She was built by Joseph McGill, of Shelburne, especially for the fishery protec- tion service, and is well adapted for the work. She is built for speed, but an opportunity has not yet been presented to test her in this re- spect. The despatch with which the work was carried on speaks well of the builder. Forty days after the keel was hauled into the yard, the vessel was at the Marine and Fish- eries Wharf in this city. Capt. Quigley is in command, and before the season closes will make the name of the C. H. Tupper known to the continent.

Hatrrax, June 20. When the General Assembly opened this morning, Mr. McDonnell continued his arguments against the resolution declaring the liquor traflic contrary to the Word of God. If it were, he said, every seller, every manufacturer and every drinker should not be allowed church ordinances. This resolution required that every one of these must be disciplined. He argued that each one should be asked to do what he could for the suppression of the liquor trattic in the way he thought best. Mr. Herridge, of Ottawa, seconded Mr. McDonnell’s amendment, which was also supported by Dr. McRae, of St. John, but the following was carried by a vote of 149 to 10:—That the Assembly declares its con- viction that the general traflic in intoxicat- ing liquor is contrary to the Word of God, and the spirit of the Christian religion, that total prohibition would be the most effective form of temperance legislation, that it is in the highest degree expedient that they should pass an efticieut liquor law and therefore the assembly urges upon all the members of the Church to use all ligitimate means to secure such legisla- tion.§ Mr. MacDonell entered his dissent as did also one or two others. A deputation was appointed to wait on the Methodist Conference in session to- day. The Committee of Systematic Bene- ficence re-appointed and divided into an Eastern and Western section. On motion of Principal McKnight a committee was appointed to consider whether students preparing for foreign mission work might not take medical sub- jects instead of one or more art subjects. On motion, Walter Paul’s testimony to the great assistance rendered to the cause of temperance by the Women’s Christian Temperance Union was recorded. Several resolutions were made on the re- ception of the book of forms, but"the same committee was appointed and the matter sent back to the Presbytery te report on. This afternoon many of the members ac- cepted the invitation of the Admiral to visit the war ships, where they were courteously received. Many members left to-night, and tho Assembly expects to rise to-morrow. Lieut.-Governor Ritchie's reception was attended by many of the Commissioners and their wives to-night. News from Ottawa. Orrawa, June 20. Colonel White, Secretary of the Post Ottice Department, has been promoted to the position of Deputy Postmaster General, vice Griffin, superanuated. The appoint- ment is an extremely popular one. The difficulty regarding the command of the Wimbledon team was finally settled to- day, by the appointment of Col. Bond, of Montreal. The vacancy on the Supreme Court bench, created by Judge Henry’s death, may not be filled for some time. There is now a full quorum of the court. The appoint- ment of the Minister of Justice would be everywhere well received, but he says posi- tively he will not take it. There is a rumor that the present Chief Justice in- tends to ask for his superanuation, to which he is justly entitled, The next Chief Justiceship goes to the Province of Quebec, as Ontario and the Maritime Provinces have each had their representative. Another Poisoning Case. Pirrssure, Pa., June 20. Early this morning Mrs. Josephine Marik, of Alleghany City, administered strychnine to her three children, Mary, Helen and Ellen, ‘aged 7,23 and 4 re- spectively, and then swallowed a large draught of the deadly poison herself. In lessthan 3hours Mary, Helenand the mother were dead. Little Ellen is in the throes of convulsions, with no hope of recovery. The motive for the deed was anger at her hus- band, because he ordered a boarder from the house whom he suspected of criminal intimacy with his wife. The First Train. FRrepeERicToN, June 20. The first train crossed the new railway bridge at noon to-day and a large number | were present to witness the eveut. Rapid | progress is being made with the extension on the city side. It will not be a year till August 15 when Lady Macdonald laid the _corner stone. The bridge consists of nine ‘spans, six being 242 feet two inches each, itwo 166 feet each, and one span 243 feet. That Libel Case. MontrREAL, June 20. In the Court of Appeal to-day, judgment was given in the libel suit of Laflamme vs. Toronto Mail. The court confirmed the ‘verdict of the court below, granting $10,- 000 to the plaintiff, and dismissed the motion for an arrest of judgement and new trial. Judges Church and Baby dissented on the ground that the damages awarded were excessive, but the majority of the court were against them. A Bad Pair. Sr. Tuomas, Ont., June 20. C. H. Whiting, the Michigan ‘‘ Doctor,” charged with criminally assaulting his young niece, in this city, was to-day sen- ‘tenced to twenty three months imprison- ment with fifty lashes. Toronto, June 20. Benj. Graham *(mulatto), received ten lashes at the Central prison this morning, being the first instalment of twenty. He was convicted of criminally assaulting two little girls. Off for Toronto.

The Intercolonial Express Co., which has offices in Charlottetown and Summerside,does a large amount of business and is a very great public convenience. What strikes us as an extraordinary anomaly, however, is that if you wish to send a parcel from Summerside to Charlottetown or vice versa by this Co., it must go via St. John, Truro, Pictou, &c.; or if a resident of Summerside is notified that there is a package“for him at Charlottetown, he must either order it round by way of St. John or go to Charlottetown to sign for and receive it. A few days ago we conversed with a gentleman from Charlottetown who had been obliged to come here to receive a parcel which had arrived for him by express. . The contents were sutliciently valuable, as_ it happened, to make the journey worth the trouble. The foregoing, clipped from to-day’s Summerside Journal, is incorrect. There would not be any advantage in the Inter- colonial Express Company having a_ local branch, as goods would only be shipped by railway as at present done by that depart- ment, therefore ‘* parcels from Summerside to Charlottetown or vice versa” need not go ‘*via St. John, &. ‘It strikes us as an extraordinary anomaly ” that ‘‘a gentleman from Charlettetown” should have his par- cels addressed to Summerside. He must bear his own blunders. Consignees residing along the line of railway have their goods always forwarded to destination and are not *‘ obliged to come here to receive a parcel.” HOTEL ARRIVALS.

She emi grated with her parents from Colonsay, Scot- land, to this Island in the year 1816 and settled in Cove Head. She was of a mild, retiring disposition, a good neighbor and a kind friend. She leaves five daughters and one son, besides grand children and great grand children to mourn their loss. She was for many years a member of the Church of the Rev. Donald McDonald. She passed peacefully to rest, ‘‘So He giveth His be- loved sleep.” Soldier of Christ well done, Praise is thy new employ, And while eternal ages run Rest in thy Saviour’s joy. aS ese een AO Weather Bulletin.
