A correspondent of the Now York Sun writing from Montreal , says that Caitad : has more elements of revolution wlthii hei'M'lf than any other country in the nvorld. I Us public opinion is more unsut tied , its factions more equally divided fo good or evil , its national hostilities more bitter , and its religious differences witl more scope for action than can bo foum among any civilized people on the face of the globe. One can generally tell : maii's political opinions as to the dcsti ny of Canada by the religion , national ! ty , or local habitation of the people. The Irish-Canadians arc to n man in favor o the nnnexation of Canada with the United States. They know that anncxa lion would put a stop to Orange aggression sion , imported British ollirialism , and re move the ling of Kngland from this con lin ut forever. J know the Irish Catho lies of Canada well. I have met them it every part of the country from NOVJ Scotia to British Columbia , nnd 1 novel know half u do/.en of them to .say tiia they whould not hail nnnexation witl J03' . As a rule their organs such papers as Iho Quebec Telegraph , the Montreal l'o l , the Toronto Irish-Canadian , ami others advocate "independence , " bir men who know the people know thai "independence" JH only the clonk that rover's their "treason" to the crown 1 have spoken to Irish Catholics who are on the bench , others who are in the sen ate , and members of the house of com mons , more who arc among the lore- most in commercial pursuits and so ciety , as well as the masses of the people ple , and they are all , with phenomen ally rare exceptions , in favor of seeing the stars and stripes flutter at the llag- stall'of the seat of government al Otta wa. Among their English Iriends they may not intrude their opinions indeoil , if challenged , they may passively acquiesce in the statement that they are willing to let well enough alone ; among themselves the question is never raised but it evokes a hearty * approval in such phrases as "I hope I may never die until 1 am a citi/.cn of the American re public. " Whoa you consider that the lioman Catholics constitute about one- ninth of the population , you will , sec that there is , to start with , an important national element friendly to annexa tion. ritlKNDS Ol' ANNEXATION" . 15ul apart from the Irish Catholics there is a strong commercial body of the people who favor iacorporqtiou in the union. 1 could name scores of Iho leading merchants in Montreal , Quebec , Toronto , and all the leading cities in the Canadian confederation who arc pri vately anxious to see Canada annexed to the United Slates for commercial rca sons. These men want to secure tinrc .strictcd commerce with the Mates. They would rather bo dealing with 00,000,000 of people on this continent than with lr , > UOOUO. They would like to see Ameri can enterprise the St. hawrcnco with factories. They think the great water power of the country \v\\\ \ \ \ never be properly developed until Americans come lioro unil utilize it. These men do not agitato. They are not politicians. They arc above everything shrewd inon of business , and they favor annexation as a means of benefiting1 the country commercially , irrespective of religion or national prejudices. Once the move ment for annexation is started , these men will come to the front and lead the people to the goal. But besides the Iiish Catholics who favor annexation on sen timental grounds , and the commercial class who favor it on business principles , recent events hayo brought over largo numbers of the French-Canadians to the same cause. The French-Canadians have hitherto opposed the union of Canada with the United States beeau o they tcared that their nationality would meet the fate of their compatriots ol' Louisiana. They feared the loss of their language , their institutions , their laws , and perhaps their religion. They know that they could never exert the same inllnence in Wash ington that they did , until n few days ago , at Ottawa. At present the French- Canadians command more than one- third of the patronage of the Dominion and all of the patronage of the Province of Quebec. If they wore annexed to the Unitcd.Stares their share in the patron age of the Republic would bo small and their inllucnco only little. Then , too , the French language is ollicially recog nized in the Parliament of the Dominion and flic legislatures of Quebec and Mani toba , , and the fear of losing this honor ami advantage has made the people hesi tate before they committed themselves to annexation. A iorn : or SAND. But the hanging of Kiel has accom plished wonders in a few days , The French-Canadians are beginning to see that they are not strong enough at Otta wa to save the life of a man whom their people were unanimously in favor of rescuing - cuing from the gallows. They sco that the Orangemen of Ontario are stronger than they , and bettor a thousand times , they say. to trust to American honor than Orange fanaticism. They are now dis cussing the question of annexation with more coolness. They sco that , as a state of the American union , they would linyo morxi i > ow0rtlmn-tts , a province of the Canadian confcdnrntion. They would have the control of their own stale mili tia , a power now centered in the govern ment of the dominion. They would have the election of their own governor , lieu tenant govdrnor , Iho state officials , county court judges , and others , all of whom are now appointed by the crown. Then , too , they are beginning to see that congress woufd not interfere with their educational K.ysk'n ) , and that religious liberty is a.s secure in the United States as it is in any country in the world. All the French-Canadian * do not see matters in this light , but that this feeling is growing deeper and wider every observant readout of Canada too well knows , and wlinn it becomes power ful enough to tuko fchupo It will then not lo ) long before the local legislature at [ Quebec , hacked Ijy the