A very enjoyable event took plage on Tuesday evening at the residence of Aifred Schurman, Esq , of Bedeque. Mr Schur- man’s daughter, M. Alfreda, was united in marriage to Mr. Neil Cameron, of Albany The yeung couple were attended by Miss Alice S., sister of the bride, and Muss Flora Ano, sister of the groom, and Mr. Charles Schurman and Mr. John William Csmeron, brothers ef the bride and groom. After the ceremony, which was perfurm-d by the Rev. Joseph A. Cahill, the party, with a namber of friends, sat down to a most inviting repast. The presents were handsome. We sympathize with Mr. and Mrs Schurman in their loss of a dutiful daughter, but congratulate Mr. Cameron up?n securing for a life partner such an estimable yuung lady, and wish Mr. and Mrs. Cameron the fullest measure of hap- piness and prosperity.

The following resolution was moved by Michsel D.

Therefore Resolved, That it ie the desire of this meeting that the representatives of this County in the House of Commons lay this important matter before the Department of Public Works at Ottawa, in order that such action may be taken by the Federal Govein- ment as wil! render secure to navigation the harbor at Grand River Cyrus Shaw, M-P.P., James E Mc- Donald, M.P.P., John G.

Sin, —Wheu the honorable leader of the government was elected to represent the south side of the Hillsborough, he was elected to look after the interests of the people. We would like to aek why he is not looking after the bushing of the ice. We have had good ice for ths past ten days and still there are no signs of it being bushed to guide the traveling public. In the snow storm of last Saturday week there was a man with horse and sleigh Jost, and was wandering about for two hours, having lost sight of the track. If that man in his wanderings had got inte a epring hole and been drowned the government would cer- tainly be responsible for that man’s life, Good judges have pronounced tho ice safe, and the number of horses and loads— some of them over a ton in weight—com ng and going continually prove it to be se. Such carelessness on the part of the government cannot be overlooked, but still we cannot expect much better from Grit rule. Sourn Siper Ashamed of the Railing.

I suppose “they did it be- tween them” ‘*Naufrage’’ ssserta that “the C. P W. isa gentieman!” After that statement ‘'Naufrage” would stop at nothing, and deserves no credence watever.
