on theological know‘edge as a necessary qualification of our public teachers. They are, of course, aware that a certain amount of religion, of an undenominational char- | acter, is already introduced at the discre tion of the local authorities. But they de- sire something not merely permissive, but imperative; and probably they make a/| great point at national recognition, — Tors | onto Nation. ’

Much excitement was created at Ports. mouth, R. L., on the 12th inst., by a mur. | der and atterapted suicide. Robert Casey | shot his wife, killing her instantly, and then shot himself. Casey had been absent for | several months, during which time his wife Casey learning this fact returned a few days since

|and finding Mrs. Casey and her paramour

in bed together, he took them toa Justice of the Peace and had them married, ana then left them. Subsequently he returned | and committed the above deed. He still

survives. There are five children in this | unhappy family, two of which are said to

have been born during Casey’s absence.

NewrounpLtanp.—The correspondent of the St. John Zeleyraph writes :—* The seal fishery of this year has been moderately good. I estimate the total catch at 420,000 seals, value $],260,000. The returns are not complete, so that this is but an approxi-~ mation to the truth. Making the usual al- | lowance for old seals, the number landed at | St. John’s has been 342,250 ; and it is a fow | estimate if we allow 77,750 for the other | ports of the island. The steamers as a whole have done remarkably well; the | heavy ice and the prevalence of easterly | winds were greatly against the success of | sailing vessels. One steamer, the Proteus, | owned by Messrs. J.& W. Stewart, brought in on her first trip 42,000 seals, and on her | second, old seals equal to 7,400 young harps | —in all 49,000 seals. Altogether the firm | of J. & W. Stewart received 90,000 seals, worth $270,000. Messrs. W. Grieve & Co., | got between 50,000 and 60,000 seals. Mr. | Munn. of Harbor Grace, I regret to say, had | not his usual good fortune , but after so many successes he can well afford to meet one disappointment. His success in 1874 was something wonderful.

Church unions are the order of the day, | On Tuesday, at Montreal, the Moderator of | the Presbyterian Church, in connection | with the Church of Scotland, of the Canada Presbyterian Church, of the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, of the Canada Pres~ byterian Church, of the Lower Provinces of British North America, and of the Synod of the Maritime Province .in connection with | the Church ef Scotland, signed the terms of | union inthe name of their respective churches, and these Churches were declared united, amidst the eheers of several thou- sand clergymen, elders and spectators who were present. The union, however, is not | complete ; some congregations still stand | out against it. But this cireumstance is. not viewed with alarm by the Rey. Dr. | Cook, who presided over the newly united Churches, and who foreshadowed a far wider union among christian bodies than that just consummated. The nature of | this predicted church union is not clearly stated; but its comprehensiveness may be guessed from Dr. Cook’s remark,that ‘ there was no single christian organization from | the church of Rome downwards to the last form or gathering of the Plymouth Brethren from which some good lessons might be learned, or which it might not he advan- tageous to add to their union.’ Such catholic and tolerant sentiments the first utterances of the new Presbyterian Church. Hitherto, in too many instances, the union of religious sects has resulted in the creation of a dominant and intolery | ant body, that used its power for its own aggrandizement and a bigoted dissemina. tion of its own peculiar views.

| Duhamel,

the presumption of which the young gens tleman had been guilty, reached home in a very irate frame of mind, and summoning his daughter reproved her sharply.

‘iar > Iniie! a Cleora iaugnueda l

irst, pouted afterwards,

and ended by crying

Less than a week from that time, Miss Cleora received another lecture, couched in much briefer Janguage, but eloquent beyond anything that young lady had ever listened to before, judging from the ims pression it made,

‘You ought to ve proud of your work,

Miss,’ declared Mr. Duhamel angrily

'* Frank Reeves has got himself into real

trouble this time, and there is no doubt in my mind that he would never have done so crazy a thing if his head hadn’t been turned about you.’

‘What has poor Frank done now ?’ asks ed Cleora, increduously, but looking a little uneasy.

‘tle has been forging the name of Duhas mel & Co.’

Miss Cleora started, and turned red and white all in a breath.

‘Papa how do know?’

‘He don’t deny it; had the effrontery to present it at the bank himself even.’

Silence some moments. Miss Cleora grew paler and paler, and twisted her black curls with nervous white fingers.

‘Papa, what will you do with him!’ she asked presently.

‘1! Idonothing. The law he has out- raged will give hima term in prison pro- bably. Serve him right too.

‘Do you know where he is now?’ she asked tremblingly; but the merchant abs sorbed in his own reflections did not notice that. '

‘In Newgate, of course,’

* Ob papa!’

Cleora Duhamel rose to her feet white and palpitating.

Mr. Duhamel lifted his keen eyes to her face scrutinizingly.

‘It would be easy to imagine that you had some personal interest in this young scamp,’ he said coldly,

Cleora clasped her hands and looked up at him with trembling lips.

‘Well?’ exclaimed the merchant angrily, rising also.

‘Papa what made you let him go to New- gate ?’

‘Really? Why should [ not pray? Come, come Miss. It is a good thing for you, L see, he is disposed of,’

‘ Papa, Frank Reeves never forged anys body’s name in his life ’—and Cleora burst into tears for the second time that even: ing.

‘He don’t deny it himself,’ repeated Mr. with added indignation and amazement, at his haughty daughter's es- pousal of the young man’s Cause,

As Cleora made her escape from the room he began to pace up and down mut» tering, ‘She's self- willed enough to do any- thing. I’m glad he’s where he is, though I always liked the young fellow. It’s odd that he wouldn't defend himself. Neither denied nor owned it. Some mystery there, but it’s not my business to solve it,’

atone for. That is what [ came to tell you, and—G_.od-bye.’

Without so much as touching her hand, he was gone.

In another country, Frank Reevss re- deemed himself from the stain of that ins justice once done him, and became an honored member of society through his own patient endeavor,

Miss Duhamel never married:

LLP DO YOUR OWN FISHING,

A young man stood listlessly watching some anglers on a bridge, He was poor and dejected. At last, approaching a basket filled with wholesome looking fish he sighed : :

‘If now, I had these, I would be happy. I could sell them ata fair price,and buy me food and lodgings.’

‘I will give you just as many and just as good fish,’ said the owner who chanced to overhear his words, ‘if you will do me a trifling favor.’

‘And what is that?’ asked the other eagerly.

‘Only to tend this line till 1 come back. I wish to go on a short errand,’

The proposal was gladly accepted. ‘The old man was gone so long that the young man began to be impatient. Meanwhile the hungry fish snapped greedily at ‘the baited hook, and the man lost all his de» pression in the excitement of pulling them in; and when the owner had returned he had caught a large number.

Counting out from them as many as were in the basket, and presegging them to the | young man, the old fisherman said,

‘1 fulfil my promise from the fish you have canght, to teach you, whenever you see others earning what you need, to waste no time in fruitless wishing, but to cast the line for yourself.’

The shock lasted six minutes, and in that brief period of time 60,000 people perished. tired and left the harbor dry, and immedi- ately afterwards a great wave, fifty feet high rolled in upon the land, The mountains were rent and thrown in fragments to the valley below.
