As announced in our last issue, the Reverend Dugald M. Macdonald, Pastor of the Church of SS. Simon and Jude, Tignish, celebrated yesterday the Silver Jubilee of his ordination to the Priesthood. fhe pretty little village of Tignish had from early morn, as might be expected, put on its gala day appearance, while the villagers, in holiday attire, joy beaming in ' told the passer-by, every countenance, enquiring the cause of th's gencral sort‘e, ‘+ ("est la fete de Monsiews le Cure ! and hastened on to take part in the religi- ous services at the Parish Church. And the feast of the Cure it really was, right enthusiastically celebrated. \{ devoted and grateful people beheld in the good priest whose feast they were honoring with such an amount of good cheer, the father and friend who had labor- ed with them and for them during a quar- ter of a century, pointing out to them their duty to God and their neighbor, and en- couraging them by word and example to ad- vance in the social scale pace by pace with their more pushing neighbors of English extraction. To even the casual observer of yesterday's demonstration, it was evident that Father Dugald holds that which many 1mighty ruler sighed for—a first place in the affections of his people. By the express train which reached Tig- nish at noon on ‘Tuesday, His Lordship tishop MelIntyre, Very Rev. James Me- Donald, Revs. Angus McDonald, P. Doyle, D. F. MeDonald, James A. McDonald, R. P. McPhee, Gregory McDonald, Allan McDonald, 8. Boudreault, N. Boudreault, J. Chaisson and A. J. Melntyre, were pas- sengers. The Revs. F. VanBlerk, (4. Picotte and S. T. Phelan shortly after irrived and joined the Bishop and party it the Presbytery, where all remained until 8 o'clock in the evening, when a rrand concert, under the direction of the ladies of the Tignish Convent was given in St. Mary’s Hall. This concert was thoroughly enjoyed, the programme being me of rare merit, carried out without a hitch. The ecclesiastical part of the celebration commenced yesterday morning with Solemn High Mass, the Rev. Father Dugald him- self celebrating. The Revs. D. F. Me- Donald and J. A®. McDonald, classmates of Father Dugald, officiated as deacon and sub-deacon respectively. Father McIntyre directed the ceremonies. After the first gospel the Rev. P. Doyle delivered a_ ser- mon in English, and the Rev. G. A. Picotte a seeond one in French, Both were learned and eloquent tributes. After High Mass,French and English ad- dresses were presented to the Rev. Father Dugald to which he made feeling and suit- ible replies. Then the dinner—a sumptuous repast, calculated to draw ad- miration from the most exacting epicurian a repast thoroughly enjoyed by the large number of guests who surrounded the fes- tive board. Father Dugald was the recipient of many beautiful pieces of silver service. came The Rev. Dugald McDonald is a son of John and Mary McDonald, of St. Andrew's Parish, where he was born on the 18th July, 1838. He was ordained priest in November, 1861, after having spent several years at the Grand Seminary, Québec, and was immediately named assistant priest in the large and important mission of Tignish. Two years later he was transferred to the Chureh of St. Columba, East Point, where he labored for 4 years whence hefwas re-called te assume charge of the parish he holds to- day. Father Dugald has built a spacious parochial residence, in good keeping with the stately church erected by His Lordship Bishop McIntyre when parish priest of Tignish. He has also erected a church in the adjoining mission of St. Thomas, Palmer Road. Father Dugald is deservedly loved and respected by all classes and creeds in the community—and, in common with his many friends, THE EXAMINER hopes to be able to participate in the festivities attendant upon the cele- bration of his golden jubilee. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, Mr. L. H. Another Letter from Davies, M. P. Sirx,—-The crushing defeat inflicted upon the Local Government by the Legislative Council electors at the late election seems to have driven Mr. Donald Ferguson fran- tic. In another letter published by you yes- terd y, he, in the face of my positive de- nials, repeats the untruthful charges made against me in his first letter, and as is his wont, indulges in personal abuse of his opponent. “i [decline to enter upon any scolding match with him.

With characteristic unfairness, he entirely distorts my remarks about the representa- tion of King’s County.

This, | contended, would be unfair and unjust. My proposition was calculated to rectify the injustice, and, I feel sure, will commend itself to every thoughful mind as well worthy of favorable consideration. Mr. Ferguson endeavors tv draw an analogy between his attempt to bribe Mr. Annear and the offer of the Davies Govern- ment in 1878 to their Roman Catholic friends te accept a share in the government country. Everyone acknowledged and felt that a purely Protestant Govern- ment was undesirable. The offer of a seat in the Government to Mr. Conroy. and others, after the final settlement of the School question, was a fair and honest uttimgt UU rave wll rufitabhy tetelis be robbs of the anne — ee sentation at the Council Board. It asked | nothing dishonorable from anyone, but on the contrary was contingent upon Mr, Con- roy’s action receiving the approval of his constituents at the polls. The moral obliquity which can see any analogy be- tween such a case and the alleged attempt to bribe Mr. Annear to vote to change the constitution of the country, without con- sulting his constituents, does not surprise me; but to argue with a person athlicted with it is clearly a waste of time.
