One Prediction Fulfilled.
WHILE attempting to defend his un fortunate loan of 1877, Sir Richard Cartwright predicted that :—
‘*The moment we were relieved from our difficulties, the moment it ceased to be necessary for us to pay off these masses of indebtedness, the moment we had disposed in some way or other of the Canada Pacific Railway, he had no doubt our securities would rise in the market and would com- mand as good a price as the Australian.”
On which the Montreal Gazette re marks :—
‘Sir Richard Cartwright was correct in his view, and the result he predicted has been already attained. We have been reducing, not increasing our debt, measur- ing that debt by the annual burden it en- tails, we have got rid of the Canadian Pacitic Railway by handing over the re- sponsibility of constructing and working it to a private company, and asa result, the first time we enter the London market for a loan, aiter these achievements, we get about four pounds per hundred more for our securities, instead of four pounds less, than the Australian colonies.”

Camp Hunter.
Drum-Major John Allen, Staff Sergeant of the Camp at Hunter River, arrived by express last evening ; and reports that the troops in camp have made rapid progress in the different drills, both in these respective corps and as a brigade. Nothing can be more satisfactory, considering that the ranks are, toa large extent, filled by raw recruits who never before wore a military uniform ; and a great deal of credit is due to Sergeant-Major Campbell and Sergeant- Majer Kennedy (of the staif at Halifax), who have proved themselves to be excellent
drill instructors. The Sergean's and other ficers of companies, wo knew little the duties appertaining to their offices new, ate thanks to tie encampment andt the special instructions they received from the drill Sergeants both on and off parade, improving rapidly. The engineers are still very busily employed, under the orders of Major Dogherty and Lieut. McDougall, in exer- cises relative to fortificatioas, earthworks, ete.

Camp Hunter.
From the Examiner’s Corre spondent in ¢ ‘amp.
Hunrer River, July 5, 1884.
The Camp is getting on nicely, the best of feeling prevailing between officers and men.
The Commanding Officer (Lieut.-Col. Beer) visited every tent while the men
were at dinner yesterday, and found them contented and pleased with their rations, both as regards quantity and quality
The tents were, in general, well ket. The Engineers and Capi, Is: Co,, 82ad Batt., being extremely neat and well ar- ranged
There was a battalion drill the two last afternoons, the field officers being all mounted.
The camp is very healthy, scarcely any under the doctor’s care. Dr. Warburton is very attentive, and looks well after the health of the men.
We expect to have Divine Service in Camp to-morrow (Sunday). Archdeacon Read is expected to ofticiate.
We have had very few visitors from the city yet.

