The Patriot has discovered a grievance— manure is being yarded on the St. Peter's Road, causing a ‘‘ nuisance most offensive te the people living in the vicinity or who have to pass it in going to and from.” How keen our contemporary is now in discover- ing a nuisance. During the Stewart regime, —notably in thé month of May, 1878,— twenty times as much manure might be seen piled along this same St. Peter’s Road, emitting a stench—on account of the sea- son—beyon:! all comparifon more offensive than at present. But the Patriot said ‘never a word.” We are assured on good authority that the Patriot’s statement that the ‘Minister of Public Works, on being expostulated with on the matter, laid the whole blame on the Supervisor—Mr. Hol- man,” is untrue, as A. A. McLean, Esq., is, we learn, the only person who complain- ed to the Department on the’ subject, and he received no such reply as the Putriot asserts. The Patriot, in dealing with the Public Work’s Depertment, has entirely overstepped the mark. By continually pressing false and petty chargea ‘against Mr. Ferguson he has disgusted fair minded people, so that if he were to get hold of a real grievance he would not be believed.

Tue tea and entertainment in the B. C. Church, last night, was well attended. A large number took tea, and from the appear- ance of the table, we should say all ought to have been satisfied. Mr. William Knight, the leader of the Choir, has had a good deal of experience in getting up entertainments, and hence we expected an excellent programme, and§were not disapointed. Where all aid so well, ‘we cot care to particularize.

Tue brig Parnell, owned by Michael Foley, Esq., Alberton, cleared from Georgetown for Queenstown for orders on the 9th inst., with a cargo consisting of 27,000 bushels of oats and 520 pieces of deal. The Parnell is a new vessel, built and launched by the owner this fall. Her name is quite appropriate for the present voyage.

THe inmates of the old Lunatic Asylum were, on Wednesday, removed to their new quarters at Faleonwood, without accident. .

On SarurDAY information was received in Montreal that negotiations were im pro- gress between an individual and two large tirms in New York with the object of hav- ing a large quantity of forged Canadian pos- tage stamps printed. A warrant was issued and on ‘Tuesday High Constable entered the stuly of Edouard Narbonne, Chaboiles Square, and the literature was removed and placed in custody. Narbonne was born in the village of St. Remi, of humble but hon- est parcuts. While a boy he read many stories about great French nobility and this lel to his astonishing his friends by signing his mame ‘*DeNarbonne.” This step toward aristocracy soon grew tame and he pretixed ‘* Darmaniac” to his name, which soon grew at the other end also by addition of ‘* Lara.” His name finally read **Jean Jacques Darmaniac Edouard De- Narboune Lara.” He sought renown in the world of letters by several works under nom de plume of Chas. LePineor. In these, it is hinted, there were evidences of abun- dant plagiarism. However, in 1876, he was naturalized as a British subject, al- though born under the name of Count de St. Roy. This climax of absurdity drew upen his head ‘‘curses not load but deep’ from » large circle (of friends. His ambi- tion tinmally assumed a different character, and longing to be rich he sent letters to two large firms in New York, enclosing three-vent Canadian postage stamps to be copied, his orders amounting in all to $100,. 000 value in stamps. On authorities here learning of the affair they at once com- munieated with the firms, who acted up- rightly by sending back all the Count’s let- ters, with sample stamps. A warrant was accordingly issued and Narbonne was taken into custo ly,

ABSTRACT OF ANNUAL REPORT.

Tux Annual Meeting of the Diocesan Church Society was held at St. Paul's Schoolroom on Wednesday evening. In

a the absence of the Lieut. Governor, His Honor Judge Hensley presided. After, singing and prayer, the Rev. D. Fitzgerald, Secretary of the Society, read the report, of which the following is a brief abstract :—

THE GENERAL REPORT.

The Cnmmittee report that the Churches at Georgetown, Mount Stewart, Cherry Valley, and the Barrens, are still without the ministrations of a resident Minister. Georgetown is, however, supplied with the services of a Catechist when it is without the services of an ordained clergyman. The vacancy at New London has been filled by the Rev. T. B. Reagh. The resolution of last year with respect to the payment of Ministers. who receive a grant from the society, has been found te work well.

