Tue Day EXAMINER,

JUNE 28, 1878.

City Schools.

Severat of the examiners have sent THE ExaMINeRr notes of their observations yes- terday. We should be greatly pleased to

> receive such ‘“‘notes” from the remaining * examiners before we publish those at hand. it is but right that al/ the teachers should receive the credit or discredit which is just- ly their due. Besides, the people of Char- lottetown have a right to know who among the teachers have given satisfaction to the examiners. The ‘‘ mass meetings” at Upper Prince Street School and at St. Patrick’s Hall were interesting ; but they would have been

" still more so, had each examiner given a short statement of the impressions he received - at the examination of the schools in which

: he sat.

Death of the Queen of Spain.

Tue Queen of Spain died on the 26th. She was unconscious when she _ died. The Standard’s Madrid correspondent, tele- graphing before the death of Queen Mer- cedes, says: ‘‘ The King and members of the royal family are assembled around the _Queen’s bed. The ministers were sum- -moned to the Palace early this morning, and in the Foreign Office all the chiefs of the diplomatic corps are assembled. The Palace gates are closed, and the immense crowds outside the gates are kept back by guards. The scene is most impressive.

An Unconstutional Course.

That Mr. McKenzie intends to hang on to office until the last moment and resort to questionable means to secure victory at the polls, is evidenced by the conduct of his lieutenants in Quebee and British Colum- bia. In Quebec M. Joly, with a vote of want of confidence on the constutional question staring him in the face, proposes, with Lieutenant Governor de St. Just’s help, to conduct the affairs of the Province at least until the Dominion elections; and Mr. Elliott, in British Columbia, although she himself as Premier has been beaten, and although he admits that he is in a minority of nine in a House of five and twenty, sticks tothe fleshpots and the distribution of patronage, and what is more, intends to _stick there until his friend Mr. McKenzie is served in the Dominion contest.

. Inthe days of old, Reformers counted the Premier a traitor who for a day after his Government had been condemned, stood in the way of the Opposition succeeding him.— Mail. a —-_ — 000 oC Rusty Rails.

_ We have had sent us from Kingston a gmall box-full of rust from Mr. McKenzie’s steel rails, which have for so long found

ent on the docks of the Limestone City. The oxidation must be very serious, for some of the rust is in large flakes, and from a sixteenth to an eighth of an inch in thickness. Ocular demonstration of Mr. Mackenzie’s admirable business habits and honesty of purpose !—T'oronto Mail. ag —_——

ee eeinaliieated

The Convent De Notre Dame.

Tre classes of this excellent institution were examined on Monday and Tuesday, the 17th and 18th inst. The examination was not a public one. Only His Lordship Bishop McIntyre, a number of the clergy and the Editor of the //era/d were present. The Herald, commenting on the result of ‘“The excellence in teaching for which this institution has, in past years, been noted, was fully main- tained. The young ladies acquitted them- selves excellently. Careful teaching and careful application, could alone bring about the excellent results which were witnessed, As is well-known, the course of studies in this Institution is extensive, and embraces

some very high branches. All diffi- culties had, however, been well mastered, and a well grounded

knowledge secured in every department. The distribution of honors took place at the Convent on Wednesday. As will be seen by the list following, the pupils have re- ceived but the honors from their course— no prizes being awarded. To account for this we clip the following from the /erald, which tells of a noble act of self-sacrifice and charity which was performed by the young ladies of this Institution : ‘‘ Know- ing that His Lordship Bishop McIntyre was collecting funds for the establishment of a hospital, they generously asked that the worth of their prizes should be handed over to His Lordship te aid him in his be- neficent purpose. A handsome sum of money, with a beautiful address, was, in consequence, presented to the Bishop on Monday evening, the 17th inst. No words of ours could adorn an act in itself so beau- tiful. It deserves to be long remembered, as we are sure it will be to the credit of the young ladies.” Third Division of Second Class.

Tue Hisernica.—Healy’s Hibernica will commence a two nights’ engagement at Market Hall. Speaking of the entertain- ments, the Savannah Sunday Telegram says: ‘‘Healy’s Hibernian Minstrels gave their second performance yesterday afternoon to a tremendous house, as was anticipated; and, of course, the little ones were de- lighted, while the older ones were enter- tained. Last night they were again greeted by a large audience, an excellent Saturday night house, and presented an entirely new programme. The sketches of German life and the ‘‘Farewell to Fanderland,” by Miss Mary Ten Broeck and Mr. J. E. Hanshaw, were received with the heartiest applause. Bryan O’Lynn excelled his previous efforts, and Henshaw with his banjo brought down the house. Messrs. Morrissy, Nora and Barney contributed materially to the pleas- ures of the entertainment, and were com- plimented with encores. Everybody seemed pleased, if the enthusiasm of plaudits be taken as a criterion, and this approval should he taken as the mest favorable of criticisms.” The Company will arrive by boat from Pictou this evening, and parade | to the Hall. Matinee on-Saturday, at 2.

o'clock. Admission 25 cents ; children, 10’ cents,

ence aa

of prizes took place at the above named in- stitution on Thursday, the 27th inst. Sev- eral classes were examined in Classics and Mathematics, all of which acquitted them- selves very creditably. Some very interest- ing experiments were performed by the class of Natural Philosophy. The exercises were interspersed with music and some reci- tations in English and Latin excellently ren- dered. There was a great number of the clergy and laity present, who seemed to be highly pleased with the manner in which the various parts of the programme were carried out. After highly congratula- tory addresses by some of the clergy all joined in singing ‘God Save the Queen, and then all dispersed, highly delighted with the afternoon’s entertainment.
