Some fall victims of the over- reaching epirit of the age. When everyone is striving to obtain everything at less than value, it is as clear and certain as anything fail. Others, r extravagant, lazy or can be that someone muat again, are incapable careless, or drunken. These must socner or later mortgage their property or sell out or die off the better. It thus happens that mortgages are made—even in the s ner that the fact tha’ prosperous times, na there are mortgages is not necessarily proof that the whole country Is going to everlasting smash. Moreover, the statistics to be obtained at the Registry Office are un- reliable. A great many farmers who re- deew their mortgsges are content if they get possession of the origin il document, — some even are satisfied with a receipt for the money they have paid; and they ne glect to have satisfaction pleces drawn and registered. So that it is impossible to tell at the Registry Office what mortgages ar paid and what remain unpaid. All that we can say with certainty is that some mortgagees report favorably con- cerning the payment of interest and prin cipal, and that the situstion of Prince Ed- ward Island i 1 this regard, no worse than that of Ontario, Ohio, or any othe: agricultural communi'y in North America Oa the oth r wn ou Hanks I that machine ‘and other not ve b | pai up, and that payments, generally, been more punctually I me years.

Mr. Cockburn threw hot shot into the Opposition camp when he remarked that the Governor-General neither travelled on a pass nor sat up all night when on the road to escape paying sleeping car charges, and Hon. Mr. Haggart completed their discom- fiture by stating that Lord Stanley paid for his owa railway transportation. The rein- statement of Mr. Burgess as Deputy Min- ister of the Interior was attacked by Sir Richard Cartwright and Mr. Davies, . and defended by Hon. Mr. Daly. D. C. Fraser complained that sinee the speedy trials act came into force, the expenscs of the County | Court had considerably increased, * and asked for an increased allow- ance. The Premier said that no representati n had been made to him that the present allowance did not cover all ac- tual expenses.

If this building had burned there is no knowing where the con- flagration woald have ended, Another correspondent writes as follows : About 1 3) p. m., to-day, (Thursday) fire broke out in Messrs. Matthew McLean & Co's, can shops. The fire being noticed at once, 8 great many of. the “residents were soon on the sceve, snd with great difficulty saved part of the contents of the building. There being a stronz westerly breeze blow- ing at the-time, Messps.. Knight & Mor- row's warehouse, which is only about 15 feet from the burning building, caught, but by the prompt assistance of some of the crowd, was soon extinguished, without any damage being done. Mr. Clark's residence also received a-severe scorching, but was never allowed to catch. We trust the peop'e of Souris will now see the great need we have of some fire protection, for it was almost impossible to obtain even a ladder at the time the fire broke out,and we think prompt steps should be taken to see what can be done in the way of organizing a fire company, and securing some machinery ; if not, we shall find‘our fair town in ashes some time.

G, Stevens case, Leonard Nase swears that Mr. Stevens wrongfully enticed and procured his wife, Susan Nase, at different times during last year, to depart and remain absent from his house and society; that Stevens contrived wrongfully and wickedly, and unjustly en- deavored to injure the plaintiff ana de- prive him of his wife, and to alienate and destroy her effection for him, and by false and subtle means and devices attempted to debauch her; that on divers times and oc- casions Stevens illegaily and un- lawfully entered Nase’s house and premises and illegally and _in- decently assaulted her; that Stevens wrote to Mrs. Nase a number of letters wherein he endeavored to alienate, take away and deprive Nase of the love and affections of his wife, setting forth therein that Nase was ill-suited and unfit to give his wife that conjugal comfort and that pleasure, which by right and merit she deserved and was entitled to, but that the defendant was by nature her perfect affinity, and was de signed by nature to give «ford her said comfort and pleasure.

The Crisp-Currie case has been adjourned until the 14th, when it resumes in St. John, It was adjourned for the purpose of securing the evidence of Dr. Gardner and Rev. Mr. Dobson. Rev. F. Harrison was examined yester- day. He told of a conversation he had with Crisp in Mazch, 1885, when the latter said that he was in trouble, having received letters accusing him of being the father of an unmarried woman's unborn child.. The witness asked him what he was going to do. Crisp replied, ‘‘I am afraid r I will get into trouble. [ think I will leave the conference and go off to the States.” ‘*They accused me,” Crisp went , on to say, of being down on the Lake shore with E!iza Movre.’ The witness asked kim ve | if he was down with the woman alone on one of which | the Lake shore. Crisp replied, ‘‘Yes,” but that be did nothing wrong. A fortnight later the witness saw Crisp. Crisp had received a letter from Dr. Gardner and showed it to him. This letter stated the accusation was to be turned from Crisp and fixed on D. D. Currie. The Oar—A Challenge. Boston, Feb. 4. Captain Cook has received «a cablegram London stating that Bubear will row Han- lan for £200 a side and the Sporteman Cup. tively, be influential in the promoticn of the good cause of contentment, prosperity and peace at home—all involved in tem- perance. —It is pleasing to note that the reports upon which some criticisms of the character of the late Bishop Brooks were based were largely inaccurate. A friend of the late Bishop authorizes the statement that. ‘‘re- ports crediting him with great wealth are without foundation. The only use which Dr. Brooks cared to make of his money was to distribute it among those who needed it, and his daily life was marked by open- handed and tender charity. So far was he from_using his. talents to accumulate pro- perty that at=the time of his death he had not sufficient income -beyond his salary to support his simple.and unassuming manner of living ” Among-the provisions of his will are the following ;~All his printed books. to Trinity Church to form a rector’s and par- ish hbrary; $2,000 to Trinity Church to- ward the completion of the front of the edi- fice; $1,000 to the Home for Incurables; $500 each te the H. gan sisters, his domes- tics. His land and real estate in North Andover, his horses, carriages and harness and o'her personal property go to his brother, William Gray Brooks; $5,000 is given to Gertrude, daughter of William Gray Brooks; $1,000 to the Rev. James Potter Franks, of Essex, and the residue of the estate is to be divided between the 3.shop’s three brothers. * * Leiter From Mr. Earle. - in > S1r,—I notice indast evening's issue that a person has been appointed choir instructor of Zion Church. Bretity is what the printers like. In justice to'my friends in the above church, allow me té say that the change is not made on account of any neglect on my part or upon that of the chpir, but through the influ- ence of a certain intiividual who is a friend of the new man. ‘Phis individua), some time in the early part of mber, took himself to ask the choir minister if they would like achang>. Briefly, he was sat upon. The choir has been working very hard, and as for myself 1 have put forth my best efforts in their behalf. A tristee was asked yosterday why did you do it? ‘*Oh,” says he, ‘* he gives three anthems a day in the Methodist Church, and sometimes we get none.” He forgot to tell the gentleman that I was cnly instruct- or, and not organist and choir master. Had he been gent!eman enough to have gone to the organist of the church she would have told him, ‘‘ Do not blame Mr. Earle; he mare than does his duty. He prepares an anthem for us, but if the choir don’t come up to sing it I can’t have it.” This sometimes happens elike in all churehes, But other.people are Christ- ians enough to have ge upon the choir, who are only volunteers, Don't you think the choir should be consulted in the matter. IL learn they have not been. This is most cer- tainly very strange. SamvEt N. Ease, ~ oe Reform Needed.
