The Fire Last Evening.

A rire was discovered in the stable of Mr. Thomas Campbell, Richmond Street, yesterday evening, at & quarter past SIX o'clock. It originated in the basement and spread rapidly to all parts of the building. in fact five minutes after the alarm was given, the whole stable was ina blaze. <A slicht breeze prevailed at the time This added to the fury of the flames, and the firemen, on _ arrival, were unable to do anything further than prevent other property from being destroyed. As it was the tlames spread from Mr. Camp- bell’s stable to astable 40x14, one story high, owned by Mr. T. Murphy; but, fur- ther than destroying this, the partial burn- ing of another stable owned by Mr.Campbe!l and the scorching of a stable belonging to Mr. J. H. Myrick and a warehouse belong- ing to Mr. Philip Coyle, no serious damage was done.

The building destroyed was, in dimen- sions, 40x30 feet, two stories pitch roof. It contained a quantity of hay, a bagatell board, furniture for nine bedrooms, etc. Mr. Campbell estimates his loss at $1,500. He is insured for $600, in the British American Assurance Co., represent- ed by Mr. A. S. Urquhart. Mr. Murphy’s kas is over $100. The origin of the fire is unknown.

The firemen acted with their usual promptnesa and bravery. The members of Silsby, Tremont, and the Hook and Ladder Co., distinguishing themselves particularly, Rollo, being laid up for repairs, did not attend the fire.

ADDRESS TO REV. THOMAS DUNCAN,

(Edinburgh Evening Express.)

Last night a meeting of the congregation of North Merchiston Church was held for the purpose of making a presentation to the Rev. Thomas Duncan, who has been recently discharging the duties of pastor in the Iron Church at North Merchiston. There was a crowded attendance. The Rev. Dr. McGregor, St. Cuthbert’s, occupied the chair, and amongst others on the platform were the Rev. Dr. Snodgrass, Rev. Mr. Dunean, Rev. Mr. Hart, Mr. John Camp- bell, W. S., Mr. David Mein, chairman of the Testimonia: Committee, and the mem- bers uf committee. After devotional exer- cises, in which prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr. Hart

Mr. David Mein read an address from the members and adherents of the congre- gation, acknowledging Mr. Duncan’s effi- cient services during the past fifteen months. Along with the address a silk parse containing 65 sovereigns was present- ed to Mr. Duncan, and a handsome silver water jug to Mrs. Duncan. The address, which was signed on behalf of the congre- gation by Dr. MacGregor and Mr. Mein, concluded by expressing the best wishes for Mr. and Mrs. Duncan and their family.

Dr. MacGregor, in making the presenta- tion, said that he had Leen acquainted with Mr. Doncan for thirty-seven years. They s ight years together at the same uni- versity, haying entered it, and he believed left it too, on the same day. By the same Presbytery on 15th May, 1855, they were both licensed to preach. During all that time Mr. Duncan bore a high character for ability and a blameless tife. Mr. Duncan became a minister of Charlottetown, where he was fer many years a leading and influential

minister. Upon Mr. Duncan coming to this country he renewed his acquaintance with him and his

amiable and estimable wife, and in his intercourse with Mr. Duncan he had al- ways came away with the impression that he had been in the presence of a sagacions, accomplished, and deeply pious man. (Ap- plause.) Mr. Duncan would be a blessing wherever his lot was cast, and he hoped the Church of his fathers might not lose his services. (Applause.) In the course of further remarks Dr. McGregor mentioned that the new church at North Merchiston would bear the name of St. Michael. (Applause. )

Rev. Mr. Dancan, in reply, thanked the congregatiou for their kindness, and said the days he had spent amongst them had been exceedingly interesting and pleasant. He felt that they had given him their hearts from the moment he entered into their midst, and there was not a single house to which he had gone where he had not always had a most hearty welcome. (Applause.) In parting he wished to say his memories of the past few months were pleasant and profitable from their kindness to him, and the spirit of earnest co-oper- ation with which so many of them very emphatically came forward and assisted him with their counsels, prayers, and active co- operation in the work of the congregation. (Applause.) He then spoke of the Band of Hope which had been formed recently in connection with the Church, and said he hal no doubt that under the new ministry of Mr. Wilson their temperance organi- zations would expand to a large extent. (Applause. )

The Rev. Mr. Snodgrass, whom Mr. Duncan succeeded at Charlottetown, after wards addressed the meeting.

During the evening the proceedings were varied with sacred music, supplied with ex- cellent taste by the choir, accompanied by the harmonium, and Mrs. Wilson gave a beautiful rendering of the solo ‘‘Angels ever bright and fair.”

A speaker at one of the Chautauqua gath- erings suggested that the study of literature begin in the third year of the school course and he systematically pursued. It might be as follows: “Let the third be the Whittier year; the fourth, Longfellow; the fifth, Irving and Bryant; the sixth, Tenny- son and Dickens; the seventh, historical; the eighth, patriotic; while in the High School, the earlier English writers, with Milton and Shakespeare.” He would have the course pursued under a syllabus pre- pared by the superintendent and school beard, and examinations regularly given, Worthy of thought.—Jowrnal of Educa-

tion,

How science has multiplied the ties of human brotherhood! A sharp word speken by a statesman in Europe indicating {the possibility of a war between France and China, comes under the sea by wire and lifts the price of wheat in Chicago a cent a bushel.

The Tank on Queen Square.

