CHARLES PEARSALL, employed at the Fulton fish market, New York, said he could eat sixty eggs a day for five days. John Ross, who keeps the restaurant where Pearsall dines, bet that he could not, and a match was mace for Pearsall to start on Tuesday last, and eat thirty eggs at a sitting, twice a day for five days. He gets $25 if he sne- ceeds. He is a good looking young fellow, and weighs 140 pounds. The tisher- men all bet on him, and outside sports are betting against him. He has his eggs soft boiled and emptied into big soda water glasses. Three glasses hold thirty eggs. He does not appear at all inconvenienced by his unusual meals, and, if his liver continues in working order, will probably win his money on Satur- day next,

A Sav Casz.—The family of John McFar- lane, a workman in Cushing’s Mill, Union Point, Fairville, says the St. John Globe, has lately been attacked with scariet fever. On Saturday last the eldést boy died and was baried on Sunday. The other children. being “nigh unto death,” and the mother wearied and worn oat from her long watching and almost on the point of succumbing, too, proved too much for the _ brain of the husband to stand, and on Thuars- day, on the certificate of Dr. F. McFarlane, and warrant of Justice Olive, 3rd, and Mc- Naught, removed to the Lunatic Asylum as a dangerous lunatic and unsafe to be at large. On that morning he made threats and an

- attempt to kill his wife and a young man, a neighbor, whom he accused of having stolen the son who died the previous week, The family are now slowly recovering.

Masy of our readers will remember a German named Keck, who visited Charlotte- town a few months ago with a stock of canary birds, aud while here had his headquarters at the Diamond Bookstore. When last heard of he was in Boston. He has heen victimized by ‘eontidence” women, Mr, Keck, it appears, was standing in front of a saloon on Washing- ton strect, gazing at the passers by, and no doubt, contrasting the great difference be-

tween German and American civilization, when he was accosted by two flashily-dressed women, who sympathizingly enquirel the

cause of his apparent lonesomeness. The bird- dealer, being a stranger in a strange land, was

naturally very thankful te the ‘‘ladies” for |

the kind interest manifested in his affairs. After a short chat on the sidewalk the trio repaired to a saloon near by to regale them- selves with lager beer. The thought flashed through the Ge-man’s mind, as he walked along, that possibly his companions were gay deceivers; but, on sober second thought, it occurred to him that his m ney and valuables were in an inside vest pocket, where, in his innocence, he imagined they were secure from human hands, They satdewn and drank. The bird-dealer was evidently delighted with his company. Onze sat on his knee, and, as if by accident, her hand found its way across his bosom, Then it came back and passed to-

wards her confederate, who shortly afterwards |

got upand went out. When the German awoke from his dream, he found that his unapproachable vest pocket had been relieved of $140 in cash and two checks, payable to his order, one revresenting $30) and the other $210. Me reported his low to the police who succeeded in arresting the two womea. ‘They admitted the charge and said they divided the money between them, and destroyed the checks. A small portion of the money was found under the carpet ia the house in which the two women were arrested, but no trave of the checks has yet been discovered.

AN amueing story is told in connection with the vagaries of the telephone, which trane- mits witb the fidelity of the human ear itself, everything it hears. The other day, says a London jourval, a grocer wished t» purchase a large quantity of sugar. He telephoned to a weil-kuown firm to ask the price. 27s,” was the reply. ‘“‘No; I will give 26s. 64.” said he, and then listening he heard one of the firm say to his partner. ‘‘Sball we take it?” **Yes,” said the partner, ‘‘but try to screw another threepence out of him.” Then loudly through the telephone: ‘‘My partmer says 26s Yd. is the lowest we can afford.” “In- deed,” came the answer, ‘‘why I heard him say try to screw another threepence out of me. No, no; 963, 6d. is the price;” and so it was.

THe Consrrrators.—A Toronto despatch vf the 8th says:—‘‘Wilkinson, Kirkland, Bunting and Meek have been committed for couspiracy. The charge of bribery is not decided. Kirkland fainted away as the magistrate pronounced judgment on his case. The magistrate said that Kirkland’s offer of $1,000 to McKim connected him with the business, and that Bunting was implicated by reason of his saying that whatever Wilkinson and Meek egreed to do, should be carried out. The magistrate made a Grit stump speech, garbling the evidence, and shewing great tenderness for the Ontario Government. Persons from Toronto say that it was well known that Dennison would decide in favor of Mowat’s contention, he being a rabid Grit.

The Easter Market.

The snow of Thursday afforded good sleighing yesterday and part of to-day. Many were therefore enabled to attend Easter Market, which would otherwise have been prevented from so dving. The market was as large as in any previous year, and the display of beef, we think, could not be rivalled in any part of the Dominion. As usual, Blake Brothers lead in the exhibition. Their market was tastefully hung with choice beaves which were most favorably commented upon by all who examined them, Three carcasses of animals fed by Blake Bros. weighed 2,500 Ibs., the carcasses of two heifers fed by D. Mutch, Esq., weighed 1,800 lbs., and that of a heifer fed by Mr. McKinlay weighed 850 Ibs. The show wes very creditable to Blake Bros. Messrs. Saunders & Campbell had some fine car- casses on sale. They were tastefully butchered, seemed in excellent order, and weighed respectively £69, 917, 649, 621, aud 542 ibs. The carcass of the heifer which took first prize at the Dominion exhibiton attracted attention to the stall of Messrs. Wheatley & Son. It weighed 1,048 ibs., and is undoubtedly one of the fattest cattle ever butchered in this Province. Besides, this enterprising firm had two fine carcasses on sale which weighed 810 and 605 Ibs. respectively. Messrs. A. L. Bridges & Co,., made a fine exhibit of ox beef, hams, and rolled bacon. Three car- casses on sale turned the scales at 2,512 lbs. Other stalls—such as Messrs. Bur- ronghs, Thorve, McGregor, Mullins, D. & S. Brown, H. Wood, and J. Drake, made a god exhibit, having carcasses averaging 700 lbs. The stalls of Messrs McGregor ‘and Mullins, looked particularly fine, and seerned to be well patronized.

