A serious scarcity of labor is complained of, and prices have advanced nearly 100 per cent. Deputy Consul Wood at Batavia reports great damage has been done to.the sugar crops there by a new dis- easé known as ‘“‘sereh,” which affects the cane in the form of blight. It spreads rapidly and reduces the quantity as well as injures the cane. The planters at that place have subscribed liberally to secure European specialists to investigate the cause of the disease and report the best method possible to counteract it. DIED.

Tue Event or tae Season.—The Convent Bazaar and Strawberry Festival, to be held in the Market Hail on the 3rd and 4th July next, will, without doubt, be the most sue- cessful affair of the kind ever held in this | Province.

Make a note of ‘the dates: July 3rd and 4th, - --— Deavty Lemonade. -A farmers’ picnic at Woodstock, Oat., a few days ago, came nearly having a disastrous wind-up. Just as the eople were about to start for home a number | began to complain of symptoms that were un- doubtedly those of poisoning. A doctor who was present administered emetics, and this hrought a certain amount of relief. Probably forty persons were thus affected. The dis- turbing element was traced to the lemonade, and from what has since transpired it appears that in some way a quantity of tartar emetic had been introduced into the vessel contain- ing it. Some of the victims are reported in a low condition, but it is hoped there will be no fatal results. A great many suffered intense agony before relief came. wail is Crops IN Ownrarto.—Recent reports from several parts of Ontario show that the damage done by the recent rains is neither as extensive or 43 serious as at first feared. Tn high lands there is good prospect of a fuil yield of wheat. In low lands much damage has been done, reducing the pro- bable yield in some places by fifty to twenty-five per cent. and in others only re- tarding the growth. Root crops have suf- fered most, particularly potatoes, which in places are a total failure. Much depends upon the next few days. A continued wet season will increase the percentage of loss enormously, while fair weather between now and harvest would retrieve much of the damage done and ensure at least a fair general yield. regular session on Monday evening next, for | Oddtellows’ Hall is about finished, and it is: _ VOL. 25.-NO. 3f% PHILHARMONIC. —A meeting of the Phil- harmonic Society, for practice, will be held this evening at 8 o'clock. oebqitiiieaea _ Mura Dispray.—The volunteers now in camp at Brighton, will parade on Monday next at 12 o'clock. <A salute will be fired from Fort Edward.

She sailed again this morning, shortly after eight o'clock, with a cargo of lobsters, starch, potatues, etc. She had no passengers either way. Sacedia Time witt Tett.—A Michigan girl who wanted a melodeon acquired the necessary sum by raising 350 bushels of onions. Oniy time will tell whether the pealing of the meiodeon will extract more tears than the peeling of the equivalent of onions. esis Wuat tut Woman Dip.—aA letter pro- posing marriage to a Castile, N. Y., girl remained in the coat-tail pocket of the proposer for eight months, he supposing it to have been mailed. When he finally did mail it she was married, but she gave her husband the shake and eloped to Con- necticut. sii Tue Cusromer Winkep.—A Baltimore lawyer has laid before the State Depart- ment the case of a citizen of Hayti who recently entered a drugstore in Baltimore, asked for a glass of soda water, and was refused by the clerk. The druggist’s lawyer is preparing an elaborate reply, in which he contends that the Haytian wink- ed, and that the druggist had none of that kind of soda water in stock. Aw ExeLanation.—In reference to a para- graph in yesterday's Sun, it is explained that regarding the item of $173 in the conference contingent fund report, claimed on account of special personal affliction, which was under discussion, and which] was referred back to the committee, the expression ‘‘ plead for money to soothe their lacerated feelings,” used by one of the speakers, was not intended as a reflection upon either of the gentlemen whose claims are represented in the amount stated, but had reference to a past event in conference history.—St. John Sun, ee Mr. W.

Emmerson, chairman of band competition committee, 10 Smith street, Halifax. Each band competing will be expected to take part in the carnival procession. CuarLes Warrs.—This able speaker lec- tured at St.John, N. B., on Thursday evening last. The Telegraph ends a notice of the discourse thus : Mr. Watts’ conclu- sion was that science had triumphed over theology as an agent in civilization. Science was the white-robed messenger of love; theology, the dark-robed demon of fear. Science was the day, full of health and joy; theology, the night wrapped in darkness and gloom. Science was a mantle adorning the living present; theology, a shroud covering the dead past. Science was the saviour of man; theology, the wea- pon of the priests. Science was the hand- maid of progress; theology, the knell of stagnation. Let us then, he said, guard its potency, appreciate its grandeur and amal- gan.ate with science al] the practical truths of all the religions in the world, and thus become free from the trammels of creeds and dogmas. His motto was : ** Bound to no party; to no creed confined, The world’s our home, our brothers all man. kind, Do good, love truth, be just and fair with all Exalt the right, though every ism fall. At the close of his discourse, an oppor tunity was given for discussion, but no one rose to speak, and the audience rapidly dis persed, —— ar mmm ea
