The diflerent views thrown on the canvas. illustrated very clear- ly many thingsiu a few seconds that would severely tax the descriptive powers to pourtray without the aid of the stereopticon. Many of the differ- ent kinds of vegetable growth were shown, as well as the different types of humanity to be found on. the island. ._ Great advancement has been made in the social condition of the people through missionary efiort. Churches have been established and a gradual development in civizilation is becoming more and more apparent as the years pass by. Mr. Young is not afistranger here and his visits are always looked forward to with pleas- ure. On Saturday evening the lime light illustrations of the great Mam-.- moth Cave were givenjoa fairly well tilled house. On his previous visit the apparatus refused to act and he had to.give the lecture without the illustrations.

The scheme on hand now and for which large amount of the money is..subs scribed, is no less a project than; the building ofa skating rink on the cor- nor of Mr Thomas Banks’ Lot.

Edith McKenzie returned from visiting friends in Mt. and a just one, and in this can tho Conservatives voted with the Po- trons, not us with the Consorvotivos.

Your: respectfully, Dunn Mchnon. The political meetings of .Dr. Jam- ieson are creating interest in every part of the constituency, but for the next two weeks there must be no re- laxation of energy: The Patrons. and Liberals as well, claim that they are gaining ground. According to the figures of a prominent Patron he has Mr. MeNichol elected by nearly two hundred of “a majority, and has given us figures. 0! course the elec- tion will not go by default but will be a mere matter of fd-inality. We have the figures and will be able to estimate his “ prophetical sagacity ” about the second of March.
