SHot-at A CHARIVARI.—Mr. Mark LeBlanc, of the Painsec settlement, parish of Moncton, was married recently, and on Monday night some of the spirits of the neighborhood as- sembled to charivcci the newly married couple. It appears, also, that some of the serenaders were animated by something more than fun, as they were on hand with loaded guns. When Napoleon LeBlanc, son of the groom, went out to protest against the vigor displayed by the serenaders he was set upon by the crowd and roughly used and beaten,and while standing near the door of his home, was met by a musket bullet which ploughed a piece out of the upper part of one ear, the bullet going out through his hat. He had the ear repaired in Moncton. ~—--—~<—- - -— Narrow Escare From Drownine.— Although yesterday was so very warm there was 4 fresh breeze blowing in the harbor al! day, rendering sailing a risky matter. As an old man named Dan McEachern was sailing up the West River about four o'clock his boat capsized off McGee’s Point, the first prominence west of Rocky Point Wharf. Robert Mutch and his brother Wallace, who happened to be swimming their horses near by at the time, seeing the accident, made all speed, manned a_ boat, and in a short time had the unfortunate man safe on shore. Thanks to their prompt action and other assistance rendered by people brought to the shore by news of the accident, the cld man was soon on his way to Rocky Point looking for his boat ready to venture again on his journey home- wards. = > THe Coton Line.—Rev.

C R asafirst class passenger. Reaching Amherst he went into the Railway Dining Saloon and sat down to his dinner with his fellow travellers. Some one in charge of the restaraunt ordered him to leave the table and offered him his dinner in another part of the room. Refusing to do this the reverend gentleman was ordered out of the restuarant and was compelled to go without his dinner. To-day again he took a friendly witness and seated himself with the other passengers at the table and was again refused his dinner but was told that if he would take another table apart from the other guests he would be served.

It appears that near the latter place a boy about twelve years of age got on the rear platform of the Pullman car of the up express evidently to steal a ride, and remained there until about a mile and a half west of the sta- tion, when be jumped off. The train was going at the rate of thirty miles an hour, and the unfortunate youth was pitched headlong to the ground, rebounding into the air, and falling back a corpse. A depression has been discovered in the Egyptian desert, which is all that remains of a reservoir constructed by the patriarch Joseph for irrigation purposes when he was Pharaoh’s Prime Minister. It is proposed to re-open it, and it has been estimated that this would add 3,200,000 acres to the 6,000,000 now under cultivation in Egypt. The reservoir originally covered 250 square miles, and was 250 feet deep. ee ‘1 have had a delightful evening,” he said, as he took his hat and rose to go. ‘* May | call again ?” ‘I shall be glad to see you,” she replied with a blush. As he walked out into the hall, he saw in the mirror of the hat-rack a reflection of the roughish girl slyly throwing a kiss at him, and heturned back. ‘‘I must have that in the original package,” he whispered.
