The Bishop's Jubilee.

Turk

being also present.

| Under the administration of Bishop Mclutyre great attention has been given ‘to the educatioa of the youth of the Catholic people and to the erection of buildings in which to carry on the work of the Church; and the Bishop’s talent

Catholics of Prince Edward | ¢o, building has found scope. The fol-

[sland will, to-merrow, celebrate with | lowing list comprises 21 charches, 20

enthusiasm the twenty-fifth anniversary | of the consecration of their venerable | Bishop. Thousands will, without doubt, | come to the Jubilee in Charlottetown ; thousands who cavnot come will be in hearty sympathy with the occasion and the ceremony; and all will unite in the hearty congratulations which will be showered upon His Lordship. The event is so unusual and the man so highly esteemed, even by those who differ most widely from the distinctive beliefs of his Church, that readers of Tue Examiner of every class and denomination will, we ere sure be interested in a timely sketch of His) Lordship’s career.

The Right Reverend Peter Melutyre, D. D., Bishep of Charluttetown, was bora at Cable Head, Lot 41, in King’s Couuty, Prince Edward Island, on the Feast of S.S. Peter and Paul, June 29th, 1818. His parents, Angus Mclntyre and Sarah McKinaon, Scotch Highland Catholics, emigrated from Southwest Invernesshire, to this Island, towards the close of the last century. Providence blessed their industry avd integrity ; and they were enabled not only to have “full and plenty” for a large family of sons and daughters, but also to extend the sacred rites of hospitality to all who came in the way. Mr. Melntyre’s house at Cable Head, was one of the principal stations of the late Bishop -‘McEachren in that part of the country— before there was a church at St. Peter's —and little Peter, the Benjamiu of the family, was naturally evough, brought to the notice of the pions and discerning Bishop. The Bishop, it is needless to say, entertained a very high regard for Aygus Mclntyre and his family, and His Lordship insisted that the youngest son, little Peter, should be sent to college to be educated for the Church, Mr. Mc- lutyre was well aware that the proposed undertaking would be exceedingly heavy, at atime when schools were few and means were not easily obtained. Bat, out of respect for the wishes of his Bishop, he generously acted upon the suggestion,and his son Peter was accord- ingly amoug the first students at the opening of old St. Andrew’s College.

After the death of the good Bishop McEachern, in 1835, young MeclIntyre expressed a strong desire to be sent to Canada to pursue his studies. This wish was complied with by his kind father ; and after having studied, during seven or eight years, inthe Colleges of Cham- bly, St. Hyacinth and Quebec, he was promoted to the second order‘ of the Priesthood in 1843, and returned to his native Diocese the same year. We have been told by an old friend of the family that when young Mclotyre first went to college, his father had several long stockings literally crammed with Spanish ‘dollars, and so, wanting the accommodation of banks, the old gentle- man was enabled to promptly make generous remittances to his son and pay the college bills on presentation. The same good friend also tells us that by the time young ‘‘ Father McIntyre” re- turned from Quebec the Spanish dollars were pretty low in the old stocking—but not exhausted! May it not be that the generous manner in which his venerable father furnished him with ample funds until he was able to provide for himself, materially helped to form and develope those generous, hospitable and princely traits of character which we all admire in Bishop Mclatyre ?

The first missionary duties of Father McIntyre were performed as assistant to Father Perry. After a short time, how- ever, he was appointed to the charge of Tignish, Lot 7, the Brae and Cascumpec, with his priccipal residence at Tignish. There he lived and labored for seventeen years ; and it was there that he first gave evidence of his talent for building. The Acadian Freach who form the largest proportion of the Catho- lic congregation at Tignish, were, at that time, neither rich in this world’s goods nor counted enterprising. Yet to them belongs the very great credit of building, under the direction of Father Me!ntyre, the first brick church —if we mistake not, the first public building of brick—ever erected in this Provinee —a church which, at this day, is one of the finest on the Island. In- spired by their enthusiastic priest, the poor French people made the bricks, hauled them to the site, laid the founda- tion,and built the church. They had littie money,but much zeal ; and they were led by a man of rare administrative ability. To the Church at Tignish was added a handsome Parochial house and a fine eonvent, both of brick. A church aad Parochial house were also about the same time built at Brae.

The’ talents and zeal of Father Mc-|

The buildings erected in Charlotte- town, consist of St. Dunstan’s College, (re-built with brick); St. Patrick’s School house, St. Mary’s Convent, St. Joseph’s Convent (now being enlarged) and the Bishop’s Palace.

As a result of the establishment of schools and, colleges, and the active encouragement given by Bishop Mc- intyre to Catholic education, there has been a marked increase in the number of the ‘religious’ engaged ia the Island. When he arrived from Quebec there were on the whole Island only eight Priests; viz. :

Father Perry.

