An Alarming Exodu. Mon'tukai., Qukukc, May 1. The ex odus of Freuch Canadians from this province to Eastern and Western States continues to Increase marvelously, Tho number leaving tills city dally, chiefly In families with their household effects, is 150, and from Quebec tho number Is Btntcd to be much greater. Tho local press, even tho govern ment organ hero, is giving attention to the subject and calling for the Immediate application of remedies by both the Domlulon and Provincial goYf-rnnmnts.

He appeal most strongly for inodillcations In the land laws, by which homesteads can be easily obtained In accessiblu districts, as an in ducement for young men to remain. The Dominion Government got 1'arliament, at the last session, to vote large subsidies to colonization railroads in all the best sections of the Province, but it seems now that more assistance Is needed to keep the inhabitants from deserting the country.

Two Prominent Society Men of Little Rock Try Conclu sions with Pistols, In Settlement of a Midnight Quarrel at a Ball Lively Scene at tie Capital Hotel. One of the Actors in the Impromptu Affair Seriously Wounded in the Shoulder. Litti.k Rock, Auk., May 1. At two o'clock this morning two prominent so ciety gentlemen of this city, Messrs. R. Quimi and B. C. Sparks met at the Cap ital Hotel to settle a dilllculty which be gan at the ball given by the Athletic As sociation a few hours before. When the two men met only a few words passed between them, but two revolvers were produced and the principals began deliberately firing at each other. The fusillade was continued until both the pistols were empty. Mr. Quinn was shot in the shoulder early in the tight, aud this fact probably accouuts for Mr. Sparks' escape unhurt. Quinn's wound is serious. Both gentlemen are very well known aud popular throughout tho city, and their affair has created the most intense excitement. Quinn is a dry-goods merchant, and Sparks is an attache of the German Bank. The original cause of the trouble has not been made public, but the dilllculty at the ball was a public one, and every one felt that it was not ended there, hence the des perate duel at the hotel was not an entire surprise. Both of tho gentlemen are high strung, and it is a general matter of wonder that both es caped with their lives, The duel was fought very coolly, neither of the princi pals seeming to be at all excited, and at its end Mr. Quiun's friends secured medical attendance promptly. It is not believed that the injuries will prove fatal, although he may lose his arm. The theory advanced by a well-posted gentleman to your correspondent is that a lady's name is behind the altercation, although this is denied. Society in Little Rock has not had such an enticing tit-bit of scandal for years. An Anti-Arthur Chairman. Lorisvn.LE, Ky., May 1.
