*QXHIS SCHOOL offers, at very moderate
cost. the advantages of a comfortable and pleasant home together with a thorough and refined education.
The course of Instruction is the same as that of the best Schools in England and is founded upon the University Examinations for Women. Eight young ladies from this School passed the Local Examination of the University of King’s College in June last. This is the only School in Canada that has passed pupils at a University Examination.
The number of pupils is limited, rendering the School select, aol while it possesses all the educational ee of a large public school, each pupil is enabled to receive that individual care and oversight which is so important, and which cannot be given in a large establish- ment.
Mr. and Mrs. Padfield are assisted by a staff of four resident governesses, besides visit- ing masters. :
Parisienne French is taught conversation- ally. There are two resident French Cov- ernesses.
References given to parents of pupils.
For further particulars address the Prin cipal.

NEWS BY TELEGRAPY.
UNITED STATES. Derrior, Oct. 11.
An accident occurred on the Michigan Central R. R., east of Jackson, at one o'clock yesterday morning. The express train bound west, which left Detriot forty min- utes late, collided with a switch engine on the main track at that place, telescoping baggage and express cars and piling the remaining coaches, eleven in number, on the top of each other. The first coach was filled with emigrants, most of whom were killed or seriously injured. Many occu- pants of other coaches were also killed or wounded. It is supposed that 20 or 25 passengers are killed, and 20 to 30 wounded. The majority of the number are thought to be emigrants and second-class passen- gers.
New York, Oct. 10.
Putnam county is excited over the rav- ages of a plague of a new phase—contagi- ous pleuro-pneumonia. At a meeting of citizens of the county yesterday, John Borden offered to advance $10,000 towards crushing out the disease. It is supposed the disease was communicated by a drove of cattle coming from Buffalo via Albany. It is proposed to quarantine the whole county.