Church of England Synod.
(Collated from the Halifax Herald.)
The Rev. George W. Hodgson submitted amotion ‘‘that if any parish within the next year ask the synod to hold its next regular session in their parish, the execu- tive committee have power to accept such invitation on behalf of the synod,” and went on to forcibly urge the claims of other parts of the diocese. It was also recom mended that the synod itself should decide each time whether it should receive or reject the invitation of some pzurticular place. Mr. Fraser, of Halifax, seconded Mr. Hodgson’s motion, and remarked that Windsor, in many ways, was far preferaile co Halifax in its facilities for carrying on the work of the synod. He went ont claim that a better acquaintance of the working of the college would be more wice- diffused over the diocese. Canon Mayuard promised a hearty weleome to ali of the syned who would ouly puy Windso
a visit. Dr. FitzGerald thought that in would be a manifest advantage to the
church to move the synod from place to place if necessary accommodation could be
made. The docter spcke in glowing terms of the Tight litle Island” and promised
te
the synod a “‘good time” and a sending back of refreshed members after a visi: there. He heartily extended an invitation on behalf of Charlotietown. The motion was carried unanimously by both sides of th house.
The Lord Bishop teck up the question «f theological students and spoke of the deti- nite scheme submitted tothe synod for placing men who did not go through av arts course on a satisfact:ry basis. His lordship remarked that it was only too true that many men who had just ; assed through their art course were entitled to wear a hood, while those who had been far ahead ofthem in the theological examinations, but had not for some reason or the other been able to itake the arts course were at present deprived of the privileges of wear- ing a hood. It was now propused to form a degree of ‘‘licentiate of theology” with appropriate hood. Canon Dart gave a full explanation of the plan and heartily approved of it. Rev. J. J. Ritchie oppos- ed the plan and pleaded solely for an arts course, fearing that the tone of the ministry wonld be lowered if the arts course was not stringently followed. Rev. P. J. Filleul followed in the line of Mr. Ritchie and begged the House not to lowe the standard but rather to raise it. Canon Dart did net wish to be invidious, but he could say that of the rising young men in the ministry, many of those who had
taken simply the divinity course wonlu tower above those who had _ gone through the arts course. The Rev. F
R. Murray supported Canon Dart witb many pungent arguments in favor of a special theological course. Rev. J Man- ning, in a speech teeming with Irish wit, completely upset the idea that the tacking on of a [$. A. to» man’s name, made him a better or more cultured man than his brother, less learned in roots and gram- mars. The learned gentleman showed that some of the greatest leaders in the world of culture were perhaps unfortunate in not having this precious B, A. tu their names, and went on to say that the very teacher of the present univer- sity men at Kings college, had net bim- self received the cullegiaae B. A. Aso that some of the leading ciergynien of the diocese, and those called by the vuice of the congregations to fill some of the best parishes in the diocese were not university students, and were not rec»gnized by all as some of the leaders of culture (so-called) in our NovaScotia churches, Dr. Bowman would protect the interests of graduates alone aud nota retrograde movement. Rev.
Db. C. Moore said that the present pro- position would actually raise the standard of non-graduate students rather’ than the reverse. The Rev. G. W. Hodgson could not sea that the mys ical ietters | dD. A. and M. A. did nut seem ab- sulutely necegs: ry when our Cijeft
university had on its staff a wuj rity of professors who had not obtained their degrees in the usual way. The rev- gentle- men suggested that literary subjects should be added to the present proposed curricu-
know why there were so many English men | clergy in the Nova Scotiau Church, and the | college itself having English professors simply because the native supply was not commensurate with the demands, and it would be fatal in the face of this to make | foolish restrictions about B, A’s. The! Rev. J. QO. Ruggles in a spirited speech showed that many congregations would prefer a little less arts and a little more theology. Men were looking for workmen who could do their work well and do pro- fessionaily the task entrusted to them. The archdeacon of P. E. [. remarked that it was certainly strange that, during the past few years many men who had not taken the degree course HAD BEATEN THE MEN
in the divinity examination who had _ re- | ceived the title of B. A. The chief need | was a man peculiarly fitted for his work. | The Rev. Dr. Fitzgerald wished for no hard | and iastruie in the church. We wanted | able, eminent men who could do a noble | work for God. The debate came to a clos: | when the following was proposed: ‘Ic is} expedient to adopt a detinite theological | curse for students who are taking the arts |
|
course, or for those who are admitted under | the exempuon provided in the canon, | and it is the opioiou of this synod that such theological course should, in
the case of those not taking an arts course, include some subject of general education and ordinarily not ‘occupy less than three years. This waa moved by the Rev. D. ©. Moore, and seconded by Canon Maynard. Canon Dart might not object to Mr. More’s amendment if he had time to think over it—but must adhere to his own motion. He was sorry that Dr. Hill was not present to give his opinion as to the scheme, 48 he had ass-nted to it after some hesitation, but now he had become one of the lecturers under the scheme. The diffe:e it amendments were lost by vote and the original motion was carried.
Germany and England.
The fol'owing cable message appears in the New York papers:
** A painful impression has been produced in England by a pertinent aud bitieriy menacing utterance from Germavy, con- trived apparently to appear just at a tiwe when it might prove most exasperating.
It is from the Cologne’ VCazette, which often speakes by authority, and cousisis of an editorial upon the
conference. The article boldly states that the understanding reached between England and France concerning Egyptian aff.irs in the conference is undoubtedly due to their common hatred of Germany. Eaoyland, the Guzetfe says aims at lead- ership eve yWwhere that it can be attained without assuming the burdens of the costly armaments which other powers find necessary for national inieresis. Mr. Gladstone, the article continues, perceives that France must be useful to Eugland some day in the near future asa sort of shield bearer, and on this accu t he has manceavred to pledge France towards British designs. In con- clusion, the Gazet/e insinuates that Eng- land’s hurry in cailng the Egyptian con ference is due principally to her fears that Germany way re-open the question of the Dutch succession, and to her desire to -ecure a European partnership which may be extended to the Dutch question if it comes up. This utterance is believed to (ave been directly inspired from Berlin, and is at!racting widespread attention. In this conuection, it may be said that the Queen of Holland is to-day reported to be euceinte, and thus a new factor is brought into the question of the Dutch succession,”

A Cold Shock for Mr. Blake.
Hon. Mr. Laurier, speaking at the Knowlton meeting lately, lamented that the Eastern Townships had not suy ported so-called liberal principles in the pzst as he would have liked, and said:—
“They should go around in these counties canvassing, and perhaps Mr. Blake would soon have more followers in the house from the Eastern Townships,”
But, it may be asked, why should a:.. one ** go svournd canvassing’ on lLebalf ot Mr. Blake? Why should the electors of Brome, for instance, be asked to do what that hon. gentleman has so often expressly criticised and condemied ws a practice for- eipn to the genius and instincis cf ea free people 2 He Las pnt on record his opinion ‘f “yoing around canvassing,” which ir that the system ought to be done away with, and compu'sory voting adepted in stead. Mr, Blake takes the poriuion that the exercise of the franchice is a duty which the citiz n owes to the state; that it is beneath the dignity of a gentleman to ask his neighbours for their suffrages, but that a law should be framed and enforced compelling them to go to the pols, and re- cord their vot», under risk of pains and penalties, All will recollect what the hon gentleman said to the depu- tation sent to him by the Reform Ass»- ciation of South Brace, to urge him to take the nomination there. He told them that they might use hiswame if they cho-e, but need not expect him to canvass a vote or even appear 1n the riding; and said in effec: that he felt himself above the necessity of soliciting votes from house to house; and the hon. gentleman took occasion to enforce his views on compulsory voting, saying if men could be dragged to polling booth by process of law, there would then happily be no need of canvassing.” These the views of | the Opposition leader ou that oceesion; and | there is no reason to believe that they have | unitergone any change. When, therefore, | M. Laurier advised the people of Brome to | “vo aronpd canvassing’ on behalf of his ferond Mr. Blake, the sudden twinge which that seusitive yentleman felt can . be imagined. Itmust have put him into acold perspiration. -~Londun Pree Preas,:.
