Howse in Committee of Supply.
On the Land Office appropriation, —
Hom Mr. Ferguson explained the nature of the work now being done in that de- parimermt of the public service, and ex- plained that there was more work now on hand than could be attended to for some time tocome. He submitted figures from the departmental returns for the years 1873, 1878 and 1880, and contrasted them with those of other and more recent years, showing the increase in receipts, etc. He also explained the nature of the work per- formed by himself as Commissioner since his appeintment— work which he thought had been performed with satisfaction to all concerfied aad in the best interests of the people in general.
Mr. Farquharson expressed his pleasure at or ce of the hon. member, and remar fhat he had not changed his opiniog as to the striking out of the item.
Mr, Sutherland moved that the $1300 salary of the Commissioner be struck out.
Hon] Mr. Sullivan explained that the salary fof the Commissioner was fixed by stat ute
Mr. Sutherland said he thought the Gov- |
ernment should change the statute.
Hon, Mr. Sullivan remarked that the hon. member should introduce a bill ab- olishing the office of Commissioner. He thought the present proceedings childish.
Mr*Sutherland’s amendment was then put and lost, and the original resolution carrie
Thelitems af $1200 salary of Provincial
Auditér and Clerk of the Executive Coun-,
cil, and $200 for printing and stationery, were ten submitted.
Mr. Sutherland thought that the offices of Provincial Auditor and Assistant Pro- vincial Secretary should be amalgamated, and moved in amendment that the $1200 be struck out and $1000 substituted.
How, Mr. Sullivan took exception to the reduction. He explained that the Auditor already had more work to perform than he could attend to; indeed, he thought he should have an assistant. His work kept him in his ottice from ten o’clock in the! morning, until six o'clock in the evening, | and pow while the House was in session | sion he was obliged ta work day) and night. To his mind the work of the Auditor was never so well per- | formed as it has been since the appointment of Mr. DeBlois, who was attending to the. work for $1200 which the Davies Govern- |
mentueid: $2500 to have performed. | He thought that the Leader of the Opposi- | tions should look more closely after the inexperienced members of his party, and | not allow them to be making motions for) reducing the salaries of officials, the nature | of whose duties they knew nothing at all} about.
Mr. Farquharson moved that $200 be de- ducted from the salary of the Secretary of Public Works. The motion was supported | by Mr. Sutherland, Mr. Bell, Mr. J. R. | McLean and Hon. Mr. Yeo; and opposed | by Hon, Mr. Bentley, Hon. Mr. Sullivan, | Hon. Mr. Ferguson, Hon. Mr. McLeod, | and others, who agreed in saying that there | was not a more eflicient or faithful officer than Mr. Morrison in the public service.

John Eoche, TU. 8S. N,
The Boston Pilot of the 6th inst., gives the following particulars concerning the lamented Mr. John Roche, (son of Edward Roche, |. y., of this city,) whose lamented death was announced a few days ago :—
“The Vandalia had a large amount of money on board, and it is supposed, in the absence of i details of the calamity, that Captain Shov.maker, Paymaster Arms, and Pay Clerk Roche, with the ship's yeoman, re- mained to guard or remove the treasure when they met their death. John Roche was born in Queen’s County, Ireland, about forty-seven yearsago. He was the eldest son of Edward Roche, Esq., Provincial Librarian, of Charlottetown, P. E. IL. and brother of James Jeffrey Roche, of the Pilot editorial staff. From his earliest boyhood he was distinguished for his mental and physical endowments, In his sixteenth year he

va- riety. The skating was fair, the ice being ‘somewhat soft towards the close. The ‘band discoursed sweet music, which added greatly to the enjoyment of the evening. | There are several well-furnished stores and handsome dwellings 1n this interesting! town, also 4 churches, a Masonic Lodge, 4 hotels, 3 drug stores, a post office, resi- ident clergymen, 3 medical men, 1 dentist, | 20 lawyer, American consular agent, high | sheriff of the county, 1 representative to ithe House of Commons and 2 members to jthe Local House. A fine station house ‘stands on the high landin rear of the vil- lage, where the railroad line terminates, which commands a grand view of the sur- rounding country for miles, where agricul- ture is successfully prosecuted. Extensive business in fishing is carried on along the shores, and large shipments are made from this port every spring and fall. The late closing and early opening of navigation here, with the facilities offered by our Rail- way, from one end of the Island to the other, makes Souris the natural outlet for |all the surplus produce of land and water, juntilthe Subway is opened across the ‘Strait; and numbers of our business men lare not slow in availing themselves of the advantages thus placed at their disposal, The visitor to Souriy cannot fail to ob- serve the ruddy health munifested in the countenances of the inhabitants, as they walk along the streets, which is attributed wafted from the bcsom of the magnificent body of water rolling at their feet, and the excellent quality of food produced from the soil on every hand. The bathing, boating -and aquatic sports, which can be enjoyed here, offer strong inducements to the invalid, the weary in body and mind, the lover of ru- ral scenery, the man of leisure and pleasure and all who desire to withdraw from the noise and turmoil of city life, to pay a visit to the eastern or Orient town of our fair Island home.

