Fletcher, of Salem, Oregon, writing toa friend in thie city, pays the following well-deserved tribute to the worth of his sist>r, recently deceas- ed, the late lamented Mrs. Young : — “ You may well say she was a good wee man. She was one of the masterpieces of Nature’a worke, and with the exception of her mother, after whom she was clos-ly modelled, I can truthfully say I never knew a better woman. 1 think no living person knew Bella so wellasI. We toddied and played togeiber in our infancy, we lived in sweet communion together in our youthful daye, under the guidance of adiscreet and loving mother, and in maturer vears our love and attachment tor each other seemed to grow stronger as time passed. I mever knew my sister to be guilty of an unbecoming act. She wasa pure, guileless girl, and after wards blossomed into # noble wowan. When we were all at bome cic was the life and light of the family. She was so womanly, so cheerful, so full of story and fun, so sympatbetic and kind at all tinoes and "under all citeamstances (but the sound of ber voice seemed to make us all happy and fil] the old ome with mugic and sunesine. She was benevolence intensified. She gave to the poor with an uostinted hand. She loved everybody. Wheo she used to visit her old home at Orwell, the elderly women of the place would flook to Hee her. She wus 80 bright, cheerful, social and Joving that she became a universal favorite. Ab! bow well they knew, “‘That best portion of a woman’s life, Her little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.” But she is gone. She has fought the last fight, and conquered the jast enemy. lil were asked the reason of my tis- ter’s popularity I would say that it was because of her sunny disposition and her charity. She had, indeed, that “‘ charity that never faileth.” Proptecies fail ; tongues forgotten, apd knowledge fades away like the eunlightof tne evening, but charity endureth forever. It is greater than faith, graoder than knowledge,brigbter than the star of hope which giiis the cradle and illumines the grave. 1: i3 because she possessed this virtue in such ao aoneua! degree thatwe loved our deceased sister so weil.” eee eee McGILL UNIVERSITY.

The coecert in the Opera House last evening was a success from every point of view. The excellent programme prepared for the ovcasiow was carried out in 4 maR- ner which delighted the large aud fashion- able audience, and the hope was expre-se4 that it would not be long before Mr. Karle would give the theatre-going public anotber Oppo tunity of participating in a similar feasi of good things, The firet part of ibe progremme Consisted of vocal and instru- menial mu-ic and dances, and the masy encores demanded testified to the apprecia- tion of the audience. The second part was made up of abcrieeque on “Cinder ella,” the charactera in which were taken by Misees Florence Earle, Amy Karle, Lillian Collings, May Stewart, Winuie Collinge, M. Earle, Nettie Ross, Louise Bremner, Gertrude Ross, M. Irwin, Daisy Douse, aod Mr. E. BH. Mitchell. Ali the characters were in capable hands, and muck amusement was afforded. Where rach did so well it is p-rnaps unfair to single out any for special mention, but the exceligot manner im which the parts of Mise Jones and Mrs, Jarvey were inter- preted by the Misses Florence and Amy Harle deayandsi!. Both ladiee carried out their paris with a fidelity to detail that ig not alway» exhibited by amateurs, and gave evidence of the puseession of much histrionic ability. The concert was under the distinguished patronage of the Gover- vor and Mrs. Mclotyre, the Mayor and Mrs. Warburton, and the Bishop of Char- lottetown.

We ure informed that the evidence is stil] in the hands of the stenographer and that Premier Fargubar} eon will pot give him time or lioerty to +xtend the report cf evidence to submit to ihe commissioners. Hence the commis- sioners cannot make a report. This plainly speaks the rotten coadition of the Goveroment. The commissioners made 4 mistake when they did cot take notes of ibe evidence thomselves, and turn the key oo Mr. Farquharson, as be bad no business to be present at the investigatior, muca lees to atk apy questions ae to its manage meut, aod on the witness stand he himeelf should have been thoroughly examined. Iam also credibly informed that a lot of repairs on roads are being made in the Fort Augustus District. Itis time for the ‘taxpayers .o puta stop tothis kind of work.

Vitality, when at a low ebb, works at a great disadvantage, and much time is required to regain the lost strength and power. Pabst Meee produces marvellous results in such cases. The rich food of the malt goes direct to the blood without further digestion, and the hop prin- ciple gives tone to the stomach, ereates a desire for food and the ability to digest it.
