attended the Royal Military College at Kingston. First class certificates have heen obtained by Sergt. Major Moore,

Sergeant Sterns, Corporal Mitchell, Sap- pers Brown, Heartz, and Taylor, and second class certificates by Sapper Wake- ling and Bugler Stairs. It will thus be seen that all the detachment came out first- class excepting two. Respecting Bugler Stairs it is remarked, ‘* Bugler Stairs did remarkably well when we consider how little engineering instruction he had with account of his having to learn bugling, and we were very much pleased ; ** Sapper Heartz came out at

The Religious Population of Ulster.

know something about

4 correspondent of the *‘Sun” thinks that Archbishop O’Brien was wrong if he made the statement that more than half the people of Ulster Roman Catholic. The census of 1881 sustains the view of the orrespondent. According to the returns for that vear the religious classification was

as follows

Romenm Catholics... ii gic .). 6 < Dds 831,754 Episcopalians... .......+-.+++0+0+ 377,956 PF eeyGeOTIOe .. . 66 os Welk + Mahw dhles 466,107 tn anid. . cys cinerea 34,494 Other denominations............. 29,221

ee een eas 1,739,542

The Roman Catholies numbered 47.8 per cent of the population, or a little less than half. In 1861 the Catholic population was 50.5 per cent of the whole. The Episcopa- lians have considerably increased in rela- tive strength and other Protestant denom- inations have made small relative gains, but the Roman Catholics have not quite held their own. Whether this is due to Catholic emigration or other causes we do not know, but between 1861 and 1881 some 500,000 persons emigrated from Ulster province. Unless some striking change has taken place since 1881, the archbishop was not quite correct if he made the statement credited to him. More than 85 per cent. of the Leinster folk, nearly ‘4 per cent. of the people of Munster, and over 95 per cent. ‘of the population of Connaught are Catholics. But except in Connaught, a slight falling off in the Roman Catholic proportion has taken place in fhe past twenty years. Taking Ireland altogether, the Catholic per centage was 77.7 m 1861 and 76.6 in 1881.—-St. John ** Sun.”

Reform in Siam.

The spirit of reform has reached Siam, and people are beginning to abolish their kings. We read in an exchange that the first king, Chulaléngkorn I., on the occasion of his recent birthday, made an address hefore the representatives of the Treaty Powers, in the course of which he referred to the death of the second king, and said: ‘It has been unanimously decided after due consultation to discontinue the office, and no future appointment will be made to this position. ~All officers and departments con- nected with the office will be combined with our own immediate department, according to the laws and customs of the country, until we shall be able to devise future plans and arrangements for the welfare of the country.” So Siam is to get along with one king at a time hereafter.

+ A Narrow Escape.

The steamers America and City of Chicago had a narrow escape from a collis- ion in the fog off Galley Head, Ire. The America was just midway between Fastnet, and the old head off Kinsale, when a large steamer loomed up out of the fog not twenty yards distant, crossing her bows. A collision seemed inevitable, and the pas- sengers who crowded the decks of each were panic-stricken. The America was re- versed at full speed, and the other steamer, which proved to be the City of Chicago, went on with increased speed. The Chicago almost grazed the bows of the America—so close was she, in fact, that a person could have jumped from one vessel to the other. The next minute the vessels were hidden from each other in the fog.

A Columbus, Ind.. despatch says that the recent heavy rains did an incalculable amount of damage to the Barren fisheries. The water rose in the ponds until the dams a half dozen places. Through these fissures were swept 50,000 German carp, weighing from one to five pounds each, and over a million of carp in the spawn. These fisheries covered an area of twelve acres. The loss to the proprietor, Mr. Valentine Suelber, will not be less than $5,000, while it will take several years to put them back where they were when the accident occurred. The work of repair- ing the dam will begin at once. About one-fifth of the fish in the ponds were saved, while 2,000 have since been cap- tured.

A PITCHED BATTLE

Between Fusileers and Police.

Fusileers Victorious.

——

Lonpon, May 25.

A pitched battle between the Enniskillen Fusileers and a detachment of police was fought to-day at Aldershot. Several of the Fusileers took exception to the remarks of some of the speakers at an anti-Home Rule meeting which was in progress, and made a rush for the purpose of dragging the speakers from the stands. The police en- deavored to prevent them, when their com- rades came to the rescue and a severe fight ensued. in which the police were terribly beaten and compelled to retire. The police subsequently arrested five of the motous soldiers.

Safe Blowing in Sackville. Sackviiie, N. B., May 26. This morning Mr. Trueman, on entering

Two holes had been drilled through the inner vault, but work seemed then to have been abandoned. The smaller safe in the store below was also tainpered with, but it seems as if they had been disturbed at this, as
