Drowning Accident.

As already reported by THE Examiner, a very sad drowning accident occurred at Tracadie harbor on Friday, the 12th inst., when two men, Joseph Campbell and Stephen McDonald, lost their lives. It appears that about noon on that day, as the fishermen were returning to the harbor from yisiting their nets, they found that a very violent sea was breaking over the bar at the entrance tothe harbor, rendering the passage extremely hazardous. One by one the boats succeeded in passing over, and all went well until a boat manned by Stephen McDonald, Joseph Campbell and Hugh McEwen approached the dangerous reef. ‘they had almost succeeded in cross- ing the point of danger, when a huge wave reared its angry crest behind, then rushing forward it broke over the boat and threw her on her side. All the occupants clung to the boat for a time, but as the boat was tossed and turned by the fierce waves the men were repeatedly cast into the sea, tiil tinally Campbell and McDonald sank be- neath the waves and were drowned. Mc- Ewen clung to the boat and made a gallant fight for his life. That he escaped death seems a miracle. The accident was wit- nessed by men on the shore, and a dory was speedily manned and started to the rescue, but such was the violence of the sea on the bar that to approach the wrecked boat meant certain destruction, so the at- tempt was abandoned, and not until the boat drifted into less dangerous water was the dory able to approach and rescue Mc- Ewen from his perilous situation, Camp bell was a young man 22 years of age, son of Donald Campbell of Grand Tracadie. Ke was a splendid specimen of manhood, standiug over six feet in height, of un- spotted character, generous and amiable disposition, dutiful son and a fervent chris- tian, His sudden and tragical death is a cause of universal sorrow. McDonald was aman about 55 years of age. His genial disposition and exemplary christian life made him a general favorite with both old and young. He leaves a wife and two daughters to mourn his loss. This sad and fatal accident has cast a gloom over the whole country. The friends of the victims have eur deepest sympathy in their great affliction.

A Lesson ia ‘Matrimony.

For nearly 700 years, with more or less re- gularity, the festival of the Dunmow flitch of bacon has been celebrated at Dunmow, Eng- land. About 600 years ago Chaucer made his Wife of Bath say in her famous prologue : The bacon was set for him, I trow,

That some men have in Essex, at Dunmow.

In olden times the conditions permitted only couples that had been married a year and a day to compete for the bacon, and the proof required to obtain the prize was thus sum- moned up io verse;

You never made any nuptial transg:ession Since you were married man and wife,

Or since the parish clerk said ‘‘Amen !” Wished yourselves unmarried again,

Or in a twelvemonth and a day

Repented not in thought any way.

The applicants were required to kneel npon sharp flints, at the Priory ot Little Dunmow, and swear that these things were true. This was the old way; but in modern times the ceremony has been turned into a show and a burlesque, and there is no limit as to the period of matrimony. At the festival on the first of this month the awards were made after a pretended tris! in court, a lawyer's clerk acting as judge, and a jury of six maidens and as many bachelors passing upon the evidence. A corn merchant acted as counsel fer the claimants, and an auctioneer appeared in behalf of the donors. Severai thousand persons were present.

Those who went to jest witnessed a whole- some example of martial happiness and de- vetleite the appearance on the the platform of Mr. and Mrs. Heard, a venerable couple, whose ages aggregated 150 years. They were the oldest couple that has ever been known toapply forthe Dunmow flitch, and their story turned ribaldry into sympathy and jest into admiration. The couple had been married about fifty years, and the husband was an old soldier, having served in the army twenty- two years. The old soldier declared, with an earnestness that carried conviction to every one, that he had loved his wife from the first day he set eyes on her, and loved her better now thanever. The wife had been sick several times and receutly had an accident, and the old man had nursed her devotedly. The more he could do for her, he said, the more he loved her. The old dame looked as smiling and happy at the old soldier's talk as she might have looked when he said the same sort of thing fifty years before. They got the flitch of bacon, and the audience that had gone to scoff went away with a lesson froma humble source as eloqaent and effective as was ever preached from the pulpit.

General Telegraphic News.

Sr Pererssurc, Aug. 15.—The cholera situation has improved, and it is hoped the stringent sanitary regulations enforced by the authoritiesfhave effectually checked the disease. There were only twelve deaths yesterday. Official reports show that throughout the stricken districts in Russia the daily average is 8,601 new cases and 4,288 deaths.

Teueran, Aug. 15.—The cholera epi- demic is raging with great virulence. The governor and wealthiest inhabitants have fled. The town is almost deserted. Mor tality in Teheran is about one hundred and tifty daily. There have been 3,000 deaths at Tabriz.