CHARLOTTETOWN —ST. PAUL'S.

Services have been well kept up during the year, and generally well and regularly attended. The Sunday School keeps up its numbers, its interest, and is well supplied with teachers. Supplementary Bazaar yield- ed $193—making 42,160 in hand to build a new church ; the ‘‘ Mite Society’s” receipts fro the year are $465.19—-swelling the amount obtained by means of it since its formation to $577.19. During the year there were in connectien with the Church 9 marriages, 31 baptisms, 10 burials, and 1,500 pastoral and other visits. Twenty- seven were confirmed by the Bishop ; and twenty-eight communicants were added to the list during the past year. Bible Classes for men and women have been re- sumed.

CHARLOTTETOWN—ST. PETER’S.

The Church was consecrated on St. Peter’s day. Both the interior and the ex- terior of the Churech have been much inm- proved. Services have been continued as usual. The Bishop, on the day previous

ry “

ito the consecration administered contirma-

tion to 16 candidates—10 males and 6 females. The Sunday School has more than held its own. His Lordship the 3ishop was present at the public closing of St Peter's School, at the end of the year, and distributed the prizes to the successful pupils of both the boys school and the junior department. Rev. Mr. Hodgson acknowledges the assistance rendered by Mr. Bambrick, as curate, since his ordina- tion in September last. The receipfs for the year were :—Coliections, $1,512.05 ; legacies, $2,324.88; donations to finish Church, $789.96 ; sewing society, $381.67 ; Sunday School, $38.06; total, $5,046.56.

MILTON AND RUSTICO.

The Archdeacon reports ithat during his absence the church services were satisfac- torily performed by Rev. T. B. Reagh ; and since his return the services have been regularly performed. A service has, by re- quest, been extended to Milton River Sta- tion. The Bishop’s visit is to be remem- bered. His Lordship confirmed in the par- ish 20 females aud 8 males. Receipts: A handsome communion service from Miss Holroyd ; a chancel stove, from Mrs. Dis- ney ; a tower and bell from the parishion- ers, valued at $359.66 ; offertories and col- lection, $325.56 ; 8. P. G. missions, $33.41; D. ©. 8S. subscriptions, $72.85.-—Total, $791.48.

ST. ELEANOR’S AND SUMMERSIDE.

* Rev. Mr. Richey reports tiat his work has progressed without interruption. Thirty- nine persons were Confirmed by the Bishop, of whom thirty-three have become com- municants.

ALBERTON,

Rev. Mr. Dyer’s parish was visited early in the year by small pox, and Alberton and iis suburbs were under quarantine. After- wards measles became very prevalent, to- gether with scarlet fever, diphtheria, and whooping cough. But he should have come through the battlefield without being wounded at all, where it not that one day, while ont visiting, his horse ran away, and he was thrown out of the wagon and badly hurt. Falling on the rail of the bridge, he thinks, saved his life. ‘Till this accident, he had been able to fill all his appoint- ments; and he is happy to report that at Alberton, Cape Kildre, Montrose, Cascuin- pec Village, and Lot 6, the services have been well attended, and, apparently, ap- preciated. Celebrations, 17; marriages, 3 ; baptisms, 26; burials, 11; pastoral visits, 414,

CRAPAUD AND SPRINGFIELD.

Rev. Mr. Jonnsron reports that Church work here ‘‘ pursues the even tenor of its way.” The number of Bible classes have increased and the Sunday Schools continue to give satisfaction. Seventeen persons were confirmed—and more were reacy to ratify their baptismal vows but stormy weather prevented. Burials, 9 ; marriages, 1; baptisms, 6. Receipts: For S. P. G. mission, $21.66; D. C. 8. subscriptions in 1878, $58.60; in 1879. $52.50 ; tea meet- ings at Crapaud, about $459; Algoma missions, $7.46; Sunday Schools, $3.53; subscriptions, $215.50.—T otal, $809.25.

