DECEM A year and a half have rolled away ; and the Dairy Examiner still lives. Indeed it may now be truly said that the Dairy Examiner is one of the “ institu- tions” of the Province. An appetite for a daily paper has been formed; and, judging by the increasing sales of the Dairy Examiner in ihe city, along the line of railway, and in the various towns throughout the Province, it is doubtful if the people could live without their daily paper. Hard though the times and. dark the pros- pect of the coming winter, it is our inten- tion to continue the publication of the Dairy Examiner, so that the popular de- mand may be supplied. Throughout the winter we intend to sup- ply to the public, by means of the Dairy ExaMINER, a daily telegra:n containing news of all the notable events which shall tran- spire throughout the world in this great crisis of its history. Through the Darty Examiner the people of the Island shall—from day to day—and, independently of the Northern Light or Muttart and Lrving—be informed of what is transpiring in Afghanistan, in Russia, in Germany, in the neighboring Republic, and most important of all—in the mother eountry. We shall, if possible, send a special cor- respondent to report for the Datty Examt- NER the Parliamentary proceedings at Ottawa, with special reference to those which most directly and most deeply inter- est the people of this Island. The local news shall be given through the Datty ExaMINER promptly, truly and as full as possible. For the large means required to carry out this work we look tuo the people whose wants the Dairy Examiner will supply, and whose varied interests we shall assidu- ously endeavor to promote. The original subscribers of the Datty EXAMINER will, in the course of a few days, be called upon for a renewal of their favors. The beginning of another term is a good time to subscribe ; and persons who have not hitherto taken the Darry Examiner would do well to subscribe now. In connection with the Datty ExaMINER the WEEKLY EXAMINER will be issued, at the unprecedentedly low subscription price of ONE DOLLAR a year-—payment to be made in advance. DR.

Fair head against my heart, White hands held fast in mine Sweet lips that barely part, Soft arms that fondly twine ! As down the silent stream We crift in a dream. The rustling foliage near Sighs with mournful tune ; liigh in the trees we hear The south wind’s dying moan : Still down the silent stream, We drift, and drifting,dream. ‘The sun sinks in the West ; The wild fowl hurry by; And passing to their rest, They chant a lullaby : While borne upon the stream, We gently drift, and dream. he bittern’s lonely cry Comes faintly thro’ the ni The wild swan far on high Pursues her silent flight As down the quiet stream We slowly drift, and dream. it; 1 vt 5 Ah! should our voyage last, Through all eternity, Thy arms to hold me fast Would welcome fetters be ; forever down the stream To slowly drift, and dream. Duelling in France. The duel between Gambetta and DeFour- ton seems to have been a wretched bit of comedy. ‘They were so far apart that inas- much as the weather was foggy, they could scarcely have seen each other, and there are grounds for the suspicion that the result of the affair of honor was pre-arranged. One of the Paris correspondents says that the conditions of the duel remind him of the Vaudeville burlesque, in which there is an encounter with sabres at ten paces dis- tance. ‘*The real danger,” he says, ‘‘would have been for the seconds had they been imprudent cnough not to be under shelter, for at thirty-five paces the deviation of balls presents the greatest risk.” When the affair was happily over, the four seconds shook hands and the duellists raised their hats to each other. The cause of war was Gambetta’s exclamation, ‘‘That is a lie, Monsieur !” ~——_> «32° a. Barl Beaconsfield. K. G. On the 22nd ult., Sir Albert Woods, Gar- ter Principal King of Arms, went to Wind- ser Castle and placed the arms and banners of the Earl of Beaconsfield in the choir of St. George’s Chapel. The banner of the Premier, and scarf, sword and helmet were hung among the Insignia of the Knights of the Garter above the stalls on the right or Sovereign side of the chapei, and are the last of the row, the position facing the reredos. An ormula plate bearing his Lordship’s arms was alse aflixed to the back of his stall. Beneath the crest is the motto, “‘ Forti nihil difflcile,’ and underneath a suitable inscription. Earl Beaconsfield visited the Queen, and was driven from Windsor Station in one of the Royal car- riages to the castle. The Premier dined with the Queen, slept at the Palace, and re- turned to London next day. ee ee Deaths in the Royal Family. The death of the little Princess Marie of Hesse, says the Times, reminds us that up to the present date Her Majesty has had born to her no Jess than 26 grandchildren, vut of whom she has hitherto lost only five. According to ‘‘ Lodge’s Peerage,” the list of these deaths is as follows: Ist, Prince Francis Frederick Sigismund, son of the Imperial Prince and Princess of Germany, died June, 1866, aged 2; 2nd, Prince Frederick William Augustus Victor Leo- pold Louis, son of the Princess Alice and of the Grand Duke of Hesse, accidentally killed by a fallin May, 1873, aged 24 ; 3rd, Prince Frederick Christian Augustus Leo- pold Edward Harold, son of the Princess Helena and Prince Christian, died May, 1876, aged one week ; 4th, Prince Alexan- der John Charles Albert, son of the Prince and Princess of Wales, died in