WHITEWAY COMING TO CANADA- Object Is ta Besses NegeUafleaa With a View ta Ceefeeerallea.

St. John. Dec 11. Premier White way "a- departure yesterday for Canada excited considerable tomment. The prevailing opinion is that he will attempt to re-open confederation negotiations and seek to effect an arrangement by which the whole question can be revived after- the coming Dcmlnlon election.

It is reported in well-Informed circles that Gov. Murray's plan for an economical administration, reform In the public service and the removal of a number of useless officials, are very unpalatable to the Whiteway Government, and are largely the reason why the Premier goes on his present expedition, the party suporters believing that confederation Is preferable to honest retrenchment, which the Gov-ernot intends to introduce.

12. The recent publication of a letter from Mry Samuel Kerhahan. of the village of Geler -has greatly impressed the settlers cf this country of bad roads and long distances. His case was widely recognized as one of great hardahip. Our representative saw him, and he talked.

"I was taken sick two years ago this month and was unable to do any kind of work for fourteen months. "I had five different doctors during that time. Three of them decided my trouble was 'Floating Kidney but all agreed that I could not survive. "After I had run down to ai mere skeleton, suffering night and day, I commenced using Dodd's Kidney Pills. "When I had taken three boxes I was able to sit up and waikr a few steps.

A LITTLE ad Ono of the songs on the; programme of the St. Andrew's society concert on Tuesday evening was Jessie's Dream." or The Belief of Lucknow. The story is well known how the Scottish lass, bejesgured with many others, in the residency of LueknowJ during the Indian' mutiny, infused courage and hope into he. fallow; prisoners by that ae heard the pipes of the Highlanders of the, rescuing army. It is a romantic story, tout, like many other fondly, cherished legends, its truths has bsea1 assailed fend denied.

In our public library is a sketch of the life of Sir Henry! Have-lock. (English men of series) by that prince of war correspondents, Archibald In that volume. Forbes discreetly makes no mention whatever of the probably mythical Jessie Brown; and it is not bur purpose to go into the genuineness or otherwise of the story, but to strongly recommend Forbes volume to the people of Windsor. -r Enlisting In a dragoon regiment, to fit himself tor his work of" war correspondent in the, way of becoming acquainted with military life and detail, Forbes ba ltsd an experience as a newspaper man; with the troops on the field. wtiiebmwjgiveTg hbai terseness of language vJjrt, has not, however, stifled hi powers of "graphically describing- Scenerj or events; and this qualification" very noticablein his memoir of volume abounding in ''thrilling passages, marked with brilliancy an4 clearness.

Havelock's world-wide was won in the short space of five months, although-he had previously leem not. together unknown; and it will suffice for the present to give a mere outline of the events of that brief per-, iod. The mutiny broke out at! the end of May, 1857. Have lock was commission-' ed Brigadier General by Lord Canning on June 17th, and received instructions that, after quelling disturbances at Allahabad, he was to support- Sir Hugh Wheeler at Cawnpore and Sir Henry Lawrence at Lucknow. The march from Allahabad to Cawnpore began July 7th, with 1,905 mem barely one thousand of whom were British.

With this handful he fought the bat tle of Futtchpore on July 11th; Aong on July 15tb; Pundoo, Nuddee. Bridge, on July and Maiharajapore(three separate engagements he tenacious mutineers rallying after the first and second defeats) on July 16th. At Ma-harajapore the loyal force consisted of but 1,500 men, while the rebels numbered ,000. Haveluck and his men entered Cawnpore. July 17th, to find tfhey were too late to prevent a most atrocious butchery of the British residents.

In Cawnpore they had, if not a rest, at least a cessation from: fighting until the 21st, when they set out for Lucknow, 45 miles dis tant, through a country teeming with rebels, and with the prospect of hav ing to contest every mile of the journey. The little army of heroes fought the battles of Mungulwar, Onas and uusseerut gunge, on July srth, but bo desperate was the outlook that HvYjre lock considered it only fair to his meti to fall back on Mungulwar. and send i urgent messages for reinforcements On rellecfion. bowevr, his nature would not brook retreat, and again setting out he fought a second battle at Bussee-rutgunge, on August 5th. Once more despair laid hold of him once more 'he fell back on Mungulwar; but the dispiriting effect of this second his followers, full of fight and bope so long as their faces were Lucknow wards, compelled him to march out a third time, and a third engagement at llusseerutgunge was fought on August 12th.

But cholera, a more terrible enemy than tihe mutineers, forced him to again abandon 'his undertaking, and he had to return to Cawnpore, being obliged, however, to figiht at Bitboor, (August 16th) on his return march to that city On hid arrival there, he read in the" Gazette of the ap-1 point meat of Major General Sir James Out ram to the chief command of the Cawnpore division of the British troops. He had therefore no alternative, but to await that officer's arrival, which occurred September 15th. Out ram chivalrously declined to supersede Havelock until Lucknow Residency was reached, generously allowing the command to remain with the man who had shown so gallant a front to the mutineers, and whose followers idolised him, and Outram marched wioh Havelock as a subordinate officer. With 3,179 men they set out on September 19th Next day a second battle was fought at Busseerutgunge, the scene of three victories oyer the rebels and three! defeats by despair and cholera On Sept. 23rd, they encountered the rebels at the Alumbagh on the outskirts "of Lucknow; and from that point to the Bailey Guard Gate of the Residency; which was reached Sept.

25th. they had one prolonged fight. Fourteen bat ties, in one of which he was victorious, were, fought by Havelock: July lit when, he set out from Sept; 23rd. when he reached the Alumbagh. with a loss of 2,417 British and loyal natives.

Honors were rained on. Havelock, and his name became a household word all over the British Empire, but he had not long to enjoy them. He died, of dysentery in Lucknow on the morning' of Nov. 24th. just aa" Jhe march back! to Cawnpore and his soldiers bore with them, on the litter, in which he had died, the mortal remains of the beloved chief, who had so often! led them to victory.

Next morning they buried him in the Alumbagh enclosure, carving on the mungo tree, which still spreads its branches over the tomb Ibis first curt epitaph, the letter amy other indication of his resting place in those troublous times being deenied unwise. Such is an outline of Havelock's gallant undertakings which has narrated in-his of tbfl perils and hardships undergone by, owr countrymen, who, in the dark days of the mutiny, when the richest geovof Britain's Empire seemecL.slippi.ng from her. set out on the herculean, task of rescuing the Lucknow garrison, ted an unassuming man, whose daunt less courage was only equalled by his ian simplicity.
