An anchor, supposod to have beon lest

i shall not heed them where I he

Nothing that sounds shall signify, Nothin. +he headetone’s fret of rain; Nothing to me the dark days pain

Sooner or later the sun shall shine

Wich tender warmth on that mound of mine; Sooner or later in Summer's air

Clover and violets blossom there

{ shall not feel in that deep laid rest

‘The sheeted light fall over my breast,

Nog ever note in those hidden hours

Sooner or later the stain!ess snows

Shall add their hush to :ay mute repose- Sooner or later shall slani and shift— __ : And heap my bed with their dazzling drift.

Chil! though that frozen pall shall seem, Its touch no colder can make the dream- That wrecks not the sacred dread Shrouding the city of the dead.

Sooner or later the bee shall [come

And all the noon with its golden hum; Sooner or later, on half po'sed wing The bluebird about my grave will sing.

Sing and chirp and whistle with glee, Nothing his music can mear to me.

None of those beautiful things shall know How soundly their lover sleeps below.

Sooner or later, far out in the night,

The stars shall over me wing: their flight ; Sooner or later the darkling dews

Catch the white spark in their silent ooze.

Never a ray shall part the gloom

That wraps me ‘round in the silent tomb, Peace shall be perfect to lip and brow Sooner or later—ah ! why not now?

The Platform of the Quebec Gov- eroment.

The Montreal Gozette gives the following as the platform of the new Government:

I. Financial Reform.

(a) Sale of the North Shore Railway to the Federal Government.

(6) To press the just claims of the Pro- vince on the Dominion.

(c) To liquidate the Municipal Loan Fund,

(d) Reduction of expenses.

Il. Development of our resources.

(a) Encouragement of manufacture of beet sugar.

(b) Encouragement of manufacture of cheese.

(c) Encouragement ef phosphate min- ing.

(d) Revision of general mining laws.

f (e) Attention to education.

The Gazette*tadds: This is no clap-trap gener:l promise, but a statesmanlike expose of a wise and prudent policy, and it must be remembered that the Cabinet is com- posed of men able to carry it out.

Beaconsfield at the Lord Mayor's Dinner.

‘The annual dinner of the Lord Mayor of London took place on the 10th inst. It is reported that Lord Beaconsfield, rising to reply to the toast of the evening—the Heulth of Her Majesty’s Ministers—was re- ceived with three times three cheers. He said that the aspect of affairs was much more satisfactory than when he last spoke on & similar occasion. Business was now being done which three menths ago would have been deemed impossible. The only question now was whether the revival was temporary or permanent. The opinion of Her Majesty's Government was that the re- vival was of a permanent and lasting char- acter. He thought that the official returns de- monstrated that fact, because they showed the revival was not local but univer- sal. The great iron industry had doubtless in a great measure pane” | owing to de- mands in the United States or various European countries, but were occasioned by miscellaneous demands of our native in- dustries. Every article of tropical product had risen in value. The cheinicaldetads, which was a great index of prosperity had been unable to execute its orders. The rise in the value of silver would, in all prob- ability release the Indian statesmen of one of their greatest perplexities. Dumng a — of unprecedented depression there

ad not been asingle meeting to express disco: tent with the national institutions. He wished our brilliant brethren in Ireland

would bea little more emulous of this ex-| ~~

ple. He was ata loss to comprehend how the poor Irish people had brought them- selves to believe that the best remedy for economical distress was political agitation and social confusion. (Loud laughter and cheers.) Doubtlese there were portions of Ireland where there would be considerable aufering, if a remedy was not offered. The Irish people should remember that they nsver appeal tothe English simply in vain. I: would be the duty of Her Majesty's Ministers to watch the condition of Ireland with the anxiety required by the stituatien. The Irish people should condescend to re- member that their harvest, though bad; aad though they were much more depend- ent wpon it than are the English theirs, still was much better than the bar- vest of England. Addressing the Lord Mayor, Beaconsfield said: When I addressed your predecessor, I informed him that the Government was contemplating large military operations in Central Asia, the object being to strengthen and render secure the north Western boundary of the Indian Empire. These operations have been successful, and British influence is fully established in Central Asia. (Loud Cheers. ) _—_—P oa -—

The Times is warming up in favor of the Conservative administeelt: m. it has pub- lished unfavorable criticisms on the speeches of nearly all the Liberal states- men; and notably on those of Lord Hait-

ington, Mr. Bright, Sir Henry Janes, Sir

In reference to the death of Senator Chanéler, it is stated asJan actual fact thst Coroner Mann. who heard Chandler speak on Friday night, after he went to bed, dreamed that he was holding an mnquost on the Senator’s body, and that Joseph Me- dill, of the 7'ribune, and Hon. Char'as B. Farrell were on the jury. Strange to say, | this dream turned out to be |.terally true) the following day.

Mars will be evening star afier the 12th and throughout the month. His oppesi- tion occurs on the 12th, and never was this celestial phenomenon anticipated with such interest by astrenomers, for the opposition of 1877 was the epoch of the great dis- j

‘

of his two satellites Deimos and Phobos. The planet is not as near as he was 1877, but he is more favorably situated for ob- servation.

It is said that the Emperor Alexander, of Russia, has become a confimed hypocon- driac. He shuts himself up for days, and; can, with difficulty, be persuaded to take food, which must be left at his chamber door. He frequently bursts into tears, and is afflicted with strange dreams. On the nights when these seize him, two doctors sit up in his bedroom. In short, it is sup- posed he is mentally affected; and his long seclusion at Livadia, it is believed, is to be devoted to a system of treatment which will either kill or cure.

The Lord Bishop of Nova Scotia

PRINCIPAL:

The Rev; John Padfield.

HIS SCHOOL offers, at very moderato cost. the advantages of a comfortable and

refined education. The course of Inctruction is the same as that of the best schools in England and is founded upon the University inations for Women. Eight young ladies from this School passed tne Local Examination ef the University of King’s College in June last. This is the only School in Canad» that has passed pupils at a University Exair ination. The number of pupils is limited, rendering the School select, and while it possesses all the educational advantages of a l<rge public schoel, each pupil is enabled to rece: ve that individual care and oversight which is so important, aod} ‘hich camnot be given ima large establish
