Then. how can a mere license convey authority to a magistrate? No. The magistrate must, in our opinion, have

skating (if the weather permits) on Christ- mas Day. The extras are now being put in. The building will be furnished through- out with every regard for the comfort and convenience of its patrons.

Sir Walter Scott in Poem and Nong.

{

| uss was Dr. Anderson’s theme at St. } James’ Hall last evening, Malcolm Mc- | Leod, Esq., inthe chair. Dr. Anderson is jadmittedly one of our best lecturers— ithough he wants the easy delivery and | simple, yet polished diction which were so (delightful in the lecture delivered by the Rev. J. M. Gordon. It is hardly necessary to say the theme had been carefully elabor- ated by the learned doctor, and was inter- esting and pleasing to the audience. The examples it contained of Scott’s ability as & poet, were, as the chairman justly re- marked, among the best that could have been chosen. But one of the best, in our opinion, was missed. Has womanly nature ever been more accurately depicted than it is in these lines?

**(Q woman! in our hours of ease,

Uncertain, coy, and hard to please,

And variable as the shade

By the light quivering aspen made; When pain and anguish wring the brow, A ministering angel thou!”

Dr. Anderson, however, made very clear

the fact that he is a thorough-going ad- mirer of Scott. It goes without saying that he fairly astounded his hearers when he claimed for his hero a place in the first rank of poets. That Scott is lucid and ac- curate in description, that his power of delineation is the power of a master’s hand, must be admitted; but he has no better right to be named as 4&4 great poet, than an_ excellent pho- tographer has to be ranked as a great artist. A man may give true, and animated, and powerful descriptions in prose and verse, and yet possess comparatively little of **the vision and the facuity divine.” Scott was a great writer of prose—indeed, his prose contains as much poetry as his verse ; but as a poet his flights were low when compared with those of Burns and Byron, and Keats and Shelley, and many others, not to speak of the poets in the high- est rank of all. This is now so well under- stood that wecan only account for Dr. Anderson's extraordinary contention that Scutt is the peer of Homer and Shakespeare on the ground (1) that the Doctor isaScotch- iman, and (2) that he is not an appreciative reader of the newspapers. The tendency of the age to read newspapers and neglect the poets is undoubtedly one that ought to be corrected. But to read .the poets and neglect the journals of the day would be much more deplorable. Newspaper read- ing, when not counterbalanced by the study of the great authors, is certainly apt to produce light-mindedness and a disposition to be satisfied with the fleeting knowledge of ephemeral things. But it keeps one up to the age, and it sharpens the power of discrimination—a power of which, in respect to the poets, at least—Dr. Ander- son is, evidently, lacking. A vote of thanks was moved by Mr. Mc- Pherson, of the P. E. Island Railway, and seconded by the Rev. James Carruthers. Both gentlemen highly complimented the lecturer. The motion was heartily received and unanimously passed.

Methodist Missions.

The closing service in connection with the Methodist Missionary Anniversary of this city was held last evening in the Upper Prince Street Church, and was fairly at- tended. Appropriate and admirable ad- dresses bearing on the various aspects of the missionary enterprise were delivered by revs. J. Reid, D. D. Moore and G. C. P. Palmer. Mr. J. D. Seaman occupied the chair.

The sixty-fourth annual report of the Missionary Society of the Methodist Church of Canada is one of the most encouraging in the history of the church. It represents more of missionary connection, sympathy, activity and liberality than any pre- vious issue has yet shown. The Society has its mission throughout the various parts of the Dominion, and Newfounad- land, alsoin Japan, embracing some 463 stations, with 555 missionaries and assist- ants. The field is divided into Domestic, Indian, French, Chinese and Foreigu Mis- sions. The income from all sources for the past year was about $220,000, being an increase of seme $18,000 on previous year. The returns from the various Annual Con- ferences show an aggregate gain of over 10,000 to the membership of the Church, and a fair proportion of this gain has been won on mission fields. The Society is out

of debt, and is now preparing for large endeavors inthe name of her Lord and Master.

ABRESTED AT His Wire’s Deatunep.— Eighteen months ago Henry C. Layburn, a prominent business man and member of the Council of Springfield,O., lett to avoid arrest for a series of alleged forgeries, amounting to several thousand dollars, and has been a fugitive from justice ever since. arly last week he was called home by his sick wife, and a day or two after his arrival, while he was ministering to her, an officer arrested him. In deference to his wife's condition, Layburn was held at his home. The officer grimly waited for his prisoner, who sat with his dying wife in his arms. When she had breathed her last he was transferred to jail.

Meeting of Presbytery.

Tue Presbytery of P. KE. Island met in Summerside on the 11th inst. There were present: Revs. J. M. Macleod, Geo. Me- Millan, A. F. Carr, Thomas Corbett, J. M. Macleod, William M. Tuffts and Henry Dickie, Ministers, and James Carruthers, Esq., Ruling Kider.

Rev. Mr. Corbett reported that he had, according to appointment, intimated to the congregation of Richmond Bay East the resignation of their pastor, Rey. Archibald Brown, and cited them to appear at this mecting for their interest. Messrs. John McArthur, Roderick McLean, Washington Carr and Mr. Symmonds were received and heard as commissioners fromthe con- gregation. A resolution, unanimously adopted at a congregational meeting held in Lot 14, was read, expressing apprecia- tion of Mr. Brown’s ministerial services and regret at the prospect of parting with him. Rev. Mr. Brown adhered to his re- signation, and desired that the same should take effecu immediately. On motion, the Presbytery accepted Mr, Brown’s resigna- tion of the pastoral charge of Richmond Bay East, to take effect from this date, appointed Rev. Thomas Corbett interim Moderator of the Sessien, and Rey. Mr. Valentine to declare said charge vacant on Sabbath, 23rd inst.

Mr. McArthur, student, appeared before Presbytery. He intimated his desire to study for the ministry, and to be employed in the meantime as a catechist. Rev. Messrs. Dickie, McLeod and Corbett were appointed a committee to examine Mr. McArthur, and if found qualified, to report to the Committee on Supply, who are authorized to give him appointments.

The next quarterly meeting of Presby- tery will be held in Charlottetown on the first Tuesday of February, 1889, at eleven o'clock, a. m.
