A- MARVELOUS STORY

TOLD IN TWO LETTERS.

** Gentlemen: My father resides at Glover, Vt. He has been a great sufferer from Scrof- ula, and the inclosed letter will tell you whats @ maarvelous effect

has had in his ease. I think his blood must have contained the humor for at least ten years; but it did not show, exceptin the form of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five years ago. From a few spots which ap- peared at that time, it gradually spread so as to cover his entire body. I assure yon he was terribly afficted, and an object of pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his ago who enioy as good health as he has. I could sasily uname lifty persons who would teetify to the facis in his case. Yours truly, W. M. PHILLIPS.” , “It is boths

a duty for me to state to you the benefit I have derived from the use of

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

Six months ago I was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofnious sores. The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked eo as to cause the blood to flow in many places whenever I moved, My sufferings were great, and my life a burden. I commenced the use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, and have used it reguiarly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly weil in every respect — being now able to do @ good day's work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYER'S SARSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt., Oct.

and all Scrofulous Complaints, Erysip~ elas, Eczema, Ringworm, Blotches, Sores, Boils, Tamors, and Eruptions of the Skin. It clears the blood of all impu- rities, aids digestion, stimulates the action of the bowels, and thus restores viiality and Strengthens the whole system.

|, The Patriot has gained fresh laurals as |a Grit party organ during the late cam- |paign forthe Legislative Council. Ac- | cording to the accounts of meetings pub- lished in the Grit organ, Mr. McEachen and his cause were in bad repute all over the District. The following we quote as samples of the Patriot’s reports of the meetings :

At Elmira, Lot 47. Mr. Bowers made, says the Patriot's correspondent, ‘a powerful and eloquent speech,” at the close of which,—

‘Resolutions was submitted, asking ihe meeting to give their votes and influence to Mr. Bowers, at the ensuing election. On the motion being put to the meeting, it was carried without a dissenting voice.”

At the close of the poll at this place, the vote stood McEachen 81, Bowers 48. At Rollo Bay, the Patriot reporter said,—

“‘The meeting was orderly and well con- ducted, and the candidate, Mr. Bowers, in his aoble and powerful speech, was listened to with the greatest attention. The couple of Tories who were there, crouched and held down their heads. When Mr. Bowers had finished his very excellent speech which was listened to with marked attention, a resolution in his favor was put and carried without a dissenting voice.’

The “powerful eloquence” which made the wretched Tories hold down their heads, lost its force by election day, State of the polls, MeEachen 93, Bowers 75.

At Red Point, Lot 46, according to the Patriot’s correspondent, Mr. Bowers: “Stated the policy of the Liberal party, which at once commended itself toethe good sense and intelligence of the meeting.” Alas! for the uncertainty of human predictions, particularly Grit ones. At Lot 46, McKachen polled 95 votes, Bowers 45!! At Marie, that

‘* The Liberal candidate, Mr. P. R. Bowers, was first to address the meeting, which he did in a forcible and telling speech of nearly two houra long. He was listened to with the most earnest attention, broken cnly by the sympathetic cheers of his audience.”

Was it uot strange that this sympathy should have so sadly evaporated before election day? Here the poll stood:

he The Mailn Examines ADAM BEDE.

eee eens:

| OHAPTER LL j ow (Continued. ) f Seth was right in believing that Lisbeth would be held in restraint by timidity; and during the next three days the inter- vals in which she had an opportunity of speaking to Adam were too rare and short to cause her any strong- temptation, But in her long solitary hours she brooded her regretful thoughts about Dinah, till they had grown very near that point of unmanageable strength when thoughts are apt to take wing out of their secret nest in a startling manner. And on Sunday morn- ing, when Seth went away to chapel at Treddleston, the dangerous opportunity came. Sunday morning was the happiest time in all the week to Lisbeth; for as there was no service at Hayslope Church till the afternoon, Adam was at home, doing nothing but reading, an occupation in which she could venture to interrupt him. Moro- over, she had alwaysa better dinner than usual to prepare for her sons—very fre-

quently for Adam and herself alone, Seth being often away the entire day; and the smell of the roast- meat before the clear fire in the

clean kitchen, the clock ticking in a peace- ful Sunday manner,her darling Adam seat- ed near her in his best clothes, doing no- thing very important, so that she could go and stroke her hand across his hair if she liked, and see him look up at her and smile while Gyp, rather jealous, poked his muzzie up between them—-all these things made poor Lisbeth’s earthly paradise.

