Act like a gentleman in the follewing matter You have an undoubted right to stop a newspaper when you feel disposed, upon payment of all arrearages. Do not hesitate to do so on account of ‘* tender nes» for the editor. Don't you suppose he would quit buying sugar of you, or t, clothing, dry goods, ete., if he thought he was not getting his mney’s worth, and why should you not exercise the same privilege with him’ And when you manfully.

No gentleman ever stopped it in that way, no matter if his bead is covered with gray hairs that should be honorable. If you do not longer wish to receive a newspaper write a note to the editor like a man, sayifig so—and be sure that srrearages are paid. This is the way to stop a newspaper—-like a gentleman.

The Exponent remarks that the world is made up of all kinds of people, with different tastes and But there is class that seems to be largely in the majority —the grumblers and growlers— those who are never satistied ; talk much and do little. With them nothing is done right, everything is going to ruin. They have lots of time for precept, but little for practice. They are jittle good to themselves or anybody else.

The following statements have been made by eminent men and are said to be well authenticated :—‘*The entire quantity of rum sent from Boston to Africa during the last six years has been 4,158,284 gallons ; an average of two thirds of a million gallons annually. A firm withia three miles of Boston is under contract to furnish three thousand gallons of liquor a day, fur the next seven years, for exporta- tion to Africa. Three thousand gallons a day of ‘ distilled damnation ’ to deepen the sing and sorrows of the dark continent ! Tell it not to Mahommedans and Buddhists that Christian people can enact or tolerate such atrocious deeds, or the name of Curistianity may be stamped with disgrace and consigned to infamy. The traffic is bad enough at home, but words fail to the vileness and enormity of this evil in its relation to advancing civilization. Another fact has great significance. The great Europe desired to unite some time ago li an arrangement to pro- hibit the export of dynamite, firearms and liquor into Africa. The only country that ubjected to the league, thereby putting an arcest on a bensticent movement, was the United States. May we not hope that the christianity of the republic will seek to remove that dark blot from its national escutcheon.”’

Missionary Anniversary.

Tue Young People’s Missionary Meeti: 3 in connection with the Second Methodist Church was held last evening (Sth inst.) and proved to be a decided success. ‘The service throughout was one of deep inter- est, and evidently had the effect of enlisting more fully the best connections and sym- pathies of the large congregation present, on behalf of the great enterprise of Chris- tian missions. The remarks of Mr. Jchn Henry, (Chairman,) Mr. Full and Mr. R. Goff were exceedingly appropriate, touch- ing as they did some of the finest aspects of the missionary movement as it exists to- day. The various members of the school acquitted themselves admirabiy, adding very iauch to the interest and success of the

Srx,—On going into the Reading Room of the Y. M. C. A., one cannot help being struck with the good order and excellent arrangements that have been introduced by Mr. R. M. Barrett, since he has taken charge, and the general opinion seems fo point to the fact that he is the right man in the right place.

His extreme quietness, sense of order and business-like method of arranging everything, have been a complete comfort to those who have been frequenting the Reading Room for the last three months, and the opinion is general that he is much better fitted for the position than a young- er man could possibly be.

In view of this fact, hope that he will be permanently appointed, with a due re- gard to the comfort of

Sir,—In St. Matthews Gospel, 7-12, we read: ** Therefore, all things whatsoever ye would, that men should do unto you, do ye even so to them.” { am living in the midst of a kind neigh- borhood and [ feel assured that if my friends knew all the annoyances to which [ am subjected in spring and summer by troops of dogs at night and early morning racing through my grounds and garden, destroying flowers and beds newly planted, they would surely chain or shut them up and prey ent their destruction. Tis true, { might have concealed traps or spring guns in my grounds and injure these animals, but as they are not to blame it wou'd be unjust and cruel to them, As the remedy rests with the owner, I appeal to them to prevent this injury, by keeping their canine pets chained or shut up at night and early morning. [t was only atdawn this very day that ten or twelve of these animals, as | was told, congregated within my tence, raced and gambolled through flower and other beds, and you can easily judge of the havoc they were causing until they were discover- ed and driven out Other persors having gardens in the city loudly complain of this nuisance, as well as one of

disorderly conduct,

After the regular business of the Court was over, his Honor, asa Justice of the Peace for the Island, enquired into the case of Joseph McKenna and Peter Conlan, two young men charged with being the princi- pals in a bare-knuckle fight that took place on the night of Monday, 29th April, in a field on the Malpeque Road, outside the city limits. Several witnesses were examin- ed. Their testimony was to the effect that the fight took place as alleged, that it was a sort of a go-as-you-please affair, with neither seconds nor backers, and that Ccn- lan was knocked out by a blow on the ribs. His Honor finéd the ** pugs” $10 each, and dismissed a young man charged with tak- ing a hand in the proceedings after the fight was started.

The Secretary stated that there are 400 names on the school roll, 345 volumes in the library, and that the amount raised for missions by the school for the present year is $156, showing a slight ad- vance on previous year. The holding of this important service on the evening of the Lord’s Day, instead of on the usual week evening, was a decided improvement and the committee of management deserve the thanks of all for the change in this par- ticular.—Cowm.