Sik,—Some months ago a petition was signed by nearly all the taxpayers doing business around and in the vicinity of Queen Square, asking the City Council to have the defective tank on that Square either ‘‘repaired or rebuilt to hold water for fire purposes.’’ The Council, not wish- ing to lay the petition on the table, referred it to a committee, and the last enquiry made in reference to the tank elicited the reply that bricks wers too scarce and high in price to build a tank with. Now, Sir, we who signed that petition would like to have some better reason given than the scarcity or price of bricks for not having this matter attended to, we pay the largest proportion of the city taxes, and if we ask for a better supply of water as a means of protecting not only our own but all other property im the vicinity of the Square have a right to have our request granted. Ifthe wind had blown hard last evening when the fire broke out in the rear of Mr. Campbell's, how far would one tank of water have gone towards extinguishing the fire? We cannot always depend on having calm weather when a fire happens, and hope that the City Council will wake up to the necessity of not only having a better supply of water available in case of fire, but also have some arrangement made so that the water can be kept hot in the boilers of the Steam Engines and not have them standing around waiting for steam to get up before any water can be thrown on a fire.

Yours respectfully, PETITIONER. Charlottetown, Nov. 21, 1883.

Hickey’s Wharf Notes.

Hickey’s Wharf has had a very flourish- ing business done at it this fall. Although market rates were low and business con- fined to a few, yet the general tendancy of the whole was satisfactory, and those en- gaged seemed to have a lively and continu- ous vent for produce. The different samp- les for market were of geod quality, well assorted, and the returns prompt and satis- factory. Tho farmers were blessed with a good crop wel!-saved, and now, through the enterprise and courage of a few resident traders and speculators, and the patrunage of some of the leading shipping firms of Charlottetown, and Mr. Bovyer of South- port, they have disposed of the bulk of their oats and part of their potatoes and turnips. Local industry should be encouraged and congratulated. Messrs. Cummiskey, Mac- Nally and Trainor are live men in a com- munity. We wish them all the success which their «nergy so well deserves.

The wharf is in need of some repair. The end next the channel is pretty shakey after the butting and battering the steamer ‘Southport’ gave it during the summer. It would be well for the Local and Domin- ion Governments to agree as to which of them it does belong. If neglected it may be moving in the spring. The river should be provided in summer with a more snit- able steamer, and not be encumbered with an excuse suited for nothing only demolish- ing wharves. There is no use in the Local Government saying they have no suitable boat. Let them offer to lease the exclusive right of running the river for twenty or twenty-five years. The present term is too short to induce any company to put a good boat on the route. She should run from Charluttetown to Mount Stewart twice a week ~Tuesdays and Fridays. It must be admitted that the officers of the ‘South- port” are very courteous and accommoedat- ing; but she is totally unsuited to give the public general satisfaction. We want some- thing better.

Mr. J. H. Cummiskey is doing a good mercantile business at Webster's Corner. He has a beautiful new mansion almost completed.

We wish Tue Examine success, and our thanks for keeping its patrons posted in the local and foreign market rates.-—Com.,

Military Matters.

Machine guns is the field are now en- tirely abandoned. The French Mitrail- leuse, from which such wonders were ex- pected, was as heavy as a field gun and re- quired six horses to draw it. Its range was practically the same as that of infantry, and had its disadvantages. If the range was correct and the mark remained steady, great execution was done, but the slightest error would throw every bullet out, unless at short range. Both French and Germans have given up machine guns for the field, and have increased atid developed their field artillery. They both admit that the machine guns cannot face field artillery at artillery ranges, and that its projectiles have no power whatever against walls or buildings or earthworks; but they believe when two hostile bodies of infantry are closing. the machine guns may be brought from cover, in which they should be kept till then, and may then exercise great in- fluence on the result.

In a recent discourse Rev. Henry Ward Beecher remarked that the evils of intem- perance surpassed all other evils put to- gether, but he thought their immediate ex- tinction impossible.

There is sometimes a great deal in luck, whatever the moralists may say. For ex- ample, of the ships which this year went all the way to the Arctic to catch whales, several had at last reports secured but one whale apiece and others none, while, on the other hand, a little schooner goes out to the Farallones, scareely out of the sight of San Francisco, and after eruising around six weeks, returns with 300 barrels of oil.

A letter written by Andrew Jackson has been found at Trenton, New Jersey, in which he declines Commodore Elliott's offer of a Roman sarcophagos, Jackson says: *‘I cannot consent that my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an emperor or a king.

Every monument erected to perpetuate the mem- ory of our heroes and statesmen ought to bear evidence of the economy and simplic- ity of our Republican institutions and the plainness of our Republican citizens, who are sovereigns of opr glorious union, and whose virtue is to perpetuate it,”

The real reason, says London Truth, why Cardinal Manning as well as so many dis- tiuguished prelates from other countries have been called to Rome, is that Leo XIII. wants to confer with them, in an -informal manner, as to the best manner of ruling éheir respective churches, and yet remaining on good terms with the different Govern- ments under which they live. The present Pope is utterly unlike Pius TX. The latter seemed to think that the more animosity that existed between the Church and the secular authorities of all lands, the more credit there was forthe former. His sue- cessor is persuaded that the Church ought to assist the State as to ail matters in which her moralinfluence can do any good,

A noticeable feature of social agitation in Lower Canada is the determined stand which the Roman Catholic clergy, French and English speaking, are making against the use of strong drink.

The Rev. C. B. Pitblado, in his thanks- giving sermon, at Winnipeg, said: ‘‘If commercjal depression teaches men lessons of caution in their dealings, of economy in their way of living, of honesty in their business transactions, they accomplish a beneficent purpose in secial economy. We are reminded that the ‘boom’ is over. The fever of excitement is gone, and the de- pression of re-action has come, Lots have lost their value and buyers are without their money. Wellit is a good thing that though the eastles in the air have been demolished, the solld Jand remains, though fictitious values have fallen, real worth is not impaired: - Honest work and skillful farming will survive tle faver of wild specu- lation. The sickness of intoxication is not a premonition of death but the signs of re- turning health—for that we can be thank- ful.”
