General Commission Agent,

Sons of Temperance.

Tur iollowirg isthe Address of Welcome presented to the Grand Worthy Patriarch, G. W Bentley, Esq., at the public tem- perance meeting, held last Tuesday even- ing:—

My Dear Brorrer,—In behalf of the three Divisions of the Sons of Temperance; and the temperance peeple of this city generally, it |affords me very much pleasure to extend to ‘you a most cordial welcome into our commun- ,ity, a8 a representative of the Grand Division lof the Sons of Temperance of P. E. Island, of

For Peace snd Quiet. in the place of, Which you have the honor to be the wérthy

jhead. Many reasons combine in opening our hearts for your cordial reception.

| We welcome you because we are painfully | conscious of a great and growing evil in the |midst of us—an evil more prolific in heart- | rending results than any other—an evil that | wastes cur national resources, peoples our j jails, fills our penitentiaries, impoverishes ; homes, brings sorrow to hearts, disgrace to | families, and sends untold millions down to a | premature grave, and a drunkard’s awful hell; \for ‘‘no drunkard shall inherit the kingdom of heaven,”

We welcome you because we recognize in your noble order a great power directed against this hell-ordained and devil-directed traflic, and we cannot close our eyes upon the work that your order has done in the past, is now doing, and is calculated to do in the ‘uture, in checking the fearful current of in- temperance, by saving the youth, rescuing the drunkard, and influencing legislation against the curse.

Ve hail your coming to us at this particular time (the very day that the argument on the vexed question of the constitutionality of the **Seott Act’’ is begun before the. highest tribunal in the realm) as an auspicious omen. We kuow that your presence will help to en- courage hearts that are growing faint in the conflict, and thus prepare us to enforce more rigidly the existing ‘‘ Act” which, we humbly pray and fondly hope will, at this time, be confirmed as the law that goveras us,

We welcome you, brother, and the honor- able order which you now represent, and, in the name of all the temperance people of this city, we wish youa hearty God-speed, and pray that your visit may be productive of, much good to us—thus making it pleasant to you.

Yours, in Love, Purity and Fidelity. D. G. MacDonap. Ch’town, April 18, 1882.

The G. W. Patriarch responded to the above in a very pleasing and well timed address. He said the Grand Division ap- preciated the kind reception extended to them at this time by the friends in Char- lottetown. The Sons of Temperance aim only at the removal of the liquor traffic, the giant evil, and the moral good of the community; and by the united action of all the professed friends of temperance, we are soon to win the day,

A Finger as a Nose.

A little over two years ago the medical and surgical world was deeply interested in the experiment of grafting og a nose, says the New York Daily News. The case was that of Thomas O. Colt, who had lost his nose, and the surgeon who had charge of the case was Dr. Thomas T. Sabine, of Bellevue Hespital. The operation con- sisted of grafting the large finger of the left hand on to the face, to supply the place of the missing nose. In order to do this the finger had to be split open, the nail re- moved, and it to be held in position for three months when it was amputated. Later the nostrils were formed. The other day Tommy, as he is called, was taken before the New York Surgical Association, in Sixteenth street, between Fifth and Sixth avenues, where, the sutures having been removed, an examination was made, and the operatiom pronounced a success, The bone of the figure forms the bridge of the nose. There was but one place in the nostril where the juncture was not com- plete, and an operation will shortly be made to remedy this defect. The whole case will be made the subject of a thesis in the journal of the association, and will be illus- trated by means of colored plates. Dr. Fox will prepare the article, and will, in fact, supervise the entire work-plates and ali Tommy is feeling particularly happy over the result of his case, and was very much annoyed at the report that it had been a failure.

A huge joke was perpetrated on Mr. John Charlton the Reform member for North Northfolk, the other evening. He went down to Cornwall on ‘‘ special invita- tion” to enlightea the benighted dwellers of that town on the ruinous results of the National Policy and the disastrous con- sequences of Sir John Macdonald’s Pacific Railway policy. He plodded away for an hour and a half, and at the close of his address the following resolution was moved and seconded : ‘‘ That the meeting thoroughly believes that the policy of the present Government, properly termed the National Policy, has tended to the‘materia! prosperity of the Dominion, and that that ‘policy is fully deserving of the support of

‘the people of Canada; and further, they | believe that the Government pursued a wise aad enlightened policy in arranging with the Cauada Pacific Railway Company for ‘the construction and working of the rail- ‘way, and the consequent opering up ‘of our vast fertile territory in the North- West for the purposes of settlement upon terms that are peculiarly advantage- ous to the farmers of Ontario and others who desire to take uplands.” Mr. Charlton is now of opinion that Cornwall is a bad place to get off his rehash of Sir Richard Cart- wright’s speeches, and te deliver himself of his stale jokes and antiquated funny stories. —Guelph (Ont.)
