Mother.
BY JACUB B. DOCKENDORFF. Mother! that tender, magic word,
Firs: by the infant lips expressed ; What goldea memories are stirred
Within this lonely breast As mid the throng that passes by
I hear a childish voice exclaim: Mother ! and see the form that. fast
Enfolds the one that lisped that name.
Then in my solitude I sigh lor that dear mother for away, And ali her loving constancy And care from day to day, As through the course of childhood years She-fursed my tender, feeble form ; Forgetting toi], enduring fears, Content to shield me from the storm.
Methinks I see that careworn fece Turned lovingly upon me now, And every line of sorrow trace Upon the anxious brew That telis as naught but mother’s can The deep concern her bosom feels For me ; but who can understand All that a mother’s heart conceals ?
In the lone watches of the night, When all are lost to consciousness, She weeps and prays that all is right— That God will keep and bless Her bey in all his wanderings, And bring him to her once again Ere her poor, tired spirit wings Its flight beyond life’s toil and pain.
Mother! His hand shall ever be
Held forth t» guard His children well ; And ail that L have lost ia thee

people and umbrellas. Everybody is in| earnest, from the tawny heathen Chinee to | the fair-haired son of Sweden, and a person | who is lucky enough to get inside can remain | there an hour or s» providing he or she is} robust enough to stand the jem and tobaces | smoke. ‘Ihe sinoking is continued not tor| the reason that the citizens wish to be rude, |} but because the unfortunate individual who| forgets to take his pipe or cigar from his} mouth before entering the jam cannot after-/} wards find reom sutiicient to peiform the’ operation. But the post office is just the
piace to go if you wish to find a friend, for it
‘brings out” all the stragglers that the; churches and societies fail to catch. The
motto in this case seems to be ** First come, first
served,” and that rule is so well carried out
that everybody gets there first, which only
goes to show that the wisest and most honored
sayings sometimes fail and become entirely
impracticable. In” concluding my remarks
upon the post office | wish to say with all
honor to the gallantry of the citizens, that’ sometimes they allow the ladies to be served | first. However, there is now in course of: erection a suitable building, which will no; doubt remedy this sad state of affairs, and,
it is hoped, fiucrease the chances of the
letters bei: g delivered safely and promptly.
Accross the harbor from the city is the Indien Mission, a tidy, white-washed little village. It is built low down at the foot of the mountains and its white walls make a very pleasing contrast to the dark green verdure which clothes the lofty back-ground. In viewing the m-untains from the city one would be led to beleve that their baves reached to the water's edge, while in reality they are five or six miles away.
Vancouver has every means of communica. tion with the outer world. Steamers ply regularly between the cily and China, Japan and Australis, at intervals of about six or

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
More Aboui Vancouver City.
| LETTER II.
| Six,—In my last 1 gave a few hints which may prove of some service to those Ba who would come to Vancouver to better
their fortunes In this letter I intend giv- .ing your readers some idea of the city vut- aide of its advantages (?) to speculators.
Vhe Fraser River empties itself into the ‘Strait of Georgia through two outfalls, forming a delta at its mouth. About three mils from this delta is Burrard Inlet, a sheet #f water almost land-locked. and inte wh.ch, at all times of the year, vessels of any size canenter. The entrance to Bur- lrard Inlet is called the Narrows. (Gn a penineu'a, having Cual Harbor on the east, land Engiish Bay on the west, stauds the modern City of Vancouver.
attracts the visitor, and is far more attract- ive than the city itself. Away to the southeast, in the State of Washington, looms up the lofty summit of Mount Baker. On the opposite side, and about six miles distant from the city, across the Inlet, istretches a chain of mountains, averaging jin height from 3,000 to 6,000 feet, and which, in certain states of the atmosphere, present a very beautiful appearance.
The city is well sheltezed on every side, and the cold easterly winds, which we feel so keenly in the east, are unknown here. In the background the city is sheltered by the Oiympian Mountains, and on the North | by the Coast Range. The Island of Van- ‘couver shelters it from the ocean. The ‘principal streets are graded, but those 'which are net graded are very dangerous i for teams, owing to the mud, which, in the |winter season, usually gets worked up to ithe depth of two and three feet in places. But here we have all the advantages of ‘modern invention to assist us in travelling, such as the electric railway and light, and we have also an »bundance of good side- walks, thanks to the plentitude of lumber and sawmills in the vicinity. Vancouver can also boast of a waterworks system, a fire department, and a police furce. The city is also soon to be convectad with New Westminster by an electric railway, and the problem which the real estate agents are now trying to solve is the question as to how high a price should they ask for the land in the immediate vicinity of this com- ing modern improvement. We have the telephone, a dock for shipping, a hospital, and also a park which lacks nothing but a great deal of improvement to make it one the most delightful spvts in nature.
