| Address Presented to the Vener-
able Archdeacon Read by the Diocesan Church Society.
At aspecial meeting of the Executive Committze of the Diecesan Church Societ of Prince Edward Island, held in St. Paul’s Schoolroom, on Monday, 17th June, 1878,
it} was resolved wnanimously—
‘* That in prospect of the departure of the Venerable the Archdeacon—J. Herbert Read, D. D.—from this Province at an early day, that the Rev. Alfred Osborne, T. B. Reagh, and Mr. H. J. Cundall, be a Committee to draw up a suitable address on the occasion, and that the said Committee, with Messrs. John Ings, Thomas DesBris- say, and R. R. Hodgson be a deputation to present the same to the Archdeacon on be- half of this Executive Committee.
(True extract. ) WitiiaM C, Dessrisay, Asst. Secretary D. C. S. (iarLorrrrown, F. E. Island, June 2ist, 1878.
To the Venerable J. Herberi Read, D. D., Archdeacon of Prince Edward Island, and a Vice-President of the Diocesan Church Society.
VENERABLE AND Dear Sir,-——-We, the Ex- ecutive Committee of the Diocesan Church Society, hearing of your intended departure for England at an early day, beg to record our sincere regret that domestic affliction has ren dered it necessary that yon should, for a time at least, be absent from our midst.
The committee not only fully appreciate the personal care and attention which you in your position as a member of the committee, and as one of the Vice Presidents, have always be- stowed upon the business of the Society; but we also recognize your earnest and unremitting endeavors to forward the work of the Church of England in this Province.
Your long and arduous Missionary services, extending over a period of more than thirty- five years—many of them speut amid priva- tions and discomforts unknown to these later days of pastoral work—have earned for you the esteem and affection of all persons with whom you have been associated. Your inva- riable success bears evidence of your self-deny- ing zeal and energy in the Master’s work ; and we are satisfied there are many witnesses to the benefit of your faithful ministration,
The Committee, moreover, freely testify that your interest in the affairs of the Church has not been limited to your own parish, but has been cordially extended to the other par- ishes in your Archdeaconry.
Permit us, dear sir, to express our sympathy with you and Mrs. Read in her affliction, and we trust the visit to your native land may be beneficial oe se, and apt, Res bisesing of Almigh ou ; restored to in want health nd vigor. i ”

The deputation, accompanied by F. L. Haszard, Esq., waited upon the Archdeacon at 12.30 p. m., on the 21st inst. On the presentation of the Address the Venerable Archdeacon made a most feeling reply. He thanked the Committee of the ‘‘D. C. S.,” through the deputation, for the kind ex- pressions contained in the address,—spoke of his long residence in this Province, and the grief to him to sever friendships of so long standing. He wished success to the “DPD. C.S.,” and hoped the Commitie2 wovli ever be faithful to the doctrines and prin- ciples of the Church of England.

Tuer New York ‘‘ Herald” is being pretty well laughed at for a mistake it has fallen into through the hasty acceptance of what it feigns to consider as news. It appears that on the day of the October elections the ‘* Herald” published a very lengthy cable special, giving the views of, the principal
liticians and editors of Paris. The fol- owing month the Figaro reproduced these interviews, at the same time giving the ‘* Herald” great credit for having this cable special,—made a fortnight previously, and sent by steamer. There was one mistake, however, the Figaro made. The ‘‘Herald’s” cable special gave, with other information, the presumed circulation of the different Parisian papers. Some of them very much under the mark, and when the Figaro re- published this, it made them angry. . The Univers instituted a suit for damages agai it. In the evidence it came out that the ‘ cable special” was sent by a reporter of the Figaro, and the several of the gentle- men whom he professed to have interviewed would not even admit him to their offices, and the opinions credited to them were simply the products of his imagination, based on the reading of their papers. The
Figaro has been compelled to pay damages to the Univers, and to print the decision of ‘the court on its first pages as a brand, while ‘in the aninds of many, heretofore faithful |in the reliance placed upon the ‘* Herald’s” ‘cable specials, has been shaken.

The London Figaro says “‘ Signor Runcio’ is a handsome man, and many opera goers thought on Saturday a lucky man. At any rate, a young and good looking testor has rarely received so many kisses as Alfredo did on the stage of her Majesty’s Theatre. The Princess of Wales shook with laughter, but Miss Minnie Hauck, like a, true artist, would not give in hugging her stage lever again and again, until Alfredo, fairly out of breath, ran away. . Zare who was sittirig in Titiens’ old box, clapped her hands in girlish delight; and -Mr, Mapleson has received due notice from three ‘ first tenors’ that unless each is per- mitted to play Fanst to the young Ameri- can lady’s Marguerite, he will be expected to choose between swords and pistols.”

Recently, when presiding at one of those cookery lessons which are now oan fashionable in England, Mr. Gladstone: this story :—Somebody, travelling in_ the United States, saw in a hotel yard a heap of ox tails, all thrown away as refuse. The ex-Premier at first looked upon this as an- other proof of how wasteful the American people are, but afterwards he heard the ex- planation. Throwing away ox-tails, as useless is an old English habit, » which the first emigrants to America took with them long ago. But at the time of the French Revolution many refugees from over the Channel came to England, and in
their saving, methedical way, taught the English the value of ox tail soup. t the
Americans, not having learned this leason, continued the old English custom of throw- ing away the tails. Some of the newspaper critics challenge the accuracy of Mr. Glad- stone’s statement of facts, and it would not be surprising were a controversy on the sub. ject to arise,
for the States bet weesi‘the -