Obituary.
On the 3rd inst., at North Lake, passed peacefully away, after a brief illness of pneumonia, at the age of 72 years, Dougald Campbell, one of the early settlers of that neighborhood, The deceased wasa man of more than ordinary intelligence. He was appointed elder of St. Columoa Church during the pastorate ofthe late ‘* Father Jobn,” which office he continued to fill with satisfaction to the parish until death called him away. He also filled various public oitices, having been a Commissioner of the Small Debt Court for many years, and a leading Justice of the Peace for the greater part of his life. In whatever capacity he acted, whether asa public man or a private citizen, he commanded the con- tidence and esteem of all with whom he came in gontact. Of a genial and hospitable disposition, he was 4 general favorite in the neighborhood ; and many, both old and will cherish his memory in kindly remembrauce in the yearsto come. His funeral was attended by Protestants and Cuthotics alike, all feeling that in bis death the community had lost an upright aad obliging neighbor whose place canuot easily be filled. In the absence of the pastor, who was unavoidably absent owing to the death of his father, the funeral services were con- ducted by Rev. Gregory McDonald, of St. Margaret's. To the bereaved family Tuk EXxaMINER tenders its sympathy. ‘* They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.”
On Tuesday morning, April 2nd, after a tedious illness, which he bore with Chris- tian resignation to the Divine Will, Mr. George Glark Sherrin, youngest son of Mr. John Sherrin, of Crapaud, passed peaceful- ly away, in the 27th year of his age. He manifested great cheerfulness during his illness, and freely conversed with his re- latives and friends about his future home in Heaven, where there is no pain or sor- row. The deceased was a very estimable young man, and will be much missed in the community. He was for many years coBb- nected with the Orange Society and was a shining light in that institution, giving good counsel and advice to his brethren.
The funeral took place on Thursday, the 4th inst., and the last sad rites were per- formed by Rev. Mr. Daniel, Rector of St. John’s Church, and the brethren of the Orange Society. The funeral was one of
property of Sergt.
The medal is now the Crockett, he having won it three times in sucession.
A large number of friends assembled in the evening to assist in the presentation of the prizes. After the distribution three cheers were given for the friends who kindly contributed to the prize list, and three more for the Queen, The National Anthem was then sung, and the meeting dispersed, each feeling that he had spent one day at least on the sunny side of soldiering.
Following is the prize list—ranges, 200, 400 and 590 yards; 5 shots at each range:
of a possible 75.

natural mathematician of exceptional abilities More than half a score of able sea captains learned the science of navigation from him while he was little more thaa a boy in years. Brave to rashness and excelling in every man- ly sport, he was yet as gentle as a woman, suony-hearted, loving and lovable in ali things. A fellow-officer writes of him: ‘ I can’t tell you what a heartache this has given me. I had been messmate and intimate friend of his for more than two years, during the re- cent cruise of the Vandalia, and had grown exceedingly fond of him, as anyone was sure to do who knew him. His was a noble, gener- ous, manly heart, whfch never prompted an unkind act or had an unkind thought.”
Mr. A. Maurice Low, Washington cor- respondent of the Boston Globe, writes :—
** Pay Clerk John Roche, of the Vandalia. the brother of J. Jeffrey Roche of the Boston Pilot, was extremély popular with his associ- ates, He was tall and handsome, six feet in height, and an athlete in strength. He was one of the most genial and witty men that ever trod a plank.”
** While at the Sandwich Islands Roche was a great friend of King Kalakaua, who found in him a pleasant companion. He was a great favorite with everybody. Hewas forty-six years old, and had been pay clerk in the service for sixteen years, This was his fourth craise on the Pacitic, and once during the absence of one of the paymasters he had acted in that officer’s place for some months, which shows that he was trusted as weli as beloved. He had never been to Washington, but was ex- pecting to pay us a visit when his cruise on, the Vandalia was concluded.”
Mr. Roche was oneof the most popular men inthe service when he met the death which he would have chosen tadie, at the post of duty and honor, May he rest in peace !”
