Wov tp it not be well for our City Fathers to consider the propriety of removing the Hay Market tothe Jail Square, and erect a Fish Market at one of our wharves, If this were done, the filth and poisonous gases would not abound around our most public Square to our disgrace, Part of the ground now occupied as Hay and Fish Market could be then converted into an ornamental flower patch, and decorated with suitable trees would add much to the beauty of Queen Square. Who will move ia this matter ?

Cuaries Leigu, Esq, was one of the Masons who turned out on Saturday afterneon to attend the funeral of Mr. C Hansen. He was in his usual good health and spirits. When nearing King Square he complaised to his partner that the pace at which the proces #100 Was movirg was too brisk, and expressed the belief that if it were not moderated he would be obligedto drop out. His partner thought nothing of the matter at the time ; but was shortly afterwards surprised to see Mr. Leigh stagger and fall prostrate to the ground. Kind hands at once came to his assistance, the services of Dr. Beer were called into requisition, and Mr.-Leigh was, after a short rest, able to return to his home

Own the premises of a certain vendor under the Scott Act, in Summerside, there are three business apartments, First, there is the “Outer Bar,” at which liquors for medicinal purposes are to be had—‘‘cheap for cash ;” nexé is the **Reception Room,” and beyond is the ‘‘Commona,” otherwise ‘“‘No Man’s Land.” On Saturday evening business was somewhat slow and the only occupants of the place were two young men who were in the **Reception,” discussing the advisability of joining the Salvation Army. The proprietor being left alone, fell to musing. His thoughts were on things financia!. Here was Satur day night and there was little or no demand for Sunday ‘‘medicine.” He went to the door and looked up and down the street, but not even the ghost of a customer could he see, He became disgusted, closed the doer with a bang, and returned to the ‘‘Onter.” He de- termmed to close up the shop for the night, as there was nothing to be made and much to be lost by keeping open longer. He accord- ingly extinguished the lights, locked up the store, and left for home, leaving the two ‘*Salvationists”—who were so e* grossed in con- versation that they did not notice his depart- ure,—in the ‘‘Reception.’’ About half an hour after the vendors departure the young men awoke to a realization of the fact that they had been locked in At first they were inclined to get mad and break things generally. This feeling, however, Soon wore away, aud they deter- mined that sinco they had ‘‘got left” they *‘would make a night of it.”’” After taking a bottle of ‘‘medicine” and a box of choice Havanna’s (three for a quarter) from the shelf, they seated themselves at one of the tables. About elevea o'clock a tonsoria! artist who had jast closed for the night, noticed a light burning in the vendor's store. As this Was an unuswal occurrence, the brave artist proceeded to investigate. He looked in and saw by the dim light, the forms of two itten. Suepecting that they were burglars he made a brilliant dash for the vendor's resideace. After a considerable amount of hammering, the vendor was aroused, and the state of affairs revealed. He became thoroughly alarmed, and slipped into his pants with un- usual rapidity. Grasping a potato pounder, and calling to the tonsorial artist to seiz> a butcher knife, he started oft bareheaded and sock-footed for the scene of action. On ar- rival there the vendor confrented the two men and demanded to know by what right they were in his store, and ‘‘punishing” his ‘‘medi- cine,” Some hot words were exchanged between the parties, The vendor threatened proceedings for burglary, (he did not know he locked them. in) and the young men threatened asuit for false imprisonment. The matter was finally explained to the satisfacti-n of a)! concerned, and after conferring the ‘‘bumper” all retired to their homes

A meeting of the Council of the Rifle Association was held in the Stipendiary Magistraie’s Court on Saturday evening. The matter was discussed but no definite action was taken. It was however decided that should a team from the Island take part in the affair, the match would have to be fired with Snider rifles and not Martini- Henri, as called for in the articles.

A little boy went into the parlor where his sister was being courted, and said : ‘Brother Tom told me to ask you what was the date of your last bustle, for he can’t

find to-day’s paper high or low, and he left it in your room just before supper.”
