The Treatment of Fish Thieves.

Some American fishermen mean mischief that is if our telegraphic advices are cor- rect. They seem to think that they may steal our fish with impunity, because they have fifty millions and the almighty eagle at their back. In this they may be mis-

taken—though their votes are counted

THE DAILY EXAM

Bishop Courtney.

AT SPRINGFIELD, CRAPAUD AND LONG CREEK CONFIRMATION SERVICZS AND ADDRESSES, On Monday morning, Bishop Courtney visited Springtield. He held a confirma- tion service and attended the funeral of the late William Haslam, Esquire. Thirteen persons were confirmed, after which the Bishop delivered a very able and. explicit address. In, the evening he drove over to Crapaud in company with the Rev. T. W. Johnston and _ held a confirmation service at 7.30 p. m., confirming nine candidates and delivering another excellent address to a crowded church. After the service he was presented with an address, to which he made a very appropriate reply. He stayed at the rectory until threep. m., on Tuesday, when, accompanied by the rector, he left for Long Creek. There, after taking tea at the residence of Mr. Joseph Stretch, jr., he administered the rite of confirmation to five candidates and delivered an address. A number of the members of St. Paul's and St. Peter’s Churches in this city were present, having enjoyed a delightful sail up West River in the steamer Southport. Evensong was sung by the Rev. Fred K, J. Loyd, and the lesson read by Rev. 8. Weston-Jones. The unfinished Chureh (which bids fair to be a very pretty edifice) was over-crowded and many persons could not obtain admittance. After the service His Lordship, accompanied by the Rev. James Simpson, proceeded to the residence of Robert B. Stewart, Esq., Strathgartney, where he stayed all night. The visitors from the city returned on the Southport. St. Peter's Boys School Band played beauti- fully, both going and eoming, and added much to the pleasure of the trip. — <>

The Court of Chancery.

IMPORTANT DECISION.

Tue first suit under the Waterworks Act came before the Master of the Rolls to-day. A week ago an injunction was issued at the instance: of Thomas Smith against the Water Commissioners, to restrain them from entering on his land until the land dam- ages had been paid. To-day Mr. Warbur- ton, on behalf of the Commissioners, ap- plied to dissolve the injunction on several grounds, the principal one being that the Commissioners were authorized to enter and take land before paying the damages, leaving the question of damages to be as- certained and paid afterwards. Mr. Hodg- son, Q. C., argued, on behalf of Smith, that the Commissioners had no right to take land before payment.

The Master of the Rolls, at the conclu- sion of the argument, decided thatthe dam- ages must be paid before the Water Commis- sioners should be allowed to exprepriate the land, and refused to dissolve the injunc- tion, directing ic to continue until the damages were paid. In the meantime arbitrators are to be appuinted, but upon defendants paying four hundred dollars into court to meet the damages, the injunction may be dissolved.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Things Said and Bone on the Streets and Elsewhere.

Ir is too much the custom for the press of the Maritime Provinces and of Maine to set down any “tough” who figures in the police courts or any one who gets full of the ardent and makes an ass of himself, as being a native of Prince Edward Island. Time and again their action in this respect has been condemned, but they have not shown any disposition to mend their ways. A few day$ ago, at Old Town, Me,, a man drank too much liquor and went out to the woods to sleep off his debauch. He select- ed an ant mound for a pillow and was soon asleep. ‘The ants resented the intrusion by devoting all their attention to his face and head, closing the eyes through their poisonous bites and causing the face and head to appear as though a large number of bees had been stinging him. When the unfortunate man awoke he was in a sad plight and sought out a doctor who had a hard time getting the peison out of his sys- tem. The Old Town Herald, in making note of the occurrence, has the audacity to state that the man was an Islander. Of course this statement, like the others | have referred to, is devoid of the essential element. All such assertions should be accepted with a pretty large decoction of salt.

This a perience I myself had while on a visit to some friends in the country last summer.

and desiring to make themselves aequainted. I resented their attempts at

familiarity to the best of my ability, but it was no use. They got in on me every time, However, I managed to survive the on- slaught and reach my destination.

I found a big lump over each temple which interfered somewhat with the graceful pose of my new hat, and between and around these were several ‘minor ones which caused me some little uneasiness. The back of my neck and my face were also covered with smaller lumps. Jdowever, after a bathing with salt-water, and by carefully avoiding the mosquito territory, I was able to return to the house of my friend, where I received some further attendance and a good deal of sympathy, and returned to the city not much the worse for my first (and I trust my last) encowater with the regular army of mosquitoes,

Mr. Bryce has also issued another volume cailea ** Molly’s Story,” which is an admirable revelation of the state of society in ‘*Good King George’s time.” ‘* Molly ” is a country lass, of a pronounc- ed type of faithfulness in service, without education but full of common sense and selfhood. The narrative is clear, continu- ous and effective. It is a true picture of ante-rail life and doings among the high and lowly, and the rich and poor, well told and well wortha reading. Both volumes are from the press of Wm. Bryce, 31 Front Street, Toronto.

perience with mosquitoes, but few know how the festive insect manages to get in his fine work. The following scientific inform- ation on the subject is furnished by a New York Microscopical Society whe have care- fully enquired into the matter : ‘* The mos- quito bite, though occupying but little time, is aperformance of considerable interest. {t involves a selection by the creature of the proper place of attack; the firm fasten- ing of the outer ends of its labelle on the surface near this place; the sudden flexing backward of the middle of the labium (under hp) and the resultant forward move- ment of the firmly grouped, unbending, lancelike setee till they are buried in the skin; and, finally, the use of a complicated pumping apparatus at the base of the mouth parts, by means of which the creature sup- plies itself with blood. The irritation caused by the bite is supposed by some to be the effect of a poisonous saliva, although no poison gland has yet been detected.”

So much for the mosquito nuisance; now a few words about that other and more ex- pensive one—the barbed wire fence—or at least the apology for one which was placed on the Richmond street side of Market Square some time ago. When the wire was erected I predicted that some person would be injured thereby and the city would have tofoot the bill. My surmise has turned out too true. A little boy named Somers had his face seriously injured by coming in contact with the wire a few days after it was put up, and on Monday evening a let- ter from a leading legal firm was read at the Council meeting, claiming $60 damages as a result. Of course this little bill will have to be paid at once or the city will have an- other Jaw suit on its hands. By the way, this last letter reminds me that several other letters claiming damages have been received by the Council during the past few months, and a much interested public would like to know how they have been disposed of.

The Presidential campaign in the United States has begun and the usual number of slanders are in circulation. There a can- didate’s private affairs are talked about when nothing bad enough can be said con- cerning his public record. President Cleveiand’s alleged relations with Maria Halpin were worked for all they were worth in the campaign of four years ago, but Cleveland was elected by a large major- ity. In the present canvass one of the arguments used against Cleveland’s candi- dature is that he ill-treats and abuses his wife. The President and his wife were both interrogated by the ubiquitous report- eras to the truth or falsity of the story, and both denied its truth, stipulating at the time that nothing be said of their de- nial in the press as they preferred treating the slander with silent contempt. Mrs. Folsom, Mrs. Cleveland’s mother, was, however, not so reticent. In an interview, she branded the story as a foolish campaign slander without even a shadow of founda- tion, and added that ‘‘she only wished all American girls were half as happy as her daughter was in the love and care of her worthy husband.” These slanderous stories, no matter by whom started or for what purpose, only recoil upon those who origin- ate them. dent Cleveland will be re-elected by even a larger majority than in the election four years ago.
