“* Symppathy of Condolence,”

Xe

This morning a deputation of the mem- bers of the Caledonian Club, waited upon Mrs. Walker, and presented her with the following resolution of sympathy and condo- lence from the Club :—

Sr. Lawrence Hore, 30th November, ' 1877.

Ata Meeting of the Caledonian Club held this day, immediately on the return of the members from accompanying, 12 procession, the funeral of the late Honorable Patrick Walker, John A. MeDonell, Esq., President of the Club, having taken the chair, the follow- ing resolution was moved by Hon. W. McGill, and seconded by. John A. McDonald, Esy., and passed unanimously :—

Resolved, That the members of the Caledoni- an Club of Prince Edward Island, do deeply and sincerely condole with the widow of their former worthy and respected Chief, the Hon. Patrick Walker. whose death has caused such great bereavement to ‘his widow, aud a large number of relatives and friends; and the mem- bers of this club do earnestly hope that the widow of the late Mr. Walker, may derive comfert and consolation in her sorrow from Him, who alone can bestow these blessings, and that her aflliction will, in a . manner, be mitigates by the knowledge that she has the sympathy, not only of the members of this Club, but of the inhabitants of this community generally ; :

Ordered, That John A. McDonald, Esq., Hon. W. McGill, John A. McDonnell, Esq., A. A. McLean, Esq., A. McNeill, Esq., and the Hon. Av-A. McDonald, do compose a Com- mittee to present a copy of the foregoing reso- lution to the widow of the late Hon, Patrick Walker.

Mr. Caven, on behalf of Mrs. Walker, made the following reply :— , Gentlemen of the Caledonian Club:

I have been’deputed by Mrs. Walker to re- ceive you, and in her name to thank you for the kind expressions of condolence embodied in the resolution you have just read. Mrs. Walker is gratified to think that a resolution so honorable to the memory of her late hus- band, and your former Chief, should be _re- corded on the Minute Book of your Club. You have not, however, she is aware, been satisfied with this only: you accompanied his remains to the grave on the Feast of your, Club’s Patron, St. Andrew, with every mark of honor which your respect for an old and valued member could devise. This was not accomplished without some sacrifice and some inconvenience on the part of the Club. For these Mrs. Walker bids me thank -you, and at the same time, I am to assure you of her feel- ings of gratitude for the expressions of sym- pathy you have bestowed on her, and the hon- ors conferred by you on her deceased husband.

The Fishery Commission.

TEXT OF THE AWARD AND OF JUDGE KEL-

LOGG’S PROTEST.

(From the Toronio Mail. )

Wasurneton, D. C., Nov. _ 24.—Tele- grams received here give the following as the record of the closing proceedings of the Fishery Commission, sitting at Halifax for the last. five months :

The undersigned Commissioners, appoint- ed under Articles 22 and 23 of the Treaty of Washington of the 8th of May, 1871,

Do DETERMINE, having regard to the pri- vileges accorded by the United States to the subjects of her Brittanic Majesty, as stated in Articles 19 and 21 of said Treaty, the amount of any compensation which in their opinion ought to be paid by the Govern- ment of the United States to the Govern- ment of her Britannic Majesty in return for the privileges accorded to the citizens of the United States under Article 18 of the said Treaty, having carefully and impartial- ly examined the matters referred to them, according to justice and equity, in conforin- ity with the solemn declaration made and

subscribed by them on the fifteenth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven, do award the sum of five millions five hundred thousand doliars in gold to be paid by the Government of the United States to the Government of her Britannic Majesty, in accordance with the provisions of the said Treaty.

Signed at Halifax this twenty-third day of November, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven.

The

ington are greater than the advantages con- ferred upon the United States by said Treaty, and he cannot, therefore, concur in: the conclusions announced by his collea- gues, and the American Commissioner deems it his duty to state further that it is ques- tionable whether it is competent for the Board to make an award under the Treaty, except with the unanimous consent of its members, (Signed), E, H. KELLOGG.

Hon. Dwight Foster, agent of the United States Government, then said: ‘*I have no instructions from the Government of the United States as to the course to be pur- sued in the contingency of such a result as has just been announced, but if I were to accept in silence the paper «signed by -two Commissioners, it might be claimed here- after that as agent of the United States I have acquiesced in treating it as a valid award. Against such an inference it seems my duty to guard, I therefore make the statement, which I desire to have placed upon record.”

Cyoxep To DeatH By A Marsie.—On Thursday night week, a little child of Mr. Holtze, carpenter, who resides in Berlin, Ont., was choked to death bya marble, which it had playfully put into its mouth in imitation of some older children. Medical assistance was promptly called in, but the

r little child, scarcely a year old, was dead before the arrival of the doctor. Mothers and nurses should take warning from this—they cannot be too careful in

keeping out of reach of their darlings every-

a-—

as which their lives may be en- dangered.

Civic Improvements—and More Wanted.

To the Editor of the Daily Examiner :

Srr,—The marked improvement which has recently taken place in the organization of our city staff, and the satisfactory mode in which our city affairs are now being managed—the direct effect no doubt of the accession to office of our present energetic Mayor—are matters of congratulation with our citizens’ generally ; and besides these beneficial changes, it is also gratifying to notice the street improvements that have lately been’made in various parts of the city and its approaches. But, while these improvements are so apparent in most of our ‘streets and thoroughfares, there is one great thoroughfare leading into the city, which ap-. pears, In a most unaccountable manner, to have escaped the notice even .of our vigilant Mayor. I refer to the St. Peter’s Road; and if evidence, in proof of the centrast between the neglected state of that part of the city as
