WOrkKing majority

The return t

power the same party

for the fourth term, is, we believe, unpre-

cedented in the histery of this Province.

Narrow as the majority is, it proves that

the largest properti m of the people, at

least, appreciate and honor men whose

pub ~onduct is governed by a consistent

Th ibt in which Mr. Ferguson’s elec-

the community—men

who sympathise with him on account of

@ extraordinary means used to effect his

yverthrow, and feel that ought to be

hundreds of votes ahead. unscru-

By the pus use of

money and whiskey, with inti-

midationand other wrongful practices, super-

added to the special pleading of both Mr. L. H. Davies and Mr. Peters, he has been placed eleven votes behind. It is, however, hel ved that the special votes which were beyond the reach of such influences, will be largely in his favor, and that he will be de ile red ected on Declarati 0 Day.

Ready to Begin.

Eyery year a new army of boys enter the

I ness world. Each b Vv will feel sure that he is going to make a grand success,

id if he does not feel that way he is not much of a boy. A great many boys fail,

not because they have not ability, but be- cause they want to begin at the top; they

are not willing to shovel, but want to make their way in cushioned chairs. The men who fill cushioned chairs with the greatest dignity are those whvw never hesitated to shoveling helped to make a path upward Che boy who is willing to be a boy and do s boy's part in the world, keeping eyes and ears open for opportunities to learn every detail of the business in which he is en- gaged, will find his chance to step every year. Do not fear to ask questions. If yeu do not understand a thing, study until you do find out all there isto know about it. Do not fear to get to your business a little

early or stay a little late. Keep your mind on your share of the work ;do not try to manage for the whole business firm. I re- member a man who used to amuse me very much. He never earned more than fifteen dollars a week until he had passed fifty years of age, and during his married life his wife had earned more than he had. Yet he would grow intensely excited because a large and exceedingly prosperous corpora-

tiou would not adopt his plans, though his

connection with it was paying his fare as passengers on itscars. The tirm employing him would, managed by him, grow wealthy in a year, he insisted. Still the firm dispensed with his valuable services and were able to conduct business. That

1 so busy all his business life planning affairs with which he had no con- nection that he really had no time to think work. He was not lazy, but he did not know enough to mind his own business.

writings, often speaks of

‘the peace of God.” This. indeed, is with him «a favorite phrase. This peace God im- parts to a soul that is reconciled to Him by the death of His Son. One who has this peace is conscious of it. It isto hima mat- ter of experience. He looks upon God as hia friend, and rejoices in Him. He is alike willing to obey His laws and to be saved by His grace. He does Snot propose to have any will of his own that is opposed tothat of God. ‘**Thy will be Sdone,” is his constant prayer.

The defences of Gibraltar are not by any

means ina satisfactory condition. The 100-ton gun which was displaced from its position some two years ago, owing to the

platform giving away during practice firing, has not yet been replaced, and the other gun of the same calibre cannot be used, leat a worse accident should happen. The yalleries are quite unsuitable for the mo- dern heavy ordinance. Yet new batteries have not been constructed. In fact the benefit the rock has gained from the spe- cial fund voted for the defence abroad has been a smal] battery near the summit.

According to London correspondents Queen Victoria is one of the hardest work-

ed ofticialsin Great Britain. Apart from ier |nbors in caring for her private corres- pond receives daily from every vovernment i boxes of documents, warrents, and indentures requiring her at- tention and signature. There is not a ques- tion of precedent, etiquette, or change of uniform in the army, or detail of military and civil orders and decoratiuns that does not come under her insmediate supervision.

Odds and Ends,

The easiest way for a good wife to get

‘along pleasantly is to practice what her hus- ' band preaches.

The man who is shocked to death by electricity should be buried in a volt. It would be an appropriate place for his last ohm since he is sure to dynamo.

The largest horse farm in the world, ac- cording to a recent statement, is near Chey- enne, W.T. The horses number 6,000, and require 100 miles of fencing to keep them within bounds on 120,000 acres.

Edwin Arnold is a great correspondent as well as a famous poet. In one of his re- cent letters to the London Telegraph he located Philadelphia in New Jersey. This, we presume, must be accepted as a poetic license.

A young man in New Jersey who sued his adopted mother for naming him Moses Exodus Matthew Luke Numbers Smith was beaten in the suit, but the court took occa- sion to teil the woman that lunatic asylums alway» quartered such as she in the left wing.

The true manner of judging of the worth o& amusements is to try them by their effects on the nerves and spirits the day atter. True amusement ought to be, as the word indicates, recreation—something that refreshes, turns us out anew, rests the mind and body by change, and gives cheer- fullness and alacrity to our return to duty.

A colored dude chanced to be among the seated passengers in a Washington horse- car. A young woman of his own color entered, and he immediately arose and offered her his seat. She gracefully de- murred, and said: **I do not like to de- prive you, sir, of your seat.” ‘*No depra- vity, miss,” was his reply; ‘‘no depravity at all; I prefer to stand.”

A German settlement was started near Dunmore, on the C. P. R., a few months ago, when 25 families were located by the company and money advanced to them. It is now in & prosperous condition. The cclony contains 400 persons of German ex- traction which will likely be increased to 1,000 before next fall. Land sales this year have been a magnificent success, the sales already having exceeded the amount of last year, and are still goiug on.

We have in the Maritime Provinces a population of about one million persons, while in Ontario the population is over two millions, and yet we have three Lieut. Governors receiving $25,000 annually to- gether, while the Governor of Ontario re- ceives $10,000 perannum. Maritime union would effeci a saving of $150,000 per an- num, which would enable us to make a cap- ital expenditure of $2,500,000 upon rail- ways and other public works. Tho fact is well worthy of consideration.

[Written for The Examiner. | Sorrow and Cheer.

Oh, sad winds, moaning through the brake, Wy tell go drear a tale,

My heart is faint ; I pray you take The sadness from your will ;

The soft winds answered: ‘* Lo, my song Is full of gentle cheer ;

I sing that winter is not long, That sunshine hovers near.’

When sorrow reigas within the heart, Then outward things seem sad ;

The bird’s, the sunshine, cannot start A thrill to make us glad.

Oh, if we could cast the gloom aside, And then how sweet the song

Which makes the echoes far and wide,

And which our hearts prolong.
