act which covered John Frederik k Young

with honor, and a pull, was described from

e ? the pulpit on Sunday by his fellow Islander, the Rev. L. G. Mocneill, as follows

‘4 young min on his way to work sees the ace dent thst hasbefalien the boy, rushes for a life-buoy, over his own shou der, courageously leaps into the tem- pest -t wsed waters of the bay, leaving the e vd of the life-liue in the hands of two men on the shere. Bravely he breasts the waters, striking out for the sinking child lu time he reaches him, lifts him in his arm«, and signals to the men t» pull them t» land. Alas, through csrelossness or oversight, the rope has been allowed to slip from the hands of those to whom it was en- trusted, and th: swuamer’s cal! for help falls in vain apm the esrs of the assembled crowd that line the embankment. Efforts are made to launch a boat and put out for the resue of the brave young man who still gallantly struggles with his helpless bur- A dery ‘s liunched, but instantly sinks. A boat is obtained, but 1s s aashed avainst the wharf. O:her effuits are put forth, but no hand is strong enough, no plan is wise enough, no expedient is suceessivl in reaching the young hero who jor nearly an hour is tossed and battered by the waves of the bay until, utterly exhausted by the hopeless struggle aid despairing of he!p fromthe excited and witless crowd on the bank, he gocs duwn beneath the sea. It was a brave att-mpt— the quick perception of help wanted, the unhesitating resolve to do what he could, the wide presence of miad that thought of the life buoy, the noble pluck with which he sprung at the risk of his life into the water, the heroic struggle to reach and save the object of his attention, the per- sistent battle with death for one long hour that must have seemed as a day. There is something so splendid about that young man’s self-sacrifice that it robs his death of muci of its Ssadness; and whilst the tears of his friends must flow because of their loss, | am sure there isin their hearts a deep gratitude to God that their beloved’s death was met in the noble effurt to save a fellow’s life.”

It is proposed in St. John that a public monument sha!l be raised to the hero ol the deed here described. Commenting

upon the proposal, the Evening Gazette

slips it

uen.

says :— ‘

** St. Jolin has had its heroes in times past whom it delighted to honor, but none of them have been quite the same calibre as the hero of Courtenay Biy. St. Juhn crowds have shouted themselves hoarse over the prowess of chawpion oarsmen and bviseball plavers, and it is cheering to find that there are other achievements hesid+s winning a boat race or taking part in a base ball match by which a man can win distinction in this city. Billy O'Rafferty, the pitcher of the

sugtown invincibles, may be a greater man than Governor Tilley in the eyes of the shout- ing multitude who admire his curves, but when a real hero like John Frederick Young appears on the scene his glory becomes dim. There is no min, however ignorant or however deficientf n that quality himself, who dues not adn ie co: rage, and Swhen to that c yurage is liuked, unselfish devution to duty, as was the case with the young here, whose deith we lame .t,it is p oper that our admir: t on for his biave deed suould be expressed in a permanent form,”

Notes and Comments.

—There is something grand in the idea of a nation uniting with one accord to give thanks to Almighty God for all the benefits conferred upon the people in the course of the year that has passed. The people of Canadas have, undoubtedly, a great deal to be thankful tor, and we have no doubt that thankful hearts will be found in every part of Carada—to-morrow.

—A correspondent of the St. John Sun has been travelling through New Bruns- wick during the year and finds marks of progress everywhere. He says: ‘St. Stephen and adjicent towns have also grown quite as fast, if not faster than, the t>»wns on the opposite side of the river in Maine. No better evidence of this need be asked of the success of the national policy, and the folly of the cry that we need unrestrictel reciprocity with the States to make us prosper as we shoud.” The Empire remarks that Canadians can al- ways findin the facts the comtort they vainly seek in the Grit organs.

—Advices reach us that the same gang of desperadoes who have been burning and plundering in all directions for years in the vicinity of E!msdale, Prince County, are still at their fiendish work. Three incen- diary fires have followed in quick succes- sion during the season in that section. Three unoffending citizens are almost put upon the road as aresult, while nobody within a radius of ten miles of the place feels safe. Insurance companies will not insure pro- perty there, which adds considerable to the | general onrest and satisfaction. Only a' fortnight ago and Mr, Michael G’Brien' went to his bed, happy in the possession of |

full barns and bursting garner, to awake |

“Dreams and Dreamers.”

Tur first of the series of lectures for the season 1890 1891, under the auspices of the Literary Society in connection with St. James’ Church was delivered last night by the Rev. David Sutherland, the esteemed and popular pastor of Zion Church, There was not a full house. The chair was oceupied by Mr. John Nicholson, the president of the society, who preparatory to latroducing the lecturer gave a short outline of the histury of the socte'y from its organizvtion ia the year ISS4. After the president had concladed bis opening remarks, which | sted about fifteen minctes, the Rev. Mr. Su'herland began his lecture on ‘-Dreams and Dreamers,” and for neaily an hour kept the attention of the audience The lecture was devoted almost entirely to ex- plaining the many arguments advanced by scientists and others as to the cause of dreams

and the times when they occur. He svid that two erroneous theories were held to account for dream phenomena, viz: the natural and the supernatural, The form» was the one universally neld in ancient times, but physiologists and psychologists io these days attribu'e? them al oyether to natural causes, the