April, 1871, aged one day ; 5th, the Prince Marie of Hesse, aged 4. Bismarck’s Characteristics. Prince Bismarck is always spoken of as a great statesman. But he has other remark- able characteristics, some of which are men tioned in his biography by Dr. Busch. His knowledge of cookery is said to be pro- digious. He can discourse on all the known varieties of fish; he has original views about the frying of oysters ; he has a won- derful comprehension of the different shades of cheese ; and he can talk by the hour on the relative qualities of wines. During the war the French were roundly told that if they wanted to get a pleasant treaty of peace they must give him good dinners, and he threatened to chastise Baron Roths- child’s stewart at Ferrieres for vefusing to provide the King with some of the many thousand bottles of wine which were locked up in the cellar. He once telegraphed to Germany for a fresh supply of gin. Hap- pily, the strength of the great theologicai statesman’s head is as remarkable as his theoretical acquaintance with the mysteries of viutages and malt. ‘‘ He has beaten topers and beer-houses” with a complete- ness in which he has taken a just pride a quarter of a century afterwards, and ‘‘ he can challenge assembled humanity ” to out- do him in the art of remaining perfectly sober under difficult conditions. Domestic Economy. | A competency is essential to happiness and comfort. It is wise in a young man, in selecting a wife, not to be wholly indif- | ferent to the consideration whether she has | been brought up to save or to waste. A iwise economy is much further removed {from meainess than that reckless extravag lance which leaves nothing for oneself or anybody else. The love and poetry of the honeymoon are seldom long preserved with- out something in the locker. Mothers should teach and danghters should learn, domestic economy. They ought to insist upon this, as of the greatest importance. wee Courage. A great deal of talent is Jost in the world for the want of a little courage. Every day sends to the grave a number of obscure men, who have only remained in obscurity because their timidity has prevented them from making a first effort; and who, if they could have been induced to begin, would, in all probability, have gone great lengths in fame. The fact is, to do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering, and thinking of the cold and the danger, but jump in and scrample through as well as we can. It will not do to be perpetually calculating tasks, and ad- justing nice chances; it did very well before the flood, where a man could consult his friends upon an intended publication for a hundred and fifty years, and then live to see its success afterward. Bat at present, a man waits, and doubts, and hesitates, and consults his brother, and his uncle, and his particular friend, till, one fine day, he finds he is sixty years of age; that he has lost so much time in consulting his first cousin and particular friend, that he has no mere time to follow their advice. ~ <> A Correspondent asks the - following questions :— What is the family name or surname of Queen Victoria? «,\What are the names of her children in the order of their birth ? What are the names of those of them that are married, and to whom ! The family name of Queen Victoria is Guelph. The names of her children are as fol- lows :-— Victoria, born 1849, married to the Crown Prince of Prussia. Aibert Edward, Prince of Wales, born 1841, married to Alexandra, daughter of the King of Denmark. Alice, born 1843, married to Prince Lud wig of Hesse. Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, born 1844, married to Marie, only daughter of the Emperor of Russia. Helena, born 1846, married to Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonder- burg-Augustenburg. Louise, born 1848, married to John Doug- las Sutherland Campbell, Marquis of Lorne. Arthur, Duke of Connaught, born 1850, unmarried. Leopold, born 1853, unmarried. Beatrice, born 1857, unmarried. ~—— ——@? © a—-——- ~ The 10lst Regiment. The ‘‘ Lancet” brings a serious charge against the authorities who were respon. sible for selecting the Black Watch and the 101st Regiment for duty in Cyprus. Both these regiments, as is well-known, have suf- fered heavily froin malarious fever in Cyprus, and the ‘‘ Lancet” contends that their liability to attack of fever ought to have been perfectly well-known tothe Gen- eral Staff; and that being so, they should never have been sent to Cyprus without in- quiry as to its suitableness from a sanitary point of view. The 101st is still suffering severely at Halifax from Cyprus fever, and the 42nd has a heavy list of men inaffective from sickness. The ‘** Lancet” states that neither the principal medical officer at Mal- ta nor the Director General at home was consulted. These officers knew that the 42nd had had suffered heavily from fever in the Ashantee war, and had acquired a susceptibility to malarious fever which it will take years to shake off. The 101st was exposed to the same risks from its service in India; and no one acquainted with their condition would have sent either of the regiments to Cyprus. The ‘* Lancet” speaks of the notoriously hostile” feeling of the Duke of Cambridge towards the medi- cal Department, and suggests that in future he should condescend to take counsel with the responsible medical authorities on ques- tions regarding the lives, the health, and the general fitness of the men of any corps for special service. => + Sensible Advice.
