REVEREND AND DEAR Sir.—As a smal! token of our appreciation of your efforts on behalf of Tem- perance, and towards the suppression of the illegal traftic in intoxicating liquors, and as an humble assurance that the friends of Temperance will stand by and uphold those who sacrifice and suffer for the cause, on behalf of the friends of Temperance we, whose names are on the accom- panying subscription list, respectfully request you to accept the accompanying set of ha:ness, which has just taken first —o atthe King’s County Exhibition. And while we deplore the fact that the incendiary, the assassin and the burglar have to be faced and fought in the struggle for the suppression of this degrading traffic, we can rejoice with you that this willbe the means of drawing the lines more distinctly between those who fight for home, peace and sobriety, and those who set at defiance the laws of God and man, and seek to establish a system of mob rale only toler- ated in countries far down in the scale of civili- zation. That you may be spared to see your labors crowned with success, and that you may largeiy articipate in the blessings you have so liberally Lelped to confer on your fellow creatures, is the sincere wish of all friends of temperance, law and order.

In reply, Father Phelan said : RF PLY. To Messrs. J. C. UNDERHAY, A. J. McINNIs, JAMES M. AITKEN, RONALD McCorMAckK, JOHN A. Lawson, BERNARD McGuiean, (Com- mittee): GENTLEMEN,—I feel exceedingly thankful to you for this address, and the friendly manner in which you have spoken of me. I should be very ungrateful, indeed, if I did not feel’ pleased for the compliment which you have paid me by pre- senting me with this beautiful address, and your very eenerens gift. Ineed scarcely say that it was altogether unexpected, and that I have never done anything in the cause of temperance which should deserve such a token of your good wishes towards one who has done so very little for the noble cause. You¢ean, I am sure, by your words and actions, to protest against the outlawed deeds of the rum-sellers, I hope that your words and deeds of this day will be the means of en- ; couraging me in my future efforts in the glorious cause ef temperance. I think that I have always been humble enough to feel thatI was never deserving of half the praise given me for my little work ina cause so noble. I know the sentiments expressed by you were the outpourings of your hearts, and de will be remembered by me with the deepest gratitude. In conclusion, gentlemen, allow me to state | that my individual efforts in the causef temper ‘ance would be of very little avail if they were not backed by the work and encouragement of these strong temperance men | see around me on the present occasioa, Again thanking you for your address and generous gift, lam, Gentlemen, ~ Yours, WM.

Among the arrivals at the Metropolitan Hotel this morning, was a young women | !from the north, with a young baby, pro-| bably ten days old. The women gave her! name ag Johnson, and said she was from P EK. Island. This morning early it was found that the woman had left her room, but had not taken her child. Marshall | Thibideau made enquires this morning, found that the woman got on the train at Chatham Junction, with 2od class ticket LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, —————— Jersey's at the Exhibiticn. Sir,-—In looking over the Prize List for the Prov‘ncial Exhibition, I notice that prizes are cflered for the best Jersey Bull, any age, and best Jersey Cowin milk. (This is very good, but it does.not go far enough. In the classes Shorthorn and Ayrshire, I find that prizes are not only offered for bulls and cows, but for bull calves, heifers and heifer calves. Why not the same with the Jerseys. ? It isa well- known fact that they are a breed superior to the Shorthorn or Ayrshire for dairy purposes, and that enterprising farmers and stock raisers on the Island are acknowledging the fact by adding them to their stocks. This being the case, we cannot see why their class at the Provincial Exhibition is not placed on the same level as Shorthorns, Ayrshires or even grades. If Commicsioners recognize Jerseys at all, why not the whole family ? Yours, etc... Joun McDonatp. Died for the Faith. TERRIBLE MASSACRE OF GHRISTIANS AT ANNAM—HEARTRENDING STORIES OF S8UF- FERING AND BLOODSHED. Pants, Sept. 25—The clerical newspapers here declare that fully 24,000 Christians were murdered in the recent outbreak in Annam. The massacres have sent a thrill of horror through France. Heartrending accounts are published of the suffering of missionaries and their flocks at Meanha in Annam. The Superior of the College and a whole host of Christians were slaughter- ed, and some were thrown into the sea with their hands tied behind their backs. Some missionaries tried to make a stand with muskets, but were soon defeated. The churches,schools and dwelling houses were everywhere burned, and the Christians who escaped had to walk for days without food or shelter to reach places of refuge. Gen- eral DeCourcey is accused by the mission- aries of having taken no steps to save them. ————_ i> <<. The OO: P. RB. Latest advices ehow that the most diffi- enit parts of the construction of the read in the Rockies and Selkirks have been com- pleted. On the 11th inst. the track from the east had reached a puint sixteen milea west of the summit of the Selkirks, avd 2.503 miles west of Montreal. The work here is somewhat heind time, owing to continuovs hot weather. The raile, which are being laid eastward from Pert Meody have reached Sicamocse Narrows, 110 m'les from Savona’s Ferry, the eastern end of the Onderdonk ec ntract, and 323 miles east of Port Moody. This left at that Cate a gap between the 2,503°d and the 2 572nd miles from Montreal of about 69 miles on which the track has not yet been laid, The work on this section is well advanced and most of it ready for the track, Unless de- cidedly unpropitious weather is experienced the last rail will be laid by the 15th of October, and the whole distance of 2,896 miles, from Muntreal to Port Moody, be nearly ready for reguiar travel. It may be added that the ballesting, surfacing, and telegraph line construction are kept up with the advancing rail. iin ~tih asi Aleem seadiils Beer vs. Whiskey in U. 8 , 1884-5. The amount of money expended for drink by the people of the United States during the year 1884 5, has been estimated and an examination shows some interesting facts. First of all, the amount of alcoholic liquors distilled during the past year is considerably smaller than 1884, the figures being 69,156,002 gallons for the former twelvemonth against 70.616 001 gallons for the latter—a decrease of 10 459.999 yal- lons. The increase in malt liquors amount- ed to 172,254 barrels, being 19,180 906 bartels fig the fiscal year ending June, 30, 1885, and 18,998,649 for the previous year. The natural interence is that less whiskey was drunk last year, slthough the population of the country was augmented. This conclusion is borne out by the returns showing the number of liquor dealers in the United States. In 1884, these who retailed distilled liquors numbered 189,677 —-a falling off of 3.215. But the retailers for Moncton. Her whereabouts now are not | known. She is described as a tall woman, | dark hair, wearing sack and st:aw hat. The| child is agirl, said to bo quite pretty.

The woman, it has of malt liquors increased 1,048, while the breweries decreased from 2,240 to 2,202. it would be hard to account for this de- crease in the nse of alcoholic spirits or to state exactly where it was most felt. It ray be that just as much whiskey as usual was drunk, but that there was a large fall- ‘ing off in its use in the arts, It may be that there is gradually gaining ground the notion that whiskey-and water is a better beverage then whiskey straight. It may be that the Prohibition vote of last year re- presented more teetotalers than was sup- posed to be true. It may be that the consumption of beer is really lessening the consumption of hard liquors, Probably no one of these guggestions covers the case, but all of them are needed to explain the results deduced from the figures given. ls ae i NOTES. | Not the promissory, but /actw about Weucoms Soap, an article that dues not con- tain one particle of the adulterstions used to reduce the cost of ‘‘Sure Goods,” but does ‘possess the value of legitimate Washing Qualities, the demand for which provea the advantage gained by the use of the genuine over Soaps of doubtful character.
