It is currently reported in Digby that Ameraeu broke down on Monday evening, and con- fessed to being the murderer of Mrs. Carltor. it is said he was in tears the most of the evening, and sent for his priest. —_——_»——_—- Sap Drownrye Accipent.—On Monday morning, between five and six o'clock, the body of John Brennan, belonging to Pictou, who has lately been keeping a junk shop on Irving’s wharf, was discovered in the water. An i:quest was held, After deliberation the jury returned the following verdict:— ‘That the said John Brennan came to his death at Pictou, from suffocation and drowning ia the waters of the harbor ot Pictou, while laboring under an aberration of mind produced by ex- cessive indulgence in alcoholic liquors.” Qrviniis Tue Plaindealer of the 18th instant, pub- lished at New Glasgow, N.S., announces that Mr. John Ross, formerly of oss’ Weekly, Charlottetown, is now on its staff, ‘‘in the capacity of manager." For many years Mr. Ross has been connected with the Press of this Province. oss’ Weekly had, at one time, a large circulation, especially among the ten- antry, whose cause against landlordism it espoused. The great fire of 1866 destroyed Mr. Ross’ printing office. The politicians whose cause he advocated, as is too often the case, deserted him in his difficulties. We wish Mr, Ross success in his new position. cil We are pleased to learn that Mr. T. 8S. Cole, the travelling secretary for the Young Men’s Christian Associations of Canada will give a Bible reading, on Christian work, to- morrow (Sunday) evening, in the Baptist Meeting House. Meeting commences at 6.30 o'clock. Itis said by those who attended some of these Bible readings, at the Y. M. C. A. Hall, during the week, that they could have listened for hours, they were so very interesting and profitable. No doubt all who can well avail themselves of the oppor- tunity of hearing this, which is, probably, the last Mr. Cole will give here for the pres- sent, as he intends leaving for the other Prov- inces on Monday. is Cricket.—The Wanderers Team of Halifax arrived here last evening and are staying ot the Rankin House. oe to the wet weather they did not play at Moncton as was originally intended, but came on to Charlotte- town. The team is composed of H. M. McDonald, W. H. Brooktield, X. Oxley, W. Neal, jr., E.G Kenny, F. A. Kaizer, heh Cochrane, R. H. Humphry, L. J. Fuller. W. A. Henry, jr. Twocomplete matches will be played at the Perk—one on Monday and the return match on Tuesday. Much interest 1s being manifested in these matches by the pub- lic, and they will doubtless be well contested. The Phenix have bsen playing very regularly during the past week, though they labor under the disadvantage of having so few members that it has been imposssible to play any maiches among themselves, Our sympathy of course is with our own men, and we can do no more than wish them success. > _ — Vesterpay news reached us of the strike of the Telegraph operators in connection with the Western Union Telegraph Company. The demands which they made cannot be called extravagant or out of the question. They desire the abolition of Sunday work which seems to be very reasonable indeed. They complain that their hours are too long, and that eight hours constitute a days work, and seven hours a nights work. They want men and women to be on an equality, and last, bat most important, they demand an increase of 15 per cent. on wages To give an idea of the strength of the Telegraph Brotherhood, the following list will be of interest: Toronto, 289 members; Montreal, 1230; Halifax, N, S., 40; St. John, N.

Loch Katrine’s bonnie banks an’ braes, Though lang I’ve left them a’, laddie, Thochts o’ them, an’ ither days Maist break my heart in twa, laddie. Fu’ thretty years o’ storm an’ shine Sin’ first we crossed the ocean’s brine, Yet closely roond oor hearts entwine The mem’ ries o’ lang syne, laddie. Oh! mind ye o’ the leafy bowers Within the sylvan shade, laddie, Where aft we pu’d the wild-wood flowers, Ag warblers stirred the glade, laddie? Wi’ step sae baoyant, firm an’ free I hurried tae the trystin’ tree— Sae sacred then tae Love an’ thee, To love, an’ thee, an’ me, laddie. In school, at sport, in whirlin’ dance, Thy rival was nae seen, laddie, Nae ither suitor won a glance Frae me,'the village queen, laddie. Then ebon was my glossy hair, Thy crown o’ curls was gowden fair ; Now Time—-wha rich nor puir will spare— Has bleached oor locks to sna, laddie. Nae mair upon auld Scotia’s shore — Wi’ willing feet we'll stray, laddie. Nor greet the freens we loved o’ yore, The yore sae far away, laddie.

Nae mair we'll watch the rushin’ tide Sweep ower ‘he yellow sands, laddie, But far ayont the ither side We'll clasp the lang missed hands, laddie. Yes ! far ayont the mist an’ rain, An’ days o’ toil, an’ nichts o’ pain, Wide scattered flocks wi}] meet again Nae mair tae pairt for aye, laddie. As frost dispels ‘fore kindly thaw When spring's saft breezes blow, laddie, So gently may we slip awa’ . Tae joys nae mortals know, laddie. For as the sun clears aff the dew, Our withered lives will bloom anew, When this fause world shall fade frae view In fairer worlds abune, laddie.
