Ow the 7th March, 1879, the Davies’ Ad- ministration fell—not gloriously. Their hasty measures, reckless administration, and imprudent acts, as representatives, ministers, and men, had roused the electo- rate of the Province from end toend ; and, after a shert but severe struggle in the Legislature, at the beginning of their third session, they were defeated. They thereupon resigned, leaving the country ia an uproar, and bequeathing as a legacy to i) their successura a deficit over 200,000. When the Hon. Mr. colleagues tuok office, we ventured the pre- amounting to Sullivan and his dictiva that they would, to the best of their ability, carry ont the welPunderstood wishes of the peovie, and maintain a policy The con- this, tho at once prudent and econemical. dition of the Proviice on opening day of the fourth and last session of the General Assembly in which they have guided the Legislation of the Prov- Peace and prevail.

It was attend- ed by an unusually large number of specta- tors, who manifested a lively interest in the sport until the close. The contestants were Williston Brown, Wiliam Weeks, B. DesBrisay, H. Clements, J. Allan and F. Rattary. ‘The start was made at eighteen minuies past eight o'clock. in splendid form, Brown and Weeks lead ing, and DesBrisay following closely, with the others trailing together in the rear. From the start, the race for first prize, was evidently between Brown and Weeks, but the former, as the end drew near, proved to be much more than a maich for his opponent. He sailed to the front, like a bird on the wing, lapping his rivals ap parently at his ease and as he pleased. When the score of the first hour was taken he had six laps to the good. The score then stcod: Brown, 236; Weeks, 280; DesBrisay, 275 ; Clements, 270 ; Galbraith, 250; Allan, 255; Rattary on completing his 221st lap retired. The skating for the next half hour was remarkabiy fast. Brown spurted lively, and at the close had «igh @ n laps to bis credito er Weeks, while We ks who ekated well throvghout the race sc red twelve laps more than DesBri-av. The other skaers were far behind at the finish. They bad no chance for any other than the fourth jriz , and Clement>, the most persictent of the last two, won aa the close. The score stood: Prown, 424; Wecks, 496; DesBri-ay, 394; Clemen: 383; Galwath, 349; Allan, 334. The prizes were distributed to the suc» ssful Coupetitors in the waiting room. Brown reserved a valuable gold seal, Weeks a ha idsome meerschaum pipe, Des Brisay a silver mug, and Clements a riding whip. eee Mr, T.
