Owen Haat, Esq.—Tho following short obituary
notice of this gentleman reached us too late for the last
issue of our journal. ‘The writer was well aequainted
with the deceased, and, we are coufident, every one who
knew the latter will cudorse the tribute here paid to
him who ie no more.

We regret to record the death of Owen Hamil, Usq..
Architect, which sad event took place Brule, Col-

eh r County, at two o'clook, Wednesday, 12th inst.
Mr. Hamil was a native of Cross-mu-glenn, County
» Monaghan, Ireland, and son. of Mr. John Mamil,
Oniville, Providence, Rhode Isladd. He empgrated
when very young to the United States, where he studied
‘architecture under the famous P. C.
~New York. | His first effort in his profession in the
Provinces was, we believe, the erection of the beautiful

» Catholic Chyrch at ‘Tignish, P, BE. Island. Subsequently
“he designed and enperintended the erection of the
* massive stone church of Cheticamp, Cape Breton In
865 he superintended the erection of the new Catholic
ureh ol Pictou. in 1866 that of the new Kirk belong,
ang to the Bt. Andrew's congregation of that Town—
buildings which shall be enduring monuments. of his
\ genius, and proficiency in Veclesiastical architecture.
+. has Alte lett behind bim many other buildings which
testify to his thorough acquaintance with his profession,
At the ine of his death, Mr, Hamil was engaged in
superintending the work of the Cathedral. ‘The de-
ceased was, a gentieman of pleating manners, urbane
disposition, and generous heart. Ie made himself
many friends, and few we believe, had his acquaintance
j sec will not lament his sudden demise,—Antigonish

_,, There has been some discussion in the public journals
respecting the pena from the Papal service of
sdveral volunteers, Irishmen, for improper conduct,
The Roman correspondent of the Weekly Register, a
London Catholic paper, was the first to allude to this
tnpleasent affair; and from ite version it appeared that
the provoking cause of the action on the part of the
Sovereign Pontiff was a Fenian demonstration that it
was allempted to get upin Rome. The facts having
reached the cara of five authorities, the proposed demou-
stration was of course put a stop to, and the men who
had taken the ebicf part therein were at once sent
baek to their own homes, ‘

This report we find confirmed in the Jrish American,
a Fenian organ of New York, by a letter dated Rome,
3rd ult. Ageording to this version, which, in its main
features, agrees with that of the Weekly Register, it ap-
pears that;

“'The Irish in Rome were making preparations ona

‘grand scale for a solemn High Mass and OMce for the
souls of Allan and his companions. It was to have
come off on the 28rd of December in the church of

_ St. Andrea Della Frate.”

Tho preparations were well nigh completed when ti-
dings having reached the Pope's ears, Monsignor Tal-
bot, the Papal Chamberlain, immediately sent a warn-

-ing to the priest against allowing his cuurch to be nsed
for tho intended demonstration, as it was got up by
sympathisers with Fenianism. Herenpon there was
some excitement and inurmuring, the result of whieh
was the dismissal of the offenders from the service, and
their return home. This little fact is conclusive as to
the light in which Fenianiam is regarded at the iiead-
quarters of the Catholie religion, and by the Sovereign

*Pontiff,—Montreal True Witness.

Tho steamers Commerce and Alhambra, of the Bos-
‘ton and Colonial Steamship Line, will be placed on the
route between this port, Boston, Charlottetown apd
Plaister Cove, sometime in March.—Hz. Chron., Feb. 24.

cation of the whole work been obtained at the outset

ticularly, would not presunt the unsightly appearance it
now does,

Alter some discussion on the subject, the Council ad-

éf the Second District of King's County, was held at
the store of Atithony McCormack, Esq., Head of St.
Peter's Bay, on Saturday last, the 29r of February,
for the J mae SoA taking a ey hog nee
priety sebing an eu ociety in t

district The liveliest fatdfont was manife in tho

Keely, Esq., of

His Honor the Recorder laid before the meeting |

project by those present, and judging from their stand-
ing. intelligence, and determination, there is little
doubt but that the Society will be worked out vigorously
to the advantage of the District and County general'y.

