AT THE OPERA HOUSE LAST NIGHT | Tue production of the sensational drama “ Retribution,” by the Malifax Dramatic Co. at the Opera House last night, proved to be one of the most enjovable perform- ances ever given in the Opera House. For & company of amateurs, the players of last | night possess exceptional ability, and the various requirements of a somewhat ex acting play received careful rendering at their hands, The Company comprises juite a large number of performers, none of whom can be said to be inferior mem- bers of the cast. The stage setting in some of the scenes was quite elaborate, and the only regret- able feature during the performance of the } play was the rather clumsy handling of the scenery during the first act. For those who acted in the leading roles praise is thoroughly deserved. Mr. Gas- tonguay as Harry Burgess was distinctly | pleasing; and Miss Gastonguay as Cecile Austin acted her part witn delightful spirit. Miss M. Lowrey as the maiden auot provoked much hearty laughter, and took the character off to the life. Miss M. Dwyer, as Miss Marrable, with the most difficult character in the who'e play, made | a success Of her impe:sonaiior, and her! splendid acting called forth much deserved | applause. Miss Defreytas, as Mercedes, and Mr. Han‘fen, as Marrable, showed tuemselves capable of really clever acting, while Mr. J. J.O°’Connor, who had perhaps the most trying part of all, acquitted him self with honor. Mr. Pareell, who per- sonated the rascal Dixor, showed the talents of a genuine actor. In fact al! did well, aad the company deserves congratu- lations for their successful rendering of the play. A crowded house greeted them laet vight. To-night, freed trom the handicap of an unfamiliar stage and in a play that will not call for so much susta‘ned em- otional effort, we expect to see the com- pany eclipse their last night’s success, To- night’s programme, which consists of that certainly draw a ful) house,and it is al most safe to say that a delightful evening may be expected. The music by St. Dunstan’s College orchestra was a most pleaeant portion of the entertainment. The selections were spir.tedly given, and generous bhaodclap- ping testified to the enjoyment of the aui- leuce. 2 oo Trerer Brrroxs have arrived. cps sk Abecweits.—Meeting at the Park this even ng at 7.30.

Martin aod Welsh, and proved highly satisfactory to Mr. Martin, the coming man for East Queen’s. James Kelly, Esq., occupied the chair in a creditable manuer. The residents, too, coaducted themselves, as usual, in an orderly and | praiseworthy manner, each of the speakera /receiving a good hearing. Mr. Welsh spoke first, and again re- | cited lis former statements respecting the jtrade question, Chignecto Railway and, | the Buffalo resolutions, showing the sym- pathy expressed on the death of the late | Bishop Ryan. A. Martin, Esq., replied in a splendid | apeech, recounting the steps which had to | be taken by private parties in this county ito do in railway matters what our Grit representatives should have done, viz., advocate their construction. Mr. Martin then dealt with the trade ques- tion, showing that we could not get people in the United States to take our produce asa gift, thatthe Grit Free Trade-U nre- stricted Reciprocity, Commercial U nion policy had collapsed—that they they had tacked “no Protection” t» their platform. He contended for Protection and exten son cf our own markets. Mr. Martin made a eplendid impression, and was loudly applauded. Hon. F. Peters followed with the same old speech, with this diff'rence that he is beginning to understand himself that Le knows nothing of the trade question, and very little about any other federal ques- tion. Mr. P. McCourt replied and dealt with the leading public questions in a balf hoursspeech. He remiaded Mr,.Welsh: that it woula be better to give the benelits of this policy of conciliation to the late and present Archbishops of St. Boniface than to the deceased Bishop of Buffalo. Messrs. Cummiskey, Garland and Web- ster also addressed the meeting, after which A. A. McLean, Esq., was called upon and enthusiastically received. He delivered a stirring speech and was listen- ed to with the utmost attention. After a short speech from Mr. Laverty and a vote of thanks te the chairman, three ringing cheers were given for Mr. Martin and the meeting closed. —_- ..._ POWNAL MEETING, The meeting held at Pownal last night was well attended and orderly. Mr. MeNeill, of Village Green, was ap- pointed chairman, Mr. Martin was the first speaker. He spoke for over an hour on the trade and other questions, and was listened to atten tively. Mr. Martin treated the questions fairly, and showed the audience that the National Policy was still the policy for Canada, Mr. Welsh followed. He still believed in free trade?’ He denounced the Chig. necto Railway, but did not explain Mr Davies’ vote on the question. He also de- nonnced the fast service. , Mr. A. A. McLean spoke next. He showed the benefit which the farmers will derive from the fast service by bemg ably to p'ace their produce, &=, quickly on the market, and the impetus it w.ll give to the dead meat business. Mr. H. C. McDonald was the next speaker. He directed his attack princi- pally against Dr. Jenkins, what he said were the Supplementary Estimates for 1896-97 (but which Mr. Martin, on rising to contradict his state- ments, discovered were the Estimates up to June 30th, 1896), and although Mr. Martin exposed his attempt to mislead the meeting, and Mr. Welsh admitted that Mr. McDonald was wrorg, he persisted in reading fromthe paper imaginary grants passed for railway subsidies last session. Mr. Farquharson followed, and spoke in favor of free trade. The hour being late Mr. F. had nottime toair his views at any great length. + ENTAHUSLASTEC MEETING AT O'LEARY -—— The big hall at O’Leary was filled to overflowing last evening to hear the Hon.

Mr. Ferguson was presented with a complimentary ad- adress, in response to which he spoke fo nearly two hours, vindicating the policy of the Government and showing up tue wob- bling and crookednese of the Opposition party. The mecting, which comprised mauy Liberals,. warmly applauded the speaker as he explained the manly and patriotic course of. the Government on the branch railway question as well as the trade and Manitoba questions, At the close cheers were given for Hon. Mr. Ferguson and Mr. Hackett. ————Dp.e-~a—— LITTLE YORK A large number of elector: were preset at Li:tle York Hall, on Saturday evening last, the 23rd inst., to hear the Hon.
