We have always imagined that the grits of the lirst distriet, were, in point of intelligence, rather above the average Indeed the puzzle has been, how men so wide awake and capable—as they are con- cerning other matters could be a0 preju- diced and blind as they have repeatedly proved themselves to be in respect to pol i- tics. But it now appears that (intheupinion of the leaders oftheir party) there is not & man among them fit to be a caadidate on behalf of the Peter’s Combination ; for the Patriot is pleased to announce the selection the lost the of their claas. of an outsider,—a lawyer for Charlotte- town. Well, we shal! see what ase the far- mers and merchants of New London and Crapaud have for Mr. A. B. Warburton. Mr. Warburton was, if we mistake not, the gentleman to whom Mr. Sutherland, on his departure from the Island, confided his Jet- ter of resignation, addressed to Mr. Speak- er Blake,—the gentleman, who,at the behest of his party,{neverffdelivered the letter and would have left the district unrepresented at this year’s session of the Legislature but fer the unexpected turn which the course of politics in this Province has tak- en. The people of New London and Cra- paud may, of course, condone the act by which their electoral rights would have been outraged. They may not bring out a local candidate to represent their local interests in the local legislature. We shall They may, of course, elect Mr. A. B. Warburton by acclamation. In this event, the pleasure of the Patriot and the Premier who occupies ‘‘a high position in society” will, of course, be great. There will be one countryman ‘‘clodhopper” the less to come between the wind and their nobility, sve. OO eee ——— Sex in Education. A discussion of the results of some school examinations, 1891, in England, throws some light ou the quéstion of the relative cz pacity of girls and boys for acquiring such knowledge as is imparted in schools. The examinations were in 135 schools in all parts of the country, and the number of pupils examined was about 10,000, consisting of girls and boys in about equal proportions. The percentage of boys and of girls who passed in the Ist, 2ad, and sed class, respectively, was as follows ; Girls. soya. We OO ge ove ata 55 56 Second class... 6) 42 TN, 6 kc oc ce ony en 76 Taus it appears that in the studies of the 3rd elavs the girls and boys stand exactly equal, that ia the 2ad class the girls were 50 per cent. more proficient than the boys, and that in the Ist class they were nearly as proficient. The examiners attribute the great superiority of the girls in the 2nd class to the fact that in that class particular stress is laid on the study of foreign langnages, and on geography and history. The distinctive studies of the 3rd class are Latin and mathematics; that the girls are exactly the equals of the boys io these two branches, particularly mathematics, is an interesting fact. Another important point developed by these examinations is, that they serve to determine in some degree the relative capacities of men and women as teachers. Asin England girls are taught chiefly by women and boys by men, the table shows that, except in the ‘ humanistic” studies—those of the 2ad class, in which the superiority of the girls may be due in part to superior instruction—there is no difference perceptible between men and women as in- structors. The examiners say that the per- centages of 1891 do not ditfer markedly from those of other years. Boston Markets. Bostox, May }.

St —_—— ~ Service and Interment at St. Peter's ee niversal Maniiestation Veneration and Regret. Atsix oclock on §S sturday evening the remains of the dead prelate were removed from the grand salon of the Palace, where hundreds had been flocking te view them ever since their arrival, to the Cathedral, where they Jay in state until the funeral on the following day. The Bishop and clergy, in ecclesiastical attire, accompanied the casket in procession, singing the psalms prescribed by the ritual of the chureh. Ar- rived at the cathedral, the cottin was placed on a ecstafaique surrounded by blazing tapers, and the clergy entered the sanctu- ary and ehanted solemn Matins and Lauds cf thedead. The church was heavily draped in black. When the offices closed, the dead bishop laid in state in the main aisle, where thousands viewed the remains, and kept all night their sad vigil. On Sunday morning all the clergy of the diocese offered the Holy Sacrifice for the dead prelate trom the Cathedral altars and in the chapels of the various religious com- munities. At 10 o'clock, sharp, the Pon- tifical Requiem was commenced at the Cathedral, Bishop Cameron officiating, with Mgr. Gillisas Arch Priest; Fathers D yle and Boudreault, Dexeons of Honor; Fathers Dugald McDonald and Mecelntyre, Deacons of Office; Father McAulay, Master of Ceremonies; Father John A. McDonald, Censer-Bearer, and Fathers Walker and Stephen Phelan as Acolytes. The Bishop of Charlottetown was assisted at the throne by Fathers William Phelan and Gregory McDonald. The Chaplain to the Bishop of St. John was Father McLellan; te the Bishop of Chatham, Father Knight. The Choir, under Professor Blanchard and strengthened from the ranks of the elergy, produced the best of music. St. Danstan’s was packed to the portals. After the Mass, Bishop Rogers, of Chat- ham, was conducted to the pulpit, and feelingly delivered the fuaeral sermon. It was in substance as follows : finished As to ** [ have fought a good fight, I have my course, | have kept the faith, jastiee, which the Lord the just Judge will render to me and to sll who love His eom- foe eke ae ¥, 7a i eS Eee ing. 3h Fem. £V,' 76 11 must bespeak the kind indulge: My Lords, Rev. brethren of the Clergy, and dearly beloved brethren of the Laity : Thus wrote the great apostle of the Gen- tiles, St. Paul, a little before his death, addressing the young Bishop Timothy, on | whom he had imposed hands. That apos- | tle also expressed hia desire to be dissolved | and to be with Christ. He felt his last end coming ; he recogniz2d that much good had been done through his ministry; but iu! the spirit of humility he spoke of himseif. as the least of all the apostles, as one born out of time ; that whatever good was ac- complished through his labors, was owing to the gratuitous grace of God, who merci- fully corrected his mistaken zeal, and turned him from being a persecutor of | christians into an apostle to carry His name among the Gentiles, But St. Paul did not resist the light and graee of God ; | he humbly and fervently corresponded to | it. Thus, he said, by the grace of God I} am what I am. I. willingly labored and} effected much in the good cause, yet not 1. but the grace of God working in me.

