OCT. 6. 1887 NOTE AND COMMENT. • â€" ^Upwards of ninety millions of young fish of every variety taken from the Dominion hatcheries have been placed in the lakes and streames dur- ing the past season. â€" Mr. White, Minister of Interior, assumed the position of iSuperinten- -dent-General of Indian Affairs on Monday last, resigned by Sir John Macdonald. â€" Toronto's assessment for 1888 amounts to $98,297,901, an increase of $14,741,090 over 1887. The pop- ulation is 126,169, an increase of 7.- .766. â€" Judgement was delivered in Win- nipeg Tuesday on the Browning injunction against the Biver Yalley railway, the decision being in favor of the province. â€" Messrs David Greigh ton, M. P. P., and Bobt Birmingham, the two gentlemen who are canvassing the Province ii^the interest of the new| Con- servative organ, the Empire, report subscribed $150,000, or three-fourth of the capital stock necessary. When $200,000 has been subrcribed the paper will be issued. â€" The inquest on the body orThos. Campbell, who was drowned thro ugh the ferry boat coUision in Toronto bay, was concluded last Monday night, when the jury returned a terdict that Campbell's death was caused by the negligence of Oapt. Martin, of the Sadie, and a warreut was issued for his arrest. â€" At the age of Sixty-Eight, after fifty years of public service, the Queen is a wonderfully strong and energetic woman if she really does purpose visiting India and has begun the study of an Asiatic language. If she goes t o India she might as well take Australia and Canada on her way heme. The Canadian Pacific Bailway would put its best foot forward in earnest if it were given the chance of conveying the Queen across the continent. How "very, very high" she would live. teaehw is bind for bMd taaeher the aflBistant has not yet hem •ngaged. Manie^al macUers are quiet, bat from wfaftt little talk I bear I feel instifiedin layizig thi^ the preeeat council will get opposition. It is thought that some of diem should be satisfied to let some younger men try the business for a little who would show a little more energy in their public business. Rocklyn. (From an oeeasional correspondent.) The first picnic and anniversary of Providence ChnrchjSundayjSchool took place on Thursday last. A large number old and young-turned ouij. At noon all repaired to 'le church where an abundant supply of eatables were provided by the ladies, and when full justice was done in supplying the inner man. The ladies deserve special mention for the excellence of their department. After refreshments the superintendent, Mr. Thos. McAfee, took the chair, the Secretary read a flattering report of the school. Bead- iugs, and Becitationu were sriven by the School children. Mr. Morwood, J. E. Bichards of Bocklyn, Mr. E. E. Hicks and the pastor Mi*. Hosking gave brief addresses. All passed off very successfully. Milwl Holland Ceatre AiTie«lt"n^ Socfetj. The morning of the 28th nit., like many of its predecessors and suooass- ors, a holo'gauze of sombre tint that formed a fine back ground to the fair, sparkling forms of angelic female beauty Uiat flitted hither and thith- er around the Agricultural Show Grounds at Holland Centre on Show- day. The new grounds are situated at the south-west end of the village, and yet in a primitive state, but the energy of the Society in the past gives promise of much improvement ere the lapse of another year. Draught horses were not numerous in quantity, but the quality made up for the deficiency of entries. General purpose class was more numerously represented, and justifies the assertion that Holland stands A 1 as a horse- breedmg Township.â€" The two-year- olds, yearlings and spring colts bear testimony that the Holland farmers are alive to the importance of horse- stocK. Horned stock, sheep and swine were not exhibited in great variety of num- bers, but the quaJity was very good. Our townsman Mr. B. Coleman was a successful competitor ;n choice Poultry, as well as Mr. B. Freeborn of Holland. Amongst the judges in the Stock Department we were well pleased to note the genial yisage of our towns- man. Mr. D. McDuffie, whose matur- ed knowledge of stock eminemtly qualifies him for the position. In thb Hall. The female equiestrsnneswheelibus was the grand attraction of the day. Here was the somber matron, with the severe steadfastness of her Boman ancestor, pitted against the gazelle- eyed, peach-blossomed cheek of the buxon belle with a jaunty hat and winning demeanour, where deficienc • ies dwindle to nothing in the noon- day glare of admiration The exhibits in this department would puzzle the descriptive powers of a London or Parisian artistic while the substan- tial woolen fabrics shows that the house wives of the present day are fully equal to the economy of their grandmothers. In the Dairy Depart- ment the samples of products would compaie favorably with any similar Show IB the Dominion. The "male sex" appeared to be determined to not be out done by their Eve sieters, by producmg the finest epecemens of Boots, Fruits and Seed Grain that have yet been produced at any Show in our County, â€" May such go on, and prosper. Deliaquent Subscnbera. Kimberiey. From our ovn Gorrespondevt. A mineral prospector hailing from iiear Ottawa, inspected the rock and mountain from Eugenia to below Kimbsrley recently and said that he' had found a silver and lead mine on Ml-. Bath's farm near Eimberley in paying quantities. He said he .had nut capital to work it bu^^onld get parties that would open ilmf. He has not returned yet and as this was some tome ago we are beginning to despair of his coming back. More than the usual quantity of f^U wheat has been sown herd this fall 'owing to the good tarn out of last years crop. Mr. David Longhead, a farmor living near Kimberley, died last Thursday; lie had been in pour health for some years he leaves a family of (nrpbans ins wife having cbed two or three ^^ars Jig). „- Our pchool population has ibereas- "i 1 toaboot tSO.

The Archbishop will accept the hearty thanks of all country noWbpapers, and it is to be hoped his words will have effect St. Michael's Palaob, Toronto. Sept., 8, '87, To the Editor of Catholic Weekly Beviete. Sm, â€" 1 have been often pained and astonished *• the frequent appeals of editois and proprietors of newspapers their subscribers, urging them to to pay their just debts. Catholics at least cannot be unaware of their ob- ligations in this matter, and that ab- solution to a penitent heartily sorry for his sins does not «free him fiom the obligations of paying his debts. The atonement for oblivion of justice in this world will certainly be exacted in the next^ The editors and proprie- tors of newspapers on their part, give their time, the product of a high education and experience, togethier with their m»ney for stationery, print- ing and wages to employees, and they expect and should have, in common justice, a return, often by no means adequate, for their outlay. A man who will not pay for a paper he sab- scnbed for, read, and whose contents he enjoyed, is a retainer of another man's goods and is on a level with a thief.