The book Adam most often read on a Sunday morning was his large pictured Bible, and this morning it lay open before him on the round white deal table in the kitchen ; for be sat there in spite of the fire, because he knew his mother liked to have him with her, and it was the only day in the week when he could indulge her in that way. You would have liked to see

.| Adam reading his Bible; he never opened

it on a weck day. and so he came to it as a holigday book, serving him for history, biography and poetry. He had one hand thrust between his waistcoast butions and the other ready to turn the pages; and in the course of the morning you would have seen maby changes in his face. Sometimes his lips moved in semi- articulation—it was when he came to 4 speech that he could fancy himself uttering, such as Samuel's dying speech tc the peo- ple; then his eyebrows would be raised, and the corner of bis mouth would quiver a little with sad sympathy—something, perhaps old Isaac’s meeting with his son, touched him closely; at other times, over the New Testament, a very solemn look wonld come upon his face, and he would

tended, which indicated the unpopularity of the Government in this Province. an eloquent and affecting speech of over two hours, in which he dealt with the general policy of the Government, he strongly condemned them for burdening the Island with a heavy tax. The mesting was enthusiastically in favor cf Mr. Bowers, A vote of thanks was tendered to the chair- man, after which the meeting quietly dis- persed.’’

How sad to think that electors so deeply ‘ affected” by the candidate’s eloquence, should part with all their good impressions befere reaching the polis! The vote at Peake’s stood: McEachen 44, Bowers 32.

Another Advance in the Right Direction

Ir has been the experience of many of our Island young ladies, that dis- appointments have followed their ambition to profit by the business open- ings in the United States, available to intelligent and educated women. Now, our P. E. Island young ladies, at least those who have a laudable pride in being self-supporting, are, as a general thing, both intelligent and sufficiently educated to credi'ably acquit themselves when thrown among strangers. But one difficulty has met them in going to the United States for employment, and that is their ignorance of book-keeping, tele- graphy, or type-writing, all of which are remuuerative and offer excellent opportunities for earning money to prudent and pains taking young {ladies. It is gratifying to know, therefore, that Principal L. B. Miller, of the Charlotte- town Business College, has just formed a female class to qualify for these very employments in the United States, and we have much pleasure in spreading the good news so that the many families in the Province, who rely upon the columns of Tae Examiner for informetion, can thus, if they so desire, advance the education of their daughters in a money making and pleasant direction. Letters of enquiry addressed to the Business College will be answered iramediately.

— A potato digger has been patented by Mr. Burton D. Prentice, of Castalia, Ohio. The Scientific American says :— ‘Its construction is such that when the machine is drawn forward with the scoop in working condition the potatoes and soil are passed back upon bars, by the shaking ot which the soil is liberated and the potatoes fall on the ground at the rear, ready to be gathered.”

every now and then shake his head in serious assent, or just lift up his hand and let it fal! again; and, on some mofiings, when he read in the Apocrypha, «f which he was very fond, the eon of Syrach’s keen-

with a handsome reception in all he at-|¢dged words would bring a delighted smile,

though he also enjoyed the freedom of

In} Occasionally differing from an Apocryphal

writer. For Adam knew the Articles quite well, as he became a good church man Lisbeth, in the pauses of attending to her dinner, always sat opposite to him and watched him, till she could rest no longer without going up to him and giving hima caress, to call his attention to her. This morning he was reading the Gospel accord- ing to St. Matthew, and Lisbeth had been standing close by him for some minutes, stroking his hair, which was smoother than usual this morning, and looking at the large page with silent wonderment at the mystery of letters. She was encouraged to continue this caress, because, when she first went up to him, he had thrown himself back in his chair to look at her affectionately and say, ‘ Why, mother, thee look’st rare and hearty thismorning. Eh! Gyp wants me te look at him; he can’t abide to think | love thee the best.’ Lisbeth said nothing, because she wanted to say 80 wany things. And now there was a new leaf to be turned over, and it was a picture—that of the angel seated on the great stone that has been rolled away from the sepulchre. This pic- ture had one strong association in Lisbeth’s memory, for she had been reminded of it when she first saw Dinah; and Adam had no fooner turned the page and lifted the book sideways that they might look at the augel, than she said, ‘ That's her—that’s Dinah.’

Adam smiled, and looking more intently the angel’s face, said ;

‘It is a bit like ber; but Dinah’s prettier, I think.’

‘ Well, then, if thee think’st her so pretty why ain't fond on her ”

Adam looked up in surprise.

‘Why, mother, dost think [ don’t set store by Dinah

‘Nay,’ said Lisbeth, frightened at her own courage, yet feeling that she had bro- ken the ice, and the waters must flow, whatever mischief they might do. ‘What’s th’ use o’ settin’ store by things as are thirty mile off? If thee wast fond enough on her thee wouldstna let her go away ”’

‘But I’ve no right to hinder her, if she thinks well,’ said Adam, looking at his book as if he wanted to go on reading.

He foresaw a series of complaints, tend- ing to nothing. Lisbeth sat down again in the chair opposite to him, as she said,

‘But she wouldna think well, if thee wastna so contrairy.’ Lisbeth dared pot venture beyond a vague phrase yet.

‘ Contrairy, mother ! Adam said, looking up again in eome anxiety. ‘ What have I done ? What dost mean ?’
