Many have absolute- ly nothing for the subsistence of their families during the winter.” Such facts withstand a thousand feigne | professions that the Canadian fisheries are wot th nothing to the Maine fish- erman. -~ Halifa i Herald

Bap Crors tus Cavse.—A despatch from Hamilton, Ont., conveys the information that the house of Laing & Co., wholesale dry goods, the largest establishment in Western Ontario, is in difficulty.

The Union. Cause.
Se
Great Bangues in Dublin,
Dustin, Nov. 30
The Unionist banquet in Leinster Hall thisevening was .a brilliantafiair. The apt Ray professional men and a number of Catholic Unionists being pre- sent. The balcony was Crowded with ladies. Hartington and Goschen were given an oration. The toast to the Queen. was received with great enthusiasm, everybody rising and joinimy in singing the National
Anthem, and ** God Bless the Prince of Wales.”’ Mr. Kenny, #h eminent Catholie~ Barrister, m proposing the toast of the Unions
cause, denounced “* Home Rule” as an in- sidious misnomer, simply meaning a dis- memberment of the Empire and the utter ruin of Ireland. The agitation, he said, had already destroyed Irish trade and ruined Irish credit. There were hopeful symptoms that the people were beginning to find ont the real tendencies of the agita tors’ work.
Goschen, in responding, said the fact was shown that the most important part of Ireland was against Home Rule. He would help to convince England and the world that the agitator’s claim of representing lrish sentiment was highly delusive. F
The ‘Irish Times (Conservative) claims that the Unionist meeting last night was an assembly of intelleét, courage and popular feeling toyrotest, not as a minority, but substantially as the equal portion of the Irish people against the policy af the Home Rule Party. The Freeman's Jouwrna!, in its comments on the meeting, says: ‘* The surroundings proved that Lord Hartington and Goschen were avowed enemies’ of treland. The detectives, it.says, guarded the two Eng- lishmen as if they were a couple of Czars. The meeting was attended by only those who had tickets, and noclaim could be made that it was the free expression of public sympathy.” Obituary.

Unexpected Deaths.
The Summerside Journal says :—
“ We regret to learn that Mr. Henry Wells, a comfortable farmer of Elmsdale, dropped dead at the residence of his neighbar, Mr. Alexander Forsythe, about 4 p, m, last Monday. Mr. Wells, who had been visiting his friend, was in the act of turning around to take his departure, when he fell and expired immediately. Heart disease is supposed to have been the cause of his sudden demise.
The death of the Earl of Dalhousie caused indirectly by the shock. of the death of his wife the day before isasadone. He was better known as Lord Ramsay, a great friend of Lord Gladstone’s, who in the Liberal interests carried a division of Liverpocl a few years ago. He was a commander in the navy, which he served from 1867 to 1879. His wife
was Lady Ida Louise Bennett, youngest daughter of the Earl of Tankerville. Lapies Artrention.—Nice__ blotters for
