Instead of having two instructors for the Kast and two for the West, it was proposed that there be six for each, and that there be a thorough visitation of the cheese factories every year; that the instructors should start out in the spring, covering all the factories

After the Board has been organized,
persons may be proposed as candidates for membership, and if the proposition is car- ried by a majority of two-thirds of the members present at any meeting. any per- son may become a member of the Board of Trade. On the other hand, if any member wishes to resign he must give the Secretary ten days’ notice and pay his dues.
The Act provides that a Committee of the Board may act as arbitrators in dis- puted cases; and, generally, that the Board may voice and represent the
opinions of the community on all commer- cial questions which may arise.

The dissidents are, one after another, quietly fall. ing into line under Sir John A.

So Mr. Blake's sympathy like somebody's else eloquence has been ‘wasted the desert air.”

Mr. H. N. Goff was then called upon to give & summary o: the General Report of he Mechodist Missionary Society of Canada for the year 1885-865. From his clear state- ments of the character and magnitude of the work, we iearned that the Society has under its control tive diiferent classes of missions: Domestic, Indian, French, Japan- ese and Chinese in British Columbia ; that it employs in its work a total paid agency of 580, including missionaries, native as- sistants, teachers and interpreters, and a membership in connection with the vari- ous missions of nearly fifty thousand. The income for the year was about $190,000, being an increase of nearly $10,000 on the previous year.
Mr. A. E. Crosby lead his hearers around the principal centres of the great missio»- ary tield, and showed in well chose: lan- guage some of the marvellous triumphs made in pagan lands by the missionaries of the Cross.
tev. Mr. Shenton delivered of the evening He ably reviewed the needs of the hour in the process of the world’s evangelization, and also delivered some telling words ou the duty of giving to the cause of God.
The report of the school for the current year was then read by Mr. 8S. B. Enman. From it we learn that there are 23 teachers with a total of 420 scholars on the roll, showing an increase of 47 scholars on pre- vious year. The average attendance has been 224. Two scholars have been re- moved by death during the year.
A library containing 216 volumes has recently been purchased, and a Temper- ance Band of Hope has been organized by
the pastor with a present membership of 186.

THE
Cornwall and
COUNCIL. BILL DISCUSSED. APRIL, 25.
The Legislative Council chamber was filled, last evening, with a large audience, who listened attentively to the debate on the Hillsborough Subway Bill.
An amendment, deferring the construc- tion of the work until further information was obtained, was introduced by Hon. Mr. Laird, seconded by Hon. Mr. McNutt, and supported by Hen. Mr. McKenzie. This amendment was opposed by the Hon. Messrs. Nicholson, Clow and Martin, who ably supported the original bill. Hon. Mr. Martin delivered a forcible and telling speech, showing up the insincerity of the Opposition, who were taking _ effectual means to deprive Belfast and the Southern side of the Island of the travelling accom- modation so justly due them. The taunts of the Opposition, charging the Govern- ment with bringing forward this scheme for political purposes were successfully met, and Mr. Martin only expressed the views of the people of Belfast and Murray Har- bor, when he asked the Opposition to allow the Bill to pass, so that the sincerity of the Government could be tested. If, as he said, this Billwere passed, and it were found that the Government took no steps to have the work performed, then they could
SUBWAY
conclude that the Government had been insincere. He taunted the Op- position with cowardice in not allow- ing the bill to go into Committee, so that the measure eeuld be discussed on its
merits. He ridiculed the idea that hon. members of that Council were better able to decide on the merits of a work of this kind, than engineers of first-class reputa- tion. With reference to the charge of the Opposition that this would be an experi- ment, he showed clearly that by the experi- ment, if any, had to be made by the Com- pany or contractors who undertook the work. From the speeches of hon. members who opposed this bill he concluded that the opposition party, true to their instincts, were not willing that any important facili- ties should be given the people of the Southern side of the Hillsborough ; that they should be moderate and humble in their demands, and should never expect to get any larger public works than a bridge across some creek or pond. Let the people of Belfast, Fort Augustus and Murray Harbor, make a note of the generosity of the Opposition party as therein displayed ; and when an opportunity arises let them give that party the condemnation their conduct deserves.

of Rev. A. J. Melntyre.
Depariure
THe Rev. Father MelIntyre left town this evening to assume the duties of the pastorate of Tracadie, Covehead and Corran Ban. From the time it became known that the rev. gentleman was to sever his connection with the parish which he has served with such acceptance for several years as senior priest, he has been literally deluged with expressions of regret at his departure, accompanied by many beautiful and costly souvenirs, suggested by the thoughtfulness and affection of the people. The grand display of silverware, bric-a-brac and articles useful for housekeeping to be seen at the Palace has rarely been excelled. In fact, the good parishioners of St. Dun- stan’s seemed to vie with each other in putting their appreciation of Father Mc- intyre’s services to them into tangible form. With the gifts of the different Sodalities, addresses were presented to the rev. gentleman. The congregation pre- sented the following address, which was accompanied with a purse containing $130 :

In coaliesiedl we pray Heaven to prosper your work among those to whom you afte sent, and to bless you with health, You on your part, we are sure, Will not at the altar forget us, the Parish- ioners of St. Dunstan's. #
Charlottetown, April 25, 1887.
This address was presented by a com- mittee of young men in the grand salon of the palace yesterday evening, and elicited a feeling and appropriate reply.
Quite a number of the members of the Cathedral congregation and the Priests of the Parish accompanied Father Mclntyre to the station at 3 o'clock. With his nu- merous friends THe EXAMINER extends to the rev. gentleman its best wishes for ‘thealth, happiness and prosperity” in his new field of labor.

