Mr. Spurgeon on Veotal Abstinence.

Every friend of humanity will rejoice that Mr. Spurgeon may be counted on the side of the safest of all positions with refer- ence to intoxicants, total abstinence. Ata recent meeting of the Total Abstinence Society of the Metropolitan Tabernacle, he said there were two things that men needed —pardou of sin and to become holy.

for them. God forbid that they should put any plan of theirs in competition with the Cross of Christ. But total abstinence had really to do with the matter of their becom- ing holy, it was decidedly helpful to per- sonal holiness. To be free from alcohol left the brain clear, that helped to the study of Scripture, andthe study of Scripture helped men to grow in grace ; so that there really was some connection hetween total abstinence and holiness; and there was also some connection between taking alco- hol and unholiness. There was, further, a connection between total abstinence and holiness in the matter of self-conquest, the

keeping of one’s self wel) in hand, which was a matter of great importance. Mr.

Spurgeon went on to urge total abstinence for the sake of example, and for the sake of influence on families, and ia scathing lan- guagé denounced grocers’ licenses. Drunk- enness also stifled conscience ; and it was no use ministers and others trying to save the souls of men if they were first killed by strong drink.

The Trans-Centinental Railway. In the handbook of Canada, compiled for the Colonial and Indian exhibition, under the direction of Mr. John Carling, mention is made of the fact that the idea of a trans- continental railway through British North America was first mooted by Major Car- michael-Sinyth in an open letter addressed to Mr. Haliburton (‘‘Sam Slick ”), and published in 1847. The writer said :— This great national railway from the Atlan- tic to the Pacific is the great link reqaired to unite in one powerful chain the whole English race—enabling vessels steaming from our magnificent colonies and settle- ments in the East to land their rich productions at the commencement of the West, to be forwarded and dis- tributed throughout our North American colonies and delivered within thirty days at the ports of Great Britain.” A map of the route proposed accompanied the letter, and, singularly enough,the Canadian Pacific railway takes the very route then suggested. The letter was followed by a pamphlet, pub- lished in February, 1848, in which the writer's views were elaborated. A corres- pondent of the Times, in an issue just at hand, states that Major Carmichael-Sinvth is still alive at the age af 87, in good health and with his mental activity unim oaired.

A Railway Car Incident.

A correspondent of the Hartford Times relates a little incident that-is both aniuez- ing and suggestive: it is generally under- stood that if a pe wates a sest for a few moments and :eaves some articles in it, that this will secure it till his return. In more than one instance we have seen an overcoat or satchel removed from a seat

new comer. An amusing case of the kind recently occurred on a road not far from Hartford. A gentieman had occasion to leave his seat for a few moments at a sta- tion, and on returning found his overcvat and satchel removed and the seat takea possession of bya young man and ‘his best girl.” The gentleman said to the young inan: “‘i think I am entivod ty this seat, as [ left articles in it while 1 stepred to the platform for a moment.” Said the young man: **Possession is nine points of the Jaw, and J think we will keep the seat.

“Then,” said the gentleman, “will you please rise that f may get my umbrella?” The young man could not refuse this rea- sonable request--and as he gose from the seat the gentleman slipped into it, much tg the amusement of the other passengers. The young man requested “this best girl ; to go with him to another seat. In_ reply she said, “‘[ can’t vet out.” ‘Will you rise?” said the young man to the gentle- man, ‘‘and allow this lady to come out?” **T think not,” said the latter; “‘if ‘possess. ion is nine points ef the law,’ I propose te avail myself of the same, aud if your friend, wishes to vacate the seat she can step over,

causing more than a smile from those who witnessed the performance. <<< —- ™The Toronto correspondent of the Wits ness,commenting on the Liberal demon- stration in that city, on Tuesday evening, says: ‘““The most magnificent features of the proceedings were: first, Mr. Biake’s pointed appeal to the workingmen ; second, the entire ebsence of any reference to Riel.” W! bless the dear innocent jyouth, that is not to be marvelled at. The yood people of Toronto don’t take Riel in tlicir political egg-nog, and Mr. Blake and his lieutenants take mighty good care not to plant themselves on the Regina scaffold in Ontario. They know a trick worth twe of that. It is for Messrs. Laurier, Mercier and the allies in Quebee to rouse the peo- ple to avenge the death of their ‘dear brother,” while Mr. Blake and the Onta- rio contingent prate about the iniquities of the tariff, the beauties of free trade, and their consuming love for the workingmen. Still it has happened that the politican, as the circus, contortionist, sometimes spreads himself tuo freely, and in the endeavor te cover too iuch ground, comes to grief. —— TS ie ee —

It has been learned,througli the instrumentality of Andrew Myles, that we need not be dependent on the Old Country, for the best fruit syrup, and the coughing public abroad are cured by a St. John balsam. The article on the fruit tirade is instructive as showing a growing demand for the most wholesome of all Juxuries, and as furnishing one of many indications that Western Nova Scotia has close trade re- lations with St. John. eg Widow Stewart's Wealth

Cornelia Mitchell Stewart, whose death was announced some days ago, was the daughter of James Clinch, an old New York merchant. She was born on Oct. 20, 1813. Her brother was Charies P. Clinch, for many years deputy collector for the port of New York. When she married Alexander T. Stewart she was but twenty-two years old, and he was then only a promising young man, without fortune or backing. When he died, in April, 1876, he was at the head, in wealth and in the magnitude of his business, of the retail dry goods trade of the world. Mrs. Stewart was simple in her habits, lively and vivacious, and the

In 1876 the Prohibition vote was 9.757. In 1880 it was 11,64). In 1884 it was

151,070. In the contest of 1884 the loosen- ing of party ties, owing to the unsatisfac- tory record of the Republican candidate, did much to increase St. John’s vote. Many Republicans who could mot vole for Blaine and would not vote for Cleveland voted with the Prohkibitionists. Under norma! circumstances the straight Prehibi-
