In- telligent Opposition men admit that he will be a long way ahead, with Underhay next. Georgetown sure. The prospects in Cardigan are excellent. | McDonald and Shaw are two popular men, and will, it is confidently believed, be at the head of the

poll on election day. The East Point Dis- trict is strong for the Government candid- ates, McLean and McEachen. Men who

voted for the latter last year, see no reason why they should not vote for him this year. A merchant and a farmer will make a desirable pair to represent the First Dis- trict. McLean and McKachen are popular among the farmers in their section of the

country, and are sure to defeat their op- ponents on the 30th.” —_—_—_——— -—- —- Dee +- ——------o-

The Suicide at Tracadie.

EVIDENCE AT THE INQUEST,

Own Saturday afternoon Coroner MeLeod held an inquest in the Schoolhouse at Grand Tracadie, on the body of Mrs. Joseph McAulay, the unfortunate woman who committed suicide by hanging on Sat- urday morning. The following is the evi- dence taken :—

Josspu McAvutay (sworn.)—I am _ the husband of the deceased. When I came home last night she appeared in her usual state of mind. She had been an inmate of the Lunatic Asylum and came home from there about two years ago. She was pretty well when she came home, but about a month and a half ago, she became a little droll, and at times used to talk very fool- ishly. Last fall she left the house, and we thought she had made away with herself, but she came back of her own accord about one or two o'clock in the morning, and would not tell me where she had _ been while she was away. Since a month ago and before that she was always wishing she were deadand talking very foolishly. I oftenheard her say she would hang herself, and 1 always felt anxious lest she should do so. As my two daughters were at service, and I had to be away at work myself, gmy wife was often alone. I came home night about eight o’clock, and my wife gave me my tea. She went to bed with the two children, then | fellasleep. L awoke before six o'clock this morning and called my wife. Getting no answer, 1 went down stairs and saw her hanging from the bean of the shed adjoining the porch. Before | left home yesterday morning there were no angry words between us, neither were there any when I came home at night. Two cays ago 1 asked her to send the boy to buy molasses, and she told me I had better save my money to buy crape. Then I thought she was certainly getting worse. (Rope pro- duced.) I missed this rope about a week ago, and asked my wife and the boys where it had gone to, but could not find

out. I was then suspicious that she in-

tended making away with herself. She

was always more or Jess melancholy. . Joun R. McDownartp (sworn.)—Il saw

Mrs. McAulay about sundown yesterday evening. I went into her house. She told me that her husband was down at Mr. Watts working, but said nothing about herself. She appeared to me to be about as sensible as ever J saw her, and talked

quite rational. I did net ask her how she felt. Wittram McLavucuiin (sworn.)--I went

to Joseph McAulay’s about half-past six this morning in company with Angus Me- Donald. John Smali McDonald was there when we arrived. When Michael Ready arrived he told us to cut her down. = | raised her up and John Small MeDonald cut the rope. I did not touch the body but took hold of her by the clothing. I could feel that she was cold through the clothing. Her head and face were covered with a cloth before we cut her down, and her feet were about three and a half feet from the floor.

Joun Smart McDonaxp (sworn.)—I ar- rived at Joseph MeAulay’s house before six o'clock this morning. I met MeAulay a short distance from the house, and he told me that his wife had hanged herself. |

went straight in to where she was ‘nét knowing but that life might be in her, but

I found that she had been dead for time.

Emity Watts (sworn).—-I saw Mrs. Mc- Aulay yesterday, and she appeared very melancholy. She was lamenting a goed deal, and seemed to be in despair ahout her future salvation. She thought there was no hope for her, and said it would be better for her if she were out of this world, as she was no use to herself or to those whe were around her. I heard her talk in this way so often since she came home from the Asylum, that I did not pay any particular attention to her yesterday.

After a short deliberation the jury re- turned the following verdict :

some

Royalty, took place in the Town Hall on | the evening of Thursday, June 17th, accord- |

ing to a requisition to William Sanderson, Esq., senior Magistrate, for the purpose of nominating candidates for the Local Assem- bly at the ensuing election, and to discuss the present political situation.

Wm. Sanderson, Esy., was appointed Chairman. The Hon. D. Gordon and Arch. J. Me-

Donald, Esq., were unanimously nominated (with the exception of one dissenting voice) to represent this constituency, after which both the candidates addressed the meeting at some length, and thanked the electors for their former support and their further confidence reposed in them.

After some further discussion of local matters, Mr. John Lavers was nominated, but the motion was lost.

St. Ann's School. The examination of the pupils of St. Ann’s School conducted by the Sisters of Notre Dame, was held on Thurs-

day the-17th inst. The pupils acquitted themselves to the satisfaction of the exam- iners, and the ready answers to difficult questions showed the thoroughness a .d effigiency with which the various branches of a liberal education ave taught by the good Sisters. The little girls seemed to be grateful for the attention given them by their teachers, and appeared to appreciate every effort made in their behalf. It is a boon to the community to have such care and attention bestowed on the poor little ones—many of whom were it not for the charity of the Sisters—-might receive no moral or intellectual training. rhe exhibition of plain sewing, the work of the pupils, would reflect credit om more pre- tentious institutions. It was really de- lightful to see this fine display of needle- work, Both children and teachers are to be congratulated upon the results of the year’s labor.
