Our Trettie. \ CORNISH PILOT'S STORY.
(The following touching little poem will, doubtless, find its way to many a_ bereaved parent’s heart.)
W ould’st like me te tell thee something about our little pet’
Maybe J best can do it, the mother would surely fret ;
But I like to talk of our blossom flower was she,
The light and joy of our cottage, and the pride of my life to me.
a fair little
We'd but the one, you see, sir, so we treasared her all the more,
By the one wee bird in an empty nest you needs must set great store ;
And her curly locks and laughing eyes were a bonnie sight to see
When the little lass came trotting out, so glad to welcome me,
She was only a _ pilot’s bairn, sir, the grand old sea
She heard its waves as her cradle song, and tossed in the boat with me ;
And she'd shout with joy as the waves rode high, and clap her hands with glee,
Saying ‘‘Trottie aint one bit afraid to be out on father’s sea,
reared | Vv
So seven winters of storm and cold, and seven summers bright,
Slipped like the tune of a morning song when when all the world is light,
Ant then—I must tell it short, sir, for the sore has a smarting pain —
Our darling went from our cottage, and she'll never come back again.
A fall, and just a bit of a hurt, that wasn't much to see,
And then she drooped and faded, too sweet for the likes of we
I think the Lord of the children wanted her up above,
So He stooped for our one wee blossom, and gathered itin His love.
And I'd earry her to the cove where the waves plash soft and low,
And I'd tell those waves that I know so well as I couldn't let her go!
And Trottie would talk of the lovely Home where there is ‘‘no more sea”
‘‘No storms and wrecks ! and no empty lpats
-that’s what it means,” said she.
‘And, father, dear when you've been out, and
bring you back ;
often come quite trne, And Trottie wants to thank Him fg His ‘Peace, be still,’ to you.”

along the road, To end the journey surely at home with her and God. Rosa WHEELER. ceternetuagaieliaiainiai Lisi Cardigan Notes. The weather is so mild that navigation is open yet, and the schooner L. & 8S. is load- ing a cargo of potatoes for the United States.
The quantity of produce shipped at Car- digan this year is far in excess of any pre- vious season. An extended report is being prepared, and will be published when the navigation finally closes, or at the end of the year.
Although the prices given for potatoes, oats and turnips were very low, owing to the rot in the potatoes, shippers have not made much money. The farmers have had the satisfastion, however, of getting as much as those in other sections of the Island, and it will be necessary for them to consider carefully why so many of their potatoes had the dry rot that was so pre- valent.
The Liberal-Conservative Convention in Georgetown, on Thursday last, was a great success. Scores of wagons passed Cardigan and the Grits were all in hiding to conceal their chagrin. If the day had been fine, no doubt the number who attended the Convention would have been largely in- creased. Enough, however, were present to show conclusively that the Liberal- Conservative Party in King’s County, as Senator Howlan so aptly said, are ‘‘ nu- merous, intelligent and influential.”
The annual meeting of the Three Rivers lairyman’s Association is to be held in New Perth School House on the first Tues- day in January, and interesting papers are promised by some of the members of that Association. This Society has done some useful work during the past year, notable among which is the ploughing matches that have been held. It is very important that our farmers should be skillful p’oughmen, for without caretul preparation of the land, less abundant crops will be raise.’; and when prices are low, it takes the very best yield to the acre to give farmers a living profit.
The attempt of the Patriot to throw ridi- cule on Senator Howlan and the subway not only shows that the Grits are ‘‘cut to the heart” at the mignificent demonstra- tion made by the Liberal-Conservative Party (against the influence of which they dare not say aword) but it also is cal- culated to have a prejudical effect on the best interests of the Island. The article headed ‘‘The Grave Digger” in last I riday’s daily is a dastardly attempt to make out that Senator Howlan is only a crank who rides a hobby, and that, consequently, the Dominion Parliament should pay no atten- tion to hifa. Every well-wisher of the Province, no matter on which side of poli- tica, should resent an attack on a gentle- man who is doing yeoman’s work in the in- terests ot this Islanc How it is that so many of our people are blinded by the ad- vice of the Patriot and the Grit Party can only be ascribed to the fact that ‘God has given them strange delusion that they should believe a lie.”

