Fuel in the Northwest.

at Edmonton, to which station
most favorably reported on. Asa proof of
its value, it may be instanced that, mixed with a certain proportion of coal, it can be
applied to blacksmith’s work. If used by itself for the latter, unless very carefully handled it burns the iron, so intense is the heat evolved. It is believed that not only are there beds of lignite in that region, but also indications of coal in seams, sixty or seventy feet thick, which will have to be worked by boring into the banks of the river. This fact in itself is an indication of the value of the territory, and should be the means of inducing a large number of emigrants and others to take up their resi- dence in the new country. When on the subject of coal it should be mentioned that Colonel Richardson says that when he left Winnipeg there was a coal craze there, as that mineral was reported to have been dis- covered in the Pembina Mountains, some two hundred miles from the city. The pro- moters of the scheme for working the seams are of opinion that the coal can be taken direct from the mines te Winnipeg down the river on flat-bottomed boats. MISCELLANEOUS. While a man was employed at Petrolia, Ont., on Friday last, in clearing a ear tank with benzine he became overpower- ed by the gas, and was rescued by the fireman of the works, Mr. Geo. Cook, at the cost of his own life. Mr. Cook be- came asphyxiated while in the tank and before he was got out life was extinct,
It is reported that the stery told in Britain by the returned farmer delegates is causing numbers of British farmers to direct their thoughts towards Manitoba.
The consequence is that each English}
mail that reaches Winnipeg is laden with letters of enquiry addressed to the Do- minion Land Agent there.
A Leaat Conunprum.—The fellow- ing question is to be discussed by the Halifax Law Club at the next meeting : ‘A hires a wharf from B, for the pur- pose of shipping a cargoe of cattle, and nothing is said about the condition of the wharf or the number of cattle it could sifely bear. A drives his cattle on the wharfaod breaks it down, whereby the wharf is injured, and a number of the cattle are lost. Who is responsible for damages, A or B??
The Allen weekly mail S. 8. Sardinian, Capt. Dutton, arrived at Halifax on Fri- day from Liverpool with the English mails and 429 passengers—382 immi- grants, 21 intermediate and 24 cabin. She also brought 802 tons tons of Cana- dian freight and 1,363 tons for Baltimore, for which port she will sail to-morrow. The Sardinian made the quickest pus sage ever made by weekly boats from Liverpool to Halifax, beating tho best passages of the Peruvian and Moravian by three hours. The mails and passen- gers will be forwarded immediately by especial trains.
SrraAnce DEATH.—A young man named Allen McKiel, a resident of Long Reach, lied rather strangely a tew days ago. He had eut his foot slightly with an axe while chopping wood, and as the wound was not a serious one, had taken no precautions in covering it. A day or two after receiving it inflammation and erysipelas set in, which speedily commu- nicated io his body, hastening death in a very short time. He had been in the habit of wearing a pair of colored socks, and it was stated by his friends that the coloring had poisoned the wound.— Globe.

Mr. Trtpex’s Wearre.—If Mr. Tilden cannot become President, his riches would probably be envied by many who have oc- cupied the White House. Mr. Tilden is far richer than people think. There is said to be reason for believing that he is worth nearly $20,000,000. His stock speculations during 1869, show profits in two months of $500,000 and of $1,000,000 during the
year.
Farr Noticr.—Here is the way it is done in Australia.. An Australian paper recently contained the following notice :—
“T, Fanny Harris, have not heard of my husband, George Harris, for seven years, arid if I don’t hear from him previously, I intend to get married again in two months.”
A very business-like notice, certainly. The absentee should now put in an appear-
ance. Coming later may cause unpleasant- ness. Alex. Robertson, of Dundonnachie,
Perthshire, whose name has been promin- ently kept before the Scottish public during the past twelve years in connection with his legal battle with the Duke of Athol, is in Ottawa. His main object is to ascertain the feasibility of settling a colony of Scot- tish farmers in the Northwest, and to con- fer with the Dominion Government as to the inducement which might be offered to the farmers at home to enter upon such a course, and what facilities would be placed at their disposal.
* In Searcn or THE Hyre Estate.—Says the New York World of Thursday :—‘‘ Ex- Governor W. F. M. Arny, of New Mexico, the First Vice-President of the Association of claimants for the Hyde estate, sailed for England yesterday, in the Algeria, taking with him two large trunks filled with docu- ments which he hopes will enable the Hyde Association to get possession of the many millions of pounds sterling belonging to the Hyde estate and kept in the Bank of Eng- land, and also two other trunks filled with specimens of the ores of gold and silver mines in which he is interested, and in which he hopes to interest English capital- ists. In another trunk he has a bed-quilt composed of 2,000 pieces of silk and made by Mrs. Stewart, who is eighty-five years old and one of the Hyde claimants, for Queen Victoria. Mr. Arny will begin pro- ceedings at once to get possesion of the Hyde estate. He said that there were over fifteeen hundred claiments already, and that the pedigrees of other claimants would be forwarded to him weekly. Two more representaves of the estate will go to England in December. Mr. Arny said that Judah P. Benjamin had been retained as the Associations counsel.” ——- ~+e Astonishing Success.
It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderful qualities be known to their friends in curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumouia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No per- son can use it without immediate relief. Three doses wiil relieve any case, and we consider it the duty of all Druggists to re- commend it to the poor dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask your Druggist about it. Sample Bottles to try sold at 10 cents. Regular size 75 cents. For sale by all Druggists.

CATA RRHEA,
Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES CATARRH.
Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy.
T. J. B. Harpinea, Esq., Brockville, Ont. :— Dzar Sir—It is now two years since your “‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced tome. I have waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be “‘too good to true.” I was afflicted in my head for years before I suepected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit upin the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite clear of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head, A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see rroper Yours truly,
W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister. Port Elgin, Ont., Aug. 24, 1878.
