Referring to the opening of the new Presbyterian Church at Murray Harbor, he says:—

‘Very pleasant it was both before and after service to see the crowd, lingering about the church, and to hear them talking in thankful, hopeful, and eager tones of their past, their present, and their future. Among them the minister stood con- spicnous by his lofty stature fair com-

-——Dr. Swabey, LL.D., died on Friday evening, the 2nd inst., at his residence at Langley Marish, Slough, England, after a, somewhat protracted illness. The London Morning Post of the 5th inst., Dr. Swabey was one of the last of the old survivlag members of the college of advocates at Doetors’ Commons, which previously to the insti- tution of the Probate and Divorce Court

The scene of his ministrations is very extensive; but wherever an opportun- ity of usefulness. presents itself, he dis- regards fatigue and when itis needful, is willing to undertake long and _ toilsome journeys. Many in Pictou to whom his tamily name is dear, will delight to think of the new church at Murray Harbor as a beautiful lamp that has been newly set up, and one that will be always and brightly lighted, with the hight of tzuth and the gloryof the cross, It was not erected one day too soon..

Dingwell, the Chairman, referring particularly to the fact that he had served his Province for twenty-one years in the Local Parliament. It was a pleagure indeed to have Mr, Dingwell in the Chair, especially when we remember that he ranks among our oldest Provincial legislators, and now when almost an octogenarian, is sti!] a type of the fine old country gentleman, comparatively hale and hearty, with intel- Ject unclouded. The new building is called Eglinton Schoolhouse, and the opening ceremonies just related were highly inter- | esting throughout.

A Mutinous Crew.

John O'Brien, Jobin Rober:s of England, Thomas Cavanaughy Arthur Aaron, Peter Welsh, Thomas Hennessy, David Barker, Edward Doherty of Noya Scotia, and James Daley of P. E. Island, were arraigned be- tore the St. John police magistrate on Wed- nesday, for refusing to do duty on board the ship “Flora P.. Stafford.” Captain Smith, commander of the vessel, deposed

Spencer s Isiand on Tuesday, 15th, and up to and from that day the seamen re- fused to do any duty, and their food was stopped for 50 hours and after that they fared on what weuld actually prevent starvation—bread and water. A tempor: ary crew, each of whom it is said was

Mr. Underhay, Rev. |Mr, Colter, Dr. Muttart, and others all | gave excellent addresses. Dr. Ford spoke right up, short and to the point, and con- tributed to the ‘‘sinews of war,” most |handsomely.

IR,—An untruthful advertisement, signed KO “RK. McCoubrey,” figures in your issue of ast nicht. Please permit me to state, at the outset, I respectfully decline all compli- ments from the man (7) McCoubrey. I notice that he did not tell you, Sir, that I kept him in coal and paid his house rent, for which favors he has since saucily refused to remun- erate me. To the trnthfalness cf these state-, nents Mr. Faught, the agent, can testify. No svonir ie the word ‘fraud’ mentioned than he feele ‘‘’tis aimed athim.’ Verily, ‘‘the wicked flee when no man pureueth.” Some time ago this ‘‘notable’ R. MeCoubrey em ployed a young weman to work for him, ard to this day she remains unpoid, This is the c-eature who, after sponging on the worn-out generosity of his neighbors, has the bare-faced impudecece to prate about ‘‘guiling.”
