Civic Deaptock.—There ia a deadlock in the City Coancil just now. A special wreting wax called for yesterday after- won wt three o'clock, bat only four membera put in apn sppearance, Viz - Conacillora Crabbe, Hogan, McKay and Boer, with the Mayor and Recorder. After waiting the hour prescribed by law, aud a yiorum not appearing, the meeting ad- jourm d sine die. A few days ago the same Uouneilins (i aylor, Robertson, Hooper and Hughes) absented themselves from the wijurned regular meeting. In consequence of their not attending these meetings the city is now without the usual standing committees, and all business transacted must be upon the personal responsibility

_

Mr. Hasiam’s Lecture

Tue concluding lecture.of the course under the auspices of the Benevolent Lrish Society was given in the Lyceum last even- ing by Mr. J. Heber Haslam Owing to am accident over which thé lecturer or the committee had no control the supply of gas for the lantern gave out early in the even- ing and the showing of the views was de- iayed for some time. The skilful services of Mr. Walter P. Doull were promptly call- ed into requisition, and through the kind- ness «f Mr. G. Herbert Haezard a supply of gas sufficient fur the projection upon the canvas of most of the viewa was vubtained shortly after nine o'clock, and the scenes shown were greatly appreciated by the large

audience present. While waiting for the second supplye of gaa Mr. Haslam made a_ short address, con-

‘rasting the Maritime Provinces with the New England States showing the relative position of the two and their respective re- sources, and pointing out the advantages the Western farmer posseases in the matter of the production of cereals. He also dealt brief- ly with the Northwest and its resources, referring en passant to the Northwestern States.

After Mr. Haslam sat down, the Rev. A. E. Burke, of Alberton, who was present io the audience, at the rqueat of the lec turer delivered an address dealing with the Canadian Northwest and its great fertility and natural resources. He was one of the party of maritime delegates who visited the Canadian Northweat last summer, and he fully corroborated a)] that had been said by Mr. Haslam in reference to that great country. He thought that for those [sland- ers whe felt that their native province did not sfford them sufticient uppertunities, the Canadian Northwest was the best place to emigrate to.

The President also made a shor! address. He explained the conditions under which Mr. tlasiam appeared as a lecturer under the auspices of the society, and pointed out that he was not there as the agent of the ©. P. R., to induce people to leave the Island, as some persons supposed.

The thanks of the public are due the Benevolent Irish Society for the excellent course of lectures provided. Their efforta te inculeate a healthy Jiterary sentiment eannot fail to be appreciated, and we trust that next season they will be again to the front with an equally good programme.

A a = Persenal,

The Monetary Times says: From an old and esteemed reader in Georgetown, P. E. I., the Hon. D. Gordon, comes this pleasant note ; **Plesse find $2 for continuation of my sal. scription to the Monetary Times for the ensv- ing year. The poet saye: ‘The love <i life increases with years,’ and | fiad the same may be said of a good newspsper.”

Mr. W. P. Doul! left by train this morning for Summerside to prepire the gases for Mr J. H. Haslem’s stereopticon lecture. Mr. Haslam usually gets his supplies from Mon treal, but ran short at the Lyceum las’ even- ing. We have no doubt that Mr. Doul! wil) straighten out the trouble for him as he did at last evening's lecture.
