Obituary.

(Provincial Wesleyan. )

Died ‘of consumption at Charlottetown, July 18, 1888, Mary Eliza, aged 24 years, praone daughter of James and Diana Rich- ards.

From a child, Mary Eliza was marked by a quiet and thoughtful disposition, and a peared naturally to have a preference ! for what was commendable and good. For years she was always ready tu assist in the various enterprises of the church, especial- ly in colleeting tor missions and other kin- dred objects. She was led to unite with the Secon Methodist Church about two \ eats 8g0o, and always maintained a con- sistent character, both as member of the Charch and of the Sabbath-school to which she was deeply attached. Something over a year ago her health began to fail. Shegrew weaker until the symptoms of consump- tion were only too evident to all. Every- thing that human sympathy and skill could do to nourish and rebuild the waning lite was done; but it was God’s will that in early life she should pass through the shaduwy portals and possess for ever the unbroken rest and calm of an erernal heaven. Patiently she yielded up her young life, and that at a time when earth- ly surroundings. and prospects had many f attractions for her, and Gt that quiet beau- tiful summer's morning exchanged her home on earth for the surrowless and tear- less dwelling of God. Her end was peace- ful, and with an unshaken truth in her Saviour, and conscious of her’ approach ng end, she bid farewell to her loved ones and friends, and assured them that she was going to be with Jesus which was far better. As the writer was endeavoring to cheer and comfort the departing one, she requested us to sing, ‘* What a Friend we have in Jesus,” &c., and with an unusual energy for her, she joined ir the beautiful hymn 0? praise. A tew hears after, the conflict was over, and the weary one entered upon that rest which nothing can disturb. The following lines fitly express the feelings of the bereaved family in this hour of tearful parting,

**T)-ar sister thou has left us, Here thy loss we deeply fee! ; Bat ’tis God who hath bereft us, He can all our sorrows heal.’

Sable Island,

Sable Island, off which the recent dis astrous collision between the steamships Geiser and Thingvalla took place last week. is known as the graveyard of the ocean and is one Of the most forlorn and most isolated places in the Atlantic ocean. It is isolated on account of the miles of dangerous ledges which surround it, making it inaccessible for vessels of ordinary size. Wheu ap- proached, it is found to be but little more than a sand hill. The name is of French derivation, the word signifying sand. It is 90 mues southeast of Cape Cansc, at the extreme northeassern portion of Nova Scotia, and it comes under the government of that province. Its requirement in this direction is very slight, for it is inbabited only by the government employes, who maintain the lighthouses and life saving station, These come under the charge of the Federal Government of Canada, The island is 25 miles long, from east to west, and from One and one-quarter to five miies wide. It is covered with sand hills, some of which rise to the height of 80 feet. These hills enclose a lake 11 miles long, aud having a maximum depth of 12 feet. The only vegetation on the desolate place is wild beach pea vines, and a very coarse kind of grass, upon which herds of ponies uanage to subsist. The island is complete- ly surcounded by extensive and dangerous

went to maintain wiighthouse a 0: the island.

Barren and uninviting as the place is, it ws colonized in 1598 by 40 French con- victs, who were landed there by Marquis de la Roche; but five years later, wien the island was for the first time revisited, only 12 of the colonists had survived. The cvlony was then broken up, and no other attempt of the kind has since been made. The government employes have a lonesome life. The government supply boat visits them but annually, and it is only on rare occasions that any one ever goes off to the place from the mainland. Owing tu the shuals there is nearly always a rough sea, which would quickly swamp a small boat. A large beat cannot get nearer than two or three miles of the island, and there it has to wait for a calm which will permit of its sinall boats running in over the shoals in safety. The latitude of the eastern point of the ishind is 43 deg, 59 min. N., longi- tude 59 deg. 47 min. W. It is often con- founded by those who are not familiar with the geography of Nova Scotia with Cape Sable Island, which is the extreme south- eastern point of the province, Sable Isiand being northeast of Halifax, and Cape Sable Island southwest of it.

Cape Sable Island is connected by a ferry

Not with- standing this fact, the picnicers assembled in fall force, and the event proved worthy | of the occasion ; and afterwards when the} rain began to fall all enjoyed themselves within the Station House in pleasant games and dancing.