voice of a million iTonch-Canadians , will bo the Jlrst to ask tor admUs.sion to the union. When wo add to all this the hostility of Nova Scotia. Now Brunswick and IVmoo Ed ward Island to the confederation , it is not dilllcull to foresee ncontingency which might induce a rupture nt any tour , and the rope of sand which now binds the Dominion together may fall to pieces , YOUNG JIl'.X FOR INUKVKNni'XCK. Jiut the annoxationjits form onlv one faction in thn rovolutionury'oht'mcnt which surrounds us. If a portion of the Fivnch-Uanadlans and all the li-foli Cath olics are Jn favor of this change , there is n siroug clement , composed chiotly of thoyonng Knglishmeiv Scotchmen , and ititivo Canadians of British origin , who no line toward making Canada an indo- tcndonl nation , Thoao young men are eprcsMitcd by such papers a the Mon- real Star , which has the largest circula- Ian la Canada , tlui Toronto Telegram , inJ olluir panel's of independent flews , It \v.is only a few weeks ago that the Young Men's reform convention nt Toronto rejected "independence" 1 > .V a narrow majority , and it is well know n that several members of parliament on both sKlcs of the house of commons nn. In favor of the change. These men pro fess to sco no reason whv they sliouli nay $20,000 a year to an Ltur.lihmen , an msltni'in , or a Scotchman to come out here nnd nominally govern without rul ing over the people. They do not likp to see the public olllees al Otlawa crowded by the oul-at-elbow younger sons of the l-'n-'lish families. They think that a Ca nadian can bo lound u ho would be qtmli lied to command the Canadian mili'ia nnd that the importation of a British ot licer to perform this duty is not Haltering to llm intelligence of the people. They want to sco Canada with a Hag of hei own , a small navy of her own , n consu lar service of her own , and they think if this were once had that the conflicting elements of which the country is com posed would merge inton compact whole nnd that the immlgrnnl of yesterday would become the Canadian of to-day ; us with you all nationalities are absorbed 11 the words , "A citizen of the United States. " Many French-Canadians favor this programme. Its ad vocates are found on both sides of poli tic" , although Sir John Macdonald re cenllv said Ihrttof llus two independence or annexation he would prefer the hit ter. The independents think that once they were free from British connection the people ot this country would become "Canadians , " and cease to be Irish Eng lish , Scotch , or French Independence they say , would have the fame oiled 01 the immigrants as it has had in the United States , nnd that "Canada for Canadians , " native and foreign born , would become the cry. MKK A I'OI.ITtC.U. VOLCANO. Hut there is another faction which goes to the opposite extreme. Instead of mak ing the country free from British con nection , there is a growing feeling in some quarters for drawing Canada still nearer to the crown than sliu is at present. A short time ago n .society was lormed in Montreal which had for its object the federation of the British Em pire with imperial representation for all the colonies in the in the Hrilish house of Commons. Some of the loading mer chants of Montreal became members of this organization. They advocated federation because it would , Ihey .said , bring increased hc- cur'itv nnd glory lo the colonies. Cana dians would then , they contended occu py posts of trust ami eminence in the army , the nnvv. the Indian civil service , and all the poVilions in the gift of the crown. November 1 the Hon. C. N. Skinner , of St. Johns , N. B. , said nt a public meeting in that city that "federa tion or disintegration mlis'l come to the British Empire , ami 1 hope it will be the former. " This may not be , indeed , L know it is not the prevailing opinion among the people of New Brunswick.but that the feeling in favor of fedoraUouJhas many supporters there is proved by the fho fact that the views of Mr. Skinner were received "with applause" Hut this is not all. It is natural to sup pose that among so many conflicting ele ments as to the future of the country there should be a .strong party in favor of Canada remaining as she is , with the "golden link of the crown" alone tying her to Hritain. As the Irish Catholics arc anxious to see annexation an accom plished fact , so arc the Orangemen anx ious to preserve British institutions , and "loyalty" is everywhere the watchword. These men are aided by most of the olli- cial classes , the greater part of the older Scotchmen and Englishmen , and by all that class of men who sing "God Save the Queen1' ' and "Hulo Britlania" at public festivals. In argument , tllo.se men will tell you that they have the'pro- lection of England without the expense which independence would involve. They say that Iho English navy protects Canadian shipping ; that English consuls hoc that Canadian Mibjocls abroad get fair play , just as iniicli as any other Uritisn subjects ; that the governor-gen eral sent from England places the high est ollice in the land above the clamor of political turmoil , and that it is an advan tage to have an experienced British ollicer in command of the inexperienced troops of the Dominion. They will te.lt you that Canada has nothing to complain of ; that her people have responsible gov ernment to Lits fullest extent ; that they make their own tariff , nnd even impose duties on goods of English manufacture. When reminded that Canada _ cannot make its own commercial treaties with foreign counlrio.s , they will answer that that , too , has almost been conceded. With this view the Orangemen unani mously agree , but between the four con flicting elements the future is dark nnd uncertain , and no one can we'l ' tell what may happen next. One toing is certain. Canada possesses nil the elements of revolution , The country is like a. political volcano , and the upheaval may take place sooner than expected. _ James J.

