J. R. McKay, Rev. axp Dear Sizn,—We wait on «ou tonight urged by the promptings of ou own feelings, at the itquest of the Sour = Preebyteriaa Congregation and tie citizens of Souris, to convey to you in a measure the extreme regret we feel at the pros~ pect of your departure from amongst ue Under some circumstances, aud on many occasions addresses and expressions of good will are very formal, and have noth- ing behind them more than being an ac of courtesy which custom demands, bu: On this occazion we beg leave to assure you that our presence here this evenii g and this address means much more, being the genuine and heartfelt expression of a congregation and community, who a; preciate your worth, end who keenly f-e! the loss we sustain. Coming into our midst a stranger, and Puccessor tothe late lamented and ver popular Rev, Mr. Cameron, placed you a such @ Jisadvaniage as made it peculiarly difficult to fill your pre lecessor’s plac e and secure one for yourself in public estima- tion. We feel you have accomplished the former, and exceeded our highest expecta- tions in the latter As @ congregation we feel your ministry has been both edifying and helpful. Your discourses. whether in the pu!pit, at the bedside of the dying, or the weekly pr: per meeting, always contained the true gospel messuve, In bidding you farewell we would not warm place in the affection of onr people. She hus endeareu herself to ihe whole community by her womanly grace, and uniform kindness, It must be very gratifying to you to learn that our fellow Roman Catholic towns-people, as weil as the other Protes« tant denominations join us unanimously in strong expressious of regret at your departure. We request you to accept this purse of gold as a gcod-will offering and a emal!l token of high regard, and sincerely pray that the pure and unalloyed gold of God’s choicest blessing may rest on you and Mrs. McKay. | We trust the Great Head of the Church | may direct you toa portion of His vine | yard, where you may be as much appre- ciated «8 you have been by us. Although parting the hope that we may be occasionally tavored by a Visit | from you belps somewhat to mitigate the sorrow we feel at the prospect of losing vou a3 a pastor and citizen. Arcu.

McKay who occupies a very hearers, often made the preparation of it a pleasant duty. Ycur abounding liberality has also proclaimed to me that my services have been appreciated. Your prompt~ ness in paying my salary and the way you bave responded when any scheme was put before you for support have been worthy of the highest praise. My ministry here has been a short one, but as I look back on it and remember the innumerable kindnesses [ have received at your hands I am overwheimed with gratitude to God who put it into your hearts to to deal with’ me. Never perhaps was a minister privileged to minister to such a forebearing, kind and affectionate people. Sbort as my stay here has been, it has been jong enough I am sure for you to discover most of my shortcomings ; but in my de- parture from youl am consoled by the thought that these, in your kindness of heart, you have overlooked. When | think of all you bave been tome and done for me, of bow o!ten vou have in many reepects exceeded my best expeciae tions of you, bow can I feel other than grateful? Iam leaving here of my own free will, butit is with feelings of re- gret sav farewell. It is hard to part. Ged knows how wuch harder it has been made than I anticipated by the many warm expressions of far too generous ap preciation Of my ministrations. Thank God, I have still the good hope that if I am spared in health aud strength, I may yet be able occasionally (o return to your midet—it may be privileged to occupy the pulpit in which I now stand. Of one thing I am assured, that as long as life is given me “ov thoughis will wander back in happy reminiscence to the place in whichl have spent these five years of service. And the b’eseed confidence is mio# that memory, oa the part of many of you, will noi play me falee, vut that if we are spared I ehall continue to occupy a4 little corner in the generous affectionate hosts of eincere and attached friends in Souris from whom I shall be assured ot as warmagrasp ofthe hand when at any time I may return, as I now receive at parting. Before I sit down I may say that I appreciate very much the reference in your address to herwhom I brought here three yeare ago to share wy joyt and my sorrowe. Your kindness to her, you may believe wakes for her the thought of parting very painful indeed. I am giad too that your address alludes to my sanding with the brethren of other dencminationa here. My relations with them have always been friendly, and te ‘bem, and eepecially tomy Roman Catho ic friends and neighbors who have, meny of them unsolicited, belped to fill thia puree, and who I am sure would zladly rice in the dead of the night to do me a favor, I return my beartfelt thanks.

But the display of beef in the butchers’ stalls was equal in point of qual- ity aswell as in qnantiiy to that of former vears. The Messrs Blake had on sale six carcasses of choice beef. They aleo made a splendid showinz of other meats as well. In the display of beef we noticed the carcasses of two steers anda heifer which dressed over 800 pounds each. These cattle, which were fed by Mr. Mc- Kinley, of North River, averaged a year and ten months each, aad the beef is e¢on- sidered to be the best for that age ever seen in Charlottetown. They also exhibiedan- other cb ice carcass of beef, a steer fed by Mr. Toombs, of North Rustico, which | kewise dressed over 800. The stall.of Saunders & Newsom, in the eastern end of the market building, was decorated with patriotic flags, etc., and contained six carcasses of steer aod heifer beef of prime quality. The total weight of the beef was 4,791 pounds. There were also two carcasses of mutton fed by Andrew Wells, of Alberton, which tipped the ecales at 229 pounds, besides eceveral car- casses of springjamb, with hams and bacon in profusion. Meserse.
