropriately characterized than in the words of the Herald, when it says :â€"" lt is a calamity " unspeakable and â€" farâ€"reaching when @ people of any .station of life, not to < speak of Mr. Owen and Mrs. Lincoin, " fall under the shadows of so terrib e & institutions in which th and the couductors of newspapers, ebtertain q idea, for every odd day the journals in questior with glowing accounts . ravings of these un ortuni that could be expected with refererce to two such persons that, as the Herald puts it, they "would be proterted in their &« sorrows from the prurient gaze of the ° sorrows lrom the j © public."

This _ portion | of the journey ended at Wanghyen, and { after that the r0ad traverses a vast plain, | over which numerous villag s are spread, | about one to two miles apart. All the villages are enclosed in mud walls, and at a distance look solid, but when seen close they are miserably defended by such ‘ wal‘s, the greater part of them being out .of repair. ‘The population of this proâ€" vince is quite up to the estimate of 38,000,000, if one can judge of it from the inbabitants of the plain I came across. I {:used the large city of Laiâ€"chuâ€"foo, with iigh walls of stone, and another city of Chang yi with very fine .stone walls, and the place where I am now is a vast city of 250,000 inhabitauts, with magnificent stone walls about seventy feet high, with battlements, and moat grand in appearâ€" ance.

It was a curious feeling to find myself and a missionary genueman (living here) among a crowd of Chinese miners, about five hundred men keeping a ring round us as we advanced, lovking at us with astonishment aud concern, but with no hostile feeling or a word expressive of dislike, and there was the appearance of respect arising out of the feeling, * These foroifinon can help us to keep L‘he water out of our mines and allow us to work them arnid gain our bread.‘ This is what they seemed to be saying io themselves all the while.
