EAST PRINCE.

Anovr two years ago Hon. JohnYeo was elected the representative of East Prince in the House of Commons. He accepted the duty. But now, three years before his term is up, be has been appointed to the Senate, and has left the Commons without saying’ to the people so much as ‘*by your leave,’ The sturdy Brit sh idea of ‘‘duty” seems to vanished in the thin air of this ours. Morethan that, there seems to be among the Liberals, asa party,

an elmost total disregard for principle. So late as 1895 it was laid down as a Liberal

‘principle that the appointment of a mem-

ber of the House of Commons to an office is an abuse that ought not to be tolerated. It was declared that “it destroys the indes pendence of Parliameut and the usfulness of the representatives of the people.” The the raised over this brought them a good many But in the short space of a little more than two years,

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—A Bathurst deepaich estates that ‘the lobster fishery commission met at Mes Nally’s hotel, Shippegan, on Friday last, the 15th inst. Several experts from Ottawa were present.” So the public money is being frittered] away on government favorites and politicians who have the pui). The lobster commission is a costly farce.

—The total corn crop ofthe United States for the current year is 1,926,000,- 000 bushels, against 1,902,600,000 in 1897, an increase of 24,000,000 bushels. Forthe purpose of estimating the wealth of this product the bushel of corn may be eefima- ted to be worth forty cents. This would make a corn product of the value ef $770,- 100,000, There has been a great increase in thecorn product of such States as Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky, Virginia. In fact it may be stated ina geners| way that the corn crop in fourteen States of the south and southwest increased over one hundred millions of bushels; in other States which raise considerable corn the product decreased.

THANKSGIVING IN THE WEST.

ce

The Methodist church at Alberton, was well filled at the service held on the even- ing of Thanksgiving Day, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Jobn Goldsmith. The programme, ®& somewhat lengthy and varied one, was very effectively carried out and evidently interested the congregation who responded with a liberal collection.

After devotional! exercises “ The song of the Fruits” was very nicely given by six little girle, Winnie Weeks, Jessie Weeks,

Rhoda Gard, Annie Metherall, Beseie Wilkinson = and Annie Bell ; " solo appropriate to the occasion

and given by Mr M R Leard, leader of the choir, choir, was greatly enjoyed by the audience. A duet was given by Misees Rettie Leard and Bessie Gard, and was highly appreciated. An exercis? entitled “The Song of the Grain” was given by the Mieses Blanch Leard, Florrie Bell and Carrie Leard. The recitations in tbis exercice were interspersed by singing by the choir, aud were extremely interesting. A recitation, “Deacon Campbell’s Dream,” wae effectively given by Miss Hattie Chap- pll. The anthem, “The Earth is the Lord’s,” was finely rendered by the choir

The pastor then gave a lantern service on “30 Great Salvation,” using as illustrations a number of very fine views and throwing passages of ecripture and bymns upon the scrien. .

In spite of the unfavoratle weather and the exceptionally bad state of the roads, there was a large aud evidently interested congregation present, and a substantial collection was taken up.

On Friday evening, Nov. 25:h, the pass tor repeated the lantern service at West Devon, another of the churches on the Alberton circuit, Here, too, a large con-~ gregation had gathered, and paid the closest attention while the pastor spoke from and illustrated the passage, “How shall we escape if we neglect so great salyation ? ”

At the close of this service a chapter of the Koworth League was organized :

Hon. President— Rev John Goldsmith.

President—Mr Hy Ritchey.

Sec’v—Bepjamin Deacon.

—President Sch urman, in his recen address at the opening of the fall semester at Cornel! University, makes the statemeut that the age of freshmen at entrance has been fa'ling continuously for three years, although the standard of requirements for admission was at the same time continu - ously rising. “The average age of Cor- nell freshmen was nineteen years and eleven months in 185-96, nineteen years and eight months in 1896-97, and nine- teen years and ssven months in 1897-98. This seems to show,” continues Dr. Schurs man, “that the high schouls of the coun~ try are quite rapidly increasing in effi ciency.” It would be interesting and valuable to know also the relative physi- cal condition of these youihs compared with their predezessors,
