“A Trip Through Scotiand.”

Professor Mellish delivered on Thursday

evening, in St. Dunstan's College, his very interesting and ees Trip Through Scotland. well received and highly appreciated by

lecture, ‘tA The lecture was

isi ent. His We leatn that the Lieut.-Governor| the students and visitors present

declined to grant o dissolution on the ae of the Premier, and that the Eres vincial Government have, consequently, igned. 3 othe report of the United States od sulate in Berlin shows a decrease in : ue exports from northern Germany e a4 United States for the first quarter o

responding period in 1890. .

_-The Montreal Gazette says: ‘‘So _far in Montreal about half the work of ates the census has been completed and it - has only been neceasary to remind one — that the Police Magistrate can take a — in the enumeration when necessary, This is a fairly intelligent town for its Rize.

~The Globe has finally given up the claim thst the Conservative Government was beaten at the last election. One of the ablest articles of the ‘* if the party is to survive Sir John” kind ever written ap- pears in its issue of Tuesday. The Mon- treal Gazette remarks that the Prewier can meet Parliament now without a quaver.

—Senator Wark, of Fredericton, —s life long Liberal—has written long open letter to Hon. Benjamin Butterworth in condemnation of Unrestricted Reciprocity. He says: ‘I believe our true policy should be to cultivate closer commercial relations with the United Kingdom and all the rest of the colonies.” :

—The Board of Trade had under dis- cussion last evening a subject to which Tur Examines has repeatedly called atten- tien. We refer to the washing away of the shore in front of Government Farm. It seems to us that a propos tion to le: 3 a amall portion of Government Farm for the purposes of a first-class hotel, on con- dition thata brsastwork and roadway be constructed around its shore fiont 1s worthy of favorable consideration.

On an Ice Flow.

A cotrespondent writes: ‘‘The people of Pownal Bay and vicinity were startled on Tuesday evening last by cries for help coming from the direction of = broken ice in a

iver. It appears that two young men, o ie tates Mf Mount Mellick Schvol and Stewart Maceachern, were in the act of taking a short cut around the shore to Pownal Wharf and steped on a piece of ice which was apparently solid, when to their horror it gave away from the shore, and before they realized their position the space between them and it grew so wide and the water so deep that they were completly cut off from escape, and in this manner were carried down the river till their cries attracted the attention of some parties on shore who speedily went to their rescue ina dory and brought them ashore and to the residence of Mr. McRae, where they were kindly cared for.”

The sub-

for the

ience. : Se dramatic delineation of the tragic fate of Rizzio, and the pathetic description of the crucifixion by Vandyck were strik- ingly pre-eminent. Historic Holyrood and Glasgow Cathedral were presented ina manner worthy of s Scott. His pictures ef Scotia’s beautiful scenery were graphi- cally porttsyed. The educational system, the principal industries and the chiet cities were briefly described. Many interesting relics and the primitive customs of the people of Scotland were quaintly — upon. His peroration was, indeed, e o quent, and a noble eulogy on the _nationa glory, magnanimous spirit and high intel- lectual achierments of the sturdy sons of Scotland. At the close, a hearty vote of thanks wss tendered the lecturer, who made a very fitting reply.

I suffered for twenty-two years with a sore toe from being frost-bitten, when one box of your Salve made a perfect cure of it. LI used it in the following manner :—'The wound was washed clean. every second night with warm water and Castile soap; then I applied the Salve lightly, and in a few weeks it was thoroughly cured, and has been per- fectly sound for the last three years.