From the Canadian Illustrated News.
A special correspondent, in making a highly complimentary allusion to the views recently given in the Canadian Illustrated News of the arches erected in Charlottetown on the occasion of the late visit of the Marquis of Lorne and Princess to Prince Edward Island, sends some notes of an excursion taken by His Excellency during that visit to Seaside Hotel, Rustico Beach. This well-known summer resort, a sketch of which appeared in this journal in June last, lies 18 miles north from Char- lottetown, and is mueh frequented by fam- ilies and tourists from both Canada and the A sight of the register showed the names of, among others, Sir Alexander Galt, Hon. Judge Torrance, Rev. Professor Jones, Hon. Judge Burton, G. B. Burland, Esq,, Thos Swinyard, Esq. , Misses Stairs of Halifax, W. J. Buchannon, Esq., Mrs. Dow, Bishop Binney, of Nova Scotia; Rey. Chancellor Hill, LL D., Rev. Gavin Lang, Rev. J. D. Cayley, Right Hon. Mr. Childers, M. P., the late ex-Governor Wilmot, J. B. Cartwright, Esq., Henry Lyman, Esq., Hon W. Mackenzie Bowell, Minister of Customs, J. M. LeMoine, Esq., &c., &c. The hotel, which is capable of holding 80 to 100 guests is beautifully situ- ated, surrounded by groves of pine-wood" abounding with ferns and flowers of all kinds, and in front a substantial pier with a variety of boats and the sea rolling beyond. His Excellency having expressed a wish to see something of the interior of the Island, the Government, of which the Hon. W. W. Sullivan is Premier, selected Seaside Hotel as, on the whole, the most suitable place to which to take the Vice- Regal partv. The time for preparation was very limited, but Mr. John Newson, the worthy and enterprising proprietor, was equal te the emergency. Within a few days the grounds were converted into a fairy- land by the rearing of arches at the differ- ent entrances, the display of evergreens and bunting, the construction ef additional walks, and not least by the erection of a handsome pavilion in which, besides tables, seats for sixty guests were provided, Mottees of welcome and containing loyal sentiment greeted the eye everywhere, one bearing ‘God bless our Princess” being espe- cially conspicuous over the entrance to the hotel It eught to be mentioned that the
NO, 123
skilled laborers and the material necessary to effect these improvements had to be brought all the way from Charlottetown. The decorations for the pavilion were sup- plied by those staying at the hotel, among whem there were three American ladies from Nyack, N. Y., viz., Mrs. Mor- ford and Miss Morford and Mrs. Van Houton, who could not have been more earnest or interested though they had been doing honor to the President of the United States himself. Running through the centre of the roof from end to end were festoons of maple leaves and ferns; at right angles to them were four festoons of immortelles and pigeon berries; and running diagonal- ly, from each point where the others met, were festoons of ground juniper with ber- ries. Inside the, hotel the drawing-rooms and other apartments for the illustrious visitors were specially renovated and fitted up ; the ‘‘Governor’s Room,” generally re- served for occupation by His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor of the Island, who has been in the habit of paying an annual visit to the ‘Seaside,’ being almost entire- ly re-furnished for her Royal Highness’ use.
At length the eventful 16th August came and, with it, much pleasurable excitement at the Seaside Hotel. ‘Taking special train at Charlottetown, the Marquis of Lorne, attended by Major DeWinton and suite, reached Hunter River station, a distance of upwards of twenty miles, in about 45 minutes. The drive from that point te the ‘‘Seaside,”’ about eight miles, was through a lovely conptey, and splendid arches at Hunter River, New Glasgow and Rustico Village. Great disappointment was felt all along the road at the absence of the Prin- cess, Who was prevented from accompany- ing the Governor-General by indisposition. Shortly after, the Marquis and a number of invited guests sat down to luncheon in the pavilion, which had been so situated that it commanded a beautiful view of the harber, dotted with the white sails of the fishing boats. The repast was under the superintendence of Mr. Wagstaff, of the old Rankin House, Charlottetown—one of the best hotels in that city—who, during the season, takes charge of the table in the Seaside Hotel. It was in his best style and thoroughly enjoyed by all who partook. Luncheon being over, the Marquis, in com- pany with Lieut.-Governor Haviland, Ad- miral Sir E. Inglefield, Hon. J. C. Pope, R. R. Fitzgerald, Esq., and several others, savas rowed over to the Island, opposite the hotel, where they visited Mr. H. M. Churchill's fishing establishment. The Marquis was much interested in an an ac- count give by Mr. Churchill of the methods of catching and curing fish. From the Island the Marquis also viewed a Regatta which took place in the bay. Upon return- ing, His Excellency signed the hotel regis- ter, and, on Mr. Newson being presented, was pleased to say, ‘‘This is a beautiful place, and I am not at all surprised at ite popularity—-everything is so tasteful and clean.” Altogether, the Governor Gen- eral’s affability, and his repeated assurances that he had spent a very enjoyable day, left a most pleasing impression upon the minds of all present. As His Excellency drove off, the hearty cheers given for him and Her Reyal Highness must have convinced him that, not only Her Majesty whem he represents, but also he himself had a firm hold upon the hearts of the people of Prince Edward Island. Mr. Newson may well be congratulated on the perfect success of all his efforts to make the Vice-Regal visit of the happiest possible kind, and, as His Ex- cellency re-passed through the‘arch at ew Glasgow,he must have realized the sincerity, as well as the appropriateness of the wish and hepe which met his eye in the return motto there inscribed, ‘‘\Vill ye no come back again ?”

Sir Walter Raleigh’s Advice.
In Cayley’s life of Sir Walter Raleigh, we have the following weighty advice which that distinguished man gave to his son :—
‘Take special care that thou delight not in wine, for there was never any man that came to honor or preferment that loved it ; for it transformeth a man into a beast, de- cayeth health, poisoneth the breath, de- stroyeth natural heat, brings men’s stomach to an artifical heat, deformeth the face, rot- teneth the teeth, and, to conclude, maketh a man contemptible, soon old, and despised by all wise and worthy men, hated in his servants, in himself and companions ; for it is a bewitching and -infectious vice. And remember my werds, that it were better for a man to be subject to any vice than to it; for all other vanities and sins are re- covered, but a drunkard will never shake off the delights of beastliness; for the longer it possesseth a man, the more he will delight in it, and the older he groweth, the more he shall be subject to it ; for it dulleth the spirits and destroyeth the body, as ivy doth the old tres, or as the worm engendereth in the kernel of the nut.”
