Tue Benrvortent Ixisn Socrery have decided to hold their annual pic-nic at St. Dunstan's College on Monday, the 15th of July next. Full particulars in a future advertisement. A man named Thomas Smith fell in a fit on King Street during the progress of the fire this morning. A hose-reel, which was coming down the street at the time, passed over him, inflicting severe injuries. Remember the Grand Temperance De- monstration and Public Tea, at Victoria Park, on Monday, Ist July. Should the weather prove unfavorable,it will take place the first tine day after. Tue great auction sale will be continued by F. 8S. Hanford at Keith’s late store, Queen square, to-night at 8 o’clock. Fancy Goods, Accordeons, Concertinas, Vases, Desks, Magic Lanterns, Chromos, Frames, etc., will be sold at a great sacrifice. Bearish Conpvuct.—Two poor French- men, with a dancing bear, came to Char- lottetown last evening. A crowd of roughs on the street immediately recognized their relationship to the bear. The ‘* bear” in them was ‘‘ raised,” and they commenced hooting and pelting stones in a most dis- graceful manner. The police were, as usual, not on hand at the right time. Sate or Sr. Avarps.—The estate of St. Avards—property of Hon. J C. Pope—di- vided into forty-three building lots, was sold by auction to-day, and realized a total of $10,415, or an average of nearly $1,000 racre. Messrs. Owen Connolly, John Bal, -L. Wright, J. E. Haszard, John Douse, Thos. Essery, Thos. Dodd, Arche, Holmes, Michael Green, John McLeod, Fredk. Stagman and John Morrissey were among the principal purchasers. THE BEST ON EARTH.—The now Wheeler and Wilson Sewing Machine was consider- ed by the judges of the American Institute to be the best machine in the world, and was awarded the Special Medal of the In- stitute, 1877, (and sustained by all the world’s exhibitions.) Now is the time to get the best machine at the lowest possible price, as Mr. Johnson, the General Agent, is in the city for a short time. Call at Chappelle’s Bookstore — ladies, ask for Clark’s Elephant Spool Cotton for all Sew- ing Machines. [june 18, eod if Tue “ Patriot,” although professing to be a murning paper, and wishing the public to believe that it is issued about 6 o'clock, a. m., is, in reality, nothing more than an evening sheet, issued about midnight. The circumstance of the fire this morning proves this fact. The alarm of fire was given at about 3 o’clock this morning, and had not the paper been then issued, we would, no doubt, have had an account of the conflag- ration in this morning’s ‘*‘ Patriot.” We are justified, therefore, in saying that our morning paper is issued not later than 3 o'clock. Tue steamer Worcester arrived from Bos- ton this morning at 4 o’clock, with a cargo of merchandize and the following passen- gers :—Mr. Oliver Smith and nephew, Mr. J. G. Litea, Dr. Miles, Mrs. Hannah Mc- Guire and two children, Miss Catherine Mc- Donald, Miss Maggie Nicholson, Miss Jane Beek, Miss Mary A. Murphy, Miss Annie McCarey, Miss Isabella Manson, Mrs. H. A. Heath, Miss Kate McDonald, Mr. John Campbell, Mr. Angus Murchison, Mr. Thos. LeBlanc, Mr. B. Sane, Mr. W. Richard- son, ee The New Brunswick Elections. The St. John Globe says, the elections on Saturday were decidedly against the Local Government. The Opposition completely swept the County of Westmorland, it carried two men in Restigouche and one in King’s, and apparently one in Queen’s. It is true that a former member of the Op- position in King’s County was beaten, owing to a variety of circumstances, but Dr. Vail, an Oppositionist, was elected in his place, leaving that county in precisely the position it was before. Out of eleven members elected on Saturday at least seven ) if not eight, are against the Local Admin- istration as the matter stands. It is use- less to speculate upon what may happen, but the facts so far reveal a very strong eeling against the Government, and unmis- bly point out that had there been a de- ined and organized effort to defeat them they would have been defeated. Their feconstruction in part saved them frou overwhelming disaster, the disposition of many persons being not to hold the new Provincial Secretary responsible for the acts of his predecessors. The Irish make their way everywhere. At Queen Victoria’s last levee, Paddy Lim- jee, of Bombay, was presented by the Sec- Tetary of State for India. —oncrteeneeaeettiasoennenstneieinetiuetipasieabenus NEWS BY (Special Desputeh to Examiner, ) Birr, June 26. ids me : lo-day’s sitting of Congress began at 2 and clos cl at 0 oclock this afternoon ‘ . .

Bishop Conroy, the Apostolic Delegate, has arrived at Halifax, N. S., and was the guest of Archbishop Hannan until Tuesday last, when he sailed for Newfoundland. Senator Stanley Matthews, having inter- rogated yesterday as to the truth of the re- port that he had concluded to appear be- fore the Potter Committee, said the statement was erroneous. Sir Henry Thompson, the famous sur- geon and artist, will probably be brought forward asa candidate for the University of London at the next election. If he stands, it will be at the special instance of the medical profession and as representative of their claims. *¢Joaquin” Miller’s real name is Cincin- natus Heine Miller. . Joaquin is a nick- name given him at the California gold mines. Formerly affecting his rough miner's costume at all times and in all places, he is now very fastidious, and wears cloth and linen of the finest quality. The ‘Songs of the Sierras” made his fortune. A News special says:—Instructions have been finally issued from the Vatican to the Neapolitan Bishops to take the Royal ex- equatur, and revenues and palaces of the diocese. Hitherto the Bishops have ignored the casgreatur and received monthly sub- scriptions from the Vatican, but the great falling off in Peters-Pence renders the strict- est economy necessary. The news of the aitack of Nobeling on the Emperor of Germany reached the Crown Prince and Princess in the midst of a brilliant entertainment at Hatfield House, the seat of Lord Salisbury. Their Royal Highnesses instantly prepared for departure for Berlin—and so little time was lost that, though the attack took place only at 2 p.m., the royal party, leaving Hatfield at 6 p.m., quitted Charing Cross Station at 8.30 en youte for Berlin, which they reached eighteen hours afterwards. Mr. Bradlaugh is not easy to catch hold of. Under evidence which morally appear- ed clear enough in his condemnation, he has again and again escaped punishment through-some legal quibble. After he had obtained a rule nisi, calling upon the justices of Middlesex to show cause why an order made by Mr. Vaughan, directing the de- struction of 600 copies of the ‘ Fruits of Philosophy” should not be set aside, the Lord Chief Justice said the Court were of opinion that the order was deficient in es- sentials. The magistrate had undoubtedly found that the book was obscene, but had failed to show, which was equally necessary, The rule, therefore, was made absolute. The death of Charles Mathews, the vet- eran actor, is announced. His life was a long one. He was born in 1803. In 1853 he married Madame Vestris. In 1858, his first wife being dead, he married Mrs. Davenport. Mathews played to the last; he did not lag superfluous on the stage. When Garrick died, Johnson vt a his ath ‘‘eclipsed the gaiety of nations” ; oan on an death of Charles Mathews a similar sentiment may be indulged in, with even more propriety; for while the triumphs of Garrick were confined to London, Sen reeaeetnee-eet et TELEGRAPH, | that its publication was a misdemeanor. ° ae —— ee - EXAMINATION Uf the City Public Schools, a f PUBLIC EXAMINATION will be held in each of the City Schools on THURS.