Railway Arcidents.

The British Board of Trade annual re- port on railway accidents, which occurred inthe United Kinglom duriug the year 1887 has been issued. The total number of killed was 919, and the number injured | 3,590. Ofthese, 121 persons killed and | 1,297 injured were passengers, and only 25 were killed and 538 injured in consequence } of accidents to or collisions bet ween trains. The deaths and injuries of the remainder of passengers were caused in various ways, especially to the want of caution. Of the remainder of the tetal number, 422 killed and 2,075 injured were officers or servants of the railway companies or contractors, The number of passengers killed froin causes beyond their control was eight in 1836, and fifteen in 1887, the increase being owing to the Hexthorpe disaster. The number of those injured decreased from 615 in 1885 to 538 in 1887.

am a <i ee Protection in the States.

Illustrative of the benefits which have accrued to the United States as the result of the adoption of a protective policy, an American paper points out that last year the Western States manufactured nearly as much as the whole country did in 1860, The Southern States now make ten per cent. more pig iron than was male in the United States the year before the out break of the civil war. When Fort Sumter was fired upon the entire exports of the United States from the formation of the Govern- ment had been $9,000,000,000. Sinve then they have amounted to $14,000,000,000. When Abraham Lincoln ws inaugurated the first time the manufactures in the United States amounted to $1,800,000,000. Now they amount to $7,000,000,000. Twenty-one years ago no steel rails were manufactured in the country. Two years ago 1,764,000 tons were produced. The result of manufacturing steel rails at home instead of depending upon England for them, is that they are much cheaper than they were when they had to be imported from that country.

600 fishermen, descendants of the Loyalists, refugces from the United States. It is not the desperate place that Cape Sable is, for the latter has won the distinction of caus- ing more shipwrecks and loss of life than any single place on the eastern side of the Atlantic. It does not afford a hospitable port for a sinking steamer.

Afraid of Us.

Says the Quebec Chronicle: There was a time when the people of Canada regarded the United States as their natural enemy. To-day, however, matters are reversed, and the people, speaking through their re- presentatives at Washington, are beginning to be afraid of the Canadians. But bless their innocent hearts, we will never do themuny harm. The martial spirit is very strong in us, and we are not disposed to stand any vonsense in the way of bluster, but we love peace better than war, and we hasten to say so to Senator Cullom. The Senator, the Boston Post assures its readers, is ** nut an alarmist,” yet he feels that *‘ the time is coming when Canada’s presence on our northern border will be a standing menace to our peace and pros- perity.” This is very true, tut what can either the Senator from Illinois or Sir John Macdonald do about it? We are here, and unfortunately we are close to the northern border of the United States, the very place where Senator Cullom would have us not. It wasall very well, three or four hundred years ago, to have us where we were, when the affairs of this country were regulaced by a few gentlemen born and brought up in the country, and of non-pacitic habits. But things are vastly different now, and Senator Cullom is disposed to look into the matter with keen and searching eyes. He sniffs, like the war horse known tw fame, the battle afar, and thinks, like the astute statesman that he is, that ** we,”—the United States, —** have reason to fear Canada’s growing greatnes , both from a numerical as well as s nateria! standpvint.” Itis a pity that we should grow in the shocking and scandalous manner indicated, and the Con- servatives have much tu answer for. Had they but remained. content with Mr. Mac- kenzie’s system of progress, and followed the financial and fiscal policy of Sir Richard Cartwright, all this growth, numerical and material, might have been checked, and Senator Cullom would have been spared many sleepless nights.

Unrestricted Reciprocity.

Nearly every American newspaper we take up that has anything to say on the subject of Unrestricted Reciprocity, regards it as preliminary to a movement in favor of annexation. One of the latest utterances on the subject is in the Boston Transcript. It says: ‘‘Itis pretty evident that ques- tions appertaining to the fisheries and the transcontinental trade of the United States cannot long remain unsettled without pro- ducing a state of hostility. When they aredetinitely adjusted it must be on grounds tliat would so far as trade and commerce are affected, bring Canada within the American Union.”
