A Srrance Casz.—The St. John Telegraph says: A strange case was brought to light recently—that of a girl 25 years of age, born and brought up in the city, who had not been inside any place of worship. She is now in the employ of a city clergyman and shows every disposition to improve her new oppor- tunities. Hers is the old story of a household degraded by drink.

3eTTER THAN Ever.—lIt did seem as though the seedsmen outdid themselves last year in the line of elaborate catalogues, but here comes Vick’s F.oral Guide for,1889, from Ro- chester, N. Y¥., better than all previous issues. ** Better” hardly expresees it—rather, we should say, far superior. It has been changed in every respect: pew cuts, new type, en larged in size (opening like an old-fashioned singing book); containg three elegant litho- graphs (8x10} inches) of Roses, Geraniums and Melon and Tamato; beside a very fine plate of the late James Vick and bis three sons who now own and manage this large business. These features must make the Floral Guide valuable to their many thousandg of customers in this country. Ve also notice that Vick returns to the plan started by the foander of the’ business years ago, © offering ash prizes at the State Fair. One would think they were a little out of their heads to offer to the public such a work as the Guide free, for that is what it amounts to, when they say it will be sent on receipt of fifteen cents, and that a certificate goo, for fifteen eonts worth of seed will be returned with the

The New Free Press, referring to the election of Boulanger, says: * If President Carnot earnestly summons the whole of
France to decide the question of the gov- erument, the country will perhaps recoil from the disgrace of falling into the bands of a political adventurer. Paris, by the election of Boulanger, has signified its approval of the Revanche idea. The ex- ecration of all people will be heaped on the | head of the nation responsible for the next | War in Europe.” The J’ress declares that President Carnot must abandon bis reserve, | otherwise Boulangists will swallow France within a year.”
