— | oe NN IRE es ee Lord Dunraven on Canada. Lord Dunraven thinks Canada has a glorious future. In a recent article he says :— ‘‘Even from the point of view of a travel- ler who cares not for field sports, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and in fact all Canada is a country full of interest. It is interesting for many reasens which I have not space to enter into now, but especially so as showing the development of what in the future will be a great nation. For whether in connection with this country, or as independent, or as joined to the United States, or any portion of them, that vast region whichis now called British North America will assuredly seme day support the strongest, most powerful, and most masterful population on the continent of America,” ee Blessing the Bells. The ceremony of blessing the bells at St. Mary’s Cathedral, of Halifax, took place on Sunday last. A dispatch says: Seven of the smaller bells were consecrated at 3 o'clock, and the large one weighing 16,000 lbs., at 7 p.m. The cathedral was thronged with people of all religious denominatious. The choir under the direction of Prof. Hagarty, sang several sacred selections, immediately after which His Lordship Bishop Haley, of Portland, Me., preached an eloquent and appropriate sermon. His Grace Archbishop Hannan, assisted by Revs. Power and Carmody, then proceeded to bless the bless the large bell which oc- cupied a position in the nave near the high altar and was suspended from a huge frame handsomely festooned. ‘The bell received the name ‘St. Mary.” During the anoiat- ment of various parts, the clergy chanted the psalms from David, the choir assisting. _— ~~). - Magdalene islands.
