That something must be done. (2) That it will, on the whole, be more economical to i and weil-furnished Hospital than te build and maintain two. (3.) That the Dominion is bound te pro- vide for the care and treatment of sick mariners; and, so that this be ac complished, it matters not to the Government whether the money necessarily expended by them be expended in ennnec tion with what is known as a Marine Hospital or in connection with Hospital. 4. That if we come down handsomely and build a good Hogpital, the Dominion Government might easily be induced to have their sick mariners treated in it, and | so aid in its maimtenance. 5. That if this course be adopted, there would be no danger of a recurrence of painful incidents such as that in which the Cuban sailor was the sufferer ; for should a sailor, applying for admission, not have about him the certificate required by the Government, he could at once be taken in and <ared for until his identity could be estabiished. These, we tink, good reasons why the plan should be adopted ; but if the gentle- man who thinks them ‘‘ mischevous and nonsensical” come ferward with better, we shall be pleased. ‘*,Good reasons must give way to better.” There is, we admit, one great difficulty | in the way— hardness of heart or mere indifference en the part of members of this community. to think that a people who are, asa whole, devoted to money getting and selfish luxury | and pleasure, could be induced to ‘‘ come down handsomely” in aid of a public Hospital. Should this difficulty prove insuperable, the Deminicn Gfverument will, of course, | have to proceed with the buil ling of an Hospital for its sick mariners; and the chance for combined effort in the estab lishment and maintenance of a Genera! | Hospital, such as we require, will be Jost. But itis not unlikely that the reeent experiences we have had of the folly of | heaping up riches and living for ourselves, while the poor and the sick suffer neglect, | will havea tendency to make our people take immediate action with respect to this important matter, and ‘‘come down hand- | sumely. May it not be true that our trou bles are in part, at least, due to the fact that we have, in our eagerness to get big dividends and live in ease, provided, with niggardish gonerosity for the poor and the sick. _ * <> eae Homeward Bound.

The firat proposition was made by the Rev. D. G. MeDonald, ‘“ that im- | mersien in water is the only act that Jesus | Christ commanded to perform as Christian Baptism.” This Dr. Murray disputes, and aflirms that ‘‘not only adult believers, but also infants of helieving parents, being mem- bers of the Church, are scriptural subjects for Christian Baptism.” 'n the opening of & proposition, each |speaker is allowed one honr, and after- To have done this | Garfield was a plain, modest, unassuming | man.

Mr., Eprror,—East Point always noted for its hospitality, and more lately for its donation visits, fully sustained its reputa- tion on the evening of the 8th inst., when a number of the friends assembled at the Baptist Parsonage, supplementing their presence with the useful, the valuable, and the palatable, for the benefit of the Pastor and his family. After spending a pleasant and agraeble evening, and doing full justice to the eatables thoughtfully provided by the ladies of the party, the company dis persed at a seasonable hour, leaving Mr. Kinley the richer by sonie fifty-six dollars. Though only three months in the com- munity, the large rep-esentation that night, and the liberality for . erly dis; layed, demonstrate that in the :{fections of the people, be worthily fills the place of his gifted predecessor.
