A very pleasant gathering of friends and oeighbors was held at the residence of Patrick Keid, Esq., at Hope River, on Thursday even. ing’ the 7th January, inst. the inclemency of the weather and the bad state of the roads prevented many from being present who were invited, notwithstanding, the house was well filled, and every one seem- ed delightod with the entertainment provided by theic kind host and hostess. The music provided for the occasion was excellent and in good taste, After a very sumptuous hot supper was served, Mr, Patrick Reid came forward and said that it was customary at their family re- unions before the party separated to make a few remarks, and as we were entering on anoiher New Year a review of the past would aot be out of place. He then called upon sev- eral gentlemen present in turn to speak. Mr. Thomas Reid, Dr. MeNeill, Rev. D. Reid, Win. H. Hogan and others expressed their views. The speech of the evening, however, was mada by Thomas Reid, Esq., of Camp- bellton, New Londea—the eldest brother of the faurily, and from it the writer desires to make a few remarks. He gave a review of the formation of the settlement of Hope River, and said the earlv settlers came here rot of their owa free will and accord, but on account of the oppression and tyranny of the landlord system, which drove them from their homes In the old country to P. E. Island. Hope River was then a wilderness and they had to hew down the forest to make a home. He spoke of the tender memories of childhood and boyhood as being one of the ever present faculties pre- sent in our last days or hours if we have our senses. He feelingly spoke of Hope River aad ite homesteads in those days and the hard- ships which their forefathers endured, end their homes being remarkable for little else than their poverty, and when he spoke of poverty he did it with an honest pride, as he believed that poverty gave to them the self- reliance and the determination to overcome difficulties with the sweat of their brow, while those who had weslthy parents not dependiug upon their own abilities for a home had fallen behind, and in some instances were a burden tothe public. In tender and appropriate terms he spoke of the parents over whose graves the sod was now green. The writer had not the pleasuie of the acquaintance ot the father of the Messrs. Reids, but the mother I have knowa, and to know her was to respect and admire—her husband, called away from her when her famiiy of sons and daughters were not grown up, with a small farm of 36 acres for their maintenance. The Reid famiuy deserve great credit, as it can bs said of the sons now living, one of whom is the Rev. D. Reid, if Charlottetown, six others be- ing am -ngst the most thrifvy of our well-to-do New London farmers, and are all settled with- in eight miles of each other.

ToxontTo, Jan. 8.—-The Empire, referring to the Globe’s attack on Lady Macdonaid, says: The bitterness of political conflict has never evolved a more unmanly ana indecent display of feeling than the leading editorial of the Globe yesterday. In con- nection with an attack by a North-west paper upon Mr. Dewdney, Minister of the Interior, who gives a prompt and explicit denial to the charge, the Globe introduces in a coarse and uncsiled for manner the mame of Lady Macdonald, who had not been mantioned at aliin the matter. If there be any justification for vilifying Sir John Macdonald’s memory on the score of his public career and official actions excus- ing a measure of criticism, there is none for singling out Lady Macdonald in this way without a shadow of warrant.

The Mini- ster of Finance made immediate represen- tations to the Colonial Secretary in Lon- don, and very soon thereafter received as- surances that Canadian products would re- ceiv3in all respects most favored nation trva:ment, and that the Cuban and Porto Rican authorities had been so instructed.
