An Imperial Customs Union. —- = Tue chief obstacle which many persons
see in the way of a closer commercial and political union of the British Empire is the
supposed impossibility of persuading the
veople of the Mother Country to consent pe} ;
to the imposition of differential customs duties favoring the trade of the Colonies.

Prince Clerical
Tue quarterly meeting of the Clerical Association was held on the 12th inst.. at Milten. There were present the \ en. Archdeacon Weston the Revs. W. H. Sampson (President), J. Simpson, Fred KE. J. Lloyd, C. F. Lowe, H. Harper and Lk Daniel. The clergy were most hospitably entertained af the Rectory by the Rev. W. H. and Mrs. Sampson, and the bright and happy day spent there will not forgotten by them. The morning session began at 11.30 with the usual Soflice, the Rey. W. H. Sampson, who presided, giving @ very” appropriate introductory address. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read and confirmed, an excellent paper on the subject ot Bible classes was read by the Rey. C. F. Lowe, rector of Summerside. Lt was full of suggestivenese,and the methods advocated by the reader of conducting & Bible class will, we are confident, be put into practice by others of the clergy, and we trust with success. The paper pro- yoked a long and deeply interesting dis- cussion. The afternoon session was opened at 3 o'clock. A heacty and unanimous welcome was extended to the new Arch- deacon of Prince Edward Island (who was not present at the morning session), by his clerical brethren, to which he most kindly and lovingly replied. It was moved by the Rev. James Simpson, seconded ‘by the Rev. H. Harper, and resolved that the members of the Prince Edward Island Clerical Association do express to the Bishop their entire satisfaction with the appointment of the Archdeacon, and that the Secretary be instructed to communicate the same to His Lordship. {The wisdom of the Bishop's choice was abundantly shown by the exceedingly hearty way in which Archdeacon Weston-Jones was received. A paper was read at this session by the Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd onthe subject of improving the Diocesan Church Society. Much was said relative to this important matter and all felt the great need there was for making'the Diocesan Church Society a greater power for good than it now was. The subject was left over for discussion at the meeting of the clergy in August when the Lord Bishop of the diocese will be present.
The desirability of bolding missions throughout the parishes on the Island was then discussed. That such missions were necessary al! the clergy evidently felt, but
ones,
soon be
no action was taken in the matter. The Rey. James Simpson introduced the
subject of the observance of Ember Days, and an interesting discussion ensued. The

trade reciprocity between any two countries | of the Empire are those treaties between the | United Kingdom and certain foreign countries which ‘expressly preclude preferential fiscal ti eat of British govuds in the Colonies | ant Dependencies of the British Crown,’ It seems strange that the government of this country should have agreed to conditions of this sort. We find it dificult to understand “ ugland, of all countries, should thus allow her hands to betied. No other nation
is in the same position. We might just as well agree to have lreland dealt with on the Colonies. Of course, such tre \ties stand in the way of the realization of

which are—as a result of the ‘* Unrestrict- ed Reciprocity” agitation—supposed to exist in Canada, Mr. Bull said :—
** This direction of events could be chang- ed by drawing together the bonds of union which uuite the Motuer Country to the Colonies, by enlisting them in the ranks of defence, by giving them a voice in Imperial deliberations, and conceding them advantages vver the rest of the universe in their commer- cial dealings with this county.”
it is stated that this proposal did not evoke a single expression of dissent !

meeting was closed by the Benediction, which was given by the Archdeacon. Even- ing service was held in the parish church of Milton, at 7.30, at which all the clergy and a large congregation were present. The singing was very hearty. The prayers were read by Reverend C, F.

A CASE OF WIFE DESERTION, A DRUNK AND DISORDERLY AND A SCOTY ACT CASE BE- FORE HIS HONOR THIS MORNING.
A NOT very prepossessing-looking indi- vidual named John Roberts, a bvat-builder and housw carpenter by trade, and hailing from Newfoundland, appeared before His Honor this forenoon charged with desert- ing his wife Rebecca, and neglecting to make provision for the support of herself and family. The witnesses examined were the defendant’s wife, (a low-sized, sharp- featured woman of middie age), Rachel Nicholson, with whom Roberts lodged, Captain Paoli, with whom he sailed as mate since April last, Pelice-Sergeant Cameron, who brought him from Pictou yesterday and Frank Crechan, a workman on the waterworks.
The evidence showed that the com- plainant and the prisoner were married at Boone Bay, Nfid., fifteen years ago, and that four children were the result of the union—three of whom are now living. In July last Roberts left Newfoundland for Sydney, ©. B., to look for work, and his wife saw nothing of him until May last, when he again visited St. John’s in Capt. Paoli’s schooner, and took away two of the three children, ostensibly to attend to their education. During the husband’s ab- sence the ouly help Mrs. Roberts receiv- ed from him was in the shape ofa * half- pay’ note, upon which, however, she only realized $5, and the Newfoundland Govern- ment, which paid her expenses here, had to support her. She heard that he was living here with another woman, and came on, arriving in this city on Bionday evening. On Wednesday morning, she swore out a warrant for the arrest of her husband, and he was arrested at Pictou, whither he had gone incompany with the woman with whom he was living, the same afternoon. Sergeant Cameron went to Pictou after him, and brought him back last evening.
Roberts, in August Jast, went to board with a woman named Nicholson. He was employed as a laborer by the waterworks contractors, and was known to his fellow- employes as John Smith. | In October last the girl with whom Roberts left for Pictou, on Wednesday, also arrived at Nicholson’s. She gave her name as Qoles, and said she was from St. John’s. Mrs. Nicholson hired her as a servant, aud she and Roberts oc- cupied the one room, in which, however, there were two beds. Mrs. Nicholson was ignorant fof the fact that Roberts had a wife in St. John’s until Tuesday last, when thecomplainant (Rebecca Roberts) appeared on the scene. Roberts was sick

off and on all winter, ‘and fell behind in his board, but the Rev. Mr. Jones, to whose church he said he belonged, helped jsupport him, He and the fgirl left Mrs. | Nicholson's for some time last winter, and went somewhere else to board, but after- wards came back. On the Ist of April last he engaged with Oaptain Paoli as mate and made a very good officer. He ‘gave Mrs, icholson some money for his wife and said he would give her some when he got it. His next act was to elope with the girl Coles to Pictou, where he gate his name as Coles. Roberts, when asked what he had to say, | stated that he was sick a good deal of his time, and could not get much money to send his wife, with whom he found it hard

only keep quiet. His Honor remanded the trial in the Supreme Court. Charles Warn was fined $4 or 20 days for being drunk and disorderly, and a Scott Act case was further adjourned.
