Taking the Veil.

One of the grandest ceremonies which has taken place at the Mother House of the "Congregation de Notre Dame Ville Marie, Montreal, was that of last Wednesday morning. On that occasion twenty-six young ladies consecrated themselves to the service of God by the sacred vows of re- ligion, The chapel of the novitiate ‘ was filled with the parents and friends of the Sisters and Novices. In the Sanctuary were His Lordship Bishop Fabre, of Mon- treal, Revs. E. Frauchemontaigne, Chaplain of the Community, D. Levesque, 8. J., A. : O'Donnell of St. Denis, and several other

It is evident that Mr. Roach knows something about how the cost of naval vessels is so excessive in the Great Republic! The proviso, as an American exchange remarks, “is a revelation in itself.”

—The fate of the Greeley expedition to the Arctic regions has set people thinking whether the scientific know- ledge gained is commensurate with the many lives which have hitherto, and will doubtless in the future, be sacrificed by efforts to reach a point which has so far proved inaccessible. As the Toronto Globe puts it, an empty egg shell between the hands of a strong man, has as good a chance to escape as the most powerful steamers caught between two masses of ice driven irresistably on by the never- ceasing Arctic current. The fate of Greeley and his men seems to be sealed. They failed to meet the steamer sent to relieve them, and the steamer herself was sunk after turning homeward, -The sad end of these brave martyrs to a scientific craving which all experience has shown to be as unreasonable as it is insatiable, makes ove wish that the North Polar cranks would themselves man the next expedition that sets out.

At the mass meeting of the Irish National League, «at Oarrick-on-the-Shannon, on Sundays 50,000 persons were present. Thomas Power O’Connor, M. P. for Galway, delivered a speech in favor of home rule for Ireland. The meeting adopted resolutions declaring that the Irish National League will never cease its efforts until a native [rish Parliament is established. ° : A large meeting of the league was also held at Mallow. Wm. O’Brien, M. P., editor of United Ireland, made an address. He urged perseverance and determination to win the independance of Ireland from Eng- lish domination, by peaceful means if pos- sible, but to win it at all hazards. |

The Provisional Battery in Camp at Miiton.

OVER TWO HUNDRED MILITIAMEN IN ATTEND- ANCE, — LIVELY APPEARANCE OF CAMP GROUNDS, — GENERAL ENTHUSIASM,

The Island militiamen went into camp yesterday afternoon for the fire* time in the history of the Province. An EXAMINER reporter was early on the grounds and was surprised to find that already

NUMEROUS COMPANIES FROM THE COUNTRY had arrived and were vigorously at work making their new quarters as comfortable as possible. ‘The camp is situated on a fine large open field of rising ground, conifhand- ing a good view of the surrounding conntry and almost immediately opposite to Milton

Station. Close at hand there is a nice clear

sparkling stream of water, and in this re-

spect at least the men will not have to

want. There are, in all, about forty tents

erected, each of which is sufficient to accom-

modate five men. At night all the tents

are liberally supplied with straw, under

which there is first placed several layers of

spruce boughs, etc. This constitutes their

couch, and if well wrapped up with good { thick blankets, warmer or

BETTER COULD NOT BE DESIRED.

The camp is in charge of Commedant Bri- gade Major Freeland, ably assisied by Major Irving, of the Charlottetown Garri- son Artillery. The officers of the Battery present are Col. H. Beer, Major F Dogherty; Major G. Dogherty and Lieut. McDougall, of the Charlottetown En- gineers; Capt. D. Stewart, No. 3 Co., 82nd Batt.; Capt. Henderson and Lieut. W. Scott, of No. 1 Co., 82nd Batt.; Major Mabon, Lieut. Scott, Lieut. Harper, No. 4 Co., 82nd Batt.; Capt. ——--, Lieut. Bertram, Lieut. Beaton, No. 5 Co., 82nd Batt.; Capt. Alexander, No. 6 Co., 82nd Batt.; Lieut. Fraser, No. 2, King’s; Capt. Maxwell, No. 1 Prince. The Staff Ser- geants in attendance ate Color-Sergt. M. Allan, of No. 3 Co., 82nd Bait., and Sergt. J. Allan. There are in all about two hun- dred men, and reinforcements are hourly expected. The camp grounds present a VERY LIVELY APPEARANCE,

everything is bustle, whilst the greatest enthusiasm prevails, both among oflicers and men. There seemed to be a determi- nation on the part of everyone to make the present meeting a complete success, and we feel assured that such will be uhe case. Dr. J. Warburton who takes the place of Dr. Creamer as Medical Officer of the 82 Batt., completed his inspection yesterday after- noon. Atsunset the camp was fairly settled down, and soon afterwards the tent lamps were lighted, rations served, and perhaps it is meedless to add, that after the day’s exertions, poor appetites were at a complete discount. To-day work begins in real earnest, and it is hoped that by twelve days, the length of time the camp is to last, every man will be so thoroughly drilled as to insure a most favorable report from Jeneral Luard who will probably inspect the camp. Every evening a choice pro- gramme of music will be given by the efficient Band of the 82 Batt. Not must it be forgotten that the Montague Compan) brought their own musician,

A VERITABLE HIGHLANDER,

the inspiring strains of whose bagppipes keep incessantly before one’s mind the onward march of the Campbells. It is but a pleasant drive out to the camp grounds, and a cordial invitation is extended to all vistors having an inteerest in our Island Militia. They would be ample repaid for their Jost time by the noyelty of the scene, the music from the Band, not to overlook the Highlander and. his bagpipes.
