When we think of the dear ones who in love and in truth | —_ labored and watched o’er the infantile ead, And guided our footsteps in childhood and | y outh ; We sigh for the joys which so quickly have fled ; But remember that He who has wisely bereft us Is able to comfort and amply repay, And in His great book He has graciously left us | Sweet comforts to cheer us along on our way,

How often when sickness and trials surround,

We sigh for the health which we ne'er

Tocheer us and wipe every tear from our

Remember His love ere our trials begin ; And thus we will calmly submit to His plea- ' sure,

For the cross we must bear if the crown we would win. /

IV. How oft when temptations and sorrows assail, We bow ‘neath the weight and are quickly brought low, Because we have trusted our own strength so frail, And looked not to Him who can crush every foe ; Then let us remember our Helper is ready To give us the victory over the strong ; And when the vile tempter comes let us be steady, And He will defend us and crown us ere long.

v. Thus oft should our voices be raised to His throne For merey and aid, as we journey along ; And thus we will never be sad or alone, For praise to our Helper will be our glad song :

Then let us remember on every occasion To lean on the strong arm stretched forth to sustain, And spread the glad tidings to every nation | Of Him who rewards, and the Lamb who was slain. J. B. Dockenporrr. Southport, P. E. I.

Arithmetic of the Chess Board.

— j

Srr,— While investigating a chess pro- blem, which I need not explain here further than that it was on the movements of a fugitive knight pursued by another over the board, I came upon a curious fact in regard to their combined numerals —thit is to say, the board, which was numbered 1 to 64, showed the added number of esch double move (each knight having stepped on 32 different squares) to be uniformly the sum of 65. The white knight following a backward series from 32 to 1, and the black knight taking the forward series of 33 to

‘**d suppose,” I asked, ** you have seen it in the day time, for its beauties are best ob- served when the sun is toying with the colors in their harmonious blending.”

** Yes,” said he, **I have walked over the ground several times, and I made up my mind that the ladies of your city must have had a hand in the selection, at least, of the floral adornments.”

** Doubtless,” I replied, ‘* we are indebt- ed to our lady friends for securing the fund that pays for the labor ; but, next to them we are indebted to a young enthusiast, a born genius at the business, who in former years devoted both his time and money for the public pleasure, and still kept at it, under some unappreciative dis- couragements; to him the city is indebted for carrying out what you see now.”

The stranger pressed his gloved hands together, and with a motion of applause gave a luud ‘** Bravo” for the young en- thusiast, and I only wish Arthur Newbery had been there incognito to hear thai ‘** Bravo.” It was from a gentleman (whose name I may not give) accustomed to the best O tawa society.

Cavendish Items. On Thursday evening, the 26th inst., the Rev. L. G. McNeill delivered a lecture in our hall, the subject’ being, ** The Battle of Waterloo, or a great Irishiman’s greatest fight.” The Hall was crowded with an at- teutive and appreciative audience, ‘who listened eagerly while he discoursed to us of the events which led up to and culmi- nated in that fearful struggle. He also drew vivid pen pictures of the two great commanders who were brought face to face on that occasion; and with the aid of a chart of the battle ground explained to us the positions of the contending armies, and the different manouvres gone through on that ever memorable 18th of June, 1815. The rey. lecturer was well qualified for his task, as he has visited the field of Waterloo and viewed it from its different strategic points. Mr. McNeill is a very popular lec- turer, and never fails to draw a crowded house in this his native place. At the close of the lecture, complimentary remarks were made by several of ovr citizens, and also by the Rey, Allan Simpson, of Halifax, who is at present visiting hs friends and relatives here. Our farmers are busy haying, and the merry clatter of the mowing machine rings out on the clear morning air. The season, so far, is favorable; but the crop is light, though the refresl.ing rains of the early part of the month have improved it considerably. Other crops in this section look exceedingly well, and are maturing rapidly, Fishing, so far, is a total failure. There has not been any mackerel taken yet. July 27, 1888. XXX. ll I A I Military Blundering.

wah (India correspondence of London Times.)

A very bad case of gross military blunder- ing, attended with disastrous consequences, has recently attracted public comment in the press. When the 2nd Battalion of the Queen's (Royal West Surrey Regiment) re- turned from Burmah in the last cold season a detachment was absent on service with the Southern Shan column. The party suffered great privations on the return journey from Mandalay to Umballa. When the detachment left Mandalay it was 75 strong, but on the way to Calcutta it was reduced by deaths from enteric fever and Cholera, and though leaving sick men at varicus, places to 62. The remainder of the detachment was then ordered from Calcutta in the terrible June heat to Umballa by train, though there are distinct orders against soldiers travelling during this season except in case of unavoidable neces- sity, and then only on the certificate of a medical officer. ‘The 62 mea marched from the front to the station at4p. m. The un- fortunate soldiers arrived atthe station thoroughly exhausted, many of them being ina fainting condition. The heat of the journey to Allahabad was very great, and on their arrival one poor fellow was taken out dead, while nine more were sent to the hospital too ili to travel any further. The remaining 52 men were sent,on to Umballa, and shortly after reaching there another man was attacked by sunstroke, while several others had to be taken into the hospital suffering from the effects of the journey. Thus out of 75 men who started {rom Mandalay but 52 arrived in Umballa, many of these being in a most critical con- dition. leenieiiiielttttemtenren
