The following address was presented to Judge Kelly on his first appearance in the capacity as Judge, on Tuesday last. To Tomas Ketty, Ese., Judge of the County Court for Prince County. Dear Sir :—We, the undersigned resi- dents of the Fifth Cireuit of Prince County, cannot permit your appointment as Judge of our County Court to pass without giving expression to the feelings of satisfaction with which we have learned of your eleva- tion to so distinguished a position. The many intimate and agreeable asso- ciations which we have had with you both as a citizen, a neighbor, and as our repre- sentative in the Legislature, have ever call- ed for our cordial esteem, and the remem brance of the manner in which you have discharged the duties of the various posi- tions which you have been called upon to fill in the past, adds to our cenviction that you will fulfil with honor the high and im- portant duties of your commission. We beg to acknowledge the earnestness which you have ever manifested in the ad- vancement of our interest, both as our re- presentative in Parliament and as a pri- vate citizen. We also cannot refrain from expressing our approval of the action of the Govern- ment in appointing as Judge, a resident of this District, one whose interests are in ac- cord with our own. Permit us in conclusion,'to express our heartfelt wishes for your future welfare, and be pleased to convey to Mrs. Kelly the expression of our sincere respect. We have the honor to be your obedient servants, H. C. Green, Wm. G. Strong, Sinclair, Minto and Stewart, Francis Renouf, Angus McMillan, Wright Bros., Henry F. Jarvis, M.

The favorable but too complimentary terms in which re- ference is made to my past career as a private citizen and otherwise, afford me much gratification, now that lam entering upon a new and responsible sphere of duty, To be assured, as I am by this address, that while filling some public positions my conduct hasnot been undeserving of your ap- proval, is, indeed, very satisfactory; and the value of this approbation becomes en- hanced when pronounced, as in the present instance, by those in whose midst [ have lived and worked during the last. fifteen years. ‘To the liberal-minded and _intelli- gent inhabitants of this Town and Town- ship I am in an especial manner indebted for whatever portion of gvod fortune may have attended my residence here. On retiring from the active duties of professional and politieal life, and assum- ing the graver responsibilities of the ju- dicial office, I feel flattered by your con- gratulations on my promotion, and en- couraged by your predictions for my future success. ; Aside from all personal considerations, I freely endorse your opinion as to the pro- priety and justice of the policy which re- commended a selection from the resid- ent Barristers of Prince County, to fill the vacancy created by the decease of my lamented predecessor. And here, consider- ing the place and the occasion, it may not be inopportune for me to remark that the late Judge Pope, by his cultured mind, his accurate knowledge of human character, and his painstaking labors while investi- gating the difficulties between suitors, at- tained a high reputation as an able and im- partial Magistrate, and such as any man placed ina similar position might honor- ably emulate. Conscious of many deficiencies, but in- spired by worthy examplesfand your good wishes, my constant endeavor will be to discharge the new obligation to which I am called, with diligence, zeal and fidelity. Please accept my thanks for all the senti- ments contained in your address, and for your kind remembrance of Mrs. Kelly, and believe me to be, Gentleman, Yours very respectfully, THomas Ke.ty. Summerside, P. E. L., 24th November, 1879. <> >> 2. +o Fred. W. Strong & Co Angus MeSween, Hodgson & McLeod, New Losster Facrory.—James Clow, Esq., and Hon. 8. Prowse, are building a new lobster factory a short distance from Murray Harbor North, where they intend to carry on the preserving business on an extensive scale next summer. The main building is 160 feet in length, and a wing adjoining it is also on a large scale. Messrs Clow & Prowse are two of our most success- |to met with success.—K. C, Advertiser. DAY, NOVEMBER 28 1879. | 8, NO. 7, NEWS BY TELEGRAPH, UNITED STATES. New York, Nov. 26. Brooklyn’s city debt is over 40 million dollars, of which 34 millions are due to the city for arrears of taxes. Prospect Park cost $10,000,000, the waterworks $11,000,- 000, and the bridge $8,000,000. Wasuineton, Nov. 26. The United States Legation at Paris re- ports there is no Mormonism in France. Parties inculcating polygamy are liable to banishment; there is no redudancy of population in France, and hence little or no emigration. New York, Nov. 26. Early this morning a fire breke out in the the car stables of the 8th Avenue Horse Railroad Company on the West side of 8th Avenue. All the horses and cars, with the exception of those on the read, were in the building. The horses were in stalls on the second floor, and in less than 20 minutes, many of them, with a number of cars were recued. During the progress of the con- flagration, loud reports were caused by fall- ing walls. The origin of the fire is not known. The loss was very heavy, and 100 horses perished in the flames. The piteous whining of. the agonized animals could be heard above the roar of fire. The firemen made a determined effort to reach them after the empleyees had abandoned the work, but were driven baek. The building contained 12,000 bales of hay, 2,000 sets of harness, enormous quantities of blankets and whips, 2,000 bushels of oats and 1,500 bushels of ground feed. The total loss is said to be $150,000. The foreman, John Welch, and fireman, Henry C. Mount and John Regan, of the same company, were all buried under the smoking mass. Their fellow-workers dug them out quickly, all badly injured. Mount is dead. New Yorx, Nov. 26. Albert Lavergne, aged 30, called upon the police last night and stated that in 1876 he was in the jewellery business with his brother in Paris. He was given $30,000 worth of diamonds to sell to a party, but sailed for this country under the name of Abraham Levy and sold the property in New York and went to the Black Hills and squandered the money. Finding himself penniless, he decided to give himself up. The French Consul will dispose of the matter. Cotumsus, O., Nev. 26. David Vansickle, a farmer living in Dela- ware County, gave a tramp work and shel- ter yesterday. After the family had gone to bed the stranger began to ransack the house. Vansickle interfered, when the tramp, with a butcher’s knife, cut him severely, and also attacked Mrs. Vansicle. The citizens are searching for the tramp. New Yorg, Nov. 26. Floyd F. Curtiss, aged 31, found drowned in the North River yesterday, was the youngest son of a wealthy retired merchant in this city$ He had graduated with the highest honors at college, but had become dissipated, and itis supposed while intoxi- he walked into the river. IRELAND. Srico, Nov. 26. Last evening the police patrol wero stoned and four arrests made later in the evening. Davitt was serenaded by two bands. The police paraded the streets this morn- ing and further reinforcements have ar- rived. No fresh disturbances occurred, It is thought that the Government in- tend to remove the trial of the prisoners to Dublin instead of having it at the County asaizes. A larger number of magistrates are on the bench to-day than hitherto. Mr. Killen’s examination is proceeding. Davitt and Daly are present as spectators. PEDESTRIANISM. Lonvon, Nov. 26. The Sporting Life says : ‘Rowell has de- cided to enter for a week’s walking match for the long distance championship and Astley belt, to take place in England. The backer of Pauchot writes that he with- draws his man if the next match does not take place in America. _O’Leary also wishes to withdraw from the match.” GERMANY. Vienna, Nov. 26. The visit of the King of Denmark to Berlin may pave the way toward an under- standing on the Schleswig question. SPAIN. Mavrip, Nov. 26.
