It was suppored that f th» rector should read the collects for ti. King and Royal family he would be « n the sacred deak. But he went ov bo dly te the end, omitting ne porticen of t'e cervice, and like Daniel “prayed as he did afore time. That, says the present

Bishop of New York in a sermon preach- ed recentiy in Quebec, wae good stuff to make a Bishop of, and in due time his

Sovereign found it out.”

On the closing of the churches the clerg? ef: the city, but Dr. Inglis remain- ed niin)-ting to the sick,baptizing children,

and burying the dead, and refased to yie! ld up the possession of the buildings, Dur- ing this period he was in utmost danger: Event a'ly his position became intenable and in 1783 he applied to be admitted on

the Society’s list in Nova Scotia. The reque2t was acceded to, so he resigned the

rector-i.ip of one of the best preferments in the Uaited States, on account of his loya!:y, and with property confiscated he came t» Halifax to begin life over again. Two rears afterwards he was recalled to Engl<n ' and did not return uatil he had heen ce nsecrated the first Colonial Bishop

‘of the English Church.

The condition of affairs in the new Dicce'« when the peer arrived was brietly as follows: In Nova Scotia proper there w re twelve missionaries at work. In * ew Brunswick there were six, in Cape Breton one, in P. E. Island one, in Eng- land tree and in Quebec eight. His firet tour was made in N.S. and N. B. in 1789 durirg vhich he travelled 700 miies and

confirm 41525 persons. On his return to au.’ * be wrote tothe S, P, G, that he had focud all the missionaries properly emplovedin iheir respective stations, but that '« had proposed some changes in the dispos::ioa of the missions which could proba’ lv be brought about the eneuing year. ‘The kind treatment which the Bi-hop met everywhere and the good dis-

T positicer both of the clergy and laity to com p'y with is exhortatiovs, showed how agrecalle the appoiutment of a Bishop

hau teen, “By judicious conduct and gresi ‘eeidaas he awoke the people from that torpid atate in which he foun! them respecting religious matters,

ai a the making of proper external provi- s cas for the due administrationof the pub lic wer-hip. Searcely was therea church finis} ed throughout the Province when he

atrive, but soon churches began to rise in man” places.

In 1729 the Bishop paid his first visit to P. E.! and then proceeced to Quebec ia His M jesty’s frigate Dido. Under a

The Same... Old Sarsaparilia.

That’s Ayer’s. The same old sarsaparilla as it was made and solid by Dr. J. C. Ayer 50 years ago. In tue laboratory it is different. There modern appli- ances lend speed to skill and experience. But the sarsapa- rilla is the same old sarsaparilla that made the record—50 years of cures. Why don’t we better it? Well, we’re much in the condition of the Bishop and the raspberry : “Doubtless, ’’ he said, “‘God might have made a better berry. But doubtless, also, He never did.” Why don’t we better the sarsaparilla? We can’t. We are using the same old plant that cured the Indians and the Spaniards. Jt

been bettered. And since we make sarsaparilla com- pound out of sarsaparilla plant, we see no way of improvement. Of course, if we were making secret chemical compound we might.... But we’re not. We’re making the same old sar- saparilla to cure the same old diseases. You can tell it’s the same old sarsaparilla be- cause it works the same old cures. It’s the sovereign blood purifier, and—it’s Ayers.

to the episcopate. England the

Bisnop of Quebee met him and greeted him with a wel!-bestowed kiss on either cheek, declaring that it was high time he should come to keep his people in order, Atthistime there were only 6 clergymen in the Lower Province, including the three Frenchmer,and in the remainder of the ceutury only one was added to the Society’s Jist, Daring the next 12 years only two other missions wefé opened, and this on account of the pre-

ponucrance of the Romana Cathulic elements. The pro- portios of inbabitents in 1807, was

given as 225,000 Roman Catholics and 25,000 of all other religions.

