(t was te be expected that during the course of his long career he should make serie cnemies. He was not infallible. Few will wish to sey that he alone of all men never com- mitted a mistake. Bat wharever differ- ence efopinien exists in regard to his policy as a ststesinan—and in this particu- lar his political opponents must be credited with the same integrity of purpose which his friends would demand for him—no one will deny that so far from using his high place as a vantage ground for his own em- clument, he threw every energy of heart and mind into the service of his beloved country, and endeavored to the best of his judgment to consult for his country’s good. (isfted by mature with « wonderful power of personal magnetism, a keen knowledge of wen, a fertility of varied resources, a arm geasp of pnb'ic issues, and the coim- manding intellect of genius, this country hes never possessed a man who stamped lis individuallty more strongly upon it or held « higher place in the affections of all clastea atuong ite people.

In thie crisis of public affsirs there is a loud eall to Christian patriotism, and I have faith enough to prophecy that the call will not be heard in vain. Never before hos there been greater need of putting aside all selfish ambition, all political and re- hgious prejudice and joining hearts and hands together for the sake of the common weal.

The bedy of the deceased statesman, at- tired in the uniform of an lmperial Privy Councillor, with the Order of the Bath upon his breast. was on Suaday f.renoen p'vced in an elaborate casket, the exact counterpart of that in which the remains of President CGantichl were borne to rhe grave. It is very handscme, made of rolled steel, with rosewood finish and oxidized silver handles extending the whole length, while the lifting-plates are fastened down with knobs of the same material. The lifts are emb'ematical, being in the shape of awheel with a pair of seraph’s wirigs folded. Heavy drapings of purple and white cover the sides of the casket, which is understood to be completely surrounded by potted plants heavy with fragrant flowers. Numbers of handsome wreaths and crosses sent by lamenting fhienda, among them one in the form ofa St. And- rew's Cross crdered by the Marquis of Lorne and the Princess Louise, also fill the air with their perfume.

It is not expected that Sir John's will will be opened until after the burial. It was drawn up some years ago by Hon.

Centrevi'ls Hall was filled last evening with representative farmers t» hear Prof, Robertson tecture on Dairying. Mr. Dugald S. Wright was appointed chairnian, and introduced Prof. Robertson in «a few well-chosen words. Prof. Robertson was gratified to hear that the Island had in contemplation the establishment of a dairy- men’s association. tHe thought it would be productive vf much good. He regrettcd that Professor Shuttleworth had decided to leave the laland. He then said that the principal theme would be the subject «f “Bodder Corn as an adjunct to the business of dairying,” He p>inted out that dairying had made great strides in Ontario, and the Dairymen’s Association of that province had done much to bring about this — result. The Island was ad- mirably adapted for growing forage crops, and for the production of the best catrle, especially the dairy and beef breeds. There is no part #f Canada better adapted for dairying than this Province. He said we undoubtedly had a long season when catile had to be fed inside. The main thing then for the Island farmers to do was to provide cheap feed for their cattle during the long winter season. He explained the working of the Experimental Farm at Ottawa, but especiallythe growing of fodder corn. The had there several breeds of cattle. Their business, however, was net to dee cide for the farmers which was the best. Every breed is good in its own particular way. Let every man pick out one of these breeds and use them well, and he will get good satisfaction. Their busi- ness is to find out the best way to feed these animals to bring about the best re- sults, He then gave the result of a test of feeding at the farm. They fouod that steers, fed on corn, ensilage and meal were the best, pronounced so by the butchers, a'though they were no heavier than the ote # which ve e fed with hay, o:t: and roots. The costo’ the steers which were fed on cura and esicilage was hine and a half cents per day, while the others cost double that much, eighteen find three- q tarter cents perca’. He adv feeders ty treat their animals kindly and disturb them as litt’e as possible. The test on the dairy breed was even more favorable than on the beef. The cows fed on hay, roots and corn fell off in their milk right slong, while the cows fed on succulent en- silage along with cornmeal kept up the fllw of milk all winter. After pointing out the suitability of the Island for fruit yrowing, he advised the meeting to fora © Dairymen’s Association for the Province.
