The result of the contest at the polls on that occasion showed .*>16 Conservatives. 78 Liberal-Unionists, 101 (ihulatonian Liberals and 85 Parnel-litcs. In the interval there were a number of bye elections which went against the Government. The Gladstonians also gained back one or two of the seceding Liberals. But at the close of the year 1887 the respective strength of the patties was practically unchanged, as may to seen from the following figures: Conservatives, 313: Liberal-Unionists, 77; Gladstonian Liberals, H4: Parnellttea, 86. The gain is on the side of the Opposition, but it is inconsiderable, except in so far as it may indicate a change of sentiment on the part of the constituencies through the country. _ Outside the country the failure of the Ventral Bank is being pointed to as evidence of a serious commercial crisis in Canada. There is really nothing to justify this. The investigation in Toronto the past few days has shewn that the causes of the collapse lie altogether outside the general business situation. The Central was not conducted on business principles. Every precaution required by good banking seems to have been neglected, and dealings of the most reckless character were indulged in. Any financial institu-ti n falling into its ways must surely come to grief. The wonder is that the end was in t more quicklj reached it has come, in view of what has hum made public, should not cause serious apprehension.

Her course lay beside the lake she so strangely loved. When the searchers picked their way through Lake avenue, they saw in the new enow where the woman’s dress had dragged, and where she had stopped to listen to the lake, which she could not have seen in the darkness. The footprints showed, too, that Mrs. Lathrop had quickened her pace as she drew near the harbor, as though her diseased mind had no control over her body when within hearing of the surf. At the mouth of the river the searchers found Mrs. Lathrop's shawl. A hole in the ice showed where the body had fallen, but nothing more was found. Mr. Lathrop, whe is nearly prostrated by grief, has offered a ieward of $500 lor the recovery of the body. The river has been dragged, but without success.
