opened the proce¢ dings by reciting an office

clergy present were tne Revs. 8. Weston- Jones, James Srnpsoa, C F. Lowe, 7; W Johaston, ©. E. MacKenzie, W. Sampson, H. Harper and Fred. E. J. Lloyd. The sOSelce of Rev I B Reagh Was especial- ly regretted, as hi had been chosen to read

a paper upon the advisability of appouting a Bishop for Prince Edward Island, which was to have been followed by a debate. The paper net being read, the debate was piust- poned. A most helpful paper was read by the Rev. James Simpson a@pon the spiritual life of the clergy, for-the deepening of which practical suggestions were made. [he paper provoked a very earnest “if somewhat lengthy discussion, and: Mr. Simpson was thanked for his paper. The meetings. of this Association, which are held quarterly at. different: pamshesia P. E. Island cannot but be productive of much real and lasting good, and the fact that their clergy are thus bestirring. theinselves and making earnest efforts after renewed zeal, devotion and brotherly’ love, should enkindle within the breasts of the laityia bright and steady flame of hope, and urge them on to a more hearty co-operation with their ‘‘ Spiritual pastors ” in their wearying and often thankless labors, and to. extend to them more vigorcus add "sympathetic support.

The next meeting of the Association will be held at Gabrgetown in thé’second week of June next. The officers’for the ensuing

year are: President the Rey. T. B. Reagh;,

Secretary, Rev. C. F. Lowé.

meeting of the Diodéésan Church Society held, in St. Paul's Schoolroom last evening. Both clergy and laity were more largely represented than in the Diocesan meetings, of recent years. Mr. Justice Hensley presided and addressed the meeting at some length, referring particularly’ to. the loss the Diocese *has sustained in the death of Bishop Binney, and the parish of St. Paul's in the sudden

departure of George Wright, Esquire.

various reasons, been found to be im- practicable. Concerning St. Peter's Church, Rev. S. Weston-Jones reports that the parochial or- ganizations have been kept in active working order; and that their number has latley been increased" by the organization of a sewitig society, whose object is to fill orders of diffefent kifids of sewing for the benefit of a new church for the parish. A Band of Hope is also in course ..of orgatiization. The receipts from the parish in the past year amount to $5,006,49, a considerable increase over the amount raiséd last year. The Rev.

Insurance for Credits.

A new commercial,.idea in New York, ‘consists ofa combination of insurance with ‘the ordinary commercial agercy, A can- ‘vass of the wholesale dry goods trade in

that city was made nearly & year ago, and thé encourayement obtained was sufficient not only to warrant the projectors of the | enterprise to go ahead, but also to start up 'a second concern of. the same kind, The ‘yival companies will go into business in ‘about a month... Their plan isto insure the ‘payment of debts by retail merchants throughout the country to the New York wholesalers, jobbers and manufacturers from whom they receive goods, This seems at first a wildly reckless undertak- ing. Nevertheless, the two companies have been sufliciently capitalized to begin operations on a considerable seale. One of them is already a commercial agency for dry goods people. It will keep up its reports of the tinancial standing of all merchants in the dry goods trade, and in addition to a varying fee, will issue a policy of insurance against loss on account of any retailer. The Other company will work inthe same manner. If a retailer's account is first rate, it will cost his creditor very little for a policy; but if the former be somewhat shaky, the chargefor the risk will be proportionally high. The agencies will buy any account which they have in- isured, paying its face value, minus the price of insurance, and interest at six per cent. from the date of purchase to the date of collection. The expectation is that this method will relieye the wholesalers of much trouble and anxiety.

The Western Assurance Company.

We learn from the reports of the West- ern Assurance Company that the past year was a most prosperous one. After pay- inent of losses the profit balance shows the sum of $99,031, the income from premiums being $1,630,097. The assets of the West- ern, which aniount to $1,542,172, are also in a satisfactory condition. The Western is one of the best Canadian companies, and that its risks are judiciously placed is evi- dent from the showing of the year’s busi- ness. In commen with the whole continent Canada suffered greatly from fires last year, and the insurance companies have had a pretty hard time of it. The Western’s statements are wel! worth examining as an evidence of the fact that careful manage- ment meets with certain reward, even in time of difficulty.

Toning Down.

It is perhapsa sign of the times that British judges sometimes take a less rigor- dus course with offenders brought before them for the crime of poaching tham they were wont to.. A few*weeks ago a Scottish court laid down the doctrine that the land- lord iad no proprietary right to the wild g*me that existed on his estate, his ground tor ‘prosecution —lying in the trespass com- mitted by the poacher in pursuit of the animals. This is a wide departure from eommonly received ideas, and might not be concurred in generally. But it is not -with- out its meaning. Yesterday, also, an English judge, deciding a case where a puacher was being prosecuted for assault on * game-keeper, took the offender's side and severely cvudeinned the practice of hunting poachers like wild animals as he put it. A professional poacher is not, as a rule, an rdividual that should be encoyraged ; , but ulider cover of the game ‘laws many an illegal outrage has been perpetrated by the landowner and his servants, and it is well that they should be taught that there are bounds they must not pass, A few years ago these decisions would haye caused a good deal more comment than they will tu-day. —Exchange.
