FINANCIAL.

The amount of stipend promised by congregations during the past year was $22,158, and the amount paid was $20,754 ; the difference is accounted for by the fact that we have seven vacant congregations. manses $10,853, and for all other congregational purposes $5,593, making a total expenditure of $37,200 spent for strictly congregational purposes. Your committee are happy to state that the schemes of the church are growing year by year. this year show a total of $6,687 for schemes, and $2,446 for purposes ; of this amount the larger part was given to those schemes which the church is prosecuting with much zeal and success, viz: College, $418; Home Missions, $1,454; Augmentation, $974 ; French Evangelization, $858 ; Foreign Missions, $2,695. only when we contrast the present with the past, that we can see the advances mace Ten years ago, the total annual giving was only This year the total is $46,468, or over $17,0U00 of an annual increase.

“An Oddfellow Abroad.

Anticonisu, N. $., June 24, 1890.

A few notes may not be out of order. The sensation at New Glasgow yesterday was the mysterious death of their most proniinent physician, Dr. Fraser. There are many s‘ories afloat, but the general impression seems to be that he died from natural causes, Being of a very sensitive nature he felt deeply the worriment of the recent Pictou poisoning investigation in whica he appeared as a witness.

New Glasgow is at present booming, about one hundred buildings being, or will be, under construction the pre- sent summer. The Foord coal mune, which has been idle since the dmaster of about seven years ago, is being agoin operated,

\utigonish, which lies midway between New Glasgow and Mulgrave, is a very protty town of about two thous vad inhab- tants. The cathedral, convent, and St, Xavier College, situate near each other, ar: yery fine structures, Seme of t10 stcres are quite modern, rnd the general apoearance of the place gives one the ides of pluck and enterprise. A drive around the place is viry enjoyable, the scenery

being rich and varied,