At this period the Society was privileged to secure tue services of one who has done perhaps as much as any one to plant and build up the church in Canada, the Rev. and Hon. Chas. Jas. Stewart. On his arrival at St. Armand, (his first mission) the landlord of the inn endeavoured to dis- suade him from holding service, inform- ing him that not long before a preacher had cometo settle there but after remaining some time he had found the people so wicked and abandoned that he had Nett tin

despair: Then said the miesionery this is the very place for me; here I aim needed and here by God’s grace I will remain. For a few Sundays he officiated at the inn, than in a school room, and whenin Jan. 7th 1809 a new church was opened in the eastern part of his mission he had ® congregation of 1000 people and 44 communicants, Two | years later he erected another church in the western end of the district and he raised funds among his friends to assist in build- ing 24 churches in the poorer settlements of Canada. Dr. Stewart lived on $1,00 a day, and lim'ted his personal expenses to £250 a year in orderthat he might devote the remaind:> <f his income £400. to pub- lic and priv: ‘ beneficial purposes. On th- death of Bis! cp Mountain, Dr, Stewart was chosen his successor, His alt-rod position and cir-umstances made no #1- teration in his simple habits aud piety. For 10 years he bore the burden of his vast diocese doing his utmozt to supply its neede. In ]836 being worn out by incess— ant labours, he obtained the assistance of a coadjutor, Dr. George Jehoshaphat Mountain continued to administer the Diocese, but retained the title of * Bishop of Montreal ” until the formation of a see of that name, when he became nominally, what in reality he had been for 13 years Bishop of Quebec.

The formation of Upper Canada into a separate ‘see (Toronto) in 1839 greatiy though it relieved the Bishop, stil) left him a Diocese a? large as France. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHURCH INN.

The N. W. Territories were assigned by Chas. ij in 1670 to the Hudson Bay Co. and were surrendered by them to the crown in 1870. When Governor Semple was sent out from England in 1815 he reported “over the whole extento the H. B. T. no such building as a church existing. The H.C, Co. had not been ent'rely unmindful of their religous duties; the chief factor at each post being required to readthe Church Servide to their employees every Sunday. In 1820 they sent out the Rsv. 1. West as Chaplain tothe Red River Settlement, now the city of Winnipeg, Here he soon built achurch and a school. He wrote that “the Indians were suck al ost to the lowest state of degradatioa to which human beings cou'd be “brought. He opened a school for Indian boys, and some of them made great progress in learning. During the next 5 years two other priests arrived and other churches were built. The schoo! continued to grow and flourish. In 1825 the Governor brought 2 boys, sons of two chiefs of Indians on the banks of the Columbia, the other side of tne Rocky Mouctains, to the mission school. Three years afterwards they begged to be allowed to revisit their homes, and to hie great joy they returned ina few months bringing with them 5 others of d:fferent tribes and speaking dialec.s so unli e that their only interconrse was by signs. These boys had tried to teach their friends such truths as they themselves had learned, and were listened to with marked attention.

In 1849 a mission was commenced at Cumberland among the Crees. A native catechist,(the first Indisn boy who had entered the school) was appointed to this work. He had grown upa godly, intelli- geat and weil educated man end 10 years afterwards, he was orained the Ist native is lecgyms 0; his +on, a young man of great-

HERO AND MAN.

Btortes That Are Told of the Grest Nuke of Wellington,

The worlds of reminiscence and history agree that there was something whout tre Duke of Wellington which rendered em) ty pretense quite impossible in his company He was absolutely genuine, a man with- out vanity or desire of display. He was invariably courteous to women, but that cid not prevent him from staving off such as were bores. One of them gushingly asked him to give heran account of the battle of Waterloo.

‘‘Oh,”’ said he, ‘‘it’s very easily done! We pommeled them, they pommeled us, and I suppose we pommeled the hardest. So we gained the day.”’

Yet he was a great stickler for punctilio in what seemed to him the proper places, When the regiment of his son, Lord Douro, was quartered at Dover, the duke was staying at Walmer castle, and the officers rode over and left their cards as a matter of form. Soon after came an invitation from the Duke of Wellington inviting all the officers to dine, but ignoring his own son. When Lord Douro asked for an ex- ’ planation, the duke gave it thus, with great good humor:

‘IT make Those

no distinction in the service. gentlemen had paid me the com- pliment of a visit, and I invited them to dinner. You were not among them. So I omitted you in the invitation.”’

Thus hecould always bold bisown with an imperturbability which might well have served him on the field of battle, but of all stories about him there is one which best proves his almost quixotic honesty. At one time he bought a farm lying near his estate, and therefore yery valuable to him. When the purchase was concluded, his steward congratulated him on having got sucha bargain, for, as he explained, the owner was in difficulties and had been forced to part with the land,

“What do you mean by a bargain?” asked the duke.

“It was valued at £1,100,’ said the steward, ‘‘and we got it for £800.”’

‘In that case,’’ said the duke, ‘‘you will be kind enough to carry the extra £300 to the late owner and never to talk to me of cheap land again.’’— Youth’s Companion.
