Tar bazaar in the Market Hall last evening may safely be numbered among the successes of the season. An immense number of people were present. All classes and creeds were re- presented. All were well pleased. The management left nothing undone. The different tables were well patronized, the lwly and gentlemen attendants being kept hard at work throughout the evening. The tea and refreshment tables appeared to possess Particular attractions, and were always sur- rounded with customers.

cheering.) This is the spirit of the Con- vention in Chicago, | am surfty to know they have any representatives in Scotland. Cries of ‘‘ they are not Scotchman.”” That Convention, besides being attended by delegates honestly in sympathy with Ire- land, had delegates of a different stamp. Apostles of outrage and murder who have paid the outrage mongers of England Redmond, a delegate of the Irish Parlia- mentary party, explicitly declared before that Convention that it was the ain of that party to effect the entire separation of Ireland from England, and their policy was to make the government of Ireland by England impossible. Do you think it infamous to restrain these men? (Cheers). Parnell threatened the House of Commons, under the specious guise of warning, that if the Coercion Bill were passed, there would be a renewal of This grim sug- gestion may prove the death warrant of some of us.

Sir Lyon Playfair resumed the debate on the Coercion Bill in the Commons. While admitting the difficulty in certain cases of procuring convictions in Ireland, he said the facts were not so serious as the Govern- ment alleged.

After reading the speech the House of Commons opened with nearly all the members present.

Sir John moved that the Governor- General's speech be the order of the day for consideration to-morrow, but this was put aside when Mr. Weldon, of St. John, moved that’ the Clerk of the Crown in Chancery be instructed to produce to- morrow copies of all returns of poll books, documents, etc., respecting the election of the member for Queen’s County, N.

My Hoepe.

BY REV. N. MACKAY,

My path is rough and dark and steep, Night shadows overhang my way;

And wearily I toil and weep,

And long for Home, and rest, and day; Yet onward ceaselessly I press,

For I discern the golden gleam,

Of coming morn! O Sun of bliss ! Eager I wait thy cloudless beam.

Myself I loathe; for deep in shame, With aching heart and streaming eye, Consumed by passion’s blighting flame In sin and sorrow prone I lie.

Yet purer than the virgin snow,

And brighter than the crystal light, My bloodwashed spirit yet shall glow, Spotless and clean—divinely bright.

No rest ! 1 hear the battle cry; Countless the foe, and keen the strife, The slain are many: strewn they lie: Defeat is deach—the Prize is Lite.

And I shall win the prize:—a path

My valiant captain cleaves for me

And through the myriad brood of wrath, He leads me safe to victory.

O living, loving Christ !—from Thee

This cheering, longing hope I bring;

My inmost wish is but to be

Hid in the covert of thy wing !

The power, glory, victory,

Saviour, Brother, all are Thine;

But blessings sweet thou givest me,

For Heaven's cternal Home is mine. Chatham. N. B., March, 1887.

Oyster Breeding in Germany.

Attempts to breed American oysters in German waters appear to be unsuccessful, judging from recent consular reports. Learned scientific opinions have been given to show that the attempt to naturalize the American seed oysters must always fail. Consul Goodwin, of Annaberg, notes the latest experiment to test the practicability of the scheme. In all 275 barrels of Ameri- can seed oysters were planted. The out- come of this experiment will be closely watched as definitely deciding the question. Oysters are a great luxury in Germany. The average German never eats oysters. A dozen raw cost from 60 to 72 cents out- side of the free cities. The market for American canned oysters is widening, Baltimore packed oysters seems to have the most attention paid to them. In the free cities of Hamburg and Bremen the tariff regulations are not enforced as in the rest of Germany, and oysters are cheap and good. The extensive exportation of Ameri- can o;sters to Germany is not advised. The consul states that if it were not for the high tariff American oysters could be sold in Germany for less than half what the native oysters cost.
