Last Friday morning, the little daughter of Mrs. Fraser, of Indiantown, N. B., went to the well a short distance from the house for a pail of water. The well was one of those sunken puncheons commonly used for collect- ing running water and the approach to it had been rendered slippery by the ice thatdtad ac- cumulated around it. A short time afterward a neighbor going to the well found the child lying in it, only the lower portion of her body being out of the water. She had apparently slipped on the ice while stooping to fill her pail and fallen head foremost into the well, from which position she was unable to ex- tricate herself, When found life was extinct.

What Gladstone Thinks.

_

Lonpbon, Jan. 31.

| Mr, Gladstone, in the course of a recent |article in the Nineteenth Century, contends that, although Ireianu, through fesr, eb- tained many concessions from England,that an attempt by Ireland at the present time to repeat her former tactics would, to hina, |appear to be like warring against Heaven. In the same article he defends American contributions to Ireland,on the ground that they are for the purpose. of staving off famine.

Effect of Kon-Intercourse.

—- ——

( Boston Herald.)

The assertions made by the Canadian papers that iw the event of an application of the non- intercourse theory the United States would suffer equally with Canada may be aecepted as acorrect statement of the matter. We have, however, this advantage over our northern neighbor, that our powers of resistance are a great deal larger, and a burden of losses that would annihilate the prosperity of Camadla would not have a very serious effect upon the welfare of the people of the United Stetes. We do not believe in the policy it is proposed that the United States government shall adopt for we think that more can be gained by ex- hibiting a spirit of fairness and willingness to accerd all just rights to others than can be secured by a policy of retaliation, We ere as a people in the present instance quite as much, if not more, at fault than our Canadian neighbors ; still,the latter will make a mistake if they can be indifferent to the ill-will of their nearest neighbors.

—— ne The Sale of Girls.

The Tangier press continues to call attention to the systematic and outrageous sales of young girls in Moroceo. From the statements made it appears there are regular agencies in Paris and Brussels for the entrapment of girls for immoral purposes. The victims are lured to their ruin by seductive promises of lucrative situations as governesses, seamstresses and domestic servants, and once within the dominion of the polygamous monarch they are veritable slaves, without any chance of escape from a degrading life of lust. In some cases English girls are first lured to Paris and then drugged, put on board ship and taken to Tangier, where they are sold to precurers, who carry them into the interior, where they are imprisoned in the harems of wealth natives. Resistance is overcome by systematic cruelty, and the lash plays an important part in reducing the deluded girls to abject obedience. The Sultan is greatly incensed at the exposure made by the press, and if it were not that he has some fear of foreign consular interference some of the editors weuld be quickly introduced to the disagreeable myster- ies of the bow-string.

Forte Rico sugar.

Yea good old West India raw sugar is now hard to get—for the refined article is cheaper and has almost crowded it ont of the inarket. We often hear the remark made: ‘* The sugar sold now-a-days is not as sweet as that we used to get years ago.” Whether this isso or not we shall not attempt to say —but we do know this, that those who taste our Porto Rico Sugar de- clare it to be the real article, and ‘‘ some- thing like the thing.” It is sweet—and no mistake, but it is dear—seven cents per pound. Can we seli it cheaper than this? Not if we are to make any profit out of it. But we have promised to give some bargains this winter, and we will begin with this Sugar, and for a little we will offer it at 6 CENTs PER Ls. Now this is a genuine bargain and much below the value of the Sugar,—and we expect those who want some of it to procure it without de- lay. It won't last long at this price.
