THe New Glasgow Piaindealer, speaking of the steel works at that place, says: ‘The fur- naces Of this establishment are blown out for a week or two, while the directorate obtains information as to the class of steel which will be required to suit the Canadiap trade. As a large quantity of steel was imported in antici- pation of the duty, the fall trade in this article has been largely supplied and the directors are with commendable prudence anxious to avoid the aecumulation of a large stock of manufac- tured steele, part of which might be unsuited to the trade. More than half the usual num- ber of men are still employed in the works and new machinery is expected at an early day.

A Drooetsr’s Fara Mistake.—The Fre- dericton Capital of the 27th is authority for the following: The death of Edgar McClos- key, only son of Mr. Michael McClostey, in the employ of John McDonald, was a sad affair. The little fellow had been ill and Dr. Coulthard was called in tosee him. After ex- amining the boy, the doctor left a prescription which ordered four repository piils, morphia, of one quarter grain, with instructions how they should betaken. This prescription Was taken to Messrs. Davis, Staples & Co., and put up by one of the clerks. Yesterday after- noon, about one o'clock, one of the piils was given the bey who soon after went into a sort of stupor. Hetween four and five o'clock his mother became alaymed at his condition and sent again for the doctor, who, on looking at the patient, at once devined the cause and set about the usual remedies for relief, Despite the combined efforts of Drs. Coulthard and Coburn the little fellow died at half past seren last evening. The mistake was made by the druggist giving a half grain pill, al- lowed for adults, instead of the quarter grain ordered by the prescription.

Faxcnos tee Cricket. — The Boston Comedy Uo,, under the management of Mr. H. Price Webber, were last evening at Market Hall greeted with a bumper house, The beantifal drama, Fanchon the Cricket, which has been rendered famous by the celebrated actress, Maggie Mitchell, was produced. It was well “put on,” notwithstanding the diffi- culties which dramatic companies haye to contend with in Charlottetown. The stage
fixings were neat, and the scenery, though small, was beautifnl. The cast of characters was very good
indeed, and, the different parts well main- tained. Mies Edwina Grey, in the role of Fanchon, proved herself to be a charming little actress. Her part throughout was well sustained and she was at times loudly applauded. Mr. Percy W. Marsh, as Father Barbeaud, acguited himsejf admirably, while Messrs. H. P. Webber, and H. W, Farrish, as the twin brothers, took their respective parts well. Mrs. M. C. Hellman, in the character of Old Fadet the Witch, and Annie L. Patt, as Madelon Caillard, were quite suc cessful. The other characters in support were well prescnted and altogether the ctlect was
