For some time past a certain portion of the Grit press has been advocating 4 scheme of commercial union, which scheme really means nothing more or less than the sever- ance of Canada from the Mother Country and her annexation to the neighboring Re- Prominent among the advocates of is the Toronto } public his unpatriotic measure (ilob However, that journal, which, for reasons that could easily be seen through, for some time past made a pretence of not being prepared to go so far mm that direc- on -as some of its less influential allies, has now thrown aside the mask it has worn so long and with s ttle effect, and has come | squarely in favor of severing Mother Coun- out lairiy an id us to the the ties that hn try And the manner in which it makes known its wishes is not at all caleulated to raise the leading organ of the Grit parcy « f i ) ves ~oite the Domiaiou in the estunatiwn of patriotic Canadians. In taking advantage of an op- portunity afforded it of giving approval to a recent utterance of Sir Edward A rnold upon the friendship that should exist be- tween the two branches of the Anglo-Saxoa race, our contemporary makes a terrific onslaught apon the Mother Country, and in the same breath belittles the Dominion with a zeal worthy of a better cause. At the same time it admits that the Ameri- cans are willfully aggressive and dishonest Canada, from draws the in their relations with which latter exceedingly logical deduction that our only behaviour admission it refuge from such unneighborly is in complete surrender to the country meting out the dishonest treatment ! But it is mainly to what the Globe has to say about the severance of Canada from the Mother Couatry that we wish to draw attention to-day. And we cannot do 80 more effectually than by reproducing the words of ourcontemporary. The language it uses is about as elegant as the scheme worthy of Both are characteristic of it fosters and advucates is commendation. the sources from which they emanate. Here are the Globe's own words : ** For cwenty-four years past, ever since the end of the civil war, Canada has been in the position of a little Loy whose arms and legs are held, and whose mouth is closed by his big brother whenever another big bey wishes to rob the lictle chap of his marbles. If the small bey were allowed the use of his voice, he could probably make terms with his big assailant; if he were allowed the use of his arms and legs, he might at least scratch and kick in his own defence. To make the meta- plior quite accurate, one must premise that the big boy who demands the marbles has ue animosity against their small owner, bait simply wishes to show him the folly of his childish expectation of aid from his big brother.” What a gross misrepresentation of the ' But, continues the Globe,— lacts ‘‘Cousin Jonathan, in fact, likes Johnny Canuck very well, and would agree with him finely if ‘the young ‘un’ were not always boasting ef his connection with and expecting defence from John Bull. This irresistibly tempts Jonathan to make monstrous claims on dJohnay Canuck, becanse ‘it is so comical’ to see Joun Bull interpose and, instead of stand- ing by little Johnny, order him to submit humbly for the sake of preserving the peace hetween Jonathan and John.” Commenting upon the foregving un- patriotic and altogether uncalled-for re- marks of the Globe, the Empire says :— “Without pausing toconsider what degree of truth there may be in this graphic sketch, ve may point out that the Grit organ’s ad- -ice is that the inoffeasive and bullied child to its assailant in the brutal friend will then ms \ ne Nad led ove ype that the Glohe’s desist from wronging it in order to spite its pirent.

What do Liberals of the old school think of this unpatriotic declaration in favor ot in- dependence and the reasons given for it by | their old organ’ They may observe that the independence claimed is solely in regard to the British Empire,and is coupled by the (lobe with subservience to the United States.” a vreatel Statea What have the patriotic members of the Liberal party to say to this rank dislvyalty on the part of their leading newspaper / Will they tamely submit to it?)

Late advices from France lead us to suppose that contidence in the Republic's being able to hold its own against the onslaughts of Boulangism is not so strong just now as it was a few weeks ago. Politicians whose judgment and sources of information are must reliable, are already beginning to hedge in their estimates. | Trey no longer fesl sure that Boulan ven has been Wiped out. ry | . There ss lately been an unfortunate q’arrel iusi’e the cabinet be'ween the Premier, M. Tirard, and the Minister of \ the Interior, M. Coustaus, which vaatly encourages tho enemies of the republic. M. Constans had t ‘us Had started out to organize the whole immense civil service of Frauce for the official candidates, He had no ‘HE DAIL -_ | ecruples whatever about gagging and paralyzing the opposition by any and all the means in his power. As the crowning capstone to his system of muzzling the priests, editing the list of opposition nominees, and utilizing the entire Govern- mental machinery both before and after the ballots had been cast, he announced that Boulanger and Rochefort could not be candidates, and that no votes cast for them would be counted and al! their placards would be pulled down by the police. Upon this there was a great how] raised as to the legality of such a decree. This frightened M. Tirard, who at the best is not an over- bold He had a number of stormy scenes with M. Constans and with M.