former miuin‘aivixg that d-eams ared ‘pendent m the state of th: body, the latter that they ve due to a suspension of the will. The powers of the mind, freed from res*raint, like untamed steeds whose driver is lost, run riot, and memory and fancy especially revel ut pleasure ‘lhe proper explanation would, he thovght, be found tn adopting and harmon- cog the views of eac'. thst the mind and body both contribute to produce the strange result Instances were given to show that the time of dreaming is when falling into or awaking from profound sleep, and that the duration is marvellously short—events which t would take years to enact passing through the mind ia as many seconds, The le :turer, while not be'ieving in dreams as a forerunne: of events, give one extraordinary iustance ot a dream by a woman whom he knew, which certain!y turned out to bs a forecast of a sad eilamity. The audience could not but have en) ryed themselves; and, from the attention viven, it was evideat that they followed the lecturer throughout, At the close,Rev D. Me- Nei'l made a tew remarks and a motion for a vote of thanks. The motion was seconded by Mr. John A. Lawson, and carried unanimous ly. Th: next lec ure of the course will be delivered on the 18th November by the Rev. W. P. Archibald. st, Joha Bright.

Yesterday's Football Match.

su yer

DECLARED A DRAW AFTER A SPLENDID GAME ~GOOD ORPER AND A LARGE ATTEND- ANCR OF SPECTATORS.

Tare football match between the Abeg- woits and the team from the West Riding Regimeut attracted a large number of people to Victoria Park yerterday after- noon. The game throughout was close and exciting. The best of order was maintained during the play. Following is a list of the players :

ABEGWEITS,

Back—Sullivan.

Three-quarter Backs—Ings, Percy Mc- Donald, Robinson.

Half-Backe—A. B. McDonald, Dr. D. Johnson, J. Rundle

Forwards — Hubert McDonald, F. W L Moore, John McDonald, A. H. McNeill, J.J, MeDonald, C. McKinnon, John Roas, J. F. Whear.

WEST RIDING TEAM. Back—-Bruce. ‘Lhree-quarter’ Backs—Turner (captain), Fraser, Briggs. Half-Backs—-Sexton, Jilks. Forwards—Smith, Pelham, Knowles, Denhirst, Haesel, Rodgers, Cassidy, Cun- ningham, Lockyer.

The ball was kicked off by the West Riding team, aud was promptly returned by the Abegweits. The play was for the most of this half confined to the West Rid- ing part of the field, and the half closed with a scrimmage in the West Riding goal line. In this half Hubert McDonald seeured a touch-down, but the try for goal was disallowed on the ground of previous mis-play. Jiiks, of the West Riding team, was disabled in this half and had to leave the field. When time was called the Abegweits kicked cff, and there was some warm playing about the twenty-five yard line of the West Ridiug half of the field. Ings, the Abegweit Captain, was disabled early in this half and had to retire. The play was mostly confined to the West Rid- ing end of the field until a free kick was awarded to the West Riding team and they worked the ball down near the Abegweit goal. Time was called during a scrimmage near the Abegweit goal line. In this half Briggs cof the WestRiding team was temporarily disabled but resumed play towards the end of the game. The game thus resulted in a draw, no points having been gained by either team. Un the whole, the game was much in favor of the Albegweits. The play was very warm and fast as will be sufficiently evidenced by the number of disabled. The Abegweits consider the West Riding the strongest team they have yet met and one at whose hands a defeat weuld be no disgrace. As the team that played against the Abegweits had de- feated every team that appeared against them this season, including both the Dalhousie Coilege and Navy teams, the Abegweits did not expect a victory yesterday. oth teams left this morning by the steamer to Pictou. Mr. Higginson, of the West Riding Regimént, was the referee.

The Markets.

H.

A large quantity of produce was market: ed in the past week, notwithstanding the stormy weather and the bad roads conse- quent therefrom. Tuesday was a lively day in Charlottetown; and we hear that numbers of schooners are loading at the outports,—some of them bound for the States, notwithstanding the McKinley tariff. Potatoes are in increasing supply at from 18 to 20 cents per bushel; vats rule at 41 cents; pork at from 6 to 6} cents. Eggs are in very light supply at 15 to 16 cents.

The prespect is that there will be a stronger demand for potatoes. Oats in Montreal are quoted at from 40 to 44 cents per bushel as to kind and quality. There is no change to note in the provision market of the neighboring provinces. Hay is in good supply in Montreal at from $8 5) to $9 00 per ton.

As to mackerel, the siles in Boston from

tem Augestine Cove Notes.

The farmers of this locality have their preparations for another crup in an ad- vanced state.

The large quantities of wild geese which assemble at Cumberland Cove every fall, are attracting much attention this season.

Our enterprising young friend, Mr. E. Allen, has a crew of men at work preparing

his lobster canning establishment for another season’s work. Mr. Geo. O. Webster has in process of

erection a mill for the sawing of lumber. Mr. Webster should receive the patronage his enterprise so well deserves as there is no other mill of the kind within a radius of some five or six miles. ~ |

The present system of the mails for Au- gustine Cove, as well as for Cape Traverse, renders it very inconvenient for the resi- dents—mure so, in fact, than the system in operation prior to the one now in practice, as we still have tri-weekly mails—along with the delay occasioned by the present system, which was not experienced in the old Bedeque and Charlottetown route. The train which conveys the mail arrives at Cape Traverse at 7.35 p. m. Idcal time; the mail has then to be sorted by Mr. Strang, and thence forwarded to the different post- offices, which renders it generally 9 o'clock before it reaches Augustine Cove. Itis not intended to censure the officials in charge; on the contrary, we believe that Mr. Strang, and cur worthy mai!- driver, du their duty as far as lies in their power. But what we want is a daily mail, and we consider it oniy just and fair that we should be entitled to this privilege as well as the neighboring settlements around us, who, as we believe, can boast of this necessary .convenience.