|
We have numereus benevolent and fra- \ternal organizations here such as the Free ,Masons, Oddfellows, Good Templars, ‘Knights of Labor, Knights of Pythias, ‘Lucomotive Engineers, United Work- ‘men, Foresters, Sons of England. etc., land a St. George’s, St. Andrew’s, and ‘St. Patrick’s Society. We have also a public reading room, Young Men’s Chris- jtian Association and Women’s Christian ‘Temperance Union. The eleven churches ‘of the city comprise 3 Presbyterian, 2 Me- thodist, 1 Baptist, 3 Episcopal, 1 Congre-
immense stock of gational and 1 Roman Catholic. | The Post Office of Vancouver requires a|
roo description. When our Post Office ‘was builr it never could have been intended to supply the requirements of a thriving jtown hke Vancouver, The most interest- ing and busy scene in the city takes place ‘within its walls once a day The time is from the arrival of the eastern mail until about five o’clock. When the mail arrives ail the wickets are closed until the letters ‘and papers are assorted. Daring the time ‘of the assorting, andeven before the train arrives, the expectant cilizens come flocking from every quarter. ‘The persons who are ‘fortunate enough to get nar the wicket are lucky indeed, providing ti. .t they can hold | the position. Generally long before the ‘assorting is over the office is crowded to overflowing, and many are compelled to wait outside in the rain. 1 say in the rain, for you must know that at thw season of the year it rains almost constantly. | Then is to be seen a wonderful variety of
oo The scenery around ,the city is what first
eight weeks. We have daily communication with Victoria, tri-weekly with Nan-imo, ‘and also with Portland, Seattle and San Francisco A line of railway will soon be in operation between Vancouver and the American coast ports
' Hoping that these few facts may find a place in your valuable paper, and thanking you for space in the past, 1 remain, yours , Sincerely,
Jacozn B. DocKENDORF?, Vancouver, B. C., Jan. 20, 1891.
Game Protectivn.
Srr,—As the season for game is past but will soon retura again, | would wish to cail the attention of the Game Arsociation to «ne point in particular, and that is night shooting, which is very destructive to game, not only in killing, but it tends to scare them from the feeding grounds, to which they resort at night. If there be not an Act in force, the Association should see, at the next sitting of Parliament, to have one passed and rigidly enforced under heavy fines for the firing of a gun after sunset and before sunrise, But if not, if such work be allowed to be carried on for a few yeers more, our bays and rivers will be deserted by the feathered race, in which they now abound.
A GUNNER. Grand Tracadie, Jan. 28, 1891.
Meeting at Grand Tracadie.
As by notice specified, a meeting was held at Corran Ban Bridge on Wednesday, 21st inst., touching the question of a Breakwater in Tracadie Harbor. The meeting was well attended, for the question is a vital one in these parts.
P. C. Kelly, Esq., occupied the chair. The meeting being called to order, letters | from Messrs. Davies and Peters, expressing regret of unavoidable absence, were read by the Secretary, and the subject of the meet- ing fell under consideration.
The inconveniences to local and gulf fisheries generally arising from the want of a breakwater, and the immense importance of a good shipping port to the farmers of the surrounding districts, were fully con- sidered by the several speakers. The fol- lowing resolutions were read and adopted :
Whereas, In recent years immense sams have been expended on the protection of the fisheries, and whereas, said fisheries are almost entirely carried on in the Gult of St. Law- rence ; and whereas, the conditioa of Tracadie Harbor, which is slmest ceutral on the north side of the Island, is such that fishermen ex- perience great difficulty in pursuing their avocation, and schooners of any considerable size are unable to enter either for :cfuge or for trade.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this meet- ing, the fisheries, which cust 39 mach, should, by the construction of a breakwater, be pleced within reach of the fishermen ; and reso! ved, that this meeting petition the Minister of Public Works for redress of grievances ; and further
Resolved, That the Mivister of Marine be memoralized that he may use his influence in the Department of Public Works to obtain the prayer of said petition.
Among the speakers we were pleased to note Dr. Jenkins, who, some years ago, as representative of this district at Ottawa, laid a petition embodying the same request which we now make before the House, and urged the prayer thereof in the Department of Public Works.
At the conclusion a vote of thanks was tendered the Dictor for having kindly at- tended the meeting, to which he briefly and fitly replied, and meeting adjourned.
