An Address of Condolence.

Tue Legislature of this Province have appropriately drawn up an address of condo! e for the lamented death oft H R il Pr i Cé Li sop I cE to be presented to Her Majesty the Queen. It is well} written and expresses sympathy which al! oyal subje ts in this Province feel for the R val Family in this. their sad bereavement. The latest

accident referred to in the address, |

which | nted His Royal Highness | from visitio y Prince i iward Island, | occurred while he was fishing at Meti-| phedia. It requn 1 great medical skill} i to carry him through, aud necessitated | his immediate return to E iglaad. Fol- | lowing ia the Address: ; me

of Lords. Not satisfied with his con- temptible treatmeut of poor Chaisson, |

. ' which is reckoned to be ove of the}

ugliest pieces of political chicanery ever | perpetrated in the Province, he is now} endeavoring trump up a_ charge! against oue of the Executive Councillors. A few days ago he moved tha} a statement of the expenses of the Com- missioner ef Public Works—Hon. Campbell—be laid on the table of the House of Lords. ‘The statement was furnished aud was, we believe, pro- nounced satisfactory. Bat Mr. Rogers, unlike other members of the Lords and of the Assembly, would not keep within the bounds of decency, He demanded that the vouchers coutainiog every item of Mr. Campbell’s travelling expenses be produced forthwith. How like the man. We are aware the Grit party iu this Province and in the Dominion can boast of a number of men who are capable of stooping to any meanness, but that that party can produce one who would descend so low as Mr. Benjamin Rogers, we entertain most serious doubts. As might be expected, Mr. Campbell re- fused to place his vouchers in the hands of a body of men to whom he was noi directly responsible, and who might, if they choose, mutilate or even burn them. Mr. Bentley, hewever, moved that they be laid on the table of the House of Assembly, and Mr. Campbell according- ly submitted them to that body. But Mr. Rogers would not stop here. At the head of a posse of Lords he waited upon the Lieutenant Governor, and pre- sented him with aa address, asking that Mr. Campbell! be compelled to submit his vouchers to the Council. It is needless to say that he was refused, or, we might well say, snubbed, for his impudence. Meaowhile, the vouchers lay on the table of the Assembly, while Mr. Rogers poses in his divan in the Council Chamber as} the “Lord of Small Things.”

The hired help engeged on the dairy farms of the country costs $168,000,000, or an average price of $20 a month per capita. Theannual yield of the average cow is placed at 450 gallons, making the total milk product 6,750.000,090 The farmers’ receipts fer this at 12 cents a gallon, 810,000,000. Cheese and

The comparative nutritive quantities of milk are as three and one-balf pounds to one pound of prime beef. A fat steer furnishes 50 per cent, of boneless beef, but it would require about 24.000,C00 steers, weighing 1,500 pounds each, to produce the same amount of nui- trition as the 15,000,000 cows supply with their aunual yield of milk.—Shipping List.

The liquidators of the Exchange Bauk of Montreal, ask from the stockholders, under the doable liability clause, a contri bution equal to twenty per cent. of their stock. Thisis the first practical test to which the liability of shareholders for twice the amount of their stock has been put; and it will be interesting to notice how it

for the result will give some idea of its value as a rezource, when aesets fall short of liabilities. Had the bank, in iis own name, apy stock, on which it made illegal advances }
