"Notes and Comments.
| Victoria, B. C., is going into the ex- emption and bonus business very extensive- tly. Already arice mill has been granted ex- emption from taxes and water rates; a flour mill has been voted $10,000 aud exemption from taxation and water tax; a sugar re- finery isto have $40,000, with exemption from taxes and water rates for 20 years, and a paper mill is offered $15,000 and the
usual exemptions.
—Writing from Japan over date ef Feb. 7, Rev. Benj Chappelle says : * The days are like September days, with a little hoar frost at night, but not enough to in- jure the vegetables that make the gardens look like June. Soon, however the rainy season will be upon us and then oppressive heat. On the whole, the climate is a very trying one; it lacks the tonic in the air of American climate, and one needs to keep at his best or it will play havoc. I think that l am just as well as when at home, and never was so thoroughly contented and happy in my life.’
~The apple trade of Canada showed a des gree of increase last year that is probably not equalled in any other line of export. The number of barrels exported for the last three years is stated as follows :—
1887. 1888. 1889. To the U. K......293,931 218.019 619,217 To the U.S. ..103,232> 170840 144,618 Total exports... .402,141 293,312 771,971
It will be noted that the total export in 1889 was about double what it was in the previvus years, and that the export to the United Kingdom, where prices ruled high, was considerably over double of that. of either in 1887 or 1888, while the export to the United States was less in 1889 than in 1888. Ontario last year about trebled her previous export, and Nova Scotia about doubled hers.

—The New York Engineering News says during the coming season promises more activity than in any season since 1887. A detailed list of the variousenterprisesshows that 5,038 miles of railway are partly completed or in process of construction. 6,041 miles are surveyed or under survey, ‘and there are 2,831 miles of line not yet surveyed,
but whose projectors are pushing them with such energy that the prospects seem fair for the beginning of actual work before the close of the year. This makes a total of 14,910 miles of line in the United States which have the prospect of being complet- ed, or placed under construction before the close of the year. The total for Canada under construction is 914 miles; surveys, 438 miles; projected, 766 miles; total. 2,118 miles.
«The Outario Government proposes to amend the license law, giving municipalities power to prohibit the sale of intoxicants. The amending clause in this respect is as iollows :
‘* The Council of every township, city, town and incorporated village for prohibiting the sale by retail of spi ituous, fermented or other manufactured liquors in any tavern, inn or other house or place of pub- lic entertainment, and for prohibiting alto- gether the sale thereof in shops and other places other than houses of public entertain- ment. Provided that the bye-law, before the
of by the electors of the municipality in the manner provided by the sections -in that be- half of the Municipal Act. Provided further that nothing in this section contained shall be construed into anexercise of jurisdiction bythe Legislature of the Provinec of Ontario, be- yond the revival of the provisions of this sec- tion which were in force at the date of the passing of the British Nroth American Act, and which subsequent legislation of this Pro- vince purported to reveal.”

Racing on West River Ice.
The residents of Cornwall and Clyde River were witnesses of some sharp trotting | ¢ on Saturday evening, Ist inst, on West River ice, between Alexander Gillis’ brown mare Katie, and James Doherty’s black gelding, Rob. Mr. Alex. McDonald was the starter. The horses were called at 5° o'clock sharp, and after considerable scor- ing, which was very amusing to the ladies present, got a good send off. Rob pushed | to the front, but went off his teet passing the quarter and lost his position, which he’ did not regain. Excitement ran high as the horses scored the second time, and they) were sent off quickly. In this heat Rob took the lead again and maintained it until passing the last quarter, when he broke | badly, “and gave the heat and victory to Katie. Mr. D. Hyde and F. Nelson being judges ordered F. Leonard to pay the! stakes to the winner, after which the crowd |

