Princess Louise has donated a picture of her own painting to the Dominion Gallery as a memento of her residence in Canada. The picture is sft in length, and is at pre sent on exhibition in Boston. The citizens of Montreal were greatly excited on September 17th by the failure of the Exchange Bank of that city. Since May the Bank has been in difficulty from a steady drain on its resources. The collapse would have oc curred early in the month mentioned but for the forbearance of the Provincial and Dominion Governments, who had large deposits therein. - . James A. Redfern, a dashing swell, who came out to America from England some seven years ago, and whose father is well known in English racing circles, and who is in the Prince of Wales's set, so said, has got into trouble. Ho was arrested in Portland, Oregon, on September 18th, charged with bigamy in eloping from Toronto, Canada, with Miss Maggie Spiatt, daughter of an English commission mer chant thero, he having a wife. Beforo Red fern met Miss Spratt, he had married the handsome daughter of Chandler J. \N ells, of Buffalo, New York, whom ho left in Toronto. Redfern had a good deal of money when he arrived in tho United States, as it is repre-' sented he lost §100,000 in the pork-packing business in Buffalo. He will be returned to Canada as soon as the extradition papers arrive.

Riot in Canton.

A despatch received at London, Sept 11, from Hong Kong, states a Chinese mob at Canton had burned the houses of several opium merchants and their wharves, and caused great consternation among the foreign residents, most of whom sought refuge on board tho vessels in the river. Violence was offered to persons, but a force of Chinese troops was called out, winch quickly dispersed the rioters. Several gun boats were sent to Canton from Hong Kong to afford protection to foreign merchants. The riot was caused by a number of 1 ortu guese sailors killing a Chinaman in an affray. The rioting caused a great sensa tion in all circles, and at one time a collision between the French and Chinese was feared. During its continuance the mob threw the contents of the buildings attacked upon the wharves, and looted them. The riot lasted several hours, and was only finally quelled by tho arrival of the Chinese troops.

South & Central America, Mexico, and the West Indies.

Yellow fever had a deadly prevalence in Guaymas and Mazatlan ; the mortality had been general up to September 18th. Many Americans had perished, and among those swept away was an entire opera company. Tho Mexican authorities call tho fever «' tonto," but experts say the opidemic has the true "yellow jack" typo. San Francisco has quarantined against it. Advices from Hayti, Soptember 18, say the Government is slowly regaining its ascendancy, although the fighting of the insurgents is of a desperate character. The Government of tho United States of Columbia is at so lowa financial credit that it has had to pass over the De Lesseps half a-million in drafts to tho National Bank, paying it so much for its endorsement. It is reported from Huanco, Peru, Sop tember 18, that 3,000 Monteneros who had collected near Tzuchaca for the purpose of sacking that city wero attacked by a small body of men belonging to the pacific party, and defeated after an hour's fighting Two hundred of the Monteneros were killed.

Frightful Railway Accident.

