A cut of the P. E. Island
Hospital appears on another
page of this issue. We trust that
a view of the structure as it will 'be
when completed may operate as a
stimulus to the generosity of our
readers, and incite them to renewed
e&`orts in behalf of this noble institu-
tion. The Hospital as it has been, has
done excellent work and stand.-2 high
in popular favor. In its new quarters
when they are completed it will have
greatly increased caprcity and facili-
ties for carrying on the humane and
philanthropic work to which it is
devoted.
It is now reported that the Aus-
tralian premiers have reached an
agreement in regard to the unsettled
questions connected with the feder-
ation bill. The trouble will be, how-
ever, to induce the legislatures and
electorates of the several provinces to
come to a like agreement. N o doubt
the federation will be accomplished
in time, for the leaven is working
surely if slowly. Federation of the
Australian colonies in one Common-
wealth will greatly increase the im-
portance and weight of ilie antipod-
can nation in the eyes of the world.
That was the result ofa like move-
ment in British America thirty years
lago, and is almost sure to be repeated
in Australia.
