The Globe copted the charges m«de by the Chronicle, commented upon them, and at once accepted them as true. But had it the decency, the manhood, to pub« lish one word of Dr. Tupper‘s reply ? No! organ than he can expect. * How different are the reports given by the Globe‘s antiâ€"union confrers and coâ€" worker as to the condition of affairs in Nova Scotia, to those v&mpw‘ by the Union journals The former are always prating of "ruin and decay," they never abstain from haviog an ill natured hit at the youple of Ontario and Quebec 'WMWQMMNO never tired of enlarging on the evil effects of Confederation, or of striving to cause a feeling of discontent among the people 0f Nova Scotia.

The skin is everyâ€" where, even over the figures, smooth and supple, and, moreover, freely transpires. The figures and characters may be analyzed into gingle blue or red points, of about the size of a pin‘s head, in the centre of each of which is a whitish, scarâ€"like pit.