BeRuix, Aug. 15.—According to reliable depl matic information received here, China has addressed strong representations te Russie protesting against the occupation of the Pamir country by Russians as a breach of the treaty of Livadis, which fixes the frontier 100 miles north of the Aklash, where Russians are en- camped.

Boston, Aug. 15.—It is now believed that James E. Gilman, the missing member of the bankrupt firm of Gilman, Cheney & Co., has misappropriated $300,000 of other people's money and that he carried away $60,000 in cash and negotiable securities. Appearances indicate that Gilman led a double life, al- though standing high in business and social circles. The woman in the case is ssid to be in the city.

Panis, Aug. 16.—-The agents in Paris of ex Queen Natalie of Servia, are trying to bring about the total downfall of ex-King Milan. Natalie his been moved to renew

ed attacks on Milan by the spectacle of this abandoned old rouse passing weeks with his unsophisticated young son, the King of Servia, while she has been exclud- ed from her boy’s presence. The agents of the ex Queen have follewed Milan day and night until they have a record of all his dis- graceful doings and his extravagant expen- ditures. They have proof that heis living far beyond his means and that his numer- ous creditors are likely to be left in the lurch. By letting out this proof in driblets through the Paris press Natalie has alarm- ed Milan’s creditors so that now they are pressing him hard, and probably will have him in the courts before the winter. Among the most interesting excerpts from Milan’s accounts, as published at the in- stauce of the ex-Queen, are the following : ** For gambling and betting on the races, 50,000 to 70,000 francs a month ; for five mistresses, 260,000 france a year; for his ballet dancer, 100,000 to 150,000 frances an- nually for jewels, 3,000 francs monthly for flowers. His debts to money lenders are said to amount to nearly 2,000,000 francs.”

Lonpon, Aug. 12.—The appointment to a judgeship of Gainsford Bruce, the Con- servative who was elected to represent the Holborn division in the House of Com- mons, rendered a new election necessary. This was held to-day and resulted in the return of Sir Charles Hall, Conservative, without opposition. This is the first by- election for the new parliament, and it is certainly early to have one. The vacancy on the Holborn division of Finsbury was caused by the appointment of Mr. (now Sir) Gainsford Bruce, a Conservative member, to a judgeship in the Queen’s bench divi- sion, that position having been opened for him through the recent elevation «f Lord Justice Smith to the court of appeal. When Mr. Bruce was first elected for Hol- born at a by-election in November, 1858, he earried the seat by a majority of 960. This showed so large a falling off from the conservative majority in the constituency at the general election of 1886, when the late Col. Duncan had a lead of 1,701 over his Gladstonian opponent, that the liberal felt confident of capturing the seat at the general election last month. But the pen- dulum of political opinion in the district had swung back to the conservative side, and Mr. Bruce was re-elected or. July 6th by the unprecedented local iajority of 2472. This overwhelming defeat appears to have knocked all the fight out of the Hol- born liberats, as they have now permitted the conservatives to win a walkover. Sir Charles Hall, the new member, is the re- corder of London.

The Man in a Hurry.

(St. John Sun. } The latest charge against the Federal Government is that Premier Dibbs of New South Wales was not civilly treated by the Ministers. Now, it appears that Sir George Dibbs arrived in Ottewa one afternoon and proceeded ov his way to the Pacific coast the same evening. The Ministers were scattered about the country, some attend- ing to the work of their departments, some trking a rest. Only Mr. Carling and Mr. Chapleau were at the capital, Both called and had along talk with the Australian on matters affecting the relations of the two countries. The Premier was at his home in St. Ann’s, where it appears he was pre- pared to give his visitors a cordial welcome. Sir George had not the time to go, and so missed seeing the first minister. With the brief time at his disposal they could hardly have accomplished much if they had met. Sir George Dibbs is said to have informed a reporter that he came to Canada ‘‘with the special object of seeing your premier and ascertaining the views of the Canacian erermperes on the question of closer trade re- ations between your country and mine.” He also proposed to discuss steamship communi- cation, cables and other matters. If the premier of New South Wales came all the way to Canada for the purpose of discus- sing these subjects during « part of the afternoon he made a great mistake in neglecting to inform the Canadian government of the hour of his prospective arrival and the hour of hi: departure. However, Sir George saw two mivisters, had a pleasant talk with them, stated his views to the reporters, and cheer‘ully announced that on his return home he hoped to communicate with Mr. Abbott on these matters. And after all he went home from England by the shortest way. ie
