FELL pown THE HatcHway.—Last Thurs- day, Antoine Dares, of Schooner Coronet, of Lunenburg, N. 8., accidently fell down the vessel’s hatchway, sersously injuring himself. The vessel at the time was about thirty miles from lard. The captain took the injured man to Souris, where he was landed, and is now recovering. The Coronet has been on a codfishing voyage to the Grand Banks and other fishing grounds and reports having caught no fish. Some of the codfishers have done fairly well, while others have had poor luck.

Burren Asproap.—The Amherst Record announces that A. Wilson, of Pugwash, has received an order for a shipment of Cumber- land butter to Hamburg, Germany. It is to be put up in hardwood packages of from 300 to 350 pounds. It is also stated that if the butter prove satisfactory, shipments can be made to the same house every month. The Sun says it would be gratifying to learn that butter from these provinces could be extensively and profitably shipped in foreign markets. It would be still more gratifying if we could supply our own market with butter of good quality. There is ample room for activity in both these directions.

Apvvice To Moruers.—Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup has been used by mothers for children teething for over fifty years with perfect success It re- lieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as “bright as a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu- lates the bowels and is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle. apll8' Ad yendwkyly

— The following instructions have been received from Rome by His Lordship the Bishop of Charlottetown :—

As the Feast of the glorious Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary this year falls on Friday, His Holiness Leo XIII., by Divine

Providence, Pope, grants to the faithful of every part of the world the use of fiesh meat on this day. His Holiness, however, much desires that the faithful endeavor to compen- sate for this privilege by reciting once, for his intention, the third part of the Rosary.”

Beware of John Bull.

(N. ¥. Tribune.)

While backing up his piracy in Behring Sea with a fleet in Puget Sound, John Bull steals a march on us right here on the Atlantic coast, aud, with supreme audacity, closeto Mr. Blaine’s back door. ‘The Bangor News declares that after long hegotiations the Isles of Shoals are to pass into the control of a British syndicate, which has finally agreed to pay the Laigh- ton’s price, $500,000. Until he can get the Portsmouth Navy Yard fixed up in decent shape, Secretary Tracy might send the Squadron of Evolution up to Appledore and Smuttynose, to keep an eye on the invader. Talk about Halifax and Ber-

; 7 ¥ ' | to obey orders and demanded of the Cap- |

tain to be sent home to the United States, | alleging as a reason for their demand that | the vessel was leaky and unseaworthy. The Consular Agent at that port, C. C., Carle- ton, Esq., was applied and took the matter in hand. A _ survey was held by John McLean, Esq., Port Warden, J. D. Lavie, master mariner, and Angus Me- Phee, ship carpenter. They reported the vessel to be in fair condition, sails in good order, running rigging good, chains, anchors and hawsers good—in short everything in and about said vessel in a perfectly sea- worthy condition. In the meantime Consul George, of this city, was sent for and ar- rived upon the scene by evening train. The vessel, by latest accounts, is still at Souris. The crew has left her. The Captain ap- pears to be a very decent man and intends running back to Canso if he can get a sufficient number of his crew to come back to work the vessel. He has no license, which makes it allthe harder for him to manage in his present predicament.
