Meeting of Presbytery.

The Presbytery of P. E. Island met in Or- well, Belfast, on the 23rd ult., for the purpose of considering whether or not the conregations of Belfast and Orwell Head could be so recon- structed as to make the latter self-sustaininge After hearing a large number of delegates from the two congregations,it was unanimous- ly agreed to allow them, in the meantime, to remain as at present constructed,

Che Presbytery then resumed consideration of the petition from Orwell Head congrega- tion, asking for moderation in a call, and_ tor a supplement from the augmentation fund, when, on motion, it was unanimously agreed to grant the moderation, and appointed Rev. R. McLean to moderate in said call, at such a time as may be agreed upon by him and the session. It was further agreed to apply to the Augmentation committee for a grant of $200 to this congregation in case of the settle- ment of a minister during the present year, on condition that they raise $500, and give the minister the free use of the manse.

The following appointments were then made: Rev, A. 8 Stewart to preach in Brook- field on 2nd Sabbath in March. Rev. M. Me Leod to preach in Belfast on last Sabbath in February, at Orwell Head on Ist Sabbath in March, and alternately in these two congre- gations until next meeting of Presbytery. Rev. R. McLean was appointed to preach in Orwell Head Chureh at 3 o'clock cn 2nd Sab- bath in March, and Rev. John Hutchison, M. A., to preach in St. John’s Church, Belfast, on Ist Sabbath of March.

i A Horrible Affair.

Word was received here last Monday, by Owen Kelly, of a brutal affair which oc- curred near Grand Falls, the Wednesday before (Feb. 16th), and by which his sen- in-law, Jas. F. Blake, and his nephew, Henry Kelly, of Quebec, were so badly beaten that the latter died of his injuries on the following Saturday. They were engaged in peddling dry goods and clothing and whilst ina French house on the op- posite side of the river from Grand Falls Village, were attacked and beaten. A cor- respondent thus describes the affair :-- ‘They were showing some goods when a crowd of Frenchmen came in, all of whom were more or less intoxicated ; one of them walked up to Blake and called him hard names, and struck him in the face and breast ; Kelly ran to his assistance, but was caught by some of the others; he got up against the wall and managed to keep his feet. After the exchaitge of a few blows, Blake and Kelly both managed to get out doors, where some of the party followed them, and fired four shots after them ; happily none of them were struck by the shots. They got away, and found the Deputy Sheriff, who went back with them and got their hats and goods. They applied to the authorities, but no one would issue a warrant for the arrest of the desperadoes in the face of the coming elections. Medical aid was looked for, but could not be obtain- ed short of Andover.”

We have not heard of any arrests having yet been made. If the particulars are correct as stated above, and we can see no reason to doubt them, the authorit es in that locality must be more than negligent in their duty. When human life is involv- ed some effort should be made to reach and punish the guilty. — Woodstock Press.

The Domestic Monthly for Mareh, ISS7.

We wonder if all our lady readers know that the charming Domestic Monthly, which is only $1.50 a year, gives $1.00 worth of Domestic Patterns to every subscriber. This is a thing worth knowing by all who make their own or their children’s gowns. The March number of the Domestic*Monthly is a capital number. Its contents ace selected to meet a great variety of tastes, and one who cannot find amusement in some of its illustrated articles, stories, poems, etc., must be hard to please.

The Domestic Monthly is published at 853 Broadway, New York, at $1.50 a year, postpaid, with $1.00 worth of patterns to every subscriber. For $2.00 the magazine, the patterns and two new books, ‘*Needle- work” and “Knitting and Crotchet,’’ both with designs and illustrations, are sent.

Bigamy in Self-Defence.

Justice Hawkins, afew days ago decided that bigamy is no crime when committed in self-defence. A poor woman who had married a habitual criminal when she was 17, was deserted by him after her first baby was born. He had never made any provision for her, and in the intervals when he was not in prison he used to come back to her whenever she got a situation and compel her to keep him. The

General Boulanger.