The upper department of the Market as well stocked and sales seemed brisk.

- Prices were as follows :—

Beef, small, 7 to 16 cents; do., qr, 7 to 12 cents; mutton, 7 to 12 cents;

pork, carcass, 7 to 8 cents; do., smali, 9 to 10 cents; veal, 3 to 8 cents; turkeys, $1.25 to $’.00; geese, 50 to 60 cents; ducks, 25 to 35 cents; fowls, 50 to 70 cents: butter, fresh, 24 to 30 cents; do., tub, 22 to 25 cents; exus, 12 | to 14 cents; flour, per 100 Ibs., $2.40 to $3 00; oatmeal, $2.50 to $3 00; oats, 32 to 34 cents; hay, 40 to 50 cents; sheepskins, 69 to 35 cents; potators, 14 to 183 cents; turnips, 14 to 16 ceuts; wild geese, 60 to 80 cents; seed wheat, $1.60 to $1.75; clover seed per lb., ’ to 94 cents

Eyes.

The fact is that a lerd is a strangs an- thropological phenomenon, a human fossil straying in our century, of which there is no specimen to be found in French society. His whole mode of life up to this point has been such that the question, ‘‘Is it possible that this exceptional type, this monster, should see things from the same point of vi-w as his compatriot, Mr. Smith or, Mr. Brown ! must invariable be answered by physiology and simple common sense. ‘‘No; a hundred times no.” And yet so strange is the character of the English that they permit the influence of the nobles to per- vade all classes. Among the great number of ‘‘inert voters,” forming the audience in the House of Lords, there are, however, some twenty or thirty who stand above the rest. They have been abroad, holding diplomatic posts, and are in consequence interested in foreign and colonial—impe- rial, they like te say—affairs. ‘They have, besides, had a good training in the House of Commens, while their fathers were alive, and they who uphold the House of Lords, and who make debates on foreign and colonial affairs especially interesting. But in spite of this oceasional interest which the debates may have, it is incontestable that the House of Lords is at present more an archzological curiosity than an active body. It certainly has played its part in history, has been very useful, has seen times of corruption and tyranny, and has also its hereditary privileges; its independ- ence and its own interests have made it into the natural antagonistic and the counterpoise of royalty, but to-day its part is insignificant.

DIED.

At Orwell, after a few hours illness, on Saturday, the 5th inst., Christina, relict of the late Malcolm Gillis, aged 71 years.

She was an amiable and pious woman, and her sudden death is deeply regretted “by a large circle of friends and acquaintances.

At Welford, N. B., on the 7th inst., Mattie, beloved danghter of Stephen and Janet Stumbles, aged 3 years, 9 months and 10 days. ‘*Sufter little children to come unto me, and forbid them not for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.”

Of all the beautiful ceremonies of the Catho- lie Church, the Mass of Requiem and Office for the Dead are the most beautiful and touching. Particularly sad and solemn ap- peared they on Friday, April the 4th, to the large throng assembled in the Church of St Columbia, East Poist, for the purpose of pay- jog the jast tribute of affection to all that was mortal of John Campbell, Esq., who died at Elmira, Lot 47, on the 2ud inst., at the age of 74 vears. Deceased was a man of many virtuous and estimable qualities, loving towards his friends, generous towards his neighbors, and charitable towards the poor, He was an Elder of his parish church for the greater part of hie life, au oftice which he fillei with the great- est fidelity. His cheerfulness and exemp- lary disposition wou for him a large circle ot frinds. But death knows no distinction; all must go when summoned, His hour had come and Almighty God, in His inscrutable wisdom, saw fit to take him to Himself, to free him from the pain and sorrow of this pilgrimage ; and call him to the reward, He has promised all faithfal souls, who suffer for His sake, His sufferirg during illness was intense in the ex- treme; but encouraged by the kind adminis- trations of his loving wife and family, to bear it heroically in commemoration of the suffer- ings of our Divine Saviour, hé accepted it

withont murmur, with patience and fortitude like unto a martyr, and was rewarded by a peaceful and happy death, surrouaded by his tamily, and

fortitied with the armor of God administered to him many times during his illness, He died as he lived : at peace with God and man, He leaves a sorrowing widow, three sons, six daughters, and a number of relatives and friends, to mourn a kind and loving husband and father, and a g-verous and hospitable neighbor. We sic rely hope and trust that the prayers o’ ine faithful in bis behalf will receive favor irom Almighty God, that He will have muercy on his soul, grant him etern-Lrest, and give his family the grace to vir affliction with Christian fortitude. ~- R, lh P,
