As a result of his own personal obser- vations, Professor Sheldon is able to state that the Eastern Provinces, in mapy parts of them, are well adapted to the growth of roots and green crops, as well as of hay and straw forage. These crops supply the

mndation for successful stock-raising and dairyiug; aud by stock-raising he does pot mean cattle ouly, but all sorts ot avimals which go to the efficient equipment of mixed farms.

The prospects of British farmers are brightening, and a few good seasons will, says the Professor, revive their confidence and replenish their pockets, while a rapidly growing population will maintain the demand for food no matter what the volume of foreign competition may become. Varions means are being taken to inculeate improved practices in husbandry throughout Great Britain, and sound agricultural knowledge is being imparted to the people. It is in dairy farming, probably, that the great est exists for improvement, espe- cially in butter and cheese making, for the need of tuition in these departments far to be perennial. Dairy schools and other meaus of duiry tuition have already effected great improvement in Ireland, and similar means are being adopted in England and Scotland, Can ada, too, may wisely employ similar agencies; for her destiny 1s to develop great butter and cheese as well as aud mutton and live stock export- She ought, indeed, to sup-

Does Death End All?

Tuis question discussed treal by the celebrated Joseph Cook, on Sunday evening last. It is, in one respect, similar to the question recently pro | p yrunded by the Toronto Globe. viz.: **Is the liquor traffic a blessing or a curse?” Of course, everyone knows that the liquor traffic is a curse; aad everyone} knows that death does not end all, just/ as well as everyone knows that the world is round. Still—such is the power of

Admitting the theory of evolution, why should we distrust conscience because it was evolved, aud trust our reasoving facul- ties which had also been evolved. Turning to physiology, he quoted Tyn- dall’s statement that “the evidence of spontaneous geveration crumbles in the fingers of competent examiners.” He showed also Darwin's declaration, that the first germ of living matter must have come from the hands of a creator. The fact that the germinal matter in all life, both in animal and plants, was precisely the same, though the outcome differed so vastly, showed there was a great weaver behind who caused this matter to resolve itself into different forms. Mr. Couk then took up the Bible aud showed that the results of its teachiugs had a more | beneficial effect on man than the teach- "| ings of any other authority.

The People’s Cemetery.

}

Tuis new resting-place for our de- parted ones received its first tenant yesterday. It has the advantage of being near the town, within easy reach of all who may have to perferm the melancholy duty of committing the body ofa relative or friend to the grave, and of all who may feel it a melancholy pleasure to visit and adorn a relative’s or friend’s last earthly habitation. The view from the cemetery commands the town, ihe Hillsborough River, and, altogether, one of the broadest and fivest landscapes in the Province. Good taste aud judgment have been shown in lay- ing off the People’s Cemetery; and we hope to see it so well kept that it will reflect credit on the Protestants of our community

| —-The last number of the Educational feeord says of the teachers’ meetings which school inspectors of the Upper Provinces are now required to hold in each county, that at the last series, held in June, the interest manifested on the first organization of the meetings was fally maintained. *‘The object of these meetings,” it adds, “is to bring the teachers together for the purpose of con- sulting concerning the best methods of carryiug on their common work. It affords the inspectors a good opportunity to point out common faults and prevaleat defects in the work of the ele- meutary schools, and, by the meaaos of lectures from experienced teachers, to impress upen the yousger teachers right methods and correct principles. It is, therefore, in the interests of the schools that the teachers should attend ithese annual meetings. Some school bourds have already requested their | teachers to attend and we believe that ;school boards will now require their teachers to attend these meetings as one of the coudilions of their engagements. Such an arrangement would be just and fair, and it would certainly prove very beveficent to the schools,”

Toss who attended the lecture of Mr. Galloway, at Prince Street Methodist Chureb, last evening, listened to an eloquent discourse on the *-Unseen battle- Gelawithin the human breast.”” The great sufferings over which Mr, Galloway has riumphed, awaken interest and sympathy; and his lectures have real merit, We hope jthere will be a large audience in Zion

in Mon-| Chureh this evening.

it can no longer be alleged that the 1m- perial autnorities pass over the claim of colonists in favor of Englishmen. The Thames watermen are boiling with rage, because Wolseley will take 600 C i

boatmen up the Nile with him. A salary of 340 per month would be much larger for a Thame: boatman than for a St. Lawrence man,but the reinuneration is a small matter compared with the dishoner of yielding the supremacy to colonmsts. To add insult to injury, it is proposed to bring native African boatmen from Liberia to as- sist in passing the Nile cataracts The Tames men (certainly have a grievance. Bat Wolseley has had experience with

English and Canadian pioneers and he may be presumed to know what he is about. The Nile passage will almost certainly be easier and safer than the Red River route, where Wolseley got acquainted with our voyage- | urs, and there is no doubt that our six

hundred will acquit themselves well. While
