A peTacument of No. 2 Battery, Char lottetown Garrison Artillery, on Monday last, in presence of alarge oumber ef spectators, competed, in shifting ordenance competi- tion, for prises offered by the Dominion Artillery Association. Col. Beer, command- ing the 82nd Battalion, acted as umpire—the Brigade Major being absent on duty connect- ed with the Military School in Nt. John. On Col. Beer arriving at the Shed, the de- tachment were in the position of detachment rear—Capt. Irving acting as No. 1. The detachment then took position and, after a couple of preliminary trials, the word ‘‘ go was given, and the gunuere sprang to their work, and it was surprising to see how quickly the gan was raised out of the trunnion -holes, taken down one side on skids, then removed to the other side, and remounted again.—The whole being done in two minutes and eighteen seconds, Surgeon Creamer, 82nd Battalion, acted as time-keeper. The stores used, con- sisted of :—T'wo long skids, 20 ft. x 8 in. x 8 in; two parbuckle ropes ; two 3 ft. x6 in x 9 in. short skids ; two 3 ft x4 in, x 4 in; eight scotches ; eight handspikes ; two dragropes.

FatHerR Henny Ceoixerines, brother of the Lord Chief Justice of the English Common Pleas, has just been named rector of the Jesuit church in Farm street, Berkeley square London. It is curious to note, says the London Truth, what a large preportion of Roman Catholic priests who were once clergymen in the Church of England make their way to the front in their new communion, Father Cole- ridge was many years ago a fellow of Balliol, but went over to Rome after he had taken deacon’s orders.

Wuep the departure of the ex-Mayor of St. John was first made public, it was quietly whispered by knowing ones that there was a woman in the case. It is now the common talk that on previous visits to Boston he was accompanied by a charming young widow, and she left for that city a few days previous to his final departure. It is also said that the indebtedness which harrassed him was not the result of unprofitable business trans- actions, nor losses by the fire as first supposed, but rather of personal expenditures not shared by his wife and family. The first burst of aympathy has subsided and his friends now see him in a new light.

a kind of slip knot, which becomes more of a knot the more you pull en it. This is fully illustrated by a fact which has recently come to our knowledge. ‘‘ When I first came here,” said a farmer, ‘‘I told my wife I wanted to be rich. She said she didn’t want to be rich; she only wanted enough to make her comfortable. I went to work, and now, after forty years, 1 have become rich— rich as I want to be. My ohildren are all married and I have given chem each a large farm, and I’ve enough left to satisfy all reasonable wants; but,” and here he lewered his voice to almost a whisper, ‘‘ my wife ain't comfortable yet,”

Tus mother of Coriolanus and other women saved Roime; the Irish women have endeav- ered to make history repeat iteelf. When the Land League was proclaimed through Ire- land, the women at once stepped into the vacant places and continued the League work. A special commissioner in [rejland, in his letter, describes the Ladies’ Land League. The headquarters are at Dublin. The office is open during regular hours; the words ‘Land League " are seen in very small letters op a brass plate underneath the street bell. The number of lady clerks employed is usually three or four, and the work goes on, seldom disturbed by the police. This organization aumbers a hundred members; it has already about 500 branches through Ireland, and new branches are being formed at the rate of eight or tena week. The ehief work falls upon Miss Anna Parnell, who in her zeal reminds one of Flora Maclvor, the sister of the ill-fated High-

land chieftain, in Waverley.

MORE LIGHT |

rQvHE Charlottetown Gas Light Company

have imported some of “Bray's Buangrs,” which they will supply and fit on \Gas Brackets, etc., at a moderate Cost to consumers.

These Burners are reported to be the best Flat Flame Burner vet produced, and will give a far greater amount of light than any other Burner -with the same consumption of Gas.

Dr, Wallace, F. B. 5. E., F. C. S., Gas Examiner to the City of Glasgow, in a lectnre delivered by him, calculated that £130,000 ($650,000) a year, are thrown away in Glas- gow by the use of imperfect fittings. On the subject of Gas Burners he says: “ Another and as I think a better Burner is chat called Bray’s regulator, aid as I consider these the best unien Burners-attainable at moderate cost, I have selected them for a series of ex-

erfments,”

The Keport of the Committee of the British

best means forthe developmen: of light rrom Coal Gas of different qualities—comprising Dr. William Wallace, Professor Dittmar, and Mr, Thomas Wills, F. C.5,, F. 1. C. I., showed that Bray’s Burners yielded the great gt amount of light of all the two or three score of Burners reported upon. which included all the Burners of repute in the market,

In a pamphlet upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R. B. Taber, A, M.. be says: “ The cost of Gas as compared with other illumin- antsis much more economical when rightly used, than many suppose. From experiments made for this purpose. the following results have been obtained. They were made by burning samples of Devoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their illuminating | power, It was found that Coal Gas costing lone cent at ¢3 per thousand feet, gave a ght equal to 18 candles, while Devoe’s Brilliant Oil consuming 27.4 grammes cost- ing halfa cent, gave a light equal to 9 candies,

“A good Argand or Johnson's Burner, the 3urner’s used in the last experiment, will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oil Burners in direct Comparison, at no greater expense in the cas: of the finer and safer grades of Oil, Lights,however, on the author. ity of Scientists, are not to be compared in direct proportion, but in proportion to the squares of their powers, and such a com- parison with the case of the use of Gas, its cleanliness, freedom from odor and dangers, renders its use desirable wherever it can be ntroduced.”

As the above experiments were made with Gas at $3 per 1000 feet, and not consumed through Bray’s Burners, it will readily be seen how much more economical it is to con- sume Gas instead of Oil, when its price is only $2.63 per 10.6 feet as now charged here when consumed, more especially through Bray’s Burners.

Messrs, Goodwin & Co., of Philadelphia, the well-known manufacturers of Scientific in- struments for testing the illuminating power of Coal Gas, etc., say in their Circalar to Gag Compauies : “In presenting the Bray’s Stand- ard Patent Slit Union Burners and Lanterns, for which we are the Agents in the United states, to the attention of the public, we are convinced that we are filling a want long felt.’ They further add: ** The yield of light from these Burners is 12 to 20 per cent, greater per cubic foot of Gas consumed than that from any flat dame Berner hitherto in- trodnced., fno 4 cod

NOTICE,

T having been brought to the notice of the Directors of the Gas Light Company that there were persons desirous of consum- ing gas, who were occupying stores and dwellings unprovided with the requisite fittings, the Board have resolved that in euch cases the Company will bear the first of putting in the necessary pipes. &c. Persons desirous of becoming consumers of gas can employ any fitter they choose, and having certified the bill as correct, the Com- pany will pay the same; the consumers re- inbursing the Company by twelve equal in- stalments, payable monthly.

That all consumers may participate in the great advantage of using Bray’s Patent Burn- ers, which, with the same consumption of gas, will zive twenty per cent. more light than other Barners, the Company will supply them at the nominal sum of ten cents cach,
