In this connection might algo be men- tioned the great advantage oifered by this institution to those who wish to prepare themselves for the examinations for the civil service of Canada. In this “ Canada of Ours,’ with its steady development and pregress, great resources and many industries, it is meet necessary that you | should be well equipped to take an active | part in its busy life. Cxunaiw is yet buta | young country, as a glance at ite history will prove. In 1774 its population was but 90,000; in 1806 it was 430,000; in 1840, 1,534,000; and at Confederation (1867) it had reached 3,500,000. At the declaration of independence, the popula- | tiou of the United States was forty times | larger than that of Canada; it is now only twelve and a half times as large. The ine crease of population has been. in the case of the United States, nineteenfold, and in ithe case of Canada fifty-fiivefold. The railway syetem of Canada, which was only 2,067 miles in 1867, rose to 12,163 miles in 1888, and 15,020 miles in 1893. The total importe into Canada have risen | from $73,459,644 in 1868, to $129,074,268 in 1893; the exports from $57,567,888 ‘to the aggregate trade | from $131,027,532 to $247,63%,620. The volume of trade in 1893 was considerably in excess of that of any year since confed- eration. Those of you who have read the newspapers of the part year or two, will no | doubt remember the great financial em- barrassments which have occurred in the | great republic to the south of us, where,in the year 1893, over two hundred national banks closed their doors, or, including state and private banks, savings banks and | loan societies, over six hundred financial | institutions succumbed. CLarly in the | past year the well knowa American econ- lomist, Mr. D. A. Wells, wrote in the Forum : “Tn the Dominion of Canada, separated \ territoriaily from us on the north by ani | imaginary line, there has been no panic, | nv unusual demand for money, no stop- page of industries, no restriction of trade, | no increased rates of. interest—in short, | nothing beyond the ordinary course of | events, except so far av these events may have been influenced by contiguity to what may be termed a financial cyclone, whose pathway of destruction was contiguous to but not within Canadian territery.” I have presented to you these few figures to show you what an amount of careful banking management, book-keeping, etc., was necessary to bring about euch good results, as well as to bring to your notice the solidity of our banks and banking sys- | cond, and to present to your minds jan idea of the greatness of your |eountry. There pever was a time in the J history of Canada when she wanted able, energetic, experienced and Joyal hearted nven more than at present: You are now or will shortly be, stepping out on the great platform of her busy life, and I hope that you will make euch use of your time here as will enable you to confer honor and dignity on yourselves and credit on your alma mater. Within the past few weeks you have read of the fdneral of the late Right Hon- brablé Sit. Jehu Thompson, and also of the great kindness bestowed on him and his family by our royal mother Queen Vie- toria. He wasone of the noblest sons of Canala. He has left behind him a char- | acter a study of which will reveal to you the vision of a great and good man who gave to his Queen and country | his talents and the best years of his life. His opportunities were no better than yours. He has opened the way to the high- | e=k positiQadb the gift ofthe Crown, waich | like him you may attain by assiduity, | perseverance and industry. There is room | enough in this great Dominion for all those who will make a, proper use of their oppor- tavities ahd abilities; your opportunities \ are great, dnd I-am sure you will fully | value themi, so that you may become wor- | thy soas snd daughtersof your beautiful Island ‘hiotne. * — + < -eee—— Try Moore & McLeod for bargains in men’s winter underwear to-night. ae FANCY RIBBONS..

The ball was com- pletely filled with a most attentive audi- ence, The programme consisted of dialogues, duets, choruses, and recitations. spectacular dialogue entitled “The Genius of Christianity,” by seven members of the Young Girls’ Mission Band showed evidence of dramatic power, and the costumes were very arti-tically arranged. But the charm of the evening consisted in the pure sweet voices of the little ones as they blended in song and chorus. When all did so well, it would be invidious to particularize, but we cannot help referring to a duet by the two little daughters of Mr. John Saunders. The lisping attempts of the little ones to pronounce some of the words added to the charm of their sweet voices, and they ha to respond to a well merited encore. St. Jaines’ choir rendered a fine chorus, and Miss Blanche McDougall gave a piano solo with her usual brilliant execution. Too much eredit cannot be given to Miss Brown, fur the eareful training ef her Mis- sion Band, which resulted in a really first- rate performance, without a hitch of any kind, Wetrust that we shall have the pleasure of listening to another children’s concert in St. James’ Hall before the close of the season, LETTERS 10 THE EDITOR. OPINION or A SON HEATHER, OF THE Srr,—One “Don Quixote” has made a bad mistake about kerosene oi]. I made up what I paid last year for kerosene. oil, duty and_all, and find that it was not half what the income taxcame to. Why didn’t you make fun of that whopper* about a man not coming here to live because of the oil duties. I always think that you treat the featherhead of the Guardian too seriously. You should remeber the in: junction of Scripture to “answer a_ fool according to his folly.” Yours, Scorry. ——=>> 6 << LITTLE TO CHOOSE, Siz,—The Guardian tells an untruth when he says that Canadian oil is “crude and filthy.” [have used both kinds in my house and find one about as good as the other.

Howsekerrer, SOURIS NOTES, We are pleased to learn that the compli mentary banquet to be tendered to the Dominion representatives, Messrs. -Mac- donald and Maclean, wil! be.well attended, as the secretary informs us that over fifty tickets have already been called for. The speeches of the evening will no doubt be of the highest order, as we are informed that Senator Ferguson (our lately-appointed Cabinet Minister), Senator Macdonald, tichard Hunt, Esq., and C. Shaw, M.P-P., have secured tickets. These, with the guests of the evening, who are both able and pleasing speakers, will make the banquet something long to be remen- bered. We trust that Senator Ferguson will. be able to give us a promise ef his support in the Cabinet for the building of a branch line of railroad from Harmony Sfation to North Lake, a distance of about twelve miles.
