The Treasurer reported the receipt of the following sums: From the Fort Augus- tus Branch of the Land League $23.75 ; from the Mill Cove Branch, $16.41; and from John A. MacDvunnell, Esq., the sum of $5.00. The above acknowledgments were received with much applause. The Treasurer sabmitted his report for the past six months. The Auditing Com- wittee stated they had examined the books of the several officers, and found them correct. Their report was, on motion, adopted. The following resolution was moved and s-conded by Messra. James J. Hughes and P, C. Kelly, and carried unanimously :— Whereas, The crime of assassination is, in itself, always attrocious and abborrent in the sight of christianity ; and whereas that crime so lately committed in Dublin is, under the surrounding and existing circumstancos, the more to be deplored, inasmuch as the con- sequencer are calculated to entail additional miscry on the long-suffering people of un- |hoppy Ireland, and at a period when the hearts of her fricnds were being elated with hopes of an early termination of her political difficulties ; Resolved, That the Charlettetown Branch expresses its strongest detestation of the murder of Lord Cavendish and of Mr. Burke, | that the perpetrators of the findish act will be Resolved Further, That while we abhor the deed, we feel justified in expressing the belief that the Irish Land League will prove itself guiltless of cemplicity therewith, ard that the a people whose patience, urder gross per- secvution, had already been so long-tried and praiseworthy. following resolution, which was unanimous- ly agreed to:— Whereas, The series of Resolutions have been lately passed in the Deminion Legislature ~-inpreagieg on the Imperial Government the desirability of settling the Irish Land Question amicably by the creation of a peasant pro- prietary, and other measures tending to per- manency of tenure and general improvement in the administration of local affairs in Ire- land : Resulocd, That--as one of the organizations of meaes conducive to the amelioration of the condition of the Irish people—we hereby tender to John Costigan, Esq., M. P., our most grateful thanks for the earnest and effec- tive manner in which he introduced raid Resolutions, and that our further thanks are tions.

Sir,—- The Poll Books for the Third District shows very plainly how much harm the blackguardisi of Henry Lawson or the falsehoods of the Lairds can do me where 1 am known The frothy, sledge- hammer speeches of Mr. Alexander Laird, abounding in foul abuse of absent men, and backed by the most fulsome laudatiens of his henchman Henry Lawson, has failed to convince the electors of Bedeque that Laird is a fit man to represent them in the House of Assembly. I might have allowed Laird’s \charges against me to rest here. The ipeople of the District in which I reside ‘have shown by their votes that they do not ibelieve him, and the people of Bedeque declare most unequivocelly that he is not ‘to be trusted. | Bat knowing that I have nothing to lose by discussion, I have demanded that Mr. A. Laird should make his charge against me in a specific form. For making this deismand Henry Lawson treats me with e volley of his choiest abuse. 1 am not going to be deterred from my course by Henry Lawson’s blackguardisin, nor to allow Alexander Laird to retreat under the cover of a family affliction. That affliction dates behind Saturday last, and it did not prevent him from attending meetings and making his charges against me in the most aggra- |vated manner, and in my absence. I now ‘demand once more that he shall state who is the disappointed Conservative to whom I made the ‘‘ reduction of thirteen dollars,” and who is the opponent that I made to pay ‘‘ more than the uttermost cent.”’ I have in my hands a copy of the return asked for by Mr. Laird, and I defy him to prove his assertion from it, or in any other way. If Alexander Laird has not the papers under his hand, they will be prompt- ly furnished him on application to the Land Office. My statement that it was shortly after ‘the dissolution of the House that my atten- jtion was called to Mr, Laird’s ‘charge is strictly true. My assist- Streng, was the first to in- ant, Mr. ferm me of what Mr. Laird had said, and that was after the dissolution. I did not see any report of Mr. Laird’s speech until I met it in_the Petriot extra, containing Mr. F. W. Hyndman’s letter. That letter was a reply to the speech of the Leader of the Government, made in the Market Hall, on the 26th of April. Although Henry Lawson fills his paper with abuse of me, where I have been denied an opportanity of defence, he did not show himself at any meeting in the Third District. It is net hard to guess the reason, I am, yours, ete., D. Frrcuson. May 15, 1882. | A Revolution in Book-Keeping. The whole system of posting and bal- ancing books in a ‘* nut-shell.” T. A. Lyle, an expert accountant, bas invented a curious and useful chart, entitled ‘‘ The Book. Keepers’ Companion,” which simpli- fies and shows at a glonce the whole system of keeping any set of books, and tells in an instant where each account belongs. No merchant, store-keeper, book keeper or ‘student should be without this remarkable work.’ It prevents mistakes, it saves time, and will prove a perfect boon to all those who are adepts in the art of book-keeping.

B. | The strike occurred some time ago, at ove of the mines of the General Mining Associ- | ation, a wealthy English company. It was ,not in relation to wages, but arose out of | difficulties between the manager and min- ‘ers.

They also demanded that several Jersey cattle began yesterday at the non-union men be dismissed, but this de- American Institute Building. The cattle mand was subsequently withdrawn.
