O1TawA, Dee. 21.—The mission of Mr. For- syih, Superintendent of the Money-Order De- partment, to Washington, Is said to be for the purpose of studying the money-order system sdopted in the oeighboring Republic. A few weeks ago, gentlemen from Washington were bere on a similar service. The Government intends to reduce the salaries of Clvil-Service officials by 10 per cent. A deputation, consisting of Col. Camberlana, Mr. Barlow Cumberland of the Northern Rail- way, the Mayor of Collingwood, and several members of Parliament, waited upon the Minis- ter of Public Works, and urzca the necessity of *deepening Collingwood Harbor by four fect,— making sixteen feet 1 all,—and of fmprove- ments in the breakwater lately constructed. It was explained that these imorovements were pecessary to meet the increased volume of trade passing thronzh Collingwood for Lake soperior and Western districts. The Minister of Public Works promised to give the matter his earliest consideration. A telegram from Washington says that Dr. TYoung, who was formerly Chief of the Bureau of Statistics at Washington, has accepted a prominent position in the Dominfon Statistical Bureau. Special Dispateh fo The Trivune. MoNTREAL, Uec. 2L—Employment for tae poor this winter will be provided in the shepe of bresking Macadoin stone for the streets, if tne Road Committee obtain what they are ask- jng for, namely: an advance of §30,000 from thelr next year's appropriations for the purchase of stont. ) The Temporalities Board of the Presbyterian Clioreh in Canads, of which the Rev. Dr. Jen- Lins is Presivent, was some time ago legally asssiled,—in the interest ot the remuants of coagregation, which did oot fall in with the union i which the present Presbyterian Church in Cauada had its origin,—by tlie Rev. Rovert Dobie, at whose instance an Injunction was laig on a certain funa of tie former Presby- terian Church of Canads in conuection with e Chureh of Scotland, which bad passed into the hands of the Temporalitics Board of the new Church, upon which the ministers of the oid Church bad claims in part paymengof their salaries. The ministers who did n&f fall in with the union were, by the agrecment thea come to, secured ther share. of this fund for life; but thesc held that the great body of the Church had by the union ceased to have any claims upon it, and claimed he whole for themselves, and took suit to ob- tain the same. The cace reached the Court of Appeals, and has there been dismissed, ou the ground that the security for costs given by Mr. Dabie was not furnisbed in the’ proper manner gccording to law. This brings the whole matter 10 a vonclusion, and further proceedings would Lave to commence de noto. * special Dispaich to The Tribune. Toroxto, Dec. 21.—Mr. E. B.

Webster thinks, however, that wis:fegling will pass aw: under thie soorhiar?diMnence of tine, and that next sea- son Courtney may take part iv several regattos, and probabiy, later on, in & mateh or two, if he c2n et a worthy opponent. There is no chance «of Courtney and lianlan comiug tozether again, —at least not ‘till late in the season. Mr. Webstersaid there wasa sort of tacit understand- inz that Courtuey was to receive a couple of 1nousand dollars for rowing at Montreal; butno papers were signed, and the money was not paid. He s:ates that the coming aspirauts for the cozmpionstip are G. W. Lee, of Newark, now amateur caampion. and M. F. Davis, of Portland. " Taelatter ne regards as a wounderful sculler. Lee will not challenge Hanlan right of, but will first try some sccond-ragk professionals. “For “several tvecks past, turkeys alive by thousands, and turkeye dead by tons, have been £nipped to Great Britain aud the United States Tom polnis along the Grand.Jruniz Railway,, from Sarpia to Brockville, and along the Great Western from Windsor to Torunto, shippers from points between Toronto and Montrest bave commenced sending consignments of dressed pouitry to the latter place, waich have 1ouna ready sale.

Special Dispatch to The Trivune. XNew Yorg, Dec. 2.—The " position assumed by the sclf-constituted Clearing-1ouse Commit- 1ee which visited Washington, and after 2 con- {erence with Secretary Sherman aunounced that, the remonetized silver dollar would only be re- i oeived on deposit for return in kind, scets like- 1y to be overturned by the action of the baoks temselves.

Their action was simply the result 9f prejudice, and nad no reasonable basis for it. It all the new dollars which have been coined, ¢r likely 1o be coined Guring Sccretary Sher- man's administration, were thrown into New York at once, they would bardly be sufficient {oamount to emvarrass the banks.” A promivent Wall street broker savs the Clearing-House is ashamed of its action, and most of the banks will take legal-tender silver ‘Withont rezard 1o their notices to depositors. President Thompson, of the Chase National a0d Clearing-House Bank, Was found in com- Pany with President Neal, of the Harvey Coun- 1y Bank, Kansas, and asked if his bank wonld take silver deposits unconditionally.

My heaa and face bewng covered with sores, Iconld mot rest with the barning heat and itching of the partsaffected, and was confined tomy house for weeks at a time. Ay disease has been called Eczema, of 2 most aggravated trpe, by many obysicians. but I douut if ever fully understood by any of them, 1t was more likea combination of several skin humors. I have spent muck money seeking o cure, and in 1867 1 went to Europe, and consulted some of the best phvsicians fa London. 1 reccived temporary relicf only. for in the spring it would break out again asbad asever. When I came back to Boston, 1 was told by many friends that Dr. — (whose reputation_for the cure of those diseases was of the highest orcer) conld cure me. 1 waited on the Doctor; lie prescribed for me. foliowed his advice for aix months, and I can <afely say, without any improvement. 1 tried other pby- sicinng, and among them Dr. ——, of East Boston,- and Dr. —, of city proper, but all to no purpose. They did me uo g00a; their remedics were so inef- fectual that at no time did I feel that a ciire would result from them. 1 have swalluwed five hundred arsenic pills, 5-20 grain, and taken bottlc after bottle of internal rem- cdies, besideall the external applications I have used, but the effect was the same. 1 became satis- fied that I could not be cured, buat. might be xept from setting worse. . .
