NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—The General Assembly, by an unani-

mous vote, passed Principal Caven’s

resciution calling for the Bible in the 1 1

bu Cc £&CNnOOIS £

—Principal Grant says that if more money is not supplied there will have to be a reduction of the staff of foreign mis- sionaries under the Presbyterian Church of Canada.

—The Montreal Gazette calls fora ree turn showing the names of the Drummond Country railway shareholders. It in- timates that it would make interesting readiog just about this time.

— Steps are to be taken by the Presby- terian churches of Canada towards a celebration of the two hnnd-ed and fiftieth auniversary of the completion of the con- fession of Faith and Catechism by the Westminster Assembly.

—Hon. Mr. Davies has given notice of the introduction of a bill to further amend the Act respecting Judgea of the Pro- vincial Courts. This bill is simply the logical sequence of the vote of last session under which Mr. Prendergast was ap- pointed Judge in Manitoba. It provides for the appointment of three judges in the province instead of two.

—R. G. Leckie, the former manager of the Londonderry iron mines, states that the coal output of Nova Scotia is, so far this season, in excess of that of previous sears. The gold mines of the province are also in @ ptosperous condition, and are generally profipsle. Theircn industry, however, stands to lose quite heavily by the recent changed in the tariff, which will hit owners and probucts very hard, and may result in the closing up of many furnaces,

—A return was recently laid on the table of the House of Commons by Sir Henri Joly, showing the dismissals in his lepartment since July 1. It shows :—

Dissmissals for partizanship..............613 On alleged exhaustion of vote............. 8] For miscellaneous reasOn3....cccceccseees a I Total. . dibesdacdlunddenbaccceees s cae The appointments made have been to the number of...... sudadennsendeneeessscensGe — George W. Smalley will contribute

an articteon “The personal Side of the Prince of Wales” to the July Ladies Home Journal. It is said that Mr. Smalley gives a unquely interesting, close view of the Prince, touching in detail upon his great personal popularity in England, and the reasons therefor, his love of sports, his pastimes, his social duties and diversions and showing him as an affectionate son; a devoted husband and a loving father and brother.

—The London Times publishes.a table, showing thatin the ordiuary course of nature, the future rulers of Germany, Russia Greece and Roumania, will be the immediate descendants of Queen Victoria. Commenting editorially on this fact, the Times observes: “The British monarchy to-day has more definite recognition among the Courts of Europe than even a century ago, when the King of Great Britain was aleo the Sovereign of Hanover Such dynastic considerations are perhaps of less importance now than they were formerly, but they tend to develop friendly intercourse.”

—Considerable complaint is being made concerning the tardiness shown in the Charlottetown Post Offiee in distributing the foreign mail afterits arrival at the office. For some time past, it is said, the delays have been annoying and iast night the climax appeared to have been reached. The only excuse offered was that there was but one clerk in the office when the mail arrived. This excuse was simply outrage- ous for there is no reason in the world whv a sufficient staff should not be de- tailed ou duty to distribute muil matter promptly. We direct the Postmaster’s atttention to this grievance and trust that ie will see that it is remedied at once.

An Ottawa deapatch to the Montreal Witness states that the dispute over th »yeation as to whether the Columbia and Western Railway, known as the Heinze ‘oad, shonld receive a federal subsidy uiminated in a cabinet meeting and the ecision not to grant any subsidy to Mr. Heinze and his colleagues. It is under- stood that there was a divided opinion in he cabinet and it may lead to the aban- lonment by Mr. Blair of the whole Crow's Nest Pass policy outl'ned in -aaolotions now before the House. — The Cvow’s Nest Hass policy outlined in re-

Jutiona now before the House. The Heinze road was an extension of the Crow's Nest Pasa line and the promoters

PERSONAL.

Revs. Dr. James Morrison and Dr. D. Morrieon Jeft this morning for Quebec.

The Rev. J. W. Godfrey arrived in St. John, N.B., last Saturday, where he was met by Mr.Justice Hodgson.

Misses Larue and Miller and several other young ladies from the Province of Quebec, who have been attending the Con- vent de Notre Dame, left for home this morning. A number of their friends met at the railway station to see them off.

Mr. ¥.D.Ruggles, assistant Jmasier at St. Peter’s Schools, left for his home in Halifax, by the steamer Halifax, this afternoon. Mr. Ruggles won laurels at the recent examination for matriculation into King’s College, Windsor, having pass- sed at the Head of fifteen candidates,

Mr. H. Wilson, who has been on the Island for some time getting up advertis- ing albums for our steamboats, left this afternoon for Summerside, having com- pleted his work in a very satisfactory manner. The albums have been splendid- lv got up and the advertising is well displsyed and should bring good returns.

TueatricaL.—The Josie Mille Com- pany bad a very good house last evening when they presented *the comedy-drama, “The Black Flag.” This play was given iu Charlottetown four years ago, and is familiar to our theatre-goers. Last evening Miss Mills andthe company supporting her gave acapital rendition. Tonight ‘East Lynne” will be put upon the boards, Miss Mills appearing in tne dual role of Lady Isabel and Madame Vine. Lynne should draw a full house.

—Montreal Star: When British States- men get together, with their minds bent on accomplishing something towards closer British unity, they ought to courageously face the obstacles that are likely to be found in their path, and devise schemes for their removal.

— Halifax Herald : The alleged extension of the I, C. R. to Montreal consists of about four miles of G. T. R. track, 10 miles of forest, 113 miles of the tenth class Drum- mond county railway, and 33 miles more of G. T. R. track. For which we are to pay $8,000,000 at least, perhaps $10,000,000. There are already two railways between Quebec and Montreal, both of which are being operated at a loss. Yet Mr. Blair has the sublime audacity to talk of mak- ing money by the operation of his mongrel “extension.” It is just aswell for Mr. Blair that he has no reputation as a truth teller to lose.