- Francis McDonald. - James McDonald. oe John MeDonald.

+ Beady. “¢ Meville. " Belanger.

™” Reynolds.

It is worthy of remark that the first three ouly of those on the above list are now living. While Father Mclotyre was Priest at Tignish the following were ordained, viz..: :

Father Daniel McDonald. “ Pius McPhee. 6 Charles Boudreault. = James Phelan. ” Thomas Phelan. ” Angus McDonald.

So that at the time he was elevated to the Episcopacy there were but fourteen (14) Priests in the whole I[sland—now there are thirty-seven (37.)

The following is a list of the Priests ordained by Bishop McIntyre, who were educated or partially educated, at the schools established by His Lordship, and in St, Dunstan’s College, rebuilt by him :—

The Liberal Political Demonstra- tion.

*

The Liberal Political Demonstration at Mount Stewart yesterday, though not large- ly attended by people from Ciarlottetown or from the Est, was well patronized by the people of the Third Electoral District of Queen’s County. The Reform Association of Mcunt S‘ewart made extensive prepar- ations for the demonstration, and provided ample facilities for the amusoment and re- creation of all present, such as dancing booths, swings, merry-go-rounds and Grit orators." Those present were divid- ed inte two classes, viz: the deep dyed- in-the-wool Grit who came anxious to ‘* demonstrate,” end the curious Con servative who came to hear the eloquent French Canadian Laurier, the risible Gil- mour, and our own prince of obstructionists Davies. Both made a large gathering; but the show was uot as advertised. Lauri-r ner Gilmore were not present, and the home- spun substitutes did not appear as attractive to the majority as the glib-tongued vendor of prize packages who occupied a stand oprosite the rostrum.

Perhaps the most attractive feature of the demons‘ration was the arrival of the ‘Ship of State.” This was a curious craft, drawn on four wheels, with hull a la Northern Light, having an awning throngh which protruded three short masts. She was called the ‘*L. H. Davies,” and hailed from St. Peter’s Bay. On arrival of the oraters of the day at Mount Stewart, they were taken on board the “Ship,” a salute of two (een Ann guns was fired, and the orators were conveyed tothe picnic grounds amid the martial strains of the bagpipes.

Another pictorial feature of the demon- stration was a cartoon, executed by G. W Miliner, Esq. It represented Uncle Sam standing on a promontory, looking ata P. E. | fisherman sitting idle on the shore. Uncle Sam says, ‘‘Hello! plenty mackerel. Why don’t you fish?’ P. E. J. fisherman reponds, ‘‘A good reason why. Axk the man in the clouds.” The fringe of the clouds are profiles of Sir John’s face. An- other cartoon, by a: Mount Stewart artist attempted to illustrate the injustice of the Franchise Bill. One would need to be rich in imagination to discover what the artist was driving t.

% The speaking commenced at 2 o'clock. Daniel M:Lean, Esq., occupied tho chair,

and the speakers were Francis McQuaid, }

Esq., Dr. McIntyre, M. P., Dr. Robertson, Ex. M. P., Henry Beer, Esq, M.. P. P., L. H. Davies, Esq., M. P., D. Farquharson, M.P.P., Mr. Hooper, M. P. P., A. B. War- burton, Mr. Lea, Tryon, and Mr. McDon- ald, the chairman. The speeches were in the usual style of the Grit erators, They glorified Blake and _ themselves, and damned Sir John and his followers. All their actions were righteous, while those of their opponents were diabolical. None but the great Libsral Party was capable of ruling the destinies of the Do- minion, was their refrain from beginning to end, with few interruptions; and at the conclusion of the orations, the orators dis- persed with an air indicating that the Con- servalive party in the Third District might ‘* consider itself whipped.’’

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

Steamship Damara.

Sir,—Allow me to correct a paragraph in your issue of last evening, emanating from an Ottawa cerrespondent, which is not correct as far as the destination of the steamer is concerned. She is not hound to Montreal, and is on her third and not on her first voyage. She is now on the pas- sage from Havre to Halifax direct, and is appointed to sail from Halifax to Havre on or about the 19th inst., as advertised. If sufficient freight offers for Havre and Lon- don, she may call at this port on the home- ward trip. ‘The information regarding the excursion party may be correct, asshe has a large number of passengers on board from Havre.

Yours truly, Fenton T. Newsery, Agent. Ch'town, Aug. 11. ;

Tue ‘‘Myrtle Navy” brand of smoking tobacco has stood the test for over ten years, and during that time it has lost no friend and gained scores of thousands. This lengthened experience shows that it has no passing fashion which has gained it the ap- proval of the public, but its superiority in essential qualities which makes a first-class tobacco.