Hight alongside of this mine , in continuation ot the same ledge or formation , is the Tread well claim , owned largely by San Francisco parties , which is supposed to bo equally rich in ore.

DICK MAYO'S BOYS. Why an Ol l Kellow Know that They Wcro Not Illicit. Distillers. Many an amusing peouo , says the Ar kansas Traveler , is wilne 3od in the United States grand jury room. The man from the lulls cannot be nuido to believe that he has violated Iho law in making whisky , for , ho argues , Ihe con stitution of the united Stales graanled to his father the rlgnt of making whisky , and that ho should enjoy all tlio rights enjoyed by his father. Technically he mi > bo right , but the government has but liltle respect for his lofly opinion of human liberty. Old Buckley CYeiishaw is a wr-11-kiiown eiti/eir of one of the northwestern counties of Iho stale. There arc severa 1 illicit dislilleries in his neighborhood , ami although there is no proof that ho engage1' directly in Iho distilling of "straight goods under peculiar circumstancec , " yet it was strongly suspected that ho possessed information that might lead to the conviction of other men ; accordingly he was summoned to appear before the United Stales grand jury. The deputy marnhal found aim chopping wood , lie swore that ho knew nothing. "Unt you must como with me"said the deputy marshal. "What's Utouso ? " "We won't argue that point. I was sent to _ bring you , and you are going back with me. " "I've got some work lo do Ihal knin'L bo mil oil' . " "That makes no difference. " "Wall , let's go lo llio house nn' git a snack loeat an' then wo ken go. " The ofiicor accompanied , but when they reached the house the old man sud denly disappeared. Finally Iho marshal found him in : i hollow log not far from the house. Ho came out , after the ollicer threatened to set lire to the log , but , even then the difficulty was not over , for the old man had to bo taken away at the mu//.lc of a revolver. When hq was brought into the grand jury room ho looked around carelessly and sal down. "Ton are 3Mr. Uuckloy C'ronshaw , I be lieve'said the foreman. "Sodol. " "Where do you live ? " "At home , when I'm thar. " "Where is your homo ? " "Wall , Cap'n , I vo been hus.-lcd around so much lately that I ain't cer tain. Don't know that 1 could find my way thar of you witto turn mo loose. " > : \Vhy did you object to coming here ? " " 'C'au o I ain't got no bus'ne.ss to transack here. " "Do yon know the Mayo boys ? " "Old Dick's boys ? " "Yes , I think so. " "Do you know old Dick , Cap'n ? " "No , I think not. " "Ton oughter know him. He'd treat you white of you wux. lo go to his house. " "I have no iloubt ofthat. Now , re member that wo want you lo loll the truth. If you don't , you lay yourself liable to fine and imprisonment. So 5'oti know the Mayo boys ? " "Old Dick's boys ? " "Ves. " "Wall. " "Do yon know whether or not any of them h'avo over distilled whisky ? " "Cap'n , 1 want to ax you a question : Don't you think it's wrong fur llio Guvcrnmont ter let a man do a thing an' then say his son shan't ? " "Well , wo are not hero to discuss con stitutional rights. Do yon know whether or not any ot the Mayo boys have , with in the last year , engaged in the unlawful nmmifacturo of whisky ? " "Air yo still talkin1 about old Dick Mayo's bovs ? " "Yes. " "An1 you way you * don't know .ole Dick ? " "Never mind about the extent of my acquaintance in your neighborhood , I lisked you if you knew whulhor or not "Viirt , 1 know you did. " "Well , why don't you answer my What do you want mo to sav ? " "I want you to toll the truth. " "Then you don't want mo to uny much , I reckon , I have alias noticed that the less n man says tlm more truth he tolls. Now thar's old man I'ryorthat j'ines ' pla ces with mo I believe ho ken talk all dny nn'not tell mor'n ono truth he " "Wo euro nothing about old man Pry- or. The Mnyos are now under discus sion. ! ' "That's whal I 'lowed. ' " "Then why don't ' you answer my ques tions" "U'ul musll say ? " "Whether or not you know of the Mayo bovrf engaging hi the manufacture of un lawful whisky. " "Wall , let mo HOO. You want mo lo bo certain , don't you ? " "Of course , i do. " "Don't want me to make no mi-stake ? ' ' "No , I do not. " "Wall , I'll tell you , Dick Mayo' * boyti never made a dnip o1 whisky. " "Remember that j'ou are swearing to thin. " "I know that , an'I'll sw'nr to il agin if you want mo lo. " 'Mr , Crcnshfiw.