Childhood.
TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH OF VICTOR HUGO. All pale and weak the mother lay,
Her forehead in the shadow bending ; Her child was singing, and its song
A melancholy charm was lending.
Death's angel hovered o'er her head,
The young voice sweet and clear was ringing; 1 heard the warning sound of death,
But etill the little child was singing.
The boy was only five years old, ow near the window he wae playing ; His i+ughter made a charming noise Like that of children gone a-Maying.
The dying mother lay beside This inuocent, sweet-voiced being, Who sang ail day and she all night, Was coughing while her soul was fleeing.
Though now beneath the cloister wa ls
The mother lies in si'ence sleeping,
The little child is singing stili,
To him there comes no thought of weeping.
Grief is a fruit which may not grow On saplings young and branches tender ; These are too young to bear its load, God is too good to be the sender. E. L. Francis.
Missionary Anniversary. The anniversary meetings of the Metho- dist Missionary Society have been quite successful. Excellent and appropri- ale sermons were preached in each of the churches on Sunday by Revs. Messrs. Read, Sutherland and Brewer, and although the day was stormy, there were large con- gregations of worshippers. The state of the weather last night was sufficient to test the ardor of the most enthusiastic lover of missions, but, notwithstanding, the audi- ence in the spacious Brick Church was fair- ly representative, and the meeting & great success.
The veteran chairman, Judge Young, in his opening address, struck an enthusiastic key note; andthe speeches were spirited and enliveniug. Judge Young referred with pride to the fact that two of Charlotte- town’s sons are missionaries in Japan, and that another had accepted a call to labor in India; while several young ladies from different parts of the Island are employed in Foreign Mission fields. Mr. Moore, in his report, which was admirable for its brevity, referred to the loss by death of Rev. Dr. Williams, one of the general superintendents, and Dr. Pick- ard, whose body had that day been laid to rest in the classic grounds of Sackville— men of holy life and widespread influence; and of William Gooderham and Senator McDonald, the treasurer of the Society, — brethren whose princely wealth and large benevolence had been made a blessing to the church and the country in which they lived.
The Society has flourishing missions in Japan, missions tothe Chinese and Indians in British Columbia, to the Indians of the Northwestern Territories of the Dominion, and to the French in Quebec and Montreal. In the latter place they have a French in- stitute of learning admirably equipped, and having in attendance a large number of young people.
The amount raised by the Society during the year was $215,775, of which the Brick Church contributed $1,183, besides a legacy of the late G. R. Beer, Esq , of $500.
The interest of the meeting last night was largely contributed to by the choir, under the excellent leadership of Mr. Harry

Tae quarterly gathering of the Charlotte- town Preachers’ Association took place at Clifton, on Monday, the 3rd inst. The president, the Rev. John Read, was in the chair. There were present the Rev. W. J. Kirby, W. H. Spargo, D. D. Moore, A M., and George Steel; also Messrs. Win. Heard, John Henry, J. D. Seaman, Henry Rackham, George Carter, Charles Bryen- ton, William Wright and Henry Smith. ' After singing, the Rev. W. ; Kirby led in prayer. in the absenceof J. T. Mellish, | Esq., the Rev. George asi: was appointed secretary. The roll was then called, and two changes were made. The plan of ap- pointments for the next three months was ‘then submitted, and, after necessary ad- justments, was passed. The financial statement showed a small balance on hand. | Superintendents then reported the action of their respective monthly boards with re- gard to the establishment of a local preach- ers’ horse-hire fund. It was then decided that the secretary be instructed to get ail the local preachers to sign the constitution; and that 100 copies of the constitution be printed. The next meeting of the Asso- ‘ciation is to take place on the tiret Monday in June, and it is to be held in the Upper In the evening of ' the same day a public temperance meeting isto be held.

The discussion was general and interesting; and the paper 1s to receive 4 fuller consideration at the next meeting.
In the evening 4 public meeting was held in the Clifton Church. The Rev. George Steel§ presided. Suitable addresses were given by Messrs. George Carter, J. D. Sea- Henry Reckham and Charles Bryen-