Board of Trade.
THE REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ADOPTED.
The adjourned meeting of commercial men and others of this Island, to re- organize the Board of Trade, was held this morning at 11.15 o'clock in the City Coun- cil Chamber, His Worship Mayor Haviland in the chair.
Lewis Carvell, Esq., as chairman of the committee of seven appointed to take the necessary steps, read the following report :
The committee appointed by the meeting held on Friday last ‘‘to take such steps as may be necessary to reorganize the Board of Trade, with as large a membership as possi- ble,” under the mame of the ‘* Prince Edward Island Board of Trade,” have respectfully to report :—
First -That by chapter 130 of the revised statutes of Canada, which is ‘ An Act res- pecting the Incorporation of Boards of Trade,” it is provided that ‘‘any number of persons, not less than thirty, who are or have been merchants, traders, brokers, mechanics, manu- facturers, managers of banks, or insurance agents, resident in any district which has a population of not less than 2,500 persons, may associate themselves together as a Board of Trade, and appoint a Secretary.”
Second—That the persons so associating themselves together, shall under their hands and seals make a certificate, specifying the name assumed by the association, and by which it shall be known, also the name of the district in which the same is situated, and its business is transacted, and the name of the person by them appointed secretary to the Board.
Third—That such certificate shall be ac- knowledged before a notary, or other proper officer, by the secretary of the said Board of Trade, and forwarded to the Secretary of State for Canada, who shall cause the same to be recorded in a Register, to be kept for that purpose ;
Fourth—That the persons named as cor- porators in said certificate, and such others as may afterwards join them, are authorized to carry into effect the objects for which the As- sociation was constituted, and to exercise the powers and privileges conferred by the Act;
Fifth—-By the first section of this Act the expression ‘‘ district’ is made to mean a city, county, town, village or judical district, with- in and for which the Board is established under tie Act.
The committee are, therefore, of the opin- ion that if the persons who now propose to as- sociate themselves together as a Board of Trade, are to work under this Act, it would not be desirable to do so under the name se- lected by the meeting, as their district can- not extend beygnd the limits of Queen’s County. Assuming that under the circum- stances the maane will be changed, the com- mittee have prepared fer signature, and here- with submit a eertificate of association for ‘The Charlottetown Beard of Trade,” which ‘hey recommend shell be signed by as many as possible of those who are now qualified for membership under the act referred to. That, when the necessary number of signatures are procured, a secretary be selected, the neces- sary notorial certificate attached, and that the same be forwarded to the Secretary of State, at Ottawa, without delay. The committee further recommend that as soon as possible after the receipt by the Secretary of the certi- ficate of registry, he call a meeting of the In- corperators to elect a President, Vice-Presi- dent, and a Council of eight members, and also to enact by-laws; and being so organized to carry on the object of their corporation. The committee further recommend that the fees of membership be as follows: For the balance of the year 1887, $5, and yearly there- after $5. Payable in advance.
Respectfully submitted, Grorce McLrop, Peter MeNoert, Twos. Kick AM, L. CaRVELL, Geo. PEAKE, Guo. R. BEER,
Committee.
On motion of L. Carvell, Esy., seconded by George McLeod, Esy., the report was adopted, and nearly all of those present proceeded to sign the certificate prepared.
On motion a committee composed of Messrs. Carvell and Peake was appointed to solicit additional names to the certificate.
After sume little discussion respecting the working and jurisdiction of the Board, the meeting adjourned till Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, in the same place.

REVEREND Sik,— We have learned with regret that, in obedieuce tothe orders of our Bishop, the | ties which for the past few years have so closely knit us are to be severed, and your labors trans- | ferred to another field.
‘The regret we feel at parting with you natur- ally brings back to our recollection the many waysin which you have busied yourself for our weifure; for your zeal was not confined within narrow limits, but merree itself without losing any ofits vigor over ali those works which warm into fervor a Catholic peopie. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul in its care of the poor, the So- ciety of St. woseph, the education of the young in our schools, and the well-crganized Society of Christian Doc rin —all have experienced your care and prospered under oa direciion.
But more than all this, it fell to your lot, while yet young in the iabors of the Priesthood, to dis- charge its most solemn duties in the midst of cir- cumstances which appal the human heart, and test severely even the self-devotion of the mis-
