St. Dunstan's College. lis usual semi-annual examination of the pupils of Sc. Dunstan's College took place yesterday in the presence of His Lordship,

sishop Melnutyre, and the Revs. James McDonald, V.G., A. E. Burke, A. Mc- Donald, A. J. Melntyre, R. P. McPhee, Allan McDonald, Dr. Grant, M. J. Me-

Millen, James neas McDonald and Mr. Montgomery, Superintendent of Education, Mr. Foley, of the Savings Bank and Mr.

Roche, Provincial Librarian.

The curriculum of the College is a most extensive one, comprehending mental and natural philosophy, the languages, mathe- matics, natural sciences, English in all its branches, bookkeeping and actual business, telegraphy, drawing, ete., ete.

In the different branches the students were subjected to a searching examination, conducted by the Revs. Agus McDonald, A. E. Burke,Dr. Grant,A J. McIntyre and Messrs. Montgomery, Roche and Foley. The result proved the institution to be doing first class work, the answers of the boys being in almost every case prompt and exacs. At the close the examiners express- ed their great satisfaction at the manner in which the students acquitted themselves. Librarian Roach particularly was happy in hi sremarks,and upon‘ resuming his seat, re- ceived such a hearty cheer as would indicate that ‘the next to Old Euclid himself,” is not unpopular with the students of St. Dunstan’s.

We are happy to be able to state that St. Dunstan's College was never in a wore flourishing condition than at present, its register containing sixty-four boarders and a large number of day scholars. When so many of our farmers are able to send their sons to an Institution such as this, the old ery * hard times” should not be heard in the land. We congratulate St. Dunstan’s and its management on the well deserved success.

Successfal Artillerymen.

From the Militia Gazette, Ottawa, we learn with great pleasure that the Governor General's prize for General Efficiency has been won by No. 2 Battery, Garrison Artillery, of this city. We heartily con- gratulate Captain Moore and his officers and men on their success,as this is the third year for this Battery to stand at the head of the Garrison Artillery of Canada. The prize is awarded to the Battery obtaining the great- est number of points for state of clothing, arms and accoutrements, manual and firing exercises, company drills, standing gun drill, discipline and interior economy, and answers to questions by officers and N. C. officers. The competition this year was very keen, 25 Batteries having entered. It is gratifying to have the credit of our Island upheld by our boys in blue. The result of the shifting ordinance competition is not yet known.

Grit Party Facing Both Ways,

Monrrear, Feb. 4.

Mr. Girouard writes to his constituents at Lachine and says that the only difficulty with the ‘“‘boltevs” is on the question of Riel, whom they believe to have been in- sane. In everything else they heartily agre with Sir John and in everything else they will support the Government.

intelligent werkingmen attending the meetings of Mr. Curran declare that who- ever put up the Rielite Clorans will prob- ably lose their money.

Messrs. Mercier and MeShane arrived here last night, but the expected ‘big de- monstration” failed to connect.

They made speeches to a slim and tame audience. The Minister of Public Works, Mr. McShane said his portfolio was one of the most importanee because ‘I have a great deal of patronage, and I will do all I can for the people that sent me there.” This is a fair sample of Grit political mor- ality in this region.

L’ Acharware, a political journal, states that Prefontaine, the Rielite,called a meet- ing at Chambly, but nobody turned up and the Grit speakers went home disgusted.

The Gazette publishes to-day the Hon. Mr. Chapleau’s address, which shows the progress the country has made under a sen- sible Government; the rapid colonization which has followed the successful railway policy, and the industrial prosperity which has resulted from the National Policy. He refers to the letters of Bishop Lafleche, and Archbishop Tache’s endorsement of hi course im the Riel matter; — —.-.
