Mr. Strong replied that the rea- son the road was not opened, was that the people could not agree among them- | selves respecting the location of the road. The Judges had decided that new roads } must be run off, and surveyed before a | commission could sit upon them. Hon. Mr. Munn said he understood | that a commission had already sat upon | the road. | WHARFS. Hon. Mr. Laird asked the Leader of the Government if he would lay upon the | table a statement showing the number of wharfs and bridges let by public contract of each } for the past year, the amount contract.the number for which wharfingers had been appointed, together with a list - of those who had furnished quarterly re~ turns, and the amount of each, respect- ively.

A Bill to consolidate and amend thi | laws relating to the Methodist Church of | Canada was read the second time, and on | moving that it be referred to committee, | Hon. Mr. Strong said, that in 1874 a union took place of several branches of the Methodist Body, including the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Eastern British America, under one General Conference, which were to meet once in four years. Thus there were six Anaual Conferences. One for Newfoundland; one for Nova | Scotia; and oue for New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island ; and three in the Upper Provinces. The annual confer- ences were composed entirely of clergy- men, and the general conference was com- posed equally of clergymen and laymen. ‘The union had of course affected the law | by which church property was held, and } necessitated the passing of a law to meet the case. The name by which the Church would be known would be the Methodist | Church of Canada, the term Wesleyan | having been dropped. ‘The bill referred to the appointment of trustees, and the amount of property they would be allow- ed to hold, which was not to exceed $100- 000. It was intended that there should be uniformity in this respect in all parts of the Dominion, and a similar bill was intended to be passed in all the Provinces. Iien. Mr. Laird did not intend to oppose the principle of the Bill, but he oveerved that the Church property was to be held by the Geseral Conterence, which was to have its head quarters in some pert of the Dominion. He was of opision that it was a wrong principle. i them and they to the Conference, lla Church building | | diction over property held here. | cipline. | ales presented by Hon.

There six or eight branches of the Methodist body which had broken off | from the parent Church on matters of dis- Some of them had come back, and others desired to do so, but objected to the name Wesleyan. In the time ot Wesley, his followers were called Method ists, by way of derision, and in after years, to make them more respectable in the eyes of the world, the name Wesleyan was given them, but not by the desire of Wesley. The Bill had beea drawn up by Judge Wilmet and an eminent lawyer of Halifax. It conferred no new powers upon the Conference,neither did it change any doctrines of the Church; but the | union had unsettled the laws by which the | Chureh property in the several Provinces , 7 Diil, The Bill was passed without amend- ment. was held, and hence the neeessity for this o— PARTNERSHIPS, Qn motion of Hon.

Hon. Mr. Strong approved of the pro- posed amendment. ‘The priuciple was acted upon with regard -to Bills of sale. It would be more convenient and there would be no additional expense. The amendment was agreed to, as was form of certificate proposed by Hon. Mr. Laird. The Bill was reported agreed to with amendment, aud was read the third time and passed.

A petition of divers inhabitants of Crapaud and vicinity praying for an amendment of the County Courts Act, was presented by Hon. Mr. McEwen and laid on the table. Adjourned till Monday next. APRIL, 10th. INSOLVENT DEBTORS’ COURT. A Bill to amend the Insolvent Debtors’ Act was read the second time, and on moving that it be referred to committee, Hon. Mr, Strong said the Bill would render action more simple and less ex- pensive than under the present law. Under the law commissioners were ap- pointed to hear persons who made appli- cation to be discharged from jail by reason of inability to pay their debts, and by the Bill, the Judges, of the County courts for the Prince and King’s Counties were authorized to hear those applicants. If it should be found that a person had given up his property, and had acted hovestly, the Judge was authorised to discharged him. He considered it a movement in the right direction. Jaiis were for the lawless and disobedient, but for a man who was unable to pay his debt to be kept in confinement was, to say the least unmerciful. The Bill was referred to Committee, Hon. Mr. Reid in the chair. Hon. Mr. Laird asked if there was any- thing in the Bill to require a judge of the County Courts to reside in the County for which he was judge. He had not had an opportunity of reading the Bill, but be could understand that if a judge of one of the distant Counties were to reside in Charlottetown, there might be great delay and inconvenience. Hon. Mr, Strong replied that it would Church property should be held by the different congregations for whose use it was intended. They could learn from history that there had been troubles in some partsof the Church. At the time of the disruption in Scotland, the Church property was held by the mojority, and in | some cases Churches were left without a single worshipper. that wnder the operation of the Bill a large minority might be deprived of the use of their Churches, burying grounds, etc, honored name of Wesleyan was to be dropped.

Little Mary was prettily dressed, and standing in the front of waiting for her mother to go out to ride. A tidy boy, dressed in coarse clothes was passing when ‘Come here, boy, and I dota boy dus’ like you, named Joey.’ The boy Jaughed, shook hands with her, and said: ‘ l’ve gota little girl just like you, only she hasn’t any little cloak with pussy fur on it.’ Here a lady came out of the door and said : ‘Mary you must not talk with bad boys on the street. I hope you haven't taken any- the horse the little girl said: s’ake hands wi’ me. thing from her? Go right along and never stop here again boy.’ That evening the lady was called down to speak with a boy in the hall. He was neat~ ly dressed and stood with his cap in bis hand. It was the enemy of the morning. ‘I came to tell you that I am not a bad boy,’ he said. ‘I go to Sunday schoo! and help my mother all Ican. 1 never teil lies, nor quarrel, nor say bad words: and I don’t like a lady to call me names and ask me if I’ve stolen her little girl’s clothes off her!’ ‘I’m very glad you’re so good,’ said the lady, ng at the boy’s earnestness. ‘7% .'s ght lau ‘ Here’s a quarter of a a dollar for you.’ don’t want that.’ said Ben, holding his head | up very high. ‘ My father works in a foundry, You've gota boy bigger than I, haven’t you? <‘ Yes; ‘ Does he know the Commandments ?” and he bas lots of money. why?' he the sermon on the mount, and the twenty-third | psalm and the golden rule?’ I’m very much afraid he cannot,’ said the lady, laughing at} afraid not very well.” ‘ Can say Doesn't he ride en his} pony on Sunday,instead of going to Church ?’ ‘lm afraid he does, but he ought not,’ said the lady, blushing a the boy's bravery.’ ittla aiteic. ‘Mother don’t know I little rogue, ‘but I thought I would just come round and see what kind of folks you were; ratber am here,’ said the and—and—I guess mother would your boy wouldn’t come round our doors, be- Hittie Susan to talk io Good evening.’ And cause she don’t want bad beys in the street. the boy was gone. ~e¢— wesw o —--— POKER AND POLITICS.

It shows that it does not answer to turn your back upon an enemy unless you intend to run away. ‘I had heard somebody say that any per- son throwing the skirts of his coat over his head, stooping low, holding out his arms, and creeping along backwards, might fright- en the fiercest dog and put him to flight, I accordingly made an attempt upon a miller’s dog in the neighborhood; who would never let the boys rob the orchard.
