Tae Convent de Notre Dame opens on Monday next, the 3rd of September. So weil known is this institution, that it meeds no recommendation from us. Its reputation asa first class boarding school has been maintained from the beginning. But year after year it seems to improve, and it now offers induce- ments to pupils which they cannot readily obtain in the Provinces. The course of iastruction in all branches, English, French, Music, Drawing, etc., is excellent, and the accommodation for the pupils as regards boarding, lodgings and recreation, cannot be surpassed. ‘Those who intend sending their daughters to a well conducted boarding or day schocl should, before going elsewhere, become acquainted with the special induce- ments offered in the Convent of the Con- gregation de Notre Dame.

Tue men who left the Island to work on the G. A. & E. Short Line Railway had rather a rough experience after work on that read had been suspended. The St. John Telegraph aays the laboring men, on the road, had not received their monthly pay for some time, and when thrown out of employment were, in many instances, without a single dollar to take them where work could be obtained. One in- stance of this kind was the case of eighteen P. E. Island men. As $30 was the sum total of their combined wealth, they were compell- ed to walk to the nearest port. There they hired asmall schooner to convey them to the Island, after which they had sufficient money left to buy two biscuits each, This was their stock of provision, not only for the voyage but for two days on which the schooner was becalmed before starting.

The resident clergymen were also present and assisted at the close of the meeting in forming a branch of the Alliance at Souris. Prom the tone of the meeting and from the determined stand taken by clergymen of all denominations in behalf of temperance it looks as though the Seott Act was going to be enforced in good earnest in King’s County from this time for- ward, —Com.

Not only the loss of life but the thousands of wounded left, equiring careful nursing and kind attention, and the abject poverty to which those who remain have been suddenly reduced, call for aid and sympathy all the world over. The Mr. Edward Newbery whose activity courage and self-devotion, and whose up- flagving energy in the relief of the poor and distressed, has called forth such eulogiums from the Standard’s correspondent, is a native of this Islan’, and a brother of Fenton 1?

A Mysrery.—On Friday, August 11th, while two men were engaged puliing down an old house in Bishop street, Loadonderry, a human hand was discovered between the ceiling, fastened to the roof. The hand, which was evidently that of a woman in good position, is in an excellent state of preserva- tion. Apparently it was torn violently from the wrist. The nails are three-eights of an inch longer than ordinary finger nails. The house was built about the year 1802.

Her World’s Hair Restorer quickly cleanses the scalp, removing Dandruff, and arrests the fall; the hair, if gray, is changed to its natural color, giving it the same vitality and luxurious quantity as in youth.
COMPLIMENTARY. “My hair is now restored to its youthful color; I have not a gray hair left. Iam sat- isfied that the preparation is not a dye, but acts on the secretions. My hair ceases to fall, which is cer- tainly an advantage to me, who was in danger of be- coming bald.” This is the testimony of all who use Mrs. S. A.

expression of many who have their gray hair restored to its natural color, and their bald spot covered with hair, after usin
