In order to cover up their failure, a report was circulated thai the money was diverted by Mr. Farguson to Pinette and Halliday’s. I

This impudent falsehood was actually em bodied in a petition addressed to Sir John Macdonald,

China Point, and to which quite a number

which was smuggled around

of respectable electors unwittingly attached

their names. It remains to be seen, now,

whether Messrs. Davies and Welsh wii try |

to take the credit for the grants to China Point and Port Selkirk piers. In fact, they cannot show that they have done a}

single cent’s worth of good for the County since their election. Mr. Welsh’s inquiry as to whether the Government intended

_— Anold physician ssys there are two sings against the stomach which bring about a terrible running account, the fuil payment of which often ruins us. These are haste and worry, and few Americans are entire y guiltless in these respects. We tell our children that it is ill-bred to stuff their food down their throats, and we call them ‘little pigs” when they do so, but the head of the table swallows his boiling coffee and gets through his steak or chops in the quickest possible time, while the mother worries lest he will not catch the train, and has not time to enjoy her own breakfast. Worry and haste too frequent- ly destroy the comfort and harmony of the breakfast-table, the meal which should be the pleasantest social meal of the day, when the family should be together uninterrupt- ed from outside visitors, and when the plans and pleasures of the day sbould be talked over gently and pleasantly.

Canadian Superphosphates. ———

Tne Sherbrooke (Que.) Gazette reports that the manufacture of superphosphate has been begun at Campbelton in the Kastern Town. ships, and that the phosphate made there is sold cheaper than that imported from Great Britain or the Uuited States, or than the same grade of te tilizer is sold to the Uniced States farmer. Tne Empire truly remarks that tor the manufacture of super phosphates Cauada has many advantages to recommend it. Our beds of mineral phosphhates are amongst the best and most extensive in the world, and are easily accessible. Large quantities of tie mineral, roughly broken, are shipped to Eaglend, treated and mixed, and a little of this finds its way at a greatly en- hanced price back to Canada. With a little more care to proluce sulphuric acid, for the production of which we have ample materia! in industries already established, there would be no obstacle in the way of protitably manu- facturing the superphosphate here and ex-

porting itto England. Atany rate the in- formation given will be < interesting to farmers in Prince Edward Island who are

using or contemplate the use of artificial man- ures,

tine throughout, and many of the stores | and places of business had displays of bunting in honor of the event. At two

| o’clock the members of the city lodges aad the visiting brethren from Summerside and Souris, assembled at Oddfellows’ Hall, and } wat half-past two, prece led by the Band of the 82nd Battallion, playing appropriate airs, marched in procession to St. Peters Chureh. ANNIVERSARY SERVICE AND SERMON,

i

The anniversary service was held in St. Peter's Church this afternoon at three o'clock. The congregation was large. Evensong was sung by Bro. Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd, and the special lessons for the oc- casion were read by Rev. James Simpson. An eloquent and appropriate sermon was preached by the Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd from the text Ist Epistle of St. Peter, 2nd chapter and 17th verse: ‘* Honor all men ; love the brotherhood; fear God ; houor the King.” It was an amplification of the prin- ciples of Oddfellowship as applied to the individual man ia his relationship with

his fellows and to the beneficent Creator in whose hands lies the des- tiny of him and them. He spoke of the

brilliant future which awaited the I. O. O. F. in its corporate capacity ; and impressed upon his brethren their individual duty io the fultilment of their sacred obligations and in carrying out in their imdividual lives the lessons inculeated by the grand and imprewsive ritual or the order, together with its oral teaching. A special silver col- lection was made in aid of the poor. Mr. L. W. Watsen presided at the organ with his accustomed ability and good taste.

At the conclusion of the service, the pro cession was re-formed, and after several of the principal streets were paraded the mem- bers of the order returned to their lodge room. The display throughout was of a high order, re flecting credit on all who took part. The celebration will be brought to a close by a grand operatic concert in Market Hall this evening, for which a splendid pro-

| gramme has been prepared.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

eigenen The New Directory.. Sin,—Frederick’s Directory, which is now being placed in the hands of subscrib- ers, may be a success as anadvertising medium, but is thoroughly unreliable in the very essential element of correctness. I will take the settlement of North Tryon for instance, one of the wealthiest nd best known sections of the Province, and show a listof errors which appear in the work : Correct names.

Names in Directory. Mrs Horatio Byron Mrs Wid. Byron. Lorenzo Campbell Mrs John Heatley Mrs John Hattey

Richard Heatley tichard Hattey Miss Martha Muirhead Mrs Martha Muirhead

Philip Simmons Philip Simon

The names of James A. Reid and Samuel Reid, of the Tryon Woollen Mills, John Crawford, Johnston Howatt, Wesley Robblee, Wilson Howatt and at least a dozen more prominent farmers are omitted,

I am informed that the Crapaud (adjoin- ing settlement) list is equally incorrect and unreliable.

Critic. Ch’town, April 25, 1889.

The Imperial Federation Journal of April 12 says: ‘ The directors of the British India association steamers here promised to grant Mr. Parkin a free passage on his return from Australia to this country next spring. Let us hope that Mr. Parkin’s visit, in stimulat- ing the growth of mutual interests, may stim- ulate, also, the growth of inter-British trade, and so promote the prosperity of the great steamship company that has already spun 60 many threads of union between Britain and the Antipodes.”