Martin McInnis, Esq., having been appointed Chair-
man, the Members of the District (Messrs MeCormack
and Reilly) addressed the Meeting, as also did Hilary
Melsaae and James Hogan, Keqrs., and other gentle-
men, upon the benefits to be derived from the catablish-
ment of Agricultural Societies, .and the scientific
prosecution of farming. A letter waa read from the
Hon. Geo. Beer, wherein that gentleman proposed to
become a member of the Society, and threw out some
valuable suggestions as to the use of lime aud mussel-
mud, which were well received. A proposition from
the same gentleman to appropriate £15 to be distri-
buted in Fata and other ways, was laid aside for fur-
ther consideration,

A code of Rules and Regulations were submitted, and
after some amendment, were approved of. The fol-
lowing gentlemen were appointed office-bearers of the
St. Peter's Bay Agricultural Society, until the Second
Wednesday in July next, namely :—

Patron--James Hogan, Esq.

President--Martin Molnnia, Esq,

Vice-President—Mr, Jas. McKay.

Sec’y and Treas.—Anthony McCormack,Esq.M.P. P.,

dergon, John MeIntyre, John Ryan, Norman Mathe-
son, and Peter McAulay.

A vote of thanks wag then passed to Mr. Reilly for
his trouble in organizing the Society and preparing
rules for its goyernment. A vote was also passed to
the Hon. Geo. Beer for the suggestions and proposi-
tions contained in his letter, alter which, Messrs. Me-
Cormack and Reilly having been instructed to apply to
the Legislature for an Act of Incorporation and a grant
of money in aid of the Society, the meeting broke up,
highly pleased with the proceedings, and anticipating the
most satisfactory results from the proper management of
the Society. A large number of names, accompanied
by the subseription required by the Rules, were banded
in to the Seerctary, foremost among which, as in every
other good work and reform, is that of His Lordship
the Bishop of Charlotteown,

A, McCormack, See’y.

St. Peter's Bay, Feby. 29, 1868.

Cnantorrerown Depatixa Ciun.—On Friday eve-
ning last, the question, Had the Nova Scotian Par-
liament the power, constitutionally, without an appeal
| to the people, to assent to Confederation ; and are the
| people justified, under existing circumstances, in sueing
| for a repeal of the Union?” was opened by Mr. Robert
Shaw, who was of the opinion that the Representatives
of Nova Scotia had the Constitutional power of assent-
ing to Confederation without an appeal to the people,
and cited the highest copeutguiens! authorities In sup-
port of that measure.

Some who took part in the discussion that followed,
held the opposite opinion, and maintained that the re-
presentative acted mercly as a trustee for his constituents
and as such could not depute or assign that trast to
others, and that not only had he no right to pass any
measure which his euceessors could not repeal, but
that he must resigu the trust committed into. his hands
unimpaired to those from whom he derived it, whieh
arguments were also supported by numerous authori-
ties.

Asto the second part of the question, there were
those who thought that although there may be no doab:
as to the constitutional power, there are cases (and the
one under discussion is one,) in which the Representa-
tive has no moral right to exercise such power, however
constitat'onal. Asimany of the members had not an
opportunity of expressing their opinion on the subject,
op motion of Mr. Laird, the digcussion was adjourn ed
until . riday evening next,

R. R. Firzerenatn, Sec'y.

“Do you know what I am thinking about?” said a
'enstomer to his barber, ‘* No, sir, not exactly; but 1
can see what is running in your bead.”

Holloway's Ointment and Pills. —Rheumatism or Neu-
ralgic affections. —No diseases are more frequent, pain-
ful, or dificult to cure than these. From their attack
no tissue of the human body is cxempt; no age, sex, or
calling secure. It is a blessing, however, to know that
all these sufferings may be completely and expeditiously,
subdued by Holloway’s remedies. The Pills mach as-
sist in banishing the tendency torheumatism and similar
painful disorders; whilst the Ointment cures the local
| ailmerts, the Pilis remove the constitutional disturbance

and regulate the impaired function of every organ
throughout the human hody. ‘The eure is neither tem-
porary nor superficial, but permanent and complete,
and the disease rarely recurs, so perfect has been the
purification performed by these searching preparations.
