out of the surplus earnings. in this instaace has assuredly been protit- able. And there isa lessou for cavital-

ists and «orporations in this success if |

they will but heed it.

It is enterprise of this kind which is wanted to keep up the value of property in Cuarlottetown. On so vast ascale, of course it would be ruiuons. But there is no doubt whatever, that a first-class hotel in this City would pay the invest- ing capitalists iudirecily and in the end directly, far better than investments in the Banks and in Mortgages.

Every day there are brought to our notice manufacturing and other enter- prises whicu might thrive well in this Islane if mouey and energy, tempered wih prudeoce, were put iuvto them. Apply the words of the Montreal Gazette to our case: ** We want more of enter~ prise, based on the possibilities of the future, and we shall fiod, if the display of it is made, th :t, as io the ease of the Windsor Hotel, the results will speedily justify the ventures.”

An instance of natural selection through the survival of the fittest is being worked out in Australia on a great scale. The struggle is going on between the rabbit, not many years ago imported from England, and the sheep, and it long ago became evi- dent that unless the rabbits are dragged from their burrows and exterminated the sheep will soon be deprived of chance of subsistence. The prolific nature

of the rabbit requires that something be |

done without delay to check an increase in its numbers, as they are said to be spread- ing nerth and taking in a helt of 100 miles of pasture yearly. The Federal Aus- tralicn says :—

“The impossibility of feeding large flocks |

of sheep and innumerable rabbics at the same time on the same breadth of paaturage is just as great as growing wheat and hay on the same seil, There is only one alternative in this case; either the flock owners must expel the rabbits or the rabbits will expel the flock owners.”

And calls upon all the Australian Oolonies to act in concert and wage general war against the pest. One colony has already lost two million sheep through the ruinous

burrowing and feeding of myriads of rabbits |

in its partures, and the gravity of the plague is so great that it is pr: posed to pass @ general Act of the Colonial Agsemblies levying a tax on all lands whether stocked or not, to meet the coet of uni ed war upon the invadors. The rabbits must be killed iu millions, as the slanghter of ten thousaud here and ten thousand there hardiy seems te produce any not ovable havoc in their numbers. The problem work, and the Australians are waiting, like the rat-ridden Afriean did at one time. for

“r Pavuv's Cuurca -—A meeting of the con- gregstion of St. Paul’s Church was held in the schocl Koom on Thursday evening, the 7th | Dec., inst., to consider the best means for | procuring a successor to Rev. Alfred Osborne, who has accepted the reetorship of Regina, | Northwest Territories. Dr. FuzGerald, the | present rector of St. Paul’s, ansounced his intention of resiguing the rectorship in Easter | 1585, so that shuuld the congregation at that }time decide upon promvtng the in-coming | curate to the rectorshir, «r should they make | choice of some other cl-rzyman to take that | position, it will be in their power to do so.

Subsequently to De. FitzGerald’s announce- ment, adiscussion took place as to the means at the congrega'ion’s command to provide a | salary tor the new clergyman, and as to the | quarter whence it would be advisable to pro- cure him, Finally a committee, consisting of the following members of the congregation. viz :—Judge Hensley, Mayor Hooper, Messrs. Charles Palmer, John Ings, Richard Sleggett, Francis 1, Haszard, Louis H, Davies, John Ball and A. B. Warburton, wes appointed to | ¢Xamine into the financial state of the Church with power to enter into negotiations with a view to filing the position iately vacated by Mr. Osborne. This committee met on Friday afternoon, the 8th inst., when it was decided to offer a Curate a salary of $1000 per an: um |during the first two years, with the under- | standing that it would be increased to at least | $1,500 sould the congregation,in 1>85,decide | upon electing him to the rectorship then becoming vacant. The Ci mmittee, we under |stand, have also decided upon opening a | correspondence with different leading anti- | ritualist.c members of the Church of England jin Canada and the Mother Country, asking them to recommend some Evangelical Clergy- man to fill the existing vacancy. As St, Paul’s 'is a large, wealthy and infloential congrega- | tion, capable of very great development, there | can be little doubt but that a Pastor, such as they seek, will soon be procured.—Com, ~ > --—