Tellins n Ktisjlttvo All Aliinit tlio I'u- jjithv How tin-Deiioinuoiil Came. Detroit Free Pivis. Some limo ngo a conlhlcntial clerk in the employ of n llrm In Indiana skipped the gutter with seve ral thousand dollars in rcad.vfetish. While it was determined to hunt him down at nil ha/.nrdH the linn did not leel like wasting a great dual of money in so doing , A one-horse country detective was therefore employed and after a while he traced hib man to Detroit. The de tective did not propose to share nnj of the glory with Ihe Detroit ollicers , nnd he slid around for u week before he learned that his man was in Windsor. Then he went ovrrthcro , hlill working on the quiet , and : i nice young man at one of the hotels informed him that the de faulter had just gone to Toronto , but would be buck in a"few days. The pair became hi1IrieiiiN ! and the nice young man had his daily drinks and eig.tr.at the detective's expense. The two came over to Detroit and attended the theatre and had good times , -md it was the opin ion of the oiheer that lie never met .such a nice young man. Finally , a night or two ago , as they landed from the boat on the other nidi1 , the detective inquired- "You must bo an agent of homo sort ? " "Oh , no , " was the reply , "I am simply Iravoling for pleasure. " "Where do you live when at homo ? " "In Indiana. " "Why , I'm from Indiana ! " gjJ"Yes' , you told me so the lir , t day. " "Whereabouts in IndianaV" Q"Vincennes. " "Good gracious ! but my home is only three miles from Vinccnnos. " "Yes , 1 know. " "What did you do in VinconucsV" "Clerked for Lath & Shingles. " "What ! Why , that is , the very lirmlhat was robbed ! " "Yes , I know , was the placid roplj. "And your name is what ? ' ' queried the dvteetivo. "William Ureon ! " "Great scotsi bu < 3'ou arc the chap who stole the money ! " howled the ot- liccr. "Yes , certainly ! Whal arc- you going to do about it ? " calmly replied the nice young man as ho lighted another fifteen center. When an Indian stole Artcmus Ward' clothes , and said he would meet him in the happy hunting grounds , Artcmus wrote : " Injins is pi/.en. " So it maybe added are morphia and opium , lied star Cough Cure contains neither. It , i.s safe , pure and ol marvelous ollicacy. A Soft Thliitf. Two old friends met on the train be tween Dallas and Fort Worth. Aftef the usual greeting one of thorn said : " ' in Dallas "i-m't-Sam Swecdlopipos living las ? " "Is he a glazier ? " "Yes. he is a pamtor and ghr/.ier. " "He is getting rich fast. " " ( letting rich fast , is he ? Uunning n monte bank. I suppose- . " "No , ho lias got a bolter thing than that. " "City official ? " "No. he belongs to n lire company , and when a lire breaks out ho runs along and wakes up the people with a stick. " " 1 don't see how there is any money to bo made in that. " "Ho wakes people up by tapping at their windows with n fctiok , nnd ho mana ges to break all Iho panes of glass within half a mile Of the Ihv , and next day he is called on to put thorn in ngaluat fii ) cents npicco. He lias got a soft thing ot it. Ho hasn't got the hocial status , but ho is making more money than it ho was nn nldcrman. " Ills Stnto I'rhlo. 'Judge"said an Arkansas man who was arrested the .other . daj for assault with intent to kill. "I'm no baby. 1 don't whine and kick , I went for this Toiines-,00 mnn with a club , and that'n a fact.