M. Coustans has tendered his resignation, but thus far M. Carnot has been able to keep him from insisting on its aceeptance, Thus the political pot is kept boiling. Provincial Synod. The synod of the ecclesiastical province of the Church of Eng!and in Canada, open- ed at Montreal, on Wednesday morning, the llth inst., with a choral service in the cathedral, At half-past ten the great west door was opened, and there entered a_pro- cession of vergers, choristers, lay clerks and clergy of ‘the cathedral preceding a chaplain bearing aloft the pastoral staff, and followed by the Bishops of the _ pro- vince and visiting bishops, attended by their chaplains. Then came the clerical delegates in robes, and Jastly the lay dele- gates in ordinary civilian attire. The Most Reverend the Metropolitan was absent. After the processional hymn, The Church’s One Fouudation, the Litany was sung by the Bishop of Niagara, and was followed by the anthem, If Ye Love Me. The Bishop of Toronto said the ante-com- munion service, and the sermon was preached by his Lordship Bishop Court- ney, from the text, Acts XV 5. A business session was held in the after- neon in St. George’s schoolroom. The of- heers of the synod are as follows: Rev. John Pearson, of Toronio, secretary of the house of bishops; Rev. John Langtry, hon. clerical secretary of the lower house; Very Rev. R. W. Norman, D.C. L., dean of (Juebec, hon. clerical secretary of the lower house; L. H. Davidson, D. C. L., Q C., Montreal, hon. secretary of the lower house; A. F. Gault, Montreal, treasurer; Charles Garth and T. P. Butler, Q. C., D. C. L., Montreal, auditors. A delegation from the Episcopal Church of the United States was present. The Bishops of Quebec and Ontario were not present at the opening of the synod, but | were expected to arrive on the following | day. Two largely-signed memorials were re- ceived from the Diocesan Synods of Ontario and Montreal, asking for action to be taken to have the Jesuit estate legislation re- pealed. felegraphic Odds and Ends.

Sim,—lé is said that while on his fare- well tour through the Maritime Provinces, Commissioner Coombs, in an underhand and cowardly manner, circulated among his friends copies of a document said to have been signed by me. At present there is no chance for me to reply, Commissioner Coombs’ nor any other Salvatiouist’s name not be attached to the letter ; but if the Salvation Army will become responsible for it by it’s publication inthe Wry Cry, stat- ing their reasons fer so doing, then I will deal with the subject, which will embrace & wider scope than they at present sup- pose, and among other things to call forth the proofs that the Army practically teaches the doctrine that ‘the end justifies the ineans.” Ernest H. Gover. S’side, Sept. 12, 1889. Watering the Streets. Sir,—Some time since | expressed the opinion, giving reason therefor, that the drinking fountain on Queen Squareshould be placed at or near the site of the pump op- posite Mr. Brace’s shop. | will now venture a further suggestion to the City fathers and Water Commissioners. The streets could be readily watered in the most effective manner by attaching « hose to each of the hydrants all over the city and using it for watering purposes every day when neces- sary. In the city of Glasgow (and else- where) a hose is permanently attached to each hydrant and kept coiled up below an an iron grating or cover beside the hydrant. The cover is locked down and the key kept by a policeman, who, at the proper time every day unlocks it, takes out the hose, and waters the street in the vicinity, after- wards returning the hose to its place. Thus the whole city is watered every day by the policemen. Now our policemen in Char- lottetown are certainly not harder worked than their brethren in Glasgow and would be glad, no doubt, to aid in promoting the comfort Sand health of our citizens. It would not be necessary, perhaps, to water every street in our city, but the dust should certainly be kept down on our prin- cipal thoroughfares. A number of short hose might be used, and if the hydrants are too far apart their number might be increased or the hose could be attached to private houses. Crrizen. Sept. 13, 1889. Notes From Georgetown. Your editorial on postal facilities finds a hearty echo here, and it is hoped you will press for reform until buildings are up in all the yillages named. The county towns of Prince and Queen’s have handsome post offices. Why is the County capital of King’s slighted? There is this special reason for a new building here, and that immediately : The mails of the whole pro- yince pass through this port in winter, and the risk run by leaving all money and business letters for the Island in a wooden building over night, as is frequently done, should be considered. Another reform the eastern end of this Island requires, and must have, is a postal clerk on the railway. Why;in the world are these disagreeable discriminations made? Away up to Tignish this clerk is at work, and through Queen’s, but this County doesn’t seem to deserve such dis- patch in forwarding mails, If it’s behind, this is one way to help it on. Isn’t it ab- surd toe write a letter to Cardigan or Mon- tague, 6 miles away, and have to wait un- ‘til it travels to Charlottetown and back to these villages before it cau be delivered, and then a reply must go back over the same course ? Isn’t it too late iu the day to allow this to continue ? A very nice court house. is built here. It’s surroundings present a sorry spectacle. A man was paid to sow seed and plant a few trees, He did so, and the grass grew and the trees started into new life. The necessity for a fence to protect the grass and trees was pointed out at the time through your columns—a necessity any person with half an eye could have seen. How is it now? The trees are broken by cows running away from children on their way to pasture. Sheep laid on the grass and nibbled it away as it grew. The cost of grass and trees is stupid waste, for want of five minutes thought and push enough to put a fence up. Promises for the re- moval of encumberances adjoing the Court house have been made. This is « gentle re- minder. Mr. Editor, the foregoing may smack of growling. It is growling, perhaps, but at what’s wrong ; and the object isto get fair play for King’s County and have things, oa they are done, well and decently one. The Town Assessors have had quite an extent of plank sidewalking placed down and deserve praise for their enterprise. The writer picked strawberry blossoms yesterday. The regatta on Tuesday in the harbor was a success, though there was scarcely wind sufficient to make it exciting. Georgetown, Sep. 12, 1889.

