, MR, PERRY'S RETURN,
A correspondent at Alberton (Apri' 27) writes: “On the arrival of the train at this station to-day, the brass band ser- enaded Perry the Noble to repay him ina manner for his vote against the Remedial Bill. This being the last opportunity they may publicly have to express their thanks for his paid services at Ottawa, the great mogu! and about a half a dozen other office seekers, with the usual num-
| ber of youngsters, who followed the band } | met the Noble at the station. After play -
jing a “Marching Home” (for good) the
| | Noble deiivered himself of a short speech,

jin which he said that when played there was

The most cheering accounts are coming in for the Conservative Candidate, Mr. Hackett, from all sections of the district. Che prospects are that Mr. Hackett will be elected by the biggest majority he ever had in a contest in this riding. It is not necestary to hire boys about the street to give him an ovation, as it is cordially given him from nearly every person he meets.”
The people of Heligoland, acquired by Germany from Eoglania few yeara ago, are loud in their praise of Prince Henry of Prussia. The reason is that the Prince recently sent them several bottles of water from the river Jordan, to be used to tize the little Heligolanders. All members of the Hohenzollern family are baptised in Jordan water and asupply is always kept on hand.

A queer pig story is told by the London Telegraph. A sow that had Jost her tail by accident had a litter of ten little pigs, but seeing that they all had tails, placed them in a row and bit off the tails one by one.
Ten thousand people visited the South Kensington and Bethnal Green Museums in London on the first Sunday on which they were thrown open. Only ten at tendants and thirty-four policemen had to work on Sunday.
The Dominion Bank statement for March shows @ marked increase in circu- lation, deposits and loans ss compared with the correspending inonth of Jast year. The increase in the circulation is larger by a million and a quarter, while the current discounts are over twelve toillions and public deposits over two millions greater.
Bradstreets says: The retail trade is fair in Montreal, Ottawaand Kingston, but general trade throughout the province of Quebec is less active owing to the damage by floods and the consequent bad roads. In some instances travellers have been re— called. Toronto jobbers report business fair, and at Halifax there is an improve- ment in the movement of merchandize with better country reads and opening of ports to navigation. The latter influence is also having a favorable effect on busiuess in New Brunswick and Prince Kdward Island. There are 37 failures in business reported from the Dominion of Canada, against 34 last week, 32 one yearago, 20 two years ago and 35 three years ago,