The Marquette Nomination.
Hon. Thomas White has sent a letter to the Conservatives of Marquette declining the tendered nomination and urging them to support Mr. Boulton. He says:—‘‘l feel deeply the compliment thus paid me, especially as it comes from a community with which my relations have been only official, and implies, therefore, that my efforts to administer the affairs of the Land Depart- ment in the interests of the people of Manitoba and the Northwest have met with the approval of those who have the deepest interest in them. I am reluctantly however, compelled to decline the pro- ferred nomination. Conservatives of Card- well, in 1878, nominated me without my knowledge or sanction, and although I was at the time an entire stranger to them they have since renewed their confidence in me by an increased majority at the elections which have occurred since that time, and they have done me the honor to request me to again become their standard bearer at the approaching election. Their kindness and confidence established a claim upon what | service I ean render them, which it would be most ungrateful to ignore, and J] have myself again in their

Speaking of the state of trade, the Mon
treal Gazette says : ‘According to precedent we should have a dull state of trade during the present month, but such precedent has been perceptibly moved aside to an extent which has admitted a very fair volume of business, considering the time of year. This is all the more satisfactory, as the demand at this season comes naturally and without any effort to create it,most merchants being intent on squaring accounts rather than in soliciting new business. The general feel- | ing in the mercantile community is healthy and few complaints regarding payments were heard of Our compilation of the |value of goods entered for consumption at this port for the eleven months clearly re-

And the wife and me are pressing quicker; us whether we will or not, to an ordeal, to
which the wonder is not that some suc- cumb, but that any escape from it alive. Mr. E. Y. Robbins, writing in the Popular Science Mouthly, under the heading, ** How to Warm our Houses,” describes it without exaggeration. ‘‘If.” he says, a “‘blizzard of unusnal severity were coming from the Northwest that would send the thermome- ter down 50° or 70° in three hours, we should expect a great increse of pneu- monia and other respiratory diseases, resulting in many deaths. Now, instead of three hours, suppose the mer- cury were to drop three score degrees in three minutés—-or, take another step in fancy,and suppose this great change to take place in three seconds—what would be likely to be the effectof health? And yet we bring about, artificially, changes to our- selves quite as sudden and severe as this. We make an artificial climate of our houses. We live in-doors in an atmosphere heated by stoves, furnaces or steam pipes to 70? or 80° ; and we pass from our parlor or hall so heated into the open air. At a step, literally in a breath, the temperature of the air has, for us, dropped 50° or 70°
It is in effect going from Cuba to Iceland or at Jeast co New York—at a step, and we make the journey perhaps a dozen times a day. 5
Mr. Robbins would revolutionize the whole system of modern house-heating. He would ao away with the furnaces, close stoves and steam pipes, and substitute for them the open fires of a day that is gone. The object of a fire, he argues, is to heat our bodies, not the air. Open radiation warms the objects in the house or room, and from them the air gets all the heat it wants. In the other case the air is heated first, and surrounding objects receive their supply from it.
cvnncthghinseatliibditasieatsilimenuihen What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Boschee’s German Syrup within a few yeare has astonished the world. It is without doubt the safest and best remedy ever discovered for the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs; Colds and the severest Lung treubles. It acts on an entire ly different principle frora the usual prescrip tions given by physicians, as it does not dry up a Cough and leave the disease still in the system, but on the contrary removes the cams of the trouble, heals the parts affected, and leaves them in a purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in the house for use when these diseases make their appearance, will save doc- tor’s bills and along spell of serious illness. A trial will convince you of these facts. It is positively sold by all drugyists and general dealers in the land. Price 75 cents, large bottles.