(Boston Herald.)

it is worthy of notice that, although we live in an age of democratic equality, the great events of the world are ordinarily brought about,directly or indirectly, through the instrumentality of single indivicuals. At the present time there is not a little danger that a war may break out between France and Germany. ‘This sad mishap may not occur ; at least, it may be postpon- ed for months, or even years; and yet, it need surprise nv one if the armes of both countries should be seen hurrying toward their respective frontiers before the first of June. Primarily, such a contest would be the result of a widespread and deep-rooted sentiment of hatred and desire for revenge on the one side, and an equally extensive and generally entertained conviction on the other that, as a war must be fought even tually, it is better that it be fought out now than at some later and less favorable period. But guiding, and, consciously or unconsciously, provoking, this contest wre two individuals, in the absence of whom, on either side, it is not at all probable that war-like thoughts would be entertained, or warlike proceedings entered upon.

So far as cutward manifestations are cou- cerned—and these are all the means that one has of judging of current diplomatic events—-if a war is declared, it will be in consequence of the shrewd but unserupu- lous policy of Prince Bismarck. It is at the instigation of the German chaacellor that reports are telegraphed all over the world that the French are rapidly prepar ing far war. The information concerning the purchase of lumber for the duilding of barracks upon the frontier, the reports con- cerning the purchases of horses and grain and hay in foreign countries on French ac- count, all emanate from German sources, and are, apparently, parts of a deeply laid scheme intended to convince the outer world that France is turning its energies to the work of preparing to suddenly at- tack its eastern neighbor.

Prince Bismarck’s address in the Reich- stag bearing upon this question was indefi- nite and general in its character; but the semi-ofticial German newspapers have not considered it necessary to maintain this cautious attitude. They have singled out their man. It is General Boulanger, the war minister of France, who is responsible for stirring up the military fever in France, and, in German opinion, the only way in which peace can be assured is the displace- ment of Gen. Boulanger, and the substitu- tion for him of some less ambitious and less restless person.

Now if Gen. Boulanger were much less popular with the French people than he is, dictation of this kind, coming from what is considered a hostile source, would make him a universal favorite. No proud-spirit- ed people would tolerate such foreign inter- ference. They would be, of necessity, irri- tated by it, and it seems not improbable that it was in the hope of irritating them this counsel was given. If Gen. Boulanger had retired from the ministry six months ago, the provocation might have been avoided; but there he is, and the various incidents in his public career can be worked up so as to bear out the theory that he is a first-class military adventurer, who would not hesitate to plunge his country into war if he thought that, in consequence of it, great personal gain would result to himself.

He has gained his astonishing personal ascendency, which is, however, more Paris- ian than French, not by great and decisive acts, but by attractive personal character- istics. Heis saidto be amiable, intelli- gent and patriotic, with a great liking for stir and gayety, movement and life. He is ready and courageous, with an appear- ance of kindliness. But he may be all this, and not have the military genius of a Napoleon. Indeed, some of the military men who have won popularity in times of peace have proved lamentably deficient when their skill and training have been put to the test of war.

The rank and file of the French army and the subordinate officers are said to be- lieve in Gen. Boulanger with the same ; blind confidence that the soldiers of the army of the Potomac, in the early days of our war, trusted in Gen. McClellan. That

is to say, there is something attractive in the personality of the man which redgegns, in the uncritical eyes of the multitude, a \large number of grave administrative de- fects. So far as his personal ascendency is |concerned, nothing could have served his ‘turn better than German denunciation, and thus, should a war shortly break ou: in | which republican France becomes involy ed, it will be due almost as much to persona! |causes as those struggles carried on in | Europe eighty years or more ago, which had for their direct object the overthrow

had been imprisoned one month awaiting trial. He felt that he should be wanting in humanity if he” were to order her to be im- prisoned for one single hour beyond that time, and the sentence was that she be imprisoned for half an hour. The annonncement was re- ceived with applause, Bigamy, therefore, is henceforth to be regarded as justifiable as a means of self-protection. But would it not be better toamend the law of divorce.—Pad/ Mall Gazetie. Special Notices.