eventy-five years of age, another was blind. | James Easton, Esq. (Catechist), reports |

that in the absence of a Clergyman, Sunday services were regularly kept up morsing and afternoon, with a very fair attendance. Special services were also held on Hely- days aud in Lent. The visits of Rev. Messrs. Richey and Hodgson, at Christmas and’ Easter are- acknowleeged. Sunday School is taught every Sunday, and is weil attended. The Church has been repaired

atac st of $194. The receipts amount te

$324.50,

The parsonage has been repaired and the graveyards have received attention. Total collections during four months, $169.81 ; services and sermons, 66; baptisms, 17 ; burials, 4; celebrations, 5.

The following Resolution was moved by Charles Palmer, Esq., and seconded by Rey. T. Johnaton :—

Rey. Geo. W. Hodgson moved, seconded by Rev. A. Osborne :—

Resolved, That this meeting desires to ac- knowledge with gratitude to Almighty God, the blessings which He has vouchsafed to this Province during the past year; and to express

rm thankfulness to those Home Societies who

have for so many years materially assisted our Church.

Rev. T. 8. Richey moved, seonded by by the Archdeacon:—That this meeting sympathises with the missionary operations of our Church, and is glad to hear of its success, and of its cgutinned desire to ex- tend its operations throughout the world.

Rey. T. B. Reagh moved, seconded by Rev. D. FitzGerald :—

That the officers of the Society and members of the Executive Committee be the same as last year ; that the name of William Pidgeon be added to the list; and that of Mr. Thos. Adam Millman ve substituted for Thes, Mill- man ; that Mr. Morson be appointed treasurer in place of Rev. Geo. W. Hodgsen, resigned ; and that Mr. F. T. Newbery and H. J. Cun- dall, be auditors for the ensuing year.

Temperance Megrines.—The fourth ef the series was held last evening. The speakers were Messrs. J. B. Codéper, J. P. Tanton, L. Youmans, of Ontario, and O, H. Swift. The singing throughout was good. ~.Several more persons signed the pledge. The fifth meetin,: will be held in the Division Room this evening. Rev. G. W. iodgson will be the fir st speaker.

Quick Worx.—Another instance of the great facilities for loading grain at this port is that of the ‘*John F. Robertson,” which cleared on Wednesday, with a cargo of 35,104 bushels of oats, and 255 pieces of deal, with which she was loaded in four days.

Astonishing Success.

It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderful qualities be known to their friends in curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No per- son can use it without immediate relief. Three doses wiil relieve any cage, and we consider it the duty of all Druggists to re- commend it to the poor dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask your Drnggist about it. Sample Bottles to try sold at 10 cents.. Regular size 75 cents. For ale by all Druggists.

' \ TK have great pleasure in informing our Customers that our first quarters business has been very satisfactory ; not only has the custom of our pre- decessor been maintained but largely augmented. The char- acter, style and prices of our Goods have given great satistac- tion. We have still on hand a Good Stock of General and Fancy DRY GOODS, such as few houses here can show, and at prices that defy competition. Our DRESS MATERIALS, Mantles and Cloths of every description are having a good run, whilst our Fur Goods are going off in good style. The ‘gentlemen find it economical to buy from us their Ulsters, Over- coats and Reefers, as well as their Shiris, Linders, Ties, &c. At this season we would call special attention to our beauti- ful stock of FANCY WOOL WORK—in every shape and form, besides Wools of every description. j Our CARPETS are, without doubt, the cheapest in the city, and have sold well. Intending purchasers will serve their own interests to call ere they all go. It is not every day such oppor- tunities occur for furnishing at a cheap rate.

In the work we have given ourselves of giving “ Good Goods for little money,” we have so far had the co-operation of the Public, which, if continued, cannot fail, in the end, to largely benefit us and all who favor us with their custom.

We have made up our minds to gain and deserve a Large share of public patronage and support, which we are sensible will be the result of industry, courtesy, and an assiduous} attention to each of our numerous customers,

tas well as to each branch of our

business.

Mantie and Dress Making is done on the premises by the Misses CurRIE.
