A Weattuy Movse.--As Mr. Angus Me Donald was meving a counter yesterday in the Railway Hotel, Truro, he found a mouse’s nest, made of a twenty dollar,atwo dollar, and a twenty-five cent bill. The $20 billis too badly cut up to be of any service. Itis thought that the mouse was under the influence of liquor when it made its nest.—Hz. Herald.
‘Our correspondent ‘City Councillor” and an Ex-City Councillor seem to forget for the none that the teachers of Government schools in the City receive from the Provincial Treas- ury about $6,000 ayear. An article on the subject crowded out of to- lay’s issue,
Ar the Stipendiary Magistrate’s Court, this forenoon, Joseph Valley, drunk and disorder- ly, was fined $4 and costs, or 14 days; Francis McAdam, fcr interfering with the police dur- ing Valley’s arrest, was fined $10 and costs, or 14 days: William Corish, arrested on com- plaint of his father fer disorderly conduct, was tined $2 and costs, or 8 days, to be exacted on the next complaint.
Ar the regular service, last evening, the Rev. John Lathern, the popular and univer- sally esteemed pastor of the Prince street Methodist Church, intimated that on next Sunday evening he would deliver his last ser- mon to his present congregation. We feel that, by the rev. gentleman’s removal, our Metho list friends lose the services of a most assiduous and Christian pastor, and the com- munity a genial and thorough gentleman.
A girl named Annie Rafuse, narrowly escap- ed a horrible death at Kentville, N. S., a few days ago. She attempted to wade across the, creek between Long Island and the Wickwire dyke, and stuck fast in the mud. The tide was coming in, and it was only by the merest chance that her cries for succor were heard. When assistance at length reached her it required the united efforts of four men to extricate her from her perilous position.
P. E. L anp tHe Fishsry Awaryp.—The Government of P. E. L, in the joint address of the Legislature to the Government of Can- ada, set forth the fact that the Railway, the chief Public Work in the island, is charged to it; that Newfoundland gets $1,000,000 out of the Award; that P. E. IL. has‘a still better claim, etc. They recite the Treaty of Wash- ington. P. E. 1. makes o1t a good case.—/t, John Telegraph.
Ar Tuoro.p, Ont., on Thursday, one Wm! Alexander of that town approached another, from Lundy’s Lane, and asked if his name was Charles Garrett. Being answered in the affirmative, Alexander said ‘‘die,” and with the word drew his revolver and fired, the ball lodging in the region of Garrett's stomach. Alexander gave himself up to the authorities and was immediately tried before the police magistrate and pleaded guilty. He said he shot Garrett because he (Garrett) had seduced his (Alexander’s) affianced wife.
THE prevalence of small pox in Ottawa cre- ates considerable alarm. The papers are, in a praiseworthy manner, urging on the civic authorities the necssity of at once taking iag ateps to starip out the epidemic which is
ecting one district of the city. The Separ- ate School Board of Management have de- cided to report in favor of closing the separate schools until the summer is over. It “is ex- pected that the public schools will follow the | example. At present there is not the slightest | danger to visitors, as the principal hotels are in a part of the city entirely apart from the in- fected districts.
Tue Winnipeg Times, of the 4th inst., con- tains an account of an interview with a large number of Indian chiefs and head men who had just arrived. They were from Fort Qu’- Appelle, with their interpreter, Mr. David Prince. They were in camp on the prairie, within a mile from the city, resting after their long and tiresome journey, preparatory to call- ing on his Honor the Lieutenant Governer, to lay before him an exposition of their grie- vances. The Chiefs complain that the pre- mises made in the treaty twenty-five years
o at Qu’Appelle had not been fulfilled, and they also complained bitterly of their treat- ment by the Indian Agent at Winnipeg since their arrival, in not furnishing them provi- sions when requested —representing themselves as being in a starving condition.
We have been requested by the Rev. Mr. Lathern to publicly thank the gentlemen of this city who presented him with a sufficient sum to defray his expenses ia a trip across the Atlantic and return. The presentation, we uaderstand, was entirely a matter of surprise to the Rev. gentleman. Some time ago, while suffering from ill-health, his medical ad- visers informed him that a cessation of labor and a sea voyage would likely restore him to health. A nuinber of friends who had learned that it was the intention of Mr. Lathern to visit his rative native country in accordance with the advice of his medical attendants, sub- acribed a sufficient sum to pay his expenses, and urged him to accept it as a token of their esteem and respect for him. Mr. Lathern’s
ublic ministry in this city will close on Sun-
y evening next, when he will preach at the
usual hour in the Methodist Brick Church.