Even in the circum: | stances of his death we see the same be- | nign justice of God rewarding his good intentions by the realization of his every juat and charitable wish. Feeling the end coming he planned for obtaining a worthy successor in his office as Bishop. | His wishes were realized. He wished to | visit old dear friends and colleagues after! the long winter. Me crossed to Antigonish, ' and also intended to visit Tracadie, to make in the Trappist Monastery there his spirit- ual retreat, as his immediate “preparation for death. But God accepted the will for the deed, and promptly called off his faith- ful shepherd from his bereaved flock, from his worthy priests and people, neighbors’ and friends, to enjoy his crown. He died, I might ssy, in the arms of his beloved brother Bishop and compatriot, Bishop Cameron and the clergy of his household, and of his own trusted Vicar General and’ travelling companion Monsignor James McDonald. Farewell then, Beloved Brother and Friend! From your coffin there before us you seem to address to us your last adieu !

The young Bishdp-elect in the spirit of humility and modesty, felt the burden too heavy for him, though acquies- cing in the spirit of obedience. There, from your silent bier, you address to him your last advice to have courage and to confide in God’s paternal protection.

Thousands followed the funeral cortege to the station, and besides the prelatesand clergy, the first train carried three and the second four hundred pas- sengers to St. Peter’s Bay. Prominent men in all the walks of our Provincial life, Protestant and Catholic, vied with each other in doing honor and reverence to the memory of the dead prelate.

Thus with God’s help all things are possible to the earnest labor- er; but without God we can do nothing. St. Augustine says, thas God who created us without cur own consent, will not save us without our own consent. He wishes us to exercise the great faculties of intellect and will to know His truth—His divine revelation—and thus knowing it, to willingly do it, not by con- straint or through necessity, but intelli- gently and freely. St. Peter also teaches us the efficacy of God's grace when we work in obedience to it. The apostles had been fishing all night and caught nothing, Christ appears walking on the beach. He tells them to cast their net on the other side of the boat, They do so, and a miraculous abundance of fine fish fills their nets— showing the importance of obedience to aud correspondence with God’s word. It was this response of St. Peter to our Lord, ‘‘In verbo tuo Jaxabo rete—At Thy word I will let down the net,” that Bishop Mo- latyre chose as the motto or legend of his episcopal seal when he was consecrated Bishop. In this spirit of obedience to God's word —of seeking in all things to find out and to do God’s will—he accepted the episcopal charge and labored during the whole of his pastorate. —‘t In yerBo Tvo LAXABO, RETE”’—at thy word I will cast the net on the other side of the boat, although in the same water in which we have hitherto labored in vain; and God blessed his willing and prompt obedience by the most abund- ant success in all his episcopal administra- tion, Bishop McIntyre was born cu the 29th June, 1818, the feast of the two great Apostles, and in his life and labors he imi- tated their example and illustrated their apostolic teaching in the above-cited pas- sages of God's Holy Word,—he tought the good fight, he kept the fuith, he finished his course, and has now gone to receive the Crown of Justice from the Just Judge, In every stage of life, from the first dawn of reason till bis death, he was ever faithful and true to duty, ever cheerful, showing a willing obedience to God, his Creator, and a kindly, brotherly love for his fellow men, as the will of God requires. The saintly Bishop McEachern often visited and celebrated Mass in his father’s house. The little boy, Peter McIntyre, listened st- tentively aud eagerly tothe grace of voca- tion, and was one of the first to enter St. Andrew's College in order to begin a pre- labors, j Sending forth His Disciples to preach the Gospel He said to them; **When you stand before kings and presidents do not consider what or how you shall speak for in that hour it will be given you how and what to say.” Therelore, have courage.

To your episcopal colleagues you ad- dress Farewell. You thank Bishop Cameron for now chanting your Solemn Requiem Maas, as you were enjoying his fraternal hospitality when death summoned you into God’s presence.