A terrible railway accident occurred at Steglitz on Sunday night, September 2, which quite absorbs tho entire interest of the place, all the victims being residents of this city. Steglitz is a favourite place of resort of Berliners, and lies on the Potsdam and Magdeburg Railway, three miles to the south-west. The accident, which may be called a massacre, stands probably unique In the annals of railway disasters. Tne day being Sunday, and the Sedan anniversary, the place was crowded with excursionists to the Schueteenfast and other festivities in honour of tho day. By 10 p.m. a crowd of about 500 persons failed the platform of the railway station at Steglitz, waiting for the return train. When tho latter arrived, after some delay, the barriers still remained closed to await tho passing of the Cologne night express. Suddenly, liowever, the pressure of the im patient crowd forced the barriers aside, and despite tho efforts of tho railway officials, hundreds of persons rushed across the down line to entor the cars. At that moment tho express came tearing along, and although the driver, on seeing tho danger signals dis played atthelast moment applied tho brakes, the train dashed right through the mas**? of people covering the lino, and annihilated everything in its way. One terriblo cry of anguish arose even above the thunder of the train, and all was over. Tho details of this terriblo scene, lasting only a fow seconds, as narrated by eye-witnesses, are almost too harrowing for repetition. Forty persons, of whom seventeen wero men, eighteen women, and five children, wero instantly killed, and about twenty-fivo wonnded. All the victims belong to the artisan and labouring classes. For a distance of 100 yards tho lino was covered with bodies, all shockingly muti lated, and human fragments. Of one family of five persons only one boy escaped. The killed include four married couples, five members of the Shooters' Company, with the flagbearer and three artillery corporals. One of the latter had both legs and his heavy sabre cut through as with a knife. One girl had nearly reached the local train when the draught caused by the express threw hor under the locomotive. One woman had both legs out off, and on being carried into the waiting-room gave birth to a dead child and expired. Another woman and a sailor in tho Imperial navy were completely decapitated, and no vestiges of the heads have been found. A child had one hand cut off, and one body was entirely divested of cloth ing." The driver of the express train had to be relieved,! from his duties, being unable to proceed after witnessing the scene of carnage. His locomotive was covered with pieces of flesh, bones, rogs, and drenched with blood. The lino remained blocked for hours, while detachments of firemen and soldiers gathered the remains of the victims by torchlight. An official inquiry into the case of this dreadful disaster is taking place.

Bad Weather In England.

The past week has been prolific of disaster on land and sea, at home and abroad. A fierce storm of blinding wind and rain raged Incessantly round the English coast from Friday, August 31, to Tuesday morning, September 4. Many lives were lost, wreck- were frequent, and the destruction to property on land and eea was immense. The crops have sustained serious damage, and in some places near the shore fanners havo had their corn, whether stacked or not, carried away over the cliffs and out to sea. In others it is irretrievably beaten down and spoilt, whilst hops lie in thick and tangled masses upon the sodden earth. In the South of Ireland the hay and corn crops have been totally destroyed, and the dis tress is so great that it is feared thero may be an immdiate renewal (of the agitation against payment of rent.

The Black Flags Defeated by the French Forces.

Hongkong, September 14.—A battle has taken place between the French and the Black Flags, lasting eight hours The en eap-ement took place between Ha Noi and loStey, near the Red River. The French forces are reported as having lost two offices and fifty men. Tbo loss of the Black Flags is estimated at between 500 and 600. Ha Noi is the town where tho French have been holding a garrison since the pre vious engagement at Soutay awaiting re-en forcements. It is probable, judging from tho above dispatch, that the Black Flags whose headquarters are at Bacnimh, to the north-east of Ha Noi, determined to re capture Sontay from the French, who have kept gunboats there the last fortnight, and while en route from Baonimph, across the delta, were met by the French from Ha Noi to intercept them, the above battle being the result.

FRENCH ACCOUNTS. <

London, September 14.—Trench accounts of the battle with the Black Flags state that Saturday, September. Ist, the French forces from Ha Noi advanced to within twelve miles of Sontay, where the enemy was found in casemates made of sod, upon which the fire of the French had no effect. After three days' hard fighting the French troops, aided by a heavy fire from the fleet under Admiral Douet, carried the enemy s works at tho point of the bayonet, capturing two towns and two Black Flag standards. The Erench loss is two officers and fourteen men killed and three officers and forty men wounded. After the victory Admiral Douet withdrew his fleet to Ha Noi to await re-en forcements, leaving 300 men to hojd the captured towns.

ADDITIONAL DBTAIIfI,

toirooN, September 15.—A Hongkong | dWtch gives detail- of the battle between _____________________________________________

the French and the Black Flags on the Ist inst. The French, the dispatch says, took thirty prisoners, who were beheaded on the 14th. Although the movementof the French troops was a success, yet tho result shows that very large reinforcements will be needed to clear Tonquin of the Black Flags, as an earthwork of no great strength kept the French, supported by the gunboats, three days at Bay. Sixty men of an avail able force of 1,500 means a large French loss, while 500 Black Flags killed are as nothing. Operations have again been suspenned. Another despath says that the arms cap tured from the Black Flags in the engage ment are reported to bear the Chinese arsenal mark. The despatch further states that the Chinese press has adopted a bel ligerent tone towards the French and de olares that the Hue treaty is contrary to in ternational law.

