At any rate tiiere is a mis- take somewhere. The recent order in Council extends the season ten days beyond the perio’ fixed by the order in Council of March, 1579; and referring to that order, we find that, by it, the season is closed on the 20th Angust. Last year an order was passed by which the season was extended to the 1st September, and our Souris’ cor- respondent, doubtless, thought that the recent order extended it days. ‘his, also may have been the inten- tion of the Government; but, if so, the Secretary at Gitawa has made a mistake. We shall probably have an _ authoritative statement tomake to-morrow. Meanwhile, we may remark that while it is of great im portance that this valuable fishery should be preserved, there seems to be a con- sensus of opinion, on the part of those in this Province, who are acquainted with the lobster, that the present close season is not just suited to the Island coast. If this be so, it would be well, we think, to give the packers,(who have large sums at stake) ten additional the benetit ct the doubt this vear, and have the subject carefully enquired into before next year. Tue AustraLian Lecrurer —The following public inv tation was tendered to the Rev. Dr. Leeming, by the Mayor and principal residents of Virginia City, Jan. 29 :—Rever- end and Dear Sir,—The undersigned and} ,jq , others, residents of this city and suburbs, respectfully extend to you an invitation to deliver another lecture. We who have listened to your discourse on “ Dan- iel O'’Connell,’. have enjoyed its literary excellence and wondered at the magial power you possess over your audience, at one moment convulsing the house with laugh- ter and a)plause by ycur inexhaustible re- sources ©! wit and.anecdete, and the next moment by your inapproachable pathos in painting scenes of sadnes, bringing tears of fc eling to every sympathetic eye, ase | most auxivus to have another opportunity of listening to your matchless clequence. Ltev- ecend sir, we leave to you the selection of a subject anor a time to best suit your con. venience, and hope you will faver us with an affirmative reply. With esteem and respect, We are, very truly yours. ed | | | cr.

In aves it is recognized that the strongest impressions are made in youth. Is 1t good thing to be Christians or not! If we believe the Bible, then, of course, we be- lieve in walking in the path to which it directs us; and if we are taught. to “ remember the Creator in the days of our youth it will be well with wn. To teach the youth is the cbject of the Y. M. C. A. Life is short, and there- fore we ou to live as Christians, and sensible people, from early youth upward, We have come here to welcome those who sympathize with us, and are come to help us. You will hear speeches of Welcome from representatives of all denominations.

We ask the young men toe come in; we hope that if they come they will be better citizens. He intimated that meetings would be open to all citizens. Rev. J. M. McLeop,in behalf of the pastors and Ministers of the Island, ten- dered to the deleg ites a most cordial and aearty @ welcome you as brethren in Christ Jesus, as workers in his vineyard, as soldiers in his army. In Conventions we see the essential unity of the Church. ‘Who could help being struck with this when we all to-night breathed out together the the words, ‘‘ Vur} Father who art in Heaven.” We need the help of you Christian workers. We want more troops. The enemy is powerful and numerous. And we hope that your pres- ence may be the occasion of a reyival in our midst. welcome. \\ e+ 1 these Rev. Mr. Donatp, (of Picton) re- sponded with a” glad and grateful heart. There is a comforting feeling in the idea that our Saviour and King pre- sides over us to-night, and, in the words of the hymns just sung, is also welcoming us. The meeting is a magnificent one, held under the most favorable auspices ; and he was encouraged to hope that the period of apathy was about to pass away. How many young men have been kept in the right way by the Y. M. C. A., and there is good reason for the belief that an increasing number will be kept out of sin and danger in the future. Mr. T. C. James, felt that it was hardly necessary for him to say much. To clasp hands with the delegates was to him a pecu- liar pleasure, and on behalf of the Y.M-C. A of Charlottetown, he cordially welcomed them. ‘To-night cur two flags meet. The great Republic in which the Y. M. C. A is doing a great werk is representod here, and to her representatives we also extend a warm welcome. Rev. Mr.. Weitpensatt, did not feel like a foreigner in a Christain Assembly. The two flags are under the Y. M. C. A. blended—the two countries are united. The Y. M. C. A is nearer to the Church than any other institution because the members are. necessarily members of the various Churches. The Y. M.C. A. is in reality a part of the Church, and @upplements its work. He advised better organization, and more methodical work. He hoped all would come to the Convention. : The President read a telegram contain- ing greeting from the Y. M. GC. Association in Toronto. Jupse Henstny stated that a letter had been received from the Rev. Mr. Macdon- of the Baptist Church, expressing his regret at his.inability to attend on account of ill health.
