Word has been received at the Marine nd Fisheries department at Ot'awa tha egal fishing is going on among the Gev ernment oyster beds at Shedias, N. B. For ve years the beds have been constituted a Government reserve and were used for all manoer of experiments This year a imter of new oysters had been placed i the reserve with the object of ascertaining w thev are gong to turn out, and Pro fessor Prince, Dominion Fisheries Con, missioner, who had charge of the experi ment, is pow exercised to know j13t how far the depredations have gone. He fears that the illegal fishing will e,oil the entir experiment, and is in commun:ca tion with the local inspector to know how far the trouble has gone, and also with : view to having the preserve more carefully guarded lt is thought that the fishing must have been done under cover o larknes*, so that probably the thio; ran on for some time befure being dis- pvered.

It has been the cherished plan of party men to make the tariff the rallying cry of the 1896 cam- paign, but the enemy have opened a gap tn another quarter, a weak spot and not a feint or mask to trap the unwary. They have given the Republican forces a pew opportunity, and forced the lighting on other lines.

With a Repubi.- can sound money administration and Re- publican sound money Congress, wise tariff revision will be assured.

A London despatch says: Several most important discoveries have just been made in Cairo bearing upon the history of the Christian Church in the first two centuries of the era. Among them is a manuscript from the fifth century which a Cuptic translation of the original Gnostic writ- ings of the second century. Its value con- sists not only inthe fact that it hands lown old Gnostic writings that have hitherto been unknown by name, but above all, in the circumstance that one of them was known tolrenaeus and epito- mized by him, without any statement of the source from which he had derived it The discovery of this manuscript enables us for the first timeto test the accounts of the Gnostic tystem as given by the Church Fathers in the light of the orig- ional manu-cript. It contains three in- dependent treatises entitled * The Gospel according to Mary of the Apocryphon of John”; second, “The Wisdom of Jesus Christ”; third,“*The Practice of Peter”; “The Gospel of Mary” is the document used by Irenaeus, and consists mainly of the revelation of St. John. ©The Wisdom of Jesus Christ,” consists of questions putito him by hisdesciples,and his answers. “The Practice of Peter” is a narritive of one of Peter’s miracles of healing. - ——--- <i> ———_._...