SUPREME COURT.-Civil Sessions.

This Day.

[Beforo Ills Honor Mr Justico Gillies.] Thomas Grice and John Benn v. Ani Watu, Hori Puao, Tava te Waata, Paul, and Tamihana, for possession of land and mesne profits.—Mr E. Hesketh for the plaintiffs, and Messrs C. A. DeLautour and John Hay for the defendants.—The action is brought to secure the ejectment of cer tain natives from the Pukekura block, near Cambridgo, and to obtain possession of it. The plaintiffs claim to bo lessees of the block undor a Crown grant issued to ten natives who leased to them; thoy say further that tho lease is in full force, and that tho defendants, somo of whom aro grantees, have "thought fit to return to the land andto squat upon it, refusing: to go off. Some twelve months ago Mr Walker, vyho holds power of attomeyjfrom tho plaintiffs, pulled down the wharcs of tho alleged^ in truders, and interfered with their cultiva tions, whereupon he was prosecuted and committed to trial for forcible entry, on the ground that he ought to have taken the steps that are now being^pursued, instead of taking tho law .into his {own hands.— After tho opening of the caso this morning, Mr de Lantour set out with tho contention that as the first lease had been signed by only nine out of ten of the granters, it did not appear that it was signed by a majority in valuo of tho ownors, and that, consequently, it was not lawful.—Mr Hesketh replied that the leasp by the nine was actually mado with tho consent of tho tenth, and that it was only owing to his absenco that he signed after wards on a separate deed. This, ho con tended, was quite valid and regular.—His Honor upheld Mr Hesketh's contention.— Mr DeLautour then pointed to tho fact that by the 58th section of the Native Land Act of 1865 a lease is not valid until the neces sary duty has been paid and the receipt thereof endorsed upon it, nnd ho shewed that in respect to this deed the duty had not been paid at the time of the cause of action, urguing that therefore the ease was of no force.— Mr Hesketh answered that the 58th section only applied to the first duty, and that when it was paid the instrument had life given to it, and that there was no provision in the statute that if default was made with the subsequent annual payments the case should cease to be valid, but that on payment of that duty again it shall again have life.—His Honor endorsed Mr Hesketh's contention.— There were the two grounds oh vyhich it was proposed to move for a nonßuit.—Mr De Lautour then proceeded to adduce evi dence to show that by certain orders and certificates of tho Native Lands Court that the Crown had no founda tion for issuing a Crown grant in the matter, so as to afford ground for an application not to give effect to the Crown grant.—Mr Hammond, Registrar of the Native Land Court, was the first witness called, add upon his examination a diseus cussion ensued. Mr Hammond deposed that a certificate was issued on the 9th No. vember, 18C8, and he was about to show that there was another certificate, and that the Crown grant, was issued upon this second certificate, when Mr DeLautour con tended it ought to have been issued upon the first certificate, and that there was no power in the Native Land Court to order a second certificate to issue so as to cancel the first one. Thorefore, as the Crown issued a second certificate while the first was still remaining in full force, the grant was invalid.—Mr Hesketh objected to this proposed evidence, on the ground that no evidence could bo adduced, cal ling in question the validity of the action of the Crown by reason of any alleged defects, unless the Crown was either actually or nominally plainiff in the proceedings.—His Honor confirmed this ob jection, and therefore excluded the dobate able evidence —Mr DeLautour then called evidence to show that the defendants did not receive any rent after 1875, and that therefore, they re-entered into possession in 1878 in order to determine the lease. Ani Wata "and Haratai Tamihana gavo testi mony to this effect. ' _ . (Left Bitting.) ,___^-,