IPVHERE having been several false reports in circulation as to the cause of my leav- ing the Salvation Army, and having been re- quested to give to the public the true cause of my separation from them, I have done so in a little book entitled, ‘‘The Doctrines of the Salvation Army and the Bible compared, or why I left the Salvation Army.” This little book goes to show that the Sal- vation Army, like Israel of old, in ‘going about to establish their own righteousvess, and not submitiing themselves to the right- eousness of God” (Rom. 10, 3), have in reality missed salvation in spite of all their zeal aad professed holiness. In this little book we have given the opin- ions of such men as Luther, Meiancthon, Cal- vin, Tyndale, Bunyan, Wesley, Chalmers, McCheyne, Bonar and some others, whw ail coincife in denouncing the teachings of the Salvation Army omthe doctrine of Justifiea- tion, and agree in upholding the doctrine of justilication by imputed righteousness, the doctrine that Mrs. Booth terms ‘‘a cheat of the devil,” and which the General also de- uounces in the strongest terms. This tittle book shows that, ou the dectrine of Sanctification, tne reasoning of General #ooth and his votaries is of the most fallacious and ridiculous kind, and veid even vt common sense itself. ‘They even admit that itis aot possible for man to keep God’s perfect law and yet maintain that he can live without sin, Such nonsense! when God's Word tells us plainly that ‘‘Sin is the transgression of the } law” (lst John, 3-4.) In addition to the two chapters on ‘* Justi- fication” and ‘‘ Sanctification,’ there is a short chapter on each of the following sub- jects, viz., ‘“The Lord’s Supper,” ** Baptism,” ** Silver Collections " and ‘* Swearing in Sol- diers,” each of which goes to show that the Salvation Army, instead of taking God's Word as their guide, have followed the whims and fancies of their arrogant and self-conceit- ed leader, who in reality sets himself up to be higher authority than God’s Word, and who takes upon himselt to dictate to the world what commands of the Lord Jesus aie binding and what ones obsolete. The doctrinal ersors of the Salvation Army are more banefui and soul-destroying than its tiuancial errors can possibly be, hence we have enlarged on the subject of ‘* Justifica- tion,” and have tried to show the public the fearful effects of mixing up works with salva- tion, even in the smaliest degree. We feel assured that an impartial and in- telligent public, by reading this book will be convinced that we have been charged with mo- tives for leaving the Salvation Army, that we never for a moment entertaimed. In this re- spect we share the saine fate as vther ex-Salva- tionists, With the tirm ‘conviction will prevail, and with a fervent desire to communicate to others the joy that we have been mede partakers of, and wishing to tear down a system of re- ligion that is only deceiving and deluding moriais, and building them up in an unholi- ness of the darkest and most hateful kind in the sight of God, we present this little book to the public, praying that to them it may be a lasting benediction.
